History’s Strongest Husband

Chapter 374 Ravaging Chu State! Great Shame!

"Where is the queen?"

"Where is Privy Envoy Lian Jing?"

"Where are the sons of King Chu?"

"Where is King Chu's concubine?"

Shen Lang's army has blocked several palace gates.

On the square outside the palace, tens of thousands of people kneeled neatly.

Most of them were eunuchs and court ladies, and some were warriors who had previously retreated to the palace.

But all the important members are missing.

Even the eunuch didn't see many of them.

Did they escape from the palace?

Or is it hiding in the underground secret room of the palace?

"Who is willing to answer me?" Shen Lang asked loudly.

The maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground were trembling, and the warriors were gnashing their teeth. Even though they were looking at the ground, their eyes were full of deep-seated hatred.

Shen Lang said: "Where did the queen go? Where did Privy Envoy Lian Jing go? Who can tell me? Even if I don't know!"

Still no one answered.

"If you want to kill, you can kill, there is nothing to say." Suddenly, a voice roared angrily.

"Whoosh..."

Before his voice fell, an arrow directly pierced his head.

Shen Lang's eyes fell on these court ladies and eunuchs.

Because the concubine of the king of Chu is likely to dress up as a court lady, and the son of the king of Chu may dress up as a condition to get out.

"This person, this person, this person..."

Shen Lang pointed his finger at the crowd, and then one after another Nirvana soldiers charged into the crowd and grabbed them out.

"What are you doing? What are you going to do? We are just little court ladies!" these beautiful women shouted.

Shen Lang said: "How can a palace maid have such good skin, as plump as it is? The palace maid still has a jewel of jade in her body?"

These women are either the concubines of the King of Chu, or the daughters of the King of Chu

"That kid, that, that, catch them all..."

Following Shen Lang's order, six young eunuchs were pulled out.

Eunuchs have chickens? If this is not the son of King Chu, what is it?

Under Shen Lang's piercing eyes, all the nobles among the court ladies and eunuchs were picked out.

But none of the key figures.

"Tell me, did the queen run away?" Shen Lang squatted in front of a concubine and asked.

The woman trembled all over, shook her head and said, "No, I don't know, I really don't know."

She really doesn't know.

This time Shen Lang didn't just want to capture the capital, the key was to capture Queen Chu and others.

In this way, he can easily leave Chu State by using these people as hostages in the future.

His army didn't want to leave the snow mountain thousands of miles away.

But if he wanted to leave normally, he would definitely be chased and intercepted by the Chu army.

Now that he has successfully captured the capital of the Chu Kingdom, he doesn't want to fight any more big battles.

Moreover, only by capturing the Queen of Chu for a big exhibition can the effect of this victory be brought to the extreme.

After asking several people, none of them knew the queen's whereabouts.

And it really doesn't look like a lie.

This queen of Chu is quite ruthless and not very popular. There are many people in the palace who secretly hate her.

So her whereabouts were hidden from almost everyone.

Shen Lang checked with X-rays. There are three secret passages leading to the outside in the entire Chu Palace. He had already sent people to block the exits of these secret passages, and there was no sign of the Queen of Chu and others.

"The queen has been burned to death, she will not surrender." Suddenly a warrior shouted: "If you want to capture the queen, dream."

"Whoosh..."

Another arrow shot straight through his head.

Shen Lang sneered, you said Ning Yuanxian would commit suicide and Concubine Bian would commit suicide, I believe it.

Would a woman like Queen Chu commit suicide?

How can it be?

Alright, Shen Lang almost understood.

"Except for the maids and eunuchs, kill them all!"

He ordered.

The Second Nirvana Army, the sharpshooter of the Shaman tribe bent his bow and set his arrows.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Incomparably precise point kill.

The last batch of warriors in the capital of the King of Chu were all killed, a total of two or three thousand people.

They wanted to resist, but before they could rush out, they were immediately headshot by bows and arrows.

Next, Shen Lang will rely on this army of less than 10,000 people to control the entire capital.

There can be no benevolence of any woman, and no hidden dangers can be left behind.

Then, Shen Lang said to the court ladies and eunuchs present: "You all find a place to hide, but please remember one thing, you can't appear on the four avenues, otherwise you will be killed!"

"Thank you son, thank you son!"

Thousands of court ladies and eunuchs fled one after another.

