Chapter 1432
"Hey, man is not as good as God. Send people back to report that we have captured Jinwen County, and hope that all tribes will send troops to annex the coastal province!" Tang Feng sighed.

"What? Annex the seaside province!" Lei Ming was taken aback: "Uncle, didn't you say that we should not anger the August Empire too much for the time being? Losing a county that is not very controlled on the border is completely different from being swallowed up by a province. ah!"

"You think I think so, but without Jinwen County to be plundered by the army, do you think that the army of more than [-] will stay in this rubble field obediently? They will not march towards the surrounding counties!

"Anyway, this province will be destroyed in the end. If this is the case, it would be better to mobilize a large force from the beginning, directly destroy the garrison division, and completely swallow this province." Tang Feng said helplessly.

"Ah, but..." Lei Ming still hesitated.

"Actually, there is no need to worry too much. According to the plan, it is estimated that the borders of the empire are not stable. Coupled with the sudden heart attack of the empire, it is still possible for us to occupy the coastal province. Don't worry, I will also issue an order to call all the mountain regiments to join the battle." Tang Feng said.

Lei Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's fight!"

On the second day, Zhao Hu's troops got up very easily, had breakfast, and then started on the road.

The road conditions were good, and the troops marched very fast, and it took less than two days to reach a nearby city.

Zhao Hu knew that the city refused to send reinforcements, because it was a military regulation, so he didn't blame him, but he was surprised that he had sent a messenger a long time ago, why are they still so lax here?Have all the soldiers been transferred to the provincial capital?

This is impossible, this is the only way to go to Jinwen County City, the most is to order them to wait for the arrival of the large troops.

Although Zhao Hu and the others, carrying the banner of the Jinwen City Guards, were numerous, they hadn't frightened the people in the city, and the city gate was still wide open.But in comparison, except for the guards, no one came in and out.

Zhao Hu stopped the troops far away, and led Zhou Wen and a few others to ride forward.

Seeing those guards with pale faces and trembling feet, I knew that they were also afraid, but saw that the other party was pretending to be their own, and they forcibly held back and did not escape.

After saluting, Zhao Hu asked, "I'm Zhao Hu, a major staff officer of the Fifth Regiment, is the captain of the Fourth Regiment here?"

This city is the residence of the Fourth Wing, which belongs to the Fifth Brigade, and they are very close colleagues in terms of organization.It's a pity that the old colonel of the Fifth Wing had a bad relationship with his superiors, which caused the relationship between his colleagues to be bad, and he had no contact with other establishments at all.

"Ah, good morning, sir! Did you also receive an order to go to the provincial capital? Ten days ago, our regiment leader took all the troops to the provincial capital." The guard hurriedly replied.

"What! The entire alliance went to the provincial capital?" Zhao Hu and the others were dumbfounded. Is there such an idiot behavior?Assemble the entire division in the provincial capital and then rush over?
"That's right, not only the regiment, but also the county governor took all his family members and escorted him to the provincial capital. Now there are only a few county officials maintaining the city," said the guard.

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback again.

The sheriff ran away with his family?no?Did this guy run away in fright because of the Shanyue tribe's invasion?But he went with the alliance. Did something happen in the provincial government?But even if there is an important matter to call all the county governors to discuss, you don't need to bring all the family members with you, right?
"Did you see the people of our Jinwen County passing by?" Zhou Wen asked suddenly.

Seeing the beauty's question, the guard blushed, straightened his waist and said, "Tens of thousands of refugees passed by more than ten days ago. They originally wanted to go to the city to rest, but they were rejected by the regimental captain and the county governor, and asked them to go directly to the city. The provincial government settled down."

Although dissatisfied with the people of Jinwen County being called refugees, everyone was relieved knowing that they were fine.

Zhou Wen leaned forward and Zhao Hu said in a low voice: "My lord, it seems that they don't know about the bandit invasion. What should we do now?"

Zhao Hu pondered for a while and said: "Go to the city to buy wound medicine, and see if we can recruit some doctors to accompany the army, and then we will go to the provincial capital."

When Zhao Hu's team set off again, the city was still calm, Zhao Hu and others were very helpless about this.The wound medicine in the city was swept away, but unfortunately none of the doctors were willing to join the army, they were all born and bred with family and business, who would mess with the army.

The most regrettable thing is that those officials don't believe the words of Major Zhao Hu at all, and even if they do believe it, they don't care. How dare the little mountain bandits invade the empire's territory?It is simply life and death.Finally, he warned Zhao Hu not to confuse the public with evil words, and causing turmoil in the city would definitely make Zhao Hu overwhelmed.

Zhao Hu had no choice but to hit the road.

