Chapter 385: Family, Country, World (Five)
There was already chaos in front of the palace gate of Xingqing Palace. Two large groups of soldiers were fighting in a melee, shouting, begging for mercy, wailing, and the sound of blades colliding together. The sword and sword shadows flashed under the faint firelight. There was no formation, no drums or command against the two sides, and even the armor they were wearing could not be distinguished. In the vast night fog, they were already confused and could not tell who was whose camp. The only way to distinguish between the enemy and me was to guard Xingqing Palace and attack Xingqing Palace.
Bian Lingcheng led his army to the scene one hour ago. He immediately commanded the soldiers to attack the gate, but things were not as simple as Li Yu expected. There were still a thousand left-behind troops in Xingqing Palace. It was these thousand people who used bows and arrows to resist the attack, which won time so that Chen Xuanli's reinforcements could finally return in time.
At this moment, Chen Xuanli was shouting loudly, directing his army to intersect and siege, trying to cut off the invading enemy, but the effect was frustrating. He could no longer tell the difference between you and me. When he ran alone, he would take the people around him to run together. He even caught the two people who had just been fighting against each other. After several runs, he became a fighter and fought against another unknown faction.
This is an unbearable battle, and it is even a bit ridiculous. The soldiers seemed to be like national football players from a certain country in later generations. They reacted slowly and hesitated. They looked like lead bags tied on their legs, and they also looked like patients with severe hemorrhoids. They turned around or avoided them. Perhaps they were worried that they would kill the wrong person, and the knife they cut down was weak and weak. Some people were even cut several times, but they had not seen blood yet.
The efficiency of the war was extremely low. It had been killing for nearly an hour and a half and was almost still wandering around. There were no corpses piled up like mountains, and no blood flowed into a river. This battle was probably over until everyone was exhausted and slumped on the ground.
But the two thousand people who Chen Xuanli stayed at Xuande Gate to continue attacking gradually fell into hell. They were unable to attack, and the black heads rushed over at the gate and could not cross a step. The only two stairs he brought were broken into four pieces. The arrows were like rain, but they were still useless.
Suddenly, an army of hundreds of people appeared behind them, each with cold eyes, as if hundreds of evil wolves were slowly approaching them. It should be said that they were not an army, without armor, wearing black clothes, covered with blood, and there was nothing on them except a cold and sharp knife in their hands.
Li Longji's two thousand troops felt an invisible pressure at the same time, and fear filled their hearts. Although the number of other people was much smaller than that of them, their feet still kept retreating.
Liu Si waved his hand coldly, and the hundreds of people even let out a low roar at the same time, like the low sound of a wild beast approaching. They activated. Five hundred people were like five hundred hungry wolves, with the grim smile of death flashing in their eyes, and rushed towards the crowd like a storm. The screams suddenly rang through the sky, "Crack! Crack!" The sound of bones being chopped up, and blood and flesh flying everywhere, and the black heads disappeared under the slash of the knife, and hundreds of people were killed instantly. All of them were scared to death. Faced with the invincible fierce attack of the men in black, their only reaction was to escape to the side, but they had no way out. They were in a dead end.
Everyone was piled in a corner in despair, crowded with you and me, like a bunch of ants crossing the river, crying, begging, and howling to no avail. The difference between them was only early and late. In just a quarter of an hour, two thousand people were killed, and none survived.
The soldiers on the city tower were all shocked. They were all farmers who had just washed their feet and went to the fields. They had never seen such a tragic phenomenon. As the strong bloody smell rushed over, they began to scramble to spit. But the only thing that was thankful was that the murderous demons from hell seemed to have no siege weapons, and they didn't even have ropes.
But then a more terrifying scene shattered the last bit of luck they had. They actually stacked the bodies one by one against the city tower and built them into a five-meter-high mountain of corpses. The soldiers who woke up from the city tower threw down their weapons, turned around and fled.
"When you enter the palace, as long as you are a man, no matter how old or young, you will not leave any one!" Liu Si's eyes were cold and he issued the final order of massacre.
"Kill!" Five hundred murderous devils roared, and they rushed up the mountain of corpse and jumped up to the city tower like a surging iron stream. They rushed to the mountain of corpse and jumped up to the city tower. They rushed forward, shattered everything, and rushed forward.

When King Yong Li Lin stumbled and rushed over, the entire Daming Palace had already returned to peace, and his fierce subordinates had already disappeared without a trace, leaving Chongxuan Gate, without knowing where to go.
The Yulin Army, who had just rushed back from the Yeting Palace, was sorting out the broken and messy palace, and corpses, soldiers, guards, eunuchs, and even the thicker palace maids were killed.
The Zichen Hall covered two corpses with white silk, one of which was ambitious and died with an eye to revenge, and the other was the crown prince Li Shi.
