Chapter 416

A black torrent poured in from the city gate, and behind them were embroidered with toads, this ugly creature had become a symbol of terror in the emperor's heart at this moment. Emperor ** rushed from both sides, trying to block the enemy back out of the city, and the two torrents collided viciously, splashing red blood waves.

Li Letian took the lead and appeared at the front of the line, he clenched his sword, raised it high, and swung it down again.

"Kill, kill with me!"

"Your Highness's safety is of paramount importance, and we will cover His Highness's retreat. "The personal guard who is responsible for protecting Li Letian.

Li Letian swung his sword and cut off the head of a rebel, blood splashed on his face, he reached out to wipe it away, and his pupils were already covered with scarlet blood.

"Kill, and then dare to say that those who retreat, will die with this person!"

The soldiers set off a wave of small peaks, and Li Letian's bravery stimulated everyone, and they clenched their weapons to fight, and then ushered in greater sacrifices.

Inside and outside the city gate, there were killing machines, corpses pressing corpses, stumps stacking stumps, and Li Letian was also in the center of the fight.

Left diagonal split, right horizontal slash, middle flat stab......

He held the sword in both hands, the most basic sword moves, it was difficult to say whether the battle at the moment relied on his brain or pure muscle memory.

Combat is never fun, stab your enemies in the heart with all your might, killing the same life as yourself, and yet waiting to be killed by the enemy at any time.

A stray arrow shot at Li Letian's shoulder, and he fell to his knees in pain, then stood up proudly and stabbed his sword into the lower abdomen of an enemy.

In this situation, it is impossible to tell where the arrows are coming from, the Righteous Sect or the Emperor**. The blood did not stop, and due to exhaustion and blood loss, Li Letian was already a little dizzy.

"Your Highness, retreat. The captain of the pro-soldier said.

"Don't retreat, kill me!" Li Letian roared with his greatest strength, but he became more and more powerless.

The captain of the personal soldiers gritted his teeth fiercely, carried Li Letian on his back, swung his sword to split the enemies around him, and fled to the west of the city.

"No retreat, no retreat...... Li Letian was dying, wanting to use his last strength to make a final effort to stop the defeat.

The captain of the personal army escorted Li Letian away, which was the best choice for Li Letian, but it was not necessarily for the battle.

With the courage of the soldiers, Li Letian's rout and escape took away the last morale of the emperor and the only possibility of victory. A team that loses morale is no different from pigs and dogs to be slaughtered.

Of course, it can't be said that there is no difference at all, at least pigs and dogs are more difficult to deal with.

Li Letian understood this, and he was even ready to live and die on the battlefield with Chang'an City. However, he finally failed to do anything, and led all the way west under the leadership of his own soldiers.

At this moment, Li Letian is not the only one who has fled out, but also the businessmen, civilians, and high-ranking officials in the city...... Like grasshoppers caught in flames, they frantically flocked out of the city.

Simon was even more crowded, with men's cursing, children's weeping, and women's sobs. Most of these people are big names in Chang'an City and even the entire empire, and they are all decent people.

But today, the dignity of these people has fallen cleanly.

"The Great Prince!"

A veteran waited at the city gate, seemingly waiting for Li Letian. Li Letian used his last strength to push away the captain of the pro-soldier and staggered closer.

This veteran is the Imperial General Wei Chi Li, and many of the disciples he has raised are masters, if he gathers people at this time and kills back to the East Gate, the outcome of this battle has not yet been determined.

"General Wei Chi ......"

Wei Chili coughed heavily, he was old, not the fierce tiger who fought on the battlefield.

"Your Highness, run for your life, the old minister will escort His Highness away!"

Li Letian was stunned, and he felt that something had been broken in his heart. Then, he remembered something more. Wei Chi left the position of high power, and more than half of the famous generals of the empire were trained by him. But in this campaign, his performance was not stupid, but it was mediocre.

In a trance, he was also waiting for the thieves to break the city.

This man, who has always been regarded by his father as a pillar of the empire, is he really loyal to the empire?

Loyal or not, treacherous or not, this is the empire today. Li Letian remembered what Emperor Ming once said to himself: Raising a soldier is like raising an eagle, if you are full, you will run away, and if you are hungry, you will eat the master.

It seems that he can't blame him for anything at this moment, he is powerless, and it seems that only Emperor Ming is to blame. Even if he wants to blame something, Li Letian really doesn't have the strength.

On the day of the destruction of Chang'an City, Li Letian was wounded by an arrow, and under the cover of Wei Chili, he escaped from Chang'an City from the West Gate with the defeated army.

The city of Chang'an was broken, tearing off the last fig leaf of the empire. But at this time, it is too early to say that the Righteous Church has won this battle.

There is no shortage of deserters, but there is no shortage of fierce generals, these people led the remnants of the soldiers and horses to fight in the streets of Chang'an City with the bandits of the Righteous Sect, and the killing was still very tragic.

At this time, Lin Shaoyu led his elite men and went straight to the imperial palace.

Here, he encountered one of the most elite troops of the Empire, the Ichthyosaurus.

Emperor ** is the soldier of the empire, but it is not necessarily the soldier of the Li family, most of them are in the hands of various princes, but the fish dragon guard is personally trained and promoted by Emperor Ming, and it is really the team held by Emperor Ming.

The battle was fought very hard, and according to the palace, the anti-Righteous bandits were outside the gate.

"Your Majesty, Chang'an City has been broken, the old slave will escort Your Majesty away. Liu Aji knelt in front of Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming sat on the golden palace, there was no trace of the civil and military officials, and there was only a castrated eunuch in front of him. In front of him, there was an iron spear, and Emperor Ming was confused, as if he was thinking about something, and ignored Liu Aji's words.

"Your Majesty......" Liu Aji called again.

Emperor Ming suddenly came back to his senses, raised his head and said, "What, what did you just say?"

"The thieves have broken through Chang'an City, and they are fighting fiercely with the Fish Dragon Guard, for the sake of Your Majesty's dragon body, let the old slave escort Your Majesty away. ”

"Leave, and you want to run away again?" Emperor Ming's voice was a little dazed.

Liu Aji didn't dare to answer, how could he say that he escaped, how could he say that he was traveling east, hunting in the west, traveling north, and hunting in the south.

Emperor Ming shook his head, his eyes changed from cloudy to clear, and he stood up, robed by dragons.

"I ran away again and again and didn't want to run anymore. ”

"Your Majesty. Liu Aji's voice was a little hoarse.

"Aji, what do you say about us people in the future?" asked Emperor Ming.

"Your Majesty is wise and martial, and what you have done should be remembered by someone. Liu Aji's eyes were red.

"The Rong people are on the border, the people are not happy, the princes are numerous, and the heroes are strong. Emperor Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Our Li family is really not doing well in managing these things." I just hope that future generations can do better than me. ”

"Your Majesty, it may not be impossible to make a comeback in the future, the bandits are rampant, but they will not last long. ”

"No, it's not decent for me to be this dragon chair for the rest of my life. Emperor Ming stood up: "Now, I want to have a decent way to die." ”
