"Father! Twenty miles ahead is the main force of the Nanpu Navy. As long as we capture the Nanpu Navy, Wu Zhu will no longer be able to stop us!"
Mu Lin said excitedly: "At that time, my father will only need to accept the Fujian and Yue officials and read out the Emperor of Qin's edict in public. I believe those Fujian and Yue officials will be aware of current affairs!"
"good!"
Mu Kui was overjoyed: "I have been waiting for this moment for a long time, here comes someone! First, order the navy to get into position immediately and prepare for battle. Second, notify the general in the city, Jun Hu, and ask him to cooperate with us inside and outside!"
"As you command!"
"Report! The enemy ship has approached our army ten miles away!"
"Explore again!"
"Report! The enemy ship has approached our army within five miles!"
"Give me the order!"
Mu Kui suddenly shouted loudly and said loudly: "General, return to your position and prepare to fight!"
A burst of war drums suddenly sounded, and the well-equipped Fujian-Vietnam fleet was full of people coming and going, and artillery pieces were in their positions, just waiting to give the enemy a head-on blow.
At this moment, a fire suddenly lit up in front, followed by a hurried exclamation: "Report! The enemy is moving down the river and releasing a large number of fire ships!"
"What?"
Mu Kui was shocked and secretly thought that Wu Zhu had indeed been prepared for it. He wanted to give himself a prestige!
Needless to say, this move is really poisonous. If these fire ships are allowed to attack, they will definitely suffer heavy losses.
Not daring to be negligent, Mu Kui quickly asked Mu Lin, "Mu Lin, can you use artillery to attack those fire ships?"
Mu Lin thought for a while and said: "It's possible, but it's a bit overkill. I've prepared a trebuchet, which can launch stone bullets to sink fire ships!"
"Very good!"
Mu Kui was so excited that he punched the air hard: "Then give them some color to see!"
Soon, the former army fleet received orders to attack the fireships with trebuchets.
"put!"
Hundreds of stone bullets roared out of the air.
At a distance of four to five hundred steps, stone bullets arrived in an instant.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The rain-like stone bullets fell into the water and splashed countless waves, causing the fire boats going down the river to stagger and collide with each other.
Some were directly knocked over by stone bullets, while others were extinguished by water waves.
For a time, the waves of Nanpu River surged and roared continuously. From time to time, the light of fire disappeared, and then countless pieces of wood splattered.
"Report——!"
The sentry on the lookout shouted excitedly: "The fire ships are still one hundred and fifty steps away from our fleet, and there are less than sixty ships!"
Mu Kui frowned and turned to look at Mu Lin.
Mu Lin said nothing and shouted directly: "Don't panic! Give me the order, use the hook and sickle to resist, fight and retreat, keep a distance, and after all the fire ships are sunk, quickly counterattack!"
"yes!"
With the drums of war thundering, orders were quickly conveyed.
It took about an hour for those fireships to be sunk by the entire army.
"Ouch——!"
Excited cheers erupted above the Mulin fleet.
Mu Kui's heart, which he had been holding on to, finally let it go.
Without the support of Zhao Hao, it might be difficult for him to have such an opportunity. Let alone rebel against Wu Zhu, it would be even more difficult to deal with the army loyal to Wu Zhu.
"Send my order and the whole army will attack!"
Mu Kui yelled viciously: "Kill!"
Soon, a large number of Fujian and Yue warriors who followed the Mu family gestured with the Qin weapons in their hands and headed towards the Nanpu navy.
"Report! General Zhou, our gunships did not have any impact on the enemy. They didn't even use their artillery!"
On the Nanpu navy fleet, a sentry anxiously reported to the general below.
"What? The other side doesn't even use artillery?"
The general of Puhui Army in Fujian and Vietnam was full of surprise.
Originally, they wanted to use those fireships to consume the enemy's artillery, but they didn't expect that the other side destroyed more than a hundred fireships without even using artillery. This is incredible.
But, what is going on?
Before the generals could react, a sentry showed a horrified expression and shouted: "General Zhou, the enemy has already come to kill us!"
Zhou Fu suddenly woke up, and suddenly pulled out his sword with all his strength, and shouted loudly: "Brave sons, the traitor Mu Kui betrayed my king at the moment of life and death in Minyue. It is extremely shameless. We must protect our king." This is the last line of defense!”
"good!"
Previously, Mukui had brought the imperial edict from the Emperor of Qin to persuade Zhou Fu, but was directly rejected by Zhou Fu. Now he brought the Nanpu navy to stop Mukui, and he obviously knew the situation in the capital.
But he never believed that Wu Zhu would take action against his princess.
Because the princess is his cousin.
It didn't take long for the fleets of both sides to reach within 500 steps at a very fast speed. .
Mu Lin shouted: "Prepare the artillery! Give them some color!"
"yes!"
"Dong dong dong dong."
The sound of drums ready to fire suddenly sounded.
Mu Lin yelled: "Fire!"
Countless Hei Qiuqiu's shells, as if they were free of charge, went straight to Zhou Fu's fleet, drawing beautiful arcs.
"Ouch!"
