Chapter 84: Encirclement and Suppression
There was once a poet who said "the most ruthless emperor's family", which exhausted the countless sad songs of the emperor's side. And at this moment, Yang Yi suddenly felt that maybe the emperor's family was not only ruthless to women, but sometimes to his relatives, and even to himself, such as Yang Ang at this moment.
Yang Ang is not a fool, Yang Yi's words broke him. His father didn't want to kill him, but fundamentally, he was testing himself to see what he would do. And no one thought that Yang Ang chose the worst path---- to force the palace by force coup d'Γ©tat!
Yang Ang raised his sword to the sky and laughed wildly, no one knew whether he was laughing at himself or Emperor Yang Lu, perhaps even thinking that everything in the world was ridiculous.
This is a real matter of opening the bow without turning back, no matter what the emperor thinks, Yang Ang has already embarked on a road of no return and cannot turn back, and his only chance now is to make a mistake to the end.
Yang Ang's eyes were red, and his eyeballs were full of bloodshots, which looked extremely terrifying. I saw him slowly withdraw the long sword in his hand, and almost squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "I respectfully ask my father to abdicate!" β
The two thousand rebel soldiers behind him received the order and roared in unison: "Yes! The sound reverberated back and forth in the square of the main hall, piercing the sky.
"Tong, Tong, Tong..."Hundreds of armor soldiers rushed towards the steps of Hanyuan Hall with heavy and neat steps.
In an instant, it was as if the whole world was quiet, and the sound of footsteps was like a heavy hammer, each blow hitting everyone's hearts hard.
Emperor Yang Lu's eyes did not show any panic, but they were full of pain. Yang Ang made his last choice, and perhaps also made his choice for Emperor Yang Lu.
Emperor Yang Lu sat on the dragon chair, slowly closed his eyes, and waved his hand lightly.
"Up~~~" A voice resounded in the sky.
Suddenly, on the palace walls on both sides in front of the Hanyuan Palace, thousands of forbidden army crossbowmen squatting behind the palace walls stood up neatly, and took bows and arrows to coldly aim at the stunned rebels in the square.
Before the rebels could react, another order sounded: "Let go!! β
In an instant, 10,000 arrows shot in unison, and the humming sound was extremely harsh. The rain of arrows fell in a perfect parabola, and the hundreds of rebels on the steps fell in pieces like wheat harvesting. In a few moments, there was not a single rebel standing on the steps, and blood pooled from the low protrusion of the steps, slowly flowing downward.
The rain of arrows gradually stopped, and Ling Xiang remembered again: "Turn !! The archers on the city wall suddenly turned their bows neatly and aimed at the square where Yang Ang and the others were.
Yang Ang frowned, and as soon as he raised his hand, the deputy general beside him shouted: "Imperial !!! β
Hundreds of shield rebels quickly moved closer to Yang Ang and the others, and the other shield rebels also formed several phalanxes to surround other archers and spearmen in the middle, shouting and raising their shields to form a defensive array that looked impermeable.
"Put !!" The sound of the rain of arrows breaking through the air on the city wall was remembered again, and the rain of arrows fell and then clanged on the shield. Although there was a shield array to defend, from time to time, bows and arrows shot through the gaps and shot at the rebels inside, and the screams were endless.
"Stop !!" After a stick of incense, the rain of arrows finally stopped.
Immediately, accompanied by the sound of "knock, knock" and the sound of armor rubbing, countless gold-armored guards poured out from the entrances on both sides of Hanyuan Hall and behind Yang Ang and others.
The Golden Armor Guards quickly lined up and surrounded Yang Ang's remaining 2,000 rebels in the middle like dumplings.
"Drink!" The golden armor guards finished arraying and roared in unison, and the golden armor was extremely dazzling in the setting sun.
"Attacking !!"
The spearmen were in front, and after the sword disaster, the golden armor battle array shrank neatly towards the rebels who were waiting in formation, and shouted in unison every three steps! The sound slammed into everyone's heart.
Soon the battle formations on the two sides came into contact, and after the violent impact, there were countless handovers of soldiers and the sound of swords and guns entering the body.
Yang Yi in the shield array was very worried about whether he would be injured by mistake, you must know that the sword has no eyes, and in this chaotic situation, he can't say anything.
At this time, Yang Yi saw the old eunuch Zhao Gui walking to the steps at the entrance of the main hall from the gap in the shield array, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has an order!" Don't hurt Your Royal Highnesses! β
"Your Majesty has an order! Don't hurt Your Royal Highnesses! β
The imperial decree spread throughout the battlefield, and the pressure on Yang Ang and Yang Yi was suddenly much less, and the golden armor guards who had besieged them also turned elsewhere.
Seeing that the encirclement was still getting smaller and smaller, and it wouldn't be long before the rebels would be wiped out if it went on like this, the old man who was standing beside Yang Ang condensed: "Your Highness! Capture the thief and capture the king! β
Yang Ang, who was a little desperate, his eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded, taking down the emperor was the last resort, and it was also the last hope for the rebels.
The black-robed old man and the other gray-clothed man glanced at each other, took a few steps forward, and the shield array immediately moved a gap, and after the two flew out, they closed again.
From the gap in the shield array, it can be seen that the two black-robed old men are like a flexible carp, flashing left and right in the crowded crowd, a big cane in the hands of the black-robed old man will smash open a piece of gold-armored soldiers every time he swings, and the gray-robed man keeps throwing out flying knives in his hands, and someone will fall down in response with every flick of his wrist.
Before the Golden Armor Guards could react, the two of them jumped up and rushed out through the crowd.
The black-robed old man and the gray-robed man glanced at each other, and without hesitation, they quickly rushed towards the emperor in the Hanyuan Palace.
The emperor still didn't move, only Zhao Gui, who was standing in front of the hall, waved his hand lightly, and two people walked out from both sides of the hall, but they were two old eunuchs who looked very old.
The two old eunuchs stepped forward, and there was still time to salute Zhao Gui, and then they turned to look at the black-robed old man and the gray-clothed man who were rushing quickly. Without much to say, the four of them quickly fought together.
For a while, the sky was dark, and the noble and solemn Hanyuan Hall Square had become a hell on earth.
The battle below ended quickly, and nearly 30,000 gold-armored forbidden troops surrounded 4,000 rebels, and there was no suspense in this kind of battle. The victory and defeat on the steps were gradually divided, and the two old eunuchs were obviously the old worshippers in the palace, and the high level of martial arts was amazing.
The flying knife in the arms of the gray-clothed man had long been used up, and he struggled to support it with a short sword, and in a trance, he was slapped on the shoulder by the old eunuch with a heavy palm, and the blood in the gray-clothed man's mouth spurted wildly and rolled down the steps, and a team of gold-armored spearmen poked it into a hedgehog when it did not land.
The black-robed old man glanced at the battlefield with a certain defeat, and he had no intention of fighting at all, so he fought hard to swing away from the old eunuch who was fighting, turned around and climbed onto the roof of Hanyuan Hall like a monkey, and then jumped onto the palace wall, dodging the countless arrows shot by Chan and turned out. Seeing this, the two old eunuchs did not hesitate, and also flipped out, and the three of them disappeared into the palace walls.
