Chapter 176 The Murderous Emperor Zhu【Request】
Chapter 176 The Murderous Emperor Zhu【Request】
This cry exploded in the night sky like a thunderbolt. Zhu Houzhao couldn't help feeling a little desperate when he saw the guards of the imperial city around him dying one by one in order to resist the attack of the rebels.
But this came suddenly, and his extremely familiar shout made Zhu Houzhao's eyes light up, and he suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
With a glance, in the distance, with the light of the torch, a very familiar figure was riding a war horse, crashing headlong into those rebels like a god of death.
With the swing of the iron rod in Li Huan's hand, all the rebel soldiers who stood in front of Li Huan were swept away, and there was not a single standing rebel within a radius of one foot. .
Such a horrific scene only made the surrounding rebel soldiers terrified, and they didn't dare to step forward at all, for fear of being swept away by Li Huan with a stick, and would be blown up like those comrades.
Qiu Ju, Gao Feng, Luo Xiang, Wei Bin and others who had been guarding Zhu Houzhao's side all heard Li Huan's shout, and their eyes were full of excitement when they saw Li Huan, who seemed to have fallen from the sky, leading someone to rescue him. color.
Qiu Ju said to Zhu Houzhao with an even more excited expression, "Your Majesty, it's Brother Li, it's Brother Li who's here!"
Gao Feng couldn't help sweeping away a rebel, and said with a excited smile: "Hahaha, Brother Li is here, we are saved, we are saved!"
Zhu Houzhao was wearing armor at this time, and he looked like a heroic general. Under the protection of Qiuju and a few people, he didn't suffer any harm. shoot.
It's just that the previous situation was too dangerous, which made Zhu Houzhao despair.
But at this moment, as Li Huan brought people to kill, he directly disrupted the rebel team from the rear, and Li Huan's killing like a god killed the rebels, and it was relieved all of a sudden. Zhu Houzhao and the pressure they are facing.
At this moment, Zhu Houzhao let out a sigh of relief, looking at the blood-stained figure that was getting closer and closer among the rebels, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and said softly: "Yes, Li Qing is here, so I can worry-free!"
After killing through the rebel team, there were only dozens of Jin Yiwei who followed Li Huan, all of them were covered in blood, full of murderous aura, which made one's heart palpitate.
He suddenly reined in the horses under him, and following Li Huan's killing, the rebels who had been besieging Zhu Houzhao and others were now also suppressed by Li Huan's murderous aura, and they were too frightened to go forward.
Standing on the horse, when Li Huan saw Zhu Houzhao in armor, he was stunned for a moment, and then secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The emperor was fine, and he was not late at last.
It's true that people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. I'm afraid that no one would have thought that there would be such a change. Fortunately, the emperor is safe and sound, otherwise, he can only find a way to kill the capital and flee for his life.
"Your Majesty, I am late!"
Zhu Houzhao laughed loudly and said, "It's not too late, it's not too late, the Qing family came just in time."
When Zhu Houzhao saw Wang Yangming, who was also covered in blood, who was following behind Li Huan, he couldn't help but let go of his heart and said, "Wang Aiqing is fine, I'm really afraid that something might happen to you."
Wang Yangming paid homage to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your blessings. Fortunately, Master Li led someone to kill him in time, and just in time saved the subject, so the subject will be fine."
While speaking, the sound of a large group of people coming from a distance, Li Huan and Wang Yangming's expressions were awe-inspiring when they heard the movement.
Li Huan immediately said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the rebels will be killed soon. I will protect you and go to find the valley. With the Tengxiang Four Guards, we can deal with these rebels."
Zhu Houzhao originally had such an idea and asked him to go to Beijing Ying. To be honest, if it was before, Zhu Houzhao was very relieved of Jingying.
But now the rebellion is a battalion of soldiers and horses from the Beijing camp, so how dare he, the emperor, go to the Beijing camp again.
The British Duke Zhang Mao may have no problems, but who can guarantee that there are no problems with the commanders of the Beijing camp?
So Zhu Houzhao almost instinctively chose to go to the Four Guards Camp in Tengxiang.
In any case, compared to the fact that the army of the Beijing camp was infiltrated by the civilian group like a sieve, the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp was relatively pure and credible.
In the past few years, Gu Dayong has been in charge of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and he has put a lot of thought into the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp. At least he has placed his confidants in many positions, and has taken the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp into his hands.
Normally, you can't see anything, but at a critical moment, this kind of control over your soldiers and horses is particularly important.
Looking in the direction where the rebels were chasing behind him, Li Huan said to Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty, let's go!"
Just when Li Huan led people to protect Zhu Houzhao and ran towards the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp, the originally peaceful capital was broken by the sudden cry of killing.
The people in the capital have already adapted to the fact that Li Huan led Jin Yiwei's men to kill people along the long street during the day.
It's just that in comparison, Li Huan led people to kill soldiers and horses, and the movement of attacking the imperial city was much smaller. After all, it was only a conflict of a few hundred people.
That little movement would not cause any major impact, but Changxing Marquis Feng Hai and Fei Hong led a large army to attack the imperial city, chasing and killing the emperor Luanjia, it was a team of thousands of people.
Even if thousands of people act casually, there will be no small movement, let alone killing endlessly.
Faced with this situation at this moment, almost all the people in the capital stayed at home obediently, and no one would run out to seek death at this moment.
Compared with these ordinary people, the dignitaries and noble families in the city were the most shocked.
Some people with sensitive news received the news not long after Feng Hai brought people into the city, but many people didn't react for a while after receiving the news, and they didn't know what was going on.
Some officials even subconsciously thought that this was the emperor's deployment of troops into the city late at night to protect the imperial city.
After all, there was a precedent for the emperor to be assassinated once, and it is not impossible to mobilize a large army of guards without any sense of security.
Some dignitaries quietly sent capable servants at home to inquire about the news. After all, there was such a big commotion, and they were quite uncertain. If they could know what happened, they should be mentally prepared.
The mansion of Chief Assistant Li Dongyang doesn't look very luxurious, it's just a well-regulated mansion.
Not long ago when he returned to the mansion from the imperial city, Li Dongyang was almost exhausted. He simply drank some porridge and lay down on the bed to rest.
After all, people are in the imperial city these days, and most of the time they don't get a good rest. For a 70-[-]-year-old man, when he relaxes all of a sudden, he will feel tired.
Seeing that the emperor woke up from the coma, the overall situation was settled, and a big stone in his heart was put down, Li Dongyang felt that he could finally have a good night's sleep.
As for what will happen after dawn, we have to wait until after dawn.
It's just that Li Dongyang just lay down and was still in a daze before falling asleep, when he vaguely heard movement from outside.
Outside the bedroom, Li Dongyang's son, Li Ling, was frowning and looking at the servant in front of him, and said, "What happened? You are in such a panic. Father just rested. If there is nothing important, don't bother him." it is good."
Li Ling had seen Li Dongyang's exhausted posture, and knew that what his father needed at this moment was a quiet rest and a good night's sleep.
But after a while, someone came to report something important to his father.
The servant looked at Li Ling, and said in a low voice, "Second Young Master, something is wrong. Just now there was news from the yamen that Marquis Changxing had entered the city with nearly ten thousand soldiers from the Xiaoyong camp."
Li Ling subconsciously said: "Then what's the matter, will such things alarm father..."
But soon Li Ling couldn't help opening his eyes wide, and exclaimed, "What? Feng Hai has brought nearly ten thousand troops into the city at this time?"
The servant nodded.
Li Ling's face was full of horror. He was born in a family of officials and officials, and his father was the chief assistant on the spot. No matter how slow his reaction was, he could still realize that it was not normal for a large army to enter the city at this time.
At this time, Li Dongyang's voice came from the room: "What's the matter?"
Li Ling took a deep breath, quickly pushed the door open, walked into the bedroom, looked at his father with gray hair and tired face, took a deep breath and said: "Father, the news sent by someone from the yamen just now, Changxing Hou Fenghai, he..."
Li Dongyang was bending over to put on his official boots, when he heard the words, he said, "Oh, what's wrong with Marquis Changxing?"
Gritting his teeth, Li Ling looked at Li Dongyang with some worry and said in a trembling voice, "Marquis of Changxing, Feng Hai, led his troops into the city and headed towards the imperial city."
Li Dongyang, who was trying his best to lift up an official boot, suddenly seemed to be touched by someone's acupuncture points, and a look of shock and anger appeared on his tired face.
The official boot in his hand fell to the ground, and his body swayed. If Li Ling hadn't caught it quickly with his sharp eyes and hands, Li Dongyang might have fallen down in a fit of rage.
After a breath of relief, Li Dongyang couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and wept silently: "What do they want to do, what do they want to do! Do you have to force His Majesty to kill to be satisfied?"
Li Ling looked at Li Dongyang worriedly and said, "Father..."
But soon Li Dongyang cheered up and said to Li Ling, "Quick, change clothes for my father. I'm going to the imperial city. Your Majesty may still be in the imperial city. I'm going to stop Marquis Changxing..."
