The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 117 The Assassin's Lie Song
With one sword strike, Ebony was dragged to death.

Le Wuwei stood lightly on the horse's head with both feet, slid down the ebony wood and dragged the head, and suddenly threw it into the air, using his internal energy and shouting: "The commander of the Yuan army is dead!"

Countless soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty shouted, with momentum like a rainbow, and the sound of shouting and killing was even louder.

An atmosphere of panic gradually spread in the Yuan army.

In ancient times, the battle relied too much on the general, and in all the wars where the general died, seldom could be won.

Before the sun set, the Yuan army that rushed out of the city had already been pushed back into the city by the soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty.

There are countless dead bodies lying outside the city.

No Yuan army broke out from the entire southern city wall, and the generals of the Yuan army were all killed.

The fighting continued into the city, and the soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty chased the Yuan army to the streets and alleys, still fighting bloody battles.

Yue Peng and other generals were covered in blood, but they still took the lead.

Zhao Dongting came sitting in the chariot, holding the military book in his hand, but he was in a daze.

He was still thinking whether his previous actions were right or not.Compared with the whole country, hundreds of people are nothing, but they are hundreds of lives after all.

Perhaps, there is no right or wrong in this kind of thing.

He didn't know, if he encountered such a thing again, would he choose to fire or still insist on not firing.

Qin Han was also sitting in the car, holding a military book in his left hand, and a bun in his right hand, stuffing it into his mouth from time to time, chewing loudly, but he didn't care about the hundreds of lives at all.

After eating the buns, he raised his head and said to Zhao Dongting: "Your Majesty, let the soldiers light the fire and make food, and welcome the soldiers to their triumphant return?"

He was careless, knowing that the victory was settled.

"it is good."

Zhao Dongting came back to his senses and nodded slightly.

Cooking smoke curled up outside the city.

In the city, the fighting continued.

So until the sky became dark, the sound of shouting and killing in the city continued to waft out.

I don't know when, countless torches suddenly lit up on the top of the city, and bursts of cheers resounded.

The soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty have completely captured the city!

Hearing the cheers, Zhao Dongting hurried out of the chariot, saw the starry torches on the top of the city, and said in his heart, "Okay!"

After a while, the cheers subsided, and he asked the orderly to withdraw.

Yue Peng and others led the soldiers out of the city and returned to the camp. Seeing that the food was ready, they ate it heartily.

However, some soldiers in the army kowtowed silently to the city of Jinjin.

They had brothers and relatives who died in battle in the city and could never come out again.

Zhao Dongting sent an order that 2000 soldiers from the God Beggar Army would enter the city to search for the escaped soldiers of the Yuan army to maintain order, and no one else would be allowed to enter the city.

The army rested in the camp outside the city.

That night, very few Yuan troops fled out of the city.

At dawn the next day, thousands of Yuan army corpses floated in the river outside Tanjin County.

Tanjin County is surrounded by water on three sides, and the three rivers of Rongjiang, Xunjiang and Mengjiang converge here. The Yuan army is not good at water, so those who escaped from the city jumped into the river in a panic, and most of them drowned in the river.

After the army of the Southern Song Dynasty had breakfast, Zhao Dongting led the army into the city.

Many of the remaining people in the city gathered at the gate of the city on their own initiative, and knelt down on both sides of the street to welcome the Song army into the city.

The spears of the two thousand god beggars were linked together, keeping the people behind and spreading straight to the government office in the city.

Sitting in the chariot, Zhao Dongting looked at the ragged people on both sides of the street, as well as the unpacked corpses of the two armies, the corpses of civilians, and the burned houses, and felt chills.

This is an ancient war, thousands of soldiers died at every turn, and countless civilians were killed or injured.

There was even a faint smell of rancidity in the city.

Zhao Dongting was afraid of causing a plague, so he ordered Zhao Da who was outside the chariot: "Zhao Da, let the army collect the corpses and burn them collectively."

In ancient times, many people died in the plague, which made it difficult for the population to develop.

It's only a hundred meters away, and there are no people on both sides of the street.

Zhao Dongting frowned slightly, lifted the curtain slightly, and asked Yue Peng who was riding a horse guarding beside the chariot, "Are all the people in the city here?"

Yue Peng replied: "There are not many people in Tanjin County anymore. These... are all strong men who were imprisoned by the Yuan army."

"Oh……"

Zhao Dongting responded softly, but his heart was full of killing intent.

These are strong men, that is to say, the people in the city have already fled, or were killed by the Yuan army.

The Yuan army didn't treat these people as human beings at all.

Go to the government office of Tanjin County.

There are two huge stone lions standing in front of the government office, and the courtyard wall is so high that it seems that the solemnity and prosperity of the past still remain.Maybe after Wu Mutuo's army invaded the city, he also lived in the government office, so the government office did not suffer much damage.

Zhao Dongting got off the chariot and walked towards the government office surrounded by many flying dragon soldiers.

The generals of the army followed him into the mansion, sat down in the main hall, and reported the results of the battle.

The Yuan army was almost wiped out in this campaign, and the soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty lost no more than [-] soldiers. In addition, food, weapons, armor, horses, and money were seized.

Yue Peng asked: "Your Majesty, the Yuan army captured more than [-] people. How should we deal with them?"

If it was according to what he wanted, then they would all be killed. Before that, Zhao Dongting treated the captives preferentially, which made him dare not make up his own mind.

"kill!"

What Yue Peng didn't expect was that when Zhao Dongting heard his words, the word just popped out of his mouth coldly.

Yue Peng was slightly taken aback, then bowed to accept the order, "Yes!"

