Chapter 153 The Enchanting Consort Appears

"kill."

Fifty thousand elite cavalrymen charged into the palace, their battle cries echoing across the city, startling both high-ranking officials and commoners.

A major event has occurred in the palace.

On the other side, Zhang Tiezhu and Qin Yong heard the shouts of killing and their expressions changed drastically.

Did the Imperial Guard launch the attack first?

The time has come; win or lose, they must launch an attack.

"Brothers, kill."

Before Qin Yong could give the order, Zhang Tiezhu shouted and drew his heavy sword with a clang, taking the lead in charging towards the north gate.

The tightly closed North Gate was heavy and imposing. Zhang Tiezhu slashed at it with his sword, sparks flew, but the North Gate remained unmoved.

"Damn, these guys are even more shameless than that brat Lü Jun! We can't cut through them!" Zhang Tiezhu shouted exaggeratedly, his voice reaching everyone's ears.

"Chairman, step back, we need the siege engine." Qin Yong shouted hurriedly. Zhang Tiezhu's status was no longer what it used to be. He was no longer the simpleton Zheng Le Escort Agency in Lvchang City. He had to be addressed as Chairman.

"Old Qin, you should have said so earlier," Zhang Tiezhu muttered as he retreated.

"Haha, don't worry, President, we will definitely win tonight."

"Must win."

Amidst the shouts, the low morale of the 20,000 men suddenly soared.

A glint of light flashed in Zhang Tiezhu's eyes. They were all terrified of the Imperial Guards, but his comical behavior dispelled their fear and brought them a sense of ease and joy.

After two months of tutelage by Zheng Qian, Zhang Tiezhu was no longer the simpleton he once was; he had become the president of the Shengshi Huazhang Chamber of Commerce, a man of shrewd calculation and leadership skills.

Qin Yong gave him a grateful look; Zhang Tiezhu had unknowingly helped boost the morale of the Changwu Army.

A siege engine, larger than the Red Turban Army's catapults, was slowly pushed out. It was provided by Fengzi Kingdom to the Changwu Army and was specifically designed to breach city walls and gates.

"One, two, three, heave-ho!"

The ten-meter-long siege ram was pushed by five hundred Changwu soldiers, its speed increasing as it crashed violently into the north gate.

boom……

With a loud crash, the heavy North Gate collapsed.

"kill."

The First Battalion, as the vanguard, led by He Yanqiang, was the first to rush into the North Gate.

Whoosh...

Suddenly, countless arrows shot out from inside the palace, and the Changwu army that rushed in first was instantly riddled with arrows.

Zhou Tan was as calm as a deep pool, his resolute face revealing no emotion. He stood at the forefront, his eyes fixed on the north gate, not daring to relax for a moment.

Although the Imperial Guards were elite soldiers selected from various regions, and their numbers and quality surpassed those of the Changwu Army, they also had a unique advantage due to their operation from their main base. However, being in the most authoritative palace of the Wuyan Kingdom, he could not afford to be complacent and had to give his all in every battle.

Outside the gate, the battalion brought out ten crossbows with seven bolts each. These were secret weapons invented by Feng Ziguo, capable of firing seven arrows at once. They were not only incredibly powerful but also could be reloaded quickly, making them a godsend for street fighting and ground attacks.

"Seven crossbows, fire!"

At He Yanqiang's command, seventy arrows shot into the north gate, accompanied by the screams of the imperial guards.

Immediately afterwards, arrows kept flying out from inside the north gate, and the battalion did not dare to be outdone, continuously shooting arrows into the north gate as well.

"what……"

Suddenly, a dense array of imperial guards appeared on the palace walls, armed with bows and arrows, and unleashed a barrage of fire on the Changwu army in the streets, instantly inflicting over a hundred casualties on the Changwu army.

"Retreat!" He Yanqiang gave the order, and the entire battalion of soldiers retreated into the alley.

"Kill!" The Imperial Guards were incredibly fierce; they abandoned their defenses and jumped off the city wall to charge towards the Changwu Army.

"Initiate the second operational plan." Qin Yong's eyes were icy. It was expected that the Imperial Guards would break through the city walls, and he had already prepared a plan to deal with it.

In the alley, three thousand Zhuge Repeating Crossbows were ready to go, along with ten thousand crossbow clips and two hundred thousand sharp arrows, enough to shoot the Imperial Guards out of the pincushion.

When the Imperial Guards rushed into the alley, a dense barrage of arrows was unleashed, and a large number of them fell instantly.

