Chapter Ninety-Seven: Mutiny

The military parade is an annual festival in the city of Chaoge, and at the end of the old year and the beginning of the new year, King Wei will use the military parade to show his subjects the majesty and majesty of the army.

On the one hand, it is to show the prestige of the king, and on the other hand, it is also to tell his people that I can protect you.

This year's military parade ceremony is particularly eye-catching, because the new army has just been expanded, and the people of Chaoge City want to see the demeanor of this new army.

After the military parade began, for several days in a row, the city was extremely lively.

Three armies were stationed outside the city every day, and they entered the city in the morning, noon, and afternoon respectively, and received the people's salutes all the way, passing in front of the palace gate, and conducting formation drills in the huge square. At that time, King Wei will be on the upper floor of the palace to comfort the soldiers under the city. After each army has left the city, the second army can enter the city, and once it is out of the city, it does not look back, but goes straight to the garrison thousands of miles away.

For several days, the military parade has been going on in such an orderly manner.

This kind of festival usually starts with the high temperament of countless spectators, and when it is repeated day after day, everyone only feels tired at the end, and gradually the curiosity and excitement in their hearts are reduced.

Halfway through the military parade, which lasted for half a month, and when it came to an end, the people in the city had lost patience and interest and returned to their normal lives.

In the afternoon of that day, an elite infantry under the command of Wu He entered the city for a drill.

This is the last army under the command of Wu He to participate in the military parade, divided into three columns, respectively equipped with a unified standard of knives, swords, guns as blades, at the same time, they also carry arrows on their backs.

Under the heavy armor is a piece of spiritual armor that is not easy to find.

The leader of these 3,000 infantry is the boss of the Five Tigers of the He family under the pseudonym He Daren, He Dahu.

As usual, the army of 3,000 men marched neatly and solemnly to the square in front of the palace gate. It didn't seem to be much different from every army before it.

And for some reason, as soon as this army entered the city, a large number of people watched and followed.

It seems that the interest that has been worn out has been inexplicably aroused.

It's just that the onlookers are less noisy and cheering than before, and some people feel paradoxically silent, and the overall atmosphere is a little depressing. Like this twilight in the depths of winter.

Weiwang Palace.

King Wei was already waiting on the palace wall, accompanied by a group of princes and ministers.

The elderly King Wei was in an old body, and at this time he was wearing a thick robe, leaning on his exclusive royal seat, yawning all over the sky.

Wei Jing and Wei Yang looked at their father's old appearance, and glanced at each other, they were both fantasizing at the same time, maybe this time next year, the person sitting here would be them.

Wang Donglin's sword stood on one side.

Many palace ministers whispered to you and me, passing the time of waiting.

Shen Fengyang was expressionless all the time, looking at the city wall meticulously.

He kept echoing in his mind what Ye Chonglou had said to him that night, because since the start of the military parade, he had almost always been in fear, not sure if the entire Chaoge City would be in chaos the next moment.

Dong Wenyuan, Liang Guozhang and the others gradually became heavier and heavier, they were standing on the palace wall, with a cold wind blowing in their ears, but cold sweat kept overflowing from their palms and foreheads.

On the walls of the entire palace, some people were calm, and some people were flustered.

There are also absent-minded people.

Shen Qing'er, as the daughter of the Marquis of Changchun, also came to watch the ceremony with her father this time, but she didn't have much interest in this kind of thing, so she just stood beside her father out of etiquette, looking down with bored eyes.

Immediately, she raised her eyebrows, and actually found Ye Chong in the crowd of onlookers below.

In fact, she may not be able to see clearly from such a distance, just because what Ye Chong was wearing on the mountain at this time was the coarse cloth clothes he wore when he first met him in the streets and alleys that day.

That made Shen Qing'er feel familiar, she was a little surprised, she didn't expect Ye Chong to be interested in the military parade.

Was it because his father was the proudest man in the world?

......

Bang!

The sound of countless military boots tapping on the ground in unison came closer and closer.

On the palace wall, Wu He's figure stood upright, proudly looking at the elite troops under his command.

Dong Wenyuan and Liang Guozhang clenched their fists at the same time, and they could see the tension in each other's eyes.

Shen Fengyang's breathing slowed down.

"See King Wei!"

When the army of 3,000 men arrived at the square, they all knelt down on one knee, and the sound was like rolling thunder, which shook the earth.

A smile appeared on the originally tired face of King Wei on the palace wall, waved his hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "Let's start." ”

Immediately, someone shouted on the palace wall, "Wei Wang Ling, the drill begins!"

"All the soldiers listen to the order and line up!"

He Dahu gave an order on the square, and the 3,000 infantry began to practice the formation against the enemy in the square.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The three thousand soldiers were all in high spirits, shouting neat slogans at this time, and the sound was like thunder and majestic.

