Chapter 178 Chapter 176 Coup d'état

There was a big incident in Hangzhou, because a number of high-ranking officials of the yamen were assassinated at night.

After a sumptuous celebration banquet with great excitement, all the high-ranking officials went home satisfied. Because of the first battle in Hangzhou City, they won a complete victory, which made the high-ranking officials who were originally nervous relaxed, and under the sleeping effect of wine, everyone fell asleep one after another. As a result, when everyone relaxed their spirits, tragedies continued to occur, and one high-ranking official after another was assassinated, and the death was unknown. But this is not very terrible, the most terrible thing is that the heavily guarded eunuch mansion has also been invaded by the enemy, if it were not for the dedication of those brocade guard masters, the eunuch is now in a different place, but he is still seriously injured and unconscious.

In this era, when it comes to assassination, there is no one in the world who is more shrewd than the Japanese, and after the entire Warring States Rebellion, the ninjas of the failed family can hardly have a foothold in Japan, and in order to survive and develop, they have taken refuge in this remnant pirate group, and intelligence temptation and assassination are what they are best at. Jinyiwei, the world's largest intelligence assassination agency, has no way to deal with this kind of person, and is really helpless. Professional and amateur, that absolutely cannot be compared.

After the failure of the first attack, the dog unleashed the trump card in his hand. Capture the thief and capture the king first, this is the truth of the consensus of the world, kill the officials who firmly guard the city of Hangzhou, and cause chaos in the city, which is also the magic weapon of the soldiers.

This is a big event, an absolutely big event, and the lives of officials cannot be guaranteed, which is the most appalling, so just after the end of the celebration banquet, many officials' homes began to break out mourning, which is absolutely intolerable.

However, this successful assassination caused a huge shock among the officials in Hangzhou, and the assassination of their companions not only did not cause the sorrow of the surviving officials, but made them feel a huge opportunity and made them extremely excited.

The reason why these people were inexplicably excited was because they suddenly felt that yesterday's war was actually so simple, it was as simple as everyone standing at the head of the city with a group of people, and then taking out enough food and wages, and those people would fight bravely to kill the enemy. And with the tall city walls, killing the enemy is so simple, simple, as long as you yell, the enemy will be crushed.

Since the war is so simple, and after the war is over, he will receive a huge reward from the imperial court, so why should such an easy monstrous achievement be given to those Qiu Ba, who are completely competent, and will do better than them. So why let them do this monstrous achievement? It's a waste.

Therefore, this assassination of ninjas sent by the enemy into the city became the fuse and excuse for the officials to snatch the credit of the soldiers in the city this time. And the most important thing is that the eunuchs who command the guards of the city are no longer pressed on the heads of these officials, and everyone is no longer restrained.

Using this excuse and taking advantage of this opportunity to drive down those Qiu Ba who won easily, and replace them by himself, then it would be easy to move up a few levels in a row. So an inexplicable seizure of power began.

There must be a legitimate excuse for removing them and replacing them, and this assassination of an official has become such an excuse.

Originally, the responsibility for this kind of assassination should have been borne by Jinyiwei, because their duty is this, but several important officials were assassinated, and this crime is not small, especially the injury of the town guard eunuch, and a group of people are needed to carry a black cauldron, so who should be the first crime? Of course, they are the defenders of the city wall, and it is because of their negligence in protection that they have caused the current situation, so Father Zhao was immediately pointed out by Qianfu, and the people who shouted and shouted to kill were about to block his door, not only that, but he commanded the first time to escape his crime - to arrest Daddy.

"At the most tense time of this battle, the highest commander was arrested, this is simply a child's play, this is simply self-destruction, in order to protect his official position, he captured all the commanders-in-chief, and as a result, this originally tight defense line collapsed in an instant, and then let others break through the city and kill them, I don't know if they are smart or stupid." Mao Yulong stood in the original command yamen, and in the face of such a result, he really couldn't cry or laugh.

