Chapter 261, Pleading guilty
Asago accepted Gu Hang's conditions by default, followed closely by Janvis.
When the news that the two marquises were stabilized reached Gu Hang's ears, he couldn't help but smile.
This is good news.
It would indeed be a bit troublesome if the troops under the two marquises really fought from the south regardless.By then, the 2nd Division will be under greater pressure.
It's fine now.
He sent the relevant information to Perbov, who quickly ordered the troops to start the attack.
Knowing that the two marquises had been stabilized, Purbeuf was relieved of one of his worries.
The reason why the attack order was delayed for a while was not entirely because he was waiting for news from the south, but because he was waiting for more ammunition to be loaded and unloaded.
The landing ship flight from the starship to the ground never stopped for a moment.
When pursuing rapid unloading of troops, the amount of ammunition and supplies stored by the troops is insufficient.Fortunately, there was no really high-intensity battle, otherwise the expeditionary force might not have enough ammunition.
As for now, there is no such problem. Perbov can finally start the attack boldly and confidently.
There are two main goals in this battle.
One of them is naturally the two key figures Nes Luhmann and Gu Ming.
The second is the orbital air defense system distributed throughout Pinser City.
The offense is relatively smooth.
Troops from the east and west broke through Pinser City's first line of defense almost at the same time, entered the city, and started urban street battles with the enemy.
Logically speaking, urban street fighting is very difficult. When armored units enter the city, of course they still have an effect, but they are not as effective as fighting in the wild.
However, in fact, the Luman people's first line of defense, through the city walls and city gates, was fought fairly half-heartedly. They held it for a day and a night, but when they entered the street fighting, they collapsed.
The imagined picture of each building requiring repeated battles at the cost of blood did not appear. The alliance army was progressing very quickly.
And at this moment, two other things happened.
First of all, what many people can see is that several spaceships descend from the sky and head towards the palace complex in Pinser City.
Needless to say, it must have been sent by the fleet controlled by Gu Ming, probably to support Gu Ming's escape into the sky.
However, just when Purbov was about to order the troops' anti-aircraft firepower to intercept, Pinser City's orbital anti-aircraft firepower opened fire first.
Those spaceships were directly knocked down just like that!
Then, not long after, the frontline troops reported that they noticed the sound of gunfire in the palace complex in the center of Pinser City. The enemy might be fighting among themselves.
After hearing this news and thinking about the fact that Gu Ming's spaceship was knocked down by anti-aircraft fire, Purbov probably understood what was going on, no matter how slow he was.
This war is about to end.
He didn't know what he was feeling.
Should I be happy that the troops no longer have to fight and no more people have to die, or should I be depressed that the military exploits that have been successfully obtained are coming to an end?
But no matter how he feels, what he should do about this matter is not a decision he should make as a soldier.On the one hand, he just asked the troops to act according to the original plan, at most to be more conservative and reduce casualties, while on the other hand, he quickly conveyed the news to the Governor.
And sure enough, he received further instructions from the governor, telling him to stand still and watch the situation change.
About half a day later, an unarmed force came out of the palace complex and surrendered to the Alliance.
The leader was a burly middle-aged man who was naked and tied up.
Perbov has seen his portraits and photos. This is the monarch of the Luman Kingdom, Nes Luman.
And next to him was a man who was not very peaceful and whose mouth was blocked.That was Gu Ming.
...
Only half a day later, Gu Hang met Gu Ming and Nes Luman in the military camp outside the city.
Not to mention the cousin who was tied up, beaten, and his mouth was sealed, and he was twisting on the ground, Gu Hang's eyes were mainly on Nes Luhmann.
Topless, self-tied, and carrying a whip...
Hey guys, is it the Legend of Ancient Terra again?Asking for forgiveness?
This monarch of the Luman Kingdom is really flexible and flexible.
When the situation reached this point, he finally did not hesitate, and even threw away the last trace of his illusion of luck and made a decision.
He couldn't let Gu Ming run away on his own.
If Gu Ming ran away, he might still have a way to survive.He still has four fleets in space, and he also has a lot of contacts and connections.No matter whether it's a good comeback or not, there are still ways to give it a try.
And he, Ness Luhmann, had nothing left.The Royal Knights, who had worked hard for many years and gradually gathered power, suddenly collapsed;
His capital was about to be captured by the raging wrath of another branch of the Gu family;
If Gu Ming runs away, he will have nothing, his body will be destroyed, and his family will be destroyed.
At the critical moment, he ordered the air defense firepower still under his control to shoot down the spacecraft that was responsible for Gu Ming's evacuation, and mobilized his troops to kill the few security guards who were protecting Gu Ming and capture him alive. .
This is the sincerity of his surrender.
He knew that if he came out, he would put the fate of himself and his country into the hands of others and be manipulated by others.
But what if not?
It's a losing situation.
He could only seize the last weight and gain the last possibility for himself before complete defeat.
This is humiliating, but a man needs to be able to bend and stretch.
As soon as they met, he knelt in front of Gu Hang.
"As the king of the Luman Kingdom, I apologize to the head of the Gu family!"
"Half a year ago, Gu Ming came to visit secretly and discussed the conspiracy with me..."
Without Gu Hang asking, Ness Luhmann told him the whole story, very sincerely.
Of course, there was no need for him to say it. Gu Hang already knew about this whole thing.
It was simply that in the normal family council process, it was impossible for Gu Ming to win, so he took this opportunity to attack and overturned the table.
The address chosen by the family council has always been the Black Arrow Star. That is because no matter which country is in power on this planet and has the authority of the governor, its most important foreign trade relies on the Gu family's caravan.The two parties have enjoyed a good relationship during their long cooperation.
They do not belong to the Gu family, but they can be regarded as an important market for the Gu family and one of the foundations of the Gu family's business.
Wang Qi guarded against Gu Ming, but not against Nes Luhmann's betrayal.Even in Wang Qi's opinion, the many kingdoms on Black Arrow Star should have a better relationship with her.
It's good that she didn't use Ness Luman to deal with Gu Ming. How could there be any reason for the other party to use the local forces of Black Arrow Star to deal with her?
She even sent people to monitor the movements.
But he just missed the move and was deceived by Ness Luhmann.
He was moved by Gu Ming's statement of 'Eternal Palm Black Arrow Star'.
