Chapter 100: The Feast of the Hung Gate
In a remote corner, three carriages stopped. About a hundred men gathered, and they ripped open the hay to reveal the shiny Peruvian firecracker. After a hundred men checked the guns, Scarface gave one to each person.
As a brocade-clothed guard, Scarface failed in his previous mission, although Luo Hui did not punish him. But this time, he's definitely not going to miss it!
After a hundred men got their guns, they stood by in place.
Scarface finds the shopkeeper alone and pulls out a bag of silver.
"Shopkeeper, this is a thousand taels of silver, let all your people change their clothes and go home!"
The shopkeeper waved his hand: "Uncle, the small shop still has to do business, how can you let people go home?" ”
"Your business can't be done today, and this money is your loss fee!"
The shopkeeper looked at the scar and revealed the knife, so he naturally knew what it meant, and he had no choice but to hand the silver.
Then I ran to the lobby and said to the customers, "I'm sorry, everyone, our store is closed for one day today, please come back!" ”
The guests complained, but they hadn't paid yet, and they didn't lose when they left!
After the guests and men had left, eighty big men with guns poured in through the back door. More than a dozen people changed their men's clothes, and two of them stood outside the door, stopping diners who wanted to enter.
"I'm sorry, but our store is closed today!"
The rest of the people were treated as diners, and after carefully hiding their guns, they ate the leftovers of the guests.
Even so, they all ate very happily, after all, it is the largest restaurant in Taiyuan, and the taste of the dishes is still very good.
Scarface patrolled everyone, inside and out. Reprimand those who didn't hide their guns until they are confirmed!
Luo Hui rode in a carriage, and he could only enter the city before the city gate was closed!
The soldiers defending the city quickly reported the news to Xu Dingguo, who nodded.
"In that case, Ben will give him a face and prepare a sedan chair!"
Xu Dingguo set off from the General Soldier's Mansion with 500 soldiers, and he has always been very careful since he became the Chief Soldier and held great power. As long as he goes out, he must bring a team of personal soldiers, so that he can rest assured.
Xu Dingguo was dressed in regular clothes, sat in a sedan chair, and arrived at Wei Ruixuan for half an hour.
After arriving, Xu Dingguo saw the governor, the political envoy, the envoy and the prefect's palanquin. Immediately ordered the soldiers to spread out and envelop Wei Ruixuan as a perimeter defense.
Xu Dingguo took two teams of personal soldiers, about fifty people, and entered Wei Ruixuan.
Behind Luo Hui stood Zhou Yaowu, like an iron tower. He stood at the door and looked out, and when he saw Xu Dingguo coming, he immediately smiled.
"General Xu, Ben Qincha has already taken the third floor, you can appreciate your face, Ben Qincha is very happy!"
Xu Dingguo smiled: "Lord Qincha, I've kept you waiting, let's go in!" ”
Luo Hui led Xu Dingguo into Wei Ruixuan, and his personal soldiers followed him with knives on their shoulders.
On the third floor of Wei Ruixuan, the largest officials in Shanxi were all present, which shows that the name of Qincha is not small.
"Lord Zhang, Lord Liu, Lord Zhao, Lord Li, Xu is late, please forgive me!" As soon as Xu Dingguo came, he greeted a few half-old men.
"It's okay!"
The four senior officials from Jinshi each held a folding fan, and said this, but in fact, they despised this Xu Dingguo very much in their hearts. In the past, this person was not even qualified to carry shoes for them, but only worthy of being a dog.
Now that he has military power, he is arrogant. Sometimes they even dare to meddle in local affairs.
This made these officials very unhappy, but they didn't dare to offend him. Because for this general soldier, they can avoid him and try not to meet him.
However, they did not dare not come.
can be the trusted ministers of the emperor, they naturally want to stammer!
Upstairs when the cups were being exchanged, the people in ambush downstairs took out the guns they had hidden in advance and quietly walked up under the leadership of Scarface.
"Master Wan, Xu gives you a cup!"
"Mr. Xu, you're welcome!"
At this time, Wan Bi didn't know anything about Luo Hui's plan, and he was still very happy, raising his glass and drinking it all.
"Lord Wan, we also toast you!"
After all, Wan Bi is a Beijing official, but a real power official of the Sixth Ministry, although the four big officials in Shanxi are of a higher grade than him, but the future is not necessarily as good as him.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, come on, let's drink together!"
"Well, I think I heard footsteps!"
Xu Dingguo's hand holding the wine glass stopped, and Luo Hui saw that the time had come, and immediately shouted.
"Xu Dingguo, are you guilty?"
Xu Dingguo was blinded, and at this moment, a hundred wolf-like soldiers broke into the room, holding Peruvian firearms, facing Xu Dingguo!
Xu Dingguo's personal soldiers also reacted quickly and blocked in front of him one after another.
As for Wan Bi and the four officials in Shanxi, they were completely stunned and didn't understand what was going on!
But when they saw that it was the conflict between Luo Hui and Xu Dingguo, they were also quite smart, and they stayed away from these two people.
Xu Dingguo looked at Luo Hui and gritted his teeth. Looking at this battle, Xu Dingguo knew that this was a Hongmen banquet against him!
I didn't expect him to take precautions, but he still fell into the plan. This hundred people, a hundred guns, only one round of fire, and his own soldiers will be beaten into a sieve. The soldiers outside were even more late to react, it was really calculating!
"Lord Qincha, if you have something to say, what is Xu's crime! If you really wanted that money, I would have given it back to you! ”
Xu Dingguo tried to convince Luo Hui to let him out once Luo Hui let him out. He would immediately kill Luo Hui and these officials, and then surrender to the Manchus!
The corners of Luo Hui's mouth curved, and since he had already exposed his fangs. How could he take it back?
"Xu Dingguo, it's okay if you intercept Ben Qincha's salary, but you shouldn't secretly communicate with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and it will be a disaster for people like you to stay!"
"Secretly through the Manchu Qing?"
Wan Bi and the four officials looked at Xu Dingguo's faces and changed. Xu Dingguo's expression changed even more, he didn't expect Luo Hui to even know such a secret thing when he first came to Taiyuan.
"Someone, there's an assassin!"
Xu Dingguo shouted downstairs, at this time he could only hope that the fallen soldiers would arrive early.
"You don't have a chance, ignition!"
Luo Hui gave an order, and fifty people lit the line of fire. The soldiers downstairs also hurried upstairs, but their speed was limited, and they couldn't keep up with the speed at which the lead burned.
Only a dense and uneven sound of firecrackers was heard for a while, and ammunition erupted from the firecrackers. The flames of anger shot towards the loyal soldiers cultivated by Xu Dingguo.
With a burst of screams, Xu Dingguo's personal soldiers fell in pieces, these are his most loyal personal soldiers, accumulated from more than ten years of testing, and now they are all reimbursed.
