Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 768

Life is a gamble.

This sentence is very suitable for Zhao Jing at present.

Although he is the third prince of the Song Dynasty, he has no real power and is not a prince. Even if the new emperor succeeds in the future, he will not be able to be ranked above him.

Now Li Xiuyuan gave him a chance, a chance to sit on the throne and become emperor.

And he had to agree, if he didn't agree, Li Xiuyuan would really break into the palace and support other princes to ascend the throne, then his life would be in danger in the future.

"Xu Bao, you should have heard what I said just now, now make your choice in front of my prince, whether you would like to help me, if this is done, you will be from the dragon, and this prince is I won't treat you badly." The third prince Zhao Jing took a deep breath, looked at Xu Bao and said.

Xu Bao's face was changing at the moment, he regretted taking this job now, and he saw the end of Zuo Qianhu, who was willing to give up.

The body was still lying on the side, and the blood was still warm.

The only end for refusing to work together is death, and it is impossible for Li Xiuyuan to let himself go.

If these people are mediocre, he is not afraid, he can fight with his own bravery, but with those few masters, he is no match at all.

"Xu Bao, my prince won't give you too much time to think. Master Li's fine cavalry has already been killed outside. Once the forbidden army is broken, your value will disappear. Hurry up and make a decision." Zhao Jing Feeling nervous too, he urged.

Seeing this, Li Xiuyuan didn't care about it, but ordered: "Get ready, follow me out of Ruyifang, the fine cavalry brought by Mao Wu has already arrived, it's time to defeat the forbidden army and enter the palace with one fell swoop. Everyone in Cheng also has the merits of the first embrace. I dare not say that I will let you honor your ancestors, but you are rich and honorable.

Ronghua is not a problem. "

"Yes, young master."

Everyone responded with some excitement, and immediately began to prepare for the next battle.

"Xu Bao, haven't you figured it out yet?" Zhao Jing scolded anxiously, if even Xu Bao couldn't persuade him to surrender, his value would be greatly reduced, and he didn't know if the cooperation with Li Xiuyuan would cause problems .

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan led the crowd to leave Ruyifang, glanced at Xu Bao, and seeing that he had no intention of accepting surrender, he waved his hand to signal Wu Xiang.

no solution anymore.

As soon as Xu Bao gritted his teeth, he knelt down on one knee: "Humble job is willing to work for the third prince."

At the juncture of life and death, his loyalty is vulnerable, and both left and right are serving the Zhao family, so changing the emperor has no effect on him.

"Okay, okay, okay, with the help of General Xu Bao, why should I worry about the failure of this prince?" Zhao Jing said three good words in succession, with an excited expression on his face, he hurried forward to help Xu Bao who was kneeling on his knees: "Also General Xu Bao, please go out with this prince and persuade the imperial army outside to surrender."

"Yes, I'm under orders." Xu Bao had no choice but to bite the bullet and walked all the way to the dark.

However, at this moment, the two thousand cavalry who had entered the capital had already rushed out of Ruyi Square under the leadership of Sha Jin.

In an instant, the left and right roads on the official road of Ruyifang went side by side, and the iron cavalry attacked, and the sound of screaming resounded through the sky.

"Repel the forbidden army, rescue the general, and kill." Mao Wu roared while holding a steel knife.

"Kill~!"

The sound of shouting and killing enveloped the four directions, and the iron cavalry charged in an instant, and the imperial guards outside Ruyifang were torn apart like paper, and they had no room to fight back when they were knocked down by the healthy horse On the ground, the iron cavalry behind followed up with a few screams and was trampled to death.

Although the streets of the busy city cannot accommodate a large number of cavalry charging, the natural advantage of the cavalry is here. Under the situation of equal numbers, the infantry is almost no match.

Seeing the cavalry coming from all directions, the more than 1000 imperial guards surrounding Ruyifang suddenly panicked.

"How could it be, what happened?" A commander of the forbidden army panicked.

"No, it's not good. It's Li Xiuyuan's cavalry in the south. The cavalry has entered the city. The capital has already fallen, and there are people fleeing everywhere." A soldier ran over in panic.

"What?" The commander turned pale with shock; "Why did the capital fall so well?"

"The little one doesn't know. The little one only knows that Li Xiuyuan's cavalry is everywhere. They came from the south of the city. A defender from the south of the city said that the capital has been broken by the army."

"It's over, it's over." The weapon commander of the imperial army also fell to the ground.

Three become tigers.

The defenders didn't know anything about war, they only knew that many cavalry had entered the capital, and they thought that the capital was falling and the dynasty was about to change as said in the play, so they fled everywhere.

In addition, when the people in the capital are in chaos, everyone is in danger, thinking that there are many enemies, far more than two thousand cavalry.

"Kill them and rescue the young master."

Sha Jin didn't understand how frightened the enemy was, but he knew that his main purpose was to save people.

"It's over, it's over, the enemy army is coming." The commander of the imperial army looked panicked and wanted to turn around and run away, but he found that the cavalry that was rushing could be seen in all directions, and there was nowhere to escape.

Yet at this time.

The door of Ruyifang opened again.

Wearing a black fish scale armor, a golden red cloak, and a sword hanging from his waist, a young general with an outstanding figure and handsome appearance, Gu Pan Shengwei led the crowd and strode out from the inside.

Accompanied by the third prince Zhao Jing who entered before and General Yaksha Xu Bao.

"Mao Wu, Sha Jin, stop attacking, surround but not kill." As soon as Li Xiuyuan walked out, he immediately shouted in a low voice with luck.

