Chapter 85

Xie Mu leaned on the railing and looked over.

Suddenly!

At the end of the street, a team of soldiers and horses surged like a tide, the armor shining with cold light, and the weapons in their hands flashing with killing intent.

Like a surging red cloud, approaching rapidly, with magnificent momentum.

In an instant, the Western Depot was surrounded.

Birds cannot fly in, mosquitoes cannot fly out!

The iron armor is cold, and teams of one hundred cavalry circle the Western Depot.

The guards at the entrance of the Western Depot were a bit panicked when facing the scene at this moment, but they could still stand firm.

Xie Mu couldn't help but exclaim when he saw this.

"Jin Wu Guard!"

Xie Mu marveled, carefully examining these well-trained soldiers, they were wearing red-rope bright armor, like red dragons swimming.

Setting up red flags, and daring to ride horses in the capital.

Only!

The forbidden army of the capital.

The soldiers in it were selected from the army, all wearing heavy armor.

Heavy armor is also called—"Mercury Ring Lock Armor", "Emperor Jing Armor."

The Great Qing law is strict!

Making heavy armor is a serious crime, and those who can be craftsmen must be filed with the military for generations.

Red-rope bright armor!

It is the most precious armor in the Great Qing, weighing sixty pounds.

The outer layer is connected by iron armor leaves with leather strips or armor nails, belonging to typical lamellar armor.

The inner layer is made of chain armor, "its armor has five rings interlocking, one ring receives arrows, all rings guard, the armor is like a chain, shooting cannot enter."

This kind of chain armor!

It is the skill of Nanqiang, which was later introduced to the Great Qing through tribute and gradually prevailed in the Great Qing Dynasty.

Each of its rings is closely connected, one ring receives force, and the other four rings will share it together, greatly reducing the force of a single ring, reducing the force of a single ring, because the structure of the chain armor is interlocking, making the defense of the armor more powerful.

The armor has inner and outer layers, which were cleverly woven by a red rope after being improved by Emperor Jing back then, which not only added to the ornamental value of the armor but also reflected the exquisite skills of the craftsmen.

Defense and flexibility greatly increased!

Red-rope bright armor as the most top-level armor in the Great Qing.

In the capital, only a few forbidden armies are qualified to be equipped.

Huang Dao looked from the railing, and the flag of the Jin Wu Guard fluttered in the distance.

The team is vast!

There are six battalions of strength.

The common people on both sides avoided one after another, and there were one thousand left and right Xiao Guards, responsible for clearing the street.

A piece of killing intent.

Penglai Pavilion is also not allowed to go out, and the guests are all leaning out of the windows to look at the street.

The guests were also disturbed by the movement outside, and they leaned out of the windows one after another, looking at this spectacular scene.

Discussions rose one after another, and people were guessing that the capital was going to change.

Xie Mu said in surprise:

"There are six battalions of strength? Four thousand people."

Huang Dao smiled slightly, scanning the street, and there were several Grandmaster-level experts hidden in the team.

"Not bad."

"This current little emperor is also not simple. Looking at this battle, he has long been prepared. I am afraid that we are not the only ones who are fishermen."

Huang Dao said leisurely: "This so-called Emperor Jing Armor was designed by Emperor Jing back then to slay Great Grandmasters."

Xie Mu realized that the dispatch of forbidden troops of this scale!

It must be the imperial decree of the current Son of Heaven to be able to dispatch.

The system of the capital's forbidden guards is orderly, divided into two parts: inside and outside the palace.

Inside the palace, it is guarded by forbidden army organizations led by eunuchs, Minister of the Imperial Household, and Commandant of the Guards.

The capital city is guarded by the forbidden guards led by the Jin Wu Guard, City Gate Colonel, and Northern Army Zhonghou.

"Living, guarding the palace, directly guarding the portal; going out, following the left and right, guarding the carriage."

When the emperor travels, there are rules.

Several forces guard the capital together, checking and balancing each other.

Now!

The power of the Empress Dowager has exceeded that of the current Emperor Qing.

As the wings of the Empress Dowager, the influence of the Western Depot cannot be ignored.

Except for the Western Depot, the three forces led by the City Gate Colonel, totaling more than 40,000 people, all follow the orders of the Empress Dowager and do not recognize the Emperor's jade seal.

On the contrary, the forces under the current Son of Heaven are slightly weak. The Eastern Depot and the Jin Wu Guard combined are only more than 10,000 people.

Xie Mu couldn't help but be surprised.

And felt confused about the sudden encirclement of the Western Depot.

The Empress Dowager is old and has few days left.

There is really no need for the Emperor and the Empress Dowager to turn against each other, this move will only do more harm than good.

Once all parties react, relying on the general trend, they can easily suppress the Jin Wu Guard, and then the situation will be irreversible.

How can the Son of Heaven place himself?

The Western Depot and the City Gate Colonel come and go from east to west, occupying the north and south parts of the capital city respectively.

Only seven miles apart.

Supporting each other, and can support each other!

He asked suspiciously:

"The Western Depot is surrounded, the momentum is huge, why do they have no reaction at all?"

And looking at the reaction of the Western Depot, it is also quite unexpected.

It is impossible not to notice!

The woman in purple gauze, Ouyang Ouyang Wenwan, was also full of doubts. She had lived in the capital for a long time, and the situation in the court was clear.

The jade business in the capital has been firmly controlled by the Qiyin Sect for many years, with a rich annual income, so she can book the top floor of Penglai Tower, showing her nobility.

Besides wealth, she also has many noble friends.

However, today, she knew nothing about this sudden change and did not receive any news.

Facing such a situation!

Ouyang Ouyang Wenwan was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down, her voice trembling slightly:

"Please punish the Demon Master, this change, Ouyang Wenwan failed to detect it in advance, failing the Demon Master's trust."

Huang Dao did not respond immediately, but turned his gaze to Xie Mu and asked:

"What do you think?"

It seems that he handed the power of this decision to Xie Mu.

Xie Mu looked at Ouyang Ouyang Wenwan and wiped his mouth with oil:

"We have lived in the capital for many years, and have received a lot of care from the Qiyin Sect, and we have everything we need for food, clothing, housing, and transportation."

"Eating and living in someone else's house, why are you holding on to it?"

Huang Dao nodded slightly, agreeing: "Makes sense."

Ouyang Ouyang Wenwan felt relieved when she heard this, and hurriedly thanked him, and cast a grateful look at Xie Mu: "Ouyang Wenwan thanks the young master for pleading."

Xie Mu waved his hand, indicating he didn't care.

At this time, Huang Dao's eyes suddenly condensed, his gaze tightly locked on the direction of the Western Depot, as if he had detected some unusual movement.

"How is it possible!"

"It ended so quickly."

Xie Mu only cared about the result, and hurriedly asked:

"How is it?"

Huang Dao closed his eyes and sensed for a while, and cursed.

"Ran away?"

Xie Mu was happy:

"The Junior Guardian ran away, right."

Huang Dao shook his head and said:

"The Foolish Monk ran away."

Xie Mu wondered: "What do you mean, why did the Foolish Monk run, what about Chen Chen Sanzhong and Jiang Jiang Xiaoyue?"

Huang Dao closed his eyes and sensed for a while, and cursed.

"This damn Foolish Monk actually ran towards us!"

"I'm just here to watch the play, I didn't intend to intervene!"

Huang Dao recalled that scene on Mount Zhongnan, Lu Yu's earth-shattering punch, still has lingering fears.

His heart shook.

He quickly said to the woman: "Separate and go!"

After saying that!

Huang Dao grabbed Xie Mu's collar, and the two jumped up from Penglai Pavilion.
