“kill!”

Fan Mang swung his sword and roared with a ferocious look.

Liu Xiu waved his sword and ordered his generals to split into countless small teams to erode Fan Mang’s army.

As for Liu Xiu himself, he personally led an army of 100,000, stayed in the military camp, and took on the most dangerous task of resisting the attack from Fan Mang’s army.

The nobles with military merit and their private armies, which grew from small to large, are skilled in martial arts and know how to cooperate, making them suitable for leading a large force with a small number.

It would be such a pity if they were scattered and became cannon fodder for cold weapons.

It was precisely because Liu Xiu understood the strengths of the military nobles that this distribution made the military nobles sincerely convinced.

Gou Shi was right, Liu Xiu was indeed the most talented person.

The armies began to collide, countless blood splattered, and limbs danced wildly in the air.

Liu Xiu led the veterans of Qianlong City to defend the weak point of the central army.

Because of this, the shaky central army defense line was not breached at all.

The Liu family flag flying in the air is so dazzling.

Fan Mang was so angry that he vomited blood again. He waved his sword and ordered the 100,000 most elite troops from Beijing to charge forward.

Along the way, loyal generals gave advice.

The Hu people, overseas slaves, had evil ambitions, and the 100,000 Beijing troops were the trump card to protect Fan Mang.

If the Beijing army was gone, even if the war was won, the Qing Kingdom would no longer belong to the Han people.

It would be better to use the Hu people and overseas slaves as cannon fodder to consume the energy of the alliance of military merit nobles.

These words touched the hearts of the people and were indeed statements of utmost loyalty. Fan Mang knew this, and he directly rewarded these people by having their heads and bodies separated.

One hundred thousand Beijing troops rushed to the central army reluctantly with swords and guns in hand.

At this time, the nobles with military merit, who were divided into countless small teams, appeared and gave earnest advice in front of the Beijing army.

These military nobles have served in the Beijing army for generations, as officials and generals, and have deep roots and considerable influence.

While the Beijing army was still hesitating, countless explosions were heard behind Fan Mang.

The five thousand musketeers arranged by Liu Xiu, carrying more than a dozen heavy artillery, walked on the muddy road and took a detour of thirty miles.

Like a divine army descending from the sky, they launched a rebellion in the rear of Fan Mang’s army.

No matter what, Fan Mang had already lost this battle.

The army in the rear was not prepared at all, and the use of cold weapons against hot weapons was almost a one-sided massacre.

Fan Mang was seriously ill and did not think about this. The Hu generals under his command were not used to fighting with hot weapons and did not understand these things.

Seeing this, Liu Xiu burst into laughter.

Riding a tall horse, he rushed towards the Beijing army.

The personal attendant hurriedly stopped Liu Xiu and advised him out of instinct for safety.

“Your Highness, now that I have the upper hand, why bother trying to persuade the rebels of the Beijing Army to surrender?”

Liu Xiu broke free from his attendant and shouted angrily.

“What nonsense! We are all Han Chinese. The Beijing army is just deceived. The soldiers and officers are just following orders.”

“Can they march without orders in the military and disobey the orders of the generals above?”

After saying this, Liu Xiu raised the Liu family’s banner and the flag fluttered.

The white horse seemed to have a soul. It passed countless soldiers and leaped in front of the Beijing army that had stopped moving forward.

“I wish to be the left lapel for the Liu family!”

Liu Xiu roared, and his tall and upright figure appeared in front of the Beijing army.

The soldiers of the Beijing Army looked at each other and silently put down their swords and guns.

The middle and upper-level generals loyal to Fan Mang were unwilling to surrender, and were tied up by their own soldiers and handed over to Liu Xiu for punishment.

Many nobles with military merits dispersed, cutting the battlefield into sections.

Fan Mang’s whole body was cold as he watched all this and let out a long sigh.

“The failure to overthrow the Han Dynasty was not due to human effort, but destiny!”

Liu Xiu led hundreds of soldiers and charged all the way.

The surrounding Hu people and overseas slaves felt the bravery of the Han people, and the fear dormant in their blood began to beat.

No one stopped Liu Xiu. They watched him appear in front of Fan Mang like a god.

“The Han Dynasty treated the Fan family well, why did you rebel?”

The cold sword was pressed against Fan Mang’s neck, and Liu Xiu snorted coldly.

Fan Mang was not at all panicked. Instead, he showed a look of resentment and stopped talking.

Liu Xiu was about to get angry, but he held back and spoke angrily.