The voice of the martial arts practitioner had penetrating power, and immediately spread outside the noisy environment.

Mao Wu, who was about to lead the cavalry to kill the forbidden army, paused immediately when he heard Li Xiuyuan's voice, and then hurriedly shouted: "Young master has an order, stop the attack, surround without killing."

"The general has an order to encircle but not kill."

"The general has an order."

The cavalry who delivered the order spread the order over and over again, and the voice continued to echo.

All the cavalry were ordered immediately after hearing the words, pulled the reins one after another, and slowed down their horses.

"Wow~!"

The war horse neighed endlessly.

"Third Prince, it's your turn. If you can't surrender, my cavalry will kill them all. At this juncture, the benevolence of women will only cause bad things." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Lord Li, please rest assured." The third prince Zhao Jing took a deep breath, and then led Xu Bao to the panicked imperial army.

Xu Bao shouted loudly at this moment: "Everyone, don't panic. These are Master Li's soldiers and horses, not the enemy. Don't act recklessly. Put down your weapons and don't start a conflict."

"What, what?" The sudden reversal confused the guards.

The third prince, Zhao Jing, climbed up and shouted at this moment: "I am the third prince, Zhao Jing. Today's facts are a huge misunderstanding. The current national teacher, Cholera, has falsely preached the imperial decree and murdered Mr. Li. Just now, this prince has already put everything in order." I figured it out, now the prince is following the secret order of his father to transfer Mr. Li
The army entered Beijing for the purpose of killing the demon monk Cihang, and everyone, please help me to kill Cihang, Qingjun side. "

As he spoke, he really held up a scroll of imperial edict.

Of course, the imperial decree is fake, it was repackaged by the imperial decree that was cut off by Li Xiuyuan before, even so, it is still possible to fool these forbidden soldiers.

Without hesitation, he was thick-skinned, turned the truth upside down, and told the story of the forced palace rebellion in a high-sounding way, which made people feel somewhat convinced.

"What the third prince said is true, this general can prove it." General Yasha Xu Bao stood up at this time.

Li Xiuyuan watched the performance of the third prince and Xu Bao, but he didn't care too much about the fault, only the result.

"Eldest young master, the young one is late, please forgive me." At this moment, Mao Wu led the cavalry, hurriedly got off his horse, and knelt down on one knee with a look of shame.

Li Xiuyuan helped him up and said, "You didn't come too late, you came in time, you have done a great job this time."

"Lord Li, my credit is not insignificant. I guarded the south gate of the city for you." Xia Houwu said with a smile out of nowhere.

"Rarely, this time you have contributed a lot. Talk to me about what you want after finishing the work. I will not be stingy with rewards." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Haha, with Master Li's words, everything is exciting." Xia Houwu said excitedly.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Now is not the time to talk long and short. There is still an important matter to be done. It is not too late to sit down and discuss meritorious deeds after this matter is done."

As he spoke, he took out the Longma picture from the ghost king's bag.

After the dragon horse landed, he immediately got on the horse.

"Everyone get on their horses and go to the imperial city with this general," Li Xiuyuan said.

Mao Wu wondered, "Eldest young master, what are you doing in the imperial city?"

"Saving people, why, are you scared?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

"Don't be afraid, the young master will go wherever the young master goes." Mao Wu immediately said firmly, "The young master gave the young master his life."

Li Xiuyuan smiled, but rode out slowly on the dragon colt.

At this moment, the third prince, Zhao Jing and Xu Bao, finally recruited these forbidden soldiers after spending a lot of time, and they didn't know what lies they told or what benefits they promised. It looks like a mess.

"My lord Li, it's a good thing you didn't disgrace your life. Finally, you have surrendered these imperial troops. What should you do with the rest?" Seeing Li Xiuyuan coming on horseback, Zhao Jing hurriedly asked, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Li Xiuyuan said: "The imperial city has dispatched two thousand imperial troops, and the defenses will definitely be empty during this period. I will contain most of the enemies from the front. Third prince, you can sneak into the imperial city with these imperial troops from other places. At that time, the inside and the outside should cooperate. It is not difficult to obtain this imperial city, but I don’t know that’s all.

Ask the third prince if you can do it. "

If he wants to fight against the national division head-on, splitting the troops into two groups is the best choice.

"It can be done, it can be done, Lord Li please rest assured." The third prince Zhao Jing said excitedly, obviously already very confident about entering the imperial city.

"Very good, Mao Wu, you lead five hundred riders to help the third prince, Yan Chixia, Xia Houwu, you also go with the third prince." Li Xiuyuan said in a deep voice: "The enemy army is not to be feared, the thing to be careful of is the thousand-year-old monster who casts spells to cause chaos, I will attract the enemy's attention from the front, and I won't meet too many monsters on the side of the third prince.
I can only trouble you. "

"Scholar, don't worry, if there is a big monster making trouble, whoever will die." Yan Chixia patted her chest and said seriously.

"Ah~!"

At this time, there was a sudden scream, and it seemed that someone had been killed.

Li Xiuyuan looked around, but saw Zhao Jing holding a blood-stained sword with trembling hands, while Zhao Yong, the envoy who announced the decree before, was lying in a pool of blood with his eyes wide open.

"Since the third prince's affairs are over here, what are you waiting for? You haven't led the troops yet." Li Xiuyuan said.

He knew that Zhao Jing was trying to kill the envoy Ming Zhi, to show his determination.

Kill Zhao Yong, the envoy sent by the government, and there will be no way out.

"Everything is up to Mr. Li." Zhao Jing said tremblingly.
