The guards of King Pingnan were not vegetarians either. The two sides confronted each other, and the scene was thrilling for a while.
The guards on both sides were equally skilled in martial arts, but Li Yunze was so powerful that he gained the upper hand in a short while.
He suddenly saw a large army approaching in the distance, and guessed that this should be the reason for King Pingnan's arrogance just now, and it should also be his last retreat.
Li Yunze knew that if these large armies joined, the manpower gap between the two sides would be huge.
Even if their side wins in the end, the casualties will probably be considerable.
Seeing those armies getting closer and closer, Li Yunze defeated the leader of the guards who fought with him in two moves.
With a slight click of his feet, he flew behind King Pingnan, and the sword in his hand was placed on his neck.
Then he tapped his acupuncture points and took him to fly up the city wall.
Even before King Pingnan could react, he was kidnapped.
Looking at the men arriving, he felt very unwilling.
Just a little bit, just a little bit, he was sure to defeat the little emperor.
He regretted very much. If he had known that Magistrate Du was so useless, he would have asked Qian Mo to ambush him at the foot of the mountain.
But now it's too late to think about anything, everyone else has fallen into Li Yun's hands.
Judging from the cruelty of this little emperor, I'm afraid he won't let him go easily.
When the guards of King Pingnan saw that the prince had fallen into the hands of the enemy and their leader had been killed, they were immediately confused.
Yan Er saw the opportunity and led his men to launch a fierce attack.
A few smart ones knew that the situation was over, so they found an opportunity to run away secretly.
Yan Er did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, and waited for the enemy army to arrive.
He and his men killed the remaining guards and immediately flew to the city wall to protect Li Yunze.
Although King Pingnan was kidnapped, he had experienced strong winds and waves after all, and he was still calm now.
His mind was spinning rapidly, preparing to think of a way to get out of trouble.
He suddenly thought of the news he received some time ago.
The little emperor seemed to attach great importance to his new queen.
I heard that this time I went south and handed over all the affairs of the court to that woman.
Thinking about his manpower in the capital, he was ready to find an opportunity to threaten the young emperor with these.
Regardless of whether it works or not, you have to give it a try before you have a chance.
Both Li Chaoyang and Shen Erlang had discovered the approaching army.
They have three thousand cavalry troops and a hundred thousand troops.
Although they had the upper hand in the battle with the enemy just now, there were also many casualties.
It is estimated that the enemy's army this time may be about 100,000.
If they go head-to-head, it will definitely be a bloody battle.
At this moment, Li Yunze on the city wall shouted: "King Pingnan is already in my hands. No one can stop me in my determination to regain the capital, and I will definitely kill King Pingnan and Li Yunhao.
You are all my subjects, and I know that some of you are forced to follow King Ping An.
If you put down your weapons now, I will spare you once. If you insist on going your own way, your fate will be that your family will be destroyed and your wife and children will be separated. "
Cao Guang was so busy fighting just now that he didn't even pay attention to King Pingnan.
Now seeing that he had been captured by the little emperor, he felt extremely depressed.
The soldiers who were fighting also stopped, hesitating whether to surrender or continue to fight?
King Pingnan was extremely anxious and wanted to tell his men not to listen to Li Yunze and let them continue fighting.
If he wins, he may still have a chance of survival. If he surrenders now, everyone will die.
But his mute point was tapped by Li Yunze, and now he couldn't speak, so he could only look down anxiously.
Just when the soldiers were hesitant, Qian Mo suddenly shouted:
"Brothers, don't listen to him. Give me a good beating. Once we kill this pretender who usurped the throne, we will go to the Queen Mother and the Emperor to receive the award."
At this time, Li Chaoyang laughed loudly, "It's really ridiculous that you actually said that my brother is a fake.
My brother is the eldest son of the late emperor and the late empress. You are really shameless when you say these things.
My brother's enthronement as emperor is what the people want and everyone expects. Have the emperor and the queen mother you mentioned ever cared about the lives of the people over the years? In his eyes, these soldiers were just ants who worked for them.
Then when did Queen Mother Qiao and Li Yunhao take these servants into their eyes and take them into their hearts?
