Chapter 137: Behind the Rebellion
The white wolf was very dissatisfied with this result, how did he know that the dart he threw would so coincidentally hit the hidden arrow of the friendly army, which is really "difficult to defend against the dark arrow".
The white wolf's "hey" immediately attracted a lot of firepower, and countless arrows flew towards his direction.
"Let's go! Walk! Over there, Siborough covered the wound of the arrow, although it was only a minor injury, but it still caused a lot of damage to his old bones, and he mounted his horse, intent on escaping.
The Templars immediately divided the corresponding numbers to the rear of the temple, shouting "For the revival of the Holy Church!" Then he pounced on the cavalry led by Lin Hanyu. The Templars were bent on escaping, and ordinary infantry could hardly catch up, so the only thing that could pose a threat to the fleeing Siborough was the 1,000 cavalry brought by Lin Hanyu. The Templars did this by abandoning the chariot to protect the commander, and they used a portion of the Templars to hold Lin Hanyu's cavalry in tow, delaying enough time for Siboro's escape.
The quality of the cavalry in the southwest of the empire was naturally not comparable to the well-known Zhongzhou Iron Cavalry, although there was Lin Hanyu, a fierce general, who led the team, but in front of those Templars who were bent on death, not seeking victory but only delaying, they were still involved.
Seeing that the main force of the Templars was about to escape, and Sboro was among them, the white wolf let out a long howl, which was a wolf howl, and the hidden arrow hidden in the woods not far away lowered its crosshair and aimed at Sborough's crossbow arrow.
This time, there was no mistake in the cooperation between the two, and the last dart of the white wolf made a sound of breaking the air, and then stabbed into Siboro's back with unmistakable accuracy.
The speed of the dart was so fast that although many Templars heard the terrifying sound of breaking through the air, they could only see a remnant, let alone block it. Sborough fell with a muffled voice and fell forward on his horse's back.
When everyone thought that the matter was over, it was another dark arrow, but this time there was no sound of breaking the air, although it was also shot quickly, but because of the special treatment on the arrow, it could be said that it came to Siboro quietly.
Sboro was hit by another arrow, and his body, which had fallen on the horse's back, no longer twitched, and even slipped off the horse's back. Eventually, a loyal Templar dismounted and carried Sboro, who had fallen to the ground, on his back and fled as he fled.
The rebels were dealt with very well, and although the Templars escaped partially, the leader Siborough was already seriously wounded, and judging from the huge damage caused by the white wolf and the arrow wolf, Siboro was already half a dead man and would no longer pose any threat to the Empire.
It can be said that this time the defense was very successful, and the rebels successfully broke through the encirclement designed by Lin Ji, and they thought that they threw Lin Ji together, but unexpectedly, they fell into a more dangerous trap. Lin Hanyu collected the team, distributed the military merits to the soldiers transferred from various cities, and repatriated them to their respective homes. Then with the white wolf, they continued to patrol in this generation, although the scope of the rebellion was not large, and there were not many soldiers and civilians involved, but it still caused a lot of impact.
Imperial capital.
Lin Haoyan saw the information copied back by the night wolf, which was an investigation of the night wolf of the Luoluzhuang rebellion, and he was not too shocked by this.
"Sure enough, they're playing tricks!" Lin Haoyan looked at the conspicuous Zhao character on the secret letter, which was similar to his guess.
The rebellion in Luoluzhuang was obviously too coincidental, so coincidental that it made people feel that it was a conspiracy that had been prepared for a long time - from the fact that the main body of the rebellion was the army, not the lower classes, it was known that someone was behind the instigation and manipulation of all this. If Lin Haoyan's guess is right, I am afraid that the army around Luoluzhuang will no longer be loyal to him, they have betrayed for a long time, but they have recently stood up and been used as a bargaining chip.
"That's a pitiful bargaining chip." Lin Haoyan sighed, he did feel that those soldiers in Luoluzhuang were a little pitiful, and their life and death were just used by those people as a disposable bargaining chip against his implementation of the new policy, or even just a way to express anger.
Lin Haoyan thought about it, it was not easy to secretly buy this entire army, even if it was the Lanhe Empire, only a few of them had such great energy to do it. And this matter is no different from Lin Haoyan's guess, and the Zhao family in the imperial capital has also made great efforts.
It's just that for the other words in the secret letter, Lin Haoyan never expected it.
Plums.
Just this one word proves too much, there are many Mei surnames in the Lanhe Empire, but I am afraid that the only one who can have such great strength is the one in the Hall of Elder Love.
Empress Dowager May.
Lin Haoyan's vigilance has never fallen, he is wary of his civil and military officials, and he is wary of those families, but he has always forgotten that even in this deep palace, there will be his own enemies.
"The whole world is the enemy." Lin Haoyan sighed, this kind of situation probably no one could have imagined at first.
The implementation of the new policy was not only opposed by the family of ministers and officials, but even many people did not appreciate it, and Lin Haoyan often reflected on whether he had really done something wrong, but he couldn't think of it.
Lin Haoyan remembered a joke that Zhao Fu said, "The way to prove a person's intelligence is that all fools will unite against him." Is it your turn to be the smart one this time?
Lin Haoyan never felt that he was smart, he was not as good as his ministers in the handling of many political affairs, and many ingenious ideas were also thought up with Shi Yiqiu and Zhao Fu. The difference between him and others is that he has traveled a lot, seen a lot of people, and killed a lot of people.
Lin Haoyan was not a traditionally born emperor, his childhood was spent in repeated and boring training and killing, and those days were not good, and he was regarded as the sharpest dagger in the Lanhe Empire. Lin Haoyan was an emotionless beast, at that time he never thought about why he wanted to kill, he couldn't even understand the meaning of pain, he was numb to everything in this world.
Until the first emperor died suddenly, he was temporarily pushed to the throne by the old people in the night wolf, and at that time he also wanted to follow the rules and be a good emperor.
But the good thing is that he met a lot of good people...... Liu Musong, Shi Yiqiu, and Zhao Fu are all very good people, he gradually understood the meaning of the emperor, he maintained not only the flowers and the moon with Shi Yiqiu, not only the Four Books and Five Classics with Liu Musong, nor just the chatting with Zhao Fu, he maintained the entire Lanhe Empire.
Lin Haoyan maintains this world, his power is no longer a poisoned dagger and a secret medicine to treat wounds, he can even change this world.
After getting used to seeing Shi Yiqiu's laughter, Lin Haoyan wanted to be a good emperor.
