Chapter 382

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Avenge the snow, and the shame of the country!"

The terrifying war drum sounded.

Looking down from the sky, the 80,000 Chu troops who attacked the city rushed towards the inner city wall like a tide.

Everyone's face is frenzied, and their hearts are full of anger.

This period of time has been too embarrassing for them.

In the battlefield of Tianxi Province, he obviously won, but he was not satisfied at all, and instead retreated.

Their previous king was murdered, and after investigation, it turned out that it was the seventh son of the previous king, Chu Gen.

The vast majority of soldiers don't know the truth, but they instinctively know it's not the truth.

shame.

Everyone felt a great shame in their hearts.

Can they blame the new king?

cannot!

These 200,000 soldiers loved this new king from the bottom of their hearts. From start to finish, his performance was perfect, brave, fearless, wise and filial.

But they have to pour out this qi, otherwise they will go crazy.

So let's pour it out from the army of Ning Zheng and Shen Lang.

No trebuchets were used.

Because it is too slow to wait for the trebuchet, and this is their own city, every house in the inner city is exquisite and beautiful, and they can't kill many enemies with the trebuchet, but smash their own city to pieces.

Charge directly, carry the siege ladder and climb straight up.

We don't believe that 200,000 people can't destroy your 9,000 people.

The mourner will win.

………………

Under the protection of Mulan and Li Qianqiu, Shen Lang stood on the top of the wall.

Chu Jun is too crazy, this morale is too amazing.

If this battle is let go, it will be dangerous.

But, had to fight.

"Kill kill kill!"

Under the city wall, the sound is shocking.

The earth trembled.

Four hundred meters away.

Three hundred meters.

Two hundred meters!

"preparation!"

"put!"

With an order, the archers on every side of the city wall started frantically shooting again.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

There are more than 7,000 archers, all of them are sharp marksmen.

A two-stone bow, a one-and-a-half stone bow.

Once again, these bows and arrows exerted amazing power.

Falling like a metal rainstorm.

The familiar scene appeared again.

Harvest life madly!

It is true that this Chu army is an elite force, much braver than the previous Chu army.

But the rain of arrows doesn't stop you from hitting you just because you're too brave.

At a distance of two hundred meters, the arrows of the Second Nirvana Army are invincible.

Within 150 meters, the arrows of the Sandman Marksman are also invincible.

Because it is impossible for such a large-scale army to be equipped with iron armor, at best it is only leather armor.

However, the leather armor could not stop the sharp arrows of Shen Lang's army.

The Chu troops who attacked the city died in pieces.

This scene is really like the wheat under the hail.

Countless casualties.

However, countless Chu troops continued to charge forward.

………………

The King of New Chu was completely stunned when he saw this scene.

In the battle report, he has seen more than once that Shen Lang's army has amazing archery skills.

But when I actually saw it, I was completely shocked.

Shen Lang, an archer, was simply a dream army.

It shoots so far, so accurate?

With such an army, the siege effect is not very great, but the defense is almost invincible.

Shooting condescendingly is a complete one-sided slaughter.

Taishi Li Xuanqi's heart was bleeding.

He knew in his heart that this battle was impossible.

But His Majesty still prefers to negotiate with Shen Lang.

This is a battle of wills, not interests.

Everyone knows that Ning Zheng and Shen Lang have no intention of occupying the capital of the Chu King at all, and they also want to return to Yue Kingdom as soon as possible.

But even going back, there will be a huge victory and glory.

He also had to force the King of Chu to bow his head, and even overwhelm Ning Qi in terms of momentum.

This start was so tragic.

"Your Majesty..." Tai Shi Li Xuanqi trembled.

The King of Chu raised his hand to stop Li Xuanqi from speaking.

Some casualties are necessary.

Although the casualties are staggering, it is absolutely impossible to retreat.

At this time, Ming Jin's withdrawal of troops was a huge blow to the morale of the Chu army.

The most important thing in an army is morale, not numbers.

King Xin Chu glanced at Shen Lang on the city wall, then jumped on his horse and rushed towards the city wall.

"A snow of national shame, revenge for snow!"

"Vengeance Snow Hate!"

The army of Chu State attacking the city suddenly went crazy.

The king actually rushed up again?

