Chapter 68: Emperor Li vomits blood
Xu Han originally thought that Jiang Yao, as the prime minister of a country, would show a bit of the temperament of a celebrity in the face of death.
He didn't expect that this Jiang Yao had thrown away all his disguises under his long sword, revealing such an unbearable true face.
The so-called celebrity is not only a villain, but also a coward.
Xu Han sneered in his heart.
"If I'm not mistaken, after the battle of Yunlin, it was you who slandered Li Zhenwei and harmed me, are you sarcastic about the poor memory of the general."
As he spoke, Xu Han dangled his sword towards Jiang Yao's face, making a posture that could cut off his head at any time.
Jiang Yao was shaken by the sword, cold sweat rolled on his forehead, but he still grinned and said: "How dare Jiang, in fact, I was also confused at the time, and I regret it very much afterwards, Jiang apologizes to the general here, and hopes that the general will forgive Jiang's sin." β
As he spoke, Jiang Yao leaned over and made a gesture.
He wanted to give it up, but he forgot that his hands were tied, so he had to bend straight and straight, which looked extremely funny.
When everyone on the left and right saw this, they all laughed secretly.
If you have revenge and don't take revenge, you are not a gentleman, let alone a villain like Jiang Yao, how could Xu Han be soft-hearted because of his words.
"If an apology is useful, what's the use of a sword!"
Xu Hanjian raised his eyebrows, and on his knife-like face, the decisive killing intent suddenly surged.
Seeing that Xu Han was unmoved and still wanted to kill himself, Jiang Yao was so frightened that his smile shattered, and his face was sweating like rain.
Facing the slowly approaching sword blade, Jiang Yao was terrified and shouted: "Xu Han, I am an important minister of the Yi country, if you dare to kill me, Your Majesty will be furious, and when the soldiers will press the realm, you will die without a place to be buried!" β
Jiang Yao's face became very fast, and he returned a smiling face, and in the blink of an eye, he began to speak viciously and threatened.
His voice fell, and Lin Ao next to him couldn't stand it, so he punched it with a "bang": "Capricious villain!" β
Lin Ao's punch was extremely heavy, and he beat Jiang Yao to the ground, except for some fainting, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth, and a broken tooth actually fell out.
"Xu Han, Lin Ao, you, you ......"
The blood was rolling, and Jiang Yao, who was in pain, stared at them in front of him hatefully, and he didn't know what he was scolding with a vague mouth.
Xu Han was no longer interested in looking at Jiang Yao's ugliness, and the long sword was raised, and he put on a beheading posture.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the moment when the head hit the ground.
The long sword hung high for a moment, but Xu Han suddenly put down the sword again and handed it to Lin Ao: "This evil breath will let you out." β
Lin Ao couldn't help but look stunned.
Xu Han didn't just want Lin Ao to vent his hatred, but also to let Lin Ao prove his sincerity in submission.
Once Lin Ao kills Jiang Yao, he will completely cut off his retreat, and Li Zhenwei will not forgive him no matter what.
Of course, Lin Ao knew Xu Han's intentions, and at the first moment, he couldn't help but hesitate.
However, it was only a little hesitation that Lin Ao happily took the long sword handed by Xu Han.
The eldest husband, since he should be vigorous and resolute, he is also decisive, and he can regret it again.
Lin Ao's eyes were full of murderous aura, he took a deep breath, and raised his long sword high.
At this time, Jiang Yao's legs were weak, and he fell to his knees, his face surging with despair, his mouth was pleading for a while, and he was scolding for a while, and he was already so frightened that he was incoherent and delirious.
Lin Ao glanced at Xu Han, Xu Han nodded slightly, signaling that he didn't have to hesitate anymore.
"Villain, go die!"
With a loud shout, the long sword in Lin Ao's hand roared down.
Hearing only the sound of "poof", Jiang Yao was already in a different place.
After killing Jiang Yao, Lin Ao felt an indescribable relief, and a calm smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
Lin Ao proved himself, and Xu Hanzi was also pleased, so he patted him on the shoulder and said with a proud smile: "Good brother, let's go, let's go back to Shencheng, and we will get drunk with you today!" β
"Accompany me to the end, haha-"
Capture Li Li, kill Jiang Yao, harvest Lin Ao, harvest the rich Xu Han Spring Breeze proudly, and set up a banquet in Shencheng on the same day to celebrate.
Soon after, Xu Han sat in Shencheng again and divided his troops to capture Huaishang counties.
Huaishang County, Xi'e, Bowang, Li, Xi, Wuyang and other counties, after Deng Yinshuo's defeat, originally planned to surrender to Li Zhenwei.
