Chapter 178: Escape from the Palace, Everything is a Scheme

As time slowly passed, the entire Great Chu Emperor began to be in turmoil.

The garrisons that had urgently assembled from the camps and garrisons of all sides to the walls and gates of the four sides broke the silence and peace of the night, and clothed the entire city with a tense and unpredictable sense of crisis.

At the same time, the forbidden army in the palace is also gathering, and some people are being secretly arranged in one place.

Three quarters of an hour later, Mi Yan and the others, who were anxiously waiting in the military strategy hall, finally ushered in the news.

"Report! Empress Dowager Qi, high in the sky outside the gate of the imperial capital Sifang, there are all huge strange birds appearing! ”

Strange birds?

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then stared at Zhang Dafang in unison.

Zhang Dafang laughed, raised his neck and said, "That's not a strange bird, it's my Jinpeng battleship in Great Xia!" ”

"As soon as Jinpeng comes out, there will be no one in the world who will not break it!"

Hearing Zhang Dafang's explanation, some people's faces changed slightly, and some people laughed.

"What bullshit battleship? It's just some large armored vehicles that can carry people. My Great Chu Emperor is fully guarded, if they dare to approach, they will be destroyed one by one! ”

"Wreck?"

Zhang Dafang sneered and said disdainfully: "You guys are too taken for granted, you actually don't know anything about the background of my Great Xia!" ”

"I might as well tell you, the reason why my Great Xia was able to easily take the entire Yunbo Imperial Capital in just one hour is the credit of the Jinpeng Battleship!"

"This time, the Bifang Legion went out on the expedition, and it brought hundreds of large and small Jinpeng warships, which can carry more than 300,000 elites!"

"Do you think the main force of the Bifang Legion is still far west? Oh, I'll tell you the truth, they're actually out of town! ”

"In other words, it is already doomed that the Great Chu Emperor has been captured, and no one can reverse the situation!"

"The reason why I want to persuade Daxia to surrender is just that I don't want to kill too many people, and on the other hand, I don't want to cause too much damage to the prosperous ancient capital with a long history on the part of the Great Chu Imperial Capital."

"It's just a pity that you refused."

Speaking of this, Zhang Dafang shrugged his shoulders with a look of regret.

"Rats! Dare to bewitch the public! ”

Seeing that many ministers were so frightened that their faces turned pale, Lian Sansheng shouted angrily.

"I have laid out the facts before you, and whether you believe it or not is your own business."

Zhang Dafang spread his hands indifferently, and then bowed to Qi Yan.

"Empress Dowager Chu, although you have refused to surrender, it is not without room for redemption."

"In order not to cause too much damage to the Great Chu Imperial Capital, the next attack, our army will only start from one of the directions."

"When our Jinpeng battleship arrives in the sky above the palace, you will have a second chance, and that will be the last chance!"

"If you still choose to refuse and continue to resist stubbornly, then our army will not have any more hands! The entire Great Chu Emperor will also be bloodied and turned into rubble because of your choice! ”

Listening to Zhang Dafang's threat, the dignitaries of Dachu were shocked and angry, they instinctively didn't believe it, but when they thought of the strange fall of the Yunbo Imperial Capital, they hesitated.

At this moment, another figure rushed in.

"Report! The Empress Dowager! The enemy attacked from the direction of the South Gate! ”

Looking at the young general with a pale face, everyone's hearts were raised.

"How's the battle going?"

Mi Yan leaned forward slightly and asked nervously.

The young general swallowed and gritted his teeth.

"Back to the Queen Mother, those strange birds' attack power is extremely terrifying, the enemy army bombarded the city gate and the city wall with ten huge strange birds, which has collapsed most of the city gate tower, and the city gate has been broken, and even the wall head of the city wall has been cut off a large layer, and there are many cracks on the city wall! The garrison at the South Gate suffered heavy casualties! ”

"And those strange birds are extremely defensive, and our army can hardly pose a threat to them. Queen Mother, South City Gate, I'm afraid it will fall soon! ”

"What?!"

Hearing the answer, everyone was shocked.

Is the Jinpeng battleship really so terrifying?

And, how long has it been?

"Queen Mother, this... What to do? ”

Many ministers suddenly panicked and stared at Mi Yan in panic.

At this time, Lian Sansheng stopped talking, and was silent with a gloomy face.

If what Zhang Dafang said was true, then the imperial capital would definitely not be able to be saved, even if the 200,000 elite soldiers of the Zhongyue battalion rushed to help, it would be useless.

After all, the other party has brought in an army of 300,000, and the combat power of the Great Xia army is much stronger than that of the Chu army!

The other party has Jinpeng warships, and the so-called strong city defense has no effect at all, and the garrison is completely unreliable, and only 150,000 forbidden troops can be used.

The 150,000 forbidden troops plus the 200,000 troops of the Zhongyue battalion could not be the opponent of the other side.

What's more, the forbidden army may not be able to hold out until the army of the Zhongyue battalion arrives.

Mi Yan pursed her lips and her expression changed, and after thinking for a while, her eyes suddenly changed.

"Someone, drag him out!"

"No!"

A young general of the forbidden army immediately stepped forward and beckoned a few guards to tie Zhang Dafang and take him out.

When Zhang Dafang disappeared, Mi Yan suddenly got up.

"The imperial capital, it seems that it can't be saved."

"For today's plan, the only way to do this is to exchange time for living space."

"Spread the message of the mourning family, and order the Zhongyue battalion to cancel the reinforcement of the imperial capital and prepare for war in the battalion! Then order the armies of all sides to gather at the Zhongyue camp immediately! ”

"In addition, the king of the decree is ordered to lead the army to return to the aid immediately!"

