Three Kingdoms: Li Shimin, dressed as Liu Shan, forcibly abducts Sun Shangxiang.

Chapter 12: The Grand Chamberlain of the Han Dynasty pays homage to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!

"What Jiangdong soldiers?"

"It must be an assassin sent by Liu Bei. Now that General Zishan has been shot by an arrow, Liu Bei's army will probably be here in no time!"

"Liu Bei's army is attacking, and our commander has been killed in battle. What should we do?"

"What do we do? What should we do?"

"Let's get out of here, or it'll be too late!"

General Bu Zhi was struck by an arrow and fell from his horse.

A group of officers and soldiers witnessed it firsthand.

This happened on the battlefield, with millions of eyes watching. It was impossible to hide it even if you wanted to!

Coupled with the false information Liu Shan had previously released, morale plummeted and the army's formation faltered, causing the Wu army's soldiers to completely collapse in an instant!

At this moment, this force composed of righteous men from Jiaozhou was almost paralyzed...

Ma Liang had already noticed the turmoil on Wu Jun's side.

"Barbarian King, the time has come!"

Regardless of the reason for Bu Zhi's death, the fact that the Wu army is currently leaderless is undeniable. In any case, only by defeating the Wu army in front of them can they survive.

"With Bu Zhi dead, the Wu army's morale is in turmoil, and their formation is in disarray!"

"The moment to defeat the enemy is now!"

Shamoke quickly regained his senses and charged forward without hesitation: "Men of Wuxi, kill!!"

"kill!"

The soldiers of Wuxi shouted battle cries that shook the heavens!

Ma Liang also led his remaining soldiers to charge into the enemy formation!

Vast swathes of Han troops surged forward like a rising tide...

Dust and smoke billowed from the ground.

The tremors continued!

The Jiangdong army had not yet regrouped when the Han soldiers charged in...

"The Han army is attacking!"

"Gather in formation! Gather in formation quickly!"

"Pikemen, advance!"

"Archers, hurry... Ah!!!"

The two armies clashed again, and blood splattered everywhere!

"Follow me!"

With a roar, Shamoke charged forward, wielding his giant axe, and in a short while, he had carved a passage through the Wu formation!

Seeing that this barbarian king of Wuxi had already charged deep into the Wu army's formation.

Ma Liang immediately looked in another direction, where Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, and others were blocking the pursuers for Liu Shan.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei only had a little over a hundred men.

Even though everyone fought bravely, they were now surrounded by a large number of soldiers and were on the verge of collapse.

Ma Liang brandished his ring-pommel sword: "Charge forward!"

"Hurry! That troop ahead is about to give out!"

"kill!"

The one who shot Bu Zhi,

It must be the Han army, without a doubt!

At this critical moment, who else could possibly send someone to rescue his remaining army besides the emperor?

puff~

Ma Liang cleaved through the Wu soldier blocking his way with a single stroke, letting the scalding blood splatter all over his face.

His gaze

Looking in the direction where Liu Shan rode away...

"His Majesty,"

"You...you've really come back to fight your way back?"

……

puff~

"ah!!"

The pursuers in front of him fell to the ground.

Zhang Bao suddenly drew his spear!

Let the hot blood flow down the spear, winding its way onto his hands...

The sounds of fighting were incessant all around, and the roars and screams were deafening!

"Xingguo, how many people do we have left?"

"There are probably only a few dozen left!"

"Even if we all die here, we will hold off the pursuers for the Crown Prince!"

His Highness the Crown Prince has been fighting his way through Shimen Mountain...

Lu Xun was shot at Zigui City!

Just now, he charged into the enemy lines alone and shot down Bu Zhi!

If Your Highness, as the Crown Prince, is so willing to risk your life, then we two are utterly useless if we can't even hold off a pursuer for the Crown Prince!

"kill!!"

The two roared like thunder.

A crescent-shaped blade and a ten-foot spear, wielding both weapons simultaneously, their bodies covered in blood!

Like two nails, they were firmly rooted to the spot and never moved...

The number of guards around him decreased at a visible rate, and the fallen corpses had already piled up in heaps.