Li Ling was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly: "But father, Marquis Changxing and the others are already crazy. If you go there, I'm afraid you will..."
Li Dongyang took a deep breath, and said with firm eyes: "My father is the head of a country, and such a heinous disaster happened. My crime is unforgivable, and I can only die to repay Your Majesty's kindness."
British government
Originally, after returning to the mansion from the imperial city, Zhang Mao was going to go to the capital camp to sit in town after eating in the mansion. He had been planning to stay in the capital camp for the past few days.
After all, the emperor handed over the Beijing camp to him to watch, so he couldn't live up to the emperor's hope.
You just need to get through this period of time, and when the matter is over and people's hearts are calm, you don't have to worry about any troubles in the capital camp.
It's just that Zhang Mao was not worried about any troubles in the Beijing camp.
It has been so many years, that is, the change of seizing the gate back then. Someone in Beijing camp led troops to seize the palace gate, controlled the imperial city, and helped Yingzong regain the throne.
But that also happened when Emperor Daizong was critically ill and lost control of the court.
Other than that, there really hasn't been any trouble in Jingying over the years.
With a bang, the door of the mansion was knocked open by a general.
This sudden movement directly startled the British Duke Zhang Mao, who was about to lead the British government's personal soldiers to the Beijing camp to sit in charge.
With a splash, these soldiers of the British government saw someone breaking in, and almost instinctively drew their swords in front of the British prince.
With a plop, the low-level general fell to his knees and cried to Zhang Mao: "Old Duke, something is wrong."
Looking at the general who was kneeling on the ground, Zhang Mao only felt that the other party was somewhat familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who the other party was.
Frowning, Zhang Mao said to the general: "Who is under your command, and you came to see me in such a hurry, what happened?"
The general kowtowed and said: "The last general is Ding Zhao, a small banner officer in the Jingying Xiaoyong Camp, who used to serve under the account of the old Duke, and was later assigned to the Xiaoyong Camp with the blessing of the old Duke. "
Zhang Mao seemed to have an impression, nodded slightly and said, "Then you are?"
Ding Zhao looked at Zhang Mao and said in a trembling voice: "Old Duke, something is wrong. Marquis Feng Hai of Changxing led the Xiaoyong Battalion into Beijing overnight and headed towards the imperial city. The little one sneaked away while Feng Hai and the others were not paying attention. Come out to see the Duke."
Hearing this, Zhang Mao's whole body shook, and his eyes turned black. If it wasn't for the generals around him who supported him, Zhang Mao would have fallen to the ground immediately.
"Old Duke, Old Duke..."
Zhang Lun, who was seeing his grandfather off, hurriedly turned around when he heard the commotion, and when he came over, he happened to hear what Ding Zhao said.
Zhang Lun's expression changed drastically, and he stepped forward quickly, just in time to see his grandfather's face was pale, and his eyes were full of fear and anger.
Suddenly, Zhang Mao was filled with anger, and said angrily: "Feng Hai, I will kill you even if I risk my life."
As he said that, Zhang Mao said to Zhang Lun: "Lun'er, you immediately took your grandfather's seal and went..."
Speaking of this, Zhang Mao couldn't help frowning. He originally wanted to let Zhang Lun go to the Beijing camp to transfer troops, but he thought that without the writing of the Ministry of War and the printing of the cabinet, there would be no way to transfer troops, let alone Zhang Lun. Even if he rushed to the Beijing camp in person, he might not be able to mobilize troops into Beijing.
But soon a stern look flashed in Zhang Mao's eyes, and he said viciously: "Lun'er, take all the soldiers and servants in the mansion and escort me to the imperial city."
As he spoke, Zhang Mao continued: "Immediately send people to inform Duke Cheng and Marquis Ningyang, and ask them to take out their family assets and rush to protect His Majesty. Nothing can happen to His Majesty, and Daming cannot be chaotic."
While speaking, Zhang Mao strode out of the mansion gate, took the reins of the war horse from the general beside him, immediately got on the horse, pulled off the horse abruptly, and headed straight for the Beijing camp.
Seeing this, Zhang Lun stomped his feet and yelled at some generals: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and protect grandpa. If something happens, your heads will be chopped off."
Immediately, a part of the family will quickly mount their horses and follow Zhang Mao.
But Zhang Lun shouted: "Hurry up, gather all the family servants in the mansion, and follow me to escort."
Here Zhang Mao rushed all the way straight into the Beijing camp.
For the [-]th Regimental Battalion, Zhang Mao didn't go to other places, but rushed to the Siyong Camp, which was Zhang Mao's most influential regiment camp.
For the other regiments, Zhang Mao could not be transferred even if he was the Duke of the state.
But the Four Bravery Battalions can give it a try. Of course, it is very difficult to transfer troops into the city.
When Zhang Mao went straight to the Siyong Camp garrison, in the middle of the night, when a group of officers were woken up by the soldiers and rushed to the commander's tent one by one cursing, Zhang Mao was talking to a white-faced eunuch and supervising army.
This supervising army is naturally a person who represents the emperor and sits in the army. It seems that there is not much sense of existence, but the power is scary.
Zhang Mao doesn't have any official documents for troop deployment, so in this case, he must first convince the supervising army, and then all the generals, otherwise, even if Zhang Mao has great abilities, it will be very difficult. How many people were taken away.
Cheng Wei pointed at Zhang Mao in a sharp voice: "Old Duke, our family respects you as the current Duke, but you don't have an edict from the emperor, and you don't have a document from the Ministry of War. Is it your brain that is broken, or our family's brain is broken."
If it were to do other things, facing Zhang Mao, Cheng Wei would not dare to talk to Zhang Mao like this even if he was the supervisor of the army, but who made what Zhang Mao said was too shocking.
Want to mobilize the army to enter the city, what do you want to do, bring everyone together to find death?
Cheng Wei hasn't lived enough yet. If he really agrees to Zhang Mao, then he will be dragged out by the emperor to be hacked into pieces.
His duty is to keep an eye on the army for the emperor, and no one should move lightly if there is no will.
Zhang Mao said angrily at Cheng Wei: "Cheng Wei, listen carefully, Changxing Marquis Feng Hai has turned against him, and he has already brought Xiaoyongying into the city. If I go late, I'm afraid Your Majesty..."
Several lieutenant generals hurried over, and when they entered the tent, they saw Cheng Wei arguing with the British Duke Zhang Mao.
After listening to a few words, these generals understood what was going on.
I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but the more I listened, the more cold sweat on everyone's foreheads.
One was stunned by the news of Marquis Changxing's rebellion, and the other was that Zhang Mao's move to transfer troops to Beijing frightened them.
Even if the Marquis of Changxing rebelled, they would not be able to leave the station, let alone enter Beijing, if there were no written instructions for dispatching troops or the imperial decree of the emperor.
At this time, almost all the generals in the army arrived, and one by one looked at the angry Zhang Mao, pointed at Cheng Wei and cursed: "Cheng Wei, it's no use for His Majesty to trust you so much and let you supervise the army. Now His Majesty is in trouble, you Are you going to sit back and watch?"
Cheng Wei also said: "Our family is loyal to His Majesty, that's why you, old Duke, are not allowed to send troops into the city. Otherwise, our family will have failed His Majesty's trust."
Whether it is from Cheng Wei's standpoint or Zhang Mao's standpoint, there is nothing wrong with the two of them.
One is eager to bring soldiers and horses to Beijing to rescue him, and the other is not at ease with anyone who transfers troops without authorization, and resolutely fulfills his duties to help the emperor look after the soldiers and horses.
Zhang Mao pulled out the sword at his waist abruptly. Under Cheng Wei's astonished eyes, he put the long sword between Cheng Wei's neck and said, "Come on, tie him up for me!"
Cheng Wei reacted and couldn't help being furious, and said to Britain: "Zhang Mao, if you want to rebel, you won't succeed. Our family is the supervisor of the army, you..."
Zhang Mao directly ordered someone to gag Cheng Wei's mouth, and then several soldiers quickly tied up Cheng Wei.
At this time, Zhang Mao stared at the generals in the big tent and shouted: "Listen to me, the Marquis of Changxing rebelled, and His Majesty is in trouble. I and my subjects should die for His Majesty. Today, I risk the world It’s too bad to force everyone to send troops with me, and if the court pursues it afterwards, I will bear it alone.”
As he spoke, Zhang Mao's eyes full of murderous intent swept across the generals, and everyone who was seen by Zhang Mao lowered their heads and did not dare to speak up to object.
Anyone can see that Zhang Mao has made up his mind to lead troops into Beijing, and even Cheng Wei, the military supervisor who opposed it, has been taken down. If anyone of them dares to stand up at this time, it may be possible Will be killed by Zhang Mao and shock people's hearts.
Seeing the reaction of all the generals, Zhang Mao shouted: "Since you have no objection, then bring me soldiers and horses, and go to Beijing to escort me."
The Tengxiang Four Guards camp was located some distance away from the imperial city. Under the protection of Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao and others ran wildly all the way, while Feng Hai led the soldiers and horses of the Xiaoyong battalion in pursuit.
