The snowflakes fell one after another, but the earth was scorched black, the Liao King's cloak was scattered, half of his silver-white steel armor was covered with blood, half of his red cloak was burned off by the fire, and the remaining rags hung crookedly behind his back.

His right leg was wounded, and the wound more than a foot long had just scabbed over, and blood was oozing out from time to time, and he finally dragged his heavy steps and moved with difficulty to a stone and sat down.

The King of Liao raised his eyes and looked around, surrounded by the corpses of the soldiers, frozen in the falling snowflakes, and lifeless.

"Holy ......"

Tang Huaixin knelt in front of the King of Liao, and cried bitterly, his original gray hair was as white as snowflakes, but he was as sad as a child when he cried.

The King of Liao looked at the battlefield expressionlessly, seemingly indifferent to Tang Huaixin's sadness.

"Is there any news of Du Ge Lao?"

After a while, King Liao finally muttered a question.

Tang Huaixin hurriedly stopped crying, wiped away his tears vigorously, and said: "The last time the flying pigeon passed the book was ten days ago, when Du Ge Lao had already approached Yongzhou and confirmed that Xu Rui's forward had conquered Shenzhou, and then we were cut off from contact, and there was no news of Du Ge Lao. ”

"Ten days ago, ......"

King Liao seemed to realize something, a complicated smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he muttered: "Ten days is enough time for Du Ge Lao to enter the southeast, but unfortunately I failed to defend the country, Du Ge Lao crashed into the net of King Wuling, I am afraid that it has ......."

As he spoke, King Liao's eyes flickered with tears, and the corners of his lips twitched slightly.

Tang Huaixin remembered that this old friend who had cooperated with him for half his life might have encountered an accident, and his heart was sour, and tears flowed out again.

King Liao blinked, held back the tears that were about to remain, and asked, "How is the situation on the battlefield?" ”

Tang Huaixin said: "Qiqi Shengshang, the last breakthrough also failed, we have completely lost the news of Long Shuai, and the enemy army has regrouped outside the valley......"

"Got it......"

King Liao waved his hand, interrupted Tang Huaixin's words, and said quietly: "Thinking about it, Long Yun is also under siege, and it is commendable to be able to do this step, although this kid is talented, he is still too young, and he is not the opponent of an old fox like King Wuling."

It's a pity, if you give me twenty years, no, even if it's only ten years, I can train him into a generation of famous marshals, and give the world a strong Great Wei who is not inferior to the period when his father was in charge.

There is no reason to talk about these things, just that, just ......"

"Holy Lord, the old minister just watched the change of the king flag of the ground array, and it seems that the lord will change."

Tang Huaixin said.

"Oh?"

King Liao was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and muttered: "This King of Wuling really can't wait for a moment, I am also the emperor anyway, but he doesn't even give me a chance to see me, in his eyes, what is the emperor?" ”

Tang Huaixin was stunned and said, "Why did the saint say this? ”

King Liao said: "King Wuling saw that my army had been wiped out, and then led the main force to continue north, and he didn't even want to waste a little more time on me. ”

Tang Huaixin was silent, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, there was a sudden earth-shattering shout outside the valley, Tang Huaixin's face was over, he glanced at the valley mouth, and exclaimed: "Shengshang, they have started to attack again, you get up quickly, let the guards protect you to break through to the back mountain!" ”

King Liao looked at Tang Huaixin expressionlessly and said, "There are not many horses, I will break through to the back mountain, what about you?" ”

Tang Huaixin had tears in his eyes and said with a smile: "The saint doesn't have to care about the old minister, if the saint can come here, the old minister is already content." ”

King Liao was slightly stunned, and said with a long sigh: "No need, there are less than two hundred guards left, and all of them are injured, it is impossible to break out, they have completed the mission of loyalty to Great Wei, let them survive." ”

"Holy!"

Tang Huaixin's face changed when he heard this.

The shouts of killing were getting louder and louder, and the enemy troops had already rushed into the valley.

Tang Huaixin didn't care about saying more, and hurriedly stood up, wanting to pull the King of Liao, but the King of Liao made a mistake and avoided Tang Huaixin's hand.

"Your ......, Holy"

Tang Huaixin suddenly looked at King Liao.

The King of Liao showed a rare smile and said: "Aiqing, I have also completed my mission, since the defeat has been decided, I am not like a lost dog, let me be decent and leave with the dignity of the emperor!" ”

"Holy ...... On ......"

