readx;???“ Disperse! Disperse! Everybody go to Nguyen Phuc Yuan! Those who catch the national thief Ruan Phuc Yuan will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver! A junior colonel of the forbidden army stood at the gate of the palace and shouted: "Anyone who has won the head of the guard, each head is three taels." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infozha4ngdegao is not allowed to set fire to the house, and anyone who dares to commit adultery will be killed! ”

The palace is different from Hue City, the people in Hue City are gray in the eyes of these forbidden soldiers, but the palace is full of palace maids and eunuchs, and the skills of these people can not be cultivated in a year or two. And the palace is full of treasures, if the forbidden soldiers are allowed to loot and burn the city at will, the loss of palace treasures is a trivial matter, if this kind of brick and wood structure of the palace is burned, it will not be burned into ruins, so it is strictly forbidden to set fire and kill people at will in the city when mobilizing in the barracks, and the reward for not sealing the knife is outside the palace.

However, the palace guards are not within the scope of protection, and since the forbidden army has entered the palace, some of the palace guards are still making the last resistance, and some are kneeling and surrendering. The priority of kneeling and surrendering was cut off by his head, and this kind of atrocity directly led to the palace guards behind knowing that it was impossible to escape death, so it was better to fight with the forbidden army to break the net. The palace guards were originally selected from the forbidden army with the best martial arts, and now these palace guards began to play with their lives, and it was the turn of the forbidden soldiers to have a sharp increase in the casualty rate. Not to mention that the palace guards have been trained in the fighting of the new army during this time, even if their heads are full of cement, they have listened to how to kill, and now in this situation where killing one is enough to kill two and earn one, there are three or four palace guards chasing more than a dozen forbidden soldiers running around the street.

Sun Kekeke is the most hateful, and the love is not the most examined

However, the number of palace guards was too small, and when the dangerous city gate was breached, the continuous influx of forbidden soldiers finally succeeded in overpowering the quality with quantity.

"Where is Nguyen Phuc Yuan? Where is Princess Jie? Zuo Xiang angrily yelled at a few like-minded officials who rebelled together, "We have killed and wounded thousands of forbidden troops, and we finally stormed this palace, why can't we find Nguyen Phuc Yuan?" ”

Those officials also looked gloomy, "I don't know, the Jing Nanjun has surrounded the palace in the shortest possible time since last night, ensuring that no one can escape from the palace." After the city was broken, all the ways out of the palace were tightly sealed, only those who went in did not come out, but they didn't know when Ruan Fuyuan and Princess Ji escaped. ”

"Yes, now that more than 3,000 houses have been searched, all the eunuchs and palace maids have been gathered near the main hall to screen them one by one, but some of us have taken a cursory look there, and there is no Ruan Fuyuan."

"And what about the rebels of the New Army?" Zuo Xiang suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his head, and hurriedly asked, "Did the rebels of the New Army find the corpse?" ”

"The rebels of the New Army?" Several officials looked at each other, "However, when the inner city was broken, soldiers found several shotguns of the new army near the city gate, but the clothes worn by the corpses were the same as those worn by the palace guards. ”

"Where's the Ministry of Works?" Zuo Xiang hurriedly asked, and at the same time said to a few officials next to him, "You let the forbidden army search carefully in the palace, if the old man is not mistaken, the new army must have protected Ruan Yi and escaped from the secret passage." Go find out how many New Army shotguns have been captured, and go! ”

The officials immediately turned around and went to work. The Ministry of Industry Shangshu ran over out of breath, "Lord Zuo Xiang! What's the matter with finding the next office? ”

When Zuo Xiang saw that the Ministry of Industry was coming, he hurriedly asked, "How many shotguns did you send to the palace at that time?" How many handcuffs are there? ”

Gongbu Shangshu's eyes widened, "How do I know?" This thing has always been in charge of the squire. ”

"What about the Ministry of Works?" Zuo Xiang couldn't help but be a little annoyed and asked directly.

