Chapter 463
In Jianchang City, the soldiers on the city wall suddenly noticed smoke and dust rising in the distance, and the earth was shaking. Their expressions suddenly changed, and they hurriedly sounded the gongs around them. Countless soldiers swarmed up and occupied the city wall in an instant. They bent their bows and set arrows, carefully. Guard against the enemy on the opposite side.

"Who is in the city? Open the city gate." A horseman galloped over and shouted loudly: "The Huangshan Cavalry Army of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been ordered to escort grain and grass here. Open the city gate quickly and let us pass."

"General Huang, wait a moment, I will report to Lord Zhu." The soldiers on the city wall saw the other party riding the sacred bull and half believed it in their hearts. However, thinking of Zhu Danchen's instructions, they still shouted loudly.

"If you don't report it, it will delay important things. How many heads have you gained?" Huangshan shouted.

The soldier didn't dare to neglect, so he quickly ordered someone to invite Zhu Danchen. Zhu Danchen came very quickly. When he saw the sacred bull riding on Huangshan below the city, he felt relieved. After all, the colorful sacred bull is the symbol of the Huang family of Wuchenghou. , which is difficult for anyone to imitate.

"This is General Huangshan, and I will be serving as Dali Zhu Danchen." Zhu Danchen said with a smile on his face and cupped his hands.

"The military order is here, open the city gate." Huangshan raised his right hand under the city, and heard a sharp roar, and a token fell on the city wall, making a sound of gold and iron.

Zhu Danchen picked it up and looked at it. Sure enough, one side said "Ling" and the other side said "Zhou", which was exactly the same as the token he saw at the beginning. He thought that no one could follow the example in his haste, so he waved his hand and asked people to Open the city gate.

The city gate slowly opened, and cavalry came slowly from the distance. In the lead were hundreds of cavalry, riding colorful sacred bulls, fighting in their hands, wearing khaki armor, looking very powerful, and then there were countless cavalry, Holding a sword in his hand and carrying a bow and arrow, he looks majestic and looks like an elite warrior.

"Lord Zhu, after all, he is the emperor's personal soldier. I have heard about it a long time ago. The emperor's personal soldier is majestic and majestic. The heroic cavalry army and the shooting army are very impressive. When I saw them today, they are really far superior to my Dali soldiers and horses!" When the city guarding captain saw this, he immediately sighed.

Zhu Danchen also touched his beard after hearing this and sighed: "Yes! The heroic cavalry army controls the sacred ox, holding a spear in hand, charging into the battle, invincible. The archery army draws its bow and arrows, and pierces the Yangtze River with a hundred steps. Eh!"

Zhu Danchen suddenly thought of something, his expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help but said loudly: "Close the city gate quickly, and wait for my officer to inquire carefully."

He realized something was wrong, but he still didn't dare to offend Da Zhou soldiers and horses at this time. What if these people were really Da Zhou's grain transport team?
It is a pity that it is so difficult to close the city gate again after it is opened. More importantly, hundreds of cavalry have entered the city and blocked the city gate. Even when Zhu Danchen gave the order, bursts of screams were heard.

Zhu Danchen suddenly felt his head swell, and he almost fell to the ground. He knew that he had been fooled. The group below were not Zhou soldiers at all, but enemies. He just didn't know these enemies. Where did it come from.

"You, go quickly and report to the king that Jianchang City has been attacked. Tell the king to be careful." Zhu Danchen pulled his son beside him and said loudly.But his eyes were confused for a while, because he didn't know who he was wary of?Be wary of King Ming, or even more wary of Great Zhou.

"Father, what about you?" The son looked anxious and his voice was sad.

"I, the Zhu family, have been favored by the king, whether it is the King of Dali or the King of Yanqing. I have been favored by the Duan family. Now it is time to repay." Zhu Danchen looked into the distance faintly, and then said His son pushed him down, took his sword, and led the soldiers around him to kill him.

His face flashed with determination and his eyes were resolute. In his opinion, if he hadn't been reckless enough to open the city gate, it would have been impossible for the enemy to enter the city.

He knew very well what impact the fall of Jianchang City would have on the precarious Dali. Dali, which originally had only half of the country left, could be destroyed at any time, and Jianchang City was the last hope.Once lost, Duan will face the fate of being attacked from two sides.

Now that Jianchang City was finally lost, the Duan family's last hope was gone. All this was because of his own fault. Zhu Danchen thought that he had only one option: death to repay the Duan family's kindness to him.

"Dang!" A sound of gold and iron clashed, and the soldiers on the sacred bull were knocked off their horses and their bodies shook.

"Divine power realm? You are the Imperial Guard of the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Danchen's expression suddenly changed when he felt the standard of the other party's internal strength, and he exclaimed in surprise. The only people who can become a soldier with the divine power realm are probably the Imperial Guards of the Ming Dynasty.

"Kill." As soon as he finished speaking, several cavalry were seen swarming up and fighting against Zhu Danchen. Although these people's martial arts were far inferior to Zhu Danchen, they were obviously proficient in battle formations. In a short period of time, they could not kill many. people.

But Zhu Danchen was very anxious. More and more enemies broke into the city. The defenders of Jianchang City retreated one after another, resulting in numerous casualties. Many soldiers were killed one after another. The city gate was dripping with blood and suffered heavy casualties.The loss of the city gate has become inevitable.

