Chapter 264: Integrity
But it was a bit late for them to retreat. At this time, the ten artillery had adjusted the shooting angle and began to load ammunition.
"Preparation!" The general flag raised the small black flag and roared angrily: "Let it go!" The small black flag fell. There were a few "rumbling" sounds, and the sound of cannons sounded. The war horses neighed, and the 30,000 elite cavalrymen were rushing up and overturned, and suddenly became a mess.
"Why is this happening?" Zhang Juzheng said by himself. How could he think that the artillery would be greeted?
The war horses of the 30,000 elite cavalry were intimidated and were immediately out of control. These 30,000 elite cavalry were all recruits who had never been on the battlefield. They had never seen artillery before. Now they felt the powerful power of artillery and were already frightened. Everyone had lost their fighting spirit and no fighting spirit.
At this moment, Chai Yi issued an order to attack. The Soul-Devouring Army suddenly launched a charge! "Click! Click!" The Soul-Devouring Army's horse hooves sounded sharply and powerfully, hitting the ground, hitting the hearts of the 30,000 elite cavalry in the early chaos. The spear was raised horizontally.
The Soul-Devouring Army's spear pierced the enemy opposite, but the war horse did not stop and continued to attack. The horse head hummed and hit the war horses of the cavalry opposite. With a sad neigh, the soldiers were thrown off their war horses and fell to the ground. This is the combat power of the Soul-Devouring Army, and the spears and war horses were their weapons. Facing the light cavalry, the Soul-Devouring Army was definitely their nemesis. Just two impacts, the 30,000 elite cavalry defeated without fighting, and all surrendered to Chai Yi.
At this time, Chai Yan in the palace was waiting anxiously.
Suddenly, a soldier covered in blood ran to him and said loudly, "Your Majesty - the Suzaku Gate was broken - the enemy rushed into Kyoto City-"
"What?" Chai Yan was stunned and asked hurriedly, "Surricane Que Gate? Whose army is it, how did it break through?"
"The army of King Qi is Gao Changgong who guards the city. Zhao Kuo personally opened the city gate-" The soldier fainted after panting.
"It's over!" Chai Yan's head turned blank. He couldn't help but recall why he used Gao Changgong, the former subordinate of King Qi, to use Zhao Kuo as a waste? "I knew these two guys would betray me! If I had known it, they shouldn't be important!"
Have you known it before? What did you do? It's too late to regret it unless time can never come.
Chai Yan never expected such an incredible scene to happen. Gao Changgong was Chai Yi's pawn after all. It was not surprising that Zhao Kuo and Chai Yi fought so fiercely, so why did they surrender? How could Chai Yi accept him? Chai Yan couldn't figure it out even if he wanted to break his head.
When Gao Changgong returned to Kyoto with injuries, he bribed Gao Changgong with gold and silver, asking him to prove that Chai Yi was rebelling, and he did the same. At that time, the two of them should have had a stumble, but he still sent someone to monitor the guy for three years. As a result, Chai Yi and this guy never interacted with each other for three years. Chai Yan then gave up his concerns and began to use him more. He also deliberately guarded the Suzaku Sect. However, he did not expect that their breakdown was just a game, a game set for himself. Three years, just for such a simple game, is it worth it? The answer is worth it!
After ten years of sharpening the sword, if you use one move, who in the world will be able to compete with you? Isn’t this Chai Yi’s best-known show?
Zhang Juzheng was defeated and left, but Chai Ke was still there. He led 50,000 soldiers to take over and guard the Shunde Gate leading to the palace.
Chai Yi's army walked towards Shunde Gate in a mighty manner, with a spectacular momentum.
But Chai Ke on the city tower no longer had the intention to fight, and many defenders in the city did not have the intention to fight to the death.
"Fourth brother! Don't be fine! Are you going to surrender?" Chai Yi asked with a smile, and said, "Father, don't want us to kill each other. Brother, I just want to kill Zhang Juzheng, Liang Zi'an, Bai Chi, and Yangdong! The throne is still owned by the eldest brother!"
Chai Yi can deceive people, but Chai Ke can't deceive them at all. The so-called traitors and traitors are clearly loyal to Chai Yan. Chai Yi said that the throne is still the elder brother, and as long as Chai Yan does not take the initiative to give way, Chai Yi can send someone to kill Chai Yan, and say that these traitors and traitors jumped over the wall and killed the emperor. In short, he had hundreds of reasons for Chai Yan to die. The real purpose was to seize the throne! This is the truth!
"Oh!" Chai Ke sighed, and then ordered people to open the city gate and let Chai Yi in.
In November of the fourth year of Zhaoshun, Kyoto fell!
At this time, Chai Yan was sitting in the palace. He was not unpredictable about the arrival of this day, but when it finally came, it still seemed so cruel that the emperor could not do it, nor the people could do it. After embarking on this road, he really couldn't turn back.
At this time, the counselors around him were no longer visible. The nerds who usually talked a lot finally understood that there was a gap between theory and reality. At this last moment, even Zhang Juzheng and Liang Zian were no longer visible.
"Hahahaha!" Chai Yan completely understood what it means to betrayal of relatives. He laughed loudly, and he shouted angrily to the empty hall: "It was you people who gave me the idea, but when things were about to come, they each ran for their own lives!"
But at this time his angry shout would no longer be responded by the ministers, and only the echoes of the Deep Hall were answered. Apart from that, there was nothing.
By this time, no matter who scolds anyone, it is meaningless. He looked back at this palace, where he spent his childhood, a place that everyone yearned for and respected. How glorious and glorious she was born in an imperial family?
He is very familiar with every tree and every tree here, but as a prince, he has no good feelings for this place. Since he ascended the throne, he has always been under too much pressure.
In his opinion, everyone here is a monster. They use all kinds of conspiracy to cheat, slander, and harm others, just for one goal - power.
Is the scenery of the peak really that good? Chai Yan smiled bitterly. He deeply understood that the heights were so cold, but the dramatic thing was that everyone seemed to know the meaning of this sentence, but everyone ignored it. They continued to climb towards the peak.
Chai Yan's complaints and anger make sense, but he underestimated the integrity of his advisers. Bai Chi, Guo Zi'an, Chai Ke and many others did not actually escape, but they were hoping to save the court's danger with their own strength.
He Yangdong is recruiting soldiers in Guangdong, Guo Zi'an is recruiting soldiers in Suzhou, Bai Chi, and He Yangdong is recruiting soldiers in Hangzhou. Although the actions of these loyal ministers cannot truly save the country, they have done their best and fulfilled their promises. They are a group of brave and honest people.
What they did was actually useless. Chai Yan was already in a desperate situation. Which fool was willing to join the army to resist Chai Yi? In their opinion, Chai Yi was the master. They tried very hard to persuade the people, but they did not want to be tied up by a few more courageous people to prepare to send them to Kyoto.
