The intense sound of war drums covered the fields.

The sound of trumpets was overwhelming, and hundreds of thousands of royal soldiers came out in line, laying square formations under the city of Hanjing, with flags waving and crowds of people.

The general lieutenant galloped in front of the formation.

The brigade coaches stood in front of the team and shouted, and the veterans such as the flag bearer and flag were also scolded the clumsy and somewhat panicked new recruits.

One hundred thousand people are enough to surround the entire Han capital.

On the Imperial River in front of the Hanjing Water Gate, Li Chao's King's fleet also patrolled the river. They were like a sharp sword, and could attack the Hanjing Water Gate at any time.

This water gate was originally an important cargo ship transportation channel in Hanjing City, and it was connected with several canals passing through the city. Even the imperial city and the moat outside the palace were directly connected.

After one army after another, siege equipment was also preparing.

Siege ladders, siege rams, siege stone chariots, even large crossbows, ladders, bridges across trenches

In fact, all this is not necessary at all.

"King of Yue, there are shouts of killing in the city. It seems that the rebels are infighting."

Wang Chengen, who observed the military appearance, said to Li Chao excitedly.

Li Chao set up a formation slowly outside the city, but the city was also shouting and killing the sky, and even seeing several fireworks rising in the city.

Li Chao was wearing a helmet and armor, sitting under the banner of the central army.

A grand master chair made of red sandalwood was covered with a white bear skin. Li Chao sat under the big banner, leaning on his sword in both hands, and just smiled slightly at Wang Chengen's words.

"Eunuch Wang, it seems that this is true."

"Then let's attack the city immediately. What are you waiting for? Take this opportunity to attack the city in one fell swoop."

Li Chao was unmoved.

At this time, Han Jing City will definitely not be able to defend its attack, but now it is attacking. What if Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng are not dead yet, if they capture the queen and prince as hostages, what will Li Chao do?

If the queen and the prince have a little difference, Li Chao will be in trouble.

Li Chao will not take the blame.

"Eunuch Wang, don't underestimate the enemy's carelessness. The battle of trapped beasts is also very ferocious. I also want to attack Hanjing immediately, but we can't be anxious. Let the generals leave the attack on the city, they know how to do it!"

There are few cavalrymen for the 100,000 royal army, but there are also thousands.

At this time, they were divided into several parts and patrolled the military formation between the various city gates.

Seeing that Li Chao was not in trouble, Wang Chengen had no choice but to go back to his side.

"Continue to beat the drum!"

Li Chao sat there and ordered loudly.

A captain yelled his orders, and the flag bearer on a cloud car behind him immediately waved the red and blue flags to convey the commander's order to various military formations.

The war drums made even more exciting sounds.

Inside the Hanjing City.

It's already in chaos.

The army of Kings arrived at the city and the restoration was over. Before the attack, Li Chao wrote a few letters, and then immediately many generals and officials in the capital rushed to see him.

When the trumpet of the attack of the King's Army blew this morning, more than half of the tens of thousands of defenders in the city immediately turned against each other.

For those who come to fly in times of great trouble.

A country can perish, but a family cannot perish.

Li Shentong and Li Daozong led their troops to attack the palace and fought fiercely with Qianniu Guards. Other generals who turned against each other also led their troops anyway.

The city was full of chaos. It was a comrade-in-arms one moment before, but the next moment it became an enemy.

Qu Tutong, Ma Zhou and others in the East Palace also received Li Chao's letter in advance. When the war drum sounded outside the Han capital, the city fought in a melee, so Qu Tutong, the defense envoy of the Beijing Capital, immediately led 8,000 soldiers out of the East Palace, making the battle in the Han capital even more fire.

Li Shentong was wearing silver armor and holding a Mo knife in his hand. He pointed at the guards in the city ahead, "Capture this gate and seal your wife and children, today!"

Royal Palace.

Li Yuan was disheveled with hair and covered in blood.

He has become a lonely man.

"Who are you? Li Shentong, Li Daozong, Li Chao, or Li Shimin?" Li Yuan asked the few palace maids standing in front of him.

Although they were dressed as palace maids, their eyes revealed the cold murderous intent that palace maids could not have. This is an assassin, definitely not a palace maid.

A palace maid walked forward slowly with a sword.

"I'm the assassin under the six doors."

"Oh, did he ask you to kill me from Li Shimin? Does Li Shimin have no courage to kill the lord and father himself, but he wants to use this kind of assassination method?"

Li Yuan waved his sword and slashed at her. Although the assassin seemed petite, he could move quickly and easily avoid it. He also pulled Li Yuan's long sword down with one sword.

The sword pointed to Li Yuan's throat.

The assassin leaned into his ear and said in a low voice, "The King of Yue asked someone to convey his greetings to His Majesty, and His Majesty can be on the road with peace of mind."

"Li Chao? Are you Li Chao's person?"

"I am both from the Six Gates and from the King of Yue." After the female assassin said, she cut Li Yuan's carotid artery with one sword, and blood splattered, and Li Yuan felt a sudden expression.

He covered his neck with his hand and said intermittently, "Hahaha, Erlang has a dangerous dog, and there is always one he will regret."

Li Yuan fell to the ground.

The assassin looked at the dead Supreme Emperor, squatted down and confirmed his death, and turned around and left.

"The Supreme Emperor and the Deposed Crown Prince died?" Li Chao asked Wang Chengen in a shocked manner.

Wang Chengen nodded, and his six doors under him reported to him personally. The Supreme Emperor and the deposed prince were both assassinated by them, and the assassin asked him for credit. Wang Chengen was not happy at all, although the emperor gave him the secret order to assassinate the Supreme Emperor and the deposed prince.

But Wang Chengen hoped that Li Chao would act, and the emperor also had this meaning.

But now, the death of the Supreme Emperor and the deposed prince has nothing to do with Li Chao.

This guy is completely out of the way.

"The news has been confirmed and there will be no errors."

"Do you know how he died?" Li Chao asked.

Wang Chengen hesitated for a moment, "Li Shentong and Li Daozong have already attacked the palace, and our family is probably killed by the soldiers under their command."

Wang Chengen turned the blame on Li Shentong and Li Daozong.

Li Chao laughed in his heart. He knew that Li Shentong and the others were innocent, but Li Chao would never take the blame for the regicide. He was originally going to throw it to Wang Chengen. Since Wang Chengen gave it to Li Shentong two more, he wouldn't care.

The war drums outside the city were still beating, and the soldiers of the King's Army were still standing in line.

The south gate of Hanjing had already opened. At this time of the civil war in the city, the soldiers who turned against each other finally had the upper hand. There were not many people who really wanted to fight for the Supreme Emperor. Many of them were just caught off guard and could not even turn against each other.

"Taifu, the gate of Hanjing has been opened!"

Li Chao laughed loudly, and he stood up with his sword in his arms.

The Supreme Emperor was dead, the deposed prince was dead, and Empress Changsun and Prince Chengqian were safe, and nothing could stop him from entering the Han capital.
Chapter completed!
