Chapter 787

Tang Yin felt that Qiu Zhen's opinion made sense, and was about to send someone to the Zuo Xiangfu, when Zhang Zhihong came.

Now the Feng and Ning armies have been in chaos in Liangzhou City. There are fights everywhere in the streets and alleys. The people of Ningguo are too scared to go out, and the officials of Ningguo dare not show their heads. Zhang Zhihong is different from others. He thinks he has something to rely on. He was the one who brought the Feng army into the city. He should be the first to make the contribution when the Feng army breaks the city.

He came to the palace to find Tang Yin, mainly to help Tang Yin control the situation. He also didn't want Liangzhou to be in chaos, with too many casualties and too many buildings or facilities destroyed. After all, he is the new Ning Wang in the future, and Ningguo will be governed by him in the future. Now, Zhang Zhihong is completely considering the problem from the perspective of Ning Wang.

Hearing that Zhang Zhihong came, Tang Yin shook his head and smiled. He hadn't gone to find him yet, but he took the initiative to come to the door. This is also good, saving himself trouble.

He asked someone to bring Zhang Zhihong in. Not long after, Zhang Zhihong walked in quickly from outside under the guidance of two Fengjun guards.

Entering the hall, Zhang Zhihong saw Tang Yin sitting in the middle at a glance. He quickly straightened his clothes, stepped forward, knelt down and kowtowed, saying: "Your Highness, the Right Prime Minister of Ningguo, Zhang Zhihong, pays homage to His Highness, the King of Feng!"

Tang Yin sat there without moving, just smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "Prime Minister Zhang, please stand up!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, the King of Feng!" Zhang Zhihong stood up, then raised his eyes and looked straight at Tang Yin, or rather, looked straight at the throne he was sitting on.

Tang Yin was so smart that he could tell what he was thinking. He smiled secretly in his heart, but pretended to be confused and asked, "Prince Zhang came to the palace to see me late at night. What can I do for you?"

He didn't mention the succession to the throne, so Zhang Zhihong didn't take the initiative to ask. After a moment of silence, Zhang Zhihong asked carefully, "Your Highness, when I entered the palace just now, I saw a severed head hanging outside the palace gate. That's..."

"That's the severed head of the traitor Yan Chu." Tang Yin said lightly.

Ah? Yan Chu is dead? Zhang Zhihong took a breath of cold air, feeling horrified, happy, and a little sad. He couldn't tell what it felt like. He was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. He rolled his eyes and said, "Your Highness, since Yan Chu is dead, the fighting in the city should be stopped immediately."

Tang Yin shrugged and said, "I don't want the fighting to continue, but the Ning army refuses to surrender, and I can't do anything!"

Zhang Zhihong said, "Your Majesty, you can take the military order to order the Ning army to stop fighting!"

Tang Yin turned his head to look at Qiu Zhen. Zhang Zhihong thought the same as him. He nodded and said, "I have sent someone to the left prime minister's mansion to ask Gao Shan to hand over the military order."

Zhang Zhihong frowned secretly. Gao Shan was his political enemy and one of the most prestigious dignitaries in Ningguo. If this man didn't die, his throne as the Ning king would definitely not be stable. He said solemnly: "Gao Dan has always been loyal to Yan Chu. Now that Yan Chu is dead, Gao Dan will definitely fight to the end. It is impossible to ask him to hand over half of the military token voluntarily. He can only hand it over by force."

Tang Yin responded and asked again: "Gao Dan only has half of the military token?"

Zhang Zhihong said: "Yes, the other half is in the hands of the king... no, in the hands of Yan Chu."

Tang Yin looked at the Shangguan brothers and Asan and Asi on the left and right with inquiry.

Shangguan Yuanwu said: "Your Majesty, Yan Chu did not find any objects such as military tokens on him."

Without waiting for Tang Yin to speak, Zhang Zhihong continued: "It must be in the study."

Tang Yin blinked and said: "Yuanwu, Yuanbiao, go to the study and search. No matter what, you must find half of the military token."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

The Shangguan brothers agreed and left quickly.

Zhang Zhihong's guess was really correct. The Shangguan brothers went to Yan Chu's study and found half of the military token without much effort.

It was not so easy for the Feng army to go to the Zuo Xiangfu.

Gao Shan did not run away, and a large number of Ning generals gathered in the mansion, including General Ming Xiaotian, Lieutenant General Jin Huan, Shen Fang and other senior generals of Ning. They knew that the Feng army had broken through the palace, but they did not know that Yan Chu was dead. They gathered in the Zuo Xiangfu and were still discussing how to break into the palace and rescue the king.

As a result, before they could come up with a countermeasure, the Feng army led by Cheng Jin, Nan Ye, Li Sheng and other generals came in a mighty force.

At this time, there were many Ning troops gathered outside the Zuo Xiangfu, as many as thousands of people. After the two sides met, they immediately fought to the death without saying a word.

The soldiers on the Feng army side were mainly new troops, and their combat effectiveness was not strong, but there were Cheng Jin's hidden arrows mixed in, which posed a great threat to the Ning army.

The two sides did not fight for long, and the Ning army, which was small in number and power, began to be unable to resist and collapsed into the Zuo Xiangfu.

Seeing that the enemies had retreated to the mansion, the Feng army surrounded the Zuo Xiangfu and shouted inside, asking Gao Dan to come out and surrender.

After shouting for a while, there was movement in the mansion. Gao Dan was helped to climb the ladder, holding the courtyard wall, and shouted to the outside: "Ask your general to come out and talk!"

