The spies of the Imperial City Division are not good people. If the ghost wants to destroy all nine of their tribes, they will not sit still and wait for death.
Chen Lian raised his arms and called out. There were still more than two hundred people in the department.
In arresting Jianghu people, the Imperial City Division lost most of their manpower from the Arrest Division and the Investigation Division, while the manpower from other departments are still there.
After learning about the situation, everyone was unwilling to sit still and wait for death, and took up weapons to resist.
outside the door.
Forbidden Army captain Zu Linhao commanded the infantry at the door to open the door. A wave of crossbow arrows suddenly shot out from inside. The Forbidden Army was unprepared and dozens of them were shot to death.
"Shield!"
Zu Linhao shouted, the shield soldiers immediately moved forward to block the attack, and the infantry who hit the door immediately retreated.
Crossbow arrows also flew from the high walls around the Imperial City, and the crossbowmen of the Forbidden Army fired at them.
The southeast wind blew, and a burst of powder was scattered. The besieging Imperial Army was stained by the powder, and their eyes and noses immediately bled and screamed.
"Toxic, poisonous powder!"
The Imperial Guards shouted and retreated, not daring to come near.
Zu Linhao was furious, pointed inside and cursed: "This is the will of the Holy Son and the will of the Emperor. How dare you disobey it!"
In the yamen, a spy scolded: "I'm an immortal like you, the devil wants to destroy our nine tribes, so what if I disobey!"
Destroying the nine tribes is already the ultimate punishment. The spies inside are not afraid, so there is nothing to fear.
Zu Linhao was furious, drew his sword and shouted: "Attack!"
Two thousand Forbidden troops attacked at the same time, and the spies inside engaged in a trapped beast fight. Both sides were killed miserably.
From noon to night, the imperial army broke through the gate and Chen Lian retreated to Houya.
At night, Chen Lian gathered the people together and counted them carefully. There were still more than sixty people who could walk.
"Brothers, we have worked hard for Daliang for half our lives, and in the end we ended up destroying the nine tribes."
"Staying here means death, why don't you join me and join King Wu?"
"Speaking of which, I still have some friendship with King Wu. He is Liu An."
People in the department also knew that Long Chen was Liu An's affair, but it was far-fetched to say that Chen Lian and Long Chen were friends.
"There is also a secret passage here. Those who are willing to follow it can walk with me, Brother Xi. See you in the next life."
Chen Lian He stood up with the knife. He had been injured in Longxing Valley and was not in good health.
"What about the mother-in-law and the children?"
"My parents are still at home."
Chen Lian shook his head and said: "There is nothing we can do. The ghost has said that the nine tribes will be destroyed. If you stay here, you will die together. Come with me and leave some incense for the family."
These words are cruel, but they are true.
To stay here is to wait for death, and all nine clans will die together.
If you escape from here, you can still leave some incense behind, and at least you won't destroy the whole family.
"Thank you very much, Siwu Chen. My parents are old and can't bear to leave. I wish all brothers can escape."
A simple-looking man said.
This man is the cook of the Imperial City Division, he is very filial and considerate of his family.
He couldn't bear to leave his parents and children behind and chose to die together.
"Walk!"
Chen Lian stood up and opened a board, revealing a secret passage underneath.
I didn't leave during the day because I was worried about being discovered.
Postponing it until night, when it's dark, will increase the chance of escaping.
Those who could walk followed Chen Lian down the secret passage, while those who couldn't walked leaned against the wall and waited for death.
After the people left, the cook covered the board and moved something to cover it so that no one could see it.
Outside the door, Zu Linhao led his troops to attack again, and the imperial army suddenly burst in.
The cook rushed forward with a knife and was randomly stabbed to death by the imperial guards.
Looking at the wounded on the ground, Zu Linhao shouted: "Where is Chen Lian?"
No one said anything. Those left behind were all destined to die. There was no need for them to betray them before their death.
"Speak out and avoid death!"
Zu Lin deceived them.
One of the spies sneered: "Zu Linhao, who do you think you are? You can save us from death."
The people in the Imperial City Department are not stupid, and no one believes what Zu Linhao said.
"court death!"
Zu Linhao raised his sword and chopped off one of them, then asked the next one.
