335 Civil unrest 1
! "Yes!" Brother Niu said loudly.
"Fang Shan, follow me to the rescue!"
After handing over the safety of Zhengyangmen to Cai Mingbo, I immediately went down the city wall.
After fighting for a month in a row, fighting almost became an instinctive reaction of the soldiers, Wei Dayong passed on my general order, and at a short time there was an army of 2,000 people assembled on standby.
There was no passionate battle speech, the people standing here were all down-to-earth pro-emperor faction, no need for me to fool, each of them was willing to protect the emperor's safety with their own lives, and with a bang, everyone immediately spread their feet and ran to the palace, and the people who ran in the front were me, Luo Rou, Xue'er, Fang Shan and Wei Dayong!
The palace is only a few miles away from Zhengyangmen, and it is just a few miles away.
Inside and outside the palace city, countless torches were illuminated, but about 3,000 rebels dressed in cloth were attacking the palace gate, several rough and unstable looking ladders were climbing the rebels, and two logs with a diameter of about three feet and a length of about two zhang were used as battering rams, alternating against the heavy palace gate...... There were also shouts of killing at the palace gate in the north, and it seemed that the rebels wanted to attack from the north and south to capture the palace.
On the palace wall, the brocade guards commanded Wen Qian, dressed in military uniforms and holding a long sword, calmly commanding the brocade guards to counterattack the rebels, and a rain of arrows kept pouring on the rebels. The rebels had no armor to protect them, and suffered heavy casualties under the blow of the arrow rain, but they still went forward one after another, using their bodies to resist the arrow rain.
I raised my gun over my head and shouted, "Kill, leave no one alive, fight quickly!" ”
"Kill, ......" The two thousand officers and soldiers behind him shouted in unison, like a tiger pounced on the sheep!
The rebel generals had already noticed the arrival of our army and shouted: "Turn back to meet the enemy, destroy the reinforcements first, and then kill the puppet emperor!" ”
The rebels, who were attacking the palace in full swing, heard the voice, as if they had already discussed it, and immediately turned back to our army, without dragging their feet and leaving no one to attack the palace.
After Wen Qian commanded the brocade guards to shoot more than 100 rebels who ran at the rear, he wanted to open the palace gate, join forces with me, and annihilate the rebels in one fell swoop.
I understood what he was thinking, and shouted loudly while running wildly: "Lord Wen, don't open the palace gate, beware of fraud!" Leave these troublemakers to me! ”
Wen Qian listened to my voice, and immediately reacted, the rebels' actions are very suspicious, it is said that I led the army to rescue, the rebels should divide a force to intercept, and continue to maintain the attack on the palace, but this will be the whole army to meet our department, is it possible that the rebel general is a mediocre person, do not understand that once the defenders in the palace are impacted, he will face the enemy on both sides? Moreover, the number of rebels is also a little less, only about 3,000 people, even if you count the rebels in the north, but about 5,000 people, these 3,000 people can be said to be poorly equipped, especially the lack of bows and arrows, birds and guns such as suppression weapons. The palace is guarded by 5,000 well-trained and loyal brocade guards, although the ratio of the strength of the two armies is one to one, but the defenders Sun Tzu has a cloud of war: ten for it, five for it! That is, it takes five times the enemy's strength to attack. And the rebels want to break through the palace with these 5,000 remnants, which is undoubtedly a dream. Wen Qian thought the same as me, perhaps there were countless rebels hiding in the darkness not far away, and they were waiting for the palace gate to open and the defenders to rush out of this good opportunity!
"Then the lower official wishes your Excellency a victory and annihilation of the rebels!" Wen Qian shouted, and the sound shook the whole city.
I was secretly shocked when I heard it, this Wen Qian is actually a master of the inner family, and his strength is very extraordinary, even if it is not as good as me, the gap is probably very small.