The Mu family sailors who followed Mu Lin couldn't help themselves with excitement. They had always been beaten like this by the Qin army before. They didn't expect that one day they would use Qin army's weapons to beat others. This feeling was so good.
"Boom!"
As an explosion sounded, several warships in Zhou Fu's fleet were directly sunk in an instant.
For a moment, the Fujian-Vietnam navy was caught off guard and was bombarded by artillery. They screamed and scurried around the ship. Many people even screamed and were hit by artillery. Their bodies were not found. What's worse, some people squeezed into the water out of fear. .
In the blink of an eye, the Fujian-Vietnam Navy was beaten to pieces before formally meeting Mu Kui's army.
The undercurrent in the capital of Fujian and Yue became more and more intense.
The civil strife in Fujian and Yue caused by Wu Zhu's sudden death of his princess and Fang Hu's prediction that Wu Zhu would attack him was ongoing fiercely.
"Fang Hu! I treat you well, why did you betray me!"
Wu Zhu stood on the wall of the palace gate, his eyes full of anger, like an army with bristling hair, and asked Fang Hu in a low voice.
Fang Hu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he smiled disapprovingly and said: "There is an old saying in the Central Plains that good birds choose trees to roost. The king is determined to go his own way and wants to fight the Qin army to the death. He ignores the soldiers and civilians of Fujian and Yue. He is no longer the king we love. !”
"snort!"
Wu Zhu coldly snorted and looked at Fang Hu, the anger in his eyes seemed to engulf Fang Hu, gritted his teeth and said: "When Mu Kui suggested that the king surrender to the Qin Dynasty, you repeatedly opposed the king's resistance to the Qin Dynasty. , have you been preparing to collude with him for a long time and plot evil?"
"Doctor Mu was devoted to the good of the country and mediating with the Qin people. How did the king treat him? If it weren't for my foresight, the king would have slaughtered all the Mu family tonight, right?"
"What evidence do you have to prove that this king will kill all the Mu family?"
"Doesn't the king know about the relationship between the princess's family and the Mu family? Will the king let the Mu family go if he arrests people from the princess's family?"
Fang Hu sneered and said: "Your Majesty, don't be pretentious here. Doctor Mu has been crowned king by the Emperor of Qin. He is my new king of Fujian and Yue!"
"What!?"
Hearing this, Wu Zhu was shocked, and everyone around him was stunned.
The Emperor of Qin actually made Mukui king?
While Wu Zhu was extremely shocked, he quickly restrained his anger and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean by these words?"
Fang Hu glanced at Wu Zhu and said coldly: "It's useless to talk more, just be honest and let's catch him!"
"Only with your little strength?"
Wu Zhu said something disdainfully, and immediately shouted: "Come out and kill!"
"Kill!"
Tens of thousands of palace guards violently attacked the palace gate.
Fang Hu's expression changed, and he was about to give an order to defend the palace gate to the death.
At this moment, there was a shout from behind.
Mu Kui and Mu Lin led tens of thousands of troops, shouting, "The new king has an order, and those who surrender will not be killed." When they saw a large-scale battle circle, they rushed over to quickly solve it.
Mu Lin, on the other hand, relied on his cavalry to quickly open a bloody path and rush towards the palace.
Finally, he saw the big flag on Fang Hu's side and the guards who had just broken through the palace gate.
As far as the current situation is concerned, although the entire royal capital is littered with corpses, and those who are still fighting bloody battles are basically small forces, the main forces in the capital are gathered in the palace.
In other words, the most powerful escort force in Fujian and Vietnam had no losses at all.
So much so that when Mu Lin rushed to the palace, Wu Zhu still acted very calm.
"Hush!"
Mu Lin reined in his horse in front of Fang Hu, frowned and looked at Wu Zhu, then looked at Fang Hu: "General Fang, thanks to your cooperation, we can enter the city smoothly!"
"Are you Mu Lin?"
Fang Hu looked at Mu Lin with some surprise.
"Exactly!"
Mu Lin smiled and nodded: "My father is behind and will be there soon!"
"So, the Nanpu navy has been destroyed by you?"
"That's right! The whole army was wiped out!"
"Hahahaha!" Fang Hu laughed loudly, as if the overall situation was decided.
Wu Zhu's face turned pale instantly and he wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.
The Nanpu Navy was the last line of defense for Fujian and Vietnam. Now that the Nanpu Navy has been destroyed, it shows that the Qin army has marched in.
Damn it!
Damn Mu Kui! How dare you lie to me!
If I had known this, I shouldn't have sent him to Qin camp!
Although he didn't know why Mu Kui was made king by the Emperor of Qin, if he hadn't sent him to the Qin camp, it would definitely not have happened.
He regretted it very much at this time, but there was nothing he could do about it.
After a moment of silence, Wu Zhu calmed down his emotions, calmed down his mind, and stared coldly at Mu Lin below.
"Mu Lin, do you still remember me?"
Faced with Wu Zhu's cold question, Mu Lin was stunned for a moment, then looked at Wu Zhu with a gloomy face and gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "Thanks to the king, Yin Hua will leave me!"
"Hahaha!"
