In order to stabilize the northern border, the imperial court allocated 20,000 yuan in two years to repair the border city walls. This is an important border area and a barrier for the capital, but no matter how good the defenses are, they cannot withstand the flames of war over and over again.
Jin Yue Khan led his men to attack the city regardless of the cost, and defeated Zhang Yuchi's troops and fled, and he finally entered the palace.
He had waited too long for this moment.
"Continue going south."
The Great Zhou Dynasty is already in chaos, so we won't encounter much resistance along the way, and we can reach the capital very quickly.
Tens of thousands of cavalry marched forward, making rumbles that shook the heavens and the earth.
"Great Khan," the general said, riding quickly, "we have discovered the troops and horses of the Great Zhou ahead."
Jin Yue Khan frowned: "Are they the defenders of the guard station?" The defenders of the guard station are nothing to be afraid of. They are all remnants of the army and are incompetent.
However, according to his plan, after the people who went to Sihai Yishao broke through the pass, they should come to meet them, but the soldiers and horses did not move at all.
"Khan, he is the king's master, the king's master of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Impossible, Jin Yue Khan immediately drove his horse forward, he wanted to see it with his own eyes.
News came from the capital that the Zhang family had taken control of the capital and the emperor was trapped in Shunde. Even if the emperor wanted to take the king's troops north, someone would try to stop him. King Jian left the last spy for him, and that person's news was the most reliable.
, he rarely used that person, for fear that someone would notice something was wrong. This time, he only let that person help with all his strength during the war with Dazhou, so nothing would go wrong.
Jin Yue Khan thought about running forward, and finally climbed up the hillside not far away. The scene in front of him immediately came into view, and his eyes suddenly tightened.
The soldiers beside Jin Yue Khan couldn't help rubbing their eyes.
This is not a dream, it's real.
The army of Zhou Dynasty.
And at that time, Master Wang, because the flag raised high had a huge word "Qi" written on it.
"It's Song Chengxuan," the scout came to report after inquiring about the news. "These people are from the southeast."
"It's impossible. It's so far from the southeast to here. Even if Song Chengxuan can go north, he should go to the capital to seize the throne. How could he come here," Jin Yue Khan said in disbelief, "He doesn't want the throne, but comes to resist us.
, is he crazy?"
"Where are the people from Sihai Metallurgical Institute?" Jin Yue Khan asked, "Where have they gone?"
"Sihai Yesuo..." the scout said, "We were not able to capture it, but it was taken back by the Zhou Dynasty. The soldiers over there came back to ask for help and said...Song Chengxuan and his people were at Sihai Yesuo."
When the scout said this, his voice became smaller and smaller.
"Hahaha," Jin Yue Khan said with a stern look on his face after laughing, "Don't you think it's ridiculous? Song Chengxuan is also from Sihai Metallurgical Institute, and Song Chengxuan from the southeast is also here. Not only can Song Chengxuan be able to send magical weapons from heaven,
There is also the art of clone."
Jin Yue Khan's words made the scout lower his head.
"They are all rubbish," Jin Yue Khan said. "You failed to get good news, so you came to disturb the morale of the army."
Jin Yue Khan's eyes darkened: "No matter who it is, the warriors under my command will not be afraid. I will order the army to follow me to meet the enemy." He had been planning for so long, but Song Chengxuan's people still appeared here, unless Song Chengxuan had known about him for a long time.
plan.
Jin Yue Khan had a feeling of being seen through. It was a very unpleasant feeling, like ice water being poured from the top of his head, and soon the chill spread all over his body.
In this case, it depends on who can win this battle, and this world will belong to him.
…
The emperor was besieged several times by Zhang family soldiers and horses, and finally escaped.
Master Wang held the broken flag in his hand, like a bereaved dog.
When some refugees on the road saw this scene, they thought that some guard station had lost the battle. No one would have thought that the man fleeing in embarrassment was the emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
The emperor hurried on without sleep. His anger and fear made him sick, and he was extremely weak when he arrived at Fengyang.
King Ning came with his troops to pick him up, and was shocked to see the emperor like this.
