Chapter 1045 Bloody Shangyuan Festival (2)

Time flipped back a little. More than two hours ago, the east was white, and the genius had just lit up, outside Tokyo.

Sitting in the bumpy carriage and running along the official road for hundreds of miles, Cai Jiu, who had always lived a pampered life, was a little overwhelmed. Finally, after the vehicle turned around again and almost hit the wall of the car, he roared inside: "Stay!"

This scream was still very useful. The galloping carriage stopped, but it still made Cai Dezhang pounce forward due to inertia, and his head was knocking against the baffle in front, which made him dizzy again. After reaching out for a long time, he still leaned on the guard outside to help lift the curtain, revealing the blue sky and white sun outside, and countless cavalry infantry on the carriage.

"Prince..." Before the guard could ask what he ordered, Cai Dezhang pushed him away, rushed out of the car with his legs soft, lowered his head and spit out all the things in his stomach, and then coughed again. After a while, he calmed down and wiped the marks on the corner of his mouth with his embroidered sack. He asked, "Where is this, and how long will it take to arrive in Tokyo."

"Now it is less than fifty miles away from Tokyo. If you climb over the hillside in front, you should see the capital." The confidant hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "I just don't know if we can still hurry..."

"We will definitely be able to hurry up and order the entire army to continue to advance at full speed. We must arrive at the city of Tokyo before noon. We have an insider in the city, and as long as we arrive, we will be able to successfully enter. At that time, great achievements will be at your fingertips!" Cai Dezhang finally recovered after taking a few deep breaths and said loudly. This was told to the subordinates around him who followed him from Jiangzhou, because he knew very well how big the difficulties they would encounter next.

"Ao... Kill into Tokyo and save Your Majesty and the Grand Tutor!" These soldiers were greatly encouraged and shouted loudly. After Cai Jiu returned to the car, he accelerated and rushed forward again.

At this time, the genius was just shining. Judging from this speed, they could indeed arrive in Tokyo before noon, and the momentum of these tens of thousands of people could almost cover up the world along the way. Half an hour later, they had already climbed up the last ridge, and even saw the outline of Tokyo's Bianliang City from afar. It seemed that as long as they sprinted another time, they could reach the city without any obstacles!

Back to the present. In Tokyo City, outside the Xiangguo Temple, the prison official Tong Mu has read the imperial edict in his hand to the end. Although the edict is gorgeous and there are too many things around, the content is actually very simple. That is, the emperor has already determined that Cai Jing and others have committed serious crimes, so he decided to kill the treacherous minister and his family in public...

When this meaning spread to the crowd, the people who had already come here became more and more excited. Amid the cheers, the crowd unconsciously rushed forward, as if they wanted to get closer to these dying treacherous ministers, so that they could see more clearly when their heads landed.

When this scene fell into the eyes of Cai Jing and others, their faces, which were already quite numb, were miserable again. It turned out that the people had long resented themselves to wait for their hearts and wished they were about to die, but they didn't have this opportunity before, but now they have completely vented.

Then, they heard a more desperate voice: "Noon is coming, and it is clear that the prisoner is right!"

With Tong Mu's long shout, the soldiers behind them quickly came forward, carefully checked their appearance, and also removed the wooden shackles on the necks of the prisoners to facilitate the subsequent torture. With the loud shouts of "It is proved correct!", Cai Jing and others were quickly pressed to the ground. Many soldiers quickly reached out to step on the ground, and raised their swords in their hands with both hands, waiting for a command to chop down and kill them on the spot.

It was not until this moment that the final fear surged from everyone's heart like a tide. They, who had already acted quite numb, suddenly burst into tears and shouted out unjustly: "I'm unjust. I've always been upright as an official and have never harmed anyone. This is Sun Tu's conspiracy to seize power in order to eliminate dissidents..."

"Your Majesty, I'm wronged. I've been loyal to the court for decades and have never been slackened for a moment. What Sun Tu said is lies, and the people are just chess pieces that he incited..."

"You are all deceived by Sun Tu. As long as I die, your Majesty will fall into Sun Tu's hands. Your situation will only be even more unbearable than before..."

These people were struggling dyingly and shouting loudly. However, their voices could only be heard clearly by the soldiers around them waiting for execution. The people far away were cheering and scolding, and no one could hear clearly what they were calling. Everyone stared at these treacherous corrupt officials who were waiting for their heads to be cut off by the knife, only worrying about why time was so slow and wishing that they would die early.

