Chapter 42: The Great Song Dynasty Is Dying Again?
"Let's go!"
Ling Fox Wing waved his hand suddenly, and in an instant, billowing smoke and dust suddenly rose on the ground, as if an earthquake had occurred.
Fifty thousand cavalry of the Fire Empire, like a galloping dragon, rushed towards the south!
Disappear into the night!
Two days later.
The north bank of the Yangtze River.
A large number of wooden boats have long been moored on the shore.
These ships were all prepared by the remnants of the Giant Whale Gang, although Panshan Island was destroyed into ruins by the Sun and Moon God Cult, but the Giant Whale Gang still has a lot of strength in terms of transportation, and they still control part of the transportation in the Yangtze River Basin.
It was simply too easy for them to entangle a group of merchant ships.
"This dog emperor, it's time to pay for his cruelty. ”
On the bow of the merchant ship at the front, Gu Yong looked at the south bank of the river from afar, and from a distance, he could already see the outline of Jinling City.
"The life of the Dog Emperor is taken by me. ”
At the moment when his words fell, a cold voice like a poisonous snake suddenly sounded behind him.
Gu Yong only felt a gust of cold wind blowing from behind, only to see a vague image flickering, and in the next moment, a figure appeared behind him without warning.
The figure was none other than the Great Elder of the Demon Dao.
"That's nature. ”
Gu Yong nodded respectfully.
What is there to rob Zhao Lin's life.
He just wanted to regain the territory of Qinghu Island.
If it is possible, it is best for the other party to get rid of the Eastern Sect Master as well, so that he Qinghu Island can take over the Sun Moon Divine Sect and become the overlord of the entire Jiangnan Martial Arts.
"Who's it? get off the boat and check!"
Just when the army of the Fire Empire was gradually and secretly approaching Jinling City, they were finally interrogated by the patrol soldiers outside the city.
Jinling City, after all, is the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, even if the capital has just been moved now, but the garrison outside the city is not in vain.
"We are businessmen, can we make it convenient?"
Nie Yuanlou shouted at the patrol soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty.
"Merchant, take the road out and take a look!"
The patrol soldier shouted.
Lead?
Nie Yuanlou sneered in his heart, how could they have such a thing?
It seems that they can't get mixed up.
Swish!
At this moment, from the deck, a series of figures suddenly appeared one after another, their bright armor shining with amazing light.
Woohoo blah blah!
Sharp arrows suddenly broke through the air and hit the patrol soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty.
The sound of "plopping" and "plopping" sounded continuously, and all the patrol soldiers fell into the water, and most of them were shot and killed.
"Not good, there are enemies!"
A patrol soldier who was not killed by an arrow pulled the signal flare in his hand.
Boom!
The flare flew high into the air and exploded in mid-air, creating a brilliant firework.
"Oops, the signal flare has been issued, now Jinling City should be on guard!"
Nie Yuanlou's face was ugly.
"It's useless to know, 50,000 troops cover up and break through the city, only in a moment!"
Ling Fox Yi sneered, he had 50,000 troops in hand, launched a night attack, and now he was within walking distance of Jinling City, even if he was discovered, what could he do?
"Kill me!"
Linghu Wing gave orders to the army.
Suddenly, from the merchant ships, the soldiers of the Flame Empire emerged one after another, densely packed, like locusts!
The shouts of killing shook the sky.
At this time, inside the city of Jinling.
Alarm bells are ringing.
The beacon was lit.
The soldiers and civilians in the city were in chaos.
The army of the Agni Empire actually took advantage of the night to secretly cross the Yangtze River and attack Jinling City!
And now, the armies of the Great Song Dynasty are basically scattered on the north bank of the Yangtze River.
The defenders of Jinling City, plus the forbidden army of the Imperial Palace, are less than five thousand!
East Plant.
When Cao Zhengchun heard the news, his head seemed to explode.
"Bastards, you bunch of shit!"
"The enemy army has already arrived in the city, and you don't even know until now?"
All the factory guards knelt down at the bottom of the steps, trembling.
Dongchang is known as the emperor's eyes, controlling the intelligence of the world, from hundreds of officials to Li Min, who is aware of everything!
But now, the army of the Fire Empire attacked Jinling City at night.
Dongchang didn't even receive any news.
This is a major dereliction of duty.
"Immediately send a message to General Dian Wei, who is in the camp in Jiangbei, and ask him to return to the city to rescue the army!"
"Yes!"
A thousand households in Dongchang immediately flew up.
"You bunch of waste, hurry up with me to meet Your Majesty!"
Cao Zhengchun took a deep breath, and then immediately performed light skills and swept in the direction of the palace!
......
Emperor's Palace.
Zhao Lin is correcting the folds.
He still didn't know anything about the outside world.
However, Zhao Lin's right eyelid has been beating wildly today, and he is a little restless.
It seems that something big is about to happen.
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, a general covered in blood broke in, and it was Guo Gang, the deputy commander of the forbidden army.
Guo Gang knelt on the ground at the moment he saw Zhao Lin, "Your Majesty, it's not good! The army of the Fire Empire attacked Jinling City at night, and now it has arrived outside the city and is attacking the city!"
"An army of fire?"
Zhao Lin was taken aback.
The army of flames unexpectedly arrived under the city of Jinling?
It sounds like an impossible thing.
But if you think about it carefully, if there is an internal response, so that this fire army can bypass the army of the Great Song Dynasty in Jiangbei and secretly cross the river, then it is not impossible to attack Jinling City at night.
With the strength of Jinling City, if you don't act immediately, I'm afraid there will be danger.
"Your Majesty, there are so many enemy troops that Jinling City may not be able to hold it,"
Guo Gang seemed to be very loyal, and said earnestly: "While the city is not broken, you should hurry up and escape from the south gate with the Queen Mother and the noble concubine, and avoid it for the time being!"
"I am the king of a country, if I leave, this Jinling City will really not be able to hold it. ”
Zhao Lin shook his head and said.
There was a huge disparity between the forces in the city and the enemy.
If it is learned that he, the emperor, has run away, I am afraid that the morale of the soldiers defending the city will collapse in an instant.
"Your Majesty, but if you don't leave, it's too late!"
Guo Gang was very anxious, he didn't know how long that little force could resist, maybe at this time, the city had already been breached.
"I believe that my forbidden army will not be broken by the enemy so quickly. ”
Zhao Lin waved his hand, but his expression was very calm, and then he shouted at the two Dongchang factory guards in the shadows behind him: "Order the Dongfang Sect Master, let him go to the city wall to meet me!"
"Yes!"
The two factory guards were the ones who Cao Zhengchun deliberately stayed by Zhao Lin's side and was responsible for the interrogation, and they immediately left and quickly disappeared into the palace.
After that, Zhao Lin's eyes also suddenly flashed with a sharp light, and said: "I want to see which way the bull ghost and snake god dares to play a surprise attack in front of me." ”
As soon as he stepped on his feet, Zhao Lin walked towards the outside of the palace.
"Alas!"
Guo Gang sighed heavily, feeling that Zhao Lin was sending him to death.
If there is a great general, Dian Wei and the Tiger Guard, then naturally there is no need to worry about the city being breached, but the problem is that Dian Wei and the Tiger Defender are not in the city.
They want to rely on thousands of people to defend Jinling City, which is simply a fantasy.
It's impossible.
At this time, it is likely that the Great Song Dynasty is about to fall.