The distance between the original army and Li Huan and the others gradually widened. After all, Li Huan and the others were on horseback, but there were only a handful of soldiers with horses in Xiaoyong Camp.
The ones who could really catch up were the hundreds of cavalry with Feng Hai as the core, but the number of hundreds was quite a lot, at least several times that of Li Huan and the others.
Coupled with the fact that these cavalrymen armed with strong crossbows and firecrackers attacked from the rear from time to time, Li Huan and others could only keep rushing towards the Tengxiang Four Guards camp.
Tengxiang Four Guards Battalion
Gu Dayong left the palace and did not go back to the Yumajian Yamen, but came directly to the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp.
It was because of the previous experience that Gu Dayong felt too insecure, and subconsciously wanted to stay in the barracks.
In the dead of night, Gu Dayong had already rested early, he hadn't had a good night's sleep these days, and now that the day is fine, he can also have a good rest.
Just as soon as he fell asleep, a little eunuch hurried over and shouted at Gu Dayong: "Director, Chief, quick, quick, Your Majesty is coming!"
Sleeping in a daze, Gu Dayong vaguely heard the word Your Majesty, and sat up directly from the bed, then reacted, stared at the little eunuch and said, "Your Majesty? Where is Your Majesty?"
The little eunuch said tremblingly: "Your Majesty is being hunted down and will arrive at the camp soon. Please hurry up and bring someone to greet you."
Gu Dayong jumped up from the bed, his face was full of horror, he didn't even care about wearing his shoes, he ran out of the room with bare feet and shouted: "Come here, come here, give me a beating!" Gather soldiers."
Accompanied by Gu Dayong's order, the originally silent Tengxiang Zuowei camp was broken by the sound of drums, and a large number of soldiers began to wake up from their sleep, and then went to the school grounds to gather cursingly and instinctively.
The Four Guards of Tengxiang are divided into the Left Guard of Tengxiang, the Right Guard of Tengxiang, the Left Guard of Wuxiang, and the Right Guard of Wuxiang. These four battalions are collectively called the Four Guards of Tengxiang.
The Tengxiang Zuowei is the most effective battalion of the Tengxiang Four Guards, so Gu Dayong stayed overnight at the Tengxiang Zuowei. Naturally, the Tengxiang Zuowei was summoned at this time.
Tengxiang Zuowei has about [-] elite soldiers, all of whom are warriors selected from among the best in the army. Compared with the Beijing camp, they are definitely considered elite.
Even so, if it is really necessary to wait until all the soldiers of Tengxiang Zuowei gather to return, it may be impossible without half an hour.
At this moment, Gu Dayong had already ordered Qi Xianguo, the commander of the Tengxiang left guard, to order the first thousand soldiers and horses to go with him, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were handed over to the deputy commander.
Feng Hai led hundreds of elite men to chase after him from a distance, his eyes full of madness.
Whether it's Feng Hai or Fei Hong, they all know that Tianzi and his party are heading to the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp.
If the emperor and others were allowed to enter the camp, even if all the soldiers and horses under him were willing to fight for him, they would not be able to break through the camp of the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp, let alone hold the emperor in his hands.
"Chasing, chasing for Lord Benhou. If you catch those people, Lord Benhou will give you a lot of rewards."
At first, these soldiers didn't even know that the target they attacked was the Emperor Luanjia, but after they knew it, they had already boarded the pirate ship, and it was too late even if they wanted to regret it.
The hundreds of people following Feng Hai now can be said to be the people in the entire Xiaoyong camp who are willing to follow Feng Hai all the way to the dark and fight for it.
After all, what they are guilty of is treason. Even if they choose to put down their weapons and surrender at this time, it may be a dead end. It is better to follow Feng Hai and Fei Hong's encouragement, and maybe they can become a Conglong What about the minister?
From a distance, you can already see the outline of the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp, and you can even see the dancing flames in the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp. It is obvious that the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp may have gotten the news and is gathering troops and horses .
Feng Hai and Fei Hong looked at each other, with a faint hint of despair in their eyes.
But Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao and others had already rushed to the gate of the camp. At this time, the entrance of the camp was being blocked by horses, and several soldiers guarding the gate looked at the cavalry roaring in horror.
Li Huan shouted loudly: "Quickly open the camp gate!"
At this time, Gu Dayong was rushing over with his commander Qi Xianguo and a group of soldiers, and heard Li Huan's shout from a distance.
Gu Dayong was extremely worried about the safety of the emperor, but suddenly he heard Li Huan's cry, knowing that if Li Huan was with the emperor, then the emperor would be fine, and he was relieved all of a sudden.
"Open the camp gate!"
Gu Dayong shouted loudly.
It's just that the soldiers guarding the camp gate didn't know Gu Dayong at all, even if Gu Dayong spoke, these soldiers subconsciously looked at their superiors.
The little flag officer in the army saw Gu Dayong from a distance, and immediately shouted at the soldiers under him, and soon dozens of soldiers stepped forward, and soon moved the rejecting horse to the side to reveal a channel to.
At this time, Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao and the others also came close, and when they saw the gate of the camp open, they felt relieved and rushed directly into the camp.
Feng Hai, who had already chased after him, couldn't help but roared unwillingly when he saw this scene, his eyes were full of madness, he stared at the emperor's back, and shouted suddenly: "All soldiers, follow me in."
This shout only calmed down those soldiers who followed Feng Hai, but when they saw Feng Hai charging into the camp, these soldiers also showed crazy looks one by one, and rushed in after Feng Hai.
Hundreds of people actually directly attacked the camp. Feng Hai is really crazy. His bet is to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp and rush into the camp to catch the emperor. Otherwise, if he misses After taking this last chance, the next thing waiting for them is the thunderous suppression of the imperial army.
The moment Li Huan rushed into the camp, Li Huan reined in his horse and yelled loudly. There were only 30 or [-] Jinyiwei left and dozens of imperial city guards. Blocked the gate of the camp.
Li Huan exhaled foul breath, looked at Feng Hai who was roaring towards him, with a bit of disdain in his eyes.
The emperor rushed into the camp, and Gu Dayong led people to greet him quickly, and he let out a sigh of relief seeing that the emperor in armor was safe and sound.
At this moment, Zhu Houzhao breathed a sigh of relief and looked to the side. He thought that Li Huan was by his side, but when he saw it, he was alone beside him, and there was no one else besides him.
"Li Qing, Li Qing!"
Zhu Houzhao panicked, shouted a few times subconsciously, and looked back, just in time to see the figure riding on a war horse at the gate of the camp, turning around and rushing towards the rebels.
At this moment, Gu Dayong noticed Zhu Houzhao's expression and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Brother Li Huan is stopping the enemy for His Majesty! Your Majesty, don't worry."
Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on the commander Qi Xianguo, and he immediately shouted: "Hurry up and bring someone to help Li Qing."
Qi Xianguo, who was about to greet the emperor, was taken aback when he heard the words, and then realized that he really didn't expect the emperor and his party to come so fast and in such a hurry, and he was planning to lead the soldiers out of the camp to meet them.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Qi Xianguo to be the commander of the first battalion, so he could not react so slowly. It was the sudden change that stunned him, so that he didn't know how to react.
Who would have thought that in this important place of the capital, someone would dare to mobilize troops to attack the emperor, and even chased and killed the emperor all the way. Until now, Qi Xianguo felt like he was dreaming.
At this time, Qi Xianguo finally came to his senses after being shouted angrily by the emperor. He immediately cupped his hands at the emperor, and shouted at the soldiers behind him: "Soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy."
At this time, at the gate of the camp, led by Li Huan, dozens of Jinyiwei and Huangcheng Suwei ran into Feng Hai and his rebels.
Originally, Feng Hai thought that he could rush into the camp and take advantage of the chaos to disrupt the camp, so he might not have a chance to catch the emperor.
But he didn't expect that Li Huan could escape into the big camp and survive, but after the emperor entered the big camp, he brought those Jinyi guards and imperial city guards to turn around to deal with him.
In this way, Feng Hai's hope was shattered all at once.
Originally, horses stepping into the camp is fast, as long as the speed is fast enough, and the defending soldiers are not given time to rush directly to the camp, hundreds of soldiers and horses are enough to disrupt the camp where thousands of troops are stationed.
It's a pity that Li Huan seemed to have been on guard against this for a long time, so he never gave him a chance to step into the camp.
bang
On one side are hundreds of desperate rebels, just to capture the emperor and gain a chance of life, and on the other side are dozens of loyal people who are desperately fighting for the emperor.
The two sides collided in one place, and screams sounded immediately.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of Shuangfang fell down. Li Huan directly stopped Feng Hai, and even knocked off the horse under Feng Hai. If Feng Hai hadn't jumped in time to dodge, he might have been blown up. The one with the head is not the horse under him, but himself.
Leaping onto the horse of a soldier behind him, Feng Hai stared at Li Huan full of apprehension, and roared angrily, "Qiangnu, shoot him to death."
In that wave of powerful crossbows just now, some of the arrows locked on Li Huan, and Li Huan didn't dodge or dodge. After receiving those arrows, I have to say that Li Huan's actions completely exceeded Feng Hai's expectations. If that was the case, he wouldn't have been almost killed by Li Huan on the spot.
