"Is this outside the city really Xiao Ming's?"

In the Ge Mansion in Chang'an City, Ge Yiren asked the housekeeper anxiously.

"Master, it's true. I heard from the general who led the army with my own ears. When the cavalry went outside Chang'an City, he claimed that he was from Qingzhou, and he took General Niu's greetings to visit many families outside the city." The butler said.

Ge Yiren looked complicated when he heard this, and he said, "That's what happened to Tongguan."

There were two people beside Ge Yiren, namely Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang. When they learned that cavalry appeared outside Chang'an, they came to Ge Yiren's house to discuss countermeasures.

"Mr. Ge, King Zhao was defeated in Juyongguan. The elite of King Zhao lost in this battle. Now the King Zhao is just at the end of his strength. Now Xiao Ming's troops have arrived, which shows that Niu Ben has conquered Hulao Pass and Tongguan. If he still watches the wall at this time, and waits for Niu Ben to take Chang'an, we will be a criminal who surrenders to the enemy and sells the country." Yu Zhiyong was a little anxious.

Ni Kuang said, "That's right, let alone King Zhao was crazy. He looted Luoyang and drove the people into Zhao territory. Now he has such thoughts about Chang'an. Lord Ge, this Chang'an is the foundation of our great clan. If you lose you, I will be just a dog that is a loser." Ni Kuang said.

Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang were anxious, but Ge Yiren was not anxious at all, because he had already sent a secret letter to Niu Ben during the battle of Juyongguan.

However, this was not enough for him. If you want to integrate into Xiao Ming's court in the future, you must bring merits. So he said: "I understand the thoughts of the two. King Zhao is unrighteous, which has caused resentment from heaven and others. How can we continue to serve him like this? We should raise troops with the current emperor to attack him."

Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang were immediately excited. This was the first time Ge Yiren directly expressed his intention to deal with King Zhao.

Ge Yiren glanced at the two of them and continued, "No further ado, we will mobilize the troops in the family and at the same time contact the tribesmen in the imperial guards to rebellion."

"Mr. Ge, if this is the case, we will go back and prepare." The two bowed their hands and turned around and left.

Watching the two leave, Ge Yiren said to the butler: "You are now concentrating on the invasion of the city and let them wait for my order to open the city gate at any time."

"Yes, master." The butler's face was solemn. These divisions were arranged by their Ge family to the city. If exposed, their Ge family would have no way out.

When officials were looking for a way out for themselves, news about the cavalry also reached the ears of King Zhao, which shocked King Zhao.

"Tongguan is lost! Why didn't Sun Lirong send anyone to send news?" King Zhao paced back and forth, and the sudden appearance of the cavalry completely broke his plan.

Zhao Yuanliang said: "Father, I'm afraid Sun Lirong either surrenders or dies."

"No one is useful at critical moments."

King Zhao beat the memorial in front of him to the ground. In the past two years, he has felt the feeling of being in power.

But now all this will leave him, he is really unwilling to accept it.

Now Xiao Ming's cavalry is outside the city, and the musket team will arrive one after another. He can't win the more than 200,000 coalition forces.

But it was too late for him to evacuate Chang'an now. There were no more than 30,000 trustworthy soldiers in Chang'an City.

This number of soldiers is obviously not the opponent of this cavalry.

Zhao Yuanliang was also thinking about this question, and he said, "Father, please withdraw. If you don't leave, it will be too late."

King Zhao has been through the battlefield for a long time, and he is much calmer than Zhao Yuanliang. Now this situation is all about fighting to the death, and they can't escape.

He believed that those who had bowed to him had now sharpened their swords and prepared to attack him. A trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes. He said to Zhao Yuanliang: "I can't escape, but I will not leave Xiao Ming a wealthy Chang'an. You can mobilize your army to massacre the city immediately."

"Massacre of the city!" Zhao Yuanliang said in dismay, in disbelief; "Father, this..."

"Yuanliang, Xiao Ming will not let us go, our Zhao State will be destroyed." King Zhao's voice contained a hint of desolation.

Zhao Yuanliang felt sad. How glory he had been in the past two years, countless gold, silver and treasures, endless beauties, and now all of this will be deprived.

Like King Zhao, in despair, a crazy thought suddenly surged in Zhao Yuanliang's heart, "Xiao Ming, what you will get will be a piece of scorched earth."

After nodding heavily, Zhao Yuanliang turned around and left, and then there was a sudden shrill scream in the palace.

At this moment, the Zhao king's imperial guards changed from protectors to destroyers. The imperial guards who received the order raised their butcher knives to the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace.

The once beautiful and peaceful palace suddenly turned into a Shura hell, and the soldiers burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil.

At the same time, another imperial guards entered the city. They raised their butcher knives to the people and killed them when they saw them. Some officials and the people were killed.

Whenever a house is slaughtered, they will ignite the house, and for a moment, the smoke of war emanates from all over Chang'an City.

The atrocities of the Zhao army soon spread in the city. The people and officials in Chang'an were frightened and fled everywhere, but some officials were very calm.

They immediately assembled the troops in the city, distributed weapons and armor to them, and went straight to the city gate.

The only army outside the city can be stopped.

The strangeness in Chang'an City also attracted the attention of Qi Guangyi and Bai Mu, and the rising smoke made them very confused.

"What's going on?" Qi Guangyi asked.

At this time, the eight thousand tribes had already gathered around them, and these tribes were supported by the great tribes outside the city.

As Niu Ben said, when they arrived outside Chang'an City, these wealthy families were very tactful and fell to the ground to accept their request to jointly attack King Zhao.

Bai Mu said: "The smoke comes one after another, I'm afraid there will be a big problem in Chang'an City."

Qi Guangyi's eyes turned and he said, "Can it be that the heroic tribe in the city fought with King Zhao first?"

"It shouldn't be true. War is a war, but it's like burning a house. Could it be that King Zhao is slaughtering the city!" Bai Mu exclaimed.

Qi Guangyi had just thought of this, and he said, "It is very likely that King Zhao has always been vicious, and he can do this."

After pausing, he said, "You can't wait anymore. If you wait any longer, this Chang'an City will probably become a ruin."

Bai Mu looked at the army composed of the children of the wealthy clan. At this time, a child of the wealthy clan said, "Don't worry, two generals, my clan leader has already ambushed the troops in the city. This time they will definitely open the city gate to meet us."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hunting cavalry suddenly came on horseback and said, "General Qi, the north gate of Chang'an is open."
