Chapter 146: Yang Conspiracy
The order was issued quickly, and Yu Sheng ordered the remaining soldiers who were still patrolling outside to go to the site of the incident. The remaining soldiers still guarded important areas and were not allowed to act without authorization.
The killer move that had been waiting for finally came. The hidden twenty or thirty fine works ran around the city, burning, killing, looting, and at a very fast speed. For a moment, fires rose in Dongxuan City, screaming in tears.
Due to the insufficient number of patrol sergeants, they were unable to reach all the incident sites as soon as possible, which made the flames ignited more rapidly. In just a moment, the flames soared into the sky and formed a whole.
The people in the residential area no longer cared about martial law orders and came out of their homes and tried their best to put out the fire.
However, the enemy took advantage of this phenomenon to shuttle through various streets and kill innocent people.
In this way, a vicious cycle was formed. The patrol soldiers were exhausted and fired everywhere in the city. All fire-fighting tools were used, and so many flames could not be eliminated. The ordinary people had no cultivation at all. In front of enemies at the advanced level of monks, they had no power to fight back and were chopped and killed at will.
There was chaos everywhere, and the news came back like raindrops, and the expression on Yu Sheng's face became more and more serious.
The other party adopted the same strategy.
Conspiracy.
The other party told himself that if he did not send troops, he could destroy Dongxuan City by just these exposed fine works. If they were allowed to make trouble, half of Dongxuan City would be destroyed in this fire without dawn. And countless people died in this fire.
This will bring about a more troublesome chain reaction. If you lose your virtue in the hearts of the people, it will shake the foundation of the Eastern Prince's Mansion and the consequences will be unimaginable.
However, the three places that need protection are obviously equally important.
The city gate prevents the enemy from escaping. The walls around Dongxuan City are dozens of feet high, and it is impossible to climb directly with human power alone. If you want to leave the city, there is only one way to go. If you lose this place, the enemy can escape directly and leave.
The Martial Palace, let alone the military armor and weapons stored here, the backup military rations stored in the arsenal alone will be worth millions of kilograms. This is the foundation of Dongxuan City. If the arsenal is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The City Lord’s Mansion, Huang Yuanwu and Yu Sheng were in the City Lord’s Mansion. According to previous analysis, the enemy’s intention was to come towards them. If the defense here was withdrawn and all the soldiers went to put out the fire, the enemy would immediately pounce on him if he lost this place.
Yu Sheng frowned. The soldiers in his hand were already in a difficult position to protect these three places. If they were divided into divisions, they would definitely reveal flaws and would not be able to look at each other from beginning to end and make mistakes.
When Huang Yuanwu heard the first sound of the sky, he pushed open the door, stood outside quietly, observing around.
Seeing the first fire disappear, his brows frowned. He believed in the ability of the rest of his life, but he also understood the other party's methods, and he was still a little worried.
After a while, the surroundings were filled with fire, Huang Yuanwu's eyes were shining cold, and he immediately knew what was happening in his heart. Looking around, there were hundreds of soldiers who were just staying in the courtyard to protect him, all of whom were anxious.
Most of the soldiers stationed in Dongxuan City started their families in Dongxuan City. At this moment, there was a fire in the city. It was not just one or two places, but the fire was soaring into the sky. They naturally worried about comfort at home. But the military order was helpless.
"Everyone, follow me to the front yard!" Huang Yuanwu looked around and immediately made a decision, stepped apart and rushed straight to the front yard.
Huang Yuchen also woke up in meditation and stood behind Huang Yuanwu. After hearing the elder brother's order, he immediately followed him.
The soldiers around him clearly heard Huang Yuanwu's orders without hesitation. Following Huang Yuanwu's pace, they lined up in two neat teams and headed straight to the front yard.
Huang Yuanwu was extremely fast. He walked through the backyard in a few steps, came to the front, entered the front hall, and saw Yu Sheng sitting in the front hall frowning, and stepped forward and said, "Brother Yu, come with me!"
Yu Sheng was stunned when he heard this, looked up and saw Huang Yuanwu, and subconsciously said, "Little Prince, why are you coming out?"
"If you don't come out, the entire Dongxuan City will be destroyed." Huang Yuanwu glanced at Yu Sheng. He knew in his heart that Yu Sheng had a solution, but he could not perform it because of himself. He continued: "Brother Yu, follow me to the arsenal, so that there will be a lack of a defensive position and more soldiers can be freed to put out the fire."
"But..." Yu Sheng heard this and quickly stood up and said, "The other party was obviously coming to you, the little prince. If you go out now, I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of?" Huang Yuanwu glared and said, "I am so afraid of death, so I don't want to be this little prince! The people are in the midst of water and fire. As descendants of the empire, they do not save the people and are afraid of death. Do you want me to violate the ancestral teachings?"
Huang Yuanwu said something so hard that he was speechless for the rest of his life. He naturally knew Qi Tian’s ancestral teachings, but now the only one who is executed according to this ancestral teachings is probably the only one in the Eastern Palace.
"All soldiers obey orders!" Huang Yuanwu ignored Yu Sheng, but stood in the front hall and shouted loudly. The hundreds of soldiers in the courtyard immediately knelt on one knee and obeyed Huang Yuanwu's orders.
"All soldiers, go to put out the fire immediately, and separate from the team as units. If you see someone committing a crime, you can kill them on the spot. Save people as the main thing, and don't fight!" Huang Yuanwu stood in front of the front hall, his eyes were Zhuo Zhuo, and he was invincible without anger. After ordering, all the soldiers immediately stood up and took the team as units to come out of the city lord's mansion.