After all, no matter how much Feng Hai overestimated Li Huan's strength, he still couldn't believe that Li Huan could resist the powerful crossbow with his indestructible golden body.
You must know that at least half of the arrows in that wave of arrows came towards Li Huan. Even the horse under Li Huan was shot into a hedgehog, but Li Huan was unscathed, and even blew up the horse under Feng Hai. head off.
At this time Feng Hai gave an order, and dozens of powerful crossbows fired again, and the arrows directly covered Li Huan.
Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but exclaim.
"Li Qing, be careful!"
Even though he saw the scene where Li Huan resisted the arrows with his body just now, Zhu Houzhao also cried out in surprise when he saw dozens of arrows covering Li Huan's body now.
Just a few feet away from Li Huan's side, holding a sword and rolling up sword flowers all over the sky, Yue Buqun and Wang Yangming, who had just blocked the arrows that were shot at them, looked at Li Huan together.
Both of them can be regarded as strong in martial arts, and their internal strength is so strong that they are rare in the world.
But even if they were as strong as them, they would not dare to bear the shooting of the crossbow with their own body.
They really thought that they were indestructible bodies of diamonds. If they were shot by arrows, as long as they were not vital, they would be safe and sound. But being covered by dozens of arrows, in the eyes of the two of them, they would definitely die.
Yue Buqun and Wang Yangming knew that Li Huan's kung fu was at its peak, but they couldn't help but sweat for Li Huan at the moment.
In an instant, all the arrows landed on Li Huan's body. The impact of these arrows was so strong that they directly pierced Li Huan's clothes. Some arrows fell to the ground, while others hung on Li Huan. body, but no one shot into Li Huan's body.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
Even Feng Hai was dumbfounded, his eyes full of disbelief.
"It's impossible, it's impossible..."
Seeing Li Huan standing in front of him unharmed a few feet away, Feng Hai was in a bad mood.
The surviving dozens of Jinyiwei and Huangcheng Suwei also saw the scene of Li Huansheng carrying the arrow and couldn't help but applaud Li Huan loudly.
"My lord is mighty, my lord is mighty!"
Among that group of rebels, Fei Hong, who was dressed in an official uniform, was extremely eye-catching. At this moment, he was also looking at Li Huan, who was completely intact, in horror.
Originally seeing the Son of Heaven fleeing into the camp, Fei Hong felt a little desperate, but he didn't expect that Feng Hai would burst out with such courage at this time, and wanted to rush into the camp.
This made Fei Hong feel hopeful, hoping that Feng Hai could bring him a miracle.
What he didn't expect was that Li Huan didn't follow them into the camp, but chose to stay and stop them.
When he saw Li Huan being shot by the crossbow, Fei Hong clenched his hands tightly, and couldn't help showing a bit of excitement and anticipation in his eyes, hoping to see the scene where Li Huan was shot by the crossbow.
Everything they planned was all because of Li Huan. If it wasn't for Li Huan, the emperor might still be lying in the Jinglan Palace at this moment, and he didn't need to choose such an extreme method with Feng Hai.
Therefore, Fei Hong's hatred for Li Huan could not be washed away even if he exhausted all rivers and lakes, even if he could not capture the emperor this time, but when he was on the verge of failure, he could kill Li Huan, even if he was dead, He has no regrets.
It's a pity that what disappointed Fei Hong was that Li Huan's whole body seemed to be forged from refined iron, and it was hard for him to be hurt by arrows.
"Does the legendary indestructible body of King Kong really exist?"
Fei Hong looked at Li Huan standing there, and couldn't help muttering to himself.
All the rebels were stunned by this scene, and looked at Li Huan standing there like a god in awe.
At this moment, Qi Xianguo, the commander who rushed out with the left guard of Tengxiang, and a group of soldiers also saw the scene where Li Huan showed his might just now.
The soldiers following Qi Xianguo respected Li Huan like a god.
At the same time, Li Huan let out a sigh of relief. You must know that just resisting so many arrows, Li Huan is also uncomfortable, that is, he has cultivated the thirteen Taibao magic skills to the state of being invincible, otherwise, he is really not good. Dare to bear so many arrows.
Even so, if there is a choice, Li Huan does not want to enjoy the treatment of adding arrows to his body again. This is just a wave of arrow rain. If there are a few waves, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it .
"kill!"
Hearing Li Huan's loud shout, he jumped up and appeared in front of Feng Hai, and captured Feng Hai before Feng Hai could react.
"Escape!"
Seeing that Feng Hai was taken down by Li Huan, those rebel soldiers had already been taken away by Li Huan's display of power, and it was obvious that the general situation was over now, and the rebels only hated their legs for being too short , escaped too slowly.
When Qi Xianguo saw this situation, he led his soldiers and horses to rush out without ordering them, chasing and killing the fleeing rebels.
Li Huan glanced at Yue Buqun and shouted: "Yue Baihu, take that Fei Hong to me!"
When Fei Hong saw the scene where Li Huan was invulnerable, he realized that the situation was over, and a flash of determination flashed in his eyes.
Yue Buqun jumped up when he heard the words, and after a few ups and downs, he appeared in front of Fei Hong.
At this time, Fei Hong was surrounded by the rebels, and he was in a terrible state. If it weren't for the fact that the official uniform was a little intimidating to the rebels subconsciously, making the rebels subconsciously avoid the opponent, I'm afraid he would have been captured by now. The rebel army was knocked down and trampled to death.
When Yue Buqun appeared in front of Li Huan carrying Fei Hong, Li Huan just glanced at Fei Hong indifferently, and then walked towards the camp with Changxing Marquis Feng Hai.
Surrounded by Qiu Ju, Gao Feng, Luo Xiang, and Gu Dayong, Zhu Houzhao looked at Li Huan excitedly.
Gu Dayong on the side said with a smile: "Brother Li captured Feng Hai in the chaos, he is really like a famous general in ancient times, and he won the three armies bravely."
Li Huan smiled at Gu Dayong, then turned to Zhu Houzhao seriously: "Your Majesty, the rebels Changxing Marquis Feng Hai and Fei Hong are here, please show Your Majesty how to deal with them."
Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on Changxing Hou Feng Hai and Fei Hong.
Feng Hai's face is full of despair at this moment, where there is no such madness in chasing and killing the emperor before, the whole person seems to have been sucked away.
On the contrary, Fei Hong seemed much calmer than Feng Hailai.
"Feng Hai, I'm not surprised that other people rebelled against me, but if I remember correctly, you are the honorable man of Ming Dynasty who died with the country. Why did you betray me?"
Feng Hai just hung his head and said nothing.
Seeing that Feng Hai had no intention of opening his mouth, Zhu Houzhao didn't ask any more questions, but just snorted coldly and said, "Put him down and interrogate him strictly, and make sure his accomplices are interrogated."
When Zhu Hou looked at Fei Hong, Fei Hong burst out laughing, and gradually a black and blue color appeared on his face.
Seeing this situation, Gu Dayong, Qiu Ju and others subconsciously stood in front of the emperor.
Yue Buqun stepped forward to check almost immediately, and saw black blood flowing from Fei Hong's mouth.
"Hahaha, Fei asked himself that if he couldn't stand the torture, it would be a death penalty. It would be better to know it yourself. It's delusional for you to want to know Fei's accomplices from Fei's mouth."
In just a blink of an eye, Fei Hong's face became more and more black, obviously the poison had already spread in his body.
Zhu Hou looked at Fei Hong even though he wanted to ask more questions, but he opened his mouth, and finally just let out a cold snort: "Decree, Fei Hongmou rebelled, ordered Jin Yiwei to confiscate Fei Hong's family property, wiped out the nine clans , engraved his charges on the stone tablet in his hometown, and announced to the world that in Fei Hong's hometown, the scientific research will be suspended for ten years, as an example to others."
At this time, Fei Hong, who was getting weaker and weaker, didn't react too much when he heard that Zhu Houzhao ransacked his family and exterminated his family. After all, he was already mentally prepared for this when he participated in the conspiracy.
But what he didn't expect was that Zhu Houzhao wanted to engrave his crimes on a stone tablet in his hometown to announce to the world, and even removed his neighbors from the scientific examination for ten years.
Ten years, that is almost a generation. It is conceivable that because of him alone, in the next ten years, there will be countless literati in his hometown and neighbors who will be cut off from the scientific research.
He implicates the whole neighborhood by himself. He thought that he died to eradicate traitors such as Liu Jin and Li Huan. Even if he committed a serious crime of disobedience, he could leave a good name among the scholars in his hometown and pass it on to future generations.
However, this move of the emperor nailed him to the pillar of shame, and even made the literati in his hometown curse him, even if he died, he would not be able to rest in peace.
Murder is just that.
All of a sudden, Fei Hong opened his eyes wide and begged Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty, the responsibility for all the crimes lies with the minister alone. What is my hometown, what is my hometown..."
