Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2058: The whole city wants to surrender to the Han emperor, and the emperor shoots Yutian

A considerable number of the Zhongcang Cavalry had been confronting the Black Cavalry during the previous battle.

When the outcome of the central army battlefield was decided, the first to leave the battlefield were not only Ma Qianli who received the news, but also them.

As cavalry, their movement speed is not slow.

Therefore, after the war, Wang Yu ordered the Black Cavalry and other cavalry units to cut off the roads leading to Tianjing City as soon as possible to prevent the defeated troops on the battlefield from returning to Tianjing.

However, there were still more than 10,000 defeated soldiers who entered Tianjing before the Black Cavalry.

The leading general is not one of the top generals in Zhongcang, but he is more or less famous.

The leading general is named Lei Hou. Relying on his seniority in the army, the more than 10,000 cavalry generals, who are currently leaderless, temporarily follow him.

When they were evacuating the battlefield, they didn't think about anything else at that time. Their only thought was to escape.

However, it was when they fled back to Tianjing, temporarily escaped from danger and were able to think about their situation that they felt as if the sky had fallen.

After this defeat, Henan will belong to the Han Dynasty in the future. What should these people do?

"Boss Lei, His Majesty is dead, and the court's hundreds of thousands of troops have also fled!"

"Now, in this city, Boss Lei controls an army of more than 10,000. You are the strongest force in this city!" said a sly general.

This man's name was Ping Xian. Although the people he could control, as well as his reputation and qualifications in the army, were not as good as Lei Houlai's, they were not much different.

If he wanted to compete with Lei Hou for the control of this army, he was definitely qualified. At worst, as long as he had the intention, he could at least compete with Lei Hou.

However, from the very beginning, he showed an attitude that Lei Hou was the main one.

"Brother Ping, are you planning to suggest that Boss Lei take over Tianjing?"

"With the limited military strength we have, what's the point even if we occupy Tianjing?" a general said in horror.

Obviously, the general misunderstood Pingxian's meaning.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Ping first rolled his eyes at the general. He was not crazy, so how could he have such a stupid idea?

With such a small number of people, even if they could capture Tianjing, they would only be able to capture it for a short period of time and would not be able to stabilize the situation at all.

Not to mention, even if they took it, there were hundreds of thousands of Han soldiers outside. What could they use to defend it?
"What I mean is that Boss Lei can lead the brothers to seize Tianjing, and then use it as a stepping stone for many of our brothers to advance!"

Ping first glanced at the generals gathered around him before expressing his thoughts.

Although they were defeated generals, they still had an army in their hands. Moreover, if they could capture Tianjing, they would present it to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Apart from anything else, not only can they keep their wealth and glory, but their official positions can also be promoted.

"Pingxian, you bastard, how dare you say such treasonous words!"

"As ministers of Da Cang, how can we follow the enemy?" General Su Ding cursed.

Even at this time, there are still some people who care about Cang Shi.

Of course, it has come to this point, at least in this small force, such people are definitely a minority, and a very small minority at that.

Therefore, after Su Ding's cursing, the atmosphere among these generals suddenly became quiet, and several of them subconsciously looked at Su Ding with inexplicable eyes.

"Brother Su is right. We are the generals of Da Cang..."

After hearing what Lei Hou said, Su Ding's expression began to ease a little. At least, at present, they were led by Lei Hou, and as long as Lei Hou had not surrendered to the enemy, everything could still be turned around.

However, in the middle of Lei Houzheng's speech, Su Ding felt a sudden pain in his lower back, and the world in his eyes began to lose its luster.

"Brother Su, although we are generals of Da Cang, Da Cang is going to be destroyed eventually!" Lei Hou sighed.

He is just an ordinary person, a common man in troubled times. Now, he said that all he wants is to survive.

With the power they have, there is no possibility of resisting.

He thought about it and realized that the only chance to survive was just as Ping Xian had said. In fact, not only could they survive, but they could also live a better life.

