Chapter 663 Surrender to Live, Refusal to Die (First Update)
In order to prevent the enemy from attacking the city, Dacheng Mountain City was divided into multiple peaks, using the structure of a small city surrounded by a big city. The south gate captured by Zhao Jun was the strongest, but there were still several gates after that.

After two city gates were breached by Zhao Jun in a row, in order to prevent the soldiers from getting in, Gao Jianwu immediately ordered the soldiers to close the gate leading to the main peak, where the Koguryo royal family is located.There were only two to three hundred guards on the main peak, but they were all Gao Jianwu's most trusted soldiers. Not long after the iron gate was closed, countless Goguryeo soldiers who rushed up the mountain road also arrived.

Under the light of the torches in front of the city gate, these soldiers kept beating the city gate, crying and begging to open the city gate to let them in.

The copper nails on the city gate slammed, and the guards on the tower shouted to stop the Goguryeo soldiers. It wasn't because they were cruel, they really couldn't tell whether these soldiers had mixed with Zhao Jun.

The Goguryeo general on the city gate shouted towards the city: "Coward, kill me and take back the lost city gate instead of gathering here."

No matter how the Goguryeo general scolded, the soldiers below would not leave.

At this time, there were killing sounds all over the mountain, and all the soldiers looked down from the top of the mountain, but they saw that the torches were brightly lit under the mountain city of Dacheng. His legs trembled when he saw it.

Zhao Jun's reinforcements arrived, and the Goguryeo soldiers gradually couldn't resist the fierce battle under the mountain city.

"Let us in!"

"Let us in!"

Outside the gate, the Goguryeo soldiers frantically hammered on the gate, but the city gate still did not respond.The sound of vigorous footsteps and the sound of a long whistle from the foot of the mountain indicated that Zhao Jun was about to attack.

This sound made the Koguryo soldiers gathered at the city gate even more panicked.

"Bastard, the Zhao army is attacking, you go back to me, guard the city gate, and protect the king!" The Goguryeo general shouted.

Seeing that there was no hope of opening the city, the soldiers were also desperate, so they built adult ladders to climb up the city wall with bare hands.

"coward!"

The Goguryeo general drew his sword from his waist, and just as a Goguryeo soldier put his hand on the crenel, the opponent cut off with a sword.

"Ah!" With a sharp scream, the soldier fell down the city wall, leaving one hand on the crenel.

The Koguryo soldiers under the city wall looked at this scene and glared at the general.

"Anyone else like this will end up like this." The Goguryeo general shouted angrily.

"There is no way for the king to be honored!"

"Dark Lord!"

"Dark Lord!"

At this time, the Goguryeo soldiers under the city burst into such angry shouts.It turned out that Gao Tao had a stroke in Goguryeo, and when he saw this scene, he took the opportunity to stir up trouble.

Originally, the Goguryeo people had a clear distinction between superiors and inferiors, and no one dared to challenge the authority of the royal family, but at this time, their lives were hanging by a thread, and some people took the opportunity to encourage them to take the lead.There were hundreds of Goguryeo soldiers under the city wall. At first, only one or two shouted, but later it became dozens of people, and finally there were hundreds of them. All the Goguryeo soldiers roared at the city gate.

"Dark Lord!"

"No Dao Faint Lord!"

"I will never sacrifice my life for you."

Countless soldiers pointed at the top of the city and began to curse. Even Gao Jianwu, who was behind him in the palace, was trembling uncontrollably.

"You bastard!" The city chief scolded, "You traitors, what's the use of staying here, kill me!"

After finishing speaking, the Koguryo soldiers at the top of the city shot arrows down the city!

Dozens of Koguryo soldiers who rushed under the city wall were all shot to death by arrows.

The Goguryeo soldiers under the city were stunned by this bloody suppression. At this time, someone said: "This man wants to kill us all, so we simply surrendered Zhao Jun, and then we will divide this man into five horses."

"drop!"

A Goguryeo soldier threw all the weapons in his hand to the ground.

Then with a bang, everyone lost their weapons. "You!" The Goguryeo general on the top of the city was speechless when he saw it.

When General Xue Wanche of the Wuwei Army arrived, he saw that the city was full of soldiers from Goguryeo.Xue Wanche smiled and said to the left and right generals: "Brothers did a good job."

"Didn't you entrust the majesty of General Xue?"

"Wrong, all this is the result of His Majesty's plan," Xue Wanche smiled, shook his horsewhip and said, "Where is King Goguryeo? Is he dead at this moment? Is he alive?"

The general on the side clasped his fists and replied: "Now the last Goguryeo soldiers have retreated to the gate of the main peak to guard. The King of Goguryeo must be here. As for whether they are dead or alive, the last general doesn't know."

"Go, go up and have a look, His Majesty has ordered that it is best to live." After saying that, Xue Wanche flung his cloak and strode up the mountain.The generals hurriedly followed behind him.

When Xue Wanche came to the main peak city gate, he saw a pile of dead bodies in front of the gate.Xue Wanche frowned, everyone knew that Xue Wanche had always loved cleanliness, and someone dragged the corpse away right away.

Xue Wanche walked a few steps ahead and shouted towards the city gate: "Is King Rongliu there? On behalf of our lord, His Majesty Zhao Huang, I have a few words to say to King Rongliu."

"My king is also the one you want to see. If you have anything to say, tell me." The city gate replied.

Xue Wanche sneered and said, "It's already at this time, and I'm still stubborn. If you don't want to talk about it, it's okay, we'll call in and meet to talk about it."

After hearing Xue Wanche's words, there was a commotion in the city.Finally, someone at the city gate replied: "Wait a minute, I will inform you first."

"Then hurry up, my patience is very limited." Xue Wanche said.

After a while, a young man wearing a white crown and gold belt appeared on the top of the city tower.Xue Wanche asked Gao Tao to translate for him. Gao Tao asked in Goguryeo, "Is your Excellency King Rongliu? King Zhao invited you to meet him."

The man said: "Thank you King Zhao for your kindness, but the armored soldiers were in front, but Gu did not dare to go down to the city. Since Gu came to the throne, he has worked diligently, loved the people, and made good friends with his neighbors. I, Goguryeo, have no harm to Zhao State, but King Zhao sent troops to attack for no reason. What is the reason for this?"

Xue Wanche snorted and said, "Are you really ignorant or not? Last year when you and other small countries took advantage of our lord to attack the Central Plains, they invaded the country and killed more than [-] soldiers and civilians. Is this what you said is harmless?"

The man said in surprise: "I don't know that I don't know. The minister Yuan Gai Suwen has always been in charge of the affairs of the northern border. This matter must be his own decision. If King Zhao can withdraw his troops and return my people, I can severely blame Yuan Gai Suwen, and return Zhao Guo justice for this matter."

Hearing the other party's words, Xue Wanche looked up to the sky and laughed, and Zhao Jun's generals and soldiers also laughed.

Gao Jianwu said: "I treat Shangguo with courtesy, why do you bully me like this?"

Xue Wanche pointed at Gao Jianwu and said, "I laugh at you for not knowing what is good or bad. Now that our army is approaching the city, your life is in our hands, and you still have to bargain with me. His Majesty Zhao Huang has a heart of compassion, so I will call you to see him On the one hand, it was intended to spare the lives of the people in the city, but what about you? It's really boring to make empty talk."

"Right now, you have two choices, if you surrender, you will live, if you refuse, you will die!"
