There was still no response from the golden guards under the city.
Lieutenant General Liu Mingchang couldn't bear it any longer, and a captain waved from beside him, "Go up and see what's going on!"
"yes!"
At this time, the Qingqi led by Liu Mingchang was still fifty meters away from Jiading Pass.
In addition, it was late at night and it was impossible to see clearly what was happening under the city wall.
The captain stepped forward and after walking more than 20 meters, he saw clearly what was happening at the foot of the city wall. He was instantly shaken and fell off his horse. The golden guards were stepping on corpses one after another...
However, Jin Yiwei remained motionless and regarded the corpse as flat ground.
When Liu Mingchang saw this, he frowned and said, "What's going on?"
The commander panicked, "General...general, they are all corpses!"
What?
Liu Mingchang was also shocked!
With a crash, torches were lit on the tower, as well as the brazier for lighting...
At this moment, Liu Mingchang could clearly see the scene downstairs in Jiading Pass City.
He also saw clearly the armor on the corpses and the dying war horses.
Astonishingly, just like them...
Xiao Zhanming slowly appeared and said in a deep voice: "People downstairs, listen, put down your weapons and raise your hands above your head. Your sin of rebellion will be forgiven!"
Liu Mingchang raised his head, his eyes as sharp as knives, "Who the hell do you think you are, and you dare to point fingers in front of my Liu family Qingqi?"
"Everyone, dismount and prepare to attack the city!"
The Qingqi dismounted one after another.
Showing the long sword in his hand, he quickly formed a formation.
When Xiao Zhanming saw this, he sneered in his heart and pulled Liu Jiang over, "Look who this is?"
Liu Mingchang soon saw Liu Jiang being arrested, and his eyes turned red instantly, "Father...Father, bastard, let my father go!"
Yes, Liu Mingchang is Liu Jiang's son.
Xiao Zhanming ignored Liu Mingchang and asked Qingqi, "As the army of the Wu Dynasty, you serve the Wu Dynasty, not a private army of a certain person or a certain family, do you understand?"
"Now Liu Jiang and below are guilty and want to seek power and usurp the throne. Do you want to follow him and be punished by the nine tribes?"
"Also, everyone, think about your family, relatives and friends behind you!"
Xiao Zhan's voice was as powerful as a bell, extremely powerful.
The words and emotions were mixed, and naturally it touched the hearts of everyone present...
Liu Mingchang roared angrily, "Don't listen to his nonsense, follow me to attack and level the Jiading Pass!"
The 20,000 people behind him suddenly stopped moving, and they were all standing still.
When Liu Mingchang saw this, he was very angry and trembling. He pulled out his long sword and slashed left and right. Two innocent soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
Doing so, instead of arousing Qingqi's fighting spirit, actually made them angry. They were also flesh and blood humans, not animals.
The next second, two captains suddenly rushed out with spears in hand. Without saying a word, they pierced Liu Mingchang's heart and shouted: "Kill the rebels!"
Liu Mingchang vomited blood and turned his head, his face full of unwillingness and confusion...
When Liu Jiang saw him on the tower, his eyes were bloodshot. This was his only son, and now he was killed in this way.
"Ahh..."
"Chang'er!"
A heartbreaking roar.
Xiao Zhanming was very satisfied with the actions of Liu Jiang Corps. What he wanted was to capture the rebels without spending a single soldier.
"Take away their weapons and armor and register them all!"
"yes!"
The battle is over.
The reason why the 20,000 Qingqi did not resist was that their backbone Liu Jiang had been captured.
In a short time, all the corpses inside and outside Jiading Pass were disposed of.
That night, Xiao Zhanming returned to Beijing with Jin Yiwei.
…
The next day, above the Golden Palace.
Jiang Ning dealt with the trivial matters reported by the six departments, then put his hands on his temples and fell into deep thought.
When the civil and military officials below saw it, they couldn't help but frown. Why is Your Majesty so worried?
According to the time calculation, Jiang Ning knew that it was time for Liu Jiang to return, but he didn't know what the situation was at Jiading Pass.
Thinking of this, he became very worried!
This battle is related to whether he can continue to sit in the position of the Ninth Five Supreme Being!
Time passes minute by minute...
After a while, Yang Hui plucked up the courage and said softly: "Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?"
"If you feel uncomfortable, go back to the side hall and rest!"
Jiang Ning calmed his eyes and said with a long sigh: "I'm fine. The meeting is over. Everyone, please go down!"
All the civil and military officials looked at each other and did not dare to leave.
Because at the end of the court meeting, Jiang Ning usually leaves, and then all the officials leave one after another.
Just when they were hesitating whether to leave or not, a guard in golden clothes rushed up to the hall, slammed his knees on the gold bricks, "See your Majesty, long live my emperor!"
"Good news from the front, General Xiao has won a great victory and has captured the rebels and traitors!"
Jiang Ning was originally lazy and sleepy, but after hearing Jin Yiwei's report, he suddenly woke up.
An unprecedented smile appeared on his face, and he stood up from the throne excitedly.
"Where is General Xiao?"
"Back to Your Majesty, General Xiao is resting in Lanting City, three hundred miles away from the capital!"
"Okay...okay..." Jiang Ning said three numbers in a row, raising his head and laughing, "You are indeed the person I like!"
All the civil and military officials present were stunned.
How could there be a war for no reason?
Liu Zhong was thoughtful and said, "Your Majesty, why is there a war ahead?"
Jiang Ning's eyes fell on Liu Zhong, and within a moment, he became extremely aggressive.
His eyes were full of murderous intent. Yes, he wanted to kill Liu Zhong for more than a day or two.
After Liu Zhong noticed Jiang Ning's fierce eyes, his expression twisted, feeling that something was wrong.
Jiang Ning stared at Liu Zhong, "National Master, do you want to know?"
Liu Zhong hesitated for a while and then said: "It all depends on your Majesty's wishes!"
"Okay..." Jiang Ning opened his arms and waved, full of domineering, "Today I will tell you where this war comes from!"
When all the civil and military officials saw this, they all obediently pricked up their ears.
Jiang Ning said directly: "Zhennan Hou Liu Jiang's rebellion was suppressed by the Jin Yiwei I secretly trained!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Golden Palace was shocked speechless, and everyone's eyes were focused on Liu Zhong.
Liu Zhong never expected such an answer.
"Your Majesty...it is impossible for Liu Jiang to plot rebellion..."
At this moment, Liu Zhong panicked, and a cruel look appeared on his old face.
Jiang Ning glanced at Liu Zhong coldly, "Master, do you think I have no evidence?"
"this……"
Liu Zhong's fists in his sleeves were bleeding, and he couldn't hold them anymore.
He knew in his heart that the game with Jiang Ning had come to an end.
Simply, if you don't do one thing or the other, you will end up being known as a rebel and a traitor.
"Wu Hemo, capture Jiangning for me..."
When things got to this point, Liu Zhong could only choose to break up.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Hemo led the Golden Dragon Guards into the Golden Palace, and a coup happened in a thunderous moment...
