Under no talent, is a world famous general

Chapter 411 Zhanjing Falls!

Prospecting Dynasty, Zhanjing.

At the gate of the city, many merchants and merchants waiting to enter the city lined up in a long line, basking in the morning sun, communicating with each other one after another, rather lazy.

On the city wall, the soldiers standing guard were all slack, leaning against the parapet, some of them were still yawning, as if they were still awake.

Zhanjing is located in the hinterland of Linzhan, surrounded by the four major military towns, plus hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops guarding it, it can be said to be the safest place in the world.

Therefore, many soldiers came to stand guard without vigilance, but it was just a formality.

Whenever they are on duty to guard the city, in order to cope with this boring task, the soldiers will gossip and gossip, such as who is in the brothel, slept with a girl who is so tender that she can pinch water, and who is gambling in the west of the city. Lost all the money lost...

Just as they were chatting about the boss's love history, they suddenly heard a strange sound coming from a distance.

It's like... the sound of drums!
The soldiers were slightly startled, and quickly raised their heads, and saw smoke billowing in the distance, like a yellow dragon, filling the air.

In the thick smoke, one can vaguely see, there are one after another flags, hidden or visible!
Thinking of a possibility, the soldiers were horrified and their faces darkened!

"Enemy attack!" A hundred households were horrified, and hurriedly shouted, "Beat the drum for warning!"

The soldiers hurried to the war drum, picked up the drumsticks, and beat them frantically!
"Boom boom boom!"

The heavy drum sound suddenly resounded around.

Under the city gate, many Li Shu heard footsteps behind them, looked suspiciously, and saw banners fluttering in the wind in the distance.

Under the banner, there are soldiers dressed in armor with hostile eyes.

Seeing this scene, many Li Shu didn't understand why there were so many armored soldiers rushing towards Zhanjing, but when they heard the sound of war drums and saw the panicked soldiers on the city wall, they immediately understood... The enemy is coming !
Like a frying pan, everyone was terrified, screaming and rushing towards the city gate.

In an instant, the city gate was squeezed so tight that it was difficult to get in and out, but everyone was extremely horrified, and still squeezed desperately, so that it was completely blocked.

On the top of the city, hundreds of households shouted anxiously, "Quickly pull the suspension bridge and close the city gate!"

In the gate tower, upon hearing the command, the guards began to pull the rope with all their strength, and the suspension bridge rose slowly.

"Don't pull the suspension bridge, we're going into the city!" some people hissed and howled.

If the suspension bridge is not pulled up, the entire Zhanjing will be destroyed when the enemy soldiers enter the city. Therefore, the soldiers are cruel and keep pulling up the suspension bridge.

The suspension bridge was erected slowly, and many people crowded on the suspension bridge were suddenly shocked, and could only escape and jumped to the ground, leaving the suspension bridge.

Seven or eight soldiers in the city worked together to slowly close the city gate.

But the enemy soldiers were getting closer and closer, and the people crowded at the city gate were full of fear and could only flee in all directions.

The black-armored soldiers who came in the formation had no interest in these Li Shu, and all held long knives, staring at the city wall of Zhanjing.

The entire army formation contained a strong murderous aura!
Many soldiers had already learned from Shangfeng that the Empress was kidnapped by Prime Minister Wu and Marquis Ding Jun. In order to eradicate these two traitors, King Mu had no choice but to lead his troops to revolt, only on the side of the Qing Emperor.

As a result, they were full of anger, wishing they could immediately capture the two thieves and execute them on the spot!

In the city, [-] spy guards came galloping on horseback. When they saw the city gate closed from a distance, they couldn't help being surprised. They quickly stopped their horses and sent people to inquire.

Frightened, the spy guards got off their horses and galloped up the city wall, only to see that outside the city, there were indeed rows of troops ready to go.

Discovering that the opponent's armor was in the form of the imperial army, hundreds of households were shocked, and immediately understood that the imperial army rebelled!
He said anxiously, "Hurry up, send someone back to the palace and inform His Majesty about this! The others immediately go up to the city wall and help defend the city!"

Originally, their task was to go out of the city, go to Prince Jing's manor, and look for the trace of Prime Minister Wu.

But now, the enemy soldiers are besieging and Zhanjing is in danger, so we can only defend Zhanjing first.

It can be seen that there are nearly [-] enemy soldiers, but only a few thousand guards at the top of the city. This gap makes Baihu's heart sink.

However, if Zhanjing falls, the safety of the people in the city and His Majesty will be greatly threatened. Therefore, even if it is death, the enemy soldiers cannot be allowed to step into Zhanjing!
Thinking of this, many spy guards tightened their long knives and crossbows, their faces full of determination!

Outside the city, in the army formation, King Mu was dressed in golden armor, his face was full of sternness, and his already dark face became even darker.

He squinted his eyes, staring at the city wall of Zhanjing, and remained silent.

At this moment, he has commanded 12 soldiers and horses to besiege Zhanjing on all sides, in order to block Zhanjing to prevent the empress from escaping.

In order to win the throne smoothly, he has ordered his confidant guards to behead the empress when they see her.

Afterwards, he will take advantage of the opportunity to ascend the throne and become emperor if he looks forward to seeing no master!
Now, when Nei Ying takes action and there is a commotion in the city, it is his chance to lead his troops to attack the city!
In the city, when the people heard the news, they were terrified and fled home. The doors of many restaurants and shops were closed, and the bustling streets in the past became extremely empty.

At the top of the city, the spy guards and the city gate guards were nervously making preparations for defending the city, such as carrying arrows, stacking them in a pile, preparing rolling logs and stones, and sending fire fuel.

