When dawn comes again.
Amir, trapped in the palace, did not sleep all night and his eyes were red.
In that towering palace, all the ministers had already arrived, because His Majesty died for his country yesterday. Before that, His Majesty appointed Prince Amir as regent, so of course his intention was to make Prince Amir the new king in the future.
Now is the time to establish a new king, because Huayue City has actually been captured by Daxia.
Amir stood on the high platform of the palace and looked at it himself, longing to climb up there one day earlier.
Now I stand on this high platform, but I feel anxious and uneasy.
The Chinese army surrounded the palace but did not attack, and the connection between the palace and the outside world was completely cut off. Even mobilizing the people to participate in the war was no longer possible.
"This king was born to be a trapped beast."
"Can you please tell me how to break the current situation?"
No one could answer, because there was no way to break this situation from the inside out. The only hope was that Prince Sangjiayi's army could break it from the outside.
But where is Prince Sangjiayi now?
According to the intelligence we received yesterday, his army should arrive early this morning.
It's already early morning, has he arrived?
…
…
Prince Sangyai has arrived.
The million-strong army spread out from the horizon like a huge black cloth, all the way to the bottom of the city wall.
He looked at the towering city wall. Last night he received news from scouts that the city had fallen. The guards on the wall had become the Great Xia Army, and his army had become the attacking force.
He did not bring any siege equipment because he did not think that Huayue City would fall.
He doesn't know yet that the king is dead. He must capture the city and rescue the trapped king!
"attack……!"
The black cloth was spread towards the base of the city wall.
Chen Po sat next to He Sandao and gave orders to the division commanders around him: "Wipe them all out!"
Fierce gunfire rang out again. The 60,000 soldiers defending the city wall were shooting madly from a high position. The sky at dawn seemed to be dyed red with blood, and holes gradually appeared on the black cloth.
But one million people is too large a number, and the enemies are still many, many.
An incense stick of time later, Chen Po looked towards the battlefield with a telescope. He saw a silver line on the farther horizon, gleaming in the morning sun.
Your Majesty, you've arrived so soon?
That’s right, Fu Xiaoguan marched all night, and the 300,000 troops he led arrived!
He looked at the battlefield, understood the current situation, and gave Guan Xiaoxi an order: "Send out all the air force, bomb them!"
One after another, the hot air balloons took off and flew over the top of Prince Sangjiayi's troops. One after another, bombs, incendiary bombs, and bombs were dropped down. Amid the deafening roar, the enemy was instantly stunned.
They raised their heads and saw things floating above their heads whose names they didn't know.
These millions of soldiers were all new recruits. All they felt at the moment was fear, so some of them began to flee. A moment later, the soldiers of the entire enemy camp followed suit and fled without thinking.
No matter how much Prince Sangjiayi roared, or how many heads his generals chopped off, it was of no avail.
Fu Xiaoguan put down the telescope and ordered Feng Xi and Wei Wubing: "Destroy them!"
The situation on the battlefield changed instantly. Two hundred thousand Daxia troops chased the enemy and slaughtered them crazily. This killing lasted for three full hours!
Prince Sangjiayi died in the battle, and only over 200,000 of the one million new troops escaped.
The battlefield was littered with corpses.
However, Fu Xiaoguan's brows were tightly knitted together, showing no joy at all - because he had been looking at the city wall through the telescope for an entire hour!
He saw Chen Po, the soldiers and generals, but he didn't see He Sandao or Tang Qianjun.
The city gates were opened, and he led his army into the capital of the Maurya Kingdom.
There was no joy on Chen Po's face, and his heart skipped a beat.
He followed Chen Po to the city wall and saw the corpse sitting on the ground.
His hands instantly clenched into fists. He squatted down and held He Sandao's shoulders. He held them like that for a long... a long time.
On the city wall, Guan Xiaoxi, Feng Xi, and Wei Wubing were already in tears.
That damn thing, he actually left!
How the hell can you leave?
We agreed to live together after retirement, and spend time hunting, drinking, and farming when we have nothing to do!
What the hell is this?
Your wife is still waiting for you to go back and have two more children!
Didn’t you say that we should cherish our lives in war?
You said that if you died, and your wife remarried, her new husband would spend the money you risked your life to earn, and even beat your children for no reason. Have you forgotten that?!
They took off their helmets, all of them.
Fu Xiaoguan closed his eyes and opened them again after a while. Only then did he believe that the small landlord from Linzi who called him boss was really dead.
He stood up and felt that all the strength in his body had been drained away at this moment.
He looked at the thick pile of corpses on the city wall. The soldiers of the Great Xia Army had been taken away, and the ground was covered with the bodies of the enemies.
Judging from their attire, some of them are regular soldiers, but most of them are poor people.
It was them who killed my beloved general!
You all, go to hell!
When the emperor is angry, the situation changes dramatically!
"I order everyone to massacre the city...!!!"
"Kill them all for me! I want every one of them buried with He Sandao, Tang Qianjun, and the ten thousand soldiers of the Great Xia Marine Corps!"
No one has ever seen Fu Xiaoguan so angry!
He shouted hysterically, using the word "I"!
Guan Xiaoxi waited for the commander to turn around and issue an order to his subordinates: "Massacre the city... Kill everyone in this city and bury them with Commander He!"
Four hundred thousand troops rushed madly into the streets and alleys of Huayue City.
Amidst the dense gunfire, Fu Xiaoguan, Guan Xiaoxi and others walked towards the palace, stepping on the corpses and blood on the ground.
"Go in, leave no one behind!"
The war reports outside had already reached the palace, and Amir slumped in the chair he had longed for for a long time.
He suddenly jumped up, "I surrender, I surrender...!"
Fu Xiaoguan, who was standing outside the palace, took the gun from Guan Xiaoxi. He raised his hand and heard a gunshot, "Bang!" The ministers inside were frightened and looked back. Amir was shot in the eyebrow and fell to the ground with a plop.
These ministers knelt down one after another. They thought that the people of Daxia would forgive them. After all, even if their country was destroyed, the people of Daxia still needed their help to govern this huge country.
However, all that awaited them were angry bullets.
Fu Xiaoguan took He Sandao's body from Chen Po's hands. Without even looking at the palace, he turned around and walked out.
"Everyone in the harem will be killed, leaving no one alive!"
There was no longer any anger in his words, but they were very cold, without any emotion.
"Sandao, I sacrificed so many lives to bury you... Actually, I wish you were still alive. We agreed to retire and become a landowner on the other side of the sea."