Even Li Fei Yuanli, who had always been murderous, couldn't help but sigh secretly. He only truly understood the cruelty of the power struggle today.
"General, Li Lin is brought!" Several soldiers walked towards Li Lin, pushing him to the ground, and Li Lin immediately collapsed to the ground.
"Your Highness Yong, the emperor is dead, you are satisfied now!"
Li Fei Yuanli stared at Li Lin coldly and gritted her teeth and said, "You are raising a private army. First, you washed the Ten Kings' Houses, and now you are tyrannical. How should you explain to the people of the world!"
Li Lin's spirit was almost collapsed. Liu Si had just sworn to obey his command and promised to capture Li Yu by his side. But as soon as he started, they returned to their original appearance of killing. He could not keep up with their speed. Now that everyone has run away, he asked him to clean up the bad debt.
"General Li Fei, this is definitely not the original intention of the Gu Wang. The Gu Wang Wang wanted them to enter the palace to protect the emperor, and they had no intention of killing the king!" Li Lin's voice became lower and lower. Facing the two cold corpses, he could no longer justify himself.
"You told me that it's useless, go and explain to the Prime Minister!"
Li Fei Yuanli waved his hand and said, "Take me down and be in custody!"
Li Lin was dragged away by the soldiers. Li Fei Yuanli slowly walked to the gate of the hall and stared at the eastern sky. The dark night had become thinner, and a little blue color appeared slightly in the sky. It was time for the general to come back.
At this moment, Li Qing was still waiting on the hill. He had been waiting here for three hours, but there was still no impatience on his face. He knew that as long as Li Lin's ambition to ascend the throne, his deployment would never be wrong.
"General, here we come!" A personal guard pointed at the hills from a distance, and saw hundreds of black shadows running towards this side. After a moment, the leader of the leader went up to the hills. In the faint light, he saw that he was tall and full of thorns. It was Liu Si, the leader of the group of murderous demon kings. He took two steps and knelt down to Li Qing and bowed: "Report to the general, Li Fei Shouyu has completed the task, so I will give orders to the general!"
"How are the casualties of brothers?"
Li Fei Shouyu immediately responded loudly: "If you say the general, no brothers will be injured or killed!"
Li Qing walked up to help him up, smiled and said, "What about Liu Wu?"
"General, I'm here!" Liu Wu turned over and tried hard to tear off the Hu Tsui who was pressed on his face, revealing a young and capable face. It was Zhao Qilang, the beggar apprentice who Li Fei Shouyu accepted back then. He also knelt down on one knee and bowed to Li Qing and said, "Doulu Army Scout Zhao Qilang, pays homage to the general!"
Li Qing quickly helped Zhao Qilang up, patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "You are wronged these days!"
At this time, Li Fei Shouyu stepped forward and whispered: "I want to return to the Western Regions overnight. If they recognize me, it may be detrimental to the general."
Li Qing pondered for a moment, nodded gently and said to him: "Wu Xingsu alone is probably too busy in Shiguo. I have appointed him as the governor of Suo Ye. From now on, you are the governor of Dayuan and are under my direct jurisdiction. The defense of Xiao Bolu will be handed over to Qilang."
"I obey the order!" Li Fei Shouyu hurriedly glared at Zhao Qilang and ordered him to come forward and listen to the seal.
Li Qing smiled slightly, then turned to Zhao Qilang and said, "I appointed you as the Suiyuan Army's envoy, you can't let me down."
Zhao Qilang immediately put away his hanging expression and replied solemnly: "With me, Zhao Sheng, one day, I will never let the Tubo army cross the border."
"Okay! Then you guys will return to the Western Regions overnight!"
Li Qing quickly walked down the hill and came to the front of five hundred men in black. The five hundred men in black knelt down and saluted almost at the same time, "See General!"
Li Qing jumped on a big rock and straightened his waist and said to them loudly: "You did a great job! You are worthy of being the elite of my Doulu Army. I will reward you heavily, but now I order you to set off immediately, return to the Western Regions, and expand your territory for my Tang Dynasty. When the day when my Tang Dynasty dragon flag was planted into Damascus City, each of you will become the famous general of the Western Expedition."
Five hundred men in black looked excited and responded: "Abide by the order!"
Under the leadership of Li Fei Shouyu, they stepped forward and saluted Li Qing one by one to say goodbye. Li Qing's expression was serious and his eyes were filled with hope. He stood there motionless, bowing to the west, watching Li Fei Shouyu lead five hundred men in black quickly towards the west, gradually disappearing into the night before dawn.
Li Qing sent Li Fei Shouyu away. He immediately turned over and pointed at Chang'an with a whip. He turned around and laughed loudly at his personal guards: "The turmoil has ended. Now it's time for us to clean up the mess and set off!"