As the capital of a dynasty, Zhanjing has not faced the flames of war for a long time, and the military supplies have not been used for a long time. Now it will take a lot of time to reopen.

Just as many guards were preparing hastily, suddenly a group of people came straight to the city wall.

A guard saw it and quickly shouted, "Who is coming, stop immediately!"

People kept coming, raised the military crossbow in their hands, and shot towards the top of the city.

Some of the guards fell to the ground with arrows, and someone shouted anxiously, "There are traitors!"

The people rushed to the top of the city while shooting, and fought with many guards.

In the army formation, seeing the chaos at the top of the city, King Mu immediately knew that the time had come.

He narrowed his eyes suddenly and shouted loudly, "Siege!"

Immediately, the war drums rang, and the soldiers of the forbidden army rushed towards the city wall.

On the top of the city, the guards were held back by the internal response, and they couldn't withdraw to deal with the incoming enemy. Only a few guards kept shooting arrows, but it didn't play a big role.

In a short while, the soldiers of the imperial army rushed forward without paying much damage, using a simple wooden bridge, erected on the moat, crossed the turbulent river, came to the foot of the city wall, set up a ladder, and began to climb quickly.

At this time, the guards at the top of the city gradually repelled the internal response and began to block the enemy soldiers under the city.

But at this moment, it was already too late, many guard soldiers climbed up the city wall like wolves and tigers, and started a bloody battle with the guards.

More and more enemy soldiers climbed to the top of the city. The city gate guards and spy guards were outnumbered, and they were beaten back and forth. In an instant, the top of the city had fallen.

The soldiers of the imperial guards began to rush down to seize control of the city gate.

Although they continued to fight back desperately, there were too few guards and the casualties increased sharply, so they could only retreat steadily and watch the city gate fall.

Amidst the loud noise, the gate of the city was opened by the imperial army, and the suspension bridge was lowered. The tens of thousands of soldiers waiting outside the city rushed into Zhanjing, cheering and cheering.

Under the protection of his confidant guards, King Mu rode his horse and galloped into this very familiar city.

But at this moment, his mood is very different.

It's as if he has been connected with this city, he can feel that this city has surrendered under his feet, waiting for his rule!
He will become Zhanjing's emperor!
Full of joy in his heart, King Mu led his guards and walked along the official road, ignoring the battle groups around him.

Many Zhanjing guards had been beaten by the soldiers of the imperial army and shrunk in the lanes. They fell into a disadvantage, and no matter how hard it was to turn the tables, they could not hurt him at all.

But just as King Mu passed by the houses along the official road, he heard a scolding sound from the houses in the distance, "Rebellious ministers, thieves, wolf-hearted people, Your Majesty trusts you so much, you actually rebelled, go Afterwards, you will fall into hell, and you will never be reborn forever!"

King Mu, who was full of joy, felt a chill in his heart when he heard about it.

He turned his head and looked into the distance, and saw a man behind the window in a private house, his face flushed, showing panic and anger.

This scolding came from him.

King Mu laughed back angrily, pointed at the other party, and said extremely coldly, "This man will slaughter his whole family!"

The guards behind him rushed out several people and rushed towards the mansion.

After sweeping his gaze, he saw the windows of several nearby buildings, and there were some common people looking over in fear. King Mu said coldly, "These people are all killed too!"

Anyone who hears this sentence must die!
Some confidant guards rushed forward with knives and broke into the house. After a while, there were horrifying howls and screams.

Then, the sound slowly stopped.

King Mu snorted coldly, as if he had just ordered the slaughter of chickens and ducks just now, his expression did not change at all, he was about to lead the crowd to move on, when suddenly someone came to report, "My lord, I am leading the crowd to besiege, suddenly a group of imperial guards rushed in Spy Guard, rescued Wan Ting who was seriously injured!"

King Mu was furious, he drew his knife quickly, and swung it across, the head of the person who came to report was thrown high.

"Trash, you can't even kill a person!" Angrily scolded, King Mu shouted, "Hong Guang!"

A general in armor behind him rushed forward immediately, with a flattering expression on his face, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

Hearing the word Your Majesty, King Mu couldn't help showing a hint of joy on his angry face. He glanced at Situ Hongguang and said with a half-smile, "You are very good at talking."

Situ Hongguang quickly flattered him and said, "Your Majesty is expected by everyone, and the last general is just telling the truth. It is a great blessing to be able to serve His Majesty!"

King Mu nodded, and said in a deep voice, "You immediately lead ten thousand soldiers to pursue Wan Ting, but you can't let this guy run away!"

As a military minister, the other party has outstanding resourcefulness and a high reputation. If he escapes, he will definitely be in trouble in the future.

Situ Hongguang quickly responded, "The general understands that he will definitely dedicate Wan Ting's head to His Majesty himself!"

Chixinmen's lair is in Zhaolie Mansion, and Zhaolie Mansion is also the headquarters of Situ's family. There cannot be two tigers on one mountain, and the two have already fought each other.

As a result, the Situ family was defeated, and the whole family surrendered to Chixinmen, that is, King Mu.

Therefore, Situ Hongguang had already worked for King Mu. He originally served in the military town, but King Mu was about to start an incident, so he took leave and returned to Zhanjing.

But now, chasing Wuxiang is a huge opportunity, and if he can capture and kill the opponent, it will be a great achievement.

Maybe he could be promoted to a high-rank general and become the new emperor's minister... Thinking of this, Situ Hongguang was extremely excited, wishing to fly to the side of the military prime minister and chop off the opponent's head!
