In order to save himself, the prince summoned 100,000 dragon riders at the start.

If they persist in resisting to the end... Lu Yuan will show them no mercy!

......

And at this time.

Upon hearing Lu Yuan rein in his horse and shout from below the camp wall, Wang Lixun's heart tightened immediately!

"What a fine Lu Yuan!"

"It seems... everyone underestimated you before!"

Wang Lixun stared intently at the young man beneath the camp wall.

at this time.

Lu Yuan's words hit Wang Lixun's biggest concern!

Lu Yuan is right.

This Great Wall Legion was trained by the former Zhenbei King, who was also Lu Yuan's father!

And now.

The enemy's son came in person to persuade them to surrender. Could those veterans really withstand the pressure?

......

really.

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's shout, the soldiers of the Great Wall Legion immediately turned bitter.

The scene they least wanted to see still happened!

I'm now... actually on opposing sides with the old prince's son!

A few years ago, they followed the old town's Northern King in his campaigns across the north and south.

just now.

The son of the old town's northern king... has come to their doorstep!

They also persuaded them to lay down their weapons and surrender.

This huge emotional gap instantly demoralized some of the soldiers in the Great Wall Legion!

All of them had received immense favors from the old King of Zhenbei!

just now.

How could he possibly lay a hand on his only living son?

At this moment, Wang Lixun noticed that there were signs of commotion within the legion's ranks.

Immediately, a ruthless thought flashed through his mind, and a wicked scheme arose within him!

Wang Lixun cleared his throat and suddenly shouted:

"Everyone, please don't be fooled by that scoundrel Lu Yuan's emotional appeal!"

"Lu Yuan, you traitor! You disregard all propriety and law, murdered the emperor and usurped the throne; you are the greatest villain of the world!"

"Lu Yuan has committed such a rebellious and disgraceful act. How can we associate with him? Shouldn't we avenge our monarch?"

"According to the laws of Heaven and Earth, the monarch is supreme!"

"I believe that even if the old Prince of Zhenbei were to come, he would definitely put righteousness above family ties and eliminate that traitor Lu Yuan!"

Wang Lixun's face was filled with sorrow.

It seems they are truly heartbroken that the Great Zhou Kingdom is no longer a nation!

really.

After hearing what Wang Lixun said.

The faces of the Great Wall Army soldiers, who had been taught to be blindly loyal by the former Prince of Zhenbei, immediately changed!

Their Great Wall Legion has always been known for its loyalty to the emperor.

now.

In just a few words, Wang Lixun defined Lu Yuan as a treacherous and wicked man who plotted to usurp the throne.

This directly touched their deepest moral bottom line!

At this time.

Wang Lixun then gave a wink to his close associates.

Those close associates immediately understood.

They also stepped forward and angrily cursed at Lu Yuan:

"Hmph! Lu Yuan, you despicable scoundrel!"

"They killed the Empress, and now they have the audacity to try and persuade us to surrender?"

"Our Great Wall Legion is utterly loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty and would never stoop to your level!"

"Brothers, we have received the Empress's grace, and we must not succumb to the tyranny of that villain Lu Yuan because of his few words!"

.......

With Wang Lixun and his cronies adding fuel to the fire, the situation was exacerbated.

The angry shouts grew louder and louder!

among them.

Upon hearing this voice, the eyes of some soldiers of the Great Wall Army immediately hardened!

Yes.

Lu Yuan is a traitorous and disloyal subject; how could I possibly collude with him?

now.

Their king was cruelly murdered by Lu Yuan.

Those of them, as subjects, had to avenge their king!

As for the other party being the old prince's son?

No.

The king is supreme; even the old prince's son cannot be above him!

......

of course.

Not all of the 700,000-strong Great Wall Army were completely brainwashed!

Some of them do have brains!

These are the people whose eyes darted around and whose attitudes wavered!

They were right to be loyal to the emperor.

But now the Great Zhou Dynasty is gone!

Moreover.

To lay a hand on the old prince's son shows a complete lack of consideration for past relationships.

They certainly couldn't do it!

then.

These people wavered repeatedly at the decision point of whether or not to surrender to Lu Yuan!
