The silence that was not long afterwards was illuminated by a series of lights that flashed by hastily.

"Is there something wrong?"

When Empress Cao, who had already rested but had a lot of worries and was always sleeping lightly, was awakened faintly from the curtain of the main hall, she couldn't help but ask:

"There is nothing, but someone knocked on the palace overnight and was blocked by the guards on duty."

A feminine voice quickly replied:

"Empress Qibing is General Chai Zhonglang of the Taiping Army. He came to Tongbing with a token..."

Another female voice couldn't wait to answer:

"Killing talent, why didn't you inform us of this matter as soon as possible? How long have you been waiting?"

Queen Cao suddenly felt completely asleep and shouted sternly:

"This matter is probably not in accordance with the etiquette. The Queen Mother opens the palace with a precious body every night and will hinder the demeanor of the king and his ministers. It is still the court after dawn."

The inner official with a feminine voice quickly dissuaded:

"Can a bird be able to live the safety of the whole city?"

Queen Cao couldn't help but swear.

A moment later, in the Xidiaoyuan in Danfeng Gate, Empress Cao, who was already aware of this incident, asked without hesitation:

"It's really outrageous. This generation is so crazy. Xiaochai. What do you want to do? I have to send a command from the government to cooperate with you and copy this generation overnight?"

"The Empress's Profile, compared to the great things in it, my personal safety is a trivial matter."

Chai Ping bowed in a righteous voice:

"I just think about it. Since these thieves dare to take the initiative in the street, they are afraid that they will have more plans, and there will be more other moves and actions at the same time."

"You are right...Where is Meng Liushou? Summon it quickly."

Empress Cao suddenly woke up from a cold behind her back and asked quickly.

"The guards and Weihe Mansion in the palace are all on guard and take down the night-time people in the main hall first, and then send people to the guards of the gates to confirm the situation one by one..."

"Uncle Ge Cun also has to send someone to go there. Since your whereabouts have been leaked and you have set up an ambush in advance, I am afraid that the people in his house will not be able to escape this matter. And those who have made suggestions for this will all send someone to ask questions when the mansion has been there!!"

However, after her explanation, someone hurried to report:

"Empress, there are many fires in the city... Jingzhao Mansion is sending people to extinguish the fire..."

However, when everyone led by Empress Cao stood on the Danfeng Gate Tower and looked away, they could already smell the faint smell of burnt.

"It's not good that the main hall, the main hall and the Wanchun hall have fired...."

Then Empress Cao's face appeared with shock and panic. Chai Ping continued to speak:

"Empress, be careful of the way to attack the world..."

On the other side of Chang'an City, the Great General of the Tang Dynasty, one of the parties involved in the proposal of marriage, Zuo Pushe, the Secretary of the Procuratorate of the Great Qi Dynasty, was also walking through the streets and alleys with torches in the dark, and gathering groups of followers around him.

He was originally the son of Zhang Zhongwu, the governor of Lulong. After his father's death, he was once supported as Lulong's queen. However, because he was addicted to alcohol and abused his soldiers, he supported others and fled back to Chang'an in the name of hunting. Tang Ting's achievements and his father Zhang Zhongwu made him the General of Jinwu.

However, his temperament still remained unchanged. He once beaten and killed Jinwu envoys for minor crimes and demoted them to the commander-in-chief of the Right Yulin. Later, he repeatedly killed slaves in his family because of his minor faults and demoted them to the Sihu of Enzhou. During the Qianfu period, Prime Minister Zheng Tingyan re-appointed Zhang Zhifang as a hero and promoted to the position of General of the Left Jinwu Guard.

Until the contemporary polo emperor abandoned millions of soldiers and civilians in the capital and fled, as the leader who personally led the remaining civil and military officials to surrender, he and Liu Yunzhang, the left-behind ambassador of the branch Dongdu, happened to be the example of the surrender among the new surrenders in the Great Qi Dynasty.

Therefore, in the new dynasty after Huang Chao ascended the throne, he was also a very favorable role model. Not only did he have any harm in his family, he also gave him more rewards and granted land and houses. He also bluntly thought that he would buy a house in his house in the Fang District. Therefore, in today's Fang District, a small number of houses are under his name.

Then, he had a close contact with the upper class of the thief army, and personally guided and entertained them to enjoy various extravagant things and enjoy the banquet, roaming, fighting, and having fun. He also bought music from each other and gave them to each other's concubines to be happy, and he sang and sang happily until all night long.

Now, his self-deprecating and ganging with the thief finally got rewarded and cleared. As the special leniency and preferential treatment of the New Qi Dynasty, he not only could retain many family members as a ceremonial ceremony for their entry and exit, but also raised a large number of slaves and subordinates in their homes and other industries.

Therefore, after the thief army entered the city, those who had been scattered by the family members who had lost their homes, the family generals who were dismissed and expelled, and the lieutenant generals and soldiers who took off their robes and hid among the people in the city, were all placed under his cover and gathered into many industries under his name.

