The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 741
Standing in the barracks, Zhao Yanxun looked at the craftsmen in front of him making siege equipment with his hands behind his back.

Although a strong attack can take the capital, there will inevitably be casualties, which is unnecessary in Zhao Yanxun's view.

Therefore, if he can defeat others without fighting, Zhao Yanxun is willing to do his best.

When Lin Quan reported that Su Chuyun had plotted against the Zijin Gate defenders, Zhao Yanxun was naturally very happy.

"This Su Chuyun did not disappoint me!"

Lin Quan nodded, and said with a smile: "This is because the prince used the right person. He Su Chuyun is a great horse, but the prince, the bole, cannot be missed!"

Looking back at Lin Quan, Zhao Yanxun said with a smile: "You dog slave, you can talk!"

Lin Quan immediately said: "It's all the prince who trained him properly!"

The next moment, Zhao Yanxun suppressed his smile and said in a deep voice, "Hu Dabiao!"

"Chen is here!"

"Immediately send someone to order the Guards Division's northern and southern armies to rush to the Zijin Gate and prepare to launch a general attack!"

If you want to kill as few people as possible, then let the most elite people go.

The Southern Army of the Guard Division now has 2000 first-level soldiers, and the Northern Army has more than [-] second-level soldiers. These people are the strongest under Zhao Yanxun.

If these 1 people are allowed to enter the city, the situation in the capital will calm down without the intervention of other troops.

Hu Dabiao did not answer immediately, but asked: "My lord, can you let the people in the front guard of the palace also participate in the general attack?"

Zhao Yanxun glanced at Hu Dabiao and said, "Stop joining in the fun and concentrate on protecting the king!"

"Yes!"

Hu Dabiao could only turn around and deliver the order, he felt very aggrieved now.

Zhang Meng can get errands, and return to Yuanyang to escort the princesses to Beijing, but he can't get anything.

When Hu Dabiao left, Zhao Yanxun looked at the building of ordnance ahead, and then asked: "I told you to contact the Privy Council of the Changshi Division. Are they already on their way?"

"If you go back to the prince, they are all very active, and they started on the road yesterday afternoon..."

"It's just that the concubine and the others have to wait for Zhang Baihu to return before they can be escorted to Beijing!"

The officials of the palace are escorted by the Longyou Dusi, so the security is naturally lower, but these people are not afraid at all in order to hurry.

"Do you think you can win the capital today?"

This question was very abrupt, but Lin Quan didn't know how to answer it, and seemed extremely cramped for a while.

…………

After receiving Zhao Yanxun's order, the Guards Division's army quietly began to mobilize, while the Yong Army at Zhengyang Gate began to feign an attack to attract the attention of the defenders.

Inside Zijin Gate, Li Jinglong was in armor and had already returned to the barracks.

Above the gate tower, Li Jinglong asked his personal soldiers to guard the surrounding area and gathered his confidants together.

At this moment, he has fully explained his plan and is only waiting for his subordinates to express their opinions.

"My lord, I am willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright..."

"Humble positions are also willing!"

One after another, people expressed their attitudes. Li Jinglong's confidantes are also heroes who understand current affairs.

When everyone expressed their opinion, Li Jinglong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said immediately: "Everyone, you and I are very clear about King Yong's strength, the court is doomed to defeat!"

"For the lives of our family, this matter must be done no matter what, do you understand?"

Everyone in the room nodded, this is really not a joke.

"In the city, the guards on the left and right are still there, so we must open the city gate to lure the Yong army into the city before they react!"

"Also, after you go back, you have to explain clearly to the brothers below, this is to find a way for the big guys to survive!"

Li Jinglong instructed carefully, and everyone listened patiently.

When the discussion was about to end, Li Jinglong finally said: "Whoever dares to obstruct us, he will be shot to death!"

In other words, even a colleague of the yamen must be slaughtered without mercy.

"Yes!"

Everyone returned and conveyed the situation to their subordinates.

The officers and soldiers below were only a little surprised by this, and then accepted the choice of "juyi".

Inside the Zijin Gate, the army began to move abnormally. The first thing Li Jinglong had to do was to remove the stuffing in the gate hole.

