Fengyang Mansion, Changhuaiwei.

When Li Shaoyou led the 3,000 Royal Cavalry Regiment to Changhuaiwei, the Jinyi Guard's Neiying had already taken control of the city gate and took down the thousand households defending the city.

The gates of the city were slowly opened, and the torrent of cavalry poured into the city, scaring the captured Changhuai Wei Qianhu and several Baihu half to death.

The cavalrymen in front of them were all sturdy, all wearing fine red tasseled helmets, and the heavy black armor on their bodies was cold and terrifying, and the sergeants staring at the bull's eyes made people shiver when they looked at them.

Several guards and generals sighed in their hearts, worthy of being the crown prince's men and horses, and the equipment of an ordinary cavalry can catch up with their own five or six generals.

At the same time that several generals were cold, those general banners and guards were no better, all of them trembled, fortunately they were captured and opened the city gate, if they were killed by these people, these fierce cavalry, if they didn't do well, they would be killed.

Li Shaoyou's troops did not stop, leading the army all the way into the city, and the royal cavalry regiment of the brigade poured in from the city gate, and they counted the horses and marched neatly, and the iron hooves hit the bluestone street, making a neat roar.

The horses' hooves were rumbling and extremely oppressive, and some landlords and gentry who were doing things on the street looked at these cavalrymen as if they were in a no-man's land, not knowing what had happened.

The people of the city hid in their homes in horror, staring out through the cracks in the doors and windows.

"By order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Tianwu Army will take over Changhuaiwei, and the people don't need to panic!"

The soldiers and generals of Changhuai Wei were stunned, why did the Tianwu Army come to the city, why did they enter the city directly? Which thief opened the gates?

"How is this good......" Some of the gentry and businessmen who were watching the play above their attic looked extremely nervous, and felt that things were a little too big.

"Kill them! They're here to rob us of our land! A large landlord shouted loudly, calling the private army against them.

"Let's get rid of them together and protect our property!" Someone immediately responded.

A family member asked weakly: "Master, will these military masters use knives to kill us?" ”

The landlord Lao Cai smiled and said: "I heard that the crown prince's army does not kill the people, and whoever does it will be executed by military law, just beat!" Fight to the death! If I kill a master, I will reward ten taels of silver! ”

"Huh? And such soldiers? The man smiled, and rushed forward with his spear, trying to stab one of the horsemen down.

Li Shaoyou said coldly: "Armed man, kill!" Attack our soldiers, kill! ”

Li Shaoyou immediately stepped forward and pierced a landlord who rushed up with a shot, and then shot the yelling landlord away.

The cavalry behind him, armed with cold spears, also began to mercilessly exterminate the rebellious gentry and landlords in the city.

"What's going on? Didn't the lord say that these military masters don't kill the people? How do you ......?" said one of the housekeepers.

"The master himself is cold, let's run!"

Another discerning family member hurriedly threw down the weapon in his hand, searched for the key to the vault from the old man lying on the ground, and then ran back to the house to start cleaning up, and by the way, abducted the old man's concubine.

Some other landlords and gentry who were engaged in things saw that the Tianwu army had begun to kill people, and immediately cried and shouted that their fathers and mothers were in a mess, and they fled for their lives, and closed the door of the house after returning home.

The commander of Changhuaiwei had already arrived with the family and the guards, and there were some landlords who had gathered temporarily, and a group of disorganized family members had no discipline at all, and they were scolding there.

The commander of Chang Huaiwei shouted: "After retreating from the enemy, each person will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver and 100 acres of fertile land!" ”

When these soldiers and family members heard this, they cheered for a while, but when he saw the men and horses of the Tianwu Army, he regretted it a little, damn, why are there so many people! What a!

Li Shaoyou didn't care what the other party thought, and directly ordered to defeat this man with a thunderous momentum, complete the task in a short time, and go back to the errand.

"Kill!"

One after another, the endless killing aura of the iron stream carriers rushed towards the enemy army, and some of the guards and family members were stunned by the terrifying momentum in front of them, and their legs were frightened and weakened.