"Obey the Empress Dowager's decree!"

In this case, there is nothing others can do but acquiesce.

Then, Mi Yan looked at the chief and deputy commanders of the forbidden army.

"Song Aiqing, Lin Aiqing, my Great Chu must not surrender without a fight, and my Great Chu Palace cannot be easily handed over to Great Xia. Therefore, the mourning family needs one person to lead the soldiers of the forbidden army to fight to the death against the enemy! Inflict as much damage as possible on the Great Xia army and reduce its strength! Which of the two Aiqing is willing to stay? ”

The two Commanders looked at each other, then clenched their fists without hesitation.

"I am willing to stay and fight to the death with the enemy!"

"Okay, it's worthy of being the backbone of my Da Chu!"

Mi Yan nodded approvingly, stared at the two of them for a while, and finally named the orthodox leader.

"Song Aiqing, then this task will be handed over to you."

"Minister, swear to protect the palace to the death!"

Commander Song clenched his fists heavily, and his eyes showed a will to die.

Mi Yan glanced at Commander Song in a complicated manner, and then stared at the deputy commander of the forbidden army.

"Lin Aiqing, you immediately lead 10,000 forbidden troops and open the secret path of Nirvana!"

"As for all Aiqing, you are all the humerus and backbone of my Great Chu, so go out of the palace with the mourning family and Your Majesty. As long as we arrive at the Zhongyue camp, and there is a steady stream of armies coming in, we will definitely be able to repel the Great Xia army and regain everything that our Great Chu has lost! ”

"Obey the Empress Dowager's decree!"

At such a time, in the face of such a will, naturally no one resisted.

If there is hope of escape, who will refuse?

……

In a small room somewhere, looking at the young general of the forbidden army who was slowly drawing his sword, Zhang Dafang's nervous heart rose to his throat.

Although he was ready to die before he came, who wouldn't want to struggle if it was possible?

"This brother, don't be impulsive, your queen mother just asked you to take me out, but she didn't let you kill me!"

The young general frowned, but the movements in his hands did not stop.

Seeing the blade of the cold light flickering towards his neck gradually, Zhang Dafang's heart was even more anxious.

"Little brother, do you have a problem with your brain? Do you want your family to pay in blood for your wrongdoing?! ”

As soon as these words came out, the young general was stunned at first, and then the cold light in his eyes was great, and the cold killing intent was no longer hidden.

Zhang Dafang did not flinch and continued to speak quickly.

"I am an envoy of Great Xia! If I die, do you think my Great Xia will spare the executioner? ”

"The envoys who dare to kill me in Great Xia, not to mention you and your relatives, even your nine clans, will not be protected!"

"Now that my Great Xia army has broken through the South City Gate, soon, the entire Great Chu Emperor will fall into the hands of my Great Xia! If you dare to kill me, what will happen to you, I don't need to say more, right? ”

"On the contrary, if you are willing to let me go, then I can guarantee you, as well as the lives of all your relatives, as well as your net worth!"

"Moreover, by doing so, you are equivalent to saving the Great Xia envoys, and you will also receive extremely rich rewards!"

"How? One side of hell, one side of heaven, think about it. ”

After speaking, Zhang Dayi closed his mouth, and the knife of the forbidden army junior general also stopped at Zhang Dafang's neck.

There is no doubt that Zhang Dafang's coercion and inducement are very effective.

The young general of the forbidden army had a changing complexion, and he was doing a fierce ideological struggle and struggle in his heart.

Seeing this, Zhang Dafang opened his mouth again.

"Brother, I know what you're struggling with. But you must know that your queen mother did not give you the order to kill me at all. ”

"So, even if you let me go, it doesn't mean that you are disloyal to Da Chu!"

Hearing this, the young general's eyes flashed.

After two breaths of silence, the young general suddenly shook his wrist and waved the hilt of his knife.

Zhang Dafang felt a chill in his heart, and closed his eyes helplessly.

However, the imaginary pain did not come.

When he opened his eyes, Zhang Dafang realized that the other party had cut the forbidden rope on his body.

"I'll give you a set of forbidden army armor later, and after you change into it, follow me honestly, don't do anything abnormal!"

The young general of the forbidden army finally opened his mouth, and after an expressionless command, he turned around and walked inside.

Zhang Dafang was stunned for a moment, and then a happy smile appeared on his face for the rest of his life.

……

High in the sky, on a cruise-class Jinpeng battleship, Zhou Ying was meditating with his eyes closed.

"Report! Qi Zhou Shuai, bad guy spy urgent report! ”

Zhou Ying opened his eyes and stared at the person who spoke.

"Speak."

"No! Zhou Shuai, the Empress Dowager of Great Chu, the Little Emperor, and a group of Great Chu officials stepped into the secret path of Nirvana under the protection of 10,000 forbidden troops! ”

After hearing this news, a gleam flashed in Zhou Ying's eyes.

Fish, in the net!

In fact, the existence of the Nirvana Secret Path was discovered by unscrupulous agents two months ago, and everything that happens today is actually preparing for this moment.

With the battleship delivery ability possessed by the Bifang Legion, it is too difficult to storm the Great Chu Palace.

Therefore, he wanted to force the ruler of Great Chu out of the palace, and then he was captured!

If it can be done smoothly, then the war in Dachu will be resolved in a very short time!

Now, this most crucial step has been successfully taken!

Starting tomorrow, it will be released in three chapters, and the plus chapter will be sent at 0:00 in the morning