Ten days later, this defenseless city was captured without even sending someone to report to the swarms of Shanyue soldiers.The wealth in the city was looted, and the people became slaves to work for the Shanyue people.In the end, there are ten out of ten who can regain their freedom.

Time goes back to the night when the Shanyue soldiers wiped out the fifth regiment with ice oil, the Augustus Empire - the imperial capital.

As the capital of a huge empire, all important departments of the empire are concentrated in this city.Facing the most perverted city wall in the world, coupled with the so-called most powerful imperial guards in the world, as well as the huge city guards, and the powerful divisions guarding the imperial capital, it can be said that the imperial capital is definitely the safest place in the entire world.

Due to the long peace, although the city guards still patrolled and guarded in strict accordance with the regulations, they inevitably appeared in a state of being careless.

At this time, a patrol team belonging to the City Guards passed through the gate of the military headquarters as before, looked around, did not check carefully, and just lined up and walked away slowly.After they left, several black figures in tights suddenly appeared, one of them looked up at the sky, and then made a gesture, and they immediately jumped into the gate of the military headquarters.

Not long after, there was a sudden rush of bells. First, a bell rang, and then bell towers all over the city rang.

The military department immediately ejected several figures, and these figures briefly recognized the location of the bell, and immediately galloped quickly.After these figures disappeared, the military headquarters remained quiet.

Hearing the sound of the bell, almost everyone in the imperial capital jumped up, except for those who had no status and were particularly sound asleep, especially the adults in official positions, who shouted before they even opened their eyes: "Hurry up!" ! Prepare the horses!"

The body is weak, but he is still the bridegroom every night, His Majesty the emperor, the supreme emperor of the empire, although his whole body is weak, he also got up with the support of the beautiful woman.

Before the maid came to wait for the dressing, the emperor roared in a hoarse voice: "What's the matter? Why did the attack alarm go off? How did the enemy send out the alarm when they attacked the imperial capital? Mobilize the army to enforce martial law throughout the city!"

No wonder the emperor was so flustered, because the alarm meant that there was an enemy attacking the city.The empire has been established for so many years, and the alarm has only sounded a few times, and these times were all caused by the princes fighting for the throne after the emperor died. The alarm never sounded when the emperor was in power.

After the bell stopped, the imperial guards and city guards were already fully armed and scattered throughout the city, among which the elite gathered around the imperial city.

The court meeting in the middle of the night began, and all the dignitaries who were qualified to go to the palace in Beijing were present.

However, the atmosphere was a little weird. Except for the emperor who was well-dressed, the other people, such as the prime minister, the marshal, the officials of various ministries, princes, princes and princesses, were all disheveled, with messy hair, and even a few eyes with gum in the corners of their eyes.

It's just that except for the sick-looking emperor pacing back and forth, none of the others dared to straighten their appearance, and all stood there with their hands tied.

Just when the atmosphere was uncomfortable, footsteps came from outside the hall, and everyone stared at the door from the corner of their eyes.

A military general wearing a weapon stepped in quickly, knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "Your Majesty, it has been found out that it is..." The general's face suddenly became ugly when he said this, and he didn't know what to say.

The emperor stared: "Say it!"

The general swallowed his saliva, and then said with a desperate expression: "Yes, it was the thirteenth prince who broke into the clock tower drunk and sounded the alarm."

"what?"

Everyone was stunned, the whole city was put on alert, the troops were on the loose, and the important ministers of the empire rode horses and galloped late at night, all because of a prince who was drunk?What clock did he think it was?Knock what you want?

The emperor's face turned white and red, and he was very uncomfortable being hit by the ups and downs, and finally couldn't help vomiting blood.The dignitaries and guards were so frightened that their faces immediately turned white, and with an exclamation, His Majesty surrounded him.

However, they retreated faster than before, because a dozen or so black-clothed men with hoods and masks suddenly appeared beside the emperor, holding weapons in their hands.

These men in black surrounded the emperor and stared at everyone present.

Everyone knows that this is the emperor's personal bodyguard, who is responsible for protecting the emperor's safety. If people like myself are misunderstood by them, they will kill them for nothing, because as long as they are for the emperor's safety, even if they kill the prince, they will kill the prince. like a dog.

Even if people like myself have a high status and great authority, they can't compare to the prince who is the pinnacle of ministers.

The prime minister didn't move, but just yelled at the guards: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and send the imperial doctor!"

Soon, seven or eight imperial doctors surrounded the emperor and fiddled for a while. They didn't know whether the imperial doctor's skills were better or the emperor's life was more important. Anyway, the emperor took a breath and woke up.

Seeing that the emperor was awake, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly returned to their original positions at the court, and the guards in black disappeared immediately.

The emperor pinched his brows and waved his hand to the general: "The thirteenth prince violated the rules of heaven and acted according to the law."
