Chapter 401: Outbreak
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
After seeing the Chamber of Secrets, You’s heart settled down completely, she even thought that it would be good if Chunli and Chunfeng could also take refuge here.
The marquis and Chunyu were responsible, but what did it have to do with Chunli and Chunfeng?Chunli actually said he would accompany his father at home, which was a comforting reason. As the eldest son of marquis house, Chunli had been drifting for so many years and finally made a responsible decision.
As for Chunfeng, he simply said that he would go to Dali Temple on duty. Now Dali Temple still had a fart matter. This boy clearly wanted to participate in the trouble in the city. The enemy was going to Enemy at the Gates soon, and he still wanted to do so. You was angry with it.
Ye Jiayao was sitting in a rocking chair by the window, looking at the mottled bamboo shadows outside the window and the faint fragrance floating in the night wind.
Qiao Xi was going to close the window to avoid the fragrance of flowers outside making the second lady uncomfortable.
” No, just leave it open and let fresh air in,” Ye Jiayao stopped it and said.
” But …”
Ye Jiayao smiled: ” No matter.”
Strange to say, since the emperor suffered a stroke, the situation suddenly became tense and her adverse reactions suddenly disappeared. It seemed that this smelly boy also knew that this was a unusual time and became honest.
Ye Jiayao caressed her slightly bulging belly, and naturally a soft light shone in her eyes.
” Did the lady rest?”
” I has just been there and the lady has rested.”
Ye Jiayao nodded and looked out of the window again. Song Qi should be coming soon.
Thinking about Cao Cao and then Cao Cao arrived, Xiang Tao led Song Qi to see her.
” Are they all set up?” Ye Jiayao asked when he met.
Song Qi replied, ” The Zhong Xiang’s family is in a remote mountain depression. Even if there is a war, it will have little impact there. Moreover, Zhong Xiang’s father said that they still have a cellar in the mountain where sweet potatoes are hidden. If the situation is critical, they can hide in the cellar. Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang should be safe there.”
Ye Jiayao obviously relieved. Originally she wanted to invite Jiang Shu’s family to come here, but Jiang Shu refused and they were about to go to the in-laws side. She was unable to outspeak him, so she had to let Song Qi follow them and had a look.
During the night, Song Qi and Zhu Wang took turns to keep vigil. Although there was still a line of defense of the northwest camp in front, the rebels would not be able to get through it, but they would also guard against bandits or something.There must be some fish in troubled waters at this time.
Three days passed without incident.
Every day news came from the city that there was already a tense situation between King Yu and Prince, but they all maintain the final bottom line. Everyone wanted to move, but King Yu posed as a victim, and Prince needed to convince people with reason and thought about what he can act to make this matter right and proper. Therefore, neither side dared to make a move unless it was absolutely necessary.
On the fourth day, there was finally a fire in the front. A total of 200,000 military forces from several armies fought with 100,000 chosen men from the Northwest Camp. The fighting lasted two days and two nights, and even the farms could see the blazing flames.
Song Qi suggested that everyone hid in the Chamber of Secrets.
Ye Jiayao deeply believed that he was right .The rebels were overwhelming forces before reinforcements arrived. No matter how tough the northwest camp was, it can only supported hard, and the defense line may be breached at any time.
So they moved all the stuff into the chamber, and they all hid in.
Song Qi also set up a decoration outside and designed it as if it had been desolated for a long time.
The hiding was for several days.
Ye Jiayao was in the Chamber of Secrets and her heart was in the city. It was unknown that how Chunyu and Little Jing were now. She was a little envious of Naya, who had a good martial arts skill and was able to fight side by side with everyone, but she can only hide like a turtle.
At the moment, Xia Chunyu was patrolling in the palace, with 3,000 guards and troops stationed around the palace gates. Zichen Palace was heavily guarded. The imperial city was originally a solemn place, and now there was more dignified and tense atmosphere. If the city was broken, then this was the last line of defense, hoping that it can support until Helian Xuan came back and until the reinforcements arrived.
” Second Brother …”
Xia Chunfeng walked in a hurry and shouted at a distance.
Xia Chunyu stopped.
” Second Brother, you asked me to stare at Datong Hui. Today there was indeed a movement.”
Xia Chunyu’s eyes became cold: ” Say.”
” In recent days, several people have come to Datong Hui every day, just passing by, but these people don’t appear again today after posting a notice to close the door of Datong Hui yesterday.” Xia Chunfeng said.
” Have you targeted these people?” Xia Chunyu looked more dignified.
Although he has caught many fresh faces these days, Xia Chunyu speculated that Datong Hui has been taking root in Jinling City for many years. Perhaps, the power had already infiltrated, and it was not clear how strong the power was, but at the critical moment, a straw can crush a camel. Civil strife, he was most worried about civil strife, siege by strong enemies outside and rebellion by spies inside, which was really dangerous.
Xia Chunfeng said firmly: ” We keep up with them. The people of the Ninth Master have played a big role this time. According to the report of the Ninth Master, some of them are iron workers, bamboo makers, bean curd buyers, tea shops and even fortune tellers, but today, without exception, they are all closed down and the doors are closed.”
Xia Chunyu’s heart had a movement, it was about to have a big action!