In a moment, hundreds of soldiers in the city mansion attacked and headed straight for the sea of fire. At this moment, except for Huang Yuanwu, Yu Sheng and Huang Yuchen, there were only a team of Yu Sheng's personal guard soldiers, only five.
"So, let's go to the treasury as soon as possible." Seeing the last team of soldiers leaving the city lord's mansion, Yu Sheng looked around and said quickly.
Huang Yuanwu nodded, looked back at Huang Yuchen, and without saying a word, he went out from the front door and walked onto the street.
Huang Yuchen followed closely, and then there were Yu Sheng and his five guards.
After leaving the city lord's mansion, the five guards walked away and wrapped the three people in the middle, and kept their swords away, and were fully alert.
Of course they knew the seriousness of the situation and knew how much risk the Emperor Yuan Wu ordered. Therefore, the road from the City Lord's Mansion to the Wu Mansion was entirely protected by him and the five of them.
Several people walked on the bluestone street, walking very fast.
The surging fire shone red from afar, and the flames shone everywhere, illuminating the entire Dongxuan City and the night sky.
Huang Yuchen followed Huang Yuanwu, his footsteps kept stopping, and the Dou Qi slowly circulated in his meridians. Two formed formation talismans were already carved on his hands. He was fully alert. If someone suddenly attacked and released the formation talisman paper, he would crack it as soon as possible.
The surroundings are bright, and the Wu Mansion is not far from the City Lord's Mansion. After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, several people headed south, and a large road directly led to the treasury gate. This journey usually takes one stick of incense, and a few people can reach it quickly, at most half a stick of incense.
At this moment, the shops on both sides of the road were closed and dark, as if there was no one. When everyone was walking on this road, they felt silence around them, and the sound of shouting and killing from afar seemed to be inaudible.
It's too quiet nearby, and it's a bit unusual.
Huang Yuchen suddenly felt his heart moving, his hands slid quickly in the air, and the spell seal that cracked the illusion appeared quickly in the air, with a faint yellow light flashing.
"Break!" Huang Yuchen shouted loudly, and the talisman flashing with yellow light suddenly scattered and turned into light and rushed around.
In an instant, the surroundings changed, and the originally silent environment slowly began to twist. The twist became faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, the things on both sides were shattered like paper, revealing their original appearance in front of them.
After leaving for a while, the few people found themselves still in front of the city lord's mansion, with fire everywhere, no shops or so silent.
"Be careful, the enemy's subordinates' illusion array was unknown at some point. At this moment, we are in the formation. Although I have cracked the first level, I don't know if I have any backup." Huang Yuchen took a breath. Just now, he felt a strange fluctuation in the surrounding aura. This fluctuation was exactly the same as the fluctuation he felt when he was in Cangmang Mountain, so he immediately used the cracking formation and indeed broke through the enemy's illusion.
The sudden change in the surrounding scenery made everyone frown. None of them felt that they were in the illusion. The illusion was very real. After walking in front of the rest of their lives, they even saw the soldiers on duty in front of the martial arts palace.
"Damn it!" Yu Sheng cursed, his whole body was filled with fighting spirit, and the red fighting spirit surged into the sky, surrounding his body, slowly surging.
The other few people also inspire the fighting spirit, and a red light soars into the sky for a moment. Huang Yuchen was surprised to find that besides Yu Sheng and his elder brother Huang Yuanwu, the other five guards were all martial arts cultivation. Judging from the color of the fighting spirit, the lowest one was also the intermediate level of the warrior. If we talk about combat power, at this moment, we must be the lowest one.
"The spiritual consciousness is fully opened, and I slowly move forward. Now I haven't found the enemy, so there must be a backup behind me!" Huang Yuanwu said quickly to the people around him, and the light red mist surging all over his body. At this moment, he adjusted his condition to the best.
Yu Sheng nodded slightly, his spiritual consciousness was fully opened, and he walked slowly forward. The rest of the people followed slowly, all of whom were released from fighting spirit and were in a state of full vigilance.
Huang Yuchen did not release the fighting spirit. The seven people around him had the cultivation level of a martial artist for the rest of their lives, and the other six were all martial artists. If they could not block the enemy's attack, even if they were at the peak, they would definitely not be the enemy's opponent. His advantage lies in his affinity for the formation. At this moment, he was alert and carefully paid attention to the surrounding aura. If there was any fluctuation, he would use the cracking formation as soon as possible.
Surprisingly, the few people behind were fully alert, but they saw the gate of the Martial Palace from afar and never encountered any obstacles. These people seemed to have used a formation outside the city lord's mansion and never had any moves.
Huang Yuanwu frowned, but he didn't think about it carefully. The few people walked a few steps and came to the gate of the Wu Mansion. When they saw the team of soldiers on duty, they felt a little relieved.
The sergeant saw a few people coming from afar, and a red fighting spirit spread out. He was on guard and was about to ask, but saw Yu Sheng's appearance and immediately knelt on one knee.
Everyone walked closer and Yu Sheng asked softly: "How about it, are there any abnormal movements?"
"Go back to the general, near the Martial Palace, there was no abnormal movement." The sergeant captain led by the leader replied immediately.
"Okay!" Yu Sheng nodded, looked back at Huang Yuanwu, turned around, and knocked rhythmically on the gate of the arsenal for a few moments. After a while, the gate of the arsenal opened. A soldier saw someone coming outside and immediately knelt down and gave up the door.
The Yu Sheng took the lead, and a team of seven people entered the arsenal. The sergeant immediately stood up and turned around and closed the door.
The moment the door was closed, a sharp light shot out from the soldiers' eyes.
