The terrain there is uneven, the roads are rugged, and the high slopes look like green shepherd bags from a distance, connecting to the end of the world.
Xiu Jie led the army and chose the widest road to walk.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Xiujie ordered to set up camp and continue the march tomorrow.
Standing on a high slope, looking towards the direction of Ethiopian City, Xiu Jie said proudly to the people around him: "Look, this is the country, our continent, our world."
Hearing about our world, Li Qun'ao said with a rough smile: "Hey, hey, lord, you can't use up such a big land by yourself. When the time comes, give me a piece of land so that I can enjoy myself too."
Xiu Jie's face darkened, he glanced at Li Qun'ao, but said nothing.
When Li Qun'ao saw that the atmosphere was not right, he immediately said: "Lord, this world belongs to the lord. I just want the lord to give me a place and I will help you take care of it."
Xiu Jie laughed: "Hahaha, the world is so big and there are so many people who need it."
"Hahaha, the lord is still wise." Li Qun said with an arrogant smile.
Xiu Jie continued: "As long as we capture Essai City, a small corner of the southwest of the mainland will be unified by us."
"Ah." Li Qun'ao exclaimed: "With such a large territory and so many cities, why did the lord call it a small corner?"
"Isn't it a small corner compared to Zhongzhou? Even the Song and Qing Dynasties are larger than our territory."
"What is Song liquidating? As long as the lord gives the order, I am willing to lead troops to annihilate Song Qing."
After listening to Li Qun'ao's words, Xiu Jie laughed loudly: "Okay, wait for that day."
Song Qing was lying on a collapsed chair in a room in the Lord's Mansion, watching several beautiful women in sexy clothes dancing coquettishly and eating grapes peeled by the maid nearby.
On both sides of the room, several people were sitting, drinking wine and watching the dance with Song Qing.
"Come on, come on, have a drink." As the music played, Song Qing spit out the grape seeds in his mouth, chewed the grape flesh, raised the wine glass, narrowed his eyes with joy, and said vaguely.
"Thank you, Lord." Everyone raised their wine glasses to Song Qing. After thanking him, they drank all the wine, put down their glasses, and stared at the dancer in the middle.
"Lord." Gao Xun looked sideways at Song Qing and said, "If the lord likes it, I want to build a building for the city lord that is more grand than the lord's palace."
Hearing this, Song Qing's eyes lit up and he asked, "The Lord's Mansion is already big enough. If it gets bigger and more impressive, it might not be there anymore, right?"
"There is no limit to how big you can be." Gao Xun's eyes flickered, he looked around, and continued: "As long as the city lord is willing, he can build a building ten times larger than the lord's mansion, with all kinds of houses in it, such as this dance hall. There are not many houses, a house for handling political affairs, and a hundred houses in the backyard. The lord’s wife and servants all need to live there.”
These words just hit Song Qing's heart: "Hahaha, Gao Hongguan is still thoughtful and should indeed expand the lord's palace."
When it came to expanding the lord's palace, Duan Yi, who was opposite Gao Xun, said: "Lord, since the lord's palace is going to be expanded, then our territory should also be expanded."
Song Qing waved his hand and said: "Our territory is already big enough, and everyone has paid a lot. Besides, it doesn't matter how big the territory is. Why don't we take advantage of the moment and let everyone enjoy these things given to us by God and share the glory and wealth with me."
Duan Yi continued: "Lord, what do you want to say about the Lord of Xiafu City?"
Speaking of this matter, Song Qing frowned, leaned back on the chair, and said, "This matter still needs to be considered."
Gao Xun said: "Lord, I think Beigong and his son from Xiafu City have sincerely surrendered to us and pretended to write letters to repay. But in this way, we have become enemies with Zhu Yongjing from Haotian City."
Song Qing said: "Although Zhu Yongjing is not a big deal, he has Kuoda under his command, who has good combat power. I heard that he captured two cities in a row."
"Lord." Duan Yi said domineeringly: "We can't give up the city that was given to us for free. If Zhu Yongjing dares to attack us, I, Duan Yi, will kill them."
Song Qing sighed, took a sip of wine, and said: "Although it is good to get a city for free, now Zhu Yongjing has surrounded Xiafu City. They have no choice but to seek refuge with us. They are not sincere. We are happy and let them fight. , just don’t reply.”
Song Qing raised his wine glass and started drinking with everyone watching the beautiful woman.
Beigong Bowang in Xiafu City has not seen the reply from Soluo City for a long time, so he said to Beigong Jueji: "It seems that the Song and Qing Dynasties can't achieve great things. Son, Xiafu City can't be saved, but your life must be saved, otherwise Our Beigong family is doomed."
"Father." Beigong Jueji's face was resolute, his thin body looked like iron bones, and he was unusually strong. The silver bow on his back was stained with blood.
"Zhu Yongjing is no big deal. As long as my father gives me another army, I will fight out, rush directly into their main camp, and kill Zhu Yongjing."
"You have been fighting for a while. If it weren't for the desperate protection of your men, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to come back."
"It's better than waiting to die here." Beigong Jueji said with a look of reluctance on his face.
Beigong Bowang dragged his tired pace, walked to the seat and sat down and said: "The situation is over. You choose the soldiers with the best fighting ability to form an army, break out from the west city gate, and go to Tiya City to join Chen Zishu. You can avenge me in the future."
"Let's go together." Beigong Jue said reluctantly.
"Hahaha." Beigong Bowang chuckled: "How can I, a weak strategist, kill him? Not to mention that I am in the city, so you have a chance to break out."
Beigong Jueji stood still, not knowing what to do. After several admonitions and scoldings from Beigong Bowang, he turned around and left.
Outside the city, Zhu Yongjing led the army under the north city gate and ordered Kuoda to step forward to call for formation.
Looking at the city tower, Kuoda shouted: "Open the city gate quickly, I will spare your life."
Beigong Bowang has come to the city tower, looking at Zhu Yongjing's army, knowing that surrender will be killed by Zhu Yongjing. What he can do now is to attract Zhu Yongjing's main army and create the possibility for Beigong Jueji to break out.
"Stop dreaming. I, Beigong Bowang, am not a weakling. If you have the ability, come and do it."
Seeing that Beigong Bowang would never open the city gate and surrender, Kuoda returned to Zhu Yongjing and said: "City Lord, that old guy refuses to surrender, so we should order an attack on the city."
"Okay." Zhu Yongjing said: "Since Beigong Bowang refuses to surrender, no one is allowed to touch him after the city is broken. I will slowly chop him up with one knife and make him regret why he didn't open the city gate in the first place. He might as well die. Have fun."
"Yes, City Lord."
After receiving the order, Kuoda started to attack the city with a banner of troops and under the cover of archers.
Beigong Bowang, who was on the tower, watched the arrows flying from the sky. After being persuaded by several battalion commanders, he got down from the tower.
