302 King's Landing
Since the siege of Heluo City, whether it is a dignitary or a peddler, the perception of the Huaizhou army outside the city is very complicated.
In the past two years, the border army of the Southern Qi Dynasty has reported frequent successes in the border war, and the corresponding Yan army has been defeated and retreated, and the people in Heluo City have gradually become a little more anxious from the initial shock to the later numbness.
Until the Huaizhou army came to the city, more than two years of depression turned into fear, and they could only pin all their hopes on Jing Jun.
Beicheng, including the imperial palace, has always been a place where powerful families live, and these people naturally don't want the Qi army to make progress, because once the other party can enter the city, their fate will definitely not be too good.
After all, in the Yuanjia Revolution fifteen years ago, now the magnates in Heluo City have either taken the initiative or been forced to betray the Great Qi court, otherwise they will not be able to continue to enjoy the glory and wealth with the acquiescence of the Jing Dynasty.
In the palatial mansions, countless nobles dressed in silk and satin were panicked.
Until a series of earth-shattering loud noises came, they climbed high in the house and looked around to find the source of the sound.
Then I saw the flying dust rising from the north, and the faint roar.
"What's going on!"
"Send someone to take a look!"
"The master is still in the palace, go to the palace to report the news!"
All kinds of frightened voices sounded in these high-level mansions, and countless miserable faces seemed to have seen the fate of their own heads.
In Nanpingbo's Mansion, which was very close to the northern city, the head of the family, Zhong Chang's vain eyes, were full of fear, because he heard very clearly that those loud noises must be related to the city wall.
He hurriedly gathered a group of family soldiers and cautiously came out of the side door to check the situation, but he had just stepped on the front street, and he couldn't move as if someone had immobilized him.
On the north side of the long street, countless armored soldiers rushed over, and at a glance they knew that the armor on their bodies belonged to the Huaizhou army!
Zhong Chang was stunned, although he was already at home, after all, he had the experience of leading troops, how could he not guess that the enemy army had broken the city.
"It's over...... It's over......"
Seeing that the Huaizhou army's foot soldiers were getting closer and closer, Zhong Chang only felt that his legs were as heavy as a thousand catties and he couldn't step out at all, and the family members behind him were trembling all over.
"The military master spares his life!"
Zhong Chang roared vigorously, and then fell directly to the ground on his knees, and the more than ten family soldiers behind him did the same.
Bao An, the leading lieutenant, swept the gorgeous clothes on Zhong Chang's body with cold eyes, and indifferently spit out two words: "Slaughtered!" β
Several screams rang out, and they were immediately lost in the surging footsteps of the soldiers of the Ruishi Battalion.
Bao An and Su Yunqing ran side by side, and there were a few more men in cloth clothes next to them, they were secret agents placed in Heluo City by the Warp Weaving Division, and they had received Su Yunqing's secret order half a month ago to make detailed preparations for today's battle to break the city.
Under the guidance of these people, Bao An led the soldiers of the Ruishi battalion through the streets like a whirlwind, and pounced on the palace with precision.
"Lord Inspector, Inspector Yin has gathered all of our hands to infiltrate the palace, he personally brought a few masters into the Taiji Palace, and the others are ambushing on the periphery!"
As he ran, a man in his thirties spoke hurriedly.
Su Yunqing asked, "Is there a Jingjun outside the palace?" β
The man immediately replied, "Yes, about a thousand people, stationed not far southwest of the palace!" β
Su Yunqing turned his head to look at Bao An, who nodded understandingly.
Heluo north gate to the palace about four miles of place, the Rui Shi battalion foot soldiers with lightning speed to quickly rush forward, and when they arrived at the north of the imperial city Zhengyang Gate, Mou Lianghu had just left from the east city, more than a thousand Jingjun were rushing to the Guanghua Gate in the south of the palace.
If you look down from above, these two armies of unequal numbers will enter the palace with extremely empty garrison force at the same time, one south and one north, and the target is the Taiji Hall on the central axis.
At this moment, the battle in the hall has reached a white-hot situation.
"Ahh
The privy envoy Pangshigu, covered in blood, slashed to death one of the Praetorian guards who rushed in front of him with the long knife he had snatched, but another man had a wound several inches long in his back, the seventh wound on his body.
