Lu Qichang walked forward half a step and replied in a low voice: "There are probably more than 50,000 people left."

Shi Le sighed slightly, his expression dim

With more than 50,000 people, Long Chen still has hundreds of thousands of troops, it seems that the situation is already finalized.

Pu Xuan and Tang Guolong had no news, and Us' assistance could no longer be counted on.

The situation was developing beyond everyone's imagination. I thought this battle could last for several years, but in less than a year, Xingqing City was captured.

"Okay, let's go down."

Shi Le slowly stood up, walked out of the hall with heavy steps, and walked towards the harem alone.

Lu Qichang and Le Min looked at Shi Le's back. Neither of them said anything, and each took the general out to prepare for defense.

Shi Le walked into the harem with heavy steps, and there was chaos inside. The palace maids and eunuchs hurriedly ran around.

They felt the fear of a catastrophe like ants, but they were powerless and didn't know what to do, so they could only run around in despair.

When a person is weak, he can only struggle in despair when encountering danger, watching the giant wheel of fate run over his body.

When the palace maids and eunuchs saw Shi Le, they all hid, but Shi Le ignored them and walked to the Taizu Temple alone.

The majestic Taizu held a wooden sword in both hands and looked in the direction of the Golden Palace.

Taizu's original wooden sword was passed away by Long Chen. After discovering it in the palace, he changed to a wooden sword with a similar appearance, fish-like mixed bead.

Shi Le stopped in front of Taizu's wooden statue, looked up at Taizu's holy elephant, and slowly knelt down.

Taizu Shi Potian was the founding emperor of Xixia. Shi Le only knelt at this wooden statue, and even the Supreme Emperor, Shi Le never knelt down.

"Taizu started from the underworld and followed the Martial Saint for thirteen years to fight, made countless contributions, and was granted the title of King of Xixia. Daxia was established. It has been 362 years since then, and has lived in twelve kings."

"The unworthy descendants, and three hundred years of foundation will be destroyed by the thief today."

Shi Le looked at the holy elephant and felt sad.

When the Emperor Taizu of Western Xia followed the Martial Saint to fight south and north, pacified the nations, and was named King of Western Xia, which led to the founding of today's Daxia.

With more than three hundred years of foundation, in less than a year, Long Chen was beaten outside the palace.

"Taizu has spirits in heaven, please bless Daxia!"

Shi Le couldn't think of any other way, so he could only pray to a wooden statue.

The wood statue stands there without saying a word.

Shi Le worshipped the statue and returned to the bedroom.

Ma Fang came in to serve him, and Shi Le said coldly: "Call all the concubines, princesses, and princesses in the palace!"

Ma Fang had bad guesses in his heart, and I'm afraid Shi Le would do something bad, but as a slave, he could not resist the order.

Living in the palace for a lifetime, the most important thing for him was to follow the orders.

Ma Fang immediately sent someone to invite concubines, princesses and princes from each palace.

Soon, all kinds of concubines, princesses and princesses gathered in the bedroom.

There are 51 concubines, 39 princesses, and 25 princes.

Shi Le has many princesses, but the most favored princess is Shi Jingxiang, and the most respected princes are Shi Haoran and Shi Yuncheng.

Now, Shi Jingxiang has defected to Long Chen, and Shi Haoran and Shi Yun have been killed in Chengdu.

More than a hundred people gathered together, and the wide bedroom suddenly seemed smaller.

Everyone stood below, Shi Le looked a little scary, and no one dared to speak out, standing quietly, waiting for the order.

Looking at the people below, Shi Le sighed slightly in his heart and said, "Long Cheng'en has been killed outside the palace, and the palace has been surrounded."

After hearing what Shi Le said, the people below were not much surprised, they had known it a long time ago.

"You are the concubines of Daxia, the princess of Daxia, and the prince of Daxia, and the dignity of Daxia."

"If the palace falls, you can only sacrifice your country, and you cannot be afraid of death."

"You all know what Long Chengen is. If you fall into his hands, you will be worse than death!"

The concubines and princess below were still scared when they heard this.

