Chapter 45: The Death of the Nation
Jiankang Xixiao, Huangzhuang line is only 800 steps.
Chong'an Wang Chai and Rui are also wearing golden helmets and golden armor, and he is riding on a war horse.
Chai and Rui said loudly to the surrounding clan relatives and ministers such as Shunguo Gong: "Emperor Suzong faints and is selfish. This world is the world of the descendants of the Chai family, not the world of him Chai Xinyuan alone. Who in the world doesn't know that the world of this Great Xia is determined by Taizu and Taizong's hundred battles! Forty years ago, Shenzong had no children, Shenzong was loyal and filial, had a loving clan, had spoken with the kings, changed the law and tried to be strong, and in the future, he should fight in all directions, and then seal the world, not to raise pigs, and to raise the royal bloodline. However, he chose a violent man as the king, causing my Great Xia to lose half of the northern country. Today, the tyrant's brother occupies the dove's nest, is selfish, appoints Jia Ru traitor as the prime minister, and cholera is the outline. In order to occupy power for a long time, he killed his own smart son and supported the mentally handicapped as the crown prince. For his own selfishness, he disregarded the 600 years of Great Xia. A certain did not want to see the Huangqian Chai clan and was destroyed by a poisonous man. β
"The kings of the clan are all of the blood of their ancestors, and they can stab their own flesh and blood to death, and their hearts are so ruthless that they have never seen it in ancient times! If you can kill your own son today, won't we die without a place to bury us in the future? β
Yasheng said: "The monarch and the minister are like siblings, and the minister regards the king as the heart." The monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman. The monarch and the minister are like the mustard, and the minister regards the king as an enemy. β
How can we be wantonly killed by a thousand ancient poisonous men, and there is no way to fight alone in the machine, Kuang Fu Sheji, set things right, please help the descendants of the Chai family to help the orphans!
"All poisonous husbands, get rid of traitors!"
"All poisonous husbands, get rid of traitors!"
The various clans roared in response to Guo Shirong, the Duke of Shunguo, and Fan Sui, the commander of the Yangtze River Water Division.
"Kill!!"
Following the instructions of Chong'an Wang Chai and Rui Jianfeng, Fan Sui commanded an army several times larger than the local area, besieging and killing Xiang Sheng.
Now that there is great righteousness, all clans are unwilling to accept their current status, and they all participate in the rebellion.
Since you have already boarded this boat, if you don't fight, you will wait for death, and you can still win glory and wealth for your children and grandchildren.
Therefore, all the people who participated in the turmoil used all their strength to rush in the direction of the holy car.
Under the command of battlefield veterans such as Fan Sui, the army broke through the three temporary defense lines of the Imperial Forest Army at a very fast speed, approaching the Huangzhuang on the top of the mountain.
Along the way, rivers of blood flowed------
In front of the last line of defense, Huangzhuang hid on the top of the building, the founding prince Cao Lei had a solemn face, looked at Guo Shirong, the prince of Shunguo who was a stone's throw away, and shouted loudly: "Zichang, why is it here?" β
Guo Shirong faced the previous big brother, his face was excited, and said: "Big brother, I am different from you, your family is rich and noble with the life of your ancestors, and me!" This world was originally given to the Chai family by the ancestors of my Guo family, although the kings of the Chai family in the past dynasties have listed my Guo family as a noble and wealthy family, and you and others, but each dynasty is not guarding against my Guo family? Your family has one person entering the court every few generations, and my Guo family has always been a group of pigs raised by the Chai family. β
"For hundreds of years, my Guo family has been cautious, for fear that the Chai family will find a way to blame our clan, I shouldn't be, I'm a pig. He took over his in-laws with King Chong'an, and now King Chong'an is fighting for power with His Majesty, if His Majesty wins, my Guo family will definitely suffer a catastrophe. β
"Don't you know the character of today's son? Suspicion is heavy. Can I, Guo, pass this hurdle? King Chong'an promised me that if his son ascended to the throne, he would divide my Guo clan from overseas and stay away from this vortex. I had no choice but to do it! β
Cao Lei's face was awe-inspiring, and he said sharply: "At this time, you are still obsessed, just relying on Fan Sui's little people, you want to change the day?" And what if you and King Chong'an are sons and daughters! When I founded the country, the twelve nobles had a predestination, as long as they did not commit serious crimes, the nobles must support each other, or you and I could only enjoy the glory of 600 years. But what you did today, no one can save you, are you blind or lost. β
"Big brother!!"
