While he was complacent and led the army back to the old nest of Zhenxi Fucheng, on the bank of the Xionghe River in the hinterland of the Eastern Kingdom, there was a once powerful hero who had reached the end of his rope. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This hero's name is Wang Youcheng.

The defeat in the Battle of Wan'anping was a big blow to Wang Youcheng, not only did he lose almost all of his descendants, but the powerful force of the beast clan completely scared his guts! He will never have the courage to fight the orc army head-on again in this life!

So for him, fleeing became the only option! Therefore, after escaping from Bei'an, no matter whether there was an orc army behind him, he was desperate to escape!

In order to survive, he abandoned the treasures that were taken out of Bei'an, the wounded soldiers who had been following him, his wife and children, and even many "important ministers" were sacrificed by him as outcasts!

Now, there are only more than 2,000 remnants of soldiers and a few henchmen such as Cao Yihoo and Qian Dabiao who are still with him!

Speaking of Qian Dabiao, there is still a past to talk about, after escaping from the isolated city of Dingzhou with Dingzhou Zhizhou Ni Guozheng, Qian Dabiao did not act with Ni Guozheng again, but rode alone in the direction of Jingshi, intending to stop it before the decisive battle occurred!

However, he was still a step late, and when he arrived, the decisive battle had ended, and the beast alliance army was chasing and killing Wang Youcheng's remnants.

It's just that he knew that the general trend was gone, but Qian Dabiao still didn't give up Wang Youcheng's idea, he avoided the beast army, and at the same time traveled day and night, rushing to where Wang Youcheng was as much as possible, and finally reunited with Wang Youcheng before he led the remnants to escape from the division.

However, the reunion of the two brothers did not bring any change in the situation, and then Qian Dabiao just followed Wang Youcheng all the way south and finally stopped on the bank of the Xionghe River.

As for the whereabouts of Dingzhou Zhizhou Ni Guozheng, after leading the remaining Dingzhou soldiers and civilians to successfully break through, this Zhizhou Xianggong did not flee south, but used his influence to gather people in the Sili area to continue to resist, although in the face of the powerful beast alliance army, his righteous army suffered heavy losses, few victories, and was driven out of Sili by the beast alliance army, but this Zhizhou Xianggong has always insisted on resisting and refused to give up, and now his righteous army has become one of the largest anti-war forces in the hinterland of the eastern country!

……

On the north bank of the Xionghe River, Tingcheng, in the middle of the night.

Wang Youcheng was sitting in the county hall that once belonged to Tingcheng Zhixian at this time, but it was different from the previous time when he always had to enjoy himself in the Kefu of Raiding Zhou, at this time Wang Youcheng had neither beauties nor good food and wine, and the entire public case in front of him was empty, and even the signing bucket and the shocking wood were gone.

Just as deserted as the public case was the court itself, there were only a few people standing in the huge public court, and these people, like Wang Youcheng, had weathered faces and frosty faces, and their ragged clothes and torn armor made them look depressed and desperate, looking like a few dead trees that were about to die.

Compared with when he was in Beijing, Wang Youcheng looks a lot older, his original black hair is now a lot more white, and his face is no longer as radiant as it used to be, not only covered with wind and frost, but also haggard and emaciated a lot, not to mention his eyes, now Wang Youcheng looks like an old man in his last years, his eyes are already cloudy......

"Xiangguo, originally you sent an envoy to the Southern Dynasty to return, I should have let you rest for a few days, but now the beast captives are pressing step by step, and they are about to hit the edge of the Xionghe River, the military situation is urgent, I can't care so much, I can only call you in the middle of the night, I hope you won't blame me." Wang Youcheng said in his hoarse voice to Cao Yihoo, who was standing at the top of the civil official train.

Cao Yihoo knew that Wang Youcheng was just fake politeness, so he smiled bitterly and replied: "The emperor is serious!" The minister only crossed the river back and forth twice, and he didn't have to row the boat himself, so what was the fatigue? Moreover, no matter how tired he is, when the mountains and rivers are broken and Shenzhou is overturned, how can the minister dare to rest? ”

"Xiangguo is really the minister of the old Cheng country!" Wang Youcheng first praised Cao Yihoop, and then turned to the topic: "What does Yun Chongming say?" Are we allowed to cross the river and take refuge? ”

Cao Yihoo nodded: "Yes." But ......"

