Sure enough, everything in the forbidden place of the palace seemed extremely silent, and the only dazzling thing in the darkness was the golden armor shining in the moonlight on the guards one by one, and the hissing of crows gave people a terrifying feeling, echoing the gloomy silence under the bright moonlight.

A group of people led by Chen Yu quietly approached the vicinity of the palace compound and ascended to a high ground conducive to observing the movements inside and outside the palace.

There is a watchtower at intervals of fifty paces outside the courtyard wall, and there are two soldiers standing on each watchtower, and five soldiers under the tower, and a different patrol team will come and go every hour outside the courtyard, and there are ten guards standing guard at the gate of the courtyard, not including the secret sentry that is not seen and the manpower in the courtyard.

Seeing such a scene, a dead soldier said a little nervously: "I didn't expect this palace to be so heavily guarded, why don't we go back first and then mobilize some troops."

"No, the arrow has to be sent on the string, it has already come to the outside of this palace, how can there be a reason to turn back, be sure to quickly kill in and control King Yan, so that it is good to deal with Lord Chen and them."

After that, Chen Yu deployed according to the pre-assigned plan, and the dead soldiers lurked in groups within the range of crossbow arrows on the periphery of the compound, and the guards did not notice them because the sky was overcast and obscured by the moonlight.

The leader of the dead man, the pterodactyl, led ten people and quietly followed a patrol to prepare to attack, and the leader of the dead man, the stegosaurus, led five archers to climb the treetops, aiming at the guards in front of him and ready to release arrows to support.

Seeing that all the people were ready, Chen Yu led the leader of the dead soldiers, Huolong, swaggering towards the gate of the palace, and when he came to the gate of the courtyard, two guards stopped them and said: "The palace is forbidden for anyone to enter and exit, besides, what's the matter with coming here so late."

"Under the henchmen of Gonggong Chen, there is an important military intelligence report to the king, and I hope that a few people will let me in."

As soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, a guard walked up to him and said with some annoyance: "I have already told you, the forbidden place of the palace is so late, even the current princes and nobles can't enter."

The fire dragon on the side walked up to the guard, and the short knife in his sleeve quickly swung and slit his throat, seeing that the guard was suddenly attacked, the other guards hurriedly planned to fight back.

The fire dragon pulled out the two long horizontal knives on his waist and slashed them at lightning speed, cutting down the two guards to the ground in one fell swoop, and Chen Yu also took out a short axe on his back and cut down three guards.

At this moment, the guards above and below the several defense towers around the compound were just about to step forward to see what was going on, when they were shot by the dead soldiers who had been ambushed.

A guard at the gate of the courtyard saw the situation and immediately fled and planned to raise the alarm, but before he took two steps, he was killed by an arrow from the stegosaurus lurking in the woods, and saw that as long as the guards inside and outside the courtyard were solved, the stegosaurus led the dead soldiers to jump down the treetops and came to the gate of the courtyard.

The pterosaurs had also successfully attacked a patrol, and after dealing with these Yan soldiers, they changed into the armor of the Yan soldiers, and continued to stand in place and observe the movements on both sides.

Chen Yu kicked the corpse on the ground twice and said, "Brothers, the moment when we will be remembered by history is coming soon."

Then, Chen Yu led the more than 50 people to keep approaching the palace, and a guard in charge of the secret post in the courtyard saw clearly from behind the courtyard wall, and hurriedly ran into the palace to wake up King Yan, and said in a panic: "It's a big deal, a group of black-clothed people are coming to the palace, and the guards outside have all been killed, and I don't know if it was done by that force."

"There is such a thing."

King Yan summoned the foreman's guard and said to him: "Quickly, quickly, take all the guards and personal guards of the widow, go, go and kill this group of arrogant people, I don't believe that so many elites can't resist a group of assassins."

The general, surnamed Li, was ordered to gather all the guards in the palace, and after giving two orders, he led his army to meet them.

Seeing a large number of people pouring out of the palace, Chen Yu smiled and said: "What, has King Yan woken up, he has gathered all the guards so quickly, what can you do with me, the pterodactyl is ready to fight back."

The pterosaur heard the order and waved his hand, and thirty dead soldiers rushed to the front of everyone to set up a formation, they all shouldered the crossbows they were carrying and released arrows in unison, and a burst of random arrows flew away and instantly shot down more than 100 palace guards, and many of the dead soldiers of the guards also fell to the ground with several arrows in their bodies.

General Li knew in his heart that King Yan behind him must not retreat half a step, so he resolutely led all the soldiers to continue to rush and kill against the rain of arrows, and after a while, he rushed to the front of the dead soldiers.

Seeing that the other party actually killed in front of his formation, the pterosaur jumped out of the formation and took off into the air, he was wearing a bat-like black suit with strong auxiliary flight ability, so he flew straight forward in the air for a distance.

On the way to fly forward, the pterosaur used the mechanism worn on the wrist of both hands to release arrows into the crowd of Yan troops below, and after several people were hit by arrows, the Yan soldiers saw that someone above their heads released cold arrows, and raised their shields in unison to cover themselves while releasing arrows to shoot back.

The pterosaur flew into the crowd of Yan soldiers and landed on the ground, and before he could stand firmly, he waved his upper arms left and right to kill, his arms were equipped with scale armor, small arms and small shields, and the front end of the shield stretched forward with three-edged hooks and claws to attack.

Seeing that the Yan army had been stirred up by the pterodactyls, the fire dragon and the ten dead soldiers threw out the three-edged fangs one by one, and the soldiers at the front of the Yan army fell in an instant, and those dead soldiers with artillery crossbows on their shoulders had also loaded new arrows, and kept walking forward while releasing arrows.

After a while, only about a third of the Yan army remained, and General Li angrily swung his long sword and rushed towards the approaching pterodactyl, not counting the blood brought up by the hooked claws on the pterosaur's arms, and General Li also fell into the pile of corpses.

The remnants of the men and horses had to retreat into the palace and close the palace gate, and when King Yan saw that they were so embarrassed, he said: "You more than 300 people are all elite soldiers who protect the widows, how can you not even be able to defeat a group of assassins outside."

"Great King, this group of assassins outside is by no means an idle person, they are not only extremely skilled and combative, but they are also equipped with dozens of cannon crossbows, which is by no means done by ordinary forces."

After the bronze armor guard Wang Meng finished speaking, the guard general General Wang said: "King, as long as we hold on for a while, all the forbidden troops in the city will rush over to reinforce, but I don't know who they are directed."

Another bronze-armored guard, Zhao Yang, said: "This is most likely an attack by a mercenary force, or a rebellion by the city's Chinese military conspiracy."

King Yan was silent for a moment......
