Chapter 297: Broken Soldiers/Mending Blades
Shuyuan Street, Governor Yamen. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The people of the Minmutini launched the most violent impact on the gate, and countless tiles, bricks and stones flew towards the yamen from the outside, and suddenly smashed into a mess inside.
At first, Wang Qitai, Kou Shen and others were still blocking the yamen, trying to block these angry people with their subordinates, but under the impact of the overwhelming mountains and seas, the flood and tide of the governor's yamen gate were soon lost.
The people who participated in the demonstrations were obviously also given clear instructions to ignore the errand officers and soap subordinates who had escaped, but only aimed the spearhead at the Jinyi lieutenant who was heading south, chased them and beat them wildly, killing several people instantly.
Sun Yunhe was terrified at this time, how dare he be majestic again, he ran faster than anyone else, threw off a group of captains, and was the first to escape.
Seeing the leader flee, the captains scattered like lost dogs, and no longer had the prestige of the past, and some of them could not escape, and even knelt down and smashed their heads at the angry people, trying to get their forgiveness. But the angry people would not let them go, and they were surrounded by a series of violent kicks, beating them so that they could not stop howling.
Ma Jie and Dongfang Shengping chased after Sun Yunhe, this guy ran faster than anyone else, but he couldn't catch up. Sun Yunhe is naturally not a fool and a fool, seeing that the yamen is lost, he knows that even if he retreats to the back hall, he may not escape death, so he actually jumped on the roof tiles, and ran away without a figure between a few ups and downs.
The angry crowd rushed into the central hall of the yamen and surrounded Liu Dexi, Wang Qitai, Kou Shen and other officials who could not escape, but they did not act rashly.
"Eunuch, where did you lock up my master?" A middle-aged man rushed in front of Liu Dexi and shouted at him. This person's name is Zhou Wenyuan, who is the head of Zhou Shunchang's mansion and one of the leaders of the Tongshan Association.
Liu Dexi sneered, and even ignored him - when the gate was breached, he had a chance to escape, but he was the leader of Wei Zhongxian personally assigned to Jiangnan, if he took the lead in escaping, he didn't need these people to do it, but he was afraid that Gonggong Wei would be the first to not let him go, so he had to stay, after all, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, if Yang Yufan's elite soldiers could come in time, it might not be impossible to reverse the situation.
Zhou Wenyuan was furious, took a step forward, grabbed his shirt and shouted, "Say it quickly, otherwise I will beat you into pulp." β
Liu Dexi pushed his chest with great energy, and Zhou Wenyuan staggered back with a muffled snort, and blood was already overflowing from the corners of his mouth.
Liu Dexi's dark energy caused him a lot of internal injuries.
The crowd was furious and gathered around them, wanting to do something about it.
Liu Dexi snorted coldly and shouted: "Call Sun Yueling to see me!" The governor's yamen was broken by the people to his expectations, but the situation turned so far that he had to face the reality. For the first time, he felt a palpitation from the bottom of his heart, and at this moment he could only pretend to be calm and try his best to deal with it - the changes in the twenty-ninth year of Wanli had now been like a sharp knife deep into his heart, making him feel uneasy.
"Dog thief, come here!" Ma Jie pushed Zhou Wenyuan away, and slashed at Liu Dexi with a knife. If it weren't for this person, how would the Jinling Society be destroyed, how could Zhong Buli die, Ma Jie already hated Liu Dexi, and he wished to break his body into pieces.
"Stop!" A loud shout came, and Ma Jie was shocked when he heard this, although he wanted to kill Liu Dexi, he didn't dare to disobey, so he could only take back the long knife stiffly.
Surrounded everyone to get out of the way, retreated to both sides, only to see one person come out of the crowd, walked in front of Liu Dexi, and said lightly: "Father-in-law Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time." "It is Sun Yueling, the master of Fenghua Society.
Liu Dexi's eyelids shrank, stared at him and said, "Sun Yueling, do you know what you're doing?" β
Sun Yueling smiled proudly and said, "Don't work to remind your father-in-law, the contemptible heart is naturally clear." Looking around at the many officials, he was surprised, "Where is Mao Zhongcheng, why is he missing?" β
The corners of Liu Dexi's mouth showed a hint of disdain and said: "Mao Yilu is as timid as a mouse, and he has already slipped away when he saw that the situation was not good." β
Sun Yueling shook his head and smiled, and said: "Master Mao, why is this the reason, we are here to discuss with him this time, not to fight to the death, why is this so!" β
When Wang Qitai heard him say this, he hurriedly took a step forward and said with a sneer: "Master Sun, it's easy to talk and talk, since you are here to discuss, then everything is easy to talk about, please sit down!" Hurriedly brought a chair and moved it behind Sun Yueling.
