Chapter 450
Everyone looked at the black line outside the city. There was black smoke rising into the sky. Then the earth shook. Countless cavalry could be seen slowly coming. In front of them, there were countless refugees running.

"It's finally here." Gao Shengtai thought to himself.

"Open the city gate quickly." Zhong Ling couldn't help but said: "Let the people enter the city quickly."

"Quickly, close the city gate." Princess Xiaolei retorted.

When Gao Shengtai saw this, he didn't know what to do. He could only look at Wang Yuyan and Master Kurong. He couldn't express his position at this time. Although he was the prime minister, he couldn't speak on the city wall.

Master Kurong glanced at Gao Shengtai and fell silent immediately. He was old and knew that this was not the time for him to speak. Neither of them spoke, and all the pressure was put on Wang Yuyan.

Seeing this, Wang Yuyan thought for a while and quickly made a decision, saying: "Prime Minister, everything here is left to you. We women should not interfere in important affairs of the court."

Gao Shengtai's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this. After all, she was a smart woman who knew what she should do and what she shouldn't do. It was just a pity that such a smart woman would not end well.

"I obey my orders." Gao Shengtai did not dare to neglect and responded quickly.

"Let's go! We can't stay here. Everything is decided by the Prime Minister." Wang Yuyan said lightly.Zhong Ling and the other girls still wanted to speak, but when they saw Wang Yuyan's face was cold and her eyes were flashing with cold light, she immediately stopped talking and could only follow behind and leave.

"Close the city gate." Behind them, Gao Shengtai's cold and ruthless voice came.

"Sister, there are all my people in Dali outside the city. Why should we close the city gate at this time? What if the enemy comes to kill us?"

"Once the enemy comes, they can take advantage of the situation and attack the city." Xiaolei interrupted Zhong Ling and snorted coldly: "Your kindness will cause the people in Dali City to suffer, and put our Dali royal family in danger of destruction. If you do, we will all become prisoners of the Ming Dynasty."

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter anymore. Everything will be decided by the superior." Wang Yuyan snorted coldly. She was a smart person and knew what things she should take care of and what things she couldn't take care of.

"Sister, can we hold on?" Xiaolei said suddenly.

"We must defend even if we can't. We will definitely be able to hold on until the king returns." Wang Yuyan said lightly: "Our Dali royal family was granted the title by Emperor Wu back then, and it is impossible to be destroyed."

The girls nodded, with a complex look on their faces.Just now, the girls saw the Ming Dynasty's military front, which was so majestic. When they looked at the soldiers on Dali City, they had a look of fear on their faces.

In particular, the girls knew that Baiguan's [-]-strong army had been destroyed. There were not so many soldiers and horses in Dali City that could withstand the Ming Dynasty's attack. Even with the support of Tianlong Temple, it would be very difficult to defend Dali City.

"Sister, let Zhengxing and Zhengyan leave Dali City!" Mu Wanqing said suddenly.

Duan Zhengxing and Duan Zhengyan were born to Wang Yuyan and Mu Wanqing. They were young. Mu Wanqing did not want them to die in the rebellion, so the best way was to let their two sons leave Dali City. If the two women die, at least they can save their two children.

Wang Yuyan hesitated for a while before saying, "It's too late."

Although the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty are still coming to kill, she believes that the martial arts masters of the Ming Dynasty are actually all around Dali City. If there is any movement on her side, they will be discovered by the other party. It is impossible for anyone in Dali City to leave Dali. Half a step from the city.

On the city wall, everyone looked at the soldiers and horses in the distance, and suddenly took a breath of air. The strength of the soldiers and horses was secondary. What was more important was the few masters in front, old or young, male or female, or powerful. Or because of their misty aura, these people are all innate masters.

"There are ten of them. How come there are so many innate masters in the Ming Dynasty?" Monk Ku Rong was completely shocked. His withered old face showed a look of horror, and there was a trace of despair in his heart. The gap between the two sides was really too big. , if there are two or three innate masters, Master Kurong thinks that he can still struggle, but if there are ten innate masters on the opposite side, he is not calm in his heart.

"Is this the Prime Minister of Dali, Marquis Gao, above?" A clear voice came, and a horse came slowly. The other person's face was thin, and his eyes were shining brightly.

"Your Excellency, you are the Grand Tutor of the Ming Dynasty?" Gao Shengtai also said loudly: "Why did the Grand Tutor invade our territory of Dali without any reason? Our Dali was granted a title by the emperor, and the Ming Dynasty invaded our territory without any reason? Aren't we afraid of the opposition of the people in the world?"

"Marquis Gao is joking. You Dali has blocked the territory and prevented the Ming Dynasty from returning to the throne. You want to kill me, the leader of the Ming Dynasty. Can't you let the Ming Dynasty resist?" Wang Yangming's voice spread throughout Dali City, rumbling.

