Chapter Seventy-Two: Taking the Royal City

Just after the dragon-shaped fireworks in Zhang Wuji's hand exploded in the sky, a melodious horn sounded around Alimali City.

Hearing the sound of the horn, Zhang Wuji said: "It seems that the attack is about to be launched." I don't know what happened to the Dragon King and Sister Caiwei's arrangement? ”

When Zhao Min heard this voice, he sighed and said, "Hey! If it had been attacked at night, the losses would have been much smaller. ”

Zhang Wuji looked at Zhao Min beside him: "Minmin, are you blaming me for acting rashly?" ”

Zhao Min shook his head and said, "It's not true, it's just a matter of facts." But you and I all have the same values, both are people who are willing to sacrifice all interests for the sake of their lovers. Therefore, I am not in a position to accuse you of ignorance of the general situation and disregard for the overall situation. Saying that, Zhao Min sighed.

Zhang Wuji shook his neck, moved his body, and said, "In that case, then let's go out to help fight." ”

Hearing Zhang Wuji's words, Zhao Min was sitting on the stone steps at this time.

Zhou Zhiruo said: "It's really a bit difficult for her to let a Mongol kill her kindred." In that case, let's be here with this little girl. Xiao Zhao, Brother Wuji, let's go and deal with Miss Yang. ”

Zhang Wuji nodded and said, "In that case."

Zhao Min said: "No need, now we have cleared out the nobles in the palace, and now the dragons outside are leaderless, and when they encounter an attack of this level by the Ming Sect, there must have been chaos outside, and there is no way to stop the effective resistance." And with Sister Yang and the ruling lord as the internal response, we don't have to make any effort. Just wait for them to arrive. ”

Zhang Wuji also sat down when he heard this, he sat next to Zhao Min and said, "Min Min is reasonable. Then we will wait for the good news of the Dragon King, Monk Peng. ”

Zhao Min put his head on Zhang Wuji's shoulder and said, "That's right." To be a leader, don't do everything yourself. You have to give your subordinates a little room to do their best. If you do everything yourself, what else do you do? ”

Zhang Wuji smiled and stretched out his hand to touch Zhao Min's little face.

In this way, everyone sat together on the stone steps outside the main hall, waiting for the army led by Peng Yingyu to attack the city.

Because the army is attacking the city, there is already a big chaos in the city, and many palace attendants and guards still want to take the opportunity to sneak in and take advantage of the fire to rob.

But when he saw Zhang Wuji and others squatting in front of the main hall, he had no choice but to keep to himself.

Compared with the people outside, the ladies in the harem of the palace are even more scared.

The shouts of killing outside the palace were getting closer, and they didn't know what enemy they were facing.

They learned from the mouths of the maids who had fled back from the front hall that there were monsters in front of them, but as soon as they raised their hands, the guards in the palace were already heavily killed and wounded.

Although the women tried to escape, the high-walled compound, which was usually used to protect them, was now a cage for them.

They all know that as long as they get out of here and encounter rebels outside, they will probably be more than lucky.

Instead of going out to die and staying here, you can live for a while and a half.

Now the ladies of the Chagatai Khanate have gathered at the queen's residence, and everyone is anxiously waiting for their final fate.

Around dusk, the shouting of the outer city gradually stopped, and then the sound of the drawbridge being lowered sounded, and then a large group of soldiers rushed in.

Behind the soldiers, striding in was the Mingjiao people.

The leader wearing armor is Peng Yingyu, the main commander of the operation. And beside him was the archon who opened the gates of the palace. And Daisy and the woman in the yellow shirt followed behind them.

The troops who had rushed into the palace saw several men and women dressed in Mongol clothes sitting on the steps, and without saying a word, they surrounded them. Soon surrounded Zhang Wuji and the others.

Peng Yingyu was looking at the corpses on the ground in the front hall of the palace, and didn't notice Zhang Wuji sitting on it for a while.

At this time, Peng Yingyu scolded: "Bold! How dare you be rude to Your Majesty! ”

Hearing the reprimand of the leading general, the sergeants immediately put down the blades in their hands, and then knelt on the ground and bowed to Zhang Wuji.

Zhang Wuji saw Peng Yingyu walking towards him, he was still sitting on the steps, and then held his chin and said, "It's much slower than I imagined." ”

Peng Yingyu walked closer, bowed to Zhang Wuji and said, "Back to Your Majesty, because there are many enemy troops in the city, it took a little more time for the ministers to send people to clear them. ”

Zhang Wuji asked, "What about our losses?" ”

Peng Yingyu replied: "The battle has just ended, and our capture and losses are now being coordinated, and the minister will return to His Majesty later." ”

Zhang Wuji stood up and said, "Hmm! Now that we've captured this place, let's clean it up first. ”

Peng Yingyu replied, "Yes! ”

Saying that, Peng Yingyu waved her hand, and the sergeants who came with her immediately stepped forward and began to clean up the "battlefield".

Moved all the bones out of the hall, and after a little cleaning, Zhang Wuji and the others returned to the main hall.

The person sitting on the chair before was King Chagatai Khan, but now it has been replaced by Zhang Wuji.

Zhang Wuji sat on it, holding his chin, and then looked at the women standing under His Highness.

Seeing this, Zhao Min teased: "Brother Wuji, now that you have become the Son of Heaven, you must have some prestige of the Son of Heaven, what do you look like now?" ”

When Zhang Wuji heard this, he leaned back, then sat down and said: "What kind of majesty of the Son of Heaven, this is not our palace, it is almost enough, where can there be so many courtesies." ”

Seeing his appearance, all the daughters of His Highness laughed.

Zhang Wuji remembered something, then sat up straight and asked, "By the way, Dragon King, Sister Cai Wei." I have something to ask you. After our army entered the city, could there be illegal things such as indiscriminate explosions, murder and arson, rape and plunder? ”

Before Dai Qisi could speak, the woman in the yellow shirt replied calmly: "Yes! ”

Hearing the yellow-shirted woman's answer, Zhang Wuji couldn't help frowning.

But the woman in the yellow shirt didn't finish her words. The woman in the yellow shirt said with a smile: "After the city is broken, it is difficult to control it for a while, and this kind of thing is inevitable. However, after Mr. Peng entered the city, he immediately punished the sergeants who committed the crime, and beheaded them all for public display. Compensation was also given to the victims. It is precisely because of these things that we are one step late. ”

After Zhang Wuji listened, he nodded with satisfaction.

The mood of the woman in the yellow shirt is the same as Zhang Wuji.

Because the dragons in the city were leaderless, the Mongolian nobles who were in charge of commanding the army were all served by Zhang Wuji, and the soldiers of the Chagatai Khanate were unrestrained, and they immediately began to plunder the people, and the two female servants in the yellow shirt had been helping the victimized people before.

Although this kind of thing happened after the Ming army broke the city, it was very rare. Only more than 50 people of color eyes surrendered to the army to commit adultery, murder and arson. The rest of the Ming army did not rob the people and did not kill innocents indiscriminately.

Instead, they occupied the government in an orderly manner, surrounded the mansion, and then checked one by one.

After Peng Yingyu entered the city, she fought street battles with the defenders while cleaning up the order, not only killing those enemy soldiers who were causing trouble, but also punishing those on her side.

Previously, the woman in the yellow shirt still had doubts about Zhang Wuji's regime, but today she saw the discipline of the Ming army with her own eyes. She was firm in her choice.