Shen Lang ordered: "The Second Nirvana Army left 500 people, and all the remaining people will join the Third Nirvana Army to defend the city wall of the King's Capital of Chu. Next, troops from all walks of life in the Chu Kingdom will continue to come to try to support the King's Capital! This is probably the best chance for a massacre."

"yes!"

2,500 people from the Second Nirvana Army, and more than 4,000 people from Queen Shaman, left the palace square and headed for the city wall of the royal capital.

Shen Lang led the first Nirvana Army of 2,000 people, and continued to besiege the palace, waiting for the fire to go out and catch the turtle in the urn.

He really wanted to know whether the fire in the palace was extinguished sooner, or the first support army from Chu came sooner!

………………

It turns out.

The construction materials of the Chu Palace were very qualified. The wood was so good that it burned for a whole day and night, and the fire did not go out.

Shen Lang watched these palaces collapse one after another.

What a crime.

When Xiang Yu burned Efang Palace back then, he didn't know what kind of mood he was in.

But at least Shen Lang didn't have much satisfaction.

Of course, there is not much regret.

The flames in the entire palace gradually diminished, turning into thick smoke soaring into the sky.

It can be seen clearly almost hundreds of miles away.

At the beginning, some people tried to come to fight the fire, but they gave up just after showing up.

About fifteen hours later!

Chu's first support army arrived, about 20,000 people.

This person is Chen Shen, the prefect of Yan County.

When he looked up, he found that there was already a big Ning character hanging on the wall of the capital city.

The prefect of Chu State couldn't believe it.

After he learned that the Yue army had raided the king's capital of Chu, he immediately gathered all the civilian troops in the county to come to support him, and after traveling day and night, he finally arrived.

I thought that we could cooperate with the defenders of the capital to completely annihilate the Yue army.

Unexpectedly, the capital has already fallen.

This...how is this possible?

The entire King of Chu has tens of thousands of troops.

According to intelligence, Shen Lang and Ning Zheng's army that came to attack the capital of the capital was less than 10,000.

In less than two days, it has fallen?

The royal capital is one of the most fortified cities in the world. Under normal circumstances, there is no army of 100,000, and they don't even have the courage to attack.

What kind of means does Shen Lang have to reach the sky, relying on less than 10,000 people, he won it in just one day?

Next, the prefect of the Chu State looked at the Vietnamese army on the city wall, there were only about 6,000 people.

He suppressed the thought of attempted assault.

There was no negotiation, but immediately dispatched knights to report to King Chu.

Then he did not leave, and led an army of 20,000 to surround a corner of the city wall, waiting for the arrival of other reinforcements.

……………………

The fire in the Chu Palace burned for two days and two nights, and finally gradually extinguished.

The originally beautiful palace was completely reduced to ruins.

Most of the palaces collapsed.

Most of the palaces of this era are made of wood, especially the pillars and beams.

Now only the dark ruins remain.

This royal palace has a history of more than 300 years, and it was expanded to this scale by successive kings of Chu.

How much did it cost in total to build the palace?

It is completely impossible to count, and it is definitely an astonishing astronomical figure.

If one wanted to build an identical palace again, even with the strength of Chu, it would take at least several decades.

So Shen Lang's fire was enough to make the entire Chu country vomit blood.

The key point is that this is a completely devastating blow to the majesty of Chu State.

………………

Shen Lang led the First Nirvana Army into the palace to search.

According to his judgment, the queen of Chu, several princes, the important concubines of the king of Chu, and the privy envoy Lian Jing are still in the palace.

Because the fall of King Chu was too fast and sudden, these people had no time to escape.

So it can only be in the underground chamber.

And if Shen Lang guessed correctly, these underground secret rooms should be under the pool.

The fire burned the entire palace, there will be a lot of deadly smoke, and it will also cause hypoxia. The most deadly thing is that once the smoke penetrates into the underground chamber, the people inside will be choked to death.

Therefore, the secret room is built under the pool, and the vitality is greater.

If it were someone else, trying to find the entrance to the underground secret room amidst the ruins would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

But Shen Lang has X-ray eyes.

Only half an hour later!

He found it.

The secret room was indeed near the pool, and there was an underground waterway around the secret room.

The entrance is in a pile of ruins.

Li Qianqiu and Ku Touhuan stepped forward to investigate.

"My lord, the entrance is a thick iron gate!"

Thermite comes in handy again.