"The Ming King was ordered to go to the Northern Song Dynasty to rescue the Northern Song Dynasty. Now do you want to demolish the bridge? Your King Dali is really brave. He actually offended me, the Ming Dynasty, and wanted to kill the Ming King and Gaohou. Now I lead an army of 30 people and hundreds of generals. , there are ten innate masters, countless magical transformations and psychic powers, how can Dali resist them?"

"Open the city gate, otherwise no chickens or dogs will be left." Behind Wang Yangming, bursts of roaring sounds came, and the voices of 30 soldiers were like thunder, rolling in, overwhelming the entire Dali City. "Oops!" A minister seemed to be shocked by the roar, and couldn't help but fall on the city wall, his face was pale, and his eyes were filled with fear.

Everyone looked at each other but said nothing. The other party was just timid, but this situation was normal. With an army of 30 people in front of them, plus ten innate masters, a small Dali city couldn't resist it at all.

Gao Shengtai glanced around and saw the fear on the faces of the soldiers. He immediately understood that the army had no fighting spirit, the war had been lost, and Dali City could not withstand the opponent's attack.

"Master, this matter is of great importance. I will wait until we discuss it before making any calculations. I also ask Master to retreat fifty miles. What do you think?" Gao Shengtai shouted.

"In this case, I will trust Gao Hou once." Wang Yangming smiled after hearing this, raised his riding whip with his right hand, and commanded the army to retreat slowly.

After hearing the rumbling sounds going away, everyone on the city wall suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. The 30-strong army was like a mountain, blocking the crowd. The ten innate masters were like ten great suns, reflecting the sky. It makes people feel hopeless.

Now that these people have left, everyone seems to have walked away from the battlefield, and they feel like they are surviving a disaster.

"Master Kurong, please come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to talk." Gao Shengtai looked at Master Kurong on the side and sneered in his heart. He just couldn't stand these guys. On the surface, he was hiding in the mountains and forests to cultivate, but in fact, he still paid attention to the secular world. in things.On the surface, he seems to be aloof, but in fact, he is greedier than anyone else. Just look at the gold and silver treasures brought in.

Now you are finally in trouble!The soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty are coming, and the Duan family in Dali is about to perish. The same goes for Tianlong Temple. It will be defeated sooner or later. Let's see what this old monk can do.

"Good, good." Master Kurong's face showed a sad look, and he followed him down the city wall.

"Shengping, you lead the army to guard the city gate, Dobu archers. If the enemy comes to attack, the first thing to capture is the city gate." Gao Shengtai said to the middle-aged man on the side.He is Gao Shengping, a disciple of Gao Shengtai.

"The general will understand." Gao Shengping did not dare to neglect and responded quickly.

Gao Shengtai then confidently and boldly returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion with Master Kurong. Not only him, but also the civil and military ministers in the court followed him. Everyone knew that the fate of Dali might be decided today.

In the hall, everyone knelt and sat on the soft seats in silence, no one spoke.The situation before us is before us, whether to fight or surrender, we must come up with a charter, and the person who can make the decision is in this hall.

"Prime Minister, what should we do about the current matter? Please give me some advice, Prime Minister." Monk Kurong suddenly said.

Gao Shengtai almost spit out a mouthful of blood after hearing this. Is this matter something he can decide?This country is not your own country, but your Duan family's country. How to solve it is also your Duan family's business. What does it have to do with him?

"Master, this matter is of great importance. I dare not make the decision." Gao Shengtai said without thinking.

He believed that if he surrendered, the old monk in front of him would definitely slap him to death. The other party was already infinitely close to the innate, and he was no match for him. Especially now, he still had a lot of years to live, so how could he be killed by the other party? ?

"As the Prime Minister of Dali, Prime Minister Gao is now the person with the highest position in the city. If Prime Minister Gao can't solve the problem, then who can make the decision?" Master Kurong continued to ask without any regard for his face.

"Of course it's the Dali royal family. If the Dali royal family surrenders, then surrender. If they say resist, then resist. As long as they hold out for ten days and a half, the king will probably be able to come back. At that time, it will not be too late to fight to the death." Gao Shengtai How could you be fooled?

"We are all monks. We are not in the world of mortals. We will not interfere in matters in the secular world. If the prime minister decides, we can just give him the order directly." Master Kurong still shook his head and said.

"Since the master is unwilling to say it, the truth cannot make the decision. The truth is just a minister of the Duan family and cannot make the decision for King Dali. Why not leave this matter to the queen to decide!" Gao Shengtai said without hesitation. : "No matter what decision the queen makes, I have nothing to say. I will fight to the end. Even if I surrender, I, the Gao family, will also be the retainer of the Duan family."

"Forget it! Let the queen decide on this matter!" After hearing this, Master Kurong saw that the test had nothing to do, so he could only reluctantly agree.

In fact, he knew that it was impossible for Wang Yuyan to make a decision. Unless Duan Yu returned, it would be a matter of time before Dali City was breached.

But can Duan Yu come back in time?
