Chapter 348: Entering the City
When Yang Mu rode to the city gate, this was when the city gate was about to open, and he sorted out the five hundred vanguard troops, held the city entry token, and entered the city on horseback.
Five hundred golden armor, exuding a cold and murderous halo in the morning light, followed behind Yang Mu in a red cloak, and entered the capital in an orderly manner.
Although the hour was still early, as soon as the city gate was opened, the merchants and people who had risen in the morning had already appeared near the city gate, and some people who had risen early to buy vegetables and cook also went out.
This is the first time that the Vermilion Bird Army has appeared in the field of vision of the people in the capital for decades, and these female soldiers in armor are so excited that their cheeks are flushed, their waists are straightened, and their eyes are flashing with excitement.
Walking through the streets and alleys, how many people were amazed, it turned out that women can be so heroic, not weak willows to support the wind.
The royal palace is in the west of the city, covering an area of 5,000 acres, with mountains, rivers and courtyards, and is a place for the royal summer vacation.
To the west of the palace, there is a small hillside, which has been empty, and now it has been granted to the Suzaku Army as a temporary military camp, and when the palace is handed over to the Praetorian Guard, it can take over the barracks of the palace.
The Suzaku army has a large number of people, but I am afraid that the barracks of the palace are not enough, so only half of them can be stationed here.
Leaving most of the horses to build a camp here, Yang Mu took his personal soldier Bai Yao to the palace.
Now it is only the end of February, and the weather is still cold, so most of the nobles live in the palace, and only a few concubines were sent to the palace by the queen mother of the two palaces.
If there is no powerful concubine, she will not be taken seriously, and the royal forest army here in the palace is only a hundred people.
This number of people, for a palace of 5,000 acres, is almost the same as no garrison, and it is difficult to guard even the four gates.
The centurion of the Imperial Forest Army, who is responsible for guarding the palace, is named Xue Qian, and is the younger brother of Xue Zhi, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army.
Yang Mu took Bai Yao to the south gate, this is the main gate of the palace, it stands to reason that Xue Qian should be on duty here.
There were nearly twenty Imperial Forest Army standing at the south gate, led by a bearded man, standing on the steps, looking at Yang Mu and the others condescendingly, and then very casually took the official document handed by Bai Yao for changing guards, and said arrogantly: "Wait!" ”
Then he slowly entered the gate, and muttered: "It's really a bad day, even girls can be soldiers." ”
Bai Yao's face sank, glanced at Yang Mu, who had no expression, and didn't speak.
After a long time, nearly a quarter of an hour, the man had not returned, and Xue Qian was not seen.
Yang Mu sneered and asked a royal forest army beside him: "Are you General Xue on duty today?" ”
The Imperial Forest Army glanced at Yang Mu and did not speak, as if the culture had not heard it just now, and the expression on his face was faintly disdainful.
Yang Mu snorted coldly in his heart, I, a person who speaks with my fists, have not been arrogant for too long, and no one in the capital knows the notoriety of my little overlord in Zhupo Village, right?
Yang Mu slowly took a few steps back, stood at the foot of the steps, and found an angle.
Bai Yao came down the steps in surprise and asked, "Deputy commander, are we leaving?" ”
Yang Mu waved his hand and let Bai Yao stand behind him, with excitement in his eyes.
She hasn't played since she entered the second grade.
The qi sank into the dantian, and luck exploded, rushing out of the mouth.
"Yang Mu, the deputy commander of the Vermilion Bird Army, is ordered to exchange guards with the Royal Forest Army! Centurion Xue Qian refused to meet, could it be that he wanted to resist the decree and disrespect? I hit it dozens of times, and if I don't come out, I'll go to the palace to impeach! ”
Her internal force is close to terror, deliberately increasing the scope of her internal force, and even bringing lethality.
The twenty guards at the gate were first dizzy and black-eyed, and some even began to bleed.
"Ten!"
"Nine!"
"Eight!"
With each countdown number, her internal strength and lethality increased by one point, and some of the guards at the gate were already beginning to shed blood and tears.
The scene was chaotic.
Yang Mu just didn't see it, he still went his own way, and the speed of the countdown was not fast, but it was definitely not slow.
"Seven!"
"Six!"
The bearded man who was hiding at the door to watch the show only felt his blood surging at the moment, and he couldn't hold back anymore, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Yang Mu naturally knew that he was hiding at the door, and his internal force also consciously attacked him, but how could a seventh-grade martial artist withstand a second-grade martial artist's targeted attack on him?
With a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth, Yang Mu let out another snort towards the door.
"Five!"
"Boom!" The bearded man slammed his head on the door, and his originally dizzy head was sobered up a little, but his internal force was shaken, and he spit out a mouthful of blood.
The bearded man immediately hurried out from behind the door and said anxiously: "Don't shout! ”
Yang Mu put his hands behind his back and said indifferently: "If you don't dodge, the next sound, you will die." ”
The bearded man was stunned for a moment, only to find himself standing in the center of the gate, and quickly dodged away, "What do you want to do?" Our General Xue is not here! ”
Bai Yao said angrily: "Since you are not here, why did you accept our letter of change of guard and tell us to wait?" ”
Yang Mu patted the golden shoulder pad on Bai Yao's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, when I finish counting, he will come out." ”
As she spoke, she roughly calculated the location of the room on duty, concentrated her internal force, and continued to count down: "Four!" ”
When the words fell, the corners of Yang Mu's mouth hooked even more, and she had already heard a curse, so she raised her internal strength and continued to speak towards that position.
"Three!"
"Poof!" There was a slight sound of vomiting blood.
Yang Mu was there, and he was about to continue to make a sound, when he heard someone shouting loudly in the courtyard behind the door: "Shut up!" ”
Yang Mu didn't hear it, continued to improve his internal strength, and said loudly: "Two! ”
"Bang dang!" The sound of tables and chairs being knocked over!
The next moment, a one-eyed man in golden armor and a black cloak came out of it, his eyes wide and with a murderous aura.
It's just that the blood stains on the corners of his mouth reveal his external strength and middle dryness.
Yang Mu looked at the visitor with a smile and said, "Well, it seems that the Imperial Forest Army is lying and doesn't make drafts, isn't General Xue Qian?" How can you say that it is not there? ”
After Xue Qian hurriedly came out, when he saw the scene in front of him, he only felt that his qi and blood were surging violently.
The twenty defenders are now almost all lying to the ground with their heads in their hands, all of them in inexplicable pain, and there are still blood stains on the ground, obviously they have been shocked to the internal force, vomiting blood and internal injuries.
"Is this going to war with my Imperial Forest Army? Innocently wounding the Imperial Guards will be punished as rebels! ”
Xue Qian can be described as a low-class and bold, pointing at Yang Mu's fingers trembling slightly, and he doesn't know whether he is angry or frightened.
Yang Mu lowered his head and sneered disdainfully, and said, "General Xue Qian, didn't your brother Xue Zhi tell you that it's best not to test me with inferior methods?" ”
Xue Qian was stunned, last night Xue Zhi did let him think of a test of Yang Mu's temperament and ability, and he did say that the technique was more clever.
But he didn't directly attack Yang Mu, he used the means in the army!