Hearing the word "Yun", Wang Youchang breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't care much about the turning point after that, and asked with a smile: "But what?" ”

Cao Yihoo glanced at Wang Youcheng and replied: "But the emperor, you are no longer allowed to hold the military power, Yun Chongming means that you will be given the position of marquis, and you will enjoy the glory in Nanjing City from now on!" ”

Wang Youcheng had been mentally prepared for this for a long time, and agreed without hesitation: "I have no problem." But what about you? ”

"We can continue to stay in the army and serve the Southern Dynasty!" Cao Yihoo replied, "Right now, the beasts are approaching Xionghe, although there is a natural danger in the Southern Dynasty, but the soldiers and soldiers are unusable, it is the time to employ people, we will vote, how can Yun Chongming not accept it happily?" ”

"Hmm." Wang Youcheng nodded slightly, and a look of relief appeared on his face, "In this way, our big guys will be settled." ”

"Big brother, I'm not going to make a dog for Yun Chongming! Let's continue to follow you, you can give a place as a housekeeper! Qian Dabiao grinned.

Wang Youcheng smiled helplessly, stretched out his hand and nodded some money Da Biao: "Da Biao, you are different from me, I have been an emperor, Yun Chongming can't and dare not let me lead troops anymore, but you can!" As long as you make military achievements in the future, you may not be able to pay homage to the prime minister, so why bother to practice yourself like this? ”

Qian Dabiao shook his head: "Big brother, the reason why we rebelled back then was because we couldn't survive under the rule of the Yun Dynasty!" It can be said that we all have a common enmity with the Yun Dynasty! The current situation is compelled, and it is just a matter of having to defect to the Yun Dynasty, but if I want to die for the Yun Emperor, it is a fantasy! ”

Seeing that Qian Dabiao was so resolute, Wang Youcheng couldn't force it anymore: "That's it, everyone has their own ambitions!" As long as the beasts can't defeat Xionghe, our brothers will enjoy the blessings of the Southern Dynasty in this life! ”

"Da Biao obeys the orders of the eldest brother!" Qian Dabiao bowed to Wang Youcheng to the ground.

Cao Yihoo looked at this brotherly drama coldly, his face was indifferent, but he was very disdainful of Wang Youcheng and Qian Dabiao in his heart.

"After only failing once, he fell into this virtue, God is really blind, and he let such a person be the emperor! You are going to be a rich man, but I, Cao Yihoop, will not give up, even if I want to serve the Yun family's court, I Cao Yihoop will fight like a person! ”

……

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, more than a dozen military ships came from the south bank of the Xionghe River and docked at the pier in Tingcheng.

Wang Youcheng and others did not doubt him, and led the remnants to board these military ships.

The process of crossing the river was calm and there were no accidents, until they went ashore and were led into Nanjing City by the officials of the Yun Dynasty, and there was an unexpected situation!

According to the arrangement of the officials of the Yun Dynasty, Wang Youcheng and other big leaders will directly enter the palace to meet Yun Chongming, while more than 2,000 rogue people will go through the far gate to enter the city and settle in the military camp in the city. It was only when more than 2,000 remnants of the Liukou army entered Weng City, which was at the Tongyuan Gate, that they found that the third gate of the Urn City had not been opened! The first gate was quickly closed as soon as they all entered the city!

Here's what happened, there are a total of three gates in Tongyuan Gate, a total of two connected urn cities, when the rogues enter the first urn city, the situation is normal, the front and back two city gates are open, but when they enter the second Weng city, they find that the opposite city gate is closed, and at this time they have all entered the urn city, and the first city gate behind them is also closed!

There is no doubt that this was a well-prepared ambush!

A gong sounded, and countless crossbowmen suddenly appeared on the originally empty city wall, and the strong crossbows in their hands had already been bowstringed, and at the moment of appearance, they were aimed at the rogues in the urn city.

"Yun Chongming, I'll you......!"

Before a rogue officer present could completely utter his angry scolding, ten thousand arrows were fired on the city wall!

"Buzz !!"

Thousands of powerful crossbows fired at the same time and converged into a huge hum!

The second half of the rogue's angry scolding was forever blocked in his chest, and he just looked down at the several still trembling crossbow arrows stuck in his chest, and his eyes went black, and he fell to the ground!

And beside the rogue officer, there were countless rogue soldiers who had fallen at this time, and although they were dead, many of them still had their eyes wide open, staring straight at the sky, as if they were still pouring out their unwillingness and anger in their hearts......

For the sake of safety, the crossbowmen of the Yun Dynasty fired more than a dozen volleys at the corpses in the urn city in a row, until the corpses of the rogue soldiers turned into a hornet's nest and the blood gathered into a lake in the urn city, so they stopped shooting, opened the city gate, and began to clean up the corpses.
