When Li Baiyu rushed to the west city gate, a fight was going on at the gate.
One group is the Ouchi guards holding Yanling swords, and the other group is the clan guards wearing special armor.
Bodies fell on the ground, from both sides.
At a glance, Li Baiyu saw an old man who was guarded by a group of palace guards. The old man was dressed in purple brocade clothes. He was about seventy years old and had white beard and hair. As soon as he stood there, he had an aura of calmness and authority.
The man with an indescribable aura of nobility is none other than Li Chengzhong, the Zongren Mansion's Zongren.
Li Baiyu's great-uncle and Li Zheng's fifth uncle.
There was quite a commotion of Li Baiyu arriving with a large number of military generals. Li Chengzhong naturally heard the commotion and looked at Li Baiyu who was covered in armor, covered with blood, and his hair was disheveled. Li Chengzhong looked a little unnatural and subconsciously looked at Li Baiyu.
elsewhere.
Li Baiyu stared at Li Chengzhong closely for a moment, looking at the hundreds of masters fighting together under the city gate, and glanced around with dark eyes.
Looking at the gray-robed man Li Baiyu who had appeared, he waved his hand calmly.
"Quick fight, quick decision, killing without mercy."
Countless men in gray robes quickly leapt towards the city gate brandishing their weapons and joined the battle group.
The clan guards, who were able to face the Ouchi guards with ease, were instantly at a disadvantage when faced with the flying spy agents.
Li Chengzhong didn't panic at all, and his reaction shocked and panicked Li Baiyu.
Could it be that great-uncle Li Chengzhong still had some backup plans?
Just as Li Baiyu's thoughts came to his mind, thousands of people wearing clan guards' armor rushed out of the surrounding streets again.
The military commander behind Li Baiyu was slightly startled, and immediately drew out his sword to protect Li Baiyu behind him. He looked cautiously at the thousands of troops surrounding the city gate.
Li Chengzhong waved his hands with a faint smile on his lips.
"Hold them and delay the arrival of the King of Shu with his troops."
Next to Li Chengzhong, a young man of similar age to Li Baiyu nodded lightly, drew out the long sword from behind and waved it.
"My sons, come with me."
This person is Li Baiyu's cousin Li Shuo, Prince of Changhe County, and the direct grandson of Li Chengzhong.
Li Baiyu's wrist holding the Emperor's Sword was trembling a little, and he stared closely at Li Chengzhong who was twenty steps away.
"They are born from the same roots, so there is no need to rush into mutual conflict."
"Uncle, the late emperor has always treated you well. I have never treated you badly since I came to the throne. Why? Why do you do this kind of thing?"
Li Chengzhong looked a little embarrassed and gently tugged on the ring finger in his hand.
"Lao San and the others have entered the city. This order will give you an explanation."
Li Baiyu took a breath, turned over and dismounted, looked around, took out a bamboo tube from his arms and pulled it, and a flash of fire shot towards the sky.
In an instant, a dragon-like fireworks exploded in the sky.
Looking at the astonished Li Chengzhong, Li Baiyu smiled coldly.
"Do you really think that I don't have any trump cards? Old man, your death is not far away."
In the Prince's Mansion when Li Baiyu was still the Prince of the East Palace, a group of people put down their work one after another while looking at the dragon fireworks exploding in the sky.
A man in his early thirties took a deep breath and used his inner strength to shout, and his voice instantly spread throughout the prince's palace.
"Your Majesty is in trouble, summon the Hidden Dragon Guard to come to your rescue."
A moment later, thousands of people and horses rushed out of the large and small houses of the Prince's Mansion, carrying various weapons and leaping towards the city gate.
Judging from his figure, everything looks like a master.
"Uncle, there are about three thousand unidentified masters from the Prince's Mansion rushing towards the west gate."
A figure ran from a distance and stopped in front of Li Chengzhong. His face looked a little panicked.
Li Chengzhong forced himself to look at Li Baiyu calmly.
"Capture Hun Jun, the army will be here soon."
"Yes, brothers, come with me and capture the foolish king."
When Li Baiyu saw this, he held up the Emperor's Sword in his hand and sneered.
"Rebellious ministers and traitors, for the sake of your own selfish interests, are disrupting our country, the Li family, and our country. You will all be punished and killed!"
Dozens of spy agents who were guarding the surroundings fought towards the clan guards who were charging towards them.
The surrounding generals only protected Li Baiyu and did not rush to fight.
They have self-knowledge. Let them lead the army to charge into battle. They also have self-knowledge. Let them mix with the spy agents and fight with the masters trained by the clan for the royal family since childhood. Not only will it cause trouble for the spy agents and Ouchi guards.
