Chapter Thirteen: The East and the West

These five hundred soldiers, the elite Tang Dynasty and the recruited masters each accounted for half.

During the previous preparation process, many recruited masters couldn't help but feel a little upset because they had been staying in the Huang Zongwang Mansion's for many consecutive days.

At this time, Lin Renzhao, who rushed back from Guizhou, took action. He first "friendly" with several thorny masters, showed off his magical weapons and successfully "subjugate with strength"; the special soldiers took turns to join in battle, accompanying these masters with delicious food and drink every day, and "subjugate with measurement" from time to time; here, they used the money of Huang Zongwang, the richest man of Chu, and then "subjugate with virtue". Taking several measures, these masters became honest and willingly obeyed their commands.

Late last night, Lin Renzhao sneaked to Zhang Longxing's mansion with 240 masters and successfully joined 260 elite troops of the Wuchang Army of the Tang Dynasty, waiting for news from Xuanwu Gate. However, the background news that Feng Jingyun just gave was that Ma Xi'e was resentful that his brother Ma Xichong took away all his power and secretly undermined himself. He decided to use the help of the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to eradicate Ma Xichong and all his subordinates.

Lin Renzhao's face was covered in ferociousness and whispered: "It is reported that the King of Chu and his relatives were not in the King of Chu's Mansion. Therefore, after entering the mansion, all the living people were killed! After the matter was completed, the King of Chu promised to give each person another 500 stakes! However, when I said that, no matter who it was, the robbers were killed while the robbers were killed, and the traitors and the traitors were killed!"

Seeing Lin Renzhao's fierce eyes swept over, many masters with scattered thoughts couldn't help but lower their heads and avoided his gaze.

After Lin Renzhao finished speaking, he turned around to Zhou Qizhi who was coming in. Yan Ruoli nodded slightly, waved his hand, and Yan Rusu and Zhou Ruxing walked out from behind. They sneaked into the Chu Palace last night, basically finding out the troops deployment of the Chu Palace and the residence of Ma Xi'e and Ma Xichong. Qin Hansheng and Liu Qi also walked in from outside the door and temporarily assigned to Lin Renzhao for command.

After the four men finished changing their horses, Zhou Qizhi and the others immediately went out, turned over and led the team straight back to the east gate of the King of Chu's Mansion. Lin Renzhao waved his hand lightly and led five hundred elite soldiers to the west gate of the King of Chu's Mansion and the north gate.

The horse's hooves flipped, and a hundred cavalry quickly arrived at the east gate of the Chu Palace. At this time, hundreds of guards from the palace gathered at the door and were ready for battle.

Just now, a large group of cavalry and infantry passed by the Chu King's Mansion, which disturbed the soldiers guarding the gates and immediately reported to the boss. After hearing the news, the responsible captain quickly transferred some of the guards in the mansion and sent soldiers to various city gates to inquire about the news.

Seeing a team of cavalry coming, the gatekeeper immediately drew his sword in his hand and shouted sternly: "Who is the one? You must not ride a horse in front of the King of Chu's mansion! All of them are dismounted and remove their weapons!"

Zhou Qizhi and Yan Ruoli put his left hand behind him and made a gesture to the soldiers behind him. Instead of dismounting, they drove the horse forward and took two steps forward. At the same time, they shouted in panic: "Report to the general that soldiers of unknown origin have raided Xuanwu Gate. Commander Xu Wei and Xu have successfully calmed down the invaders, sent us to report to the King of Chu, and at the same time sent troops to each gate to check for safety."

"Oh, so that's it." The captain's expression relaxed, but he was a little surprised in his heart. They were all cavalrymen. Why did the people who reported the news come later than the soldiers sent to the South Gate? Thinking of this, he looked up and pointed at Zhou Qizhi and shouted sternly: "Do Commander Xu have official documents? Take it out!"

"Yes, it's here!" Zhou Qizhi stretched out his hand and threw a bag on the horse's neck over.

What kind of document is this? How can I use a baggage? The captain took the round baggage in confusion. He untied it and saw Xu Wei's painful and terrifying ugly face immediately appeared in front of him.

Just as the commander caught the burden, Zhou Qizhi and Yan Ruoli kicked the horse's belly with both legs and rushed towards the door of the mansion. The cavalry landed behind them immediately rushed to the horse.

"Ah--" The captain just screamed in surprise, and Zhou Qizhi's horse had already rushed to his side. The sharp blade passed through his throat, cutting off his scream!

"Kill the traitor Ma Xichong and save the King of Chu!" Zhou Qizhi shouted loudly, and the horse rushed straight towards the door of the mansion five meters away.

Following Zhou Qizhi's shouting, the other cavalry also shouted loudly: "Save the King of Chu! Save the King of Chu!"

