Chapter 489
"There's no such thing, it's really such a reason!"

Zhang Yi was annoyed, Lao Tzu's dignified cabinet secretary actually suffered in front of Jin Yiwei, this kind of thing...of course it was colluded in advance!
Wan Gui is in charge of defending the palace, and he is cooperating with acting.

I want the old man to be the first bird, okay, no problem!
There will be no one who comes to force the palace today, just wait!
Yang Dan still persuaded from the side: "Mr. Zhang calm down, they are just a bunch of jumping clowns, let them jump around for a few days."

Zhang Yi just flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.

Yang Dan and the others had no choice but to leave and go back to discuss.

Everyone returned to Yang Hong's residence, and Qiu Dinglong, a thousand householder of Jinyiwei, came in a hurry.

"Father-in-law!"

Yang Hong waved his hand and asked, "What's wrong with Jin Yiwei? Why did you block the palace gate?"

Qiu Dinglong frowned and said: "It is said that since last night, all the big Han generals were summoned urgently, saying that the crown prince was assassinated, and the palace needs to strengthen the guard."

"Such a big matter, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"My son-in-law also just learned..."

Qiu Dinglong spoke without confidence, he didn't even know about such a big matter, the only possibility was that he was excluded.

Yang Hong sullenly asked again, "How many people can you mobilize?"

Qiu Dinglong said: "The Thousand Households Office in Dongcheng and the Hundred Households Office under its jurisdiction have about 1000 people."

"It's not too late, gather your people first, and when the troops from Shandong and Jiangsu arrive, attack directly!"

"Yes!"

Qiu Dinglong agreed, turned and left.

Yang Hong asked again: "Where are the soldiers from Shandong and Jiangsu?"

Wu Heng said: "The [-] prepared Japanese soldiers from Shandong have already arrived in Tongzhou, and there are [-] soldiers and horses on the grain road in Jiangsu, and they are coming one after another."

If you want to win the capital, military power is very important.

The [-] Battalion went to Mobei, the Shenji Battalion and the Fifth Army Battalion were sent overseas, and the defense of the capital was empty. Taking this opportunity to mobilize their own troops to the capital, great things will happen.

Yang Hong smiled triumphantly: "Very well, I just need to wait for the soldiers and horses to enter the capital. I'd like to see how long those royal guards can continue to be arrogant!"

"Sir, it's not good!"

A personal guard of the Ministry of War ran over panting, holding a document in his hand.

Seeing this, Yang Hong immediately looked displeased, and Wu Heng stepped forward and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Xifengkou Battalion is six hundred miles away, the enemy is attacking!"

"what?"

Wu Heng was shocked, and hurriedly took the document, read it over, and immediately handed it over to Yang Hong.

Yang Hong glanced hastily, and asked, "Who is the other party and how many soldiers and horses are there, why didn't you say anything?"

The clerk faltered and said, "It must have been... a sudden attack, and it was too late to investigate the enemy's situation..."

Wu Heng waved his hand and told him to go down first.

"My lord Yang, judging by my lowly position, it is likely to be the emperor... After the emperor died, the Tatars took advantage of the situation and went south, and their goal was my Ming capital."

Yang Hong said in a deep voice: "If there are Tatars at Xifengkou, who is outside Juyongguan?"

Wu Heng thought to himself, don't you know who is outside Juyong Pass?

However, in the current situation, it must be killed, it cannot be said.

"The humble official thought that the Tatars might have divided their troops. They knew that Juyongguan was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so they left a troop as a cover, but their main force has been transferred to Xifengkou. This is a strategy to attack the west!"

Both of them knew very well that the one outside Juyongguan was the emperor, and the one at Xifengkou was the real Tatar.

By now, they had no time to figure out why the Tatars turned against the enemy and defected to the emperor. What they had to do now was to keep him out and never let him approach the capital. Otherwise, who knew if he had an imperial edict in his hand?

There are 2000 people in the Xifengkou Battalion. Excluding the logistics personnel, there are about [-] combat troops. The urgent document sent today must be because the enemy army is powerful and may fall.

"Father, my child is willing to lead the army!"

At this time, Yang Hong's youngest son, Yang Jie, stepped forward.

Yang Hong was worried, this kind of thing had to be done by his confidantes, and when he saw his son asking for a job, he thought to himself, this is an opportunity.

After this coup, he will be in a high position, and his two sons and one son-in-law will be right-hand men. However, relying on blood relationship alone is not enough to establish prestige, especially in the military camp. Without military achievements, it is useless to say anything.

Today is just for Yang Jie to go north to stop the Tatars, and when the time comes to report a great victory, the military merits will come soon!

"Wu Shilang, what do you think?"

Wu Heng secretly despised him, pretending to be you!
Don't you just want to give your son some credit, return his mother's pretentiousness, and ask me if I have a use, dare I say no?
"Humble post thinks...very good!"