"Protect the king, protect the king!"

Not only Taishi Li Xuanqi, but the dozens of remaining generals rushed up frantically.

Your Majesty must have nothing to do.

We have lost an old king, but we have gained a brave and wise new king.

If this great king were to die in battle, then the kingdom of Chu would be completely over.

At any other time, the new King of Chu would not rush to the battlefield in person.

Because at this time his prestige is enough and he doesn't need it at all.

But at this time, he and Shen Lang had a tacit understanding, knowing that Shen Lang would never kill him.

really!

Jin Mulan, who has the strongest archery skills, shoots arrows at the King of Chu, but the performance is huge.

The picture is very shocking!

Each arrow of Mulan could kill three or four warriors of Chu State.

It even shoots people out together with their shields.

But every time she shot the arrow at King Chu, he was blocked and flew out.

He became more and more powerful.

The king of Chu galloped his horses, charging back and forth on the battlefield, frantically boosting morale.

At this moment, the soldiers who attacked the city of Chu really had a feeling that their scalps were numb and their whole body was about to burst.

Lord humiliate to death!

Are we so incompetent?

You even want His Majesty to take risks on the battlefield?

What else do we look like?

Countless Chu soldiers attacked the city even more frantically.

Completely ignoring the rain of arrows in the sky.

Big deal, big deal, big deal!

that's it!

The Chu army faced huge casualties, but still rushed under the city wall, and then desperately climbed up along the siege ladder.

It's about to hit the wall!

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The archer under Shen Lang's command exploded his archery to the extreme.

Crazy darts.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

At a distance of more than ten meters, it can really be called a hundred hits.

More tragic casualties appeared!

There was no more dirt to be seen on the entire ground, and it was all piled up with corpses.

How many casualties did the Chu army have?

do not know!

The combat effectiveness of Shen Lang's archer unit was terrifying.

Although more and more Chu troops rushed to the city wall.

But... this offensive was suppressed frantically.

"Heavy armor, heavy armor, come on!"

"Prince Guard, follow me!"

Li Xuanqi, the prince's master, personally rushed up with the most elite guards.

Hundreds of thousands of people with the strongest martial arts rushed to the front. They wore sturdy iron armor and blocked the arrows with their swords.

"Shield, shield..."

This group of elite warriors, holding incomparably thick shields in their hands, moved upward little by little.

"Crack..."

The siege ladder could not bear such a weight and broke directly.

The warriors above directly smashed down, crushing the entire Chu army to death.

However, this group of people still rushed upwards frantically.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

"Avenge the snow, and the shame of the country!"

In this way, Chu State's most elite guard officers took the lead in charging, leading the most elite troops, blocking the shocking arrow rain of Shen Lang's army, and rushing to the top of the city.

Then!

It's bloody hand-to-hand combat!

"Kill, kill, kill..."

"Break in two!"

The First Nirvana Army, against the elite Imperial Guards of Chu State.

It is simply the collision of two iron men.

Taishi Li Xuanqi fought against the sword king Li Qianqiu.

Countless Chu State masters rushed towards Shen Lang and Ning Zheng like moths to the flames.

The King of Chu didn't want to kill Ning Zheng in his heart, but these Chu masters wanted to smash Shen Lang and Ning Zheng to pieces.

But……

In front of Shen Lang, Dasha and Jin Mulan are protected.

Mulan is invincible in long-range and melee combat.

The stunning machete in her hand also has no enemy of unity.

His speed is too fast, every move is lightning fast.

It can be easily ejected nearly ten meters away.

And stupid!

More invincible!

He is alone, against Tu Da, Tu Er!

To be honest, Tu Da and Tu Er thought Dasha was a good friend and wanted to say hello before the war.

Two years ago, they even invited Dasha to go shit together. This is already a deep friendship, and they generally don't invite others to go to the toilet. Just like when you were in school, only the best classmates went to the bathroom together, didn't they?

But the atmosphere was so tragic and solemn that they didn't dare to say hello, so they just killed it.

In the battle two years ago, the two brothers had the upper hand at first, until after a few hundred moves, they lost their endurance to Dasha.

But now, Dasha has become so arrogant.

With one enemy and two, at the beginning, there is no downside at all.

