"Woo——————"
"Woo——————"
The sound of deep horns sounded, awakening the Forbidden Army guarding the city.
After understanding what happened, they all looked suspicious. Because there were so many enemy actions, the secret sentries arranged at several checkpoints outside Chang'an should have seen it a long time ago. Why didn't any information come back?
There was no time to think too much about this matter, so I could only dress neatly, pick up my sword and climb up the city wall to prepare for battle!
Now that the army is outside, Chang'an has deployed only eight thousand defenders. These armies were personally deployed by the emperor's master. No one knows how strong they are. They only know that they have some basic knowledge of martial arts.
At this time, all the people in Chang'an City were in a panic. Some were wandering on the streets and had not yet fallen asleep, and some who were asleep ran out to ask questions without even having time to put on their clothes.
Even those who were enjoying themselves felt their whole bodies tremble, and they hurriedly dressed and ran out.
"What's wrong? Why is the horn sounding?"
"I don't know, is it... is there someone plotting to rebel and attack the city?"
"Look! It's an arrow!"
Suddenly a large ball of fire and arrows appeared in the distance, and the people were completely panicked.
"Siege the city? How is this possible? Are the Tibetans coming?"
"I don't know, what the hell, just run for your life!"
"Run for your life? Where to run!?"
Not long after, the imperial army began to evacuate the people and led them to an underground palace dug out at an unknown time, located under the former residence of Li Yifu.
When the work here was over, the army outside, numbering a hundred thousand, also arrived at Ximen City.
At this time, Wu Zhao and Li Dan were missing, and the city seemed like a mess.
Not long after, Yuan Tiangang slowly walked out and stood alone on the city wall.
"Five surnames and seven hopes... You nobles from aristocratic families finally couldn't bear it anymore..."
Led by Qiwang of the Five Surnames, there are more than sixty aristocratic families in the army. The leader, it seems, is a member of the Wei family.
The man from Webster looked at Yuan Tiangang, without any fear on his face, and slowly raised his hand.
"Send the signal, seize the city, kill!"
"kill!"
At the command, siege engines and bamboo ladders were launched from the army.
Yuan Tiangang casually unleashed a few bursts of energy, and all the ladders were broken.
Then facing the flaming arrows, he turned over, picked up a handful, and waved them back!
In a single moment, more than a dozen people were killed.
In places that are too far away, people with martial arts skills will climb up the city wall within a few moments, and when they encounter the guarding Tang army, they will kill them with their swords.
Not only that, there are also various hooks and claws holding the city wall, and there are also dense crowds of people climbing up along the ropes.
From below, Weishi used his inner strength to wrap his voice and shouted loudly: "The main force of the army is outside. Li Yunxiao is brazen about attacking and defending. He suppressed us before, but now, you are an ant!"
"I advise you to put down your weapons and open the city gates. If I wait for you to take over, you will all be heroes. You can take the women and treasures of Chang'an as you like! Play with them as you like!!"
Yuan Tiangang just watched Wei Shi shake his military spirit without making any move.
At this moment, a fight broke out at the city gate, and a group of defenders suddenly killed each other. They were all members of the aristocratic families hiding inside.
Soon, many defenders put down their weapons, followed closely behind, and the city gates opened wide!
Yuan Tiangang glanced at the people below and disappeared on the city wall in an instant.
"The city gate is open! It's open!"
Someone shouted loudly, followed closely by an army of 100,000 people pouring in, their anger rising into the sky!
Soon the eight thousand forbidden troops in the city were fighting with the rebels.
In less time than a stick of incense, the city of Chang'an was completely in chaos.
Countless houses were damaged and set on fire.
In the palace, several civil and military ministers stood, listening to the sound of war outside, all of them looked pale.
They were suddenly called over, and Wu Zhao, who was sitting on top, remained silent, as if he was waiting for something.
"Your Majesty! The situation is over. Let's hide in the forest and mountains from the north gate and escape for our lives!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! Prince, let's run! If it's too late, it'll be too late!!"
Wu Zhao said calmly: "Run? Why run?"
"Huh?" Everyone was confused.
They've all been attacked, and it's obvious that they can't resist. This is so similar to the Xuanwu Sect back then. Why don't you run away? Waiting to die?
"Don't panic, just stay here."
"Alas!!" Listening to the closer and closer shouts of killing, all the ministers frowned and sighed.
Di Renjie looked at Wu Zhao attentively, and he keenly noticed that something seemed wrong with Wu Zhao...
Logically speaking, it is normal for the king to be reluctant to part with the Chang'an Palace, which proves that she is not afraid of death, but she still has to drag a group of ministers with her even if she dies. This is not like the Wu Zhao he has known over the years!
....
Wei Shi and others outside, wearing heavy armor, took the lead on a street in the center of Chang'an, advancing step by step.
Whether it was the imperial army or the rebels, both sides used the houses as cover, and the killings were extremely brutal.
Nearly every intersection was contested, and nearly every patch of ground was stained with blood.
But because the sky was dark and the lunar eclipse was dark, no one noticed that there were many bloodstains on the ground, which were almost black...
It is normal for the rebels not to notice these things, because the main force of the rebels are bandits and bandits.
He was bribed for more than ten years, and in order not to be discovered, the nobles of these aristocratic families were very strict.
Now that the city gate is broken, it is the most suitable time to show your true nature! They've all decided!
Whenever you see something valuable, you must put it in your arms, and when you see a beautiful woman, you must take off your clothes on the spot.
It's a pity that there are valuable things, but all the people suddenly disappeared. Except for the imperial army, they didn't see any of them, let alone the beauties!
Webster led more than a thousand rebels who killed everyone they saw and burned their houses. In just half an hour, they reached the place where the fighting was fiercest.
In front of the palace!
Countless torches illuminate the bright hall. Over the years, the wind and sun have not lost its splendor.
The eyes of Webster and others reveal greed, obsession, and a winning smile...
He advocated this matter. A few years ago, he had been studying this matter since Queen Wei was dismissed along with Li Xian.
They are all smart and know that with Li Yunxiao around, the longer the delay, the more dangerous they, the Guanlong nobles, will be!
Therefore, he secretly stationed troops and gathered people's hearts. He wanted all the bandits, bandits, and people from the enemy country, as long as they could be loyal to him!
Now there is only one place left: the palace. If he gets in, he can become the emperor!
The rest of the aristocratic families who came with them, they had already agreed that they were all the founding officials, prime ministers, and generals. They were all trivial!
Wei Shi took the lead, reversed the long sword, pointed at the imperial city and said with a smile: "Emperors take turns, thinking that Li Shimin relied on us to rebel, but now he wants to eliminate us, it's too late! Now it's our turn!"
"kill!"
"Kill--!"
Listening to the killing cry right in front of you.
A group of ministers came to the outside of the hall to watch timidly.
"Danger! Death!! There are only a few hundred forbidden troops in the palace, but are all the eight thousand outside the palace dead?"
"The world is so big, there are countless shelters, but Li Yunxiao took all the soldiers out. God is really going to destroy our Tang Dynasty!"
"Li Yunxiao! It's all Li Yunxiao's fault!!"
"I said at the beginning that it was not appropriate to fight, but no one listened to me! You guys!!"
The more everyone listened, the more desperate they became. Even the emperor stopped calling, and it was too late for them to escape now!
