Gao Wu Da Xia: The fox demon lady at the beginning

Chapter 265
Sun Da was supposed to have a bright future, but now he was sentenced to death.

Human destiny is really unpredictable.

If a person cannot stick to his original intention, he will go further and further down the wrong path.

Han Chufan looked at the senior officials in the military and political circles of Northwest Military Town and said slowly: "I will lead you to move forward to create a beautiful world.

If someone can't stick to his original intention and falls behind, I don't have time to wait for him.

This is a big era, and I hope you can all follow me to the end. "

After Han Chufan finished speaking, he left directly.

A group of senior officials stood there, thinking about what Han Chufan said.

"Oh, let's go. The prince feels very sad too. Old Sun is really confused this time." The fat man sighed and said.

He and Sun Da had the best relationship. They used to quarrel and fight a lot.

"Let's go, everyone should take a lesson and don't make such a mistake again."

After the senior officials left, the staff of the Justice Bureau breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just now our director was too fierce and didn't give the big guys any face. I was shocked."

"Yes, our Director Yu is really tough."

"This is really a big case. A deputy minister and a director were tried and sentenced to death. Our Justice Bureau will become famous."

"Today is really like a dream. You must abide by the law in the future. If you break the law, even senior officials at the ministerial level will judge you according to the law."

"Yeah yeah."

The news that Sun Da and Zhang Fang were sentenced to death for corruption spread throughout Ping An City.

The people were also shocked and admired King Zhenbei's fair law enforcement.

This is their King of Zhenbei, this is their Northwest Army Town, there is really fairness here.

Everyone is equal, even if a high-ranking official breaks the law, he will be punished by law.

The common people have more trust in the officials of the Northwestern Army Town.

Han Chufan returned home and lay on the chair, very tired.

Wei Linger squeezed his shoulders obediently.

"Ling'er, the higher you stand, the lonelier you feel, and there will be fewer and fewer people around you."

Han Chufan couldn't bear to sentence Sun Da and his wife to death, but he had to do it, otherwise the faith he had been building would collapse.

"Your Majesty, don't think so much. There will be many people accompanying you, and I will always be with you." Ling'er said softly.

"You can't always be my maid, then you won't be an old girl anymore? If you find a suitable man, just marry him. I will prepare a generous dowry for you."

Han Chufan felt better and said with a smile.

"No, I want to stay with the prince forever. This is my home." Wei Linger said stubbornly.

"You, there's really nothing I can do about you." Han Chufan shook his head helplessly.

Summer in the seventh year of the Daxia calendar, 850.

After Pang Zhenxi stabilized Yuzhou and Xiangzhou, he led an army of 30 to begin the Northern Expedition.

Kejiu also occupies most of the towns in Caizhou, and has a tendency to unify Caizhou.

Pang Zhenxi's 30-strong army was invincible, attacking cities and plundering villages all the way.

Coupled with the slogan of land equalization, the people of Daxia turned against each other one after another to welcome the arrival of the Tian Suppressing Army.

The demon clan in the south took advantage of the war in the Great Xia to invade Yingzhou again and fought several battles near the Demon Slaying City.

The Wu clan is also starting to make moves in the northeast.

Daxia has reached the most dangerous situation, and there are signs of national subjugation.

Han Chufan didn't pay much attention to the changes in the outside world and steadily developed his own strength.

Another railway was built from Wanren City to Diyue City. Diyue City used to be the westernmost city in the western territory of Dayuan.

With this railway, the entire northern Xinjiang and Ping'an City are connected.

After the Northwest Army conducted two rounds of recruitment, the number of troops increased to 15, and its weapons and equipment also took on a new look.

Armor, muskets and artillery made of the latest steel materials are more durable.

Pang Zhenxi captured Zhuozhou a month later, already occupying a quarter of Daxia's land, and pointed his sword at the imperial capital.

Emperor Yingxuan sat on the chair dejectedly. He did not expect that Daxia, which had been a country for more than 800 years, would be in the current situation.

"Why did my people take the initiative to open the city gate and welcome those rebels into the city?" Emperor Yingxuan roared.

He couldn't figure out why so many people betrayed him and welcomed the rebels into the city.

Zong Bao knelt on the ground, not daring to say anything.

Zong Bao actually knew very well that these corrupt officials in Daxia had caused the court to lose the support of the people.

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much." Zong Bao persuaded.

"Those rebels are about to attack the imperial capital, how can you not worry me?

This is the foundation that the ancestors finally created. If the imperial capital is lost, how can I go to see my ancestors? "Emperor Yingxuan said in frustration.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let the King of Zhenbei send troops to suppress the thieves?" Zong Bao said tremblingly.

In Daxia today, the only one who can turn the tide is Zhenbei King Han Chufan.

