After drinking two glasses of wine in a row, Song Qiuming said: "Tell me, how can I let them go."

"Let them surrender and submit to me after being reorganized." Song Li said: "I can act as atonement for their merits and spare them. Otherwise, Song Qiuming, you can wait a few years later to collect their bodies for them. I will not kill you, I will keep you and let you restrain their bodies here for the rest of your life."

"Aren't you afraid of retribution?" Song Qiuming said with red eyes.

"Are you qualified to say this?" Song Li looked at him and said, "You come and beat me, I should let you fight. If you lose and I win, do I have to give you up like an old man? Is there any reason? Song Qiuming, you are not a child, don't be so naive, okay? I've finished what I should say, you should make an idea quickly."

Speaking of this, Song Li pointed to the Locking Demon Pass and said, "My people are working hard to open the passage connecting the two gates of the north and south. As long as this path is opened, I will lead troops to attack the imperial capital. The Locking Demon Pass will be completely blocked. Don't doubt my determination. If these 200,000 people are determined to be loyal to their Holy Emperor, then let them stay here and die with their Holy Emperor in the future."

Song Qiuming looked at Song Li, as if he wanted to make sure whether Song Li's words were true or false.

But after looking for a while, he only saw the firmness in Song Li's eyes and the murderous intent like a knife.

"I'll go and persuade me to surrender." When Song Qiuming said this, he felt like his spine was removed.

"Take him away." Song Li said.

When Song Qiuming was taken away, Song Li picked up the wine glass and drank all the wine inside, and then he let out a sudden breath. Fortunately, his acting skills were pretty good, otherwise he wouldn't be able to fool the iron tiger.

Although Song Li dared not kill people, killing 200,000 people at once was not easy for him. After all, he was not Bai Qi, and he really didn't have such a cruel heart.

That's why he said this to Song Qiuming, hoping that he would persuade the elites who are still resisting stubbornly.

Of course, if Song Qiuming didn't eat the soft and hard, and the 200,000 people were stubborn, Song Li could only deal with them as he said just now. It would be hard to say whether they would really trap them to death.

Fortunately, Song Qiuming was finally frightened, which made Song Li not have to worry that he would really become a great killer like Bai Qi.

With Song Qiuming's persuasion to surrender, most of the soldiers who were still fighting stubbornly in the Demon Locking Guanzhong chose to surrender. After all, no matter how loyal he is to the Holy Emperor, no one will sacrifice his life.

Besides, Song Li is not an ordinary rebellion. He also has royal blood. Even if he robs the throne, it is still a matter within the royal family. What are they doing with it?

I don't know who said such a statement came from, but it gave the elites a step forward, and at the same time it also destroyed their will to resist. Then it began to surrender in an orderly manner, and then was quickly reorganized and integrated into Song Li's army.

Of course, if there are surrenders, there are naturally those who do not surrender.

There are not many of these people, only 20,000 to 30,000 people.

Song Li had nothing to say about these people, so he ordered people to clean up.

At the same time, Song Li did not stay in the Locking Demon Pass for a long time, but continued to move forward.

After opening the Demon Lock Pass, the one placed in front of Song Li was basically flat. Although there were some cities and passes along the way, and they were all hard-core and loyal to the Holy Emperor, for Song Li, who had mastered nearly 500,000 troops, these were no longer a big problem. He was too lazy to pay attention to any strategy and tactics, and he just pushed the whole way.

Not long after, Song Li's army pushed to the city of the imperial capital. At the same time, Zhan Long on the other side also led an army of 500,000 to about two hundred miles away from the imperial capital, and will soon arrive.

At this time, the imperial capital had already been closed, and the walls were covered with soldiers.

Song Li glanced at the flag swaying in the wind on the top of the city and found that the three legions of the empire were guarding, which were all famous soldiers and generals of the Holy Lion Empire. Even the 200,000 elite soldiers led by Song Qiuming were much different from them, let alone the soldiers in his hands.

The Holy Emperor recruited them and guarded the imperial capital so that it was not clear and watery, like an iron bucket. It was obvious that the Holy Emperor had not been idle these days and had made complete preparations.

This battle is not easy to fight. When Song Li saw Wei Qianli wearing bright silver armor on the top of the city, he felt even more troubled.

This guy is his cheap brother-in-law. Not to mention that he was originally strong and a famous brave general, Song Li couldn't stand it because he was Wei Qianxuan's elder brother.

If Song Li beat him to death, if he accidentally beat him to death, Wei Qianxun would definitely fight with him. But if he didn't beat him to death, with Wei Qianli's pride in his bones, he would definitely beat him to death.

Damn it's simply a dilemma. Holy Emperor, Holy Emperor, you old fox are so sinister. Song Li cursed in his heart, but he couldn't think of a good way to break the deadlock for a while.

