Eminent Official Ti Zhen's eyes revealed endless gloominess. He stared at Li Jian, who was like a god, and thought,"
"How did things turn out like this? Did someone leak the news? Otherwise, Bing Province would already be in his hands, and the beauties, wealth, youth, and food would already be on their way home.”
Xue Yantuo was made up of the Xue tribe and the Yantuo tribe. Grand Secretary Ti Zhen was the general of the Xue tribe.
Ali Shihan of the Yantuo tribe was the deputy commander.
In the past, both tribes had sent out 25,000 men each to launch a sneak attack on Bingzhou.
"Continue fighting! Take down Bingzhou City!"
Seeing Emissary Tizhen fall into the hands of the Tang, Deputy Commander Ali Shihan bellowed. He wished that Emissary Tizhen would die here.
Before he could finish his sentence, Alishihan felt a chill on his neck. Blood spurted out in front of his eyes, reaching a height of five feet!
Xue Yantuo's soldiers saw Ali Shihan fall to the ground and never get up again.
At the same time, Li Jian had also stabbed Esteemed Ti Zhen in the throat and he died.
In the blink of an eye, he had killed two Xue Yantuo generals!
"Retreat! Retreat!" Xue Yantuo's supervisor shouted.
There was no suspense in the battle, no matter how many Xue Yantuo's soldiers were.
Because two of their generals had been killed, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
"The enemy has retreated!"
The soldiers guarding Bingzhou City cheered.
At this moment, Bingzhou City was filled with arrows. Beneath the city walls, there were piles of Xue Yantuo's soldiers 'corpses.
The black mass of Xue Yantuo's soldiers had failed just as Bingzhou City was about to fall.
Everyone in and out of the city knew that it was the white-robed general who had driven away Xue Yantuo's men who were like wolves and tigers.
At this moment, Li Jian ordered Li Jing to lead the army in pursuit.
Li Jing firmly obeyed Li Jian's orders and trusted him.
"Don't move the soldiers in the city, only use the soldiers outside the city. Kill the enemies within a hundred miles and return to the city immediately.”Li Jian said to Li Jing.
"Yes, sir! Your Highness!"
Li Jing whipped his horse whip and his subordinates raised their arms and followed Li Jing to chase after Xue Yantuo's defeated army.
The city gates of Bingzhou were wide open. Li Jian walked in front alone on a horse. Behind her were her personal eunuch and servant.
At the back were the trembling officials of Bingzhou. The corpse of the governor of Bingzhou, Rao Dacang, had been given to the wild dogs to make delicious food.
After entering the city, Li Jian sat in the main hall of the Bingzhou Provincial Governor's Office. He looked at the two rows of officials who were submissive.
A gust of wind blew through the hall. Li Jian's long hair fluttered, adding a sense of majesty.
In the intense battle, Li Jian wasn't injured. There wasn't even any blood on her body. It was as if she had never participated in the battle.
After this battle, Li Jian's prestige had been established in the hearts of the officials of Bingzhou. In their hearts, the figure of this twelve-year-old young man in front of them had become majestic.
Because they had offended Li Jian before, they were so scared that they didn't dare to look at her directly.
In the hall, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
After Rao Dacang's death, Luo Fuhua held the highest position among the officials. His face had long lost all color.
Li Jian glanced at Luo Fuhua coldly and said calmly,""Do you know your crimes?"
"Guilty! Please forgive me, Your Highness!" All the officials bowed in unison, their voices short and humble.
Hearing this, Li Jian's expression paused slightly and he said sternly,"
"If this king wants to investigate your performance today, all of you will be executed on the spot!”
"Rao Dacang is already dead, so I can forgive you. However, this king will say this. In the future, if any of you offend this king again, your crimes will be increased.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's hearts tightened. Li Jian had already told them clearly that they had to follow him and listen to everything he said. Otherwise, they would end up like Rao Dacang.
He might even die a worse death than Rao Dacang.
Under the deterrence of Li Jian's huge aura, coupled with the military merits that he had just built up in the city, the officials of Bingzhou recognized the reality.
In an instant, the chief historian Luo Fuhua was the first to kneel down on one leg and respectfully said,""Your Highness is mighty! We are sincerely convinced. From now on, we will follow Your Highness's lead!”
The other officials all followed Luo Fuhua's example and knelt on one knee.
Either obey or perish. What a simple choice.
The officials of Bingzhou had collectively pledged their loyalty to Li Jian, and Li Jian had seized the military and political power of Bingzhou.
In the main hall, the eunuch Zheng Ji and the errand boy Wang Yong beside Li Jian were extremely shocked. They had followed Li Jian for many years, but they had never realized that their master had such domineering and exquisite wisdom. This kind of civil administration and martial arts were outstanding in the world today!
The shocking reversal of events at Bingzhou City had happened under the watchful eyes of everyone. Li Jian's ability and combat strength were second to none. They had been deeply engraved in the hearts of the soldiers and civilians of Bingzhou.
Li Jian was able to rule Bingzhou easily.
Facing the officials kneeling on one knee in the hall, Li Jian said coldly,""Although this king has exempted you from the crime of disrespecting this king today, this king is telling you that from now on, put away all your greed, selfishness, and doing whatever you want.”
