Chapter 496: The Battle of the Imperial Capital [Fourth Update]

At the same time, the imperial capital, Shuinan City.

After a day of consideration, Huang Yuanwu finally decided to send troops to the imperial capital, thinking that he could not wait any longer.

In any case, it is a fact that he has occupied Shuinan City now, and his father's revenge has to be avenged, and the Northern Wangfu has withdrawn from the battle, no matter what the reason, the matter of the imperial capital now, the Eastern Wangfu must also be resolved.

Huang Yuanwu stood on the wall of Shuinan City, looking at the towering city wall of the imperial capital from a distance, and his heart was full of emotion.

This was once the place he longed for, and he never thought that one day, he would lead his troops and personally break through the gates of the imperial capital.

All this should be understood.

Huang Yuanwu sighed softly, he decided to attack the imperial capital, after breaking through the city gate blade Yang Qin, he will serve the current emperor Huang Yuchen as the king, and after the imperial capital is only stabilized, he will lead the troops of the Eastern Wangfu to return to the palace station. For the throne of praying for heaven, Huang Yuanwu finally wanted to give up, not that he was not tempted by the imperial throne at his fingertips, but after ascending to the throne of the God King, he asked himself that he was likely to be unable to deal with it.

The hidden forces that once attacked the Eastern Wangfu have not appeared until now, and the sudden disappearance of the troops in the Northern Wangfu has shrouded the situation in the imperial capital. Huang Yuanwu was determined to solve the affairs of the imperial capital in the fastest time, and he had many dreams at night.

As for the changes that may occur in this process, it is no longer predictable. Since the forces behind it have the ability to make so many people in the two cities disappear quietly, they have the ability to make them reappear. Now there is no indication that the troops of the Northern Wangfu in the two cities left through the teleportation array, which means that it is very likely that their teleportation was completed through that mysterious black energy that Huang Yuanwu had not seen before. These mysterious and strange things are not something that Huang Yuanwu can predict.

At dawn, Huang Yuanwu's military order had been issued, and Liu Yuan led 50,000 troops outside the city to line up in front of Shuinan City, and the sword pointed directly at the imperial capital in the distance. All the sergeants under Ding Jiang Shuai's command were responsible for the defense of Shuinan City and took over the patrol around the perimeter.

A large number of siege equipment was erected, the soldiers lined up, large push towers, siege vehicles, ladders, large siege crossbow arrows, all available, Liu Yuan was dressed in armor, riding on a war horse, at the forefront of the entire army, just waiting for Huang Yuanwu to order, he immediately began to attack the city.

Everything was ready, Huang Yuanwu came down from the city wall, turned over his war horse, and took his personal guards out of the gate of Shuinan City, entered the center of the army, and came to Liu Yuan's side.

Here, he once again looked up at the walls of the imperial capital in the distance under the early sunset, the pale red walls reflected in the warm and lazy sunlight, looking majestic and solemn. In front of the city gate, a vast flat snowfield, the gate of the imperial capital, has not been opened for a long time.

This is the center of the power of the Prayer Heaven Empire, the imperial capital. How many people think that if you occupy the imperial capital, you have the absolute right to pray for heaven and become an emperor. But Huang Yuanwu stood here, looking at the imperial capital, everything was within reach for him. But he knows it's not that simple.

Huang Zhengchu once stood here, and he also looked at the imperial capital from this direction, and he may even fantasize about what it would be like after he ascended to the throne, all of which began with his ambition and ended with his ambition. The former princes lived a luxurious life of drunkenness and dreams in Shuinan City, and they may not have thought that one day, the emperor would be bloodbathed by a general, and the noble prince of the empire would also become someone else's prisoner. Once upon a time, they may have thought that such a luxurious life would accompany them for a lifetime.

At the beginning of this turmoil, all the power calculations, intrigues, and interests were weighed, and the officialdom in the entire imperial capital circle, the people's livelihood, the princes and nobles, and the children of the family all experienced a catastrophe. The usual calculations, entanglements of interests, the joy of all, hatred. The collusion between the children of the imperial capital family, the relationship of interests, and the ladder of ascent that they regarded as treasures before have all disappeared because of this catastrophe.

I don't know how the residents of the imperial capital feel now, after months of turmoil, since Yang Qin occupied the imperial capital, the gate of the imperial capital has been closed, cutting off all communication with the outside world. Later, Yang Qin promoted the new emperor to ascend the throne, and the gate of the imperial capital was often closed, and no residents were allowed to go out, and only the messengers of the palace appeared. The last time Huang Yuanwu saw him in Shuinan City, it was the inner servant beside the new emperor.

This is a very delicate matter, after the new emperor ascended the throne, everyone did not show obvious opposition, but everyone knows that the emperor who is now promoted by Yang Qin is not the real emperor of Qitian at all. As for why Huang Zhengchu exchanged news with Yang Qin, Huang Yuanwu couldn't figure it out.

But now, none of that matters.

Huang Yuanwu looked in the direction of the imperial capital, and slowly pulled out his sword, and the blade of the sword pointed directly at the imperial capital.

"Attack!"

With Huang Yuanwu's loud order, the camp of the Eastern Palace's mansion immediately began to move, and 20,000 vanguard soldiers slowly advanced in the direction of the imperial capital with a siege machine.

