Fu Song

Chapter 291 Chaos (2)

Xiang Hai rode on a horse, pointing his spear obliquely at the ground. Behind him, more than a thousand cavalrymen were also ready to charge.

This time, he thought he might win.

Even if the general opposite him is nearly twenty years younger than him.

Even these people on the opposite side are said to be from the prestigious frontier army.

Two years ago, after Xiao Ding led ten cavalrymen to kill one hundred cavalrymen of the Fourth Army, Xiang Hai, the commander of the Dragon Guard Army, learned from his painful experience and began to rectify the Dragon Guard Army.

Of course, his rectification was different from the general ones. He selected about a thousand people from the tens of thousands of dragon guards. These people got more resources and got more silver rewards.Of course, their training is also more difficult. Unlike the previous practice of playing house, this team of more than a thousand people is practicing with real knives and guns.

All the teachings are also experienced veterans who Xiang Hai painstakingly found.

Many accidents caused casualties due to excessive practice intensity and high risk, and even caused some serious troubles, but in the end, Xiang Hai settled these matters with money.

In two years, he consciously trained a strong army.

And now, this army is right behind him.

In the imperial street inside Nanxun Gate, no one dared to step on this wide street casually in the past, but now, two cavalrymen are facing each other with a distance of hundreds of steps.

"Qin Min, surrender, you can't do anything!" Xiang Hai shouted: "In Bianliang City, there are [-] garrisons, and around Bianliang City, there are more than [-] garrisons. The Song Dynasty established the country for hundreds of years. It is not unreasonable that no one dares to rebel, so what if you have one enemy against a hundred, even if you are covered in iron, how many nails can you drive?"

"Whether it will be done or not, let's talk about it!" Qin Min sneered: "No matter how many sheep there are, how can they be the opponents of lions and tigers? Xiang Hai, I would like to advise you to go to His Highness King Jing as soon as possible to help His Highness achieve success. Otherwise, today will be your death day."

Xiang Hai laughed: "It's really ridiculous. Even if His Royal Highness King Jing is successful today, how can you sit firmly in the seat obtained by treason and usurpation? You are the capital of hundreds of states in the Song Dynasty, and countless people with lofty ideals accept this account!" ? Do you think tens of thousands of royal children in this world will accept this account?"

"If that's the case, then come and die!" Qin Min looked up at the sky, stopped talking nonsense, clamped the horse's belly, snarled, and rushed towards the horse.

Almost at the same time Qin Min started his horse, Xiang Hai also raised his gun and moved forward.

The two cavalrymen collided with each other shouting loudly.

A street that is extremely wide for pedestrians is extremely narrow for cavalry, and for charging cavalry, there is no room for dodge. Either kill the enemy in front of you and continue charging until you penetrate the enemy's formation. In order to earn a chance to survive, or be killed by the enemy, there is no third way to go.

On the royal street, blood was sprayed.

Qin Min came out through the formation, his helmet was nowhere to be found, half of one side of the shoulder armor was cut off, and one side of his flesh was cut off, but this injury was not enough to affect his combat effectiveness.

Xiang Hai didn't come out.

In his early fifties, he is finally old.Whether it is strength or reaction speed, it is far behind Qin Min.

If this confrontation was in a wide area, he might still be able to rely on his rich experience to avoid such an ending, but here, at the moment when the two armies meet, the fate is actually doomed.

Or Xiang Hai knew this too, but he couldn't back down.

He didn't think King Jing could succeed, relying on thousands of frontier troops, he might be able to turn Bianliang upside down, but as long as he couldn't catch the officials, everything would be in vain.

But from the envoy who sent the order, Xiang Hai judged that the news that King Jing was about to rebel had already been discovered by the officials, and the reason why he had to wait until now was probably because he had to be fully accused of King Jing before he could do it.

King Jing's prestige among the people is too high, especially in the current situation of Hebei's great defeat, the people are more convinced and respectful of King Jing. You can't beat it straight.

Therefore, King Jing can only make mistakes.

Since everything is under the control of the officials, how can King Jing win?

Everything must be arranged, but I don't know it.

Or, this is because the officials are too dissatisfied with people like themselves, so they want to take this opportunity to clean up a group of people.

