Chapter 452 Attacking the Capital



"Didn't Commander Yi lead 150,000 troops out of the city?"

Minister Kong frowned and looked at Captain Li. "Didn't they encounter these people?"

Logically, it shouldn't have happened.

Captain Li looked at Minister Kong speechlessly, "I don't know."

"Looking at the direction this large group is coming from, they should be coming from Menglan City."

"According to the time, Commander Yi should be arriving in Menglan City soon."

"With so many people, it's impossible not to meet them along the way, so..."

It's not just a few people who sneaked over. It's a large, conspicuous green army that stretches as far as the eye can see. There are at least 100,000 people.

With so many people, it is impossible for Commander Yi not to see them unless all the soldiers were blind.

There was only one result, that is, the people led by Commander Yi were killed by this group of people.

Minister Kong's eyes widened in shock, his whole body trembling, he muttered,

“How… How is it possible…”

"That's an army of 150,000. Even if a fight breaks out, there's no way there won't be a single person who escapes back to report the news."

Minister Kong looked at the large green army in panic.

"Is his strength so terrifying!?"

After a pause, Minister Kong took a deep breath, swallowed his saliva, and gave his attendant a trembling voice,

"Quickly, go and tell the Emperor to mobilize all the troops that can be mobilized from the capital."

"Call all the archers to the city walls, quickly."

In a panic, Minister Kong didn't know how to respond.

He was just the Minister of War. He understood the art of war, but it was all theory.

He has never participated in a serious war.

Captain Li glanced at the followers who hurriedly left, frowned and looked at the main force.

"Minister Kong, can you please ask?"

"...Okay." Minister Kong was stunned. "Bring the loudspeaker."

Minister Kong took the trumpet made of rolled iron sheets, took a deep breath, and shouted to the green army,

"Whoever dares to gather in the capital, leave immediately or I will kill them without mercy!"

Right now we can only try our best to scare it away. If that doesn't work... we'll have to think of another way.

What can he do? The military strength of the capital may not even be half of that of the enemy. How can he fight?

Where on earth did this large army come from? They arrived at the gate of the capital without anyone noticing. It's really scary.

Ji Guangda smiled and turned to look at Chen Yong.

"His voice is trembling, yet he's determined to kill him without mercy. There really aren't many people worth mentioning in the capital."

"All that glitters is gold on the outside, but rotten on the inside." Chen Yong curled his lips into a smile and pulled out a loud speaker from his pocket.

After setting up the recording, he shouted at the city gate tower word by word,

"The Golden Armored Army has arrived. Open the city gates immediately and surrender to spare your life! Those who resist will have their entire clan exterminated upon the day the city is breached!"

"Those who surrender will live! Those who resist will die!"

With the loudspeaker turned up to maximum volume, it can be heard clearly within a radius of five or six miles.

Minister Kong was startled by the clear sound and the tin trumpet in his hand almost slipped.

"Golden...Golden Armored Army!?"

Minister Kong looked at Captain Li with a pale face, "Have you heard of the Golden Armor Army?"

Captain Li frowned and shook his head, "I've never heard of the Golden Armor Army."

"but....."

Captain Li narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the leaders of the enemy army.

"The person who was shouting seemed to be the seventh son of the Shen family."

He had been on duty at the city gate for many years and had never been able to get promoted.

Over the years, he has become familiar with most of the children of the noble families in the city.

The most familiar one among them is Shen Yong.

Because Chen Yong would take the girls from the brothel to go boating on the lake outside the city every now and then.

He often comes back late at night, and it is not uncommon to come back just as the city gates are closing.

For this reason, Shen Yong gave him a lot of money to ask him to be flexible.

Someone gave the city gate guards money to treat them to wine and meat, and of course he was happy to do so.

Anyway, Chen Yong didn't come back particularly late, so it didn't affect the closing of the city gate much.

As soon as that person opened his mouth just now, he felt particularly familiar.

Looking more closely at the young man with his back straight on horseback, he looks more and more like Chen Yong.

Chen Yong's voice was just a little more cold and clear than before, not as lazy as before, but no matter how it changed, the voice remained basically unchanged.

At first glance they sound exactly the same, but only when you listen carefully can you tell the differences.

"Ah!?" Minister Kong's pupils trembled, and he hurriedly turned to look at the leading people.

He squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time, and the more he looked, the more it looked like Shen Yong.

“How… How is this possible?!”

“Didn’t Chen Yong escape to Fire Extinguishing City?”

All the civil and military officials in the capital knew why General Fan went out.

Shen Yong used some unknown means to occupy the Fire Extinguishing City and proclaimed himself king.

Emperor Tianwu directly sent General Fan to lead troops to capture Shen Yong.

How could Shen Yong suddenly appear in the capital with a large army?

What about General Fan?

Could it be that he was also destroyed by Chen Yong?

Thinking of this possibility, Minister Kong's heart skipped a beat and his face turned pale instantly.

He squinted his eyes hard, but he couldn't see the person opposite him clearly.

Minister Kong was so anxious that he blocked his eyes with the tin horn and looked carefully at the enemy opposite.

With a loud "clang".

Minister Kong's hand trembled, and he took three or four steps back, and the tin trumpet in his hand fell to the ground.

"It turns out...it really is...Shen Yong..."

Not only did he see Shen Yong, he also saw the familiar face beside Shen Yong - Guard Ji Guangda.
