At this time, Ji Yuanqi, who was sitting in the first place, said slowly: "Elder Demon, this king's plan has been going on for ten years, and it will definitely be accomplished in one battle. As long as you, the demon sect, help this king ascend the throne, , the benefits of your holy religion will never be lost."
Hearing Ji Yuanqi's words, the old man hidden in the black robe laughed strangely.
"With King Qi's words, I can rest assured. The leader of our religion has also given an order. As long as the prince is involved in something, our religion will definitely help with all our strength."
Ji Yuanqi smiled faintly: "Then I would like to thank your leader for this king. When I send out troops, your leader can take action to kill the little emperor."
"When I send troops, the little emperor will definitely respond. At that time, he will definitely send his masters to the frontline battlefield. That is when the protective power around him is weakest, and it is also when you are easiest to succeed."
"Haha, Prince Qi has the same idea as our leader, so I wish you success in advance."
In the room, Ji Yuanqi and the demon sect elder couldn't help laughing.
But far away in the imperial city, after Ji Luochen's order was issued.
The entire imperial city became busy.
I saw a large army gathering outside the gate of the imperial city.
Marshal Chen Zhibao stood on the general stage, flanked on the left and right by Ye Xizhen, one of Xu Xiao's six adopted sons, and Wushuang Gui, one of Liusha's leaders.
Ye Xi's true martial arts strength is not very strong, but he is an absolute wise man with the ability to strategize and win thousands of miles away.
He was also placed in the army as a military advisor.
As for Wushuang Ghost, he was definitely a strong general. Ji Luochen did not let Wushuang Ghost follow Wei Zhuang and others on the assassination mission.
Because the Wushuang Ghost is so suitable for fighting on the battlefield, once the Wushuang Ghost appears on the battlefield, it will definitely be a weapon to attack the city.
I dare not say that one person can defeat ten thousand troops, but it is definitely not much different.
With Wushuang Ghost on the battlefield, he can definitely easily influence the outcome of a local battle.
Even when Chen Zhibao and Ye Xizhen saw Wushuang Ghost for the first time, they couldn't help but sigh that this man was really born to fight on the battlefield.
And under the general stage, at the front are ten thousand snow dragons, each riding a white horse, wearing white armor, holding iron spears, giving people a cold and murderous aura.
Behind the Snow Dragon Cavalry was the imperial city garrison composed of 50,000 soldiers with a solemn appearance.
Every soldier who can be retained to guard the imperial city is an elite, otherwise it would be impossible to stay here.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and several people who looked like generals were escorted over by Cao Zhengchun.
"General Chen, this is the traitor we caught who colluded with Ji Yuanqi. It's up to General Chen how to deal with it."
Chen Zhibao raised his eyes and glanced at the generals, and said calmly: "Sacrifice the flag."
As Chen Zhibao finished speaking, several swordsmen and axemen stepped forward, and without saying a word, they raised their swords and struck them at the generals.
Puff puff! ! !
A burst of blood spurted out, and several headless corpses rolled to the ground.
The blood splattered also dyed the flag red.
The army went out to fight and killed the treacherous ministers and sacrificed the flag. From this, we can see that Chen Zhibao attached great importance to this war.
"Set off."
What Chen Zhibao wanted was military strength and speed. Before Ji Yuanqi could react, he first occupied the county between Qizhou and the imperial city.
Then the battlefield is placed in that county, and the winner is finally determined.
Following Chen Zhibao's order, the 60,000-strong army marched toward the distance in neat steps.
After Chen Zhibao left, the imperial city was under complete martial law. No one could go out or enter. Anyone who dared to intrude would be killed on the spot.
The logistics troops led by Chu Lushan also began to escort the military supplies and chase the former army.
For a time, the entire Imperial City of Zhou Dynasty was filled with a chilling atmosphere.
Just after the army set off, inside the imperial city, there was a civilian room.
A man put the written secret letter into his arms and walked out of the room.
But when the man came to the city gate and saw the closed city gate and the patrolling soldiers, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Oops, how could the imperial city be under martial law so quickly? It seems that it will be difficult to send the news out."
The man did not rush in, but returned to his residence calmly.
It was daytime now, and there was a tight guard in front of the city gate. With his strength, there was no way he could force his way out.
If he was caught, not only would the secret message not be sent out, but his Xiao Ming would also be in danger.
The only plan for now is to wait until night and take advantage of the cover of darkness to see if there is a chance to escape.
As time passed, night came.
Ji Yuanqi's secret agent found several companions and began to study the plan.
"We are looking for opportunities from the four city gates. No matter who succeeds in leaving the city, the news must be sent to the prince as soon as possible. The little emperor has such good eyes and ears and knows the prince's plan to raise troops so quickly. We cannot let the prince be fooled by the little emperor. The emperor took advantage of it, did you all hear it?"
"heard it."
Several other people nodded and said.
Then the person who spoke glanced at the sky outside the window and said in a deep voice: "Okay, it's almost time, we can take action."
Whoosh whoosh! ! !
Several figures flew out from the houses and instantly blended into the night.
These people are all spies placed by Ji Yuanqi in the imperial city in order to control the situation in the imperial city at any time.
At the east gate of the imperial city.
Cao Zhengchun, who was sitting on the city wall, suddenly twitched his ears and couldn't help but sneer.
"Little guy, you clearly know the imperial city's ban, but you dare to go out and wander around this late at night. Aren't you really afraid of losing your head?"
A spy who was carefully groping forward at the base of the city wall was startled when he heard a sound above his head.
However, this person was calm. He raised his head and saw Cao Zhengchun smiling awkwardly.
"My lord, I got lost in the night. I hope that you will not forget the villain's fault and let me go. I will go back now."
After hearing the spy's words, Cao Zhengchun's smiling face couldn't help but have a murderous intention.
"Little guy, it seems that you have really had enough life. Since you are so anxious to die, then our family will help you."
I saw Cao Zhengchun suddenly leaping down from the city wall. While he was in the air, his palms already contained powerful infuriating energy, and he struck it down with one palm.
Facing Cao Zhengchun's tyrannical palm power, the spy felt like a huge mountain was coming in, and he was a little breathless.
But he didn't want to sit still and wait for death, so he couldn't help but pull out the long knife at his waist and slash forward against Cao Zhengchun's palm.
boom! ! !
The long knife exploded into pieces, and the spy was instantly beaten to a pulp by Cao Zhengchun's palm.
"Hmph, a small worm shakes a tree, and you don't overestimate your own capabilities."
After dealing with the spy, Cao Zhengchun flew back to the city wall and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
The same scene as Cao Zhengchun's here, in front of another city gate.
Yuhuatian also noticed the aura of a spy.
However, he didn't talk as much nonsense as Cao Zhengchun. He raised his sword and dropped it. The spy fell into a pool of blood before he had time to react.
West gate.
Zuo Qianhu killed a spy with just a flick of his finger.
South city gate.
Yuan Zuozong dropped a spear and nailed a spy to the ground.
