Chapter 655 Love Tribulation (12)
But if Prince Chen's troops arrive first, it will be dangerous, because Prince Chen is said to have 300,000 private troops, while Guo Sheng has only 100,000 troops. The gap between three-to-one troops is too big. Moreover, there are 5,000 cavalry guards in the capital, and it is said that they are all elites and can fight ten with one.
After listening to Yuan Tai’s statement, Zhou Jin pondered for a moment and said, “How many people do you have in your hands?”
Yuan Tai said: "The subordinates sent ten groups of men to find His Highness, each group of forty people, and now they have gathered together, a total of four hundred people."
Zhou Jin nodded slightly, "Does there any news about the rest of the people?"
Yuan Tai whispered: "Zhou An raided the prince's mansion at night, without any defense... he suffered heavy casualties."
Zhou Jin said: "That is to say, there are only four hundred people who can use it now."
Yuan Tai hurriedly said, "If General Guo arrives first..."
"It's not counting if it's not here." Zhou Jin pursed his lips and sneered, "Random, the last link of the series of plans turned out to be Zhou An, good! Very good! It's not in vain to be your opponent. From now on, we have no match for the situation."
Ye Qingyan woke up by Zhou Jin, and he didn't realize that he had carefully recalled what he did, and he really did everything he did.
First, His Majesty suffered a stroke and led Zhou Jin out of the capital and attacked all the way. If Ye Qingyan and Zhou Jin were not together, he would be seriously injured if Zhou Jin was not alive. Then, taking advantage of Zhou Jin's absence, Zhou An forced the palace. Even if Zhou Jin returned to the capital safely, he would face the situation of family and country. In the end, it would be that brothers and sons would be tragic. No matter who died or who lived, his purpose was to prevent Zhou Jin from feeling well.
Ye Qingyan sighed inwardly, and this guy became insidious and cunning, and he was really unpredictable.
Finally, things have developed better than expected.
Guo Sheng's army arrived first. His 100,000 elite soldiers, plus Zhou Jin's 400 attendants and guards, had an absolute advantage in terms of military strength over the 5,000 enemy troops in the capital.
However, the capital walls are high and the city is hard, easy to defend but difficult to attack. Zhou An closed the city gates and refused to go out to fight, waiting for his private army. If his army of 300,000 arrived, the advantage of the force would be the enemy, so Zhou Jin had to capture the capital before Prince Chen's army arrived.
After sieging the city for three consecutive days, Zhou Jin suffered heavy losses, losing 20%. Even if Zhou An occupied a good area, he lost half of his troops. However, Zhou Jin's army had a large base and affected morale. Zhou An was angry and pulled Emperor Xuan of Zhou to the top of the city and asked Zhou Jin to withdraw his troops, otherwise he would kill His Majesty immediately.
"You can't retreat, Your Highness." Guo Sheng made a statement, "The scout just heard the news that Prince Chen's army would arrive at the capital in three days at a time, and in five days at a time, it would be arriving at the capital in five days. If you don't capture the capital in these three or five days, you're afraid... I'm afraid..." I'm afraid there will be no chance. Although he didn't say it, everyone understands it.
Zhou Jin remained silent.
Yuan Tai also took a step forward and said, "Your Highness, General Guo said so well, opportunities are fleeting."
Zhou Jin was still silent.
The sun was dazzling and scorching at noon, but it could not shine on him at all, driving away a hint of chill on his body. Ye Qingyan shook his head, suggesting that Yuan Tai was still trying to talk about it again.
War is always the cruelest!
This requires him to recognize this reality himself and prevent these people from sacrificing for nothing.
Zhou Jin pursed his lips tightly, suddenly urged his horse to step forward, looking at Emperor Xuan of Zhou on the top of the city, "Father, it's really a death sentence for my child to save him."
"I, forgive my son for not being guilty." On the top of the city wall, Emperor Xuan of Zhou, who should have been a living dead, suddenly spoke. In addition to his mouth, his mind was not a living dead.
