Chapter 397 Troops Arrive at the Imperial Capital

In the imperial capital, outside the east city gate, there were not even a single citizen, and the ground was in a mess.

Outside the moat, a hundred thousand cavalry stretched for ten miles, with flags covering the sky, horses' hooves reaching, and dust flying.

At the front of the cavalry, surrounded by Murong Xiu, Jiang Man'er, Sai Qingzhu, five women, and hundreds of tiger generals, Xin Zhuo rode a two-horned demon horse and stared at the imperial capital and the "Shenwumen" in front of him.

He made a special detour. When he arrived by boat with Zhang Guangpu and others from the border area, he was shocked by the spectacular and majestic gate of the imperial capital, and even developed a sense of inferiority.

Now that I come back, I feel nothing.

This is the difference between mentality and status. When you are an ordinary citizen, you feel envious of even bigger houses. But when you become an official in a locality, you feel that the whole city is just like this.

But when you are an anti-king and plotting for the world, you will treat the imperial capital as nothing.

He withdrew his gaze, examined his body, and couldn't help but sigh sadly. His meridians shrank further, and his body was like a sieve, constantly losing lifespan. The journey of several hundred miles had already stolen the lifespan of more than 3,000 sacrificial souls.

If not for this, even if he had great abilities, he would be reduced to a withered skeleton now.

If he didn't have the status of King of Qin and had too many soldiers, how could he develop so many sacrifices to the spirits?

But having said that, everything in the world has gains and losses. The starting point for you to gain status and have countless lifespans to worship spirits is that you have to conquer the imperial power. But if you don’t conquer the imperial power, how could I create this situation?

His only hope now is to sacrifice the spirit of the Great Zhou Dynasty, then the Confucian spirit, and force the immigrants to enter the land. I think it will be better by then?

He smiled and turned around and asked Cui Ying'er: "You said on Fulong Mountain that year that the Longzhou Jiedushi led 30,000 cavalry to attack the imperial capital, but was repulsed by an old eunuch from the palace. I don't know what happened.

Will the old eunuch take action?"

Cui Ying'er's face froze, a little embarrassed and awkward: "I didn't know at first, and the nonsense I said was all told to me by the old boss!"

Back then, the old master was only at the ninth level, and she was a young girl who didn't know the slightest bit of martial arts. How much vision and structure did she have? It was all just hearsay, and even the realm of a warrior was specious.

"Shixian Palace doesn't dare!"

On the contrary, Ying Jianying stepped forward and said: "At that time, Longzhou Jiedu had only one or two prefectures and only thirty thousand soldiers. Because he was dissatisfied with the imperial court's troop reduction order, he came to the imperial capital to show off his power.

And His Highness owns tens of thousands of miles of land in the Western Qin Dynasty. Now he has conquered half of the country, has millions of soldiers, and has become an emperor. Even the immortals dare not stroke the tiger's beard!

Therefore, Longzhou Jiedushi and His Highness are not the same!"

Xin Zhuo stopped talking. He had already seen clearly the suspension bridge rising from the moat and the densely packed Zhou soldiers on the city wall. They were eagerly preparing to defend the city. A group of purple-robed officials and officials from the Sixth Division were waiting in formation.

"Your Highness! What should we do?" Jiang Man'er looked murderous and eager to give it a try.

Xin Zhuo was silent for a while and then ordered: "The emperor has no troops leaving the city. He arranged for his sons to build siege equipment, and then sent people to send a message to the city wall, saying that I, Jiang Yuqing, will enter the imperial capital to help Sheji!"

"Here!"

Jiang Man'er and dozens of generals went down to arrange everything.

Not far away, on higher ground, the guards had already set up a handsome tent.

Xin Zhuo dismounted and walked into the handsome tent. His body twitched instantly, white hair grew on his head, and he staggered a little.

"Your Highness!" Ying Jianying, Sai Qingzhu, Cui Yinger and others who followed in were shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Xin Zhuo shook his head, sat cross-legged at the desk, and once again grabbed the life span of the new sacrifice spirit.

After a while, the white hair on his head turned black again, but the problem of the meridians could not be solved.

On the way, he tried to use "xxxx" medical skills for treatment, but it was of no use. It was as if the hidden injury came from heaven and earth and could not be cured by medical skills at all.

"Your Highness, are you really okay?"

Sai Qingzhu, Hongshu and others, who had been worried all the way, had tears in their eyes and were crying.

Cui Ying'er and Han Qiniang also turned their heads and wiped away tears.

Xin Zhuo's physical condition was very clear to the few people who were close to him. Sometimes his appearance would age easily, and sometimes it would return to normal, but there was unbearable pain on his face. This was completely different from when His Highness pretended to be ill and killed the masters of the imperial court.

