Chapter 1296: The Crisis of the Palace
"Qingmo Villa, is there any secret?" Tai Shi Hansheng continued to ask.
"In the past eight years, most of the confidential content about our theft of the imperial court has been hidden there, and since we captured Qingmo Villa, we have temporarily used it as a warehouse stronghold...... Zuo Ziyou continued, "There have been disciples of Qingmo Villa who went back to steal documents, so I wondered if it was the disciples of Qingmo Villa who killed the 'Hui Horse Gun'...... Unexpectedly, there were other people who took the opportunity to capture Qingmo Villa......"
"Forget it, paper can't hold the fire, I'm afraid these secrets will be made public one day......" Taishi Hansheng didn't care, "Anyway, now that the King of Chatai and Chatai Dordun are dead, and the two pillars of the Chatai family have fallen, even if those secrets are made public, they can't stop the revenge plan for the teacher...... What we need to do now is the key to the future - to find the whereabouts of Chataiyun, which is the first thing we need to consider......"
"Boom...... Boom......" However, during the discussion, another footstep sounded outside the door.
"Someone is here, it should be someone from the palace-" Taishi Hansheng immediately reminded.
When Zuo Ziyou heard this, he immediately showed a nervous face, pulled up the disciple who was kneeling on the ground, and turned around and hid behind the door with him. After all, he is a member of the "Canghuan Sect", and if the people in the palace find out, things may not be good.
"Bang bang ......" Soon, there was a knock on the door outside the house.
"Come in—" Taishi Hansheng also responded casually.
"Oh no, senior......" The person who came was indeed a descendant of the palace, and I saw that he had an anxious face, as if he had something important to report.
"What's the matter, what's the matter of panicking?" Tai Shi Hansheng pretended to be calm, and replied while glancing at Zuo Ziyou and the two who were hiding behind the door.
"Outside the palace, the men and horses of the ...... 'Ming Fu Sect' have been gathered-" The subordinate continued to report urgently, "Now that the palace is restless, and the royal troops at the city tower are all armed and on alert, I am afraid that a big war is about to break out——"
"I know, I'll rush to the city gate in a while, you go down first......" Taishi Hansheng was still unhurried, and slowly persuaded him to retreat.
Immediately, the subordinate turned around and left Taishi Hansheng's house......
Zuo Ziyu heard that the subordinate had left for a long time, so he closed the door again and appeared from behind the door with the disciples. The disciple was a little panting and kneeling, afraid that Zuo Ziyou had covered his mouth just now, and he couldn't breathe and speak.
"Okay, it's none of your business here, you can go back first......" Zuo Ziyu ordered the disciples in a cold voice, "There are many people in the palace, and it's good that people from our sect rarely appear here......"
"Yes, young lady......" the cultist answered, and tiptoed away......
"I heard that person just said that the troops of the 'Mingfu Sect' are coming...... Zuo Ziyou weighed it a few times, and said, "This He Xunyi really has 'ability', as soon as the king of Chatai died, the war collapsed, and the flames of war actually burned here......
"It seems that we were in a bit of trouble before we found Cha Taiyun...... "Tai Shi Hansheng said slightly.
"The 'Ming Fu Sect' is coming, it is the Chatai Royal Mansion that is in trouble, what does it have to do with you, Master?" Zuo Ziyou didn't understand, got up and asked.
"You don't understand, before completing the revenge plan, the division will use this as a base to prepare something...... Taishi Hansheng said coldly, "The people of the royal palace will come to inform me, because five years ago I suppressed the 'Ming Fu Sect' gang of thugs - now the tide is rising, these guys are far more offensive than five years ago, and the people of the Chatai Royal Mansion are still pinning their hopes on me to quell the ......chaos like five years ago."
"Then Master, are you going to the Wangfu City Tower now?" Zuo Ziyou continued to ask.
"That's right......" Tai Shi Hansheng sat up from the bed and said Zhenzhen, "I can't let the people of the 'Mingfu Sect' ruin the plan of being a teacher, I want to see for myself, how much ability this He Xunyi has......"
"Then I'll go with you, Master—" Zuo Ziyou pleaded.
"No, Ziyou, it's too risky for you to go...... Taishi Hansheng immediately refused, "If I'm not mistaken, Chatai Kortai should be stationed on the edge of the city tower to defend against the enemy now, if you go, aren't you afraid of seeing him?"
"Hmph, why should I be afraid of him? The death of his father and brother has nothing to do with me, it is his own decision to make a 'ruthless move'......" Zuo Ziyou smiled coldly, "Besides, I just want to go and see the actions of the 'Ming Fu Sect', try to hide myself as low-key as possible, and not let Chatai Kortai find out about my ......"
