Chapter 743: The Beginning of the War

Under careful observation, Wang Yong couldn't help but admire, Iron Mask's concealment skills were getting better and better, Wang Yong's divine sense could clearly see their every move, but with the naked eye, he only saw that the place where they were was a little dim, if he didn't observe and compare carefully, he couldn't see anything abnormal at all. It took less than three minutes from the time Iron Mask and the others walked out of the room to the time they each took their positions and lurked beside their targets.

Through Wang Yong's divine sense, Tie Mian said in a relaxed tone: "Fortunately, there is a boss at this transit station, which saves a lot of trouble, Shadow Dance, Qingling, Shuimu, Tsinghua, and we will do it together when I count to three." After Shadow Dance and the others responded, Iron Mask began to count.

When Iron Mask counted to three, Shadow Dance and the others shot at the same time, and the dagger either plunged into the guard's throat or into the back of the guard's neck, killing without exception without making any sound.

After putting away the guard's body, Wang Yong came to the staircase leading to the first floor, carefully released his divine sense to check, and then told Tie Mian and the others what he saw, and then Tie Mian and the others shot again, and after cleaning up the guards on the first floor, the group came to a corner lightly, and the other end of the corner was the hall on the first floor, which was not far from the gate, and the emperor could be seen from the gap in the heavy infantry behind with the naked eye.

Hiding in the corner, Wang Yong talked and drew a simple map for a while, and then arranged their respective tasks, and all that remained was to wait, waiting for Morgan to take the Praetorian Guards to attack, and then launch a surprise attack in the chaos.

Ten minutes passed, and some nervous people were bored and wiping their weapons against the wall, while the emperor and the eldest prince outside were still chattering.

Both sides are waiting, and the emperor will wait for the person sent to find Morse, the commander of the guards, to reply, and send out to check the changes in the palace guards, to see if there are other ambushes, and at the same time, they are also waiting for reinforcements to be dispatched, and only when the exact answer can the emperor make a decision on whether to kill the eldest prince Glinton. And the eldest prince is just waiting for Zack. That is, I hope that he can bring someone to help, and I hope that he has left the imperial capital, and the mood between contradictions is constantly wandering.

Wang Yong muttered with an extremely depressed laugh: "I knew that these two goods were so grinding, it was better to watch the excitement for a while and then come over." ”

Poked Zack, who was shivering, Wang Yong whispered: "How did your family come from buying fake drugs? Why are you so good at everything?" Zach glared at Wang Yong angrily.

At this moment, the emperor inadvertently saw Morgan hiding in the ordinary guards, and his heart sank, but his face did not show the slightest abnormality, and he began to think about what to do.

Morgan saw the Emperor's piercing eyes sweep over him, although it didn't seem that the Emperor was unnatural. But Morgan felt he had been discovered. Feeling that it had been exposed, Morgan did not hesitate, he knew that the situation would be more and more unfavorable to his side if he waited any longer, and said very decisively: "All the Praetorian Guards obey the order to protect His Highness Greenton, no matter who it is, anyone who dares to approach will be killed." After speaking, after stimulating the fighting spirit, he stepped out of the crowd, strode to Glinton's side, knelt down on one knee and saluted, and said, "I have seen Your Highness." His Highness was frightened. Seeing Morgan coming, Greenton breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, his face full of smiles and gratitude to Glinton.

It happened suddenly. Before the palace guards who were originally closely connected to the Praetorian Guard could react, they were killed by a volley of crossbow arrows from the Praetorian Guards, and the remaining guards fled in a hurry, hiding behind the hoplites guarding the emperor. With a face full of disbelief, he looked at the Janissaries who were turning against each other. The hoplites guarding the emperor quickly shrank their lines under the command of the officers, firmly protecting the emperor in the middle, and glared at the rebels in front of them with fearful faces.

Reversal of form in the field. Emperor Andrew still sat leisurely, his expression undisturbed, as if the things in front of him had nothing to do with him.

One of the leather-armored guards beside the emperor looked at the outnumbered rebels, and suggested with some concern, "Lord, let's get out of here first." ”

Andrew shook his head, stood up and looked at the eldest prince Glinton, who turned from worry to joy, and said coldly: "I won't go, I will kill this rebel with my own hands." After saying that, he waved his hand.

The guards who had just opened their mouths to admonish didn't say much when they heard this, he was very confident in the strength of the four of them, and he felt that with them, they would definitely be able to protect the emperor's thoughtfulness. Seeing that the emperor waved his hand, the guards understood, nodded to the hoplite officers not far away, and signaled to start a counterattack. The so-called counterattack did not mean the two hundred heavy infantry around the emperor, but the three hundred heavy infantry that appeared behind the Praetorian Guard after a muffled sound of horns.

The horn sounded, and the three hundred heavily armed infantrymen who had been hidden poured out one after another, lined up as fast as they could, under the command of the officers, with shields in front, spears in the second, and soldiers in the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth columns, with swords at their waists and crossbows in their hands, and pulled the trigger on the somewhat panicked Praetorian Guards. Two hundred rounds of crossbow arrows were fired in a volley, and the Praetorian Guards, who were caught off guard, suffered a big loss, losing nearly 100 people in a single shot.

Morgan frowned, the appearance of the hoplites already made him feel uneasy, and he didn't expect that there was an ambush behind him.

Morgan has rich combat experience, quickly stabilized his mind, and said to the eldest prince Greenton: "Your Highness be careful, I will lead people to rush over, you stay and wait for His Highness Zach and his masters to come and support." Then he commanded in a loud voice: "Walter and Maas, you lead men to block the enemy behind, and the others will rush with me." After speaking, he commanded a large army to rush straight to the heavy infantry defense line in front of the emperor.

Glynton didn't think that Zack would be able to find any masters, and in order not to let Zack take the risk, Glynton decided to attack with Morgan and try to break the not very strong defense line in front of the emperor in one fell swoop.

Seeing Morgan rushing out with his people, Greenton said to the city defense officers and several so-called masters around him, "Let's rush together." After speaking, regardless of persuasion, he rushed towards the emperor's defense line in the flow of people, gritting his teeth and staring at this person who made him hate, eager to look at the other party's head with a sword.

Morgan and the city defense army combined were almost more than 1,300 people, leaving 300 to resist the enemy behind them, and the remaining 1,000 people rushed over with great momentum, and Andrew couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, but he not only had more than 300 palace guards, but also 200 hoplites with unparalleled combat strength, Andrew was still very confident that he could block the attack of the rebels.
