"Puchi!"

In the dark night, the sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh could be heard. A Jin soldier patrolling the city fell to the ground on the spot.

Before the other dozen or so Jin soldiers could react, several figures dashed out from the alley and quickly ended their lives.

The eight-foot-tall man with the spear shook off the blood on his spear and silently waved his hand. A dozen experienced figures took off the armor of the Jin army on the ground and put it on themselves.

Then, the dozen or so fake Jin Jun figures swaggered toward the south gate of the Daming Mansion.

Meanwhile, the spear-wielding man brought hundreds of other figures and hid in the darkness to catch up.

"Who is it?"

At the south gate, a centurion of the Jin army who was guarding the place shouted in a muffled voice when he saw someone coming from the city. At the same time, he raised hundreds of bows.

Bows and crossbows were the great killing weapons of this era. Within a few dozen steps, killing people was as easy as cutting grass!

"We are the personal troops of Marshal Zong Wang. Marshal Zong Wang is worried about the Song army attacking at night, so he asked us to strengthen our patrol!”

A man imitated the accent of the golden man and answered from dozens of steps away.

They were all wearing the armor of the Jin army, and it was difficult to see their faces in the night, so the centurion did not suspect anything. He ordered them to put down their bows and patted his chest with a smile."Please let General Zong Wang rest assured. This general is the most cautious and will not give the Song army a chance to attack at night!”

Just as the centurion finished speaking, the man who had already approached suddenly grinned."Cautious? Be careful your mother!"

In the blink of an eye, the man had already pulled out his saber and stabbed it into the centurion's stomach with lightning speed!

They had pretended to be the Jin soldiers just to avoid the long-range shots of the Jin soldiers guarding the gate. Now that they were close, there was no need to hide anymore!

"You…are from the Song Dynasty!"

The centurion's eyes widened in shock and anger. He had never expected that the man in the golden military uniform would be from the Song Dynasty!

Without giving him any more chances, the man twisted the knife in the centurion's stomach and kicked him down, instantly killing him.

At the same time, the dozen men behind him were like hungry tigers pouncing on sheep. They suddenly attacked the Jin army in front of them.

Caught off guard, more than ten Jin soldiers were cut down.

"There's a spy!"

The remaining 70 - 80 Jin soldiers at the city gate also reacted at this time. They were shocked and angry. They immediately shouted a warning and charged at the men who were pretending to be Jin soldiers.

"Kill them!"

The spear-wielding man and hundreds of figures in the shadows shouted and rushed out.

Like a tiger among a flock of sheep, he swung his spear up and down, killing a dozen Jin soldiers in the blink of an eye.

The rest of the Jin soldiers were also killed by the other men.

"Creak!"

After quickly dealing with the 100-man Jin army guarding the gate, the spear-wielding burly man and the others opened the south gate of the Daming Manor. They lowered the suspension bridge and waved their torches at the Song Camp at the gate.

At this moment, the warning of the Jin soldiers before their death also alerted the guards on the city wall. The city wall of the Daming Mansion was instantly in a commotion, and the Jin soldiers quickly rushed over to support them.

"Before the royal army arrives, we must guard the city gates even if we have to die!”

The spear-wielding man gave the order loudly while praying in his heart."I hope that the commotion here will attract the attention of His Majesty and the royal army and allow them to enter the city in time!”

Outside the city, Zhao Kai, who had been waiting for a long time, smiled faintly when he saw the movement at the city gate."Red Flame Army, break the city!"

"Yes, sir!"

The 3,000 Red Flame Troop responded in unison and rushed out like a whirlwind. They had been waiting on their horses for a long time under Zhao Kai's orders!

"His Majesty already knew that there would be someone in the city to receive him!”

At this moment, the doubts that Zhong Shidao, Zong Ze, and Zhang Shuye had been holding back for a long time were finally resolved.

They finally understood why Zhao Kai said that they could break through the city tonight without having to forcefully attack the city!

The scene that had just happened explained everything!

"Your Majesty, I don't understand. Our army had just arrived at the Daming Mansion and didn't have the chance to communicate with the city. How did Your Majesty know that someone would sneak attack the city gate and welcome our army into the city?”

After solving one of their doubts, Zhong Shidao and the others had another one.

They had been following Zhao Kai from the beginning to the end and did not see any spies passing on the news.

Logically speaking, even if there were soldiers and civilians of the Great Song in the city who wanted to welcome the royal army, they should at least find an opportunity to arrange a time.

Otherwise, if they did not know each other's actions and rashly attacked the city gate, the soldiers and civilians who were trying to seize the gate might not be able to wait for the king's army in time and would be extinguished by the Jin army.

Moreover, if Zhong Shidao and the others saw the city gate open without knowing anything, they would inevitably suspect that the Jin army was up to something and would hesitate.

Zhao Kai naturally knew what Zhong Shidao and the others were thinking. He smiled and asked,"I killed the fatuous ruler Zhao Kai and seized the throne, but after you received my edict, you still rushed to see me. Why?”

"Because we believe that Your Majesty is the wise ruler of the Great Song, the savior of the people of the Great Song!

We will follow Your Majesty and die without regret!”

Zhong Shidao and Zong Ze answered without hesitation.

"Just like how you believe in me, I also believe in loyal officials like you!" Zhao Kai nodded.

Therefore, I believe that in the Daming Mansion and even in this world, there are more loyal people like you in the Great Song Dynasty, and they also believe in me, the Emperor!

This is enough!"

After Zhao Kai said that, Zhong Shidao and the others were all confused. They nodded heavily,"Your Majesty has the sun and moon in his heart, and he knows the signs by seeing the signs. He is indeed a wise ruler for thousands of years!”

At this moment, Zhong Shidao and the others felt even more respect for Zhao Kai!

Zhao Kai's expression did not change. He looked in the direction of the city gate. Although he could not see the faces of those figures clearly, he could see that there was a dense aura at the city gate.

That was the aura of loyalty and righteousness, which Zhong Shidao and the others had above their heads.

During the day, Zhao Kai looked at the Daming Manor and saw a corner of the city. There was a dense righteous aura floating in the air.

Therefore, he was so sure that these loyal people would not disappoint him.

While they were talking, the Red Flame Army had already rushed into the city gate under the support of those people. The shocking sounds of fighting and the panicked and angry roars of the Jin army could be heard in the Daming Mansion.

Zhao Kai mounted his horse and said with a burning gaze,""Follow me into the city and meet the righteous men of Great Song!”

In the next moment, nearly 100,000 troops charged into the Daming Manor.

The Daming Manor was restored!