Emperor Yingxuan shook his head, "Han Chufan is more terrifying than a rebel."

Han Chufan's prestige in the hearts of the people is too high. Once he leads troops into the imperial capital, I am afraid that the entire Great Xia will change its master.

Even if Han Chufan has no intention of rebellion, what about his subordinates?
The addition of yellow robes has not happened before in history.

Emperor Yingxuan didn't dare to gamble because he couldn't afford to lose.

Compared to Han Chufan, Emperor Yingxuan believed that the rebels were easier to deal with.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The rebels have captured Laohu Pass." A young eunuch ran in in a panic and reported.

"What?" Emperor Yingxuan almost fainted after hearing the news.

Zong Bao quickly stepped forward to support him.

Laohu Pass is the barrier of the Imperial Capital. After Laohu Pass is breached, the Imperial Capital will have no dangerous pass to defend.

"Is Zhou Zhong at Laohu Pass a waste? In just a few days, Laohu Pass was breached by rebels."

"Your Majesty, now we must organize the defense of the imperial capital, and we must also call on the soldiers from all states in the world to come to serve the king." Zong Bao said anxiously.

"Yes, yes, hurry up and summon the ministers to the main hall." Emperor Yingxuan's position has begun to become chaotic.

After the rebels captured Laohu Pass, they would soon reach the imperial capital.

In the main hall, the faces of the ministers were full of gloom.

They already knew the news that the rebels had captured Laohu Pass.

I heard that those rebels had an army of 30 people. How could the imperial capital be defended?

The ministers are all worried about their own safety.

"The rebels have approached the imperial capital. Dear friends, please join me in guarding the imperial capital." Emperor Yingxuan said.The ministers were all silent, and no one responded. Obviously, these ministers were not very confident that they could defend the imperial capital.

"Your Majesty, I think that the bandits are so powerful that we should stay away from them. If that doesn't work, let's move the capital." Yan Xing stood up and said.

"Move the capital?" Emperor Yingxuan frowned, "In your opinion, where should the capital be moved?"

"The veteran thought that the capital should be moved to the two southeast states. The two southeast states have always been rich, and there is a great river as a natural barrier, which can block the edge of the bandits.

As long as the imperial court can overcome the current difficulties, relying on the two prosperous southeastern states, it will surely be able to regain its strength and sweep away the rebels in the future. "Yan Xing talked hurriedly.

"Do you want me to be a running away king? Retreat to the two southeastern states? In the 800-year history of Daxia, which emperor has been so cowardly?

It is impossible for me to give up the Northland and flee to the two southeastern states to survive. Emperor Yingxuan said angrily.

"Your Majesty." Yan Xing wanted to persuade him again.

But he was directly interrupted by Emperor Yingxuan, "Okay, don't mention this matter again. Anyone who mentions moving the capital again will be served by the imperial staff.

What we need to do now is to mobilize all the troops in the imperial capital to defend the imperial capital.

In addition, I have ordered soldiers and horses from all over the world to come to serve the king. As long as we can hold on to the imperial capital, we will definitely defeat the rebels. "

Emperor Yingxuan did not agree with the Southeast Party's strategy of moving the capital. The Southeast Party members were very disappointed and gathered together to whisper after retreating from the court.

"Your Majesty does not agree to move the capital, and wants to defend the imperial capital. But can the imperial capital be defended? The rebels have an army of 30, and their momentum is like a rainbow. I think it will be difficult to defend the imperial capital."

"Yes, our Majesty is too stubborn." Two officials from the Southeast Party said.

"Well, now we can only take one step at a time. I hope this emperor can hold on." Yan Xing shook his head and said.

Emperor Yingxuan did not agree to move the capital. First, he did not want to bear the infamy. He had always held himself to the standards of a holy king and valued his reputation more than anything else.

Second, the two southeastern states are the territory of the Southeast Party, and the power of the Southeast Party firmly controls the two southeastern states.

After Emperor Yingxuan is gone, he is likely to be controlled by the Southeastern Party.

Furthermore, officials from the Zhang Party and the Eun Party in the imperial court would definitely not agree to move the capital to the two southeastern states.

Wu'an Marquis Min Jian began to get busy, and Emperor Yingxuan gave him the important task of defending the imperial capital.

Min Jian carefully inspected the city wall of the imperial capital, "Quickly, put a rolling log here and some rocks here to prevent the rebels from climbing up here."

"Yes, General."

Min Jian mobilized all the capital camps in the imperial capital, plus some miscellaneous troops, and gathered a total of 10 people.

Among the 10 people, only the [-] Beijing Battalion under his command were really able to fight, and the rest were just shams.

"I don't know if we can keep this 800-year-old capital." Min Jian said with a sigh.