In fact, Pang Shigu's martial arts are not weak, and he relied on a sharp sword technique to gain a foothold in the army back then, but it is inevitable that he will be slack in his pampering over the years, and his enemies are too crazy.
The fear of death welled up in his heart, and the sharp pain from the various wounds caused Pang Shigu to stumble forward, when two janissaries appeared behind him, raising their hands to hold his shoulders and kicking his knees.
With a "plop", Pang Shigu, who had no strength to struggle, knelt down in the direction of the dragon chair, his body trembled violently, and shouted in a panic: "Don't kill me-"
Before the words landed, another Praetorian guard clenched a special broadsword in both hands and slashed it with all his strength!
Blood sprayed forward, and Pang Shigu's first-level bones rolled out a few steps away, his round eyes facing Zhang Can's corpse in front of the dragon chair.
Such an explosive scene did not attract the attention of others, because at this moment the vast majority of courtiers were on the verge of death, they couldn't run away if they wanted to, they couldn't stop it, they could only become the ghosts under the swords of the Praetorian Guard.
In the southwest corner, Prime Minister Wang An, whose left arm hung weakly, squatted by the wall, and in front of him were five officials in their thirties and forties, barely building a barrier for him.
Since learning of Lu Shen's plan, Wang An has consciously provoked Zhang Can's anger, and at the same time secretly helped him cover it up. Otherwise, with only Zhang Can and Feng Li, they were plotting big things in this leaky palace, how could they hide from the eyes of the prosecutor's office.
However, Zhang Can didn't know the inside story, so he naturally wouldn't let go of this Zhai Lin Wang family head.
Wang An can do extremely limited, he can only rely on the Wang family's few hole cards in the court to protect himself.
Even though these people are strong in martial arts and loyal, in the current killing that is more ferocious than the battlefield, Wang An has been in danger several times, stabbed in his left hand and right leg, and his official uniform was stained red with blood.
If it weren't for the fact that more than thirty Jinglian clan masters outside the hall rushed in and attracted the attention of most of the guards, Wang An thought to himself that he would die today, and he would definitely not survive with the protection of these people in front of him.
And for these masters of the Jinglian clan, the distance from the gate to the top of the imperial stairs is so long.
They naturally didn't care about the life and death of those ministers of the Yan Kingdom, and just wanted to rush to Qingyu Huaijin as soon as possible, but their opponent was a group of Praetorian Guards who were stimulated by the killing to the point of madness.
If they were to fight alone, these masters were confident that they could easily solve a janitarian guard, but at the moment it was a life-and-death struggle, one side just wanted to break through the obstacles and rush to save people, while the other side held the idea that all the jade and stones would be burned and died together, and the result can be imagined.
From more than thirty zhang to fifteen zhang, twelve Jinglian clan masters were killed in this half of the journey, and although they killed at least thirty guards, everyone was still feeling cold in their hearts.
"Your Highness, retreat!"
Seeing that he couldn't rush over immediately, there was still a steady stream of guards rushing up in front of him, and the leader of the Jinglian clan masters could only shout angrily.
These four words came into Qing Yu Huaijin's ears, and her expression did not change at all.
Two of the guards beside her had already fallen, Xiao Jun had three wounds on his body, and only eight of the more than twenty guards on the opposite side could still stand.
As far as the eye can see, the hall is already a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and one henchman after another has fallen in a pool of blood.
Seeing this situation, Qing Yu Huaijin only felt a violent aura surging in his heart, and immediately let out a light reprimand, and stepped towards Yin Shangfu in front of him, like a lightning bolt coming in an instant.
The long knife came from top to bottom, bringing a thunderous sound of wind and thunder.
Yin Shangfu didn't dare to block hard, and twisted his body to the side.
Qing Yu Huaijin pointed his knife to the ground, took advantage of the situation, and raised his leg to kick Yin Shangfu.
If this kick is kicked solidly, it will be seriously injured if he doesn't die, Yin Shangfu raised his knife to block it when he couldn't make a move, and the terrifying power instantly shook his tiger mouth, and he took a few steps back.
Qing Yu Huaijin took advantage of the situation to move forward, no longer had the slightest reservation, and the internal strength of his body gushed out, and the sword light was like a shocking thought, and he slashed three people in a blink of an eye.
The blood on her face faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Xiao Jun next to her was shocked, His Royal Highness the County Lord This is using the method of burning himself to kill a bloody path!
"Let's go!"
