Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

The battle on Dadi Slope continued, and the sound of wailing and fighting filled the sky.

The five thousand elites did not rush up the slope in one go. Instead, they fought with the rogue bandits halfway up the mountain.

Both sides fought with red eyes, white knives went in and red knives came out, blood was spilled, and the smell of blood was in the air.

After one night!

The sound of fighting just slowly stopped.

"Boss, basically, it's over."

Zhou Ping swallowed his saliva and looked at the faintly seen corpse at the end of his sight, his voice trembling.

The five thousand elites were trained by King Runan for ten years or more.

But overnight, the entire army was wiped out and turned into nothing!

"I'm afraid not many people from Chen Sheng's side will survive."

The long knife in his hand tightened, and Zhou Ping took a deep breath: "How about we kill him now?"

From the beginning to the end, the more than a thousand Xiangjun elites who followed them did not move. In Zhou Ping's view, this force could now crush the bandits on the entire land slope.

"No, they will come by themselves."

Zhou Zheng shook his head on the horse, not in a hurry.

The entire slope of the land, although it is on top of hills and plains, seems like it can be dispersed in all directions.

But only the place Zhou Zheng and the others occupied at this time was the best way to retreat.

"As long as Chen Sheng and the others want to escape, this is the only way to go."

The effective forces were wiped out, and Chen Sheng and the others no longer had any meaning to stay on Dadi Slope.

Only by breaking out can we gain a chance of survival.

Whistle, rustle, rustle!

Just as he spoke, he saw the vegetation swaying in front of him, and then a team of more than a hundred people fled in a hurry.

Their expressions were tense, their faces solemn, their faces full of alertness and caution.

However, they didn't know that the real danger had just begun.

......

"Boy, anyone who blocks my way will die!"

The leader was none other than Chen Sheng.

At this time, he was covered in blood, filled with murderous intent, and his face showed a fierce look.

With an angry shout, more than a hundred people behind him also aimed their weapons at Zhou Zheng.

However, although they had already become jealous, they were not in a hurry to take action when they saw Zhou Zheng and the others.

As Zhou Qing said, although Chen Sheng and others are rogues, they are not miscreants and will never kill innocent people indiscriminately.

"Is it?"

"I would like to see if you can really kill me?"

The corners of Zhou Zheng's mouth raised slightly, a smile bloomed on his face, and he clapped his hands lightly.

Whoohoo! ! !

As the applause spread, thousands of figures appeared in the surrounding vegetation.

These heavily armed men, holding repeating crossbows, aimed at Chen Sheng.

With just one order, these hundreds of people will be shot into hedgehogs in an instant.

"I?"

"Prince!?"

"Are you the Prince of Zhou, Zhou Zheng?"

Looking at the handsome-looking young man in front of him, Chen Sheng's pupils suddenly expanded, his expression suddenly changed, and his voice was also stuttering.

And the fierce light in the eyes of the more than a hundred people following him gradually turned into despair at this time.

A whole night of fighting almost cost them all.

Now everyone is already at the end of their strength, how can they still have the strength to fight again! ?

"Hmph, if you want to kill or cut, it's up to you!"

Chen Sheng gritted his teeth and looked at Zhou Zheng with a complicated expression. He never expected to see the current prince in such a place.

"Boss, no matter what, one of you will die. At worst, we have to fight with them!"

"That's right, kill one to get your money back, and kill two to make some profit!"

"It's better than being taken back alive by them and tortured!"

Soon, someone jumped out next to Chen Sheng.

In today's situation, they knew they were doomed.

However, they also have no intention of surrendering. After all, thousands of elites died on Dadi Slope, and the debt must be repaid!

In this case, it is better to have a happy battle and become a good man again after eighteen years!

The originally despairing look on everyone's face was rekindled by these words.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows and finally turned his attention to the leader, Chen Sheng.

"They are all brothers who have followed me through life and death."

"Although he turned into a bandit, he never did anything contrary to benevolence, justice and morality."

"Every mistake is my fault alone."

"As long as the prince lets them go, my life will be left to the court and I will be at my mercy."

Their eyes met, Chen Sheng looked at the young man in front of him who was three-thirds like Emperor Tianjing, and countless memories emerged in the depths of his mind.

"Boss, the world is as dark as crows."

"Are you serious that they will let us go? We are brothers and we will die together!"

More than a hundred people behind him were startled when they heard Chen Sheng's words, and then they roared loudly without fear of danger.

From the day they followed Chen Sheng, they had already put life and death aside.

In their view, there is something more important than death, and that is loyalty.

"You want to keep them?"

Zhou Zheng's eyes turned and his heart warmed slightly.

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

In this era of profit-seeking, there are very few people who can put loyalty above personal life and death.

Betrayal, killing, utilitarianism, and selfishness have long become the normal state of human nature.

At this moment, Chen Sheng's attitude was like a warm current.

"Yes."

Looking directly into Zhou Zheng's eyes, Chen Sheng didn't hesitate at all.

There were only a hundred or so people left on the entire slope.

Zhou Ping frowned and shouted: "Hmph, do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms with our boss?"

However, before Zhou Ping could continue to speak, Zhou Zheng interrupted him.

"Let them go?"

"Where do you think they can go?"

Shaking his head, Zhou Zheng's words made Chen Sheng fall into silence.

Let’s not talk about whether Zhou Zheng will agree or not, nor whether Emperor Tianjing will kill them all.

Just say that this is Tianfeng City and Lujiang County.

All around were King Runan's eyeliners.

Where can they go?

Thinking of this, Chen Sheng became decadent on the spot.

"Boss, there's no need to talk nonsense to him."

"Even if we die, we will never compromise!"

"The other brothers are dead, so what if we go down there to reunite with them?"

The visible change in Chen Sheng's expression made the brothers behind him even more aggrieved.

Although they are rogues, they are by no means greedy for life and fearful of death. They are definitely not people who follow people's influence, and they are definitely not people who are groveling.

"I know you are not afraid of death."

"However, if the imperial court wants to confiscate your family and exterminate your clan, what will you do?"

Zhou Zheng shrugged indifferently.

But the cold murderous intent in his words made the hearts of the hundreds of people who were originally shouting sink instantly.

In recent years, although they are bandits, they have won the trust of the people, and many of them have secretly started families.

......

"you!"

This is their weakness, and it is also Chen Sheng's weakness.

"It's worse than my wife and children!"

"They are just bandits, not rebels. Why would the prince do this?!"

Chen Sheng clenched his fists and almost growled.

Unfortunately, this was of no use to Zhou Zheng.

"What does my plan to kill the nine tribes have to do with the crime you committed?"

On the horseback, Zhou Zheng was condescending and not angry.

......
