Chapter 189 Jiang Chen's Response
The commanders of the other three battalions usually didn't like Du Mingyu at all.
All this happened after Du Mingyu joined Jiang Chen.
There have been significant changes!
"Old Du, ask the Marquis."
"See if the old man has any other ideas."
"Yes, if the Marquis has any other ideas."
"We can defeat these barbarians in the western border earlier and receive the title sooner."
Hearing what the commander of the third battalion said, Du Mingyu couldn't help but smile proudly.
"Of course my Lord has an idea, but it's just what he said."
"It's not the right time yet, wait until the right time comes."
"He will naturally take us with him to achieve great things!"
After saying that, Du Mingyu bowed to the three of them.
"Okay, judging from the noise, Prince An's army should be attacking the city again."
"Defense is urgent, I will go back first."
Du Mingyu bowed to the three people and returned to the West Gate which he was in charge of.
As soon as he returned to the city gate where he was guarding, he saw Prince An's army about a hundred meters away.
They began to launch a series of makeshift catapults from the rear of the army!
Seeing this scene, Du Mingyu suddenly panicked.
"Quick, hide!"
"Hide well, don't seek death!"
After speaking loudly, Du Mingyu took the lead and buried his head behind the city wall.
Following the reminder from their commander, all the soldiers of the Blue Camp hid themselves.
Then came huge pieces of stone.
Then Prince An's army used catapults to smash towards the city walls of the imperial capital!
However, thanks to the timely reaction of the soldiers of the Blue Camp, they all hid behind the city wall.
So, they were not affected by these huge rocks.
As for the defenders at the other three city gates, they were in trouble.
At first, the commanders of the other three battalions did not care, but when they saw their men being smashed into meat patties by the huge stone.
Only then was I awakened by this tragic scene!
"Quick, find cover!"
Stimulated by the bloody scene, the three commanders hid behind the bunkers in panic.
The soldiers under their command also hid in a panic.
But even so, many soldiers were smashed into pieces.
Many houses close to the city wall were also hit by the falling rocks.
It turned into collapsed ruins, and the people living there naturally died.
After receiving the news, Jiang Chen quickly put on his helmet and armor.
The soldiers of the Qing Camp were busy all over the city.
Rescued the people who were still alive and buried under the rubble.
However, King An's army did not attack the city, but continued to bombard the city walls from time to time using catapults.
"This damn barbarian from the Western Territory is so cruel as to kill ordinary people!"
Looking at the people rescued by Jiang Chen and his men, Du Mingyu couldn't help but curse.
Although the people who were rescued were still alive, most of them were missing limbs.
Some of them only had one breath left and were on their deathbed.
"Alright, Du Mingyu, stop scolding."
"No matter how harshly you scold, it's useless. I'm afraid Prince An's army will launch a general attack soon."
“That’s why they do it.”
"It is to destroy our method of using 'gold juice' to defend the city."
“At the same time, we will lose the support of the people.”
Listening to Du Mingyu's curse, Jiang Chen couldn't help but say.
The scene he was worried about finally happened.
This move by Prince An's army has completely aroused the dissatisfaction of most of the people in the city.
In their opinion, if the defenders in the imperial capital let Prince An enter the city.
They would not be treated like this, at least they would survive!
Instead of being like those unlucky guys who are missing limbs and are only breathing their last breath.
Soon, these dissatisfied people began to revolt spontaneously.
Throughout the imperial capital, the defenders began to be blocked from transporting food.
What's worse, some people even took kitchen knives and farm tools.
Seized the food from the defenders!
Under the influence of these people, the situation in the imperial capital quickly became out of control.
The entire imperial capital was completely out of balance.
Countless people rushed into the homes of those high-ranking officials.
Beat, smash, and rob!
He even raped the maids and concubines.
The entire imperial capital was in ruins in an instant.
After learning the whole news, Jiang Chen was immediately furious.
"Well, what a great Prince An."
"They actually deliberately stirred up public anger in order to disintegrate the defenders of the imperial capital!"
"It seems that I have underestimated you!"
Jiang Chen said this as he angrily drew the sword from his waist.
"Someone, go tell the East and West Factories!"
"This Lord, tonight, we are going to kill these spies hidden in the city."
"We need to find them all out one by one!"
The angry Jiang Chen directly changed into the Qilin robe that the commander of the Jinyiwei wore.
Regardless of Su Dingxia and Li Xianglian's feelings, he forced his way in under his own name as the commander of the Imperial Guards.
He brought the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the guards from the East Factory and the West Factory and began a large-scale search in the city.
Sure enough, after Jiang Chen's search.
Countless spies and agents planted by Prince An were directly caught !
" What a big deal! It was done before the imperial capital was locked down."
"So many spies have been planted..."
Looking at the numbers that were counted, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
After some investigation, it was found that Prince An had planted more than 300 spies!
Jiang Chen had never expected this number.
You know, after the regent ascended the throne.
Orders have already been issued that the entire empire must be on high alert.
We cannot easily allow spies from various forces to sneak into the imperial capital.
But even so, Prince An still sent in more than 300 people.
Jiang Chen was naturally not polite or soft-hearted towards these three hundred people.
Give the order directly to kill all three hundred people!
They also chopped off the heads of some of the important figures.
Then, he was thrown out of the city.
However, Jiang Chen still kindly wrote a letter.
"I am here on the orders of my general to bring back some things for His Royal Highness Prince An."
"I hope Your Highness Prince An will keep these things and don't let my general down."
Looking at this letter of comfort, Prince An frowned.
Then, he asked the generals under his command.
"What did the defenders in the city send back?!"
After hearing Prince An's question, all the generals lowered their heads.
I didn't dare to raise my head and look directly into Prince An's eyes.
Finally, Prince An, who had become impatient, became furious.
"Tell me, why are you all so dumb?!"
Seeing that Prince An was furious, Prime Minister Huo had no choice but to stand up.
"Your Highness, the city's garrison sent it back."
"They are the heads of the spies we planted earlier."
As he spoke, Prime Minister Huo signaled several soldiers to bring up the heads.