Qingyu Huaijin didn't have any nonsense, and rushed into the crowd with Xiao Jun and others, but seeing her green silk scattered and sweaty sideburns, her face became whiter and whiter, and the long knife in her hand became more and more ruthless, tearing out a gap and converging with the Jinglian clan masters who came to the rescue.
Less than thirty people, led by Qing Yu Huaijin who fell into a state of rage, finally rushed to the front door of the Taiji Palace.
At this moment, the sound of killing outside suddenly became loud!
Qing Yu Huaijin was the first to rush out of the Taiji Palace, and the figure of Sergeant Jing appeared at the edge of the square in the distance, and she immediately took her subordinates who could still move to the front to converge.
As long as she entered the Jingjun Array, neither the Zhang family's dead nor the Nanqi masters who suddenly appeared in the Taiji Hall could pose a threat to her.
At a distance of more than fifty zhang, the two sides approached quickly, and the generals of the Jing army naturally saw Qing Yu Huaijin's figure, but before he could greet him with great joy, his face changed suddenly.
Behind the Taiji Palace, countless Huaizhou army foot soldiers rushed around from both sides!
The general of the Jing army only glanced at it and concluded that the enemy's strength was far above him, and he couldn't help but be shocked at this moment.
Bao An and Su Yunqing could naturally see Jing Jun in the south, as well as a group of people who were approaching Jing Jun.
On the square, Qing Yu Huaijin held a knife in one hand and ran forward quickly.
A lot of thoughts flashed in the hearts of the generals of the Jing army in an instant, and finally turned into a resolute one: "Your Highness quickly retreat, the last general will lead the troops to block the enemy!" β
The two gradually approached, and Qing Yu Huaijin said, "What's your name?" β
"The last general, Pu Cha Jingcai, is now a thousand-commander!"
"I made a note of it!"
Qingyu Huaijin is not that kind of hypocritical character after all, the only thing she can do is to remember this person, and then confirm the identity of more than 1,000 soldiers through him, and give their families a territory in the future, in order to repay them for sacrificing their lives to save them today.
The wind was howling, and there was a continuous and extremely tragic fighting sound behind her, Qing Yu Huaijin never looked back, her lips were pursed, and her face was cold.
A moment later, the Guanghua Gate was already in sight.
For Qing Yu Huaijin and the only remaining twenty or so relatives around her, the four-zhang-long doorway seemed to be extremely far away.
Finally rushed out of the door, and the light returned.
Qing Yu Huaijin gasped with difficulty, in order to get rid of the entanglement of those Southern Qi masters, in order to kill those crazy Zhang family dead, she almost exhausted all the internal strength in her body.
"Your Highnessβ"
Xiao Jun approached worriedly, but before he could say the next words, Qing Yu Huaijin suddenly looked up and looked ahead, his eyes as sharp as knives.
Thousands of horses cirrus cloud gang, the sound of horses' hooves thundering.
The torrent overflowed the royal street, blocking Qingyu Huaijin and her relatives outside the Guanghua Gate.
This is an extremely elite Southern Qi cavalry, which is not inferior to Qing Yugong's personal guard battalion.
More than 3,000 horsemen filled the royal street, and the exhausted Jing Dynasty magnates were like caged birds, unable to escape.
In the crowd, Lu Shen rode his horse and slowly took a few steps, looking at the young woman who was in a desperate situation not far away.
Inside the palace are thousands of elite foot soldiers, and outside the palace are Huanghuang iron horses, and the situation is clear at a glance.
Qing Yu Huaijin looked at the young man on the other side who had crossed thousands of mountains and rivers to kill Heluo, destroying all obstacles that appeared in front of her.
The room was silent and solemn.
She slowly gripped the hilt of her knife and laughed to herself.
Then forward, forward, alone.
"Your Highness!"
Xiao Jun and the others shouted in horror and panic.
Qingyu Huaijin didn't seem to hear it, there was only Lu Shen in her eyes, she rushed quickly across the distance that was not too far, and then urged the only strength in her body to pour into her arms.
More than 3,000 horsemen of the Ruishi battalion watched silently, and no one stepped forward to stop them before receiving a clear order.
Qing Yu Huaijin knew that her moves were not very powerful, but she did not hesitate at all, her eyes were full of resolute determination, and she stubbornly rushed in front of Lu Shen.
Leaping!
Raise the knife!
Why not!