"Then it's up to you, it's daytime, you have to be careful with your every move in the palace......" Taishi Hansheng reminded him one last time, and then left the house and went to the palace tower.
"Hmph, Cha Taiyun, the Lai Yun Dart Bureau was destroyed, even your family suffered this time, I see how long you have to hide......" Intent on finding Sun Yun's whereabouts, but not wanting this to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Zuo Ziyou pulled up the head robe of his clothes, and couldn't help but smile secretly......
At this moment, outside the palace tower, the "Ming Fujiao" has been assembled heavy troops, trying to launch an invasion and attack on the Chatai Wangfu - in fact, since the death of the Chatai King, the war seems to be a one-sided situation, the forbidden army of the imperial court is more and more defeated, and the "Ming Fujiao" is very rampant, not only encroaching on the west of the city, but now actually aiming at the Chatai Palace, according to this speed, I am afraid that within a month, the entire capital will fall.
On the side of the Chatai Palace, it is natural to gather heavy troops to defend the city tower, and Chatai Kortai is even more personally in charge, commanding the imperial forbidden army, and wants to fight to the death with the "Mingfu Sect" fanatics. Now that his father has died, and his brother Dorton has also been killed by his own hands, all the power of the Chatai family is in his own hands, and he can be said to have achieved everything he wants. But before that, we must first block the offensive of the "Ming Fu Sect", and the life and death of the Chatai family are all in our own hands......
"The archers are on standby, and the troops downstairs will guard the city gate for me!" Chatai Kortai hissed with a serious expression on his face, "The cavalry is assembled behind the city, ready to go out of the city at any time to meet the battle-"
Not to mention, although Chatai Kortai is not right in his heart on weekdays, when it comes to the life and death of the family, he is still very tenacious and calm. When his father led the troops to the expedition before his death, he did not have a stand-in to go, and now that the enemy is currently fighting for life and death, Chatai Kortai has finally rejected the bloody nature of some Chatai families......
"Brother-" However, just as the soldiers were approaching the city, Chatai Kortai's sister Chatai Lado ran up to the city tower alone, looking anxious.
When he saw this, he immediately stepped forward and reprimanded, "What are you doing here? This is not the place where girls should come——
"Brother, I'm worried about you......" Chadai Lado was naturally worried about his brother's safety, and cried out.
"Alright, war is about to start here, go back to your house and take refuge, don't come out—" Chatai Kortai continued to remind.
"But brother, I'm afraid ......" A girl is a girl after all, and when she encounters a war, she can't help it.
"Obedient, this is an order!" the situation was urgent, and Chatai Kortai said with a final rebuke......
"Mengyuan is destroyed, the king of Han is revived, for the heavens, kill all the Yidi!" "Mengyuan is destroyed, the Han king is revived, for the heavens, kill all the Yidi......" The slogan of the "Mingfu Sect" army continues to sound under the city tower, and the enemy is currently facing each other, and the Chatai Wangfu has reached the key to life and death......
After the "whole army on alert ——" broke up his sister, Chatai Kortai immediately came to his senses and ordered the three armies to make arrangements and be ready to fight to the death with the enemy at any time......
"Caught up with the ......" However, at this time, Taishi Hansheng also happened to come to the city tower, looking at the siege posture set up by the "Mingfu Sect" downstairs, but He Xunyi was nowhere to be seen, Taishi Hansheng couldn't help but smile secretly, "Hmph, He Xunyi didn't come, it seems that he underestimated the garrison of the Chatai Palace, and he thinks that he can take this place if he doesn't come......"
At the same moment, Zuo Ziyou had already performed light skills and jumped to the roof in the middle of the city tower, lying on the side of the eaves to disguise himself as much as possible, so as not to be discovered by others, but he was full of curiosity and wanted to see the trend of this battle......
"Mengyuan is destroyed, the king of Han is revived, for the heavens, kill all Yidi!" "Mengyuan is destroyed, the king of Han is revived, for the heavens, kill all Yidi......" The believers downstairs were still shouting, and their sound shook the sky, as if the trend of Mengyuan's destruction was determined by the destiny of heaven.
And Chatai Kortai saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but secretly resentful: "Damn, these 'Mingfu Sect' guys are really rampant...... Not long after my father died, they actually hit the palace here, if the palace fell, wouldn't all my previous efforts be in vain? No, even if I fought to the death, I had to defend the palace-"
Immediately, Chatai Kortai personally inspected the defending troops in armor, from one side of the tower to the other. And the soldiers defending the city were also full of fighting spirit, all of them showed their tense faces, and vowed to live and die with the palace......
