Chapter 522 Capture the Rebels
"Ruan Youyi, you conspired with me for great things, I will definitely hand over all my property to you, and sit with you in the world!"

The third prince, Ruan Phuc, was kidnapped and brought in front of the leader of the rebel army, Ruan Youyi, and he still shouted unwillingly.

"Ahem, you don't seem to put our Huaxia Kyushu Army in your eyes, and you don't even bribe us." Sun Xu brought the expeditionary army over and teased.

Under the ferocious attack of the rebel army led by Ruan Youyi, Fuchun City fell quickly.In fact, the elite defending Fuchun City are just a few hundred confidantes of Ruan Fuming, and the rest are recruits with low morale.After Ruan Youyi led the soldiers to open a small gap, the rebel army quickly collapsed. Seeing that they were desperate, some rebel officers simply turned against Ruan Phucen, which accelerated the collapse of the rebel army.

"You Kyushu Army... If I become the new Lord Ruan, if you want money and land, I will give it to you even if you want Fuchun City!" Ruan Fuming saw the more powerful Kyushu Army officer coming, kneeling Kneeling and walking on the ground, trying to get a chance.

"Ruan Youyi, did you hear that he said that if our Kyushu army supports him, he can give us any money and land we want, where is your master Ruan?" Sun Xu asked.

"General Sun, don't be joking. Now we are dealing with the rebels very seriously. This thief betrayed the lord. It is not a pity to die. Can you expect him to promise you?" Ruan Youyi asked.

"No!" Ruan Fuming shouted, "I am the third son of the Ruan family. My eldest brother has died of illness, and my second brother was also stabbed by an assassin. Now I am the only one who is qualified to inherit the throne, otherwise the Ruan family will be extinct. It will never end!"

Sun Xu heard Ruan Fuming's words from the side, and couldn't help interjecting: "Your second brother will be stabbed by this assassin by such a coincidence? And how did your elder brother die of illness? Think carefully, the beneficiaries of these things are you , could it be you who did it?"

"No, elder brother died of illness himself, not me!" Ruan Fuming shouted.

"Since the eldest prince was not killed by you, then you have admitted that you were responsible for the assassination of His Royal Highness the second prince." Ruan Youyi, who was at the side, heard Ruan Fuming's inadvertent leak, and his expression changed drastically.

He didn't expect Ruan Fuming to be so ruthless. For the sake of inheritance, he even dared to kill his elder brother, and even colluded with members of the Zheng family. It can be said to be a devastating blow to the entire Ruan family.

"This is a last resort, who let those people stand in front of me! Why am I the smartest and most capable of all my brothers, but I can't inherit the throne because I am the youngest! Is it because I was born younger than the two of them?" It’s too late for the waste, so can I just bow down in front of them forever?! I’m not reconciled!” Seeing that he couldn’t hide his assassination of the second prince Ruan Fulan, Ruan Fu became hysterical unwillingly, his eyes bulged, full of unwillingness.

"A defeated general, how can you speak bravely? If you are really capable, then it wouldn't be Ruan Fulan who went to the defense line of Changde Base to protect the homeland." Sun Xu kicked Ruan Fuming over politely.

Ruan Fuming was like a wrapped rice dumpling, he was kicked by Sun Xu and fell heavily to the ground, in a state of embarrassment.The other generals and advisers of the rebel army who were captured or surrendered held their breaths, and no one dared to stand up and speak for the man who was about to be charged with treason.

Ruan Youyi was a little upset at the side, this is the third son of their Ruan family, even if they betrayed the Ruan family, they should be executed by the Ruan family, but being kicked over by an outsider in front of everyone is really detrimental to Ruan the face of home.

"General Sun, we will leave this person to us, thank you for your help." Ruan Youyi hurriedly asked the soldiers to take this shameful guy Ruan Fuming down.

No matter how hard Ruan Phuc struggled, it was useless, because as soon as he fell, those accomplices would scramble to reveal the evidence of his rebellion.

"There's really no need to keep such scum, it's a waste of food to be imprisoned." Seeing that Ruan Youyi didn't kill Ruan Fuming on the spot, Sun Xu said.

"Only the Lord has the power to dispose of him. As subordinates, we must be the most loyal servants of the Lord." Ruan Youyi said, "General Sun, your army is exhausted. Please rest in the south of the city for now. We still need to repair the troops in the city." It may take some time for the rebels to clean up and rectify, and then send troops to welcome the return of the Lord." Ruan Youyi said.

"It's okay, you can go to work, but I hope our soldiers can have a warm dinner. It's getting late now." Sun Xu waved his hand and led the Kyushu Army to station on the spot in Nancheng, which had been washed by the battlefield.

The soldiers of the Kyushu Army didn't even look at the rebel matchlock guns, bows, arrows and broadswords scattered in Nancheng. In their eyes, these weapons that had been eliminated by the Kyushu Army for an unknown number of generations were of no value at all. The rebels themselves have cleaned up their battlefields.

"Master Ruan Youyi, these Kyushu troops have asked us for so many benefits. They hid behind each other during the battle, and they were reluctant to send a little soldier to charge with us when they were attacking the city. They really missed the benefits we gave them. Why don't we recover Fuchun City by ourselves." Some small leaders in the rebel army were dissatisfied with the superior attitude of the Kyushu Army.

"Do you think that without the accurate artillery of the Kyushu Army, we would have captured Fuchun City so easily? Their artillery is obviously more powerful than ours. With twenty artillery pieces, it is more powerful than the three we bought from them." The power of the ten cannons, the gaps in the two sections of the city wall and the drawbridge are the results of their cannons, and most of our soldiers are just wasting shells there. How stupid!" Ruan Youyi's expression turned sour after Sun Xu took his men away, It was like a different person, "Kyushu Army, I really don't know if I did something wrong. I led a tiger to drive away hungry wolves. Maybe I was playing with fire."

The residents in Fuchun City shut their doors and windows tightly because of the battle that broke out in the city where they lived, and did not come out again until the sound of artillery and shouts of killing gradually disappeared.They found a troop wearing a military uniform they had never seen before appeared in the Nancheng area, and these people were full of energy, and they did not experience the fatigue of war at all.

"How about our casualties?" Sun Xu asked about the casualties of the expedition team after he settled the troops.

"Uh, because we didn't participate in the siege, no soldiers were killed in battle, the only casualty...a gunner sprained his waist while carrying the shells..." said the officer in charge of counting the casualties.

"Tell him to cultivate well, and write a review by the way. Really, he ruined the perfect battle." Sun Xu said, "In addition, let people collect maps or information of Fuchun City in the city, maybe someday in the future We'll use it."
