Chapter 323
Even His Majesty had personally come to the battlefield, so what were they afraid of?
Just do it!
The soldiers behind Li Er charged forward one after another, fearing they would fall behind.
As one side grew, the other waned.
Li Chengqian was mediocre in ability, and because he was greedy for life and afraid of death, he only stood on the Changancheng city tower to put on a show.
In this way.
The soldiers under his command all felt extremely unbalanced.
Originally, the name of this war was to quell a rebellion, and they were all rebels.
In the hearts of the people of the world, this was a war of justice triumphing over evil!
How much infamy were Li Chengqian's soldiers bearing?
Now that they had reached the moment of life and death, Li Chengqian was still comfortably standing on the city tower watching the show!
Why?
Why are we risking our lives while you watch the show?
This resentful feeling spread slowly like a virus.
Under Li Er's crushing "507" offensive, they were gradually on the verge of collapse.
"Listen to me, I am the Emperor of the Great Tang, the Crown Prince has rebelled against Heaven, and his crime deserves death! I cannot bear to see the soldiers of the Great Tang slaughtering each other. Surrender immediately, and I swear in the name of the Son of Heaven of the Great Tang that all past grievances will be forgiven! If you continue to be obsessed and aid the tyrant, you must be responsible for your own actions!"
On the vast battlefield covered in heavy snow, Li Er sat on his warhorse, held his long sword high, and shouted loudly.
The Emperor's majesty was like a dragon roaring in the nine heavens, echoing for a long time in this world.
Li Chengqian's army was all stunned.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear and relief.
Their faith,
had completely collapsed!
"Great, as long as we put down our weapons, His Majesty will pardon our crimes!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's surrender!"
"Your Majesty, we surrender!"
The soldiers put down their weapons one after another, prostrating on the ground to kowtow to the supreme Emperor Li Er.
"Bastards! Who told them to surrender!"
Li Chengqian, standing on the city tower, saw this scene and was already furious, shouting angrily.
But the guards around him seemed to have already given up; no one paid any attention to him, and instead, they quietly left the city tower.
"You all come back! Where are you going?"
Li Chengqian shouted hysterically, but no one paid any attention to him anymore.
The defeat was set!
The situation was lost!
Hou Junji had also died on the battlefield.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, run! We have already lost!"
Several eunuchs from the Eastern Palace found the panicked Li Chengqian and desperately pulled him off the city tower.
"No! I haven't lost, I am the Son of Heaven of the Great Tang!"
Li Chengqian was almost insane, struggling to break free from the eunuchs' hands, shouting and yelling on the city tower.
And this scene was all seen by Li Er.
"Hmph! Rebellious son, I will settle the score with you!"
Li Er's face was ashen to the extreme.
But to tell the truth.
Li Er did not want to kill Li Chengqian.
Even though he was unfilial, even though he brought chaos to the world!
After all, he was his own biological son, whom he had loved for so many years.
To this day.
The image of Li Chengqian's honest and cute appearance as a child still surfaced in Li Er's mind.
After the war ended.
Li Er planned to imprison Li Chengqian, never allowing him to step out of the palace gates again.
At the same time.
The gates of Changancheng slowly opened.
The city guards walked out from inside, trembling as they knelt on the ground.
"Welcome, Your Majesty!"
"Hmph! Go, enter Changancheng!"
Li Er snorted coldly with satisfaction, spurred his horse, and slowly walked toward the city gate.
But just at this moment, a black shadow suddenly fell from the city tower.
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui hurriedly blocked Li Er's path into the city.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound suddenly rang out.
A person fell heavily in front of Li Er's horse's hooves.
Back to the sky, face to the ground.
Looking at the dragon robe worn by this person, Li Er's pupils suddenly constricted, and his breathing became rapid.
Li Er instantly rolled off his horse and ran toward the corpse regardless of everything.
The corpse was slowly turned over.
That familiar face appeared before Li Er.
Li Chengqian!
Dead!
"No! No! No!!!"
Li Er shouted in a near-mad frenzy, holding Li Chengqian's corpse tightly.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were also scared pale, not daring to breathe loudly.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian...
just died like this!?
The snowy night in Changancheng was dead silent.
The howling wind blew away the heavy snow.
The Imperial Palace, Taiji Hall.
A mess!
Almost all the palace maids and eunuchs had run away.
Li Er sat on the imperial steps, lost and dejected.
His gaze was unfocused, his expression dull!
The huge palace did not have a single sound.
Quiet!
Terrifyingly quiet!
Li Er seemed to have suffered an unprecedented blow, and he had aged a lot...
In his eyes.
No matter how many heinous crimes Li Chengqian had committed, he was his own flesh and blood after all.
Watching him fall into a pile of flesh before his eyes, even if Li Er had a heart of iron and stone, it was impossible for him to remain indifferent.
This blow was truly too great!
The son he had painstakingly cultivated for many years had now vanished into thin air.
