Steel Dynasty - Chapter 684

[Chapter 683 Crazy]

“These people outside the city are really Xiao Ming’s?”

Ge Yiren asked the housekeeper eagerly in the Ge Mansion in Chang’an City.

“Sir, it’s absolutely true. I heard this from the general who led the army. This cavalryman claimed that he was from Qingzhou when he arrived outside Chang’an City, and took General Niu’s invitation to visit many wealthy families outside the city. Visiting at home,” the steward said.

Ge Yiren had a complicated look on his face when he heard this, and said, “So Tongguan has been lost.”

There were two people beside Ge Yiren, Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang. When they learned that the cavalry appeared outside Chang’an, they came to Ge Yiren. Discuss countermeasures at Yiren’s home.

“Master Ge, King Zhao was defeated in the battle at Juyongguan. The ones who lost in this battle were King Zhao’s elites. King Zhao is now at the end of his strength. Now Xiao Ming’s troops have arrived. This shows that Niuben even defeated Hulao Pass. He Tongguan, if we still sit back and wait for Niu Ben to take Chang’an, we will be guilty of surrendering to the enemy and betraying our country.” Yu Zhiyong was a little worried.

Ni Kuang said: “That’s right, not to mention that King Zhao is crazy. He sacked Luoyang and drove the people into Zhao land. Now he also has such thoughts about Chang’an. Mr. Ge, this Chang’an is the foundation of our great clan. I can’t help but lose you.” It’s a lost dog,” Ni Kuang said.

Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang were anxious, but Ge Yiren was not anxious at all, because he had already sent a secret message to Niu Ben during the battle of Juyongguan.

But this was not enough for him. If he wanted to integrate into Xiao Ming’s court in the future, he had to do it with merit, so he said: “I understand what you two are thinking. King Zhao is unethical and has made the world angry and resentful. How can we have such a tyrant?” If you continue to serve him, you will join forces with the current emperor to attack him.”

Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang suddenly became excited. This was the first time that Ge Yiren directly expressed his intention to deal with King Zhao.

Ge Yiren glanced at the two of them and continued: “Without further ado, we are now mobilizing the tribes of our families and contacting the clansmen in the Forbidden Army to start an uprising.”

“Master Ge, if this is the case, we will go back to make preparations. “The two of them cupped their hands and turned to leave.

After watching the two people leave, Ge Yiren said to the housekeeper: “You should immediately focus on the troops who have sneaked into the city and let them wait for my order to open the city gate at any time.”

“Yes, sir.” The housekeeper looked solemn, these troops were their If the person arranged by the Ge family in the city is exposed, the Ge family will have no way out.

While the officials were looking for their own way out, news of the cavalry also reached King Zhao’s ears, which shocked King Zhao.

“Tongguan was lost! Why didn’t Sun Lirong send anyone to send news?” King Zhao paced back and forth, and the sudden appearance of this cavalry completely broke his plan.

Zhao Yuanliang said: “Father, I’m afraid this Sun Lirong will either surrender or die.”

“No one will be useful at the critical moment.”

King Zhao knocked the memorial in front of him to the ground. He had experienced this in the past two years. The feeling of having power.

But now all this will leave him, and he is really unwilling to do so.

Xiao Ming’s cavalry is now outside the city, and the musketeers will arrive one after another. There is no way he can win against the more than 200,000 coalition troops.

But it is too late for him to evacuate Chang’an now. There are no more than 30,000 trustworthy soldiers in Chang’an.

This number of soldiers is obviously no match for this cavalry.

Zhao Yuanliang was thinking about the same problem. He said, “Father, retreat. If you don’t leave, it will be too late.”

King Zhao has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is much calmer than Zhao Yuanliang. Now in this situation, the only way to fight is to fight to the death. They have no chance. There is no escape.

He believed that those who had knelt before him were now sharpening their knives and preparing to attack him. A trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes, and he said to Zhao Yuanliang: “There is no escape, but I will not leave Xiao Ming a prosperous Chang’an.” , you immediately mobilize the army to massacre the city.”

“Massacre the city!” Zhao Yuanliang was horrified, he said in disbelief; “Father, this…”

“Yuanliang, Xiao Ming will not let us go, our Zhao country will. Destroyed.” There was a hint of desolation in King Zhao’s voice.

Zhao Yuan’s conscience was filled with sadness. He had been so prosperous in the past two years, with countless gold and silver treasures, and endless beauties, but now all of this was about to be taken away.

Like King Zhao, in despair, crazy thoughts suddenly surged in Zhao Yuanliang’s conscience, “Xiao Ming, what you will get is just a piece of scorched earth.”

Zhao Yuanliang nodded heavily, turned and left, and then, suddenly, in the palace A shrill scream.

At this moment, King Zhao’s imperial guards changed from the protectors of the palace to the destroyers. After receiving the order, the imperial guards raised their butcher knives towards the eunuchs and maids in the palace.

The once beautiful and peaceful palace suddenly turned into a Shura hell, and the soldiers burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil.

At the same time, another group of forbidden troops entered the city. They raised their butcher knives at the people and killed some officials and people on sight.

Whenever a house was massacred, they would set it on fire, and for a while the city of Chang’an was filled with beacon smoke.

The atrocities committed by Zhao Jun quickly spread in the city. The people and officials in Chang’an City were frightened and fled in all directions, but some officials remained very calm.

They immediately gathered the troops in the city, distributed weapons and armor to them, and headed directly for the city gate.

Now the only thing that can stop King Zhao is the army outside the city.

The strange things in Chang’an City also attracted the attention of Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu. The rising smoke made them very confused.

“What’s going on?” Qi Guangyi asked.

At this time, eight thousand wealthy tribes had gathered around them, and these tribes were all supported by the wealthy tribes outside the city.

Just as Niu Ben said, when they arrived outside Chang’an City, these wealthy families were very knowledgeable and accepted their request to jointly attack King Zhao.

Bai Mu said: “The smoke is coming one after another. I’m afraid there is a big problem in Chang’an City.” Qi Guangyi

rolled his eyes and said: “Is it possible that the wealthy tribes in the city started fighting with King Zhao first?”

“Probably not, there is a war. It’s a war, but it looks like they are burning down the house. Could it be that King Zhao is massacring the city?” Bai Mu exclaimed.

Qi Guangyi just thought of this, and he said: “It is very possible that King Zhao has always been sinister, and he can do this.”

After a pause, he said: “We can’t wait any longer. If we wait any longer, Chang’an City will probably become a city.” It’s in ruins.”

Bai Mu looked at the army composed of wealthy children. At this time, a wealthy family member said: “Two generals, don’t worry, my family leader has already ambushed his troops in the city, and they will definitely open the city gate to meet us this time.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a hunting cavalry suddenly came up on horseback and said, “General Qi, the north gate of Chang’an is open.”

Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu were overjoyed and immediately led the cavalry towards Chang’an City. This was a great opportunity to make a contribution.
