Chapter 1354
As if in a show of defiance, one of them raised his long sword and roared at the top of his lungs, "Break!!" His voice was loud and menacing.
following.
The many soldiers following behind them also raised their weapons and shouted in unison, "Break!!!"
The combined voices of many people were incredibly powerful, deafening, and awe-inspiring!
Upon hearing this, Ru Chang and the others turned several shades pale.
He glanced nervously to his left, right, and behind him, knowing in his heart that this kind of force was far beyond what his side could match, even with the added influence of Xu Huizu and his father Xu Da in the military... it still couldn't compare.
However, momentum is inherently ebb and flow.
The stronger the momentum of the Huai Xi military commander's side became, the more even some of his warhorses stomped their hooves uneasily.
However, Xu Huizu looked at the many elite soldiers in front of him with a cold expression, but there was no fear in his eyes. He said coldly, "I only remember my father teaching me that I must be loyal to His Majesty and protect this hard-won stable country."
Although Xu Miaojin was partly to blame, Xu Huizu was unquestionable in terms of loyalty, so he was naturally exceptionally resolute at this moment.
only.
Xu Huizu's words were completely ignored by the many noble families of Huaixi, who had long been corrupted by power and money.
Immediately, someone spat and said dismissively, "Pah! What bullshit about loyalty? Do we have to be loyal even if we're eating chaff and wild vegetables? We've done so much to put him in that position, can't we ask for some benefits?"
Xu Huizu said with a straight face and a serious expression, "This is usurpation and treason."
This charge would be a huge burden for anyone else, but not for the nobles of Huaixi: "Whether it's usurpation or treason, you have to decide! The current situation is up to us!"
Xu Huizu brandished his spear without hesitation, pointing the spear tip at the many Huaixi military commanders. Although he did not utter another word, his eyes were filled with aggression and killing intent.
And at the same time.
Zhu Yunwen slowly tore open the gunpowder packet in his hand, filled it into the flintlock pistol in his hand, and then slowly stuffed in a bullet, not even bothering to lift his head.
Lan Yu and the others knew that Xu Huizu had made up his mind.
So he stopped arguing with him.
Lan Yu, completely unconcerned, turned to Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, who had finally managed to get a chance to make a move and was rubbing his hands together in anticipation, and said, "There's an extra child. Can you handle him?"
"Nonsense!" The other party replied succinctly with just two words.
And at this time.
Lan Yu and the others did not notice.
At this moment, Chang Sheng, the eldest nephew beside him, had already exchanged a knowing glance with Zhang Wen...
—Although they were also troubled by Zhu Yunwen's sudden actions, since things had already happened, and the Marquis of Huaixi was looking for people to raise an army, they naturally couldn't just not think of any solutions. So Zhang Wen thought it over and decided to follow the main force's actions with Chang Sheng and remain still, and then seize the opportunity to act as the sixth man at a critical moment.
This might increase the chances of winning by a little bit, so it's a last resort.
Chang Sheng took a deep breath.
Looking towards Zhu Yunwen, she wanted to give him a subtle look, but found that her nephew... was actually fiddling with something with his head down in this tense atmosphere.
He seemed completely distracted, his mind not at all on this tense situation.
Chang Sheng and Zhang Wen were both speechless. Zhang Wen lowered his voice and said to Chang Sheng beside him, "What is His Majesty up to this time? Is it more important than his current safety or the stability of the Ming Dynasty?"
"I...I don't know either!" Chang Sheng was also at a loss for words, completely bewildered: "This unlucky kid has made such a huge mess, doesn't he realize how serious things are?"