After madly fighting for two or three hundred moves, Tu Da and Tu Er fell into a disadvantage.

After five hundred strokes!

Dasha pressed the two brothers to fight.

"Bang, bang..."

Two loud bangs!

The two giants Tu Da and Tu Er were smashed out by Dasha like cannonballs.

It flew directly from the top of the city, and after falling ten meters, it slammed to the ground.

Fortunately, there are corpses everywhere.

The two brothers smashed down, and the corpse below turned into mud.

And the two brothers also spit out blood.

Dasha showed mercy and didn't kill them.

………………

The martial arts of Li Xuanqi and Li Qianqiu lie in the middle.

But... Sword King Li Qianqiu still has the upper hand.

After the two fought thousands of moves, Li Xuanqi, the Grand Master of Chu State, began to gradually fall into the disadvantage.

same!

The elites of the Chu State Imperial Guard who rushed up gradually fell into the disadvantage.

The First Nirvana Army is too strong!

Their armor is invincible and indestructible.

The swords in their hands are invincible and invincible.

Their fighting will and fighting power are even stronger.

In the face of such an invincible First Nirvana Army, Chu's most elite Guard Army supported it for less than half an hour, and the situation gradually disintegrated.

Li Xuanqi couldn't help but look back at the King of Chu.

This is very dangerous!

The top masters make a move, and there can be no mistakes.

But when he turned back, Sword King Li Qianqiu stopped attacking and did not take the opportunity to kill him.

The meaning of Li Xuanqi looking back is very simple.

Your Majesty, you can call Jin Jin to withdraw your troops!

In a moment!

The King of Chu decreed: "Ming Jin withdraws his troops, Ming Jin withdraws his troops!"

The horn sounded.

Li Xuanqi led the elite imperial guards to retreat!

……………………

Today's battle, from start to finish, only took three hours!

It was over in the afternoon.

Under the city wall, on the city wall, there are countless corpses!

Casualties were unprecedented.

The tragic and tragic battle is not as good as the battle of Zhenxicheng.

But the casualties per unit time far exceeded the battle of Zhenxicheng!

"Are the casualties out?" King Xin Chu asked.

"About 30,000!" Li Xuanqi said.

The new king of Chu gritted his teeth and bleed.

Nearly 30,000 casualties? !

In just half a day, there were such heavy casualties.

Each of these soldiers is extremely valuable, and they lost 30,000 in one fell swoop.

The point is that this war is not necessary in terms of interests.

"Your Majesty, are you going to fight tomorrow?" Li Xuanqi asked.

The new king of Chu also had a headache.

Yeah, do you still want to fight?

How to keep this balance right?

How to win fame, yet let the battle end, and let Ning Zheng go back alive and compete with Ning Qi for the crown prince?

too difficult!

"If we attack the city at any cost, can we destroy Shen Lang's entire army?" asked the King of Xin Chu.

"Yes!" Li Xuanqi said: "Because their arrows are limited, this is Chu State after all."

Yep, that's the truth.

"But Your Majesty, if we really want to kill Shen Lang's army, our casualties will be very staggering." Li Xuanqi said: "His army is too strong. The key is that it is not necessary, Shen Lang is right. , Ning Zheng inherits the throne of Yue Wang, which is the most powerful for us."

The King of Chu poured a cup of tea and drank it.

"How's the morale?"

Li Xuanqi said: "Our army is still as powerful as a rainbow, and its murderous aura can be stronger. Moreover, countless rangers and young warriors in the capital have to apply to join our army. Countless people have sent food, and they will all participate in this shameful battle."

The King of Chu said: "Master, look at this situation, can I stop the battle? Do I dare to stop the battle?"

Yes, now the entire king of Chu is up and down, it can be said that they are united.

The King of Chu could not chill the hearts of the soldiers and the people.

"Continue to siege the city tomorrow. Since Shen Lang proposed a negotiated truce, he must have the best of both worlds. Let's just bury our heads in the siege."

"If he can't do anything, then he will shed the last drop of blood. At this moment, I must not fail the Chu country and the people, and I must not chill the hearts of the soldiers."

………………

next day!

The King of Chu once again ordered a siege of the city.

The fierce battle broke out again!

