The Most Powerful Man in the World

Xu Pengju saw that thousands of rebels were under pressure, and his expression changed greatly. Almost immediately, he greeted all his men to fight and retreat, and quickly retreated to the city gate.

The city gate was originally a place for heavy defense arranged by Xu Chu. Thousands of troops were arranged at the gate of the city alone. Although it could not be said that it was impregnable, it could at least ensure that the city gate would not fall into the hands of others casually.

At this moment, Xu Pengju gathered with the guerrilla general Giako, who was guarding the city gate.

Giaco has a close relationship with the Xu family, and can be said to be one of the staff of the Xu family in the army, so it is natural that Giaco respects Xu Pengju, a next-generation Duke of Wei.

Giako looked at Xu Pengju and said, "It's good that the young master is not injured, otherwise, he will really not know how to explain it to the old man."

Xu Peng raised his hand and said to Jacco: "Jacco, try to find a way to block these rebels, otherwise, once they get close to the city gate, the city gate may not be able to hold."

Giaco and Xu Pengju saw the deep city gate behind them, and saw a rumbling sound coming from the thick copper-clad city gate.

Just listening to the rhythmic sound, I knew that the rebels must have reached the city gate and were attacking the city gate with siege vehicles.

It's a pity that the city gate is too strong. The thick wooden gate, after being covered with copper skin, is almost comparable to the stone gate.

Giaco took a deep breath and said, "My little master is here to stay, until the final commander kills these rebels."

Anyway, the city gate behind him could not be breached for a while, so Jiako's attention naturally shifted to the servants and nursing homes sent by more than a dozen families.

With just one glance, Giaco could see the pros and cons of these rebels.

If I really want to say, there are many advantages. These people are strong and strong, and at a glance, they know that the food on weekdays will not be too bad.

On the other hand, the strength of these people is not bad one by one, at least a lot stronger than most of the soldiers.

But there are advantages, but there are not many disadvantages. The biggest point is that these people have no concept of cooperation at all. It can be said that they are all good players alone. As for letting them unite, they also cooperate. not go together.

Giaco grinned, dressed in armor, and shouted: "All soldiers, kill the thieves with me!"

With a puff, Jaco's voice stopped abruptly, he looked back in disbelief, and saw that his lieutenant was looking at him cruelly, and a long knife sank from his vest.

Deputy General Huang Ping shouted: "All officers and men, open the city gate with me if you want to survive, King Yingning!"

Xu Pengju, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was stunned when he saw this scene, with an unbelievable look on his face.

Suddenly, Huang Ping swung his knife towards Xu Pengju and slashed towards Xu Pengju. With a snort, blood spurted out. A servant stood in front of Xu Pengju and pushed Xu Pengju away, shouting, "Let's go, little master!"

Xu Pengju came back to his senses completely, gritted his teeth, turned around and left.

Deputy General Huang Ping betrayed and beheaded the guerrilla general Giako, which can be said to have greatly exceeded Xu Pengju's expectations.

In particular, many soldiers defected with Huang Ping, which made Xu Pengju realize that there were really many people who were attracted by King Ning in the city, and there were even people in the army who had King Ning.

Under the protection of a dozen generals, Xu Pengju finally killed him and disappeared into the night.

In the five army governor's mansion, Xu Chu looked tired, and he could vaguely hear the sound of killing outside the city.

A burst of hurried footsteps came, Xu Chu suddenly opened his eyes, and when he looked, he saw Xu Pengjun hurried in blood.

Seeing the blood on Xu Pengju's body, Xu Mu couldn't help but said in shock: "Pengju, you are..."

Xu Pengju looked at Xu Chu and said, "Grandpa, the big thing is bad. Huang Ping, the deputy general of Jiake, was bought by King Ning and has already rebelled, and General Jiake has been killed. I am afraid that the North Gate will be protected!"

"What, the city gate has fallen!"

Xu Chu's complexion suddenly turned pale, but Xu Chu had experienced strong winds and waves in the end, but he was shocked and quickly reacted.

Xu Chu took a long breath and said, "Let's go!"

Soon, a group of men and horses rushed out of Wei Guogong's mansion and headed straight for the south gate, guarding several carriages.

At the north city gate, after Huang Ping beheaded Giaco, he soon beheaded some of the soldiers who were unwilling to submit, and then opened the city gate, and then King Ning's army entered the city.

Ning Wang's rebels poured into Nanjing City like a torrent.

Suddenly, the whole silent city of Nanjing became boiling, and many officials were stunned when they heard the news that the city gate was broken.

