At this time, Chen Ziyuan, a boy who was only sixteen years old, shouted:
"Surrender!"
"We won't kill you!"
"As long as you put down your weapons and no longer be enemies with us, we can consider letting you go."
"Anyone who is willing to join us, I guarantee that you will have a good life in the future!"
Listening to the words of the young man on the horse, everyone in the militia team was stunned.
They all looked at the young man riding on the horse, Chen Ziyuan.
At this time, the man who was greedy for life and feared death threw aside the weapon in his hand.
Then, there was the sound of weapons being discarded.
Looking at the actions of these militiamen, and then looking at Chen Ziyuan riding on the horse, for some reason, Master Sun Zhi began to appreciate Chen Ziyuan.
Perhaps because over the years, Chen Ziyuan, who grew up among the people, was influenced by Sun Chunxu. The character of Ziyuan is somewhat similar to that of Sun Chunxu.
Seeing that they all put down their weapons, this group of thousands of rebels looked at the guards on the gate of the capital.
Seeing this, the guards on the city gates all became more vigilant. They clenched their weapons and prepared to fight against the rebels.
At this moment, seeing the guards on the city gate like this and looking at his own people, Ziyuan felt a little worried.
"Uncle Xubai, grandfather, can we break into the city? I'm afraid we don't have enough people." Zi Yuan asked.
Listening to Zi Yuan's words, Lin Xubai and Cen Xian were still a little worried.
This battle was a bit rushed for them.
But at that time, they all came after listening to what Master Sun Zhicai said. Since Master Sun Zhicai was so confident about this battle, he must have some ideas.
If these rebels and the militiamen entered the capital together, the rebels might lose in terms of numbers, but in terms of their combat capabilities, it is not impossible to lose.
I'm afraid that after entering the capital, all the rebels will be wiped out.
I saw that Master Sun Zhicai smiled slightly and looked at Zi Yuan aside: "My child, first borrow the dagger I gave you."
After hearing this, Chen Ziyuan didn't hesitate much and hurriedly took out the dagger and handed it to Sun Zhicai.
At first, Chen Ziyuan couldn't understand it. It wasn't until he saw his master Sun Zhicai riding a horse and taking a few steps forward that he understood.
"This was a gift from the prince back then!"
"The young master riding on the horse is the son of the then crown prince!"
"This dagger was given to his child by the prince!"
"Those who know the truth, open the city gate and let us in. I promise not to argue with you!"
After listening to the words of the old man riding a horse below, the guard on the city gate stepped forward slightly.
Looking at the dagger, it seemed that it belonged to the prince back then, and looking at the old man, it seemed familiar. Thinking about what he just said, the guard was still a little suspicious.
After all, he's not stupid.
"You said he was the son of the then crown prince?" After asking, the guard looked at the soldiers on the side.
Looking at their faces, it can be seen that they don't quite believe it.
In front of the city gate, the old man Sun Zhicai, who was riding on a horse, had a serious face: "That's right! He is the son of the prince at that time! This thing was also a gift from the prince at that time!"
After hearing what he said, the guards at the city gate still didn't quite believe it. Looking at the dagger in his hand, they wanted to see if it was true.
"Go, take his dagger and let me see." The guard directed the soldiers on the side.
"Yes." The soldier hurriedly walked downstairs.
"Well...I have to see if this dagger is real," the guard shouted.
Listening to the words of the guard on the city gate, at this time, the master Sun Zhicai who was riding on the horse did not have much defense.
He believed that as long as the words could be explained clearly enough to convince them that the death of the prince was unjust, the city gate might be opened.
After all, Sun Zhicai was considered a capable official in his time.
After handing the dagger to the soldier, Sun Zhicai stared at the soldier closely.
See, the soldier handed the dagger to the guard with his own hands.
After taking the dagger, the guard was very excited. Seeing such a dagger, it can be said that even a person who doesn't like daggers would want to keep it as his own.
Taking a closer look at the weight, color, and carvings of this dagger, I fell in love with it and wanted to own such a dagger.
I have been looking at and touching the guard on the city gate for a long time. Riding on

Immediately, Sun Zhicai couldn't wait and asked: "Now, can you open the city gate and let us in?"
