The phoenix of the daughter's rebirth is all over the world

Chapter 437 Offering the City to Surrender
In the 28th year of Emperor Zhao, early summer.

Because the emperor was suspicious by nature, suspicious of heroes, he changed his generals in front of the battle, and the Xi army was defeated.Although there are loyal officials waiting for Qingyuan to protect Yuzhou, they want to invite the regent Xiao Que to take over the command.

But the general trend has come, even Xiao Que has no way to turn back. Under the persecution of Qing Yuanhou and the officials of Yuzhou, Xiao Que regained the commander seal, but ordered to open the city and descend the phoenix...

Qingyuanhou's face paled in an instant, looking at the young man in front of him who said these words in a regretful tone, but in the depths of his eyes, Qingyuanhou couldn't see any sorrow or regret at all.

It seemed that in an instant, he understood everything. From the moment he led his troops to the expedition, all his intentions were not to force Emperor Zhao to take this world, but to give away the entire Xi Kingdom!

From the very beginning, Emperor Zhao sent him to fight, but Xiao Que understood better than anyone else that although Emperor Zhao had used him heavily over the years, he did not have any trust in him at all. He guessed that Emperor Zhao would send him , He is extremely loyal to the royal family of Xi Kingdom, and he accompanied the army.

At first he was very wary of Xiao Que, but when he deliberately let him guess his identity, the suspicion turned into trust.He was smart all his life, but he was only defeated by his loyalty to the Xuan family!
Remorseful and annoyed, the Marquis of Qingyuan grabbed the sword from the servant's hand fiercely. The sword came out of the sheath with a "chuckle" and was placed on Xiao Que's neck, "You are going to ruin the century-old foundation of the Xuan family! Are you doing the right thing from the ancestors of the Xuan family!"

The originally sunny weather turned cloudy, and the officials who were already ashen-faced outside looked at each other when they heard the words of Qingyuanhou. Seeing that the two were confronting each other, those officials who followed Qingyuanhou retreated silently. There was room for the two of them.In such a world, the less the royal family knows about certain things, the better.

Xiao Que didn't dodge anything, and pointed his sword at him, with a calm expression, and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, it's not me who ruined the foundation of Xi Kingdom, but he..."

Qingyuan Hou Chihong looked at Xiao Que: "The Xuan family does not have such an unworthy descendant like you! If you want to dedicate the city, then step over my corpse and the corpses of a hundred thousand Imperial Forest Army!"

That was the most elite part of the Xi State army's fighting power. If Xiao Que could not lead the Xi State army to fight back today, then it would be impossible for him to watch Xiao Que offer the city and surrender.

Who knows, after hearing what Qing Yuanhou said, Xiao Que sneered, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said: "Master Hou, isn't it strange that I was the commander-in-chief of the three armies from the beginning, but I didn't directly order people to dedicate the city, but Choose to show up after more than a month of siege? Choose to order people to open the city and surrender at such a time?"

That man's cold brows and eyes seemed to hide the sharpness of the blade. He clearly held the sword in his hand, and clearly he was the one who took the top spot, but Qing Yuanhou felt that in the confrontation between the two, he was at a disadvantage...

Yes, why did Xiao Que do so much? In the beginning, instead of directly dedicating the city, he led the army to narrowly defeat Huangguo, forcing Huangguo to the point of no return. If Emperor Zhao hadn’t changed his generals, the winner would have been Xi country...

No, Emperor Zhao's change of general was not an accident, it was also the calculation of such a terrible young man.

Why did Emperor Zhao replace Yuan Qing at the critical moment of the battle between the two armies?Even though he was suspicious by nature, he would not ignore Xi's century-old foundation, otherwise he would not let Xiao Que lead the army at a difficult time.

Naturally, he had a lot of doubts in his heart. After he put Yuan Qing under house arrest, he asked him overnight.

In the capital, they didn't know that the confrontation between the armies of the Xi Kingdom and the Huang Kingdom was a matter of life and death, but the news of success was frequent, and victory was just around the corner.

It's not that he didn't have doubts in his heart, but the thought of doubt disappeared in a flash. How could the descendants of the Xuan family do such a thing?
Now, everything is finally understood, this is Xiao Que's deliberate doing.

In the documents submitted to the capital, he explained the situation in Yuzhou evasively, which caused the illusion of everyone in the capital.

Xiguo has the upper hand, and will be able to return to the court in a short time.

He knew Emperor Zhao's character, self-willed, ruthless and ruthless, and the courtiers all said that Emperor Zhao would give Xiao Que Jiuxi's life. If Xiao Que won the battle this time, Emperor Zhao would have no reason to refuse the reward when the teacher returned to the court.

So...he changed generals just before the battle, and moved Yuan Qing to the border because he thought that the day of victory could wait. When Yuan Qing arrived at the border, Xiao Que didn't have any rejections to hand in the general's seal, and that was also part of his plan.

Afterwards, as expected, the soldiers of the Xi Kingdom lost their minds, and the soldiers of the Huang Kingdom broke through the siege with an unstoppable momentum, and instead forced the Xi Kingdom to the city of Yuzhou.

The city of Yuzhou was destroyed, and all the crimes were committed in Yuanqing and Emperor Zhao. The royal family was in decline, and the only bit of majesty left was gone.

