The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

Chapter 144: The King of Ye is at the end of his rope, and only Shangyouguan is left

Click, click!

Under the city wall, Ye Feng was riding a war horse, holding the Emperor's Sword.

Not far in front of him was the city gate of Yecheng.

A series of deafening sounds rang out, and then a burly man appeared, holding a mace. His sturdy body burst out with tremendous strength, and he smashed towards the city gate.

"Mr. Cai, look at the city gate, are there still people there?" Zhao Xu stared at the city gate with horror on his face. Dashan was smashing the city gate frantically, making crackling sounds. Even though the city gate of Yecheng was extremely strong, it would not be able to hold out for too long and would be breached.

Cai Xuan's old face was filled with helplessness. When he saw the black-armored cavalry climbing up the city wall, he knew that Yecheng could not be defended.

Staring at Ye Feng riding a warhorse, he couldn't help shaking his head. It was rumored that the King of Zhenguo was young and handsome, but if he hadn't seen him in person, he really wouldn't believe that he was so young.

"Young Prince, you lead the guards to escape immediately. The farther the better. Don't come back. OK?" Cai Xuan said to Zhao Xu without hesitation.

"Mr. Cai, take care of yourself."

Zhao Xu had been waiting for Cai Xuan to say this. When he saw Li Shanxiao killing people on the city wall and the extremely powerful black-armored cavalry, he was already trembling with fear.

He turned around and fled to the other side of Yecheng with his thousand-man guard.

Boom!

The gate of Yecheng also collapsed with a loud bang as Zhao Xu left. Ye Feng led the cavalry in and rushed in, breaking the soldiers guarding the gate into pieces.

Ye Feng suddenly leaped up to the top of the city wall, drew out the Emperor's Sword, pointed it at the sky, and emitted a golden glow. He said in a loud voice, "I am the current emperor's appointed ruler of the country, ruling the Song Dynasty for your majesty. As a prince, Ye Wang Zhao Xiong should be loyal to your majesty, but he attempted to rebel, violated the Enfeoffment Order, and even wanted to kill his own son Zhao Shun. You are all citizens of the Song Dynasty. Do you also want to rebel and bear the charge of treason?"

"You are all soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty. If you lay down your weapons and surrender, we will forgive you for what happened."

The powerful voice echoed throughout Yecheng. The soldiers looked at each other, only to find that Zhao Xu on the city wall had disappeared long ago, leaving only Cai Xuan standing there.

"You use both kindness and force. How powerful!"

Cai Xuan secretly sighed when he heard Ye Feng's words. After hearing this, the soldiers on the scene would no longer resist stubbornly, after all, even the commander Zhao Xu had escaped.

What's more, these soldiers are all citizens of the Song Dynasty. When they see Ye Feng holding the Emperor's Sword, he looks so majestic, and is surrounded by the black-armored cavalry.

And what Ye Feng said later, that those who surrender would be forgiven, was equivalent to letting the soldiers on the scene completely put aside their worries. How could they not surrender?

Ding-ding-ding-ding!

"Greetings to the Lord of the State, we surrender."

The soldiers dropped their weapons one after another, and even Zhao Xu chose to flee. Even if they wanted to resist, they would die.

Hua Hua Hua...

Many soldiers also knelt down.

"Greetings to the King of Zhenguo!"

Many people in Yecheng also knelt down.

"Check the battlefield."

Ye Feng gave an order to Lady Xinling, Li Shanxiao and others, and began to reorganize the surrendered soldiers. There was hardly any casualties in this battle.

"I guess you are Cai Xuan, Zhao Xiong's advisor?"

Ye Feng sheathed the Emperor's Sword and came to the opposite side of Cai Xuan. He knew before that there was a counselor named Cai Xuan beside Zhao Xiong, who was dedicated to giving Zhao Xiong advice and had quite good abilities.

"Yes, that's right, I am."

Cai Xuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, young and promising, full of courage. Compared with Ye Feng at this moment, Zhao Xu was like the light of an ant compared with the bright moon, a world of difference.

