Chapter 688 Riding the Public Opinion to Spread the More
The galloping horses are coming in an instant.
On horseback, the spear in Wu Sangui's hand unceremoniously stabbed his teacher in the chest.
And his teacher turned to one side in an instant, followed by a shout, and the sword held high above his head slashed down in the air......
The spear pierced into the air.
The sword didn't split the air.
With a crash of steel, Shi Kefa's sword hit Wu Sangui's chest, creating a striking spark on the polished plate armor, but that was all, the latter's sturdy cuirass was completely immune to this attack, and the sword didn't even cut through this layer of protection. At the same time, Wu Sangui's war horse violently collided with Shi Kefa, who was directly knocked to the ground and flew upside down, and then smashed into the dirt at the bridgehead, but he didn't die, just lay there struggling to get up.
Wu Sangui controlled the war horse and slowly moved forward.
"Sir, you're really a mantis arm!"
He said with his head bowed.
Shi Kefa on the ground gave up his efforts to stand up, and he spit out a mouthful of blood after being hit hard in his internal organs, and did not answer Wu Sangui, but crawled slowly to the side.
Wu Sangui looked at him with disdain, but he didn't continue to attack.
Anyway, he is also a teacher, although he taught him for three months, and during this period, he was punished many times because of his stubbornness, but after all, he has the status of master and apprentice, and it is definitely not possible to kill the teacher, and there is no need to continue, this appearance will not live long, he immediately raised the spear in his hand upward.
"Let's go, go to Kaifeng, it's time for us to get rich!"
He shouted.
On the pontoon bridge stretching behind him, the cavalry immediately let out a roar of excitement.
This is the main target of their journey without having time to loot, but just rushing wildly, and there are gold and silver treasures in Kaifeng City.
Then Wu Sangui urged the war horse and stepped over Shi Kefa's body, the latter was still crawling, Wu Sangui took one last look at his teacher, and walked straight forward with great ambition, although his father's old thinking still made him the top student in the imperial examination, but he never thought about it like this. Although he is still young, he also knows that the way of the world has changed, and the king of Zhennan prefers to be able to fight, and as the leader of the new generation of the Wu family, he wants to use his exploits to break through Kaifeng and let the king of Zhennan see his talent.
As long as King Zhennan sees him, the wealth of the Wu family can continue.
Kaifeng City could already be vaguely seen in front of him, but he also saw a gray cloud on the horizon farther away......
"Quick, someone is taking the lead!"
He shouted.
But the next moment he was dumbfounded.
Behind him, Shi Kefa had already crawled to the side of the cannon, and was reclining on the gun wheel, stretching out his right hand to fumble and pick up a flintlock pistol discarded by the rout.
"Old Puff!"
Wu Sangui immediately scolded.
Without hesitation, he pulled out his short gun and pulled the trigger at Scofa.
The bullet was hitting Shi Kefa's body and burrowed directly into his abdomen, but Shi Kefa still slowly picked up the flintlock pistol as if he didn't realize it, and raised it with both hands tremblingly, Wu Sangui immediately rushed straight over with horror, and the spear in his hand pierced Shi Kefa's body without hesitation. Shi Kefa raised his head and smiled at him, his cold sweat broke out, because the muzzle of the gun in Shi Kefa's hand was not pointed at him, but pointed horizontally in front of him to the other side of the cannon......
"Retreat!"
Wu Sangui suddenly screamed.
The next moment, Shi Kefa on the ground pulled the trigger with a smile.
Accompanied by the flame sprayed from the muzzle, a bullet instantly hit the powder keg on the other side of the cannon, and the bullet that penetrated the barrel with the temperature of the discharge was also detonated in an instant, and the soldiers under Shi Kefa, who did not have any actual combat experience, piled up a full ten pokes there in order to facilitate the use of gunpowder. The explosion of a barrel of gunpowder ignited the remaining nine barrels, and finally turned into an earth-shattering explosion, and the furious flames instantly engulfed Shi Kefa and Wu Sangui, who was jumping off the war horse.
Their master and apprentice were torn apart by the power of hundreds of catties of gunpowder at the same time.
Then the flames of the explosion engulfed the bridgehead, and the chains holding the pontoon bridge in place turned into countless jets of iron in the flames.
There was a scream of terror on the pontoon.
The pontoon bridge, which had lost its fixed end at one end, was immediately pushed downstream by the river, and the cavalry on the bridge crowded in confusion and fell one after another to the surging Yellow River......
Shi Kefa finally succeeded.
He used his sacrifice to stop Wu Xiang's army.
Of course, Shi Kefa and Wu Sangui's death did not save the king of Zhou and the gentry in Kaifeng City.