Long Chen scrambled into the palace twice, and they heard a lot of mixed rumors, saying that Concubine Shu was played with by Long Chen until her death, and her methods were extremely perverted and cruel.

"Ma Fang, go and bring the medicine!"

Shi Le ordered Ma Fang to go in and get the medicine immediately.

Ma Fang had already guessed that Shi Le brought these concubines, princesses and princes together, to make them die together.

There were a lot of poisons, and Ma Fang couldn't get it all by himself. The two eunuchs helped to carry it out and placed it on the table next to Shi Le.

"Open!"

Shi Le said coldly, Ma Fang opened the lid, and inside it were red poison pills.

Seeing the poison pill, the concubine and princess began to cry in fear

They didn't want to be played with by Long Chen, nor did they want to swallow poison and die for their country.

"One tablet for everyone!"

Shi Le looked at Concubine Li standing in front.

With tears in his eyes, Li Fei slowly walked towards the poison pill

Ma Fang picked up a pill, and Concubine Li slowly stretched out her hand. Ma Fang put the poison pill in Concubine Li's white hand, and Concubine Li's palm was trembling.

Concubine Li looked at the poison pill and slowly turned her head to look at Shi Le. Shi Le looked at Concubine Li coldly.

Tears fell from his eyes, and Concubine Li made up her mind and opened her mouth to swallow the poison pill.

Seeing Concubine Li swallowing her, Shi Le turned his gaze to Concubine Hui behind her.

Concubine Hui's face was calm, and she slowly walked to Ma Fang, took the poison pill, then swallowed it silently, and bowed to Shi Le without any fear on her face.

Shi Le sighed in his heart: It is said that Concubine Hui is virtuous and cognitive, but it is true.

When facing death, one can see a person's quality. Concubine Li is frightened, Concubine Hui is fearless, and the superiority is judged immediately.

Then the other concubines, princesses and princesses took poison pills one by one and swallowed them, and cried in the bedroom.

Everyone swallowed the poison pills, and Shi Le said: "The concubines and the princess returned to the palace, the prince was higher than the wheel, and the others returned to the palace."

Soon, there were only 11 princes who were above the wheel in the hall.

Shi Le stood up and said, "You are princes of Daxia, and you must not be slaves to the country."

"Put your armor, hold your troops, and follow me to defend the enemy!"

Ma Fang immediately asked someone to put armor on the 11 princes, each equipped with weapons, and followed Shi Le to the palace wall.

The walls of the palace are not as good as those outside, but they are three meters thick and ten meters high.

Shile climbed up to the city wall, the fires in the city had been put out, the doors of the people were still closed, and the streets were full of barbarian cavalry and Long family troops.

Strangely, the barbarian cavalry was in order and prepared to attack the city under the command of the Long Family Army, but no robbery occurred.

In Shi Le's impression, the barbarian cavalry were riots. After entering the city, they killed, burned, looted, and committed all kinds of evil.

"Long Cheng'en has begun to win people's hearts."

Lu Qichang walked over and looked out of the city and said.

Shi Le looked into the distance. Instead of slaughtering the surrendered soldiers, Long Chen treated the injured Xixia soldiers. The soldiers who were burned by the fire last night were also being treated.

"Isn't this what he is best at? He is buying the hearts of the people and buying soldiers."

Shi Le sneer sneered coldly, feeling helpless.

He knew that he was irritable, but he couldn't change it.

Outside the city.

Long Chen is commanding military doctors to treat the wounded soldiers, and the Long family army and Xixia soldiers are treating them together.

The Xixia is about to be destroyed. The most important thing after the destruction of the country is to win people's hearts and make Xixia identify with the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

If the people of Xixia do not surrender and do not agree with the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, even if Long Chen conquered Xingqing City, there would be rebels.

Just like when Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, the Qin army was invincible in the world, but not long after Chen Sheng and Wu Guang revolted, and the six kingdoms were restored one after another.

Long Chen wanted to gather people's hearts, and he ordered that he would not be robbed after entering the city and treat the wounded soldiers equally.

"Sir, they're here!"

Tang Heizi came over and reported happily.

Long Chen asked, "Who is here?"
