"Defeat?"

"Hehe?"

"How could this king possibly lose?"

"Impossible!"

"This king will not lose... Hehe... Hehehe..."

Xiao Yu's hair was disheveled, and he was shouting like a madman.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu picked up a long sword from the ground, and before anyone could react, he drew the sword and slashed himself.

"Yu'er!"

Seeing Xiao Yu's death, no one on the scene reacted at all, only Concubine Xuan Yi Wenjun cried out in grief and fainted in Wuxin's arms.

With Xiao Yu's death, the battle for the throne involving three princes finally came to an end temporarily.

During this period, a small episode also occurred.

That is, Zhuo Qing had originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that Xiao Se and the others were all restrained by the corpse puppets and wanted to escape quietly.

But he was severely injured by the swordsman who was watching the battle nearby. He could only lie on the ground and wait for death.

After the farce ended, Xie Zhize pointed with his right hand, and the Tianzhan Sword on the ground trembled slightly and rose from the ground, turning into a stream of light and disappearing into the sky.

"Everyone, Xie Xuan will take his leave today and meet again another day!"

After Xie Xuan finished speaking, he prepared to follow Xie Zhize to leave.

"Senior..."

Seeing Xie Zhize was about to leave, Xiao Se hurriedly called out.

It has been the wish of the descendants of the Beili royal family for generations to find the Tianzhan Sword. Today, he finally saw it, and Xiao Se naturally wanted the Tianzhan Sword to return.

"This Heaven Slashing Sword was entrusted to me by your ancestor Xiao Yi for safekeeping."

"Put it on the top floor of the No. 1 Building in the World."

"Whoever can reach the top floor can take the Heaven Slashing Sword away."

Xie Zhize also knew Xiao Se's purpose, and left after leaving this sentence.

"It's time for the old Taoist to go back."

After Qi Tianchen said this, he also turned around and left.

"Thank you for your help, Master Guo, and we will come to thank you in person another day."

Xiao Se and Xiao Chong bowed to Qi Tianchen and said.

After watching Qi Tianchen leave, Xiao Se and Xiao Chong looked at the devastated Chi Wang Mansion in front of them, and they were also very emotional.

Today's events have gone through many twists and turns, and the result was not even expected by them.

At one point, they were all desperate and ready to give up.

Fortunately, luck was on their side in the end. In the end, they not only won, but also won a great victory.

However, before Xiao Se and the others could sigh for too long, they saw Lan Yuehou galloping over on horseback.

"Uncle, why are you here? But my father..."

Seeing Lan Yuehou's hurried look, Xiao Se and Xiao Chong immediately went up to him and asked.

"His Majesty has woken up, and he urgently summoned you to the palace!"

"There is another important matter. Let's talk about it after we enter the palace."

Lan Yuehou said quickly.

Hearing that Emperor Mingde had woken up, Xiao Se and Xiao Chong did not delay and immediately followed Lan Yuehou and headed towards the palace.Rushed to.

Liyang Dynasty.

Outside Tai'an City.

Northern Liang Army Camp.

Xu Xiao, Xu Fengnian and a group of core generals of the Northern Liang Army gathered in this tent again.

Unlike the previous few days, the atmosphere in the tent was very solemn at this time.

"Yishan, how can we break the situation now?"

After a long silence, Xu Xiao asked slowly. (To read the novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"Difficult!"

Li Yishan shook his head slightly and sighed, and slowly uttered a word.

"Your Majesty, now we can say that we are riding a tiger and it is difficult to get off. In addition to conquering Tai'an City, there is no other choice."

Li Yishan said.

It is now the third day of their siege of Tai'an City.

According to the original plan, with a total of 400,000 elite troops from the Northern Liang Army and the Chu Army, three days would be enough to capture Tai'an City.

But now, after two days of fierce attacks, there is still no sign of the city being broken on the third day, and they are still blocked outside Tai'an City.

The reason is naturally not because the Liyang army's combat power has greatly increased after being on the verge of despair, but for other reasons.

Originally, Xu Xiao and his men had not found any problems in the first two days.

After all, the West Gate and North Gate where the Chu State was located were also fighting fiercely every day, and the daily statistics of soldiers' casualties in the Chu State were no less than theirs.

But on the third day, Xu Xiao and Li Yishan found a problem.

You must know that after two days of fierce fighting, because Xu Xiao ordered a full-scale attack on the city, the Northern Liang Army suffered heavy casualties in two days, with a loss of 50,000, but at the same time, it also killed nearly 60,000 Liyang defenders.

Normally, the loss of soldiers on the attacking side is much greater than that on the defending side.

But it is precisely because of the strong strength of the Northern Liang Army that such an excellent record was achieved.

On the Chu side, the intensity of the battle was not inferior to that of the Northern Liang Army. []

Based on the analysis of the losses and the reduction in the number of people in the camp of the Chu State in the first two days, Xu Xiao and his team also believed that the casualties on the Chu side were not less than theirs.

But halfway through the siege on the third day, Xu Xiao and Li Yishan discovered a huge problem at the same time.

That is, after two days of fighting, they killed 60,000 enemies, so normally, the results achieved by the Chu State should be similar to theirs.

After all, in the previous battle of Kuimen Pass, Xu Xiao and his team had also witnessed the combat effectiveness of the Chu army, which was not inferior to their Northern Liang Army at all.

But if this is the case, then it is not right.

You should know that there are only 150,000 defenders in Tai'an City.

If more than 100,000 soldiers have been lost in the past two days, it must be stretched to the limit to defend the four gates with only the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers.

But Xu Xiao and his men found today that the city gates of the east and southOn the wall, the flags were still flying, the crowds were still moving, and the defense was still strong. There was no sign of insufficient troops.

Seeing this, Xu Xiao and Li Yishan immediately reacted. There might be a big problem. They immediately called back the troops and summoned all the core generals to the central tent to discuss matters.

"Father, what happened?" (Denuo Zhao)

Yuan Zuozong and his men, who had just been called back from the battlefield and were still unclear about the situation, looked at the solemn expressions of Xu Xiao and Li Yishan and couldn't help asking.

Xu Fengnian, who had not been to the battlefield in person, was also confused at this time.

"Did you find any problems in the siege today?"

Faced with the questions of the crowd, Xu Xiao did not answer directly, but asked back.

"Problem?"

"I didn't find any problem? The resistance of the Liyang defenders is still tenacious..."

Yuan Zuozong was confused at first, but when he was halfway through his words, he immediately found the problem.

Yuan Zuozong was originally one of Xu Xiao's think tanks. Among the six adopted sons, his wisdom and strategic vision were second only to the deceased Chen Zhibao.

He didn't find it before, just because he thought that with Xu Xiao and Li Yishan around, he didn't need to worry too much.

After Xu Xiao's reminder, he immediately found the problem.