But no matter how you cry or laugh, that's the way it is, you don't have any room for flexibility, you have to accept the unspoken rules of this society, you have to accept the current reality.

A villager came over in a panic, and reported to Mao Yulong without a master: "I have just received the news from the brother of the brother in the yamen, and the political envoy has decided that tomorrow morning, he will be charged with dereliction of duty and negligence to set up arson with the enemy. ”

The meaning of the canonical punishment is very clear, that is, to kill Daddy Zhao to avenge the officials killed by the ninjas who were infiltrated by the enemy.

Father Zhao is as close as a family to himself, and he must save him from death, this is in personal feelings. In terms of the danger of Hangzhou City, because of Daddy Zhao's command ability, everyone knows that the wine bags and rice bags in Hangzhou City are absolutely irreplaceable. With Daddy Zhao and his 3,000 brothers, Hangzhou City is safe, once Daddy Zhao is killed, this Hangzhou City will be broken. In the previous life, this time Hangzhou was in turmoil, the Wanghai City Gate was breached, and the southern half of the entire Hangzhou City was slaughtered by pirates, with more than 100,000 dead and wounded. With his own presence, such a tragedy will never be allowed to happen again.

But Daddy Yang, who was relied on by himself, was directly arrested by the government, and he had to be beheaded tomorrow, so there would be no more capable people to organize resistance in Hangzhou City, and the end of the city would become inevitable.

How can I save Daddy Zhao's life? How can the government re-enable Daddy Zhao again, this has become the top priority, as for the future results, that is a matter for the future, burn your eyebrows and look at the present.

Persuade the town guard eunuch that this is a way, Mao Yulong once went, but the defending Jinyi guard said that he would not let anything in, and finally had to give up. The road is blocked, and now I have to rely on myself.

A group of soldiers surrounded Mao Yulong, looked at him blankly, and anxiously asked: "Little Xianggong, how to save Daddy Zhao?" After some careful consideration, Mao Yulong had a plan in his heart, so he smiled coldly, and said calmly to the soldiers in the full camp: "What is the relationship between you and Daddy Zhao?" ”

All the soldiers replied together: "It is General Zhao who makes us live like a person, it is Daddy Zhao who makes us live a rich life, and we are willing to live and die with Daddy Zhao." ”

"That's good, with your answer, my heart is settled." Mao Yulong has now thoroughly seen through the faces of those officials, so he is ready to make a decision, make a decision that may ruin the future of his life, this kind of decision is to protect the dear people around him, if he can't even protect the dear people around him, then how can he protect Mao Wenlong in the future? Protect Dongjiang Town, protect this Ming from being stolen by the Manchus?

"Isn't there any news from the town guard eunuch?"

All the soldiers lowered their heads, because the one who came to arrest Daddy Zhao was Jinyiwei, which showed that arresting Daddy Zhao as a scapegoat was a eunuch.

What's going on in the government?

"Groups of yamen and servants have gone to the city and taken over the signing."

The speed of picking fruits is so fast, it seems that they really don't want to use Daddy Zhao anymore, so they can only use their power to oppress them.

"Since they are unkind, there is no need to blame us for being unjust, so I propose now that the brothers of the city defense be gathered together immediately, and say that we must protect our families, go out from the south gate, enter General Yang Kuang's military camp, Hangzhou City, and let them fend for themselves."

When this decision was spoken, Mao Yulong's voice was flat, but it was this bland decision that was supported by all the soldiers.

Because all the soldiers have a grudge in their hearts, we are desperately trying to protect you, but you are doing this to us, so why should I work hard for you?

"Now don't panic, just send a few brothers to the market to convey our thoughts. Then gather all the brothers together, and be sure to remember not to explain to the signers of your leaders, everyone retreated so suddenly. ”

This is a kind of psychological pressure, and if explained, there may be opportunities for opponents to spy on their hearts. Did you really give up the guards of Hangzhou City? It's impossible, it's just a means to rescue Daddy Zhao, and it also lets those bullshit civil officials know that the military generals are their protectors and need to be respected, not betrayed.
