Chapter 1129: A crushing defeat
Seeing that it was already dawn but Prince Linnan had not returned yet, Prince Fengyang and Prince Qingliao guessed that the talks must have failed.
In this case, there is no need for them to wait any longer.
Launch an attack first to teach that little emperor a lesson, and then when all the troops arrive at night, they will launch a general attack.
However, before they could take any action, countless arrows fell from the sky like rain.
The soldiers and horses near the city wall were unfortunately shot, and many were injured, screaming in pain.
King Qing Liao and King Feng Yang's faces changed drastically and they immediately ordered a retreat.
When they had withdrawn some distance, the city gate was opened and the cavalry rushed out.
They rushed towards the enemy like tigers and wolves, holding spears.
Behind them were thousands of infantrymen.
Looking around, all you see are densely packed heads, which makes you feel creepy.
Prince Fengyang and Prince Qingliao did not expect that the other side would dare to initiate an attack.
This was caught off guard.
But they quickly regained their composure and restored their formation as quickly as possible.
The two princes stood on two chariots respectively, with flags representing their sides inserted behind the chariots.
As the main coaches, they were protected in the center of the camp.
The two sides fought a desperate battle.
However, the enemy had too many people, and Prince Fengyang and Prince Qingliao were defeated and beaten back step by step.
Seeing his own numbers decreasing, King Qing Liao became anxious and angry, and yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Your emperor is a sinner who murdered his father and his lord. Do you really want to work for such a villain without moral ethics?!"
However, the next moment, an arrow came flying through the wind!
There was a cry of surprise from the guards beside him.
"My Lord, be careful!"
King Qing Liao almost had to roll and crawl to barely dodge the arrow.
When he got up and looked, he saw that the arrow had hit the flagpole exactly!
The arrow had such force that it penetrated the flagpole.
The flagpole shook twice, then made a crisp cracking sound and slowly fell to the side.
King Qing Liao was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his head in an instant.
He turned his head and looked in the direction where the arrow came from.
But the young emperor was riding on a horse, holding a longbow in his hand, and the bowstring was still trembling, indicating that he had just shot an arrow.
Luo Qinghan drew his bow and arrow again, aiming the arrow at King Qing Liao.
King Qing Liao had just personally experienced how powerful the opponent's archery skills were, and he was immediately frightened to death. He jumped off the chariot in a panic and hid behind his guards.
Seeing this, Prince Fengyang, who was not far away, secretly thought that it was not good.
The situation was already very unfavorable to them. At this time, the battle flag representing King Qing Liao was shot off, and King Qing Liao himself was frightened and abandoned his car and fled.
This was undoubtedly a huge blow to the morale of their entire army.
The facts were indeed as Prince Fengyang had expected.
The soldiers were still fighting desperately, trying their best to protect their commander, hoping to delay the time until night. As long as night came, their reinforcements would arrive, and then they would be able to turn the tide.
They were under tremendous pressure, and each of them was fighting with injuries.
King Qing Liao abandoned his chariot and fled at this time, which instantly extinguished the last bit of hope of the soldiers.
Even the head coach has fled, why are they still fighting?
The morale of King Qing Liao's side quickly dropped to the bottom.
Prince Fengyang was still trying his best to command his soldiers to fight.
However, one arm is not enough.
Their formation was completely disrupted by the enemy.
The imperial army went straight into the heart of the enemy's territory. King Fengyang, standing on the chariot, became a sitting duck and was soon beheaded by someone.
The death of the commander-in-chief threw the army into chaos.
What followed was a crushing defeat.
Prince Qing Liao, who tried to escape, was caught, tied up and brought before the emperor.
All the rebels dropped their weapons and sat on the ground in despair.
The war came to an end.
Luo Qinghan ordered his men to hang the bodies of King Fengyang and King Linnan above the city gate.
The generals led people to clean up the battlefield.
When it was getting dark, the enemy's 130,000 reinforcements arrived outside Shengjing City in a mighty force, only to see the bodies of their two commanders hanging on the city wall. They were all terrified.
Li Qingyan stood on top of the city wall and negotiated with the enemy.
He first described the crimes of the three princes in great detail, then highly praised the emperor's wisdom and bravery, and said that as long as they could lay down their arms and surrender, the emperor would be willing to spare their lives.
But if they insist on going down this path to the end, the emperor doesn't mind having a few more people.
The 130,000 soldiers looked up at the two corpses hanging on the city wall. Only a small number of people who were loyal to the two princes were extremely indignant and wanted to avenge their masters.
But most people have already faced the reality and lost their fighting spirit.
The head coach is dead, how can we fight this war?
People kept dropping their weapons and willing to surrender to the emperor.
There was a military general who was the confidant of Prince Fengyang and was extremely loyal to him.
He stared at the body of Prince Fengyang hanging on the city wall, his eyes red.
When he saw people around him constantly surrendering voluntarily, his hatred instantly reached its peak.
He suddenly drew the sword from his waist and slashed hard at one of the soldiers who rushed over!
"You spineless bastards, I'm going to kill you right now!"
The soldier was hit in the back unexpectedly, and fell down with a scream.
The general then went to attack other people.
He would rather kill all these people than watch them surrender.
However, before he could strike with the sword, he was shot through the heart by an arrow.
His eyes were red, his body swayed twice, and he fell off the horse, landing heavily on the ground.
Seeing this, the other few people who tried to stop their side from surrendering were frightened and gave up the idea of stopping the surrender.
The 130,000-strong army surrendered.
The rebellion jointly launched by King Qing Liao, King Lin Nan and King Feng Yang was completely declared a failure after lasting one day and one night.
This rebellion was known in history as the Rebellion of the Three Kings.
The Rebellion of the Three Kings became the reason for the emperor to decide to reduce the power of the princes.
The princes in various places were all in danger.
…
Xiao Xixi successfully found her three senior brothers based on the clues obtained from fortune-telling.
The four of them reunited and continued their journey day and night.
When they passed Jiangning County on the way, they happened to meet the 50,000-strong army led by Xiao Lingfeng.
Chu Jian was a person with poor sense of direction and had no idea where to go. If he wanted to go back to Shengjing, he could only follow others.
This time he was following the army led by Xiao Lingfeng. With so many people accompanying him, he said he felt very safe and didn't have to worry about getting lost at all.
What he didn't expect was that he would meet his senior brothers and sisters along the way.
Xiao Xixi was originally worried about how to convey the message to her junior brother, but now she doesn't have to worry about it anymore.
She took Chu Jian away directly.
The five brothers and sisters finally gathered together and continued to march towards Nanyue at full speed.
…
