Chapter 313: Revenge! The enemy is in the Forbidden City!
"Father-in-law Liu, father-in-law Gu, you go find a piece of white cloth and come over, and then get some blood......"
Xie Hong's strategy is not arbitrary.
The border army has long been notorious, and the eyes of the foreign dynasties are also focused on them, and mobilizing them into the palace will stimulate the foreign dynasties too much, and it may directly evolve into street fighting, of course, it is not feasible. It is better to use them to attract the main force of the Beijing camp, and then use the Guards as the killer, this is what Xie Hong said.
Regarding the combat effectiveness of the Guards, except for the two leaders Xie Hong and Zhengde, even they themselves have no confidence, and when Gu Dayong and the others heard that they were going to use them, their faces turned pale with fright, let alone the foreign court.
This is a force that has been almost ignored, against the forbidden army known as the best in the world, how powerful they can be, Xie Hong is not very sure, otherwise he will not try his best to make up for it in equipment.
However, Xie Hong still pinned his hopes on them, in addition to the availability of people's hearts, it was also because he had some other arrangements.
It was precisely because of this neglect that the strategy of attacking the east and the west was so successful that except for the thousands of horsemen and the unavoidable Imperial Horse Prison Army, the other military forces in the capital were attracted to the Ordnance Division.
But this alone is not enough, it is also necessary to fight fast and slow.
There are many people involved in decision-making on Wenchen's side, and it is destined that their decision-making efficiency is not high, and it is slow to change the pre-determined strategy. And Xie Hong's side, as long as Zhengde supports him, it is almost his word, how high and high the efficiency is, as long as the strategy is set, it can be implemented immediately.
The goal is, of course, the Forbidden City, to kill Wang Yue and his henchmen, as soon as possible, at least before anyone finds out that there is no one in the Kunning Palace!
Xie Hong originally planned to set off after assembling the team, but Liu Jin came up with a new moth, which was naturally to be used, and the louder and louder the slogan, the better.
Revenge for the emperor, what a loud slogan! In order to be worthy of this loud slogan, you have to play a blood flag.
"Brother Xie, what are these things for?" The seven eunuchs looked at each other, but Gu Dayong had the best personal relationship with Xie Hong, and the fat man had the courage to ask with trepidation.
Everything that happened today is very strange, it really makes people scratch their heads, it's okay to say with a white cloth, maybe Lao Liu said the wrong thing, the emperor wants to give death or something, this is the unspoken rule in the palace, everyone understands. But what does it mean to ask for blood? Do you want to bled before strangulation?
This is a bit overdone, long live the feelings are really angry?
Xie Hong replied casually: "Oh, make the blood flag, we want to avenge Emperor Xiaozong, of course we have to play the flag, you hurry up, wait for the emperor to change his clothes, and we will leave." ”
Blood Flag? Revenge for Emperor Xiaozong? Including the whistleblower Liu Jin, everyone was dumbfounded, these two masters are really resolute, as soon as someone raised some suspicions, these two directly wanted to take revenge.
In addition to being frightened, Liu Jin was even more glad, needless to say, it must have been Xie Hong's idea for Long Live Ye, such a person is really a hedgehog, and he must not be provoked. The officials are just rumors, and this direct hearsay takes revenge.
And looking at this posture, it seems that he is going to attack the Forbidden City with a group of boy scouts, not to mention whether the elite is elite or not, but the forbidden army has nearly 10,000 people! Mother, be ruthless to yourself, and even more ruthless to your enemies! What kind of immortal is this? This ruthlessness is terrifying.
"Lord Xie, the imperial dining room is a little far from here, you have to ask for blood......" Ma Yongcheng said hesitantly, he actually wanted to ask what the revenge was all about, after all, it was too sudden. It can be seen that Xie Hong's expression is calm, but there is a layer of murderous aura hidden in his eyes, but he can't ask what he said.
"The old emperor's death is unknown, this revenge should have been avenged a long time ago! When the old slave was powerless, he didn't even dare to speak out, he could only bleed silently in his heart, and today there are Long Live Lord and Master Xie, and he wants to uphold justice! Although I can't go into battle to fight and contribute to the old emperor, my old Liu also dares to bleed! ”
Liu Jin saw the opportunity very quickly, and when he spoke, he didn't know where to take out a knife, and he took a big bowl and slashed the knife on his arm, and blood gushed out and flowed into the bowl.
After doing this, he echoed Xie Honglai in a loud voice, and his words were impassioned, which showed a tragic atmosphere against this somewhat bloody scene.
The dead eunuch is really ruthless enough, Xie Hong raised his eyes and saw that he was a little surprised, it seems that Liu Jin has also realized that he is rich and ruthless.
"Let's come too." Although the third father-in-law didn't have any festivity, he was ruthless, well, if he wasn't ruthless, he couldn't make up his mind to be stabbed below. He stepped forward and snatched the knife from Liu Jin's hand, and also gave himself a knife according to Liu Jin's appearance.
"Our family ......" Several other eunuchs also reacted, this is to follow the emperor to avenge the old emperor, when will it take to not behave at this time? I don't know who the enemy is, and whether he can avenge it, but his current performance will definitely be remembered in the heart of the Lord of Long Live in the future.
"Come on!" The eunuchs are so ruthless, Xie Hong will not be lazy, and he will give an order, and when he sends a pen and a roll of white cloth to the left and right, he waved his pen and wrote four big words on it: "Revenge!" ”
"Pass the order, raise the flag and swear it!"