Today's casualties are smaller than yesterday's, but there are also nearly 20,000 casualties.

But there is also good news.

One army after another rushed to the capital to participate in this shameful battle.

It is really the Chu State, united as one, passionate and loyal, unable to live up to it.

What the hell?

While the King of Chu felt extremely relieved, he was furious.

That is at this time!

An accident happened!

In the capital of the King of Chu, a plague broke out in the army of the State of Chu.

And it's getting worse and worse.

More and more soldiers and civilians are falling ill every day.

Because it is already June, the weather is the hottest time of the year, because the battlefield is too fierce, there are too many corpses, and there are too many feces, and the plague is most likely to occur.

The plague came too hard for the fight to continue.

So, the King of Chu and Ning Zheng negotiated over the air to temporarily stop the war!

……………………

After the armistice, the King of Chu threw himself into the battle against the plague with all his heart.

He even entered the quarantine room infected with the plague many times to visit the soldiers infected with the plague, and promised to do his best to treat him and never give up on anyone.

Countless civilian soldiers were grateful and weeping, wishing to die for the king immediately.

God has eyes, we have left an old king, but such a wise new king has come.

Under the command of the King of Chu wholeheartedly, the plague was slightly brought under control.

However……

At this time, the king of Chu fell down, suddenly developed a high fever, vomited and diarrhoea, and developed abscesses on his body.

Suddenly, the soldiers of Chu State and Wanmin were almost torn apart.

Do not.

God beg you to protect our king.

We just lost our old king, we must never lose a new king again.

Incense was lit in the homes of all the people in the capital.

Countless people knelt down and kowtowed, begging for God's blessing not to take their king.

However……

The plague of the new king of Chu became more and more serious, and he was dying and his life was in danger.

It looks like it's going to fail!

I've tried countless doctors, but they can't be cured.

And at this time, there is a rush of urgency, even if you want to go to Tianya Haige to find the best doctor of medicine and Taoism, it is too late.

The King of Chu may die at any time.

Once the new king dies, it will really be a disaster, and it will be a disaster for the entire Chu country.

The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the State of Chu suddenly remembered that Shen Lang was a genius doctor.

But he is the enemy.

The enemy of life and death who burned down the Chu palace.

But no matter how big the hatred, is it worth the life of the new king?

Finally, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the State of Chu made a decision.

Ask Shen Lang to come to the rescue.

The crown prince and master Li Xuanqi personally entered the inner city and asked Shen Lang to come out to rescue the King of Chu.

Without saying a word, Shen Lang walked out of the inner city to heal the King of Chu.

This rescue was really terrifying.

The King of Chu fainted several times and his whole body festered.

There was almost no breath.

The fever is so high that ordinary people can't bear it at all.

After a day and night of treatment.

The temperature of the King of Chu dropped.

Life characteristics gradually stabilized.

At this moment, the ministers wept with joy.

Finally the sky did not fall.

After another day, the king of Chu had completely subsided his fever, and his life was saved.

Shen Lang is really a genius doctor. He had cured Zhang Chong's incurable intestinal carbuncle before, and today he has cured King Chu's plague.

Then Shen Lang didn't make any request, left directly, and returned to the inner city!

Although the King of Chu was rescued, he was still extremely weak and could not manage at all.

Moreover, the plague in the capital of the King of Chu has once again intensified.

At this time, Shen Lang came forward again.

A plague prevention manual was given to the ministers of Chu State.

And a prescription is given!

Not only that, but with the consent of the King of Chu and his ministers.

More than 100 military doctors under Shen Lang's command were wrapped tightly and walked out of the inner city, and began to treat the soldiers and civilians of Chu who were infected with the plague.

He really is a genius.

The most important thing about the plague is isolation, defense, not cure.

His epidemic prevention manual is almost perfect.

Especially the isolation method, the quicklime disinfection method, and the boiling water disinfection method almost immediately brought the plague under control and did not spread any further.

And Shen Lang is really a genius doctor. Although the soldiers and civilians infected with the plague suffered a lot of casualties, according to his prescription, many people's lives were saved.

So a weird scene happened.

The two armies of Chu and Yue, who fought to the death before, actually united and began to fight the plague together.