He didn't know that Zhao Dongting's murderous intent was strong this time, but it was because of the scene on the top of the city and the tragic situation in the city that he changed his mood slightly.

Then, Zhao Dongting ordered the generals to repair the city walls, and those who distributed food to the people, and the generals dispersed.

Although there were less than a thousand people in the city, Zhao Dongting didn't want to watch them starve to death.

The food and grass in the city had already been looted by the Yuan army, and now it is in the hands of the Song army.

After the generals left, Zhao Dongting looked at Qin Han again, "What shall we do next?"

Qin Han said: "Let's rest first, and then continue northward to attack Zhaozhou, disperse Ali Haiya's troops, and relieve the danger of Prime Minister Wen."

Wen Tianxiang's Xingguo army was originally only more than 3 people, and it was difficult to stop the Yuan army on this Guangnan West Road. Even if people continued to respond, it is now close to the thorns.Of the more than ten state capitals on Guangnan West Road, only Xunzhou, Yulin Prefecture, Rongzhou, Gaozhou, and those remote state capitals were not captured by the Yuan army.

At this time, Wen Tianxiang was fighting against the Yuan army in Xunzhou, and Xunzhou was just beside Tengzhou.

Zhao Dongting's idea was to directly lead the army to support Xunzhou. Hearing Qin Han's words, he was slightly stunned, "Surround Wei and save Zhao?"

Qin Han smiled softly, "Zhaozhou borders Jingjiang Mansion, Ali Haiya will not sit back and watch us threaten his base camp."

His face is full of confidence.

Jingjiang Mansion.

Ali Haiya received an informant in the government office, and learned that Tanjin had been lost, Wu Mutuo died in battle, and the Yuan army was almost dead, so he was furious.

He has a rough beard and a dark complexion. He doesn't look like a scholar, and he looks angry as if he wants to kill someone.

All the generals in the hall dared not speak out.

Qiongzhou lost [-] yuan in the naval battle, and Tanjin lost more than [-] yuan at this time. They all knew that the coach must be in a bad mood.

After Ali Haiya was furious, he pondered for a while with a gloomy face, and suddenly said: "Decree, let Jesul take Xunzhou quickly at any cost!"

He hastily wrote a few strokes on the paper, stamped his Tiger Talisman seal, and handed it to the military adviser next to him.

The military division hurried out with the letter paper.

Not long after, an eagle soared away from Jingjiang Mansion.

In this way, in the past two days, Zhao Dongting was preparing to lead his army to leave Tanjin and go to Zhaozhou.

Tanjin County was a little more lively than two days ago. Some fleeing people heard that the Song army had recaptured the city, and they were reluctant to part with their hometown, so they ran back.

Before Zhao Dongting left the mansion, there were already countless people kneeling outside the mansion.

They heard that Leizhou is now prosperous, and they are full of hope for the Southern Song court.

Zhao Dongting was wearing armor, had just walked out of the mansion, saw these people, and was about to persuade them to move to Leizhou, at this moment, a sword glow suddenly appeared in the crowd.

At this time, Tanjin County was close to the hands of the Song army, and Zhao Dongting and the others were indeed a little lax.At this time, he had just left the mansion, and the only people close to him were Le Wuhui, Zhao Da, Zhao Hu and others.

The sword glowed extremely fast, with even more murderous aura, it came straight for Zhao Dongting.

The person holding the sword was wearing ordinary clothes, with a yellow face, extremely thin lips, and his speed was astonishingly fast.

A few meters away, it passed by in a flash, and even the flying dragon soldiers guarding around couldn't react.

This is a professional assassin, quite like those assassins in the Warring States Period.

"Small!"

Before the words "Le Wuwei and Be Careful" could be uttered, the assassin had already approached them.

Fortunately, Le Wuwei's kung fu was extremely high, before he could draw his sword, he flicked his finger towards the tip of the assassin's sword.

How powerful is his inner strength?

The long sword trembled violently because of his flick, and it was deflected.

The assassin's expression changed slightly, he was still icy cold, and he changed his move to grab Zhao Dongting's throat again.

Zhao Da and Zhao Hu hurriedly followed Zhao Dongting to retreat.

Le Wuwei moved his footsteps lightly, stood in front of him, and kept tapping on the assassin's sword with his fingers.

But the assassin's kung fu is also extremely strong, the sword moves are simple but all the moves are killer moves, the speed is so fast that Le Wuwei even has no chance to draw his sword.

You know, Le Wuwei is a top player.

Zhao Dongting was hurriedly pushed to the back, and many flying dragon soldiers surrounded him to protect him.

He looked a little surprised, looking at the assassin who was killing Hele for nothing, he couldn't even see clearly the moves of the two of them.

All the soldiers finally came to kill the assassin from this shocking change.

The assassin tapped the plum blossoms with his sword, stabbing the two of them to death in an instant.

But this also gave Dele Wuhui the opportunity to finally pull out the long sword, and asked, "Who are you?"

Those who can have such skills will definitely not be unknown in the Jianghu.

The assassin stared at Zhao Dongting coldly, then suddenly floated back, escaped from the encirclement of the soldiers, and jumped onto the wall in the blink of an eye.

Le Wuwei chased after him, but the assassin flicked his left hand repeatedly, but there were several hidden weapons shooting towards him.

When Le Wu got rid of these hidden weapons, the assassin had already jumped off the wall and disappeared, leaving only two words floating around, "Li Ge!"

When Le Wuhui heard these two words, his face couldn't help changing slightly.

Li Ge, the number one killer in Jianghu.
