Chapter 521: Sacrifice
As night falls, the streets of the small town of Saga begin to become depressed. Most of the children who were playing in the streets, the shouting vendors, and the walking passers-by have left, and there is no such thing as a night market in Sagako, and most of the people stay at home after nightfall.
And although Himiko, who was beside Le Yuan, hesitated when he was about to come, he finally chose to continue chatting with Le Yuan. I don't know what kind of state Himiko is in at this time, but this is a good time to communicate with her.
"Himiko, it's almost night, and if you don't go home soon, you'll be eaten by ghosts at night!"
Le Yuan said and made a gesture of baring his teeth and claws, as if he was pretending to be a fierce and vicious ghost.
The empire was in chaos, just when Le Yuan led his troops to the south to conquer the southern alien peoples, in addition to the territory of the north suppressed by the Estes army and the eastern tranquility road, the area controlled by the Western Revolutionary Army formed three lines of defense that were broken all the way by a large army, and approached the imperial capital with insufficient troops.
But even so, there were still not many lords who sent troops to support. These lord reinforcements who were able to rush in were either weak or simply sent a few miscellaneous soldiers to pretend, which was of no use at all, and the emperor was in danger under the attack of the revolutionary army.
Even though the revolutionary army was about to attack the imperial capital, it was still unable to unite against the outside world. Not to mention the little emperor who has always been cowardly, when Le Yuan led the troops to the battle, and Estes wanted to protect the safety of the little emperor.
Minister Earnest had the idea of digging into the wall, and he didn't let go of any of the members of the hunters, and tried all kinds of coercion and temptation, just to make the hunters become his power.
During this period, something happened that made the hunter extremely angry, that is, the kidnapping of Porus's wife and daughter. As the only person with a family within the hunters, Porus became the best person to target among the hunters, and Minister Earnest took advantage of this to secretly kidnap his wife and daughter who came to visit Porus.
This incident has caused a big storm within the hunters, and even Black Hitomi and Dr. Fashion, who had no bad impression of Minister Earnest before, felt that Minister Earnest had gone too far this time.
Porus's wife and daughter were eventually released. But it was no one else who rescued them, but the people of the night sickle who had been "killed". Ever since Arikuen spread the news of their deaths throughout the imperial capital, Leonay and the others have also changed their faces and entered the underground work, and they have been eyeing him when Minister Earnest is acting.
However, wave after wave of unsettled waves, the hidden personnel of the revolutionary army also took action when their main force was moving, and when the revolutionary army was receiving successes, they frantically distributed propaganda leaflets in the streets and alleys of the imperial capital to make a propaganda offensive for them to attack the imperial capital.
Their actions led Minister Earnest to directly use the garrison forces of the imperial capital, and with the heart of preferring to kill the wrong ones, he arrested a large number of suspicious elements. For a while, the people's resentment in the imperial capital was boiling, and I was afraid that when the revolutionary army really came, the people would help rebel.
On the 27th day of Le Yuan's expedition, the lord, who was the last two lines of defense in the imperial capital, suddenly held high the banner of revolution and announced in a high-profile manner that he would abandon evil and follow good and throw himself into the arms of the revolutionary army. Not only did he give up resisting the invasion of the revolutionary army, but he also led the revolutionary army to attack the imperial capital.
It wasn't until the revolutionary army had reached the city wall of the imperial capital that the entire imperial capital was really shrouded in the shadow of war, with a full 300,000 revolutionary army. Although not every one of them can be called soldiers, it is no problem to take up arms and fight a good fight. However, there are less than 50,000 defenders in the imperial capital who can now fight. In addition, there are still many trouble-making members of the revolutionary army hidden in the imperial capital, and it is even more of a problem if you want to hold the imperial capital.
On the 30th day after Le Yuan's expedition, the little emperor also knew that he was about to start acting, and ordered Estes, who had been guarding him, to lead an elite team out of the city to kill the enemy. It is best to take this opportunity to kill the leader of the rebels and relieve the danger of the imperial capital.
Just as Estes was out of the city to kill the enemy, the night attack, which had not moved, once again showed his fangs. The remaining five members of the team attacked in order to take the head of the little emperor while Estes was away and end the long war.
Break into the palace by following the underground passages of the palace discovered by the spies. As soon as they came out of the secret passage, they were tightly blocked.
"This is the former Imperial General Najehetan, I didn't expect that you, who used to be an Imperial General, would come to assassinate the former monarch one day. Is that irony? ”
Lan who opened the wings of the Emperor Gu [Fallen Angel] and flew in the air looked at Na Jiexi below and smiled.
"Hunter? It seems that you still refuse to give up, the imperial capital has been surrounded by our people, this time the empire is in a catastrophe, so do you still have to resist to the end? ”
Najehitan said that she really doesn't want to die now, and the lineup on the opposite side is no worse than them. Lan, Black Hitomi, and Will, although there is no Dr. Fashion's fashion troop and Porus, a battlefield killer, exists, but it is really not easy to pass without a price to fight.
"Ah, how can such a fun thing not count us?" Suddenly, Leonay appeared on the battlefield like a god general, followed by Seleuc and Ciel.