"Run! Kill! One of the guards threw down his weapon and ran.

A few weapons fell to the ground and made a crisp sound, which woke everyone up, and with a bang, the guards and family members who had just gathered collapsed collectively and began to flee in all directions, and a few of them were so frightened that their legs were weak and they had already collapsed on the ground and surrendered.

Chang Huaiwei commanded the envoy to shout there, but no one listened to him, which made him very depressed, he was fierce like a tiger when he bullied the people on weekdays, how could he be cowardly now......

There was no way, so he had to run away.

The iron hooves slammed on the hard ground, making a dull sound, like a deadly drum beat to make people's hearts beat with it, Li Shaoyou led the men and horses to chase and kill, he wanted to let this group of rebels know that there was only one end for daring to provoke the crown prince, and that was death!

In the Changhuai Guard, the Royal Knights began a ruthless pursuit, mainly targeting the officers and soldiers of the guard who wore mandarin duck jackets, and along the way, they also gave a knife to the family with weapons in their hands.

The defeated guards had no combat effectiveness at all, leaving only corpses and blood stains along the way.

Li Shaoyou's voice sounded in the city: "Continue to clean up the troublemakers in the city, and all those involved in the troublemakers will be locked up and raided!" ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※

After two days of quelling the rebellion, all the Eight Guards were controlled by the Tianwu Army, and the number of guards who were exterminated amounted to 1,000 people, and the officials and gentry and landlords killed a large number of people, and seized countless fields and family assets.

Zhu Cihong issued an order that all civil officials above the prefect level and military generals above the fourth rank of the guard in Nanzhili should all go to the Fengyang Emperor's Mausoleum within three days, and all those who were late or did not come were dismissed, and the military generals of the battalions in various places continued to guard their respective places to strictly prevent the rogues from violating the border.

On the third day, hundreds of civil and military generals of Nanzhili all entered the forbidden wall Fengtian Hall to see the driver, and the officials on both sides of the division lined up outside the gate of the main hall.

Zhu Cihong's eyes swept to Li Tingbiao on the side and said, "How is the situation with the Eight Guards?" ”

Li Tingbiao bowed down and said in a low voice: "Back to Your Highness, except for the suicide of the commander of the Fengyang Zhongwei, half of the other major generals of the guards were arrested, plus the civil officials of the thirteen counties of the five prefectures, this operation, a total of 632 civil and military officials above the ninth rank were captured, and more than 1,200 soldiers were rebellious. ”

Li Tingbiao continued: "Jinyiwei also discovered that the commander of the Eighth Guard had conspired with bandits, and the commander of the right guard of Fengyang could testify. ”

The commander of Fengyang's right guard is the one who took the initiative to open the city and surrender that day, and he has a very good attitude of admitting his mistakes after surrendering, and he is also very cooperative with Jinyiwei's investigation, and he is a worry-free person.

The entire Fengyang Mansion was almost served in one pot, and the ruthless methods of the crown prince made the hearts of the civil and military officials present feel awe-inspiring, and there was silence in the Fengtian Palace, only Li Tingbiao's deep voice echoed in the main hall.

Zhu Cihong nodded, and asked Li Tingbiao to review the charges of the arrested officials, and be sure not to wronged a good person, let alone let a bad person go.

Subsequently, Zhu Cihong announced the appointment and dismissal of all officials in Fengyang Mansion.

Zhu Cihong appointed Yang Tinglin as the acting prefect of Fengyang Prefecture, and selected the prisoners of the Guozijian who joined the Yongwei Battalion that year as the acting magistrates of the thirteen counties of the five prefectures according to their abilities, and the acting county Cheng, and later reported to the imperial court for formal appointment by the Ministry of Officials.

These civil and military officials in Nanzhili were a little stunned by the crown prince's operation, and they transferred all the officials from all over the country in such a big way, but he didn't say a word about the disposal of the officials who committed the crime, but only arranged some officials, what does this mean?
