From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 246

King Jing finally put on the dragon robe.

He had been waiting for this day for a long time. He had planned to wear it and sit in that position on New Year's Eve.

Now it was the third day of the New Year. Guan Miaoshan was trapped in Miyun Lake, and the stone and worries in his heart were finally put down.

Everything was as he expected. Jizhou was held back by the Eastern Tartars and did not dare to support it. Many court officials and relatives also surrendered, so he was not short of people.

"It's time to launch a general attack."

King Jing wore the dragon robe and shouted: "I want to supervise the battle myself! I want to see that demon concubine desperate!"

With the support of a group of guards and ministers, he got on the carriage and came to the foot of the mountain of Miyun Lake.

The tents of Queen Zhaojing and others can be seen in front of him. With only more than 10,000 people, how can they defend it?

He said calmly: "Shout, tell Guan Miaoshan to surrender, I can spare her life."

"If you don't surrender before the hour of Xu, we won't care about that much."

The 110,000 troops, in neat formation and majestic, roared in unison.

Several captains at the front line shouted in accordance with the order: "The evil concubine usurped power and plotted to seize the country of Jin, which led to rampant banditry, constant natural disasters, and the people's misery. Now the Chen royal family is the direct descendant, and the wise king has succeeded to the throne, and I order you to surrender immediately."

"Before the hour of Xu, those who surrender will not be killed!"

The voice of the challenge was deafening, and the imperial guards were so angry that they wanted to kill them, and the soldiers of the North City Military Department clenched their knives.

Zhou Yuan had a gloomy face and didn't say anything, just standing quietly on a high place, overlooking the 100,000 troops in front.

Waiting for the hour of Xu? Who isn't waiting for the hour of Xu?

This battle has been waiting for too long, and it has been planned for too long. It's time to close the net.

"Zhou Yuan..."

A gentle voice sounded, and Princess Qinshui had come behind Zhou Yuan without knowing when.

Zhou Yuan frowned slightly, clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, Princess."

Princess Qinshui was a little happy in her heart, and hurried to the front, and said anxiously, "I thought you were dead, I was very sad, but fortunately you are still alive, Zhou Yuan, thank you for not abandoning me in the most difficult time."

What is this, why is it so difficult to understand?

Zhou Yuan said indifferently: "That's what a minister should do. Please don't take it to heart, Princess."

Hearing this, Princess Qinshui's heart trembled, and whispered: "Zhou Yuan, don't you remember our escape? Why are you so cold to me?"

Zhou Yuan was really impatient, and glared at me and said: "How should I treat you? Hmm? Thank you for bringing Jianjia to Beishan and almost killing her?"

"Or thank you for suddenly going hunting that day and almost dragging me to death?"

"Or should I thank you for being gentle enough to me? After all, your gentleness is only for a few people."

Every word made Princess Qinshui feel extremely heartbroken.

She looked at Zhou Yuan in disbelief and trembled, "You! How...how can you say that?"

Zhou Yuan said, "Then what should I say? I treated you as a princess, but you insisted on being gentle with me. Now I'm angry, can you still blame me for not respecting you enough?"

Princess Qinshui was about to burst into tears, and choked up and said, "You...don't you have any affection for me? I..."

Zhou Yuan interrupted directly, "Only a special existence like a princess would have so-called affection when running for her life, right? Haha, it's a pity that I just wanted to survive at that time."

This sentence made Princess Qinshui tremble and her face suddenly pale.

He just wanted to survive, he didn't have any affection for me...

It turned out that everything was my own fault. His care for me along the way was just out of duty...

Princess Qinshui felt that her heart was so painful. From birth to now, she had never felt this way.

Even when she was scolded by her father and even when her mother died, she didn't feel as wronged and sad as she does now.

Is this the taste of losing love?

She thought of many plots in biographical novels. She had only read those stories before, but she never understood why those women died for those stinky men.

Now she realized it, it was really painful.

"It turns out... I thought too much..."

Princess Qinshui burst into tears on the spot, shook her head and cried, "I can only wish you and Jianjia happiness."

After she finished speaking, she ran away.