However, Su Ding just wanted to block their way.

If that's the case, don't blame him for being cruel and ruthless.

"Boss Lei, the most urgent task is to control a few city gates first! Guard the city defenses!"

"Secondly, contact General Lei Bo and gather as many forces as possible to capture Tianjing as soon as possible!"

"Only by taking Tianjing can we brothers be valuable to the Han Dynasty!" Pingxian ignored the dead Su Ding and spoke directly.

Since he chose to push Lei Hou out as their representative instead of stepping out to be this person himself, he naturally had some confidence in Lei Hou's character.

Therefore, from the very beginning, he did not believe that Lei Hou was the kind of person who would risk his life for Da Cang.

Sure enough, when Su Ding stepped forward to block their way, Lei Hou signaled his men to take action and killed Su Ding very easily.

In fact, even if Lei Hou didn't take action, Ping Xian would definitely take action.

It's a matter of life and death. Whoever dares to stand in his way will die!
Moreover, Lei Hou's ruthlessness towards Su Ding, in which he took his life without saying a word, also shocked the other people present.

The Lei Bo mentioned by Ping Xian is the second reason why Ping Xian chose to push Lei Hou forward as their representative.

When their elite troops left the city for the decisive battle, there were still more than 10,000 defenders in the city, and a part of these 10,000 people were actually controlled by Lei Hou's brother Lei Bo.

As long as they can use this relationship to bring Lei Bo over, their next plan will be more successful.

After all, they wanted to take over Tianjing and use it as a bargaining chip to present to the Han Dynasty. As a stepping stone to their advancement, the first thing they naturally had to do was to control Tianjing in their hands.

Lei Bo was not a local figure, but a systemic figure. He was a general under Yuan Shu during the Three Kingdoms period.

He himself had no great talent, so he was not taken out to participate in this decisive battle, but stayed to guard Tianjing. One third of the defenders in the city were controlled by Lei Bo.

Only by uniting Lei Bo's forces will they have the confidence to recruit the other heavy troops.

"Okay, Brother Ping, I'll leave the task of controlling the city gate to you!"

"I'll contact my brother and recruit the other soldiers in the city as soon as possible!"

Although Lei Hou was not as cunning as Ping Xian, he knew that Ping Xian pushed him out so that he could serve as the target in the front to attract fire.

However, he didn't care about that.

Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. If he can really accomplish this, his gains will definitely be much greater than Ping Xian's.

At present, at least, he and Pingxian are on the same front in controlling Tianjing and joining the Han Dynasty. Under this premise, that is enough.

Soon, Lei Hou contacted Lei Bo.

And when he really met Lei Bo, he realized that the city of Tianjing was also in chaos.

The two places, the Imperial Palace and the Nangong Mansion, are now almost a mess.

Although they had 10,000 defenders in the city, it was impossible to transfer all 10,000 people to the palace. Other places also had to be watched, especially at this time, when there were riots everywhere in the city.

Whether it was the warriors coming from the north or those released by the Ministry of Justice, they were not so honest. Especially, the prisoners in the Heavenly Prison were armed in advance when they were released by the Ministry of Justice.

Some of the troops in the city must also quell the scattered small-scale chaos in various parts of the city.

Therefore, there were actually only less than three thousand people who could be transferred to the palace.

Adding the one thousand people in the palace itself, there are a total of four thousand people.

The Han side already had more than a thousand constables from various government offices in the city, and there were also a large number of northern warriors and Luowang assassins. After adding up all the scattered people, they could barely gather nearly two thousand people.

The constables, the northern warriors, and the Luowang killers were not good at fighting on the battlefield, but now, the battlefield was indeed inside the imperial palace.

However, the war started within the palace, so the environment couldn't really be considered a battlefield fight.

Fighting in this kind of environment is more adept for constables, yamen runners, northern warriors and Luowang killers.

Therefore, although the number of people on the Han side is small, it is not possible to pacify Da Cang so quickly.

As for the city, it was in even greater chaos at this time.

