Zhao Yuan ran all the way and saw that he was getting closer and closer to the port, and he could already see the mast of the ship.
However, this time, things did not go well for Zhao Yuan.
When they were still a few miles away from the port, a group of Crusader cavalry charged into the sky, flying sand and rocks.
In the sky, dozens of sunspot Kunpeng were hovering, and above them sat a terrifying archer.
Zhao Yuan was not surprised when the Crusaders took the initiative. After all, this was the territory of the Crusaders. Before he launched the mutiny, the Crusaders had firmly controlled the city. Their intelligence system was controlled by Black Wings.
Kunpeng composition.
There is no doubt that when the imperial cavalry battalion was attacked, the garrison at the port had already received the news and immediately formed preparations for rescue. However, they did not expect that the battle would end so quickly. In just over half an hour, Zhao
Yuan had already led a large army to kill them.
The two cavalrymen, who were like a torrent of steel, did not pause at all, and the earth-shattering sound of iron hoofs was like a heavy hammer striking the earth.
Peng!
When the two cavalry collided, they made an earth-shattering noise.
There is no art of war.
There are no tactics.
There is no skill.
Some are just brutal and fierce attacks.
The light of the sword passed through the air, the arrow feathers shot in the air, and the flesh and blood flew in the air...
The battle situation became intense in an instant.
There was not much disparity in numbers between the two sides. The Crusaders had slightly more than a few hundred people. However, with just one contact, the Crusaders were at a disadvantage.
Because of the indestructible cultivator armor, the two sides, who were originally evenly matched, now revealed a huge disparity.
The cultivator armor that Zhao Yuan obtained from the prehistoric area was itself refined by the gods for cultivators. Although it is not an ancient treasure of any kind, for cultivators, it is no longer ordinary. For ordinary soldiers,
It is an extremely rare treasure, and its power is evident.
Perhaps, there is nothing unusual about these cultivator armors worn on ordinary soldiers, and they do not pose a life threat to cultivators, but for ordinary soldiers, it is a disaster.
The sharp arrows shot by the black-winged Kunpeng in the air could not harm the Dragon Wing Cavalry at all, because their sharp arrows could not penetrate the cultivator's armor.
If you want to shoot the Dragon Wing Cavalry to death, you have to shoot at a deadly unit. However, shooting from the air depends on the huge inertia of shooting the enemy, not accuracy. After all, the cavalry itself is moving at high speed.
Shooting the Dragon Wing Cavalry from a high altitude basically has no fatal parts, because the cultivator's armor almost covers most of the body, and there are some unprotected places that the archer cannot hit.
Two thousand cavalrymen marched straight in and smashed into the Crusaders' cavalry. For a moment, people were overturned on their backs and blood flowed like rivers.
Zhao Yuan rode the evil unicorn and charged at the front. He barely paused. Behind him was a bloody road with countless crusaders and war horses lying dead.
Zhao Yuan knew very well that the longer he delayed, the harder it would be to fight after rushing into the port.
The only way to annihilate the Crusaders in the military port is to fight all the way into the military camp, and then, with the help of ordinary people in the Russian Empire, completely defeat the Crusaders...
…
The Ninth Prince personally led an army of 3,000 people straight to the palace of the Er Empire.
At this time, the puppet barracks near the palace had become a mess. All kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky. Some generals who were loyal to the Crusaders were either killed or isolated, and were unable to organize troops to rush to the palace.
Three thousand armored soldiers entered the palace effortlessly, with overwhelming momentum and no decent resistance at all.
With just two sticks of incense, the entire palace was completely settled and under the control of the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince followed Zhao Yuan's suggestion and killed all the core figures of the puppet regime on the spot, including members of the royal family who shared his same ancestry.
This is not only a battlefield of killings, but also a life-and-death political struggle. If the Ninth Prince is not ruthless, once the royal family he ousted from power rises, he will also die without a burial.
In the palace, people were killed and blood flowed like rivers, and corpses were scattered everywhere.
Zhao Yuan didn't know that the Ninth Prince was much more vicious than he thought. Not only the royal family members who were of the same line as him were all killed, but also some palace maids and eunuchs. Anyone who posed any threat to the Ninth Prince would be killed.
They will all be killed on the spot and eradicated.