The pursuers were closing in from all sides.

suddenly,

A dense, dark mass of new troops surged in from behind Guan and Zhang...

Ma Liang's reinforcements have arrived!

"Push them down!"

"Get those Wu dogs under your control!"

"kill!"

Boom!

The Han army, riding high on morale, surged forward like a wave, utterly routing the pursuing Wu troops!

"Minister Ma?"

"Anguo, Xingguo? What are you two doing here?"

Ma Liang was stunned. He never expected that he had saved Guan Xing and Zhang Bao.

These two young generals are Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's sons, and the nephews of the current emperor!

His Majesty loved him dearly, always kept him by his side, and personally taught him.

But how could these two be like this now...?

With these thoughts in mind,

Ma Liang suddenly trembled.

"His Majesty has really come?!"

There's no mistake.

Absolutely not wrong!

Only in this way can we explain why these two people would appear here!

This naturally explains the large dragon flag on the high slope.

They matched.

Everything matches perfectly!

Doesn't that mean that everything the Wu scout said just now was true?!

His Majesty has indeed launched a second northern expedition!

Zigui City has truly fallen, and Lu Xun has indeed been wounded by an arrow...

The Han Dynasty's fortunes have indeed endured!

"Your Majesty?" Guan Xing and Zhang Bao were both stunned.

The two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Where did this emperor come from?

Ma Liang was extremely anxious: "Where is His Majesty? I must pay my respects immediately!"

"This, this..."

The two were speechless, unsure of what to say.

At this moment,

Suddenly, a commotion arose all around.

"The Dragon Flag and the Great Banner!"

"It's the Emperor's dragon banner!"

"His Majesty's dragon banner has been raised again!"

Dragon flag and banner?

Ma Liang suddenly turned around...

In front of the Han army's garrison,

A crimson banner stands tall in the wind, its five-clawed black dragon strong and majestic, seemingly about to soar into the sky!

It is the emperor's banner!

It is His Majesty's dragon banner!

Ma Liang's eyes suddenly reddened. Ever since the Emperor's defeat at Yiling, he had thought he would never see this banner again in his life, but unexpectedly...

"Your Majesty, I have arrived!"

"Minister Ma..."

Sizzle~

Before Guan Xing and Zhang Bao could explain, Ma Liang had already seized a soldier's warhorse and galloped towards the large banner.

"Giddy up! Giddy up!!"

Ma Liang kept whipping his mount.

He couldn't wait to appear beneath that dragon flag!

He still didn't understand where the emperor got the power to launch a second eastern expedition.

I don't understand why the emperor would disregard the rear and bring his last remaining civil and military officials with him.

They couldn't understand why Lu Xun had defended Zigui City with its well-trained troops, ample supplies, and strong defenses!

How did the Han army capture Zigui City, and how did they decisively defeat the main force of the Wu army...?

But none of that matters anymore!

As long as the emperor is safe and sound, even the worst situation can be stabilized, and there is still a chance for everything!

"minister!"

"The Grand Chamberlain of the Han Dynasty!"

"The Pacification Envoy of the Five Streams Barbarians!"

"Military Advisor Liang! Paying respects to the Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty!!"

The person has not yet arrived.

The sound of Ma Liang paying his respects to the emperor had already reached us.

He saw it.

I saw the emperor's banner, and that... no!

Ma Liang suddenly pulled on the reins, and his horse neighed and stopped.

Sizzle~

The figure beneath the great banner was not His Majesty! It was... that Wu cavalryman who shot and killed Bu Zhi!

Ma Liang was stunned.

Why is there a Wu soldier under the banner of the Han emperor?

Call ~

A strong wind blew, causing the crimson banner with dragon patterns to flutter wildly.

suddenly,

The cavalryman slowly raised his arm, untied the knot under his chin, and took off his helmet.

He slowly turned around...

A young face that Ma Liang recognized was revealed.

"you……"

This powerful Han Dynasty official was a heavy blow to the heart of the important minister of Shu Han.

He seemed to have witnessed something absurd, and he froze on his horse.

"too……"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince?!"
