Chapter 3226: Holding the military talisman and refusing to surrender
Guanggu, inner city.
In the dim lights, the usually spacious and empty streets and the open space in front of the warehouse were crowded with people. Unlike a day ago, this military fortress was almost entirely filled with strong sergeants. Now the main people in the inner city
The crowd was all ordinary tribesmen wrapped in felt and fur blankets. Most of them were thin and exhausted.
More than half of the people were injured in some way, and the sounds of crying and wailing resounded around, occasionally mixed with the roars of rough soldiers who were not allowed to cry, followed by the sound of a whip being slapped on the flesh.
.
Only when such sounds appear will the cries and wailings calm down, but soon, new cries can be heard elsewhere. One after another, coupled with the occasional neighing of cows and horses, this inner city
The main theme of the city.
In the center of the inner city, above the main hall of the palace, more than twenty generals in full military uniforms with crooked and cracked helmets sat cross-legged in the hall. What was different from usual was that there were two women standing in the main hall.
Murong Lan and He Lanmin stood side by side, but the original dragon throne was empty. Murong Chui was lying on a stretcher like a dead man, motionless in the middle of the hall.
Murong Zhen stood opposite Murong Lan, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Everyone, do you have anything else to say? As it is, it's all Black Robe's fault!"
There was a burst of angry curses in the hall, the most rude and vicious curses, emanating from these scarred generals. Some of them could not help but put their hands on the handles of their swords, wanting to slash at the black-robed Murong Chui at any time.
.
Murong Lan sighed softly: "Liu Yu said that we must personally ask Murong Chui about the Tiandao League. If we hack him to death in anger, we will not be able to hand him over by then, and everyone will be dead."
There is a possibility of death, so everyone must control their emotions."
The yelling and cursing gradually subsided, and the hands holding the knife loosened one after another. A dozen mouthfuls of bloody spit were spat on the ground beside Murong Chui, which became the last way for these people to vent their anger. Standing opposite He Lanmin, He
Lan Lu said in a deep voice: "At such an important time, His Majesty, the Emperor of Dayan, did not show up to make up his mind. Isn't it a bit too..."
Murong Zhen said coldly: "When Murong Chui usurped power, he ordered Gongsun Wulou to assassinate His Majesty, causing His Majesty to be seriously injured. Now he is guarded by the Empress Dowager Gongsun. We have explained this to everyone from the beginning. Mr. Helan, your sister
I saw it with my own eyes at the time, so why bother with this issue anymore?”
He Lanlu gritted his teeth: "It's not that I want to dwell on this issue. It's actually a matter of war and peace. It's too important. Although the entire city's military talisman is now in Princess Lan's hands, but..."
Murong Lan said calmly: "Master Helan, this weapon talisman is in the hands of King Beihai now, not in my hands. Please don't make a mistake."
An imperceptible look flashed in Murong Zhen's eyes: "Princess Lan seems to have some objections to me not returning it to you immediately after accepting the military talisman. But I have also explained that this is an extraordinary moment. Murong Chui, who goes by the pseudonym Black Robe, said
Dayan has committed a heinous crime against our Murong clan and is no longer worthy of holding this weapon talisman, which is related to our Murong clan and the fate of Dayan. The weapon talisman he gave to you privately is invalid. This thing, the reason
Return it to Your Majesty. Now that His Majesty is away, as the commander of the armored cavalry and the first one to lead troops to escort it, I should be in charge of this talisman."
Helan Lu said in a deep voice: "What, King Beihai, do you want to repeat the story of Xiyan and seize power during the chaos? Do you want to use what Murong Yong did?"
Murong Zhen's expression changed and he said sternly: "Helan Lu, what are you talking about? In the face of a powerful enemy, what do you think this military talisman is? My two sons were tricked to death by Murong Chui today, why are you still here?
Do you think this power should be passed down between the brothers and sisters? Let me tell you, I don’t believe in anyone now, I only believe that I can protect myself!”
Having said this, he looked at Murong Lan with determination in his eyes: "Princess Lan, you should know that I have always respected you as a person, but this time is an exception. You are Heipao's sister and Liu Yu's wife. I
I really can’t believe that your position is still with us and all the clan members. If we go by what you said and the whole city surrenders in Kaicheng, maybe you can return to Liu Yu’s side and continue to live, but we
In a bloody battle with Liu Yu, with countless Jin army lives on his hands, is there any way to survive?"
Many generals and commanders in the palace talked to each other and nodded in agreement.
Murong Lan said calmly: "King of Beihai, please don't misunderstand me. My position has never changed. I will try my best to fight for the interests of my people. Over the years, I have tried my best to avoid war between Dayan and Eastern Jin.
It's because I know the consequences of war. Today, or the war this year, everyone should calm down. I used to say every day that we should avoid war. The Eastern Jin Dynasty is very strong, and few of you believe it. Even if it is to protect me.
I didn’t refute him face to face, but I know that you are unconvinced in your hearts.”
The generals lowered their heads one by one, looking ashamed. Indeed, these Xianbei people, who are the proud sons of heaven, have been truly overwhelmed by the powerful combat power of the Jin army and Liu Yu in the battles over the past year, especially today's battle.
After being impressed by the superb commanding ability of the Jin army general, even the god-like Murong Chui tried his best today but failed. Now everyone in this palace no longer has any hope of defeating Liu Yu.
The last bit of luck is nothing more than delaying it day by day until a miracle happens.
Murong Zhen sighed: "To be honest, we had fought against Liu Yu before in Xiyan, but it was the other way around. He led thousands of people to defend the city, while tens of thousands of us attacked, and Murong Yong personally led the troops.
Yes, I didn't defeat him at that time. I knew Liu Yu was very strong, but I didn't expect him to be so strong. Otherwise, my two sons wouldn't have to sacrifice in vain. Princess Lan, we all have to apologize to you for this. Although I opposed it before
When the Eastern Jin Dynasty started a war, they didn't think they could defeat the Jin army, but this time, we really lost and had nothing to say."
Murong Lan nodded: "When I sneaked into the Jin Kingdom as Murong Nan and met Liu Yuhe's newly established Beifu Army, I knew their strength well. I saw their growth step by step with my own eyes, and our Yan
After entering the Central Plains, the Xianbei people have been corrupted for too long and are no longer a match for the Northern Wei and Eastern Jin Dynasties. The terrible thing is that we are still glorifying our previous glory without knowing it, which is why we are defeated today!
