The sky totally turned dark. The autumn rain was still falling and the sky was covered in dark clouds. It was like a piece of ink that squeezed out endless amounts of black water.
Troops of soldiers took firm steps in the cold wind and rain. They continued to walk forward, the weapons in their hands shining brightly. Their blades and spears were pulled out of their sheaths and they were filled with killing intent that shocked the heavens and earth.
A full 600,000 troops were mobilized by Hong Yi to surround Jade Capital City!
There were 100,000 troops from the Mighty God King, 100,000 from the Young General, 200,000 from the Champion Marquis, 100,000 from the God Wind Country, and 100,000 from the Yuan Tu Country. They were all elites and had been through hundreds of battles. Their weapons and equipment were really good and they didn't lack grain.
With the scale of Jade Capital City, even if a million troops surrounded it, they wouldn't be able to take it down. As for the millions of soldiers outside the city, the amount of rations consumed every day had to be calculated in "mountains".
Only a mountain of rice and a mountain of noodles could sustain the consumption of a million soldiers.
25 years ago, when Yun Meng's army attacked Jade Capital City, they suffered from a lack of grain and after defending for 10 days to half a month, they retreated.
This was why Jade Capital City wasn't afraid of being surrounded at all.
The city walls were simply too thick and tall. Even a level 6 Lightning Tribulation expert would be incapable of breaking through or penetrating them. The number one city in the Vast Thousand Domains, the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Capital, was extraordinary.
However, now that Hong Yi mobilized 600,000 troops, he didn't have any grain at all. The Temple of All Saints was a magical artifact that contained endless time, space, and layers of worlds of different sizes.
Now that the Taiji Lightning Pond was completed, large amounts of Dragontooth Rice were produced every day. One grain of Dragontooth Rice was cooked and it was enough for 10 soldiers to eat. Moreover, there was no excretion. It nourished the body and strengthened the bones and muscles.
All sorts of clothes, armor, and tents appeared in the All Saint Hall.
Hong Yi's strength was already established. The resources from overseas, the Young General, and the Champion Marquis were enough to support the consumption of 600,000 troops. Not to mention 600,000, even 6 million was a piece of cake.
The 600,000-strong army marched in an orderly manner in the dark rain. Although none of the soldiers made a sound, their footsteps were like the beating of drums, shaking the entire ground and even the Jade Capital City in the distance.
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!
When the 600,000 strong army gathered neatly and moved towards Jade Capital City, almost everyone within a hundred miles knew about it! Chaos ensued!
There were a large number of people living in the surrounding hundred miles of Jade Capital. The army marched on the road, and there was a sea of people, covering the sky and covering the earth. The atmosphere was majestic, and how could it not be known by others?
The army led by Hong Yi was simply too mighty. Every step they took was simply earth-shattering. Even the dark clouds in the sky and the autumn rain were shaken away.
In Jade Capital.
Marquis Wu Wen's residence.
Madam Zhao was holding a white kitten as she sat on a large wooden armchair. Below her sat Madam Rong and a few other concubines. It was obvious that they had just finished dinner and Madam Zhao was lecturing them.
Over the past few days, Madam Zhao's martial arts and Dao techniques had improved tremendously. She had already cultivated to an extremely high level, hiding her abilities well. In addition to the fact that she held great power in her hands, her temperament was a hundred times sharper than before. Today, she was especially excited. Today, the imperial court had issued a decree to confiscate Prince Yu's possessions.
Prince Yu was an important chess piece for Hong Yi. Everyone knew this. Now that the imperial court had issued a decree to capture Prince Yu, confiscate his possessions, and throw him into prison, Hong Yi would no longer use the imperial court to cause trouble. The Hong Residence's position would be stable and prosperous forever. Madam Zhao was naturally delighted.
"This time, let's see how that little bastard Hong Yi is going to fight with us! The imperial court is still the imperial court, the imperial court! How can a mere scholar, a fake saint, shake it! "Madam Zhao slowly touched the white kitten in her hands and said.
