Some people can't even hold weapons firmly, and face only fear and cowardice when facing the enemy.

Shen Changan went out to check, and after discussing with the generals, he asked the messenger to inform General Mighty to withdraw his troops and temporarily stop the siege.

After the mighty general withdrew his troops, he opened the curtain and walked into the tent, his eyes red with anger!

"Your Majesty," the mighty general said angrily, "King Mu is simply not a human being! Among the troops leaving the city, there were old men in their 50s and children as young as eleven or twelve!"

Shen Changan paused, "Tell me, who are they?"

The mighty general repeated his words, and Shen Changan slammed the table and asked: "Chu Aiqing, do you know what King Mu means?"

"This……"

The ministers present looked at each other, and they all saw the confusion in the other's eyes.

Shen Chang'an said: "I already know what the situation is like in Jingcheng. Nine out of ten houses are empty. All the young men and girls have disappeared. There are only old men and young children in the common people's homes."

"Crazy, crazy," the mighty general muttered, "King Mu is crazy!"

Shen Changan was noncommittal, "Tomorrow, the armies of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Mobei will arrive here. The three armies will besiege Jingcheng. Even if there are casualties, Jingcheng will be captured!"

"Yes!"

In Jingcheng, King Mu received the report from the secret guard, and a smile appeared on his lips, "Tell Mr. Zhang and others to come to my bedroom tomorrow night."

The next day, the Northern Wei Dynasty's [-]-strong army arrived first. The leader of the troops was a general from the Northern Wei Dynasty. Shen Chang'an was not familiar with it. General Weiwu received him. The Northern Wei general said that everything would be obeyed by the Jin Dynasty.

Mobei arrived next, and it was Tantaiji who led the troops. As soon as Tantaiji saw Shen Changan, his cousin's enthusiasm could not be stopped.

He greeted Shen Changan with greetings and greetings, referring to his cousin on the left and Chang'an on the right. If it weren't for the extraordinary love between Tantaiji and his wife, Gu Qichi would have thought that Tantaiji was poaching him!

After a few pleasantries, Shen Changan asked the three armies to besiege Jingcheng from three directions. On the side where the army was not surrounded, an ambush was set up on the road.

The war was about to break out, but Jingcheng opened the city gate, and many men and women in different clothes came out.

Shen Changan knew one of them, the woman he saw that night.

They were all ordinary people, but there were soldiers threatening them with knives behind them. In other words, they were using ordinary people as shields to threaten Shen Changan to retreat.

The mighty general looked at Shen Changan, "Your Majesty, please give the order! There are more people in Jingcheng. It's not worth it for dozens of people!"

Although he was also sad that he could not save all the people, this was the only way out. He gave up a small part in exchange for a large part of his life.

Shen Changan held a telescope to observe the opposite side, and then asked the mighty general to tell the archers to prepare, "Be sure to be accurate! Each person aims at one, and strives to miss nothing and kill with one shot!"

When the mighty general returned, Shen Changan had already asked people to flick the incense pills to the opposite side. She used her mental power to explode the incense pills. Immediately, a small burst of smoke dispersed. Both the soldiers and the people felt their legs and feet. soft.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

Countless arrows were fired at the soldiers, and most of them hit. Shen Changan waved his hand, and a group of soldiers holding shields hurried forward, carrying the people on their backs and running back.

What is puzzling is that from beginning to end, there was no second wave of attacks in Jingcheng.

When Shen Changan ordered the attack on Jingcheng, there was no movement at the city gate. The city gate was solid and should have been locked on the opposite side. The army rushed to the city gate and opened it with brute force, only to find that the city was empty. .

[Empty city plan? 】

[Uh, it doesn’t look like it. What kind of strategy is this? It’s not in the book! 】No matter what the plan is, as long as King Mu is caught, all the conspiracies and tricks will come to nothing. Shen Changan ordered a team to find the surviving people in the city, and she took people to King Mu's mansion.

At this time, Prince Mu's palace was in a panic. King Mu asked several generals who were with him in Jingcheng to come to his dormitory because his dormitory had a direct passage to the outside of the city.

But now, the passage is blocked!

King Mu was letting his men work hard to dig through the secret passage, but the passage was filled not with ordinary soil, but with stones, hard stones.

The difficulty coefficient skyrockets!

King Mu's eyes were gloomy. The reason why he simply arranged the defense at the city gate was to allow Shen Changan and others to break through easily. When they came in, they were one step away from catching him. You can imagine the depression in his heart.

But now, it was King Mu who was depressed, because his subordinates reported that Shen Changan was leading people here.

The passage could not be cleared for a while. King Mu gritted his teeth and prepared to find a place to avoid the limelight, so he hurriedly left with several generals.

What he didn't know was that a little Gu insect crawled onto him quietly, like a tracking device, guiding Shen Changan to find them.

It is said that there are three caves for cunning rabbits. Although King Mu did not prepare another secret passage, there were many hiding places. For safety, he also sent people to various hiding places, and he went to a place where he could be easily discovered.

After all, the most dangerous place is the safest.

But he didn't expect that a Gu insect would reveal his position at all times. Only when Shen Changan led people to surround King Mu's hiding place did King Mu react.

There's a mole in their team!

Zi Gu behind King Mu yawned, no, it was an internal insect.

"Come here, take down King Mu!"

Shen Changan directly asked people to capture King Mu, and his cronies were also captured.

King Mu sneered: "I advise you to let me go, otherwise..."

"Crack--"

Shen Changan raised the knife and dropped it, and King Mu's head fell to the ground.

He was dead and couldn't believe it. Shen Changan didn't even wait for him to finish his words before he killed him!
Shen Changan had no expression on his face and had King Mu's head hung at the city gate for public display, while his body was fed to wild dogs.

She knew what King Mu was going to say. It was just that he sent people to Chang'an City to assassinate various princes and princesses, but he failed, so she didn't listen to King Mu's nonsense!
The reconstruction of Jingcheng is the top priority.

The casualties cannot be compensated, but at least the living people have to continue to live. The woman is still very lucky. Her husband-in-law is still alive. After the family of three reunited, they cherished it very much.

But there are more cries and howls in Jingcheng, crying for children, husbands and sons-in-law, parents... the cries and howls are endless.

This cannot be relieved in a day or two. Shen Changan can only rebuild their home for them, but the trauma in his heart still needs time to heal.

After everything was arranged, Shen Changan was about to return to the court, the Northern Wei army returned to the Northern Wei Dynasty, and Tantai Ji led the army back to Chang'an City with Shen Changan.

The generals who followed Shen Changan repeatedly expressed their disapproval tactfully, but Shen Changan pretended not to understand what they meant. There was still a tough battle to be fought in Chang'an City, and it would be much better for Tantaiji to step forward than for her, the emperor, to step forward.

In the imperial palace of Chang'an City, Shen Junheng was angrily losing his temper in the Jinluan Palace.
