Text Chapter 338 Riding a Horse and Playing a Triumphant Song

When the morning sun began to rise again in the east, Wang Xiancheng finally gradually returned to calm. After a night of fighting and riots, the royal city underwent great changes.

The red sun in the early morning radiated ten thousand rays of light, reflecting on the flags fluttering on the city's head, and the city residents who had the courage to sneak out were surprised to see that the royal flag of King Wei had long disappeared, and was replaced by several mighty dragon flags.

The claws of the cloud dragon embroidered on the banner were excited, and they were ready to fly, and they were hunted by the wind of the early morning. This is the banner of the Great Han! Coming from Chang'an and flying above this royal city, it represents the conquest of the city and the country.

The Han army athletes under the banner of the Great Han Dragon are dressed in armor and battle helmets, and they are very neatly draped. Although they didn't close their eyes for almost a night, everyone's face was full of energy, and there was no trace of tiredness. This is the demeanor of a victor, and at such a moment, even if you don't sleep for a few days and nights, then what is it!

After continuous purging, the stubborn resistance forces in the city have either been eliminated or have fled in disarray, and heavy troops have been sent to guard all important places, palaces, treasury houses, arsenals and other places.

It can be regarded as a complete victory, and this kind of realization is now clear to even every ordinary Han soldier. Crossing the sea to pacify a country with less than 10,000 soldiers and horses, while only paying a few hundred casualties, such a record is not rare in history.

No wonder the faces of every Han army soldier are glowing, no matter when it comes to talking about it in the future, the honor of pacifying Liaodong under the command of Yuan Zhao is enough to boast in front of people.

But now their joy is only to be happy for the victory, and when it comes to a later moment, when each of them has received a huge reward beyond their imagination, the feeling at that time will be dizzy with excitement!

Naturally, the soldiers of the Black Eagle Army guarding Jingyang Palace had thoroughly cleaned up inside and out last night. The captured King Wei and his harem concubines were placed in special custody, and along with several important ministers, they were treated closely. There may be only one outcome that awaits them, and that is to leave their homeland, be escorted to Chang'an, and be held prisoner in front of the Weiyang Palace, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty to decide their fate.

These future events naturally don't need to worry about the officers and soldiers of the Black Eagle Army, and their current task is to take good care of them and ensure that there will be no accidents. Therefore, in accordance with the order, the guards inside and outside the palace were very strict.

The whole city of Wang Weicheng has fallen, Jingyang Palace has been taken over by the Han army, and King Wei has become a prisoner! This shocking news, like wings, quickly reached the ears of everyone in the city, and in the early morning it was known to everyone, and then it flew out of the city of Wang Wei and spread in all directions.

The Wei clan ruled this land for a hundred years, raising soldiers with self-respect, not showing benevolence and righteousness, only knowing that they were extorting and expropriating, and they were unkind and unvirtuous, and they never gained the true hearts of the people. Therefore, after the fall overnight, although the people in the city have not yet appeared to celebrate each other, the joy on their faces when they whisper to each other cannot be concealed.

Many people quietly walked out of their homes, and after watching, they saw that the Han Dynasty troops who were guarding the streets everywhere did not look like they were so fierce and vicious, but they were disciplined and kind, and their hearts were somewhat settled.

So, groups of bold people began to come to the vicinity of Jingyang Palace, wanting to find out what they had heard and whether what they had heard was true. What happened to the high-ranking Guardian now?

The battle in Jingyang Palace last night was not very fierce, the change happened too suddenly, the guards loyal to the king were caught off guard, and the hearts of the army and the people were already unstable.

However, the blood stains splashed on the ground by the casualties can still be seen occasionally. At this time, some Han soldiers were washing the inside and outside of the palace gate with clean water to clean up these blood stains. The people of Wang Xiancheng only watched from a distance, although no one stopped drinking, but those cold and shining crossbow arrows and Han knives reminded all of them that this is still a military forbidden area for the time being, and they can't get too close, otherwise one will accidentally lose his life, where to reason!

In this atmosphere mixed with all kinds of emotions and discussions, I saw a group of people dressed as real nobles, respectfully accompanying a few Han Dynasty generals in armor to walk out of it. As residents of the royal city, most of these nobles were well known, and they were basically ministers of the imperial court and important members of several large families. Among them are the Minister of State Choi-sama, the political counselor Lee Da-sama, the Han Da-sama, and General Hyun.

Since these people did not become prisoners, and they were so close to the generals of the Han army, it is enough to confirm that the rumor that they colluded with the Han army to sacrifice the royal city seems to be undoubted. But no one hated them, but many people looked at them with gratitude.

This is to blame them for being so ruthless and unrighteous, and they really have no "kindness" to repay King Wei. That's why this kind of crime, which should be a traitor, is regarded as an act of driving out violence and rescuing the people.

