Chapter XXIV
The new leader of the new dynasty, the former eldest prince's division appeared on the city wall with no face, and the more than 100,000 soldiers who survived the war have completely surrounded Xijing, the country of the new dynasty.
"Wu, what are you doing? Rebellion? "The eldest prince in a black royal robe, oh no, now it should be called the eldest king, looked at his younger brother under the city wall with a pale face, and asked without any momentum.
Below Hal frowned, looking at the eldest brother who had to hide behind the Golden Armor Lux even if he was standing on the city wall, he asked the soldier loudly, "Hejie!" I ask you, how did my father die? ”
The king's face turned a little paler, he subconsciously turned his head, but quickly said calmly: "Father is sick and dies!" ”
"Let me ask you again, why didn't my second brother and I know about my father's death!?" Hal was not satisfied with the eldest brother's answer and continued to ask.
The king subconsciously wanted to turn his head again, but soon plucked up his courage again, and said tremblingly: "Big... The armies are at war with the barbarians! If the news of his father's death reaches the front line, the army's morale will be unstable and... And how is it good? ”
After receiving the answer, Hal's brows furrowed even deeper, suppressed the evil fire in his heart, and continued to hold back his anger and asked, "Even if you can explain it well, then I'll ask you again!" Why is it so long since the war ended, and I still haven't heard anything! Why did the army hang in Shangqiu for a month? Why did you ascend to the throne? Where is my father's body? ”
The second prince's series of questions like thunder suddenly suffocated the air on the city wall, and everyone could see that the third prince was menacing, and they also saw clearly that the army under the city had completely surrendered to the feet of the third prince, and the king who had just ascended the throne had no deterrent power for them at all. As long as the king next to him says any wrong word, I believe that it will be the time for the soldiers to rise again.
How to say, the king has also been the second in ten thousand years for more than ten years, and the pride of being a prince is still there after all. was questioned repeatedly by the third brother who he didn't look down on before, and he didn't have any previous concerns, but scolded loudly: "Bold! The widow is the prince, the first king is gone, why not the widow ascend the throne? You led a large army to besiege Xijing, did you want to rebel? ”
The expected confession did not appear, and Hal looked at the half-brother with an expressionless face. He suddenly realized that the king in front of him, who had just ascended the throne, had no idea who was now occupying the sovereignty. The moment Hal took control of the army, he quickly understood why his brother was confident that he could compete for the throne with the eldest prince, who was already the prince.
In this world, as long as you have enough power, then the person on the throne is, to put it bluntly, just an ornament. After killing 310,000 captives, it was the first time Hal felt the taste of rights that never existed in his 'memory'.
I only heard Hal squint his eyes and look at the stupid big brother on the city wall, and his face once again showed the fierce eyes that only appeared when he killed the captives: "I only give you two days, if you don't open the city gate and surrender within two days, don't blame me for attacking the city!" You... This usurper thief! ”
After saying that, Hal ignored the pale faces on the city wall, and led the army to slowly retreat...
...
At night, another flying pigeon passed letter fell into the hands of Wen Zhong.
By candlelight, Gongsun Yu once again reported to Wen Zhong what Hal had done under the city walls today. After reading the contents of the letter, Wen Zhong sighed slightly: "Olivia! ”
"Huh?" Olivia gently stroked Bunzhong's cheek, "What's wrong?" ”
"You say... Am I really doing the right thing? Wen Zhong's face showed a miserable smile, "To be honest, I know it's the right thing to do, but I really hope I'm wrong." ”
Olivia looked at the letter in Wen Zhong's hand in a daze, and for a moment she didn't know how to answer Wen Zhong.
Wen Zhong quickly put away the miserable smile on his face, stood up straight, opened the window again, looked at the scenery outside, and said slowly, "Tonight... It's not calm! ”
...
Under the pressure of the army, the entire Xijing City was in a storm. Even if the army surrounded outside is not a barbarian, but are there fewer people in the chaos of the army?
It wasn't until the second half of the night that the soldiers on duty were very convinced that His Royal Highness the Third Prince outside the city had no intention of attacking the city. Almost all the soldiers defending the city had already guessed the outcome, and with the support of absolute military power, the newly enthroned king in the city had no bargaining chips at all. After two days, he will be able to resolve the entire rebellion on the throne without taking any chances, and His Royal Highness the Third Prince will not use swords to affect his statement.
But when a miserable scream sounded on the city wall, it completely broke the peace of Xijing City.
Hal walked out of the tent in gold armor, only to find that the city of Xijing in the distance had fallen into war. A large number of soldiers under his command have walked out of the barracks and are frantically attacking Xijing City. In a short time, the gate had already been breached, and the open gate swore that Xijing, the kingdom of the new dynasty, would never defend the third prince again.
"What the hell is going on?" Hal was a little angry, he had obviously ordered the whole army to be on alert, but not to attack Xijing City, but now everything was beyond his expectations.
I saw that the commanders of the battalions of the whole army were waiting outside his account, but it was the old man Cheng who spoke on the battlefield: "Your Highness, the life and death of the first king are uncertain, and the eldest prince is usurping the throne." Our veterans can't sit idly by, and please go into the palace and kill the puppet king! ”
"Kill the puppet king!" A large number of generals around Old Man Cheng shouted without hesitation, completely forcing Hal to rebel.
At this time, Hal also realized that this group of soldiers who followed him also wanted to be a minister of the dragon after all. Even the battle-hardened old man thinks so!
"Your Highness!" Gongsun Yu walked out from the side, holding Hal's sword in his hand, "Please enter the palace with a sword and sweep Xiaoxiao!" ”
Hal looked at the scene in front of him with a little pale face, and looked at all the generals in front of him with heavy breathing, and the generals were very cooperative, all kneeling on one knee, and shouted loudly: "Please Your Highness enter the palace with a sword and sweep away Xiaoxiao!" ”
The long sword in Gongsun Yu's hand was taken away, and when everyone raised their heads, they only saw His Royal Highness the Third Prince turning over his horse with an indifferent face and riding towards Xijing! The cavalry of the brigade escorted the third prince away, and a group of half-kneeling generals outside the tent slowly got up, stood on the ground and looked at each other, and finally put their eyes on Gongsun Yu's body, the scene... Seems a little weird...