At such a time, he was the hope of everyone in the army, but he said the word surrender, how can anyone in the army fight for the country of Xi again...

This is such a terrifying person, step by step, everyone is in his calculations, without using a single soldier, but can easily defeat the hearts of the people, even the Xi Kingdom's millions of soldiers defeated...

The [-] Imperial Forest Army is absolutely loyal to him and the royal family, at worst, they will be defeated by Xiao Que, and Xiao Que cannot be allowed to sacrifice the country of Xi.

Thinking of this, Qing Yuanhou gained confidence in his uneasy heart, looked directly at Xiao Que and said: "You have done so much, and you didn't dedicate the city from the beginning, isn't it because you are afraid of the [-] soldiers in my hands? Xiao Que, even though you use tricks to make people panic, and those mobs and cowards join forces with you, but the one hundred thousand soldiers and horses brought from the capital in my hands are loyal to the royal family, and they will not let you order them!"

After Qingyuanhou's words fell, Xiao Que's mouth evoked a meaningful smile, looked at Qingyuanhou and said lightly: "Master Hou, do you really think so?"

The smile on the corner of his mouth made Qingyuan Hou feel an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.The most important point came to mind—why did Xiao Que wait for more than a month before making a move? What kind of opportunity was he waiting for?
"The three generals of the Yulin Army, Zhao Yu and the Xie family are close friends, Zhang Feng has received my favor, and there is one..."

He could imagine that if Xiao Que opened the city, the [-] soldiers and horses with the strongest fighting power would never let Xiao Que dispatch them. He could think of what he could think of based on that person's terrible calculation.

Zhao Yu, Zhang Feng, and Qian Zexu are all senior generals of the Yulin Army. They have been with him for many years. He knows the relationship between Zhao Yu and the Xie family. Man, he believed that his behavior would definitely not become Xiao Que's accomplice like the Xie family.

But unexpectedly, Zhang Feng had received Xiao Que's favor, Zhang Feng and Zhao Yu had a deep brotherly relationship, so maybe the two had already betrayed the imperial court.But there is one person among the three, that is Qian Zexu - that is his brother who has followed him for many years, the two are life and death friends, among the three, he will definitely not be in the same boat as Xiao Que.But... Today when they went out here to invite Xiao Que, Qian Zexu asked for leave and did not see him in his camp. It was the soldiers around him who came to tell him. Could it be that he refused to cooperate with Xiao Que? When it comes to misfortune...

At the moment when Qingyuan Hou lost his mind, Xiao Que flicked away the sword on his neck with his fingers. He only used three percent of his internal strength, but Qingyuan Hou felt his jaw go numb and the sword fell off.

Although Qing Yuanhou was foolish and loyal, he had never done anything evil, Xiao Que would not kill Qing Yuanhou, and ordered: "Take Master Hou down, so that he can take care of him."

It's just house arrest.

Seeing that he wanted to put himself under house arrest, Qingyuanhou was naturally unwilling to die, and wanted to pick up the sword that Xiao Que had knocked down on the ground to fight back, but felt a chill on the side of his neck... He turned around and saw the most familiar sword in his life. a face.

"Deputy General Qian, you actually..." When Qing Yuanhou saw that familiar face, the shock in his heart was self-evident.

Once a brother who lived and died, he once carried him who was seriously injured and walked in the desert for a day and a night to save him, but he didn't expect that the two of them would end up fighting with swords!Is it because people's hearts are changeable, or power can change people too much.

Qian Zexu looked at Shang Qingyuanhou with pity, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his face, but only for a moment, "Master Hou, it's not that we want to betray you, but that we want to give our brothers a way out. We... ...It doesn't matter if we die, we can't let the brothers under his command die in vain for such an emperor..."

He lowered his head, Deputy General Qian explained in a low voice, Qing Yuanhou's heart was icy cold.

Looking at that young man standing there, even in a simple room, he still couldn't conceal his elegance. No one thought that the century-old foundation of Xi Kingdom would be ruined in his hands!

Yes, the brothers who have followed him for many years may not be tempted by fame and fortune, nor will they be afraid of life and death, but it depends on whether the lord who sacrificed for him is worth it.

No matter how loyal and patriotic he is, he has no right to decide that millions of soldiers will follow him and die for Emperor Zhao.

Xiao Que did a good job at this point, causing the soldiers to lose all hope, and only saw the sliver of life that he arranged. Those who want fame and wealth will get fame and fortune, and those who want stability will get security. He is indeed the famous young master Yuyan Ah, everyone can only follow the path laid out by him, and no one can resist!

Seeing that the most loyal lieutenants around him had already betrayed, not to mention the mob in Yuzhou City, Qingyuan Hou was completely disheartened at this time, and was detained by Qian Zexu.

It took more than a month, the layout, Xiaozhi used emotion and reason to lobby the most trusted lieutenants around Qingyuanhou to surrender, and the thought it took was naturally beyond belief.

Fortunately, he did it, and now all the soldiers and horses in the entire city of Yuzhou are obeying his command, Qingyuan Hou has been brought under control, Emperor Zhao's last hope has been cut off, all he has to do is wait for the army to approach the capital...

At such a moment, even Xiao Que didn't feel relieved, because he knew that the real storm had just begun, and the struggle between him and Emperor Zhao was finally coming to an end.