He only temporarily blocked Wu Xiang.
But it was cheaper than Yu Shiwei.
In the southeast of Kaifeng City, You Shiwei and his subordinate cavalry looked at the mushroom cloud rising here with stunned eyes.
Half an hour later, this guy who had already ransacked Guide rushed into Kaifeng with his subordinates, and then began to ransack the Kaifeng gentry, and even rushed into the palace of the king of Zhou. Of course, these are all clans, and You Shiwei will definitely not loot them, as for the damage caused to some altars and jars when he was arrested in the palace and those county kings, this is forgivable......
Besides, the Diao people in Kaifeng City also took the opportunity to make trouble, and the rout soldiers also took the opportunity to loot, in short, those Tianhuang nobles found that they had become poor eggs afterwards, and this must not be blamed on his head.
Fighting!
That's it.
Why can't there be a heavenly street that tramples the bones of the princess or something.
And Wu Xiang, who learned that his son died in battle for the king of Zhennan and Kaifeng was also grabbed by You Shiwei, could only wipe away his tears on the north bank......
If the son is dead, he will die!
He didn't say that he just had a son, in fact, he had a bunch of sons, and besides, he was still in his prime, and he could have as many children as he wanted in the future, but if he missed the opportunity to get rich, he would not have it.
He did lose the fat of Kaifeng.
But there is still on the north bank of the Yellow River, because he was in a hurry to grab Kaifeng first, he didn't loot along the way, even in the nearest Wei Hui was directly bypassed outside the city, and now Kaifeng is not fishing, so he can only turn back to see how much he can fish. In fact, there are also things that can be fished in the back, King Huaiqing Zheng, King Weihui Lu are rich, and they can even turn their heads to go to the Daimyo's Mansion, and if they can't do it, they can also go to Lu'an Mansion, which is the northern silk center, in short, he still has a place to make a fortune.
In this way, Wu Xiang gave up going south and concentrated on sweeping the provinces on the north bank.
At the same time that You Shiwei entered Kaifeng, Hong Chengchou attacked Linqing, and he would continue to go south along the canal, while Luo of the northern line turned around and killed Niangziguan to prepare to rob Lu'an, and Zhou Yujibu bypassed the Linqing starry night and went straight to the Daimyo, and he would turn to meet Hong Chengchou in Dongchang after sweeping the Daimyo. After the Yang family broke through Dezhou, they went straight to Jinan, and even some of the Yang family members who were originally in eastern Hebei had already begun to board the ship at this time to prepare for landing in Denglai......
In fact, Dengzhou has been controlled by the Yang family.
When he ran the Beiyang Naval Division before, Yang Xin established a large-scale industry in Dengzhou, and a large number of employees of the Yang family were in Dengzhou.
And Zu Dashou, who joined the war on the southern front, went straight to Luoyang, he was also a cavalryman, and it didn't take long to set off from Chenzhou to Luoyang, but he was afraid that he would have to really fight, because Li Ruoqi, the governor of Yunyang, who set off from Xiangyang to reinforce Hongguang, was in Ruzhou at this time. This army has a certain combat effectiveness, and the place in Yunyang is full of mountain people, and the governor of Yunyang was originally set up to suppress this area, and most of the people recruited by Li Ruoqi are outlaws.
And Sun Yuanhua's troops were divided into two routes, and he led two armies to the north along the canal, aiming at Yanzhou Mansion, especially Yan Shenggong.
The old friend of King Zhennan also rebelled.
Although it was a last resort, Yan Shenggong did pay money and food to fund Hongguang, and even received the title of Taifu from Hongguang, which can be regarded as a major minister against the party, but it is rumored through the grapevine that Yan Shenggong also sent people to the capital to ask the emperor to ask the king of Zhennan for his guilt.
This is also quite normal.
After all, it was Yan Shenggong.
The other army went straight to Yizhou, with the goal of continuing north to Qingzhou, and Sun Yuanhua's goal was to sweep the whole of Shandong and join forces with Hong Chengchou and others.
Even Yang Sichang made a move.
Two of his infantry corps marched north along the Han River......
The slogan shouted was to attack Luoyang and rebel for His Majesty the Emperor, but he also knew that he would definitely not be able to catch up.
He was just there to protect the Hindu.
Li Ruoqi, the governor of Yunyang, has already raised troops to the north, and he must have suffered a fiasco in Henan. Yang Sichang is the military affairs of Huguang Jiangxi, this is his scope of responsibility, he didn't think about getting a piece of the pie in this looting, as long as he handed over the complete jurisdiction to Yang Xin, then he can be said to be a great achievement.
As for Luoyang......
