Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

"Prime Minister, this is bad!"

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

The prime minister, who was still sleeping, was awakened by a group of people while he was in a daze.

In a hurry, when I opened my eyes, I could already hear noisy sounds in my ears.

Countless roars and sounds of fighting began to surround his ears.

At this moment, the prime minister lost all sleepiness and a cold sweat began to spread from the soles of his feet.

He never expected that Zhou Zheng would actually dare to launch a sneak attack at this time. What's more important was that judging from the sounds outside, it seemed that they had already broken in.

Thinking of this, the prime minister's heart suddenly shook, and a sense of panic began to spread in his heart.

"The other side, how many, how many people!"

He forced himself to calm down, looked at the generals around him, and asked in a deep voice.

Unfortunately, no one could answer his question, which made the prime minister feel more ominous.

He had thought of countless possibilities, but he had never thought that things would develop to this point. Could it be that he had failed before the decisive battle even started?!

"Trash, they are all a bunch of trash!"

"The court paid a huge price just to make you like this?!"

The prime minister was so angry that he suddenly slapped the nearest general.

A group of guys, who are always giving orders on how to deal with things on a daily basis, but when it comes to the critical moment, they become greedy for life and afraid of death.

The enemy had come right before him, but he didn't even know what the enemy's situation was. Thinking of this, the Prime Minister wanted to slap each of them in the face.

However, as the sounds of fighting around him grew louder, the Prime Minister became more uneasy.

He wanted to go out and take a look, but he was worried about being attacked by a hidden arrow.

After all, anyone can die, but you alone cannot get hurt.

You know, he came here this time just to make some preparations for his ascension to the throne. If he gets injured here and affects his enthronement, it would be too unprofitable.

"Your Majesty, the enemy has only about 5,000 men."

Just when the prime minister was at a loss, Huang Cheng appeared.

His voice was as loud as a bell, and he was not panicked at all.

Five thousand?

When he heard the number five thousand, the confusion and panic on the prime minister's face completely disappeared.

He has an army of 300,000. Even if he just stood here and let 5,000 people hack him, it would be enough to tire them to death.

"General Huang, what are your plans?!"

Feeling a little relieved, the prime minister coughed lightly and then turned his gaze back to Huang Cheng, whom he had looked down upon just now.

It must be said that although the prime minister was ambitious, greedy for pleasure, and more fond of flattering words, he also knew that Huang Cheng was truly capable, so he did not punish him.

Because, at critical moments, we still want people like this to take charge.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister. There are only five thousand men. We can take them down in a snap."

Huang Cheng is not bragging, but with three hundred thousand against five thousand, there is no way he can lose.

Most importantly, they have muskets in their hands!

It was just that the sneak attack was too sudden and everyone was unable to react in time.

"Well, hurry up and act!"

Hearing this, the prime minister was overjoyed. He waved his hand and prepared to let Huang Cheng take action.

However, Huang Cheng just stood there without moving.

This made the prime minister a little annoyed for a moment. This guy, could it be that he is still holding a grudge against what happened before and is pretending to be tough and not taking any action, hoping that he would beg him?

If that's the case, this person can't be kept anymore.

"Prime Minister, I have no military power at the moment."

Seeing the Prime Minister in a hurry, Huang Cheng was speechless. Does this guy have amnesia?

Although Huang Cheng was not punished tonight, his military power was taken away. It is impossible for him to command the army now.

Since he has no military power, no matter how powerful he is, he can do nothing.

"Pass the order, let Huang Cheng command the three armies. Anyone who disobeys will be executed immediately!"

It must be said that the Prime Minister was able to clearly distinguish the importance of the situation at a critical moment. For a moment, he directly handed over the entire military power to the people.

Such an operation made everyone's eyes widen.

Especially those generals who had previously wanted to overthrow Huang Cheng felt even more uneasy.

Because in this way, Huang Cheng's power will be greatly increased, and most importantly, he will stand at the forefront and become the most shining general.

