Chapter 1380: Han Banner World (70) Killing the King
After the Xuanyi Guards had advanced halfway, Zhou Yu's troops began to turn around and followed the Xuanyi Guards in front of them to march towards the city gate. Ying Ying clasped his hands together, stood solemnly on one side, and watched the teams of soldiers passing in front of him.
A little further away, Ming Tai's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he squinted at the side of Fan Sui's face who was standing half a step in front of him. Fan Sui seemed very excited and excited. The passionate war song just now seemed to still affect him. After watching for a while, Ming Tai's mouth suddenly curled up a sneer.
At the moment when Ming Tai sneered, several Zhou soldiers who were passing in front of Ying Ying suddenly stood up, put their hands into their armor, and when they came out, they were already loaded with crossbows, and the sharp crossbows were aimed at Ying Ying.
"Today I will avenge the King of Yan!"
The sound of the swishing crossbows rang out. Ying Ying heard the roar and looked up in shock. A cold light flashed in front of his eyes. The crossbow arrows flew towards him. He was so shocked that he only had time to slightly turn his body. After all, he was a military general and had fought for many years in his early years. He still had this reaction. However, the assassin was too close to him. Although he tried to turn his body, two crossbow arrows still penetrated his chest during the several crossbow arrows.
Shouting, the crossbow sounded, and Ying Ying fell to the ground.
The sudden change shocked everyone present.
"There is an assassin!" Mingtai roared, drew out his knife with a choking sound, and jumped to Yingying's side. He dragged Yingying with one hand and retreated. The Black Ice Guards behind him all rushed forward and blocked the two of them.
"Zhou Yu rebelled and assassinated the king. Take them down, take them all down." Mingtai held Yingying's waist and continued to retreat step by step to the steps, shouting with a knife while walking.
"Zhou Yu rebelled, Zhou Yu rebelled!" All the Black Ice Terrace guards shouted in unison.
Zhou Yu, who was walking in front, turned back in shock and watched all this in a daze. The two assassins who were trying to assassinate were laughing at the sky at this moment: "General Zhou, we have lived up to your trust and finally succeeded. We killed the King of Qin and avenged the King of Yan!"
Zhou Yu was shocked and angry, pointing at the two people. He roared: "Take them down, take them down, and find out their mastermind."
The soldiers around him surrounded him with guns and knives. The two assassins laughed and almost simultaneously crossed their knives to their necks, "Take care, General!" With a sizzle, blood splattered three feet, and the two fell to the ground.
Seeing the two assassins splattering blood three feet, Zhou Yu was immediately furious. Once the two died, how could he explain it clearly with his mouth full of mouths.
"Zhou Yu plotted to assassinate the king, kill him!" A general of the Xuanyi Guard drew his sword and shouted angrily. Amid the shouts, the Xuanyi Guard rushed towards Zhou Yu's troops. Zhou Yu's subordinates who entered the city today were all selected elites from various departments.
Each of them was a veteran of hundreds of battles, and they were not the kind of people who would sit back and wait for death. Seeing the Xuanyi Guard coming, they immediately raised their weapons and fought back.
The square was in chaos.
Zhou Yu watched his troops fighting with the Xuanyi Guard. Looking up at the steps again, Mingtai had already retreated into the hall with Yingying. With a loud bang, the door closed, and he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood. He was on the verge of collapse.
"General, General, this is like yellow mud falling into the crotch of pants, it's shit, it's shit, it's too late. There's no way to tell clearly, first fight out and join the main force and then make a plan. If the king is not dead at that time, with the king's wisdom, he will naturally redress the general's grievances." Zhou Yu's deputy general grabbed Zhou Yu and shouted.
"What if, what if the king is dead?" Zhou Yu staggered.
"General, if the king dies..." the deputy general's face suddenly turned pale, "I'm afraid, I'm afraid we can only hold our own troops and retreat to the south."
Zhou Yu looked up to the sky and sighed, "The Qin Dynasty is over, it's over!" With a choking sound, he drew his sword and roared, "The clear ones will be clear, and the turbid ones will be turbid. Brothers, follow me to kill them."
Previously, Zhou Yu's troops only resisted spontaneously. Although they were brave, they were killed by the Xuanyi Guards and retreated step by step. But when Zhou Yu woke up and implemented the orders one by one, Zhou's troops finally stabilized their position and began to rush towards the city gate.
When the assassin suddenly attacked, the King of Qin was assassinated and fell to the ground, and the Xuanyi Guards and Zhou's soldiers were fighting together, Fan Sui was like being struck by lightning, sitting on the steps in a daze. Groups of soldiers fought in front of him, and blood splashed on his body from time to time, but he didn't raise his head.
"It's over, the Qin Dynasty is over!" He lowered his head and said unconsciously.
Zhou's troops gradually attacked the city gate, and the Xuanyi Guards also fought with them. Gradually, fewer and fewer people appeared on the square, and finally only blood, broken arms and limbs, and frightened courtiers were left. Fan Sui climbed up like a puppet, and walked towards the Black Ice Palace with difficulty.
At the entrance of the palace, the Black Ice Palace guards drew their sharp blades and stood guard at the entrance. When they saw Fan Sui coming, they suddenly placed two steel knives in front of Fan Sui, "First Minister, please go back. The king's life is in danger now, and I will not see anyone."