"Hehehe, hehehe …" Madam Rong, who was at the side, also laughed and said, "Yes, Sister Zhao has completely gotten rid of this worry. However, I heard that Prince Yu hasn't been caught yet. Did he run to the Pavilion of Book Changes?"
"Yes, even if he ran to the Pavilion of Book Changes, he is still struggling at death's door. After losing his righteous status, he no longer has any hope of inheriting the imperial court. I only need to make a small move, and the imperial court will remove his name! I can even make the emperor issue a decree for him to change his surname! If his surname is no longer Yang, what else can he do? "Madam Zhao laughed coldly and said," As for the Zhouyi Academy, the imperial court will definitely destroy it! What was the Daizen Temple like back then? A thousand-year-old holy land! Compared to the Zhouyi Academy, which is like a nouveau riche, they are so much more powerful. Didn't the emperor still destroy them just like that? "
"Yes! After we capture that little thief, Hong Yi, we will hack him into pieces at the entrance of the market and make him ride a wooden donkey! "Madam Rong said fiercely.
"That would be too good for him." Madam Zhao said coldly, "I still want to keep him alive, but I will let him enter the palace as a eunuch! I want Meng Bingyun to see that her son has become a eunuch! "
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong …
Just as they were speaking, the ground suddenly shook, as if thousands of soldiers and horses were charging in front of them. The strong aura in the air was even more intense than thunder. Even experts with six tribulations did not dare to leave their bodies.
"What's going on? Is it an earthquake? "Madam Rong was so shocked that she almost fell off her chair.
"Not good! Not good! Madam! " At this moment, ten horses galloped in from the door, and a few Great Grandmasters fell off. They were actually crawling and rolling, and then they shouted at the top of their lungs, as if they were using all their strength to shout. Their screams were like sharp swords piercing through the sky.
"Prince Yu is rebelling! He has led the army to surround Yujing City! "
"Rebellion! Someone is rebelling! "
"Thousands of soldiers and horses are surrounding the city!"
"They are here!"
…
"Thud!" The white cat in Madam Zhao's hand fell to the ground. She could feel the thousands of soldiers and horses in the air, the surging aura, and the strength of the Great Grandmasters shouting at the top of their lungs. She could not help but be stunned!
"Rebellion? How is that possible? Where did the soldiers and horses come from? Where did the soldiers and horses come from? Prince Yu does not have any military power! Quick, quick, quick, inform Marquis! "Madam Zhao screamed, and her aura was like a female wolf biting an antelope.
"Marquis has already received the news, and is now leading his troops to the city walls!"
"They came so quickly … They are rebelling, directly rebelling, they are too arrogant! Hong Yi, you little bastard, you are too arrogant! You are challenging the authority of the Emperor, you are going against the world! "Madam Zhao said fiercely," This time, it is time for you to die without a burial place! "
There was no need for anyone to spread the news. Just a few Martial Grandmasters screamed at the top of their lungs. Instantly, the words' Prince Yu ',' rebellion ', and' army besieging the city 'spread to every corner of the Jade Capital. There were even some hidden spaces.
From the high officials and nobles to the common people, everyone knew that something big had happened.
Everyone expected that there would be a big movement in these few days, but they did not expect it to come so quickly! The army surrounding the city was like a celestial soldier that descended from the sky, and surrounded Yujing City without a trace.
However, thanks to the capture of Prince Yu today, the streets and alleys of Yujing City were filled with soldiers, and the news of the rebellion did not cause a commotion.
There was no commotion in the city, but there was a commotion in the palace.
In the Cabinet Hall, countless eunuchs were running around, and the imperial guards were running in groups, setting up defenses. It was a scene of anxiety. In the palace, there were bright torches everywhere. The cabinet officials and the officials of the six ministries were all huddled together, like ducks that were startled by lightning.
The civil and military officials were all crowded in the inner hall, and the noise of the crowd was loud and clear.