"Get out of the way." A shout came, and a powerful force came towards Zhu Danchen.

In desperation, Zhu Danchen took out the long sword in his right hand and took the iron bone fan from his waist. He used his inner strength and used the fan as a sword to perform the eight techniques of "Yong" with the sword edge in front of him.

A huge force came from his arm, and Zhu Danchen was forced to retreat continuously, his feet stepped on the ground, and the footprints were several inches deep. His face was pale and his right arm was shaking. "Innate realm." Zhu Danchen spat out a few words.

I use the sword as a hidden weapon just to buy myself more time, and even make him busy, but obviously this move is only for acquired masters, and is of no use against innate masters. The opponent's strength can easily destroy his own. Stainless steel sword.

Sure enough, not only his sword failed, but also the iron fan lost its effect. A strong and cold internal force poured into his arm, making his arm sore and numb, and his meridians were damaged.

A bit of silver light bloomed in front of him, and a silver gun appeared. Zhu Danchen thought of something and was horrified, but he still raised the iron fan in his hand. The silver gun hit the fan bone, which made a soft sound and cracked inch by inch.

"Mu Guiying of the Northern Song Dynasty, why is it you?" Zhu Danchen was knocked away. The iron bone fan itself was not a powerful weapon, nor was it made of any special material. It was destroyed instantly.

Zhu Danchen stared intently at the woman in front of him. She was still so beautiful and beautiful. Her whole body was like an iceberg, making people afraid to get close to her. Who else could it be if it wasn't the famous Northern Song Dynasty general Mu Guiying.

"A certain family is already a Marquis of Ming Dynasty Xiuyi. Seeing that you would rather die than retreat, you are also a loyal person, so retreat! What is happening in front of you is no longer something you can stop." Mu Guiying's eyes became softer. .

After many years in the Yang family, what Mu Guiying admired the most was this kind of loyal person, and he didn't want such a person to die by his own hands.

"You, as an important minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, why did you turn to the traitors?" Zhu Danchen opened his mouth and looked in disbelief. He never thought that the Yang family, which was always famous for its loyalty, would betray the Northern Song Dynasty and become the Ming Dynasty. of ministers.

"The Ming King is not a traitor." Mu Guiying shook her head. She was ordered to submit to the Ming Dynasty, not a betrayal. The monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty were ungrateful, but the Yang Clan would not.The Yang family suffered heavy losses due to the Khitans. Zhu Shou led an army to defeat the Khitans and avenged the Yang family. His move was also to repay his kindness.

"Zhu Danchen. I didn't expect it to be you." At this time, a clear voice came. Zhu Shou appeared in front of Zhu Danchen on a war horse and chuckled: "Zhu Danchen, I'm afraid you didn't expect that Gu would appear here. Bar!"

Zhu Danchen glanced around after hearing this, only to see that the screams around him were advancing in depth. Except for King Ming and several others, there was no one else at the scene. Those Dali soldiers who struggled to resist had all been killed. .

A wry smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, he took a deep breath and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Ming, considering that Zhu is about to die, can you ask Zhu to ask a few questions?"

"Are you asking how Gu appeared here?" Zhu Shou said nonchalantly: "Gu and the five thousand imperial guards abandoned their horses and walked through the Suohe Mountains. They defeated the Zhou soldiers and horses and captured the sacred cow. , food and grass, armor, and a token to mobilize troops from the Great Zhou Dynasty. Only then did they reach the gates of Jianchang City."

"No wonder, no wonder, our defeat is not unjust." After Zhu Danchen heard this, he suddenly showed a wry smile. Not everyone can do this kind of method. If any one of them goes wrong, it will definitely lead to the whole army being defeated. I am afraid that only King Ming would have the courage to return thousands of miles, cross the Suohe Mountains, launch a surprise attack, defeat hundreds of thousands of troops, seize armor and mounts, and falsely open the city gate. Such an operation, It's just unheard of and not something anyone would have thought of.

"Huang Feibing is really too arrogant and believes in his own eyes too much, but Duan Yu is a pedantic, foolish and filial person. Duan Zhengming does whatever he says and has long forgotten his position as the king of a country. Otherwise, , If you want to seize Dali, you need to find other excuses." Zhu Shou said regretfully.

"Yes! It's too late to say this now." Zhu Danchen looked at the broken iron fan in his hand and said loudly: "King Ming, my lord is in the south. Please allow me to die facing the south."

After hearing this, Mu Guiying showed a trace of unbearable expression on her face.

"Okay, Mr. Zhu is a loyal minister. I will help you. Not only that, I will also let you die under the Six Meridians Divine Sword." Zhu Shou nodded.

"Thank you, Your Highness King Ming." After hearing this, Zhu Danchen's face suddenly showed joy and he stood facing south.

Zhu Shou hit the sword with one finger, and the sword energy shot out and penetrated into the back of Zhu Danchen's head, killing him.

Looking at Zhu Danchen who fell to the ground, Zhu Shou said regretfully: "He was a loyal minister. It's a pity that he died."

"You can't be used by the king, and there is no use in staying." Mu Guiying shook her head.
