Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 1717 Infighting
The generals took a closer look and found that the person who spoke was Gao Xidian, the head of the foreign committee. He was originally a hereditary head of the Guangzhou guard. He was young. He didn't know where he went and how much money he spent. Add a foreign commissioner.It can be regarded as a sesame official who is too small.

One of Liu Fengsheng's confidantes coughed: "Brother Gao, you can't say that. When it comes to war, none of us brothers have been ambiguous. Over the years, fighting against pirates, fighting Yaoman, and suppressing bandits... that time was not an order from the imperial court. , the brothers went out with swords and guns to let the horses go. Brothers here, one counts as one, and which one is not a knife and a gun, earned from corpses and blood." He said squinting at Gao Xidian.

Someone from behind started to boo, "You bratty brat."

"Dare to brag even if you haven't played before!"

"act recklessly!".

"Since Commander Gao is always so loyal and brave, how about letting him lead the troops to meet the Kun bandits first?"

"If you want to die, don't drag others behind you."

……

Gao Xidian's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and he said loudly: "In this case, Gao is willing to be the vanguard! General please order troops to open the gunpowder depot, and Gao will immediately lead the troops to the stage to supervise the battle! We will fight the gangsters to the end!"

Another person said in a strange way: "Gao Ba is always the reincarnation of Wu Mu, utterly loyal, talented in both civil and military affairs, Gao Ba will always kneel down and beg for surrender!"

Another person laughed and said, "It's not needless to say, once General Gao gets on the fort, he can scare off millions of soldiers with a loud roar."

"I didn't expect Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide to be born in my Humen Village."

……

Liu Fengsheng's cronies quarreled with the officers who had decided to surrender, and immediately suppressed Gao Xidian. Most of the other officers were unwilling to go to battle to die, and they were silent.

Gao Xidian was so angry that his face turned red. He was just a foreign commissioner, and besides three personal soldiers, there were only a dozen or so big soldiers under him.To say that it is these three personal soldiers who can really fight with all their strength.If Liu Fengsheng didn't order soldiers and open the gunpowder depot, even if Zhang Fei was reborn, it wouldn't work.He straightened his neck and argued: "Since eating the king's salary, you must be loyal to the king. Humen is the key to Guangzhou. Once it falls, Guangzhou will be in danger..."

"Well said!" Someone in the originally giggling lobby suddenly yelled, and the lobby suddenly fell silent. Liu Fengsheng, who had been keeping his face cold and silent, was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the person who came out, he sneered as expected One sound.

Liu Fengsheng expected him to come out to stop him, but Gao Xidian, a stunned young man, jumped out a bit unexpectedly.

The person who came out was also a general, who was originally the hereditary commander of the Guangzhou Huiwei. His surname was Ma and his name was Chengzu.Is a high-ranking soldier.Most of the high-ranking officers and soldiers in Guangzhou were transferred from Nanjing during the Chenghua and Jiajing years to suppress the Yao people's riots, and their ancestors were all Semu soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty.

Although there are not many high-ranking soldiers in Humen Village, they are all Guangzhou natives and hold together.Ma Chengzu himself is a hereditary commander, with thousands of soldiers in the battalion, only one level lower than Liu Fengsheng.It is very powerful in Humen Village.

"Gentlemen! Gao Ba always said it right! Not to mention that we are all officials of the imperial court, how many people have received the favor of the emperor, but this Humen pass is the key to enter Guangzhou. If the robbers pass through easily, Guangzhou will fall into his hands! Most of you are local aborigines in Guangzhou, can you just sit back and watch the thieves enter Guangzhou and trap your relatives, friends, fathers and villagers in the fire and water of swords and fire?! Think twice, everyone!" He said sincerely Cut, I couldn't help but move people, some people showed shaken expressions on their faces.

Someone muttered: "We only have this few troops, and the Kun thief is good at fighting, how can we win the battle..."

"If you can't win, you have to fight. If you can delay here for a while, the city will be prepared to defend against the enemy for a while. Moreover, it can also slightly dampen the spirit of the gangster. Even if you die here, you will still be worthy of the emperor. I am worthy of the common people's family..."

"Enough!" Seeing the situation, Liu Fengsheng was in a bad mood: he was so eloquent that he might pull some swaying people over. He slapped the table and shouted loudly: "Ma Chengzu! This is Humen Village, I You are the main general of the Humen Village, and it is not your turn to dictate!"

Ma Chengzu sneered and said, "You are worthy, Humen Zhailord! You have always flirted with the thieves and colluded secretly. I thought it was just a bad official practice. I didn't expect the thieves to attack. You didn't send troops, you didn't open the treasury, and you were left alone." To be a high-ranking general who serves the country with a heart is to be punished! I think you want to surrender to the gangsters and become a traitor!"

"Bold!" Liu Fengsheng saw that he had torn his face without hesitation, and simply went into battle shirtless, "Left and right! Take it with me!"

The officers in the lobby originally had many of Liu's henchmen, and there were more than a dozen of Liu's soldiers and servants in the hall, all of whom were prepared by him to prevent such a situation.As soon as he gave an order, these people surrounded Ma Chengzu.

Ma Chengzu showed no fear, and said, "I knew you had this skill." After speaking, his face changed, and he shouted loudly: "Liu Fengsheng has defected to the enemy! Serving the country with loyalty is now!" He pulled it out from his waist. The hidden dagger.

