Chapter 177 Prince Yin’s Cruel Plan



"call out--"

The arrow flew away, and Xiao Xuan drew his bow and arrow again, shooting in the direction of Qu Lingxian.

When Qu Lingxian sensed the danger behind him, he turned around and saw the sharp arrow coming straight at him, his pupils dilated slightly.

A huge force came over him, causing him to stagger twice.

After watching the general block the arrow with his sword, Qu Lingxian breathed a sigh of relief. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a cold light coming towards him out of the corner of his eye. His eyes widened again and his body moved, trying to dodge it.

Although he moved quickly, the arrow was even faster than him. Qu Lingxian looked down at the sharp arrow in his chest. In an instant, severe pain spread throughout his body, causing him to stagger twice.

Qu Lingxian stretched out his hand to grasp the arrow shaft, trying to pull it out. He knew better than anyone that being hit by the arrow at this moment would be fatal.

But before he could pull out the arrow, a loud bang was heard, and the city wall under his feet was attacked. The wall broke into pieces and shook continuously, causing him to stagger. There was no way he could stand firmly on the shaking wall.

not good!

Qu Lingxian felt a chill in his heart.

The other party was coming for him.

Qu Lingxian looked straight ahead, watching Daliang loading gunpowder and Xiao Xuan drawing the bow and shooting arrows.

The other party's target is him.

After Qu Lingxian understood, his face turned pale. He immediately said to the general of Zhao State, "Take your people and leave first."

General Zhao turned around and said, "Priest, why don't you evacuate with us?"

"It's useless. The other side won't let me go. You take them away first. When the first batch of sparks is completed, we will not be afraid of Daliang." www.jiangnanxs.com Jiangnan Literature Network

"Priest!" General Zhao immediately understood Qu Lingxian's intention. He smiled innocently and said, "How can a great general like me be a deserter at this time? Since the first batch of sparks takes time, we can't leave. Besides, how can we fight this battle without a priest? If we have to retreat, you should retreat first."

“…”

Qu Lingxian sighed, and seeing that she couldn't explain herself clearly, she had to take out a dagger and cut off the arrow in her chest.

In this battle, everyone will survive, but he is the only one who will not be let go by the other side.

In this case, we can only fight to the death.

However, the two men underestimated the power of artillery. Under the suppression of artillery, all their means were useless.

Crushed in all directions.

After facing the danger of artillery, Qu Lingxian couldn't help but worry, can they really win the battle by creating the Spark?

This is simply beyond human control.

If he dies, will there be anyone in Zhao who can stop Daliang?

Looking at the thousands of arrows and artillery fire, Qu Lingxian, who had no strength left, sighed, stood there and closed her eyes.

When Xiao Xuan saw that Qu Lingxian was dead, the corners of his mouth curved up. With Qu Lingxian's death, the biggest threat to Zhao State was removed, and no one would be able to figure out what their Daliang controlled.

The rest is easy.

Xiao Xuan wrote a letter to Taoist Li, and then continued to lead his troops forward. He wanted to capture several cities before Zhaoguo could react.

As the news of Wuchang City's fall and Qu Lingxian's death spread to the capital, the Zhao Kingdom's court was instantly thrown into chaos. No one had expected that Daliang's speed would be so fast that they could capture Wuchang City in just a few days. This had never happened before.

What they didn't expect was that Qu Lingxian would die in Wuchang City. Once Qu Lingxian died, who could compete with Taoist Li?

Everyone was terrified.

Some people even suffered a mental breakdown because of this and proposed surrendering to Daliang in the court, wanting to make peace with Daliang. There were actually quite a few people like this.

The fall of Wuchang City finally broke the courage in their hearts.

Prince Yin watched them quarrelling endlessly, and many people even proposed surrendering. He kept smiling, and said coldly, "Seek peace...surrender..."

"Are you going to betray your ancestors?"

"Come here, drag these disloyal, unrighteous and unfilial people out and execute them."

"Your Majesty, spare my life—"

These officials had not expected that they would lose their heads just for talking about surrender and seeking peace.

As long as they ask for peace, they can still survive. As long as the green mountains remain, there is no fear of running out of firewood.

Knowing what these officials were thinking, Crown Prince Yin sneered and said, "Everyone, if we capture Yuzhou City today and Daliang asks for peace, what do you think?"

"The relationship between the two countries is not dead or alive. How can it be erased by a request for peace? Asking for peace today is nothing more than kneeling down to be humiliated by the other side again. Do you want history books to record this incident in bold and colorful words?"

"No," the pro-war officials roared. The blood feud between them and Daliang could not be erased by a request for peace. If Yuzhou City was broken today and Daliang asked for peace, they would definitely exaggerate the matter in history books to let people in later generations know the lowliness of Daliang.

"I would rather die standing than live on my knees!"

"good!"

Prince Yin looked at the officials below with satisfaction. They would rather die heroically than live in disgrace.

"Send Priest Liu here."

As Prince Yin issued one order after another, the entire country of Da Zhao prepared for war, and everyone was ready to go to the battlefield.

First, the young and strong men will take the field. After the young and strong men die, the old soldiers will take the field. If the old soldiers die, the children under twelve years old will take the field.

Finally, even women had to go to the battlefield. The battle was fought vigorously. Until the end, even though Zhaoguo's spark was produced to stop Daliang's army, it could not last for a few days.

Just as Daliang was about to attack the capital of Zhaoguo, Prince Yin ordered that all the collected hemp be piled under the city wall, waiting to be ignited as soon as the Liang army arrived.

If you smoke hemp too much, it will make you crazy. He discovered this by accident. Even if he dies, he wants to give Daliang a big gift before he dies.

