At the darkest moment before dawn, fifty spaceships quietly arrived in the sky above the imperial city of Beiping, fifty spaceships were at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, and the flames from the furnace looked no different from the stars in the sky on the ground. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info insist on distinguishing something different, then only they are bigger than other stars.

The imperial city is still asleep at night, and the huge palace no longer looks tall when viewed from a height of more than 1,000 meters. Dotted with lanterns, like ghost fires, Li Ba searched hard in the spaceship for a possible place for Zhu Di to stay.

The dog was by his side at the moment, looking at the dark imperial city, he tightened his eyebrows, and said very distressedly: "It's so dark that you can't see the people in the building, and the imperial city is so big, how can I find out which room Zhu Di is sleeping in?" ”

A sinister smile appeared at the corner of Li Ba's mouth, and he pouted: "So, those of you who have never been on an errand in the palace, naturally you don't understand the rules of the emperor's stay. ”

"Don't brag, I don't believe that under such circumstances, you can find Zhu Zhudi to sleep there!" When the dog saw Li Ba coming to show off again, he was very disdainful of it.

"Hmph, boy, learn a little! The place where the emperor sleeps is naturally the most heavily guarded place in the imperial city, although we can't see the people inside the building. But you only need to look at the courtyard with the most guards, as well as the eunuchs who keep vigil, and the palace maids are gathered at which gate, and you can guess from these clues. ”

Having worked as an errand by Zhu Di's side, Li Ba naturally understands the rules of the palace, not to mention that he has been a royal guard for a while.

Although the dog knew that Li Ba was reasonable, he was still skeptical, but fortunately, it was Li Ba who was responsible for the sneak attack, and he and the sharpshooter battalion were just here to help, and everything could be done by Li Ba. Even if there is an accident in the back, they will not be involved!

Li Ba, who was trying to search for the huge imperial city, suddenly saw someone coming out of the imperial study, and saw that it was Zhu Gaochi through the dim light.

This made Li Ba very happy, now there is less than an hour before the time of the previous dynasty, and it is very likely that Zhu Di is now in the imperial study. He immediately checked the eunuchs and guards at the entrance of the imperial study, and found that it was indeed much stricter than in other places.

Zhu Gaochi knew that his father was going to launch a large army to encircle and suppress Tang Ming in the next few days, and today's early dynasty would hand over the matter to the ministers for discussion. After hesitating for a night, he still felt that he had come to persuade him one last time, and the result was that there was still no progress from his expression at the moment.

Zhu Di was in the imperial study at the moment, his face was slightly blue, and it was obvious that he must have had an unpleasant conversation with Zhu Gaochi just now.

From the moment Tang Ming's spaceship appeared in the sky over Beiping, he was even more determined to destroy Tang Ming's heart. Letting a person who is not under his control and who has seriously threatened the safety of Daming go free in the open sea, this kind of thing is definitely not allowed by Zhu Di.

Since sending away the envoys from those countries, Zhu Di has begun to gather a large army, although it has not reached a million, but it is not far behind. Especially this time, he took out almost the entire Shenji Battalion, and he will use all the weapons at the bottom of the box to encircle and suppress Tang Ming.

Now all he lacked was the lack of a commander-in-chief, and for a while he didn't know who to send to the battle. Zhu Neng and Zhang Yu were originally the best candidates, but it was a pity that the relationship between the two of them and Tang Ming was extraordinary, so Zhu Di directly excluded the two of them, who were originally the most trusted generals.

This also made him into distress, Tang Ming had a high prestige in the army, and he wanted to send someone who was completely unfamiliar with him to fight. There are only newcomers, but he really can't find a suitable candidate among the younger generation, so when he is in the early court today, he will ask all the ministers to recommend some people for his reference.

Zhu Gaochi didn't make any stops, and when he left the imperial study, he hurried back to his prince's mansion, and the early dynasty was his last hope. He wanted to use his current prestige to put pressure on the ministers and try to make a last stand to prevent his father from going to Tang Ming.

After careful observation, Li Ba was 100% sure that Zhu Di was in the imperial study at the moment, and the best time for a sneak attack should be when Zhu Di was going to the early dynasty. But at that time, their whereabouts will be revealed, and after some consideration, Li Ba finally decides to leave and attack.

Fifty spaceships targeted the entire courtyard of the Imperial Study, and after ensuring that the incendiary bombs could cover the entire complex, Li Ba personally lit a powder bomb and threw it directly on the roof of the Imperial Study.

In order to ensure that the gunpowder bullets used in this sneak attack were powerful enough, Tang Ming specially built two hundred cast iron ones, and the fuse carried a trace of sparks, and the weight of the falling body made the gunpowder bullets, like a small meteorite, easily smash through the roof of the imperial study.

"Bang ......."

A loud bang rang out in the silent Imperial City, and then the black dots in the air became dense, and a full fifty gunpowder bullets leveled the entire imperial study in an instant.

Li Ba did not stop there, but continued to blow up the foundation of the entire imperial study into a big hole, and finally threw all the incendiary bombs he brought.

The powerful blast wave of the explosion and the flames that burst into the sky instantly shocked the entire imperial city, with the imperial study as the central point, and all the places within a radius of one mile were covered in raging flames.

Even if the people who were awakened and rushed to put out the fire were helpless in the face of the monstrous fire. Not to mention fighting fires, they can't even get close to people. The only thing they could do was to keep the fire from spreading, and the rest could only watch the entire courtyard of the Imperial Study turn to ashes in the sea of fire.

Standing on the roof of the top floor of the treasure ship in the open sea of Tianjin Wei, Tang Ming could see the sky above Beiping City with the naked eye at this moment, and it was reflected red by the monstrous fire. It was as if the sun was about to rise from there, and the red glow was eye-catching.

"Got it!"

Tang Ming muttered, put away the binoculars expressionlessly, turned around and went down to the roof and returned to the house.

After Li Ba and the others threw everything they could, they returned to Tang Ming's treasure ship as fast as they could. When he saw Tang Ming, he still had a stunned look on his face, and it was obvious that he was also shocked by the power of gunpowder bullets and incendiary bombs.

As soon as Tang Ming received Li Ba, he immediately ordered to return, leaving only two spies dressed in ordinary costumes to go to Beiping on a small boat to inquire about the news.

The fire in the imperial city burned for a whole day before it was extinguished, and the entire Beiping, including the surrounding areas, saw the fire, and for a time the rumors of the Ming Dynasty spread everywhere at a rapid speed. (To be continued.) )
