Text Chapter 956 Capture the door
With a loud bang, the Houzai Gate was completely blown up into the sky, and the power of the new gunpowder was huge, and even the palace wall was blown open a gap of more than ten meters in addition to the city gate. Zhao Guodong was happy when he saw the city gate, the most important thing for this kind of rebellion is time, the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for his side, if the forces loyal to the emperor in the city react, it will be a bad thing. Now Zhao Guodong only has 2,000 bewildered soldiers of the New Army, but there are nearly 100,000 soldiers outside the city, and if the emperor escapes, it will be over.
Zhao Guodong saw that the most difficult Houzai Gate had been captured, and the next step was to enter the palace to arrest the emperor, and he was overjoyed to see that it was going well, Zhao Guodong shouted loudly: "Brothers, now our Emperor Majesty is in the palace by these god-killing Jinyi guards, let's rush in to rescue His Majesty the Emperor, those Jinyi guards are traitors to the empire, don't believe their words, kill them all if you don't leave them all!" ”
Thanks to the constant smear of the intellectuals of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, Jinyiwei's original reputation was not good, and now they dare to hold the emperor hostage, these soldiers of the New Army who were carried away by blood shouted loudly one by one, killing Jinyiwei to save the emperor!
Zhao Guodong pulled Zhang Bao beside him and said in a low voice: "Zhang Bao, if you take a thousand people to Daming Gate, you must block the rescue soldiers outside, and you must not let them in!" And you must not let the emperor go, if the emperor runs away and you and I are not good, I will take the remaining 1,000 people to search in the palace! Zhao Guodong was still not at ease after speaking, and pulled Zhang Bao and said: "Remember, the emperor's life must be guaranteed, only when the emperor is alive can the things that King Qin did in Beijing have a proper name, you know?" ”
Zhang Bao also knew that the matter was important, nodded and led people to Daming Gate to seize control of the palace gate. Zhao Guodong rushed to the Huangji Palace, which was the original Qingning Palace of the Shenyang Imperial Palace, with the remaining 1,000 people.
Qingning Palace is one of the main buildings of the Shenyang Imperial Palace, and also one of the dormitories of Huang Taiji, which is only more than 200 meters away from the Houzai Gate, and there are several warehouses and courtyards in between.
Zhao Guodong is the governor of Northeast China, and he is naturally familiar with the geographical environment of the Shenyang Forbidden City, so he took the soldiers to come directly to the Qingning Palace without entanglement with those brocade guards.
The Ching Ninh Palace was built on a high platform with a total of five houses in front and back. When Zhao Guodong arrived, the courtyard of Qingning Palace was in chaos, some brocade guards gathered at the palace gate to resist with muskets they carried with them, and some eunuchs and palace maids who had no force were hiding in the corners and shivering.
Zhao Guodong came to the palace gate and saw this and scolded: "Your mother, Lao Tzu doesn't bring troops, have you all forgotten how to fight?" ”
At this time, a platoon commander ran over and said, "My lord, these brocade guards rely on the palace gate to resist, and the brothers can't attack it!" ”
Zhao Guodong pointed to the courtyard wall and scolded: "How many Jinyi guards are there?" How many of you are there? They guard the palace gate, won't you climb over the wall? "This is not a palace wall five or six meters high, the courtyard wall here is only three meters high, and you can climb it by erecting a human ladder. The platoon commander suddenly realized when he heard Zhao Guodong say this, and hurriedly found someone to take a ladder to climb the courtyard wall, and then opened fire on those brocade guards from behind.
The brocade guards who were flanked by the two sides immediately couldn't hold on, and they died under the muskets one after another. After half an hour of fierce fighting, the brocade clothes in the Qingning Palace
was wiped out, and Zhao Guodong finally rushed into Qingning Palace with a group of wolf-like soldiers.
At this time, there was no one in Qingning Palace, it was very quiet, Zhao Guodong was afraid that the emperor would run away and quickly ordered someone to search Qingning Palace. After more than ten minutes of searching, except for some inconsequential eunuchs and palace maids, there were no important personnel, and the most important emperor himself was missing.
Zhao Guodong was shocked when he saw that he didn't catch the emperor, this is not good, what if the emperor escapes? But Zhao Guodong thought that it was impossible for the emperor to run, his side was fast enough, and Zhang Bao was sent to watch at the front door, and the emperor must have hid in that hidden corner of the palace. Thinking of this, Zhao Guodong ordered his soldiers to start a large-scale search in the Shenyang Forbidden City in a squad unit.
When Zhao Guodong led people to look for Zhu Hongsan in the palace, Zhu Hongsan himself came to the south gate of Shenyang with fifty brocade guards.
At this time, there was a mess in the palace, and the inspection department in the city and the yamen everywhere knew that the big thing was not good, so they put down their things and rushed to the palace. On the contrary, there was no patrol of the inspection department on the south side of the city, and Zhu Hongsan and his party came to the south city gate without danger.
Tonight is the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, and the ambassador guarding the city gate has also received a strict order from the prefect's yamen to ensure security in the city. Such a big thing happened in the direction of the palace just now, and the fool knew that something big was going on in the city, so the ambassador guarding the gate hurriedly asked his soldiers to guard the city gate and not let people out of the city.
