At that time, if he had tried his best to resist the enemy instead of surrendering, the second lieutenant general and those soldiers who were unwilling to betray the Dongli Kingdom would not have been killed.
Of the 600,000 Dongli army, 300,000 died in vain because of his greed for life and fear of death.
And he didn't even send out all the Imperial Guards and Imperial Guards to fight against the enemy, and was seriously injured.
Even if the 300,000 troops he killed were killed in battle, if he could repent in time, resist, and wait for his arrival, Dongli Kingdom would not be annexed by Beixiang Kingdom and most of the country would be annexed.
Xiao Qiang is hateful, and Cheng Chi is equally hateful.
Looking at Cheng Chi who was kneeling down below, Dongfang Yue didn't speak for a long time.
"Meng Li led 70,000 people to come for reinforcements."
To the east of the city gate, another member of Dongfang Yue followed Meng Li and rushed in as the third group after Cheng Chi.
"Wang Meng sent 90,000 people to come to reinforce him."
To the west of the city gate, Dongfang Yue's third follower, Wang Meng, also arrived.
Dongfang Yue nodded happily.
These personal guards were all the personal guards he asked to escort the surviving old, weak, women and children as well as the common people who were unwilling to join the battle to leave.
Unexpectedly, they actually united the people from other cities in the rear and formed a people's resistance army.
Seeing the smile overflowing from Qiao Zilan's lips, Dongfang Yue's eyes softened instantly.
"Is that you?"
"Um?"
"They are too loyal to think of such a solution. Is it you?"
Qiao Zilan said with a proud smile: "We are all citizens of Dongli Kingdom. If Dongli Kingdom is gone, they will become slaves of the subjugated country. Rather than being bullied in the future, it is better to rise up and resist."
Didn't you say it before in front of your father? Water can carry a boat and it can also overturn it. The power of the people is powerful, and you must not underestimate them.
My father loved the people when he was alive. Now that Dongli Kingdom is about to perish, there is only one way to save you, so I guess the people can support you.
After leaving the capital, the three of them separated and went to different cities to gather the people. Knowing that Bei Minghan would arrive today, they all came together at this time."
After listening to Qiao Zilan's words, Dongfang Yue held her hand tighter.
The proudest thing in his life was not being reincarnated into an emperor's family, not becoming a prince, or being loved by the people, but finding such a good wife.
"Cheng Chi was removed from the title of Marshal of Beida, and Pang Tong temporarily took over the post of Marshal of Beida."
"yes!"
Pang Tong rode his horse and quickly rushed to the front of the army. Cheng Chi had already expected that he would have such a result, so he kept kneeling and said nothing.
Seeing Dongfang Yue, who was basically alone before, but now suddenly had an army of 560,000, Bei Minghan felt extremely upset.
If he had known earlier, he would have stopped talking so much and just captured the city first.
"Dongfang Yue, do you think that with the support of these unworthy people, you can win the well-trained army of one million people from Beixiang Kingdom?
Let me tell you, if there are hundreds of thousands more people, it will take a little more time for me. Today, I will let you see with your own eyes how the cavalry of Beixiang Kingdom entered your Jinling City!"
Having said that, Bei Minghan raised his hand, and Beixiang Kingdom's vanguard cavalry was eager to take the plunge.
"Woo——"
With the low and penetrating sound of the charge, the front row of cavalry raised their hooves, ready to wait for the highest order.
