The Noble Empress

The year Yan Xingchuan successfully rebelled, he made his cousin empress, and even promised never to establish another empress in this life before her death.

Cui Si was his principal wife, wh...

Chapter 112 Why don’t you lay down your weapons and surrender!

There was chaos in the inner city, and the fighting at the city gate was still going on. In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.

Yan Xingchuan was pressing Jiang Shao to fight. Jiang Shao probably knew that he could not win, so he focused on resisting and delaying. As long as he did not lose and held the city gate, he would win.

Yan Xingchuan couldn't do anything to him for the time being.

However, this time Yan Xingchuan remembered that saving his life was the most important thing, so he was not in a hurry to kill Jiang Shao.

It's the same if you take your time and beat him until he dies.

Chen Mo and Xu Dazhi also have opponents to fight against.

If you can beat them, beat them. If you can’t, hold them back.

However, Wu Tu, the killing god who suddenly appeared, couldn't find an opponent for a while, and used a long sword to cut a bloody path for the Northern Yan army.

The sound of killing at the city gate was deafening. Countless people fell in a pool of blood, and countless more people took their place. Soon, the ground was covered with dead bodies.

But more and more Northern Yan soldiers climbed up the ladders and jumped onto the city walls, and the situation began to tilt to one side.

Jiang Shao listened to the sound of the battering ram hitting the city gate, his face becoming increasingly gloomy, and the joints of his hand holding the Yellow Dragon Sword were tense and prominent.

This can't go on any longer.

If he continues, Chongshan City will be destroyed and he will surely die at the hands of Yan Xingchuan.

"You are quite capable. You found someone from Medicine King Valley to detoxify me, and you also recruited a powerful general. The Northern Yan army is now even more powerful."

The butcher Wu Tu is really fierce.

There are three reasons why Chongshan City was at a disadvantage in today's battle at the city gate.

First, he had a broken arm and was no match for Yan Xingchuan.

Secondly, there was chaos in the city. Chongshan City had become a sea of ​​fire. The mountain advantages that Chongshan City relied on became a cage that trapped them. The morale of the army was in chaos, and countless people fled.

Third, the appearance of Wu Tu, the god of death, and the fact that there was no one in the court who could fight him allowed him to go on a killing spree and carve out a bloody path.

"God is fair. This is a great blessing for Northern Yan and a great blessing for us."

Yan Xingchuan believed that God might be fair. He had spent his entire life fighting and had a very hard life, so he was given a chance to start over.

But he betrayed Cui Si, so they were no longer destined to be husband and wife in this life.

"Yan Xingchuan." His long sword blocked the incoming spear. Jiang Shao asked him, "Do you remember what I told you last time?"

"Lin Qingning." Jiang Shao mentioned Lin Qingning again, and then said, "Let the Northern Yan army retreat, and I will tell you where Lin Qingning is."

Yan Xingchuan raised his hand and swept his spear.

"Why use empty words and lies to confuse people's minds? I originally thought you would still have some dignity, at least fight an upright battle on the battlefield. I never thought that when you can't win, the only thing left is your despicable behavior."

So what if he told him where Lin Qingning was? Why did he need Jiang Shao to tell him?

"Jiang Shao, you narrowly escaped death last time, but today you can forget about leaving. Stay and be buried with me at Chongshan Pass."

Jiang Shao's face changed, and then he swept his long sleeves, and a cloud of dust came out of his sleeves.

Yan Xingchuan quickly retreated to avoid it. Jiang Shao took this opportunity to escape, turned around and jumped down from the city wall.

He was caught by the guards below.

Jiang Shao looked back and saw that Yan Xingchuan did not jump down after him. His face was cold and he gritted his teeth.

Looking up, I saw kerosene falling from the sky again, and another rain of rockets fired into the city. The fire in the city was burning fiercely, and the pungent smoke hit my face.

"How did they get up there?"

How was the natural barrier of Chongshan City broken?

"I don't know, maybe he climbed up?"

"How did they climb up there? Why is there no news at all?" Jiang Shao's breathing was heaving, and he was furious.

Lost, lost.

If the Northern Yan army can occupy the cliff mountains, then Chongshan City will be right under their noses.

They could shoot arrows if they wanted to, and burn things if they wanted to, but they couldn't do anything to the other side.

"Can you shoot him down?"

"My lord, the mountains are too high for arrows to reach." The deputy general was worried. "My lord, Chongshan City is about to be lost."

At this time, Chongshan City was like a birdcage that trapped them. Fortunately, there was an open cage door for them to leave.

Since the Northern Yan army can go up to the top of the cliff mountain range, it will be much easier to come down from the other side.

If the Northern Yan army came down from the other side of the mountains and blocked the cage entrance, they would probably be trapped and killed in Chongshan City, and would be strangled to death by the Northern Yan army.

Perhaps it was too urgent and the Northern Yan army could not get so many people to block the exit, or they were worried that they could not win the battle and would die in vain if they sent people, so the Northern Yan army left the cage mouth open.

Today, the Northern Yan army only wants Chongshan City and allows them to escape.

At this time, if they did not abandon the city and leave, even if they could defend the city gate, when the Northern Yan army came to attack next time, they might be attacked from both front and back by the Northern Yan army.

Chongshan City can no longer be defended.

Unless they can also climb up the cliffs and mountains, which is an eternal problem, otherwise, Chongshan Pass will no longer be a military fortress.

If we stay, all the advantages we relied on will become disadvantages, and everyone will die here.

Jiang Shao naturally understood the situation and gritted his teeth:

"Gather all those who can walk, let's go."

Jiang Shao acted decisively and immediately abandoned the city and fled.

Yan Xingchuan and others seized the city gate, cut down the battle flag, and opened the city gate to let the army in.

"Jiang Shao has fled, Chongshan City is doomed, why don't you lay down your weapons and surrender!"

"Drop your weapons and surrender!"

"Those who surrender will not be killed!"

......

June 18th is the Great Heat.

The Northern Yan army attacked from Chongshan Pass for three hours. Jiang Shao led his army to abandon the city and flee, and the remaining soldiers surrendered. The Northern Yan army captured the Chongshan City fortress in one fell swoop.

The sun was setting in the west, and a blood-red sunset hung in the sky. Yan Xingchuan and others had already cleared Chongshan City and sent people to invite Shangguan Tong, Cui Si and others to enter Chongshan City.

Cui Si went to the foot of the cliff to pick up Jiang Cinian and Cui Jing.

Jiang Cinian was good at martial arts, and his lightness skills were even better. Although he would rather stay by Cui Si's side to protect her, she was in the rear, and staying with Shangguan Tong would ensure her safety. After much deliberation, he decided to go up to the Cliff Mountains.

There are so many people up there, and it's a day like the hottest day of the year, so there must be a doctor accompanying them.

As for Cui Jing, he was crazy about wanting to achieve merit.

He didn't know martial arts, so he couldn't follow Yan Xingchuan into Chongshan City. There was no need for him to fight unless the two armies were fighting each other. With Shangguan Tong in the rear, he was also not needed. After much thought, he went to the Juebi Mountains to command the battle.

Finally it has some effect.

When Cui Jing stepped down from the falling basket and landed on the ground, his legs were still a little weak.

Cui Si reached out and helped him up: "Third brother, how are you?"

"Not bad." Cui Jing still had a smile on his face, "A'si, this is a victory."

"Yes, we won." Cui Si also laughed, "Chongshan Pass is ours. From now on, we can attack Yunzhou, Miaozhou, and Laizhou, or we can defend Chongshan Pass."

"Okay, okay." Cui Jing was even happier. "Let's go into Chongshan City and take a look!"