This move will take at least ten minutes, and it is inevitable that there will be disturbances.

So naturally, the eunuch who supervised the army was attracted.

Walking to the inner side of the Wengcheng, the eunuch of the supervising army asked in a stern tone: "What are you doing?"

"Eunuch, we are strengthening the city defense!" Li Jinglong explained with a smile.

Pushing away Li Jinglong who was standing in front, the eunuch became more and more annoyed: "Reinforce the city defense? Who told you to strengthen the city defense? How did you strengthen it?"

Seeing this person walking towards the city, Li Jinglong moved his hand towards the handle of the knife, but said in his mouth: "Elder-in-law, strengthening the city defense is what we should do!"

However, the eunuch didn't listen to the explanation at all, and walked directly into the urn city, the inner city gate was ajar at the moment.

"Eunuch, there is nothing to see!"

Li Jinglong's words were ignored, and the eunuch scolded angrily: "Who made you open the inner city gate, you are so audacious!"

When the eunuch reprimanded him, Li Jinglong had already exchanged glances with the gatekeeper Baihu, and the purpose was clearly to kill.

Through the gap in the inner city gate, the eunuch saw that the blocking door was being removed inside.

The eunuch was deeply shocked, and at the same time, anger welled up in his heart.

But before he had time to question, he felt severe pain in his back, and he looked down to see that his abdomen had been stabbed in half.

"You...you..."

Looking at Li Jinglong approaching, the eunuch wanted to curse, but the severe pain made him unable to complete the sentence.

When he came to the eunuch who supervised the army, Li Jinglong said helplessly: "I told you, there is nothing to see... Who told you to be disobedient!"

The eunuch wanted to say something more, but Li Jinglong had no time to waste, so he directly chopped off his head again.

I only heard Li Jinglong say: "Let the brothers hurry up, and then send people to sneak out of the city and tell the Yong army to enter the city with the banner as a letter!"

Anyway, although what they are doing now is dangerous to a certain extent, Li Jinglong has to be careful.

"Yes!"

Another [-] minutes passed, and when the Yong army outside the Zijin Gate was gearing up, they finally got stuck on the gate in front of them, and the agreed three white flags appeared.

"Brothers, it's time to make contributions, let's go!"

The Northern Army of the Guard Division, these second-level soldiers, wearing a full set of armor, began to move towards the city wall.

Behind the northern army, there is a larger number of southern army, and they also started to march towards Zijinmen one after another.

At this time, in the distance, the Zijin Gate had slowly opened, and Li Jinglong was standing on the tower, paying close attention to the surrounding situation.

"Tell the brothers, don't let the troops on the left and right approach the Zijin Gate..."

"Yes!"

Li Jinglong's worries were justified. The large-scale advance of the Yong army was easily noticed by the surrounding troops.

Since the Yong army was about to launch an attack on the Zijin Gate, under the mobilization of the Ministry of War and the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, the surrounding troops would naturally come to reinforce them.

But what puzzled everyone was that the Yong army attacking at Zijinmen didn't even carry siege equipment. Could it be that they planned to fly over?
Wang Cunzhang, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, said angrily, "Why was the suspension bridge lowered?"

The next moment, he had a bad guess.

So he immediately ordered: "All the troops, rush to the Zijinmen immediately, if Li Jinglong's troops surrender to the enemy, they will be killed!"

After issuing the first order, Wang Cunzhang immediately said: "Order the left guards of the prison gate and let them all guard the imperial city!"

"Then order the right guard of the prison gate to evacuate Zhengyang Gate and rush to Zijin Gate at full speed!"

I have to say that Wang Cunzhang's response was very timely, but objectively speaking, it was still a step short.

When the nearest reinforcements were on their way, [-] second-level soldiers led by Lin Dagui had already passed through the inner city gate.

Behind them, there was a steady stream of Yong troops entering.

"kill……"

The tragic fight was staged inside the Zijin Gate.

And Li Jinglong, who had surrendered to the enemy, also led his subordinates to attack the "friendly troops" on the left and right walls.
