Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Chapter 65: Shooting the Invading Northern Merchant Cavalry

Cao Zhu's soldiers heard the King of Zhenbei roar that anyone who disobeyed his orders would be exterminated along with his entire clan.

Large numbers of soldiers laid down their weapons, one after another, and then in batches.

Although they were loyal to Cao Zhu, the current situation was not something these soldiers could resist. Besides, they were not facing an enemy, but their compatriots.

But there are still some soldiers who did not lay down their weapons.

"Soldiers who put down their weapons, step out! Go to the open space on the left, and I will not kill you!"

"For those soldiers who have not laid down their weapons, I will give you one more chance to reconsider. If you remain stubborn, then your only fate will be death."

"Don't you even look at how many of your people are left? You only have less than 10,000 people left!"

"There are less than 10,000 of you left. Can you resist?"

"My words are useless, right? Then what about the Emperor Dafeng?"

Of course Hongxuan would not really start a war with these soldiers.

Killing each other is not a wise thing for a ruler to do.

Among these stubborn soldiers, although they did not obey the orders of the King of Zhenbei,

Hongxuan's orders were useless, but although these soldiers were loyal to Dafeng, they still obeyed the orders of Dafeng Emperor Hongjing.

Another group of soldiers laid down their weapons.

They reluctantly went to the open space on the left.

There are less than two thousand people left.

Hongxuan knew that these two thousand men were Cao Zhu's death squad. Only his death squad would dare to disobey the order of the Emperor of Dafeng.

And only obey Cao Zhu's orders,

Hong Xuan laughed and said, "Haha! General Jianwei Cao Zhu, are you ready to take these soldiers of Dafeng Kingdom to die?"

"Your sin! I report to my father, your children, Imperial Concubine Cao, and your grandson, Hongxiong, are they still alive?"

Cao Zhu now looked as pale as death, he knew that the situation was hopeless.

From the moment Murong Zhou appeared, he had no hope of fighting against Hong Xuan.

Cao Zhu said helplessly:

"All soldiers, listen up! Lay down your weapons! Go to the open space on the left."

The remaining two thousand death warriors also laid down their weapons and went to the open space on the left.

Hongxuan raised the corner of his mouth:

"Cao Zhu! You and your son Cao Wenxiu are so bold that you dare to defy this king!"

"Qilin Guards! Tie up General Dingguo Cao Wenxiu and General Jianwei Cao Hong."

"Yes!"

The Qilin Guards quickly tied up General Jianwei and General Dingguo.

There was no way either of them could resist.

"Hongxuan! You want to kill me? I won't let you go even if I become a ghost."

Cao Wenxiu kept roaring:

He knew he was going to die.

But Hong Xuan smiled and said, "Haha! Who said that I want to kill you?

"This king doesn't even bother to kill you!"

Cao Wenxiu sneered:

"If Murong Zhou hadn't arrived in time, if you hadn't brought up the emperor, would you have succeeded so easily?"

"You are only good at talking. Ah! This general does not accept this! This general does not accept this!"

Hongxuan sneered:

"Humph! You don't accept it, right? If General Murong hadn't come here, you and these soldiers would have been slaughtered by me long ago."

"You two should be grateful that General Murong saved your lives!"

Obviously, Cao Wenxiu and Cao Zhu were not convinced at all.

They just felt that Hongxuan relied on his real ability to convince them.

"Snapped!"

Qilin Guard slapped Cao Wenxiu directly.

"If you disrespect the King of Zhenbei again, I will kill you!"

Cao Wenxiu never thought that a small soldier could be rude to him.

But he can't do anything now.

At this moment, he was like a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

Hongxuan naturally didn't bother to explain to them.

He is a prisoner anyway. What's the point in explaining to this dying man?

Just then, a soldier came running over on a war horse.

"General, something terrible has happened! Northern Merchants' soldiers have climbed onto the city wall!"

"what!"

"Murong Zhou was shocked! Oh no, we have withdrawn all our troops and now they are empty.

The new ruler of Beishang will certainly follow Lai Yunyi's strategy and attack the city now."

Cao Wenxiu laughed loudly: "Hahaha! Hongxuan, did you think that everything would be fine if you surrendered to us? Now it's all right! Everyone will die! Everyone will die hahaha!"

Cao Wenxiu laughed crazily.

Hongxuan curled the corners of his mouth and completely ignored the dying man.

"All soldiers, listen up! Kill the Northern Shang Kingdom's cavalry!"

All the soldiers followed King Zhenbei.

The Qilin Guard also brought Cao Wenxiu and Cao Zhu with them.

When Hongxuan and Murong Zhou arrived.

A large number of Beishang soldiers have already jumped onto the city.

After seeing this, Cao Wenxiu felt that the situation was hopeless: "It's all your fault, Hongxuan. If you had stayed in Zhenbei Palace, how could this situation happen?"

Even Cao Zhu scolded:

"Hurry up and let me go. I'll be in charge here, otherwise it will be too late!"

"This Zhenbei King hasn't even fully grown his hair yet, how can he understand what command is?"

His subordinates and soldiers even wanted to go forward and untie Cao Zhu and Cao Wenxiu.

"Kill these soldiers who are trying to untie the ropes!"

Are you kidding me? Now that Cao Zhu and Cao Wenxiu have been arrested, how could Hongxuan let his family go? This is unrealistic.

But Murong Zhou also frowned when he saw this scene.

"Your Highness, if those cavalrymen from the Northern Kingdom really capture the city, then we will be in danger. It is better to release General Cao Zhu. After all, he is very good at commanding battles!"

This is not the time to take personal revenge.

Everything should be based on the overall situation.

"Don't worry, General Murong Zhou, just watch and see how the Northern King will deal with the Northern Merchants' cavalry!"

"First Legion, listen up! Shoot the invading Northern Merchant Cavalry!"

The soldiers of the First Legion had already prepared their crossbows.

Just waiting for the order from King Zhenbei.

At the order of King Zhenbei, tens of thousands of crossbows fired arrows at the same time, and all the Beishang soldiers who climbed up the city wall were shot to death.

The soldiers brought by Murong Zhou and Murong Zhu were all stunned.

Cao Zhu and Cao Wenxiu were even more stunned. They felt a chill down their spines. They had never seen a military crossbow arrow with such powerful power.

The soldiers who had followed Cao Zhu had also come to their senses. It was not that Hong Xuan did not want to fight with them, but that he did not want to fight and slaughter the soldiers of Da Feng.

If a war really breaks out, none of these soldiers will survive.

"Just now, Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan could have shot us directly!"

"If General Murong Zhou hadn't arrived in time, we would have been dead by now!"

They saw the crossbow arrows directly penetrate the extremely strong defensive shields. What a penetrating power.

Just a few breaths.

All the Northern Wei soldiers who climbed up from the bottom of the city were dealt with by Hongxuan.

The imperial master of Beishang State was directing the battle outside the city.