"If you are willing to surrender to the court, I will forgive you for your past mistakes. You are very familiar with Yecheng, so you can serve as the county magistrate of Yecheng in the future. How about that?" Ye Feng said slowly. It was only a matter of time before he destroyed the King of Ye. The four cities and two passes of Ye County must also be managed by capable people.

"Hahaha... You are very powerful. It's a pity that I am a dying man. Why should I bear the stigma of disloyalty and injustice?"

Cai Xuan laughed loudly. He did not answer Ye Feng's words, but looked in the direction where Zhao Xiong led his troops to leave, and said, "Your Highness, I will leave first!"

Bang!

As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped high towards the city wall of Yecheng. With a bang, he crashed under the city wall, his flesh and blood mangled, and he died.

Seeing Cai Xuan leaping forward, Ye Feng couldn't help but shaking his head. He had the ability to stop Cai Xuan, but he didn't. Since the other party chose to die bravely, what was the point of forcing him to stay?

……

Go up to Youcheng.

Zhao Xiong personally led an army of 100,000. He wanted to capture Shangyou City and pass through Juyou Pass to resist Yuan City. He rode on a warhorse and looked at Yang Zaixing on the city wall and said, "Yang Zaixing, I have treated you well over the years. Why do you want to betray me?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Zaixing sighed slightly and said slowly: "Your Majesty, please listen to me. You are no match for the King of the State. If you are willing to lead the army to surrender, wouldn't it be great for you to be a free and easy person for the rest of your life? Why do you have unrealistic fantasies? As long as the King of the State is in the Song Dynasty, whether it is you, Your Majesty, or the King of Dongxuan, if they want to rebel, they will eventually perish."

"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Xiao Jian attacks the city!"

Zhao Xiong immediately ordered Xiao Jian to lead 20,000 vanguard troops, shouting and killing, and rushing towards Shangyou City.

"Fire arrows!"

At Yang Zaixing's command, dense arrows were shot out madly, giving Xiao Jian's vanguard troops no chance to climb the city wall.

After several waves of attacks, many people were lost and all failed.

If it weren't for the powerful siege tools of Ye Feng's Black Armor Cavalry and the strong skills of the siege soldiers, even if the other side had 20,000 soldiers defending the city, it would be impossible to quickly break through Yecheng.

"Charge for me, don't retreat!"

Seeing the vanguard army led by Xiao Jian retreating, he shouted loudly with a spear in his hand, and conveyed the order again.

call out!call out!call out!

Arrows were hurled one after another, accompanied by falling rocks. The soldiers of the vanguard army screamed. Xiao Jian saw that the siege soldiers had suffered heavy losses, and quickly came to Zhao Xiong and said, "Your Majesty, please order a retreat. If we continue to attack the city, the 20,000 vanguard soldiers will have to die here."

Yuan Tan frowned. Naturally, he saw Yang Zaixing's orderly command on the city wall of Shangyou City. It was impossible for them to quickly break through Shangyou City.

"Retreat and attack Xiayou City?"

Zhao Xiong thought that Yang Zaixing's place could not be broken, so he led his army to attack Zhong Feihua in Xiayou City. He still charged several times but returned without success.

On the contrary, Xiao Jian's vanguard army suffered more than 10,000 casualties after three days of charging and sieging the city, leaving only 6,000 to 7,000 people, all of whom were dejected.

"Report! Repay!"

"Your Majesty, Yecheng has been lost, the young prince is missing, and Mr. Cai is unwilling to surrender, so he jumped off the city wall and committed suicide."

Just as Zhao Xiong was retreating from the front line of Xiayou City, he heard the report from the scout. His face turned extremely ugly, and without any hesitation, he said, "The entire army retreats, retreat to Shangyou Pass!"

Zhao Xiong knew very well that if he continued to attack Xiayou City, he would most likely be attacked by Ye Feng's army from Ye City. At that time, he would form a pincer attack with Yang Zaixing and Zhong Feihua. He would be attacked from three sides and would undoubtedly be defeated. He had to find a way to seize a shelter so that he could continue to fight. Now the only way out was Shangyou Pass.
