The second day.
The city was filled with a solemn and murderous atmosphere.
The surviving people closed their doors in panic. Although they didn't know what had happened, they had their houses searched yesterday.
But that kind of unknown fear is like someone is watching their every move. Everyone is in danger, afraid of being accidentally caught up in this unexpected disaster.
The Dongshan Camp received an order yesterday to search for rebels in the city.
Ye Yingzhe is in a terrible state!
This job is really a thankless task. The relationship between the East and West Battalions is already bad. If you think they are deliberately making things difficult for you, should you take them down or not?
And how do we define treason?
Mr. Hu committed suicide out of fear of punishment, Lieutenant General Zhong and General Jiang were killed, and there has been no sign of the third person to this day.
Where is he going to find someone?
Ye Yingzhe's idea was the same as most people's. If there really were any traitors, they must be hiding in some army. The common people were so skinny that they had difficulty walking a few steps. Only the military could have the ability to kill the two generals of the garrison.
But he couldn't find evidence in a short time. What if he wrongly accused someone or forced him too hard? Others had troops and could rebel at any time. Wouldn't he become a sinner of Zhongshan?
The orders from above cannot be disobeyed.
Ye Yingzhe had no joy at being in power at this time, and went down to make arrangements with a bitter face.
For a moment.
The city was filled with soldiers from the Dongshan Camp searching.
South City Racecourse.
The garrison, having lost its commander and deputy general, was in danger and guarded the horse farm and the south side of the city. No one dared to run around at this time.
If we are caught as rebels, we will have no way to defend ourselves.
Of course, there are exceptions. Some up-and-coming centurions showed joy on their faces. With the death of the two commanders, wouldn’t that mean they have the opportunity to be promoted?
I really want to go out and test the waters right now, take the hay and grain from the horse farm to bribe, and find someone to say a few good words to His Highness.
The prerequisite is that Dongshan Camp can capture Mr. Hu’s accomplices as soon as possible.
Otherwise, Your Highness would not have the time to deal with them.
The Xishan Camp was even more frightened. They used to be close to Mr. Hu just to curry his favor and say good things about him in front of His Highness, but they didn't expect the situation to change so quickly.
When the commander of the Xishan Camp saw Ye Yingzhe coming in person with his men, he took the initiative to step forward, humbled himself, and smiled, cooperating with their search.
Those who can sit on the position of commander are not stupid. He knows in his heart that as long as there is no evidence, Ye Yingzhe dare not directly convict them.
Lu Qingsheng and Li Shichang, along with their team, stayed close to their commander.
Before anyone knew it, the entire county had been controlled by the Dongshan Camp.
Unfortunately, after a day of searching, there was still no clue.
Time passes.
The mountains in the distance were illuminated by the setting sun into an orange-red color, and the red walls and green tiles of the palace were dyed with golden light, painting a magnificent scene.
The sun...is about to set.
Wei Xiyin stood at the entrance of the palace, silently watching the red sun slowly setting in the sky.
Qin Shan took out the girl’s long sword - Luoxue - from the suitcase.
All the palace maids in Pingyao Palace were tied up with ropes and fell all over the hall with their mouths blocked by cloth.
The faces of the palace maids were filled with fear. They wanted to beg for mercy, but unfortunately they could not move.
Xiang Qi and his five followers quickly finished the work and slowly closed the door.
Wei Xiyin took the sword Qin Shan handed over and said calmly, "Let's go. If we're any later, we won't be able to catch up."
As soon as she gave the order, the group immediately carried the things they had prepared and hurriedly left Pingyao Palace.
Yuan Sanlang was short-sighted. He had just dispatched the soldiers surrounding Pingyao Palace, which just made it easier for them to act. Given his 'stupidity', even if he had reacted, it would have been too late.
The road ahead is clear.
After living in the palace for a few days, they had already gotten to know the surrounding situation, not to mention that they had the princess leading the way.
Wei Li held the long tasseled spear tightly and followed Qin Shan in front.
Along the way, he ran into a few palace servants who were hiding here and slacking off. Before they could react, he swung his sword, blood splattered everywhere, and the people fell to the ground and died.
The group did not linger, but followed a winding stone road behind the hall, turning several times until they arrived at a side hall that had been uninhabited for a long time.
Xiang Qi stepped forward, killed the palace guards, and entered the palace.
The princess explained why she chose this place, "This is where Motosaburo lived before he ascended the throne. Given his personality, he would never think of coming here again."
Indeed, the time he spent as a bastard may have been a humiliating one for Yuan Saburo.
Now that I am in a high position, why would I want to face my past self?
Wei Xiyin nodded slightly and said, "Let's wait here for the opportunity. When the action outside starts, we will cooperate with the outside forces." There was no other way. It was because they were few in number and were surrounded by enemies inside the palace.
at the same time.
As the sun sets little by little, until the last corner completely disappears on the horizon.
The surrounding vision began to become gray, and in less than a moment, night fell.
Outside the granary to the north of Zhongren County.
Wei Mingyuan had been waiting for many days and had completely understood the situation of the granary and had already deployed a battle plan.
He led the Wei family army and took the lead in attacking the granary.
The Wei family army moved lightly through the enemy's patrol line like a black shadow, hidden in the night, exuding a cold and murderous aura.
They communicated tacitly using gestures and eye contact, without a sound, maintaining complete silence.
Following the general's order.
The Wei family army appeared behind the patrol team like a ghost and surrounded the entire Zhongshan granary.
The lazy soldiers didn't even react, facing the sudden enemy attack with a stunned look on their faces...
The battle broke out without warning, and the sword lights and arrows instantly intertwined into a bloody picture, with screams ringing in the ears.
"Enemy attack! Go light the signal fire!"
Unfortunately, all the roads to the county town to request reinforcements have been blocked.
The general who shouted was slashed in the throat by Wei Mingyuan. He shook off the blood on the knife and looked fierce, "Those who lay down their weapons and surrender will not be killed!"
The Wei family soldiers shouted in unison, "Those who lay down their weapons and surrender will not be killed!"
The soldiers in the granary were trembling and swallowing loudly.
After a moment, someone threw away the weapon in his hand.
Otherwise, what awaits them will be a bloody suppression.
Surrender and live.
Resist, die.
At the same time, outside the south city gate.
Wei Ling and Shi Le led a thousand Wei family soldiers to attack the garrison.
There are few of them, but with Mr. Qu here, there are a lot of little black balls.
The garrison was a rebellious army, and the soldiers who had participated in the murder of the princess's mother and brother could be crushed directly by force.
Cookie couldn't wait to open the box. He was eager to try it out and took out the improved version of the little black ball.
I've been wanting to use it for a long time, and now I finally have the chance.
It’s a good opportunity to let everyone see it, this is a divine weapon that he made by himself!
