Chapter 802 Coupling
At this time, Li Gu had already led more than a dozen subordinates to directly break out of the house where Han Xuanchang was. The imperial crossbow soldiers on the roof had been removed, but the imperial guards guarding outside the house were difficult to solve for a while.
However, Han Xuanchang felt that the imperial guards on the roof were removed, and the crisis suddenly subsided, so he took advantage of the situation to rush out of the door.
As soon as he left the room, two imperial guards were slashing at him. The two swords were one left and one right, and the speed was extremely fast. Han Xuanchang did not dare to take it forward. He quickly retreated and retreated back into the house, but kicked him at a door. He was a direct descendant of the Han family, and naturally he had also practiced the "Sutra of Eternal Life". His power was terrifying and his power was heavy. When he kicked out, the door was kicked away with a "click" sound, and it hit a royal guard.
Han Xuanchang had never taken action easily, but this time he took action, he was not ruthless. The wooden door hit the Imperial Guard, and the Imperial Guards were hit by the wooden door and took several steps back. Han Xuanchang took advantage of this time and suddenly rushed out, seeing the dark officials fighting with the Imperial Guards outside the door.
"Protect Lord Han!" Li Gu saw Han Xuanchang rushing out and immediately shouted in a low voice, and he quickly moved towards Han Xuanchang.
Han Xuanchang chased the imperial guards who were shot out. Before he could stand firm, he flew up again and kicked the imperial guards in the jaw. He heard the sound of bones shattering. Han Xuanchang took the opportunity to snatch the sword from the imperial guards. Seeing that Li Gu was responding to him, he waved the sword and leaned towards Li Gu.
Han Xuanchang is usually gentle and gentle, but today he is fierce in his actions and no longer has the scholarly spirit.
Li Gu led his subordinates to kill him and joined Han Xuanchang. The two of them looked at each other with one glance. Han Xuanchang went to the left and Li Gu led the seven or eight dark officials under his command to follow him.
The battles and killings in the house have been divided into small battle groups, and the men on both sides are mixed together.
Liu Yao was covered in blood and mist at this time, and his body had been cut several times. Fortunately, he was not bad at abilities and avoided the deadly hidden weapon several times, otherwise he would have died here.
There were corpses everywhere in the yard, including imperial guards and dark officials. The air in this house was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Liu Yao killed a dark official and gathered several imperial guards around him, all covered in blood. He held the sword tightly and said in a low voice: "Reinforcements will arrive soon. You will fight to the death. Never let these officials escape..." His eyes were cold: "Even if it was just a corpse, let them stay!"
Everyone understood Liu Yao's words, that was a way to kill cabinet officials.
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly on the east side: "Come here, they are going to break out from here!"
When Liu Yao heard the direction of the voice, he immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone goes to the side door. They want to break through the side door. They must not let them leave this yard!"
...
Although the officials from all groups of Xihua Hall paid a heavy price and lost one-third of their staff, they finally rescued the cabinet officials who were under house arrest from the house. At this moment, they followed the route of retreat, guarding the officials to break through to the side door, and Liu Yao also shouted loudly to order his subordinates to surround the side door to kill.
The casualties of the Imperial Guards far exceeded those of the Dark Officers, and they had no advantage in terms of numbers at this time, but the Dark Officers' goal at this time was to rescue the cabinet officials from here and not to get entangled with the Imperial Guards.
Li Gu knew very well that although the time it took to break through to the side gate from the beginning of the operation until now was extremely short, the imperial guards of Fengxiang Camp outside had probably noticed the abnormal movement here. Nearly 5,000 imperial guards were controlled by the entire Dongcheng. Once the news was received, a large number of elite soldiers would come over. Although the dark officials had strong and terrifying strength in the night, there were only more than one hundred people now, and they still had to protect cabinet officials and carry out a breakthrough battle. That would be a great danger.
What the Dark Officers are best at is the method of raiding and assassination that catch the enemy off guard. Once they engage in a frontal and open fight, their abilities will be greatly reduced. As long as they are surrounded by the Imperial Guard, they will face the danger of being wiped out.
At this time, there were nearly fifty people gathered around Li Gu, and other dark officials were also fighting here to gather.
At this time, Grandmaster Xiao had long lost his old look. The old man was holding a knife in his hand. All the cabinet officials were following him, while the dark officials were protecting him outside, forming a protective film.
At this time, everyone had already opened the side door and rushed out of the house. The dark officials everywhere in the house even fought back and gathered. The remaining imperial guards were roaring loudly at Liu Yao and chasing from behind.
The Imperial Guard, who was retreating along the snowy street to the west and south, was unable to escape the pursuit for a while, finally rushed to the middle of the street, and suddenly heard the sound of killing sounds coming from the front. Then, a large number of Fengxiang Camp Imperial Guards blocked the enemy, and there were also imperial guards in the alleys on both sides of the road. Everyone was surrounded and the situation was extremely serious.
