Chapter 73 This King Only Looks at the Future



The screams under the city wall attracted Lu Fan's attention.

When he looked under the city wall, he was shocked to see Ji Pingchang, who was covered in blood, holding a bloody human head in his hand.

This head is that of Peng Yu who was fighting with him.

After looking at each other and Lu Fan, Ji Pingchang immediately activated his cultivation and shouted loudly:

"Everyone should stop attacking the city and stay where they are. No running around. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

As Ji Pingchang's roar spread around, the remaining six captains also tried to comfort all the soldiers.

The originally chaotic scene gradually became quiet because of Ji Pingchang and the remaining six thousand captains.

The wave of siege and chaotic stampede just now once again caused more than a thousand Zhenbei soldiers to die under the city.

The remaining more than 18,000 Zhenbei soldiers were all looking around with bewildered faces.

They don't understand why this is happening.

They are obviously Daqian's army and are responsible for guarding the northern border for Daqian.

As a result, they turned around and attacked the city they were protecting.

Moreover, the so-called siege battle was like child's play. They watched many familiar companions being easily killed and trampled to death.

They did not die in the fight with the Mobei barbarians, but in such an inexplicable rebellion and siege.

They are just soldiers at the lowest level, with no right to choose, let alone decision-making.

Seeing that the chaos below the city was calmed down, Lu Fan nodded secretly in his heart.

This guy is quite useful.

As for why Ji Pingchang suddenly attacked Peng Yu just now, Lu Fan also guessed the reason.

But he didn't have time to care about such trivial matters at the moment.

Looking to the northwest, I saw a mighty 60,000-strong army stopped five hundred meters west of the North City Gate.

At this moment, the three forces faced each other in the shape of a character.

After taking a distant look, Lu Fan turned around and walked downstairs. Jiang Shang followed closely behind him.

Qin Qiong and Xia Houwei wanted to follow Lu Fan down together, but were stopped by Luo Cheng.

"Cousin, you and General Xia should stay here. The city must be guarded. My lord's safety is in my hands. Don't worry."

Seeing what Luo Cheng said, Qin Qiong and Xia Houwei had no choice but to nod.

"Cousin, you must protect your lord!"

Luo Cheng nodded heavily, and then quickly followed Lu Fan and Jiang Shang to the city.

Lu Chuan dismounted from his horse and walked quickly to Lu Fan. Before he could speak, Lu Fan said bluntly:

"Take all the troops and follow me out of the city!"

"promise!"

Lu Chuan raised his hand to salute with great excitement, and then immediately returned to his horse.

Upon seeing this, Qin Qiong on the city wall immediately ordered loudly: "Open the city gate!"

As the city gate was opened with a rumble, Lu Fan led Jiang Shang and Luo Cheng on horseback, followed closely by Lu Chuan with all the golden fire cavalry.

The more than 18,000 Zhenbei troops at the city gate also reorganized their formation under the arrangements of Ji Pingchang and six thousand captains, and divided into two teams to stand on both sides of the city gate.

After seeing Lu Fan come out, Ji Pingchang and the six captains knelt down on one knee and saluted in unison without hesitation.

"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince!"

They are different from staunch rebels like Tong Qian and Peng Yu.

They were forced to do something helpless or coerced, and they did not really want to rebel in their hearts.

There was no chance to surrender before, but now there is.

After Ji Pingchang and six thousand captains knelt down on one knee to salute, more than 18,000 Zhenbei troops on both sides of the city gate also knelt down on one knee.

"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince!"

At this time, the first wave of more than 6,000 Zhenbei troops who surrendered also came to the city gate and knelt down on one knee to salute under the leadership of several captains.

He looked at the more than 25,000 Zhenbei troops who were still attacking the city just now, but now kneeled down on one knee and saluted him.

Lu Fan felt helpless and relieved.

He didn't have so much murderous intention or anger towards these low-level soldiers.

After all, it was only the higher-ups who rebelled, and they just passively accepted orders.

In the day-to-day training and battle, they have little ability to think independently, and it has become their instinct to accept orders and perform tasks.

So when they attacked the city, they only thought about completing the task, but did not think that they were rebelling.

call!

Taking a deep breath, Lu Fan looked at the more than 25,000 Zhenbei troops kneeling on one knee around the city gate and shouted in a deep voice:

"I keep my word. No matter what you have done before, I will let it go. You will still be part of the Zhenbei Army in the future. You are the pride of our army."

After saying this, Lu Fan changed the subject and shouted coldly: "But you must also pay the price for your actions."

"So pick up your weapons and work with me to rescue our brothers and sisters, and don't let them be controlled by the rebels."

"promise!"

Lu Fan's two words immediately made the more than 25,000 Zhenbei soldiers who were at a loss and uneasy feel completely relieved.

If they are branded as rebels, they will inevitably die sooner or later.

But Lu Fan's two consecutive assurances were enough to make them let go completely.

And Lu Fan's move also completely won over the hearts of more than 25,000 Zhenbei soldiers.

After more than 25,000 Zhenbei soldiers took up arms again, Lu Fan found Ji Pingchang and the remaining eleven thousand commanders.

Arriving in front of Lu Fan, Ji Pingchang and others suddenly had unspeakable guilty looks on their faces.

"Your Highness, we..."

"Okay, I don't want to hear about the past. I only care about the future."

After raising his hand to interrupt them, Lu Fan looked at Ji Pingchang, who had the highest position, and said in a deep voice:

"This king asks you, except for you, are the other ten thousand captains under Zhang Yu determined to rebel?"

"Your Highness, the six of them were originally Zhang Yu's personal guards, and were promoted to ten thousand captains by Zhang Yu. They are all loyal to Zhang Yu."

Hearing this answer, Lu Fan immediately understood, and after a pause, he asked:

"What about the remaining 70,000 troops, do they want to rebel or are they forced to do so like you?"

Seeing Lu Fan asking this, Ji Pingchang's face suddenly showed a frustrated and helpless look.

"Your Highness, how could ordinary soldiers be willing to rebel... But Zhang Yu found someone from nowhere, and replaced more than half of the thousand-man and centurion commanders.

These replaced guys are cruel and vicious, and the soldiers dare not resist at all, so..."

"Okay, I know, these 25,000 Zhenbei troops will be handed over to you for the time being, don't let me down!"

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, we will definitely make amends!"

"Let's go!"

After the voice fell, Lu Fan led Jiang Shang and Luo Cheng and rode straight forward.

Three thousand golden fire cavalrymen walked in the middle, and more than 25,000 Zhenbei troops followed at the end under the leadership of Ji Pingchang and others.

In this way, after marching 500 meters, Lu Fan led the huge team to stop.

So far, the three forces have formed a more clear shape of a Chinese character "品", facing each other from a distance...