Yes, at this point in time, nothing matters.

Huang Yuanwu made up his mind to break through the imperial capital and avenge the king of the east. The sergeants of the East Wangfu were furious and vowed to break the anti-thief Yang Qin into pieces.

The formation was densely arranged, with the sergeants in the front row holding shields slowly moving forward, and large shields raised high to fend off possible attacks of arrows.

In the formation, Huang Yuanwu also arranged a large number of cultivated sergeants to form a garrison battalion to display the siege formation at a critical moment. This formation is a formation recorded in the Heavenly Prayer Cultivation Method specifically for military combat use, using a large number of sergeants to cooperate with each other and use fighting qi to cause great damage. This method is only used at the most critical moments, and training the garrison requires a lot of time to hone in the cooperation between the sergeants.

The garrison camp before the East Palace, followed the East Palace, all died in the inner city of the imperial capital, and the current garrison camp was established again by Huang Yuanwu later, and the run-in time was still short, and it was not put into use in the battle of the enclave. But now facing the imperial capital, which is also the top priority of the Eastern Palace, Huang Yuanwu used almost all the elite combat power in his hands to fight, intending to take the imperial capital in one fell swoop.

Huang Yuanwu rode on the war horse, looking at the head of the imperial capital in the distance, except for the banner of praying for the sky fluttering in the wind from time to time, he couldn't see anyone.

Such a strange feeling also appeared in the previous attack on Shuinan City.

Huang Yuanwu turned his head to look at Liu Yuan, who was also frowning.

"Imperial Capital...... It doesn't seem to be fortified. Liu Yuan frowned, turned his head and whispered to Huang Yuanwu.

"It's likely that things will be more than we expected. Huang Yuanwu replied softly: "But the matter has come to this, and we only have one way to attack." ”

"Let's see how the vanguard is doing. Liu Yuan said: "Now it is Yang Qin who occupies the imperial capital, once the imperial capital is broken, he has only one way to die." ”

Huang Yuanwu nodded lightly and did not speak again.

During the period when the Dongwang Mansion was stationed near the imperial capital, Yang Qin did not try to communicate with the Dongwang Mansion, but every time he sent a letter, he was rejected by Huang Yuanwu. On a few occasions, Yang Qin even photographed the court's chamberlains to come to deliver the decree, and Huang Yuanwu had never seen it. Between him and Yang Qin, there is nothing to say. No matter what angle he had, it was a fact that Yang Qin killed his father. Even if he didn't kill his father, it would be a heinous capital crime to rebel against the imperial court and sneak attack on the imperial capital to occupy the palace.

Even if the three kings rebelled, Huang Yuanwu had no anger in his heart. Only for Yang Qin, this person will be killed, and there is no love to talk about.

The vanguard army of the Eastern Palace's mansion had advanced to the vicinity of the imperial capital, and looking at the distance, it had already entered the shooting range of the crossbowmen, but until a large number of sergeants had reached the foot of the imperial capital, they had not suffered any attacks, and the city head of the imperial capital really seemed to be empty.

"Boom!"

The rushing car was pushed to the gate of the imperial capital, and with the impact of the rushing car, there was a muffled sound from the gate of the imperial capital, but even if the soldiers of the Eastern Wangfu attacked, the imperial capital did not have any counterattack.

When Huang Yuanwu saw this scene, his brows furrowed, and he said to Liu Yuan on the side: "Lord Liu, you take someone to see what is going on." ”

Liu Yuan nodded, carried his spear, led a team of 100 people, and went straight to the battlefield in the distance.

The appearance of the imperial capital made Huang Yuanwu very worried.

If the sudden disappearance of the army of the Northern Prince's Mansion is because of the hidden forces behind it, and the emperor has no right to influence it, then the incident of non-resistance in the imperial capital is worth pondering.

Yang Qin and Huang Zhengchu are different. Yang Qin relied on the people he had been cultivating and installed to rebel and occupy the imperial capital, and in order to complete this operation, he spent a lot of time, not only his time, but also everyone in the province of Wangqin where he was located. Yang Qin's subordinates were mainly from the Wangqin Province of the Qitian Empire, which was previously an effect, and was later conquered by Qitian and annexed to the Qitian Empire.

Yang Qin occupied the imperial capital and killed the emperor and the king of the east, once the palace of the east was broken, Yang Qin had no chance of survival.

Thinking about it this way, now that the Eastern Wangfu is attacking the imperial capital, Yang Qin will inevitably resist desperately and strive for a glimmer of life. Huang Yuanwu even thought that Yang Qin might use the lives of the entire imperial family and the lives of the people in the imperial capital to force him to withdraw from the army in order to protect himself. But the facts turned out as expected, the sergeants of the Dongwang Mansion had already hit the imperial capital, such a strong city gate and towering city walls, Yang Qin actually did not take advantage of it, this is contrary to common sense.

There was no resistance in the imperial capital but the city gates were closed, and it was likely that there was only one situation. That is, Yang Qin is no longer in the imperial capital, and the gate of the imperial capital is not opened, probably because of the inside of the imperial capital, and now only the people of Li are left, Yang Qin and his subordinates have left the imperial capital by using methods that they don't know.