Many conspiracy theorists say that the plague was created by Shen Lang.

This is absurd. In order to treat the plague of Chu State's military and civilians, Shen Lang's army was originally fine, but later also contracted the plague and suffered casualties.

After 20 days of fighting.

The Chu and Yue armies finally completely suppressed this plague!

But the war is really unstoppable.

June twenty-eighth!

The King of Chu formally negotiated with Ning Zheng.

……………………

The King of Chu, who had lost a lot of weight, looked at Shen Lang with complicated eyes.

This plague was vigorous and at its peak, more than 80,000 people were infected.

In the end, about 3,000 people died.

It is a terrible number, but compared to the casualties on the battlefield, it is a small number.

A truce became a matter of course.

Even the hatred between the two armies gradually disappeared in this plague war.

"Shen Lang, if you burnt my palace, you will have to pay after all." King Chu said, "Besides, don't talk about goods worth two million gold coins. Who knows how much your goods cost?"

Shen Lang said: "Your Majesty, it is impossible to give this indemnity to Yueguo! Since His Highness Ning Zheng wants to win, he must win it completely."

King Chu said: "I don't care who gives the money, but two million gold coins are to be given to gold, which can be paid in five years."

Shen Langdao: "I can ask Tiandaohui to pay for this gold coin, but the market of Chu country has to open to Tiandaohui. I can't let Tiandaohui pay this gold in vain. They will pay two million gold coins in five years, and at least they have to earn back three hundred. Ten thousand."

The King of Chu stood on a high place, looking at the ruined palace.

"The palace is still built according to the previous construction. It is still made of wood and glazed tiles. I don't use all your messy things." The King of Chu said, "The palace of my country of Chu cannot be out of line."

Shen Lang sighed, that would be a pity.

Originally, I wanted to use the Chu Palace to make a big advertisement to promote the development of the new construction industry.

"However, the market in our country of Chu can be opened to the Heavenly Daohui." King Chu said, "I want to buy steel from you, will you sell it?"

"Sell!" Shen Lang said, "Your Majesty, glass, cigarettes, and jade bricks are all good things. Are you sure you don't want to buy them? The Chu royal family can do business with Tiandaohui and earn money from the wealthy and wealthy of the Chu country. I promise to let you in In a few years, become the richest king in the world."

The King of Chu sighed and said, "No one can stop the rich and noble family from being corrupt and degenerate. These things will come to be sold by Heaven, and I can't stop them. But...don't even think about the endorsement of the royal family of Chu for them, and as for joint-stock business, let alone do business with them. Maybe, I'll just tax it heavily."

Shen Lang smiled.

The King of Chu had some difficult words to say, but in fact, he had long since decided to introduce the Heavenly Dao Society and gradually suppress the Yinyuan Society.

Shen Lang said with a smile: "Then I believe that Tiandao will be very happy to pay this gold coin."

……………………

next day!

The King of Chu announced to revise the previous armistice agreement with Vietnam and formally signed a new armistice agreement with Ningzheng.

First, the Vietnamese army unconditionally withdrew from the capital of the king of Chu.

Second, Chu and Vietnam have completely ceased fighting, and the border has returned to the state it was two years ago.

Third, within five years, Tiandaohui will pay 2 million gold coins to help Chu State rebuild the palace.

Fourth, in order to facilitate the Tiandao Association to pay for the construction aid gold coins, the Chu State allowed the Tiandao Association to open commercial establishments in the Chu State.

After the armistice was signed!

The Chu country and the people fell into silence, neither happy nor angry.

Because of this armistice agreement, it is indeed not a victory, because Ning Zheng and Shen Lang who burned the palace were not punished.

The Vietnamese army withdrew peacefully, rather than being completely annihilated.

But, blame the king?

how is this possible?

The king has behaved very well. It is not that he is unwilling to fight, but that he cannot fight anymore.

Such a wise man, such a brave and fearless king, is not allowed to be criticized.

Moreover, this great plague has only been brought under control, but it has not yet been eradicated.

If another war breaks out and casualties occur again, the plague is likely to break out again.

Then again, in a way.

Shen Lang set fire to the Chu Palace, which was indeed a heinous crime.

However, he saved His Majesty the King of Chu again, which was not a two-way offset.