What made the onlookers feel a little strange was that these big people in their eyes, surrounded by many elite Han soldiers, stood at the gate of Jingyang Palace, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

Everyone's guess was correct, and soon after, a horse gradually came from the east side of the palace gate square. When they saw that the people waiting at the gate of the palace were looking towards that place, all eyes followed suit.

It was the direction in which the sun had just risen, and against the backdrop of a vigorous morning sun, the halo was a little unreal, and only two people were sitting on horseback. As the sound of horses' hooves approached the edge of the square, I finally saw the appearance of the comer.

Immediately, there were two people. The whip and the horse were held by a young man in a black cloak, who looked a little ordinary. And the other person is Rong Hua's peerless girl, with a graceful demeanor and a red gauze dress. The two of them walked slowly.

Although I don't know the identity of the person who came, this girl's beautiful face still made many people look a little daze, they automatically ignored the ordinary teenager, their eyes just moved with the figure, and they secretly admired in their hearts, how could this woman in Han costume be so beautiful! But you don't know where it came from?

In everyone's speculation, the horse stepped through most of the square, crossed the Han army cordon, and went straight to a place more than ten zhang away from the palace gate. To the surprise of the onlookers, when the people on the horse passed through the layers of checkpoints, not only did no one stop the checkpoint, but the elite Black Eagle Army knights who carried out the guard task actually showed excited looks on their faces, and they quickly sorted out their armor and clothing, straightened their bodies, and saluted the people on the horse with a salute!

What's going on? The thousands of onlookers were asking at the same time, could it be that the identity of the woman who came was very noble? These formidable Han soldiers had such respect for her.

But they were all wrong, and it was him, not her, who was extremely revered. The ordinary boy who was automatically ignored by them was the idol of these Black Hawk Knights.

The main figures of all the surrendered aristocratic families, led by Cui Mingzhen, are here today, and they are going to greet their general with the soldiers of the Han army, the one who is still destined to be the protagonist of today, although he did not personally lead the army into the city last night.

The waves wash the sand, and the merciless passage passes! At the most critical moment of the rise and fall of this family, who doesn't need to be quick-sighted! The sources in these aristocratic families are naturally extremely well-informed, and each of them has secret channels. Whether it was what happened in various parts of the city last night, or the great changes that took place on Yuntou Mountain a hundred miles away, they had already reached the ears of the main people of each family when the sky had just broken down.

Shocked, frightened, rejoicing, apprehensive, fearful of an unknown fate...... All kinds of emotions fill everyone's heart. They no longer know how to describe the general of the Han Dynasty who they have never met. However, in everyone's heart, Yuan Zhao is already a demon god-like existence, which is an undeniable fact.

With such emotions, they all stood here, at the main gate of Jingyang Palace, together with those proud Han army soldiers, waiting for their great general to arrive.

Although I have long heard that Shang Shuling, Da Sima, General Zhengdong, and Changle Hou Yuanzhao of the Han Dynasty are very young, but at this moment, when they really saw this person's true face, these nobles were still taken aback. If it weren't for the fact that the soldiers of the Black Eagle Army saluted the boy who jumped off the horse together, they wouldn't have believed that this gentle-looking and smiling boy was the one who had just done his heavenly deeds!

It's really unseemly, and the sea is incomprehensible! Cui Mingzhen secretly admired while leading people to follow and bow down. Yuan Zhao, who came over, praised Gongsun Rongnu with satisfaction, and then stretched out his hand to support the former minister of the country who saluted, with a smile on his face.

"Cui Xiang doesn't need to be polite! This time, you were able to take Wang Weicheng so smoothly, avoid the scourge of swords and soldiers, and reduce the misery of countless Li people, all of you have contributed a lot, and your contribution is great! I have long kept this in mind, and when the triumphal recital arrives before His Majesty the Emperor, there will be a heavy stroke of your life on it. Hehe! ”

Hearing this, Cui Mingzhen and others were overjoyed. They do not hesitate to carry such a betrayal with infamy, isn't this what they ask for!

"Thank you, thank you! The work of the small end is really not worth anything. Even without our people, with the might of a general, breaking the city and capturing the king is just around the corner! ”

They were polite to each other and the atmosphere was harmonious. Seeing that Yuan Zhao's attitude was so amiable, everyone was completely relieved. Hurriedly like the stars and the moon, he was going to welcome him into the Jingyang Palace to see the fruits of the victory. Yuan Zhao smiled and waved his hand, stopping their enthusiasm.

"Don't rush, just wait a moment. I have already sent someone to greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Han Dynasty on the boat of Jiangmian Tower, and when he comes, I will personally preside over the overall situation of the pacification and destruction of the feudal kingdom!" Hehe! ”

Cui Mingzhen and others were even more shocked in their hearts, it turned out that this time the Eastern Crusade, the Prince of the Han Dynasty also came! During the battle, he didn't hear a single rumor, and now that the fruits of victory were just waiting to be taken over, Yuan Zhao wanted to give this opportunity to the crown prince...... This person is not only invincible in martial arts, but also so skillful in human feelings and politics! His achievements are unimaginable.......
