Chapter 402: Death Battle

"Kill!"

Soon after, under Zhang Guang's expressionless gaze, the assembled soldiers of the Beijing Army, under the leadership of the bearded general, waved the weapons in their hands and rushed to the backyard guarded by the soldiers of the New Army with a shout.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Beijing army located in the alley behind the Li Mansion also launched an attack and rushed in through the back door.

A bloody battle immediately began, because the new army soldiers' arrows had been shot, so the new army soldiers had to start a tragic white-knuckle battle with the attacking Beijing army, the scene of the killing shook the sky, blood flowed like a river, many soldiers screamed and fell in a pool of blood.

"Wu Weihou, it seems that this Li Hongyu is quite good at commanding the army!"

A nobleman standing beside Zhang Guang couldn't help but sigh after listening to the sound of the tragic battle coming from the direction of the backyard, although he didn't want to admit it, the battle in the Li Mansion could be called the most tragic since the Yongle Emperor moved the capital to Beijing.

"I heard that there are still nearly a thousand people left in the new army camp outside the city, and they are also a scourge, so it is better to take the opportunity to send someone to bulldoze them too, so as not to leave future troubles!"

Another nobleman said with a gloomy face when he heard this, since he witnessed the strong combat effectiveness of the new army, he was also quite afraid of the people in the new army camp.

"Who do you think you sent to destroy them?" Zhang Guang groaned for a moment when he heard this, and asked quietly in the direction of the backyard of the Li Mansion.

The nobleman who proposed to eliminate the remnants of the large battalion outside the city of the new army was suddenly dumbfounded, compared with the field battle, the battle situation in the Li Mansion was actually more favorable to the soldiers of the Beijing army, after all, after the defeat of the soldiers of the Beijing army, the soldiers of the new army would not chase and kill because they had to protect the family members of the Li Mansion.

But field combat is different, once the soldiers of the Beijing army are defeated, then the new army will definitely chase and kill with all their might, and it will inevitably lead to a big defeat, they have been immersed in the battlefield for twenty or thirty years, and naturally know that when the war is not won by a large number of people, the troops are not expensive when they fight.

Besides, the New Army had been regarded as the Emperor's Praetorian Guard since its inception, and attacking the New Army's camp without King Fu's permission would be self-destructive.

Seeing that the noble was silent, and the other nobles were also silent, Zhang Guang secretly sneered, it seems that these people still have self-knowledge, knowing that the new army is difficult to deal with, and if they rashly attack the new army camp outside the city, they will end up in a big defeat, you must know that a thousand soldiers who are not afraid of death will defeat 10,000 fearful enemy troops on the battlefield.

At this moment, Zhang Guang couldn't help but be glad that Emperor Wanli had transferred the new army to Shanhaiguan, otherwise once the new army was mixed in, I am afraid that the Beijing army and the pro-army would not be opponents.

As the battle progressed, the soldiers of the Beijing army advanced little by little in the backyard, which seemed very difficult, and the wounded soldiers continued to retreat, wailing and receiving treatment from the doctor.

The bearded general personally led his own soldiers to press the formation in the front yard of the Li Mansion, and all those who retreated were executed on the spot, driving the soldiers of the Beijing army to charge forward.

Looking at the wounded soldiers who were screaming and groaning and being carried down, the soldiers of the Beijing army who gathered in the front yard and waited for the attack in turn showed panicked expressions.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

When the fierce battle was in full swing, there was a sudden commotion on the street in the distance, and I saw a dozen or so cavalrymen dressed in pro-army uniforms rushing towards a carriage, and the onlookers on the road dodged to both sides of the shouting of the leading cavalry, pointing to the carriage and whispering, secretly guessing who was in the carriage.

"Stop, the bandits ahead, no traffic!"

When it came to the cordon set up by the soldiers of the Beijing army under Zhang Guang, a hundred households blocked the road of the leading cavalry.

"We are from Princess Shouning's Mansion, and we have something important to see Wuwei Hou!"

The leading cavalry took out a waist tag from his waist and shook it at the hundred households, and announced himself in a loud voice.

"Princess Shouning's Mansion!" The Baihu was stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward to take a look, sure enough, it was the waist card of Princess Shouning's Mansion, and he hesitated for a moment and turned sideways to let him go, now even Wuweihou can't afford to offend Princess Shouning's Mansion, where does he dare to stop it.