Hearing this sound, the guard on the city gate turned his eyes from the dagger to Sun Zhicai who was riding a horse outside the city gate.
"This is not enough."
"This dagger indeed belonged to the prince back then, but how could it be in your hands? Furthermore, if you say he is the prince's son, who would believe it?"
"When the prince passed away, he did not have any children, and the concubine still died in the water. If you say she is the prince's son, ask them yourself, who will believe it?"
After listening to this, Sun Zhicai thought about it and found that it did make some sense.
"I know it. Of course you don't believe what I said."
"But the blood that flows in this child is royal blood."
"Then I would like to ask, when the concubine passed away in the water, where were the maids beside her?"
These words made the guards at the city gate think for a moment.
After a moment, he said: "Didn't you run away?"
"She ran away. Can you testify that she ran away alone and didn't take any children with her?"
Upon hearing this, the guard was confused: "Impossible! Even if you are taking care of a child, the brothers at the city gate will definitely be suspicious."
Seeing that the defense was still unconvinced, Sun Zhicai didn't want to waste his time.
"Anyway, this is the son of the former prince. If you are wise, please open the city gate!"
"You all know the prince's conduct back then. He was wrongly accused."
Sun Zhicai's words put the guards at the city gate in a difficult position.
He asked the soldier on the side in a low voice: "Is he really the son of the crown prince?"
The soldier shook his head: "Wu Shoubei, don't listen to his slanderous words. Back then, the prince was beheaded for treason. Now they are also treason. Isn't this just the right thing? Let's deal with it together."
Another soldier on the side whispered: "Wu Shoubei, but everyone knew that he was wrongly accused."
The soldier retorted: "But it was not confirmed later. Do you understand the principle of 'knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts'?"
"Guard, let them enter the city. Maybe the prince was really wronged back then?"
The soldier continued to retort: "Are you crazy? Let them enter the city. If they lose the battle and the emperor finds out, how can we save our heads?"
Listening to the two soldiers around him arguing endlessly, Wu Shoubei didn't want to hear it anymore: "Okay, stop arguing."
After speaking, a relatively young face looked towards Sun Zhicai outside the city gate:
"Can you really guarantee that he is the son of the then crown prince?"
Sun Zhicai nodded: "I will guarantee it with my life." After saying that, Sun Zhicai gave another piece of advice: "I know you don't believe it. But think about it, with the kind of person the prince was back then, would he have done that?"
Wu Shoubei on the city gate shook his head slightly.
"Think about it again. Since the first year of Dechang, have people's lives been easier?"
Wu Shoubei on the city gate continued to shake his head slightly.
"Think about it again, are your salaries paid on time? Aren't you paid less?"
These words seemed to wake up Wu Guards at the city gate.
At the same time, the soldiers also had a bit of anger on their faces.
It seems that Master Sun Zhicai was right.
After thinking about it, Wu Shoubei at the city gate made a decision:
"I can let you in, but there is one thing. We will not join you in fighting. After entering the city, I have nothing to do with you."
Hearing this, Sun Zhicai and Chen Ziyuan on horseback outside the city gate smiled.
"good."
"May I ask what the hero's name is?"
Wu Shoubei said with a calm face: "Wu Yangxu."
"Okay." After responding, Sun Zhicai looked at Chen Ziyuan who was riding a horse and a few people around him with a smile on his face.
As for the individual soldiers at the city gate, some were reluctant.
"Wu Shoubei, is this...is the city gate really open?" a soldier asked.
"Open!" Wu Shoubei did not hesitate.
"But this... this is open. If Su Xiang and others find out, our heads will be in danger."
Seeing how scared the soldier was, Wu Shoubei said: "If you don't open, our heads will not be saved."
After hearing this, the soldier didn't say much and hurriedly opened the city gate.
Seeing the city gate open, Ziyuan imitated Uncle Xu's behavior before:
"brothers!"
"After entering the city, you are not allowed to accidentally injure any of the people! You are not allowed to rob the people of their food! You are not allowed to bully the people! Remember the military regulations! Violators will be executed!"