[The first update is delivered, something is delayed, a little late, but there is still a big chapter tonight, nothing to say, please subscribe, reward, monthly pass! 】
(End of this chapter)
This cry exploded in the night sky like a thunderbolt. Zhu Houzhao couldn't help feeling a little desperate when he saw the guards of the imperial city around him dying one by one in order to resist the attack of the rebels.
But this came suddenly, and his extremely familiar shout made Zhu Houzhao's eyes light up, and he suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
With a glance, in the distance, with the light of the torch, a very familiar figure was riding a war horse, crashing headlong into those rebels like a god of death.
With the swing of the iron rod in Li Huan's hand, all the rebel soldiers who stood in front of Li Huan were swept away, and there was not a single standing rebel within a radius of one foot. .
Such a horrific scene only made the surrounding rebel soldiers terrified, and they didn't dare to step forward at all, for fear of being swept away by Li Huan with a stick, and would be blown up like those comrades.
Qiu Ju, Gao Feng, Luo Xiang, Wei Bin and others who had been guarding Zhu Houzhao's side all heard Li Huan's shout, and their eyes were full of excitement when they saw Li Huan, who seemed to have fallen from the sky, leading someone to rescue him. color.
Qiu Ju said to Zhu Houzhao with an even more excited expression, "Your Majesty, it's Brother Li, it's Brother Li who's here!"
Gao Feng couldn't help sweeping away a rebel, and said with a excited smile: "Hahaha, Brother Li is here, we are saved, we are saved!"
Zhu Houzhao was wearing armor at this time, and he looked like a heroic general. Under the protection of Qiuju and a few people, he didn't suffer any harm. shoot.
It's just that the previous situation was too dangerous, which made Zhu Houzhao despair.
But at this moment, as Li Huan brought people to kill, he directly disrupted the rebel team from the rear, and Li Huan's killing like a god killed the rebels, and it was relieved all of a sudden. Zhu Houzhao and the pressure they are facing.
At this moment, Zhu Houzhao let out a sigh of relief, looking at the blood-stained figure that was getting closer and closer among the rebels, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and said softly: "Yes, Li Qing is here, so I can worry-free!"
After killing through the rebel team, there were only dozens of Jin Yiwei who followed Li Huan, all of them were covered in blood, full of murderous aura, which made one's heart palpitate.
He suddenly reined in the horses under him, and following Li Huan's killing, the rebels who had been besieging Zhu Houzhao and others were now also suppressed by Li Huan's murderous aura, and they were too frightened to go forward.
Standing on the horse, when Li Huan saw Zhu Houzhao in armor, he was stunned for a moment, and then secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The emperor was fine, and he was not late at last.
It's true that people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. I'm afraid that no one would have thought that there would be such a change. Fortunately, the emperor is safe and sound, otherwise, he can only find a way to kill the capital and flee for his life.
"Your Majesty, I am late!"
Zhu Houzhao laughed loudly and said, "It's not too late, it's not too late, the Qing family came just in time."
When Zhu Houzhao saw Wang Yangming, who was also covered in blood, who was following behind Li Huan, he couldn't help but let go of his heart and said, "Wang Aiqing is fine, I'm really afraid that something might happen to you."
Wang Yangming paid homage to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your blessings. Fortunately, Master Li led someone to kill him in time, and just in time saved the subject, so the subject will be fine."
While speaking, the sound of a large group of people coming from a distance, Li Huan and Wang Yangming's expressions were awe-inspiring when they heard the movement.
Li Huan immediately said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the rebels will be killed soon. I will protect you and go to find the valley. With the Tengxiang Four Guards, we can deal with these rebels."
Zhu Houzhao originally had such an idea and asked him to go to Beijing Ying. To be honest, if it was before, Zhu Houzhao was very relieved of Jingying.
But now the rebellion is a battalion of soldiers and horses from the Beijing camp, so how dare he, the emperor, go to the Beijing camp again.
The British Duke Zhang Mao may have no problems, but who can guarantee that there are no problems with the commanders of the Beijing camp?
So Zhu Houzhao almost instinctively chose to go to the Four Guards Camp in Tengxiang.
In any case, compared to the fact that the army of the Beijing camp was infiltrated by the civilian group like a sieve, the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp was relatively pure and credible.
In the past few years, Gu Dayong has been in charge of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and he has put a lot of thought into the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp. At least he has placed his confidants in many positions, and has taken the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp into his hands.
Normally, you can't see anything, but at a critical moment, this kind of control over your soldiers and horses is particularly important.
Looking in the direction where the rebels were chasing behind him, Li Huan said to Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty, let's go!"
Just when Li Huan led people to protect Zhu Houzhao and ran towards the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp, the originally peaceful capital was broken by the sudden cry of killing.
The people in the capital have already adapted to the fact that Li Huan led Jin Yiwei's men to kill people along the long street during the day.
It's just that in comparison, Li Huan led people to kill soldiers and horses, and the movement of attacking the imperial city was much smaller. After all, it was only a conflict of a few hundred people.
That little movement would not cause any major impact, but Changxing Marquis Feng Hai and Fei Hong led a large army to attack the imperial city, chasing and killing the emperor Luanjia, it was a team of thousands of people.
Even if thousands of people act casually, there will be no small movement, let alone killing endlessly.
Faced with this situation at this moment, almost all the people in the capital stayed at home obediently, and no one would run out to seek death at this moment.
Compared with these ordinary people, the dignitaries and noble families in the city were the most shocked.
Some people with sensitive news received the news not long after Feng Hai brought people into the city, but many people didn't react for a while after receiving the news, and they didn't know what was going on.
Some officials even subconsciously thought that this was the emperor's deployment of troops into the city late at night to protect the imperial city.
After all, there was a precedent for the emperor to be assassinated once, and it is not impossible to mobilize a large army of guards without any sense of security.
Some dignitaries quietly sent capable servants at home to inquire about the news. After all, there was such a big commotion, and they were quite uncertain. If they could know what happened, they should be mentally prepared.
The mansion of Chief Assistant Li Dongyang doesn't look very luxurious, it's just a well-regulated mansion.
Not long ago when he returned to the mansion from the imperial city, Li Dongyang was almost exhausted. He simply drank some porridge and lay down on the bed to rest.
After all, people are in the imperial city these days, and most of the time they don't get a good rest. For a 70-[-]-year-old man, when he relaxes all of a sudden, he will feel tired.
Seeing that the emperor woke up from the coma, the overall situation was settled, and a big stone in his heart was put down, Li Dongyang felt that he could finally have a good night's sleep.
As for what will happen after dawn, we have to wait until after dawn.
It's just that Li Dongyang just lay down and was still in a daze before falling asleep, when he vaguely heard movement from outside.
Outside the bedroom, Li Dongyang's son, Li Ling, was frowning and looking at the servant in front of him, and said, "What happened? You are in such a panic. Father just rested. If there is nothing important, don't bother him." it is good."
Li Ling had seen Li Dongyang's exhausted posture, and knew that what his father needed at this moment was a quiet rest and a good night's sleep.
But after a while, someone came to report something important to his father.
The servant looked at Li Ling, and said in a low voice, "Second Young Master, something is wrong. Just now there was news from the yamen that Marquis Changxing had entered the city with nearly ten thousand soldiers from the Xiaoyong camp."
Li Ling subconsciously said: "Then what's the matter, will such things alarm father..."
But soon Li Ling couldn't help opening his eyes wide, and exclaimed, "What? Feng Hai has brought nearly ten thousand troops into the city at this time?"
The servant nodded.
Li Ling's face was full of horror. He was born in a family of officials and officials, and his father was the chief assistant on the spot. No matter how slow his reaction was, he could still realize that it was not normal for a large army to enter the city at this time.
At this time, Li Dongyang's voice came from the room: "What's the matter?"
Li Ling took a deep breath, quickly pushed the door open, walked into the bedroom, looked at his father with gray hair and tired face, took a deep breath and said: "Father, the news sent by someone from the yamen just now, Changxing Hou Fenghai, he..."
Li Dongyang was bending over to put on his official boots, when he heard the words, he said, "Oh, what's wrong with Marquis Changxing?"
Gritting his teeth, Li Ling looked at Li Dongyang with some worry and said in a trembling voice, "Marquis of Changxing, Feng Hai, led his troops into the city and headed towards the imperial city."
Li Dongyang, who was trying his best to lift up an official boot, suddenly seemed to be touched by someone's acupuncture points, and a look of shock and anger appeared on his tired face.
The official boot in his hand fell to the ground, and his body swayed. If Li Ling hadn't caught it quickly with his sharp eyes and hands, Li Dongyang might have fallen down in a fit of rage.
After a breath of relief, Li Dongyang couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and wept silently: "What do they want to do, what do they want to do! Do you have to force His Majesty to kill to be satisfied?"
Li Ling looked at Li Dongyang worriedly and said, "Father..."
But soon Li Dongyang cheered up and said to Li Ling, "Quick, change clothes for my father. I'm going to the imperial city. Your Majesty may still be in the imperial city. I'm going to stop Marquis Changxing..."
Li Ling was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly: "But father, Marquis Changxing and the others are already crazy. If you go there, I'm afraid you will..."
