In the imperial city, the south gate.
A rush of footsteps sounded in the wind and snow, and several soldiers from White Jade City rushed to the incarnation of Wang Tian.
She whispered something into his ear.
Wang Tianhua, who was wearing armor, seemed to have expected it, and there was no surprise on his face.
The order given to him by the Imperial Master was just to guard the two city gates with Wei Qingyu, and he did not need to pay attention to other things.
His subordinates reported to him the defense situation of the four city gates and told him that the army brought from Baiyu City had taken over the four city gates and could only enter or exit before noon.
Wang Tianhua frowned slightly after hearing this and waved them back to guard the east and west gates.
Then he looked at the snowflakes falling in the sky and sighed.
He said to himself: "Now that the imperial master has returned, since the people in your four military camps cannot get out, and since I have guarded the four city gates, what can you do to make trouble?"
"My Lord, the question is, what should we do if the Forbidden Army scattered on the streets wants to attack us?"
Wu Tiancheng, the general of Baiyu City, looked at him and said: "The troops we brought are now scattered among the four city gates. Will there be some less?"
It was already past midnight, and the sky was still shrouded in gloom.
The entire city wall and the sky almost turned into the same color. In such bad weather, few people were willing to leave the city. This reduced Wang Tianhua a lot of trouble.
"If the Imperial Guards patrolling the streets dare to come to the south gate, and if they cannot be persuaded, then let's start a war."
Heavenly King Hua Wei narrowed his eyes and said: "You and I are only loyal to one emperor. There is no queen. You must always understand this truth, not to mention that the master of the country has returned."
"Then we will increase the sniper distance and use the weapons we brought to kill the opponent's spirit."
Ma Tiancheng thought for a while and said quietly: "If we really have to fight, we should hold on until after noon. There should be no problem."
"The same idea as mine." Wang Tianhua nodded.
At present, the four military camps have been controlled by the imperial army. They cannot enter or leave. There are less than 500 forbidden troops scattered in the imperial city.
And he brought almost three thousand soldiers here, which was enough for him.
As for the Imperial Guards in the inner courtyard of the palace, he didn't need to worry about it. With the National Preceptor and General Nalan here, what surprises could happen?
You must know that most of the forbidden troops are under the control of Nalan Yu. As long as the forbidden troops go to court, there will be no chaos among the forbidden troops in the palace.
As if aware of what Wu Tiancheng was thinking, Wu Tianhua said in a deep voice: "Since the battle in White Jade City, you have not made any meritorious service for many years."
Wu Tiancheng thought differently. In his opinion, it was just a struggle for power between one or two emperors, but he wanted to lead the guards of Baiyu City to the imperial city.
Maybe the next moment, there will be a river of blood here.
Just thinking about the city lord's wife and a woman who went to the North City Gate. How can I say that I am also a big man? Is it possible that I can't compare to an ordinary woman?
"You know the methods of the Imperial Master. Try to make a great contribution this time."
Wang Tianhua looked at him and said calmly, he was not afraid of this guy changing his mind. After all, Wu Tiancheng had never committed any crime in these years.
There is ready-made credit in front of him. If he still doesn't know how to fight for it, there is nothing he can do.
"I understand this. I'd like to trouble the Lord of the city to worry about it for me."
Wu Tiancheng squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of the city, and replied coldly: "We still have a lot of heavy slaves with us, unless they don't want to die anymore."
After discussing with Wang Tianhua in Bai Jade City, he finally brought dozens of heavy slaves all the way, so that they could play a huge role when facing the enemy's charge.
Wang Tianhua sighed softly. He also did not expect that the encounter with the imperial master many years later would be the scene in front of him of bringing a large army to the king.
This reminded him of the battlefield in southern Xinjiang and the killing of enemies in the North Sea a few years ago. As long as there was a national master, his blood would boil.
It was cold and freezing, and most of the people in the imperial city stayed at home. No one knew that today's emperor had turned the city into a royal flag again.
Therefore, in the streets and alleys between private houses and the official avenue in front of the Yamen, except for those who went out to buy groceries, not a single pedestrian was seen passing by for a long time.
The imperial city suddenly became lonely during the winter solstice, and even the imperial guards who used to go out for patrols from time to time were nowhere to be found.
Hurrah, there was suddenly an uneasy sound in the wind and snow, because there was the sound of horses roaring.
There was thick snow on the long street, so the sound of horse hooves could not be heard, let alone voices, or the sound of armor and waist weapons clashing.
There was an eerie quietness in the wind and snow.
Wang Tianhua sniffed the breath in the wind, his pupils narrowed slightly.
After a moment, he looked at Wu Tiancheng and said, "They are indeed here."
Wu Tiancheng nodded solemnly.
There was no sound of trumpets, only a group of hundreds of Forbidden troops, charging towards the south city gate!
These forbidden troops came from the Beida camp, and were also commanded by close associates of the Linghu family. They were considered the Queen's confidants... These guys went out for inspection in the morning, and found out when they returned to the Beida camp.
Not only that, when they arrived at the palace, they found that the palace gate was closed tightly and there was not a single forbidden soldier showing up at the top of the city.
The entire palace is like an open array, no one is allowed in or out.
When they arrived at the gate of the Nanda Military Camp and found that they could not get in or out, the team leader Linghu Guangming panicked. They could not contact anyone at the moment.
So, just gather all the strength of your men and come to the south gate.
If there is chaos in the imperial city, the Linghu family can still leave the imperial city through the south gate... because the clever Linghu Guangming remembered the winter of that year.
That year, the four military camps were also unable to enter and exit, and the four city gates were sealed. Then the imperial city changed.
