Chapter 479: The Apocalypse Big Bang
"Chen Hanlin, I've been looking for you for a long time!"
Yang Xin looked at Chen Renxi, who was escorted to him by Luo Rucai and others, and said with a sincere face.
The latter sighed.
"Master Hou, this thief still wants to bribe the little one."
Luo Rucai righteously offered those silver tickets, jade pendants, silver and the like.
"I've rewarded you, what is Chen Renxi's reward?"
Yang Xin said.
"Back to the Governor, one thousand taels!"
Cui Yingyuan hurriedly said.
"Take a thousand taels to these brothers, you are that Luo Rucai, right? Now I'm the captain, I'll add another star to you when I go back, and I'll be the captain when there's a shortage. You two are Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng, right? One person also adds a star, and there will be a shortage of captains in the future! ”
Yang Xin said.
The three thieves hurriedly lay down and thanked them, and then left happily with their bounty.
"Chen Hanlin, do you still need to be tortured?"
Yang Xin then asked Chen Renxi.
"Of course, Chen is a traitor, and if Your Excellency wants to frame him by killing the king, Chen will not give in."
Chen Renxi said.
"What other hope do you have? Do you want to keep your image as a loyal and righteous man by insisting on not admitting to kill the king, and then expect others to save you? Do you think there is anyone else who can save you? Do you think that with the current situation in the DPRK and China, Ye Xianggao and those people can continue to protect you? Can I keep you? Are you too whimsical? ”
Yang Xin said.
In fact, Wen Zhenmeng and Li Yingsheng did not confess at this time, including Wu Changshi, and the few dead soldiers who were caught were also very hard-mouthed.
These people should have had a plan.
"Hejian Hou, please wait and see."
Chen In-seok said with a confident smile.
"Then I'll wait and see, escort him to the execution chamber and serve him well!"
Yang Xin said.
Choi Young-won immediately escorted Chen In-seok to the execution chamber.
"Do they still have something to rely on?"
Xu Xianchun said suspiciously.
"This matter is a bit troublesome, and if you don't get it right, it's going to be very big!"
Yang Xin said.
Wen Zhenmeng's performance was obviously planned, they thought about how to deal with it once they failed, and Ye Xianggao and others definitely didn't have to rely on them, in fact, everyone understood that they no longer had the ability to turn over in the court. Nine thousand years old has basically completed control over the years, not to mention complete control of the imperial court, at least it has become the largest political force, and it can be said that it has formed an absolute advantage over the old and new Donglin Party.
Wen Zhenmeng and these people can't really have any hope of turning over in the imperial court.
Then it's outside the imperial court.
"This is going to be a decisive battle!"
Yang Xin sighed.
Suddenly, a faint thunderclap came into his ears.
"How does it thunder in the first month!"
Xu Xianchun exclaimed.
"It's not thunder, it's an explosion!"
After Yang Xin finished speaking, he pushed open the window and looked at the night sky in the south, there seemed to be a faint red light flashing, but he waited for about twenty seconds before the second same explosion sound came to his ears......
"Let's go, go to Nanyuan!"
He said.
Nanyuan.
"Let's go, brother!"
Zhang Ming roared.
In front of him, a dead soldier holding a powder keg slammed into the approaching soldier without hesitation, and the fuse burning on the powder keg frightened the soldiers into scattering and fleeing, and then the dead man and the powder keg turned into the flames of an explosion, and the power of the explosion swept around.
"Let's go!"
Zhang Mingzhen immediately got up.
Xu Du and the others beside him got up one after another and left the building like crazy.
This is their powder keg.
Their gunpowder is in Nanyuan, this kind of thing must be hidden in a safe place, and Nanyuan or Nanhaizi is a forbidden garden, how can it be more secure than here? Outsiders are not allowed to enter here at all, only the Jingjun guarding Nanhaizi, who are actually eunuchs, and there are also sea households who grow vegetables, but there are actually not many people in the entire wetland with a circumference of more than 100 miles, and there are abandoned buildings everywhere. This place is managed by the eunuch Nanhaizi, the Hakka store some goods here, and live some guards, which is not just a casual sentence.
Not only is the gunpowder stored here, but also some of the dead soldiers led by Zhang Mingzhen are also here.
They came here as soon as they escaped from the city.
And the eunuchs here don't know their true identities at all, it will take some time for the news of the city to reach here after all, not to mention that this is not a small place, the entire circumference is more than a hundred miles, and those who know their relationship with the Hakka are probably Admiral Nanhaizi and several major eunuchs.
As for the pursuing officers and soldiers, they would not have thought that they were actually in Nanyuan,
They can prepare in stride.
Zhang Mingzhen has been waiting for the other dead soldiers in the city who have not been exposed, as well as Xu Du's other three friends Dai Shugao, Dai Facong, and Ding Ruzhang to escape from the rendezvous, and then he is ready to escape from Nanyuan. It dragged on until dark, but at this time, the eunuch Nanhaizi knew what was happening in the city, guessed the identities of these people, and then summoned the official army to besiege it.
And then it's now.
Zhang Mingzhen and others quickly fled the powder magazine.