Li Dongyang took a deep breath, and said with firm eyes: "My father is the head of a country, and such a heinous disaster happened. My crime is unforgivable, and I can only die to repay Your Majesty's kindness."
British government
Originally, after returning to the mansion from the imperial city, Zhang Mao was going to go to the capital camp to sit in town after eating in the mansion. He had been planning to stay in the capital camp for the past few days.
After all, the emperor handed over the Beijing camp to him to watch, so he couldn't live up to the emperor's hope.
You just need to get through this period of time, and when the matter is over and people's hearts are calm, you don't have to worry about any troubles in the capital camp.
It's just that Zhang Mao was not worried about any troubles in the Beijing camp.
It has been so many years, that is, the change of seizing the gate back then. Someone in Beijing camp led troops to seize the palace gate, controlled the imperial city, and helped Yingzong regain the throne.
But that also happened when Emperor Daizong was critically ill and lost control of the court.
Other than that, there really hasn't been any trouble in Jingying over the years.
With a bang, the door of the mansion was knocked open by a general.
This sudden movement directly startled the British Duke Zhang Mao, who was about to lead the British government's personal soldiers to the Beijing camp to sit in charge.
With a splash, these soldiers of the British government saw someone breaking in, and almost instinctively drew their swords in front of the British prince.
With a plop, the low-level general fell to his knees and cried to Zhang Mao: "Old Duke, something is wrong."
Looking at the general who was kneeling on the ground, Zhang Mao only felt that the other party was somewhat familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who the other party was.
Frowning, Zhang Mao said to the general: "Who is under your command, and you came to see me in such a hurry, what happened?"
The general kowtowed and said: "The last general is Ding Zhao, a small banner officer in the Jingying Xiaoyong Camp, who used to serve under the account of the old Duke, and was later assigned to the Xiaoyong Camp with the blessing of the old Duke. "
Zhang Mao seemed to have an impression, nodded slightly and said, "Then you are?"
Ding Zhao looked at Zhang Mao and said in a trembling voice: "Old Duke, something is wrong. Marquis Feng Hai of Changxing led the Xiaoyong Battalion into Beijing overnight and headed towards the imperial city. The little one sneaked away while Feng Hai and the others were not paying attention. Come out to see the Duke."
Hearing this, Zhang Mao's whole body shook, and his eyes turned black. If it wasn't for the generals around him who supported him, Zhang Mao would have fallen to the ground immediately.
"Old Duke, Old Duke..."
Zhang Lun, who was seeing his grandfather off, hurriedly turned around when he heard the commotion, and when he came over, he happened to hear what Ding Zhao said.
Zhang Lun's expression changed drastically, and he stepped forward quickly, just in time to see his grandfather's face was pale, and his eyes were full of fear and anger.
Suddenly, Zhang Mao was filled with anger, and said angrily: "Feng Hai, I will kill you even if I risk my life."
As he said that, Zhang Mao said to Zhang Lun: "Lun'er, you immediately took your grandfather's seal and went..."
Speaking of this, Zhang Mao couldn't help frowning. He originally wanted to let Zhang Lun go to the Beijing camp to transfer troops, but he thought that without the writing of the Ministry of War and the printing of the cabinet, there would be no way to transfer troops, let alone Zhang Lun. Even if he rushed to the Beijing camp in person, he might not be able to mobilize troops into Beijing.
But soon a stern look flashed in Zhang Mao's eyes, and he said viciously: "Lun'er, take all the soldiers and servants in the mansion and escort me to the imperial city."
As he spoke, Zhang Mao continued: "Immediately send people to inform Duke Cheng and Marquis Ningyang, and ask them to take out their family assets and rush to protect His Majesty. Nothing can happen to His Majesty, and Daming cannot be chaotic."
While speaking, Zhang Mao strode out of the mansion gate, took the reins of the war horse from the general beside him, immediately got on the horse, pulled off the horse abruptly, and headed straight for the Beijing camp.
Seeing this, Zhang Lun stomped his feet and yelled at some generals: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and protect grandpa. If something happens, your heads will be chopped off."
Immediately, a part of the family will quickly mount their horses and follow Zhang Mao.
But Zhang Lun shouted: "Hurry up, gather all the family servants in the mansion, and follow me to escort."
Here Zhang Mao rushed all the way straight into the Beijing camp.
For the [-]th Regimental Battalion, Zhang Mao didn't go to other places, but rushed to the Siyong Camp, which was Zhang Mao's most influential regiment camp.
For the other regiments, Zhang Mao could not be transferred even if he was the Duke of the state.
But the Four Bravery Battalions can give it a try. Of course, it is very difficult to transfer troops into the city.
When Zhang Mao went straight to the Siyong Camp garrison, in the middle of the night, when a group of officers were woken up by the soldiers and rushed to the commander's tent one by one cursing, Zhang Mao was talking to a white-faced eunuch and supervising army.
This supervising army is naturally a person who represents the emperor and sits in the army. It seems that there is not much sense of existence, but the power is scary.
Zhang Mao doesn't have any official documents for troop deployment, so in this case, he must first convince the supervising army, and then all the generals, otherwise, even if Zhang Mao has great abilities, it will be very difficult. How many people were taken away.
Cheng Wei pointed at Zhang Mao in a sharp voice: "Old Duke, our family respects you as the current Duke, but you don't have an edict from the emperor, and you don't have a document from the Ministry of War. Is it your brain that is broken, or our family's brain is broken."
If it were to do other things, facing Zhang Mao, Cheng Wei would not dare to talk to Zhang Mao like this even if he was the supervisor of the army, but who made what Zhang Mao said was too shocking.
Want to mobilize the army to enter the city, what do you want to do, bring everyone together to find death?
Cheng Wei hasn't lived enough yet. If he really agrees to Zhang Mao, then he will be dragged out by the emperor to be hacked into pieces.
His duty is to keep an eye on the army for the emperor, and no one should move lightly if there is no will.
Zhang Mao said angrily at Cheng Wei: "Cheng Wei, listen carefully, Changxing Marquis Feng Hai has turned against him, and he has already brought Xiaoyongying into the city. If I go late, I'm afraid Your Majesty..."
Several lieutenant generals hurried over, and when they entered the tent, they saw Cheng Wei arguing with the British Duke Zhang Mao.
After listening to a few words, these generals understood what was going on.
I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but the more I listened, the more cold sweat on everyone's foreheads.
One was stunned by the news of Marquis Changxing's rebellion, and the other was that Zhang Mao's move to transfer troops to Beijing frightened them.
Even if the Marquis of Changxing rebelled, they would not be able to leave the station, let alone enter Beijing, if there were no written instructions for dispatching troops or the imperial decree of the emperor.
At this time, almost all the generals in the army arrived, and one by one looked at the angry Zhang Mao, pointed at Cheng Wei and cursed: "Cheng Wei, it's no use for His Majesty to trust you so much and let you supervise the army. Now His Majesty is in trouble, you Are you going to sit back and watch?"
Cheng Wei also said: "Our family is loyal to His Majesty, that's why you, old Duke, are not allowed to send troops into the city. Otherwise, our family will have failed His Majesty's trust."
Whether it is from Cheng Wei's standpoint or Zhang Mao's standpoint, there is nothing wrong with the two of them.
One is eager to bring soldiers and horses to Beijing to rescue him, and the other is not at ease with anyone who transfers troops without authorization, and resolutely fulfills his duties to help the emperor look after the soldiers and horses.
Zhang Mao pulled out the sword at his waist abruptly. Under Cheng Wei's astonished eyes, he put the long sword between Cheng Wei's neck and said, "Come on, tie him up for me!"
Cheng Wei reacted and couldn't help being furious, and said to Britain: "Zhang Mao, if you want to rebel, you won't succeed. Our family is the supervisor of the army, you..."
Zhang Mao directly ordered someone to gag Cheng Wei's mouth, and then several soldiers quickly tied up Cheng Wei.
At this time, Zhang Mao stared at the generals in the big tent and shouted: "Listen to me, the Marquis of Changxing rebelled, and His Majesty is in trouble. I and my subjects should die for His Majesty. Today, I risk the world It’s too bad to force everyone to send troops with me, and if the court pursues it afterwards, I will bear it alone.”
As he spoke, Zhang Mao's eyes full of murderous intent swept across the generals, and everyone who was seen by Zhang Mao lowered their heads and did not dare to speak up to object.
Anyone can see that Zhang Mao has made up his mind to lead troops into Beijing, and even Cheng Wei, the military supervisor who opposed it, has been taken down. If anyone of them dares to stand up at this time, it may be possible Will be killed by Zhang Mao and shock people's hearts.
Seeing the reaction of all the generals, Zhang Mao shouted: "Since you have no objection, then bring me soldiers and horses, and go to Beijing to escort me."
The Tengxiang Four Guards camp was located some distance away from the imperial city. Under the protection of Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao and others ran wildly all the way, while Feng Hai led the soldiers and horses of the Xiaoyong battalion in pursuit.
