In the tenth year of Tianshun, Yan Lie, the second son of the Yan family, was named the generalissimo of the expedition to the north, set off from Yuyang Pass, led the Great Chu soldiers to the north, and vowed to take Beiyan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This war lasted for three years.

In the summer of the thirteenth year of Tianshun, in the shouts of the earth-shattering rush, after a day and night of fierce fighting, the Great Chu army cheered - the gate of the capital of the Northern Yan Kingdom was opened.

In recent years, there has been continuous civil strife in Beiyan, and the people's will has long been weakened, and with the promulgation of the Zhao'an Decree by Great Chu, there are many preferential treatment for the officials and royal families who surrender, and those who are not afraid of death are in the minority.

The nobles and officials in Beiyan City, under the leadership of several tribal princes, went out of the city to beg for surrender.

Yan Lie originally thought that the capital of the Northern Yan Kingdom would have to fight for three days before he could take it. Therefore, when he heard the pro-soldier report that the Beiyan people had surrendered, he also paused for a moment, "Lead the horse for me, go, take a look!" ”

He put on a jet-black armor and rode a red horse, and strode out of the camp.

Seeing those nobles and officials who had surrendered, he turned his gaze around, and did not see Su Lihong, the lord of the Northern Yan Kingdom, "What about your lord?" ”

"Tell the general, our lord, he, in the ancestral temple!" A Northern Yan official immediately flattered in return.

"Yan Liu, you take someone to arrange to take over the city defense, and some people are left outside the city to block the road out of the city." Yan Lie first ordered the military affairs, and then said to the Beiyan official, "You lead the way, go!" ”

The reckless teenager in the past has long been calm now.

Yan Lie didn't get off his horse, he rode on a horse and let a few Beiyan people lead the way, and led a team of people and horses to the ancestral temple.

Before I arrived at the Beiyanzu Temple, I smelled blood.

"How many people are there with your lord?"

"The Lord...... There is also a team of guards beside the lord of the country. The official was slurring.

Yan Lie glanced at him and didn't ask any more. I am really stupid, according to Su Lihong's plans at these times, he plans to fight to the death.

It is estimated that he led the Great Chu soldiers to besiege and defend the city for three days, and yesterday suddenly attacked the city fiercely, so that those nobles who were afraid of death were unwilling to die in the city, and opened the city gate early in the morning and surrendered.

Su Lihong had no choice, and she was afraid that she would be taken down by these nobles and officials and become a voter, so she took people to retreat to the ancestral temple, right?

Seeing that Yan Lie didn't ask again, the official secretly sighed, and seeing that the Beiyan Ancestral Temple was getting closer and closer, the official shrank back.

Yan Lie didn't reluctantly let them rush to the front, and he rushed forward with the Great Chu people.

In the sky above the North Yanzu Temple, there are crows circling and chirping.

This ancestral temple was built by the first generation of the lord of the Northern Yan Dynasty after the capital, and it is said that the tablets of the previous lords are enshrined here. There is only one two-storey building here.

The gate of the ancestral temple was half-hidden and half-open, and there was bloody gas inside, and there were also human voices.

"Shieldmen on alert, open the door!" Yan Lie pointed to the gate and ordered.

The Da Chu soldiers rushed forward, and the door was actually pushed open, and no bows and arrows were shot.

"Tell the marshal, most of the people inside are dead."

This ancestral temple has steps, and it is inconvenient to ride a horse forward, so Yan Lie got off the horse and walked to the temple.

If you look closely, you can see that his feet are slightly lame, but he strides forward with such a strong momentum that almost no one notices.

Inside the door, there were nearly dozens of corpses, dressed in the clothes of the guards in the Beiyan Palace.

Yan Lie stepped over those corpses, and saw that there were several people standing in the gate of the ancestral temple where the tablets were enshrined, one of them was wearing battle armor and a feather hat inlaid with white jade, and his body was still burly, but his face was a little unfamiliar.

"Yan Lie!" The man screamed.

Yan Lie thought about it carefully, and felt that this voice was still familiar, but he didn't expect Su Lihong to be haggard like this.

There was blood on that face, and the beard was not taken care of.

There was even blood dripping from the armor he was wearing.

"Lord, we don't want to die!"

"Father, Father......"

In the hall behind Su Lihong, there was a cry, followed by a scream.

"Su Lihong, my Great Chu Sage has decreed, if you are willing to surrender, Great Chu is willing to treat you with princely courtesies and ensure that you enjoy your life in peace!" Yan Lie first passed on the holy decree given to him by Emperor Tianshun.

"Surrender? Enjoying your life? Su Lihong muttered a few words as if crying and laughing, turned his head and yelled inside, "If you want to blame, blame yourself for your miserable life, you shouldn't be my Su Lihong's children!" ”

After he finished speaking, he took two steps inward, and suddenly half-turned around and glanced at Yan Lie's feet, "Yan Lie, you can take revenge!" ”

"Su Lihong, you are a hero, my sister said, if I can see you again, let me tell you, Beiyan has a lord like you, and he will die!"

"Hmph, that's nonsense! The Mandate of Heaven is not in Beiyan in Dachu, and the king is defeated or defeated, whatever you say. After Su Lihong finished speaking, he strode into the hall, but in a moment, smoke came out of the hall, and soon, a raging fire ignited.

Yan Lie glanced at it and muttered, "You should thank me for my mercy and let you commit suicide." Speaking of which, Ning'er has a lot of grudges than me. ”

Yan Ning's words were simply pouring salt on Su Lihong's wound and giving it the biggest blow.

Of course, after Yan Ning found out later, she felt that Yan Lie was to blame at all, she asked Yan Lie to say this when Su Lihong was stubbornly resisting, and everyone made it clear that she wanted to die, so there was no need to say it.

In the past ten years, Su Lihong has also worked hard in Beiyan, but first several princes refused to accept the rebellion, and then natural disasters, these years, Su Lihong has not had a comfortable day.

With a bang, the main hall of the Beiyan Ancestral Temple collapsed, and all the people were buried inside.

"You take people to keep watch, and when the fire is extinguished, dig up the corpses inside!" Yan Lie ordered a team of soldiers to guard around this ancestral temple and stopped looking.

Su Lihong's suicide is the best, when he dies, he can just choose a king from among the close relatives of the royal family.

The fire in the ancestral temple burned for a day and a night, and the fire reflected half of the sky in the capital of Beiyan Kingdom.

Yan Lie also asked those Northern Yan royal families who surrendered to come to the ancestral temple, and when they met those who came to put out the fire or wanted to be martyred, they all asked these royal families to persuade and lobby.

After the fire was extinguished, Yan Lie asked people to dig up the corpses under the rubble and ordered them to be buried thickly.

For a while, the loyal people in Beiyan had resentment and anger towards those who surrendered, but they had less resentment against the soldiers of Dachu.

After the capture of the national capital, other cities in the territory of Beiyan successively surrendered the city, and it didn't take long for most of them to be pacified, except for sporadic resistance.

After receiving the battle report, Emperor Chu Zhaoheng of Tianshun happily decreed that Yan Lie acted cheaply, collected the Northern Yan royal family, and canonized Yan Lie as the Marquis of Xuanbei.

Many years ago, Yan Lie was originally named a marquis, but Yan Lie said that he had no merit and did not dare to be crowned.

Now, Yan Lie finally obtained the title of Marquis of Xuanbei by virtue of his military exploits.
