at this time.
"Dong dong dong..."
The war drums in the city were beating more and more urgently.
The black-armored cavalry rushed to a stone's throw away from the city before reining in their reins. With their weapons in hand, they shouted sternly: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
at the same time.
The sound of killing echoed throughout the city also came from outside several other city walls: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The sound of killing is deafening and enlightening.
The killing intent is boundless.
At this time.
Sima Jian walked to Xia Tian with bloodstains all over his body, looked at Xia Tian with a complex expression and said: "Sima Jian meets His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"The Prime Minister is exempt from the courtesy!"
Xia Tian smiled gently: "Thank you for your hard work in fighting the bloody battle!"
"I dare not tell you how hard it is. Putting down the rebellion is the responsibility of the right minister of the court, the old minister!"
Speaking of this, Sima Jianyu said with deep meaning: "The prince's strategizing and decisive victory in the chaotic battle in the imperial city really makes me admire him!"
Suddenly, Xia Tian wanted to ask: "What do you think of the black dragon emerging from the moat on the left?"
"Is it wild? Or is it being fed by someone?"
Li Jian also looked at Sima Jian with sharp eyes!
For no reason, the atmosphere on the city began to become tense.
"I think someone is feeding me!"
Sima Jian replied with a serious face: "I feel that the black dragon is like your Majesty's black python. Someone must be secretly feeding it in the moat!"
"Yeah?"
Xia Tian was noncommittal: "Who does Zuo Xiang think is the person who feeds the black dragon?"
"I don't dare to make wild guesses!"
"His Royal Highness is as wise as a saint, and he will definitely be able to find out!"
"Hehehe..."
Xia Tian smiled meaningfully: "After the black dragon appeared, where the golden light appeared in the moat... a mysterious coffin appeared!"
"What?"
Sima Jian's shock was beyond words: "Whose coffin?"
"I don't know!"
Xia Tian tentatively asked: "Do you think that in the coffin... could be the corpse of an ancient saint?"
Sima Jian answered very seriously: "Your Highness, do you want me to send someone to fish it out now?"
"Need not!"
Xia Tian stopped trying: "My father didn't send anyone to salvage that coffin. I guess it must have a deep meaning, so I won't do it for you!"
"yes!"
Sima Jian then pointed at the army below the city and said: "Your Highness, the second prince Xia Sheng, the third prince Xia Zong, and the fifth prince Xia Feng have led their troops to surround the imperial capital... It seems that the attackers are evil!"
"Hey hey hey..."
Taiwei Li Jian started teasingly: "Master Zuo Xiang, you seem to have come with bad intentions!"
The atmosphere on the top of the city relaxed!
"Lord Lieutenant, we are facing a formidable enemy. Be more serious!"
Sima Jian said seriously: "Do you have any strategy to retreat from the enemy?"
"have!"
Li Jian patted his chest and said, "The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince are not qualified to lead an army in a war. Although they have many people, they are nothing like chickens or waggots!"
"As long as His Highness the Crown Prince gives the order, I will immediately lead my troops out of the city and kill them all without leaving a single piece of armor behind!"
"Catch all the princes back and kneel down to apologize!"
Sima Jian: "..."
"Can you lead an army to block ten with one?"
"Of course!"
"This captain has fought all his life and has never been defeated!"
Having said this, Li Jian stared straight into Sima Jian's eyes and said in a serious tone: "Even if the 300,000 troops in the city belong to you Sima Jian, as long as the prince gives an order, I can capture you and plead guilty!"
Sima Jian's eyes did not dodge, and he pointed to the city: "Lord Taiwei, what is under the city is not the true identity. It is the three princes who led 300,000 soldiers and horses to surround the imperial capital. If you can capture them and plead guilty, the true identity will be presented to the court for you. Please take credit!”
"alright!"
Xia Tian saw a commotion among the cavalry under the city. They separated in the middle and gave way to a path. He knew that someone was about to come out: "Someone under the city came out to speak!"
Li Jian and Sima Jian stopped talking. They stood beside Xia Tian and watched a general in golden armor riding a tall war horse under the city. He walked out of the cavalry very coquettishly, followed by a group of guards!
At this time.
The war drums stopped, and the army under the city was silent!
A sharp voice sounded below the city, like a castrated chicken: "People on the city, listen, the third prince heard that there was a rebellion in the imperial capital, so he led his army from the fiefdom to rescue him and put down the rebellion. The guard above will open the city gate quickly!"
"If the city gate is opened and the Third Prince succeeds in rescuing him, you will have a share of the credit and will be given great wealth to you, making you noble for generations to come!"
After saying that, the father-in-law who called out narrowed his eyes and threatened: "If you don't open the city gate, you will definitely be rebels. When the army breaks through the city, you will die!"
"So, all the officers and men in the city must listen carefully... If you open the door, you will be rich. If you don't open the door, your whole family will die. Choose?"
As soon as the voice fell, the slutty golden-armored general below the city raised his eyes to see the reaction from the city!
From his angle, he couldn't see everyone in Xia Tian at all!
At this time, there was silence in the city, and there was no response from him!
Only in the city are there still shouts of killing!
That’s the summer schedule!
There was silence for a moment both above and below the city.
The golden-armored general shouted impatiently: "I count to three. If I don't open the city gate, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
On the top of the city, the "main focus" is still quiet!
At this time.
Under the city.
A wooden wheel cart was pushed out, and sitting on it was a middle-aged man holding a feather fan, wearing a shirt, and an elegant face.
At first glance, Duan is a romantic figure!
At first glance, it looks very extraordinary: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry. Give the defenders on the city half a stick of incense time to think!"
"They need time to think about it!"
"good!"
The third prince, Xia Zong, stared at the city with an arrogant face and said, "I listen to the military advisor!"
"Generals on the top of the city, listen, I will give you half a stick of incense before you die!"
"The whole family, the whole clan will die!"
This is a death threat!
"Cough cough cough..."
The military advisor coughed a few times and reassured: "Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry. According to the secret report half a day ago, the rebels already have an absolute advantage in the city. As long as you give them a little more time, the rebels from various wealthy families will take over for you." Kill the emperor, and when the time comes, we will enter the city in the name of suppressing the rebellion, kill the rebels and become emperor!"
Xia Zong frowned: "Lao Er and Lao Wu think so too, right?"
"Jiejiejie..."
The military advisor suddenly changed his face, his elegance was gone, and he had a twisted and sinister smile on his face: "Then let's see who is more powerful!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Zongheng Tianxia is here, you are the emperor!"
"Then leave everything to the military advisor!"
The third prince obeyed the advice of the military advisor Zongheng Tianxia.
He looked at the city wall and murmured: "Lao Jiu, are you dead?"
"Of course he's dead!"
Military advisor Zong Heng Tianxia said with determination: "He is just a puppet used by the emperor and Zhang Shu. No matter which side wins, he will be the first to be killed!"
"Do not worry!"
"Perhaps the prince can see his head when he enters the city!"
at this time.
"boom......."
The suspension bridge on the city wall fell heavily to the ground.
"Squeak...."
The city gate opened quietly.
However, there was still silence both above and below the city!
It seems very weird!
Looking at the dark city gate, the third prince frowned: "Commander, what do you think?"
"Will there be an ambush?"
