What kind of moral character does the sixteenth son of the emperor have today? He is licentious, cruel and unkind, and even spares the wives and daughters of his subordinate officials. Is there any value in using this kind of guy who has little success but more than failure?
The driving force behind the scenes took advantage of the fact that the sixteenth son of the emperor had not yet completely ruined his family fortune, so he simply pushed him to the top of the wave and asked him to fight the empress dowager alone.
Otherwise, if the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor is allowed to indulge for another month or two, his soldiers will not be able to tolerate his crazy and perverted behavior. It would be a trivial matter for everyone to betray their relatives and alienate them, and they might even conspire to assassinate him.
Therefore, when it's time to sell your teammates, you must sell your teammates so that the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor can die appropriately and exert his maximum effectiveness.
The empress dowager and the man behind the scenes, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, one deliberately exposes flaws, and the other deliberately sells out his teammates. As a result, the two hit it off immediately, and they acted out today's situation of the emperor's sixteenth son rebelling.
It wasn't until this moment that Zhou Xingyun and Xu Zhiqian realized that they were just little kids making trouble, and adults were watching their performance behind the scenes.
To be honest, Zhou Xingyun had noticed something was wrong a long time ago. He even suspected that the Queen Mother did not want His Royal Highness to ascend the throne. Only today did he understand that the Queen Mother had good intentions...
Why did the empress dowager deliberately use a flaw to let the mastermind find the right opportunity to abandon the sixteenth son of the emperor, knowing that she would lose her troops?
Poor parents in the world, the Empress Dowager wants to take this opportunity to eradicate the Sixteenth Son of the Emperor and his faction, and at the same time, let Han Feng win over the people, lay the foundation, and succeed to the throne as emperor...
Zhou Xingyun, Xuanyuan Chongwu, Xu Zhiqian, Jin Runer, Han Qiumi and others can basically conclude that after the rebellion is put down, it will be the time for His Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne.
Soon enough, a dazzling firework flashed under the dark night sky.
"The decisive battle... has begun." Zhou Xingyun stood on the high platform of Juxian Building, looked into the distance and took a deep breath.
"How is Mr. Zhou's injury?" Isabel walked to him with a smile and stretched out her hand seemingly gently to touch the stab wound on his abdomen.
"This is..." Zhou Xingyun lowered his head in surprise, only to see that the stitch wound on his abdomen was like frozen meat, creaking and spreading frost.
The strange thing is that his wound was frozen by the ice and looked white and frosty, but he didn't feel cold at all.
"The little girl used the extreme cold ice heart technique to freeze the injury for an hour. However, if the adult uses the Jianhuang Kung Fu and the ice and fire attributes conflict, it will not be predictable by the civilian girl."
Isabel is the commander of the airborne special attack team tonight, and 1,200 people from all walks of life must obey her command.
"Sister Xuannv, don't call me sir, I am your fiancé after all."
Sister Xuannu is so annoying. She always likes to keep a distance from him, making him look at her with greedy eyes but unable to eat anything.
No, Zhou Xingyun said it bluntly, but Isabel smiled and said nothing, deliberately torturing him...
One thousand two hundred warriors jumped from the top of Juxian Building and flew to the high wall of the mansion area.
Everyone followed the pre-arrangement, and every two first-class warriors assisted one of the top warriors to fly across in a relay manner, and delivered 300 people to the high wall of the mansion area.
On the other side, outside the high wall of the mansion area, Han Qiumiao received the secret message, and the corners of his charming mouth raised slightly.
"Finally you can't sit still... The whole army is obeying orders and preparing to attack the city!"
Han Qiumiao gave an order, and the eight thousand rebel troops immediately moved into action and began to assemble siege ladders outside the high wall gate.
Assembling the siege ladder was done at night, so it was difficult for the rebels on the tower to detect it.
What's more, the rebels' attention was almost entirely focused on the craftsmen forging armor and the people in the capital who were shouting loudly, so they didn't notice that Han Qiumiao was preparing to attack the city.
The sixteenth son of the emperor summoned elite troops to storm the imperial city tonight. Currently, there are only more than 4,000 rebels stationed at the high wall.
Moreover, the more than 4,000 rebels stationed at the high wall were all defeated troops who had been stationed at the gate of the capital a while ago and returned in vain.
The four thousand rebels with low morale were all huddled in the city wall and fortress fearfully, fearing that the counterinsurgent army would launch an attack tonight.
After all, the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor has mobilized all the elite troops to attack the imperial city. They can only pray silently that the quelling army will continue to forge armor tonight and never attack the city.
However, God seemed to be deliberately joking with them. As soon as the sixteenth emperor commanded 40,000 armored soldiers to attack the imperial city, the quelling army outside the high wall blew the horn of attack.
"Drive." A group of cavalry dragged the siege ladder with ropes and approached the high wall at an extremely fast speed. The shield soldiers wearing armor followed closely behind and charged with all their strength.
The attack horn sounded loudly, and the soldiers of the quelling army charged in an orderly manner. Except for the sound of footsteps, horse hooves, and the sound of the wheels of the ladder truck, everyone tried to remain silent, because the sound would reveal their movements.
Under the cover of darkness and the shouts of the people in the capital, the quelling troops rushed to the bottom of the high wall in one go.
It was not until the ladder was leaning against the high wall that the rebel soldiers stationed on the tower discovered that the counterinsurgent army was attacking from the right wall.
"Enemy attack! There is an enemy setting up a ladder on the right side of the wall! Go and support the guards!" The rebels on the observation deck panicked and hurriedly shouted to the friendly troops below.
