"In the past, His Majesty the First Emperor had ordered that Young Master Fei was not allowed to leave Yong City without permission. Did Ruler forget?"
The moment Zhao Gao said this, everyone fell silent. No one dared to refute him. This was the supreme might that he had accumulated in the State of Qin as the Prefect of Zhongche. He was below one person and above ten thousand people.
Unfortunately, Ying Ze Jiu didn't pay any attention to him. He just quietly looked out of the hall, his eyes shining with a bright light. He looked very dignified.
No one saw that at this moment, Zhao Gao secretly made a hand gesture to his son-in-law Yan Le with his hands behind his back. His heart was filled with killing intent.
Judging from today's performance, if Ying Zejiu did not die, Great Qin would not be able to live in peace, so he decided to kill him.
...........
Outside Xianyang Palace, in front of the ancient and solemn palace city, rows of solemn soldiers in black armor were waiting.
"Kill them!"
The time had come. Wei Qing pulled out the sword at his waist and pointed it at the palace gate. Behind him, countless Yong City Guards brandished their weapons and charged towards the main hall.
"Xiu! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Before the Imperial Guards could react, the Yong City Guards who had rushed into the palace took out their Qin crossbows and fired them continuously.
"Not good! Someone is rebelling, quickly defend!"
Yan Le, who had just arrived at the palace gate, saw the sky filled with arrows and the air was filled with the thick smell of blood. His expression changed drastically.
Just as he was about to order the Imperial Guards to defend and counterattack, it was too late.
"Xiu! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Great Qin's crossbow formation dominated the world, and its Iron Eagle soldiers were the strongest in the world. The palace guards held their Qin crossbows and coldly looked at the Imperial Guards in front of them. They continuously attacked the enemy with the Triple Strike Technique.
As Great Qin's final line of defense, the Imperial Guards defending the Palace City were only equipped with simple offensive weapons and did not carry shields. They had never thought that an enemy would be able to break into Great Qin's Palace City.
Moreover, at such a close distance, the might of the Qin crossbow was unleashed to the extreme. Even a shield might not be able to stop the enemy.
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, the triangular crossbows tore through the air and pierced through the bodies of the Imperial Guards.
They didn't even have time to scream. Blood spurted out and their corpses fell straight onto the cold ground of Xianyang Palace.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Countless palace guards waved the spears in their hands. It was a simple action, but it looked so bloody.
The spears forged by Yong City were all refined from refined steel using the Steel Stirring Technique. They were incomparably sharp, and each thrust would pierce through countless bodies of flesh and blood. Other than the faces of the Imperial Guards being covered in blood, they did not move at all.
As the most elite army in the history of the Western Han Dynasty, under Wei Qing's training, the palace guards were simply a group of expressionless killing machines. Their every move carried a silent tacit understanding, completely displaying the horror of the cold weapon era.
Whenever the imperial guards wanted to counterattack, they would be met with thousands of cold spears. The cold light was dazzling, making people feel extremely hopeless.
In Xianyang Palace, blood and corpses covered the entire palace road. The palace guards stepped on the corpses of their enemies and kept approaching the meeting hall.
"General, the Feather Forest Cavalry is in position!”
Behind Wei Qing, 5,000 Feather Forest Light Cavalry were ready to set off. They wore ghostly faces and black armor, and were silent. Under this bright day, it was a chilling sight.
"Pass down the order. The Imperial Cavalry will charge from the front and defeat the Imperial Guards in one fell swoop!”
When the battle in the palace city entered its final stage, Wei Qing waved his hand and gave the final order.
"Yes!"
The 5,000 cavalry were like ferocious tigers that had come out of their cages. They formed a triangular assault formation and blocked all the exits of the imperial guards.
"Not good! Cavalry!"
Yan Le, who was commanding the counterattack, looked over and was instantly dumbfounded. A large group of ghost-faced black-armored cavalrymen had appeared out of nowhere and were rapidly approaching them.
Ever since the Warring States Period, after the chariot troops were eliminated by the cavalry, the cavalry had become the king of the battlefield. The reason why Qin could quickly unify the six countries was because it occupied Longxi and the northern region. There were many grasslands and a large number of good horses were cultivated. From there, countless cavalry were trained to roam the Central Plains.
In such a narrow place like the palace city, with the enemy infantry suppressing their flanks, if the cavalry charged over, they wouldn't even have the strength to retaliate.
"Retreat! Retreat to the main hall! Hurry!" Yan Le shouted, his eyes were bloodshot and his face was ferocious.
If the imperial guards were all annihilated here today, then their Zhao clan would be reduced to a toothless tiger and would be torn apart by countless old Qin people.
"Dong! Thump! Dong!"
The five thousand cavalry of the imperial guards charged towards the imperial guards on the square in Xianyang Palace. Their might shook the heavens.
The entire ground seemed to be shaking, and the sound of hooves sounded like thunder, making people feel annoyed.
"Kill them!"
Relying on the cavalry's powerful momentum, Huo Qubing held his spear with one arm and thrust it forward, piercing through the body of the frontmost Imperial Guard soldier.
"Bang!"
The Imperial Guards soldier was like a kite that had left its string, and was sent flying by Huo Qubing. He landed on the ground and turned into a pile of meat paste, fresh blood flowing out.
