8 8 The First Battle

"Day without cloud. Why are there so many thundering sounds?" Said one noble in the Chancellery Hall.

"The sound of these thunder hits more often; I think it's not natural."

Han Zhen commented.

Earlier, the people of Chancellor Hall and Shenzhou City people heard a rifle's loud sound. They do not know what the source of these sounds is. The villagers nearby the royal palace knelt to the ground, praying that the gods should stop their wrath.

Huang Lai Tao sat listening to the loud and shuddering sound with a pale face.

"Chief Minister, is this really okay? I think this might not be good. "

"Huang Lai Tao, shut your dog's mouth," Duan Kang warned.

"Everyone, we have to be sure that we will succeed. Because fate is on our side all the time," Wei Guan Yu consoled everyone.

Some of the nobles who heard this were relieved. However, if someone looks at the Archdiocese's face with a more relaxed face, they will find sweat on his forehead.

Wei Guan Yu suddenly sensed that the result didn't go as planned. Who would not be afraid, frightened, the sound of thunder that resounded as though continuously loud in their ear? The nobles were people as well, and they were all superstitious. Obviously, what happened wasn't a good sign.

Suddenly, a soldier rushed in and hurriedly reported it to the High Commissioner. Wei Guan Yu, who had been patient for a long time, could not hold back, impatiently stood up and asked,

"Hurry up and report what happened."

The Soldier didn't delay and hurried to speak out.

"My lord Venerable, the palace has significant struggling. The Royal Guards Army has been all defeated. "

All the nobles in the house were shocked by what had happened. Although they had some suspicions, they did not expect that the Royal Guards were defeated.

The Royal Guards Division is the military unit with the most allocated budget. Those to be loaded into the unit will be selected from the noble family. Through rigorous training, They learned art and culture. Armor and weapons were all made of refined iron, forged by the best craftsmen in the land. When everyone heard the news of the defeat, they couldn't help but be shocked.

"How many of the Royal Guards have survived?"

Wei Guan Yu immediately asked. If handled properly, the broken soldiers can be reunited to fight again.

"Not one of them are survived," the soldierSoldier reported.

"Huh, what did you say?" Wei Guan Yu felt that he had heard wrong, so he turned around and asked again.

"The Royal Guards, no one has survived, not even lord Wan Huang Ing," the soldierSoldier said.

Wei Guan Yu, who listened to him, collapsed into a chair without speaking.

"This is impossible. Impossible." Duan Kang mumbled.

"Only 500 troops will defeat 3000 people."

Huang Lai Tao cried out.

These things showed that the Emperor had hidden his body entirely, not revealing its strength before. Right now, the nobles thought that all 500 of the Emperor's soldiers would definitely come from one of the Martial Sects.

"Why do Martial Artists intervene in the war within? They hold a principle, do not interfere with the world," said one noble.

"Or is it the Seven Major Sects? If it were the Seven Sects, they would rule the Great Continent, and Yan Huang would definitely want to conquer the East. "

Another noble added.

"Huh, do you think that if the Seven Sects take action, it must be difficult and laborious? Just send the flying sword to wipe out the whole Great Zhou. But the East is too poor, so they don't care to occupy it.

Han Zhen, who knew about the Great Continent, Yan Huang explained.

Everyone was extremely depressed, even the Venerable. Until Tuan Kang could not stand for it

"The High Venerator, you must not be exhausted. Don't forget; we still have the town guards. "

Wei Guan Yu listened. His eyes sparkled.

"True, it is me who completely forgot to think More than twenty thousand city guards are still in our command. So there is still hope." Wei Guan Yu hurriedly scoured his order to order the guards to move.

The nobles who listened to their expressions were filled with joy, some even clenching their fists up in the sky with pleasure.

"Very well. Twenty thousand soldiers are sure to defeat."

"Even if the opposite was Martial Artists, there were only five hundred people. The garrison will definitely save the crisis,"

Huang Lai Tao said with a smile.

In just a moment, the morale of the nobles has risen to unprecedented heights. Some of them even grabbed the saber by their side, and some even wish to go out to join the war with the soldiers outside.

While everyone was in a rush, another soldier came to report.

"The High Commissioner, I have bad news."

Such words had quenched the morale of the nobles as many parts were extinguished. Today, they have been overjoyed and disappointed many times until they start to gain immunity. Regardless of the bad news, be ready to listen.

