Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Proud Second Prince
"Oh, Mao Gong is here!"
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Where does the joy come from?"
The town guard dismounted, knelt on one knee, and said loudly: "Back to the commander, General Li encountered the scattered army of the second prince on the way to the road, and under the siege of our army, General Li captured the second prince!"
"Really?!Hurry, prepare the horse, Ben Shuai is going to meet Mao Gong!"
Zhao Yun's eyes lit up, and the thief who escaped was caught by Li Ji, which was indeed a great joy.
Li Ji had 60,000 Daxia town guards around him, and most of them were heavy cavalry, which were used to protect grain, grass and baggage.
Sixty thousand heavy horses, this is an extremely terrifying force!
Under the siege of the heavy cavalry, even the second prince who was protected by the master of the Nirvana Realm could not escape.
The capture of the second prince means that the entire southern battlefield has been half stabilized, and the rest of the things are much easier.
......
In the Taishou Mansion, Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang waited anxiously.
After a while, Zhao Yun's hearty laughter came from outside the mansion: "Mao Gong is a great talent! Now that the second prince has been caught, the southern battlefield is worry-free! In this battle, Mao Gong should be the first to make the first contribution!"
This is the voice of General Zhao, they are coming!
Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang's eyes lit up and they stood up one after another.
"Where, compared to Brother Zilong's exploits in attacking Linshan City at night and defeating 200,000 rebels, this small merit is really not worth mentioning. ”
A relatively unfamiliar male voice sounded, mature and steady, and the owner of Liu Taishou's voice that he could hear was a very humble person.
Zhao Yun and Li Ji walked into the outer hall of the Taishou Mansion together, and behind them, they were followed by several town guards wearing black heavy armor.
The town guards looked at a young man in a brocade blue robe with a loose hair, his face was handsome, his temperament was graceful and luxurious, but his eyes were extremely gloomy.
This young man is the second prince.
Sure enough, this General Li Ji really caught the second prince!
Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang looked at each other, overjoyed, and hurriedly approached, bowing their hands: "Xia Guan (the last general), I have seen General Li, and I wish General Li to capture the head of the thief, eliminate harm for Linshan City, and eliminate harm for the emperor." ”
"You're polite, presumably the two of them are Liu Taishou and Captain Li. ”
Li Ji hurriedly returned the salute and said with a gentle smile: "If there are no two people who swear to defend the city to the death, no matter how many soldiers Zilong and I bring, it will be useless, and the two of them will be great!"
Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang were flattered: "The general is polite. ”
They had already heard Zhao Yun mention that this General Li Ji was the minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion, and the Military Machinery Pavilion was now the most powerful institution in the entire court, and even in the entire Great Xia Dynasty!
It can be said that every minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion represents a part of the will of the emperor.
This person is the real power of the government and the opposition, and the power is not weak, and the three princes of the year, Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang are naturally a little restrained.
......
After the four of them were humble and polite, Zhao Yun beckoned Li Ji to sit down and instructed the servant to bring tea.
"In order to let Liu Taishou and Captain Li know the good news, I was in a bit of a hurry on the road, and I didn't have time to ask Mao Gong. ”
Zhao Yun took a sip of tea, raised his hand and pointed at the second prince, and asked with a smile: "Brother Mao, how did you catch this person?
"That's a coincidence. ”
Li Ji smiled, pointed to the second prince and said, "I led the army to hurry, and I wanted to rush to Linshan City earlier, so I deliberately bypassed the avenue and took a shortcut. ”
"Unexpectedly, yesterday, when they were approaching Linshan City, the scouts saw a group of people sneakily wandering around Linshan City, so they arrested them. ”
After some torture by the soldiers, Shun Teng found the second prince hiding near Linshan City. ”
Li Ji shook his head with a smile.
Each prince has his own identity certificate, most of which are the style of the royal jade pendant, the practice is exquisite, there is a secret method inside, which can prove the identity, and Li Ji, who is the minister of the Military Aircraft Cabinet, naturally knows the royal jade pendant.
