Chapter 256: Shengjing Rebellion
In the east of Shengjing Palace, outside the Chengtian Gate, the Northwest Elite Cavalry who was ordered to come here to intercept and kill the Imperial Forest Army did not see anyone, and the Imperial Forest Army that should have escorted the hundred officials from the Chengtian Gate into the palace did not arrive as scheduled, Meng San led people to investigate, but saw the panicked hundred officials on the way, and the hundred officials said that the Imperial Forest Army suddenly abandoned them for some reason, and took the old general Hua out of the city.
Meng San looked at the city gate from afar, and the lean northwest boy sat on horseback with a confused expression.
The general has no intention of the country, but now he wants to rebel, and the saint has tried to govern himself for many years, but today he abandoned the country and left.
What the fuck is this called......
"Chase!"
General Hua Lao is the grandfather of the general, and he can't have anything to do anymore!
*
By this time, the outer city was already in chaos.
When Hu Yanhao robbed Duqing, he ordered Wang Jun to burn down the post house, and the Liao army burned shops and houses everywhere, and the people fled for their lives in a hurry, and the outer city was in chaos. There were no war horses in the Five Cities Patrol Division, and the fast catchers couldn't catch up with the iron cavalry of Da Liao, and Long Wuwei, who was guarding the city gate, was alarmed and intercepted the Liao army in the direction of the fire, but he didn't want to hit Hu Yanhao's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.
The city gate guards were empty, Hu Yanhao led Wang Jun to ride his horse to break through the city gate, the captain wanted to stop, and was beheaded by Wang Jun with a knife, blood splashed on the heavy tungsten iron city gate, and the captain's head rolled a few times on the long bluestone street, and was trampled into mud by Huma's iron hooves.
The city gate of Shengjing has not been stained with the blood of the garrison for 20 years, and Long Wuwei has not been in battle for a long time, and when he was a little alarmed, the Wang army of Da Liao broke out of the city gate and went south.
The adjutant general did not dare to send people to chase after him, but ordered the city gate to be closed strictly, and Long Wuwei, patrolling and fleeing people blocked the long street. It was not too late, the firelight burned half of the imperial city, the inner city seemed to be located in the red glow, the royal forest army galloped out of the red glow, the bright yellow robe, the Xuanqing armor, ten thousand horses chased each other, like a landslide.
The people who rode the horse before were covered with dust, the clothes were torn, but the demeanor was noble and unparalleled, the demeanor did not say that the people in the world had never seen, even the people of Shengjing had not seen, in a trance I thought that I had seen the wrong person, and I was waiting to take a closer look, the people had galloped close, the officials and the people hurriedly got out of the way, looked up, and saw the smoke and dust rolling out of the sky, the holy horse galloped across the long street, the stump sleeves rose with the wind, like a tongue of fire flying, and suddenly it burned through the sky!
Bu Xi happily spurred the horse, galloped all the way, and the will of the Tao was transmitted to the rear, "A thousand men and horses go to the governor's mansion and pick up the people in the mansion out of the city!" β
"A thousand people go to King Jin's mansion and take King Jin out of the city!"
"When the people in the mansion of the hundred officials withdraw, burn down the official residence, don't hurt the women and children!"
The sound of horses' hooves was too noisy, and few people could hear the will clearly, so they saw thousands of horses chasing each other, the wind swept up the smoke and dust, the army galloped to the city gate, and from time to time more than a thousand fine horsemen left according to the order.
The people fled far away, panicked, and were guessing what was going on, when they suddenly saw ten thousand horses hoofing, and the royal guards stopped their horses and looked ahead in unisonβBu Xihuan suddenly stopped for some reason.
He stopped, but had no will, but sat quietly on the back of his horse, and after a long time he turned around, looking at the inner city from afar through the army, and his eyes fell on the west side of the city.
The westward slope is getting westerly, the official residence is heavy, and the palace where he lived when he was a child cannot enter the man's sight, but it is engraved in his memory, and he often dreams and is difficult to forget for 20 years. The firelight reflected the man's eyebrows very brightly, and the pain at the bottom of his eyes was very clear. The long street was silent, the man closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was full of joy and anger, and said: "Go to King Heng's Mansion and General Xuanwu's Mansion to pick up King Heng and General Xuanwu's family members out of the city!" β
"Yes!" A general of the Imperial Guards was ordered to lead the troops.
