Chapter 470: He is the traitor, the emperor is in danger!
"The Tenth Emperor has been captured. What should we do?"
"They're coming to kill us!"
"Not good, the cavalry inside them are also charging back at us."
"Let's just surrender. We have already lost."
When the rebels, who had lost all their fighting spirit, saw Chu Ning coming with the tenth prince, the last bit of fighting spirit in their hearts was shattered.
The timid ones immediately put down their weapons and knelt on both sides of the palace gate.
But there were also some cunning people who immediately scattered to both sides, trying to escape.
Chu Ning snorted coldly: "Anyone who escapes will be killed without mercy!"
At the command, the archers who had been prepared long ago released their arrows.
In an instant, a rain of arrows whistled and fell densely on the fleeing rebels.
Screams were heard everywhere, and fleeing rebels were shot and killed one after another.
Although these archers were all servants of the royal palace and the Shen family, they were eager to make achievements and wanted to eliminate the rebels immediately.
The bigger, the more excited they are!
This is a walking merit. As long as you kill one person, you can not only get the reward from the King of Chu, but also the reward from the emperor.
It was a good thing that killed two birds with one stone, and everyone was trying their best to catch up.
After Ran Ming rushed into the palace with his cavalry, he sent people to stabilize the situation at the palace gate, and at the same time he personally led his men to attack the palace wall.
At this moment, Ran Ming was holding a spear, fighting against ten people alone, killing the rebels so badly that they were in great mourning.
Although the cavalry behind him had no war horses, they had experienced the baptism of the battlefield and their fighting capacity was no worse than that of the rebels.
With Ran Ming leading the way, they were soon killed on the palace wall in just a moment.
The rebels, who had no numerical advantage to begin with, were wiped out in a short time!
Ran Ming looked unsatisfied and shouted to Chu Ning under the palace wall: "Your Highness, the rebels on the palace wall have been completely eliminated!"
Chu Ning nodded slightly: "Everyone enter the palace immediately, and after the palace gates are closed, no one is allowed in!
This king will lead a group of soldiers to the west gate, Lord Deng will lead a group of soldiers to the north gate, and Ran Ming, you will lead a group of soldiers to the east gate!"
"Yes!" Everyone responded and immediately went their separate ways.
Chu Ning brought his guards and some white horse cavalry, Deng Hongwen brought some white horse cavalry and servants of the palace, and Ran Ming led some white horse cavalry and servants of the Shen family.
After the division, the three teams headed towards their respective targets.
Why must we take down the palace gate first?
Of course, they are not worried about the emperor in the palace. Only by taking down the palace gate can the rebels' retreat be completely cut off.
Otherwise, if we rush into the palace rashly, once the rebels in the other three palace gates get the news, they will surely come to support us, and we will be attacked from both sides.
Now we can take advantage of the fact that the other three palace gates have not yet discovered the situation here and catch the enemy off guard.
As for the fact that there are white horse cavalry in each team, it is of course because this army has strong combat effectiveness, otherwise the royal palace and the Shen family servants alone would not be able to take down the other three palace gates.
At the same time, a conspiracy was taking place in the Golden Palace.
The imperial guards outside the palace had already blocked the rebels' offensive, but the shadow guards guarding inside the palace rebelled at this time!
A shadow guard who was originally guarding the emperor suddenly had a cold look in his eyes, and taking advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, he rushed towards the emperor with a sharp blade in his hand!
"Be careful, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Ming, the eunuch chief who was closest to the emperor, was quick-witted and quick-handed. He roared, leaped suddenly, and stood in front of the emperor.
"Pfft~"
The sharp blade pierced Zhao Ming's right shoulder, and blood spurted out!
"Damn it! Someone from the Shadow Guard is rebelling!"
Zhao Ming screamed and swept the dust in his hand towards the shadow guard.
"Bang!" The rebellious shadow guard was knocked out, fell to the ground and died.
This eunuch chief who served the emperor was actually also a master.
However, after using this move, Zhao Ming's face turned pale and he was unable to stand.
The emperor behind him reached out to hold him and shouted, "Protect the emperor!"
Who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen shadow guards in the palace rushed towards the emperor!
Seeing this, the Shadow Guard leader Xiao Tianming was furious: "How dare you!"
He took a deep breath, paused on one foot, and his body turned into a shadow to block the emperor, with the sword in his hand unsheathed!
In the midst of sword light, he actually fought against ten people alone and blocked the attacks of more than a dozen rebellious shadow guards.
At the same time, other shadow guards arrived and protected the emperor and Zhao Ming behind them.
The leader of the Shadow Guards, Xiao Tianming, was furious: "I didn't expect that there are traitors among the Shadow Guards. You must all die here today!"
A shadow guard sneered: "Really? Then let's see who dies here tonight. Let's go together and kill Xiao Tianming first!"
Xiao Tianming was furious and rushed forward with the other shadow guards, and the two sides started fighting.
The emperor who was being protected behind him looked at Zhao Ming standing in front of him with a gloomy face and asked in a deep voice:
"Hold on, once the rebellion is over, the imperial physician will be able to cure you!"
Zhao Ming was about to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood gushed out.
The emperor looked a little unhappy: "Okay, don't talk for now, just take good care of him."
After he finished speaking, the emperor looked up at the rebellious shadow guards in the palace, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.
Who could have thought that the Shadow Guard would actually rebel!
Now there is a fierce battle going on outside, and the shadow guards are working together with the enemy from inside and outside. Once the imperial guards outside can't stop them, they will definitely be killed by the rebels outside.
The situation is very unfavorable!
The emperor took a deep breath and said coldly to the shadow guards beside him: "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you go and help?"
The shadow guards looked at each other, feeling somewhat concerned.
If they go to help, who will protect the emperor?
But the emperor frowned and said, "I am the Son of Heaven. How can I be easily assassinated? Now I order you to help immediately!"
The shadow guards did not dare to disobey the order and immediately rushed forward to help.
With their help, Xiao Tianming and others quickly suppressed the rebellious shadow guards.
The emperor stood with his hands behind his back, looking calm and composed as if facing a catastrophe, and seemed not surprised by what he saw.
At this moment, Xiao Tianming roared, pierced a rebellious shadow guard with a sword, and waved his right hand, throwing the man away.
But that man was very safe, he flew backwards towards the emperor, and as he landed, he swung the sharp blade in his hand towards the emperor!
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Xiao Tianming's face changed drastically and he rushed over immediately.
"Qiang!"
Before the sword was about to pierce the emperor, Xiao Tianming knocked it down.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?"
The emperor still had his hands behind his back, but his expression was much more relaxed at this moment: "It's okay."
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Tianming's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he stabbed the emperor with the sharp blade in his hand!
The leader of the Shadow Guards is actually also a rebel!
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly and fell suddenly to the left, trying to avoid the fatal blow.
But Xiao Tianming was too fast. Although the emperor avoided the vital points, the sword still pierced his right arm.
"Ugh..." The emperor groaned, forced Xiao Tianming back with a palm, and retreated explosively to keep some distance.
But Xiao Tianming's eyes flashed with anger, and he slashed with his sword fiercely: "Die!"
For the first time, the emperor showed fear.
He knew that he couldn't dodge or avoid this sword!
With this sword, he will surely die!
