Two hundred and ninetieth chapters [Snow Night] (sixteen)(2/2)
The same "cleaning" happened in several defense areas in the imperial capital.
Arc de Triomphe, Guangfu Gate, Xiyuan Defense Zone, Achilles Street...
In the defense zones taken over by Thunder Whip, the direct officers of the Luolin family were carrying out one "secret cleaning" after another.
According to the statistics afterwards, on that night, in the second division of Thunder Whip, known as one of the four elite divisions of the Empire, a total of 321 officers were "purged". Among these people, there were civilians, elites trained by the Imperial Military Academy, future stars that the Imperial Military Department focused on training, and even a few officers who came from the Luolin family but refused to be killed.
All the elite military officers trained by the empire through countless financial and material resources were massacred on this snowy night!!
Most of them were buried in a hurry on the spot, and their names were quickly hooked up in the military list. Many of them were also slandered for treason and conspiracy.
Just half a year after the end of this coup, during the process of cleaning up the Water Gate of the Empire, a fisherman dug out several corpses tied to stones and sank to the bottom of the river under the Water Gate!
This night, the wind and snow covered up countless sins!
On this night, the tide washed out by the long river of history is destined to make the celebrities in history this night.
However, it is destined that the names of these people will not appear in history books.
"My brother... If I hadn't known you so much, I would have been almost fooled by you."
In the hall, when the shouts of "killing rebellion" from the surrounding storm legion gradually approached, Hilo still looked at his high brother with such a calm smile and stared at the emperor of the empire.
"…Oh?" The emperor narrowed his eyes.
"Your Highness..." Aker's eyes were red. He held the long sword in his hand tightly, and he felt that the shouts around him were like sharp swords cutting off his flesh and blood, taking away the courage and hope in his heart.
"No! Want! Pan!!!"
Shilo suddenly shouted and stopped shouting!!
This loud shout shook the entire hall, and the sound even made people's eardrums buzz!
Shilo raised the bow in his hand... His fingers held the corners of the bow steadily, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. A faint joking smile appeared on his face.
"Brother, if this is your trump card, then tonight...you will lose!"
The emperor...silent, silent!
Outside the hall, fierce battle has begun!
First, the soldiers of the Storm Army rushed from the east lined up and crashed into the Thunder Whip Rebels' queue.
After all, the soldiers of these Storm Legion were elite soldiers transferred back from the northern border, and their combat effectiveness was far from comparable to those imperial guards with a scent of airs.
It was just a mere team of people who almost shook the queue of Thunder Whip!
Of course, the bigger reason is that the Thunder Whip was suddenly shocked by the scene of "killing and killing from all sides".
The sound of fighting quickly came into the hall, the soldiers roared angryly, the dying roar, the sonorous swords and swords collided...
The cold sound seemed to have become Hilo's background.
When he swept through the hall with cold eyes, he swept over the "real Augustines" with a hint of disdain in his expression. When he swept over the nobles crowded in the surrounding corners, his eyes were despised.
Only when he swept over the imperial ministers defending the steps of the hall, as well as the Goth and other officers, did Hilo show a hint of solemnity.
Then, he sighed softly: "Brother, how many people are you... enough for me to kill?"
How many people are enough for me to kill!
This is extremely arrogant!!
"The city defense of the imperial capital has always been in the hands of the city guards. Panin is my man. Although I can't control the city guards, Panin's father is there...... If the Storm Legion wants to mobilize personnel to enter the imperial capital, it is impossible!"
Hilo seemed to be talking to himself, his tone was unexpectedly calm, almost cold-blooded!
It seemed as if there were sounds of killing outside the hall behind him. At this moment, he heard it as if the breeze in summer blew on his face.
"Brother, I have arranged a bureau, and you have arranged a bureau. The bureau I have arranged is for the uprising tonight! And the bureau you have arranged seems to be for the punishment of rebellion tonight! Or, you have long thought that someone would object and cause trouble tonight. But you have been leading it but not triggering it! You have 20,000 troops from the Royal Guards, and thousands of troops from the Imperial Guards and thousands of troops from the Public Security Bureau, but you have always been in a high position and refused to fall. You deliberately caused a knife in your hand.
In a tense situation, you deliberately transferred the Guards of the Royal City out of the city, you deliberately let the Thunder Whip into the city... Of course, you made the wrong move and I intercepted a piece! However, your general strategy is not wrong. Your purpose is to lure all the people who make trouble tonight, and then use your advantages to capture all those who oppose you tonight! Not only for the rule of!, but also for your son!!!
So... Your strategic purpose will not change! Then... in order to lure the opponents tonight, you will never mobilize troops into the city. You are worried that the butcher knife will be too scary and will make those hidden opponents lurk and make you unable to find your target! So... you will never have many people from the Storm Army!