But no matter what
When I asked, the spies wouldn't tell me.
At this moment, the people of the Imperial City Division showed their integrity.
After killing everyone, Chen Lian was still not found.
"There must be a secret passage, find it for me!"
Chen Lian was furious, and his men immediately searched for it. They dug up three feet of ground in the backyard and finally found it.
"Captain Zu, here!"
Looking at the secret passage, he said: "Go down and chase!"
Zu Linhao did not chase him himself, he asked his soldiers to chase him.
The imperial army jumped into the secret passage and chased it for dozens of meters. The secret passage suddenly collapsed and everyone was buried underneath.
"Blow flies, each one is more thief than the other!"
"Find the Imperial City Secretary's roster, arrest people according to the roster, and destroy the nine tribes."
Chen Lian searched the company and found that the roster had been burned.
Chen Lian had already thought of this and burned the entire roster.
Zu Linhao became angry and cursed: "If you let someone expose it, the one who exposes it can take possession of the family property."
At dawn.
A carriage drove out of the mansion, and Wu'an King Li Zhaoliang was sitting in it. The streets were in chaos, and the imperial army arrested people everywhere and even killed them in the street.
"what happened?"
Li Zhaoliang asked strangely.
The groom replied: "Your Majesty, the leader of the Imperial City Division, Yu Fuguo, has surrendered to the enemy. The Holy Son has ordered the execution of the Imperial City Division, and everyone will destroy the nine tribes."
Li Zhaoliang was surprised, Yu Fuguo actually rebelled?
When the curtains are opened, the street is noisy and corpses can be seen from time to time.
After walking through a few streets, I suddenly saw several forbidden soldiers chasing a man.
When the groom saw the man, he was surprised and asked, "Why are we chasing our people?"
When the man saw the carriage, he immediately rushed towards it and shouted: "My lord, help me, please help me."
Li Zhaoliang got out of the carriage, saw the man, and said in surprise: "Laifu? What's wrong with you?"
This man was Li Zhaoliang's servant, named Laifu, who took care of his property.
Laifu cried and cried: "These Imperial Guards don't know what's going on. They actually falsely accused me of being from the Imperial City Division." Relatives, I want to kill the younger ones and seize the prince’s property.”
Li Zhaoliang felt baffled, how did it happen to him?
Several Imperial Guardsmen caught up and when they saw Li Zhaoliang's carriage, they only gave a slight salute.
Li Chengdao became a dog slave, and the prince Li Zhaoliang was worthless.
"Your Majesty, this person is a traitor from the Imperial City Division. Please hand him over to him."
The Imperial Guards are very arrogant.
Li Zhaoliang was furious and cursed: "This is my king's servant. How dare you confuse right and wrong and want to seize my king's property. Do you still have court laws in your eyes?"
The imperial guards looked at each other. They received a report that Laifu was a relative of the Imperial City Secretary and his family had a lot of property.
Such a fat sheep, the imperial army wanted to make a fortune.
I didn't expect to offend Li Zhaoliang.
"In that case, let's leave."
After saying that, the Forbidden Army left in a swaggering manner.
Li Zhaoliang was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to do anything.
The Daliang of today is no longer the Daliang of the past. In the past, Li Zhaoliang would have destroyed all nine of their tribes.
"Let's go back."
Li Zhaoliang sighed, and the carriage turned around and returned home.
The incident in the Imperial City Division turned Jinling City upside down. Many bullies and corrupt officials took the opportunity to make false accusations, labeling deer as horses. Many wealthy people were accused of being traitors. Tens of thousands of people were killed on the river bank outside Jinling City, and the river turned red.
.
Xianhe City.
Long Chen took the information sent by Jinling and felt heavy.
"The ghost's actions were extremely ruthless, and so were the officials in Jinling, implicating tens of thousands of innocent people."
The empress comforted: "What can we do? We can only break through Nanliang earlier and kill the ghost fetus."
Long Chen said: "Sooner or later, the ghost fetus will be cut into thousands of pieces!"
Yingfeng walked in and reported: "Your Majesty, General Gongsun has arrived."
Just as he finished speaking, Gongsun Linglong walked in from outside.
