Chapter 708 End
thump
The corpse fell in front of everyone, making only a low muffled sound.
The city lord of a small town in the Southern Alliance used his death to reject the solicitation from Nanchuan.
Seeing this scene, everyone was a little silent. During the expedition, they were used to seeing too many people who were greedy for life and afraid of death, and they were also used to seeing too many people who were willing to sacrifice themselves for the common people. It seemed like this was the first time that they had such integrity.
"Why do we become people who kill indiscriminately in the eyes of others?" Wang Lingxi was a little confused.
"In troubled times like this, everyone thinks differently and sees different things. It's like looking at star fruits when you were young. Some people see them as round, while others see them as five-pointed." Suan Sansheng replied, shaking his head: "For Zhu Wen, what he sees is What happened was that the arrival of Nanchuan crushed the originally peaceful Southern Alliance."
"From his perspective, Nanchuan was a wild beast that devoured his originally harmonious and beautiful homeland and destroyed the originally prosperous Southern Alliance."
"But the conquest is like this. If we want to establish a new order, we need to break everything that is there." A commander said: "We rise with King Ye and swear to end the troubled times. If there is no conquest and no unification, there will be no end. ”
"Is it right for the heroes to divide themselves and let the human race continue to be at war forever?"
"Alas." When Wang Lingxi heard this, he looked at the empty city and sighed slightly: "He sent all the people away, but in these troubled times, where can the unarmed people go."
"Wouldn't such a decision still allow the people to suffer for his integrity?"
After saying this, everyone was helpless. As Shuan Sansheng said, from their perspective, Nanchuan wanted to be unified, which could not be achieved with words.
Ye Wang's rise all the way, from Yuncheng to Nange to Nanchuan, and now sweeping the south, was not achieved by words.
If the two sides are on opposite sides and cannot reconcile, one party must step down.
"But for being able to do this, I think he is admired enough." Jing Ling also put forward his own thoughts: "He has his own ideas and his own persistence. At most, he can only say that he is not on the same path as us, and he cannot Deny that he is a good official."
"It doesn't matter whether you are a good official or not." Suan Sansheng shook his feather fan and looked at Ye Fan.
Everyone also looked at Ye Fan, as if they wanted to get the answer from Ye Fan.
Ye Fan's eyes stayed on the body that fell to the ground, and facing these questioning eyes, he just shook his head.
“From the moment I chose this path, I was no longer afraid of questioning.”
"My kindness is only to my subjects."
After saying this, Ye Fan took steps again.
Now, he has figured out many things, and he is extremely determined. He will not change because of the death of a person, nor will he be shaken by the destruction of a city.
No matter whether it was arguments about right or wrong or misunderstandings by others, no obstruction or interference could stop him from his determination to end it all.
Just as he said to the giant that day, if he could, he would not fight with the only emperor in ancient times. But the root of the problem is that no one can stand in the whirlpool of this chaotic world. No one can stand from God's perspective. Everyone has their own truth.
It doesn't matter who is right or wrong, there is no difference between right and wrong. Whoever comes to the end, who ends everything, is the only person who can safeguard his own truth.
"Enter the city."
Behind him, watching Ye Fan take steps, Sansheng also waved his feather fan, and the order was conveyed. Everyone was no longer silent, and each commanded the troops to enter the city in front of them.
…
"Xiao Xusong, open the door!"
In the north, under the tall city gate, Zhao Gao raised his head and shouted to the guard, looking very anxious.
This is not like King Zhao.
In the past few months, he had been completely defeated. The King of the North defeated him in a decisive battle in Mingzhou City, forcing him to withdraw with his army and seek refuge with his allies along the way.
And this withdrawal was over. The forces that had spoken out to support him before the war turned against him one after another, and came out to accuse him of treason for attacking Wang Ting. Some even sent troops to attack him. It seemed that the moment he withdrew from Mingzhou, everyone changed. Face.