Fan Sui did not refute, but looked up at the closed door, his legs softened, and he sat in front of the door.
In the hall, Mingtai half-supported and half-dragged Yingying towards the bed and put Yingying on the bed. Mingtai stood in front of the bed and looked at the man in front of him quietly, but his expression was extremely complicated. After a while, he finally reached out and uncovered Yingying's clothes. Two short crossbow arrows were inserted into Yingying's chest. The skin was faintly black, and the arrows were poisoned.
Mingtai slowly sat down in front of the bed.
Yingying's body trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, "Mingtai!" He called in a low voice.
Mingtai raised his head in excitement, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Ying Ying breathed heavily and looked down at the two crossbow arrows on his chest. As a military general, he naturally knew how serious his injuries were.
"What's going on outside?" Ying Ying asked with difficulty, blood foam gushing out of her mouth every time she uttered a word.
"Zhou Yu plans to assassinate the king, and now the Xuanyi guards are fighting with him. Don't worry, the king. He can only enter the city with only 3,000 people, but there are tens of thousands of Xuanyi guards in the city. He will be killed soon and captured by you. Come in front of me," Mingtai said.
"Quick, hurry up and pass the order to the lonely king. This matter has nothing to do with General Zhou. There is someone. Someone is plotting against him. Immediately order the two parties to stop fighting." Ying Ying's face was pale, but at this time it was flushed. From his mouth More blood gushes out. "Take my sword and order both sides to stop. This is Lu Chao's conspiracy."
Mingtai lowered his head and said nothing, but did not answer Ying Ying's words. He was like a nail, nailed to the spot and did not move.
"Mingtai, go quickly, go quickly, it will be too late." Ying Ying said urgently.
Mingtai slowly stood up and looked at Ying Ying with complex eyes, "Your Majesty, Zhou Yu was indeed framed, but this person is not Lu Chao but someone else."
Ying Ying trembled slightly, "You, you know who it is? Since you know who it is, why didn't you stop it in advance? You, you are the commander of the Black Ice Platform, why, why didn't you notice it at all?"
"Your Majesty, because this person is me!" Mingtai's voice seemed to be crying and laughing, and his voice seemed to be floating out of the Nine Netherworld Spring.
Yingying stared at Mingtai standing in front of her with wide eyes, as if she had just met him today. After a long while, he slowly shook his head: "No, it's impossible. You have been following me since you were twelve years old. You have been following me and helping me for more than ten years. We are like brothers. How could you let someone assassinate me?"
Mingtai sat cross-legged in front of the bed and looked at Ying Ying, "Yes, I have been following you since I was twelve years old, but since I was ten years old, I swore an oath that I must do my best in this life. Overturned Your Ying Dynasty, do you know why?"
Yingying looked at Metropolis Mingtai blankly.
"Thirty years ago, the king of Qin died in battle. Suddenly, there was no owner of the throne, so various princes fought for the throne. In the end, your father, our late king, was defeated by the generals Ying Teng, Li Xin and others. With the support of the people, they won the final victory. That year, the city of Xianyang was filled with blood!" Mingtai looked up at the high dome of the Black Ice Platform.
"What does this have to do with you?"
"Hey, it doesn't matter. How could it not matter?" Mingtai laughed, "Where is Wu Youmengtian and Wen who supported the eldest prince back then? Your lord, do you still remember?"
"Chen Kuo! The Chen family, you, what do you have to do with them?" Ying Ying looked at Mingtai with wide eyes.
"Meng Tian had 200,000 troops in southern Xinjiang. In order to stabilize southern Xinjiang, the late king also did what he did to the Meng family. However, the Chen family was eventually uprooted. Hehe, thousands of lives were lost overnight. They were killed so cleanly that the blood that flowed in the Chen Mansion that night could cover a person's calf. "
"My surname is Chen, and I am the only survivor of the Chen family." Mingtai leaned over and looked at Ying Ying: "The Chen family is finished, but the killing has not stopped. Kill all nine clans and kill them all! The former king used Chen The blood of the family shocked the entire Da Qin, and the first family in the Qin Dynasty disappeared like this. "
"My destiny is great. The Ming family took me in. Maybe the late king never thought that the person who saved me in the end was the Ming family who has always been at odds with the Chen family. It is precisely because of this that I can survive."
"I'm afraid the late king would never have thought that the Chen family had established the Qin State for hundreds of years and it had its own reasons. The Ming family was not the real enemy of the Chen family, but an opponent deliberately set up by the Chen family. In fact, , the two families are a community that can be entrusted with life. The Chen family is dead, but the Ming family is still alive, and I am still alive. From that time on, we began to plan revenge. "
"Although the late king was cruel, he was still a wise master. We have no chance to take advantage of it. We can only discuss it in the long term. This is how I came to your side." Mingtai laughed, "Twenty-five years, twenty-five years, today I finally got it. Get what you want.”
Ying Ying raised her hand tremblingly and pointed at Mingtai. Her body was trembling and her eyes were blood red. Mingtai looked at her without fear: "If the Ying family destroys my nine clans, I will overthrow your world and the world will be reincarnated." , retributive displeasure.”
With a bang, Ying Ying's hand dropped weakly and hit the bed hard. (To be continued.)
