Cloud Flame Empire, River Forest City.

"Zhang Chenghong, the guard of Helin City, pays a visit to the prince, and the prince is safe!" Zhang Chenghong respectfully knelt on one knee, the iron armor on his body also rattled with his movements, and the entire defenders of Helin City also knelt on the ground in unison, all of them showing a relieved look on their faces.

The soldiers and horses of the Youquan Sacred Domain came too fast, so fast that before the Cloud Flame Empire had time to react, the 300,000 male soldiers of the Youquan Sacred Domain had already approached the city, under the unstoppable soldiers of the Youquan Holy Son, only one day, the gateway of the Cloud Flame Empire - Xuanhuang Pass was captured, 30,000 defenders were killed 18,000, and the remaining 12,000 people were also killed after being captured, none of them were spared, and then, the deputy marshal Aguli and the vanguard officer Lin Kezi led an army of 100,000 to travel more than 200 miles in two days, and captured Yiyang City with the momentum of destroying the withering and decaying, and the defender Han Qianye was killed. Deputy General Xiao Tianya was injured in 13 places and fled to Fuyang City, a hundred miles away, and died of excessive blood loss after reporting the military situation to the defender Zhang Huaijiang, originally Zhang Huaijiang gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses in the city to resist the danger and defend, and it would not be a problem for the 100,000 vanguard army in the Youquan Holy Domain to hold on for a few days, but he did not expect that this Zhang Huaijiang was domineering on weekdays, but he was a greedy person who was afraid of death, and his face was scared green when he got the news. Seeing that Zhang Huaijiang did not return for a long time, it was expected that he must have fled for his life, and led the army to hold on at the critical juncture, but the news that the main general escaped from the battle still did not go away, the soldiers were demoralized, and they only defended for three days, and then the city was breached, more than 30,000 defenders were killed, 14,000 people were captured, and only 3,400 people escaped from Fuyang City, but unfortunately their fate may not be much better than that of their comrades who died in battle, and what awaits them is the ruthless pursuit of the Youquan Army.

Originally, in Helin City, up to the general down to the soldiers, in the face of the lightning offensive of the Youquan Army, they all felt that the future was dark, after all, Helin City was only two hundred miles away from Fuyang City, according to the speed of the Youquan Army, it would not take two days to arrive and think that it would take tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to face hundreds of thousands of Youquan Army that was more bloodthirsty than the wolf, one by one had no morale, and many people were even busy writing suicide notes, and now the six princes, known as the victorious generals, led an army of 200,000 thousands of miles to help, and they rushed all the way, and the ten-day journey was only seven days to arrive, With the protection of his life, of course his heart was relaxed, and he hurriedly took the suicide note that had not dried the ink into his arms one by one.

Shangguan Honglie, who was already domineering and domineering, was stubborn and stubborn at the moment, adding a bit of arrogance, dismounted with the support of a general, waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Excuse yourself from this false courtesy, where is Zhang Huaijiang, this king wants to see him!" ”

Zhang Chenghong hurriedly got up and led the way: "Lord Wang, please come with me." ”

Shangguan Honglie's face sank like water, he didn't say a word, Zhang Chenghong was worried in his heart, and at the same time, he couldn't help but secretly congratulate himself that he had detained Zhang Huaijiang, sure enough, when Shangguan Honglie came, the first thing he had to do was to see him, and according to Shangguan Honglie's temper, Zhang Huaijiang, who abandoned the city and fled for his life, was afraid that he would be more than lucky.

Coming to a fairly elegant house, the two teams of patrolling sergeants saw Zhang Chenghong coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Shangguan Honglie kicked the door directly in, and the two centurions who led the team were about to stop it, Zhang Chenghong hurriedly said: "Don't be rude!" This is His Royal Highness the Six Kings......"

Shangguan Honglie didn't have time to pay attention to this, so he really broke into the mansion, but saw that there were dozens of sergeants guarding the small courtyard, apparently to prevent Zhang Huaijiang from escaping.

Zhang Chenghong hurriedly followed up and said loudly: "General Zhang, His Royal Highness the Six Kings has arrived, don't come out quickly to pick it up!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a tall middle-aged man rushed out of the house in a panic, and knelt down with a puff: "The last general will see the prince......

Shangguan Honglie saw that there was no scar on this Huaijiang's face, and the clothes on his body were also very clean, it seemed that although Zhang Chenghong detained him under house arrest, he did not treat him in any way, obviously wanting to wait for his arrival to decide how to deal with him.

Shangguan Honglie resisted the urge to chop him with a knife and feed the dog, and said coldly: "Zhang Huaijiang, this king asks you, how many troops have been dispatched from the Youquan Demon Domain this time?" ”

There was a faint tremor in his voice, obviously suppressing his anger, all the generals knew that this prince's temper was as great as his reputation as a victorious general, and they all secretly prayed in their hearts, hoping that Shangguan Honglie would kill Zhang Huaijiang to vent his anger, but don't anger everyone.

Zhang Huaijiang knelt and didn't dare to raise his head, and said, "This ......"

A chill flashed in Shangguan Honglie's eyes: "This king asked you how many soldiers and horses the Youquan Demon Domain has dispatched, don't you understand?" ”

Zhang Huaijiang lowered his head: "The last general...... I don't know ...... end."

When Shangguan Honglie heard this, his fists couldn't help but clench hard, and everyone's hearts trembled.

"This king asks you again, at this moment, is the Demon Domain Vanguard Army in Fuyang City, or has it already sent troops to Helin City?"

Zhang Huaijiang's voice was very low: "The last general...... Ignorance. ”

"Then, when the Demon Domain army attacked Fuyang City, how did you organize resistance?"

Zhang Huaijiang's body shook suddenly, and he said in a trembling voice: "The last general...... The last general knew that the one who led the reinforcements must be the invincible prince, so in order to bring the battle report to His Highness as soon as possible, he handed over the defense to the deputy general, so he rushed to the ...... overnight."

Everyone shook their heads secretly, who doesn't know Shangguan Honglie's temper? If Zhang Huaijiang happily admits that he escaped from the battle, and says that he will leave a whole corpse for him if he doesn't write Shangguan Honglie, but now he is still talking about what war report, I'm afraid ......

But seeing Shangguan Honglie take a deep breath, he said calmly: "Okay, very good, the number of enemy troops who came to attack, you don't know, where the enemy army is going, you don't know, the enemy army is attacking the city, as a town guard general, you abandon the city and flee, and keep saying that it is to send a battle report to this king, what do you want to tell this king?" What do you know? You don't want to tell this king that the Youquan Demon Domain is coming, right? If this is your battle report, then the king tells you that even every pig in the capital already knows it! ”

Everyone was awe-inspiring in their hearts, Shangguan Honglie was angry, but if the anger turned calm, it meant that he was going to die, or an enemy, or his own people.

Zhang Huaijiang, who was kneeling on the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and kept shouting: "The prince is gracious, the prince is gracious......"

Shangguan Honglie glanced at him with disdain, as if looking at a fly: "Zhang Huaijiang, as a heavy general of the town, has received the grace of the country, but he escaped from the battle at a time of danger, so greedy for life and afraid of death, what is the use of leaving you?" Come, pull this person down, behead the public, and the corpse for three days to set an example! ”

"Lord, lord, don't kill me, you let me make meritorious service with my guilt......"

When Zhang Huaijiang heard Shangguan Honglie's order, his soul flew away in fright, and he hurriedly crawled over and wanted to hug Shangguan Honglie's leg, but was stopped by two partial generals.

"Don't kill you, hmph, go ask the soldiers who died in Fuyang City yourself!"
