CHAPTER XXVI
The light gradually brightened, the color between heaven and earth was between blue and white, and a few rays of light without temperature were cast on Zhong Zhiyu's face, looking cold and stubborn. This questioning slammed down on their hearts, making them feel ashamed.
Fu Zhengwei had a big alarm bell in his heart, and he also intuitively felt that Zhong Zhiyu had an indescribable convincing power, like a flame that dispelled the fog and warmed people's hearts.
Fortunately, among the 5,000 soldiers, at least half of them are close to his Fu family, even if they don't know the inside story, they will not be easily rebelled by what her little girl said.
"How do I know why you are treasonous!" Fu Zhengwei's henchman retorted, trying to bring public opinion back: "If I knew, wouldn't I be the king of Zhenbei?" Maybe you will do even better! β
This henchman is imposing, Zhong Zhiyu is not worthy of him, and said to the soldiers: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing, I believe that everyone can see the sweat and blood we shed for Dayu, and we will not be provoked by villains." β
Fu Zhengwei was so angry that his beard was about to stand up, but the pain in his hand was getting worse than a while, and the pain in his hand was getting worse than a while, so painful that his lips trembled and he couldn't speak.
No one wants to admit that they are stupid, and the scene suddenly falls silent.
Seeing this, Zhong Zhuoyu hurriedly hit the snake and said, "Let my father come over." β
Everyone's eyes looked at King Zhenbei in unison. Thousands of heads are turning at the same time, and it's a laughable scene.
King Zhenbei coughed, concealed his inner thoughts, and strode towards Zhong Shuyu. The soldiers consciously made way for him, and their faces were bewildered and at a loss.
The father and daughter converged smoothly, and Zhong Zhiyu hesitated for a moment in his heart, not knowing what to do next.
It is impossible to leave, and even if they leave, it will not help at this time, and the opportunity will be wasted, but what can they do if they don't leave?
Beiyi is eyeing outside, and the only one who has the strength to fight against Beiyi is these Tianzi Army. But they hesitated, but they would not cooperate unless they were fully convinced.
This matter is too brain-consuming, Zhong Zhiyu looked at his father and threw the problem to his father to solve.
King Zhenbei was also worried in his heart, he blamed himself for talking a few more words with the Fu dog thief and failed, how did he know what to do in this situation of not being up or down!
Oh yes, he usually asks for all the gods and Buddhas when there is an accident in his plan!
So Zhong Jianyu saw that his father's eyes suddenly lit up, and there were words in his mouth, what else could he hear about the Jade Emperor Guanyin Bodhisattva if he listened carefully, and even about the second master?
Zhong Zhiyu only felt that he was full of question marks, and Fu Zhengwei, who was close, was no less confused than her, if it was useful to ask for God and Buddha, why should people in the world study and practice hard, everyone went to worship Buddha and pray for God!
Fu Zhengwei endured the pain, and was about to open his mouth to laugh at the king of Zhenbei, who was admired by tens of thousands of people, when he heard a commotion outside the camp, not to mention thousands of troops, there were hundreds of thousands of people.
Before the people in the Tianzi camp could figure out what the situation was, they heard a familiar high-pitched voice shouting: "Lord Wang! The grass people have brought people to support you! β
Zhong Zhuyu and the two were overjoyed, and said in their hearts, didn't someone bring Zhong Jiajun back? They were all dressed in coarse cloth and brown cloth, and they were holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, including hoes, sickles, kitchen knives, and even rolling pins...... Each of them had a slewed face, but his expression was unusually excited and determined.
It's the people of Beiwang City!
The one who just spoke out was Zhou Hai, the young man who stopped the car when they first entered the city, and at this time he waved his arms desperately, for fear that the king of Zhenbei would not see him: "Lord Wang! The grass people know that you need help, so they quickly organize a powerful man to help you, don't dislike us! By the way, my dad is here too, and he's on the side...... Not! β
Old man Zhou saw that the more he talked, the more outrageous it became, he hurriedly gagged him, and said in his place: "The grass people know that Beiwangcheng is a little unstable, although we are not as good as the serious army, but we still have a lot of strength, and we can do our part for the general and Beiwangcheng!" β
"Yes, yes, yes!" The people agreed again and again, and you and I said one by one: "We believe that the prince will be able to help us defeat Beiyi and give us a stable life!" β
They were gossiping and noisy, and all at once they dispersed the originally tense atmosphere in the camp.
Zhong Shuyu's heart was extremely shocked, and the shock of the soldiers of the Tianzi Battalion was no less than her.