Before the words were finished, twenty or thirty soldiers poured into the originally empty lobby courtyard, brandishing knives and guns, and charged toward the lobby—these were all Ma Chengzu's personal servants, and some high-ranking officers and soldiers.The soldiers of the Liu family who were standing in front of the hall were caught off guard, and were rushed to death, and five or six were cut down in an instant.The front of the hall suddenly fell into a melee.

Liu Fengsheng was horrified - he had arranged for his nephew Liu Zhipei to lead 100 people to surround the barracks of the officers and soldiers secretly, and slaughter these people on the spot if something happened.Now these people suddenly appeared - he didn't hear the sound of fighting in the direction of the barracks, and it didn't look like they rushed out.

It was too late to think about it, the hall was already in chaos, the officers and soldiers of the hall were fighting with the soldiers of various families, and the people who had fallen to the ground in a moment, except for Liu Fengsheng's cronies, most of the officers in the hall were drifters. Wishing to attack the old robe Ze, Ma Chengzu brandished a dagger to force back several soldiers, broke through the encirclement and rushed all the way towards the dripping eaves.Liu Fengsheng knew that once he rushed out to pack up the troops, the Humen village would be completely out of control, and the "presenting the village" he promised at the beginning would be completely ruined!Can't help shouting: "Don't leave Ma Chengzu!"

His soldiers and servants all rushed towards Ma Chengzu, Ma Chengzu showed no fear, he leaned against the pillar and brandished a dagger to resist, but the dagger was short, it was no match for a long sword at all, after a while his whole body was covered with wounds, he tried his best to resist.Here, Gao Xidian grabbed a chair and rushed over, waving all the way.He was young and strong, and he swung the pear flower wood chair vigorously, forcing several servants to retreat in an instant. A soldier was accidentally swept by him, screamed, and fell to the ground, spitting blood.Gao Xidian rushed to Ma Chengzu's side and said loudly, "Mr. Ma Qian, let's rush out!"

Ma Chengzu had never had any contact with him. Seeing him risking his life to rescue him, he was moved. He ignored the pain on his body, snatched a saber from the ground, and shouted: "Come and open the way, I'll kill you!" People and horses kill the thieves!"

The two rushed one after the other, none of them could resist, and they had already rushed to the dripping eaves. Suddenly, Gao Xidian was shot by an arrow and fell to the ground. Annoyed.Ma Chengzu took advantage of this gap to escape from the lobby.The high-ranking officers and soldiers who were fighting in the courtyard burst into cheers, their morale soared, and they all shouted "Kill the thief!".The fight became more and more fierce, and Liu Fengsheng was at a disadvantage.

Liu Fengsheng secretly groaned, secretly cursing where did Liu Zhipei go?If this goes on, I can only escape for my life!Watching the servants and soldiers in the yard die less and less, they are gradually forced to climb the steps.Just as he was about to run away and talk, there was another commotion outside, it turned out that Liu Zhipei's men had arrived, Liu Fengsheng felt relieved and almost fell to the ground.

The arrival of this batch of fresh troops immediately changed the battle situation. The high-ranking officers and soldiers were surrounded in the courtyard, stabbed with knives and spears, and gradually lost the wind. There are more and more people here, but there are fewer and fewer people here.Ma Chengzu was hit by several arrows in a row, staggered, barely supported his body with the gun, seeing that there were only a few people around him, Gao Xidian's head had been chopped off on the steps, and someone picked him up with a long spear , knowing that there was no hope of breaking through, he couldn't help but looked up to the sky and sighed: "If you want to kill the enemy, you can't turn back!" Before he finished speaking, two spears stabbed him at the same time, and Ma Chengzu couldn't hold on anymore, and fell to the ground and died.The remaining high-ranking officials and soldiers were also stabbed with knives and guns, and they were all slaughtered.

Liu Fengsheng walked out of the hall under the guard of his own soldiers and came to the steps. Seeing the corpses all over the floor, Liu Fengsheng couldn't help but secretly startled. If Liu Zhipei hadn't arrived in time, the one who fell into the pile of corpses would not be Ma Chengzu but himself!He hated Ma Chengzu's resistance, which caused him to lose many family members and soldiers for nothing, and even several trusted officers died.He said bitterly: "Ma Chengzu and Gao Xidian stubbornly resisted the Heavenly Soldiers, death is not a pity, cut off the heads of all these people and give orders in front of the stronghold!"

"Here!"

"The whole battalion, Dasuo, execute Gao Xidian, Ma Chengzu's personal servants, and the rest of the high-ranking officers and soldiers! No one will be left behind!" Liu Fengsheng shouted at the top of his voice.

After the order was completed, he turned around and looked at the officers who came out of the lobby.

"Everyone! Our brothers are now members of the Great Song Dynasty and the Senate. The chiefs have already said that as long as we work with peace of mind, our wealth and honor are indispensable. If we still want to be hypocritical, these people will end!"

The officers following him were all silent, and no one dared to say anything more.

Seeing that there were no more people who disobeyed him, Liu Fengsheng ordered the blue flags prepared in advance to be hung on the top of Wushan Mountain and the flagpoles in front of Humen Village. He ordered some officers to return to the camp, restrain their subordinates, and wait for the Australians to come to check .