Guo Shirong's eyes were torn apart, and he roared angrily: "Dang."

Today's official family, unlike the previous Chai Emperor, I don't want the men of the Shunguo Mansion to die, and the female dependents are sold into the Jiaofang Division! Big brother, why do you have to work for that poisonous man? If you don't want to follow the dragon, just get out of the way. King Chong'an said, only punish Chai Xinyuan and the traitor Jia Ru, and never touch the loyal ministers and good generals such as Song Taishi and the Wuxun mansions, and give the brothers a way to live, big brother!! β
When Cao Lei, the founding prince of the People's Republic of China, saw it, his heart was like a knife, and he sighed with admiration------
"In this case, you can't listen to persuasion, my Cao family has been loyal and martyred for generations, and I will never be a rebellious minister in vain. If you want to hurt Your Majesty, then pass him over from my corpse! β
Outside Jiankang City, the earth had stopped shaking, and all the outlines that could be seen in the darkness seemed to give people a sense of disarray. Still burning on the surface of the river was a large ship, no one on it, the whole frame burned and fell apart, and the burning wreckage spread around the flames, and then gradually disappeared and submerged on the water.
The surrounding pleasure boats, each centered on this flame, dispersed in all directions in the dark, and the lights on the boat were spotted.
On both sides of the Qinhuai River, the houses are like forests, the eaves are overlapped, and in the night, the lights between the city houses gather into an extended flow of fire, crisscrossing the scene of Jiankang City in this early spring night.
The rain is falling.
The clouds were tinged with a hint of blue, and the heavy rain rolled up the yellow mud in the courtyard into streams of turbidity. A craftsman dressed in a cloak pushed a cart of six or seven feet long logs soaked in one or two feet of coarse butter and with iron hoops, and several craftsmen's carts carrying wooden frames.
A convoy of 100 guards from the Imperial Forest Army came to the river, pushed the cart with the goods directly onto the five medium-sized cargo ships, the boats started, sailed into the Qinhuai River, and the boats followed the river to the private small pier at the back gate of Xiangyang Wangfu Garden in Wuyi Lane.
Artisans push carts into the back garden. In the middle of the garden, many sheds have been erected on the mountain, and a small figure ran through a short rain curtain with a hat, and when it came to the shed without rain, the small figure looked towards the shed. The eleven or twelve-year-old girl had a wound on her head and was wrapped in bandages.
Looking at the wooden boxes in the shed, they are a little messy, but the waterproof condition seems to be quite good. There were two men inside, one big and one small, and the man who was standing saw him and beckoned to her.
"Gan Tang, what are you doing, sneaky."
Kicking on the ground, Gan Tang, who was checking the wooden box, stood up and casually checked the bandage on her head: "Why did you break your head?" Clicked with your hand? Does it still hurt? β
"It's a little painful, I heard shouting and killing in the north of the city at night, I went out with my mother to have a look, and saw that there seemed to be troops fighting each other, and on the way back to the house, I encountered a rebel soldier killing people, so I rescued people casually, who knew that there was a hopeless disaster, but it was just a little broken, and there was no big problem."
Yin Muxi asked, "What are you doing?" Do you want me to help? β
"This one is dangerous, you can't touch it, just sit by and watch."
Although it rained, because the shed was built sturdily, there was no rain leakage inside, and because it was on top of the dirt mountain, the ground was also dry, and more than a dozen large wooden boxes were placed on the shelves of the benches. Gan Tang opened a wooden box, and the wooden box was basically mixed powder.
Gantang took out some and arranged them in a line on the ground.
"Beware, stay away!"
After he finished speaking to Yin Muxi, he picked up the fire fold and touched it up, and with a bang, the flames rose with a bang, and then turned into smoke and dispersed, Yin Muxi was suddenly startled, and his body almost fell down beside him. But his eyes blinked several times, and then widened wide, trying to see what was in front of him.
Zheng Mengyun, who came in from the outside, was also taken aback, in addition to Pei Sui and Prince Qi of the beggar gang, Qi Qi curiously probed her brain and hid behind Pei Sui, wanted to come out to see what was going on, and looked scared, she tried her best to adjust her position behind Pei Sui, and formed a line with Pei Sui, the ultimate goal was not to let Gan Tang see herself.