“If you didn’t want to save your life and reduce the sacrifice of Han people, you would have died.”

“Do you know what you have done? The Central Plains is in turmoil, the Hu people, the overseas slaves have tasted the sweetness, and the overseas vassal kings are ready to make a move.” “Even if we wait for the return of a million Han troops, it will take a hundred years to break the backbones of these people.”

“And you, Fan Mang, are a sinner of the Han people, a sinner of the Han people!”

Speaking of this, Fan Mang showed a puzzled look, a smile appeared on his face, and he spoke softly.

“The Han army can’t come back, guess why the overseas vassal kings are willing to support me?”

“The port is closed, the Han army is short of food and clothing, and lacks firearms. Even if they are elite, without firearms, one person can defeat ten people, but what if they face a hundred people?”

Liu Xiu felt cold all over, and finally understood what Fan Mang had done to make the Hu people, overseas slaves, and overseas vassal kings support him.

He sent all of the Han Empire’s invincible million-strong army away to bury the hegemony of the Han Empire.

“No!”

Liu Xiu let out a shrill roar and killed the Han traitor Fan Mang without hesitation.

But his face was also filled with tears, as if he had seen the collapse of the Han Empire’s hegemony, with Han families in mourning and crying.

“Emperor Gao, please save your people?”

Deep within Emperor Gao’s mausoleum, countless spirit tablets were shaking constantly.

Wuzhu seemed to sense something, and for the first time a look of sadness appeared on his face.

“The only friend I had in this world is gone after all.”

The spirit tablet with hazy white light shattered, burning with holy flames, the space that Liu Xiu had once entered.

Countless founding heroes, Liu Hong’s wife, and children, sensed something, and disappeared like machines.

They were originally characters fabricated by Liu Hong based on his memory, to accompany him through the dark and lonely times.

Now that Liu Hong is gone, they naturally no longer exist.

Liu Hong slowly stood up and looked at every corner of the world.

Countless allied forces of vassal kings and overseas people forced the Han army back to the port.

The steamship lacked coal and oil and could not move at all, and its firearms were destroyed.

The Han army could only hold something like a fire stick, endure hunger, and fight these rebels.

“The Han Dynasty is indeed great. Among the Han emperors, there has never been a single incompetent ruler.”

A blond man spoke in fluent Han Chinese and sighed.

“It’s a pity that your dynasty was destroyed! If you surrendered, you still had a chance to survive.”

In response to these people’s attempts to surrender, the Han army simply spat at them and raised their heads proudly.

“We are Han Chinese in life and Han Chinese in death. How can we possibly submit to being slaves?”

What followed was a more fierce offensive, and countless Han soldiers were killed on the spot.

Liu Hong looked at all this with an expressionless face, but his whole body was burning with flames.

“I am Emperor Gao, the founder of the Han Dynasty!”

“Those who oppress the Han people shall die!”

As the voice fell, Liu Hong disappeared along with hundreds of spirits.

Hundreds of meteorites appeared in the skies around the world, burning with raging flames, rushing towards these traitors.

Countless Han soldiers looked up at the sky, and miraculously there was no fear in their hearts. Instead, they felt a lot of sorrow.

The Emperor Gao, who protected the Han Dynasty, used up all his life’s energy to summon the meteorite, and he was probably really dead.

On the contrary, the rebels around the world showed horror on their faces, and the local princes who colluded with people overseas also felt the coming of death.

“Rumble…”

When the meteorite fell, the Han army was safe and sound, but no remains of the foreigners were found.

Liu Xiu was cleaning the battlefield when tears suddenly flowed from his eyes and he looked back.

It was discovered that both the military nobles and the Han soldiers were in tears. They all felt the Emperor Gao’s actions.

Liu Xiu wiped the tears from his eyes, wiped out the remaining forces of Fan Mang in the south, and hurried back to Kyoto.

The first thing he did was not to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, but to mobilize all the steamships in the country to bring the Han army back to their hometown.

Everyone was silent, their hearts filled with panic.

Emperor Gao is really dead, what will be the future of the Han Dynasty?

Of the one million Han troops, only 800,000 were left. After returning, they covered their faces and cried.

Liu Xiu assumed the responsibility of emperor and issued the first summons in his life.

“Three hundred years have passed, and the Emperor Gao is still protecting his people. The descendants of the Emperor Gao will also fight for the stability of the Han Dynasty all their lives!”

“The spirit of Emperor Gao is in heaven. May the Han Dynasty live forever!”