Then, I saw Chen Ziyuan pulling up the reins
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Rope, holding the sword tightly in his hand, thinking of the death of his parents, his eyes were filled with killing, and he rode towards the capital on horseback.
The brothers of the rebel army and the militiamen followed Chen Ziyuan, and several generals and the master Sun Zhicai followed Chen Ziyuan.
Suddenly, I felt that Chen Ziyuan was the master of this world.
Seeing them entering the city, a soldier at the city gate said worriedly: "Wu Guards, if they lose, we won't have to suffer too."
"It doesn't matter."
The sun is still climbing upwards.
Except for beggars, there were no other people on the streets. Every household in the city had its doors and windows closed.
Even the doors and windows of the homes of those civil and military officials were closed.
But at this time, the civil and military officials were busy with their own affairs in the outer city of the palace.
At this time, all the officials were nervous and wanted to flee the capital for refuge. Even Su Xiang was a little nervous at this time.
To say that the most nervous person is Du Antong, the governor of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
At this moment, an anxious voice hurriedly came over.
"Oh no!"
"Oh no!"
Hearing this sound, all the officials in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion were stunned and confused before they knew what it was about.
Grand Governor Du Antong hurriedly walked forward and asked with a frightened face: "What's wrong?"
"The rebel army... the rebel army... has entered the city!" The official was speechless.
After hearing this, Governor Du Antong's face became a little more angry: "How are those militiamen and city guards guarding the city?!"
"They...they...all surrendered." After hearing this, Governor Du Antong fainted and fell to the ground.
"Dududu!"
"Dududu!"
The shouts still failed to wake up the governor Du Antong.
The rebels marched through the streets and headed towards the palace.
They choose what they can say and say it. Those who are willing to surrender will surrender, and those who are unwilling to surrender will wait to die.
In this way, including the militiamen, there are tens of thousands of rebels in total.
They passed through the palace gates and were closing in on the palace.
When they heard that the rebel army was attacking the city, the secret guards came to fight against the enemy.
Although they only obeyed the emperor's orders, at the most critical moment, they could not just watch the rebels attack the emperor before he gave the order.
There are not many secret guards. In total, there are one or two thousand people.
Since the last major army in the three provinces of Da Mo was completely wiped out, with the emperor's permission, these secret guards were transferred into the main army to train the new recruits.
From this point of view, most of the generals who died this time as the main force of the three provinces of the Great Mo Dynasty were the former secret guards.
At this moment, the entire palace suddenly became a battlefield.
The rebels fought with the militiamen, and the surrendered guards fought with those who did not want to surrender.
Seeing it, the floors in the palace were suddenly covered with blood.
They were still fighting fiercely, and the youngest among these fights was Chen Ziyuan, the leader of the rebel army.
Although he was only sixteen years old, his battle was not inferior to those who were much older than him.
At this moment, Su Xiang, who was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, already knew that the rebels had entered the city.
As for the rebels entering the city, at this moment, Su Xiang could no longer control Du Antong.
At this time, he was more panicked than anyone else.
He stood and wandered back and forth in the prime minister's house, his face full of sorrow and his mind full of discomfort.
Seeing him like this, the officials of the Prime Minister's Palace also became worried. Looking at the pile of official affairs in their hands, they were no longer in the mood to take care of it.
Now, the people, officials, eunuchs, and maids in the entire capital all knew that the rebels had entered the city, but the emperor in the harem was completely unaware.
Of course, he wasn't the only one, there were still people who didn't know, such as the emperor's concubines, emperor's princesses and princes.
In today's Mo Dynasty, the only weapons that can be used are swords, crossbows, city-breaking vehicles, catapults, etc. There are no firearms.
Just because firearms were not widely used in this dynasty, but the production process was complicated, and the late emperor was afraid that people and officials would research new weapons that would be detrimental to the country and the country, so he ordered Quan Damo not to allow anyone to develop any new weapons.
As a result, the people naturally didn't think much about it. Those officials only relied on ready-made weapons and devoted themselves to preparing the forged weapons. This led to the fact that the Mo Dynasty never had any new weapons. progress.
