Chapter 287: I Don't Mind a Mad Dog Barking

In the past, only those who had been excluded from within the Guards would be transferred to other cities as city guards.

is like the sacrificial Lin Guodong, he was demoted to Yunhai City because he offended his superiors.

But at this moment, many soldiers want to take the initiative to transfer away from the Guards, and would rather be demoted than go to Yunhai City to become soldiers...

"I heard that Yunhai City is no worse than Imperial Capital City. The soldier said again.

The other soldier was also really moved, "Not only is it not worse than the Imperial Capital City, but it is even much stronger, I heard that the people, soldiers, and officials of Yunhai City are close to each other, and it is the richest place on the mainland." ”

"Well..."

When An Lushan and Ji Ri Galang confirmed that there was no more alive in the field, they counted the team and returned from the west of the city to help the city guards of the ninth uncle.

-------

The north gate of the imperial capital city and the imperial palace.

The north gate was about the same as the south, and there were also 2,000 black-clad soldiers stationed there.

The guards attacking the north gate were also like those on the south side, with numerous casualties.

If someone could stand on the top of the palace now, they would see that the upper and lower sides were covered with blood, and it was very bloody.

The general who commanded the Northern Guards was a young man named Jiang Tong, only thirty-one years old, and as for why he was able to command an army of 30,000 at such a young age, it was because he had an uncle named Zhang Zhong.

At this time, Jiang Tong was terrified, he had never seen such a bloody killing.

Prior to this, Jiang Tong only wanted to encounter sporadic resistance from Ouchi's guards, but he didn't expect that the Black Armor Legion with 2,000 people was firmly guarding the north gate, killing thousands of people in an instant.

These two thousand black-armored soldiers are like demons coming out of hell, with swords in their hands, without any mercy or mercy, only ruthlessness and indifference.

"General, what should we do now?" an adjutant asked Xiang Jiangtong.

"I..." Jiang Tong didn't know what to say, this was the first time he had participated in a battle, and he had already been confused.

The adjutant looked at Jiang Tong's confused and slightly green face, and felt very helpless, but after all, he was the general of the Northern Guard, and he had to give any orders.

The adjutant had some combat experience, and after thinking about it, he suggested: "It's better to wait for the southern palace gate to be broken first, these black-armored soldiers will definitely retreat to help, and then we will join forces with the southern army, right?"

Jiang Tong seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, nodded and said: "You are right, we will stalemate with them, and when the city gate in the south breaks through, we should join forces inside and outside, but there are 60,000 troops in the south!"

The adjutant looked at Jiang Tong and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The generals of the Imperial Legion are all people like Jiang Tong, no wonder they always lose battles." ’

South Palace Gate.

At this time, the front army hesitated, neither continued to advance, nor dared to retreat.

The prince hated in his heart, "General Zhang, where is General Pang Hai?

Zhang Zhong looked embarrassed, what he wanted to tell the prince about this was before, but there were many people around him, and he didn't say it, and he wanted to wait until he captured the palace, but now he can't say it.

"Prince, General Pang Hai did not come, and the envoy we sent out yesterday did not come back. ”

"How so!" the prince was shocked, "Didn't he already arrive at the city gate yesterday?"

"This old minister doesn't know either. Zhang Zhong was also puzzled, Pang Hai was indeed stationed outside the city with an army of 150,000, and the spies had already seen it.

But now it's almost noon, and there is no movement at all, not even the envoys sent out.

"No matter what!" exclaimed the prince, "no matter how strong they are, there are only 2,000 men, but we are 60,000 troops, this prince orders you, the whole army presses, no matter everything, you must break through the palace gate!

Zhang Zhong's expression was entangled, he looked around at the surrounding guards, at this time, these soldiers all had a look of fear on their faces, obviously they had lost their sharpness, can such an army still fight?

"General Zhang, what are you doing? Don't give the order to attack yet!" the crown prince frowned, his eyes showing angry flames.

Zhang Zhong sighed, he never expected that tens of thousands of troops would be stopped in front of the palace by 2,000 people.

He raised his hand, "The whole army obeys..."

"Wait!"

Just as he was about to give the order to attack, a shout suddenly came from in front of the palace gate.

All of a sudden, everyone looked at the gate in confusion.

I saw that the black-armored soldiers in front of the palace made way of a road, and a man wrapped in silver armor was slowly walking out.

At the same time, he also held something similar to an edict in his hand.

