In the grand dreams of many royal children, in addition to the throne of the emperor, it is undoubtedly the most desirable thing to grasp the authority of the world and create supreme glory.

In the more than 100 years since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there have been countless such ambitious people. Since the early years of the Han Dynasty, when Emperor Gaozu fought against the world, conspiracies and rebellions have never been cut off with the development of this dynasty.

In fact, in the cognition of many people of insight in the world, whether it is the bloody storm of Emperor Gaozu and the era of Empress Gao, or the later rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, the princes fought wars. Most people never thought it was the emperor's fault.

There is a seed of ambition in everyone's heart. If there is the right soil, it will quickly take root and sprout, and grow vigorously until the python swallows the sun, and the delusion is boundless...... Since they can't escape the law of this cycle of life and death, today, when it is the turn of King Yan and King Guangling, how can they be an exception?

With 20,000 soldiers in hand, entrenched in the royal city to grasp the opportunity, looking around, who has the ability to resist the will of the vast western continent where the Persians have been completely destroyed?

The people of the tribes scattered everywhere are a rabble in their eyes, and there is nothing to worry about at all. King Yan and King Guangling have no time or patience for those long-term pacifications, and their long knives and iron hooves will let these barbaric and backward peoples know what true iron blood and submission are.

In fact, their upfront strategy is very effective. In this world, it is natural for the weak to succumb to the strong. In the direction of the long knife, in the billowing smoke and dust, countless tribal people had to lower their heads and return to the track of their destiny.

It would have been a perfect plan. All these indigenous peoples should be tamed by force, and all of them willingly obey the royal decree. The so-called "people's desire" is the biggest reliance. So even if someone in the Han army camp wants to do something extraneous, on the premise that they have already occupied the name of righteousness, King Yan and King Guangling are full of confidence. They are sure that they will be held accountable for this, and they believe that most of the officers and men of the Han army will never dare to act rashly, let alone confront them with their swords.

This was their wishful thinking after they occupied the royal city. And for this reason, we have already made plans for the next step. Of course, under the reminder of their henchmen, they were also prepared for other things. Of course, there were unruly guys in the Han army camp, such as those led by Li Ling. If once they gather people and come to the royal city to fight, King Yan and King Guangling don't mind killing chickens and monkeys, and let them know that they are powerful by iron-blooded means.

And as it turned out, it was as expected. The Han army battalion still reacted quickly to Wangcheng's actions. Tens of thousands of soldiers approached the city, and in a hostile manner, raised their swords and arrows against their former comrades.

The king of Yan and the king of Guangling at the head of the city were first shocked and then delighted. Because they quickly realized that this was a great opportunity. As long as Li Ling, who is the leader, is killed on the spot, he will definitely be able to deter the whole army and achieve the goal of surrendering the army without a fight. Don't look at these tens of thousands of troops staring at the city, I believe that after seeing Li Ling being killed by powerful means, they will immediately retreat back to the Han army camp, and they will no longer dare to dispatch easily before the news of Chang'an arrives.

The conceited and courageous King of Guangling, recognized

In order to raid Li Ling with a nine-armed chain crossbow at such a short distance, the other party had absolutely no chance of surviving. Therefore, he activated this big killer without hesitation, wanting to solve the trouble once and for all. Thus paving the way for the next large-scale operation.

It's just that people are not as good as heaven. God is very fond of making jokes when people are at their most arrogant. He never seemed to want to see too smooth success. At this point, sometimes it is very fair to distinguish between good and bad people.

On that day, the sunset melted gold, and the twilight clouds merged. Under the vast sky, there was silence in front of the army. Many big men and women are boiling blood on horseback. I don't know who raised the long knife first and shouted in oblivion.

"Yuan Gong...... Wansheng! ”

Then, the hosts shouted, in unison. The fanatical mood, with the gaze of the eyes, no longer cares about anything, has been completely released at this moment.

"Yuan Gong Wansheng! Wansheng! Wan Sheng......! ”

The earth-shattering shout shook the snow on the peak of Luojia Mountain, and also stirred up the waves of the Broken Knife River. Only those who have followed that figure over the years can truly comprehend the immense passion contained in these simple words.

It turned out that unconsciously, this world-famous legend already had a god-like status in the army. He didn't have to give orders, he just stood there and looked at the clarion call for battle and the direction of the charge.

King Yan and King Guangling stood in a daze in the smoke and dust of the collapsed arrow tower, all they wanted to see was an illusion. The walls of the Persian royal city in front of you are very high. However, they can't wait to be hundreds of feet taller...... Maybe it's safer that way!