"Master, what should I do now?" Lu Qian ran over and asked.

"Let's camp first, I'll think about it first, let the explorer go out, and come to report immediately after Zhanlong arrives. I'll write him a letter and ask him to come over and talk to him." Song Li said.

When night fell, the horse was exploring the horse and the 500,000 troops of Zhanlong also arrived outside the southern gate of the imperial capital.

Not long after, someone reported that Zhan Long had already come to meet him at the invitation of the light cavalry.

I heard that Zhan Long didn't bring many people here, but Song Li couldn't secretly praise Zhan Long for being brave.

When the two met, they exchanged some casual greetings, and then Song Li asked, "I guess you have seen it too. The Holy Emperor is playing with the turtle defense flow, making the imperial capital like an iron turtle. He has all been summoned to defend the city by him. The capital of God is high and the moat is deep. I want to take it down, but I don't know if you have any tricks?"

"No." Zhan Long shook his head.

His answer was very refreshing, not because he didn't think about it carefully, but because he had thought about the conclusion that he had really no choice but to draw after a long time.

"In my opinion, there is no other way except for strong attack and relying on crowds of people." Zhan Long added.

"It's not okay to send a team of people to open the city gate directly?" Song Li said.

"It's definitely not possible." Zhan Long shook his head and said, "The gate of the imperial capital is not an ordinary person. It is a defensive magic weapon. It is very difficult to destroy it easily. Also, let alone whether it can be destroyed, how can you get closer first?"

Zhan Long pointed to the terrain map of the imperial capital placed on the table by Song Li and said, "The defense system on your map is quite clear, but these are all on the surface, and there are still many of them that you and I don't know in secret. If it is an attack by ordinary soldiers, you can deal with it with these crossbows and arrows on the top of the city, but if it is a cultivator attacking, he will use rune arrows to counterattack."

"Runish arrow?" Song Li said.

"That's right." Zhan Long said: "The magic weapon specially designed for practitioners is shot out with one arrow, and it is hard for the gods to stop it."

"This is not the most important thing." Zhan Long seemed to have not thought it was enough and said, "You also participated in the rebellion of the imperial capital last time. You should have seen how powerful the magic arrays in the imperial capital are. In addition, there are many old guys in the city, all of which are trump cards that the Holy Emperor has always held in his hands and is reluctant to play. It is said that there is also a mysterious power that the Holy Emperor has never used."

"Song Li." Zhan Long said: "If I were you, unless I had no choice, I would not take the lead in using a cultivator. Otherwise, I would probably drag the situation into a quagmire that was difficult to control. Of course, you have the final say in this battle. I will cooperate with you with all my strength. As long as I can kill the Holy Emperor, even if I take care of all my people, I will do whatever I can."

"Thank you."

"No." Zhan Long waved his hand and said, "Just wait until you make a decision, I'll send someone to notify me."

After saying that, Zhan Long had turned around and left Song Li's military tent.

Originally, Song Li invited Zhan Long to hear what he had, but he didn't expect that he would add some psychological pressure to himself.

Looking at the high city walls of the capital outside, Song Li scratched his head. He couldn't think of a better way, so he had to decide to fight again and again tomorrow.

That night, Song Li had just fallen asleep when he suddenly felt his mind beating and an ominous sign came to his heart.

Bang.

Just at this moment, a deafening explosion came from outside Song Li's tent. This was the sound of the warning formation he left outside after it was triggered.

Since ancient times, stealing a camp in the middle of the night has been a common trick in military tactics. As for attacking and killing the opponent's commander and then dismantling the enemy's fighting spirit, it is even more an old routine. How could Song Li not be prepared?

From the day of the reign of the army, not only did Song Li's commander set up formations, but other generals even had similar arrangements.

But it has never been used before, but I didn't expect it to come in handy today.

As soon as the explosion started, Song Li felt five murderous auras as sharp as a knife suddenly appear, and then locked him in.

"Song Li, you rebel, die." Amid the angry shout, a cold light surged and swept across, sweeping towards Song Li.

At the same time, the four people who came with him also showed their weapons and rushed towards Song Li.

Bang bang bang.

At the same time, there were explosions in the distance, and then the shouts of killing suddenly rang out.

Obviously, this time the assassins were not just Song Li, but other generals.

"Just because of you guys, you're like assassinating me. The Holy Emperor's head was kicked by a donkey?" Song Li sneered, moved his hands, and instantly pinched out a hundred magic tricks.

Swish.

A cold light flashed by, and the Tianmo Sword came out.

It instantly evolved into twelve sword lights and slashed towards the five people.

The twelve sword formation of the illusion.

As soon as he took action, Song Li used a fierce killing move. He was really not in the mood to get involved with these people now. If he wasted a moment of time, he would likely have some uncontrollable situation.