The emperor stepped forward and held Prince Ning's hand tightly, his eyes widened: "The Zhang family and King Cheng have rebelled." Until now, he still doesn't know where King Cheng led his troops, whether he defected to Song Chengxuan or looked for Song Chengxuan.
He hid somewhere and found the right opportunity to fight for the throne.
"If I had known, I should have killed him when King Jian was king." The emperor looked at King Ning, as if he had a lot to say, "I believed him, let him go back to Prince Cheng's Mansion, and still let him be the head of Zongzheng Temple. He is
This is how you repay me.
Sooner or later, I will arrest these rebels, disembowel them and feed them to the dogs."
King Ning shuddered and reached out to touch his belly. It would be disgusting to be killed like this. He would never do this. King Ning swallowed a gulp. Wouldn't it be better to deal with it quietly?
?Why get your hands bloody?
"Prince Ning," the emperor has been looking forward to for a year, "you are my loyal minister. Whether the country of Great Zhou can be saved depends on you."
"Your Majesty, don't worry," Prince Ning looked at the embarrassed emperor, and his confidence suddenly doubled, "the country of Great Zhou will be safe and sound, and the inheritance of our ancestors will not be lost.
As long as you come here, the world will be peaceful and there will be no more fights."
When the emperor heard this, he felt moved in his heart.
Prince Ning helped the emperor move forward: "Fengyang is a good place. Grandpa Taizu started his rebellion here, and the imperial mausoleum of our Zhou Dynasty is also here. It is quite secluded and suitable for rest. The emperor must be tired from this journey."
, I asked people to clean up the yard, and the emperor will go and have a rest first."
The emperor breathed a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, he sent Prince Ning to Fengyang. Although Fengyang was close to the southeast, it was not affected by the war.
The soldiers guarding the city were very brave, and looked as good as the king's master, especially the people brought by King Ning. They all stood there silently, with calm and solemn expressions, which showed that the military law in Fengyang City was strict.
The emperor couldn't help but sigh: "Back then, King Jian rebelled and Fengyang was in a fire. I didn't expect that it would be restored to this state in just a few years. King Ning was indispensable." I hope that after this catastrophe, the capital will soon recover.
Recovered as before.
"After I came to Fengyang, I also had this feeling. Maybe this is to risk death and live later," Ning Wang said. "I have been forced to have no way out, so I have to act like this."
The emperor always felt that Prince Ning's words meant something, but he couldn't figure it out for the moment.
Prince Ning continued: "I don't dare to take credit for it. We don't know how to train these soldiers and horses. It is indeed not the merit of me. They are all... the people cultivated by the imperial court."
The emperor was very tired and didn't want to argue with Prince Ning about this. He only knew now that Fengyang's troops and horses were enough for him to mobilize, and the Zhang family was helpless for a while.
Walking into a courtyard, Yu Jiang and others helped the emperor to wash up and change clothes.
Simple meals were also served in the kitchen.
After eating, the emperor felt much better. He looked at King Ning and asked, "Aren't there any troops coming from the southeast?"
King Ning shook his head.
The emperor frowned: "Is there a war going on around here?"
Prince Ning shook his head again: "No, there is peace in the south, and the states and governments have begun to resettle the people from the north."
"Why?" The emperor couldn't help but murmured.
Ning Wang said: "Strengthen the defense at the city gates to try to prevent more people from being affected by the war. The same goes for Fengyang's soldiers and horses to protect the surrounding state capitals."
The whole Zhou Dynasty was obviously in chaos, so why was it so stable here? Moreover, he only ordered the Fengyang garrison to resist the southeastern army, but did not let them stand still and protect the surrounding state capitals. The emperor couldn't help but feel a little more confused.
"Your Majesty, please rest for a while." Feng Shun stepped forward to persuade him.
King Ning stood up and left.
Looking at King Ning's back, the emperor fell into thinking. For some reason, he always felt that something was wrong. King Ning was no longer timid, and even showed some ability. He had been to Fengyang before, and when he entered the city again this time, he felt
This Fengyang has become very different from before, and he can't explain exactly what is different.
