Chapter 1802
"Okay, stop talking!"
Chang Jingan raised his hand: "I have made up my mind! Talking more is useless!"
Everyone shut their mouths, and Chang Yao's eyes flashed with misery. He knew Chang Jingan's temperament, and if he said he wouldn't leave, then he definitely wouldn't leave.
Chang Jingan said word by word: "I, Chang Jingan, am very lucky to be able to fight on the battlefield with you and protect my country and my family!
Now when the army is defeated and the building is about to collapse, are you still willing to obey my orders?"
"boom!"
"We will obey military orders!"
Nearly a hundred figures knelt down in unison. The courtyard was densely packed with heads, all men with solemn expressions and blood all over their bodies.
These people are elite men who survived a whole day and night of fighting. Which one of them didn't crawl out from among the dead?
Chang Jingan said in a deep voice:
"Chang Yao, you choose twenty good players and march out of the city overnight. Don't stop inside the territory and go straight to the front line of Jiaodong Road.
You have to tell your father personally that the Yan family has rebelled and the Yan army has entered the country, so that your father can immediately lead an army to come back for reinforcements, quickly!"
Hearing that Chang Jingan wanted to retreat out of the city, Chang Yao immediately became anxious and prepared to refute, but Chang Jingan's next words made him shut up.
"I know that you are not afraid of death, and you don't want to leave Hanzhou City.
But you have to know that if the hundreds of thousands of troops fighting on the field cannot return in time, the entire Pinghan Road will be occupied by the Yan people, and it will become a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Once our army's retreat is cut off by the Yan army, hundreds of thousands of troops will no longer have a foothold!
The burden on your shoulders is very heavy!"
Chang Yao's eyes flickered. He was not a fool and naturally understood what Chang Jingan meant.
Although he was extremely unwilling in his heart, he still gritted his teeth and agreed:
"The general will obey your orders!"
Then Chang Jingan looked at the commander of the soldiers on the right and shouted softly:
"Take twenty people and go to the granaries and arsenals separately. Burn as much grain and supplies as possible. We will only leave the Yan army with an empty city!"
"promise!"
"The remaining brothers, get ready and follow me to kill the enemy later!"
"promise!"
As Chang Jingan's military order was issued, figures emerged from the hidden courtyard one after another, rushing in all directions amidst the firelight that filled the sky.
Only Chang Yao quietly walked to Chang Jingan's side, but hesitated to speak.
"Why, is there anything else?" Chang Jingan looked at this military general of his own race, his eyes surprisingly calm.
"What should we do, the head of the family, the young and old of the Chang family, and the old and weak women and children of the various major families?"
This time Chang Yao did not address Chang Jingan as general, but as head of the family, and the conversation was more like a private matter.
Chang Jingan's face trembled. In fact, both he and Chang Yao knew that if the army was defeated, all the generals and families in the city would be massacred.
This is a member of the Chang family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. Do you want to save them?
After holding it in for a long time, Chang Jingan finally uttered:
"Life and death are left to fate."
It’s not that Chang Jingan doesn’t want to be saved, can he be saved?
Chang Yao's lip was almost bleeding from the bite. His wife, children and children were also in the city, but he no longer had the ability to take care of them.
"Let's go."
Chang Jingan put his palm gently on Chang Yao's shoulder and said solemnly:
"The future survival of Pinghan Dao depends on you! Don't let me die in peace!"
"boom!"
Chang Yao knelt on one knee and said with a sore nose:
"General, I will do my best! General, please rest assured!"
"Walk!"
"General, take care!"
As Chang Yao led the people away, the huge courtyard gradually became empty, with only thirty or forty people remaining guarding Chang Jingan, each holding a bloody scimitar.
These border soldiers who had been with Chang Jing'an for many years all had expressions of despair, because they knew that this would be the last battle in their lives.
Chang Jingan's eyes slowly swept across the crowd and said coldly:
"Let's go to the General's Mansion!"
…
"Dang Dang Dang!"
"Ahhhh~"
"Chi chi chi~"
The city was filled with cries of killing for a whole day and night, and the capital of Pinghan Road was completely reduced to a hell on earth.
The mad soldiers of the Yan army rushed into the houses in the streets and alleys, robbed property, killed the old and the weak, and raped women. The cruelty of their methods was chilling.
The brows of Zhou Weiran, Wanyanbi and others who were stationed outside the city gradually widened, because military reports from the city were continuously delivered to the hands of the three of them, and victory was firmly in their hands.
Although the beating was a bit rough, it didn't cause any harm.
As long as Hanzhou City is conquered, the entire Pinghan Road will be within reach.
"Da da da~"
A burst of rapid hoofbeats suddenly sounded, and a group of cavalry rushed out of the city and stopped in front of the three people. The leader was the commander of the Pinghan Dao Infantry Army Yan Zhang.
Yan Zhang looked directly at Zhou Weiran, and shouted in a cold voice with a trace of anger on his face:
"Your Majesty, you and I have made an agreement a long time ago. When the Yan army breaks the city, they will not kill the people wantonly. Now that the soldiers in the city have lost control, don't you think it's time to restrain them?"
Zhou Weiran's face froze, and he looked helplessly at Nalan Tingye.
Although he is the King of Dongting and can command some of the troops and horses of the original Beijin, the soldiers who came from Yanrong Grassland, especially the so-called Eight Banners of Great Yan, are not under his control at all. The two commanders only listen to Nalan Tingye's orders
Order.
Most of the soldiers who are killing people wantonly now are under the command of Ulan Bals. Zhou Weiran's words will have no effect.
Yan Zhang looked at Nalan Tingye and said in a deep voice:
"Prime Minister Nalan, aren't you going to do something?
I, Yan, will cooperate with you under certain conditions!"
Yan Zhang also knew that the situation in Dongting was complicated, so he suppressed his anger as much as possible.
Although Yan Zhang's angry eyes made Nalan Tingye a little unhappy, Nalan Tingye still waved hello to a follower and said softly:
"Tell General Ulan to restrain his soldiers and not to kill civilians indiscriminately!"
"No~"
"Haha, General Yan, do you think this is feasible?" Nalan Tingye looked at Yan Zhang with a smile on his face.
Yan Zhang glanced at the entourage who was leaving to deliver the message, and said with an expressionless expression, "Thank you, Prime Minister. I have to go to the Yan Mansion and say goodbye!"
The Yan family's mansion is also in Hanzhou City. Although his close relatives have been secretly moved out by Yan Zhang, he does not want to see a Yan mansion covered with corpses.
Looking at Yan Zhang's retreating figure, a cold light seemed to flash through the depths of Nalan Tingye's eyes, and then disappeared again.
Not long after Yan Zhang left, another cavalry messenger came galloping over and shouted in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, the General's Mansion in the city found traces of Pinghan Dao Jiedushi Chang Jing'an!"
"oh?"
Zhou Weiran's eyes suddenly lit up: "Are you sure it's him?"
"able!"
"Haha, this Jiedushi didn't escape." Zhou Weiran chuckled, waved his hand and said:
Chapter completed!