They left Chaozhong a mess and asked my brother and sister-in-law to clean it up for them. People who have now fled south and come to Huohuo, how can you have the nerve to say these things? "
Li Chaoyang pointed at the soldiers and said, "You ask these brothers? There are also people in several cities. Do they agree with what you say?"
After Li Chaoyang finished shouting, no one among the hundreds of thousands of soldiers spoke.
The deeds of Li Yunze and Ye Yutong have long been spread throughout the Yunchao Kingdom.
Most of them were forcibly recruited to join the army.
He has no respect for King Pingnan. If he were not afraid of him, he would have run away long ago.
They didn't dare to resist before, but now that King Pingnan and Li Yunhao have fallen, what the hell are they afraid of?
If you don't run now, when will you wait? Do we still want to rescue that bullshit prince and enslave them?
The soldiers were all muttering quietly, debating whether to leave or surrender to Li Yunze.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Cao Guang chopped off the heads of several people with a machete, and then viciously threatened, "Who dares to rebel? I will kill him immediately."
At this moment, a sharp arrow flew over with a whoosh and penetrated Cao Guang's head from the side.
Li Yunze said coldly: "You are so impatient that you actually killed my people in front of me. How can I spare you?"
He then said to the soldiers: "Those who are willing to lay down their weapons should lean against the city wall and stand in the open space."
Some soldiers listened to his words, dropped their weapons and ran over.
Some stood there motionless.
There are still a small number of people who are hesitant, fearing that Li Yunze's words will not count and he will go back on his promise.
They looked at Li Chaoyang and then at the army behind Qian Mo, wondering what choice to make.
Qian Mo looked at the traitors coldly. When he killed Li Yunze, he would not let go of any of these people who betrayed the prince.
At this time, Shen Erlang spoke, "Brothers, I am Shen Congwen, the second son of Dingbei Hou.
I can assure you that the Emperor and the Queen are both generous people and they will never go back on what they say.
You can ask my men. In the past few years, I have followed the emperor in the north and south, and the soldiers have never been treated badly.
If you die on the battlefield or become disabled, your family members can receive a generous pension, and the disabled will be given jobs and the benefits are very good. "
He looked at the hesitant soldiers and said seriously: "But the emperor is not a man without principles, and he is only given one chance.
If you don't grasp it, don't blame us for being ruthless later. When dealing with enemies, my sword is blind. "
After hearing this, those people decided to take a gamble, and they bowed their hands to Shen Erlang, "Thank you, General Shen, for the tip."
Then he put down his weapon and ran to the open space.
So far, about 40,000 to 50,000 people have surrendered.
There were another 10,000 to 20,000 people who were close followers of King Pingnan. They did not want to follow Li Yunze and ran behind Qian Mo's team with weapons.
Li Chaoyang looked at the opponent's riding posture and knew that these people must be very skilled.
He said to the several cavalry captains behind him: "I'm afraid these are all hard work. Let the brothers show their true skills to me today."
"Yes, General."
Li Chaoyang said to Shen Erlang's guard again: "Protect my second brother."
"Yes, General Lee."
Li Chaoyang took out his weapon and was the first to charge forward on horseback, "Brothers, follow me and kill these rebellious traitors."
The guards and cavalry behind him followed closely.
The bugler blew the horn.
Shen Erlang rode back and waved his hand, "Come on..."
Li Yunze observed on the city wall for a while and then ordered Yan Er.
"You lead people to watch him, and I'll go down to support Chaoyang. The leader Qian Mo and several of his men are very skilled. Chaoyang is no match for him."
"Yes, Your Majesty, please be careful."
Beijing
Ye Yutong suddenly sat up from the bed, with a thick layer of sweat on his forehead.
She clutched her pounding chest and gasped for air.
Li Wenxiu, who was sleeping on the couch next to him, heard the noise and immediately got up and asked, "Tongtong, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Ye Yutong shook his head and forced out a smile, "Mom, it's okay, I just had a dream that scared me."
Li Wenxiu held her in his arms and patted her shoulder comfortingly. "Don't worry, people say dreams are reversed. Go to sleep, mother is here to watch you."
Ye Yutong smiled and nodded, then lay down again.
"Mom, I'm fine, you should go to bed quickly."
I don’t know if it’s because of her pregnancy, but she keeps dreaming during this period and likes to have random thoughts.
Alas, I don’t know when peace will come back?