"Whoa!"
Although Xie Hong's decision with Zhengde was fast, the assembly speed of the guards was not slow, and the three thousand people had already been arrayed. Xie Hong's original actions in Xuanfu were not in vain, and his heartfelt support for Zhengde made the teenagers of the Guards very enthusiastic, and they trained very hard, and even baseball, a competitive sport, could be quickly started, and it was natural to line up in line.
The place where they gathered was in Koshien!
"Greetings to the emperor, greetings to Lord Xie!"
As soon as Xie Hong and Zhengde appeared, the neat shouts of 3,000 people came like a tsunami, looking at the resolute faces and the enthusiasm in their eyes, Xie Hong's pride suddenly rose, the military heart was available, and the guards were famous all over the world, just today! He nodded, and everything went well, well, except for the second brother's outfit...... After Xie Hong's unique enlightenment, Zhengde got rid of the knot in his heart, and then naturally returned to a more normal state. Therefore, he deliberately changed his clothes...... He was originally wearing a wedding dress at the wedding, of course, it was not good as a combat uniform, and it was too eye-catching, and what he was wearing now was the No. 2 costume made by Xie Hong when he was in the military parade in Xuanfu.
It is true that this dress is a military uniform, but it is not a military uniform of this era, but similar to the military uniform of later generations, with shiny leather boots, a crisp top, and a large-brimmed hat...... The only thing that made Xie Hong more relieved was that this dress was black, in addition to the concealment effect, it also fit the theme of revenge, at least stronger than the big red cloak and sea blue feathers.
"Brothers, do you know who you are?" Xie Hong took a step forward and shouted loudly.
"The Emperor's Guard!" The shouts were neat.
"What do the Guards do?" Xie Hong asked again.
"For the king's forerunner, vigorously and resolutely! For the country's wings, such as the prosperity of the forest! Hoe and annihilate the Kou, in full swing! Guarding the Son of Heaven, immobile as a mountain! The mood of the guards became even more enthusiastic, this slogan of the army was known to them from the beginning, but today was the first time it was shouted in a bright light.
"Good." Xie Hong nodded, pointed to Xi'an Gate, and then waved a large circle, "You should all know what happened today." Someone! Without the permission of the emperor, they privately transferred troops, and also surrounded the guards of the Son of Heaven, they wanted to make a rebellion! Now is the time for the Guards to guard the Son of Heaven. ”
"I am willing to die for the emperor!" When they first knew how bad the situation was, the teenagers were in a similar mood to those squadron leaders, but after seeing the sudden appearance of Zhengde and Xie Hong's encouragement, no one had any worries at this time, everyone was enthusiastic, and they couldn't wait to fight immediately.
"Who is it who is investigating and secretly visiting the Xuanfu to suppress corruption and hoe annihilation? Who is sympathetic to the military morale and public opinion of the Xuanfu, and makes up the arrears, so that the soldiers and civilians of the Xuanfu have no worries about food and clothing? Who is ......?"
"It's the emperor! It was the emperor's "Xuanfu people's love for Zhengde, which was originally due to this." If there were no such things, for them, the emperor would just be a vague image, but after experiencing these and getting along with Zhengde for a period of time, this love has been sublimated into supreme loyalty.
"You know what? Who is it who is greedy for military salaries, so that the soldiers at the border pass do not cover their bodies and do not have enough to eat? Who is it, deceiving the superiors and subordinates, driving the soldiers to death indiscriminately, but hiding the warriors' exploits? Who is it that actually raised a knife against the emperor? ”
"It's a corrupt official, a rebellious minister and a thief!" Of course, the suffering of the border passes comes from the Tatars' annual entry into the prison, but if it weren't for the frenzied corrupt officials and corrupt officials, how could the soldiers of the border army not be able to win the Tartars? They deducted military salaries and provided inferior equipment, and many of the border soldiers were not equipped as well as the so-called elite soldiers of the Tartars.
No matter how elite they are, they are just Tartars, iron and wood are things that are scarce in the steppe desert, can they still conjure them? As a result, as a soldier of the Ming Dynasty, the equipment is not as good as the Tartars, why is this?
"These rebellious ministers and thieves not only want to murder the emperor, they also murdered the emperor, the emperor is a benevolent lord, very popular with the people, these thieves are afraid, they are afraid that Emperor Xiaozong will be benevolent, they are afraid that Emperor Xiaozong will be sympathetic to the people, therefore, they have poisoned Emperor Xiaozong, and a generation of British lords died young...... As the Son of Heaven Guard, what should we do? ”
"Revenge!" Protecting the Son of Heaven is the original intention of the Guards, and the enemy's hatred can only be washed away with blood.
Xie Hong saw that the army's heart had begun to boil, and he didn't say more, took a step back, looked at Zhengde, and signaled that it was time for him to appear on the main stage.
"Soldiers, the enemy is in the Forbidden City, I am with you, come with me, target: Xihuamen!" Zhengde has never liked long speeches, not to mention that the mood of the guards has been completely high at this time, and there is no need to agitate again, he directly pointed out the target, and then resolutely waved his hand and turned around.
"Swear to break through the Xihua Gate and take the Forbidden City directly!" Three thousand soldiers responded with a bang and followed.
With the advance of the Guards, the clouds of war in the Imperial City were thick, and fierce battles were imminent.