The cavalrymen still shouted when they rushed like this. There were soldiers running over the wall inside and outside the palace gate. The guards were a little stunned. What's going on?

Just when they were stunned and hesitant, the cavalry who had successfully raised their speed had already scattered into the soldiers in front of the mansion, slashing and slashing, and the scene was already chaotic.

A few shrill sounds of alarm drums sounded from the corner buildings on both sides of the mansion wall, and a large number of guards began to run along the mansion wall toward the east gate.

Zhou Qizhi and Yan Ruoli advanced together, and two special steel blades swung down fiercely. When the person hit the person, the knife fell down, and the knife was broken. Within a few breaths, two tall horses had already rushed through the mansion gate and crashed hard towards the guards running from the mansion gate to the outside.

Behind them, some of the cavalry had already lined up in two rows and rushed towards the mansion gate.

Zhou Qizhi drove the horse and fell down several people in a row. Seeing that the horse's speed was slowing down, many spears and steel knives were stabbed around him at the same time, he shouted: "Drop off the horse! The wall of the mansion!" While the man was rising up, he pulled the knife in his hand hard on the horse's neck.

The mount neighed with pain, and several guns had stabbed the horse in the body at the same time. The horse, which had no breathing, leaned forward because of its strong inertia, and suddenly pushed several guards to the ground.

Zhou Qizhi, who had landed, had a knife-hiding style in all directions. The sword light flashed and cut down the three guards beside him. The man turned around and ran to the stairway on the south side of the mansion. On the other side, Yan Ruoli also cut down the people around him and rushed towards the stairway on the north side.

At this time, dozens of guards outside the mansion had been completely exploded by one hundred cavalrymen. More and more soldiers shouted and drove their horses to attack the mansion.

The horses that followed were still struggling forward, causing the chaotic guards to even more chaotic.

While the chaos was happening here, Qin Hansheng, a special forces archer who was stealing forward, shot out his deadly magic arrow again, and shot the sentry on the corner tower at the northwest corner of the Chu King's Mansion. With the help of two special forces soldiers, Lin Renzhao took the initiative to rush up to the three-meter-high mansion wall. The special forces soldiers took the lead, and the other soldiers set up ladders and rushed towards the mansion wall.

Because the brigade of troops had been removed by the alarm sound at the east gate, Lin Renzhao, Liu Qi, Qin Hansheng, and three others were like crazy tigers, cleared the only soldiers on the mansion wall, jumped off the mansion wall, and headed to the west gate and the north gate. More and more soldiers successfully stepped onto the mansion wall, and the heads separated. The four teams of troops on and below the mansion wall quickly rushed west and north to kill.

The four teams were like long dragons that had been stinging for a long time, and they were soaring into the sky and moving forward quickly, cutting down everyone they met along the way to the ground.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Lin Renzhao ran to the west gate, cut down several guards in a few seconds, opened the west gate, and released the soldiers outside the gate in.

According to the distribution of the Chu King's Mansion in advance and the division of labor set beforehand, Liu Qi led the soldiers and masters into four routes to sweep south at the same time. Lin Renzhao led six special forces soldiers and twenty selected experts from the Tang army to directly attack Yangxin Hall next to the Jiulong Hall.

According to Yan Ruosu's reconnaissance last night, there were open and secret whistles around Yangxin Hall last night, and there were either Ma Xi'e or Ma Xichong.

As Yangxin Hall approached, Lin Renzhao waved his hand back, three special forces soldiers took the lead, and twenty military experts followed closely behind, scattered with the cover of the big trees in the mansion, secretly surrounding the entire Yangxin Hall, and he himself led the three special forces soldiers to the south gate of the hall.

"Who?! Stop!" A sharp shout came out, and four guards rushed out from the rockery in front of Yangxin Hall, pointing at Lin Renzhao with their swords.

"I am Lin Renzhao, I'm here to protect you!" Lin Renzhao clasped his fists and kept walking forward.

"Stop! General Lin, why are you here? Why are you wearing our Chu uniform? What's going on outside the mansion? Why are there an alarm?" A middle-aged guard in the lead asked in a row of cannons, while drawing his sword in his hand, looking at Lin Renzhao vigilantly.

"Ma Xichong planned to rebel. He sent Xu Wei to siege the Dongchengmen military camp last night. We came out in chaos and came to protect the King of Chu!" Lin Renzhao said quickly, and walked forward, only three meters away from the guard.

The middle-aged guard was shocked and angrily scolded: "Nonsense! The horse envoy is resting in the Yangxin Hall, this is a rumor!"

Unlucky! How could it be Ma Xichong? Lin Renzhao immediately pretended to be surprised and said, "Is it Xu Wei's private rebellion? Then I have to meet Ma's envoy to ask what happened?"