"He died before the siege began," said someone on the sidelines, "from the shotguns on the towers." ”

"Search for me! Be sure to find out Nguyen Phuc Yuan for me! If you live to see people, you have to see corpses when you die! This thing has occupied the throne for decades," Zuo Xiang turned around in place, "and now he is finally going to be unlucky!" ”

The young general serving next to him hurriedly reported: "I heard that Ruan Yi was injured at the beginning of the siege, and he should not be able to escape far, and the little eunuch said that he was once called to ask for a doctor, but the doctor didn't dare to go out, so I don't know how Ruan Yi's injury is." ”

Zuo Xiang couldn't help but show joy on his face, "I was injured at the beginning of the siege, no wonder the city was defended in a mess, and the palace was captured in just one night, and the three armies were ordered!" He hurriedly shouted to the few junior colonels of the forbidden army who were waiting for orders: "Since Ruan Yi has been injured, he must be extremely seriously injured, and he will send someone to investigate carefully." In addition, let people ask the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace if they have secret passages or secret rooms, and dig three feet into the ground to find out Ruan Yi! The group of small schools hurriedly took the order and left.

In the dark corridor, several guards were hunched over and carrying a stretcher in it. This corridor is not high, the highest is only 1.7 meters, although these guards are only 1.6 meters tall, but they are still very nervous about the possibility of running into heads. They all had cloth belts around their waists, and each had a revolver pinned to it. About ten meters in front of him, there is also a person who opens the road, and the person who opens the road is also holding a revolver in his hand, in this narrow corridor, the use of a pistol is the most suitable, whether it is a quick aim or a turn of the body, the pistol will not affect the use in the slightest.

In the middle of the procession walked several women, none of them wearing the usual Ao Dai of Annan, but dressed in the same clothes as ordinary guards, their hair was coiled up and wrapped in turbans, and as long as they did not speak, they could not be seen from a distance. But most of the women had a white senate belt with a stiff canvas holster and a pistol in the holster. The woman who walked in front suddenly became Princess Ji, and at this time she stared at Ruan Fuyuan on the stretcher in front of her with an extremely nervous expression. Since her father was hit by an arrow at the beginning of the battle, he had only been slightly impaired at first, but it didn't take long for Nguyen Phuc Nguyen to retreat to the inner city, and by the time the gate below began to show signs of insecurity, Nguyen Phuc Nguyen had begun to be a little confused. By now, Nguyen Phuc Yuan had completely lost consciousness and passed out in a coma. Fortunately, Princess Ji knew that there was a secret passage under the garden rockery to the west of the palace, otherwise she would have been caught in an urn by the chaotic forbidden army.

Speaking of which, it is destined that this secret passage was originally excavated by Princess Ji herself more than ten years ago, in order to secretly go out to play without alarming Ruan Fuyuan and the palace guards, using the eunuchs hired by the princess's own "pocket money". In fact, Ruan Fuyuan knew this secret passage very well, and he directly paid the silver for the eunuchs to help excavate it, and after the digging was completed, these eunuchs were used intensively to ensure that the existence of the secret passage would not be revealed. Even if this method does not work, the forbidden army does not know about the existence of this secret passage now, so the new army still has enough time to break off.

The soldiers of the New Army planted the few large grenades near the entrance to the secret tunnels, and the Janissaries were not in the slightest wary of such mines, which would collapse if they were triggered by an explosion. Moreover, the mines of the new army were set up absolutely without conscience, and an explosion point was set up about 40 meters ahead. Moreover, once this explosion point explodes, it will cause the collapse of at least 20 meters of Yongdao, so that after two rounds of explosions, the speed of the pursuers will be slowed down for at least three or four hours. By the time the pursuers found the exit to the secret passage, they had already left.

The post-department does not refer to the remote post and the cool secret department

Six soldiers and five guards of the Forces nouvelles were killed, and thirteen guards and three soldiers of the Forces nouvelles were killed in the battle, leaving only one squad leader of the Forces nouvelles with these eleven men who were proficient in the use of rifles. When the battle broke out at the gate of the city, Princess Ji knew that the destruction of the city was imminent, and immediately ordered to withdraw with a rifle. Except for the rifles that fell at the city gate, the other rifles have been recovered, and the stretcher now used to carry Nguyen Phuc Nguyen is carried with rifles.

Princess Ji was completely unprepared for this coup, she has now lost the port of Champong, because of the assassination, the princess's mansion can not return, and now it is a coup d'état, and her father's life is in danger. She couldn't help but cry quietly, and her heart was fortunate that her mother had passed away early.

"Your Highness Princess, what should we do next? Where to go? The squad leader hurriedly leaned over and asked softly.