Although most of them come to the army to gild, who doesn't want to be admired by all the people? Who doesn't want to go down in history? The scene in front of them made their blood surge, and they unconsciously favored the king of Zhenbei in their hearts.
"General Fu, is there any misunderstanding? The last general felt that the prince did not look like a person who could collaborate with the enemy. β
The first soldier hesitated to speak, and the second and third soldiers boldly questioned, Fu Zhengwei's face was really black and could drip ink, he really didn't expect that the evidence would be conclusive and they could turn public opinion around.
"Do you still know that you are from the Tianzi Army!" Fu Zhengwei's henchmen shouted angrily: "A few casual words from others can shake your military heart, you are like this, how can the general rest assured that he will use you?!" How can the emperor use you with confidence!? β
The soldier who dared to question just now was stunned like this, and suddenly withered, and he didn't dare to speak out.
The scene was at a stalemate again.
This can't be done, the movement here is already very big, and if it drags on any longer, the Beiyi army will definitely come, and then there will really be no power to resist.
After Zhong Shuyu and King Zhenbei met and reached a consensus, they stabbed the hairpin through Fu Zhengwei's throat with a ruthless heart.
"It was he Fu Zhengwei who collaborated with the enemy and treasonββ!" King Zhenbei stretched out his voice, trying to let everyone present hear: "He ordered the Beiyi army to be released, and also set fire to my general's mansion, and there are even Beiyi dead soldiers who want to come to take the lives of my Zhong family. β
"Ahh Ahhhh......h
"You still say you're not a traitor! Hurry up and let our generals go! β
Fu Zhengwei's henchmen were anxious, and rushed forward to try to save Fu Zhengwei regardless of it, but was stopped by a long whip halfway.
"Nineteen!?"
Zhong Zhiyu looked at the people who came unexpectedly, but he was even more surprised to see a few people behind the people, Chunhe and Zhuzhu were still smiling at him. Two rows of white teeth were exposed, stupid.
Zhong Shuyu looked away, his eyes red and he didn't look at their stupid appearance.
Fu Zhengwei's henchmen were not the only ones, seeing that his master was about to die, they all stepped forward with weapons, and did not forget to win over some other neutral Tianzi troops.
"Even if our general does something wrong, but as a general, you can't use lynching casually, where are you putting the emperor? You are the evidence of treason! β
Zhong Zhiyu felt that he was about to die. Now that the Zhong family army is not there, they have to go to great lengths to subdue these neutral Tianzi army, and now that the two sides insist on their own words, they actually begin to waver again.
"Lord Wang, the Beiyi Army is coming soon." The secret guard of the Northern King of a town suddenly appeared in front of them, followed by the embarrassed Hung Claw.
King Zhenbei nodded to indicate that he understood, took a deep breath, and asked Zhong Shuyu in a low voice: "Baozi, do you know that the tiger father has no dog girl?" β
Zhong Zhiyu blinked, indicating that he didn't understand what King Zhenbei was doing, and replied hesitantly: "I know." It is the dragon that gives birth to the dragon, the phoenix that gives birth to the phoenix, and the son of the mouse will make holes. β
ββ¦β¦β
King Zhenbei was silent for a moment, decided not to hear, and solemnly patted her shoulder with a pair of big hands, and said, "Then Beiwangcheng will be handed over to you." β
"What?" Zhong Zhuyu's eyelids jumped, and he had a premonition.
King Zhenbei did not answer her, but took out the dagger on the waist of the dark guard, and said word by word to the Tianzi Army: "I, Zhong Yongnian, have fought everywhere all my life, serving the country and the people, and I have never done anything to be sorry for the country and the people. If you soldiers don't believe me, I can kill myself here on the spot, and I just ask you soldiers to drive away Beiyi and save Beiwang City for the sake of Zhong Mou's life! β
Zhong Zhiyu's pupils shrank in fright, and he didn't care about Fu Zhengwei, he raised his hand to grab the dagger. It's a pity that the king of Zhenbei was prepared, and after speaking, he stabbed the dagger into his left chest.
The knife was fast, but in an instant, the entire dagger was submerged, and only the hilt was outside, splattered with a little blood.
"Daddy!!"
"Lord Wang!!"
The people present panicked, but the king of Zhenbei only looked directly at Zhong Zhuyu, and held her hand tightly with his right hand.
This self-sacrificing righteousness really shocked everyone present, and they cried directly emotionally: "Lord Wang, we believe in you, don't you die, Lord Wang......"
