Chapter 164 City-wide riot
Chapter 164 City-wide riot
Just as the common people in the city were filled with indignation, Hu Yongwei led the imperial guards and rushed in quickly.
"Everyone, the Fuling Army under King Xiaoyao is preparing to storm the prison and kill all Liao spies. Please step aside and do not hurt anyone!"
When Hu Yongwei's voice sounded, the people looked at each other, with smiles of joy and excitement on their faces.
"Even though King Xiaoyao is gone, it's rare that his soldiers still care about our Wu Dynasty!"
"I think this must have been arranged by King Xiaoyao before he died. King Xiaoyao was worried about the Wu Dynasty's country and gave instructions to his soldiers!"
"Humph, what's the point of calling him King Xiaoyao? That's the real Crown Prince of our Wu Dynasty!"
"That's right. In the entire Wu Dynasty, I only recognize this Crown Prince. I don't recognize any others!"
"Yes, that's right!"
"Eliminate the Liao spies and defend the Wu Dynasty!"
Hearing the people's shouts getting louder and louder, and them automatically making way for the Heavenly Prison, Hu Yongwei became more and more excited.
As expected of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he is very good at predicting things. Now that this matter is over, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will surely be able to return to his position as Crown Prince, and no one will be able to shake his position anymore.
If I follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as the commander of the Imperial Guard, I will definitely be promoted.
"Soldiers!"
Han Bin and Ma Sandao of the Fuling Army rushed over, leading the Fuling Army: "Kill the Liao spies and the Tianlao Prison. We must not let these guys continue to commit crimes in the Wu Dynasty!"
Soon, the Fuling Army and the Imperial Guard split into two groups.
The Imperial Guards were responsible for blocking the city gates and not allowing anyone to enter or leave, while the Fuling Army fought their way to the Heavenly Prison.
Zhou Chuxuan mixed in with the Fuling army, and anyone who dared to stop him on the way was shot dead.
When the news reached the inner court of the imperial palace, Zhou Wanjiang stood up from the dragon throne in astonishment. He looked at Canglang below and angrily said, "Assholes, how dare they do this?"
"The Fuling Army? They're just a bunch of rabble, yet they dare to attack the capital?"
Zhou Wanjiang drew his sword and threw it to Canglang: "Go, hand it over to the commander of the Imperial Guard, Wan Hao, and have him lead the Imperial Guards to fight and wipe out all these bandits for me!"
"Yes!"
"Also, mobilize three hundred Black Armored Guards to assist the Imperial Guards and kill all these people!" Zhou Wanjiang sneered, "I just couldn't find a reason to deal with them, and yet they come to my door!"
"According to the order!"
A gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of Canglang's eyes, and he went out holding the imperial sword.
Then, Zhou Wanjiang came to the back and looked at the fake Martial Emperor who was practicing his movements. He nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, that's it!"
The fake Emperor trembled in fear as he saluted Zhou Wanjiang: "Your Majesty, I, I have a small wish!"
"Well, it's okay to tell!"
The fake Emperor Wu knelt on the ground and said tremblingly, "I just want to return home after completing the task assigned by Your Majesty. If Your Majesty is willing to reward me with some silver, then please do so. If not, I will also accept it. I only ask Your Majesty to spare my life!"
Zhou Wanjiang said in a deep voice, "What are you talking about? You've done good work for me, and you've made contributions. How could I possibly treat you unfairly? At the very least, I'll ensure that you're promoted and have no worries about food and clothing!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
However, when Zhou Wanjiang turned around, there was a cold murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
What I said just now was just to trick this guy into doing things for me sincerely. As for afterwards, how could I let this guy live?
If a person who once pretended to be an emperor is allowed to live in this world, he will be a hidden danger to the emperor and must be eliminated.
Keep a secret?
Zhou Wanjiang never believed in any oaths. He only believed that only the dead could keep secrets perfectly.
After a while, Canglang returned to the imperial study, covered in blood: "Your Majesty!"
Seeing Canglang in such a state, Zhou Wanjiang immediately realized that something was wrong. Over the years, no matter what mission Canglang was carrying out, he had never been so embarrassed.
"problem occurs?"
Canglang nodded and said, "The commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard, Wan Hao, has led the Imperial Guard, the Fuling Army, and the Imperial Guards to attack the Sky Prison. No one can stop them!"
"My subordinates were unable to withstand the Fuling Army's lethal weapons, and the Black Armor Guards suffered heavy losses!"
"What did you say?"
Zhou Wanjiang slammed the table, his eyes filled with anger: "How many of my Black Armor Guards were killed or injured?"
"Thirty Black Armored Guards were killed on the spot, and hundreds were injured!"
Canglang's words made Zhou Wanjiang furious: "Canglang, do you know what the Black Armor Guards mean to the Wu Dynasty and to me? They are my last remaining strength and team. Without the Black Armor Guards, how can I sit firmly on the throne?"
"Every one of the Black Armor Guards is dear to my heart. Even if only one person died or was injured, I would be heartbroken for a long time!"
The key point is that the training of the Black Armor Guards is an extreme waste of resources. From the moment a generation of emperors ascends the throne, they must begin to train the Black Armor Guards for the next generation of emperors.
Canglang lowered his head: "Your Majesty, the Equality of All Beings in their hands can easily penetrate our defensive armor. The armor of the Black Armor Guards cannot withstand it, that's why..."
Zhou Wanjiang's pupils suddenly shrank, and he looked at Canglang in disbelief. "The Black Armor Guards' armor couldn't even withstand their weapons? What on earth is this so-called equality of all beings?"
Although the repeating crossbows and muskets were extremely powerful, the armor of the Black Armor Guards could still block them, at most it would only hit their hands. But this Equality of All Beings could actually penetrate the armor of the Black Armor Guards?
Zhou Wanjiang sat down on the dragon throne, a look of panic flashing across his face: "Canglang, are they attacking the palace?"
"No!" Canglang shook his head. "But the Imperial Guards and the Royal Guards have each sent out a portion of their troops to surround the palace. Now even a fly would have a hard time escaping!"
"Most of them went to the Heavenly Prison, saying they were going to kill all the Liao spies!"
Zhou Wanjiang lowered his head, lost in thought, when a young eunuch came running over breathlessly, "Your Majesty, there's something important!"
"Say it!"
"All the civil and military officials have now gathered at the gate of the Imperial Palace, kneeling on the ground and marching towards the Taiji Hall. We are begging the Emperor not to pursue those illusory legends, but to send troops to eliminate the Liao spies causing rebellion in various places!"
"Snapped!"
Zhou Wanjiang slammed the table and stood up: "Assholes, a bunch of assholes! Am I the ruler of the Wu Dynasty, or are they the ruler of the Wu Dynasty? How dare you tell me what to do?"
"Canglang, mobilize the Black Armor Guards and tell them to get out! Anyone who disobeys will be executed!"
Just as Canglang accepted the order and was about to leave, a deep voice came: "Father, it's not necessary to be like this!"
"Just listen to me!"
