Inexplicably, more than a hundred people lay down on the battlefield.

Without the command of these "mainstays", the pirates who were originally a ragtag group immediately became a mess, and they turned around and fled.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After Nangong Shehu slashed a pirate commander in front of him in half, his eyes met Li Nuo's.

He was still wondering why those pirate commanders suddenly died. It turned out that Duke Wu An was here!

He pointed his blade directly at the setting sun and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, reinforcements have arrived, all generals obey the order and kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Already exhausted, the morale of the soldiers, who were supported by only one breath, was once again ignited, and they launched a frantic pursuit of the escaping pirates!

A strong general has no weak soldiers!

Li Nuo felt emotional.

This Nangong Shehu, to be a small naval admiral in Jiangnan is really unworthy of his talent.

Such a tiger general should be placed in the north.

He had already come up with the idea of ​​transferring Nangong Shehu to Shaoyang Pass to help his mentor.

Of course, this matter still needs to be carefully considered. After all, it is not easy to mobilize a general, especially when it involves military power.

Two hours later, the setting sun faded and night fell.

The pirates had completely collapsed. More than 30,000 people were killed in the battle, and the remaining 70,000 people abandoned their armor and knelt down to surrender.

Nangong Shehu, whose armor was stained with blood, ignored the fatigue of the past few days and immediately stepped forward, clasped his fists at Li Nuo and said: "Hahaha, if Mr. Wu An hadn't killed those pirate commanders and broken the formation, what would I have done?

I'm afraid I'm going to die fighting here."

"General Nangong is so humble. You fight bravely, and your men are all warriors who dare to fight. Even without me, you can definitely fight your way out."

Li Nuo replied politely.

Nangong Shehu saw that he was the only one with Li Nuo and said in surprise: "Mr. Wu An, Vice General Zhang is not with you?"

"Vice-General Zhang was sent by you to report the news?"

Li Nuo asked rhetorically.

The soldier commander mentioned this person before, saying that it was this person's rebellion that caused Nangong Shehu to fall into a desperate situation.

Nangong nodded: "Well, he is my lieutenant. I delayed the dragon crossing the river and sent him to respond to Tianfu's request for help from you."

Li Nuo shook his head and said, "I didn't see Vice General Zhang."

"Then how did you know I was on this desert island?"

Nangong Shehu said doubtfully.

"It was your soldier commander who came to report the news. However, he had already been bribed by Zhao Quan and wanted to lure me into an ambush. Unfortunately, I found out. By the way, Zhao Quan has also been arrested by me. He is on the ship ahead.

.”

Li Nuo explained briefly.

"As expected, he rebelled!"

Nangong shot the tiger's eyes with murderous intent.

In fact, he had already noticed that this soldier commander who had been with him for ten years had behaved strangely recently.

It was just that the fighting on the battlefield was chaotic, and he thought the commander of the soldiers had died in the battle.

"Hey, Lieutenant General Zhang seems to be in a bad situation."

Nangong Shehu sighed.

However, he had already put life and death aside.

He had seen quite a lot of people dying in battle. Without a strong heart, how could he be the commander-in-chief of the army?

In this battle, in addition to Vice General Zhang, more than 10,000 soldiers were killed!

However, after this battle, the sea disaster of the Dragon Crossing the River has been solved, and the people along the coast can be assured of peace of mind for at least twenty years.

Therefore, these soldiers deserved their death!

When he returns to Yingtian Mansion, he will definitely write a letter to the court to ask for merit for these soldiers.

"What to do with these pirates?"

Li Nuo pointed at the surrendered pirates and said.

Seventy thousand people is not a small number.

Of course Nangong Shehu would not do something stupid like killing prisoners.

But he will never let these pirates feel easy.

He said calmly: "Several Yangtze River embankments in the south of the Yangtze River are not stable, so let them build embankments. If they behave well within twenty years, they will be released, otherwise they will work on the banks of the Yangtze River forever until they die..."

"Then let General Nangong handle it. I will lead Zhao Quan to respond to Tianfu first."

Li Nuo said.

"Okay, then Mr. Wu An will go ahead and wait for me to gather the soldiers before boarding the ship and returning home."

Nangong Shehu said.

"Take care of yourself!"

Li Nuo returned to the ship.

Zhao Quan looked like he was mourning his heir, his eyes were lifeless.

There was no trace of pity in Li Nuo's eyes.

If you dare to make fun of Yingtian Mansion or even the whole Jiangnan, Zhao Quan's death will not be a pity!

After returning to Yingtian Mansion and announcing Zhao Quan's heinous crime, he was handed over to the court for punishment.

After all, he is a second-grade governor appointed by the imperial court. Although he can use the Emperor's Sword to kill him, this is not a favor to the imperial court and is thankless, so it is best to leave it to the imperial court.

Zhao Quan also thought about biting his tongue and committing suicide, but in the end he did not have the courage.

Moreover, he gradually had the idea of ​​​​living in his mind.

Princess Taiping!

Maybe we will save his life again like we did back then!

right!

Don’t look at the monk’s face but look at the Buddha’s face.

He and His Highness Taiping also have a son!

For the sake of her son, Princess Taiping shouldn't be so heartless, right?

Thinking of this, a glimmer of hope appeared in Zhao Quan's gray eyes.

…

On the way back, there was no further disturbance.

After successfully returning to Yingtian Mansion.

The government immediately informed Zhao Quan of colluding with the Jia people.

The whole Jiangnan exploded immediately!

The governor of Jiangnan actually colluded with foreign tribes and sacrificed a thousand human tribes every year to the Jia king?

No wonder there are always young girls missing inexplicably in recent months...

If you don’t kill this person, it won’t be enough to vent the people’s anger!

Zhao Quan's bloodline was sealed by Li Nuo, and he was put into a prison car. Guards Zhou of the Governor's Mansion personally escorted him and sent him to Luoyang.

Along the way, rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, and even dog feces were all thrown onto the prison cart.

From a dignified governor to a prisoner, Zhao Quan almost went crazy.

If he hadn't still had the faith of Princess Taiping in his heart to support his survival, he would have collapsed long ago.

Of course, the imperial court naturally got the news first.

At this moment, the court hall once again turned into a vegetable market, and there was a lot of noise.

Of course, the court officials were completely positive about the achievements of Li Nuo and Nangong Shehu, but now no one dared to jump out and make irresponsible remarks about Li Nuo.

What they were arguing about was whether Zhao Quan should be executed after the Qiu Dynasty, or whether he should be exiled to a bitter cold land.

Although the tree fell and the hozens dispersed, Zhao Quan still had good connections accumulated over the years.

Well, at least the annual filial piety made the lives of some important ministers very comfortable. Therefore, many ministers in the court excused him.

However, there was no result after arguing for a day, and it was finally decided to wait until Zhao Quan was escorted to Beijing to discuss it again.