Under the illumination of the sun, the silver armor glows with an incomparably brilliant luster, which makes people think that they are the god of war descending from the sky!

The prince's eyes narrowed, and he looked coldly at the silver-armored general who came out, "Who are you?"

The silver-armored man walked up to the black-armored soldier and stopped, then took off his helmet and shook his hair.

"Qi Tian! is it?" exclaimed the prince, "Aren't you supposed to be in prison!"

He looked at Zhang Zhong beside him again, and the blame in his eyes was very strong.

Zhang Zhong was embarrassed and silent again, he didn't tell the prince the news of Qi Tian's escape that day.

He felt that there was no need, because Qi Tian was only one person, and he did not have any troops in the imperial capital, so it was impossible to cause any trouble to the prince's uprising.

But right now, Qi Tian didn't know where to conjure so many black-armored soldiers with amazing combat effectiveness out of thin air, intercepting the prince's tens of thousands of troops outside the palace gate, which he could never have imagined anyway.

Qi Tian smiled slightly, "It's me!"

"Are these soldiers yours?" the prince looked at the black-armored soldiers.

Qi Tian nodded, "That's right, they are all the city guards of Yunhai City, but their armor has been improved by me." ”

The prince's eyes shot a resentful light, "It's really a toast and don't eat and drink! Today is your death!"

After hearing this, Qi Tian laughed "haha", as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world!

"What are you laughing at?" the prince asked in a cold voice.

It took Qi Tian a long time to stop laughing, "I laugh... It's because a thief actually threatened to kill a dignified protector general!"

Suddenly, there was an uproar!

Qi Tian slowly picked up the edict in his hand and slowly unfolded it, "The emperor's edict said, appoint Qi Tian as the general of the protector, mobilize all the troops and officials in the empire, and quickly quell the prince's rebellion, Qin this!"

These words exploded like a thunderclap among all the officers and soldiers.

"What, the prince actually raised an army to rebel?"

"Isn't the crown prince on the side of the Qing monarch? How did it turn into a rebellion?"

The soldiers looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you.

Although they acted according to the orders of the crown prince, the prince was not an emperor after all, they were the army of the empire, and they only listened to the emperor.

And those civil officials and facial features, although they have long known what the prince's uprising is about, their faces are still very unnatural when they say it at this time.

The crown prince, who was riding on the big white horse, suddenly became extremely hideous, and roared: "You are talking nonsense! This prince came to Qingjun's side today on the orders of his father! How could my father put down his son!"

Zhang Zhong also felt that something was wrong, and immediately pointed at Qi Tian and scolded: "This edict is fake, Qi Tian! You dare to forge the emperor's edict, the whole army obeys the order, and immediately kills him!"

But before the army could move, Qi Tian took out a bronze medal from his arms and said lightly: "Lord Zhang, have you seen this?"

This bronze medal, shining with a dim yellow sheen in the sunlight, is the imperial token given to him by Princess Celestia.

Zhang Zhong could see the emperor token in Qi Tian's hand at a glance, because he had seen this token, and even kept it for the emperor for a while, but...

But did the emperor really let Qi Tian come to quell the rebellion against the crown prince?

Daddy wants to kill his own son?

The prince's expression became more and more gloomy and solemn.

Qi Tian saw the expressions of the crown prince and Zhang Zhong in his eyes, and smiled slightly, "Why, you don't even know the emperor token?"

He suddenly shouted in a deep voice: "Seeing the emperor's token is like seeing the emperor, don't you still kneel down and listen to the order?"

"No! never, my father will never kill me!" the prince suddenly roared like madness.

Why did he revolt?

It's not because he suspects that his father is better to his eldest sister than to himself.

But now that his father actually ordered him to be killed, all of a sudden, grievances, unwillingness, anger and other emotions burst out at the same time!

Zhang Zhong looked around, knowing that he must not hesitate any longer at this time, he must make a desperate bet, otherwise it will be completely over.

"The emperor token in Qi Tian's hand was stolen from the emperor! The emperor didn't know at all, all the soldiers listened to my order, all of them attacked, and killed Qi Tian!"

He almost roared, hoping that his voice would scare the soldiers around him.

But to everyone's surprise, the soldiers of the front army did not raise their weapons, but looked at him in a complicated way.

"We are soldiers of the empire, not soldiers of the crown prince, and even less soldiers of your Lord Zhang!"

"You are doing this to rebel, to rebel with our lives!"