Mr. Xiao’s white beard fluttered in the night wind. He turned around, looked at the cabinet officials behind him, and said in a deep voice: “Everyone, I am willing to live and die with you today, break out and quell the rebellion, and never be destroyed by these unknown soldiers!”
The cabinet officials held their weapons tightly, looked at each other, and then said in unison: "I would like to fight with the Grand Master!"
Master Xiao laughed. Although the old man was extremely old, his laughter was full of energy and power.
Although these cabinet officials were imprisoned here, they had been fully fed and drunk during the days they were imprisoned, and there was no physical problem at all.
Master Xiao immediately glanced at the dark officials who were like ghosts and said in a deep voice: "You are all warriors of the country. In today's battle, the name of the West Flower Hall will be recorded in the history of my Great Swallow. I am very relieved to be able to fight side by side with all the warriors."
At this time, the Imperial Guards surrounded him from all directions, and Li Gu said in a deep voice: "Attack south and open the bloody road!"
Han Mo had planned with him that once the officers in the West Flower Hall saw the signal, they would rescue the hostages as soon as possible, and then break through the encirclement south, and reinforcements would be arranged to respond.
However, these imperial guards came faster than expected, and the Dark Officers were extremely severely reduced.
However, after Li Gu gave the order, facing several times of the enemies who came from all directions, the dark officials rushed to the south without hesitation, and in a moment they fought each other.
At this time, the cabinet officials were fighting with the Imperial Guards, each brave and in a long street full of killing sounds.
While everyone was in a tough battle, screams suddenly came from behind the Imperial Guard, and someone heard loudly exclaiming: "There is an ambush!"
There was no enemy behind the long street, but countless sleeve arrows were shot out from the roofs on both sides of the long street. This round of attack came suddenly, and the Imperial Guards were fighting with the officials of the Xihua Hall, but they did not expect that there were still ambushing the enemy on the roofs on both sides.
The "swoosh" sleeve arrow pierced the air continuously. A large number of imperial guards were shot into the vital points by the sleeve arrows and fell down. The imperial guards suddenly had a brief chaos.
Old Master Xiao had killed several people in a row, his body was covered in blood, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Great opportunity, everyone will concentrate on going to Nantu!"
Everyone behind him agreed and followed closely.
These officials in the cabinet usually fight to the death in the court, but due to the current situation, they are united and want to fight out together.
The sleeve arrows on the roofs on both sides were endless, obviously to provide assistance to the people in the West Flower Hall. The sleeve arrows shot straight to the Imperial Guards on the South Road, but in just a moment, dozens of people were killed by arrows.
"There is an ambush on the roof!" Someone in the Imperial Guard roared: "The roof snipers the enemy!"
For a moment, many imperial soldiers rushed to both sides and quickly climbed up the roof to deal with the sneak attack on the roof.
The two sides soon started fighting on the roof. The ones who were ambushed on the roof were all black-clothed, but their kung fu skills were extremely strange, almost the same as those of the officials of the Xihua Hall.
Dali Temple Minister Hu Xuexin repelled an imperial guard. Seeing that the roofs on both sides were also fighting, he quickly understood and shouted, "It's the person from Donghua Hall!"
With powerful dark means, there are only two major flower halls in Yanjing City.
All the staff of the Xihua Hall were devoted to the raid of the house, and it was impossible to have the energy to set up an ambush here. Then the attackers who were ambushing on the roof were obviously from the Donghua Hall.
On this night, those almost impossible things happened one after another.
The political enemies who live and die in the court abandoned their past grudges tonight, joined forces to kill the enemy together, and the two major flower halls that had always had a bad relationship were also staged a thrilling dark drama tonight.
The sudden attack of the East Flower Hall created opportunities for the cabinet officials and the West Flower Hall officials on Chang Street. A bloody battle, they opened a bloody road from the crowd and rushed to the streets of Chang Street.
However, the Imperial Guards are numerous here. Although their casualties are heavy, several reinforcements still have an absolute advantage in the number of people.
...
Just as the rooftops were fighting ruthlessly on the long street, a rumble sound suddenly sounded from the south. The sound was as powerful as thunder, and thousands of horses galloped, shaking the earth powerfully.
Cabinet officials' expressions changed drastically.
The Imperial Guards faced at this time are already difficult to deal with. If the enemy sends cavalry to intercept and kill, it will not only be possible to break through, but they will be wiped out.
Even those imperial guards thought that the cavalry reinforcements arrived and their morale was greatly boosted.
Soon, a team of cavalry rushed out of an alley in the south, and then a large number of cavalry came from other alleys. The armor of these cavalry was very strange, and they were all holding bows in their hands. When they appeared, they shot arrows at the Imperial Guard. When the war horses approached, they instantly hung bows and changed their swords, and ruthlessly slashed at the Imperial Guard.
