Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 276 Already Entering the City
Li Yu's fat face was frowning extremely tightly, with a frightened and pale face.He mustered up a lot of courage today and wanted to go to the top of the city to see Song Jun in person, but before he left the imperial city, a servant came to report in a panic, saying that Song Jun had entered the city.Then I saw Guo Chongyue rushing into the imperial city with a messy [-] Han army, and let the [-] Han army go up to the wall of the imperial city, preparing to continue to defend the imperial city.

Gong Chengshu just transferred out the wealth accumulated in the city over 60 years since the founding of the Southern Han Dynasty in the city last night. He came to see Chen Jingyuan early in the morning. holy island.

However, as soon as he arrived at the Jade Emperor Palace, he heard shouts of killing from outside, and then someone came down to report that the Song army had entered the city.

Hearing this, Gong Chengshu couldn't help but look a little ugly, and scolded: "This Liu Yu is indeed a waste among wastes, and Guo Chongyue has only guarded for one day, and he is even more waste." He was not worried about the destruction of Panyu City, but worried about it. Now I can't get out of the imperial city, and I can't escape by secret way.However, in a blink of an eye, he thought that Chen Jingyuan was still in the imperial city, and the five thousand black cavalry regiments did not know where they were hiding, so he calmed down and ran into the top floor of the Jade Emperor Hall.

After Gong Chengshu knelt down, before he could speak, Chen Jingyuan said: "Organize all our manpower in the imperial city to help Liu Yan guard the imperial city, and persist until Ye Chen's Heart Control Pill takes hold, and then you don't have to worry about it later. This seat will personally act."

Gong Chengshu didn't dare to ask in detail, turned around and left in a hurry.

There are nearly [-] eunuchs, bodyguards, court ladies in the imperial city, most of them are members of the Tianyi sect, especially the [-] bodyguards are manpower that Gong Chengshu has painstakingly cultivated over the years. It was taken out of the city by the secret path and brought to Tianyi Holy Island.At this time, the opportunity has been missed, and they can only follow Chen Jingyuan's order to gather these people to guard the imperial city.

Ye Chen sent people to guard the east gate and the north gate, and when Zhao Zan and Pan Mei entered the city, he told them that Huaxia Weifu had inquired about the stronghold of the Black Cavalry Legion in the city in advance.Let the two lead the army and Ye Chen to surround and kill the Black Cavalry Army first.

After Pan Mei hesitated for a moment, she sent [-] cavalry, led by Guo Jin, to follow Ye Chen's men, while she led a large group of troops straight to the imperial city.

Zhao Zan was better than Pan, and sent [-] cavalry and [-] infantry to encircle and suppress the Black Cavalry, and he rushed to the imperial city with the rest of his troops.

Ye Chen was the first to enter the city, and as soon as he entered the city, under the leadership of Xu Fangyi, he rushed to the camp of the Black Cavalry Legion in Nancheng, but it was empty, and there was no one in the camp.Xu Fangyi, who was following with a dozen intelligence agents, was taken aback. He didn't know when the Black Cavalry Legion left and where they were hiding now.

The disappearance of the Black Cavalry Legion cast a shadow in Ye Chen's heart, secretly vigilant in his heart, and led the army to the imperial city.

The Southern Han Dynasty was founded nearly 60 years ago, which is much longer than the Song Dynasty, which was just over ten years old. The scale and height of this imperial city is even stronger than the imperial city in Kaifeng of the Song Dynasty.

At this time, there was no one to be seen on the entire streets of the Southern Han capital, especially on the avenue leading directly to the imperial palace, which was even more deserted and palpitating.

"No matter how the Black Cavalry Legion escaped the sight of our intelligence officers and moved to hide elsewhere." Xu Fangyi rode behind Ye Chen and said, "But Chen Jingyuan hasn't escaped yet, so he must still want to harm Lord Hou. He even wanted to kidnap Lord Hou. That Chen Jingyuan was recognized by many foolish people in the Southern Han Dynasty as a god-like existence. Although they are all foolish people, this demon can control the Southern Han Kingdom for 50 years, which shows that this person's mind is absolutely extraordinary. , and his own strength is rare in the world, so the lower official thinks that the chief commander should give up the previous plan, and from now on he must not leave the army for half a step."

Ye Chen frowned and said, "You mean to give up the plan to kill Chen Jingyuan."

Xu Fangyi said: "My lord, your safety is the first priority. If we lose the parasitic land of the Southern Han Kingdom today, with the strength of our Huaxia Weifu, sooner or later we will be able to gather people to kill Tianyi Holy Island. The subordinates believe that the envoy must not take risks at this time."

Having said that, Xu Fangyi paused for a while before saying, "Master Si, please change positions with the substitute."

Ye Chen sighed, no longer persisting, thinking that he could only take one step at a time, and wait for the opportunity to find an opportunity.He knew that no matter how large the army was, as long as a master at Chen Jingyuan's level didn't fall into the siege of the army, it would be a breeze to leave the imperial city and Panyu city, not to mention how many black cavalry regiments there were. Hidden in the dark.

As for the Black Cavalry Legion, after listening to Xu Fangyi's detailed report on the monitoring situation these days, Ye Chen really couldn't understand how they left the camp, and how they hid so many people in Panyu City without being discovered by the Song army. .