You just took advantage of the transfer of Goth back to the imperial capital and took the opportunity to use secret orders to dispatch a small number of elite troops to come in. With Panin's father in charge of the royal city guards, I at least know what people have entered and out of the city defense these days. If you mobilize too many people, I will not be unaware of it! So, according to my calculations..."
Shilo quickly raised a few fingers.
"Five hundred? Or...800? There is no more! If there is more, the news will not be hidden! Transferring troops from the north to the imperial capital is your foreshadowing, and it is also your secret chess, or in other words, you did not intend to use this secret chess! This is just a move you prepared to prevent it. It is an extra preparation caused by your suspicious nature as an emperor! However, tonight, when you see the sudden rebellion of the Thunder Whip, your idle chess has become your reliance on the turnaround?"
When Shilo said this, he smiled lightly, his eyes as sharp as a knife!
“It’s a pity…not enough!!”
Every word is piercing the hearts of people!!
The emperor on the steps remained silent and was still staring at his younger brother with his squinting eyes.
However, the emperor's failure to speak at this moment has become the biggest "circumstantial evidence"!
Aker suddenly felt that all the souls in his body returned to him.
He took a deep breath and rushed out of the hall without looking back.
"Thunder God's Whip!!! Form a Formation!!! Form a Formation!!! Push them back!!!"
Aker roared angrily, and seemed to be angry that he was almost deceived. He urged the soldiers crazyly, and there was this backbone in the main hall to take charge, and his morale gradually stabilized.
Thunder Whip quickly stabilized its position. The charge of the Storm Army, one after another, could not break through their array!
The first wave, the second wave...
In the palace, when three waves of storm troops on both sides and the north rushed outside the hall, Aker's heart was finally completely put in his stomach!
After half his life in the army, he immediately judged the number of opponents even if he just glanced at him!
As Hilo said!
The number of soldiers from these storm legions was only between five hundred and eight hundred!
It's just a small infantry regiment! And it's not full yet!!
"Thief! You can't win!"
Standing on the steps, Count Berion, who was supported by the people around him, suddenly stared at Hilo's angry roar!
"Oh? Lord Earl, do you think I'm going to lose?"
Hilo smiled.
"You..." Earl Berion raised his head and suddenly said fiercely: "Even if there are only these hundreds of people, it will be enough to withstand you for at least a few hours!!! You are just struggling to death!!"
"Hahahaha!" Hilo laughed!
He pointed at Earl Berion and shouted loudly: "My Count, your words not only despise me, but also despise your son! Do you think that General Aker has been in charge of the Second Thunder Whip Division, which has been in charge for many years and has been running for many years, is there only this little force to follow him?"
Berryon doesn't speak.
Even though he hated his son's rebellion tonight, Berryon knew his son's ability! He had been in the Second Division for many years and had already managed the Second Division as an iron barrel! In addition, in order to support him, the family even installed a large number of children from the Luolin family in the Thunder Whip!
The loyalty of the Luolin family's children is deeply understood by the old earl!
The Rollin people... have always been an alien existence in the empire!
If there are only two families in the empire, the children of the family have the highest loyalty, and the degree of loyalty to the family is far higher than that of loyalty to the empire.
Then the first thing to do is the Luolin family and the Tulip family!!
Moreover, the Tulip family, which has lost its patriarch for several generations inexplicably, is probably slightly lower than that of the Luolin family, which has been run for generations!!
Once Aker, the future heir of the family, set up the flag of rebellion, the children of the Luolin family who were loyal to him would follow him to the end without hesitation!
The people of Luolin have always been loyal to the Luolin family!
"Just now, just as you scold me, the children of the Luolin family are cleaning up the minority in the army all over the city." Shilo smiled faintly: "Otherwise, why do you think General Aker had brought the Second Division into the imperial capital, but only brought more than a thousand people to the palace to force the palace? Is it because his ability is too poor and he can only control and mobilize more than a thousand people to carry out affairs?"
After all, Berryon is also a veteran of the imperial family. After a little thought, he understood the key!
"You...you deliberately divided the army into various parts of the imperial capital, and then...you can clean it in the army in batches!!" As he said that, Earl Berion finally couldn't stand and fell to the ground.
"The Earl's reaction was indeed not slow." Shilo smiled softly: "If the army is concentrated together, it will inevitably lead to a big mutiny when cleaned. But if it is scattered in several defense areas, then...if it is done, the movement will be much smaller, and... even if there is any problem, it will not affect the whole market... I am never used to putting all the eggs in one basket."
As he said that, he raised his head and looked at the emperor: "Brother, you have hundreds of Storm Legion in your hand now... However, I have thousands of Thunder God Whip in my hand now! And outside your palace, there are at least tens of thousands of Thunder God Whip in the whole city. After the cleaning is completed, I will go here immediately... My dear brother, what else is your trump card?"
Shilo lit up the long bow in his hand, pointed at the emperor on the distance, pursed his lips slightly, and whispered.
Chapter completed!
