Chapter 775: Brothers (2)
This extremely tragic battle lasted from night to dawn until noon.
The fierce and high-spirited snare drums did not stop.
The "traitors" are not afraid of death, and those who still have a breath left are also fighting hard. The elite soldiers of the imperial court also fought red-eyed, and the suffocation that had been unstoppable for a month around the imperial tomb turned into blood and courage under the urging of the snare drum.
The "traitors" fell one by one, and the elite soldiers of the court also suffered many casualties, blood stained the ground red, and the thick bloody atmosphere spread wantonly with the wind.
The "traitors" of the guards and officials couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to open the door to kill people with red eyes.
They can't survive, and when they die, they have to pull these court officials as backs.
Before he could make a move, he was stopped by Scarface: "Don't move in vain!" ”
One of them couldn't help but open his mouth: "Why can't you kill!" The soldiers of the imperial court are already coming in. Are we just waiting here to die! It's better to open the door first, kill all these court officials, and then go out to kill them. ”
The thief was agitated, and his voice was hoarse, and it passed through the not very thick door panel, and soon reached the ears of those inside the door.
Fang Ge Lao and the others all changed their faces, and their bodies trembled.
There is always a death. However, it is not worth dying under the sword of a traitor!
They still want to survive, live for ten or twenty more years, and be loyal to the remnants of the body!
Someone took the lead, and all the rebels became excited.
The scar-faced man didn't say a word, strode forward, and suddenly drew his knife. In the horrified eyes of the people, he raised his sword and cut off the head of the clamoring man.
Blood splattered, and the crowd fell silent.
"Pick up your knives," the scar-faced man said coldly, "If you want to kill, go out and kill yourself!" ”
He is a confidant of King Min.
At all times, he kept in mind the instructions of King Min. Without the order of the King of Fujian, the officials of the imperial court must not be killed in vain.
The few officials who were dragged to the high-rise building before were all the confidants and courtiers of the deceased Emperor Jian'an. The officials who stayed behind were still the future ministers of the humerus of Great Qi, how could they die in vain?
Moments later, the "traitors" were gone.
Zhao Gelao, who had been listening to the door panel tremblingly for a long time, his legs were weak, and he leaned against the wall so that he did not fall.
Fang Ge Lao Yan Ge was not much better, and they were all full of cold sweat.
"People outside, I don't know whose subordinates they are, still have some conscience." Fang Ge's voice was extremely low.
Zhao Ge was speechless.
Yan Ge Lao snorted lightly: "What kind of conscience is this." It is clear that he wants to leave a way out for himself, so that no one in the DPRK will be available in the future......"
Before he could finish speaking, there was another noise of footsteps outside the door, mixed with the sound of swords clashing.
The three pavilion elders were immediately silent, and their backs were already covered in cold sweat.
Could it be that the traitors have changed their minds again and want to come back and kill them?
The door was suddenly pushed open.
The three elders wanted to show the awe-inspiring righteousness that they were not afraid of death. However, his legs were weak and weak, and the cold sweat behind him was like a waterfall, and the rice grains had not been eaten for most of the day, and he had no strength at all.
The man who came in first was quite tall, with a fierce face and a lot of blood splashed on his body. His eyes swept over the pale-faced pavilion elders, and he stepped forward and saluted: "The last general is too late to save the car, please don't be surprised!" ”
He is a serious imperial general!
The hearts of the three pavilion elders fell back to their original positions together. Yan Ge Lao was too relieved to breathe this breath, and sat directly on the ground.
Forget it, be embarrassed! Finally saved!
Yan Ge Lao laughed at himself, stood up with the support of Zhao Ge Lao, and opened his mouth to ask, "Who are you?" ”
The man replied in a deep voice: "The last general's surname is Su, and he is a personal soldier under the command of His Royal Highness the King of Shu. ”
Sure enough, the King of Shu is here!
The three pavilion elders were in high spirits, and their favorability towards His Royal Highness the King of Shu was unprecedentedly infinitely higher. Fang Ge Lao opened his mouth and asked, "Where is His Royal Highness the King of Shu?" ”
The soldier replied, "Your Highness has ordered us to come and rescue you." His Royal Highness personally led his own soldiers to save the emperor and the vassal kings. ”
Save the Emperor......
The elders looked at each other tacitly.
It is not difficult to save the vassal kings, but if you want to save the emperor, I am afraid it will not be easy.
Fang Ge Lao cleared his throat and said a scene: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu will definitely be able to save the emperor and His Royal Highnesses the vassal kings from returning safely." ”
Zhao Ge Lao took over: "Let's go find the rest of the people and close together in one place first." ”
……
The fight has come to an end.
General Chu led his troops to search for the figure of the traitor everywhere, and wanted to catch him alive for interrogation.
His Royal Highness the King of Shu led hundreds of personal soldiers to search for Emperor Jian'an and the vassal kings.
Searching all the rooms, I saw only many officials who described themselves as embarrassed and tearful. But Emperor Jian'an was nowhere to be seen, and several vassal kings were nowhere to be seen.
His Royal Highness the King of Shu has stayed up from last night to now, and he has not seen any tiredness, and his handsome face is cold. Except for the slight bloodshot eyes, there is no difference in the slightest.
100,000 soldiers are enough to destroy all the traitors.
Sheng Hong did not take the opportunity to show off or be prestigious, and under the escort of hundreds of personal soldiers, there was no need to make a move. The placket and hair were not in disarray.
The soldiers scattered around looking for people, but the pro-soldiers on Sheng Hong's side did not move, and guarded Sheng Hong's side layer by layer.
The Imperial Tomb occupies a huge area, and it takes a lot of time to search carefully. Fortunately, at this time, the battle situation was decided, and there were a lot of soldiers, and in less than half an hour, the imperial tomb was searched.
"Your Highness, the little one has found a secret room. The chamber was built underground, guarded by many thieves. The emperor and several royal palaces of the vassal kings should be in the secret room. ”
Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows, and there was naturally a coldness in his voice: "You lead the way." ”
The secret chamber was built in the northeast corner of the Imperial Mausoleum, and the entrance was hidden in a well, which was quite hidden. And the entrance is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It took another half an hour to eradicate all the thieves guarding the secret room.
Zhou Quan led more than a dozen soldiers to the secret room to explore, and after a stick of incense, he came back with a complicated expression, and reported in a low voice: "Your Highness, several vassal kings are described as haggard, but there is no big problem. It's just that the emperor has already died, and his body was placed in an ice coffin. ”
Sheng Hong was silent for a moment.
Emperor Jian'an is indeed dead.
For him, this is undoubtedly good news. It also saves a lot of follow-up trouble.
But in his heart, he didn't feel happy, and his mood was even a little obscure and heavy.
"Ask a few vassal kings to come out!" Sheng Hong commanded in a deep voice.
Zhou Quan hesitated slightly, lowered his voice and said: "Several His Highnesses said that they would like to invite His Royal Highness the King of Shu into the secret room, they have something extremely important to say to His Highness alone." ”
Alone in the secret room?
Scold!
Shouldn't it be delusional to have a brother and give him a knife when he is in tears!
Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and said decisively: "If you have anything to say, it's not too late to say it when it comes out." When they refuse to come out, you bring them down and 'please' them come out. ”
