It turned out that the fireworks Shi XuanRan ignited were a sign for the rebel forces to move.
The rebel army immediately headed for the palace, like a horde of ants about to approach the sugar, like moths approaching an open fire, flocking with horses running towards their destination. The rebel forces were from a small royal army allied with the Shi family and troops trained for years by the Shi family.
The rebel cavalry numbered about 10,000. They use tactics to attack the target directly.
The Palace Army has prepared. They drove out the rebel forces who wanted to break through the main gate. The fire arrows that the Palace army launched as a defense floated above the sky like shooting stars. And the shooting star fell upon the rebel army that raced with their horses.
Some of the rebel forces fell, and some remained steadfast to stand. When they see their fallen comrades, they are not depressed, but become more eager to win the war.
The fire arrows launched were successfully dealt with by the rebel forces holding them with iron shields. They excitedly continued on their way closer to the gate guarded by the Palace troops.
The distance between the rebel forces and the gates of the Palace was getting closer. The palace soldiers who were tasked to defend the gate started to panic and started to launch fire arrows again. However, it was all in vain because the rebel forces had arrived.
They shouted while pushing the main gate. While the Palace troops held the gate to keep it from opening. That opposite pull caused the iron gate to tremble.
With a loud noise, the gate opened.
The Palace troops holding the gate were trampled by the rebel forces that broke through. They tread on people like grass on the ground.
The main gate had been successfully breached and the rebels began to enter the Palace.
The defense of both palaces was ready to wait for the rebel forces. They rushed forward as thousands of people entered the Palace. The rebel forces and the Palace troops fought in the front yard, shedding a lot of blood and taking lives.
The newly blooming flower was trampled, the wet grass became flat and red as blood splashed.
The rebel force was led by Chen Guang who was wearing black armor. He rode on a similar colored horse, and ran towards the Palace building like the wind.
The palace forces that prevented him he slashed to the ground.
In an invisible corner, a woman stands silently watching the scene of a conventional war with no bullets flying and nuclear explosions.
The Palace troops were seen overwhelmed defending the Palace due to the strength of the large rebel forces.
Seeing the bad condition, the woman acted.
"Three..."
"Two..."
"One..."
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a huge explosion appeared. Some of the rebel forces were hit by the Xie Hongyi mine trap until they fell. Their bodies were crushed, separated and torn apart like pieces of chicken.
Xie Hongyi pressed the mine trigger as rebel forces were about to approach the main building. The first stage, the defense carried out by the Palace troops had failed. Now it's time to carry out the second stage.
The strategy was known only to the Palace higher-ups and Huang Long as well as the generals tasked with leading the troops, but Xie Hongyi could easily access the highly classified information.
The rebel forces were silent for a moment. Many of their colleagues have died. Not yet had they recuperated, the relief troops from the Palace led by Jiang Zhi appeared.
Xie Hongyi left when Jiang Zhi's army appeared. He was sure Jiang Zhi could definitely deal with Chen Guang. There's something he has to do. Xie Hongyi was convinced that these rebel forces were not just openly attacking. The woman estimated that there were rebels who entered the palace by taking advantage of the chaotic situation.
Now Huang Long was not here so Xie Hongyi was the one taking care of him.
Behind him was his father, Jiang Wei. As his last contribution to the military, Jiang Wei decided to fight against the rebels.
Jiang Zhi did not know that the troops he brought were from the North. He assumed that they were just ordinary Palace warriors.
Chen Guang was astonished to see his men suddenly fall due to an explosion. He was curious as to what caused the explosion, but soon after hearing Jiang Zhi shout, his attention returned to the battlefield.
Chen Guang looked at Jiang Zhi hatefully. He couldn't possibly forget what Jiang Zhi had done. He then whipped his horse and sped towards Jiang Zhi.
The sword in his hand he raised to slash at Jiang Zhi. Jiang Zhi who sensed the dense murderous aura, was instantly on guard. Up ahead, amidst the sea of warring humans, Chen Guang raised his sword high towards Jiang Zhi.
The clinking of the clashing swords rang out amidst the sea of screaming sounds and then sank like a rock being put into the water.
Both were thrown from their horses. As if not feeling any pain, the two got up and continued the fight.
Like a chicken showing its tail, the once careless Young Master turned into a powerful stud. Each swing of his sword exuded an obvious warrior aura.
"Where's my brother?" Jiang Zhi asked as Chen Guang held back his sword.
Chen Guang painstakingly endured the extremely powerful sword force, even so he remained unfazed by Jiang Zhi's aura. "You really want to know?"
Not getting the answer he wanted, Jiang Zhi was angry. He aimed more power at his sword so as to make Chen Guang fall down.
Chen Guang spat out a mouthful of blood. Face pale. Then he got up and thrust his sword towards Jiang Zhi quickly.
Jiang Zhi was overwhelmed by Chen Guang's attacks, but it was fortunate that she was able to handle them.
The two fought about half an incense stick with a balanced result.
Chen Guang frowned, he was sure that if he continued fighting with Jiang Zhi, the result would not be satisfactory. He turned his brain to find an idea.
Suddenly, a rebel force fell right in front of Chen Guang. Chen Guang raised his head to see who dropped the man.
Seeing Jiang Wei slashing his men, Chen Guang smiled cunningly.
He then moved away from Jiang Zhi. Jiang Zhi who saw his movements suddenly felt strange. Then when he found out what Chen Guang wanted, Jiang Zhi's eyes widened.
"Dad!"
Up ahead there, Chen Guang was about to stab Jiang Wei from behind and it seemed like the father of Jiang Zhi was unaware of it.
Jiang Zhi moved quickly, she darted towards where Jiang Wei was.
But he's late. Chen Guang had thrust his sword into Jiang Wei's back. Instantly blood spurted from Jiang Wei's hollow body like a shower of water.
In fact, Jiang Wei also realized that someone was approaching him, yet he could not turn around because the rebel forces were still attacking him. At the moment when it had dropped the rebel army, Jiang Wei was about to turn around to fight against someone who was rushing towards him. However, his back was first pierced by a sharp object.
The pain from the sword piercing through his heart made Jiang Wei fall down and kneel on the ground.
Jiang Wei raised his head and saw Chen Guang smiling in satisfaction. Chen Guang then raised a sword about to stab back at Jiang Wei.
The sound of the iron gun was heard again. Jiang Zhi managed to hold back Chen Guang's sword. He then stabbed Chen Guang, this time he managed to injure Chen Guang on his shoulder.
"Aah!" Chen Guang's screams were in pain as blood flowed from his shoulder which left his left arm numb.