Bu Xihuan looked at the Imperial Forest Army who came out of the city with him and said: "If your family is in the city, you can take your family out of the city and go south with the army." Life and death are unpredictable, I live and die with you! β
The Imperial Forest Army helped him seize the palace today, and many people died in the Praetorian Guard, and in the future, the court will be liquidated, and he will not be able to live, so he can only go south with him. The Imperial Forest Army has a total of 10,000 people, and most of the soldiers' families are in the north of the river. Since then, the soldiers have been looking across the river from their families, and after a long time, they have been thinking about their families, and they are not good for the army, so they might as well bring their families with them today.
Taking the people south, it seems that this road is not easy to walk, but it is not. When the army goes south, there is nothing to hide, and if it is stopped by the state cities along the way, it is most likely difficult to resist. Yuan Xiu has been loved by the people for many years, and since he is rebellious, he will not kill the people indiscriminately, so there are people in the army, but they can avoid the war and help the army cross the river!
The Imperial Guards dismounted one after another and knelt down to thank the Holy Grace.
Half of the soldiers scattered into the streets and alleys, the people were stunned, and Long Wuwei was shocked!
Long Wuwei didn't know the situation in the palace, he only knew that Yuan Xiang was dead, the Hua family was bound, the palace was seized, the life and death of the empress dowager were unknown, and the holy government was in sight, so no one dared to stop him when he saw that the holy car had the intention of leaving the city, but how to listen...... The Divine Will is not to leave the city, but to abandon it?
Could it be that the situation in the palace has changed?
One of Long Wuwei's staff officers quietly lowered his body and was about to dismount and blend into the crowd, when Bu Xihuan glanced at him lightly. That glance is careless, but it is soul-snatching.
Bu Xihuan did not move his sleeves, but there was a sword qi shot out on his side, the sword qi was invisible, only the sound of the blade cutting the wind passed through his ears, the sword sound did not fall, the general had already fallen off the horse on his back, and Long Wuwei on his side subconsciously looked down, and blood spurted out, splashing his face.
The people fled in panic, the people on the street were like ants, Long Wuwei rode a horse, there was no way to escape, some people wanted to get off the horse and blend into the crowd, as soon as they raised their eyes, they saw Li Chaorong leading the troops to surround them, and no one could go.
When the people dispersed, the people on the street were silent, leaving only the atmosphere of slaughter.
Bu Xi was happy and angry, only looked at the city gate from afar, and waited - waiting for the fire in the inner city, waiting for half of the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army to return with their families.
Li Chaorong glanced back at Bu Xihuan, with admiration in his eyes. The Holy One must be in a hurry at this moment, and he can still think about the things on the road and in the future, and his heart is very strong. Merely...... It took some time for the soldiers to bring their families to arrive, and this hour was enough for the pursuers to arrive, and I don't know how long the people arranged by the saint on the tower could delay the pace of the pursuers.
Li Chaorong looked in the direction of the inner city, only to see the smoke drifting through the city tower in the wind, like a cloud pressing down on the city.
The inner city, the fire is on!
*
When the fire in the inner city started, the northwest elite horse had galloped close to the city gate, the fire was like a glow, paving the long street, Meng Sanlema stopped urgently, turned his head to look at the direction of the fire. Just as he turned around, the sound of long arrows tearing through the long wind, coming from the city tower, straight through his heart!
Meng Sanshu has been in war for many years and is very sensitive to the sound of arrows, and when the bowstring is tight, his complexion changes greatly, and he shouts: "There is an enemy!" β
As soon as the warning sounded, he was already lying down, flipped the reins, and hung on the side of the horse! The long arrow grazed his ear, the wind pierced his ears, the strength cut his cheeks painfully, when the blood beads flew up, the arrow body poofed through the horse's neck, the war horse wiped the ground and overturned, Meng San fell to the ground, leaned over to avoid the horse corpse, at this time he led a thousand northwest elite horsemen have been hit by arrows, most of them rode horses to avoid retreating into the dark alley, there are hundreds of people because of the war horse arrows and avoid behind the horse is difficult to get up.
