When Liu Bozhao mounted his horse and was about to set off, a group of about three to four hundred people came head-on. The leader, with bright armor, was Jinwu Guards General Meng Silang.
"Commander, what are you doing in such a hurry? What, don't you plan to follow me into the palace to receive the reward?"
Liu Bozhao smiled and cupped his hands and said: "I am feeling unwell and dizzy. I am afraid that I will scare the Holy Emperor. I am preparing to ask for leave from His Majesty and come back another day to receive the reward."
Meng Silang stroked his beard and said with disdain: "Then what is the purpose of the commander-in-chief's men being armed and strong?"
"I have something valuable to present to His Majesty, but I forgot to pick it up. I was about to go back and get it!"
"Haha... Marshal Liu, your words are inconsistent, do you really think I am a three-year-old child?"
Liu Bozhao lowered his eyebrows slightly, with thousands of thoughts in his mind. It seemed that Wang Yan's plan had been exposed. No one could enter this palace. Meng Silang also came with bad intentions. If he forced his way in, he would not have a good chance of winning, but he continued to follow Meng Silang. If Shiro continues to use up his strength, there will only be more reinforcements later.
Liu Bozhao made a plan in his mind, quickly took out his bow and arrow, and shot at Meng Silang. Fortunately, Meng Silang had noticed it and dodged, only hitting one guard behind him.
"Kill without mercy..." Meng Silang ordered as he drew out his sword and rushed towards Liu Bozhao.
In an instant, there was a massacre outside the palace gate, and the people passing by tried to avoid it.
Meng Silang and Liu Bozhao were fighting fiercely, but he was no match for Liu Bozhao. He was defeated in a few rounds and was hit by a sword in his right arm. Liu Bozhao had no intention of fighting with him. Just when Meng Silang was in unbearable pain from being hit by the sword, he quickly turned his horse's head and led his men to fight a bloody path.
Liu Bozhao and his men were experienced warriors, how could the Jinwu Guards be their opponents? When the soldiers of Jinwu Guard saw that they had numerous casualties, even General Meng's armor was stained with blood, but Liu Bozhao's men were still unscathed, they all couldn't help but become frightened, and did not want to stop them, so they moved away while fighting, leaving Liu Bozhao and the others alone. retreat. When the people along the road saw these twenty people covered in blood and filled with murderous intent, they all fled in all directions.
Within a moment, Liu Bozhao and others retreated to the city gate, but at this time the city gate was already closed tightly, and no one was seen by the guards. Even the city tower and the guard post were empty.
The twenty-one riders stood in front of the city gate and looked at each other. They were all shocked. Even Liu Bozhao hesitated. Suddenly, the black shadows on the city tower flashed, and in an instant, all the black shadows were filled with strong and sharp archers.
"Archers, prepare..."
Following Yunxiao's order, the archers on the city tower drew their bows and nocked arrows, waiting for the order.
Liu Bozhao was shocked at first, and then ordered, "A team of five people dismounted and rushed to the city gate, while the remaining three teams covered it."
"put……"
After a hail of arrow attacks, the city gate still failed to open.
"Commander, the city gate has been locked, what should I do?"
Continuing to attack the city gate now is just a waste of energy. It is better to retreat to the city tower, set up the hook rope and then climb down. So Liu Bozhao ordered his men to raise their shields to cover, with one team at the head, five teams at the end, and the remaining teams in the middle. They all retreated to the tower in an orderly manner.
The archers on the city tower once again aimed at the rebels who boarded the city. After the order was given, there was another hail of arrows.
Within a moment, Liu Bozhao and others had climbed onto the tower. Just when everyone was secretly rejoicing, they saw the dark city below and the archers calmly guarding the outside of the city. The leader was Xun Mou, who was wearing a golden helmet and armor.
Xun Mou was surprised to see Liu Bozhao standing on the city. He suddenly felt funny. He raised the corner of his mouth and shouted: "Marshal Liu, you are very skilled!"
Liu Bozhao gritted his teeth, clenched his fist and hit the battlement hard, "Fuck..."