"SoldierSoldier, what news do you have? Hurry to inform me,"

Wei Guan Yu said in a severe tone.

With his old age, he could not bear too much stress. Just not the serious damage to deal with. Anything can be fixed.

"Commander of the city guard The deputy commander, commander, general, all of them had died. Now the city guards surrender. Accepting disarmament from the palace."

This bad news was like lightning striking in his ear. Louder than a rifle For this is the quenching of all their hopes The spirited morale earlier was like a raging fire being poured out quickly.

"Ugh!"

Wei Guan Yu, who listened to the bad news that he could not endure. Anger raged in his bosom until it spilled out blood.

"The High Commissioner," the nobles said in unison.

Right now, everyone was hoping to start a compromise with the palace.

They only hope that the Emperor will be merciful towards himself, not too cruel.

Wei Guan Yu was utterly unconscious. Duan Kang, who had a subordinate status, immediately questioned the situation of the soldiers.

"Tell me what happened to the city guards."

"My lord Royal Secretary The Commander and all high ranks men in the army all died without cause. There was a strange wound in the middle of the head. The city guards were terrified of what happened, thinking that it was the result of insulting the royal family, and quickly surrendered.

All these stories are the work of the marksman unit. They set up a sniping force of hundreds of generals.

Creating disarray with the army Together with the scenery of lightning strikes throughout the city Causing the morale of the feared soldiers to surrender easily

In principle, the soldiers were loyal to the royal family. Following the general's command, they never know the truth of who they are fighting or who they are serving.

Under this fierce civil war, only the elite was clearly visible.

Zhao Lingxin did not want too much bloodshed. Now the capital's population is only a hundred thousand people. Those soldiers were innocent. If more than twenty thousand people were to be killed, it would be in vain to destroy them.

The faces of the nobles in the room were all pale, and they couldn't even turn paler. They began to see their end. The Emperor had such a trump card if they had known before. Probably didn't blatantly oppose. These were the emperors digging holes in traps waiting for them to jump down.

Hundreds of nobles in the Venerable Hall became anxious. Some began to seek an escape, hoping to send a representative to negotiate with the palace. Because however, the Emperor was unable to kill them. He had to rely on the nobles in the administration of the country.

If he kills them all, How will the Emperor run the country? The nobles were like people who drowned in the water, which saw straw ropes. Each side tried their best to find a way to grasp the string tightly.

"Who are we going to send to negotiate?" Asked one noble.

"We cannot send the Venerable. This morning, Lord Wei Guan Yu and His Majesty were severely broken up, unable to reconcile. Moreover, after this work, His Majesty will definitely not leave the Venerable to live. "

"If so, we have to put all the blame on the Chancellor. Defend that we are innocent. It was because Zhao Wei Guan Yu forced us to do this," Duan Kang said.

"Damn, Wei Guan Yu is ambitious. Behave lowly and shameful Still has a face to present himself as a noble contribution. Tch, this person, I don't accept it. "

The noble who supported Wei Guan Yu this morning quickly turned over the shore like a lizard changing skin color.

"Yes, Wei Guan Yu should have died. Even daring to ignore royal authority. Set himself as the head of power, not let go I swear not to join the coexist with Wei Guan Yu again." Huang Lai Tao vowed in front of the heavens without fear.

The nobles began to discuss the details of the surrender.

The high priest, who had fainted now, did not know the group of nobles who flatter him this morning, Selling himself to the Emperor within his own house. If Wei Guan Yu heard these words, he would die again.

At that moment, a voice sounded. Hundreds of Zhao Lingxin soldiers invaded the Great Mansion. Siege Detain everyone in the hall.

"Surrender!, we surrender!." Duan Kang led the nobles to go out to surrender.

Even though they were defeated, the nobles still act so nobly and unchanging.

"Here you brought me to meet the Emperor. Report him that there is a great misunderstanding. We are detaining the Wei Guan Yu perpetrator to hand him over."

Duan Kang said without shame in the slightest. His face looks like a poker face.

But the soldiers did not follow that deal. Raised the rifle to shoot down the nobles who surrendered.

"Bang! Bang!"

There was a massacre in the Chancellor's Hall. All the nobles in the capital are all died.