Some people were even arranged to be under the name of the City Inspection Office and the Zhufang Patrol Team on the spot, and became the eyewitness to inform him. Now the opportunity for him to endure his breasts and bear the weight has been waiting for him for a long time has finally arrived with the army at the city.

When he walked out of Ningxingfang in the northeast corner of Chang'an again, he saw the dimly lit Tonghua Gate at the end of Jiacheng; behind him, he had already followed and gathered a huge team.

However, the ones in the front were like Zhang Zhifang, wearing military robe and armor in the gate, catching swords and holding cards, holding spears and crossbows; but when they arrived in their back team, they immediately became messy in uniform, almost all kinds of outfits and weapons they had.

"According to the order of General Ge of the Jianmen Army, he led the Yong's name Yingying, and the five groups including Chiayi came to reinforce... Stay at the Siguan Guard here, please verify it."

Then, a military general who was in the front shouted in front of the city gate as he was familiar with the road.

However, a military academy popped out from the gatehouse of Tonghua Gate and shouted:

"I'm sure if I have the central palace's order attached. Now it is a special period. People who have not obtained the order of the internal order do not count the matters of defense."

"We came hurriedly after the empress's oral order. The token is here. Please send someone to check it out..."

The general who was calling said calmly:

Then the fence in the gatehouse was pushed open, and a small group of yawning soldiers quickly walked down the stairs. The head lieutenant still had the residual breath of wine, meat and fat. He was muttering:

"What kind of defense should I change at midnight? Can't I stay until the daytime?"

"It's really urgent for military personnel to be in need. Haven't you seen that there are fires in many places in the city? I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but I'm afraid of it..."

The general who called out the military officer patiently explained:

"Of course, the Empress is also particularly sympathetic to the hard work of the brothers in defending the city. We have brought us a lot of rewards, and some music is waiting in the border of the city."

"I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules..."

However, despite saying this, the captain and the soldiers behind him cheered up when they heard the sound, and hurried forward to look at the token with the lights for a few more glances at the token before sighing:

"This is probably the jade talisman wooden deed in the Central Palace... wait and wait for a while."

Then they quickly moved several barriers and horse-repellent objects in the gatehouse, and raised the crossbars and railings of the inner door; let Zhang Zhifang's "reinforcements" in the first place, and then they went back along the stairs to Tongbing.

However, the people led by Zhang Zhifang did not have the reason to wait for this. Soon after a few low explanations, they turned into several ways to act separately. Some took out axes and chisels to destroy nearby city defense facilities and cut off the ropes of the lifting mechanism;

Some touched the edge of the urn and used a cart filled with stones to kill the grooves that fell from the door gate; some used straw bags and cloth bales holding sand to block the holes used to set fire and dump raw ash, hot oil, charcoal and boiling water.

Zhang Zhifang and his team of most neatly-dressed soldiers rushed up the city wall without hesitation under the leadership of the general, and sternly scolded the soldiers guarding the stairs, waiting for their shock and panic to kill them on the spot.

Then they ran into the corridor beside the gatehouse and ran into another team of people with the words "Suiting City" and "Xiao Cao" and shouted and scolded:

"Who!!! How dare you break into the access control..."

At this moment, Zhang Zhifang also recognized it. The other party was the leader of Cao Qingxuan, who was in the patrol team as the son and nephew of Empress Cao; now he could no longer fool him.

In an instant, the battle broke out at the moment when Zhang Zhifang held the bow and shot the other party in the chest, and in a short period of time when the other party was caught off guard, it quickly ended with one-sided slaughter. Although the defenders on the city were lazy, they were not dead after all, and were soon disturbed, and lanterns and torches gathered here.

Fortunately, the manpower brought by Zhang Zhifang also completed the work inside the door, and followed the empty stairway to support and respond. The defenders gathered from both ends of the city wall were suddenly blocked by the sound of roaring and fighting weapons.

After a while, the brave men led by Zhang Zhifang even used some ready-made equipment on the city wall to seal the entrance and exit doors up and down the gatehouse, leaving him trapped inside and unable to get rid of it for a while. Then the defenders in the gatehouse poked out the window one after another and wanted to jump into them and fight, but he was shot and rolled down several times.

At this time, other people who were busy working under their cover also lit the number marked from the fire, and then worked together to lift the outgoing skeleton from the city. The remaining sparks that suddenly fell from the head of the city and splashed from the wall also illuminated the way ahead of a soldier crouching in the darkness not far from the moat.

And further away, like the moonlight covered by a veil, more armored lights are shining and surrounded by various instruments, rolling backwards like a dark tide that is overwhelming.

"This is where I made a special night view to watch..."

Cui Anqian was also speaking lightly at the generals of the army who were awakened from their respective tents on the grounds of watching the night. He also claimed a poem on the spot.

"The eyes of the sand are scattered thousands of miles away, and the sky is so sad that the black kite crys.

The iron armor frost is thick and the bones are cold, and thousands of horses are silent and tigers are shrinking.

The red horns are strong and the geese are tall with shadows, and the north wind is shaved with chestnuts and chestnuts on the knife.

The road is like lacquer when you hold a zipper at night, and the ice must fall into a magnificent and generous finger."