Nan Ye, Li Sheng and others were nearby. Hearing Gao Dan's shouting, everyone looked at each other, no one came forward, and finally their eyes fell on Cheng Jin. Cheng Jin was of low military rank, but high status, and his qualifications were there, so all the generals naturally respected him as the leader.

Cheng Jin smiled and said to Nan Ye: "You are the main general, you should go and talk to the other party."

Nan Ye said a few more humble words, and seeing Cheng Jin's firm attitude, he stopped refusing, walked out of the crowd, and shouted: "I am Nan Ye, the general of Feng State, who are you?"

Gao Dan stared at Nanye for a moment, took a deep breath and said, "I'm the left prime minister, Gao Dan!"

"Oh! So you are Prime Minister Gao! You are the one we are looking for." Nanye smiled, cupped his hands and said: "Prime Minister Gao, as long as you hand over the military talisman, we will not do anything in the autumn and keep you safe. If not, hehe..." He I didn't finish the sentence on purpose, but the meaning was already obvious.

Gao Dan secretly gritted his teeth and said: "You can ask me to hand over the military talisman, but you must let my king go!"

Nanye was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the generals, then burst into laughter, shook his head and said: "Prime Minister, I can't give it back to you, your king."

"how?"

"Now Yan Chu's head is hanging outside the palace gate. If I want to return it to you, I'm afraid I can only return your headless body."

"What are you talking about?" Upon hearing this, the old man's head buzzed, his body leaned back, and he almost fell off the ladder.

Ming Xiaotian and others standing in the courtyard also heard what Nan Ye said. People were shocked for a while and couldn't recover for a long time.

After a brief silence, Ming Xiaotian let out a strange scream and shouted to the left and right: "Don't listen to the wind thief's nonsense, brothers, shoot your arrows!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ning soldiers who were hiding behind the courtyard wall stood up one after another, strung their arrows, and started firing volleys at the Feng army outside the city.

Nan Ye, who was standing in front of the crowd, was the first to bear the brunt. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and had deep cultivation, so he put on his spiritual armor in time, otherwise he would have been shot into a hedgehog on the spot.

Even so, Nanye was shot down from his horse by the opponent's arrow array. He was fine, but his horse was shot into a hornet's nest by random arrows.

Nanye was furious and shouted at the surrounding soldiers: "Attack the entire army and kill all the rebels inside!"

As the commander-in-chief of the new army, Nanye was in contact with Ningren all the time. When speaking, he would no longer use the sensitive word "Ning thief" but instead use the word "treasonous thief".

Although the officers and soldiers of the New Army are all from Ning, they also respect the respected Left Prime Minister Gao Dan, but in the army, they have to act according to military orders, regardless of whether the military orders are in line with their wishes. In addition, Nanye also treats the officers and soldiers under his command very much. It's really good, everyone is treated equally, and people are willing to follow his instructions.

Following Nanye's order, the new army launched a unified attack. How could a mere left prime minister's mansion with thousands of defenders withstand the fierce attack of tens of thousands of wind troops? Not long after, several places in Zuo Xiang's Mansion were broken through by the Feng Army. A large number of Feng Army poured into the courtyard from outside and started close combat with Ning Army.

Both sides are Ningren, and if they are raised individually, there is no distinction between strength and strength. At this time, whichever side has more people will have the advantage. The number of the Feng Army was several times or even ten times that of the Ning Army, so they naturally had the advantage. Soon, the entire formation of the Ning Army was overwhelmed by the Feng Army, and the two sides started a chaotic melee in Zuo Xiang's Mansion.

Three Ningguo generals, Ming Xiaotian, Jin Huan, and Shen Fang, protected Gao Dan and retreated to the lobby. At this time, the three generals' faces had turned extremely ugly. They looked at Gao Dan helplessly and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Gao Dan , the king has been killed by Feng Jun, Liangzhou has fallen, should we... we still surrender..."

Before they could finish their words, Gao Dan was furious and shouted: "Your Majesty has been kind to us. Even if we are shattered to pieces, we cannot fully repay your kindness to Your Majesty. How can you surrender to the wind thief so easily?" ?”

Ming Xiaotian and the three of them blushed at what he said, and they all lowered their heads.

But the Feng army outside could not be dismissed by him in a few words. On the battlefield, the number of Ning troops was getting smaller and smaller. Looking around, they were all surrounded by Feng troops. Many Ning troops had no choice but to give up resistance and surrender when surrounded by Feng troops.

Fortunately, the opponents of the Ning Army were the New Army, all from Ning. They were very polite to the surrendered Ning soldiers and did not kill them indiscriminately. They just controlled them and kept them under strict supervision.

The first ones to break into the hall were the hidden arrow personnel. More than a dozen diners next to Gao Dan fell into a pool of blood under the attack of the secret arrow personnel. When Jin Huan saw this, he shouted, rushed over with his sword, and fought with the secret arrow personnel. Fight to one point.

He was a military commander, and his spiritual power was very strong, but he could not withstand the group attacks of dozens of dark element spiritual masters.

After only a few rounds, Jin Huan was slashed all over by hidden arrows. His spiritual armor was in pieces, and he stood there, crumbling. Shen Fang and Jin Huan had a close personal relationship. Seeing that he could not support himself, he shouted and rushed forward.

But there was no way he could return. He was tightly entangled by the secret assassins like a pack of wolves, making it difficult for him to escape.