!

They knew that there was something really wrong with King Qin’s health!

Xin Zhuo is not only their master, but also their spiritual support. He is also the master of tens of thousands of miles of land and millions of troops in Western Qin. If he is missing, the sky will fall.

"No need to cry! It's okay!"

Xin Zhuo comforted a few people, but unexpectedly the crying started to get louder. His temper was so innocent that he wouldn't talk like this at all, he would only tease people.

"Okay!" Xin Zhuo had no choice but to change the subject, "Have Tai Xun Gong and the others arrived?"

He led his army to approach the imperial capital, and Tai Xun Gong and others pursued him all the way. After all, where the King of Qin is, the military and political center of Western Qin will be there.

Before Sai Qingzhu and the others could reply, Tai Xun Gong and others' embarrassed replies came from outside: "I've been waiting for you!"

As he spoke, the curtain opened, and a group of people including Mr. Taixun, Song Laochu and Yu Siliu walked in.

"Does Your Highness have any specific plan?" Taixun said straight to the point: "Should we attack the imperial capital, or..."

Xin Zhuo smiled and asked instead: "Gentlemen, why don't you talk about the situation in the world first? As I expected, I'm afraid it won't be good."

Tai Xun Gong and others looked at each other, and Song Lao Chu smiled bitterly and said: "That's right! As His Highness said, our army also suffered heavy casualties in the two battles. Not only that, the Nan Li Army once again increased its troops, and Su Wuji and Nan Ling

Wang joined forces, abandoned the front line of Damang Mountain, and killed Lin Haotian and others.

In the north, Bai Xuanji encountered a desperate attack from the elite troops of the Nine Front Army!

Other soldiers and horses from all walks of life were also bitten by the local powerful and local magistrates, governors, and military governors!"

After a pause, he sighed: "The Great Zhou Qi is not exhausted yet!"

The actual meaning of "not exhausted" is that the people's livelihood is not so bad that they can't survive, the landlords feel that their small life is good, the current royal family is okay, and you rebel against the king, what if you touch my cake? My land and

Is there still wealth? That’s not possible!

Of course, there are also many truly loyal, courageous and benevolent people!

Sometimes some people just can’t accept it!

From this aspect, Western Qin was evil and defied the disapproval of the world.

Yu Siliu hesitantly handed over a stack of thick memorials.

Xin Zhuo took it, flipped through a few pages at random, and sighed. From his own perspective, they were all idiots who resisted tenaciously, but thinking from another perspective, they were all heroic deeds of King Qin’s divisions from all over the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Why did Ma Degao, the prefect of Jianglin Prefecture, lead all the loyal men in the prefecture to defend the city to the death, fighting bloody battles for three days and three nights, the city was broken, and all the men in the city died in battle!

Why did Yin, the magistrate of Lianjiang County, lead his family of more than 300 men and all the county government officials to fight to the death until no one survived?

Wait, wait, wait, I can’t finish telling all the wonderful and touching stories.

Instead, he became second to "An Lushan"! Fortunately, he didn't have a son!

Xin Zhuo smiled and threw it aside.

Taixun Gong struggled for a while and said: "Besides, there are still capable people in the court. The old Marquis Ninglingbo has many talented people. He fights in various places. He does not fight directly with our army. He just sets fire to the granaries in various places.

Jing, and falsely conveyed the imperial edict and recruited the troops of the Qinwang from all over the world. Our Western Qin army was trapped in a quagmire.

Food and grass... I'm afraid it will be difficult to sustain for three months! The Imperial Capital..."

The implication is that the Imperial City cannot be defeated!

"No need to attack the imperial capital!"

Xin Zhuo's original intention was not to capture the imperial capital. The people's support has not been lost, and the court officials are not treacherous and incompetent. If he wants to capture such a powerful city that has existed in the world for hundreds of years, let alone a mere 100,000 cavalry, he will dispatch another three to five million.

It’s quite annoying!

"Then... what is the purpose of the soldiers outside building siege equipment?" Tai Xun Gong and others asked in surprise.

Xin Zhuo stood up, walked to the handsome tent door, and looked at the majestic Zhou Dynasty: "Scare them, and then ask for benefits, money and food, step on Da Zhou's face into the smelly ditch, and ask Ji Chunjiu to abdicate, the emperor

I stand!"

Of course, we have to sacrifice the spirit!

Today I was chatting with a little girl, but my wife was chasing her with a knife for a whole day. I hid in the Internet cafe and coded words. I'm sorry! There will be three more chapters to be added later! The typos will be corrected immediately!