Stick it directly on the iron door, and put a combustion aid on it.

"boom……"

A burst of dazzling white light.

The astonishing temperature emitted by the thermite directly burned through the thick iron door.

Then there were bursts of exclamations in the underground secret room.

Li Qianqiu obviously felt a murderous intent.

Moreover, he is a master at the level of a grand master, guarding the entrance of the underground secret room.

This is normal, there are great masters and masters sitting in the Yue Palace, and of course the Chu Palace also has them.

Moreover, this entrance is so small that it can be called a one-man gate, and Wan Fu cannot open it.

There is a big master-level powerhouse guarding there, and there are probably hundreds or thousands of people.

However, Shen Lang said nothing.

Throw a poison gas bomb in directly.

Of course, the so-called gas bombs are not real biological weapons.

The effect is not even as good as tear gas. The most contained content is the extracted chili powder, and there are some strong irritating gases.

But who is in the secret room?

Queen Chu, several favored concubines, several princes and princesses.

How pampered.

For the past two days and nights, they were already in extreme panic and could barely breathe.

Shen Lang's self-made tear gas bomb exploded.

The intense stimulation at that moment was completely unbearable.

The eyes could not be opened, as if they were completely burned, and they were about to go blind.

His throat was on fire and he couldn't breathe at all.

It was really torture like hell.

"Ah... ah... ah..."

There was a burst of howling and howling.

Shen Lang said lightly: "Queen Chu, are you going to stay inside, or come out and surrender?"

But Queen Chu could no longer make a sound.

After a long while, Queen Chu said hoarsely: "Ning Zheng, Shen Lang, aren't you afraid of offending the gods? You did something so harmful to the peace of heaven?"

Immediately, without saying a word, Shen Lang threw another poison gas bomb into it.

"Ah... ah... ah..."

"We're going to die, we're going to die, we surrendered, don't throw it away..."

It wasn't Queen Chu who screamed, but another woman's voice, and a boy's howling.

In a quarter of an hour!

Everyone in the secret room came out.

Shen Lang saw an old eunuch, his eyes were red and swollen like peaches, but he still tightly protected the lord.

This posture made Shen Lang sound like Li Mu beside Ning Yuanxian,

This old eunuch is also a master-level powerhouse.

Shen Lang took out a bottle of things and said: "Elder-in-law, you are a master-level powerhouse, we are worried, so please drink this bottle of medicine, and you will be fine after a few days of sleep. I don't want to cut off your blood. Tendons and hamstrings."

The old eunuch trembled and fell into hesitation.

As soon as Shen Lang raised his hand, hundreds of bows and arrows aimed at Queen Chu and several princes.

As long as the grand master-level eunuch said no, Shen Lang would immediately shoot these nobles of Chu country into hedgehogs.

The old eunuch glanced at Shen Lang.

The eyes are very complicated, but there is not much hatred.

"Why!"

After a sigh.

He directly drank the small bottle of potion given by Shen Lang.

Then.

He fell straight down, completely unconscious.

For the next few days and nights, he would never wake up again.

Queen Chu's eyes became more red and swollen, and she looked at Shen Lang full of grief and anger.

Even deep-seated hatred.

"What are you looking at me like that for?" Shen Lang asked.

Queen Chu said coldly: "Shen Lang, you will suffer retribution. But it is not God's retribution, but the whole world's retribution for you. From now on, you will be the mortal enemy of our Chu country, the mortal enemy of eternal life."

"Really? I'm so scared..." Shen Lang said: "If I were you, I would definitely shut up completely and be a prisoner obediently, wouldn't it be good?"

Shen Lang waved his hand.

Immediately, two warriors stepped forward and tightly grasped the Queen Chu's hands.

"What do you want to do? I am the Queen of Chu, what do you want to do?" Queen Chu screamed frantically.

Shen Lang took out a needle.

It was directly inserted into Queen Chu's groin lymphatic site, and then all the liquid inside was injected into it.

Queen Chu screamed in fear: "Shen Lang, what did you hit me? What did you hit?"

"You will know in a few days." Shen Lang said: "This is a punishment for your rude words just now, if you continue to babble, I guarantee that you will not be able to survive, and you will not be able to die. Don't force me to pour ten catties of shit on you , be a decent prisoner, okay?"

Queen Chu trembled all over.

"Let me ask you, is that okay?" Shen Lang asked.

