Chapter 401: His Majesty the Emperor is Dead, We Surrender
"Well, that's a good idea. Let's do it this way."
"Pass on my order to have the navy ships unload at least 500 cannons and immediately begin bombardment."
"At the same time, send an order to the big ships to blow up the palace first. I want the Persian emperor to have no place to live!"
"In that case, the coastal defense artillery will not be used. It is better to save the ammunition for the attacking fleet."
Ning Quan immediately ordered
"I respect your order!"
Everyone accepted the order in unison.
Soon, the naval officers and soldiers began to get busy, dismantling the artillery and transporting it to the shore.
Naval guns are generally heavy and clumsy, but with so many soldiers, nothing is a problem.
At the same time, the large ship parked in the open sea received Ning Quan's order and quickly aimed at the Persian palace and opened fire.
The power of large ship guns is not comparable to that of ordinary artillery.
"Bang bang bang..."
A deafening roar sounded, and the Persian palace collapsed instantly, turning into a pile of ruins.
"Hahaha, now even if the Persian emperor doesn't die, he has nowhere to live."
Seeing this scene, Ning Quan said excitedly.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Everyone bowed in unison.
"Okay, stop bragging. Once the artillery is in place, start bombarding immediately. Don't waste time."
"Also, write some letters persuading the Persians to surrender and have them delivered to them. Maybe that will work and some people will surrender."
"General Huo will be in charge of the shelling here."
"General Zhou, you will be responsible for the affairs within the city, pacifying the people and restoring public order."
"General Bai, except for the troops that remain to siege the southern area, the rest of your troops must immediately withdraw from the city and rest."
"Two days later, you and General Yue will split your forces into two groups and capture the entire Persian territory in the shortest possible time."
"Yes, the general will take your orders!"
Huo Qubing, Zhou Yu, Bai Qi and others immediately bowed.
Next, everyone went their separate ways.
Ning Quan found a suitable location near the port, set up the coastal defense artillery, and then returned to the ship.
About three hours later, Ning Quan heard the rumbling sound of cannons coming from the south of the city.
The naval guns that arrived one after another began to fire.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The sound of the cannon shook the clouds and reached the sky.
The terrifying sound made the people in the city tremble.
The Persian soldiers in the southern area suffered.
They were already in a panic and were praying secretly.
However, they were subjected to intensive artillery fire, and it was covering fire, with nowhere to hide.
Suddenly, countless Persian soldiers and civilians screamed and wailed in the sound of artillery fire. Countless people were killed and wounded. At one point, blood flowed like a river, and corpses were everywhere. It was extremely tragic.
But the artillery fire never stopped.
The artillery fire lasted from afternoon to late night, and from late night to dawn, for a full day and night.
At this time, the entire South District had already turned into a ruin.
Countless Persian civilians and soldiers were engulfed by artillery fire.
The Persian palace was completely destroyed.
Such a fierce attack completely destroyed the morale of the Persian soldiers, and some soldiers even ran out to surrender.
After experiencing such a huge blow, the Persian emperor and his ministers were even more desperate.
They all knew that Persia was finished.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now? Is it really just a matter of waiting for death?"
In the basement of the imperial palace, the ministers said with grim expressions.
"Hmph, what else can I do? What else can I do except fight to the death?"
"In short, even if I die, I will never surrender to Daqian."
His Majesty the Emperor said this through gritted teeth.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, several ministers felt bitter and left one after another.
"Everyone, are we all going to die with His Majesty?"
Back in the other room, one of the ministers suddenly said.
"Your Majesty wants to fight to the death, what should we do?"
The other ministers were stunned and someone asked in return.
"Your Majesty wants to fight to the death, so you must accompany him?"
"Well, if that's what you think, then it's up to you."
"I won't stay here to die anyway. Let's go our separate ways while the gunfire is still going on."
Having said that, the minister turned and left.
"Wait, I'll go with you!"
"I want to come too. I have old people and children at home. I don't want to die!"
.....
Soon, several ministers also chose to leave.
Finally, only one minister was left in the huge basement.
"Alas, they've all left, so why should I stay?"
He sighed softly and left as well.
His Majesty the Emperor didn't know all this, and of course he wouldn't care even if he did.
He didn't want to live at all, he just wanted to resist until the last moment.
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened! There is an enemy attack!"
"There is an enemy attack!"
"Quick, protect His Majesty!"
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty, are you still in there?"
Soon, a hurried voice was heard.
Then, a tall figure walked in.
It was Julius, the commander of the Imperial Guards.
"Julius, what's the matter with all the panic?"
"Your Majesty, the Daqian army has broken through!" Julius said in panic.
"Breakthrough?"
The emperor was slightly stunned.
"Yes, it was breached, and the enemy is coming soon."
"Your Majesty, please follow me."
Julius said this as he walked closer to His Majesty, but a look of deep apology flashed in his eyes.
"Julius, you..."
Seeing Julius's gaze, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly realized something.
However, before the emperor could finish his words, a sharp pain shot through his body.
It turned out that Julius had pierced the emperor's chest with a sword.
"You...you betrayed me?" His Majesty the Emperor widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry. We've already lost this war. I can't just watch so many soldiers die in vain."
Julius said with a guilty look on his face.
"Pfft."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sharp sword pierced the emperor's chest again, and blood spurted out.
The emperor died with his eyes wide open and a look of resentment on his face.
"Come, take His Majesty's body out."
"Order the entire army to surrender to Daqian."
Then he said coldly and ruthlessly.
"As ordered!"
Soon, the emperor's body was dragged out.
The soldiers were then ordered to surrender.
"Crash."
After a while, the remaining Persian soldiers raised white flags.
"Hahaha, you surrender already? That feels great."
Seeing this, Huo Qubing laughed out loud.
"Quick, tell them they are allowed to surrender."
"Yes, General!"
Soon, countless Persian soldiers lined up and walked out, and were then tied up and taken away one by one.
Julius came out a little later, carrying the Emperor's body.
"Haha, this is your emperor?"
Huo Qubing looked at the body of the Persian emperor and asked coldly.
"Yes, General."
"Now that His Majesty the Emperor is dead, we are willing to surrender."
Julius said sadly.
