Apprentice of the Heavens

Chapter 106 Returning to Yuzhou
capital city of shu

On the tower, Wang Yan looked at Qi Jun who was in full swing ten miles away, and couldn't help feeling extremely bitter, accompanied by deep regret.

The civil and military officials who were already in a mess behind them, the panicked soldiers around the people, and even the imperial army of the Shu Kingdom were extremely demoralized at this time.

Seeing everything, Wang Yan felt more and more bitter in his heart, and couldn't help muttering in his heart when he saw the continuous Qi army outside the city.

"Now there are only 3 horses in the city, or surrender."

Looking back at the palace in the city, the chair was not warm yet. After a long battle between heaven and man, Wang Yan turned and left the tower.

Second day

Li Ming didn't take any action, but just strengthened his defense, as if he was just leading 10,000+ people on a trip, but this move made Wang Yan, who had been terrified all night, heaved a sigh of relief, and then kept sending out scouts to inquire about the Qi Army's intelligence On the city wall, the soldiers kept paying attention to the movement of the Qi army day and night.

This has been the case for three consecutive days, but it made the Shu army puzzled. However, they did not dare to slack off in the face of the Qi army. They could only keep tense for fear that the Qi army would suddenly attack. Is to make the city more and more panic all day long
fifth day

Li Ming looked at the tall city wall in the distance, and his eyes narrowed. The Qi army had recovered after many days of recharging their energy, and it was time to draw a perfect end to this campaign.

With the sound of a horn, the Shu army, which had already been frightened like a bird, couldn't help but panic. It took a long time to prepare for the defense of the city under the command of the general. Watchtower.

When Wang Yan came to the city tower, the Qi army had already entered the three-mile distance with neat steps at this time, and the sky above his head was even more aroused. As the Qi army got closer and closer, the dark clouds in the sky also shrouded the city tower, like Dark clouds overwhelm the city like it wants to destroy it

On the tower, Wang Yan looked at the Qi army with high morale, then looked at the panicked Shu army around him, his heart sank, and then he looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and the thought of surrender flashed in his heart

Seeing that the distance was enough, Li Ming stretched out his hand, the messenger waved the flag in his hand, and then the sound of the drum changed, and the Qi army stopped in unison

After Li Ming commanded the next cannon to be pushed out to correct the angle, the fuse was ignited with a wave of Li Ming's big hand, and a moment later a deafening cannon sound resounded through the sky.
As the shells exploded on the city wall, the Shu army became a mess in an instant, like ants on a hot pot, looking for shelter everywhere. After several rounds of shelling, the city was filled with black smoke.
Li Ming saw that the fire was almost ready, so he was ready to attack
"Siege engine...huh?"

Li Ming, who was about to command the Qi army to attack, looked at the waving flags on the tower, raised his hand and couldn't help thinking for a moment, then his gesture changed.

After a while, the battlefield fell silent, and the black smoke on the city wall slowly dissipated, and a white flag was fluttering in the wind.

Then the gates of Chengdu opened wide, and several generals couldn't help but look at each other

Lu Lin looked at Li Ming and hesitated for a moment, then said

"Will there be fraud in it?"

Li Ming heard that the golden light in his eyes was shining, but he shook his head as he glanced over the city tower.

"Lead your troops into the city, and remember not to disturb the people in the city"

After speaking, he rode his horse and marched slowly towards the city gate. The generals had no choice but to send an order to lead the Qi army to advance towards the city gate. The march all the way was very smooth.

Upstairs

Li Ming looked at Wang Yan's body, but he never expected that the battle would go so smoothly. Wang Yan was also unlucky that the shell hit him impartially. The guard of the Shu Kingdom raised the white flag.

"Anyway, I was the king of Shu, so let's bury him alive."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and left, but the rest of the officials who surrendered still needed his arrangements. It took Li Ming half a month to arrange everything properly. Some rebellions were also quickly suppressed.

After the arrangements were made, Li Ming couldn't help but relax, and then handed over the affairs to the civil servants sent from Qidi, and then left Chengdu mansion barefoot with a backpack on his back.
Yuzhou City

Li Ming looked at the flag of the Qi State on the city wall, and couldn't help sighing. The scenes in his memory emerged before his eyes. He stepped into the city and walked along the route in his memory. The people passing by seemed not affected by the demise of the State of Shu , still as lively as before.

The sound of hawking from the stalls, the sound of storytelling, the cheers of jugglers, and even the sound of selling the Qiguo Daily News.

Li Ming looked at the harmonious and bustling streets and couldn't help smiling. Then he wandered around the city for a while, but he lost interest in going any further. He disappeared on the street in a few flashes, and he had already arrived outside the city after a while.
Randomly found a place, opened the backpack, took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then embellished the drawing paper with a brush. A picture of Yuzhou soon appeared on the drawing paper. Li Ming put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and clipped the picture of Yuzhou into the In the catalog of mountains and rivers
"Too bad the donkey isn't here"

Li Ming shook his head and was about to leave, when a distant voice came to his ears, Li Ming moved his feet and changed direction
"Can you tell me?"

"The witch, the witch!"

But I saw a girl in the forest wearing a silver headdress, mainly dressed in pink and purple, wearing a Miaojiang silver necklace, two gourds around her waist, and a flute in her hand

An old man collapsed on the ground looked at the girl in grief and horror. He was dressed as a fortune teller and had white hair all over his head.
Pointing at the old fortune teller who collapsed on the ground with the flute in the girl's hand, she threatened in a raucous accent.

"If you dare to scold me, if you don't tell him his whereabouts, I'll be so tender."

The ground looked old, but the fortune-telling old man looked at the girl sadly and indignantly.
"Demon girl, you kill my wife and children, you kill me all over the house, even if you kill me, you will never get any news from me."

The young girl didn't seem to care about the grief and indignation of the fortune-telling old man

"It's not easy to kill you? But you have to tell me the whereabouts of the bad guy first."

"Demon girl, I don't want to live anyway, not to mention whether I can figure out who you are looking for, even if I figure it out, I won't tell you, you kill me!"

Li Ming looked at the scene in the forest

Chi Meng?

But seeing that the old man on the ground seemed to be determined to die, he couldn't help but frown, he moved his feet and came behind Chi Meng

"Let him go"

Chi Meng couldn't help being startled when he heard the voice behind him, but he didn't realize that anyone was approaching.

Surprised to see, she hurriedly turned her head to be on guard, but she couldn't help but see the light in her eyes

"Xiao Guoguo, who are you? You look so good."

Li Ming cast aside the unlovely old man and ignored Chi Meng's inquiry

"You detoxify him, I don't know bad handsome"
