People write diaries in Zongwu, and the heroes collapse

It’s not that they didn’t want to save Zhao Ji, but they really were powerless to do so.

As for why they did not surrender, some of them were loyal to Zhao Ji, but not all of them were loyal. Some of them were afraid that they would be liquidated by the rebels after surrendering. Some of the surrendered imperial guards were slaughtered mercilessly by the rebels during the day.

Even though they were all imperial guards, they were ruthless when it came to killing their own people, so of course they still had lingering fears.

Besides, at this time, as long as Zhao Ji was not dead, there would be no winner. Once they surrendered now, and the government fought back and drove away the rebels, they would be rebels, and that would be a crime punishable by the execution of nine generations of their clan, so they did not dare to gamble.

"I've heard that Lord Ji is a master at solving cases in the Six Gates, as famous as the Four Great Detectives, and is highly valued by the God of Detectives. Today, you summoned us here, but I don't think you are trying to persuade us to join the rebels."

An officer stared at Ji Yaohua and suddenly said.

When the others heard this, they immediately became nervous, and some of them even touched the hilt of the knife.

If Ji Yaohua dared to lie to them, the worst that could happen was that they would just fight their way out. Now that the situation was unclear, they didn't want to join the rebellion.

Ji Yaohua was aware of their little move and smiled and said, "Of course not. I, Ji Yaohua, am loyal to the court and will never waver. The previous leader of the Six Gates, Liu Jiyan, defected to King Zuo Wu and was killed. Now I will temporarily take over the position of the leader of the Six Gates."

"Liu Jiyan is dead..."

They were immediately shocked. Even though they were all generals of the imperial guards, they had heard of Liu Ji Yan's name.

Liu Jiyan is a grandmaster, but such a person was actually killed by Ji Yaohua. It seems that Ji Yaohua’s strength cannot be underestimated.

At this moment, they no longer dared to underestimate Ji Yaohua.

"Master Ji, you know that we are all rough people. If we have offended you before, please don't blame us. Now, the capital has been captured by the rebels. They are looking for us everywhere in the city. We can't hide for long. Please lead us out."

A captain stood up and spoke respectfully to Ji Yaohua.

Everyone else looked at Ji Yaohua hopefully. If anyone dared to say that they could get them out of the city safely, it would have to be the Six Gates.

In their eyes, the Six Gates have always been omnipotent.

"I know you all want to escape from the city now, but have you ever thought that there are nearly 3,000 of you in total? Even if you are careful, you will be discovered by the rebels. This road is not feasible."

Ji Yaohua pointed out a cruel fact: if there were only a few or a dozen people, it would not be difficult to send them out of the city with the strength of the Six Gates.

However, the movement of three thousand people would make too much noise, and it was impossible to send them out at once without alerting the rebels in the city.

Everyone groaned, and they knew this.

Just when they were in despair, Ji Yaohua's voice continued: "However, we don't need to flee the city, and there is no need to escape."

"Master Ji, what do you mean by this?"

"Hasn't what I said been clear enough? We don't have to surrender to the rebels, nor do we have to flee the city. Instead, we can just stay in the capital."

Ji Yaohua said again.

"Stay in the capital?"

"good."

"Does Master Ji have a better solution?"

Ji Yaohua said with a smile: "The rebels in the city are very happy now, and their defenses are lax. Besides, King Zuo Wu is not in the capital. Now as long as we deal with those rebel generals, with our current strength, it will be no problem to retake the capital."

Most of the imperial guards in the city were busy robbing money and women. Besides, they were tired after a long day and had already fallen asleep. This was indeed the best time to retake the capital.

Someone frowned and thought for a while, then said, "With the strength of the Six Gates, it is not a problem to capture the rebel generals. As long as these rebel generals are gone, the rebels will be in disarray, and then we can take back the capital."

Without waiting for everyone to be happy, he continued, "Master Ji also said that King Zuo Wu is very skilled in martial arts. If he returns to the capital, what will happen even if we control the capital?"

Everyone nodded when they heard this. If King Zuo Wu came back, even if they had a strong city in their hands, they would still be lambs to be slaughtered.

Ji Yaohua smiled and said, "Don't worry, all you have to do is follow my command and take over the capital. As for King Zuo Wu, there will be someone to deal with him."

"To be frank with you, the only person in the entire capital who can deal with King Zuo Wu is Zhuge Shen Hou. However, before I came here, I heard a piece of news that Zhuge Shen Hou is now dead or alive. Otherwise, with Zhuge Shen Hou around, King Zuo Wu would not dare to rebel."

“I heard the news, too.”

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other. They knew that this matter must be true, otherwise it would be impossible for such a long time without Zhuge Shenhou showing up.

Ji Yaohua saw their expressions and knew what they were thinking. She laughed and said to everyone, "I'm not talking about Zhuge Shenhou."

"Who else could it be except Zhuge Shenhou?"

A military leader asked with a frown.

"Have you ever heard of the incident in Xiyun City where one person defeated a million enemies?"

Ji Yaohua asked everyone.

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, and one person asked excitedly: "Master Ji, are you talking about Lu Chen?"

"good."

Ji Yaohua smiled and nodded: "He is in the capital now. With him here, King Zuo Wu can't cause any trouble."

"No wonder!"

Now they finally understood why Ji Yaohua was able to kill the great master Liu Jiyan, and why he dared to gather them together to take back the capital. It turned out that there was such a master standing behind him.

Their hope was instantly ignited. This was a strong man who had defeated millions of enemy troops.

"Okay, Master Ji has given an order, and we will obey it. I wonder what Master Ji's plan is?"

Everyone looked at Ji Yaohua, waiting for her next plan.

Ji Yaohua glanced at the people present. These people were all middle and lower-level officers in the imperial guards. As long as the plan was well planned, retaking the capital would be a piece of cake.

Butterfly, who was standing behind Ji Yaohua, brought a city defense map of the capital. This city defense map was a top secret of the imperial court and had been hidden in the Ministry of War. Even the officials of the Ministry of War did not know where it was hidden. However, it now appeared in front of them, which made them admire the methods of the Six Gates.

In fact, before this, Ji Yaohua had sneaked into the Ministry of War and found the city defense map of the capital from the secret room of the Ministry's archives, but the Ministry of War did not know that the city defense map had been stolen.

The situation of the rebel generals in the capital had already been drawn on the city defense map, including their residences and the rebel troops deployed.

With this city defense map, they can easily recapture the capital.

Ji Yaohua began to assign them tasks. They had to launch a surprise attack tonight and capture all the middle and upper-level rebel generals.

After the tasks were assigned, they started to act.

Ji Yaohua brought about twenty people from the Six Gates, and behind them were more than two hundred imperial guards. Their current target was General Rong Bo of the Divine Guard.
