The battle in the East Palace had reached the last moment, and the defense of the entire East Palace was broken. Zhang Jin led less than 2,000 soldiers to retreat to the East Palace, resisted to the end, and swear to the death.

King Zhao Ke of Hengshan and General Changsun Wuyang of Yulin Guard took the lead in charge, which greatly boosted the morale of the entire army. After the final general attack, he finally broke through the defense of the East Palace. Zhao Ke died on the spot in the charge, and Changsun Wuyang was lucky enough to survive, but his left eye was also in a fierce battle and was completely scrapped.

Changsun Wuyang has fallen into madness. No matter what the ending of tonight is, his life will end. Zhao He has mastered a secret. Once this secret breaks out, not only will he, Changsun Wuyang, die, but the entire family will also be implicated and disaster. Therefore, Changsun Wuyang has no choice but to sacrifice himself and preserve the entire family.

"Kill me, kill me, no one left, haha."

Changsun Wuyang's face was covered in blood and his ferocious face became extremely distorted due to the severe pain in his left eye. He waved the sword in his hand without any intention and laughed wildly. The soldiers obeyed the orders and continued to attack Zhang Jin and other last resistance forces, while launching a cruel massacre of the palace maids and eunuchs in the Eastern Palace.

At this critical moment, Li Xun led nearly 7,000 soldiers and finally arrived at the East Palace.

The situation is changing, and the plan of course also needs to change. Li Xun's initial plan was to attract some of the imperial guards as much as possible to reduce the defensive pressure of the Eastern Palace, and then hold on, waiting for the arrival of Li Zhong's subsequent reinforcements. However, now, the Eastern Palace has been broken, and the life and death of the Prince Zhao Xun is uncertain. At this time, according to the previous plan, it is undoubtedly to sit and watch Zhao Xun die.

"The East Palace was broken."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince may have been killed."

When the soldiers of the entire army saw that the Eastern Palace was destroyed, their morale was shattered, and the fierce desire to advance that had just gathered was rapidly dissipating.

Li Xun was also pale and in a state of chaos. If the prince was killed, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to his politics and life. And emotionally, the palace was in chaos, his aunt Li Yi was missing, and he did not know his life or death. If Zhao Xun died, his relatives in this world would be very few.

At the critical moment, his wrinkled mind was more stable and clear. He said to Li Xun in a deep voice: "General Li, the shouts of killing in the East Palace are clearly heard. The battle is not over yet, and His Royal Highness may still be alive."

Hearing this, Li Xun quickly stabilized his mind and looked up. As expected, although the wall of the East Palace had been broken and occupied by Zhao He's rebels, the shouts of killing were still loud, which showed that the Eastern Palace defenders had not been destroyed and were still fighting desperately.

Thinking of this, Li Xun was energetic and shouted: "Brothers, have you ever heard the fighting in the Eastern Palace? The battle is not over yet? This is the signal sent to us by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"kill."

Li Xun shouted to kill and issued an order to attack.

Li Xun led the charge, led 7,000 soldiers, and immediately launched a fierce attack on Zhao He's rebels from behind.

Li Xun said this to inspire the confidence of the soldiers in the army. However, it was so accidental. The reason why the shouts in the East Palace were so loud was indeed because someone deliberately made it. This person was named Wang Chengzong, who was a captain.

Because of Ip Sulan's case, on the way back to Fengjing, Wang Chengzong once led his wife Ip Sulan to meet Li Xun, and the two met several times once.

Although Wang Chengzong was a Han Chinese, he had been completely alienated under the rule of the Dashi Empire for hundreds of years. The whole clan believed in Tianlan. During Li Xun's rule in western Longyou, due to the early running-in and other factors, a major riot broke out in Tianlan. Finally, Li Xun used iron fist to suppress bloodyly. During this war, more than 20 fathers, brothers, sisters, and relatives of Wang Chengzong were killed, but his wife Ipsulan was saved by Li Xun. The two had great hatred and great kindness. In addition, after Wang Chengzong joined the army, Li Xun did not treat him specially, and rewarded him fairly. After suppressing the Tianlan riot, the many promises he made were fulfilled one by one in the next two years. Wang Chengzong's mood began to become very complicated. He did not know whether to be grateful or continue to hate Li Xun.

Zhang Jin rushed to Wang Chengzong and shouted loudly: "Are you crazy? If you have the strength to yell here, it's better to leave this strength to the enemy."

Faced with the siege of many enemies around him and fighting for several hours, Wang Chengzong was covered in blood and had unconcealed fatigue on his face, but his eyes were still firm and his expression was still calm.

Wang Chengzong grinned and said, "Just make preparations in advance. If Li Xun led the army, if they saw that the imperial guards had already captured the Eastern Palace, they would definitely think that the prince had been killed. In this way, the morale of the entire army would inevitably decline sharply. Maybe they would protect themselves and choose to withdraw their troops. I asked my soldiers to shout loudly. First, it would boost morale, and then it would spread the voice. No matter who came, as long as they heard the movements in the Eastern Palace, they would understand that the battle was not over and the prince was not dead yet."

"You guys have a good temper, and you can still laugh at this time."

Zhang Jin patted Wang Chengzong on the shoulder heavily and laughed loudly, full of admiration for him. This person is a man who is not afraid of death.

At the same time, Wang Chengzong's words also awakened Zhang Jin. As long as the prince is still alive, the battle will not end. At this time, either Li Xun or other reinforcements may come at any time. At that time, things will turn around.

Zhang Jin immediately shouted loudly: "Brothers, we must hold on. Our reinforcements have arrived. We will save the prince and have a share of glory and wealth."

Zhang Jin has a bold personality, loyalty and emotional emphasis. Such a person is naturally trustworthy. So when he said this, everyone did not have any doubts. He really thought that reinforcements had arrived, and his spirit was suddenly greatly boosted. The original despair on everyone's faces immediately changed to extreme excitement. All the fatigue and negative emotions were wiped out. Everyone's movements suddenly became fierce. Zhang Jin took this opportunity to lead more than a thousand people to carry out a counterattack, and actually drove thousands of imperial soldiers out of the inner palace of the East Palace.

Zhao Bolin's face looked extremely ugly, and he was so sad that he was in a state of grief and anger. He roared in a low voice: "A group of wastes have an absolute advantage, but he couldn't take over the prince Zhao Xun for a long time. He delayed more than three hours here and missed our major affairs!"

"No wonder they are. The Yulin Guard has lived in the imperial city for a long time and is not involved in fighting. The imperial army has many children from aristocratic families. When it comes to a critical moment, how can we expect them to fight for it?"

After saying this silently, Zhao He looked up at the sky. A trace of white light appeared faintly in the sky. It was almost dawn. At this moment, Zhao He suddenly had a strong premonition that he might become a loser in this battle that determines his destiny.