Although he hated this person in his heart for being insidious and vicious, Sun Yueling didn't want to deal with him anymore at this time, so he sat down in the chair and said to Liu Dexi: "Please also ask the bus to send out Zhou Shunchang, Miao Changqi and other five people, everything can naturally be discussed." β
Liu Dexi smiled coldly and said to him: "I won't hide it from you until now, Zhou Shunchang and the others were escorted into Beijing a few days ago, and they are no longer in Suzhou City at this moment. β
As soon as these words fell, everyone was furious, and they shouted and scolded one after another, but they didn't expect that Liu Dexi would be in a bad situation now, and he would have secretly escorted the five people out of the city a long time ago.
Sun Yueling raised his hand to stop everyone from talking, stared at Liu Dexi and said, "Are you serious?" β
Liu Dexi sneered and asked, "What do you say?" β
Sun Yueling's heart shook, at this time, Liu Dexi should not dare to lie to him, but he didn't expect Liu Dexi to be so cautious, and he would escort the five of them back to Beijing a long time ago. When the five of them arrived in Beijing, they would definitely be imprisoned, and it would be difficult to survive under the destruction.
Thinking of this, Sun Yueling's heart was furious, he made such a big move this time, it was nothing more than for two purposes, one was to create momentum and force Liu Dexi and Mao Yilu to release the five people; The second is to use force to prevent the eunuchs from arresting the Donglin people. Now Liu Dexi has secretly transferred the five people a long time ago, which means that their plan to rescue the five people has failed.
Sun Yueling filled his chest with anger and said coldly to Liu Dexi: "The five of them were escorted into Beijing, and it was bound to be difficult to survive. If that is the case, then you should fight for them! β
β¦β¦
Outside the east gate of Suzhou, the flaming red flag is waving in the wind, and the thousand horses are silent like a forest.
Yang Yufan, the general of the Kunshan guard, stood at the head of the horse, raised his whip and shouted loudly at the head of the city: "I am Yang Yufan, the general of the Kunshan guard, and I was ordered to come to quell the rebellion of the mob in the city, so why don't you hurry up and open the city gate to let the army pass!" β
After receiving Mao Yilu's order, Yang Yufan immediately prepared his military horses, personally brought a thousand elite horsemen to hurry, and the large army followed. But what he never expected was that when a thousand elite horsemen came to the city of Suzhou, they actually had a closed door, and the soldiers guarding the city gate replied that no one was allowed to enter the city without the order of Lu Chong, the commander of the envoy.
Yang Yufan was a little confused, according to reason, he shouldn't have turned away, but now he can't even enter the city gate. After all, he was a great general in the army, and he soon came up with two possibilities: first, there was a lot of change in the city, and Lu Chong, the governor of the city, may have lost contact with the governor's yamen, so the city gate was closed and no one was allowed to enter or leave; Second, Lu Chong had been bribed by the local gentry, and he prevented himself from entering the city in order to buy time for the rioting people.
Although he guessed so, he couldn't believe in his heart that Lu Chong dared to collude with the local gentry to escort the mob rebellion this time, after all, this was a disobedient move against the imperial court, which was tantamount to a rebellion, and Lu Chong probably didn't have the courage to do so. Therefore, the first possibility is relatively large, Lu Chong is very likely to lose contact with the governor's yamen, and he was forced to occupy the city gate to prevent accidents.
Soon, the heralds at the head of the city confirmed his idea, and shouted to him that the people of the city had rioted, and that tens of thousands of people had gathered, and the city was in chaos. LΓΌ Chong had lost contact with the yamen of all walks of life, and had no choice but to close the city gate as a last resort to prevent the situation from developing to the point of irreversibility.
Yang Yufan suppressed the anxiety in his heart and shouted to the city: "Why don't you hurry up and inform General Lu and tell him that the Kunshan Wei Jing cavalry has arrived with one thousand, and the three thousand foot soldiers will arrive later." β
The herald at the head of the city shouted: "General Yang is coming with his troops in person, and I can't wait for it." General Lu is cruising in the city, I will go to pass it immediately, and ask General Yang to be calm and wait for a while! β
Although Yang Yufan felt a little strange when he heard this, he still waited patiently under the city. Unexpectedly, this was for most of the hour, and Lu Chong was never seen. He couldn't help but be a little angry, and shouted at the city again: "The situation is urgent and can't be delayed, you wait to open the city gate first, how can General Lu not allow it?" β
The soldier at the head of the city replied: "General Lu has issued a strict order, no one is allowed to enter the city, and there will be no forgiveness for violators." We are just a small soldier, even if we know that the general is here to relieve the siege, how dare we disobey General Lu's military orders. Please also ask the general to be patient, General Lu will come immediately! β
Yang Yufan was full of anger and angry, and shouted at the city: "If the matter is delayed, I will see that I will not behead you all." β
But the head of the city ignored his angry rebuke, and allowed him to roar under the city.