Now that the counties heard that Xu Han had gone to Shencheng and destroyed the prestige of the Yi army, they were shocked, and they all turned to Xu Han.
The rest of the eastern tribes blocked Yang and pheasants surrendered to Li Zhenwei and other counties, and they were afraid of Xu Han's military might, and they also defected one after another.
Xu Han divided his troops to garrison several key counties, but the rest of the counties ordered the local officials to perform their duties.
In more than ten days, Xu Han has basically occupied the entire Huaishang, except for Ye and Luyang, which are close to Kaifeng in the north, and Deng and Jiangyang in the south, which are close to Luoyang, and other counties, Xu Han has possessed most of the more than 30 counties in Huaishang.
At this time, although Li Zhenwei was powerful, the armies of Shanchun City were exhausted, and most of the soldiers and horses were divided to control the territory of Xuan State, and the 20,000 soldiers and horses of Shencheng were defeated, in fact, there were no more soldiers to recruit Xu Han.
Considering that Li Li was in hand, Li Zhenwei threw a mouse trap, and it was less likely that he would attack Huaishang in a short time, so Xu Han left Tang Mo and Yi Xian to lead thousands of troops to defend Shencheng, and he led the triumphant army south to return to Qianyang.
Xu Han's return caused the entire Qianyang City to boil again.
When Xu Han led his army on the expedition, few people believed that he could win.
The people of Qianyang all know that Emperor Li of the Yi Kingdom is different from Han Zhaofu, he can even defeat the Xuan Kingdom, and the territory of Emperor Deng of the Xuan Kingdom borders the Luoyang of the King of Han, and he is precisely a very powerful figure that makes Han Zhaofu fearful.
However, Xu Han did win, not only defeated tens of thousands of Yi troops, but also captured His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Yi Kingdom.
When this miraculous fact was transmitted, the people of Qianyang hardly believed it to be true, until Xu Han, riding a black horse, proudly stepped into Qianyang, and they were convinced that this miracle had really happened.
Countless soldiers poured into the streets to welcome the return of the triumphant army, and they wanted to see Xu Han's divine might.
Under the gaze of thousands of pairs of eyes, Xu Han calmly drove his horse slowly, enjoying the admiration and awe of everyone, and enjoying the glory that belonged to him.
When Qianyang City was jubilant, the Kaifeng Palace, hundreds of miles away, was deserted.
In the palace of Nuoda, except for Li Zhenwei, there is no one.
Li Zhenwei was wearing gold armor and holding a sword in his hand, passed through the empty hall, and walked up the imperial steps step by step.
The delicate and solemn throne was imprinted in Li Zhenwei's eyes, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
Li Zhenwei slowly turned around the throne, his hand stroked the carved dragon jade carving, he looked up, the palace door was tightly closed, and the candle flame illuminated this magnificent palace.
"Emperor Deng's throne, but so ......"
As soon as Li Zhenwei's words fell, the door of the main hall was suddenly pushed open, and no one waited for the word to be passed on, so he broke in without permission: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, Shencheng is defeated, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was captured by Xu Hanββ"
Li Zhenwei, who was waiting for Long Yan to be furious, suddenly surged with infinite horror when he heard this amazing news: "What did you say? β
The one who broke into the hall was Chen An, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
Since Ling Zirui betrayed and took away Li Zhenwei's intelligence network, Li Zhenwei appointed Chen An to replace Ling Zirui in charge of intelligence collection.
Being drunk like this by Li Zhenwei, Chen An's body trembled, and he was busy reporting the detailed information of the battle of Shencheng to Li Zhenwei with trembling.
Li Zhenwei listened and listened, his face had become iron-blue, and his eyes were filled with anger that he had never felt before: "Lin Ao dares to betray me, hateful, hateful!" β
"Lin Ao and Xu Han have always had an excellent personal relationship, I think it was Lin Ao's betrayal that caused His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be defeated and captured, Jiang Xiangguo He had raised suspicions before, but he didn't expect to say it seriously, Jiang Xiangguo had been killed by Lin Ao......"
In a few words, Chen An put all the reasons for Shencheng's defeat on Lin Ao, there was no way that he was also in the same vein as the prince, so he naturally had to hide it.
Li Zhenwei thought that his eldest son's life was in danger at any time, and he was extremely angry, and when he opened his mouth, he spewed out a stream of blood arrows, and he felt dizzy and his body was shaky.
"Your Majesty!"
Chen An was shocked, and hurriedly pounced on him, and grabbed Li Zhenwei before he fell to the ground.
When I looked at Li Zhenwei again, I saw that he had fainted.
"Come on, quickly pass on the imperial doctor, ...... quickly"