Xiao Xuan looked at the city wall in the distance, recalling all the battles along the way. He also understood the bloodiness of the Zhao army. Seeing that there was no one on the city wall, he was confused but did not think much about it. He just thought that the other side was afraid.

Now he is only separated from Emperor Zhao by a city wall, and the blood feud between the two countries will end in his hands. Not to mention him, even an old general who has fought in Daliang for many years would be so excited that he would shed tears when standing at the foot of the Zhao imperial city.

Xiao Xuan was also extremely excited. He looked at the imperial city in the distance, gave an order, and began to attack the city.

As he gave the order to attack the city, all the hemp scattered around the capital city began to burn, and thick smoke rose from many places, forming a dark cloud that covered the sky above the capital city.

When Xiao Xuan saw this scene, he was a little hesitant, but the people guarding on the city wall did not give him any chance.

As the black bullets were thrown down by Dazhao, Xiao Xuan waved his hand and aimed the cannons at the city wall, and loud booming noises continued to sound.

Only after facing the artillery head-on did the people of Zhao understand why the city in front of them was defeated so quickly.

The black muzzle of the cannon was pointed at them, and everyone was terrified. Everyone's legs were trembling, but no one escaped.

An hour later, the battle was over.

Xiao Xuan looked at the destroyed building in front of him and was very excited. He led his men into it and looked at the thick smoke covering it.

To the people around him, he said, "Cover your mouth and nose."

Although I don’t know what the Zhao people are burning, anything that can be used against them is definitely not a good thing.

When Xiao Xuan led his men to the Zhaoguo Palace, they saw flames rising into the sky, and in the tall building, there seemed to be a human figure.

Although he couldn't see clearly who it was, Xiao Xuan knew that the man was the current Emperor Zhao, the former Crown Prince Yin.

The other party actually set himself on fire.

Think about Prince Yin, who ordered the Zhao army to fight them to the last moment and never surrender. Such a heroic figure would not die under their swords.

Watching the collapsed building and the figure inside it turned to ashes, Xiao Xuan led people to search in the Zhaoguo Palace, but did not find Prince Yin, and was sure that he had really died in the fire.

This made Xiao Xuan very excited, but when he was about to lead his troops to withdraw, he saw his soldiers making trouble everywhere. Looking at the blood-red scene in front of him, his heart beat rapidly and a bloodthirsty feeling surged up.

This feeling was about to overwhelm his rationality, and Xiao Xuan instantly realized that they had fallen into a trap.

Thinking of the thick smoke rising from Zhao State, he immediately ordered people to tie up those who were causing chaos and take them away from the capital of Zhao State.

After the evacuation, the camp was right in front of him. He looked at the figures that appeared in front of the tent, Taoist Priest Li and His Majesty. No, Taoist Priest and His Majesty were far outside Yuzhou City, how could they be in front of him.

After a moment, the figure of the retired emperor walked out from behind Taoist Li and His Majesty and came in front of him. He listened to the retired emperor's praise for him and looked at the smile on the retired emperor's face.

Xiao Xuan stabbed himself and blood gushed out. The pain made his mind clear and the scene in front of him disappeared. The figures of the Supreme Emperor, Taoist Li and His Majesty all disappeared. Standing in front of him was the military doctor who stayed in the tent, asking about his condition.

Xiao Xuan broke out in a cold sweat on his back and looked in the direction of Zhaoguo Imperial City with fear.

This must have been done by Emperor Zhao.

Xiao Xuan looked at the army he led. Many people had already started to have hallucinations, and many had even gone insane.

This strange sight must be caused by poisoning.

Fortunately, not everyone on this trip entered the Zhaoguo Imperial City.

Xiao Xuan asked a military doctor to go and check on them, and after instructing someone to leave someone to look after them, he immediately returned to his tent and informed Li Lezhi of what they had encountered.

Li Le only received the letter from the other party half a month has passed. Looking at the description in the letter, he doubted whether what Xiao Xuan and the others encountered was what he thought. This kind of description could cause hallucinations and make people go crazy. Only drugs could do that.

There is such a thing in Zhao State?

Li Le just suspected that he was wrong. No matter what the thing that was burning in Zhao State that day was, his heart tightened after getting the answer of hemp. He remembered hemp correctly, it was marijuana.

This kind of thing is usually used as medicine. It is not only found in Dazhao, but also in Daliang. However, Prince Yin actually found another harmful use for it and used it as a killer at the last moment.

hiss……

Prince Yin is a very scheming person.

Li Le suspected that Prince Yin must have known the dangers of hemp, so he only used it in the last battle. The other party had already planned to perish together with him.

Li Le couldn't even imagine how much hemp Prince Yin had used in the final battle.

After this attack, the army attacking Dazhao was either killed or seriously injured.

What a cruel plan.

It just so happened that Xiao Xuan and others had already fallen into the trap. Under such circumstances, no one could resist the temptation to destroy Zhao State, and Prince Yin also had a firm grasp on the people's hearts.

But now, the other party has left a huge basket for him!

Destroy it!

After a moment of silence, Li Le wanted to beat Prince Yin to death with one punch. Such a scourge was truly hateful.

Letting so many people become addicted to drugs has destroyed so many families and ruined so many people's futures.

It is a heinous crime!!!

Li Le just started to worry about what he should do to solve the drug addiction of Xiao Xuan and others.

"call out--"

The arrow flew away, and Xiao Xuan drew his bow and arrow again, shooting in the direction of Qu Lingxian.

When Qu Lingxian sensed the danger behind him, he turned around and saw the sharp arrow coming straight at him, his pupils dilated slightly.
