Chapter 114: Abandoning the City
Chapter 114: Abandoning the City
Li Batian's heart sank, he didn't know what was going on in the letter, and he was very uneasy when he saw Qin Yuan so sad at this time. Li Batian stepped forward and asked, "What did my father say?"
Qin Yuan said in a trembling voice: "My emperor said that if the thieves attack, they will abandon the city. Let me lead the troops back to the imperial capital!"
Li Batian was shocked, he never thought that his father would make such a decision. This is purely giving up his own country to others! No wonder Qin Yuan is so distressed, he once followed his grandfather to fight these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.
Li Batian's heart was very heavy, and he stood there silently.
Lei Ling looked at the two of them and frowned slightly, it was unbelievable that the Beacon Dynasty had ended up like this. Turning to look at Qin Yuan, he asked, "Isn't there any foundation in the Beacon Fire Dynasty?"
Qin Yuan's eyes looked into the distance with deep eyes, and he pondered for a while before saying, "Yes, but this is not the time to use it." Maybe my emperor's decision is right!"
Qin Yuan followed the emperor to conquer the Quartet, and the southern city of Zhennan was defeated in his generation, and the dynasty was at its peak. Now they have to give up the territory they have worked so hard to give to others. He once swore an oath in front of the emperor to protect the southern city of the town.
Qin Yuan said in a deep voice: "Abandoning the city is like cutting my flesh and blood!"
He looked at the sky, a cold lightning shot out of his eyes, and the murderous aura in his whole body appeared, turning into substance!
The majestic opportunity shook the temple, and after half a ring, he said: "To keep the imperial capital is to keep the thousand-year-old foundation of the dynasty, and every qiē foundation is there, and I believe in my emperor's decision." He'll take me back to bring back this abandoned half of the country!"
The decision of the monarch of the Beacon Dynasty is speechless, unacceptable, and unbelievable. That is the man who once dominated the battlefield, and the man who made countless strong people fearful.
Although such a decision was difficult for Qin Yuan to accept, there was nothing he could do at this time, he turned around and went down to gather his troops.
The princes of the Quartet are all in action, and on this day, a lot of gossip has been spread by the Beacon Dynasty, and a lot of unfortunate news is spreading. The people are in fear, and the people are not at peace.
"There is going to be a war, where should we mortals go?" an old man burst into tears, he had lived in Zhennan City all his life and had never encountered a war.
"I heard that this time the generals of all parties will detour back to the national capital, we have no hope! We are the ones who have been abandoned by the imperial dynasty!" In the other direction, a young man's eyes were full of disappointment. He is just a mortal, he has no talent for cultivation, but he has a passion that is boiling.
All kinds of news are spreading, half of the big cities of the Beacon Fire Dynasty have fallen into the hands of thieves, and there are thieves outside the capital!
Just when the Beacon Dynasty was facing such a difficult situation, another bad news came out. On this day, a crow stood on the roof of the palace, and the duck chirped to alarm the strong people in all directions, and Li Zheng, the monarch of the Beacon Fire Dynasty, was furious and pinched the crow to death.
Some people say that it was done by the people of the Nine Pylorics, and they also started to act.
The figures of the Demon Sect disciples have begun to invade the territory of the Beacon Fire Dynasty, and those thieves collude with the Demon Sect disciples of the Nine Pyloric Sect.
In the golden and majestic golden hall, Li Zheng's face was pale. His eyes were cold, and he looked at the sky outside the hall and shouted: "When I succeed, I will definitely kill these thieves without leaving a single piece of armor!"
Li Zheng's whole body rhyme flowed, and the golden dragon on the dragon robe emitted a divine light, this dragon robe was a spiritual treasure sacrificed by the emperors of the Beacon Fire Dynasty. It is a fairy robe, which blooms at this time, and it is extremely strange.
Li Zheng was very powerful, and with a roar, the hall shook with the sound waves. His body was covered with a thick layer of spirit, evolving pieces of territory, wolf smoke rolling, and war horses galloping.
The sound is rumbling and breathtaking. Those ministers in the palace were all strong men stationed on the side, and they were all cultivating during the tribulation period, but at this time, they couldn't resist Li Zheng's coercion. Everyone broke out in a cold sweat and looked extremely nervous.
Li Zheng calmed down and asked a minister, "When will Batian and General Qin return?"
"Wechen heard that they were already on their way, so I sent someone to meet them!" replied the minister.
Li Zheng nodded slightly and closed his eyes, he was very helpless and unwilling to do so. Abandoning the heavens and the territory is equivalent to abandoning the hearts of the people, and abandoning the hearts of the people is abandoning the world. Once upon a time when he would have been so down?
Along the way, Lei Ling was always very uneasy in his heart, and the movements of the Nine Pyloric Gates were too fast. The movement was very loud and unsettling.
Lei Ling muttered: "It seems that the serious injury of the Nine Shadows Holy Lord is a deliberately fabricated illusion, I'm afraid their purpose is not the Nine-Colored Divine Deer, but those two flesh-bodied Bodhisattvas!"
Although they led thousands of troops, these ordinary soldiers were somewhat cultivated, and they were all strong and fierce. The march was fast, and a group of men and horses were ushered in in front, which was arranged by the minister of the imperial capital to meet them.
The two groups of people were combined, and the army arrived in the imperial capital in three days. Emperor Li Zheng met Qin Yuan for the first time, and Qin Yuan knelt on the ground and was heartbroken, unable to mind the abandonment of the city.
"General Qin, let you be wronged! My Beacon Fire Dynasty can stand for a thousand years without falling, and it is not so easy to be defeated by these waves of people, don't worry, we will recover the lost territory!"
Qin Yuan nodded, got up and stood aside.
The ministers of all the parties were almost here, and at this time, Li Zheng frowned slightly and said: "Why hasn't General Xiang returned yet? The edict was the first to be sent to him, and after these seven days, he should return!"
There was silence in the hall, no one answered Li Zheng's words, and at this moment, a guard at the door broke into the hall in a hurry. The guard fell to his knees with a bang, and he panted and said, "Report!"
Li Zheng frowned slightly, looked at the guards with a cold expression, and shouted angrily: "Say!"
"Dingyuan City was in an emergency, and the anti-general Meng Tian led the army to trap General Xiangyu and occupy the chaos. Please let the emperor decide!"
As soon as Li Zheng heard the news, he immediately slammed up from the dragon chair, his expression was cold to what time, his eyes were cold, and he said murderously: "What an arrogant Meng Tian!"
The guards trembled with fright, and knelt on the ground and did not dare to get up.
Qin Yuan walked out of the line and said to Li Zheng: "Your Majesty, let me pick up Xiangyu!"
Li Zheng nodded, very helpless, Qin Yuan had been gone for three days. In the end, he and Xiangyu returned to the imperial capital with blood, and were seriously injured. It is extremely shocking, you must know that Qin Yuan and Xiangyu are Li Zheng's right-hand men, and they are the two most powerful under the emperor.
For a long time, the Beacon Fire Dynasty has relied on these two people to bear everyone and defend the territory.
Li Zheng was very anxious and visited the two in person. Before the two of them fell into a coma, they only said the word Jiuyu in a state of confusion, and since then they have passed out.
Lei Ling frowned slightly, both of them were strong men in the Tribulation Period, how could anyone be able to defeat him without the Supreme Realm! After another three days, the soldiers of the Imperial City came to the city, and the local war horses roared. It's like a drum shaking the sky, making people chill.
Li Batian and Lei Ling were also alarmed, and when they came to the city wall, they saw that the outside of the city was densely packed with soldiers, and there were people from all sides.