Only then did Yang Hong nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Yang Jie, and said, "Go to the Ministry of War to get the Tiger Talisman, send [-] troops to Tongzhou, go north to Xifengkou, and fight against the Tatars!"

"Master Yang..."

Wu Heng reminded: "The gate of the palace is blocked by Jin Yiwei, and the Ministry of War cannot go back!"

Only then did Yang Hong remember that he forgot about it.

After pondering for a moment, he ordered someone to bring a pen and paper, wrote a note, signed it, and stamped his private seal.

"You take this note, saying that someone is plotting against you, the gate of the palace has been closed, and there will be no official documents from the Ministry of War for the time being."

"The child takes orders!"

Yang Jie clasped his fists, saluted all present, and then turned and left.

However, as soon as he walked out of the yard, he saw Qiu Dinglong rushing over with a look on his face.

Yang Jie asked, "Brother-in-law, why are you back?"

"Don't...don't mention it!"

Qiu Dinglong's face was ugly, he was sweating profusely, and kept waving his hands.

Yang Jie was puzzled, and asked again: "What happened?"

"Ugh!"

Qiu Dinglong sighed, but still didn't speak, and walked into the gate.

Yang Jie felt strange, but when he thought of the task on his body, he didn't think too much about it, and rode off on his horse.

Yang Hong and the others were discussing how to seize the door, but they saw Qiu Dinglong go and come back again. Moreover, seeing his distraught appearance, it must not be good news.

"Father-in-law, my son-in-law's Qianhu Office...has been copied!"

"what?"

Yang Hong glared at him. Qiu Dinglong was in charge of the Jinyiwei East City Thousand Household Office, with thousands of people under his command. Why was he suddenly copied?

"What's going on?"

Qiu Dinglong was sweating profusely, and said: "My son-in-law returned to the Dongcheng Qianhu Office and found a seal on the door, and there was a man from Nanzhen Prefecture standing guard at the door, saying that the assassin who assassinated the prince was the captain of the Dongcheng Qianhu Office. ,How can this be?"

Yang Hong was so angry that he patted the table straight, and said angrily: "There is no assassin, it is clearly that Wangui is playing tricks!"

Qiu Dinglong was at a loss: "Father-in-law, what should we do now?"

Yang Hong thought for a while and asked, "What else did they say to you?"

"They asked my son-in-law to go to Nanzhen Prefecture as soon as possible to cooperate with the review."

"Didn't catch you?"

"no!"

Yang Hong looked hesitant, since the other party found Dongcheng Qianhu Office, why did they let Qiu Dinglong go?
Wu Heng leaned forward and said in a low voice, "I thought that the opponent's target was the troops of Qianhusuo in Dongcheng. Qiu Dinglong has no soldiers in his hands, so he is no longer a threat to them."

Yang Hong nodded slightly, it made sense to explain it this way.

"Sir, it's not good!"

The two turned their heads to look at the same time, and a messenger in armor ran in.

Wu Heng asked, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, an army of unknown origin has been found near Yu County. There are about thousands of soldiers and horses, and they are heading towards the capital!"

Wu Heng looked at Yang Hong, and Yang Hong also looked at Wu Heng, with confused faces.

If the Tatars are attacking Xifengkou, then what is going on in Yu County?

Where did the emperor get the soldiers and horses?
Wu Heng said: "My humble suggestion is to send a troop to go there."

Yang Hong frowned, and said in a low voice: "There are not many soldiers and horses, and [-] have already been divided. If we continue to divide, how will we win the capital?"

Wu Heng lowered his voice, and said, "The capital has no legs, so they can't run away. When the [-] soldiers from Jiangsu arrive, they will be within reach!"

Yang Hong nodded, then glanced around, and finally set his eyes on Qiu Dinglong.

"You also go to Tongzhou, lead [-] troops, and intercept and kill the enemies of Yu County!"

Qiu Dinglong looked worried, and asked, "Jin Yiwei's side..."

Yang Hong waved his hand and said, "Just leave this side alone and let them go!"

Qiu Dinglong also knew that he had already been targeted, and staying in the capital would be useless, so he might as well go out and do something.

There were not many people around the emperor, and the army in Yu County would never exceed 1. It was a waste of credit to lead [-] people by himself.

Yang Hong wrote another note, Qiu Dinglong took it, and went straight to Tongzhou.

As a result, the 2 people who had just arrived were divided away, and there were no soldiers in the capital to transfer. Facing the Jinyiwei guarding the gate, there was no good way for the time being, but to wait for soldiers from Jiangsu.

"How long will it take for Jiangsu's soldiers and horses?"

Wu Heng thought for a while and said, "There is a train, it will take two days at most."

"You go and make arrangements. Two days later, you will directly seize the door by force!"

