Chapter 460 Capture
After reciting the Holy Maiden's Jade Instructions, the expressions of the disciples changed drastically, and they all looked solemnly at the Holy Maiden... It turned out that everything that happened during this period was already foreseen by the Holy Maiden!

The saint said, I am in trouble, and I want to travel far.Didn't it just happen to be in trouble during the long journey?The saint said again, General Tongtian is irreplaceable by anyone, and you must prevent someone from usurping his position...won't General Pingtian replace General Tongtian?Thinking of this, the believers couldn't help but feel a lot of shame. They felt very ashamed for not obeying the teachings of the saint and fighting to protect the position of General Tongtian.

As for the last sentence of the saint, the day when I return will be the day when you will escape from the sea of ​​suffering.It also ignited the flames of hope for everyone... In the past month, General Tongtian disappeared, General Pingtian eradicated dissidents, and the White Lotus Sect continued civil wars, which made the believers panic. What they prayed for day and night was the return of the saint. To quell the disputes and restore the original peace of Guangling.Therefore, all the believers worshiped the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus devoutly, and many of them even burst into tears.

This made Yu Gui, who was watching from the archery tower in the mansion, angry and anxious, he hurriedly said loudly: "Don't be deceived by her, she is a spy of the government, otherwise how could she come with the government army?"

This is getting to the point. The reason why many people still have a lot of worries about the saint is because they saw her appearing with the officers and soldiers.

Since Gu Xiaolian dared to appear as a saint, she naturally expected that he would say this, she smiled lightly, and said to herself: "Actually, General Tongtian came back long before me."

As soon as this remark came out, the crowd became restless. After all, most of them went up the mountain for Liu Zijin.Before Yu Gui and Han Tiancheng, they always said that General Tongtian was killed by the army. They were at a loss, so they regarded General Pingtian as their natural successor...

Hearing Gu Xiaolian's words, Yu Gui's face on the watchtower changed, and when he was about to say something, he was drowned out by the voices outside.Everyone asked: "Where is General Tongtian, why didn't you meet us?"

"General Tongtian can't meet with you, because he is currently closed in Pingxingguan, and he and his brothers are fighting bloody battles against traitors..." the saint said slowly.

This remark caused even greater commotion. The news that the siege army had seen Liu Zijin at Pingxingguan before was sealed up by Yu Gui, but there were too many people present that day, and the group of rebels happened to return to the city in rotation. , the news about General Tongtian's appearance at Pingxingguan is actually very popular.At this moment, the saint verified the rumors with her own mouth, and made those believers who didn't know the truth completely angry, and shouted towards the arrow tower of the general's mansion: "General Pingtian, is that so? Why did you fabricate the news of General Tongtian's death. And kill him!"

"..." Yu Gui on the Arrow Tower was immediately extremely passive. Although it was no secret in the middle and high ranks of the rebel army that he had killed Liu Zi and replaced him, the ordinary believers had been kept in the dark. They simply thought that General Pingtian and General Pingtian General Tongtian is a good brother, and the purpose of attacking Pingxingguan is to eliminate the traitors!

Now it seems that General Pingtian is the real traitor!
Feeling the contempt in the eyes of the people looking at him, Yu Gui hurriedly diverted the trouble and shouted at the saint: "This witch is bringing an army to destroy us, how can you believe her nonsense?"

The believers also thought about it, no matter what, the saint appeared in the Ming army, and the Ming army was their enemy!
Gu Xiaolian had been prepared for a long time, and said with a faint smile: "I am looking for a way out for you. Now that the country is united and the world is united, how can we fight against the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court with a mere county? If we continue to resist, there is only one way to die." , I asked the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty to promise that as long as you put down your weapons, he promises not to chase you and others, and only punish the chief evil person!"

This remark made the crowd commotion, many people naturally didn't take it seriously, they came up the mountain to rebel, even if the court didn't blame them, what's the point of going back to continue farming and being exploited by the government?But there are also many people who are moved... They went up the mountain to come in for the legendary Liu Zijin. They saw that the myth of Liu Zijin was shattered, and then they knew that they had been fooled. The army broke through Guangling, and the whole family was beheaded.Now that the imperial court is willing to pardon them, that would be the best...

Yu Gui on the watchtower secretly sneered, a pardon would make them turn against each other, you must have underestimated the White Lotus Sect!
If this group of people had already been pushed to the brink, a sentence of pardon would still have some effect, but now that the Ming Cultists and the rebels are in the ascendant, the weight of this sentence would be insufficient.Even if it was said by the saint.However, Gu Xiaolian didn't expect to be able to deal with this group of people. She still had a hole in her hand: "If you wish, His Highness Taisun also welcomes you to join Daming's army, and keep the establishment intact."

These words have little effect on those pious believers, but they are more attractive to those rebel officers.They didn't want to surrender to the officers and soldiers because they were used to the life of yelling and drinking, and they didn't want to go back to the old days of bitterness.Many officers actually blurted out: "Really?"

"I swear to the Buddha, if there is even half a false statement, I will fall into Avici Hell, suffer the karmic fire of the red lotus, and never be reborn forever!" The saint solemnly swore, pinching Fayin.

