"you--!"

The barbarian was a little annoyed, but then he said with a smile on his face, "Lord Pei, don't refuse in a hurry, don't you need to discuss it with your emperor? What if he is willing to trade this capital city for his own safety?" ? Our leader said, as long as you are willing to surrender and give up the capital, then we, the barbarians, can promise not to kill your royal family and dignitaries, how about it?"

After hearing this, Liu Yi asked, "Then, what about the rest of the city?"

The barbarian said indifferently, "Those people who are like ants, just kill them."

The sword in Liu Yi's hand touched the barbarian's neck at once, "We Chinese people are only loyal to our own country and our own emperor, and will never bow down to others!"

Liu Yi said angrily, "I'll kill you right now, and let your leaders attack if you can. We'd rather die standing than live on our knees!"

The blade of the sword approached inch by inch, and it had cut through the barbarian's neck, bleeding out.

"Okay, I already thought that you stubborn people would not be easily persuaded. In terms of integrity, you people from the Celestial Dynasty are indeed worthy of admiration, especially your great general, tsk tsk tsk, he is really a hero who would rather bend than bend! "

Pei Zheng's eyes dimmed suddenly, he stretched out his hand to push Liu Yi's sword away, stepped forward and grabbed the barbarian's skirt, and said coldly, "What did you say?"

The barbarian touched his bleeding neck, "Let me tell you, you Chinese have integrity."

"Have you met Zhao Litang?"

The barbarian pretended to think about it on purpose, and then suddenly realized, "Oh, so the name of General Zhao is Zhao Litang, no wonder it sounds so familiar."

The murderous look in Pei Zheng's eyes had gradually gathered. He grabbed the barbarian and pushed most of his body out of the city wall.

"Tell me everything you know, or else"

Pei Zheng pushed him outside the dark and deep city wall again, and his entire upper body was already suspended in the air.

The barbarian looked very scared, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to say anything.

Pei Zheng really pushed him out without mercy, and the barbarian's face turned pale with fright, and he let out a long howl, but he didn't fall down.

His neckline was caught by one hand, and his whole body was hung on the towering city wall, his legs were struggling and flapping wildly, like a fish hanging in the wind.

"Let's talk." Pei Zheng's voice was low and without a trace of warmth, the hand that grabbed the person showed faint veins, but his face was expressionless.

"I said, I said" the barbarian's will had been crushed, he glanced down, the bottomless darkness was like a huge

Eats a man's mouth and waits for him to drop down to feed his stomach.

After the barbarian finished speaking, he looked at Pei Zheng, waiting for him to pull him up.

Pei Zheng just gave him a cold look, and then let go.

Accompanied by a shrill scream, a black figure quickly fell from the city wall without making a sound.

Liu Yi looked worried, "My lord, what he said just now about General Zhao can't be true, right? General Zhao, he, he, is not that kind of person."

"Which?"

Pei Zheng's tone couldn't detect emotion, "How can outsiders make a conclusion based on just a few words about things that he doesn't even understand himself."

At this time, the barbarian vanguard army that was still galloping towards the imperial capital suddenly stopped.

Pei Zheng stared at the flame with cold eyes.

The soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty had already ambushed outside the imperial capital, and they all hid themselves in the dark, waiting for the barbarian army to rush outside the city and kill them by surprise.

But who knew that the barbarians seemed to have expected it, but they didn't break into the ambush for a long time.

With a sound of "咻", the barbarians shot out a flying arrow, flying straight towards the gate of the imperial capital with a circle of flames.

The city gate is made of iron, so it is not afraid of fire, but it illuminates the soldiers ambushing at the gate.

The barbarian army immediately heard cheers and cheers, as if celebrating that there was no ambush.

Seeing that the ambush failed, the Chinese soldiers rushed out and formally confronted the barbarian vanguard.

The barbarians were all riding tall horses, holding torches and sharp weapons, wearing ancient robes with various patterns, with half of their arms exposed, and rushed over on horseback, shouting joyfully.

All of a sudden, a fierce fight took place outside the city gate, with flesh and blood flying all over the place, the fires flickered on and off, and half of the soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty fell, while the cavalry of the barbarians fell. Still only a small loss.

Liu Yi, who was standing on the city wall watching the battle, couldn't stand it anymore, and wanted to lead people out directly with his sword in hand.

Pei Zheng stopped him and said, "Open the city gate."

Liu Yi was surprised, "My lord, if you open the city gate now, the barbarian army will attack directly, so why should we fight?"

"This vanguard has only a few thousand people. Although the number is small, they are all elite cavalry." Pei Zheng stared at the chaotic two sides fighting under the city wall and said, "The cavalry loses half of their combat effectiveness without their mounts. When they enter the city, kill their mounts first."

Suddenly, Liu Yi took the order and left.

The soldiers in the city were busy in an orderly manner under Liu Yi's command, and after a while, they sent a signal to the soldiers outside the city.