Therefore, messengers were sent to gather another group of patrolling imperial troops, and a total of 400 people were killed at the south gate.
He wanted to occupy a gate that allowed him to leave before the imperial city changed.
Four hundred people marched all the way to the south city gate at a steady speed. Horse hooves stepped on the thick snow, and soon there was mud all over the ground.
For Linghu Guangming, it is not difficult to occupy a city gate with four hundred forbidden troops, because the four city gates were only guarded by dozens of people in the past.
Looking at everything in front of him, Linghu Guangming suddenly remembered the major event that happened that year, and it was also such a winter day.
A person's name flashed through his mind. For the entire Linghu family, that person was a nightmare. Fortunately, during the Beihai War, that guy ascended during the day.
Otherwise, the current Linghu family would probably have moved out of the imperial city long ago.
Thinking of that scary guy, Linghu Guangming took a deep breath. Even if he beat him to death, he wouldn't believe that the devil-like guy was back.
In his opinion, today's matter may be caused by the Right Prime Minister, the General and others.
After all, how many years has it been since this happened?
Still three hundred feet away from the south city gate, the Imperial Guards took out their weapons and looked ahead warily. The hundreds of people slowed down and slowly moved forward.
The snowflakes in the sky were still falling slowly, and no army as imagined appeared to block their way.
Two hundred feet away from the south city gate, hundreds of forbidden troops still did not encounter any snipers. Linghu Guangming even vaguely saw that the city wall in the wind and snow merged with the snow in the sky.
The entire long street was still quiet, not even a barking dog was heard.
"Woo!" A whining voice sounded.
Just when the army of forbidden troops rushed about a hundred feet away from the city gate, a row of war horses rushing at the front suddenly neighed in pain! The neighing sound only lasted for a moment, and dozens of war horses fell to the ground at the same time!
The heavy body of the war horse fell heavily on the long snow-covered street, splashing a burst of snow mist, which shook the hearts of hundreds of forbidden soldiers.
On the long white street, countless bright red blood flowers bloomed in an instant.
The Imperial Guard on horseback fell heavily to the ground together with the horse beneath him before he could recover.
Before Linghu Guangming could come to his senses and arrange for the imperial army to disperse and prepare for battle, a row of cloaks wrapped in white snow were lifted from under the south city gate wall.
A row of black hand sabers flipped out, and a row of black iron arrows flew mercilessly towards the Imperial Guards who fell on the ground.
From lifting the white cloak, to flipping up the sword, to shooting the iron arrow, it was all done in the blink of an eye, just like he had practiced hundreds of times.
A row of Forbidden Army horses fell to the ground, and while the cavalrymen were killed by crossbows, the quiet South City Gate instantly let out an earth-shattering roar.
Hundreds of white cloaks covered a suit of armor, and the soldiers from White Jade City appeared in the snow and wind in the blink of an eye.
Hundreds of soldiers slapped their swords on the shields in front of them and let out roars that shook the ground.
However, this is just the foreplay for Wang Tianhua and Wu Tian to become the Imperial City's imperial army. You must know that there is a row of powerful weapons behind these soldiers that have not been used.
As a burst of screams rang out in the wind and snow, the large group of forbidden troops led by Linghu Guangming suffered a ruthless blow at this moment.
The dozens of men and horses who rushed in front were shot dead in the wind and snow by the soldiers at the South City Gate.
For a moment, the people on the long street fell on their backs and screamed in agony. Dozens of Forbidden Army soldiers saw their horses falling in the snow and smashing together heavily. The long street was instantly stained red with blood.
In just a few breaths, dozens of people fell down on the long street a hundred feet away from the south city gate.
The war horse that fell to the ground stopped roaring because it had been hit by too many arrows. These innocent war horses lay on the ground next to the bodies of their masters, dying without knowing what had happened to them.
With just one charge, he left this world forever.
This is not a battlefield but the south gate of the imperial city, but the scene at the moment is even more miserable than the battlefield.
Wu Tiancheng looked at Linghu Guangming, who was riding a horse in the distance, and said coldly: "This road is blocked. Those who want to survive should return to their respective military camps!"
Linghu Guangming, who was riding on the horse, was startled and roared: "Who are you? Do you know that this is the Imperial City, and we are the Imperial City's forbidden army? Who dares to block my way?!"
Wang Tianhua, who was standing next to Wu Tiancheng, shook his head and shouted loudly: "Even if the Queen comes in person, she can't pass through the South City Gate. Anyone who dares to step forward will be killed!"
There was a rumble, like thunder in the winter.
Now, not to mention Linghu Guangming, even the centuries-old forbidden army under his command knew that the imperial city was about to change.
Now, who dares to be disrespectful to the Queen?
Apart from the emperor who has not been heard from for a long time, I am afraid that there is only the imperial master who was like a dragon.
For a time, the formation of hundreds of people couldn't help but panic, and some even wanted to sneak away. After all, the people guarding the city gate were also royal soldiers.
Before the truth comes out, no one wants to be someone's cannon fodder like their dead brother.
However, in just a moment, Linghu Guangming shouted loudly and issued an order immediately, stabilizing the imperial army who wanted to retreat.
The Forbidden Army has strict military discipline. After Linghu Guangming gave the order, these Forbidden Army did not dare to retreat any further.
"If you dare to block my way, you are seeking death!"
Linghu Guangming knew that he had no way out, so he led the imperial army to press towards the south city gate. He looked at the frost-covered soldiers in front of him with a stern face, about to give the order to charge.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded above the South City Gate, which had been quiet after shooting a round of iron arrows.