"Marshal Liu, if you don't leave when the city gate is wide open, how can you climb over the wall and escape?" Xun Mou's words were full of ridicule.
"General Xun, I am loyal to your Xun family, why should you treat me like this?"
"Of course my father will keep this in mind, and we are making preparations for making you the King of Han. But I didn't expect you to be so impatient."
"Then how can we withdraw my army again?"
"Didn't the decree say that now that the country has just been established, it should rest and recuperate? Has the marshal thought too much?"
Liu Bozhao snorted coldly, "Don't try to coax me, then why is the general recruiting troops at the same time? Besides, Liu Xingyuan, Lu Zuo and other thieves are raising troops to attack, but you attack me first, how can you convince the crowd?"
Xun Mou was too lazy to continue explaining to him, "I see that you have clearly shown disobedience, otherwise how could you have brought so many masters to the meeting."
"Xun Mou, if it weren't for me, Liu, your family would not be able to live in such a high position today. Forget it if you are not grateful, you still want to kill the hero in vain, and prepare to hide the bird behind the bow." Liu Bozhao scolded.
"How can a rebel be so unreasonable? It seems that you are toasting a toast instead of eating the fine wine." Xun Mou stretched out his hand and ordered, "Bring me my bow!"
Xun Mou immediately drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot two arrows at Liu Bozhao, but they were dodged by him. Just when Liu Bozhao was about to laugh at Xunmou's bad archery skills, suddenly arrows from all directions were like locusts, shooting at Liu Bozhao and others.
After a while, Liu Bozhao's men were still no match for Xun Mou's elite archers, and they were all killed by arrows. The top of the city was covered with twisted corpses. Only Liu Bozhao was left hiding behind the battlements, blocking the left and right.
"Stop..." Following the order, the archer immediately stopped shooting.
"Liu Bozhao, just surrender and capture him!" Xunmou shouted, "Since you have made great contributions to our defense of the country, I promise you to spare your life."
Liu Bozhao laughed, "Do you think I will believe you? You regard me as a thorn in your side, how can you leave me a way to survive!"
"What about your wife, children, and children? They are still sitting in my house, and your seven-year-old son is still waiting for you to return!"
Liu Bozhao, who was hiding behind the wall, looked stern, and then yelled: "Xun Mou, if you dare to attack my family, I, Liu Bozhao, will not let you go even if I am a ghost!"
"Don't worry, I won't be so unkind. I just hope that you can be reunited as a family."
"For the sake of General Xun's past achievements, I wonder if General Xun can agree to my request!"
"Feel free to speak up."
"Let me meet Wang Yan..." Liu Bozhao said calmly.
Xun Mou raised his hand, and the crowd behind him moved out of the way. In the middle, Wang Yan walked out with his head bowed.
Liu Bozhao stood on the city wall and couldn't see his face clearly, so he shouted: "Wang Yan raised his head and spoke!"
Wang Yan looked a little uneasy and looked at Xun Mou beside him, but Xun Mou held his head high and ignored him. Wang Yan then slowly raised his head, looked at Liu Bozhao on the tower, frowned and persuaded: "Marshal Liu, you'd better just go ahead and capture him..."
"Shut up!" Liu Bozhao gritted his teeth and said, "I usually treat you well, but I never thought you would betray me. Even if I, Liu, become a ghost, I will not let you go."
"It's not that I, Wang Yan, am ungrateful, but that the situation has been over for a long time. I have been captured, and they still use your wife, children, and children to coerce me. How can I be so cruel!" Wang Yan looked towards the city head with tears in his eyes.
Liu Bozhao felt ashamed for a moment. He knew that he had wrongly blamed Wang Yan. Moreover, he could not escape now. Xunmou would not bypass him. If he resisted again, his family would be hurt. So he handed over to Wang Yan and said, "Brother Wang Xian is righteous, I, Liu Bozhao, will not go around him. I have not made you a friend. Now I cannot escape death. If Brother Wang Xian can take good care of my wife, children, and children, I will have no regrets in being a cow or a horse in the next life..." After that, Liu Bozhao drew his sword and killed himself.