At the same time, he is giving away his life for nothing.
They are all generals who crawled and rolled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Just because they are not afraid of death does not mean they will die in vain.
"Report, Your Majesty, a troop of 30,000 soldiers and horses were killed on the official road in the west of the city."
"Flag King Shu!"
Li Baiyu was startled and frowned.
The third brother actually expected to ambush a troop of troops and wait for the opportunity!
"My dear friends, let's go up the city wall."
"Yes, Your Majesty, be careful."
A group of military generals, together with some surrounding spies, began to surround Li Baiyu and rush towards the city wall cautiously.
Climbing the city wall, Li Baiyu and others saw without a telescope a cavalry force of more than 30,000 people charging towards the city gate on the official road a few miles west of the city.
Looking at the banner above the banner, Li Baiyu suddenly felt powerless.
In order to usurp the throne, these brothers have really been planning for a long time. 400,000 soldiers and horses are not their entire strength.
Li Baiyu sighed with a complicated expression.
"No wonder I sent a letter to the Golden Eagles of several prefectures around the capital, asking them to bring their left and right guards to the capital. King Qin did not receive a reply."
"I think all the state capitals around the capital have fallen."
The surrounding generals also sighed melancholy.
"Your Majesty, there is still a chance, there is still a chance."
"At worst, we retreat to the inner city."
"The inner city is as strong as the outer city. With the support of the national treasury, it can still hold on for four or five days."
"That's right, Your Majesty, we can retreat to the inner city, but before retreating to the inner city, we can take as much artillery as we can. If it cannot be taken away, it will be destroyed. It must not be left to the rebels."
Li Baiyu nodded silently.
"That's all it can do now."
"Your Majesty, look to the southwest."
Li Baiyu subconsciously looked up and saw a large army of about 20,000 cavalry and infantry moving quickly towards the rebels on the official road to the west to intercept them.
Li Baiyu looked at the King Jing's banner on the banner and waved his fist excitedly.
"Fourth brother, it's fourth brother."
The generals hurriedly looked outside the city and became excited when they heard Li Baiyu's words.
"That's great. With King Jing's help and reinforcements outside the city, the hope of defending the city has increased by 10%."
The two armies instantly clashed and charged to kill.
Dozens of horsemen came from the southwest guard to ride towards the city gate.
It is none other than Li Yunping, the fourth King of Scenery.
In a moment, Li Yunping, escorted by a group of soldiers, heard outside the moat and looked excitedly at Li Baiyu, who was safe and sound on the city wall.
"Brother!"
Li Yunping didn't call you Your Majesty, but called you big brother.
Li Baiyu hurriedly leaned out and looked at Li Yunping under the city wall: "Fourth brother, it's really you. Just wait a moment. Big brother will prepare hemp ropes to lift you up the city wall."
"My dear friends, prepare the hemp rope quickly."
"According to the decree."
Li Yunping turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee and stared at Li Baiyu.
"Brother, no need!"
Li Baiyu was startled: "Fourth brother, what are you doing?"
Li Yunping looked at Li Baiyu with scarlet eyes and shook his head miserably.
"The eldest brother Mingjian, the younger brother followed the second brother, and the third brother was forced to raise troops because he had no choice but to board the pirate ship by mistake."
"However, rebels are rebels. This is an iron fact. I can't argue with you and I don't want to defend myself."
"But my Li family's empire must not be destroyed in our hands."
"Fourth brother, please stop talking. Big brother, I forgive you. I forgive you."
Li Yunping shook his head silently.
"Brother, my wife and children are in the hands of the third brother. If we are lucky enough to successfully quell the rebellion."
"Meng Yun, Zeng Lu and the two sisters are not sure whether they will live or die."
"Li Guo, if Qinglu and his sister are still alive, I will have the elder brother to take care of the younger brother from now on."
"I know that my crime deserves death, so I can only retaliate with death to protect the 600-year-old inheritance of my ancestors of the Li family."
"Fourth brother, what are you going to do?"
Li Yunping gave a big salute to Li Baiyu, quickly got on his horse, drew his sword, and pointed at Li Yunlong's soldiers and horses on the official road in the west of the city.
"My sons, the time has come to kill the enemy and serve the country."
"Follow me to put down the rebellion!"
Looking back and staring deeply at Li Baiyu on the city wall, Li Yunping pulled the reins of his horse and rushed over with dozens of mounted guards.
Li Baiyu understood the meaning in his fourth brother's eyes.
That was because she hoped that she could forgive her princess for having a son and a daughter.
