Chapter 313 Battle of the North Gate of the Imperial Capital [2]
Soon, the city gate opened, and five thousand heavy knights rushed out of the north gate and headed towards the enemy.
Thirty meters behind them, ten thousand imperial guards were waiting for battle.
The enemy general did not expect that the defensive army in the city would dare to come out to meet the enemy. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately issued an order to attack.
For a moment, the sound of killing outside the city gate of the north gate of the imperial capital was shaking the sky, and the dust flew high.
The heavy-armed knights on both sides rushed up toward the opponent's camp on wildebeests.
Soon, the heavy knights of both sides collided.
At this time, the 30,000 imperial guards behind the enemy also rushed over with loud shouts.
The enemy soldiers were extremely brave one by one. The five thousand heavy knights who rushed out of the north gate were soon defeated. They turned their horses and retreated quickly towards the city gate.
However, at this time, the 10,000 imperial guards who rushed out of the city were also fleeing into the city in panic.
The heavy-armed knights who fled back to the city gate were blocked by some imperial guards and could not rush into the city gate. For a moment, the city gate was in chaos.
"Kill~!!"
Seeing such a chaotic scene at the city gate, the enemy heavy knights rushed up one by one with all their might and shouted. The 30,000 imperial guards behind them also shouted loudly and rushed into the city gate.
When the enemy heavy knights were about to rush to the city gate, the heavy knights who fled into the city finally rushed into the city, but the ten thousand imperial guards were still running into the city desperately.
At this time, it was too late to quickly close the heavy city gate, because the enemy vanguard troops had already rushed in.
"ah!!"
The enemy heavy knights shouted loudly and followed the imperial guards who fled into the city and rushed into the north gate. The defending soldiers at the top of the city seemed to be frightened at this time, and they didn't even know how to shoot arrows to block the enemy.
Only sparse arrows fell weakly from the city.
In addition to slightly delaying the enemy's rushing into the city, such an attack has no lethality at all against the heavy knights and the imperial guards who have reached the city gate.
"Kill!!"
In the distance, the main general of the enemy rear army rushed in as the vanguard, with heavy knights and the imperial guards, broke through the city gate, and they were all overjoyed and shouted that they would not die and rushed towards the north gate of the imperial capital.
They were not prepared to attack before, but the attack was still a little later.
Seeing that the enemy heavy knights and 30,000 imperial guards had all rushed into the north gate, but the main force of the enemy behind was still twenty meters away from the greatly open city gate.
Finally, the main force of the enemy army had rushed to the city gate and prepared to attack the city.
At this moment, countless rocks on the top of the city fell down crazily, and the rain of arrows shot towards the main force of the enemy who rushed to the city gate.
I never expected that this situation would happen suddenly. The main force of the enemy was shot and was completely unprepared. They turned around and retreated from behind in a hurry.
But the city gate slowly closed at this time.
The five thousand heavy-equipped knights who rushed into the city soon discovered an abnormality.
The heavy-armed knights who had escaped in front of them didn't know where to go, and the panicked guards who were chased by them were desperately hiking into the alleys on both sides.
Time disappeared without a trace.
"Not good, I've been trapped!!"
The general of the enemy's heavy knights had just reacted and heard a shout.
On the surrounding buildings, there were densely packed soldiers facing them with bows and arrows. Not far ahead, there were crisscrossing lines.
The 30,000 imperial guards and the 5,000 heavy-armed knights who rushed into the city were stunned at this time.
They knew they had fallen into the trap.
"You only have one way to go now, and that is surrender!!"
Just when they were panicked, Liu Jinglong appeared in front of them in a golden dragon robe above the city.
After glanced at the panicked guards and heavy knights, Liu Jinglong shouted: "Originally you were the guards of the Northern Gate of the Imperial Capital. Because your general rebelled, you had to follow them to make mistakes. I don't want to blame him.
If you surrender, you will be free from all previous mistakes!!”
"You want us to surrender?! Don't think about it!!"
A strong man dressed in a general in front of the heavy-armed knight looked at Liu Jinglong and shouted loudly.
"act recklessly!!"
Ye Xiang snorted coldly and jumped directly from the city. In the blink of an eye, he had already reached the head of the heavy-armed knight general.
"snort!"
The heavy-armed knight general snorted angrily and stabbed Ye Xiang quickly.