Looking at her back, Zhou Yuan touched his head and murmured, "What is this crazy woman doing again... and she is acting in a dog-blood drama."

He was in no mood to care about so much. The sunset in the west had completely disappeared, and the sky was finally dark.

So Zhou Yuan decisively shouted: "Fire a flare!"

With the sharp sound, a white light rushed straight into the sky, suddenly exploded, and almost illuminated the earth.

Seeing this scene, King Jing, who was wearing a dragon robe, couldn't help but twitch his right eyelid, and subconsciously felt uneasy.

He immediately shouted: "The demon concubine is obsessed withWu! Wujun Camp! Xuanfu Camp! Attack! "

One hundred thousand troops roared, drew their swords, and countless torches lit up, and the general offensive was finally about to begin.

This New Year's farce was about to end completely on the shore of Miyun Lake.

Just at this moment, a loud noise spread throughout the world, and the roar was unnoticed.

That was the sound of drums, the sound of fierce military drums!

In front, behind, on both sides, there were close drum sounds everywhere, as if the sky was collapsing, and the loud noise never stopped.

Countless torches lit up from behind Miyun Lake, as if the earth was burning, and the dazzling light illuminated the world.

Behind the army, fire dragons rose up, and countless soldiers held torches high and roared.

"Destroy the rebels! Kill the traitors!"

"Destroy the rebels! Kill the traitors! ”

Countless roars, like tsunamis and landslides, swept towards King Jing’s army from all directions.

For a moment, everyone’s face changed.

King Jing shouted in shock: "What's going on! Where did the army come from!"

"Report! Report!"

The scout came on horseback, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Your Highness, a large number of troops appeared in the rear, estimated to be 50,000 to 60,000 people, judging from the shape of their armor, they are the Jizhou army!"

"What! Jizhou army! How did they fly here!"

King Jing was dumbfounded, and his heart was in a panic.

Another scout came on horseback, shouting: "Report! Your Highness! A large number of troops rushed out of the forest beside Miyun Lake. The specific number is unknown. Judging from the shape of their armor, they should be the Shandong Leiden Army!"

King Jing raised his head in horror and said in a trembling voice: "When did the Leiden garrison... arrive at Yanshan! "

A loud shout suddenly came, and a strong man wearing iron armor, riding a horse and galloping, laughing: "Chen De, the traitor! You can't imagine that I'm in Yanshan!"

The strong man held a Guandao, with infinite momentum, and almost rushed to the front of the battle, shouting: "Traitor! This general has been waiting for you here for five or six days!"

"Wu Dingzhong? You...what are you..."

King Jing's voice was stuttering.

Wu Dingzhong laughed and said: "I received the imperial edict and military funds from His Majesty half a month ago, and led 90,000 troops to the north, from Shimen to Jinmen, and then north to Jizhou, and finally camped near this Miyun Lake."

"There is sufficient water here, and it is a natural place to camp. Otherwise, why would I lead you here!"

"To tell you the truth, Pang Pangzi is right behind you, and the two of us have brought 150,000 troops together!"

King Jing's mentality almost collapsed, and he couldn't help shouting: "Guan Miaoshan, you vicious woman! ”

He finally realized that he was fooled, but fortunately the other side only had 100,000 people, so he roared: "100,000 vs. 150,000, so what! We are the army of Beijing Camp and Xuanfu, why should we be afraid of your Jizhou and Leiden army!"

"Hahaha!"

Wu Dingzhong couldn't help laughing and said: "You idiot, you don't know how to fight and you give blind orders. Did you carry enough supplies with your Five Army Camp and Xuanfu Army to chase His Majesty? Did you carry heavy chariots!"

"After three days of raiding, can you still hold on physically!"

"Our 150,000 troops are well rested and will kill you like chickens and dogs!"

At this point, he shouted: "My men! Are you ready to kill the traitors!"

"Kill, kill, kill! "

Countless soldiers behind him roared in unison, with overwhelming momentum.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but laugh. In fact, there were only 40,000 people from Shandong, but Wu Dingzhong said there were 90,000. His rhetoric almost broke the opponent's already fragile morale.

This battle was won before it even started.

This counter-encirclement was basically a done deal.