Then the heavy city gate opened suddenly, and the surviving soldiers of the Celestial Dynasty outside the city turned and rushed back into the city with great eyesight, and then disappeared immediately.

The iron hoofs of the barbarians stood outside the city gate. They looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering why the Celestial Dynasty people opened the city gate wide open. Could it be that they retreated because they couldn't beat it?

Looking inside the city gate, it was quiet and empty, and there was no sound at all. The whole city seemed to be empty.

A daring barbarian cavalry rode in first and cautiously walked in. He went all the way to the streets of the imperial capital, but he didn't see a single figure.

Then other barbarian cavalry followed suit.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the city gate, he heard the sound of "sou sou" under his feet. It was a piece of bright blades passing by the horse's legs, cutting off most of the horse's legs. It fell down immediately, and then out of nowhere, many Celestial soldiers rushed out, beheading the fallen barbarian soldiers directly.

The barbarian soldiers in the front had all been killed, and the barbarian soldiers who came in behind were killed by the same method without knowing what happened.

Blood flowed like a river at the gate of the entire city, and corpses of people and horses were piled up in a mess, and a strong smell of blood began to spread throughout the city.

After the last barbarian soldier was beheaded, all the corpses were thrown out of the city, and then the towering city gate was tightly closed again.

Many soldiers were ambushed again outside the city gate, but after learning the lesson from last time, the ambush was more concealed.

The soldiers who stayed in the city cheered happily. They won the first battle tonight. Maybe, maybe there will be a miraculous turning point tonight!

Liu Yi happily went to report the matter to Pei Zheng, but Pei Zheng didn't show a happy expression at all, and kept staring at the darkness in the distance without saying a word.

Thousands of cavalry, no one knows what a huge army will follow behind.

The distance in the imperial capital is too quiet now, the quieter it is, the greater the uneasiness hidden.

The carriage had already driven away from the imperial capital, and it still didn't dare to stop for a moment, continuing to gallop north.

The little man in the car was still in a deep sleep, and the dose of medicine given was enough for him to sleep for a whole night. When he woke up at dawn, he was already far away from the imperial capital.

Li Yu has been carefully looking after him, always watching His Highness's movements, lest he wake up early.

But His Highness will wake up sooner or later. When the time comes, how will he explain all this to His Highness, and show His Excellency's good intentions.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped urgently, and a horse was parked on the road in front of it. Immediately there was a dark figure, which could not be seen clearly in the dim moonlight.

The dark guard accompanying the carriage immediately jumped out of the carriage, stood in front of him, and drew his sword to face the shadow in front of him.

The black figure seemed not afraid at all, and walked towards the carriage step by step.

When they got to the carriage, a figure jumped off the horse and almost sprained his foot, only then did he realize that the horse was carrying two people.

The figure limped over, raised the curtain of the carriage and looked inside.

Li Yu was startled, closed his eyes and stood in front of Qi Changyi, "Who are you?"

"Xiao Yuzi, don't be afraid, it's me."

Hearing the familiar voice, Li Yu opened his eyes suddenly, and saw that the person in front of him was Jiang Yubai whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and his eyes turned red immediately.

"Doctor Jiang, why did you and Feng Guard come back, woo woo woo woo"

Cheng Feng also got off his horse and walked to the side of the carriage.

"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Cheng Feng saw something was wrong and asked aloud.

"Your Highness was drugged by your lord, and fell into a coma." Li Yu said, "My lord wants me to leave the city with your highness. It seems that there will be a war in the imperial capital tonight. My lord wants to send us all to the Northern Territory. He will stay alone. in town"

"What?" Jiang Yubai's eyes widened, "We've only been walking for how long, and the imperial capital is about to be captured?"

He looked back at Chengfeng, and then made a decision, "Go, I want to go back."

As he spoke, he was about to turn around and climb onto the horseback.

"No." Chengfeng stretched out his hand and hugged Jiang Yubai by the waist, stuffed him into the carriage, and then turned himself over and jumped onto the horse.

Jiang Yubai showed his head from the carriage, and said excitedly, "I knew it, I knew it! Let's go, let's go back together!"

Unexpectedly, Chengfeng just turned around, took a deep look at the road leading to the imperial capital, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go to the Northern Territory."

Jiang Yubai was very shocked, and asked Chengfeng's back loudly, "Hey! The one who stayed there is your master! Do you have the heart to let him face the war and death alone? At least go back and take him away together Okay! Hey! We must have time to go back now! If it’s too late, the whole city might be gone!”

Chengfeng tightened the rope, stood still under the moonlight, and looked back at Jiang Yubai.

Jiang Yubai immediately closed his mouth. Although he couldn't see clearly, he knew that Chengfeng's eyes were slightly red.

"You don't know the master. He made this decision because he has already thought about the consequences. He will not leave with us. Even if we go back, nothing will change."

"So, we listen to the master and leave."