It's just a pity that the walls of the royal city will not grow taller on their own, and what they see is not an illusion. Through the smoke and distance, they, like the others in the city, heard the words in the wind clearly.

"Open the gates."

The simple five words that fell from the city were heard in the ears of more than 20,000 soldiers defending the city, but it was like being struck by lightning. Someone unconsciously threw away the knife in his hand, followed by a row of soldiers who pointed their blades inward and stuck them at their feet.

This may seem ridiculous, but it is real. The sword in the hands of the warriors was supposed to be a symbol of their glory. Even if he was seriously wounded on the battlefield and blood-stained robes, no one would casually leave them behind. But at this moment, they are willing to put away the knife for a person, and bow their heads, even if they will accept the punishment, no one has a trace of resistance.

King Yan and King Guangling, as well as the henchmen who followed them, looked at the scene in front of them, and couldn't help but turn pale and feel like ashes. King Yan looked intently at the figure immediately under the city, and he muttered to himself with an indescribable mood.

"Original...... He's alive! We waited for a big mistake to be made, and we regretted it...... There is a Yuan Zhao, everything is closed! ”

And the king of Guangling was pale, his eyes showed a decisive meaning, he glanced at the city, and gritted his teeth and said.

"Brother Wang, so far, don't fight to the death! Maybe there will be a silver lining...... ”

King Yan didn't speak again, he just smiled bitterly and pointed around with his finger, motioning to King Guangling to take a good look for himself. And in the eyes of many people looking at idiots, King Guangling finally discovered the different search on the city

Often.

"You ...... What are you people going to do? Hurry up and pick up the knife in his hand, as long as he guards the royal city, even if it is really Yuan Zhao, he will not dare to do anything to us! ”

"Your Highness, let's surrender. Yuan Gong has a decree...... The soldiers had to come from. ”

Some generals replied with their hands down, while most of the other soldiers were silent, apparently with the same attitude.

"You cowards! Brother Wang...... We've come this far, and he won't forgive us easily! Yuan Zhao's methods, think about how he treated King Jiangdu, King Langya and their people! Carry it to the end, maybe there is still a way to live. If you surrender at this point, I am afraid that there will be many bad luck, and your life will not be long! ”

King Guangling shouted a little frantically. However, no one at all obeyed his commands. In front of Yuan Zhao, not to mention the more than 20,000 soldiers defending the city, even in the entire Han army, no one dared to openly disobey orders.

Yuan Zhao, who was immediately under the slanting sun, only waited for a few breaths before the heavy gates of the Persian royal city opened. As if he had walked into his own courtyard, he shook the reins of his horse at will, and went straight into the royal city.

In front of the tens of thousands of troops behind him, Jiang Sheng, who served as a scout, took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the violent heartbeat. It was he who discovered the rebellion of the two kings at the first time, so he did not hesitate to brave the snow and cold to find the traces of Yuan Zhao. Because he knew that in the entire Western Expeditionary Army, only Yuan Zhao was safe and sound, so that he could stabilize the overall situation and eliminate any dangers and contingencies.

And in fact, it is. Yuan Zhao's casual instructions, although the wind is light and calm, are as heavy as mountains and rivers. Even this majestic and majestic royal city could not withstand its weight and tamed the city gates.

"The second king is not harmed?"

These two princes, who were full of fear and hatred in their hearts, finally saw the commander of the Western Expeditionary Army of the Great Han Dynasty and the official summons of the Han Kingdom again in the royal city they once controlled. And when the other party greeted them, the smile on his face didn't seem to change much.

"But there is no need to say more...... Whether you want to kill or chop depends on your word! Hehe, we want to be fine, but can we still get up unharmed? ”

King Guangling stared at Yuan Zhao with resentful eyes, he was always unwilling to accept his defeat. There seems to be a hint of luck in the words.

"Lord Guangling, it's not accurate for you to say this. In this matter, whether you are the prince of the Han Dynasty or an ordinary soldier, I have no power to decide life and death. Whatever you do, you will be judged by the laws of the Han Dynasty, and merit and demerit, crime and punishment will naturally be clearly distinguished. ”

"So, King Guangling and I won't die so soon?"

King Yan's brows moved, and a ray of hope rose in the depths of his heart. But seeing Yuan Zhao nodded, he didn't seem to think so.

"The future of the two princes is not something that can be decided casually. If my expectations are correct, I believe that it will not be long before an envoy sent by His Majesty the Emperor will arrive...... When the time comes, everything will be left to His Majesty's decision. ”

Yuan Zhao, who gave a clear answer, no longer paid attention to them. Mountains and rivers are thousands of miles, there are thousands of things, and there are many more important things waiting for him.