In the palace far apart, Zhao Ji, who was sitting in the hall in a lonely and clear manner, suddenly looked up at the sky outside with some emotion, his face full of fear: "It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon..."

"It's already three o'clock in the afternoon, I'm ready to execute the execution!" Tong Mu stared at the sundial in front of him for a moment, and then shouted. The red pen in his hand suddenly hooked on a thick command arrow. After another swing, the command arrow with the word "big slash" had been thrown to the ground in front of him.

The arrow fell to the ground and the knife was raised!

Even Cai Jing, who was as stable as Mount Tai, felt a wave of fear and grabbed his heart: "Why didn't anyone come to save me at this time? Is there something wrong?" As his mind turned around, he saw a black shadow flashing from the restaurant in front of him, crossing nearly a hundred steps away, and with a swish, he directly penetrated into the chest of the soldier who was about to slash this knife behind him, causing his burly body to stagger, and then he fell back with the knife.

This arrow was a signal. After flying out, it caused a sudden change in the surroundings. Hundreds of strong men holding sharp blades jumped up in the crowd. They shouted in unison: "We will save loyal ministers with the imperial edict of Your Majesty and kill rebels!" Before the shouting was complete, people were already like strange birds rushing straight to the execution ground in front of them, waving swords, which scared countless people around them to scream and flee, and instantly impacted the order of the court order into chaos.

There were already a group of soldiers between the crowd and the prisoners, but at this moment, because the people were frightened and ran away, they rushed to the neat queue, causing loopholes in their formation to appear instantly. The murderers holding sharp blades rushed forward under the cover of the people, raised their swords and killed the soldiers and generals who were caught off guard. In just a blink of an eye, no less than thirty or forty soldiers fell under the hands of these people. As the blood surged, the people became even more panicked and fled around, which gave them more opportunities to lean forward.

Tong Mu on the high-level prison slashing platform saw that his face turned pale and shouted: "Defend the execution ground and don't let anyone get close to..." Before he finished speaking, a whoosh, a feather arrow suddenly flew from a distance. If a guard beside him had not pulled him to the side in time and flashed to the side, he would have been afraid that he would be shot at the arrow. But even so, he was so scared that he could no longer speak out, making the situation on the court more chaotic. The personal soldiers under his command had only had time to raise shields, guard him, and carried him straight downwards, and did not dare to stay in such a striking height to face the archer's sneak attack.

As a result, the situation on the scene became more and more critical. The soldiers and generals around the court were already at a loss by this sudden attack, and the people were attacking them, making them afraid of weapons and unable to make real moves. Often, when they were in a state of mind, those guys mixed with the people would suddenly kill the killer and stab the sword into the vital points of these soldiers. For a moment, they succeeded one after another, and the last line of defense in front of the execution ground had been torn apart, and the murderers had gathered into a torrent and rushed in, and came to the officials who were still lying on the ground. Around them, the soldiers who were acting as executioners had fallen to the ground, and all died of cold arrows. Only a few people retreated to the rear under the leadership of the general in prison uniform, but they didn't care to stop them from saving people...

"Trial Master, the young Cai Jiante is here to save him." The murderer in the lead helped Cai Jing up from the ground and said loudly. Then, without waiting for Cai Jing to reply, he forced the other party and ran straight to the side. The rescue operation began, and there were too many troubles waiting for them to deal with one by one, so there was no delay at all.

The same goes for the others. They all helped one person up and followed Cai Jian toward a opened passage on the side. On both sides of the passage, there were murderers slashing and killing the people around them with their knives, scaring the people around them to run elsewhere.

At the same time, dozens of fire suddenly appeared in the city, causing more and more chaos in the whole city. Obviously, this is also their follow-up trick to rescue Cai Jing and others. These potential forces of Cai Jing and others who have been hiding since Sun Tu entered the city finally broke out completely at this moment and appeared in front of everyone.

On the high tower of Xiangguo Temple, the man still had a faint smile on his face, looking down at the extremely chaotic scene below, and sighed softly: "Sun Tu, it seems that you are just like this. You are so underestimating the enemy. I just used a little trick to completely disrupt the situation in Tokyo. Not only did I rescue people, but even this city will soon fall into my control. And you will become my first stepping stone to the peak!" As he said that, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the Yue Hou Mansion in the distance...

At this time, a team of gray-clothed swordsmen suddenly appeared around Suntu's mansion. Without any hesitation, they rushed straight towards the shortest courtyard wall on the west side of Yuehou Mansion like a whirlwind.