Zhang Guang was expressionless and concentrating on the battle, and suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves on the road, and when he turned his head, he saw more than a dozen cavalry escorting a carriage over, and his brows suddenly frowned slightly, he had already issued an order to prohibit anyone, including high-ranking officials of the imperial court, from approaching.

But then Zhang Guang realized the identity of the person who came, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help revealing a wry smile, now I'm afraid that only the people in Princess Shouning's Mansion dare to take care of this gossip.

Therefore, Zhang Guang cheered up and hurried to meet him, in the final analysis, he made a mistake first, if he took the Li Mansion last night, even if Princess Shouning came, he would have nothing to say.

"Wuwei Hou, how is Li Hanlin's family?"

After the carriage stopped, Ran Xingrang jumped out of the carriage in a hurry, and when he saw Zhang Guanghou, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked urgently, if something happened to Qin Yue, then it would be terrible, he knew very well that Li Hongyu was a person who valued love and righteousness, and he attached great importance to his family, and the consequences were unpredictable under impulse.

The reason why Ran Xingrang only rushed over now was because he lived in the princess's mansion in the imperial city last night, not only him, but because he was in the critical period of the crown prince and King Fu recently, even his family was taken to the princess's mansion, and Naren Tuoya and Rou'er were only able to enter the imperial city after the gate of the imperial city was opened today.

Fortunately, Ran Xingrang did not enter the palace today, otherwise Naren Tuoya and Rou'er would only go to beat the Dengwen drum, but how could the Dengwen drum be so easy to beat, Zhao Xin was able to beat the Dengwen drum with the support of the test in the capital.

Moreover, now is the period of the great funeral of Emperor Wanli, even if the Dengwen drum is sounded, there is no way to deal with the case, should the prince or King Fu decide the case?

Ran Xingrang was taken aback when he learned that Qin Yue had taken in the British generals who were hunted down and killed by Zhang Guang's men, but he knew that there was a festival between the Li Mansion and the Wuwei Hou Mansion, and once it intensified, things would become very troublesome.

In Ran Xingrang's view, although King Fu now has to rely on Zhang Guang to ascend to the throne, what is needed to govern the country is a shrewd and capable loyal civil official like Li Hongyu, so he doesn't want to see the two clash no matter what.

"Back to the horse, Li Hanlin's family and the rebels were surrounded in the backyard, and now the official army is encircling and suppressing them." Zhang Guangrang bowed to Ran Xingrang and replied seriously.

"Encirclement?" Ran Xingrang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, then frowned, and said to Zhang Guang, "Master Hou, the matter has not been clarified yet, and it is a bit inappropriate to use the word 'encirclement and suppression'. ”

"Ben Hou was in a hurry for a while, and he lost his words." Zhang Guang knew that Ran Xingrang had a close relationship with Li Hongyu, so he replied quietly, anyway, he had already made up his mind to charge the national-faced generals and others who launched the military operation as rebels.

"Wu Weihou, let them stop fighting, there is something to do!" Ran Xingrang was in the mood to talk to Zhang Guang about these verbal intrigues, and said to Zhang Guang urgently, the most important thing at present is a truce.

"Mingjin!"

Zhang Guang frowned slightly when he heard this, sighed secretly in his heart, and then gave an order to the soldiers on the side with a gloomy face, since Ran Xingrang had already said this, what could he say? After all, Ran Xingrang and King Fu are a family, and he is not easy to offend.

The crisp sound of the gong sounded, and the soldiers of the Jing Army, who were fighting with the soldiers of the New Army in the backyard, heard it and retreated like a tide, they had long wanted to get out of this hellish battlefield of Shura, and the ground was littered with corpses and wounded soldiers.

Due to the retreat of the Beijing army, those soldiers of the Beijing army who were wounded and fell to the ground crawled back one after another, and some soldiers of the new army who had killed red eyes were about to come forward to kill them with their weapons, but they were stopped by the leading military attaché, and this kind of killing of wounded soldiers who had lost their combat effectiveness was really shameful.

After a series of fierce battles from last night to now, there are only fifty or sixty of the two hundred new army soldiers left, each of whom is more or less wounded, and they gather in front of the living room to protect Qin Yue with each other's eyes, and they all look tired and have reached the limit of their physical strength.

