Chapter 254 Taking Back Power
Chapter 254 Taking Back Power
Zhenbei King Hongxuan looked at He Zhili who had a greedy face.
"He Zhili, I have treated you well! I never thought you would stab me in the back."
"Stop talking about these useless things! What do you mean by backstabbing? We helped you conquer this world."
"Do you know how An Jingyi is doing now? He is the emperor of Dali, and he is living a comfortable life now! They are all your subordinates, why can he be the emperor! This is obviously partiality. Now An Jingyi will no longer obey you. I got the news that An Jingyi used special means to take out the slave Gu in his body. Haha, you didn't expect it!"
It seems that during the three months that he had been missing, the news had already reached the Dali Kingdom in southern Xinjiang.
As for the current situation of the Dafeng Kingdom, we don’t know either. From the Yingzhou area, we can tell that there is a great chaos due to the strong wind.
"Why are the swordsmen still standing there? No one will know that Hong Xuan has been killed now. Everyone knows that Zhenbei King Hong Xuan is dead, and he should not live in this world anymore!"
When Hongxuan heard what He Zhili said, he recalled what Taoist Qingxuan had said to him.
"The fate of an imperial nation is determined by destiny. At a certain stage, it will inevitably perish and be replaced by a new imperial dynasty. So the wheel of history moves forward. No country can last for thousands of years and never fall or perish."
These swordsmen were all He Zhili's confidants. They also participated in the operation of killing the Qilin Guards and were deeply trusted by He Zhili.
One of the axemen scolded:
"King of Zhenbei, even if you are the military god of Dafeng, you will still die under my sword and axe. Don't resist, I will give you a quick death!"
A hundred swordsmen surrounded them with swords and axes in their hands.
They thought that King Zhenbei would be frightened and scared out of his wits.
But something they never expected happened.
"You are a bunch of ants, you actually plotted to murder me, and you, He Zhili, actually dared to kill my Qilin Guards."
Hongxuan pulled out the Red Fire Sword directly from his space storage ring.
And his whole body was stained with flames.
The executioners in the hall and He Zhili, who was sitting on a high seat, were completely stunned.
"Are you a human or a ghost? Why is your entire body burning?"
He Zhili was frightened and screamed.
The swordsmen who were preparing to kill King Zhenbei were also stunned.
"Anyone who kills this king will go to hell immediately!"
Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan waved his hand and a puppet condensed from the earth element of the five elements appeared in the hall.
"What are you still standing there for! Hurry up and kill the King of Zhenbei! These are just tricks, they are fake, don't believe them."
Zhenbei King Hongxuan disappeared. He moved very quickly. When he appeared again, flames rose from He Zhili's body, and he was cut in half.
"Ah! No, I haven't sat on the throne long enough! I don't want to die!"
He Zhili roared twice and died instantly.
After Hong Xuan killed He Zhili, he did not stop, but rushed directly into the group of swordsmen.
These people never dreamed that they were originally hunting down Zhenbei King Hongxuan, but now they are the prey being killed instead.
"He is not the King of Zhenbei! How could the King of Zhenbei possess such a powerful force?"
"King Zhenbei, spare my life! King Zhenbei, I fought with you all over the country, please spare me, I was confused for a moment!"
Hongxuan did not stop and used his Red Fire Sword to kill these swordsmen and axemen.
Since his own Qilin Guards were killed by these swordsmen, how could he show mercy?
And now these swordsmen are his enemies.
"You have all betrayed me. I cannot keep you here."
After showing off all the swordsmen, he walked out of the hall.
Outside the hall, Zhou Wenbin was waiting.
"Call all the remaining soldiers and officers to the palace. If anyone dares not come, I will remove him from his post."
Throughout the land of Yingzhou, the news that King Hongxuan had returned had spread to all military camps.
"The King of Zhenbei has ordered all officers to gather in Dading. If anyone does not come, he will be dismissed from his post!"
Zhou Wenbin conveyed the instructions of Zhenbei King Hongxuan, and everyone received the instructions of Zhenbei King Hongxuan.
All the officers came into the hall.
King Zhenbei looked at the officers in the hall with an extremely ugly expression:
"You are all so courageous! You rebelled when I was not around, and even killed all of my Qilin Guards!"
These officers looked at King Zhenbei with great trepidation.
"He Zhili has been killed by me! Who among you participated in the operation to kill me, Qilinwei, please come forward honestly. If I find out, it will be a capital crime."
"Now I will give you a chance."
There were a total of three hundred people in the hall, all of whom were direct officers under the one hundred thousand soldiers.
I heard King Zhenbei say this.
A hundred people stood up.
Hong Xuan looked at the hundred people and said:
"All of you, the hundred of you, I will remove you from your official positions! Now, all of you leave the palace."
What Hongxuan wanted were obedient people, and there was no point in keeping him even if he killed his own personal guards. However, Zhenbei King Hongxuan had already told them that he would not kill them, but not killing them did not mean that he would not remove their official positions.
"King of Zhenbei, didn't you just say you wouldn't kill us? Didn't you say you could keep our official positions? That's why we stood up, otherwise who would stand up?"
When these one hundred non-commissioned officers came out of the hall.
King Hongxuan of Zhenbei ordered Zhou Wenbin to execute these one hundred people.
These people simply cannot stay.
There are more than 200 people left in the hall:
"Are there any accomplices of He Zhili among you?"
This time everyone was silent.
King Zhenbei looked at the silent 200 people and said with a smile:
"Since none of you are saying anything, then that means you agree!"
The two hundred officers were killed on the spot.
"These two hundred officers don't even know what happened, and the King of Zhenbei is going to kill them!"
Some officers shouted:
"Why did the King of Zhenbei want to kill us? Didn't we come to the palace? You said you would help us in the palace!"
Hongxuan looked at these people and said.
"You want to keep your positions! But now you are all corrupted! You questioned my orders and tacitly agreed that He Zhili had usurped the throne. How could I possibly spare your lives?"
The remaining two hundred officers shouted:
"Let's fight this Zhenbei King! He is the only one in this hall now, and we have 200 people. The Zhenbei King is sending himself to die."
One of the officers shouted loudly, which made all the officers think deeply. They were all going to die anyway.
"This is a golden opportunity. As long as we control the King of Zhenbei, the entire Yingzhou will be ours!"
"Kill, kill the King of Zhenbei!"
Two hundred officers drew their swords.
King Hongxuan was looking at these two hundred people:
"I have been waiting for you to take action for a long time. Come on, let me put an end to all of you!"
The classmate must eliminate these dead branches and leaves, eliminate these rebels, he can no longer continue to use these people as his subordinates.
So all of this was just an excuse for Hongxuan to regain power and military authority. The fastest way to gain military authority was through killing.
This is also what Wang Hongxuan is doing, and he knows it all too well.