Everyone who knew that His Majesty became a living dead couldn't help but feel uproar.
Zhou An also reacted and knew that he had been deceived by Emperor Xuan of Zhou, "You old man, I dare to deceive me." A knife that snatched the soldier's hand and gently stroked Emperor Xuan of Zhou's neck, blood flowing like a stream.
"I have been successful throughout my life. People in the world say that I am afraid of my inner self, but in fact I am just a heavy love. I also know that the power of the foreign relatives is overwhelming the sky, but even if she is happy, I have nothing to be reluctant to let go. I had known that I had a good child, no matter how mediocre I was, he could still return to heaven. Jin, remember, for emperors, the most taboo is to be devoted, and love is deep and not to live in my footsteps."
Zhou Jin's expression was complicated, "Father..."
"There is no reason why children who can never forget each other at the age of five will not be able to do anything after they grow up three years old. If they don't get close to you, they are also to protect you, not caring for you, and they are also afraid that you will grow up like this. Ruthlessness is not necessarily worse than sentimental..."
Zhou An exerted force on his hand, and the wound immediately deepened, and the blood flowed faster and faster. He shouted: "Old man, aren't you crazy?"
"No, I'm sober, but I've never been sober in my life. I really want to thank you. An'er, although you are not my biological son, I have never treated you badly." After saying that, I looked at Zhou Jin again, "My son, remember what my father said."
A layer of mist appeared in Zhou Jin's eyes, and he pursed his lips hard. The clouds immediately cleared and the mist dissipated, leaving only the cruel and cold condensation, and he said solemnly: "Son is taught!"
"Okay!" Emperor Xuan of Zhou turned his head and hit the blade in Zhou An's hand hard, with blood splattering, and his vitality was cut off.
The saddle that Zhou Jin held with his left hand was split into pieces and rustled all over the ground.
Yuan Tai's eyes flushed, and he raised his arms and shouted, "Kill the rebels and avenge His Majesty..."
At this time, the crowd is infuriated, and it is best to incite it, and there is a sound of soldiers being unsheathed immediately.
Zhou An was furious and cut off Emperor Xuan of Zhou with a knife, leaving his body and head. Under the city gate was a moat, and Emperor Xuan of Zhou's body immediately fell into the water.
Zhou Jin flew into the moat to catch the body of Emperor Xuan of Zhou.
Zhou An immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot arrows.
"Prepare the ladder..." Guo Sheng led his army to attack the city with a gun.
...
Ye Qingyan looked at the war where life was as cheap as grass... and sighed helplessly.
What Emperor Xuan of Zhou said to Zhou Jin touched her extremely. I believe Emperor Jingde should have also said to Xiao Changqi. I wonder what Xiao Changqi's reaction was like at that time, and was he as excited as Zhou Jin, completely clearing the shadow that Emperor Jingde was neglected or even disliked when he was a child from his heart.
Zhou Jin took up Emperor Xuan of Zhou's body.
General Guo also led his troops to capture the capital and killed Zhou An.
The sad soldiers will win... It is a dying gift given to Zhou Jin by Emperor Xuan of Zhou.
*******
Ye Qingyan entered the capital the day after seizing the city.
Because Emperor Xuan of Zhou passed away, the country could not be without a king for a day, so he would stay in the palace to deal with major military and political affairs.
But the girl he picked up was not taken care of for a while. When the prince's mansion was besieged by Zhou An, all the servants and nannies were killed. How could the new palace servants know how to take care of the children? If there were Zhou An's remnants, they would not know what would happen to the children.
She has also developed feelings for this girl these days. She is reluctant to throw it away casually and she sways. In the end, she naturally stayed in the palace and was placed in Zhaohua Pavilion in the palace by Zhou Jin.
Because the owner of the body and his family members, he wrote a letter to report his safety and asked Yuan Tai to give it to the old lady of the Jiang family and the third master of the Ye family, so don't worry.