Whether you believe in religion or not, seeing her make such a heavy oath, I believe it in my heart.But whether to agree or not, there are so many people in the field who have their own ideas, and it became a mess for a while...

Wang Xian looked at this scene with cold eyes, and he didn't expect that 10,000+ believers and nearly [-] troops would surrender at one stroke with the words of the saint.He just needs the current chaos to buy time for his army to break into the General's Mansion.

At this moment, there was a loud bang, and a cloud of gray-black smoke rose from the west wall of the General's Mansion, and then bricks and tiles fell like raindrops, and an eight-foot-wide hole was blasted in that section of the wall... …This is a self-made explosive pack of the young army. Although the power of the gunpowder is not enough at this time, the wall is not a city wall. As long as the amount is sufficient, it is still very easy to explode a section.

Before the gunpowder smoke cleared, soldiers of the Ming army swarmed in from the entrance of the cave.Most of the original defenders of this section of the wall were killed and injured by the bombing, and the rest were also dizzy, and the Ming army broke in easily.The defenders from other places rushed to assist in the defense, but their own defense line was precarious. The sound of killing, screaming, and clashing weapons... resounded in all directions of the general's mansion.

But that voice seemed to have nothing to do with the surrounding 'reinforcement forces'. The believers and the army were arguing fiercely. There were troops loyal to Yu Gui who wanted to rush in to rescue them, while believers loyal to Liu Zijin and the Holy Maiden tried to stop them... In the era of cold weapons, the army The difference from ordinary people is not that big, and Mingjiao is all soldiers. Ordinary believers are carrying simple knives and long spears, and many of them are wearing armor, so the confrontation is unambiguous.

Seeing the internal strife among the reinforcements on the other side, Wang Xian put his heart on hold, and from the rear army responsible for blocking the attack, he dispatched a thousand fresh troops to reinforce the army that stormed the general's mansion!And people kept shouting: "Only catch Yu Gui, let's not talk about the rest!" ''Anyone who captures Yu Gui and comes to vote will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver and titles to hundreds of households! '

These words reached Yu Gui's ears, which made him extremely anxious. He felt that the eyes of the people around him had changed... as if they were looking at a baby!
'Put down your arms, surrender without killing! ''Those who resist to the end will be killed without mercy! The Ming army's slogans followed one after another, causing the defenders who were in danger and could not wait for reinforcements to be confused. Many people were fighting to the death one moment, but dropped their weapons and surrendered in the next moment.The Ming army added another thousand fresh troops, and after a while, the defenders were defeated one after another, and the Ming army entered the mansion from all directions almost at the same time.

Seeing that he was about to be trapped in the watchtower if he didn't withdraw, Yu Gui hurried down under his guards, but Mo Wen, who had been staring at him all the time, saw him go, and immediately ordered someone to shout: "Yu Gui is dead! Yu Gui is dead!"

All kinds of slogans were replaced by the phrase 'Yu Gui is dead!Yu Gui is dead! The defenders who were fighting stubbornly at the corner couldn't help but look towards the archery tower. As expected, General Pingtian was nowhere to be seen. They immediately lost their fighting spirit, dropped their weapons and surrendered on their knees.

The rebels who were about to go in for reinforcements were busy yelling at the believers who blocked them just now, and they didn't notice the situation of the arrow tower. Now, looking at it, there was no one there, and they believed what the Ming army said...they had some conflicts in the first place , Do you listen to the saint, or hang out with General Pingtian?Now that Yu Gui died, they didn't think so much, although they wouldn't turn against each other immediately, they gradually stopped talking and stood on the sidelines.

Over there, the Ming army had already breached the General's Mansion. At this time, even Yu Gui's hard-core subordinates were defeated like a mountain. In the blink of an eye, the Ming army broke through the Yi Gate and the Second Gate one after another. Surround Yu Gui and hundreds of his personal guards in the back office.

Seeing that it was difficult to fly, Yu Gui looked up to the sky and sighed. From the day of the rebellion, he had thought that there would be a day when he would be defeated and die, but he was not afraid, because he was 66 years old, and it would be better to die in battle than to die on the sick bed. The battlefield is not in vain to come to this world.But he never expected that he would be defeated in such a useless way... Even without a decent resistance, he was taken to his lair by the Ming army. It is really shameful, so shameful!

"General, let's cover you and shoot out through the back door!" Seeing that he was stupid, the guards had no choice but to wake him up.

"I can't get out." Yu Gui shook his head and said, "Even if the old man can break through the blocking of the Ming army, he will be captured and given to the officers and soldiers by those who are bent on betraying his master for glory!"

"General, is this really the only way to go?" The guards wept, "How could this be? Did our [-] army lose before they resisted?"

"Old man Zhida has fallen into other people's schemes, what can I do?" Yu Gui sighed and said, "You have been with me for so many years, it is better to take advantage of you than to take advantage of others." He said with a miserable smile: "Tie me up and send me away." Give it to the officers and soldiers."

"General, woo woo..." Although many people really thought this way, they were still very moved when they heard him say that.