They couldn't be more clear about the arrangement Xu Chu made. It can be said that there are no obvious loopholes at all. Even if there are loopholes, it will not affect the overall situation.

However, it only took two days. King Ning attacked the city, and the city of Nanjing was breached. This is really unbelievable. This is coming too quickly. Not so surprised.

In the tent of the army camp outside the city, because of the siege of the city in the evening, King Ning did not rest, but sat there waiting for the news of the siege.

Soon Li Shishi and Liu Yangzheng came together, and they just entered the tent and couldn't help but say with joy, "Congratulations, Lord Hexi, Nanjing City, it's broken!"

King Ning was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, then suddenly stood up, and said in a tone full of surprise: "What, Nanjing City is broken!"

Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi nodded in unison.

"Hahaha, the city of Nanjing is broken, and the great cause of this king can be expected!"

While speaking, King Ning got up and said, "Order the army to enter the city with this king!"

As the news of the city's destruction spread, many officials showed some disappointment on their faces, while others were surprised.

Nanjing Zhongguan Garrison House

Fan Heng squinted and glanced at the person in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "It seems that Nanjing City is broken!"

As Fan Heng's confidant, Li Yingji gained Fan Heng's trust, nodded and said, "Everything is as expected by the general manager. The Dong family in the city has united with more than a dozen families. He directly killed the city gate defenders by surprise, the north gate opened, and the rebels poured into the city, and Nanjing City fell!

The corner of Fan Heng's mouth showed a slight smile and nodded slightly: "It's good to break the city, it's good to break it!"

While speaking, Fan Heng looked at Li Ying and said, "Everyone who should be arranged has been arranged!"

Li Ying nodded and said, "The general manager can rest assured that all the people arranged by the slaves can make a contribution, and the custody will be trusted by King Ning."

In the direction of the North City Gate, he slowly said: "We should go too, our general manager refuses to accept the trust of the chief general!"

[The third one is sent, ask for a monthly pass, give a reward, ooh ooh! 】

Chapter three hundred and sixty-six the big family that fell blood mold [1 more]

As the rebels entered the city, the Beicheng Gate was completely occupied, and a large number of King Ning's rebels poured into Nanjing City, unless someone led an army suddenly to turn the tide at this time.

It's a pity that people in Nanjing are complicated. Even with all the efforts made by Wei Guogong Xu Chu, he was still unable to defend Nanjing City, the core place in the south of the Yangtze River.

Just after Xu Pengju brought back the news that the Beicheng Gate had been breached, Xu Chu had already left Nanjing City with the core members of Wei Guogong's line.

With the Xu family's huge network in Nanjing City, in fact, as early as when King Ning raised his army, the Duke of Wei Xu Fu had made several preparations.

It's just that Cheng Po's preparation to escape from Nanjing City was obviously the last thing Xu Chu wanted to see.

After all, the Xu family has been entrenched in Nanjing City for so many years. It can be said that they really manage Nanjing City as their own nest. Maybe other officials hope that King Ning can enter the city, but from the Xu family's position, even if it is not for the present day The Son of Heaven, the Duke of Wei and the Xu family absolutely did not want to see King Ning enter the city.

After all, the current situation in Nanjing City is the most beneficial to their Xu family. This situation has been stabilized after dozens of hundreds of years. As long as there is no trouble in Nanjing City, then no one can endanger their Wei Guogong lineage. The detached status and huge interests in Nanjing City.

Once King Ning entered Nanjing City, it can be said that the one who suffered the most was the Duke of Wei Xu's family.

The Xu family occupies the huge interests of Nanjing City, and after King Ning enters Nanjing City, the entire Nanjing City will inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes, and the interests of the Xu family will inevitably be damaged.

Even if their Xu family chose to belong to King Ning, it would definitely not change the result of the damage to their interests.

It is precisely because of this that the old fox Xu Chu chose to stand up and choose to eliminate some officials who colluded with King Ning, hoping to stabilize the situation in Nanjing City.

It's a pity that Xu Chu underestimated the unpredictability of people's hearts. Although he said that he had won some officials, there were still many lords and dignitaries in the city who chose King Ning.

Even without the rebellion of the lieutenant, the city of Nanjing would not last long, and would be captured by King Ning sooner or later.

Of course, the premise is that Chu Yi will not arrive in advance. If Chu Yi arrives in Nanjing City ahead of time, then with Chu Yi's means and deterrence, Nanjing City will be impregnable at that time. .