” Keep watching and report as soon as there is any news,” Xia Chunyu said seriously.
” Yes.” Xia Chunfeng led the order away, what the fuck, this kind of work was what he liked to do. His ambition was to fight like his father and his second brother. As a result, the emperor issued an imperial edict that he became a xu and went to Dali Temple. Doing those bad jobs that belong to Shaoqing was a waste of talent, this just wasted his time and he was already impatient. After this crisis, in any case, let the prince changed his job, it had better let him go to the front to kill the enemy.
Looking at Chunfeng’s departure, Xia Chunyu thought that it was impossible to do great things with the power of the Jiangzuo League alone. There must be a connection. The guards were not without suspicious characters. All suspicious people had already been stared at, but they were not sure that all spies were under the control. There were also five city patrol departments over there. If they acted together, the harm would be great.
Xia Chunyu thought about it and then went to the East Palace to discuss with the prince for less than half an hour before going out.
That night, the enemy outside the city launched the most violent attack, and finally tore open the defense line of the Northwest Camp and drove straight, the enemy really approached the walls.
The prince went up to the city wall and looked at the great army below.The torches looked like the Milky Way. His heart sank to the extreme.
The other side was damaged, but there were still more than 100,000 soldiers. And there were only 23,000 soldiers in the city, combined with the people voluntarily organized forces, it was only 25,000. The disparity of power is tantamount to an ant versus an elephant.
How long would it last?No one dared to think about it, but only supported a while is for a while.
The enemy rushed to the gate and launched a siege war without stopping, threatened to break the imperial city.
” Rush, kill … capture the traitors and villains, and protect the country and defended the emperor …” It was the fifth imperial uncle who survived that shouted below.
The failure to successfully intercept and kill the fifth imperial uncle was the biggest failure in the plan. The prince hated and gnashed his teeth. It was no use regretting at this time. He thought of it and tried his best. The failure to succeed can only be said to be fate.
In King Yu’s palace, a bunch of King Yu’s staff and men of sacrifice all looked dignified, but their eyes were determined, and their achievements and failures were seen today.
” As we all know, the success or failure of life and death lies in today’s day. If succeed, all of you present will be the heroes of the past .Fail, that you are disorderly princes and villains, and will be beheaded. Whether they are heroes or villains depends on you.” Yu Wang Zhen said.
Everyone responded in unison: ” I will serve my Lord, even if I die, I will not shrink back.”
King Yu nodded slightly, ” Well, listen to rhe orders, Yu Hai, you led 600 troops to ambush the tunnel, Luo Kewu, Zhang Qiao, Zhao Xiang, Guo Li ‘er etc, each lead 300 military forces to pretend to attack the four gates in the north, south, west and east, Luo Kewu, a 300 – member team will join you. At that time, the other party will think that the north gate is the key attack point. In the guards, there are people to connect. It is the best if you can break through, attack Zichen Palace directly, protect the emperor, capture prince and queen alive. If you can’t break through, there will try to create momentum, attract troops and delay time …”
King Yu already had answers, and this plan had been worked out countless times in his mind, there were only 3,000 guards. As far as he knew, four gates, five hundred each, and another one thousand were placed in Zichen Palace, guarded by Xia Chunyu himself. Xia Chunyu was a battle-hardened and resourceful military commander, and must not be underestimated.
On his side, there were only 2,000 troops and there was a great disparity in troops, but as long as the inside and outside cooperated properly, there was still a good chance of winning the battle. What’s more, there were several top experts in the Jiangzuo League, each one of them was the characters who can fight with one hundred enemies. It should not be difficult for these men to kill a Xia Chunyu. As long as Xia Chunyu died and left his party without leader, the so-called Huai Song’s first elite will become a loose sand. Not enough to fear of them.
This was only a battle against the royal palace, and the men from the five city patrol department would also wait to open the gate and release the military forces of the fifth imperial uncle into the city, this is the day to break the city and break the palace.
After this night, Huai song would usher in a new sun, and he was the sun.
When the time came, he would rebuild his national power and unify the whole country, and he would build a lasting achievement.
At that time, King Yu was full of ambition.
This was a tense arrangement of troops. Ruan was also on pins and needles. There were so many people in the palace this evening. These people did not come in through the gate and walked in secret passages. She didn’t know there were secret passages in the palace.
The siege outside had already started, and King Yu clearly wanted to take the opportunity to join forces inside and outside. Ruan had turned several circles inside the house, with contradictions in her heart and finally made up her mind.
” Man, you quietly go out of the office to find Royal Highness Jing, just saying that there will be a change tonight. Royal Highness Jing will understand.”
Man worried, ” Princess, what about you?”
” Don’t worry about me, King Yu is ambitious. If he is superior, he will certainly attack us southern Xinjiang, not only southern Xinjiang, but also neighboring countries.” Nguyen hurried way.
” Princess, why don’t we go together? I can take you out. ” Man said.
” No.” Ruan refused without hesitation. Man had achieved great lightness skill and had never performed well since she came to Jinling. This was her last card. Man was fine to walk alone, but it was difficult for her to leave with Ruan. Maybe both of them would not be able to walk away. The most important thing now was to spread the news.