The distance between the original army and Li Huan and the others gradually widened. After all, Li Huan and the others were on horseback, but there were only a handful of soldiers with horses in Xiaoyong Camp.
The ones who could really catch up were the hundreds of cavalry with Feng Hai as the core, but the number of hundreds was quite a lot, at least several times that of Li Huan and the others.
Coupled with the fact that these cavalrymen armed with strong crossbows and firecrackers attacked from the rear from time to time, Li Huan and others could only keep rushing towards the Tengxiang Four Guards camp.
Tengxiang Four Guards Battalion
Gu Dayong left the palace and did not go back to the Yumajian Yamen, but came directly to the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp.
It was because of the previous experience that Gu Dayong felt too insecure, and subconsciously wanted to stay in the barracks.
In the dead of night, Gu Dayong had already rested early, he hadn't had a good night's sleep these days, and now that the day is fine, he can also have a good rest.
Just as soon as he fell asleep, a little eunuch hurried over and shouted at Gu Dayong: "Director, Chief, quick, quick, Your Majesty is coming!"
Sleeping in a daze, Gu Dayong vaguely heard the word Your Majesty, and sat up directly from the bed, then reacted, stared at the little eunuch and said, "Your Majesty? Where is Your Majesty?"
The little eunuch said tremblingly: "Your Majesty is being hunted down and will arrive at the camp soon. Please hurry up and bring someone to greet you."
Gu Dayong jumped up from the bed, his face was full of horror, he didn't even care about wearing his shoes, he ran out of the room with bare feet and shouted: "Come here, come here, give me a beating!" Gather soldiers."
Accompanied by Gu Dayong's order, the originally silent Tengxiang Zuowei camp was broken by the sound of drums, and a large number of soldiers began to wake up from their sleep, and then went to the school grounds to gather cursingly and instinctively.
The Four Guards of Tengxiang are divided into the Left Guard of Tengxiang, the Right Guard of Tengxiang, the Left Guard of Wuxiang, and the Right Guard of Wuxiang. These four battalions are collectively called the Four Guards of Tengxiang.
The Tengxiang Zuowei is the most effective battalion of the Tengxiang Four Guards, so Gu Dayong stayed overnight at the Tengxiang Zuowei. Naturally, the Tengxiang Zuowei was summoned at this time.
Tengxiang Zuowei has about [-] elite soldiers, all of whom are warriors selected from among the best in the army. Compared with the Beijing camp, they are definitely considered elite.
Even so, if it is really necessary to wait until all the soldiers of Tengxiang Zuowei gather to return, it may be impossible without half an hour.
At this moment, Gu Dayong had already ordered Qi Xianguo, the commander of the Tengxiang left guard, to order the first thousand soldiers and horses to go with him, and the rest of the soldiers and horses were handed over to the deputy commander.
Feng Hai led hundreds of elite men to chase after him from a distance, his eyes full of madness.
Whether it's Feng Hai or Fei Hong, they all know that Tianzi and his party are heading to the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp.
If the emperor and others were allowed to enter the camp, even if all the soldiers and horses under him were willing to fight for him, they would not be able to break through the camp of the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp, let alone hold the emperor in his hands.
"Chasing, chasing for Lord Benhou. If you catch those people, Lord Benhou will give you a lot of rewards."
At first, these soldiers didn't even know that the target they attacked was the Emperor Luanjia, but after they knew it, they had already boarded the pirate ship, and it was too late even if they wanted to regret it.
The hundreds of people following Feng Hai now can be said to be the people in the entire Xiaoyong camp who are willing to follow Feng Hai all the way to the dark and fight for it.
After all, what they are guilty of is treason. Even if they choose to put down their weapons and surrender at this time, it may be a dead end. It is better to follow Feng Hai and Fei Hong's encouragement, and maybe they can become a Conglong What about the minister?
From a distance, you can already see the outline of the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp, and you can even see the dancing flames in the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp. It is obvious that the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp may have gotten the news and is gathering troops and horses .
Feng Hai and Fei Hong looked at each other, with a faint hint of despair in their eyes.
But Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao and others had already rushed to the gate of the camp. At this time, the entrance of the camp was being blocked by horses, and several soldiers guarding the gate looked at the cavalry roaring in horror.
Li Huan shouted loudly: "Quickly open the camp gate!"
At this time, Gu Dayong was rushing over with his commander Qi Xianguo and a group of soldiers, and heard Li Huan's shout from a distance.
Gu Dayong was extremely worried about the safety of the emperor, but suddenly he heard Li Huan's cry, knowing that if Li Huan was with the emperor, then the emperor would be fine, and he was relieved all of a sudden.
"Open the camp gate!"
Gu Dayong shouted loudly.
It's just that the soldiers guarding the camp gate didn't know Gu Dayong at all, even if Gu Dayong spoke, these soldiers subconsciously looked at their superiors.
The little flag officer in the army saw Gu Dayong from a distance, and immediately shouted at the soldiers under him, and soon dozens of soldiers stepped forward, and soon moved the rejecting horse to the side to reveal a channel to.
At this time, Li Huan, Zhu Houzhao and the others also came close, and when they saw the gate of the camp open, they felt relieved and rushed directly into the camp.
Feng Hai, who had already chased after him, couldn't help but roared unwillingly when he saw this scene, his eyes were full of madness, he stared at the emperor's back, and shouted suddenly: "All soldiers, follow me in."
This shout only calmed down those soldiers who followed Feng Hai, but when they saw Feng Hai charging into the camp, these soldiers also showed crazy looks one by one, and rushed in after Feng Hai.
Hundreds of people actually directly attacked the camp. Feng Hai is really crazy. His bet is to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the Tengxiang Four Guards Camp and rush into the camp to catch the emperor. Otherwise, if he misses After taking this last chance, the next thing waiting for them is the thunderous suppression of the imperial army.
The moment Li Huan rushed into the camp, Li Huan reined in his horse and yelled loudly. There were only 30 or [-] Jinyiwei left and dozens of imperial city guards. Blocked the gate of the camp.
Li Huan exhaled foul breath, looked at Feng Hai who was roaring towards him, with a bit of disdain in his eyes.
The emperor rushed into the camp, and Gu Dayong led people to greet him quickly, and he let out a sigh of relief seeing that the emperor in armor was safe and sound.
At this moment, Zhu Houzhao breathed a sigh of relief and looked to the side. He thought that Li Huan was by his side, but when he saw it, he was alone beside him, and there was no one else besides him.
"Li Qing, Li Qing!"
Zhu Houzhao panicked, shouted a few times subconsciously, and looked back, just in time to see the figure riding on a war horse at the gate of the camp, turning around and rushing towards the rebels.
At this moment, Gu Dayong noticed Zhu Houzhao's expression and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Brother Li Huan is stopping the enemy for His Majesty! Your Majesty, don't worry."
Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on the commander Qi Xianguo, and he immediately shouted: "Hurry up and bring someone to help Li Qing."
Qi Xianguo, who was about to greet the emperor, was taken aback when he heard the words, and then realized that he really didn't expect the emperor and his party to come so fast and in such a hurry, and he was planning to lead the soldiers out of the camp to meet them.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Qi Xianguo to be the commander of the first battalion, so he could not react so slowly. It was the sudden change that stunned him, so that he didn't know how to react.
Who would have thought that in this important place of the capital, someone would dare to mobilize troops to attack the emperor, and even chased and killed the emperor all the way. Until now, Qi Xianguo felt like he was dreaming.
At this time, Qi Xianguo finally came to his senses after being shouted angrily by the emperor. He immediately cupped his hands at the emperor, and shouted at the soldiers behind him: "Soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy."
At this time, at the gate of the camp, led by Li Huan, dozens of Jinyiwei and Huangcheng Suwei ran into Feng Hai and his rebels.
Originally, Feng Hai thought that he could rush into the camp and take advantage of the chaos to disrupt the camp, so he might not have a chance to catch the emperor.
But he didn't expect that Li Huan could escape into the big camp and survive, but after the emperor entered the big camp, he brought those Jinyi guards and imperial city guards to turn around to deal with him.
In this way, Feng Hai's hope was shattered all at once.
Originally, horses stepping into the camp is fast, as long as the speed is fast enough, and the defending soldiers are not given time to rush directly to the camp, hundreds of soldiers and horses are enough to disrupt the camp where thousands of troops are stationed.
It's a pity that Li Huan seemed to have been on guard against this for a long time, so he never gave him a chance to step into the camp.
bang
On one side are hundreds of desperate rebels, just to capture the emperor and gain a chance of life, and on the other side are dozens of loyal people who are desperately fighting for the emperor.
The two sides collided in one place, and screams sounded immediately.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of Shuangfang fell down. Li Huan directly stopped Feng Hai, and even knocked off the horse under Feng Hai. If Feng Hai hadn't jumped in time to dodge, he might have been blown up. The one with the head is not the horse under him, but himself.
Leaping onto the horse of a soldier behind him, Feng Hai stared at Li Huan full of apprehension, and roared angrily, "Qiangnu, shoot him to death."