And the reason why the great plague in the capital of Chu King was brought under control this time was due to Shen Lang.

If it weren't for Shen Lang's help, the great plague in the capital of Chu did not know how much it would spread, and how many people would die tragically.

To a certain extent, he was kind to Chu State.

And there is another point. In this war, the situation of the Vietnamese army was very dangerous, but Shen Lang did not push the queen mother as a hostage from beginning to end.

Shen Lang's army pushed Chu's army down the city wall by relying on its true ability.

This army is really awesome.

Not relying on conspiracy, but relying on strength to fight, and defeated the army of Chu State for two consecutive days.

have to obey.

The strong are always admirable.

…………………………

The Queen of Chu, no, it should be the Queen Mother of Chu, and she has regained her graceful appearance.

At this time, she was dining with Shen Lang and Jin Mulan.

It turned out to be steak, five-mature steak.

Shen Lang liked it very much, and Mulan liked it very much, but Queen Chu just thought it was okay.

Why don't you eat cooked, wild people drink blood.

But still a little fresh.

Shen Lang shook the goblet and drank the red wine inside.

This is a semi-sweet wine, dry red is not difficult to brew, as long as the glucose is fermented to become the ultimate.

Shen Lang is very strange. When he drinks dry red wine, he becomes addicted and feels good. But suddenly I asked him if he was drinking dry red or sweet, and he would say sweet again.

"The Empress Dowager, today is our last meal. I hope that the past two months of getting along have not caused you great trauma." Shen Lang said, and then raised a glass to the Empress Dowager Chu.

The Queen Mother of Chu raised the glass and drank the red wine in it.

She didn't speak.

In fact, her emotions towards Shen Lang were also very complicated.

In the beginning, it was a complete hatred, wishing to peel off the skin and cramp, and smash the bones into ashes.

But later found out, Shen Lang, if you don't provoke him, he won't mess with you.

Even after getting along for a long time, you will feel his special charm.

This kind of charm will make men of the same age disgusted, or envious.

But women tend to like it very much.

Will be a very good friend when he doesn't torture you.

However, it is impossible for the Empress Dowager Chu to turn enemies into friends with him, but it is also unlikely to be regarded as an enemy of life and death.

For the benefit of Chu State, it is no longer suitable to be enemies with Ning Zheng and Shen Lang.

Ning Zheng's superior position is more beneficial to the state of Chu.

Moreover, she, the Queen Mother of Chu, from now on will live in a simple language and completely withdraw from the stage of power.

Although she survived, she lost her majesty.

Unlike the new king of Chu, she used her life to maintain the dignity of the royal family. She surrendered weakly and was paraded through the streets.

"From now on, there will be no queen mother. After meeting Wang'er, I will become a nun and pray for the past king, so as not to embarrass your majesty and the state of Chu." Empress Dowager Chu said.

"It's good to be a monk, it's good to be a monk..." Shen Lang said.

At this age, there is nothing to lose.

"Then, farewell!"

"Never see you again."

…………………………

next day!

Ning Zheng and Shen Lang led more than 7,000 troops and left the capital of Chu.

The King of Chu watched.

The Chu State and Wanmin sent them off with a look of indifference, admiration and hostility.

Silent.

The king of Chu decreed.

In the territory of Chu State, no army can stop the Vietnamese army from leaving.

However, Ning Zheng and Shen Lang had to pay three times the price to buy food and supplies.

Shen Lang readily agreed.

At this point, the war between Chu and Yue is completely over!

Shen Lang and Ning Zheng won a big victory.

On top of the miracle, another miracle was created.

And once their victory spread to the country of Yue, it was destined to completely obscure the light of the third prince, Ning Qi.

I hope that the Zhu clan, the Clan clan and other forces will not boast too much about Ning Qi's inescapable achievements, otherwise they will be completely slapped in the face.

Because the armistice agreement he signed with the King of Chu has been abandoned.

In its place was a new armistice agreement signed by Ning Zheng, which did not cede an inch of land or humiliate the country.

This is the real brilliance.

………………

Note: Today is 14,500, which is more than 1,000 words less than usual, because I'm really tired, sleep well at night, and continue to exceed 15,000 tomorrow, give me the monthly pass!