Gong Chengshu frowned very tightly, watching the movement of the entire capital condescendingly, analyzing in his heart if the Song army attacked the imperial city, what should he do next to hold it for at least half a day.Next to him, Liu Yu was submissive and didn't dare to say anything.

On the other side of the gate of the imperial city, four or 500 meters away from Gong Chengshu, Guo Chongyue deliberately avoided Gong Chengshu, while thinking about the plan that Hu Sanguang had discussed with him, while pretending to command troops to disperse around the city. .At the same time, he sent a hundred Huaxia guards dressed as his personal guards to the gate of the imperial city.

Although Gong Chengshu had never led an army to defend the city, he was not lacking in wisdom. After thinking about it all the way, he already had some ideas and countermeasures. He first ordered the eunuchs and maids in the palace to demolish the two corner towers of the imperial city, and get more A lot of stone and heavy wood are used to deal with the later defense of the city.Then let the eunuchs in the palace dismantle the rockery in the palace, and push it by the gate of the imperial city with a cart.

Normally, only one of the three palace gates in the imperial city will be opened, but when the Song army attacked, of course they would not choose only one. Gong Chengshu planned to use fake rocks to block these three palace gates.

Blocking the Song army outside the palace and trapping himself in the palace to death, this is the so-called death defense.Gong Chengshu sighed, he was already mentally prepared for the death of all the people in the imperial city, including himself, in order for the Celestial Master to achieve his goal.

Guo Chongyue was shouting loudly, commanding the defeated army to spread out at the top of the city and prepare to defend the city.

At this time, a palace guard with an indifferent expression came to him and said that the prime minister told him to go over.Although Guo Chongyue hated Gong Chengshu very much in his heart, he was also terrified of the latter. When he heard it, his first reaction was to run away as far as he could. Behind him, Hu Sanguang, who was dressed as a soldier, coughed lightly. , Guo Chongyue was shocked, but obediently followed the palace guards to meet Gong Chengshu.

After Guo Chongyue saw Gong Chengshu, he knelt down and shouted to meet the prime minister.Behaved with great respect.

Gong Chengshu glanced at it, and cursed as a waste, he wanted to change someone to command the army to guard the imperial city, but including himself, no one in the imperial city knows about military affairs, probably not as good as this Guo Chongyue, let alone at this time It's not good to just change generals.

He said impatiently, "How long can you hold on?"

Guo Chongyue said cautiously: "The imperial city wall is higher than the outer city wall. The Song army's ladder is not high enough. If we need to rebuild the ladder, we should be able to defend it for a long time."

Gong Chengshu said: "From now on, you should pay attention to listening to the truth's orders. You can guard as the truth tells you, and you can do whatever the truth tells you to do."

Guo Chongyue respectfully said yes, and did not look at Liu Yan during the period.

At this time, Han Yishan, the second most skilled guard in the Imperial Palace of the Southern Han Dynasty after Gong Chengshu, came to him and said in a low voice, "Song army spies have sneaked in. More than 100 people are all at the gate of the imperial city."

As he was speaking, he glanced at Guo Chongyue who was kneeling on the ground. The latter heard something faintly, and his expression changed drastically. He wanted to run away, but under Gong Chengshu's gaze, his whole body was weak, and he couldn't lift any strength at all, so he just sat slumped. on the ground.

A cold light flickered in Gong Chengshu's eyes, he looked at Guo Chongyue and smiled: "Tell me! Who are those people, otherwise you have heard of the truth's methods, don't wait until you have experienced the pain of life being worse than death, and then say it is not good gone."

Although Guo Chongyue was full of hatred and courage, he was not a tough guy and was afraid of death, so he said everything.

Standing at the highest point of the imperial city, Chen Jingyuan looked at everything in the capital of Nanhan, and seemed to see Ye Chen's body that made him desperately want to eat it in his stomach. His eyes became more blood red, and there was a faint glow of blood.He muttered to himself: "Ye Chen! The meaning of your appearance in this world is to let me eat you... eat you." There is a shocking inexplicable madness deep in his pair of blood eyes.

If Zhang Wumeng, Lou Yanming, Yufeng, and the dead old devil Yu were here, they would have seen at a glance that Chen Jingyuan was on the verge of madness, and even his mind had been affected.

At this time, the morning sun has risen, and the red light shines on the vermilion palace wall, and then reflects it, covering the entire palace city and a large square in front of it in a warm color, which is the place behind the palace. The clear and secluded moat is also permeated with a palpitating red, like fresh blood.

At this moment, a gust of morning wind swept over.Along with the wind, there were voices from all over the imperial city full of blood and murderous aura.It was the guards in the imperial palace who, under the orders of Gong Chengshu, went to various cities in the imperial city to intimidate and lure the Han army.It's nothing more than that if you don't fight to defend the city later, you will kill it.If you defend the city desperately, wait for the celestial master to cast a spell to kill the general of the Song army, and after the Song army is repelled, he will reward the meritorious soldiers and so on.

These Han soldiers are all soldiers from the capital of the Southern Han Dynasty, and their families and belongings are all in the capital. Gong Chengshu has been in arrears with the local army over the years, but the army in the capital has never been in arrears. When the Song army wiped out the Southern Han Dynasty, they would rob them of everything and make them and their families slaves. Although the combat power was not good, after some coercion and temptation, the morale was still improved a lot. Chill.There seemed to be tension in the air.