It is a miracle that the soldiers of the new army have been able to fight so far, and the reason why they can stand here is completely supported by one breath, as long as this breath protrudes, one by one will be tired and paralyzed on the ground.

In the living room, the general with a national character face was anxiously walking back and forth in front of the door, he and the people who came to avoid the pursuit were left in the living room by Qin Yue, after all, they were now guests of the Li Mansion when they entered the Li Mansion, and Qin Yue naturally wanted to protect their safety.

Due to the extremely tragic battle situation in the courtyard, the Guozi-faced general and others wanted to rush out to participate in the battle several times, but they were rejected by Qin Yue, so they could only wait here nervously, not knowing why those Beijing soldiers were retreating, whether they wanted to launch a sharper offensive.

Qin Yue sat there with her eyes closed, she had already thought about it, once the Li Mansion was captured, as long as those Beijing soldiers wanted to capture her, then she would commit suicide to martyr Li Hongyu.

"Miss Qin, are you okay?" It didn't take long for a concerned voice to come from outside the hospital.

"Ran's horse?" Hearing this, Qin Yue immediately opened her eyes, and a look of surprise flashed in front of her eyes, it seemed that Naren Toya and Rou'er were safe now, otherwise Ran Xingrang would not have come so quickly, it must have been the two of them who notified Ran Xingrang.

Then, Qin Yue hurriedly walked out of the room, only to see Ran Xingrang, Zhang Guang and others standing in the courtyard surrounded by soldiers of the Beijing army, looking anxiously into the living room.

Because the soldiers of the New Army could not distinguish whether Ran Xingrang and the others were friends or foes, they put on a posture of fighting to prevent them from approaching, which made Ran Xingrang have to stand in the courtyard from a distance and shout to Qin Yue, so as not to provoke those New Army soldiers.

"Stand down."

Seeing this, Qin Yue ordered the soldiers of the new army, and then walked over quickly to meet Ran Xingrang, stepped forward and said, "I don't know if the horse is coming, and I will miss the welcome." ”

"Miss Qin, did you take in the people who attacked the Marquis of Wuwei Mansion last night?" Seeing that Qin Yue was fine, Ran Xingrang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and then asked in a deep voice.

"Back to the horse, the folk girl did take in some soldiers, they said that it was the British duke's subordinates, because the British duke was chased and killed by the people of Wuwei Hou, the folk girl didn't know what happened, so naturally she couldn't rush to hand them over."

Qin Yue had already dealt with it, and answered Ran Xingrang in an orderly manner, not to mention that Wuwei Hou and even King Fu and even Zheng Guifei were not qualified to put the British Duke under house arrest, and now the only person with this qualification is the crown prince of the prison country, so there is nothing wrong with her saying the word "save".

Sure enough, Zhang Guang's brows suddenly furrowed when he heard this, I have to say that Qin Yue's words are not leaky, and if he gets into a lawsuit with the court in the future, he will not take any advantage.

"Don Ma, these people attacked Benhou's mansion, there is no doubt that they are rebels, and I hope that Miss Qin can hand over the people, and Benhou will investigate the main messenger behind the scenes."

After a deep groan, Zhang Guang bowed to Ran Xingrang, and said to Ran Xingrang with a serious expression, the top priority is to catch the generals and others with the national character face and convict them of rebellion.

"Horses, according to the laws of the imperial court, at this time, it should be handed over to the three law divisions and the five military governors for joint trial, and let Wuwei Hou take away the illegal system."

Qin Yue frowned slightly when she heard this, looked at Ran Xingrang quietly, and refused to hand over the person to Zhang Guang.

"Hmph, a female streamer dares to interfere in the affairs of the court, do you still have the court in your eyes?" Zhang Guangyan's face was gloomy when he heard this, and he glared at Qin Yue and scolded.

"Master Hou, although the people's daughter is a woman, she also knows that she is loyal to the monarch and serves the country and the laws of the country, is it wrong for the people's daughter to act according to the law?" Qin Yue was not afraid to argue with Zhang Guang, and immediately asked-for-tat after hearing this.

"Bold woman, dare to contradict Wu Weihou, come to teach Benhou a lesson to this woman who doesn't know the height of the sky." At this time, a noble standing beside the Marquis of Wuwei couldn't help but be furious, and waved his hand at the soldiers behind him, wanting to give Qin Yue a dismount.