It seemed that he did not see the spear that was stabbing rapidly. Ye Xiang had a red light on the Canghai treasure sword in his hand and slashed hard at the heavy knight.
"boom!!"
The deafening bombardment of energy sounded, and the general holding a spear and his horse were slashed back by Ye Xiang. There was no sound when he landed on the ground.
Seeing the densely packed soldiers around him aiming at him with bows and arrows, and as they looked at the tramping ropes in front of him, the enemy soldiers rushing into the city had already revealed deep fear.
"Many of your families are still in the imperial capital at this time. Do you have the heart to kill each other like this?" Liu Jinglong's voice sounded again on the city wall: "You also know that in the Longteng Empire, I am the truly legitimate successor.
, The second prince Liu Jinghui, whom you followed, is rebelling now!! What are you waiting for if you don’t surrender at this time? Can’t you kill the Nine Clans?!”
After Liu Jinglong finished speaking, several heavy knights had jumped off their horses and put down their weapons.
Gradually, more and more heavy knights and the Imperial Guards put down their weapons and chose to surrender.
Finally, all the heavy knights and the guards who rushed into the city surrendered.
With a long sigh, Ye Xiang asked Kuang Tianlong and Suo Chong to recruit these surrendered soldiers, and he and Liu Jinglong returned to the Duke's Mansion.
Sitting in Ye Jingfeng's study, Liu Jinglong looked at Ye Xiang with more and more admiration: "Young Master Ye, I never thought that you had won such a beautiful victory so easily."
"These people were originally the imperial guards of the imperial capital, and they were not controlled by the second prince for a long time, so it was not very difficult to fight them over." Ye Xiang said with a smile,
"Do you have any tricks next?" Liu Jinglong said with hope at Ye Xiang.
"Your Majesty, I want to tell you something first." Ye Xiang said with a smile.
"What's the matter?" Liu Jinglong asked hurriedly.
"Do you remember what I said to you when I first met you?" Ye Xiang smiled slightly and said, "Actually, I am a disciple of Lingxiao Pavilion."
"You are a disciple of Lingxiao Pavilion?!! I didn't expect this!!" Liu Jinglong said in surprise.
"I think you should guess what I want now." Ye Xiang said with a smile.
"The Dragon Sect, which originally belonged to the Royal Sect of the Longteng Empire, no longer exists. My father has been telling me these days to ask me to find a reliable sect to cooperate with. Now it's just right, I've chosen Lingxiao Pavilion."
Liu Jinglong said with a smile.
"Although our Lingxiao Pavilion was considered a large sect in the Longteng Empire before, it suffered a huge blow later. Now its strength is not as strong as before." Ye Xiang said helplessly.
"It doesn't matter. In the future, in the Longteng Empire, Lingxiao Pavilion will be the sect with the closest relationship with our royal family. I will fully support the development of Lingxiao Pavilion." Liu Jinglong said very simply.
"This time I cooperated with Piaomiao Sect very well. I hope you can support Piaomiao Sect in the future." Ye Xiang thought about it and then continued.
"Haha, don't worry, as long as you have a good relationship with you, I will definitely support you!" Liu Jinglong said this and saw a hint of ambiguous expression in his eyes: "Your relationship with that Shangguan Feng seems to be good, she still seems to be
People from the Heavenly Demon Sect?!!”
"I have to discuss this matter with Feng'er before I can make a decision." Ye Xiang smiled slightly and did not deny Liu Jinglong's words.
"In the future, you will decide which sects there will be in the Longteng Empire. You are my teacher, and you have the final say in this matter." Liu Jinglong said readily.
"Actually, it is good to pull out the Heavenly Demon Sect now." Ye Xiang thought about it and then continued: "Now the Tianxie Sect is in the hands of the second prince. The strength of the Piaomiao Sect is probably not as strong as that of them, let alone behind them.
There is also a very mysterious Sky Eagle Cult."
"Yes, the Piaomiao Sect alone is indeed a little weak. The strength of the warrior cannot be underestimated." Liu Jinglong nodded but looked at Ye Xiang and asked, "How is Lingxiao Pavilion now?"
"Although there are many people in our sect who are active in the imperial capital now, they have suffered too much before, and these people are not very strong now." Ye Xiang said: "After this time, the Lingxiao Pavilion Holy Land will be in the Lingxiao Pavilion after a while.
The Biancai sent strong warriors from the sect to rebuild Lingxiao Pavilion in the Longteng Empire."
