The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 788: Heirloom, the Book of Release of Slaves!
The cavalry is marching forward in the rugged mountains and forests.
The towering banner swayed in the wind, and the sound of bells continued to be heard.

"alert!"

With a roar, the dragon-like soldiers and horses stopped immediately.

Deng Qiang raised his arm and looked around and asked, "Have the scouts observed the front?"

"Reporting to the general, the scouts have already patrolled!"

When he came to Deng Qiang and spoke, the scout captain immediately explained,
"I always feel a little uneasy about sending someone there again!"

Deng Qiang spoke to the deputy general beside him with a serious face.
When the scouts set out again and arrived at the forest, they saw the Goguryeo people holding longbows waiting for them.

"Kill! Kill these invaders!"

Seeing the scouts who had not escaped the patrol, the Goguryeo people immediately roared.

But just as the roar was deafening, Deng Qiang squinted his eyes and said, "Kill them all!"

"Yes, General!"

Hearing Deng Qiang's words, the deputy general behind him immediately led his troops forward.

As the brutal killing unfolded, the Chiliang Army in the rear began to mock with a look of sarcasm on their faces.

"Tell me, are these Goguryeo people crazy? We are here to save them!"

"Yes, our general is so kind! He even freed many slaves!"

"Look at those high-ranking officials of Goguryeo. They all have hundreds or even thousands of maids. Our general is still the best!"

"Yes, we have a limit here, each person can be rewarded ten places."

While the veterans in the rear were joking, they saw that the battle in the front had ended.
When the sweaty scout came to the warhorse, he immediately knelt on one knee and said, "General, I failed to do my job well and let these stray soldiers escape the search!"

"Snapped!"

With a whip on the face of the scout, Deng Qiang shouted angrily: "Do you know how many brothers will be killed by your dereliction of duty?"

"I know I am wrong, and I am willing to be punished by military law!"

With his hands clasped, the scout commander immediately lowered his head.
Because as the highest commander of the scout battalion, he failed to find the ambush right under his nose, which was a complete dereliction of duty.

"Demoted to a centurion, you have to make up for your crime and make meritorious contributions. If you continue to commit crimes, military law will show no mercy!"

Scolding the other party, Deng Qiang couldn't help but become serious.

"Yes, General!"

Standing up, the captain of the scout camp immediately nodded and replied,
As the army continued to move forward, they saw that the Goguryeo soldiers who had just been hiding in the mountains preparing for an ambush had already been pinned to the sides of the road.

Looking at this scene, the soldiers of the Chiliang Army did not react at all, and even felt that the scout camp was not ruthless enough.

After all, if we let them come, these people will probably be chopped down twice!
How dare you ambush the Chiliang Army? Aren’t you tired of living?

Half a month later, in the Goguryeo royal city, everyone in the palace panicked as they watched the news of the fall continue to come in.
Because the Chiliang Army is not here to threaten them, but to destroy their country!
"How should this matter be handled? Tell me!"

Looking at the ministers below, the King of Goguryeo couldn't help but roar at this moment.

Because in the past, they quarreled a lot during the court affairs, but why did they all stop talking when blood was shed?
"My king, I think it's better to cede the land now!"

Looking at the King of Goguryeo above, a minister couldn't help but step forward and speak, his eyes full of seriousness, because they were sure to lose the battle. After all, there were only 10,000 Chiliang troops, who had successively defeated 30,000 Goguryeo troops, and there were still 50,000 troops to support the king. How could they still fight?
The people in Goguryeo were living well, so of course everyone was willing to come to the rescue, but the problem was that these 50,000 soldiers who came to rescue the king were all captured men, and when they encountered the Chiliang Army, most of them fled before the battle even started!

After all, in the eyes of the people of Goguryeo, the Chiliang Army was like a devil!

"Cede land? Is this how you serve Goguryeo? Now let me cede land!"

The King of Goguryeo almost vomited blood when he heard this.
When the Chiliang Army didn't attack us, each of you wanted to go to Liaodong to tear off a piece of meat. Now that they have come, you have even chosen the way to surrender!
Looking at the appearance of the King of Goguryeo, the military officers beside him all lowered their heads.
Because their most courageous man had already fallen in the battle with the Chiliang Army.
And they were sent back by the other side in the name of Warriors.

But being a warrior requires courage. After all, even his head has been chopped off and there are countless arrows on his body. Who would dare to go?

In the capital of Goguryeo, the drums of war were beating.

When the Chiliang Army began to gather in large numbers, the entire royal city was surrounded.

Riding on his warhorse, Zhang Cheng raised his arms high.
Accompanied by thousands of shouts, the deafening sound shook the sky.
"General, the Goguryeo royal city is easy to defend but difficult to attack. How about we wait for surrender?"

When he came to Zhang Cheng's side, Deng Qiang immediately spoke up.
"Pass the order down. If you don't surrender, all the people in the city, young and old, will be reduced to slaves!"

Zhang Cheng spoke calmly, squinting his eyes, because the Liaodong war had come to an end.

He originally thought that Goguryeo would be difficult to defeat, but he did not expect that the reality was even more outrageous than he thought, because many people surrendered before the battle even started!

I really don’t know how the Goguryeo royal family played the game!

"General, General, I have something important to report. I know a small path that leads to the royal city!"

Just as Zhang Cheng was waiting for Deng Qiang to deliver a message, he saw a Goguryeo slave being brought back.

Looking at the scout captain with a wound on his cheek, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Did you bring this person here?"

"General, this person said he had information, so I brought it to you!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the scout captain nodded immediately, indicating that he had already searched him.

However, facing the vigilance of the scout captain, Zhang Cheng didn't care at all. After all, except for the deputy commander of the Qihuo Army, Zhang Cheng had never encountered anyone who could kill him within seven steps.

Lu Yan: I can kill you even from seven steps away!
Zhang Cheng: Come here, come here!

"Have you checked it?"

Looking at the scout commander, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but become serious.
"The brothers from the scout camp have already gone there, and will report back soon!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, the scout captain couldn't help but raise his head, and the scar on his face looked even more hideous.
Soon, Deng Qiang came back and told Zhang Cheng the bad news that the King of Goguryeo refused to surrender.

Hearing this, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but sneer: "Not surrendering? Then I came here for nothing, right?"

"Reporting to the general, I have already found out the path to the royal city!"

Quickly returning to Zhang Cheng, a scout dismounted and reported,
Hearing this, Zhang Cheng looked at the slave who came to surrender and said, "Give him a document of release! A thousand gold coins!"

"Thank you, General. Thank you, General. I will pass it down as a family heirloom!"

The slave looked at Zhang Cheng with gratitude. Hearing these words, he immediately became excited.
Because once he is freed from slavery, he can be like a human being!
However, Zhang Cheng did not tell the slave in front of him that even with the document of release, he would still have to work like a slave for the Chiliang Army in the future.
But seeing how happy he was, Zhang Cheng didn't say anything.

After all, it's just a document. In his eyes, it's just a matter of stamping!
But Mr. Zhang had no idea that this document of slave release would actually become a family heirloom a thousand years later!
Zhang Cheng:.
Slave Ancestors:.
Someone: My ancestors were slaves, how is this possible, Siba!
