Chapter 293: Regicide Begins
In Shen Yiyi's mind, as long as the main force ambushed in the abandoned farm and there are no problems in the prison, this operation can be said to have more than a 50% chance of success.
The remaining half possibility depends on whether the Tianjing transport airship painted in the style of the royal family of the Riyuan Kingdom can successfully deceive the enemy and land smoothly on the playground of the prison area.
As for other actions, they are just gimmicks to attract the enemy's attention.
However, what Shen Yiyi could not have imagined was that her prison escape attempt and the rebellion of Emperor Macbeth's two sons would actually collide in the Bastille.
Just before the Orange Army launched the attack, the mercenaries from various countries who had secretly sneaked into the city of Xianghe Taida suddenly appeared near the Bastille.
They did not engage in too much disguise, but simply assembled and then launched the attack.
Their goal was very clear, and they completely ignored the prison cells where the prisoners lived. As soon as they appeared, they went straight to the ring area of the Bastille where the fight was in full swing.
Watching these mercenaries of unknown origin and purpose suddenly launch an attack, the three legion commanders of the Orange Army hiding in the dilapidated farm immediately didn't know what to do.
This series of events undoubtedly added countless unknowns and dangers to the originally carefully planned operation.

At this time, if the Orange Army also went out and joined the attack, not to mention whether they would be accepted by the mercenaries, just the coordination would be unfamiliar to each other, and it might even cause a chaotic battle.
But if they don't move now, they won't know what is happening to Shen Yiyi in the prison cell area at this moment.
Especially since this situation occurred before the electronic warfare team launched an attack, it can be said that it really threw the three legion commanders into disarray.
Soon after, small teams that were planning to carry out harassment in the vicinity of Xianghetaida City and the entire Hongluo Island also sent back news one after another.
The summarized information indicated that a huge transport fleet suddenly appeared in the waters outside the island.
After the fleet quickly landed at various ports, main combat forces armed to the teeth emerged from the transport ships.
Many of the tree armors they were driving even had traces of gunpowder smoke on them. They were obviously ace troops with actual combat experience who were withdrawn from Qingshan Island.
Therefore, many harassment attacks on ports had to be canceled immediately.
However, their arrival also achieved the expected purpose, which was to throw Xianghe Taida City into chaos.
Although these troops did not launch any offensive actions against the Orange Army, they all seemed to have their own goals, but the three legion commanders still stopped the main force's planned attack.
In particular, the rear landing troops were advancing rapidly, and a considerable part of them were rapidly approaching the Bastille.
Their presence is enough to change any outcome.
Therefore, after an urgent discussion among the three legion commanders, they could only decide to temporarily suspend the main force's attack until the specific situation became clear.
This made the three legion commanders scratch their heads and couldn't figure out what the various armies of the Riyuan Kingdom should do at this time?
At this time, from the perspective of the third prince Alex, his plan was going very smoothly.
His soldiers carried out the order resolutely, causing a riot in the prison, which gave him the opportunity to send all the heavily armed prison guards, who he had no control over, into the cell block area.
After they went in, the outer door of the prison area was tightly closed. Without his order, no one could leave the strongest, most tightest, most secure cell in the entire Riyuki Kingdom where entry and exit were prohibited.
Most of the jailers had been locked up, and those who remained outside were all dealt with by the Secret Service guards brought by the third prince Alex.
Then, after leaving a small number of his men to be responsible for guarding and communication on the tower, the Third Prince led all the remaining guards and escorts to attack the arena area where his father Macbeth was.
The most critical step in the regicide operation has begun.

The battle started soon.
Because the relationship between the Killing Blade Blood Shadow Army and the Bureau of Secrecy has never been very good, when they saw the Bureau of Secrecy guards arranged in an offensive formation approaching the ring area, they immediately fired warning shots and reported the situation directly to Natalia.
Frankly speaking, Natalia never thought that the third prince Alex would dare to attack his own father.
At first, she just took it for granted that her subordinates had a conflict with the Secret Service guards, or that there was some misunderstanding.
So, after receiving the report, she called Alex immediately.
Alex explained that he had received a secret order from his father, asking him to mobilize all the troops to strengthen the defenses around the ring, so he led his troops to garrison near the ring.
After hearing this answer, Natalia felt a little confused.
Because she knew that this defense work was under her full authority, and Emperor Macbeth's room was not far from her command tower, so there was no reason for him to bypass her to issue such a secret order!
So, Natalia decided to go to Emperor Michael in person to ask for instructions.
While she was hesitating, the outer guard of the Killing Blade Blood Shadow Army was attacked by Alex's men.
These ace troops belonging to the Bureau of Secrets, driving a small number of tree armors, directly formed a triangular attack formation, intending to directly charge into the square in front of the arena that was connected to the prison area.
The Blood Shadow Army, some local troops responsible for defense, and a very small number of prison guards were thrown into chaos at that time.
After dozens of people died, no one even realized what was happening at this time.
You know, this is the most central position of the emperor's guard system, and all the guard formations are set up according to the idea of enemies attacking from the outside. No one could have imagined that someone would attack from the middle position.
Fortunately, the soldiers of the Killing Blade Blood Shadow Army were well-trained. These special forces, composed of the best soldiers among the superiors, immediately launched a counterattack after being suddenly attacked.
In fact, they did not realize at the time that this was a coup. They just relied on their instinct of not wanting to suffer any loss and launched the most fierce counterattack against the secret service soldiers who were rushing towards them with their fangs and claws.
At this moment, the air around the ring area was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the heart-pounding sounds of fighting could be heard from afar.

The exchange of fire between the two sides took place around the largest square outside the arena area.
The terrain here is extremely open, and once the two sides opened fire, the battle entered its most brutal stage.
Large numbers of soldiers fell to the ground like wheat cut by a sickle, and blood splattered all over the ground.
The tree armors on both sides, which were not numerous in number, quickly became entangled with each other.
Because there are no long-range weapons installed on these tree armors, most of them are used for ceremonial purposes. So, these giants that are four or five stories high are seen wrestling with their heads together and arms linked like sumo wrestlers.
Although there is only one squadron of the Killing Blade Blood Shadow Army here to serve as guards, they are elites picked from hundreds or even thousands of miles away.
It was too easy for them to deal with those little Karamis who were only known as the ace troops of the Secret Service.
Especially the several modified Iron General Tree Armors, which were the new main battle tree armors modified by "Qin Xinghe" disguised by Shen Yiyi. They rushed to the front at an extremely high speed, and the ion light blades in their hands, like playing whack-a-mole, cut those opponents who were only wearing light armor into a pool of blood one by one.
Seeing this scene, the soldiers of the Secret Service were stunned. After all, the combat effectiveness of their internal troops could not be compared with those soldiers who fought on the front line all year round.
Soon, the Blood Shadow Army, as the defending side, gained the upper hand. They even launched a counterattack and suddenly penetrated into the Secret Service.
But at this moment, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed.
Suddenly, a mysterious force with unknown origins and no number joined the battle.