But at the same time a large group of cavalry appeared, and immediately after that, they came straight from the flank.
"Reinforcement of the Korean Army!"
Dai Facong said.
The cavalry quickly formed a line in the moonlight, spears in one hand on horseback, and kept coming closer to form a wall of horsemen, crushing the winter weeds.
A group of people immediately fell into a panic.
At this time, they were completely on a barren and grassy flat land, on one side was the building that had just fled, but the officers and soldiers who had been bombed back had also been re-encircled, and they would soon occupy the warehouse, and on this side were the cavalry in formation, even if they escaped, they would definitely not be able to outrun the cavalry, and no matter how brave they were in the face of such a riding wall, they would not have the strength to resist at all......
"Ma's, fight!"
Zhang Ming roared.
After speaking, he held a seedling knife in both hands and looked at the riding wall with a resolute face.
Xu Du also stood beside him.
The other dead soldiers also went out, waiting around them, waiting for the last desperate fight, although Xu Du was a literati and a son of a family, but he really regarded these reckless people as brothers. This person is similar to Chao Gai in the Water Margin, otherwise he would not have let tens of thousands of people rebel with him with a word, and when the army was defeated, in order to fight for his subordinates to survive, despite the dissuasion of his cronies, he resolutely went to surrender alone. He treats his subordinates like a son of a family, and in the eyes of these dead soldiers, he is truly worthy of death, and now he is truly ready to live and die with him.
"Brothers, be brothers again on Huangquan Road!"
Xu Du shouted.
"Be a brother on Huangquan Road!"
The dead roared.
The horse wall in front of them was crushed, and the sound of the hooves of hundreds of cavalry galloping wildly was like thunder, and even the shaking of the ground could be heard clearly.
Dai Facong suddenly looked at the warehouse......
"Hurry up, I have a way to stop them!"
He shouted.
With that, he ran wildly towards the warehouse.
Xu Du and Zhang Mingzhen looked at each other......
"Let's go!"
Dai Facong turned around and shouted.
"Let's go!"
Zhang Mingzhen made a quick decision.
After saying that, he turned around and ran, and then Xu Du and the remaining thirty dead soldiers followed, and at the same time Dai Facong also rushed into the warehouse, they didn't care about any more and continued to run wildly, and those officers and soldiers gradually approached the warehouse, and the back wall continued to accelerate. Soon the first batch of officers and soldiers poured into the warehouse, and the riding wall behind was less than ten zhang away from the backs of Zhang Mingzhen and others, and a flat spear shook in front of the horse, and the blade of the spear reflected the cold moonlight.
Zhang Mingzhen and Xu both ran wildly with those dead soldiers.
The two who fell behind were swallowed up by the riding wall in an instant.
This terrifying riding wall was like a monster, and the power of the elite cavalry's attack in formation made these high-rollers tremble, and their martial arts were as fragile as a vase in the face of such an attack.
In the blink of an eye, the distance was less than five feet.
Zhang Mingzhen roared, turned around abruptly, and raised his knife with both hands......
Almost at the same time, the warehouse in front of him, thirty feet apart, was like a flaming monster arching out of the ground, tearing the entire warehouse into countless pieces from the outside, and then instantly engulfed by the flames of the explosion.
Then the sky cracked like a loud bang against his eardrums.
He subconsciously opened his mouth to let out a heart-rending scream, and then the violent air wave impact made the entire riding wall fall in front of him at once, and he was also directly overturned by this huge force, he felt like a toy that was beaten by a child, rolling on the ground involuntarily, and the strange thing was that he couldn't hear any sound around him, dust, gravel, and gunpowder smoke hit his body like waves.
He clenched his head and let out a scream that he couldn't even hear.
I don't know how long it took, his world finally returned to normal, and then countless wails came, he looked at a wailing cavalryman not far away, then shook his head, and stood up with some difficulty, looking around blankly in the dust and smoke like a thick fog.
All around, people turned on their backs.
All the cavalry, men and horses, were overturned by the force of the explosion of 2,000 pounds of gunpowder.
Of course, they are also included.
However, they suffered the lightest losses, although there were a lot of 2,000 catties of gunpowder, but this was not the detonation of the underground to weaken the power to the maximum, even if 2,000 catties of gunpowder was actually a small aerial bomb, it was estimated that it could not even reach the 250-pound level. They were thirty feet away from the warehouse, that is, they were knocked over, and the cavalry were closer than them after all, and almost all of them were overturned and fell to the ground in the impact of the explosion.
And the frightened war horses screamed in the smoke and dust, and ran wildly like headless flies.
All that was left of the warehouse was a fiery red.
Dai Facong used his life to ignite 2,000 catties of gunpowder and end the pursuit of the officers and soldiers.
Zhang Mingzhen picked up a spear on the ground as a crutch in despair, and walked with a limp, and soon he saw Xu Du, the latter and Ding Ruzhang were also struggling to stand up, Zhang Mingzhen stepped forward to pull them up, and the three of them were like pictures in the movie, supporting each other and walking forward.
Then some more dead soldiers joined one after another, and Dai Shugao also escaped, and in the end, the four of them, plus ten dead soldiers, and fourteen people stumbled into the darkness.