In that wave of powerful crossbows just now, some of the arrows locked on Li Huan, and Li Huan didn't dodge or dodge. After receiving those arrows, I have to say that Li Huan's actions completely exceeded Feng Hai's expectations. If that was the case, he wouldn't have been almost killed by Li Huan on the spot.
After all, no matter how much Feng Hai overestimated Li Huan's strength, he still couldn't believe that Li Huan could resist the powerful crossbow with his indestructible golden body.
You must know that at least half of the arrows in that wave of arrows came towards Li Huan. Even the horse under Li Huan was shot into a hedgehog, but Li Huan was unscathed, and even blew up the horse under Feng Hai. head off.
At this time Feng Hai gave an order, and dozens of powerful crossbows fired again, and the arrows directly covered Li Huan.
Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but exclaim.
"Li Qing, be careful!"
Even though he saw the scene where Li Huan resisted the arrows with his body just now, Zhu Houzhao also cried out in surprise when he saw dozens of arrows covering Li Huan's body now.
Just a few feet away from Li Huan's side, holding a sword and rolling up sword flowers all over the sky, Yue Buqun and Wang Yangming, who had just blocked the arrows that were shot at them, looked at Li Huan together.
Both of them can be regarded as strong in martial arts, and their internal strength is so strong that they are rare in the world.
But even if they were as strong as them, they would not dare to bear the shooting of the crossbow with their own body.
They really thought that they were indestructible bodies of diamonds. If they were shot by arrows, as long as they were not vital, they would be safe and sound. But being covered by dozens of arrows, in the eyes of the two of them, they would definitely die.
Yue Buqun and Wang Yangming knew that Li Huan's kung fu was at its peak, but they couldn't help but sweat for Li Huan at the moment.
In an instant, all the arrows landed on Li Huan's body. The impact of these arrows was so strong that they directly pierced Li Huan's clothes. Some arrows fell to the ground, while others hung on Li Huan. body, but no one shot into Li Huan's body.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
Even Feng Hai was dumbfounded, his eyes full of disbelief.
"It's impossible, it's impossible..."
Seeing Li Huan standing in front of him unharmed a few feet away, Feng Hai was in a bad mood.
The surviving dozens of Jinyiwei and Huangcheng Suwei also saw the scene of Li Huansheng carrying the arrow and couldn't help but applaud Li Huan loudly.
"My lord is mighty, my lord is mighty!"
Among that group of rebels, Fei Hong, who was dressed in an official uniform, was extremely eye-catching. At this moment, he was also looking at Li Huan, who was completely intact, in horror.
Originally seeing the Son of Heaven fleeing into the camp, Fei Hong felt a little desperate, but he didn't expect that Feng Hai would burst out with such courage at this time, and wanted to rush into the camp.
This made Fei Hong feel hopeful, hoping that Feng Hai could bring him a miracle.
What he didn't expect was that Li Huan didn't follow them into the camp, but chose to stay and stop them.
When he saw Li Huan being shot by the crossbow, Fei Hong clenched his hands tightly, and couldn't help showing a bit of excitement and anticipation in his eyes, hoping to see the scene where Li Huan was shot by the crossbow.
Everything they planned was all because of Li Huan. If it wasn't for Li Huan, the emperor might still be lying in the Jinglan Palace at this moment, and he didn't need to choose such an extreme method with Feng Hai.
Therefore, Fei Hong's hatred for Li Huan could not be washed away even if he exhausted all rivers and lakes, even if he could not capture the emperor this time, but when he was on the verge of failure, he could kill Li Huan, even if he was dead, He has no regrets.
It's a pity that what disappointed Fei Hong was that Li Huan's whole body seemed to be forged from refined iron, and it was hard for him to be hurt by arrows.
"Does the legendary indestructible body of King Kong really exist?"
Fei Hong looked at Li Huan standing there, and couldn't help muttering to himself.
All the rebels were stunned by this scene, and looked at Li Huan standing there like a god in awe.
At this moment, Qi Xianguo, the commander who rushed out with the left guard of Tengxiang, and a group of soldiers also saw the scene where Li Huan showed his might just now.
The soldiers following Qi Xianguo respected Li Huan like a god.
At the same time, Li Huan let out a sigh of relief. You must know that just resisting so many arrows, Li Huan is also uncomfortable, that is, he has cultivated the thirteen Taibao magic skills to the state of being invincible, otherwise, he is really not good. Dare to bear so many arrows.
Even so, if there is a choice, Li Huan does not want to enjoy the treatment of adding arrows to his body again. This is just a wave of arrow rain. If there are a few waves, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it .
"kill!"
Hearing Li Huan's loud shout, he jumped up and appeared in front of Feng Hai, and captured Feng Hai before Feng Hai could react.
"Escape!"
Seeing that Feng Hai was taken down by Li Huan, those rebel soldiers had already been taken away by Li Huan's display of power, and it was obvious that the general situation was over now, and the rebels only hated their legs for being too short , escaped too slowly.
When Qi Xianguo saw this situation, he led his soldiers and horses to rush out without ordering them, chasing and killing the fleeing rebels.
Li Huan glanced at Yue Buqun and shouted: "Yue Baihu, take that Fei Hong to me!"
When Fei Hong saw the scene where Li Huan was invulnerable, he realized that the situation was over, and a flash of determination flashed in his eyes.
Yue Buqun jumped up when he heard the words, and after a few ups and downs, he appeared in front of Fei Hong.
At this time, Fei Hong was surrounded by the rebels, and he was in a terrible state. If it weren't for the fact that the official uniform was a little intimidating to the rebels subconsciously, making the rebels subconsciously avoid the opponent, I'm afraid he would have been captured by now. The rebel army was knocked down and trampled to death.
When Yue Buqun appeared in front of Li Huan carrying Fei Hong, Li Huan just glanced at Fei Hong indifferently, and then walked towards the camp with Changxing Marquis Feng Hai.
Surrounded by Qiu Ju, Gao Feng, Luo Xiang, and Gu Dayong, Zhu Houzhao looked at Li Huan excitedly.
Gu Dayong on the side said with a smile: "Brother Li captured Feng Hai in the chaos, he is really like a famous general in ancient times, and he won the three armies bravely."
Li Huan smiled at Gu Dayong, then turned to Zhu Houzhao seriously: "Your Majesty, the rebels Changxing Marquis Feng Hai and Fei Hong are here, please show Your Majesty how to deal with them."
Zhu Houzhao's eyes fell on Changxing Hou Feng Hai and Fei Hong.
Feng Hai's face is full of despair at this moment, where there is no such madness in chasing and killing the emperor before, the whole person seems to have been sucked away.
On the contrary, Fei Hong seemed much calmer than Feng Hailai.
"Feng Hai, I'm not surprised that other people rebelled against me, but if I remember correctly, you are the honorable man of Ming Dynasty who died with the country. Why did you betray me?"
Feng Hai just hung his head and said nothing.
Seeing that Feng Hai had no intention of opening his mouth, Zhu Houzhao didn't ask any more questions, but just snorted coldly and said, "Put him down and interrogate him strictly, and make sure his accomplices are interrogated."
When Zhu Hou looked at Fei Hong, Fei Hong burst out laughing, and gradually a black and blue color appeared on his face.
Seeing this situation, Gu Dayong, Qiu Ju and others subconsciously stood in front of the emperor.
Yue Buqun stepped forward to check almost immediately, and saw black blood flowing from Fei Hong's mouth.
"Hahaha, Fei asked himself that if he couldn't stand the torture, it would be a death penalty. It would be better to know it yourself. It's delusional for you to want to know Fei's accomplices from Fei's mouth."
In just a blink of an eye, Fei Hong's face became more and more black, obviously the poison had already spread in his body.
Zhu Hou looked at Fei Hong even though he wanted to ask more questions, but he opened his mouth, and finally just let out a cold snort: "Decree, Fei Hongmou rebelled, ordered Jin Yiwei to confiscate Fei Hong's family property, wiped out the nine clans , engraved his charges on the stone tablet in his hometown, and announced to the world that in Fei Hong's hometown, the scientific research will be suspended for ten years, as an example to others."
At this time, Fei Hong, who was getting weaker and weaker, didn't react too much when he heard that Zhu Houzhao ransacked his family and exterminated his family. After all, he was already mentally prepared for this when he participated in the conspiracy.
But what he didn't expect was that Zhu Houzhao wanted to engrave his crimes on a stone tablet in his hometown to announce to the world, and even removed his neighbors from the scientific examination for ten years.
Ten years, that is almost a generation. It is conceivable that because of him alone, in the next ten years, there will be countless literati in his hometown and neighbors who will be cut off from the scientific research.
He implicates the whole neighborhood by himself. He thought that he died to eradicate traitors such as Liu Jin and Li Huan. Even if he committed a serious crime of disobedience, he could leave a good name among the scholars in his hometown and pass it on to future generations.
However, this move of the emperor nailed him to the pillar of shame, and even made the literati in his hometown curse him, even if he died, he would not be able to rest in peace.
Murder is just that.
All of a sudden, Fei Hong opened his eyes wide and begged Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty, the responsibility for all the crimes lies with the minister alone. What is my hometown, what is my hometown..."