"Yes!"

After discussing with each other, everyone left, but Zhang Yi was left behind.

Although he has shown that he has joined the gang, Yang Hong, Yang Dan and others are still worried. Before taking the Forbidden City, Zhang Yi cannot be released and can only be placed under house arrest temporarily.

This person's identity is too important. After all, I am the left servant of the Ministry of War and the young minister of Dali Temple, so I can't respond to everyone.

Zhang Yi wasn't annoyed, he went to sleep after eating, like a normal person.

Under the night, Jinyiwei Baihu Wantong led hundreds of Jinyiwei captains secretly out of the city, heading west.

After a night of rapid marching, they finally arrived at the Xishan Experimental Base of the Academy of Sciences before dawn.

But at this time, Wan Gui was still guarding the palace gate with Jin Yiwei, Yang Hong and others had nothing to do but stare blankly.

Finally, two days later, the troops from Jiangsu arrived as scheduled.

Due to the large number of people, there was no room for the train, so it could only be pulled one after another. It was already the third day when the soldiers and horses gathered together.

Yang Hong was overjoyed, with these [-] soldiers and horses, the entire capital was in his pocket.

"Sir, it's not good!"

The discordant voice came again, and Yang Hong almost went crazy.

"what happened again?"

"Tianjin Wei was attacked!"

Yang Hong said angrily, "How could Tianjin Wei be attacked?"

"Yes...it's the Mohe Guard of the Marquis of Julu. There are about 2000 people, all of them are cavalry. Moreover, Marquis Julu claims to have entered the capital by order, and the defenders of the Tianjin Guard dare not stop him..."

Yang Hong suddenly became nervous. Didn't Juluhou suppress the rebellion in the extreme north? Why did he suddenly kill Tianjin Wei?
Moreover, Lord Yu and Juluhou are together!
"You said just now that the leader of the army is Juluhou?"

"Yes!"

"Anyone else?"

"Others... no!"

"Master Yu is not with Juluhou?"

"This... I didn't hear that Master Yu is also in the formation."

Yang Hong felt a little more at ease, but he still didn't understand why Mohewei suddenly appeared in Tianjin.

In their original plan, Tianjin was not considered.

Now that Mohewei suddenly landed from Tianjin, if it is not stopped, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Wu Shilang!"

Wu Heng was on the side, and hurriedly replied: "Master Yang please give me instructions!"

Yang Hong was thoughtful, and said: "Tianjin Wei can't go wrong, you go there yourself!"

Wu Heng knew very well in his heart that the officials and soldiers of Tianjin Wei were very important. If Juluhou really held the imperial decree, things would be difficult.

"Humble job, let's go, but..."

Yang Hong said with a sullen face, "If you have something to say, it's okay to say it."

Wu Heng looked hesitant, and said: "The combat effectiveness of Mohe Wei and Tianjin Wei should not be underestimated, and I am worried..."

Yang Hong naturally knew the key to this. Tianjin Wei was not of the same mind with him, which was why he would look far away and transfer troops from Shandong and Jiangsu.

Now Juluhou is likely to hold the imperial decree. If the two soldiers and horses unite, it is no problem to attack the capital directly.

"Go and see how many soldiers and horses have arrived, and take them all away. Remember, at any cost, they must not be allowed to approach the capital!"

"Yes!"

Wu Heng took the order and went straight to the train station with a few personal guards.

Yang Hong began to fall into trouble. The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses he had originally transferred were all diverted, and there was no one left!
Although Jin Yiwei only has a few hundred people, there is really no way.

He ordered people to fetch maps, and plotted offensive routes in Juyongguan, Xifengkou, Yuxian, and Tianjinwei.

According to the information from the front line, the emperor is at Juyongguan.

It was the Tatars who raided Xifengkou, and there was only an old river for marching. Yang Jie led [-] soldiers to intercept them. Let alone fighting, even standing in line in the river would block the road.

There are not many people in Yu County, and Qiu Dinglong brought 1 people, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

The most difficult thing now is Tianjin Wei. Juluhou has soldiers and horses, and has imperial edicts. He can only rely on the superiority of soldiers and horses on his side, try not to fight, and confront each other to buy time for the capital.

But there are really no soldiers in the city!

You can't let those civil servants roll up their sleeves and fight with others, right?

Even if you go, you can't beat it!

When he was thinking wildly, he saw a few domestic servants walking around with sticks in his yard, and an idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

Half an hour later, more than 800 young and strong men gathered on Zhuque Street in the inner city.

These people are all dressed up as guards, holding sticks and looking fierce.

That's right, Yang Hong put together the nursing homes of all the people's homes, and it seems that the effect is not bad, very imposing.

As the nursing home of the official's family, he is definitely not a good person, and fighting in groups is even more commonplace.