The Northwest Army, which retreated into the dark alley, took arrows and bows, and shot at the city tower in a volley, Meng San and the others took advantage of the cover to get up, drew their knives and retreated while cutting the arrows. The chaotic arrows were like locusts, pressing over the top, forcing people to stand upright, half of Meng San's cheeks were bleeding, he didn't care about wiping them, and when he retreated into the dark alley, he glanced at the corpses of people and horses lying on the long street, threw the knife to the ground, and smashed it on the wall with a fist!
These soldiers are the general's personal guards, and they are brave enough to kill the enemy on the battlefield, and they did not die at the border pass, but died under the walls of the imperial city!
There was blood on the wall, and the lean and swarthy young man turned his head to look at the mouth of the dark alley, and the sunlight drove into the alley, and half of the young man's blood-stained face was hideous and terrifying, and his eyes were full of pain and anger.
General......
The days of guarding the city and slaughtering Hu Lu in the northwest can't go back, right?
*
At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, falling in the backyard of the Jiangbei Navy Governor's Mansion, the back door was open, three carriages were parked outside the door, and the Yang family led the two daughters to carry things into the carriage, and the boxes were filled with dead people's bones and Duqing's codex.
Yao Huiqing pushed Xiao Fang to the door of the backyard, Luluo and Xiang'er came to the door to help, and the blood shadow swept from the mouth of the back alley, landed on the courtyard wall, and urged: "Don't move!" Get in the carriage! β
Xiang'er was startled, her eyes widened, she didn't know how the nerd of the Cui family, who was used to making some obscene poetry and glamorous words on weekdays, suddenly knew martial arts, she looked at the few remaining boxes on the ground, and said, "It's almost good, these boxes belong to the governor, and they can't be left behind." β
The blood shadow snorted, couldn't help but say, picked up Xiang'er and threw it into the carriage!
"If you want to die in Jiangnan and then die, won't you make up for it when you take out the bones and put them in the box after you die? Just accompany your family governor day and night! There was a knock in the carriage, and the blood shadow gritted her teeth outside, this girl is usually so timid that she never walks the road in front of the study, but she is bold at this time, could it be that she really has a habit of grinding mirrors?
"Hostile?" Pothos asked in a cold voice.
More than 1,000 people and horses came from the Imperial Forest Army, and the alleys around the Governor's Mansion had been sealed, except for the bone boxes in the study, they had only packed a few pieces of the girl's clothes, and their hands and feet were quick, and the blood shadow was so eager, there must be an enemy army arriving!
"Someone from the palace, Praetorian Guard!" Blood Shadow said, "Get on the carriage and escort you out, the master is still waiting outside the city gate!" β
"No!" At this time, a woman's voice came from the courtyard, and the blood shadow and the green pothos followed the prestige, and saw that Yao Huiqing had arrived at the door, "Thousands of people from the Imperial Forest Army are here to pick you up, you are still so eager, there must be a lot of people from the Praetorian Guard." These carriages carry a lot of people and goods, and they must not be able to compare with the footsteps of war horses, how can they break through? The two armies are fighting, and the soldiers will be dragged down to protect us, and the more the saint waits, the more dangerous it will be. β
"So what to do?"
"We're not leaving."
"What?"
Yao Huiqing glanced at the mouth of the alley, and the time she was talking had already heard the sound of killing, so she ordered: "Move all the boxes into the carriage, and tell the coachman to drive the carriage out of the city with the Imperial Forest Army, and we will stay in the mansion." Aunt Yang! β
Yang Shi hurriedly said: "The old slave is here, but listen to the lady's orders." β
"Do you have the clothes of ordinary people? Let's put it on and find another way to get out of the city. β
The crowd suddenly came to their senses, and led the Praetorian Guards away with their carriages, and they found another way out of the city. When they get to the outer city, they can hide as civilians first, and then go out when the wind in the city is more relaxed, so that the saints can see the opportunity to make a decision, and they don't have to wait for them outside the city, so as not to be in danger.
There was a secret passage in the city, and the blood shadow knew where the secret passage was, so he nodded when he heard the sound of killing getting louder and louder.
"Okay, that's it!"
Hopefully, hopefully, they will make it out of the city.