In front of the gate of the "Attack ——" city road, the leader of the former army of the "Ming Fu Sect" shouted an order, and the "red-clothed cultists" who overlooked the vast number of people put on an offensive posture, and the bows and crossbows were facing each other on their backs, as if they were going to unsheath and kill the enemy in the next moment.
"The archers are ready to ——" Chatai Kortai did not dare to slack off, and also ordered his soldiers to prepare themselves against the enemy - to move thousands of troops at once, and the battle for the life and death of the Chatai family was about to break out......
The two sides of "release ——" and "release ——" ordered almost at the same time, and suddenly the arrow rain flew in the air, and the dense arrows and crossbows were staggered and killed, and there was a bloody storm in front of the palace.
"Ahh......h However, the "Ming Fujiao" seemed to occupy the initiative in the war, and with a slight gap in strength, the long-range arrow surprise attack was even better.
Sure enough, on the top of the city tower, the casualties of the Mengyuan soldiers were even more serious, although they were the personal troops of the emperor's relatives, but most of them were imperial troops who had no experience in fighting in other places, and they lacked experience in battle, even if they occupied a high-risk terrain to defend the city, they were still at a disadvantage for a long time......
——Seeing that the "rain of arrows" offensive had the upper hand, the leader of the "Ming Fujiao" immediately ordered the cloud ladder troops in the front row of the phalanx to assault the city.
"Killing ——" these armed forces gathered among the people, as if they were brave in battle, raised the ladder one after another, and launched a fierce attack on the tower of the Chatai Palace.
"Overthrow the ladder for me, don't let them attack the tower——" Chatai Kortai is still commanding here, but he has no actual combat experience, looking at the "rain of arrows" in the sky is still flying, he doesn't dare to take a step forward, for fear of falling down from the heavy attack.
"Ahh......h
Fortunately, in terms of the imperial court troops, they occupy a unique terrain, not only the city tower is quite high and insurmountable, the width of the city wall is also very limited, and the "Ming Fujiao" wants to attack the city with a cloud ladder, only a few limited stands in front of it, which also gives the troops of the Chatai Wangfu a simpler opportunity to resist the enemy......
"One, two...... Three-""One, two...... Three-", on the top of the city tower, the Mengyuan soldiers who were still stubbornly resisting the enemy were pushing the ladder set up by the enemy in one go, and as the ladder was pried over and fell one by one, the attack of the "Ming Fujiao" was also slightly blocked......
"Huh-" At the critical moment, a long sleeve of a green coat hit with the wind, and it was pushed to several cloud ladders in the front row - a closer look, it was Taishi Hansheng who personally took action, and the crisis helped the Mengyuan army to garrison the city tower.
"It's Taishi's seniors-" Chatai Kortai saw it, excitedly lowered his head and ran to the side, and shouted at Taishi Hansheng, "Thank you Taishi seniors for coming to help, juniors are grateful!"
"I don't have time to praise the old man now...... Taishi Hansheng shook his head and said with a serious face, "You immediately organize all the soldiers and horses above the city tower, give up the bow and arrow to resist the enemy, and help the army defend the ladder, and never let the enemy climb over the city wall!"
"Okay—" Chatai Kortai agreed, wanting to turn around and order.
"Wait a minute, there will be ......" However, Taishi Hansheng didn't seem to finish speaking, finished the enemy's ladder, and continued to say calmly, "At the city gate below the city tower, order the troops and even the cavalry to guard the city gate, and don't let the enemy break through the gate!"
"I see, leave it to me—" Chatai Kortai snapped, and turned his head and ordered the enemy's troops to go......
At this time, under the city tower, this time the attack of the "Ming Fu Sect" was blocked......
"Boss, the defense of these guys is too tenacious, we will attack with a cloud ladder, and we can't go up at all......" The disciples on the side looked at the scorching battle and couldn't help but raise their voices.
"If you can't rush up, you have to charge me, and the bow and crossbow cover can't be stopped—" the leader calmly ordered, "It's just a garrison of the palace, if we can't even take this pass, what face do we have to go back to see the sect leader?"
"But the sect leader is not here, and the number of troops we have here is limited, so if we can't take it for a long time......," the sect leader continued to worry about it.
"Bastard, is this what you should say as a disciple of the 'Mingfu Sect'?!——" After hearing this, the leader slapped him directly up......
