Chapter 158
Outside Jiangling City, a high platform was erected in the middle of the same distance from Jiangling City and Daqian's army.
Lu Ziang and Wang Xuan are now sitting opposite each other on this high platform.
"Your Highness, surrender as soon as possible!" Lu Ziang looked at Wang Xuan with a look of regret.
He admired the Zhenbei King and Wang Xuan, the Zhenbei Prince's eldest son.
After all, a Northern Rebellion Rongdi killed the Great Khan of the previous generation, and a person who dared to kill Rongdi's envoy in court was still the Khan's younger brother, so it was quite refreshing.
Although he didn't understand why the other party made such a rebellious move, there must be something hidden in it.
But that's not something he can consider. Soldiers take obedience as their duty.
Since the country decided to send out rebels, he naturally had to obey.
However, not many people came this time. Although it was called an army of 100,000, it was only 30,000 elites who could really fight, including civilians and gangs.
But it was enough to level the entire South Vietnam, let alone Jingzhou, or even a small Jiangling Prefecture.
I hope that the other party will really take care of themselves and surrender, and don't let anyone live in ruins.
"Is this what the Holy One means?" Wang Xuan asked.
If the empress was really with him, why would she send troops to attack him?
Because of the death of the governor?
From Wang Si's description, this was a conspiracy. After all, the governor hit the sword himself. In other words, someone wanted to use this incident to denounce Wang Xuan.
Even... forcing Wang Xuan to rebel!
Lu Ziang nodded, cupped his hands and said, "This is of course the Holy Majesty's will. If Your Highness still has a heart of loyalty to the Emperor, it would be better to capture him without hesitation in order to avoid the loss of life!"
"This prince has not rebelled, do you believe it?" Wang Xuandao.
Lu Ziang shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. What matters is whether the Holy One believes it or not, and whether the ministers believe it. Your Highness can follow me to Beijing and you can defend yourself when the time comes."
This is the truth.
But from ancient times to the present, once you fall into the trap of self-evidence, you will never be able to clear it up.
What's more, he has the intention to rebel.
Let your life be in the hands of others and it won't matter what you say.
"Then we have nothing to talk about. Let's meet the real chapter!"
Lu Ziang frowned.
Although he knew that Wang Xuan could not really agree, he did not expect that the other party did not even say a word in defense.
Is it true that, as the minister said, Wang Xuan has the intention to rebel?
Or is it that not only the Prince of Zhenbei, but the entire Zhenbei Palace has thoughts of rebellion?
Thinking of this, his heart became extremely solemn.
The King of Zhenbei rebelled, which was a big deal.
Now the King of Zhenbei is in charge of the four northern states, and he is fighting fiercely with the Rong and Di armies.
How is it possible to rebel?
If they rebel and let the Rong and Di armies move south, the entire Central Plains will be wide open and only one Yellow River will guard it. What should we do?
Of course, this is not something he, a little hussar general, can decide.
Let’s complete the task at hand first!
Bang!
Breaking the cup is the number.
The high platform broke apart instantly, and dozens of soldiers emerged. With a throw of his hand, the iron net spread all over the sky, covering Wang Xuan instantly.
"Protect His Highness!"
Wang Si shouted in shock.
The dozen Black Dragon Guards who followed rushed forward and struggled with the sergeants.
"Hmph! General Lu, you don't have any martial ethics!" Wang Xuan sneered.
Negotiations between the two armies are generally open and aboveboard, and such petty tactics will not be used at all.
Lu Ziang's face turned red, but then he said sternly: "Soldiers are treacherous. Facing traitors like His Highness, there is no such thing as a gentleman or a gentleman."
As long as Wang Xuan can be captured and internal strife in the country is avoided, this dishonorable method is nothing.
Wang Xuan nodded. Although Lu Ziang's methods were despicable, to be honest, he admired them very much.
The enemy is the enemy, and only dead enemies are good enemies.
To deal with the enemy, there is no need to be a gentleman or not; this is all pedantic.
You should be like Lu Ziang and do whatever you can.
Unfortunately, it's not enough.
"What a pity!" The corner of Wang Xuan's mouth raised. "General Lu is still not ruthless enough. If it were me, there would be a lot of poison and iron thorns on this iron net, and the opponent would definitely die without a burial place."
The corner of Lu Ziang's mouth twitched. The Prince of Zhenbei was really vicious in his thoughts.
He just wanted to arrest people, not kill them.
"Your Highness has a good idea. I can give it a try against the barbarians. However, after all, Your Highness has contributed to my great achievements. Let's wait until His Highness arrives in Luodu to discuss the rights and wrongs in front of the Holy Master!"
As he spoke, the sound of horse hooves sounded, and dust filled the sky in the distance.
Lu Ziang's army and horses are already arriving.
Seeing this situation, Lu Ziang finally felt relieved.
I didn’t expect that this counterinsurgency was really light.loose.
It also has something to do with the dishonorable methods he used.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles, so it would be better to have fewer casualties.
But in the next moment.
Stab~
The iron net that trapped Wang Xuan was like paper, and Wang Xuan tore it apart easily.
Lu Ziang opened his mouth wide and was speechless.
How can this be!
This iron net made of deep sea fine iron, coupled with more than a hundred days of forging by the capital's craftsmen, even the most advanced General Yang Heng could not tear it apart so easily!
How could it be possible for Crown Prince Wang Xuan, who is just a Grandmaster to be... wrong! The other party is in the ultimate state!
Only then did Lu Ziang realize that he had misjudged the opponent's strength.
But it's normal.
The last time the opponent made a move was at the Grandmaster level. Although it was a perfect Grandmaster, it was comparable to the average Ultimate level.
But this iron net will definitely be able to trap them until the army sieges them.
When the time comes, the opponent will be unable to fly.
But what I never expected was.
In just over half a year, the opponent has broken through from the master to the ultimate level.
And it's not just an ordinary one. Looking at it like this, he feels stronger than General Yang Heng.
"Oops!" Lu Ziang was horrified.
The military horses behind him would not arrive for a while.
The dozens of people on his side will definitely be killed by the other party!
Sure enough, the next moment, Wang Xuan took action.
An invisible power descended on the high platform instantly, and all enemies were suppressed and unable to move.
Just when Lu Ziang thought he was going to be killed, Wang Xuan said:
"Xuanlong Guards, listen to the order and withdraw!"
All the Xuanlong guards put away their swords and followed Wang Xuan away.
After a while, the pressure disappeared instantly.
But Wang Xuan and others had also fled, leaving only a faint silhouette behind.
Lu Ziang's face was covered in sweat.
Just a little bit, he thought he was going to die.
I was still careless.
Mainly, I didn't expect that the other party was actually at the top level.
"But why didn't the other party kill me?" Lu Ziang wondered.
From this point of view, is the other party really not treasonous?
Then if you do this, will you become someone's gun?
...
On the way back to the city.
Wang Si still couldn't help but said:
"Your Highness, why don't you kill those people, especially Lu Zi'ang? As long as you kill him, Daqian's army will be leaderless. In this way, the crisis of the siege will definitely be resolved without an attack."
Wang Si is right.
This was also what Wang Xuan thought at the beginning.
If the other party does not agree to retreat, he will kill the other party's general.
If you don't agree, you will continue to assassinate me.
Unexpectedly, the other party took action first, but did not want to kill him.
As a result, Wang Xuan became interested.
"Why don't we just...acquire them?"
