Chapter 132 The end is coming

The chase ended up in the Kingdom of Wensu. King Wensu had always had a good relationship with Liju.

The two went to school together when they were young and can be regarded as old friends and classmates.

At this time, Liju, who was already exhausted, entered Wensu City to seek the protection of King Wensu.

It is a pity that King Wensu, who has been paying attention to the situation in Kucha, already knew the current situation.

How could King Wensu, who had a small country and a weak people, dare to offend the powerful man and take in and protect Liju?

King Wensu pretended to agree at first, hoping to capture Liju after he entered the palace and claim credit from the Han army.

Unexpectedly, Liju was informed in advance by the nobles in the city.

When the two met, Liju attacked first, kidnapped King Wensu and escaped from Wensu.

However, after this delay, Guo Kai and his men had already caught up.

Both sides were chasing each other, but Liju, who was in a panic, accidentally entered a river valley.

Wensu people who were familiar with the terrain took a shortcut and blocked Liju's path in advance.

In the afternoon, the Han army and the Wensu Palace Guards blocked Liju and others in the river valley.

"Liju, you can't run away anymore. If you don't want to get off your horse quickly, maybe you can leave your whole body..."

"Hahaha, I am the first hero of Liju... If you want my head, it depends on whether you have the ability..."

After saying that, Liju was desperate and did not stop. He first killed King Wensu and then led his men to kill the Han army.

"court death!"

"Kill him!"

Guo Kai gave an order,

"wind!"

Countless arrows flew out, instantly turning Liju and his men into hedgehogs.

Guo Kaida stepped forward and chopped off his head with a knife...

Guo Kai turned the horse's head and returned to Liju's body.

Jump off the horse

"Bah!" he said.

Then he took a lance and stuck Liju's head on the tip of the lance.

In response to this, Guo Kai politely comforted the Wensu people and handed him a Han sword.

Immediately gave the order

"Second and third sons mount up..."

He led his cavalry to fight the horse and return home.

…

When Guo Kai led his men to pursue Li Ju and others, Ma Han also led a signatory army composed of more than 1,500 Han troops and more than 2,000 surrender troops to visit the city.

Baicheng is located in the west and north of Yancheng and is the second largest city in Qiuci Kingdom.

After the ancestors of Liju were kicked off the throne, they migrated here.

After nearly a hundred years of development by the Li family, today's Baicheng is even better than Yancheng in terms of population, except that it has a slightly smaller population than Yancheng.

The city not only has countless wealth, but also a large number of craftsmen.

As the home base of the Li family, Baicheng can be considered a strong city among the countries in the Western Regions.

The city was not considered empty at this time, as there were still nearly two thousand soldiers garrisoned.

However, there are indeed not many elites. There are about 600 standing troops, and the rest are peasant soldiers recruited temporarily.

Facing the Han army approaching the city, the people in the city did not intend to surrender.

After years of propaganda from the Li family, the soldiers and civilians of Baicheng regarded the Han people as demonic soldiers fighting against the Buddha.

If you fight the Han army, even if you die in battle, you can ascend to the Buddhist kingdom and enjoy the ultimate happiness.

"The Han army was cultivated by demons. As long as they are killed, the Buddhas will..."

"For my Buddha's sake, even if all the people in this city die in battle, I will never surrender..."

"Kill the Han army and enter the Buddhist kingdom!"

In the city of worship, the people of the Li family were working hard to propagate and agitate.

They knew that the Han army might let others go, but they would never let go of the Li family.

If you want to survive, you must fight to the death.

"What are the people shouting about in the city?"

Ma Han asked the translator Qiuci on the side.

The translator looked troubled, but he still said honestly, "The city is shouting that the Han army is the devil's servants..."

"devil!"

Mahan chuckled, "Someone will let them know what the devil is..."

Judging from the behavior in the city, the people who worshiped the city had no intention of surrendering, so Mahan was too lazy to send anyone forward to recruit them.

"Second and third sons, set up camp and attack the city tomorrow!"

Following Ma Han's order, the Han army moved quickly.

Before dark, a strong camp had been erected outside Baicheng.

The people of the Li family in the city were gathering around the great elder with sad faces.

"Great Elder, now that the Han army is approaching the city, what should we do?"

A young man asked with a sad face.

This person is none other than Li Hu, the younger brother of Li Ju and now the supreme commander of Bai City.

The great elder glanced at Lihu and said, "Is there anyone in the Han army who can come and surrender?"

Lihu shook his head with a sad face and said, "Never!"

"Have you ever sent someone to contact the Han army?" the great elder asked.

Lihu shook his head and said, "Never!"

"Then why don't you hurry up and send someone to contact the Han army!" said the great elder.

"Yes, I will send people to the Han army camp right away?"

"Great Elder, I want Li Shan to go, what do you think?"

After hearing this, the great elder thought for a moment and sighed, "That's fine!"

At this time, Lishan was also in the hall, but his face turned pale when he heard this.

He didn't expect that Lihu would actually do this to avenge his own personal vengeance when life and death was at stake.

Although he was unhappy in his heart, he did not object vocally.

He knew that since the great elder had already agreed, it would be meaningless even if he objected.

"Where is Lishan?" Lihu shouted despite clearly seeing Lishan.

Lishan walked slowly out of the crowd, "Lishan is here!"

"Lishan, it is now the end of our Li family's life and death. I hope you can ignore the past grievances and go to the Han camp to persuade the Han army to withdraw..."

Looking at Li Hu performing there, Li Shan secretly laughed in his heart.

However, Li Shankou did not refute but cooperated, "Li Shan will fight to the death to repay the kindness of his parents for their upbringing... Unless the Han army retreats, Li Shan will never return to the city!"

"good!"

"I, the Li family, need such a good man..." But it was the great elder who spoke from the side.

The great elder continued, "If Li Shan succeeds in doing this, I will guarantee you to be the general manager of the Li family..."

Hearing this, Lishan quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, Great Elder..."

Half an hour later, Lishan took the gifts prepared by the Li family for the Han army general and led a few soldiers out of the city to the Han army camp.

"Who are you?"

"I would like to ask the general to report that Lishan from Baicheng City is here to ask for an audience..."

The chief guarding the camp said, "Wait a moment!"