Qin Yong seized the opportunity and shouted, "Second Battalion crossbowmen, provide cover! First Battalion, rush up the city wall!"

Whoosh...

Countless arrows struck the city wall and its back. Under the cover of the arrow rain, He Yanqiang leaped onto the city wall, picked up the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, and fired ten shots in quick succession. The Changwu Army occupied the city wall, and the tug-of-war began.

Compared to the arduous battle fought by the Changwu Army, Zheng Qian's Poyue Dragon Cavalry had a much easier time. They attacked from the area between the South Gate and the East Gate without encountering any resistance, and then split into three routes, radiating towards the Imperial Palace.

Inside the palace, Lü Jun heard a booming sound and knew that the Changwu Army had launched an attack. He lost interest in playing around any longer and stepped out of the blood-soaked bath. Two eunuchs trotted in and carried away the body of another young girl.

"Come here and lick it clean for me." Lu Jun beckoned to dozens of young girls, who rolled down to his feet and stuck out their delicate tongues to clean the blood off him.

"vomit……"

The first girl had barely stuck out her tongue when she gagged; Lü Jun was covered in the blood of young girls.

Bang.

Lu Jin smashed the girl's head with a single palm strike, and the other girls rolled away even faster, not daring to make a sound.

"Who in this world dares to disobey me?"

Just then, a Shadow Guard expert ran up to Lü Jun and knelt down, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Deputy Commander Zhou Tan has engaged in battle with the Changwu Army and has held them off outside the North Gate."

"Where is Consort Mei? Has she appeared?" Lü Jun's voice was authoritative and cold. He didn't care about the Changwu Army at all. In front of the Imperial Guards, the Changwu Army couldn't cause any trouble and posed no threat to him.

Lu Jun's greatest enemy was not Lu Jin, nor Zheng Qian who led the 50,000 Xuanhu Army, but Consort Mei.

Consort Mei is not only a master in the mid-stage of the Spirit Fusion Realm, but also the most skilled assassin in Wuyan Kingdom. Her charm technique is so powerful that it is impossible to defend against. Even the Shadow Master has to admit that he is old and his hands and feet are not as nimble as Consort Mei's in front of her.

The most terrifying thing is that some of the Shadow Guards are new recruits trained by Consort Mei in recent years, and no one knows anything about them. Perhaps the palace maids and eunuchs around him are all Consort Mei's people, making it impossible for him to have peace and quiet, whether he's eating, drinking, or sleeping.

"Your Majesty, there is still no news of Consort Mei." The Shadow Guard lowered his head, not daring to meet Lü Jun's gaze.

"What? There's still no news about her? They're all a bunch of useless trash!" Lu Jun roared in anger, kicking over a Shadow Guard.

"Go to the Hall of Audience. I want to wait for Consort Mei to appear and kill her myself."

The Hall of Audience was packed with tens of thousands of experts, three layers deep, including Shadow Guards, members of the four major families, soldiers, and royal guards. These experts were the foundation upon which Lü Jun easily killed the former emperor and successfully ascended the throne.

Even if there were 50,000 Imperial Guards, these 10,000 experts could rival them.

This is the foundation upon which Lü Jun firmly sits on the throne.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

The eunuch's shrill voice rang out outside the court hall, and tens of thousands of experts knelt down in unison.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

With a gloomy face, Lü Jun stepped down from the dragon sedan chair and strode along the imperial road reserved for the emperor, not even glancing at the kneeling experts.

Just as Lü Jun was about to step into the court hall, a kneeling guard suddenly sprang up and slashed at Lü Jun with his sword.

"die."

bang...

The guard was still in the air when he was punched to death by Eunuch Deng, the chief eunuch beside Lü Jun.

Just then, a jet-black dagger flashed towards Lü Jun's throat.

The attack was too fast; Lü Jun had no time to react.

*Clang.* Just at the critical moment, another jet-black dagger appeared, steadily blocking the incoming blade.

hum...

At the same time, a silver spear, like a raging silver dragon, roared and charged toward the owner of the dagger.

With a whoosh, the dagger's owner dodged the silver spear with uncanny footwork, and in a few flashes, he had already left the Hall of Audience and retreated to the center of the Imperial Road, a path only the emperor was allowed to walk on.

Lu Jun stared ruthlessly at the person in the center of the imperial path, his eyes filled with boundless desire and endless killing intent, and said coldly.

"Consort Mei, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
