Therefore, there was another faction of courtiers who opposed it, and they were sure that the Brown Army would not be able to defeat Sanlongjiang at all, and it would not threaten Shengyi. The reason is that the court army has already moved south to resist the enemy, and the Zhenbei army is also chasing behind the enemy, and it will soon be able to attack from the north and south to destroy the brown army on the riverside.

King Wei listened to their noise every day, and then looked at the battle reports from the south, and there was no good news, and he became more and more upset. Today's eyelids are beating hard, and I always feel that something big is about to happen.

Just then, the guards rushed in, held a battle report high above their heads, and presented it to him.

The battle report was only a few short sentences. King Wei glanced at it, his face changed greatly, his body shook for a while, and he seemed to have no strength to stand up straight.

The guards hurriedly moved to help.

King Wei's voice was hoarse, and he hissed: "Convene a court meeting, quickly, quickly!" After thinking about it, he suddenly called the names of several important ministers, and then said, "Forget it, just find these people to come to the study." ”

At this point, his back was wet.

Liao Qing was tortured, and it was difficult to move, but then he suddenly raised his head and smiled at him.

Seeing him like this, King Wei's horror turned into anger, and he wanted to punish him again, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his mind again: "Treat his wounds, treat him well, and then clean him up." "Torture was added, and in the dark prison, Prime Minister Liao Chengxiang was ulcerated, and he was already dying.

Hearing this, he suddenly looked up, his eyes surprised.

King Wei met his gaze, and then said, "Leave this old guy and his three sons, and the rest of the Liao family—" He paused for a moment, "All of them are beheaded." ”

Taking hundreds of lives, from his mouth, it is as prosaic as slaughtering chickens and sheep.

Prime Minister Liao didn't know where he got the strength to turn over and sit up, yelling, and the shackles on his body rattled. But he has a tongue that is half short, and no matter how he speaks, he is slurred and cannot be heard.

King Wei beckoned: "Paper and pen." ”

Someone took out paper, pen and ink and put it in front of Prime Minister Liao. The latter was excited, and the hand holding the pen kept shaking-

"Xiao Jing, you can't die well!"

The Liao family was locked up a few feet away, and they wailed loudly when they heard the words, some begged for the grace of the king, some begged for Liao Cheng's confession, and some cried and abused.

The order of the king of Wei must be carried out immediately.

In this noise, King Wei's face turned pale, and he said coldly: "I really don't understand, for the sake of a fake, how can you be willing to sacrifice hundreds of lives in the Liao Mansion?"

Prime Minister Liao's eyes were split, and he couldn't wait for hatred to turn into a sword, slashing the people in front of him with thousands of knives. He then wrote: "That's my grandson! Your country belongs to my grandson!"

"No way! Your grandson died two years ago. King Wei looked at him and sneered, "You are really crazy!"

Prime Minister Liao ran out of strength and slowly slid back down. The cries of his family were like steel needles piercing into his heart, making him tremble like chaff.

He gasped for breath, suddenly stared at King Wei, and showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Whether it's true or not, you'll soon find out. “

He laughed twice and wrote, "Xiao Jing, your anger is exhausted!"

King Wei stood up suddenly, pointed at the executioner on his side and said, "After the Liao family is killed, show him the heads one by one!"

The air there was so bad that King Wei felt dizzy and stuffy after staying for a while, and he didn't necessarily have a clear mind when he came out to breathe a few breaths of fresh air.

He stood in a daze for a while, until the eunuch came to report, and several ministers were waiting for him in the study.

......

In the study, King Wei handed over the news he had just received to several ministers to circulate, and then watched their faces quickly turn pale.

This is big bad news.

On the bank of the Sanlong River, the Ting army was fighting a fierce battle with the Brown Army, and the Zhenbei Army arrived.

The two armies met, and the court army was jubilant, but the Marquis of Zhenbei suddenly changed his face, restrained the generals of the court army, and seized the command. It stands to reason that this is not a soldier he brought out, no matter how famous Han Zhao is, the army should not buy it.

But at this time, he sacrificed a killing move:

He actually respected the twelve-year-old Xiao Mi, the little prince of the country, as the king, and raised the banner of "respecting the rich and seeking evil", pointing out that the current king of Wei killed his father and brother, was brutal and warlike, and was not worthy of being the king of a country.

The two generals of this court army had met the little prince himself, one resolutely refused to admit it, and the other quickly submitted to the Marquis of Zhenbei, or rather, to the little prince.

As early as when the Zhenbei Army rebelled, the Brown Army stopped attacking. Mao Dingsheng met the little prince and bowed down in obedience.

So the Brown Army and the Zhenbei Army converged together, crossed the Sanlong River without much effort, and went straight to Shengyi!

The Marquis of Zhenbei, the god of the patriotic army and known as the pillar of the country, actually raised troops and pointed at Shengyi!

Before that, no one doubted his loyalty. The Marquis of Zhenbei led the army from north to south, from south to center, and always worked conscientiously to fight for the defense of the country, and never complained about hardship. Therefore, the depth and breadth of the shock caused by this uprising is likely to be the most violent in the past hundred years of defending the country.

At this time, King Wei finally understood why the Brown Army appeared in the hinterland of the country.

If it weren't for the intention of the Zhenbei Army to let him go, what would Mao Dingsheng do to fly over such an iron wall? He didn't know what else Han Zhao had done, and he could actually let the Brown Army go all the way north without attracting the attention of the officials, until he showed his fangs and robbed the two big cities, and others knew that the Brown Army was coming.

The Brown Army and the Zhenbei Army, his two major troubles, are now actually complicit!

The Brown Army was in front, and the Zhenbei Army was behind, and they went north for hundreds of miles on the pretext of pursuing the rebels. When they crossed the Sanlong River, Shengyi lost its biggest moat.

At this time, the Zhenbei Army was only sixty miles away from the national capital!

The timing of the Marquis of Zhenbei to announce the world in the name of the little prince was exquisitely chosen. He must want to take advantage of this explosive news to stir up the shaking of the patriotic government and the opposition at the same time to step up the march and continue to wave his army north!

The foot range of the Zhenbei Army is excellent, and it only took more than half a month to rush from the north to the southeast front and cross the entire defense of the country. Now this is only sixty miles, isn't it just a blink of an eye?

Of course, such a major matter must be put to the court to say, but before that, King Wei has to hold a small meeting first.

He was to ask the ministers for their opinions.

Uncle Yao Liyan immediately stepped forward and said in a tight voice: "The soldiers are coming to the city, and the king should go." ”

The palm that Wei Wang put on his knee immediately shrank into a fist: "What do you say?"

"The rebels are less than sixty miles away from Shengyi, and they must be still advancing at this time. The Zhenbei Army plus the Brown Army has more than 70,000 people, and the Shengyi garrison, plus the city defense army, is only 20,000 people, once Shengyi is besieged, it is unimaginable!"

"Can't go!" As soon as he finished speaking, Prime Minister Tu Qingzhong stepped forward and said loudly, "Your Majesty, we still have the strength to fight!"
