Chapter 229

In the middle of the night, Ninghai City was filled with red light and thick smoke billowed.Shouts of killing sounded from countless places, and on many streets, streams of people rolled towards the same direction, aiming directly at Prince Jinghai's mansion.

At this time, chaos broke out everywhere in the city. Seeing that there was no order in the city, some local hooligans couldn't help but be emboldened by evil, and began to beat, smash, loot, burn, rape and plunder.Countless people shut their doors and windows tightly, stuck the door tightly, and prayed tremblingly.

"Kill! Go in and capture the Jinghai Puppet Emperor alive!"

"Take down King Jinghai and make meritorious deeds!"

"Listen, people inside, hurry up and hand over King Jinghai, and I can spare you from dying!". . . .

Outside the former Jinghai Prince's Mansion, which has now been converted into a royal palace, thousands of people gathered around, threatening endlessly.Under the illumination of the torches, the cold light of the swords and guns flickered endlessly.But at this time, on the wall of the palace less than two feet away, there were also figures of "Yu Linjun", each with complete armor and powerful weapons, tightly holding the weapons in their hands, and looking coldly at the enemies below.

Seeing that the guards of the palace did not compromise, the families had no choice but to order an attack.Immediately, the guardians of countless families rushed towards the palace carrying wooden ladders.

"Fire the arrows!" The commander of the imperial forest army turned pale, and immediately ordered the archers to fight back.

Three hundred archers immediately set up their bows and shot arrows, and the arrow wipers fell on the attacking guards, and countless people screamed and fell on the way to attack.

"Hold on! There aren't many archers in the Palace, so charge up immediately! Whoever goes up first will be rewarded with 100 taels!" Seeing that their guards couldn't withstand the attack of the rain of arrows, some families were about to collapse.In a hurry, he immediately shouted for a big reward, which barely saved the situation.

Under the temptation of Yin Zi, the guards immediately developed a little courage, roaring and rushing towards the wall.Soon, after more than 300 people were killed and injured in the nursing home, the wooden ladder was finally put on the wall.

"Kill!" Seeing the wooden ladder placed on the wall one by one, everyone immediately had hope in their hearts, and they went up to get the first victory and win the reward.

"The enemy is coming up, drive them away!" The commander of the Imperial Forest Army raised his saber, roared, walked vigorously, walked to the top of the wall, and slashed down with his saber. He was hacked off the wall and died beyond death.

"Damn, the opponent is well-equipped and well-trained. Although there are only 3000 people, they are not so easy to deal with." A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of a man in black, looking around at the men in black and representatives of the various families, and said coldly Said, "Now we have gathered more than 5000 people, even if it is just a group of rabble, but there are so many of us, and we rush up together, I don't believe how long those 3000 people can hold back. Kill King Jinghai!"

"Yes, yes!" The representatives of the families did not dare to answer back, and nodded in agreement, but their hearts were bleeding from the pain. These nursing homes are all their own force.

Under the master's order, more than 5000 people launched an attack with all their strength, and the sound of shouting and killing shook half of the city, frightening the nearby people to find a crack in the ground and bury themselves.

And in a mansion not far from the palace, the Gu family's soldiers and hedgehogs gathered here, and countless scouts spilled out of the mansion to investigate the situation around the palace.

At this time, Gu Xiong was armed with security guards, and the man in black was standing beside him. The two of them were constantly listening to the information from the scouts and analyzing the current situation.

"General Gu, each family is attacking the palace now. The guards in the palace are defending well, and they should last for a while. We can't act rashly at this time." The man in black looked at the anxious Gu Xiong'an, and emphasized again and again.

"Sir, I also know this, but on the battlefield, all accidents may happen. The final general is worried that once the palace guards collapse, various forces will flood into the palace. I'm afraid it will be too late if I wait." Gu Xiong'an was quite uneasy. Said.

"Well, it's possible." The man in black nodded, agreeing with this point of view, but frowned, and insisted, "General Gu, don't worry, let's wait, it's too early to attack now."