Zhong Zhiyu knelt beside the body of King Zhenbei in a daze, and tried to block the blood that kept flowing out with his left hand, but he couldn't stop it... She suddenly found that she couldn't see in front of her, and when she raised her hand to wipe her eyes, she realized that she was crying.
The tears were hot, but the body was cold.
"What's going on so much?"
The Beiyi army came, and Dade looked at this farce with malicious joy in his eyes.
Zhong Zhiyu straightened up and looked at the visitor without any waves in his eyes.
"Oh? This is not the county lord's clock... What's the clock? Dad's smile grew: "I'm sorry, I can't remember the names of people who don't matter." β
"Yikes! General Fu, what's wrong with you? Dade seemed to have just seen Fu Zhengwei who was struggling on the ground, and said in surprise: "General Fu doesn't seem to be very good, in this case, I'll help you take over Beiwang City, I just wanted to come over to see Zhong Yongnian's tragic death and prepare to go back to Beiyi, this is really an unexpected joy." β
"Phew, go back to your Beiyi!"
A rolling pin flew through the air, but landed straight in front of Dad because it was too far away.
Zhong Zhiyu seemed to hear someone's sigh of disappointment.
Dade's eyes narrowed dangerously, and the Beiyi army also made a fighting posture.
But without waiting for them to react, Zhong Zhiyu took the lead in giving the order: "Kill me!" Sacrifice the prince with their blood! Drive them back to the steppe! β
"Kill!!"
All the soldiers responded in unison, as if they wanted to vent their unwillingness and anger.
Zhong Zhiyu turned over and stepped on the top of the military tent, commanding condescendingly: "The Tianzi Army is moving forward!" Zhou Hai, you are back! β
The Tianzi Army is also a regular army, so it naturally takes the lead in blocking the people behind.
But they only had less than 5,000 people, and even if you count all the civilian troops present, the number of them was not as large as that of the Beiyi army. At first, I was able to vent my emotions, but after a while, everyone found out that the situation was really unfavorable for their side.
At this moment, the people heard the calm female voice again: "Let the long weapons attack their horses, and the common army will protect them one-on-one, so that they can concentrate on beating their horses." β
Zhong Zhuyu took a spear and took the lead in demonstrating, only to see that the frightened horse was really difficult to control, and it would be much easier to attack the Beiyi people on the horse at this time.
Everyone followed suit, and the situation improved slightly.
This still doesn't work, the efficiency is still too slow.
Zhong Zhiyu watched the casualties on his side getting bigger and bigger, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
After a while, he simply ordered: "Don't fight!" Let's withdraw! β
This doesn't sound like a good decision, Beiwang City is so big, where can everyone evacuate? Do you want to give up Beiwang City like this?
Although everyone had their own plans in their hearts, they somehow believed in Zhong Zhuoyu so much, so everyone fought and retreated until everyone arrived near the General's Mansion.
"No way back?"
Dade looked at the people gathered in front of the general's mansion with disdain, ready to annihilate one by one, but he didn't want someone on the eaves next to him to suddenly splash water down.
Someone leaned to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and he panicked: "It's oil!" β
But it was too late.
A few secret guards led by Twilight Cloud and Hongclaw quickly threw down more than two dozen torches, and the flames turned into a fire, and the Beiyi army, which was still extremely arrogant, collapsed in a few moments.
This is the happiest of the people, one by one they take what they can throw at hand and desperately smash it, eager to gnaw their lives instead of this flame.
This was the first battle that Zhong commanded, and it was also the smallest but most chaotic battle. Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, she dared to let go of half of her heart.
Β·
The work of cleaning up the battlefield was also snatched away by the enthusiastic people.
Zhong Zhiyu sat in front of the bed with a bowl of black decoction, and looked at the leisurely Zhenbei Wang: "You're good!" Just fainted! Leave me alone on that battlefield, and you don't even know I almost messed up! Fortunately, I thought of Fu Zhengwei hoarding our oil! β
King Zhenbei smiled flatteringly: "If something doesn't happen, what if those people still listen to Fu Zhengwei's dog thief!" β
"Then you're not worried about me?"
"Daddy believes in you."
Zhong Shuyu was proud in his heart and wanted to hear more good words, so he pretended not to be confused and asked, "Why do you believe in me so much?" β
"Of course, it's because the tiger father has no dog girl!"
King Zhenbei straightened his back, his face full of pride.
Zhong Shuyu: "Hehe. β