Wu Zhu raised his head and laughed, then turned his back to Mu Lin: "You want me to surrender. I can surrender, but do you dare to come and see me?"
"Who says we want you to surrender, we"
"Okay! We'll come to meet the king right away!"
Before Mu Lin could finish speaking, Mu Kui's voice came from behind.
"Father!"
Mu Lin shouted and turned to look.
I saw Mu Kui slowly approaching with his army, and his momentum instantly overshadowed everyone present.
"For the sake of the soldiers and people of Minyue, and for the centuries-old foundation of Minyue, why don't we dare?" Mu Kui smiled faintly, quietly looking up at Wu Zhu's back: "Your Majesty will always be our Majesty!"
His words were obviously meant for all Fujian and Yue officials.
After all, Wu Zhu was the recognized king of Minyue. Even if he made mistakes, he could not die in the hands of his Minyue minister.
Otherwise, the Fujian and Yue officials would definitely not recognize him as the new king who had committed regicide and seized the throne.
Therefore, the best way is to force Wuzhu to surrender and let the Qin people kill Wuzhu, so that he can win the hearts of the people of Minyue and sit on the throne of Minyue.
As if he had seen through Mu Kui's ulterior motives, Wu Zhu didn't even bother to turn around, and just said coldly: "Prime Minister Ji, pass this king's order to let the father and son enter the palace. Anyone who dares to be rude to them will be killed without mercy." !”
"Your Majesty!"
Wu Zhu interrupted Ji Su impatiently: "I have made up my mind, let them come in!"
After that, he walked straight back to his palace.
"this"
Ji Su looked hesitant, but finally bit his teeth and retreated as ordered.
Not long after, Mu Kui and Mu Lin arrived at the Minyue Palace.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar Minyue Palace, the father and son smiled at each other and walked straight in without saying much.
Wu Zhu was a very strong Yue man, but his body covered in blood but in a miserable state, and his messy hair style still proved that he didn't look that brave at this moment.
Seeing Mu Kui walking into the hall step by step, Wu Zhu immediately snorted and said majestically:
"You actually have the nerve to come see me? Do you know what you are doing? You trash! Trash! Dirty stinky monkey!"
Mu Kui clenched his right hand so tightly that his nails almost pierced into his flesh.
But he said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Your Majesty, I am a waste, it is my fault. But I did not want to betray Minyue!
I am a Yue person, both in life and in death! "
Wu Zhu angrily threw the bronze cup at Mukui, hitting him directly on the head.
The donated blood flowed out instantly, covering his cheeks with a layer of rich blood.
"Father!"
Mu Lin roared and was about to rush forward to kill Wu Zhu.
At this moment, Mu Kui stopped him and shouted: "Don't be rude to the king!"
"Ah!"
Wu Zhu sneered, still not very satisfied, and cursed: "Do you think I don't know your hatred for me? But why do I keep you here? Because you are a waste!
You wanted to avenge your mother. You should have killed my father long ago, but you didn't!
I have been thinking, what ability do you have to rebel against me?
Unexpectedly, you actually colluded with the Qin people. You are really a waste among wastes! "
When Mu Kui heard this, he said calmly: "The trend of Fujian and Vietnam is over, and the only way to resist is to die. I know you will fail, why not go with the trend?"
"Then you shouldn't collude with the Qin people!"
Wu Zhu lay back on the throne with a sigh, panting heavily, and asked slowly: "Is Ying Luo okay in the Qin camp? Did Zhao Hao make things difficult for her?"
The reason why he asked this was not to really care about Ying Luo, but to know Ying Luo's status in Zhao Hao's heart.
If Zhao Hao likes Ying Luo, he can use Ying Luo's relationship to pretend to surrender to Da Qin, and then use Zhao Hao to kill Mu Kui and his son to regain the power of Fujian Province.
He believed that he would give more to Da Qin than what Mu Kui and his son gave to Da Qin.
However, Mu Kui did not answer his question, but said calmly: "I don't know if the young master has made things difficult for the princess. It's just that the poison on the princess surprised me."
"Haha, it seems you know!"
"I didn't expect that the king would do this to his sister." Mu Kui narrowed his eyes.
"Hmph!" Wu Zhu snorted disdainfully and said, "You don't even care about the death of your own daughter, so what qualifications do you have to talk about how I treat my sister? Just take me to see Zhao Hao Hao."
Mu Kui raised his head suddenly, his pupils shrinking suddenly.
He saw a poisonous arrow stuck in Wuzhu's neck.
Wu Zhu looked forward with disbelief on his face and covered his neck feebly.
But the donated blood still flowed happily from the gaps between his fingertips, from bright red, to dark red, to smelly black.
In just a moment, his eyes were covered with a layer of gray, and the vitality quickly drained from his body.
It was obvious that he would not survive.
"So and so did it."
Mu Kui's face was full of horror, and he subconsciously looked at Mu Lin, who was also full of surprise.
What's even more strange is that Wu Zhu's guards still stood there, motionless, as if they hadn't seen it.
It was as if everything that had just happened had never happened, as if the only ones who were crazy were their father and son.
"Ah! My great king! What's wrong with you! What's wrong with you!"
At this moment, a shrill shout and footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.