Tang Huaixin's nose was sour, and he knelt down crying.

He didn't know that the defeat was decided, but it was his duty to protect the emperor, and he really couldn't face such a result.

"Aiqing doesn't have to be sad, manpower is sometimes poor, once I want to be worthy of my heart, I ascended the throne, guarding the country with the respect of the Son of Heaven, although I became the king of the dead country, I have no shame to face the ancestors and ancestors, but I died on the battlefield, and I have a clear conscience, in this life, I have no regrets!"

King Liao gently patted Tang Huaixin's shoulder and comforted him.

Tang Huai cried loudly, becoming more and more sad.

The King of Liao slowly stood up with the sword of the Son of Heaven, glanced at the army of the Southern Dynasty that was getting closer and closer, and slowly pulled out the sword.

"I lost to Destiny, but not to anyone!"

The King of Liao held the sword and pointed to the sky with a long roar, and then slammed the sword back to wipe his neck.

The bright red blood sprinkled on the white snow is like a brilliant flower, but along with the splendor is the passing of a life and the complete end of a short era.

The King of Liao fell to the ground suddenly, his eyes still looking into the distance, as if he couldn't rest assured that this land was about to change its flag.

"Your Majesty!"

Tang Huaixin roared, suddenly jumped up, and hit his head on the stone where the King of Liao was sitting, and in an instant, his brain was shattered, and blood flowed everywhere.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, but Da Wei was getting colder and colder.

In Changxing City, in the newly built Yong'an Palace, King Yu was anxiously pacing back and forth wrapped in a big coat.

I don't know what he's been through these days, but his appearance has changed dramatically compared to just a few months ago.

At this time, Yuwang was depressed, his body had lost a lot of weight, and his eye sockets and cheeks were deeply sunken, as if he was seriously ill.

Suddenly there was a violent footstep outside the palace gate, and Huang Zhengyuan walked in in the wind and snow.

"Ah, Huang Qing, you're finally here."

Seeing Huang Zhengyuan, King Yu's eyes finally had a little more brilliance, and he rushed to Huang Zhengyuan's side with a brisk step and took his hand.

"See the Holy One!"

Huang Zhengyuan still didn't have any waves, and saluted King Yu in a deep voice.

King Yu couldn't wait, and asked eagerly: "Huang Qing, is there any news of the war?" ”

Huang Zhengyuan nodded and said, "King Wuling's vanguard has already beaten the Winter Fence Fort. ”

"Defeated again?!"

King Yu sat down on the ground, and a touch of resentment suddenly climbed on his face, and he said angrily: "Sima Shang has lost 150,000 people, Huangdu has lost 200,000 people, and now Prince Bao has lost a whole 500,000 people, what use do I want them to?!" ”

Saying that, King Yu became more and more angry, clenched his fists and said: "Incompetence misleads the country, this is incompetence and misappropriation!" I will punish their sins, I will punish their sins! ”

Huang Zhengyuan sighed and said, "There is no need for the Holy Lord to punish the crime, Prince Bao has already died in battle......"

"What?!"

King Yu's face changed, as if he lost his mind in an instant, and muttered: "How could it be, how could even Prince Bao be killed in battle...... Could it be that Dawei is really in a catastrophe? ”

When he said this, Wang Shun stood in the distance, looking at Huang Zhengyuan, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and there was an extremely secret complexity.

Huang Zhengyuan naturally didn't notice Wang Shun's eyes, and he said to King Yu: "Holy Lord, I'm afraid that King Wuling's army will arrive in Changxing City in the near future, and the minister has an idea, or he can protect Great Wei." ”

"Huang Qing has an idea? Why don't you tell us about it? ”

King Yu was overjoyed when he heard this.

Huang Zhengyuan leaned into Yuwang's ear and whispered a few words.

"What?!"

Yuwang's eyes suddenly widened, and he couldn't help but exclaim.

Without waiting for King Yu to open his mouth to refuse, Huang Zhengyuan immediately knelt down, squinted his eyes and said, "Holy Lord, this is the only way!" ”

King Yu was shocked, and his face was colorless.

Huang Zhengyuan beckoned to the little eunuch beside him and said, "The saint is sick, quickly give the saint medicine." ”

The little eunuch had already prepared, and hurriedly walked up with a smoking gun.

When Yuwang heard the word "medicine", he seemed to immediately leave everything behind, grabbed the cigarette gun, and took a big gulp.