After waiting for more than half an hour, until the follow-up three thousand foot soldiers also came to the city of Suzhou, Lu Chong's figure finally appeared above the city, shouting at him: "General Yang came at the right time, I have been waiting for a long time!" Then the gates were opened and the army was allowed to enter the city.
Yang Yufan suppressed the anger in his heart, rode into the city, and when he saw Lu Chong, he asked, "How is the situation in the city?" β
Lu Chong said: "I just returned from patrolling the city, and the people in the city suddenly gathered tens of thousands of people, surrounded the governor's yamen, and even we were not allowed to enter. However, under our persuasion, they have begun to disperse one after another, and General Yang has arrived just in time to help us maintain order in the city and disperse all the mobs. β
Yang Yufan hit his horse and said to Lu Chong: "Let's go, let's go to the governor's yamen immediately!" β
β¦β¦
In the governor's yamen, Wang Qitai heard that Sun Yueling was going to kill Liu Dexi, and he was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly shouted at Sun Yueling: "Master Sun, be merciful to your subordinates, be merciful to your subordinates!" β
Even Kou Shen followed and persuaded: "Master Sun, don't, don't!" β
Liu Dexi's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said to Sun Yueling: "Sun Yueling, you have committed the crime of punishing the clan by inciting the people to storm the government and beating the superiors. If you are willing to give up, I can guarantee that you and your Fenghua Society will be okay in this turmoil, otherwise even if you can kill me today, the court will investigate it on another day, but I am afraid that none of you will be able to bear it. Pointing to the people behind him, he continued, "Not only you, but I am afraid that all of them will be burdened by you, and all of them will be exterminated." β
"Dog gelding, dare to be so arrogant at this point!" Zhou Wenyuan endured the pain in his chest, pointed at Liu Dexi and scolded, "Even if I sacrifice my life today, I will break your body into ten thousand pieces!" β
"Yes, even if I die, I will pull you as a backdrop!" Ma Jie shouted hatefully.
Sun Yueling suddenly stood up from his chair, glared at Liu Dexi angrily and said, "Since I, Sun someone, dare to do such a thing, I am not afraid that the court will investigate it in the future." Turning his head to Wang Qitai, Kou Shen and the others, "Today's events all started because of the eunuchs' edicts, and they have nothing to do with you. Today, we are also here to punish the first evil and promote justice. Everyone, please rest assured, today we will only kill Liu Dexi and the palace horseman, and it will never be unfavorable to you and other local parents and officials! β
When Wang Qitai heard him say this, the heart that had been hanging was put down, and he said: "Lord Sun is reasonable, and his words are reasonable......
Kou Shen frowned and didn't say a word. At this point, there was nothing he could do. Don't say it's him, I'm afraid even Governor Mao Yilu is at a loss, otherwise he wouldn't have quickly hid as soon as he heard the earth-shattering shouts outside, and he didn't know his whereabouts.
Liu Dexi smiled coldly, and said calmly: "Lord Sun is really full of a sense of justice, how can our family be so valued by Lord Sun!" Before he could say a word, his body suddenly moved forward sharply, and he slapped Sun Yueling on his chest with one palm.
The cold energy suddenly swept up, completely enveloping him.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Dexi took the lead and launched a surprise attack on Sun Yueling.
"Be careful!" Seeing this, Dongfang Shengping hurriedly shouted.
Sun Yueling had already taken precautions, and when he saw him slapping his palm, his right hand clenched into a fist, turned his fist into a stick, and punched him into the palm of his hand.
"Bang", fists and palms struck, Sun Yueling's body shook for a while, Liu Dexi took advantage of the momentum to flip over, and his whole body shot towards the roof tile like a sharp sword.
"Eunuch Hugh away!" Ma Jie saw that he was planning to escape, and hurriedly chased after him. Dongfang Shengping didn't wait for Sun Yueling to speak, and hurriedly fought with his sword.
Liu Dexi hooked his foot on the beam in the hall, turned around, slapped out with both palms, and wanted to force the two to retreat. His hand-held blade Ice Silk Dust had long been destroyed by Zhong Buli, and now he could only meet the joint pursuit of the two with a pair of fleshy palms.
The sound of muffled energy erupted, and Ma Jie was shocked and flew back. The long sword in Dongfang Shengping's hand was also turned by him and flew to the side of the beam.
"Ah" screamed, only to see a person with a sword falling from the beam, and everyone leaned over to see that it was actually a captain in brocade. It turned out that this man had been hiding on the beam, but he still could not escape, and was stabbed by the flying sword and fell to his death on the spot.