"This ......"
Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang glanced at each other, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake their heads.
This is really a credit, and it can't be stopped, such a big battle feat will be directly smashed on Li Ji's head.
"Huh?"
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, a little unexpected, and continued to ask: "Then what about the casualties of our army?"
This is the issue that Zhao Yun is most concerned about.
"Casualties?"
Li Ji was a little confused, and then suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, when I met the second prince, he only had a few personal guards around him, and there were two Chaos Realm masters, and there were two Chaos Realm masters in the team I brought with me, and there were two thousand people in the team, three Chaos Realm. ”
"The heavy cavalry rushed to kill, not even the injured people, and directly captured the second prince, where did the casualties come from. ”
Li Ji's words made the second prince who was forced to kneel on the ground on the side very dissatisfied, and snorted coldly with a gloomy face.
If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to know how many of his 200,000 troops were left in order to probe the situation in Linshan City, how could he be easily caught by the scouts with the caution of the second prince.
"It's that simple. ”
Zhao Yun smiled dumbly, he originally thought that the second prince had a noble status, and it was not good to have a Nirvana Realm master by his side to protect him.
Although the Nirvana Realm master is not as powerful as the Legendary Realm master, and is not the opponent of the 50,000 heavy cavalry, it can also cause some casualties to the town guard cavalry.
Originally, Zhao Yun was mentally prepared and waited for Li Ji to report the battle damage, but he didn't expect that he didn't lose a single soldier, not even injured!
The second prince didn't even have a Nirvana Realm master, so he simply withdrew from the battlefield.
You're too cautious, aren't you?
Zhao Yun couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The second prince saw this group of people talking happily on the side, constantly ridiculing him about his affairs, and couldn't help but be angry.
The second prince had a gloomy face, and said in a low voice: "You guys, you are really presumptuous......"
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned and turned their heads to look at the second prince.
You're all prisoners, and you still want to play the majesty of the prince?
"What do you want to say?"
Li Jingyang looked at the second prince with some playfulness, and there was a bitter hatred flashing in his eyes.
It was this young man who killed the people of Linshan City with heavy casualties, if he weren't for the fact that he was a prince, Li Jingyang would have wanted to kill him on the spot!
The second prince ignored Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang's ill-intentioned eyes, he held his head high, puffed up his chest, looked at Zhao Yun and Li Ji, and said lightly: "Lone is the emperor's brother, the emperor's brother!
"Even if the king is victorious and defeated, for the sake of bloodline, the emperor will not kill Gu, at most he will put Gu under house arrest in the imperial capital. ”
"No matter what you say, Lone is also a king!
"As a courtier, don't forget your identity, you dare to talk about Lone unscrupulously, and let Lone kneel to face you, this is the following offense!"
The identity of the second prince is excited, resolute and indifferent: "Lone is the emperor's royal brother, you let Lone kneel you, this is a great rebellion against the emperor!"
He is right, the Su family is the most noble bloodline inheritance of the Great Xia Empire, he is a royal person, even if he is defeated, he should be respected as a child of the royal family.
"Presumptuous!"
When Liu Taishou had a strong temperament, when he heard this, he couldn't help but angrily reprimand: "You madman! You dare to call yourself the king! Do you know that the rebellion is to connect the nine clans!"
"You are presumptuous! Dare to yell at Lonely, what kind of system have you become!"
The second prince sneered: "Zhulian Nine Clans? Gu is Su Chen's imperial brother, if you want to Zhulian Nine Clans, then the emperor of the dynasty will also be guilty of the same crime as Gu!"
"This ......"
Everyone hesitated, and Li Ji frowned.
The second prince squinted his eyes slightly, looking at everyone with a sneer, he knew very well that his identity was very tricky for this group of people.
Lone's royal status is a hurdle that they can never overcome.
As long as you make good use of it, maybe there will be some opportunities to turn the tables, but you must suppress these people first.
The second prince, good at Qidao, known as Xiaozhi......