Princess Ji just shook her head and continued to walk forward with her head down.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, let's go north, if we can contact General Lin, the marshal of the South Shore Army who is confronting the North Rebellion, we should be able to let the 50,000 people of the South Bank Army go south to quell the rebellion."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness Princess, General Lin has always been the pillar of the country, he has been rewarded by the emperor many times, and he has 50,000 elite military horses.

"But I'm afraid the emperor's injury can't be delayed." The medical soldier said faintly next to him, "The type of poison in the emperor is not yet clear, although I have released the poisonous blood for the emperor, but I don't know if it has been cleaned up, I think if you want to be saved, it is best to rush to Dongfang Port, where the veteran doctors are very powerful, we medical soldiers are only learning a drop in the bucket, it is enough to save the life and help the wounded, not to mention the veteran doctors." ”

"Yes...... "The squad leader of the new army also said, "Xia Guan also thinks that it is the most important thing to go to Dongfang Port to join the Senate, there are our troops there, in addition to the financial resources of Her Royal Highness the Princess, we even have the ability to recapture the port of Champa, and retake Annam based on the port of Champong." ”

The enemy Koko does not post the main place to check the ghost and take over the secret

The princess's pace suddenly stopped, and the people behind hurriedly stopped, and the few who walked fast collided together, and the words of the new army squad leader made the princess's eyes suddenly brighten. To say that it is not wrong at all, in addition to this secret passage, in addition to this secret passage, the more important thing is the new army trained by the Senate and the elite weapons provided by the Senate. Now he still has a silver mountain stored there in the Senate, if he can return to the port of the east and quickly expand the army - this is not a problem at all, the southern and northern invaders have brought a lot of manpower to the port of Champang, and it is not difficult to expand the army at all. And weapons are not a problem for the production system of Dongfang Port, her sister-in-law Gu Qingqian once promised her that as long as she needs, she can provide 200 rifles for the new army every month, and if you buy bullets from Dongfang Port, the price can be more favorable. And Gu Qingqian also revealed to her intentionally or unintentionally that the Senate rifle, which she now regards as a militaristic weapon, is even only the lowest equipment in the Senate's equipment system. She is well aware of this, compared to the Senate rifle loading one shot, the revolver that came out a few months later can crack six shots in a row, and the power of the two is almost equal, although the shooting distance is slightly inferior to the pistol, but the pistol is far more convenient to carry than the rifle up to 1.5 meters.

What's more, now that my father is injured, although he is breathing steadily now, it is difficult to guarantee that something bad will happen in the future. Although it is hundreds of miles from Hue to Dongfang Port, the post stations along the way should not know the news of the mutiny, and it should be possible to rush to Dongfang Port in a very short time by changing horses through the post stations. If you go north to find General Lin, these powerful generals are often highly meritorious, and they are already very polite if they don't make trouble, and if they know that Hue has a mutiny, it is not impossible to directly arrest them and send them back to Hue. In this comparison, although there are only a few hundred people in Qiaotou Town, Beiqiaotou Town, Dongfang Port, these own troops are far more reliable than those generals stationed in the feudal town, "No one can be trusted, only they can be trusted!" Princess Ji couldn't help but secretly make up her mind, raised her head and said to the squad leader of the new army, "Let's go to Dongfang Port, let's go to recapture the port of Zhancheng and recapture Annan!" ”

The land is not the most hateful enemy

"Lord Zuoxiang! Left-eyed! An official dressed in a stained robe ran over, shouting and shouting happily along the way, "I have found Ruan Yi's escape route, and a few eunuchs have seen some people carrying a bird gun and carrying a yellow-robed man to the back garden!" ”

"Yellow-robed!" Zuo Xiang jumped up suddenly, "In this entire palace, except for Ruan Yi, who else dares to wear a yellow robe?" Just go! Ask someone to search in the back garden! Dig three feet into the ground and find them. ”

"Lord Zuoxiang!" Someone else ran over, "Two old eunuchs say there's a secret passage in the back garden!" Ruan Zhiding must have escaped from there! ”

At this moment, there was a gong at the gate of the city, and a herald came running quickly, "Lord Master! The Maidno marines sent a man who said he was a descendant of the Lê clan. ”

"It's finally here!" Zuo Xiang couldn't help but take a long breath, and shouted at the herald beside him: "Go and call the book of the Ministry of Rites, just say that the old man is visiting!" ”