Zhu Hongsan's more than 50 people were running wildly on the deserted street, and the ambassador had already seen them, and when Zhu Hongsan and the others came to the city gate, the ambassador shouted: "Wait a minute, what are you doing?" Don't stop yet, you're about to fire arrows when you get close to the city gate! ”
At this time, Zhu Hongsan and the others were still more than fifty meters away from the city gate, and Zhu Hongsan asked Ding Wei to come forward to greet him. Ding Wei is the head of the Jinyi Guard, who has always been arrogant, and came to the city gate and shouted: "The ambassador guarding the gate, we are the Jinyi Guard in the palace, and we go out of the city to do business at the emperor's secret order, and we are not allowed to go out if the city gate is not opened!" ”
The south gate of Shenyang is seven or eight meters high, and now the sky is dark, although the lights on the city wall are bright, but the situation under the city wall cannot be seen clearly. The ambassador guarding the gate thought for a moment and walked down the wall along the horse path with more than fifty men. He saw that although these people were tall and big, they didn't have long blades, so he didn't pay attention to them.
The ambassador came to Ding Wei five meters away, saw Ding Wei's appearance clearly, and saw that this person's appearance was a little arrogant of Jinyiwei, but he didn't wear Jinyiwei's official uniform, there was no customs clearance in Shenyang Mansion, and now that such a big thing is happening in the city, the ambassador said that he would not dare to let these people out of the city.
"This brother, you said that you are Jinyiwei, but do you have the customs clearance of Shenyang Mansion? Or the words of the governor's yamen! ”
Ding Wei heard him say this and took out his waist card from his arms, the ambassador saw that it was a bronze waist card, and knew that the official position of the brocade guard in front of him was not small, and he was even more shocked when he took it.
Ding Wei's waist card is engraved on the front with "Thousand Households of the Pro-Army Governor's Mansion", and the back is engraved with "Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Pro-Army Thousand Households", Jinyiwei's official position is divided into virtual and real positions, and the false position is to give some meritorious heroes after the idle position, that is, only receive a salary without it
Officers of body affairs. There is also the actual position of Ding Wei, Jinyi Wei is divided into the north and south town Fu Division, the South Town Fu Division is mainly responsible for the inner six and the edict, the North Town Fu Division is responsible for the outer eight and the emperor's guard work, Ding Wei as a pro-army thousand households are second only to the north and south town Fu Division commander Tongzhi in the Jinyi Guard.
Ding Wei's waist card is prominent, but the ambassador doesn't recognize it, but the ambassador doesn't dare to doubt Ding Wei's identity. After respectfully returning the waist card to Ding Wei, the ambassador said with a smile: "The villain knows that the adult is a high-ranking official of Jinyiwei, but the adult has not cleared the customs, and the villain really does not dare to enlarge the person to go out of the city, please forgive the adult!" ”
Ding Wei saw that his waist card was not good, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Lao Tzu has the emperor's secret decree, do you dare not let it go?" ”
In the TV series, the emperor's holy decree is greater than the sky, as long as the holy decree is issued, all officials kneel and obey, but in fact, the real situation is not like this at all. Ancient China is a society that stresses the legal system, the emperor's decree is very important, but the emperor's decree is different, if the emperor's decree is of course easy to use in the palace, but out of the palace without the addition of the cabinet, the emperor's decree is not much different from wiping the fart.
If it is a normal period, there is a senior official of the Jinyi Guard who wants to go out of the city to do errands, and the gatekeeper ambassador will not deliberately embarrass the Jinyi Guard, after all, everyone knows what virtue these Jinyi guards are, and there is no need to provoke them. But now that there is such a big event in the city, these brocade guards are about to leave the city without any paperwork, and the gatekeeper feels that it is better not to open the door after weighing the pros and cons.
"My lord, I'm sorry! The villain who didn't have the prefect's yamen and the governor's yamen really didn't dare to open the door, and the adults also heard the movement of the palace just now, please don't embarrass the villain! ”
Ding Wei saw that the ambassador didn't open the door, and there was no way, at this time, Zhu Hongsan in the back came over, he saw that Ding Wei had negotiated for a long time and the city gate was not opened, and he was very anxious, now the time is pressing, who knows how many people in the city followed Zhao Guodong to rebel, and he had to be sure of his life when he left the city earlier.
Zhu Hongsan came to Ding Wei's side and asked in a low voice about the situation, then came to the ambassador with a smile and said, "This big brother, we really have something to do to go out of the city, can we make it convenient?" ”
The ambassador saw that there was a fat old man in front of him, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and quickly bowed down and explained: "This old man is really sorry, where the duty lies, the villain can't open the door without customs clearance!" ”
Zhu Hongsan smiled and nodded: "Okay, you are really loyal, when the old man sees Zhao Guodong, he will definitely say a few kind words for you!" ”
Zhu Hong walked to the ambassador's side as he spoke, and suddenly pulled out a dagger from his arms and plunged it into the ambassador's chest. The ambassador didn't expect this old guy to make a move without warning, and he didn't guard against dying in the hands of Zhu Hongsan for a while.
The Jinyi guards behind Zhu Hongsan were all elite soldiers who had been in battle for a long time, and when they saw the emperor move, they took out their blades and killed all the more than 50 people guarding the door. There are only more than 50 people here at the gate of the city, and the city is gray, so there is no situation under the city wall.
Zhu Hongsan looked at the city and there was no response, so he asked Ding Wei and them to quickly open the city gate, and then quietly left Shenyang City with people, and rushed to the Praetorian Guard camp on the bank of the Liao River.
