Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 193

[Chapter 193]

Dong Qi lay on the ground.

Amid the loud noise just now, he didn’t dare to look up at all.

But now, he can no longer pretend to be dead.

If he was still lying here, the horses of the cavalry would trample him to a pulp.

Getting up from the ground, he desperately ran towards the scattered Yuan family soldiers.

But before he ran ten steps, he felt a pain in his chest.

Looking down, a sharp arrow pierced his back and pierced his chest.

It was dark before his eyes, and he fell to the ground.

The moment he lost consciousness, he regretted that he had made a wrong decision.

Beside Zhao Xu, Xu Lie slowly retracted his bow and arrow.

Zhao Xu nodded slightly, but did not speak.

His eyes stayed on the heavy cavalry led by Chen Hu.

At this time, the Yuan family’s soldiers and horses were like 20,000 chickens running all over the mountains.

The heavy cavalry rushed in and rolled over like a steamroller, no one could stop it.

“Zhongli, drive these Yuan family soldiers together.” Zhao Xu said.

“Yes, Your Highness.” Zhong Li swallowed hard.

He is now very fortunate to be under King Yan’s command, otherwise he would be the one facing all this.

He definitely didn’t want to taste the shells from these artillery.

“Rumble!” The sound of horseshoes sounded, and Zhong Li led the light cavalry in scale armor galloping out.

They outflanked from the two wings and drove the fleeing Yuan soldiers to the center.

Seeing that there was no escape, the soldiers of the Yuan family dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground.

Surrender.

At this time, Zhao Xu gave Chang Wei a glance, and the army of the palace moved forward again.

When he came to the soldiers of the Yuan family who surrendered, Zhao Xu said: “People of Yanzhou, Yuan Li rebelled, and Yanguan is at stake. Do you want to continue to follow him to make trouble? Are you willing to become slaves of the people of Beidi?”

The soldiers of the Yuan family They looked at King Yan.

They had already heard everything about King Yan in Yan County and Shanggu County.

They yearned for King Yan.

However, they are not the people of King Yan’s land.

“Your Highness, we don’t want to rebel. We were forced. If we don’t come, we will violate the military law.” A Yuan family soldier shouted.

“Your Highness, please forgive me. We never want to rebel.”

“We can’t help ourselves.”

“…”

Yuan soldiers shouted one by one.

Zhao Xu nodded. The reason why he said that was because when he wiped out Zhang, Huang and Du’s families, many wealthy private soldiers directly chose to surrender.

In Ping County, he believed that many common people were coerced by the rich.

After all, the Yuan family is just a super wealthy family in Yanzhou.

“Since this is the case, take your swords and kill the generals who enslaved you. If you have the courage, follow me to Yanguan, defeat the Yuan family, resist the invasion of the Beidi people, and be my king from now on.” Zhao Xu said loudly , these generals are all from wealthy families, so there is nothing to regret.

“Your Highness?” A Yuan family soldier’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

Looking at the general of the Yuan family who was trembling with fear, he picked up the long sword on the ground and stabbed at him.

The generals of the Yuan family immediately fell into a pool of blood.

The behavior of this Yuan family soldier serves as an example.

Many soldiers picked up the long swords on the ground and searched for the generals of the Yuan family.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the ground was covered with the corpses of the generals of the Yuan family.

There was no trace of pity in Zhao Xu’s eyes.

If there was no Yuan family’s rebellion, he might have retained these Yuan family generals to go to the mines to mine.

But now he has no time to deal with these Yuan family generals.

Moreover, these Yuan family generals are the unstable factors in Yanzhou, leaving them in great danger.

To do special things in special times, they can only die.

The palace army continued to advance.

Soldiers of the Yuan family, you look at me, and I look at you.

Some brave soldiers joined the ranks of the Wangfu soldiers, and they set out for Yanguan after the Wangfu army.

Some soldiers also dropped their swords, and their figures disappeared into the open field.