The King of the North followed closely behind him, and he could only keep running away, hoping to find a place to take a breather, reorganize himself, and then make a comeback. As a result, he ran away. He did not find a place to take a breather. Instead, the army that attacked him became more and more numerous. more.
All parties are sending troops, and at the end of the day, it seems that the entire north is encircling him. Everyone is eager to get rid of him, personally cut off his head, and then ask for rewards from the puppet king of the North.
"Xiao Xusong, open the door for me!" Behind him, the roar of the army seemed to be heard again. Looking at the empty gate tower, Zhao Gao became anxious.
"Xiao Xusong, how come I forgot about you when you were down and out?"
"When you were chased by your enemies and pushed into the toilet pit to eat shit, who saved you?"
"I rewarded you with a bite of rice, Xiao Xusong, and you are what you are today! Now that I am in despair, is this how you treat me?"
"Open the door for me!!! Xiao Xusong, you wolf-hearted thing!"
"..."
Hua Hua Hua Hua.
Zhao Gao was still cursing. Suddenly, rows of people appeared on the city gate, and the black muzzles were all aimed at Zhao Gao's defeated soldiers.
The air was a little quiet at this moment. The army behind King Zhao looked up and felt suffocated and depressed. Most of their armors were broken, and the beasts beside them were also scarred.
The defeated army could no longer withstand any more blows.
"Xiao Xusong? What do you want to do?" Zhao Gao's eyes were focused on the white-robed man in the center of the city gate tower, seemingly incredulous.
"Are you going to betray me too?"
"King Zhao, you and I have been friends for many years, I didn't want to stop you." Xiao Xusong replied, his words were righteous: "But what can I do? King Zhao betrayed the court and even wanted to break through the north, doing such a thing that is outrageous to both humans and gods."
"You fart!" Zhao Gao cursed: "When we captured Mingzhou, you were the first to stand up and support it!"
"I am an official appointed by the court, and I am dedicated to serving the human race. How could I do such an illegal thing with King Zhao." Xiao Xusong's tone was still upright, looking at Zhao Gao, his eyes moved horizontally, and a few figures in the distant skyline were as barely visible as black dots.
Looking at Zhao Gao again, Xiao Xusong's eyes flickered slightly:
"King Zhao, you have no way to escape, why don't you surrender?"
"Or, you are a king after all, if you abandon the army, there is no place in the world you can't go?"
When saying this, Xiao Xusong couldn't hide a sigh in his tone.
Even if he worked a little harder and made some more arrangements, it might not be difficult to become the fourth King Wen of the Zhao family. But what can he do, with such a background and such strength, Zhao Gao insisted on taking the stupidest path.
"How can the king abandon his troops and flee?"
Xiao Xusong's somewhat complicated words did not alert Zhao Gao. He refused directly and asked again: "Xiao Xusong, are you really not going to open the door?"
"Alas." Xiao Xusong shook his head and refused: "Zhao Gao, I won't open the door for you."
"Then don't blame me." Zhao Gao also became fierce again, and his momentum rose. Just as he was about to take off, several voices sounded behind him at the same time-
"Zhao Gao! Where do you want to escape to!!"
"King of Beidi!" Looking back, Zhao Gao saw that the pursuers had arrived. His mind was instantly in chaos. Just as he was about to lead the team to flee, Xiao Xusong's order sounded on the city gate tower: "Fire!"
Boom!
The sound of artillery fire sounded at this moment. Zhao Gao froze and turned his head. The sky was covered with artillery fire.
"Xiao Xusong! You ungrateful villain!"
As he spoke, Zhao Gao's aura burst out, and his powerful force shattered most of the artillery fire. While blocking them, the people of the Northern King had already arrived in the rear.
Soon, everyone was entangled together, and Zhao Gao's remaining troops were completely annihilated in this entanglement.
"After this battle, there will be no King Zhao in the world." On the city gate tower, Xiao Xusong looked at the anxious battlefield, and finally, he just shook his head.
"Zhao Gao, without you, no one in the world will say that I have a miserable past."
"You, even if you are smarter, you won't be like this."
