Chapter 397 The Tianyan spies did send Tang Yin's persuasion into Jian City, and it did fall into the hands of the city lord Qiu Yue.
After reading this letter of advice, Qiu Yue called all the officials and staff under him to discuss countermeasures.
Qiu Yue was a person who had no opinions, and now he knew that Zhong Tian and the Ning Army were near Jian City, and he also knew that there were a large number of Tianyuan Army pursuers behind him, but he didn't know what choice he should make now, whether he should continue to be loyal to Zhong Tian or defect to Tang Yin.
After the officials and staff members under him saw the persuasion, everyone's faces changed, and some people were surprised: "This is a letter written by Tang Yin, saying that Tang Yin has led the main force of the Tianyuan Army to chase and kill." ” "Presumably so," Qiu Yue replied weakly.
"According to the opinion of his subordinates, the Ning army can't resist the main force of the Tianyuan army, the king doesn't, Zhong Tian can't resist it, my lord, now we should close the city, and we must not let Zhong Tian enter the city, this is to set himself on fire."
"This" Qiu Yue also had such a plan in his heart, but he was also a little worried about letting him keep Zhong Tian, the king, out of the city.
He asked with concern: "What if the other side forcibly attacks the city?"
"The subordinates don't think so.
Although there are only more than 1,000 defenders in our city, Zhong Tian and Ning's army are not many, and they are from a long journey, tired up and down, our side is waiting for work, and there is a city as a barrier, it is not easy for the other party to forcibly attack recently, and now the Tianyuan army is behind Zhong Tian and Ning's army, and is personally commanded by Tang Yin, thinking that Zhong Tian and Ning's army are not so bold to dare to attack our Jiancheng easily. ” As the staff member finished, the others nodded their heads, believing that he was right.
Qiu Yue took a breath and asked the others' opinions again.
The opinions of the other officials and staff members were basically the same as the person just now, and they all thought that with the current situation, they had to cut off relations with Zhong Tian no matter what, otherwise it would be tantamount to digging their own grave and pushing Jian Cheng into the fire pit.
One person, two people said this, Qiu Yue may still be a little hesitant, and everyone said this, Qiu Yue was completely iron-hearted.
He nodded heavily, looked around at everyone, and said, "Okay, according to your opinion, this time I have gambled the lives of the whole family and the people of the city, I hope that God will open his eyes and keep me safe in Jiancheng." ” The "Lord Wise" people didn't have as many worries as Qiu Yue, and in their opinion, now was the best time to join the Tianyuan Army.
Tang Yin commanded 10,000 light cavalry and 60,000 Sky Eagle Army to set off south, chasing them again, and Zhong Tian and Ning Jun also got the news.
Although they had rested for most of the day, the whole army had not eased up at all, but even if they were tired, they did not dare to continue to stop, and the remnants of the 20,000 defeated soldiers had to get up one after another and march in the direction of Jiancheng.
According to the meaning of the battle matchless, even if you enter Jian City, you can't stop, after supplying food and grass, you will pass through the city directly, if you stop and be blocked in the city by the army of the Tianyuan Army, it will be a big deal. didn't go far, and another detective came from the rear, this time it was Pengjun's report.
After the detective saw Zhong Tian, he fell to his knees with a thud, and said in a trembling voice: "King, the big thing is not good" The detective told the story of Zhong Tian's father being beheaded by the Tianyuan Army, hanging his head on the handsome flag, and Zhong Tian's concubines being assigned by Tang Yin to the generals of the Tianyuan Army.
After hearing the news, Zhong Tian's head buzzed, his eyes turned black, and he almost fainted on the spot.
Seeing Zhong Tian's body shaking again and again, the surrounding guards hurriedly stepped forward, supported him, and called out repeatedly: "Great King, Great King" "Wow" Zhong Tian felt a hot current surging up between his chest and abdomen, and then his throat was sweet, and he opened his mouth to spew out a stream of blood.
The words "Oh, Tang Yin deceived me too much" were squeezed out of Zhong Tianya's teeth.
"The king is angry, the king should take care of his body" "Father" At this time, Zhong Wu was also supported by the guards and walked over, he clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and said: "Let Erchen go and fight Tang Yin to the death" Zhong Wu and Wu Guang fought, the two of them were fighting and both were injured, Zhong Wu's current injury is not light, not to mention fighting, even if he walks around, he has to rely on people to support him.
Hearing his words, Zhong Tian was even more sad, old tears were rampant, for a moment, Zhong Tian seemed to be more than ten years old, he grabbed Zhong Wu's shoulders with trembling hands, and said in a trembling voice: "Now my father has only one of your relatives left, if you have three long and two short, then how can my father live?"
After Zhong Wu listened, he couldn't help but shed tears, his legs bent, he knelt down in front of Zhong Tian, tears were sprinkled with tears, and he choked up: "The son is incompetent, and he can't solve problems for his father."
Looking at Zhong Tian and Zhong Wu, the two fathers and sons who were crying together, Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wushu did not have the slightest sympathy, and only felt extremely bored.
The two glanced at each other, and the brothers looked at each other.