Queen Chu nodded.

"I don't want to nod, can I ask you to answer?" Shen Lang said coldly.

"Okay, okay!" Queen Chu cried.

She had never been so humiliated.

However, she was far less proud and brave than she imagined.

At this time, it was still fear that ruled her spirit.

"Okay, let's go to the big street parade." Shen Lang said: "Prepare a carriage, load the queen of Chu, several princes, and princesses, and start to go around the streets of the capital of Chu, so that everyone can see clearly , and this is their queen."

Next!

A more embarrassing scene happened.

The Queen of Chu and all the nobles, wearing gold paper shackles, stood on the carriage and paraded through the streets.

"Everyone came to see, this is the Queen of Chu, these are the concubines, and they are all the sons of the King of Chu."

"The Great Exhibition of the Chu Royal Family..."

"People of Chu King's Capital, come and see your queen!"

Really countless people flocked out to watch.

The first thing they feel is great shame.

And then disappointment!

Why don't these high-ranking royal families commit suicide?

Why don't you want to die to fulfill the dignity of the Chu country, but you have to be humiliated by the Yue people like this?

And Queen Chu, how lofty and respectful she is at ordinary times, how respectful she is to the world?

At this time, he was so embarrassed, his face was full of tears, and his body was trembling.

And there was a puddle of wetness in the middle of the skirt.

Are you scared to pee?

This is really not true, it was Shen Lang who made someone splash it on it.

For several hours!

The walk around the street is over.

Countless people in Chu King's Capital can see clearly.

Countless people were angry, and countless people howled.

But the image of the royal family in their minds collapsed almost instantly.

………………………

Three days later!

Under the capital of the king of Chu, there are densely packed Chu troops.

All the reinforcements from the surrounding cities and counties came, a total of 60,000 to 70,000 people.

But almost all of them are local defenders.

There are only less than 20,000 real front-line elites.

The sun had just risen this day.

The reinforcements from Chu State outside the city saw the eye-opening scene.

Their Queen Chu appeared on the top of the city, looking haggard and frightened.

Because the virus in her body seems to have broken out?

Herpes is all over the body, especially the wet corners.

And back, belly, arms.

Densely dense, extremely terrifying.

The pain and itching seemed to emerge from the cracks in the bones.

It made him unable to sleep for days and nights, and all his will and pride were completely destroyed.

Haggard and embarrassing, she didn't look like the high-ranking Queen of Chu before.

"Ning Zheng, Shen Lang, you are despicable, despicable..."

"Shen Lang, if you have the guts to fight us with swords and guns? What kind of heroes are the queen and princes as hostages?"

"Shen Lang, you lowly man, you actually use a woman as a hostage?"

The reinforcement generals of Chu State under the city cursed loudly.

Shen Lang sneered and said: "First, I am not a hero. Second, I have no intention of using the Queen of Chu as a hostage to force you to surrender. I just let you see what the Queen looks like now. Are you optimistic about it now? Did you see it clearly?"

"See clearly?"

"It should be clear."

Shen Lang said: "Take the empress queen down!"

Queen Chu was taken away.

Shen Lang turned to the reinforcements from Chu State below and said, "Didn't you say to fight with real swords and guns? Now you can start!"

"Come on, come on, come on!"

This humble look of contempt completely angered the generals of Chu's reinforcements.

"Siege the city! Kill all the Yue people, rescue the queen, and save the prince!" The general of the Chu reinforcements shouted.

Then, 60,000 to 70,000 Chu troops attacked the city frantically!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

The Second Nirvana Army, the Sand Man tribe's sharpshooter army shot wildly with arrows.

It's so cool to be condescending!

Another one-sided massacre!

Two hours later!

The war is over!

Of Chu's 60,000 to 70,000 reinforcements, the casualties exceeded 20,000, and the rest fled.

Shen Lang shouted from the top of the city: "My lords, remember to come again! Call all the reinforcements around, I won't leave, I will wait for you here!"

"Queen Chu is not leaving either, you must remember to come, next time bring an army of one hundred thousand!"

After hearing Shen Lang's words, the fleeing generals of the reinforcement army of Chu State and the prefects of several counties felt ashamed and angry.

Then, no more reinforcements will come.

The strongest troops in the entire Chu State are all on the front line, and they are all under the command of the King of Chu.

I don't know how the king of Chu will react after hearing the bad news?

What will it do.