The prisoners who were released from the Sky Prison were armed and, under the current guidance, created chaos everywhere in the city.

Although these people are just a motley crowd, under such circumstances, the troops they have are simply stretched to the limit and they are exhausted.

The only place where Da Cang has an advantage is the Nangong mansion.

The various schools of thought and those in the major imperial courts were, firstly, few in number, and secondly, each had their own ideas and no one listened to anyone else.

In addition, the Nangong family has a strong foundation, so when the fight really starts, it is almost one-sided.

But at this moment, the big man also took action.

In Tianjing, in addition to the seven celestial beings in the worship hall and the demon celestial being Xiang Yutian who was forcibly recruited by the court, there are two more people. One of them is the former Western Rong celestial being, now the Garuda Saint Lucifer, one of the eight guardian celestial beings of Mahayana Buddhism.

The people in front were having a great time fighting, but Lucifer took this opportunity to enter Nangong's backyard and started killing people.

Of course, although he went on a killing spree, Lucifer did not attack women, the elderly, or the young.

But that doesn't mean Lucifer is kind-hearted. Given his personality, he wouldn't even blink an eye even if he really attacked women, the elderly, or children.

Lucifer completely broke through his mind through the magic path and thus improved his strength to a higher level. In other words, in his cognition, the magic path is the right path. How could such a person be merciful?

Not attacking women, the elderly and the young is purely for the sake of the Han Dynasty's reputation.

In the future, the Han Dynasty could execute the entire Nangong family and publicly execute them. However, this is different from sending a master to directly wipe out the family.

The only celestial being of the Nangong family went to the palace, and most of the Nangong family's defensive forces were also fighting in the front. At this time, Lucifer entered the Nangong family. In particular, he did not fight head-on with the Nangong family's guardian forces, but tried to avoid them and specifically fight those in power in the Nangong family.

Especially, Lucifer is quite powerful in this aspect. If he doesn't take the initiative to fight with the guardian forces of the Nangong family, those people really can't stop him.

In this way, a considerable number of Nangong family's leaders were killed in a short period of time.

When the news reached the palace, the old man of the Nangong family, who was fighting Xiang Yutian, could no longer sit still.

Even though there are twenty celestial beings fighting in the palace, this is definitely the most relaxed place for him.

There was no other reason. Xiang Yutian, who fought with him, was summoned by the imperial court.

Such people would only make symbolic contributions, but would not risk their lives for a big man.

If Xiang Yutian didn't risk his life, then the old celestial being of the Nangong family certainly wouldn't risk his life either. They were both in the early stage of celestial being, if he forced the other party to risk his life, would he feel good?
On the other hand, as for the other battle groups, the two who served Da Cang might not risk their lives, but the great celestial beings of the Huangfu family would definitely fight to the death. Eunuch Hai, who was born a eunuch, was not a die-hard fan of Huangfu Guyuan, but he was a die-hard fan of the royal family, and he would also fight to the death.

As a result, most of the combat groups over there were determined to kill the other side, and were not afraid of fighting to the death with the other side.

After Nangong Laotian received news that something unexpected had happened at the Nangong family, his instinct was to leave. However, Xiang Yutian was unwilling to let him leave.

If he were really allowed to leave, he would go and fight with other celestial beings in Da Cang.

Rather than risking his life over there, he would certainly prefer to water ski here with this old man from the Nangong family.

And at this moment, Huangtian, the last person who had been guarding the palace, finally took action.

Before Huang Tian took action, he had to wait and see what the various schools of thought and major courts in the city would do. Now that these people have come forward, there is no need for him to wait any longer.

In fact, these people were eyeing the Nangong family and Huangtian was also quite anxious about this matter.

After the conflict with Tianshi Dao, the Nangong family completely stood on the side of Zhongcang. With such a powerful support, Huangtian was certainly not happy, and he had no problems.

In particular, they were also not happy that the Nangong family had anything to do with the demonic disaster!
