Chapter 98 Boss, it’s up to you!
The capital city was shaken, and thousands of officers and soldiers poured into the city from all directions.
There were constant shouts and cries of killing, and the sound of swords and weapons.
When the people heard the noise, they closed their doors and windows and dared not to look inside.
The leader of the guards fought bloody battles, and the three-foot-long sword in his hand was already stained with blood.
The officers, soldiers and generals who came close to him were no match for him.
The official sword that Zhao Wanjun had been using for many years had many cuts on it.
She simply dropped her knife, stepped on her horse's stirrups, and snatched the spear from a soldier.
Zhao Wanjun stood on his horse with his spear in hand, and as he waved the spear, he was like a martial god, killing people so badly that blood splattered on the street and flesh flew everywhere.
The soldiers and officers did not dare to charge and retreated one after another.
A team of shield-armored soldiers suddenly rushed out from the front and side, trying to hit the horses and knock down several people.
The only remaining brother beside the leader of the guards pulled the reins of his horse and stepped directly towards the pile of shield-armored soldiers!
"Boss, it looks like it's my turn!"
This guard also looked like a young man. At this moment, he forced a smile and rushed into the crowd of soldiers with a sword in hand.
There was a hint of fear in his eyes, but he squeezed the horse's belly tightly and did not retreat.
The alley has limited space, only three or four meters wide.
The war horses rushed in and stepped into the pile of shield-and-armored soldiers, disrupting the formation.
These shield soldiers stabbed the war horses with their spears, and also pierced the figure on the war horses.
The warhorse let out a wail, blood spilt all over the ground, and died instantly.
But even though the figure cried out in pain, he held tightly onto the spear that pierced him and refused to let go.
Blood was dripping from the corners of his mouth and his body was covered with bloody wounds.
The horses of several people passed smoothly.
The sergeant of the shield soldiers was very upset. If this man hadn't tried his best to stop him, this great achievement would have been theirs!
The sergeant gritted his teeth and, as if to vent his anger, ordered the shield soldiers: Chop this man into pieces!
The shield soldiers were reluctant to mistreat this man, but they could not resist the orders from their superiors and could only use their spears to continuously slash at the stiff figure in front of them.
Until he was chopped into pieces.
"Old Eleven......!"
In front, the war horses were galloping wildly, and the leader of the guards looked up and sighed.
He no longer knew how much pain he was feeling in his heart.
But he knew that the chance of survival that his brother had risked his life for must not be missed!
The gate to the capital is right in front of us!
In the palace, the prime minister who was sleeping with his girlfriends on both sides and covered in quilt was awakened.
When he heard that Emperor Qian was not dead and had appeared in the capital and had been rescued, he could not help but get furious.
"Waste, a bunch of waste!"
"We actually let these thieves kill most of the capital?!"
"If he gets out alive, I will chop off the heads of all the defenders of the capital!!!"
The prime minister was furious and even lost his mind.
The rebellion he had been planning for many years was disrupted by the Xu Kingdom, and the subordinates he sent to hunt down Emperor Qian were also cautious about the officials in the capital.
Now, Emperor Qian was rescued, and they actually fought their way all the way to the gate of the capital!
For a moment, this sinister prime minister even felt that the Qian Kingdom was truly doomed.
All aspects are ruined.
The prime minister pushed away the servant who was tying his clothes and hurried out.
"Come here! I will personally lead the troops to catch the thieves!"
At the main gate of the capital.
Hundreds of soldiers were on full alert.
The city guard sergeant said in a low voice:
"No one is allowed to open the city gate without my order!"
Many soldiers guarding the city responded.
In the crowd, there was a tall soldier with a fierce face, his eyes flickered.
But he still responded loudly to his superior's orders.
The sound of horse hooves gradually came.
The soldiers were alert, their weapons were already drawn.
Two war horses appeared at the corner. The people on the horses looked at the tight defense of the city gate, gritted their teeth, and rushed forward regardless.
The city guard captain shouted, "Stop them!"
