"Your Majesty, are you alright?"
Gongsun Zhangqing, who was dressed in armor, held his battle sword and stood in the air, staring down at the remnants of the Han army with an indifferent gaze.
"Gongsun Zhangqing, so you've already joined the people of Jiang Country!"
Princess Bing angrily shouted at that person, "His Majesty has treated you well, why did you do this? You traitor of the Han Empire, traitor, traitor, you will die a horrible death! "
"Gongsun Zhangqing!" His Majesty loves you very much. You are so young, but you have already become an expedition general, and the magic treasure and profound coin bestowed upon you are countless, but you … You actually colluded with the people of Jiang Country and harmed my Han Country! You are a wolf with wild ambitions! "
"Gongsun Zhangqing!" "Shameless!"
"Ungrateful!"
"The Gongsun family is full of loyal people, how could there be such a despicable person like you?"
The civil and military officials all began to curse, wishing that they could tear this young general to shreds.
However, facing the curses of the crowd, Gongsun Zhangqing did not move in the slightest, as if he did not hear them.
His gaze had always been on the king of the Han State.
"Why …" Betray the country? "
After a long time, the king of the Han State spoke.
"You finally asked me this question." Gongsun Zhangqing seemed to have been waiting for these words, and said indifferently: "I thought you would avoid this question."
"Tell me …"
"The reason is very simple." Gongsun Zhangqing said calmly: "One person!"
"Who?"
"Yi Hong." He simply spat out these two words, but as soon as these two words left his mouth, his body trembled ever so slightly.
"That female rogue cultivator who wandered the Jiang Han realm?"
The king, Qu Tianba, frowned.
"That's right."
Gongsun Zhangqing's face finally revealed a trace of emotion, it was an expression of anger, he said in a low voice: "Yi Hong roamed the Myriad Heavens, but mistakenly entered the Jiang Han Realm, and was looking for a way to leave the realm, when the two of us accidentally met, she was injured by a fierce beast with a seventh stage Sky Spirit Master, and I saved her. Although we met by chance, we were in love with each other, and our hearts were connected. She had already decided to be my dual cultivation companion, and gave up on the path of wandering, and followed me to live in the Jiang Han Realm, but … She met you once when she was out!
The more Gongsun Zhangqing spoke, the angrier he became. The more he spoke, the more his handsome face twisted. In the end, he almost roared.
"You lusted after Yi Hongsheng's beauty, so you forced her into the Imperial City and forced her to dual cultivate with you. She couldn't stand your humiliation, so she self-detonated. Her soul didn't exist, and she died! Qu Tianba, don't think that I don't know that the reason you lost your cultivation was not because of a mistake in your cultivation! It was Yi Hong who injured your Qi Meridian and Origin when she self-detonated. That's why your cultivation has regressed!!! "
When these words came out, everyone was stunned.
The Grand Princess and the rest stared at their royal father with wide eyes. They were completely unaware of these things.
Everyone's gazes fell on Qu Tianba in unison, their eyes filled with confusion …
The soldiers looked at the monarch they were protecting with astonishment. Even mortals would disdain to do such a thing. How could the dignified king of the Spirit Cultivation Country do such a thing?
The Grand Princess looked at her father and opened her mouth. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she found that she didn't know what to say.
Not only her, but the others also didn't know what to say.
"What is it? As the ruler of a country, can't I take a woman as my dual cultivation partner? This country is mine, everything is mine, even if I am really like this, what wrong did I do? "
Qu Tianba was silent for a long time before he said in a deep voice.
Hearing that, Gongsun Zhangqing nodded.
"Good!" Very good! Very good! "Since you think that you can do whatever you want just because you are the ruler of a country, then I can only destroy your privilege and give you the punishment you deserve!"
His words were filled with indignation, and every word was filled with the anger of hatred.
"Just for the sake of a woman, you're going to let down the entire Han State?" Qu Tianba asked.
"You don't understand at all!" Gongsun Zhangqing said solemnly, "To me, Yi Hong is more important than the State of Han!"
"You …"
"Gongsun Zhangqing, if you want a woman, His Majesty can give it to you! You can have as many as you want! "
"General Gongsun!" There will always be times when people make mistakes. It's great to know your mistakes and be able to change them. If you remove your armor and pledge your allegiance to His Majesty now, His Majesty will definitely not care about your mistakes! "
"That's right, General Gongsun, if it's just a woman, why are you doing this? This is going to be infamy for all eternity! "
All the civil and military officials found a breakthrough point and began to persuade Gongsun Zhangqing one after another.
If they could persuade Gongsun Zhangqing to pledge his loyalty to the Han State at this time, then for the current Han State, it would be a blessing in disguise, and everyone would have a chance of survival.
However …
Gongsun Zhangqing snorted coldly.