After today's great victory, even if Huang Cheng no longer understands the ways of the world, at least his value has been demonstrated.

Huang Cheng was also a little surprised. He never expected that the prime minister would trust him so much at this time.

For a moment, Huang Cheng's attitude towards the prime minister also changed drastically.

It seems that this prime minister is not completely useless.

"Why don't you go now!?"

"If you can't handle the sneak attack, I'll hold you accountable!"

Seeing Huang Cheng still standing there in a daze, the Prime Minister hurriedly urged him.

After all, it would be troublesome if those traitors really came to kill him.

Of course, it seems that the prime minister is doing this for the overall situation and values ​​talents, but in fact, only he himself knows that he is only doing this for his own safety.

After decades of ups and downs in officialdom, he knows better than anyone that power is just a matter of words.

He could give Huang Cheng power now, and he could take it back the next day.

Unless Huang Cheng can really accomplish something for me and is truly valuable.

This world is so fair.

Everything is measured by value. Your value determines what you get.

Of course, this so-called value is determined by the prime minister himself.

"Prime Minister, do you want to kill them all? Or do you want to leave some alive?"

After being appointed as the Prime Minister, Huang Cheng was full of confidence.

With an army of 300,000 at hand, it would be the greatest humiliation for me if I couldn't wipe out these guys in one fell swoop.

"Humph, kill them all! No one will be left alive!"

Hearing this, the Prime Minister's eyes narrowed slightly, and murderous intent roared out into the sky.

If you dare to disturb your sweet dreams, you will have to pay an absolute price.

No matter what, he wants these people to die!

"Order!"

Without any nonsense, Huang Cheng strode out of the tent.

Seeing Huang Cheng's disappearing back, the Prime Minister felt an inexplicable sense of peace for some reason.

"Take the lead, hand over 300,000 troops to Huang Cheng, isn't that a bit hasty?"

Finally, a general couldn't help it and knelt in front of the prime minister.

They had been at odds with Huang Cheng before, and now the situation is likely to get even worse.

"Are you teaching me what to do?"

He looked at the general coldly, the biting chill made his body shiver.

At this time, you are still thinking about fighting for power and profit. You deserve to die!

If you really have the ability, why didn't you take action just now? !

Thinking of this, the prime minister became even angrier.

A bunch of good-looking but useless guys.

Feeling the chill in the prime minister's heart, the other generals' mouths trembled, then they smiled awkwardly and quickly retreated on the pretext of guarding the prime minister.

......

"General, the court has already reacted."

"The encirclement has begun to form."

On the mountain, the anxiety on the guards' faces became more and more obvious.

The five thousand elite soldiers of the Zhenbei Army were in battle, so naturally they could not see the situation clearly, but they were in a high position and could see it clearly.

The imperial army, which had been in chaos, was now mobilizing its troops in an orderly manner.

They did not fight head-on, but gradually formed a siege.

It was obvious that they wanted to keep all 5,000 Zhenbei troops.

Lei Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"It seems that the other side still has some capable people."

With a slight nod, a smile slowly appeared on Lei Tong's face.

However, everyone was somewhat confused about Lei Tong's reaction at this time.

"Sir, if we don't retreat now, it will be too late."

They urged anxiously, saying that once the encirclement was formed, it would be extremely difficult to break out.

“Breakout!?”

"Why do you want to break out?!"

The sword in his hand seemed to sense the arrogant fighting spirit in Lei Tong and made a low buzzing sound.

Such a response made the dozen or so guards tremble all over!

They looked at each other, obviously not understanding what Lei Tong meant.

"This time, I have no intention of retreating."

Buzz! ! ! !

These short sentences made the guards startle suddenly.

They looked at each other, all of them showing a hint of surprise.

But soon, they returned to normal.

No one spoke, but they all drew out the long swords from their waists.

The ten people were speechless, and just stood firmly behind Lei Tong!

......