Fan Heng had been prepared for a long time. Except for Li Ying, his confidant, Fan Heng, the other eunuchs big and small, did not bring any of them. The two changed their clothes, that is, Li Ying was carrying a small package. At first glance, there was no such thing at all. Who can recognize that Fan Heng is actually a left-behind eunuch in Nanjing City.

When the rebels entered the city, the most worrying thing happened to the people in the city.

These soldiers under King Ning's command were not considered regular troops, and I dare not say that they are all corrupted in military discipline, but it is obviously difficult to expect these soldiers to restrain themselves when facing the bustling city of Nanjing.

I don't know who was the first to start, and many soldiers who poured into the city began to loot everywhere.

The city of Nanjing is prosperous, and there are many rich and powerful families in the city. Many of them can't help but be overjoyed when they see King Ning's rebels entering the city.

It is obvious that King Ning is more reliable in the eyes of many nobles and dignitaries than he is today in Nanjing City.

There were shouts of killing everywhere, and many people's homes were smashed open by the rebel soldiers who were like wolves and tigers, and then rushed to burn, kill and loot.

As a result, the people in the city suffered. Many people's families either saw their wealth being taken away and did not dare to resist, or they were hacked and killed by the rebels on the spot after trying their best to resist.

A group of rebel soldiers were gathered in front of a large courtyard at the moment, the door was closed, and they only looked at the rich and noble mansion. The fools knew that the owner of this mansion must be a powerful man and a nobleman.

The leading general looked at the compound in front of him and couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He wished he could rush up immediately. How much oil and water could he loot by looting the homes of ordinary people? Then one or two families can be worth the looting of thousands of people.

Wang Yidao was a bandit before he joined King Ning's command. After he joined King Ning's command, with all his ruthlessness, he climbed to the post of captain of the school among the rebels of King Ning, and he commanded nearly a thousand people.

At this moment, Wang Yidao looked at the mansion in front of him, and his heart was about to move.

Beside him, a lieutenant general urged: "General, this is a big family, at least the family has a lot of money, let's rush in and keep the brothers all eating."

In the Xu residence, Xu Mingzheng clapped and praised with a look of joy: "Okay, okay, God's eyes are opened, King Ning is indeed the prince of destiny, and my Xu family chose to support King Ning indeed!"

The faces of several core members of the Xu family were also full of joy.

Their Xu family had at least a dozen shops and restaurants in Nanjing City. If the tax was increased according to Chu Yi's request, then their family would have to pay at least thousands or even nearly [-] taels of tax every year.

Since their Xu family started to make a fortune, their Xu family has never paid any commercial tax money, and now they are suddenly asked to pay taxes. Isn't this cutting their flesh and letting their blood?

If you don't agree, you can't agree even if you die!If you want to raise taxes, just step over their corpses.

It can be said that there are not too many thinkers like the Xu family in the prosperous commercial area of ​​Jiangnan.

A burst of hurried footsteps approached, and Xu Ming, who was excited about King Ning entering the city, couldn't help but look up, and saw the panic-stricken look of the head of the nursing home.

"Xu Li, why is there such a panic?"

As the head of the Xu family's nursing home, Xu Li has been in the Xu family for nearly ten years, and it can be said that he has already integrated into the Xu family. The soldiers of the team appeared outside the house, and looking at the posture, it seems that it will be detrimental to our Xu family!"

Xu Ming's expression changed when he heard the words, and his face showed a bit of astonishment: "How is it possible, you can see clearly, what is the origin of those soldiers? Could it be that the army was defeated in the city?"

If it is said that the imperial army was defeated and turned into a chaotic army, then looting in the city, then Xu Ming can understand.

Xu Li shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Master, those people are obviously the soldiers of King Ning!"

"This is impossible. Our Xu family strongly supports King Ning, and even secretly sent thousands of stone of food and some weapons to King Ning. How could King Ning's soldiers and horses be detrimental to our Xu family!"

While speaking, Xu Ming quickly walked out of the living room and said, "Follow me to meet each other for a while!"

There was greed in Wang Yidao's eyes, and he waved his hand: "Brothers, charge for me!"

Behind Wang Yidao, the soldiers of the rebels, who had long been unable to bear it, suddenly shone with eyes and howled, only to rush towards the Xu family.

The Xu family gate may be able to block some ordinary people, but for these soldiers, it was only a few hits and the gate was knocked open.

Hundreds of rebel soldiers suddenly poured out.

Xu Ming, who had just walked out of the living room, heard cheers coming from outside the door before he walked to the front door. Then he saw the door vibrate several times. With a bang, the door collapsed.A group of soldiers poured into the courtyard.

Wang Yidao's eyes fell on Xu Li's face with a look of horror.
