The Prime Minister's Mansion was bigger than expected, with a splendid manor and rockery corridors. Prime Minister Cui was so mad that he led a stream of running water in, forming a lake in the manor.
The two sides started a hand-to-hand battle, with Li Letian taking the lead and fighting at the front of the team. This is true even for the king of a country, not to mention the fish and dragon guards behind him. The emperor can risk his life, so naturally everyone can raise their heads and follow him to death.
Under such momentum, Li Letian's team kept moving forward. But he did not feel any joy in his heart. The battle had just begun, and it was not a happy time yet. Now his confusion was that he had not seen the prime minister until now.
The person in charge.
The servants and guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion almost fought on their own, which made it easier for Li Letian to advance. But Li Letian dared not let go. Even though the Prime Minister's Mansion's reaction was a little slow, it was so slow.
It still made him feel incredible.
Could it be that some accident happened?
What really determines the outcome of this game is not the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the 20,000 city defense troops. After defeating the Prime Minister's Mansion, he must rush to the barracks immediately to appease the army there. Baili Sheng is currently leading people on the street.
We went up to block the city defense troops, fearing that they would not be able to hold out for long.
"Wow yeah."
A strong man carrying a pair of axes jumped out from the crowd, yelling strangely, and rushed towards Li Letian with the two axes.
Because of Cheng Dalei, the empire has also developed a trend of using axes. Whether they are bandits or generals, as long as they have some strength, they all like to use axes to fight. As a result, the empire has fewer generals who use hammers and sticks.
Li Letian was not known for his strength. He pierced the opponent's front door with his spear and then swung it sideways to force the opponent back. The ruthless man with the ax just dodged slightly and then pounced on him again.
This guy is really fierce.
Li Letian really knew the other party in his heart. His surname was Liu, and his name was Liu Nongyue. His name sounded very elegant, but his temperament was very cruel, and he took pleasure in killing people. There are many people like this in the prime minister's house, and Prime Minister Cui only appoints people based on their talents.
Yes, it doesn't matter where you come from.
clang!
A man with a big gun stopped in front of Liu Nongyue, shook his head, and stretched out his arms to push him away.
"Come again!"
"That baby dares to act wild in front of grandpa before his fur is fully grown, so I'll give him a blow."
The person who came was none other than Ma Chao and Ma Meng Qi. He didn't quite understand the situation tonight, but he wasn't someone who cared about trivial matters. Just kill him as fast as he could. A big spear met Liu Nongyue's double axe.
With just three moves and two moves, he firmly gained the upper hand. In an instant, three or four more people jumped out and surrounded him.
This was the case all the way. Ma Chao had to face the siege of four or five people at the same time. But even so, he seemed to be calm and unhurried. On the contrary, Liu Nongyue and others were crushed to death, and they could only parry but not fight back.
.
"Your Majesty, be careful."
There was a flash of cold light, and a knife hit him. Tian Qi saw the opportunity quickly, and knocked Li Letian away diagonally, and used his body to meet the opponent's knife. The knife penetrated along the gap in the leather armor, and then went in.
Go in, and blood will flow out.
Tian Qi gritted his teeth and grabbed the opponent's wrist fiercely. Li Letian was also shocked. The attacker was sure and accurate with his moves. It seemed that he was carefully trained by the Prime Minister's Mansion specifically for assassination.
If Tian Qi hadn't blocked the knife for him at the critical moment, his life would have been at stake here. Li Letian stabbed the opponent straight with his spear, leaving a bloody hole in the opponent's throat. At this time, Tian Qi was already dead.
Li Letian shook his head gently, not even having time to sigh. Today's bloody battle was destined to result in heavy casualties, and what he had to do was to struggle for a glimmer of life in the doomed situation.
Use blood and flesh to struggle for a glimmer of life.
The situation is gradually going against Li Letian. It seems that the other party has also recognized the principle of catching the thief first. After discovering Li Letian, seven or eight people rushed towards him at the same time. More and more people died around Li Letian, and Ma Chao was stalked.
Well, there is no way to help him now.
At this moment, a group of people poured in from outside the gate. A burly man rushed to Li Letian's side, and also used a big gun to immediately kill several people who were besieging Li Letian.
"Good man, what's your name?"
"Your Majesty, the common man Lu Junyi."
"After tonight, you will no longer be a commoner."
Then, Li Letian's eyes fell on Baili Sheng. Baili Sheng clasped his hands into fists, and it was impossible to salute at this time.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates are incompetent, and the city defense army has come to kill me."
Sure enough, the 800 people of Baili Sheng cannot stop the 20,000 city defense troops. Is he destined to die here today? Li Letian took a deep breath. It is impossible to think too much at this time. He must cut off his retreat and move forward.
.
"Kill with me!"
As soon as the spear was raised, the emperor rose up in majesty. Baili Sheng simply agreed. At this moment, everyone was putting life and death aside and would not talk about anything else tonight.
After Bai Lisheng brought people over, especially after Lu Junyi appeared, Li Letian had already taken all the advantages on the current battlefield.
One is Lu Junyi and the other is Ma Mengqi. Both of them are brave enough to be defeated by ten thousand men. It is no exaggeration to say that the two of them can sweep the prime minister's palace together.
Rushing all the way forward, fighting all the way, the two of them were fighting at the front of the team, and they also had the intention of competing with each other.
Li Letian nodded secretly in his heart. Such a heroic man actually showed up today. It is true that God will not destroy me. If he had such a general at hand, how could he be reduced to today's situation.
The servants of the prime minister's house who were guarding the courtyard gradually became like birds and beasts. The young ladies and young masters of the Cui family were killed by swords when they encountered them. If Li Letian wins this round, they will definitely end up being slaughtered. If Li Letian cannot win,
, now it is natural to kill one more person.
"Where is the old thief? Where is the old thief?"
Li Letian held a big gun and screamed. Killing many people is not as effective as killing one Prime Minister Cui, but until now, Prime Minister Cui has not shown up. Li Letian was excited. Could the old thief have escaped?
I have neglected this section. Once the old thief escapes, the city defense army will not be able to obey him, and the result will only be a failure.
However, this cannot be blamed on Li Letian. His troops were only two thousand, and it was not easy to break through the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. He did not have enough troops to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Old thief, where are you!"
Angry and frightened, Li Letian roared and kicked open the door in front of him. As soon as he stepped into the house, he was stunned.
There were candles burning in the room, and there was also a dark coffin.
Cui Xiang...is dead.
Li Letian was worthy of being the emperor of the empire, and he was not at all confused about this kind of thing. He immediately understood that Prime Minister Cui had passed away, and the Prime Minister's Mansion had kept the funeral secret because he was worried that Cui Yunjian would not be able to control the situation.
When you are in the most difficult situation, the enemy is also in the most difficult situation.