"Where are they? Where are they? Say it again!" The friendly forces were also very anxious, because the shouts and curses of the people in the capital seriously affected their dialogue.
"Right side of the wall!" The rebels on the observation deck quickly gestured and used body language to tell the friendly troops that the enemy was attacking from the right side.
However, before the rebel on the observation deck finished his action, a sharp arrow fell from the sky, penetrated his Adam's apple, and strangled him on the observation deck.
The rebels stationed on the high wall are different from the quelling troops attacking the city. They need vision to defend the city, so more or less torches are lit on the wall to prevent enemies from sneaking in.
In other words, when the rebels looked at the quelling troops, except for some sporadic firelight at the craftsmen's platform and the iron smelting furnace, the rest of the place was basically pitch black and blurry.
The counterinsurgent army looked at the rebels as if they were in a dark alley, monitoring people in private houses through bright window sills.
Therefore, the beautiful arrow team commanded by Mu Ya once again sent justice from the sky, launching missiles at the rebels on the city wall, and covering our troops' landing on the high wall.
In this situation where I can see you but you can't see me, the four thousand rebels stationed on the high wall have no idea where the arrows are coming from, let alone... how many people were dispatched by the quelling army?
Siege the city.
You know, after one day and two nights, Han Qiumiao forged at least more than 10,000 armors.
The four thousand rebels stationed at the high wall could not help but tremble in their legs just thinking about the approaching twenty thousand enemies.
The four thousand rebels who stayed behind to guard the high wall were not elite warriors. They were defeated soldiers who had just been defeated at the gate of the capital. Now they are isolated and helpless, and they are attacked by 20,000 rebel troops at night. Can they hold their own? The answer is self-evident...
At this point, Han Qiumiao had to thank Wang Yushi for his advice to the Sixteenth Son of the Emperor, encouraging him to concentrate his elite troops to attack the imperial city and let the poorly equipped defeated soldiers stay behind the high wall. In this way, it would be much more difficult for the rebel army to conquer the high wall.
significantly reduce.
"General Xiahou, send the order and light the beacon!" Han Qiumiao ordered Xiahouyan to light the smoke outside the city gate. She wanted to let the Sixteenth Prince know that they were starting to attack the high wall.
I believe many people understand the reason why Han Qiumiao did this.
If you want to win the war, you must not miss any opportunity to increase your winning rate. Han Qiumiao lit the beacon outside the door. It was actually a psychological game to let the sixteenth son of the emperor and the rebels attacking the imperial city know that there was a fire in their backyard.
As a result, the rebels who attack the imperial city will be anxious, panicked, afraid, and make mistakes.
The Sixteenth Prince will be caught off guard, hesitant to retreat, and fall into chaos.
Now, whether the Sixteenth Emperor's son returns to defend the high wall or continues to attack the imperial city, Han Qiumiao is happy to see the outcome.
In the former case, the emperor's sixteenth son ordered the soldiers to return to defend the high wall, and the imperial city guards could switch from defense to offense, contain them, prevent them from retreating, chase them and beat them, and make the rebels defeated like a mountain.
In the latter case, the sixteenth son of the emperor continued to attack the city. When they learned that the rebels were on fire in the backyard, they must have been panicked. Because they all knew that the four thousand soldiers left behind to guard the high wall were not reliable at all.
Once the high walls of the palace area are lost and they fail to capture the imperial city, they will end up in a desperate situation and be flanked by enemy forces at the gate of the imperial city.
Han Qiumiao really wanted to see what kind of expression the sixteenth prince would have on his face after seeing the beacon fire... His current appearance must be very interesting.
On the tower of the imperial city, Han Feng, Xuanyuan Tianhen and others looked up at the beacon fire in the distance and clenched their fists with excitement.
It seems that Han Qiumiao lighting the beacon will not only frighten the rebels, but also boost the morale of the imperial city guards.
When the imperial city guards discovered that the sixteenth son of the emperor was leading 40,000 armored troops and wanted to attack the imperial city, everyone's hearts instantly went cold.
None of the Imperial City guards expected that the Sixteenth Emperor secretly had a trump card, 40,000 well-equipped armored troops.
Everyone knew in their hearts that if 40,000 armored troops desperately attacked the imperial city, they could only last for a day and a half at most.
However, when the imperial city guards discovered that thick fireworks were rising from the sky not long after the rebels launched their offensive, and knew that they only had to defend the imperial city, reinforcements would come to rescue them. Everyone's mood suddenly changed.
Resurrection.
In contrast, the sixteenth son of the emperor had a look of disbelief on his face and stared at the smoke behind him.
No matter what you are afraid of, you will get what you want. The blazing beacon fire is like the orange light of sunset, making the night sky dim and gorgeous.
"How could this happen! How could this happen!" The Sixteenth Emperor asked twice, wondering why Han Qiumiao would launch an offensive tonight.
"Report! The imperial censor, the minister of Taichang Temple, the minister of rites and all the officials have surrendered to the enemy!"
Bad news came one after another. The Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor had just ordered 40,000 armored troops to attack the imperial city with all their strength. Within twenty minutes, Han Qiumiao actually began to attack the high wall of the residence area.
In addition, the spies reported in fear that Wang Yushi and a group of civil servants, along with private soldiers and servants, defected to the enemy and cooperated with Princess Yongming to attack the high wall from both inside and outside.
Now the sixteenth prince’s question, ‘How could this happen?’, naturally has the answer.
Because many of Wang Yushi's officials rebelled and secretly defected to the enemy, Princess Yongming was able to learn the inside story, find out the right time, and take advantage of the opportunity when he was attacking the imperial city.