Yu Mao, an old craftsman, said to Gan Tang: "The wooden artillery mount on this dirt mountain will be effective."

Fruit. Lord Wang, let's see if you should put up the cannon first. β
On the Royal Street.
After more than 600 years of inheritance, the first city in the south of the Yangtze River was the out-and-out economic center of the Xia Dynasty, gathering merchants from all over the world and reaching all directions in the world.
In the more than ten years that Southern Xia established the capital here, the imperial examination once every three years gathered the world's talents, and also gathered a group of officials with the most power in the whole world, surrounded by the imperial throne, dominating the operation of the world.
At this moment, in the center of the capital, more than 100 people went straight to the Xuande Gate, passed through the wide royal street, and reached the city.
The light rain was dripping, the gate of Xuande Gate was closed, and there were people patrolling the city.
Although it can't be seen from the outside, Xuande Gate is actually a fortress with heavy troops. There are more than 1,000 troops stationed in the inner city every day, which can be touched at any time to suppress all changes inside and outside the imperial city.
But the heavily defended Xuande Gate was easily opened in front of Zhao Chong.
A fierce battle had just passed on the castle tower, and blood was flowing down the steps. A draped general of the Imperial Forest Army strode out.
"The former commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Chaida, see Zhao Xiang."
Zhao Chong nodded: "General Chai, thanks to you." β
Chai Dadao: "Zhao Xiang can dare to take risks for my Chai family, I am a descendant of the Chai family, what else can not be abandoned, Zhao Xiang, without further ado, I am going to attack the palace now, the Imperial Forest Army and the Ouchi guards guarding the palace are scattered all around the palace, and they can't be gathered." β
"Everything is a lot of General Chai, and the rise and fall of Huangxia is here."
Chai Da nodded, turned around and instructed his subordinates, "We are here to protect the Chai family, don't disturb the Queen Mother, the rest of the people, if there is resistance, kill them." β
Today's Queen Mother is the first family in Jiangnan, the Xie family, and the descendants are powerful, and those who participated in the coup d'Γ©tat still have to rely on her to obtain a legal name.
Zhao Chong personally led people to attack the palace city, and there was an inner holder in front to guide them. The encounters along the way were brief. Zhao Chong took advantage of the number of people and solved the patrol team he encountered in the shortest time.
However, after passing through the Qinzheng Palace, the pace of progress became slow, and the Imperial Forest Army and Ouchi guards guarding the palace finally reacted and began to put up organized resistance.
Chai and Rui stood on the tower of Xuande Gate, looking at the east of the palace, the crowds of torches moved more and more slowly, and their mouths became more and more dry.
This is a man in a jade face and brocade robe, accompanied by several guards, who ascended the castle tower.
"Father!" Chai Shixiang bowed.
"Xie Yan bowed his head, and was willing to enter the palace to lobby his sister and make me the new king."
"Good!"
"However, Xie Yan has prerequisites, we must fully grasp the initiative, and only after the truth is revealed, Xie Yan can go out of the mountain to lobby, and now Zheng Ming and the head of the Zheng family are accompanying him in the Xie family."
"Huh! Old fox! β
Chai and Rui's father and son both looked at the palace with nervous expressions: "Why are Zhao Chong and Chai Da so ink, they haven't been beaten down yet." β
The rebellion in the palace came and went. Many of the squad and guards were fighting the invading rebels. This made it more difficult for Zhao Chong and them.
Midnight passed, and it gradually quieted down. The resistance of the rear army and Ouchi's guards was suppressed little by little, but the queen was never seen.
Fortunately, the garrisons outside the city were attacking each other, and they were still holding each other.
It's getting brighter.
The upheaval in the palace could not be hidden. Zhao Chong and Chai Da both looked at Chai and Rui, what should they do next? Chai Yourui frowned, and said ruthlessly: "Help Xinjun ascend the throne first." β
"Let the officials in the city come to pay their respects. Determine the status of the monarch and the minister. Gather the military and civilians in the capital. It was announced that Emperor Suzong had died, and Jia Ru and Jia Guifei rebelled. The one who kills him is allowed to be crowned king. Those who are rebellious are willing to be able to do it anyway and seal it at the third level. It was announced that Song Ci had merit in eliminating evil and Sheji, and was crowned king. β
