Chapter 4: The Wang Mutiny

The storm is coming, and in the imperial study, five people came one after another, namely Prince Kang, the fourth brother of Emperor Hui, Mu Yuzheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Xiao Cheng, the commander of the Inner Guard, Tong Lin, the servant of the Criminal Department, and Chen Lin, the old general of Wuping Hou. Everyone gathered all the soldiers who could be mobilized outside the palace, Emperor Wen was silent, and the other five did not dare to speak. The whole study room was extremely quiet and the atmosphere was heavy.

Suddenly, a window on the west side of the imperial study was suddenly blown open, and a cold wind poured in, and the books on the desk were blown to the ground. Emperor Wen glanced out the window, the sky was a little gloomy, and it seemed that it was going to rain. Father-in-law Zou hurriedly asked someone to go up and close the window, while he bent down and picked up the books one by one. At this time, a spy came quickly, just crossed the threshold of the study, and then knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Zhishu and the soldiers of the Wang family have rushed to the direction of the palace. ”

A few people present seemed to have expected it and did not show much surprise. Emperor Wen forced his composure and said, "Probe again." Hearing this, the spy got up and left the imperial study.

Wuping Hou Chen Lin said with a serious expression: "Wang Zhishu is still here after all. ”

As a member of the royal family, Prince Kang was a little anxious and asked the sergeant outside the study: "Is there any news from the forbidden army?" As soon as the sergeant outside the door heard the prince's question, he hurriedly left to inquire about the news.

Emperor Wen said helplessly: "Master Mo should be in the forbidden army camp. The crowd fell silent again.

Jianye City, the west gate, a scholar in a white shirt hurriedly wanted to enter the city, but the city defense army under the city wall was already assembled, and the city gate was about to be closed, and a group of people were stopped and forbidden to enter and exit. Seeing this, the scholar expected that something big must have happened in Jianye City, otherwise he would not close the city gate before Shen Shi arrived, he stepped forward quickly, wanting to enter the city before the city gate was closed, and as soon as he passed through the crowd, several city guards stopped him head-on. The scholar turned to one side and secretly crashed into one of the city guards, and the two fell to the ground. Seeing this, the rest of the city guards came up to pick up the fallen sergeant. The Baijing scholar took the opportunity to quickly get up and ran into the city as soon as he slipped through the smoke. The sergeant who was helped up scolded and wanted to chase after him, but the rest of the people stopped him and said, "General Cao ordered me to assemble, what are you running around." In desperation, he could only give up.

The scholar trotted all the way, and when he saw that no one came up to catch up, he slowed down, came to a corner, rested for a while, and found that there were small groups of soldiers coming and going back and forth in the city, and their expressions were extremely nervous, and some large and small shops were closing, it seemed that something big would happen in this Jianye City. The scholar walked for a while, stopped an old man, and asked him how to get to the staff office of the military department, and the old man hurried home, hurriedly pointed him in the direction, and left quickly.

Bai Jing scholar followed the direction and finally found the staff office of the Ministry of War, but the door of the house was closed, and he was about to go up and knock on the door to try, when suddenly the door opened, and a team of soldiers from the staff office rushed out of the house. The scholar hurriedly grabbed a government soldier and asked, "Master Jun, do you know where Dong Yun is?" ”

The government soldiers who were held back were about to have a seizure, but when they heard the white-faced scholar ask about their commander, they suppressed their anger and asked, "Who are you?" What are you looking for in our Dong Commander? ”

When the scholar heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly replied: "My name is Sun Lin, and I am Senior Brother Dong Yun, I don't know where Senior Brother Dong is now?" ”

Several government soldiers looked the scholar up and down, saw that he looked harmless to humans and animals, and said: "Commander Dong is outside the palace, you want to find him, come with us." Sun Lin didn't say a word, followed behind the soldiers, and rushed all the way to the outside of the palace.

The soldiers of the Wang family have come to the White Tiger Gate outside the palace, and Dong Yun and a thousand soldiers of the staff have been waiting for a long time. Wang Zhishu recognized Dong Yun, he was not surprised, if it went smoothly and let him enter the palace without resistance, he would have doubts. Now that he had decided to mutiny, Wang Zhishu no longer cared about more, and with a wave of his hand, several masters of the palace rushed over with the rebels.

Seeing Wang Zhisu so crisp, Dong Yun was not in a hurry, commanded the heavily armored sergeants, lifted the heavy shield in front, and a large number of crossbowmen behind him shot bursts of bows and arrows, and the rebels in the front row were suppressed by bows and arrows for a while, and many people were stabbed and fell to the ground. The three masters of the rebel leader, seeing that the bow and crossbow of the staff office soldiers were quite sharp, the three of them moved quickly, avoiding the bow and crossbow and wanted to rush directly into the formation to kill the crossbowman, Dong Yun lifted the long sword, quickly jumped out of the military formation, and directly met him, behind him, the two officers of the staff office also followed, and the three of them went out to meet the three masters of the Wang family. The six of them fought in one place, and the three masters of the Wang family were originally from the green forests in the Jiangdong area, one made a sword, and two made a knife, and they all had some means in their hands.

Dong Yun is less than a year old, his stature is medium, but the whole person is extremely strong, his eyebrows and eyes are deep, and he is born with a heroic spirit, he is the master of the Wang family's sword, and the two long swords are quickly staggered for a few rounds, Dong Yun found that this person is extremely tricky and ruthless every time, selects the key points, and every time he goes all out, without reservation, this kind of kung fu must be tempered on the edge of life and death for a long time. Dong Yun didn't dare to slack off, his long sword threw out a few bursts of sword flowers, entangled the opponent, waiting for an opportunity to find an opportunity to give a blow.

