With a million soldiers, the empress begged me not to rebel

At this time, in the city lord's mansion, General Chisha was discussing countermeasures with several generals.

"General, the city gate has been breached. The Zhang family's army is overwhelming. How should we respond?"

A general asked anxiously, rubbing his hands constantly and beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

General Chisha's face was solemn. He paced back and forth, and after pondering for a moment, he said:

"Pass the order down, all soldiers, defend the City Lord's Mansion to the death and fight the Zhang family army to the death!"

His voice was low and powerful, revealing a sense of determination.

"Boom!" A deafening noise was heard again, and the gate of the City Lord's Mansion finally couldn't bear the weight and collapsed.

Wood chips, gravel and dust flew everywhere, covering the sky and the sun.

Zhang Tianba laughed loudly and rushed in from the thick dust, with the huge hammer in his hand dripping with blood.

The soldiers of the Zhang family army followed closely behind, pouring into the palace like a tide, and engaged in a final desperate battle with the Chisha army.

General Chisha led the troops, holding a long sword and charging left and right.

He was wearing heavy armor and covered in blood, but he remained undeterred, and every time he swung his sword, he took a life.

The soldiers behind him were also fearless and fought to the death.

Although they were outnumbered, they still did not give up hope.

In order to protect their homes and defend their dignity, they fought until the last moment.

However, in the face of the powerful offensive of the Zhang family army, the resistance of the Chisha army seemed increasingly weak.

Their formation was broken up, soldiers fell one by one, and blood dyed every bluestone slab in the government office red.

Although General Chisha is a martial arts expert, he cannot defeat four people with just two fists.

Gradually, more wounds appeared on his body, and blood flowed through the gaps in the armor.

He was breathing heavily, his eyes scanning the enemies around him fiercely, but he gripped the long sword in his hand even tighter.

Zhang Tianba grinned grimly and approached General Chisha step by step.

He swung his giant hammer, knocking away the Red Sand Army soldiers who stood in his way one by one.

The giant hammer, with a whistling sound, smashed hard at General Chisha.

General Chisha barely dodged the attack, but the huge impact still made him stagger a few steps and almost fall.

"Chisha! Die!"

Zhang Tianba raised the giant hammer again and smashed it down on General Chisha's head.

General Chisha tried his best to block with his sword.

"Dang!" There was a sharp sound of metal collision, and sparks flew everywhere.

The long sword in General Chisha's hand broke with a sound, and his knuckles were cracked, with blood flowing out.

With a muffled groan, his body involuntarily retreated.

Zhang Tianba took advantage of the situation and swung the giant hammer again, hitting General Chisha hard in the chest.

"Puff!" General Chisha spat out a mouthful of blood and fell heavily to the ground.

"General!"

Seeing this, the remaining Red Sand Army soldiers were heartbroken and dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender.

Sharifei looked at General Chisha lying in a pool of blood, his eyes red with grief and anger.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the grief in his heart, and shouted loudly:

"Brothers, lay down your weapons and surrender! We have done our best!"

The soldiers of the Zhang family army rushed forward and tied up the surrendered soldiers of the Chisha army.

"Seize weapons and equipment, and take all prisoners into custody!"

Zhang Xinwang gave the order coldly.

The soldiers took the order and began to clean up the battlefield.

Zhang Xinwang curled his lips in disdain and looked down at General Chisha lying on the ground.

"Where are the imperial seal and imperial edict?"

"In the hands of the butcher."

Although he had fallen, Chisha still maintained his final expression and told the truth.

"I'm already like this, what's the point of lying to you again?"

Zhang Xinwang snorted coldly.

"If it's not in your hands? Then what's the point of keeping you?"

He gestured.

Zhang Tianba understood and smashed General Chisha's head hard with the huge hammer in his hand.

"Bang!" With a dull sound, General Chisha's head exploded like a watermelon, and red and white splashed all over the ground.

The body fell limply to the ground, a horrible death.

Seeing this scene, Sharifei was frightened out of his wits and felt a warm sensation in his crotch.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Tianwang waved his hand disdainfully.

Two soldiers of the Zhang family army stepped forward, one picked up General Chisha and the other picked up Shalifai, and dragged them aside roughly.

The soldier drew a sharp dagger from his waist, and the blade flashed coldly in the firelight.

With a wave of his hand and a slash of the knife, a head rolled to the ground, blood gushed out, staining the ground red.

Another soldier did the same thing, and Sharifei's head also rolled into the dust.

Zhang Xinwang looked at the two dead heads on the ground with their eyes open, a cruel smile on his face.

He waved to a personal soldier.

"Clean these two heads thoroughly, place them in a fine wooden box, and send them to Jingzhou City."

The personal guards followed orders and carefully picked up the two heads.

Wipe it clean with a cloth and place it in an exquisite wooden box.

"Tell the Queen of Jingzhou City,"

Zhang Xinwang paused, a sinister look flashing in his eyes.

"This is my betrothal gift to her. Tell her to wash her neck and wait for me!"

The personal soldier hugged the wooden box tightly, bowed and replied, "Yes!" Then he turned and left.

Zhang Xinwang looked around and saw corpses everywhere on the battlefield and blood flowing like a river.

He frowned slightly and said to Zhang Tianba beside him:

"Clean up the battlefield and bury the bodies of the fallen soldiers properly."

Zhang Tianba replied in a muffled voice, "Yes, big brother!"

He then began to command the soldiers to clean up the battlefield.

Some soldiers carried corpses, some collected weapons and equipment, and some treated the wounded.

Zhang Xinwang walked to the side and a soldier quickly handed him a clean cloth.

He took the towel, wiped the blood off his face, then looked up in the direction of Jingzhou City.

"Jingzhou City, I'll be there soon!"

He muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with ambition.

……

Jingzhou City, inside the meeting hall.

An exquisite wooden box was placed in front of Chen Qingwan, emitting a bloody smell.

Two heads, General Chisha and Shalifi, who died with their eyes open, lay quietly there, their deaths were tragic.

Chen Qingwan tried hard to suppress the nausea in her stomach.

She stared at the two heads intently, her brows furrowed, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

"Zhang Xinwang, you are so brave!"

She gritted her teeth and slammed her palm on the table, making a loud noise.

The speed and ruthlessness of the Zhang family's actions far exceeded Chen Qingwan's expectations.

In just a few days, the situation around Jingzhou has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The coalition forces were defeated, the Chisha Army was destroyed, and the Zhang family seemed to be ready to take over the world.

"Zhang Xinwang is coming to Jingzhou!"

This news exploded in Chen Qingwan's mind like a thunderclap.

After driving away the wolves, a tiger comes. Jingzhou is in danger!

"Your Majesty, we should retreat immediately!"

Li Mu's voice was filled with anxiety.

"The Zhang family's cavalry is coming with such force that Jingzhou City may find it difficult to resist."

"Why don't we retreat to Qingzhou, rely on the mountain terrain, lure the Zhang family cavalry into Shannan Prefecture, and then make plans."

Chen Qingwan shook her head and rejected Li Mu's proposal.

"Retreat to Qingzhou? That's easy to say! What will happen to the people of Jingzhou if we retreat?"

"Where is the dignity of the Datong Dynasty? I will never retreat!"