"I'm not leaving, what are you going to do, I'm not going to Xi'an!"
Emperor Hongguang screamed.
And at this moment, his huge body weighing three hundred pounds was being pressed into a sixteen-lift shoulder, and those sedan chairmen with big shoulders and round waists were carried with difficulty in his fierce struggle, staggering out of the palace or the main gate of the original Fuwang Mansion, that is, the Zhenghua Gate.
You really have to squeeze it.
Even the sedan chair of his oversized size is specially made.
And a few ministers beside him, mainly Guo Zengguang, Qiu Zhichong, and a group of people who came from Shaanxi and Shanxi during this time, the new monarch ascended the throne, and those loyal people who were full of hatred for the traitorous ministers of the faint monarch naturally came to serve the new monarch. In short, at this moment, the ministers of Hongguang were all crowded on both sides of the shoulder, and one by one they stretched out their hands to hold His Majesty the Emperor to prevent him from falling and escaping.
Although they are actually running away.
You can't run away!
Now that the whole situation has completely collapsed, seeing that Luoyang is not safe, Zu Dashou's department has already fought with Li Ruoqi in Ruzhou, and the latter actually wants to run away, but Zu Dashou came too quickly. Li Ruoqi was originally going to Luoyang with an army of 20,000, but as soon as he arrived in Ruzhou, he suddenly learned that the situation had collapsed, and then he learned that Kaifeng had been captured when he was still hesitating, so he naturally had to run away in this case. But as soon as he came out of Ruzhou, he encountered the ancestral longevity department, and Li Ruoqi, who lacked an intuitive feeling of the combat effectiveness of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, still wanted to fight, and then the two sides fought in the field, and Li Ruoqi was defeated.
But the mountain people under him did not collapse at the touch of a button, and even caused some casualties to Zu Dashou.
In the end, the people in the Yunyang area were fierce, mainly because of the local isolation and lack of understanding of the outside world, and in the end, they used a battle that could barely be called a battle, and under the impact of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, they were able to retreat to Ruzhou as a whole.
But if you go out of the city and fight again, you will definitely not dare.
Zu Dashou didn't dare to bypass them and go to Luoyang......
It's a mountainous area.
In the end, the unlucky Li Ruoqi became the savior of the princes of Hongguang Dynasty, he shed tears of remorse in Ruzhou, and was entangled with Zu Dashou, and relying on his protection, the princes in Luoyang City have begun to run away to Xi'an. After all, Hongguang's banner can't fall, he is still the hope of the righteous forces in the world, it's no big deal to lose Luoyang, this place is not easy to defend, and it is really safe to continue to go west to Xi'an.
Shan will stop Yang Xin's army.
There are Shaanxi, Shanxi, and even Sichuan behind them, Zhu Xieyuan has not made a clear statement so far, he still has hope of winning over, not to mention that it is not so simple for Yang Xin to swallow the three provinces.
"I'm not leaving, you put me down, you forced me, you dogs, you hurt me, let me go, I want to see Your Majesty, I want to ask Your Majesty for guilt."
Hiromitsu screamed.
"Your Majesty, you are Your Majesty, don't make trouble!"
Guo Zengguang said.
"You dog thief, it's all you!"
Hongguang scolded.
While speaking, he struggled to get up, trying to beat Guo Ge Lao, but even if he didn't move the three hundred catties, it was actually very reluctant to press on this shoulder, after all, this thing was a wooden shelf, he was already a little shaky after struggling for a while, and at this moment he made such a big move, this shoulder finally exceeded the limit, with a sound of wood breaking, the entire shoulder disintegrated at once, and His Majesty the Emperor, who was still beating Guo Ge Lao, screamed and fell to the ground.
But he is not the most unlucky, the most unlucky is Guo Gelao, who happened to be pressed below him.
More than 300 pounds!
And you have to add some wood.
Guo Ge Lao, who was already thin, was instantly pressed and wailed, and then fainted under His Majesty's buttocks.
Hongguang was unscathed, not to mention that his fat body fell from a height of less than two meters, even if it was high, there was enough buffer, and in the chaos around him, he was still looking for Guo Ge Lao blankly, and finally found his cabinet chief assistant from under his buttocks.
"Quick, change the carriage for Your Majesty!"
Qiu Ge, who was newly promoted next to him, shouted.
His Majesty the Emperor instantly sobered up, struggling to get up and escape, but unfortunately it was not easy for him to get up without help at this weight, and the people around him also discovered his intentions, and unceremoniously hugged him and held him down, poor His Majesty the Emperor Hongguang could only sit on his cabinet head in the end, sighed helplessly, wiped his tears and accepted the ruthless fate......