"We should listen to the emperor's orders and suppress the prince's rebellion!"

At this time, dozens of soldiers of the front army shouted one after another.

"That's right! We are loyal to the empire and the emperor, how can we listen to a judge!"

"If my life is paid for the rebellion, I will not only raid the family, but also destroy the nine clans!"

They were originally like ducks on the shelves, and they were watched by the prison army to go to the battlefield, but when they saw that there was a turnaround, they immediately echoed it.

Suddenly, the entire front army was gone.

They all turned their bodies and aimed their cold weapons at Zhang Zhong behind them.

And some soldiers in the middle and rear army began to shout dissatisfied.

Of course, the soldiers who shouted at the beginning were the soldiers brought by Gu Zhengang, and they were mixed in the team, waiting for this time.

These people were Qi Tian and Gu Zhengang's Qimen Legion arranged in the Guards, so that when the Guards were afraid, they would take advantage of the situation to shake the hearts of the army.

Most of the soldiers who later spoke out were afraid of the black-armored soldiers and were unwilling to fight the black-armored soldiers anymore.

In front of the black-armored soldiers in a neat array, they could only be beaten passively.

The crown prince and Zhang Zhong were shocked, and they looked around at the surrounding army, "Do you want to rebel?"

Gu Zhengang jumped out at this time and shouted: "Is it our rebellion or your rebellion! Do you have an imperial edict for your uprising? Do you have an imperial token?"

The soldiers under him immediately shouted, "Yes, do you have the Imperial Edict and the Imperial Token!"

Qi Tian smiled and looked at the guards who were about to fall apart, this is what he wanted.

In fact, he had been waiting inside the palace gate just now, he just wanted the guards to die some people first, and aroused the fear in the hearts of the guards.

When the guards were no longer afraid to come forward, he came out again.

The Guards were in a panic and would definitely be on their side, because once they spoke for themselves, it meant that they would not have to deal with these well-trained Qimen legions.

If Qi Tian appeared with the edict and the imperial token at the beginning, then the effect would be greatly reduced, and even the prince or Zhang Zhong would let the guards continue to attack the palace gate with a few words.

After all, everyone knows a truth, only the emperor's token is the emperor's token, only the emperor's edict is the will of the court, if the prince can really occupy the palace, control the emperor, and kill the eldest princess, then the prince is the real emperor.

At this time, the 60,000-strong army was in chaos in an instant.

The crown prince and Zhang Zhong felt like they were galloping through countless grass and mud horses, they never imagined that the uprising, which was originally ready for everything, could just stop abruptly when they arrived at the gate of the palace!

The Chinese and rear armies also began to panic.

Qi Tian shouted at this time: "General Ben Huguo was ordered to exterminate the prince's rebels, but you are confused by the prince and Zhang Zhong, so you are not to blame in the past, if you lay down your arms, this general will forgive you for your innocence, otherwise you will be killed." ”

At this time, the black-armored soldiers seemed to want to give Qi Tian's words some momentum, and shouted in unison, "Whew!"

The guards gradually quieted down, looked at each other a few times, and the soldiers scattered in the front, middle and rear teams led by Gu Zhengang began to take the lead in laying down their weapons and looking like they had surrendered.

The rest of the soldiers, seeing someone taking the lead, glanced at the black-armored soldiers not far away, and also put down their weapons.

The entire army of more than 50,000 people was quickly disarmed.

"I surrendered, I was bewitched by the crown prince and Zhang Zhong to follow them!"

"Me too, I'm still loyal to the emperor and the eldest princess!"

Dozens of civil officials immediately raised their hands, left the prince's side, and walked to the bottom of the palace steps.

Qi Tian smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood their previous "naivety".

At this time, those who were still standing beside the prince were Zhang Zhong and the dozen or so martial arts masters.

"Gu Zhengang listened to the order!" Qi Tian suddenly shouted.

Gu Zhengang stopped, turned around and ran to the steps of the palace gate, knelt down on one knee and said, "The last general!"

"General Ben now promotes you to the vanguard general of the Guards, lead all the guards at the south gate, and quickly inform the guards at the north gate of the palace to surrender quickly, and if you don't obey the order, you will be beheaded on the spot!" Qi Tian shouted.

"Order!" Gu Zhengang clenched his fists, then turned around and called a few commanders, gathered his troops and immediately rushed towards the north gate.

At this time, Qi Tian had two thousand Qimen legions behind him, and he slowly walked towards the crown prince.