The two officers of the staff office around him faced the other two masters of the Wang clan, and within a few rounds, there were a lot of blood marks on their bodies. Dong Yun saw sideways, he knew that although these soldiers of the General Staff Office were subordinate to the Ministry of War, they had been staying in Jianye and had hardly experienced battlefield battles, and now in the face of the veterans of the Green Forest, it was not easy for them to save their lives. The two Wang masters on the opposite side obviously also knew, and the two of them stepped forward quickly, using all the means in their hands, and attacked the two officers of the General Staff Office again. Dong Yun couldn't help but worry, these officers and the sergeants of the General Staff Office were mixed with him on weekdays, and he also trained them with all his might, hoping that one day this army of soldiers could have strong combat power, today is a challenge, only after the baptism of life and death, can we truly understand the way to survive on the battlefield, but this kind of baptism is too cruel, the three of the Wang family have such means when they come out casually, I don't know how many soldiers of the General Staff Office can stay after this war.

Not far away, the soldiers of the Wang Mansion gathered again, Wang Zhisu was a little anxious, and ordered to rush over, and the crossbowmen of the Staff Office shot bows and arrows again, but this time the front team of the Wang's Mansion soldiers raised their heavy shields and blocked the bows and arrows, and the rebels advanced quickly, and it didn't take long for the heavy shields of the two armies to collide in one place. Behind the heavy shield sergeant of the General Staff, he kept stabbing out spears, and many people in the rebel front team were pierced through their chests by spears and fell to the ground one after another.

In the Wang rebels, suddenly two slender swordsmen jumped high, and jumped into the army formation of the staff office in one fell swoop, after landing, the long swords in the hands of the two people stabbed behind the heavy shield sergeant very quickly, the action was extremely clean and neat, the front row of the staff office heavy shield sergeant fell more than ten people in an instant, the gap was opened, the rebels waved their blades and the staff office soldiers scuffled in one place, in front of the white tiger gate, for a while shouted killing, wailing continuously.

In the imperial study, the spies came to report that the Wang rebels were stopped in front of the White Tiger Gate by the soldiers of the General Staff, and the two sides were fighting, and the battle situation was difficult to distinguish for a while. Prince Kang asked Emperor Wen: "Your Majesty, do you need to send several other defenders to support the White Tiger Gate?" ”

Emperor Wen gritted his teeth and replied coldly: "Don't move." He knew in his heart that the city defense army had not yet come, and at this time he would dispatch several other defenders, in case the city defense army took advantage of the situation to enter, the consequences would be even more unbearable, and he could only hope that Dong Yun could hold the White Tiger Gate and hold on until the forbidden army came. But the camp of the forbidden army still did not move.

Dong Yun saw that the two armies were fighting in one place, he used his strength in his hands, forced back the master of the Wang clan with a sword, and turned to look at the other two officers, both of whom were leaning back together, both of them were very embarrassed, and one of them was heavily cut by a knife in the leg, and he was bleeding profusely. The other person was slightly better, but he was also injured in many places, but the two of them were full of fighting spirit and did not back down at all, which made Dong Yun very pleased. He hurried over, the long sword quickly stabbed out, forcing back the two of the Wang family, and holding the officer who was injured in the leg and standing unsteadily, asked anxiously: "Liang Kun, Lin Shen, are you all right?" ”

Liang Kun covered his injured leg and said a little unwillingly: "It's okay." Lin Shen nodded firmly on the side.

Dong Yun asked the two of them to retreat in front of the White Tiger Gate first, and took a step forward with his sword. The three leaders of the Wang rebel army saw that Dong Yun had a posture of one enemy and three enemies, and their faces were quite contemptuous, and the three of them slowly moved a few steps, forming an encirclement of Dong Yun, ready to kill with one blow. Dong Yun looked at the three of them coldly, the energy in his body was radiating, and the long sword in his hand faintly glowed with a layer of light blue sword. When the three of them saw Dong Yun's changes, their faces suddenly became solemn. Before the three of them could react, Dong Yun's body moved, and suddenly rushed towards one of the leaders of the sword, the long sword stabbed at his lower ribs at a strange angle, and the opponent hurriedly returned the knife to block it, Dong Yun was about to hit the back of the knife when the long sword was about to hit the back of the sword, and suddenly the tip of the sword rose, and the blue sword light at the front of the sword body suddenly gushed out, and the brush pierced through his chest. The other two hurried over and slashed at Dong Yun's back with a sword. Seizing the short gap, Dong Yun's left hand quickly slapped out, and the leader of the knife was knocked to the ground, blood gushed out of his mouth, and after two convulsions, the whole person lay on the ground and stood still. Dong Yun turned around and swung his sword, picking away the swords of the other two, he didn't intend to give the opponent a chance, a momentary step, around the back of the two, drew a sword ray, and flew towards the backs of the two. The two of them had been living and dying for a long time, and hurriedly squatted down, and at the same time landed on one foot, turned around, and the blades in their hands came out to meet Dong Yun's sword head-on.

The sword and the sword collided together, the sword was powerful, and the two of them hurriedly took the move, and they were knocked away a few steps and fell to the ground. Before the two of them could get up, Dong Yun's long sword had quickly stabbed out, pointing directly at each other's chests, and the two of them couldn't react and were a little at a loss.

Just as the tip of the sword was about to pierce into the opponent's chest, suddenly a scimitar flew in from not far away and collided with Dong Yun's long sword, Dong Yun only felt a shock from the tiger's mouth, and a little sore. The two people who fell to the ground escaped death and quickly got up and ran away. Dong Yun returned his sword and looked in the direction where the scimitar came, a short green-robed old man stood not far away, his whole face was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were glowing green, and the corners of his mouth twitched a little, as if he was smiling, which was extremely weird. In his right hand he held a black scimitar, the same one that had just hit the longsword.