"There is an order from above, whoever kills the thief will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!"
Nearly half of the soldiers rushed up immediately.
One hundred taels of gold are enough for these poor soldiers to spend their entire lives on feasting and drinking!
Dozens of soldiers rushed towards the war horses.
When the two sides collided, the sound of fighting became very fierce.
The city guard sergeant stared at it with wide eyes, feeling that something was amiss:
"Why just these two?"
"Didn't they say that the thieves were trying to save people?"
Just as he was doubting, the sound of horse hooves came from the alley not far away on the side!
The night had mostly faded away and the sky was hazy.
In the dim shadows, the figure rushing out looked like a ghost.
"kill!"
The leader of the guards took the lead, roared loudly, his voice as long as a tiger's, and rushed out fiercely!
Behind him, Emperor Qian and Marquis Zhao and his wife followed closely on horseback.
Zhao Wanjun was still at the rear, his spear stained with blood!
The soldiers were unable to react in time and were instantly rushed into the crowd by several war horses!
The city guard sergeant stood at the back of the crowd. Behind him was the city gate. He could not help but get anxious:
"Stop it!"
"Stop them all!"
The soldiers gathered together and slashed at the figure on the horse with their blades.
The leader of the guards was like a savage dragon. The three-foot-long sword in his hand slashed out faint silver-white sword shadows. His sword skills were so ferocious that they forced the soldiers to retreat.
Zhao Wanjun was behind, thrusting, stabbing, chopping and smashing with his spear, displaying his martial arts to the fullest extent.
The two men stood in front and behind, protecting Emperor Qian and Marquis Zhao and his wife.
Zhao Tianya also raised a knife and chopped with all his might to defend against the missed attacks.
Zhao's mother, Huang Shuya, held her husband tightly in one hand and did not scream because of the fighting. She even occasionally used a whip to whip away the approaching soldiers.
"Boss, I leave it to you!"
From the rear, where the soldiers had rushed before, a tragic shout was heard.
Then, there was no movement.
The two of them took the initiative to lure the enemy, attracting dozens of soldiers to leave, greatly reducing the pressure on the guard leader and others.
The leader of the guards let out a long howl, and the sound spread all around, hoarse and desolate.
His lips were trembling, not because of the injuries on his body, but because of the grief in his heart.
"Old Five, Old Seven..."
A tear silently flowed from the corner of the guard leader's eye, and slowly dripped down along with the blood on his face.
He roared, and his sword became more powerful, as if he had no idea of exhaustion.
Zhao Wanjun's eyes were also red, and he was saddened by the heroic sacrifice of these good men.
She was also in pain.
Because the soldiers she keeps killing now are all from the Qian Kingdom, just like her!
There were even some people among them whom she had known for a long time when she was working in the capital's government office!
Unfortunately, they are in different camps and serve different masters!
Emperor Qian and Wang Xiang only have one chance to choose.
Now, all that’s left is fighting!
Blood splattered under the blade, and pieces of flesh and blood flew everywhere. Several people kept charging forward, like a cold meat grinder.
Nearly a hundred soldiers who were guarding the city gate were killed so badly that some of them dared not move forward.
They slowly retreated, but blocked the way ahead of several people, and continued to consume several people with spears and halberds.
In the rear, dozens of soldiers slowly returned towards the gate of the capital.
It looked like a situation of siege and killing.
Squeak——!
The city gate suddenly opened a crack.
With a gleam of light in their eyes, they took a deep breath and rushed towards the city gate to fight.
Many soldiers were shocked and looked over there as they retreated.
A bald strong man removed the bolt and tried his best to open the city gate completely.
He took off his helmet, stood at the city gate, and knelt down hard in the direction of Zhao Wanjun!
The bald man had a face full of flesh, but his expression was one of guilt.
"Zhao Si Ya!"
"I, Bald Liu, betrayed you and nearly caused your death in the capital because my mother was coerced by someone!"
"Now, I will repay your kindness!"