Not long after, several generals from the royal family’s army came to the back, and while walking, incorporated them into the army.

“Your Highness, eight thousand people have come with us.” Chang Wei rushed up and reported to Zhao Xu, with a sigh in his tone, “There are still many soldiers from the Yuan family who have escaped.”

“Eight thousand people are not bad.” Zhao Xu Xu smiled and said, “This is the way things are in the world. The family and the country are in peril. Those who are willing to risk their lives to defend are always the bravest among them. Cowards are also superfluous on the battlefield.”

“Your Highness said so.” Chang Wei followed Yan Wang’s gaze Passing by the majestic and high-spirited royal army, he smiled boldly.

…

Yanguan.

Xiao Yuanshan is leisurely drinking some wine in the yard.

At this time, a general came quickly, sweating profusely.

“What are you doing in such a panic?” Xiao Yuanshan was very dissatisfied with the general who came in without knocking on the door.

The general didn’t care about Xiao Yuanshan’s anger at all, he said anxiously: “General, something big happened, the Yuan family rebelled, and the Yuan family’s army is 20 miles away from the city, and it will soon reach Yanguan.”

Xiao Yuanshan heard that, Throwing down the wine glass, he said angrily: “Nonsense, Mo Zhai is spreading rumors about the Yuan family, and now he commits suicide in fear of crime, how do you still believe it? Why, do you have any dissatisfaction with me, the general of Yanguan?”

“General, I don’t dare to talk nonsense. This is a situation detected by the scouts. Please send troops to defend the southern city wall immediately.” The general continued, his tone extremely anxious.

“Come here, let me drag this nonsense out.” Xiao Yuanshan was a little drunk.

Although Mo Di died, he knew Mo Di’s prestige in Yanguan.

The current generals are definitely not convinced that he is in charge of Yanguan.

He was thinking of promoting his confidants and suppressing Mo Di’s people next.

Now this general is giving him a chance to stand up.

After his words fell, another general rushed over suddenly.

Kneeling down on one knee in front of him, the general said, “General, Beidi’s army was found fifty miles away, the number of which is no less than 300,000.”

“Hahaha…” Xiao Yuanshan suddenly laughed.

Now he is even more convinced that Mo Di’s generals are playing tricks on him.

The laughter subsided, and his face turned cold immediately, “Come here, drag the two of them down together, beat them with forty military sticks, and anyone who speaks nonsense and disturbs the morale of the army shall be beheaded for public display.”

“General, isn’t this Nonsense, Yanguan is in danger, Yanguan is in danger…” The

two generals were dragged down by the guards, they struggled and shouted.

But Xiao Yuanshan didn’t pay attention to the two of them at all, but continued to drink the wine.

“Although King Yan hates it, the wine he makes is delicious, hehe…” Xiao Yuanshan picked up the wine glass and drank it down again.

After drinking a pot of wine, Xiao Yuanshan became sixty percent drunk, and went back to the house to sleep soundly.

midnight.

A general hurried into Xiao Yuanshan’s room.

The general was pale and trembling.

“General, Yanguan is over, Yanguan is over.” The general shouted.

Xiao Yuanshan saw the face of the person coming, and said angrily: “Why are you messing around with those generals?”

The general who came this time was named Xiao Qing, a member of his Xiao family.

“General, how could I lie to you? The Yuan family is really rebellious. The people from Beidi have really come. They are already approaching the city. If you don’t believe me, you can go and see the general.” Xiao Qing cried with a sad face.

“Okay, today I must expose your lies.” Xiao Yuanshan was furious.

One general is like this, and two generals are like this, which makes him very angry.

how is this possible? Beidi people never attack Yanguan in the middle of winter.

Putting on his clothes, he went to the north city wall, but when he boarded the city wall and saw the light of the torches like countless fireflies in the darkness, his drunkenness suddenly flew to the sky.

All that remained in my heart was fear as thick as the night.