In addition to the four states occupied by Pang Zhenxi and Kejiu, the other nine states among the thirteen states of Daxia successively received orders from King Qin.

Yingzhou is at war with the demon clan and has no extra troops to rescue the imperial capital.

Yanzhou is on guard against the Wu clan, and the soldiers and horses in Liaodong Town cannot move lightly.

The two western states are too far apart, and there are no soldiers to fight.

Lu Dazhang, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town in Yunzhou, ignored the governor Zeng Jiyou's order and went directly to Ping'an City to ask Han Chufan for his opinion.

Several other states were afraid of rebels and did not dare to go to Qinwang.

Emperor Yingxuan fell into an embarrassing situation with no one to rescue him.

In Ping'an City, Han Chufan also received orders from Emperor Yingxuan.

"Our Majesty, it seems that he is really in a hurry this time, and he actually asked our northwest military town to send troops." Han Chufan put down the imperial edict and said.

"The rebels have all reached the imperial capital. Can you not be anxious? Your Majesty, can we send troops?
I think it is better to let the rebels capture the imperial capital, and then we send troops to defeat the rebels, and then the prince can legitimately become the common master of the world. "Geng Chunping said.

Han Chufan was also moved, this was indeed a good opportunity.

"Let me think about it."

Outside the imperial capital, the rebels were already surrounded.

More than 30 Tiantian suppressing troops pushed all the way from Laohuguan to the imperial capital in three days.

Seeing the dense crowd of more than 30 rebels outside the imperial capital, the soldiers guarding the imperial capital felt numb.

The number of rebel thieves is too great, like locusts.

Pang Zhenxi walked out of the Central Army's tent and looked at the majestic Daxia Imperial Capital not far away. Beside him were the three kings of the Tianzhen Army: King Wu Shitou, King Wen Xu Hongyi, and King Yi Pang Shaoshan.

"The Imperial Capital will be our final battle. As long as we capture the Imperial Capital, the world will be ours." Pang Zhenxi said excitedly.

A small rebel was about to become the leader of the world, and Pang Zhenxi's heart swelled.

The supreme throne will soon be his. He has already thought of a new name for the country, and it will be called Daxi.

“Congratulations to the Heavenly King, congratulations to the Heavenly King, as long as the imperial capital is captured, other states will surely surrender to the Heavenly King.

This world will soon belong to you, the King of Heaven. "Xu Hongyi said with a smile.

"Haha, notify all the military camps to prepare to attack the city and capture the imperial capital within three days." Pang Zhenxi couldn't wait and issued the order to attack the city.

More than 30 rebels rushed towards the city walls of the imperial capital from all directions, and a group of people used large wooden siege carts to hit the city gate.

"Throw logs and stones quickly, don't let these rebels climb the wall." Min Jian commanded the defenders on the top of the city to resist the rebels' attack.

Under Min Jian's tight defense, the rebels suffered heavy casualties. After more than 1 people died, they retreated.

Thousands of city defenders were also killed on the city, most of whom were shot to death by the arrows of the Sky-Suppressing Army.

After the Zhentian Army captured Yuzhou, Xiangzhou and Zhuozhou, they obtained a lot of strong bows and crossbows, which caused considerable damage to Beijing.

"Finally we defeated them." Min Jian's armor was already covered with blood, and he lay on the ground tiredly.

In the battle just now, he killed 50 people by himself, as well as two warriors at the Body Refining Realm.

Min Jian consumed a lot of energy and blood and was very tired.

"I didn't expect that this imperial capital would be quite difficult to defeat." Pang Zhenxi said with a slight frown.

After defeating Duke Yan Chunxing of Dingguo, Pang Zhenxi attacked all the way to the imperial capital without encountering any major obstacles.

"King of Heaven, I have a plan." Xu Hongyi stood up and said.

"Oh? What's King Wen's plan?"

“King of Heaven, after we occupied Zhuozhou, didn’t we seize a lot of gunpowder?

We can take advantage of the darkness to bury a large amount of gunpowder under the imperial city wall, and then find an opportunity to ignite the gunpowder and blast a gap. "Xu Hongyi said.

"Gunpowder? Okay, why didn't I think that King Wen is indeed a scholar, and his brain is very good.

Just do what King Wen said and let them bury all the gunpowder they had captured before under the wall of the imperial capital at night.

Tomorrow, the gunpowder will be detonated, a gap will be opened, and the city will be invaded. Pang Zhenxi said.

Early the next morning, the Zhentian Army launched the second round of attack.

"Cheer up and defend the city." Min Jian shouted loudly, starting a new day of hard work.

The rebels once again rushed toward the city wall.

A few unnoticed rebels sneaked up to the base of the city wall and started lighting fires with flints.
