"Cover, protect the general!" Vice General Sun retreated with the sword in his hand to block the arrows, not forgetting to protect Lin Guangyao in the middle.

"The Praetorian Guards in the palace have a limited number of arrows, and each person only has three to use for daily patrols. They should have run out of arrows, soldiers, don't be afraid! Rush~" Lin Guangyao saw that his subordinates were injured by the rain of arrows, and the retreating people cheered up their morale.

Seeing that the general spoke in such a firm tone, the retreating soldiers also mustered up the courage to rush forward, striving to be the warriors and heroes who won the palace, so that they could occupy a place in the meritorious deeds after the change of dynasty.

However, to their surprise, the rain of arrows continued to shoot out from the palace like an endless stream, and the attacking rebels had not yet touched the palace gate, and the dead and wounded were already hundreds.

"General! They seem to have been prepared........."

"Impossible! Hong Zhao has already succeeded, they should be leaderless at this time, and they should be in a mess! How can we prepare bows and arrows in advance and wait for us? Even if Lin Guangyao didn't believe it anymore, the facts were in front of him, which made him have to wonder: Could it be that Hong Zhao was lying to him?

"Someone~! Transporting explosives, fire attack! Set fire to them! He didn't want to use it as a last resort. The huge palace has a limited range of fire attacks, and there are many wells in the palace, so the palace people can also extinguish the fire.

"General.........

"General...... Oh no! The defenders of the city gate heard the movement and had already begun to send reinforcements. ”

"The general is not good! The soldiers who disguised themselves as ordinary people did not show up as agreed. I sent someone to check and there was no news, so something should have happened......"

"General......

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut it all up!!! Lin Guangyao was furious with the successive bad news, and he thought that he could capture the palace without much effort, and then encircle and annihilate the rebels of the king of Huainan with the army outside the city.

"General...... The Praetorian Guard is prepared, and we will not be able to attack it in a short time. If we wait until the defenders of the city gate arrive, and the Janissaries come out to meet us, we will be flanked from the inside and outside........"

"General, let's retreat first........ Stay in the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood........."

"Success or failure is here, where can you retreat........ The whole world is not the king's land........"

"General....... Offended! Seeing that the defeat was decided, and staying here was also defeated by internal and external attacks, seeing that Lin Guangyao was greatly defeated, he had no choice but to knock him out and start to retreat.

"Retreat to the south gate, where there are our eyeliners among the guards.......... Remove! Retreat! ”

When they retreated to the south gate in embarrassment, Chen Bei, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, was leading half of the Praetorian Guard and the city gate defenders to wait for him here.

"Lin Guangyao, I think that you are a relative of the emperor, put down your weapons and surrender quickly, and hand it over to the emperor to send you, maybe I can leave you a whole corpse." Rebellion is a major crime to exterminate the nine clans, and it is generally a traitor who watches his relatives and friends beheaded in front of him one by one, and after suffering psychological torture, he is torn apart.

However, Lin Guangyao is a relative of the royal family, and the royal family is also counted within the nine clans, so it is impossible to strictly count according to the extermination of the nine clans, so it is also possible to leave a whole corpse, give poisoned wine or commit suicide.

"If you don't surrender again, what awaits you is the car splitting and the five horses splitting the corpse!"

Lin Guangyao understood that he had fallen into a trap the moment he saw Chen Bei. The emperor didn't die at all, and deliberately spread the news that the emperor had been poisoned by poppies to lure him out, revealing the wolf's ambition and catching him all in one go.

"Hahaha Chen Bei....... It turns out that you have premeditated........ The commander of the Praetorian Guard guarding the palace was waiting for the old man at the city gate....... Looks like I can't escape today........"

"General........ I will fight to the death to protect you out of the city, and when we meet the army outside the city, we will be safe........."

"Don't you understand? I won't see the army anymore........"
