Before the fast horse returned, the emperor's reply was sent to the king of war in advance with a letter eagle.Feng Tianzhan saw the emperor's reply, and didn't say anything, only lightly ordered to the soldiers on the left and right, "Siege the city." ”Besiege?
The left and right generals were obviously a little surprised.Empress Qinglan's peace conditions are so straightforward and humble that they are actually equivalent to surrender, but the additional condition is that the emperor marries Empress Qinglan, which is the last trace of dignity that the empress seeks for herself and the Qinglan royal family.However, after reading the reply of the Son of Heaven, the king of war ordered the siege of the city.Does this mean that the emperor did not promise to marry the empress?
The generals were a little surprised and puzzled, but then they remembered the rumors that the emperor favored the queen alone, and seemed to feel ......
Nothing incomprehensible.The empress of a country once represented the strength of a country, if she can marry her, she will undoubtedly get the entire Qinglan, but now, the army of the king of war can capture the entire Qinglan without much effort, why should the emperor do this more and marry a woman he doesn't like?
Moreover, that woman had provoked and offended His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress Mother three times and twice.An empress facing the death of the country, in the final analysis, is just a woman.So the generals knew it.However, Feng Tianzhan had only one idea at this time, Feng Qi's will was not allowed to be questioned and changed by anyone - to send the two people who died after the destruction of the country, Jimo Qingyi and Ye Lintian, to him as prisoners.This doesn't need to be asked, just follow suit.Therefore, whether it is Empress Qinglan or Donghua Night Lintian, there is only one ending, they don't have to pay attention to any conditions they put forward for peace, and Fengqi will not agree.The ladder was erected on the city wall, and the army began to attack the city, and the dense soldiers were like Teng Man, which was daunting from a distance, and under the stubborn resistance of the demoralized Qinglan defenders, the 200,000 troops easily broke through the city.The gates were wide open, and the army marched in.Along the way, although the Qinglan army has long been disbanded, but because the king of war has a way to march, it is only a few hundred people who have lost hundreds of people with an army of 200,000 until they come to the city.And such a one-sided victory was a result that the soldiers had never thought of before.The army broke through the last obstacle of Qinglan, the people in the city panicked, everyone gathered together, knelt on the ground, and watched in horror as if a steady stream of iron horses passed neatly in front of them, the iron-blooded military might, the awe-inspiring momentum, made these people who were at the feet of the Son of Heaven, who had long been accustomed to comfort, feel desperate and uneasy.They could almost fully imagine the slaughter of the city by the army in the near future, the tragic death of the helpless chickens under the long sword and bow, the cruelty of the weak women at the hands of the fierce jackals, and the miserable weeping of the young children......
And all of this is because the empress sisters offended His Majesty the Emperor of Feng Cang, and all of them were innocent and brought this devastating disaster.The army approached the palace, and the empress, who had no way to escape, led hundreds of civil and military officials to stand outside the Zhengyang Palace, and on the huge square, all the officials and magnates of Qinglan were all present, including the empress's uncles and sisters, as well as the young royal children, and the faces of the ladies showed the pale and frightened faces of frightened birds.The child suppressed his crying and did not dare to make a sound, for fear of angering these devilish generals and incurring his own death.The army stayed outside the palace, Feng Tianzhan only brought three thousand elite soldiers into the palace, as if he didn't see the fear on the faces of the emperor's relatives and high-ranking officials who were usually majestic, and the king of war who was standing on the horse looked at everyone expressionlessly, and only said lightly, "Submit the surrender letter, the empress will be captured, and all the other people, including the Qinglan people outside, can get a way out." ”Long before the start of the war, the king of war issued a death order to all soldiers, no one is allowed to harass the people, no one is allowed to harm the unarmed innocent, except for the army, and no one is allowed to burn, kill, and plunder in any city of Qinglan at will, and those who violate military law will be dealt with.However, because the speed of the army breaking through the city was too fast, these news had not yet had time to reach the capital, so at this time, hearing the personal promise of the war king, the tense heartstrings of the imperial officials present seemed to be loosened all of a sudden, and the legs and feet were soft, and in this cold winter, there was a cold sweat on the back and a flash.In addition to being frightened, a glimmer of hope finally arose in my heart.As a minister of the dead country, as long as he can save his life, he is already lucky.From the moment the news of the army's siege of the city reached the palace, the empress had already determined that Feng Qi did not care at all about her suing for peace with the power of a country, and from beginning to end, he never took her, the empress of a country, in his eyes.What's more, maybe he has never treated her as a woman, otherwise, how can he bear it, how can he be willing to let her personally experience the pain of broken mountains and rivers and the shame of losing the country?
Surrender willingly.Oh, his meaning has been clearly expressed, exchanging her humiliation for the safety of the entire Qinglan people, the king of the dead country is an unchangeable ending for her, but in the end, he still wants to force her to make a choice between her own dignity and the fate of her people?
Jimo Qingyi knew very well that her ministers and people were complaining and abusing in their hearts at this time, thinking that she, the empress, was the culprit who caused their misery, and now that she was exchanging her for everyone's survival, they must have thought that this was a bargain, right?
As long as the empress, she will be captured.Jimo Qingyi raised his head, and the man sitting on the horse calmly looked calm, "This is Fengqi's condition?"
”So far, she has not been too frightened, anyway, the worst outcome has already arrived, fear or anxiety is meaningless, she can face it calmly.However, in the next moment, she found that her so-called calm and calmness, once she was involved with Feng Qi, would become vulnerable in an instant."
It's not."
War King Jian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, as if he didn't understand what the empress meant, "This general is in accordance with the emperor's order, and must let the empress and the Donghua emperor appear in front of him as prisoners. ”As soon as these words came out, Mo Qingyi stumbled under his feet, and his face was as white as snow in an instant.Originally......
It's her own affection again, how could Feng Qi think that one of her lives can be worth millions of people in Qinglan?
Let go of the people and the officials, but he doesn't like to kill innocents indiscriminately.