"You all value the righteousness of the country, but I only value the people I care about! Qu Tianba killed my dual cultivation partner, I definitely won't let him off just like that! I want the entire Han State, the entire Qu Family, to accompany Yi Hong in death! "
"Gongsun Zhangqing!" Don't be stubborn, it's not too late to turn back now! If you admit your mistakes and submit to my royal father, my royal father will definitely disregard the past and will still put you in an important position. "The First Princess took a few steps forward and advised.
"Stop wasting your saliva."
Gongsun Zhangqing shook his head, "If you want me to stop, unless … Qu Tianba is willing to commit suicide here! Otherwise, I won't stop! "
"No way!" Prince Consort Li immediately shouted, "Now that the country is in danger, nothing must happen to His Majesty. Otherwise, the Han State will really be ruined."
"I have long since had nothing to do with the Han State. From the moment I decided to take revenge for Yi Hong! I no longer care about the lives of the people of Han! " Gongsun Zhangqing's expression gradually returned to normal, "So, I don't care about the fate of the Han State at all. Now, Qu Tianba, either you commit suicide now, or I will capture you alive and hand you over to Xuan Ao to deal with.
He had already given the final ultimatum.
There was no mercy.
There was no leeway!
Qu Tianba was silent.
He knew that no matter which choice he made, he would not be able to escape death.
Now that he chose to commit suicide, even if Gongsun Zhangqing kept his promise and allowed these people to return to the Han State, it would only bring about a short period of peace. The country could not be without a ruler for a single day, and once Qu Tianba died, the Han State would definitely fall into chaos.
But if he refused and stood up with Gongsun Zhangqing, although Gongsun Zhangqing did not have many people and could fight, he only needed to delay the crowd and wait for Xuan Ao's support. Once Xuan Ao's reinforcements arrived, these Han soldiers would be like a piece of fat meat that would be eaten clean by them.
Qu Tianba was still struggling with his thoughts, but Gongsun Zhangqing was already impatient.
He gently landed on the ground and stared at Qu Tianba, the passion in his eyes becoming more and more obvious!
"Bastard!" Could it be that the sons of the Han State will allow the enemy to be arrogant and despotic and insult our country?
"At this moment, a general with a full beard stood out from the crowd.
One of his arms had been blown off, and blood had dyed his robe red. The other arm was still holding onto a blade.
As soon as he appeared, he raised his blade high and roared at the Han army behind him, "We are men, seven feet tall, killing the enemy and serving the country, today is the day! General Li has died for the country! What are you waiting for? Come with me and cover His Majesty's retreat! "Kill!"
The general's roar was like a flame that had ignited dry firewood. The confused and bewildered Han soldiers seemed to have found their backbone in an instant. Everyone roared and rushed forward.
Aggrieved!
All the people of Han felt aggrieved, especially the soldiers of the Han State.
He did not evaluate whether the king's actions were right or wrong, but regardless of everything else, he was still the king of the Han State … Moreover, every soldier here was not protecting this king, but the Han State behind them, and everything behind them.
How could a general not be a country?
In an instant, the Han soldiers swarmed over like a tide, rushing towards Gongsun Zhangqing.
Although they were all defeated soldiers, their momentum was like a rainbow. They no longer had a path of retreat, no choice. If they didn't fight now, when would they?
The one-armed general took the lead and rushed to the front.
However, the rebel army on Gongsun Zhangqing's side was also the first to kill him. A large number of profound technique s bombarded his body, causing his incomplete body to immediately shatter, and even his soul was torn apart.
The one-armed general's fearless spirit had completely inspired the Han army at this moment.
No general to command?
No! This general had used his actions and life to tell everyone that there was only one thing they needed to do now!
Kill all the invaders!
Although the soldiers were weak, they had enough momentum.
At this moment, they had forgotten about life and death. If they could fight, then they would fight. If they couldn't, then they would take one with them.
The rebels were stunned.
Previously, this group of people were like sick sheep, but now, they were like fierce tigers …
A large number of Han soldiers fell, but even more people rushed forward.
The generals were also infected. They did not continue to hide behind the king and rushed forward with low roars.
Qu Tianba watched all of this quietly, watching as his soldiers fell one by one in front of him. In that instant, his hair turned incomparably white, and he became an old man …
All of this today was caused by his own hands …
"Your Majesty … Now! "Let's go!"
The Prime Minister walked over, wiped away his tears, and whispered.
"Let's go, Your Majesty!"
"Let's go!"
The rest of the civil officials said.
"Could it be … They fought for me, bathed in blood, and I … Abandoned them and fled?" Qu Tianba clenched his fists and said.
"If we don't leave now, then when Xuan Ao comes, we won't have a chance!" The Prime Minister advised earnestly!
Qu Tianba was silent …
Finally, he suddenly turned around, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Let's go!"