After all, in the past two years, the officials of the Fourth Army have lost face again and again, and it is almost impossible to pick them up when they fall to the ground.

Maybe someone will defect to King Jing, maybe someone will die in battle.

The encounters of the two kinds of people after the war will naturally be completely different.

Xiang Hai would rather choose the latter.

After such a big cleansing, he was dead, but his death could bring new hope to the family.But if you really want to vote for King Jing, it will be completely over, and you will be uprooted after the battle.

Maybe die, maybe there are still some chances to win.

When charging, Xiang Hai still had hope.

Until Qin Min's knife wiped his neck, when he fell heavily off the horse.

It still doesn't work.

old!

Xiang Hai's heart was full of regrets.

Xiang Hai's death made the elite cavalry of more than a thousand cavalry immediately lose their positions.

A hedge, more than a hundred of them fell headfirst, but dozens of Qin Min's subordinates also died.

In terms of numbers, the Dragon Guards still accounted for an absolute majority.

But Xiang Hai's death was a heavy blow to Long Weijun.

What's more, their reaction is still not as good as these frontier soldiers.

The frontier soldiers who came out of the formation did not stop at all. They slammed their horses together, and the horses stood up with a long hiss, and then spun half a circle suddenly, and turned around on the spot.

Then, they charged towards the Dragon Guards in front again.

This time, it was no longer a hedge.

It is one party chasing the other party's ass to watch.

Long Weijun never had a chance to look back.

Apart from fleeing, they didn't have any chance.

Long Weijun has a deep understanding of what it means to hold back a song.

Are they bad?

At least for now, they're really not bad.

But there is a difference in chess, and hands and feet are tied.

The gap between masters is just between this line.

Most of the southern city has been completely plunged into chaos.

Dongcheng, Xiao Mansion.

Xiao Yu, who was in the study, was restless, turning around in the study, and suddenly stopped in front of Xu Wuyan, and said sharply: "His Royal Highness, how could you do such a rebellious thing? It's impossible. !"

"Bachelor, the south city is already in chaos." Xu Wuyan said, "I'm afraid that the disturbance will soon spread to the east city. His Royal Highness King Jing's troops are not enough, and the only troops he can really use are five or six thousand frontier troops. , the other Bianliang garrisons, he can't order them. But as far as I know, His Highness has already controlled those people in the underground world of Bianliang. All kinds of riots are used to confuse and restrain the garrison in this place in the east city and north city."

Xiao Yu clenched his fists and his face looked a bit ferocious.

"Bachelor, if the garrisons in Dongcheng, Beicheng and other places can't gather together to help, but like adding lamp oil, if they go one at a time, then His Royal Highness King Jing really has a chance. These reinforcements, I'm afraid they will be defeated by the frontier soldiers separately, and even drive them to attack the inner city." Xu Wuyan said.

After listening to Xu Wuyan's words, Xiao Yu suddenly walked towards the door.

"Bachelor, where are you going?" Xu Wuyan asked.

"I'm going to find His Royal Highness King Jing. At this time, I rein in the precipice and stop before I make a big mistake. There may be a chance to recover the matter!" Xiao Yu said.

"Bachelor, there is no turning back when you open the bow!" Xu Wuyan took Xiao Yu's hand and said, "As it is now, even if King Jing stops, so what? Death may be avoided, but confinement is inevitable. In the end, King Jing, do you really want to do this? For him, if he really wants to fall into this situation, fearing death is the better choice, right?"

"As long as you're alive, there's always a chance."

"Bachelor, at this moment, we really can't get involved. Once you appear beside King Jing, you won't be able to wash away even if you jump into the Yellow River." Xu Wuyan said.

Xiao Yu immediately hesitated.

At this moment, there was a loud commotion outside, and Xiao Yu strode out of the study, only to see a servant rushing towards him: "Bachelor, bachelor, hundreds of people suddenly came from outside. People, they entered over the wall, the family can't stand it anymore, you and the eldest lady get out of here quickly!"

Xu Wuyan was furious: "How dare they attack Xiao's mansion? Are they here from the Sun Family Gang?"

"The one in the lead said his name was Hong Yuan!" said the servant.

Hong Yuan!

Xiao Yu couldn't help but gasped.

