Chapter 1653: Defeat at Lutai

Sun Fu is the current emperor.

Even if they are fleeing, the team is not small at all.

Including the family members of officials, the royal family members, the imperial guards, etc., there are no less than 5,000 people in total. Moreover, there are 20 fugitives escorting them all the way.

As for the two remnant armies, originally they only had more than 50,000 people.

But with the absorption and integration along the way like a snowball, a huge team of 100,000 people was formed, distributed in the dangerous passes along the way to prevent the pursuit from behind.

The following year, winter.

The cold wind was howling, and the grass withered.

Late at night, the fleeing team set up camp in a meadow by the stream.

Next to the huge bonfire, the old civil servant suggested to the middle-aged man in the golden robe next to him: "My emperor, Lutai City is not far ahead. Why don't we set up the new capital in Lutai?"

Sun Fu tightened his cloak, "This place is already the southeast of my Dayun. There is no point in going further. Just as Fang Cheng said, let's set up the capital in Lutai and wait for the right time."

Fang Deyuan bowed and said, "God bless Dayun, God bless my emperor, we will definitely be able to make a comeback and regain the lost land."

Sun Fu did not speak, but looked at the twenty strong men sitting around another bonfire. There was a very beautiful woman named Tian Wanxi.

Fang Deyun observed Sun Fu's words and expressions along the way, and naturally understood Sun Fu's thoughts. He smiled and whispered: "The whole world belongs to the king. When things are settled, this old minister can be a matchmaker for my emperor. I believe she will not refuse."

Sun Fu then smiled, "Then I will trouble Prime Minister Fang."

The next day, the sky was just dawning.

The mighty team set out again.

This journey lasted for more than half a month. Finally, at noon of this day, the fleeing team finally arrived outside the west gate of Lutai City.

But what made everyone frown was that not only did no one come out to greet them in Lutai City, but the city gate was closed.

You know, before they arrived, someone had come to inform them.

Now this scene, you can tell at a glance that there is a big problem.

Under the instruction of Prime Minister Fang Deyun, the commander of the imperial guards stepped forward and shouted loudly at the tower: "Who is the general on the city! Why don't you go down to the city to greet my emperor after seeing him!"

There was only an old man in white clothes who looked extremely old on the tower, leaning on an iron cane, standing in the cold wind and coughing constantly.

Only by carefully distinguishing can you see a little bit of Ye Kongming from his face.

And this Ye Kongming is the old city lord of Lutai City.

He once promised Sun Gan to help him overthrow the rule of Sun Kang's lineage and restore the orthodoxy of the Dayun royal family.

He is very old, 89 years old this year, and thought he would not see this day in his lifetime. Unexpectedly, when he was barely alive, he actually saw the miserable scene of Sun Kang's lineage.

He immediately felt much better. Looking at the team of thousands of people below, he laughed and said, "Who is Sun Fu? Come out and let me see you."

"How dare you! You can't call the emperor directly!" The guard leader's face sank when he heard it, and he shouted angrily.

At this time, the back of the city wall bunker was full of archers. Looking left and right, there were probably no less than 2,000 people.

And on the street behind the city gate, there was an endless silver-armored cavalry waiting in awe. The leader of this cavalry also had a head full of white hair. He was the former second in command of the Tiger Village, Zhao Tianlei.

However, time is ruthless, and Zhao Tianlei seems to be coming to the end.

On the city wall, Ye Kongming laughed so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes. "Emperor, hahaha, is he worthy of being called the emperor? He is just a traitor. The real emperor should be the crown prince! Not that lewd bastard Sun Kang!"

After the words fell, Sun Fu's face suddenly changed.

Others may not know, but he still knows something about the incident. His face immediately darkened. "How dare you insult the late emperor by talking nonsense here? Come on! Who will go up and take this man down for me!"

After the words fell, the commander of the imperial guards clasped his fists and said, "I am willing to go!"

Then he stepped suddenly and flew towards the city wall. He flew ten feet away and came to thirty feet outside the city wall after a few jumps. It seems that he is really capable.

"Looking for death!"

Seeing this, Ye Kongming's face darkened, and then he raised his arm. The archers hiding behind the bunker instantly pulled their bowstrings to full strength and stood up in unison.

The commander of the imperial guards was about to climb the wall with leverage.

Seeing this, his face suddenly changed, and he turned around to flee.

But he was still too slow, and he heard Ye Kongming shout "Shoot!" Suddenly, a rain of arrows flew towards the guard leader like locusts passing through.

In a blink of an eye, the guard leader with the fifth level of martial arts was shot into a hedgehog, with arrows all over his body, and then fell to the bottom of the city wall with a plop.

Seeing this, Sun Fu and others who were a mile away were shocked and angry.

Prime Minister Fang Deyun pointed at Ye Kongming, "Rebellious minister! How dare you, how dare you shoot the guard leader! Aren't you afraid of being executed!"

"Execute the nine clans? You are the ones who should be executed!"

Ye Kongming sneered and raised his hand again, "Shoot!"

Suddenly, countless arrows shot towards Sun Fu and his group, and the sharp arrows covered the sky and the sun, making people's scalps numb.

But the distance was still far enough. When the rain of arrows fell, the power was very small. Most of them were blocked by the guards' rattan armor shields. Only a few unlucky people were injured.

Sun Fu's eyes were red with anger, and he shouted: "Whoever helps me break this city, I will treat him as the national teacher!"

Tian Wanxi and others discussed secretly for a few words, then walked out and took the rattan armor shield from the guards, then held a shield in one hand and a weapon in the other, and flew towards the city wall in unison.

Suddenly, the rain of arrows came again.

However, this time, the effect was not so good. With the cooperation of the twenty outsiders, the rattan armor shield was directly formed into a large turtle shell, and in a moment, it came to the outside of the city wall.

Then, using the force to climb the wall, it came to the top of the city wall in an instant.

These people are basically above the fifth level of martial arts, and they are also experienced masters in the outside world, which is not comparable to these soldiers.

In the blink of an eye, a massacre was formed.

Ye Kongming came with a knife, but he was no match for the two outsiders. After a few moves, he was pierced through the heart by a sword. He moved his lips, and then fell unwillingly on the city wall.

On the street below, Zhao Tianlei opened the city gate and led the team to charge.

Five thousand Tianxiameng soldiers fought against three thousand imperial guards. The two sides fought for a while, but in the end, they died in hatred because of the twenty outsiders who came back to help.

This time, it was a miscalculation.

Under normal circumstances, the military strength of Lutai City is enough to crush the three thousand imperial guards, but they never expected that there would be so many masters around Sun Fu.

But fortunately, there were not many Tianxiameng high-level people who came to Lutai City this time. Except for the two veterans, the new generation of capable generals did not come here.

Otherwise, the loss this time would be incalculable.

Once the defeat was revealed, Tianxiameng no longer lingered in the battle. It seemed panic, but in fact it retreated in an orderly manner towards the direction of Yinlong Mountain.

In anger, Sun Fu sent imperial guards to pursue, but he was ambushed again and lost thousands of imperial guards. Only then did he order to stop the pursuit with a sullen face.

At this point, Lutai City belonged to Sun Fu, but Sun Fu, who got Lutai City, could not be happy.
