Chapter 1121 Li Bu Shang who has been “missing” for many days!
Nan Yan subconsciously grabbed the collar of his shirt.
"How could this happen?"
Where on earth did these people come from?!
Zhu Feng had not originally intended to tell her so soon. After all, the overall situation was still uncertain and the encirclement had just been formed. It was still undecided whether Zhu Xuan would surrender or fight. However, seeing Nan Yan's anxious look, he could not help himself.
He said: "It's nothing, it's just——"
But before he could finish his words, Nan Yan suddenly interrupted him and shouted, "No harm?!"
Upon hearing the name, Zhu Feng frowned.
Nan Yan leaned against the wall and looked down with surprise.
Although there was a flickering fire on the city wall, she could not see every person below because the wall was too high. However, when a horseman came out of the city gate with a gloomy murderous aura, which made the enemies in front of him avoid him, she could still see it at a glance.
In fact, one could tell at a glance that it was Li Bushang!
Li Bushang, who has been "missing" for many days!
He actually appeared here, and he appeared with such a group of people!
Nan Yan was extremely surprised, and a delighted expression appeared on her face. She looked down excitedly and looked at Zhu Feng happily. However, she saw that under the flickering firelight, Zhu Feng's face looked a little gloomy.
He said coldly: "You, saw him?"
There were so many people, and you saw him at first sight?
After all, seeing such a large army coming, Nan Yan was completely relieved that Hecheng was basically safe. What's more, she was even happier to see Li Bushang, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and she didn't pay any attention to Zhu Feng's tone.
She was so excited that she pointed down and said, "He's right there."
“…”
Zhu Feng's expression became even uglier.
"How do you see so clearly?"
Nan Yan looked at him with some confusion - what's the problem?
Although the light was dim, especially in winter, once the sun sets, the sky gets dark very quickly, and the earth is basically plunged into darkness at this time, but there are still lights shining on the top of the city. Moreover, the appearance of a horseman with such a powerful momentum forced the rebels to retreat again and again.
How could I not see it?
However, when she saw the almost gloomy expression on Zhu Feng's face, her heart skipped a beat.
The excitement I had originally felt was also suppressed a little.
Somehow, I feel a little guilty.
Zhu Feng glared at her and then turned away, but Wen Ye had already hurried up from below with two lieutenants.
"emperor."
"Um."
Zhu Fengtou was still furious, and even when he just said "hmm" to others, he was filled with anger. Wen Ye and the others immediately sensed it and hurriedly lowered their heads.
In fact, he was still a little frightened.
Originally, he had planned to rush out of the city to fight the rebels today, but suddenly, the guard at the other side of the city gate reported to him that another group of soldiers had entered the city.
So, the city gate on that side was immediately opened to let them in.
At this moment, although the rebels had not surrendered yet, they all knew that Hecheng was safe and the emperor's safety was resolved.
But for some reason, Zhu Feng's tone seemed to be even more angry than before.
Seeing how frightened they were, Zhu Feng coughed lightly.
"explain!"
Wen Ye hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the encirclement has been formed. Li Bushan sent a message. Should we force a surrender or—"
He didn't say the last word.
After all, Zhu Feng still took into consideration that Zhu Xuan was his brother. He even spared the life of Zhu Xuan, the Prince of Jing who had rebelled and killed the king on the border of Yue State. No one knew whether he would show mercy to this brother.
Nan Yan looked at him hurriedly.
Zhu Feng's breath sank, but he didn't hesitate: "Others who refuse to change will be killed without mercy."
"yes!"
"But Prince Ning—" He paused, then said, "I want him to live."
"Your humble servant obeys your orders!"
After saying that, Wen Ye hurriedly passed the order down.
Nan Yan looked up at Zhu Feng, but saw that the angry expression on his gloomy face gradually faded away, but something deep emerged from the depths of his eyes.
At this moment, the situation below the city wall was tense.
Seeing Li Bushang leading the army out of the city gate and surrounding them with the cavalry behind him, Zhu Xuan's face turned pale and the blood in his body seemed to freeze into ice at this moment.
He understood it all.
A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked up at the city wall.
Because it was too high and because of the backlight, he could only barely see the tall figure looking down at him. Even though he couldn't see clearly, he could feel the arrogance in his eyes, as if the God of War had come to the world, looking down on the world and despising the ants under his feet.
Zhu Xuan sneered, "I still underestimated you, I still underestimated you."
At this time, Li Bushang drew the long sword from his waist and pointed it at them.
In the darkness, the sword light flashed and pierced people's eyes.
"Traitor Zhu Xuan!"
He shouted in a deep voice: "Are you going to surrender or not?!"
Following his deep shout, the soldiers behind him immediately followed him and shouted loudly: "Are you going to surrender or not?"
Such a huge sound wave gave people a great sense of oppression. The rebels couldn't help but feel timid. The people standing in the front were even frightened by the momentum and took several steps back.
Zhai Yun, who was protecting Zhu Xuan, also showed a look of horror at this time.
He turned to look at Zhu Xuan: "Your Highness?"
“…”
Zhu Xuan was speechless.
Originally, his advantage over Zhu Feng was in manipulating people's hearts, while Zhu Feng's strength was in military tactics. But now, manipulating people's hearts was no longer effective, and they were completely surrounded in the war.
At this time——
He gritted his teeth, his face livid, but Zhai Yun refused to admit defeat and shouted, "Your Highness, we haven't lost yet! We still have Changqing City and the military camp not far away!"
Hearing what he said, Zhu Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Indeed, there are still people and horses in the military camp!
If we can gather them together, break out of the siege, and return to Changqing City - then at least there is still a way!
So Zhu Xuan hurriedly gathered everyone to retreat.
But at this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the tall figure on the city wall. He raised his hand and made a gesture towards the front.
Although it was pitch black, he was standing under the firelight on the top of the city wall, attracting everyone's attention. Just a small movement seemed to have the power of thunder.
What is he doing?
Just when Zhu Xuan felt vaguely uneasy, suddenly, another group of people came out from the birch forest where they had been hiding before. The cavalrymen who surrounded them pushed aside from both sides, raised torches, and illuminated those people.
As soon as he saw what was in front of him, Zhu Xuan's face turned pale instantly.
It was as if he couldn't believe his eyes.