At the same time, many princes, dukes, and marquises were sitting in palanquins with martial arts experts and guards. They gathered outside the imperial palace without any regard for their lives. They wanted to enter the imperial palace to take refuge, as if the imperial palace was their only refuge. However, they were blocked by groups of imperial guards outside the walls of the imperial palace.
In an instant, the streets outside the palace walls were filled with sedan chairs of the royal family. Cries, shouts, quarrels, and insults filled the air, as though the end of the world had come.
"Yan Youzhi, has the army really arrived outside Yujing City?" In the Cabinet Hall, cabinet official Fang Yizhi angrily rebuked Yan Youzhi, "Didn't you say that there were no soldiers within a thousand mile radius of Yujing City? How did they arrive so quickly? Could it be that the soldiers have wings? Even if they had wings, they wouldn't be so fast! "
"Let's go! Let's go to the city walls and scold Prince Yu. He actually led the army to rebel, and this is a crime of treason! "A cabinet official said," Isn't he afraid that history will be written like iron? That he will be cursed for eternity? "
"Yujing City is tall, and it's not that easy to attack. One of you stay behind to ensure the safety of the palace, and we will go to the city walls to assist the Grand Preceptor, "Yan Youzhi said.
"Where's the Emperor? Let's report to the Emperor to discuss important matters! "A cabinet official said.
"The Emperor is already in the Grand Council, arranging the military, and passing down an edict for us to pacify the people. Now we just need to persuade the nobles outside the palace to go back, and not cause trouble at this time. "
"Finally, the army has arrived …"
Hong Yi sat in a large sedan chair, which was made of white reeds. It was incomparably wide, and there was a Qilin umbrella on it. This was the sedan chair of a saint, and the white reeds represented the purity of a gentleman, the vast whiteness.
A Qilin with four hooves stepped on the clouds, guarding the sedan chair. It added to the power of a saint, and it represented the auspiciousness of the righteous path, and the awe-inspiring righteousness!
"Stop!"
Seeing that the army was already within ten miles of Yujing City, tents rose from the ground, and all sorts of siege vehicles and weapons appeared. The army was like ants, densely packed, and there was no end to it.
At this moment, Hong Yi also saw the tall city walls of Yujing City, and it was covered in flames. The rain couldn't extinguish it at all, and there were countless bright lights. He didn't know what it was, but it lit up the surrounding hundred miles, and it was extremely clear!
The city walls of Yujing City were filled with Thunder Fire Iron Cannons, and there were countless soldiers and experts.
There were also many flags rising up, representing the supreme imperial authority that couldn't be blasphemed.
Hong Yi saw the main gate, and on the gate tower of Qian Yang Gate stood Hong Xuanji with his hands behind his back, and his body was ramrod straight, as though he was the only pillar supporting the sky.
At the same time, Hong Xuanji also saw Hong Yi, and when the father and son's eyes met, there were sparks in the air!
"Hong Yi! You dare to rebel! You led the army to besiege Yujing City! Aren't you afraid that history will be written in stone! An unfilial son like you disobeyed your father and usurped the imperial authority! How dare you call yourself a saint! "
Hong Xuanji's voice reverberated across the land like a clap of thunder.
"The ruler of the Nation of Godly Wind, the ruler of the Nation of Yuan Tu! The ruler of the hundred nations! The ruler of the Chara! Come out! "Hong Yi didn't answer Hong Xuanji's question, but instead, he spoke slowly.
Then, under everyone's shocked gazes, the Monarchs of many countries all came to the front of the two armies!
"Today is not a rebellion, but a cleansing of the emperor's side! At the same time, it is a golden time for my Da Qian Continent to unify the world! As long as we get rid of the treacherous officials around the emperor, the hundred nations, the Nation of Godly Wind, Yuan Tu, and Huo Luo will bow down to my Da Qian Continent and become a continent of my Da Qian Continent! The citizens of Tianzhou will truly unify the world! "
Hong Yi's words were even louder than Hong Xuanji's!
"Everyone, I, Hong Yi, will leave my name in the annals of history!"