The appearance of the three of them made the faces of the two sides of the confrontation change, and the faces of the night attack were ugly. Especially when Tazmi looked at Leonai who was blocking the way at this time, how could he not understand that the target "Le Yuan", who had always been suspicious, really made a move, turning Leonai and Hill, who were originally teammates, into the last obstacle to the success of their revolution.
"You are the people of the Night Scythe, although I knew that you would not die so easily, but why did you become the people of the Empire, your leader!?"
Najehitan recognized the true identities of the two men as she looked at the [Five-Vision Omnipotence] on Ciel's head and the Beast King on Leonay's waist.
"I'm sorry, but you don't want to just capture the Imperial Capital until the boss returns to the Imperial Capital. There is only one person who can overthrow the empire! ”
With a wave of his hand, the battle between the two sides inevitably began.
"Red pupils, leave us alone, we'll drag it here, you go and deal with the emperor and ministers."
Najehitan gave such an order even when facing the combination of hunters and night sickles, and the red pupils did not hesitate to run through the crowd towards the center of the palace.
"Sister, don't run!"
With the control of the black pupil [eight rooms]. The orangutan, Epman, a particularly dangerous species of the corpse puppet, blocked the path of Red Hitomi, and then two corpse dolls, a man and a woman, surrounded and attacked Red Hitomi.
"Red Hitomi, go!"
Susanoo slashed through Will with a hammer, and then tried to step forward to help Akaitomi open a path, but before he could act, he was blocked by a semi-corroded corpse doll, the super dangerous Destagru.
"Don't bother me with my sister, bastard!"
The black pupil stared at Susanoo with the appearance of looking at a dead man, and then with a wave of the [Eight Rooms] in his hand, except for the puppet Natara, who was protecting him, all the other seven corpse puppets joined the battle. For a while, the people who attacked at night were in danger, and they could die at any time in the middle of the attack between the two teams.
"Damn, how did things come to this. What exactly are you thinking? ”
Najehitan blocked the attack from Ciel and Seleuc, and complained in her heart about Le Yuan, who didn't show up.
"Chance!"
I saw that due to the cooperation of Sai Leu and Emperor Gu Xiaoke, there was a huge mistake in Najiexitan's letting go, and the empty door was opened too late to protect, and at this time, Hill, who stepped forward to attack, only needed half a second to stab the dagger in his hand into Najiexitan's heart.
"Smack-"
Le Yuan suddenly appeared between Najehitan and Ciel, and grabbed Ciel's arm with one hand to stop Ciel's attack.
"Stop it all!"
With Le Yuan's roar. Everyone was shouted by an irresistible energy in their voices, and they stopped moving. Then the hunters and the night sickles nodded at Le Yuan and jumped back one after another, confronting the night attackers again.
Although Le Yuan helped Na Jiexitan block this blow, Na Jiexitan still had an intractable depression in her heart, and how Le Yuan's face looked and felt that it was an eyesore.
"Isn't this the general who went on the expedition? How did I have time to come back. Could it be that the South has been pacified? ”
There was a hint of sarcasm in Najeshitan's voice.
"After reading this, decide your own position, Najeshitan!"
Le Yuan tossed a document in his hand to Najeshitan.
And when Najeshitan looked at it with half a doubt, the astonishment and anger on his face did not stop. A mouth opened and closed several times, and the only sound it made was a muffled grunt of unknown meaning.
"Them. How could they do that! Have we forgotten the original purpose of the revolution? ”
Najiexitan's face was a little distracted and a little discouraged, and at this time, Le Yuan raised his right hand and pointed at Najiexitan's forehead with lightning speed, and then the blue light on his finger flashed.
“BOSS。 You guy! ”
"Master, be careful!"
"Get your dirty hands away!"
Seeing Le Yuan's movements, several people who attacked at night scolded one after another. But Le Yuan was unmoved, and put down his hand after finishing his own business. At the same moment, Najehitan also opened her eyes, and compared with the anger and confusion just now, she was more determined now.
"Guys, let's retreat. That's it for today's action! As if she had changed, Najehitan ordered to the rest of the night raiders.
"What? BOSS: You don't get caught in the matter, do you? Lubbo looked at Najehetan, who seemed to be a different person, and asked aloud.
"I don't have a problem, but the revolutionary army has a big problem. I have decided to quit the revolutionary army, do any of you want to stay? Najehitan threw the papers in her hand in front of Lubbo and the others.
Lubbo and the others picked up the file and looked at it again and again, and then understood why Najehetan had made such a transformation.
I saw that the documents recorded one scandalous thing after another that the revolutionary army had done in order to overthrow the empire. kidnapping the lord's relatives and coercing them into betrayal; ordered troops to disguise themselves as robbers to attack the village, and then sent troops to encircle and suppress the people; He signed a traitorous contract with a foreign nation to lose his power and humiliate the country, and paid a large part of the foreign nation's land at the cost of jointly attacking the empire......
The revolutionary army did a variety of ridiculous things, each of which seemed to be aimed at overthrowing the empire, but it touched the bottom line of Najehitan. Can a revolutionary army composed of all such people really bring real peace to the people? Na Jiexitan asked her heart over and over again in her heart, and Le Yuan's finger was a blow to her in the face, making her really determined to give up the revolutionary army. (To be continued.) )
