Chapter 789: Take the King City, pacify the peninsula!
In the sky with stars hanging high, the firmament was brilliant.
Looking up at the sky, Zhang Cheng could not help but lean on his precious sword and say: "Deng Qiang, do you think anyone will remember the merits and demerits of our lives?"
"I don't know, I only know that the General once told me back then, to drive out the Hu barbarians and pacify the Central Plains!"
Turning his head to look at Zhang Cheng, Deng Qiang's originally youthful face had also become weathered in the year or more of fighting.
Looking at him already starting to grow a beard, Zhang Cheng laughed loudly: "Hahaha, I hope future generations will remember our merits, and not just remember my demerits..."
Closing his eyes, Zhang Cheng thought of the compatriots in the Central Plains still waiting for him to return, and immediately became incomparably firm: "Attack the city!"
"The General has ordered, attack the city!"
Accompanied by Deng Qiang's roar, torches were lit like a long dragon, constantly spreading.
"Attack the city!"
The sound of horns rang out, and the Chiliang Army immediately roared.
"Boom boom boom!"
The earth emitted a roar, and the Chiliang Army's attack began.
Awakened in the night, the people in the Goguryeo King City immediately became incomparably worried.
Because now, the people they had to face were the Chiliang Army, which was even more terrifying than the Yuwen Xianbei tigers and wolves!
"Kill, for the General!"
Emitting a roar, a Chiliang Army soldier charged onto the city wall, then faced the Goguryeo soldiers and constantly roared.
But not long after, because of exhaustion, he fell to the ground.
Crossing the body of his comrade, the Chiliang Army behind followed closely.
And war is just this cruel, there is no time at all for you to feel sad for the comrades who fell beside you!
Under the continuous fierce attack, the Goguryeo soldiers began to fear, began to tire.
They couldn't imagine what kind of belief supported this group of Central Plains people to fight to the death with them in the cold Liaodong.
However, just when the Goguryeo generals were fighting desperately, raging fires suddenly ignited inside the city.
Along the small path up to the King City, the people from the scout camp had already successfully rushed in.
And after various screams rang out, the great gate was also opened in the chaos.
Watching the city gate wide open, Deng Qiang immediately roared: "Soldiers, follow me and charge!"
"Kill!"
Emitting a roar, the Chiliang Army cavalry immediately flew forward.
Standing in the palace, when the Goguryeo King watched the entire city ignite with flames, his eyes could not help but flash with despair: "Is the inheritance of my Goguryeo to perish today?"
"Ah! Oh Heaven!"
Opening his hands to question the firmament, the Goguryeo King could not help but roar.
However, facing the Goguryeo King's answer, it was the constant roaring of the Chiliang Army in the entire city.
One hour later, when the Goguryeo soldiers surrounding the palace had no way out, they roared hysterically one after another.
Watching this scene, the Chiliang Army slowly parted, and from it walked out a young man.
Wearing a black cloak, on his chest was a ferocious green-faced beast.
His war boots stepped on the blue bricks sprinkled with blood, emitting a crisp sound. Zhang Cheng could not help but step forward and say: "You are warriors, however, your King is not worth your loyalty. The King forces you to kneel with hereditary power and empty names, Great Wei lets you stand up!"
And hearing Zhang Cheng's words, many soldiers loyal to Goguryeo fell silent.
Because until now, they had never seen their own King!
But as a general, Zhang Cheng was already standing before the Chiliang Army.
"Put down your weapons, accept the orders from Great Wei, and become one of us!"
Roaring loudly, Zhang Cheng could not help but walk forward.
And just at this moment, a Goguryeo soldier put down the long spear in his hand and slowly knelt halfway on the ground.
Accompanied by one person starting to kneel, others constantly knelt down.
Feeling the greatness of this scene before them, the Chiliang Army soldiers roared: "Great Wei ten thousand victories, Great Wei ten thousand victories!"
"Soldiers, ten thousand victories..."
Raising his arm, Zhang Cheng could not help but turn around and roar.
"General, ten thousand victories!" Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, many Chiliang Army soldiers roared hysterically.
Because this was the first time they had heard a commanding general praising their glory!