This massacre has been recorded in the annals of history. According to rumors, more than 2,000 people were killed in the palace, and the blood stains were washed away for three days and three nights.
The Ninth Prince's crazy killing of clan members was not only to clear obstacles for himself, but the most important problem was that he also shouldered a very important task.
Rescue Lan Cai'er.
Killing the royal family and rescuing Lan Cai'er seem to be unrelated things, but in the eyes of the Ninth Prince, they are closely related.
If people in the palace knew that it was Zhao Yuan who launched the mutiny, they would immediately threaten Lan Cai'er.
Once Lan Cai'er is used as a bargaining chip, the mutiny is likely to fail, and the future of the Ninth Prince is self-evident.
In order to prevent Lan Cai'er from becoming a bargaining chip and threatening Zhao Yuan, the best way is to kill all the powerful people in the palace without asking any questions. Naturally, no one will think of using Lan Cai'er to threaten Zhao Yuan.
In fact, Zhao Yuan did not go to the palace to rescue Lan Cai'er in person just to avoid being coerced.
People in the palace could think of using Lan Cai'er to threaten Zhao Yuan, but no one would think of using Lan Cai'er to threaten the Ninth Prince. Therefore, Lan Cai'er would be safer if Zhao Yuan was not in the palace.
When Lan Cai'er was released from the prison, she still looked confused, especially when she was surrounded by a group of humble-looking Er people, which made her even more puzzled.
Until the Ninth Prince met Lan Cai'er in person and treated Lan Cai'er as an honored guest. His respectful look even made Lan Cai'er feel flattered.
Lan Cai'er had heard about the Ninth Prince, and no matter what, she couldn't figure out why the Ninth Prince, who was so powerful in the world at this time, would be so humble in front of her.
When Lan Cai'er heard Zhao Yuan's name, she immediately understood.
In this world, only Zhao Yuan can make a figure like the Ninth Prince bow his head.
When Lan Cai'er heard Zhao Yuan's name, she burst into tears.
Although there was no physical torture during these months of imprisonment, Lan Cai'er felt that life was worse than death.
Anyone who has never lost freedom cannot understand the suffering and pain of losing freedom.
On earth, there is such a poem, "Life is precious, love is even more valuable. If it is for freedom, both can be thrown away." This poem can be said to perfectly explain the importance of "freedom".
From the time Lan Caier left Ci Nu to the time when she broke up with Zhao Yuan in the Qin Empire and traveled around, it can be seen that she is a person who loves life and freedom. It would be more cruel to imprison someone like her than to kill her.
.
In the past few months, Lan Cai'er thought about committing suicide many times, but there was one person who supported her to survive. She firmly believed that as long as Zhao Yuan knew, he would definitely come to save her. This belief allowed her to survive countless loneliness
night...
…
"Your Highness, I want to see Zhao Yuan." Lan Cai'er stared at the Ninth Prince.
"General Zhao is fighting..."
"Where?"
"Russian military port."
"Give me a horse, a bow, and ten pots of arrows!" Lan Cai'er gently combed her bangs and stood up slowly, with a fierce fighting spirit between her brows.
"But, the master is in frail health..."
"General Zhao needs me!" Lan Cai'er said every word, her blue eyes like the deep starry sky.
"Okay, I will accompany you."
Seeing the heroic Lan Cai'er, the Ninth Prince was secretly frightened. He could feel the murderous aura emanating from Lan Cai'er.
He is worthy of being Master Yi Jian. However, less than an hour after he was released from prison and the ban was lifted, he immediately became energetic and possesses a soul-stirring murderous aura.
a horse.
A bow.
Ten pots of arrows.
There is also a set of cultivator armor.
The Ninth Prince asked a subordinate who was similar in stature to Lan Cai'er to take off his cultivator armor and gave it to Lan Cai'er.
Now is the time of turmoil. Letting Lan Cai'er put on the cultivator's armor will not only be able to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, but also give Lan Cai'er an extra layer of life protection.
No one knows the importance of Lan Caier's life better than Lord Ninth Prince.
When Zhao Yuan asked the Ninth Prince to rescue Lan Cai'er, the Ninth Prince vaguely guessed that Zhao Yuan's ultimate purpose of launching this mutiny was to rescue Lan Cai'er and help him seize the Er Imperial Capital. It was just a matter of course.