"Hahaha, good!"

King Wei looked at the majesty of the soldiers below, his heart was extremely happy, and he turned his head to look at Wu Hedao: "General Wu, the momentum of your army far exceeds that of other new armies!"

Wu He bowed his head and said: "This army is indeed extraordinary, but it is not trained by Wei Chen, but a few young officers who have studied the formation method. They want to form an army with excellent weapons, good formations, and top-notch combat effectiveness, and Weichen also lets them give it a try. ”

"Well, good, good. King Wei said three good words one after another, and then pointed down and said, "What kind of formation is this?"

Wu He swept his eyes and said with a smile: "This formation is called the Crane Wing Formation, the general is located in the middle of the formation, surrounded by heavy troops, and the wings of the crane are spread left and right, which is a formation that has both offense and defense. When facing the enemy, the two wings can be opened and closed freely, which can be used to copy the enemy's flanks, and can also be used to flank the enemy who breaks into the middle of the formation. ”

All eyes were attracted by the formations in the square, but Ye Chong walked towards the side of the palace wall step by step in the crowd.

He's waiting. In fact, he had been waiting for many days since he woke up from the retreat, and finally waited for the day when the soldiers wearing the three thousand spirit armor he had made entered the city.

When he first came to this world, when he made that vow in his heart, he never imagined that this day would come in such a way, and so quickly.

And now, the man who had caused his father years of pain was on the palace wall in front of him.

And the situation of that person who slapped himself three times in a row a few days ago, made himself seriously injured, and wanted to kill him as soon as possible is still vivid.

Ye Chong's breathing not only did not tighten at this time, but calmed down.

In fact, with or without that oath, no matter how he wants to win the control of his destiny, he must leave everything behind today and come out to fight.

Because he is the son of Ye Chonglou.

He couldn't watch his father continue to spend his life and carry the pain, after all, his father had already paid for half his life.

He couldn't watch Hou Yinglong and Bamboo Rouge, who had been working hard for many years, charge into battle, but he himself hid comfortably aside, because he regarded them as friends.

What Ye Chong is waiting for now is a signal and his future.

Suddenly, a brilliant firework suddenly rushed into the sky in the distance, exploding a brilliant light.

Ye Chong's eyes were certain, and he quickly swept towards the palace wall.

Wu He's voice, which was telling King Wei about the formation, stopped abruptly, because he saw that the soldiers under the city, after the inexplicable explosion, bent their bows and arrows one after another, pointing at the palace wall, and the atmosphere was treacherous.

"What's going on?"

King Wei also noticed something unusual.

I only heard someone below shouting: "Release!"

Suddenly, arrows were shot from the sky towards the king on the throne.

Something has changed!

Wang Donglin immediately stepped forward, blocking in front of King Wei, holding a long sword, and kept shooting down the arrows that came from him.

The king behind him was extremely angry, his face was sickly flushed with fear, his expression was distorted, his eyes were about to pop out, and he almost roared: "Give me all these counter-soldiers!"

The group of princes and ministers behind him were also in an uproar and were very surprised.

I heard a shout from below.

"Today, King Wei murdered his brother, seized power and usurped the throne, and was mediocre and cruel, and my generation of soldiers is bound to kill him and avenge Prince Xun!"

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

At the earth-shattering shout, the three thousand soldiers stripped off their armor and revealed their armor that shimmered with spirit patterns, and then drew their blades one after another, starting from the guards in front of the palace gate, and killed them.

There were also the crowd of onlookers, and many people also drew their swords and blended into the 3,000 soldiers.

- They are the dead soldiers cultivated by the Golden Jade Hall.

In the blink of an eye, murderous opportunities broke out, and there was chaos under the palace walls.

The face of King Wei on the palace wall was pale, and the ministers didn't dare to speak for a while.

"King, this place is not suitable for a long time, we will escort you back to the inner hall first!"

As soon as Wang Donglin's words fell, a thick black wolf smoke rose from the gate of Chaoge City in the distance.

"Someone closed the gates!"

I don't know who said a word of peace, and then in an instant, all eyes were focused on Dong Wenyuan.

The court captain who was in charge of the city gates was his man.

Once the city gates were closed, it was no longer possible to rely on the army outside the city to suppress the rebels at this time.

"Are you going to do the opposite?"

The wrinkles on King Wei's face trembled, and he looked at Dong Wenyuan.

Dong Wenyuan didn't say anything, but a person stood up from behind him.

"It's not the opposite, it's just that you took what you robbed and got it back!"

The man came to King Wei, stretched out his hand to remove the disguised skin on his face, and suddenly revealed a face full of stubble.

"Ye Chonglou!"

Someone on the palace wall suddenly exclaimed.