"I don't know what Mister thinks, when will we be able to attack?"

"Wait until the defenders on the city wall start to be in chaos." The man in black narrowed his eyes and said lightly.

In the palace, the desperate King Jinghai stood blankly on the highest attic in the palace, from here he could see the scene outside the palace.Looking at the shadowy traitors outside, they launched wave after wave of attacks on the palace like waves hitting a rock.

"Hehe, I never thought that I, Gao You, would have today. It's too late for you to repent!" King Jinghai looked up at the dark sky, filled with desolation.

"Your Majesty, there is still a turning point for this matter. There are still [-] troops at the top of the city, and someone will come to rescue at any time." At this moment, a white-haired eunuch prostrated himself on the ground behind him, sobbing, " Your Majesty, as long as we persevere, the group of rebels outside the palace will be wiped out sooner or later."

"[-] troops?" King Jinghai smirked, turned his head to look at the old eunuch on the ground, stepped forward and helped him up, "My friend, your thinking is too simple, most of my so-called [-] troops are from the capital. They are loyal to the family behind them, where is I? Now that the puppet dynasty can instigate the family in the city and want to assassinate me, then there is no reason not to instigate the defenders on the city wall. Open the city gate for them. I have always distrusted these so-called loyal people, but I had to rely on them and use their strength. Unexpectedly, in the end, I was trapped in a cocoon. Alas!"

"This, this, Your Majesty, is there nothing we can do?" The old eunuch's hands trembled slightly, and his cloudy eyes looked at King Jinghai expectantly.

King Jinghai hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head lightly, "The siege of the city is nothing more than a battle of trapped beasts. Ever since Qingpinghe was defeated, I knew that this attack had failed."

"Ah? Then, what should we do then?" The old eunuch asked anxiously, at a loss.

"What should I do? I am the late emperor's younger brother and the uncle of the false emperor in the north. My nephew, regardless of the rebellion in the north and the encroachment of the Tianyun Kingdom in the east, resolutely sent troops to the south, in order to destroy my biggest confidant. Get rid of it." King Jinghai said with a wry smile, "My fate has long been doomed. The so-called winner and loser, I am convinced that I lost. I am convinced."

At this moment, the sound of shouting and killing gradually came from the distant city wall, and the entire wall was in a mess.

King Jinghai laughed wildly when he saw it, pointing at the fire on the city wall, he laughed so hard that tears came out, "Dear companion, do you see it, do you see it? This is the so-called loyal man, haha! Ninghai city is broken, we are finished, It's over!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" The old eunuch looked at King Jinghai worriedly, wanting to comfort him, but he didn't know how to speak.

"Big Companion, I am the Son of Heaven, and I must not fall into the hands of the enemy." After laughing, King Jinghai suddenly calmed down, looking at the eunuch who had been with him since he was young, with a look of pain on his face, "You take me immediately People went to the backyard and killed all the concubines. Also, there were also my sons, and they were all strangled."

"Ah? Your Majesty, this, this, how is this possible?" The old eunuch turned pale with shock and was stunned on the spot.

King Jinghai's face twitched uncontrollably, tears could not stop falling down, "I have no other choice, they will not let my relatives go, it is better to let them die than to let them suffer so much. Hurry up."

"No, Your Majesty, we can disguise the princes and princesses and sneak in among the people. Maybe, maybe, we can get there. Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

"Now that the palace is trapped, how can we send the children out of the mansion? Even if we send them out, based on the enemy's understanding of me, when they find that the number of people is wrong, they will definitely search the whole city, and they will be found sooner or later. Companion, you don't need to Talk too much, I've made up my mind, let's do it!" King Jinghai closed his eyes, shook his head in pain and said.

"Your Majesty!" The old eunuch knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly, kowtowed three times to King Jinghai, and then staggered back.

King Jinghai turned his head to look outside the palace, his whole body was like a statue, standing against the wind.

 Future updates are scheduled for evenings.