Invincible and invincible, he walked quickly to Zhong Tian and Zhong Wu, and said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, by the way, this is not the time to be sad and sad, if we delay any longer, when the Tianyuan Army pursues and kills, it will be difficult for us to get out." ” Hearing this, Zhong Tian's body was shocked, and he didn't say anything, but Zhong Wu raised his head angrily and glared at the invincible battle.
The latter was taken aback by his fierce eyes, but he was not afraid of him, and said mockingly: "If Second Highness thinks that he can defeat Tang Yin's thousands of troops, it doesn't matter if we delay here. ” "You" Zhong Wu had long been invincible and invincible in his eyes and no one could bear it to the limit, at this time they burst out together, he stood up suddenly, his hand also grasped the hilt of the sword on his waist, and the two tiger eyes turned scarlet due to congestion.
Zhan Wushu didn't take his anger in his eyes at all, squinted at him, and asked with a sneer: "What is Your Highness going to do?"
"What do I do" Zhong Wu was about to draw his sword between words, but at this time, Zhong Tian calmed down first, took the first step, pressed Zhong Wu's wrist, and shouted: "Wu'er must not be rude."
As he spoke, he looked at the invincible again, didn't smile, and said: "Wu'er is young, and if he offends the general, I hope the general will not be surprised." ” "Hmph, as long as the king's movements can be faster, don't delay the time of all of us."
After speaking, Zhan Invincible glared at Zhong Wu fiercely and walked away.
Zhong Tian's current situation is both pitiful and pathetic, in front of Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wuwu, he is not a king at all, not even a dog, the reason why the Zhan family brothers are willing to bring him is a burden, it is completely in accordance with King Ning's will.
The father was killed, the head was in a different place, and the wives and concubines were divided and wantonly humiliated, which is a great shame for any man, not to mention that Zhong Tian is still a dignified king.
It's a pity that now he can't afford to take revenge, and he doesn't even have time to be sentimental, in front of the domineering Zhan brothers, he is already cold, and at this time he can also feel the treatment he can receive even if he escapes to Ningguo.
Cooperating with Ning Ren really conspired with the tiger, but now Zhong Tian regretted it too late.
The Ning army rushed to Jiancheng with Zhong Tian, a journey of only ten miles, which was really extremely difficult for the Ning army at this time, and it was also the most difficult march that the battle and the invincible war had ever experienced.
Looking up, the Ning army has long lost its phalanx, the military flag has almost been lost, the team is sparsely pulled, a group in the east, a cluster in the west, some of the soldiers are wearing armor, some are only wearing military uniforms, many of the soldiers are tired and sore, they can't use any strength, and they are limping away with the support of their companions.
It's hard to believe that the 400,000 Ning army, which was menacing and invincible at the beginning, has now ended up in this field, and it doesn't look like an army, but more like a refugee fleeing the famine.
The hardships on the road are not much to say, the 20,000 exhausted Ning army finally arrived at Jiancheng before dark, and when they looked up, the gate of Jiancheng was closed, the suspension bridge was high, and the soldiers and armor on the head of the city were numerous, and they looked like they were facing a great enemy.
Seeing this scene, Zhan Wushuang, Zhan Wusuo, and Zhong Tian suddenly had a bad premonition in their hearts.
In any case, this is still Zhong Tian's territory, and he must also take out the king's driver, he turned his head sideways and said to one of the generals behind him: "General Lu Ji" "What did the last general command the king?"
"When you go to call the city, you will say that the king has arrived, and let the officials in the city go out of the city to meet you quickly."
"It's the king."
The general agreed, and urged his horse to rush out.
Because the drawbridge had been suspended, Lu Ji ran to the moat to restrain his horse, raised his eyes to look at the city, and shouted loudly: "Lord Qiu, the lord of Jiancheng, can be in the city."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone poked his head out from behind the arrow battlement of the city tower and asked, "I am Qiu Yue, who is the general outside the city?"
"Lu Ji" Lu Ji replied and said, "The king has arrived outside the city, Lord Qiu should not hurry out of the city to greet him" "Which king?"
When Lu Ji heard this, he scolded angrily, and he shouted: "Bold, you said that there are still a few kings in my Peng Kingdom" Qiu Yue laughed dryly and said: "General Lu Ji, I think you have misunderstood, as a Fengchen, I naturally only recognize the king of the Wind Country, as for the so-called Pengjun, in the eyes of this official, it is a national thief who stole the Wind Country, and this official does not admit it, General Lu Ji or please go back."
"Ahh When Lu Ji heard this, he jumped like thunder, grabbed the war gun with his hand, pointed at Qiu Yue on the head of the city, and said angrily: "Bold Qiu Yue, you actually defected to the rebels, what crime should you be guilty of?"
Qiu Yue's face sank, and he said coldly: "The Tianyuan Army is the orthodoxy of my gale and the other is the rebel Lu Ji, you go back quickly, don't use your tongue again, if not, this official will release the arrow."
"Puppet Villain Thief" Lu Ji's eyes were also red at this time, and all the words that could be thought of scolding were used.
Qiu Yue snorted coldly and shouted: "Release the arrow, shoot this thief" The surrounding officials couldn't help it for a long time, and after listening to Qiu Yue's order, everyone shouted in unison: "Release the arrows":