Do you understand now the gold content of "the rice has been harvested a thousand times, long live the people for the first time"?
As an enemy, when the Far East people shout "the Party and the people need you", don't hesitate, turn around and run, because you will definitely die!
Inside the palace, the Goguryeo King was still sitting high above, wearing brocade from Jiangnan, luxurious in every way.
Drawing his long sword, Zhang Cheng looked coldly at the other party and said: "Don't you feel sad for those soldiers who fought to the death?"
"This is what they should pay, my Goguryeo royal family..."
However, before his words were finished, Zhang Cheng pierced his heart with a sword, without any hesitation at all.
Watching blood constantly dripping from the throne he had pierced, Zhang Cheng backhanded and drew his long sword: "A person like this? How can he become a King? Just like the Sima clan of Eastern Jin, it is truly disgusting!"
"Who let them be born as kings and nobles!"
Coming to Zhang Cheng's side, Deng Qiang opened his mouth.
"Distribute the palace maids here, reward them to the meritorious soldiers, and for those who died in battle, issue them according to the vanguard, don't let their families feel cold!"
Speaking to Deng Qiang, Zhang Cheng could not help but become serious.
"Yes, General, however, Li Nong sent a letter, Pu Hong's son Pu Xiong changed his name to Fu Xiong, taking the opportunity to rebel, occupying Chang'an, and is swallowing the Qin land!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng, Deng Qiang said the urgent document he had just received.
"Li Nong, this kid, actually didn't betray me?"
!
Thinking of Li Nong still guarding Yecheng, Zhang Cheng felt a burst of gratification, because at the very least, he hadn't lost control of Hebei.
Now he, dominating the north, possessing Liaodong, and Goguryeo, if the land of the two rivers wasn't lost, the land of the Central Plains would be entirely in his grasp.
As for the betrayal of Wang Wu and Duan Qi, Zhang Cheng didn't worry at all, because these were all small characters.
And Fu Xiong of Former Qin was indeed a trouble, but the main one wasn't him, but his son, Fu Jian, and Wang Meng who hadn't been born yet!
As for Eastern Jin, Zhang Cheng was more worried about Huan Wen, but Eastern Jin was ruled by aristocratic families; if they wanted to fight him, the court would have to argue for at least a year or a half.
By the time they finished discussing sending troops, Zhang Cheng would have already set up a tombstone for Former Qin!
"Order Zhang Hao to take Baekje and Silla within three months, we will return to Liaodong first, then reorganize the army, and pacify Wang Wu..."
Just after Zhang Cheng's order was issued, Deng Qiang also hurriedly bowed: "Yes, General!"
After Deng Qiang left, the scout battalion commander walked in and said: "General, the last son of the Yuwen Xianbei Murong clan has been caught!"
Looking at the youth constantly struggling in the scout battalion commander's hands, Zhang Cheng could not help but step forward and say: "Tsk tsk tsk, truly terrifying! That pair of eyes of yours seems to want to kill me!"
Teasing as he stepped forward, Zhang Cheng looked at the youth before him and could not help but smile.
"Beggar boy, if you don't kill me today, I will definitely kill your entire clan in the future..."
Looking at Zhang Cheng in anger, the Murong youth before him roared.
And hearing his words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but laugh loudly: "Truly a young hero, actually still wanting to kill my entire clan..."
"Release him!"
Signaling to the scout battalion commander, Zhang Cheng could not help but raise his hand.
Looking at Zhang Cheng in doubt, the scout battalion commander let go of his hand under his gaze.
And just in the next second, the Murong youth turned around and ran wildly toward the outside.
But just when he was about to cross the great gate, an arrow pierced his heart from behind, appearing in front of his chest.
Lowering his head, the youth looked at this scene in disbelief.
But just in the next second, Zhang Cheng drew his bow again, and the arrow pierced his chest again.
Falling to the ground unwillingly, the youth still didn't understand why Zhang Cheng had released him, only to act again.
"Don't leave any room when doing things, take his head back!"
Putting down his bow coldly, Zhang Cheng could not help but reveal a ferocious smile.
When hope turns into despair, this is the most terrifying thing in the world. Want to escape? There are five hundred Kriegers outside!