They must be members of the Sun Family Gang. Only they know how to reach the vicinity of the Xiao Mansion silently from under the ground, and then launch a sudden attack. Xu Wuyan feels extremely hated at this moment. He kept Xiao Yu from going to King Jing, but forgot that King Jing would never let Xiao Yu go.

The noise became even worse, and then Xu Wuyan watched as dozens of servants were forced to retreat step by step. In front of them, hundreds of people with knives, guns and sticks pressed forward step by step. These people were actually wearing armor and armor. But that look and gait did not look like a soldier at all.

Who is the leader, not Hong Yuan?
"Hongyuan dog thief, you instigated His Royal Highness King Jing to do such a rebellious thing, you really deserve to die!" Xiao Yu was furious, and he strode forward without fear of the chaos in front of him.

"Old man Wu, don't dare to talk nonsense again, be careful that grandpa knocks your teeth off!" A man with tattoos on half of his face wanted to please Hong Yuan, pointing a knife at Xiao Yu and yelling.

Before the words fell to the ground, Hong Yuan slapped him with his backhand. The force of this slap was so strong that the man's mouth was covered with blood, and he even spit out two teeth.

"Xiao Xiang, don't care about these vulgar people. There is chaos in the city today, and there are disorderly soldiers everywhere. His Royal Highness King Jing is afraid that you may make a mistake, so let me invite you to take refuge in King Jing."

"What if the old man doesn't go?" Xiao Yu said angrily.

"Xiao Xiang, these people are all gangsters and there are no rules. If you make things difficult for me, Xiao Xiang, I can only be sorry that you have to use force. If it disturbs the family members of the mansion, it will be bad." Hong Yuan said with a smile.

"Dog thief dare!" Xu Wuyan said angrily, "Aren't you afraid that Da Lang Erlang will skin you in the future?"

"The eldest son of the Xiao family, Erlang, is the best in the world! Hong knows it well!" Hong Yuan said with a smile: "But even if I have to be skinned by the two young masters, it is a matter of the future. Now, please invite Xiao to accompany me." .”

Xiao Yu let out a long sigh, and said dejectedly: "Thanks to the fact that I have been supporting King Jing all these years, why did he not hesitate to contradict the officials several times, why did he treat me like this today?"

"Xiao Xiang, help people to the end, send the Buddha to the west!" Hong Yuan said: "When King Jing becomes an official family, the Xiao family will definitely become the most noble family in the world. They are relatives of the emperor. The word Xiao family has to be avoided by three points."

Staring at Hong Yuan and the men behind him for a while, Xiao Yu shook his head and said to Xu Wuyan: "At home, protect Madam and Third Lady."

Xu Wuyan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and nodded after a long while.

"Xiao Xiang, don't worry, I will send people to guard Xiao's mansion, so that no one will disturb Madam and Third Lady!" Hong Yuan said with a smile.

The riots in Dongcheng are expanding bit by bit.

Groups of men suddenly came out of nowhere. It is not surprising that these people are carrying swords, guns and sticks, but the bows and crossbows and other things in the hands of others let people know that something is wrong, and these people Some wore helmets, and some wore armor. It seemed ridiculous that a set of armor was worn separately on several people, but when they thought about the things behind it, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill down their backs.

Because in the Song Dynasty, swords and guns were not allowed, but bows and crossbows were banned. As for armor, if anyone hides a few sets in the house, he will bring about a disaster for himself.

But now, these prohibited items are being worn on the body and held in the hands in a grandiose manner.

What about Wang Fa?
Wang Fa is no longer there.

Someone smashed open the shop facing the street and broke in, and then there were screams and fights in the house, and when the knife-wielding man ran out with a bloody knife, black smoke was already rising from the house.

The patrolling soldiers rushed out in a hurry, but when they saw the mob rushing towards them, they turned around and ran away.

Beating, smashing, killing and burning, rape and looting, these dirty things are accompanied by riots.

If the chaos in Nancheng was caused by an organized and disciplined army, and the two sides fighting were only trapped by soldiers, and ordinary people could survive as long as they honestly hid at home, then ordinary people in Dongcheng would suffer. of the common people.

Unlike Nancheng where most of the emperor's relatives and high-ranking officials live, Dongcheng's residents are mostly wealthy businessmen because of the extremely developed commerce.

However, many years of savings have been destroyed today.
