Chapter 741: The battle begins, the attack in the dark night
"What is that?"
In the dark night, the fireworks blooming in the air were so dazzling. Xu Yuantu narrowed his eyes and suddenly felt a bad premonition in his heart.
"this......"
Several secret guards present looked over from a distance, and for a moment they were filled with thoughts, not knowing the inside story.
“Snap to check!”
When Xu Yuantu saw the reaction of several people, he knew that they didn't understand the matter. He shook his sleeves and shouted coldly.
The few people looked at each other and did not dare to hesitate. They scattered their feet and rushed towards the place where fireworks bloomed.
"At this time, don't make any trouble!"
Unlike the ordinary people in the capital, as secret guards, he had a deeper understanding of the situation in the capital at this time.
It seems that there is nothing to do in the capital, but after the rebellion of the vassal kings, the combat power in the city has long been empty. It can be said that it is a strong man on the outside and the middle. If someone has bad intentions at this moment, the capital will be in danger.
In the capital city, outside the city gate, in the dark night, there was a faint sound of soldiers and horses gathering.
On the top of the city, it happened to be the time to change shifts. Those who went down to the city had already become drowsy and had no awareness of things outside the city. Of course, they might be aware of them, but with the principle that more things are worse than less things, most of them chose to turn a blind eye.
The newly changed soldiers smiled knowingly when they saw this scene.
"General, there will be no accident, right?"
With the protection of the night, a young man in armor said to the man beside him less than 100 meters away from the city wall.
“Wait a little longer.”
After a moment of silence, a voice came over. Compared with the young general's uneasy voice, this voice was obviously much calmer.
The firelight seemed particularly conspicuous in the night. Suddenly, twelve torches lit up on the top of the city and began to shake.
"General, it's a signal!!"
It was the young general's voice again, but this time the surprise was even stronger.
“Do it!!”
The man's voice was a little excited this time, but he did not make any pre-war mobilization. With a wave of his hand, the troops behind him were all dispatched.
After a moment of unworthy work, under the reflection of torches, a well-equipped army was seen entering the city gate in a row, and the team was set up, with a long snake in a row. It was seen that the rear was invisible. Under a rough estimate, there were tens of thousands of people.
However, such a large number of people entered the capital, and the city was still surprisingly quiet and did not make any noise.
These two groups of people seemed to be invisible to each other. After the city gate was wide open, they did not negotiate with the visitor at all.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the army entering the capital from the east gate was only the war horses making some noise along the way, while the personnel were so quiet that they were terrible.
"Who?"
Finally, a voice broke the strange silence.
But the answer to him was an iron lump.
With an explosion, the battle started instantly.
"kill!!!"
The lurking dragon tore off all its disguises in this moment. The army was extremely fast and rushed straight to the Daming Palace.
The loud noise also woke most of the people in the capital from their sleep and were still immersed in the successful fight against the rebellion. What happened outside? The weather is not good today. Could it be that it is raining again?
But the subsequent explosion made their hearts rise again. Before, they had heard this sound, which was the loud noise caused by the King of Dongping when he led his people to attack the capital.
"Pi Lie!!"
In the Daming Palace, Emperor Mingkang was awakened by the explosion of the thunderbolt bomb. At this moment, he never understood what was going on.
But he felt a feeling in his heart that once the thunderbolt firearm, a firearm with huge lethality appeared, would inevitably cause an uproar. At this time, it exploded in the capital, and someone would be rebelling again.
"Dai Quan!!"
A low voice mixed with a monstrous anger.
"Xu Yuantu!!"
Dai Quan had already gone to rest. After all, it was already ugly. It was just when he was sleeping alone. When the eunuch on duty outside the hall heard Emperor Mingkang calling for someone, he hurriedly opened the door and walked in.
At the same time, a figure floated in.
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Dai is going to rest."
Emperor Mingkang was in a bad mood and his tone was naturally not good. When he heard the little eunuch's words, he couldn't help but curse.
"I've woken up this old dog, he's not awake yet?"
But at this time he was not counting on Dai Quan, but another person.
Xu Yuantu, the leader of the secret guard.
"Xu Yuantu, what happened outside?"
Xu Yuantu clasped his fists and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, I saw a huge fireworks appearing in the east of the city. It was already late at night and the time was wrong. I guessed that something might happen, so I asked someone to go over and investigate. Then another thunderbolt bomb exploded in the east of the city. I guess there were traitors who were in trouble tonight, so I begged Your Majesty to order the rebellion immediately!"
It was too late, and the person sent out to investigate had not come back yet, so Xu Yuantu could only give such an answer based on his own guess.
However, after hearing this, Emperor Mingkang immediately understood that Xu Yuantu’s guess might be correct. Fireworks are signals and thunderbolts are evidence. The situation is extremely urgent and cannot be delayed any more.
"Xu Yuantu, I will pass on my will to order the Imperial Guard to attack and meet the enemy, and to transfer the five Governor's Office to suppress it with all its might. The special operations team is ready to meet the enemy. The secret guards temporarily take over the defense of the Daming Palace. No one is allowed to enter or exit without any irrelevant people."
"Flying pigeons also sent a letter to the camp in the suburbs of Beijing to quell the rebellion and attack them from front to back. It is necessary to let these thieves die without a place to bury them."
Xu Yuantu clasped his fists and took the order and left.
Emperor Mingkang was calm in the face of danger and arranged everything in such a short time, which made him quite pleased.
After orders were passed from the secret guards, Xu Yuantu felt the huge pressure on his body. This was the biggest danger that Dakang had encountered since its establishment. The thunderbolt bombs that exploded in his ears seemed to be thrown into the Daming Palace in the next moment.
"Sir!! Not good!!"
Before Xu Yuantu could send out the last military order in his hand, a man covered in blood staggered in.
This person was the one who sent him to check the situation before.
"The people in the camp in the suburbs of Beijing have rebelled!!"
Xu Yuantu felt a little sad. He never expected that such a situation would be the case. The generals in the camp in the suburbs of Beijing were all confidants arranged by Emperor Mingkang. The rebellion on the other side? Isn’t it just a big joke?
"This is impossible!!"
"Sir, this is true. Yu Lichuan brought people to flee!!"
Xu Yuantu frowned. Yu Lichuan was indeed a general in the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, but this general disappeared in the battle with King Dongping. At first, he only thought that the other party had sacrificed, but now it seems that it is not.
