Licinius was not at peace when he stood in the court, although he summoned more than 500 guards, but these people almost became deserters, and they could not be relied on.

And the arrows are almost exhausted, and the palace's arsenal is actually in the outer city, which makes the soldiers even more frightened, after all, there is no reinforcement outside and there is no equipment inside, and they all rely on a blood and courage to support.

Once the palace gate is broken, it will be a short-handed encounter, and the palace guards and the royal forest army are not much better, everyone's level is half a catty, and no one should laugh at anyone.

"Draw your sword and prepare for battle!"

Licinius saw that the arrows were finally exhausted, and he also smiled slightly bitterly, it was beyond his expectation that he was about to engage in battle so soon, those arrows were shot outside the palace wall by these guards at will, and no one knew how many rebels they had shot and killed, so they could only pray for God's favor.

With a loud bang, the palace gate finally fell to the ground in the wailing, several guards in front of the door staggered and fell, the open door was pitch black in the night, and the guards could clearly hear the heavy wheezing sound outside the door, as fierce and cruel as a wolf.

Suddenly, the flames lit up the hideous faces of the rebels, and little Ducasse smiled and drew his sword and pointed it at Licinius.

"Kill, don't put away the knife today!"

Little Ducasse's voice was steady, but the words he said made Licini also creepy, is he crazy? To wash the city in Constantinople?

Before Licinius could think about it, the rebel soldiers had already rushed up with a scream, and the light of the sword reflected a phantom of death, and in a trance he actually recalled the past when he was a child and trained swords in the court, as if the dust had passed.

"Come, come, come! Let me see how you look! ”

After all, he grew up in the court, and Licinius was able to be named the personal retinue of Alexios the Younger, so he naturally practiced good martial arts, and his sword pierced the rebel soldier's chest, blood splashed everywhere, and his waving arm took the life of the rebel soldier one after another.

"Kill him! Don't go back! ”

Little Ducasse's eyes turned red when he saw the palace guards defeated his men under the leadership of Licinius, and he had to cut down two rebel soldiers who were cowering and retreating again.

"Kill! Kill him or get a reward! Either I'll kill you and then I'll kill him!" Little Ducasse's frantic tone frightened the rebel soldiers, and they had to turn around and continue the fight.

The corners of Licinius's mouth showed coldness, and the swinging sword cut a rebel soldier in two again, the man wailed and lay on the ground before he died, but he crawled all the way to the feet of the little Ducasse, the traces of blood dragged all the way, and the rebel soldier's heart was cold, how could this person fight so fiercely?

Seeing that the rebel soldiers were standing there for the time being, Licinius also secretly gasped, and although the whirlwind of sword dances just now killed people's heads, he also had three sword wounds on his body, and blood flowed slowly.

Covering a wound in his abdomen with his hand, Licinius felt bitter in his heart, looking around at the inseparability between the guards and the rebel soldiers, but the situation on the other side was slowly becoming unfavorable due to the large number of people, and he could only remain silent to deter the rebels from delaying time.

"Whoosh" a bowbow string, Licinius instinctively wanted to dodge to avoid the dark arrow, but in the end it was a step too late, the arrow penetrated through the body and entered the left shoulder in the middle, if he didn't react, it would be the heart!

"Hahaha! Little Ducasse, why are you still here? I thought I should have come to see the Queen Mother Regent! ”

Licinius carefully identified the person by the light of the fire, and suddenly he looked at this person with a long mouth in disbelief, how could he not be in prison?

"Lord Licinius wonders why me, right?" Isaac Angelos's figure appeared from the shadows, and a great bow was discarded by him on the ground, apparently he was the one who had just launched the Dark Arrow to sneak up on him.

"For the sake of you who are about to go to see God, I will tell you with great mercy and compassion, the general contact person of the rebel party in the imperial capital that you have been chasing is me, and the one in the prison is the stand-in I prepared, isn't it very similar?"

Isaac approached little Ducasse with a wicked smile on his face, and the two stood side by side, the elongated shadow enveloping Licinius, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, and the gaze that looked at them both was filled with pity.

"I only saw two little mice in the dark smug, His Majesty the Emperor has already won victory in Bulgaria, once His Majesty returns, it will be your time of death!"

The faces of the two of them were gloomy at the same time, and Licinius's words hit the nail on the head, if they were not afraid of the emperor's return for a purge, they would not have acted in a hurry, and even they themselves were uneasy about such a well-prepared plan.

"Don't talk nonsense with him, our top priority is to find the regent Empress Dowager Mary, and then issue a decree abolishing the emperor, otherwise we will be in trouble when the Qinwang army from all regions arrives!"

Little Ducas stepped forward directly to give the eunuch the last sword, seeing that death was gradually approaching, Licini also half-knelt on the ground, closed his eyes, and seemed to have given up resistance, the corners of Little Ducasse's mouth raised an evil smile and stabbed straight with his sword.

The sword was sharp, and Licinius seemed to feel the sword wind on his forehead, and suddenly he opened his eyes and looked directly at Little Ducasse, which made Little Ducasse feel bad and planned to put away his sword and retreat, Licinius rolled on a donkey, avoiding the blade of the sword, and the sword turned into a stab and swept on the ground, bringing up a bloody color.

"Ahh The screams of the little Ducasse were incessant, and Isaac was shocked to see that the little Ducasse had separated his feet from his body, and the blood was gushing endlessly.

"You're really a good plan, pretending to be dead and abolishing little Ducasse, but what's the use of this, I'll still cut off your head!"

Isaac's sword reflected the cold light, and the old way slowly approached, Licinius held the sword across his chest, and the blood on the sword body had not dried up, and the dripping made people feel chills in their hearts.

Both of them were Roman warriors who had studied swordsmanship for many years, and they were really good opponents, and the rebel soldiers and court guards around them stepped aside to make way for the two.

Licinius was wounded and knew that he couldn't fight for a long time, the blade of the sword reversed and stabbed Isaac in the chest, Isaac quickly dodged and took advantage of Licinius's empty door to open the door and turned around and slashed with a sword, although Licinius blocked it, but the wound opened more and more under the force, the blood flowed nonstop, and he took two steps back and fell to the ground.

"If you abandon your sword and surrender now, maybe you can be spared!" Isaac was so worried about what had happened to little Ducasse just now that he didn't dare to step forward, intending to persuade him again.

"Hahaha! I laugh at you for being smart and dying! Licinius looked up to the sky and laughed, tears streaming down his face, and Isaac's face was full of confusion.

At this time, the horn whistle outside the city sounded in the sky, and Constantinople at night was also awakened by this sudden earth-shattering sound, and Isaac turned his head and looked in the direction of the gate of St. Romanus!
