Chapter 141: Arson

"Take care all the way."

Liu Hong's thousand words came to his lips, and there was only one sentence left to take care.

Watching the hundred-person team drift away, he sighed helplessly.

War is merciless.

I don't know when we will be able to unify the world, let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and resume the life they once had.

……

Far from the other side.

Severus dynasty.

"Your Majesty, quick! Go here! ”

Duke Montaki grabbed Gaita, and the two of them slipped into a secret passage.

Speaking of which, the last part of this secret passage was opened by Liu Hong.

Unexpectedly, it has come in handy now.

I saw that inside and outside the palace at this time, the sound of muskets rang out one after another.

A thunderbolt fell on the palace and exploded, cracking the walls and rubble.

Geta and Duke Muntaki followed the trail, looking from time to time to see if there were any pursuers behind them.

Fortunately, until the two escaped, no one found out.

Gaita breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at the palace where she had lived for decades.

"Come on, Your Majesty, we'll be back sooner or later."

"I've left a thousand-strong musketeer force outside the city, enough to escort you to safety."

Duke Muntaki said anxiously.

Hearing this, Gaita was stunned, and a look of remorse flashed in his eyes, and then he followed in the footsteps of Duke Montaqui.

Not so long ago.

His ministers suddenly led a large army to rebel.

Twenty of the dozens of legions of the entire Severus dynasty immediately responded with the intention of overthrowing the rule of Gaita.

However, the reasons for overturning it are absurd.

It turned out that Gaita had already been killed, and now Gaita was just a puppet to be manipulated.

Twenty legions were all under such clumsy reasons and banners.

No matter how stupid Gaita was, he could figure out what was going on.

Apparently this group of rebels had long been plotting to seize their own throne.

I don't even know what means were used to rebel against a large number of musketeers.

You must know that the Marquis and Duke who are in charge of these troops are the ones who supported Geta during the war with Caracalla.

Therefore, in order to give back to these people, Gaita distributed a part of the musketeers to these marquises.

Who would have thought that these people would now turn their guns and aim the contradiction at him.

Fortunately, after Liu Hong's teaching, Gaita knows not to believe too much in anyone's truth.

He had ten legions and two thousand musketeers in his hands.

As long as he can escape, Gaita believes that he will come back one day.

Soon he found his two thousand musketeers, under the protection of Duke Montaqui's private soldiers.

He then quickly left the city of Rome and ran towards the garrison of the ten legions.

Meanwhile.

Inside the Royal Palace.

Several men with menacing faces carried muskets into Gaita's bedroom.

After discovering that the bedroom was empty.

Several people immediately dispersed to search.

However, after sweeping around for a long time, there was no sign of Gaita.

"Well, where's that guy's body? Let me take a good look. ”

Berkeley smiled and walked over quickly.

At this time, he only felt refreshed.

Gaita was finally overthrown by him.

You must know that in order to be able to sit in the position of king, he himself does not know how much effort he has put in.

Originally, Berkeley was still worried about how to solve Caracalla.

Unexpectedly, Liu Hong and Gaita solved Caracalla first.

However, when Liu Hong showed his ability, Berkeley did not dare to have any thoughts about Gaita's throne at all.

It wasn't until Liu Hong left by boat that he slowly showed his fangs.

First, he unknowingly rebelled against the Marquis and Duke, who were in charge of most of the musketeers.

He rebelled against twenty more legions.

Eventually, when the strength was accumulated, Berkeley began to act.

It's just that he didn't expect the operation to go so smoothly.

The thousands of defenders in the palace barely managed to hold him back.

He was to hang the corpse of Geita at the head of Rome to tell everyone about his strength.

It's just a tower, and it's not qualified to do this position at all!

However, Berkeley noticed that there was something wrong with the faces of the people in front of him.

There was a sudden chuckle in my heart.

"What, why don't you speak?"

Hear Berkeley's words of implicit murderous intent.

Several people couldn't help but shudder.

"Gaita... Gaita is not in the palace! ”

"A few of us have almost searched the palace, and we can't find him at all!"

One man spoke boldly.

A murderous intent flashed in Berkeley's eyes.

Then came endless anger.

If you don't see Gaita's body, you can be sure of one thing.

Instead of dying, Geeta escaped from the palace.

"Damn, it's a thousand calculations, didn't you expect to let this guy run away in the end?"

Berkeley was shocked and furious.

What would he do if he really let Geta run out?

Although Gaita has little ability, he can't stand the other party, and he also has an army in his hands.

Maybe he'll follow his lead and launch a raid at some point.

What's more.

Berkeley didn't know if Gaita would get Liu back again.

After all, when Caracalla was very strong, Liu Hong was able to take Gaita to turn the tables.

Berkeley didn't think he was much better than Caracalla.

As soon as I thought of this possibility.

The good mood just now disappeared in an instant.

"Damn it, search every corner for me at once!"

"No, set fire to me! Burn this place to the ground! ”

Berkeley immediately ordered.

However, when they heard this, they did not take action for a long time, but looked at Berkeley with a little hesitation.

"My lord, such a beautiful palace, if it burns down, ......"

"I'll let you burn it!"

Berkeley snapped.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't say anything, so they could only do what the other party asked them to do immediately.

In an instant, a monstrous fire rose up, quickly engulfing the entire palace.

The firelight here also attracts the attention of many outsiders.

"Isn't it, Berkeley is so ruthless that even the palace is burned?"

"Tut-tut, if you want to rebuild a new palace, I don't know how long it will take."

"Why did this guy set fire to the palace?"

For a while, the dukes and marquis outside the palace were talking about it.

They couldn't figure out why Berkeley set fire to the palace.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger.

Gaita, who was running away, suddenly felt that her sleeve had been pulled, and when she looked back, she saw that Duke Montaki was pointing in one direction.

Gaita looked in the direction the other party was pointing, and the whole person froze in place for a moment.

I saw the position in the east, the fire was soaring into the sky, and the smoke covered the sun.

"It's ......"

Gaita froze in place.

That place... Unexpectedly...

How is this possible?

Why did the palace suddenly catch fire?
