Chapter 826 Rescue!
Even if most of the Beijing troops were guarding the west gate, the east gate could not be breached so quickly!
The only possibility is that someone in the city's garrison rebelled! The city gates were opened for them!
Chen Yanchuan immediately jumped on his horse and headed towards the palace!
"Send an order! Summon the Black Cavalry to the palace to rescue the emperor!"
Lian Zhou didn't care about anything else. He immediately took out a bamboo tube from his arms and pulled the string suddenly!
——Whoosh! Bang!
In the blink of an eye, the tall and slender black figure disappeared into the streets!
…
"Your Highness, they are gathering people!"
The man wearing the silver mask looked up into the air upon hearing this.
A firework suddenly exploded!
Everyone in the capital should have noticed it.
but……
So what?
"It's too late!" Another soldier laughed. "How could they have predicted that someone in the city had already surrendered! For Your Highness, this capital is like entering a deserted place!"
The man wearing the silver mask also laughed.
"Chen Shuang is quite capable."
Chen Shuang, then a Langzhong in the Ministry of War, was in charge of city defense dispatch.
Starting with him, the city gate can be opened at will!
"Everyone else thinks I'm crazy, but they don't know how much I've sacrificed for this day!"
On the way north, even the people around him repeatedly advised him to slow down and not to rush.
However, how could they know that he already had a trump card - in the capital!
"Restore the Great Zhou! I will wait till my death!"
A soldier shouted loudly!
This sound spread far and wide, greatly boosting morale.
"Your Highness will win! Great Zhou will win!"
They suffered from hunger and cold along the way and finally arrived in the capital, but they were already at the end of their strength. Many people had already complained privately, but now the city gate was opened without any effort. How could they not be excited?
For a moment, the shouts were deafening and the momentum was overwhelming!
"rush!"
…
Imperial Palace.
Xiao Chengqi's face was extremely cold.
"This Chen Shuang! I'm so lucky to have trusted him! How dare he do such treasonous and rebellious things!"
All the ministers were in a panic.
"Your Majesty, the rebels have entered the city and will soon reach the palace! Your Majesty, please evacuate first—"
"I won't leave!"
Xiao Chengqi shouted,
"If he really has the ability to break into the palace, I will fight him to the death!"
If I run away like this, wouldn't I be laughed at by the whole world?
Then he might as well not sit on the throne!
"But--"
The ministers looked at each other, feeling anxious and uneasy.
Xiao Chengqi said coldly, "The rebels are only 30,000 strong, and there are 80,000 of them in the city. What is there to be afraid of?"
Someone looked hesitant, "Your Majesty, but Guan Chun..."
"With Shen Youyan guarding the Zhengxi Gate, is it possible that Guan Chun can defeat him?"
Xiao Chengqi sneered.
He also fought his way through the battlefield. Even with such a big display, Guan Chun still couldn't be a match for Shen Youyan!
"The Beijing Camp only needs to allocate half of its troops, and Shen Youyan will be able to hold the Zhengxi Gate. During this period, the remaining troops are enough to fight the rebels back and forth!"
Although he said this, many people are still very worried.
"But the rebel leader is quite capable. He has already instigated Guan Chun and Chen Shuang to rebel. Who knows how many people in the capital are still under his command?"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Just as everyone was arguing, Eunuch Wu hurried in to report, looking excited.
"Your Majesty! The Prince of Dingbei has led the Black Cavalry into the palace to rescue you!"
