Iron Dynasty

emperor!

Du Heng and Concubine Zhen were shocked, and Xiao Wenxuan's words shocked them too much.

I know my body. Even if I escape from Chang'an, I will not be able to withstand this long journey. What's more, the prince wants my life. If I don't die, he will pursue you closely.

At this moment, Xiao Wenxuan's weak body suddenly became straighter. He thought a lot while lying on the bed these days, and he also made a decision in his heart.

Du Heng said in a hurry: Your Majesty, the country cannot live without a ruler for a day. If the Emperor does not leave, the world will be in chaos.

Your Majesty, General Du's words are right. Keeping Qingshan is not afraid of running out of firewood. As long as the Emperor can escape from Chang'an and go to Qingzhou, summoning the division of King Qin of the Sifang will surely be able to quell the rebellion of the Prince and King Zhao.

Cough, cough, you think King Zhao is too simplistic. Since he has an absolute basis for his dangerous moves this time, and other vassal kings with different surnames also have their own ghosts, now that King Zhao has turned against them, they must also I will take the opportunity to stand on my own. Xiao Wenxuan said.

Concubine Zhen said: Your Majesty, there is no different surnamed vassal king, but we still have King Yong, King Wei and Ming'er. They are still loyal to the royal family.

Yes, there are them, but I'm afraid I can't wait for that day. Xiao Wenxuan suddenly coughed violently, and a trace of blood suddenly flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Your Majesty. Concubine Zhen became more and more flustered.

Xiao Wenxuan spat out the blood in his mouth, he sneered: It seems that they have a clear plan of when I will die, you don't have to say it again, Du Heng, no matter what, we will send Concubine Zhen to King Qi, Otherwise, the King of Zhao will use Concubine Zhen as a threat. At that time, the King of Qi will risk his own life to save him, and if he fails to save him, he will be reviled by the world as unfilial. This is my last order.

There were tears in Du Heng's eyes. He followed Xiao Wenxuan for 20 years, from the golden army to the domination of the world, and he understood that many people in this big Yu country called him a faint-hearted, weak and incompetent.

But having been by Xiao Wenxuan's side all these years, he also understands that today's Great Yu Kingdom has accumulated deep abuses, so serious that his emperor is powerless.

He thought that if it wasn't for Xiao Wenxuan's dealings in these years, today's Great Yu Kingdom would have been divided into seven countries. Of course, he also admitted that Xiao Wenxuan was not a perfect person, and he also had his own shortcomings.

It is precisely because of his obsession with the throne that he was temporarily confused and let the barbarians enter the customs.

Yes, Your Majesty, even if the last commander's life is sacrificed, the last commander will send Concubine Zhen away safely. Du Heng knelt on the ground and said resolutely.

While the three of them were talking, a sudden shout of kill sounded outside the Clear Water Pavilion.

Du Heng stood up abruptly, he understood that it was the imperial guards of the outer palace who had rushed over.

Xiao Wenxuan also looked outside the Bishui Pavilion at this time. He picked up a sharp sword from the ground and walked slowly outside the Bishui Pavilion. Then he said to Du Heng, Remember what you promised me.

Du Heng nodded fiercely and said to the soldiers behind him, Protect Concubine Zhen.

Concubine Zhen wanted to go out with Xiao Wenxuan, but was immediately stopped by Du Heng and the soldiers in the yard. Looking at Xiao Wenxuan who was walking towards the battlefield with difficulty step by step, Concubine Zhen's tears flowed down drop by drop.

The prince outside the Bishui Pavilion led the guards of the outer palace to arrive and led more than 6,000 guards of the outer palace to launch an attack.

The sound of artillery fire outside the city was getting closer, which was a signal that the firearms battalion was constantly approaching, so he had to kill Xiao Wenxuan before the firearms battalion broke through the palace.

Whoever takes Du Heng's head will be awarded the title of Marquis of Wanhu, and the reward will be 10,000 taels!

The thirst for the throne had driven the prince into a frenzy, and he was screaming like a raging beast.

The soldiers shouted and rushed to the inner palace guards guarding in front of the Bishui Pavilion. The soldiers under the heavy reward were also crazy. They continued to attack the battle formation formed by the inner palace guards, and their morale was boosted by twice the number of people.

Casualties continued to appear, and the inner palace guards kept retreating in the face of enemies twice their size. Although they were equally brave, the disadvantage of numbers was sometimes irreparable.

When the palace was in a fierce battle, Chang'an City had already turned into a pot of porridge.

The city defense battalion closed the gate of Chang'an City at this time to prevent troops other than King Zhao from entering the city, and there was a multi-party melee in Chang'an City.

The Youwuwei, who was dispatched by the prince, quickly rushed to Suzaku Street to charge the Firearms Battalion, but fell back step by step under the fierce attack of the Firearms Battalion.

At the same time, the news of the prince killing the monarch spread throughout Chang'an City amid the shouts of the scouts. Some generals and ministers joined the firearms camp without hesitation after confirming the news, while some ministers were busy packing up and preparing to flee. And more ministers were trembling with fear, they prayed not to affect themselves, and were ready to congratulate the new king.

Fire!

Bang bang bang...

Luo Hong commanded the musket team to steadily advance toward the imperial city. The training in Qingzhou had already taught him how to command the musket team. Under the continuous firepower of the three-stage shooting, the soldiers of the Right Wuwei who rushed over fell one by one.

But ten times as many enemies rushed over and over again, as if they would never kill them all.

Luo Quan and Luo Hong stood together, and the power of firearms shocked him. If it was before, how could these people from the Firearms Battalion be able to defeat You Wuwei's people so easily.

When they were fighting with Youwuwei, there was chaos behind Youwuwei, and then a large number of people came from the west. Luo Quan immediately picked up the binoculars to observe, and then he was overjoyed, It's the third prince and the fourth prince. .

Fiji was just behind Luo Quan, and he said, This third prince is really too careful. If we hadn't attacked first, he would have been waiting.

The King of Chu is an old fox, but he is just a little fox. Luo Quan scolded, and then he said to Luo Hong, Just take advantage of this and defeat them immediately.

Luo Hong nodded, now that You Wuwei was attacked by both sides, and when it was time to defeat it in one fell swoop, he immediately let the soldiers attack violently.

Under the attack of the Zuowuwei and the Firearms Battalion, the Youwuwei soon became chaotic, and a large number of soldiers fled without a fight.

The imperial city was right in front of them, and after the joint attack, Zuo Wuwei and the Firearms Battalion seemed to have a tacit understanding and headed towards the imperial city.

At the same time, a group of ministers who shouted Save the Emperor rushed out with their own soldiers and generals.

Before reaching the imperial city, the soldiers of Zuo Wuwei immediately launched a siege. The soldiers carried the ladder to climb the city wall. At this moment, a burst of cannons suddenly sounded, and the cannons on the inner palace wall poured out the cannonballs.

Luo Hong was shocked, and he immediately shouted: Pull the artillery up and smash the city gate, hurry up!

Your Majesty, what kind of artillery is there in your inner palace? Luo Quan also jumped.

Some of the artillery pieces that Xiao Wenxuan bought from Qingzhou were placed outside the city gate, and some were placed in the palace for garrison, and now these artillery pieces have become the biggest obstacle for them to attack the city.
