On February 23, 1590, the nineteenth day of the first month of the Chinese calendar, when Father Gaemas introduced General Sparrow to David Jones, the newly baked Brigadier General Kintaro was in the secret room of a mansion in Jinling City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Kintaro, jack_sparrow, nicknamed Matsufukumaru, the eldest son of teague_sparrow and Hana*ko_sparrow (Hanako), has just been appointed as a general of the Ming Dynasty from the fourth grade, the brigadier general of the Liaoning Army, and is about to be promoted to a father. There was no way, Li Siwei's subordinates were very short of special operations bricks, and as soon as the operation on the Western Front stopped, he immediately pulled Kintaro over.

In the secret room, in addition to Brigadier General Kintaro, there are also the host of the Liaoyuan Plan, Master Xiao Li, Li Siwei, Li Desheng's General Military Division, Duan Xiao, Gao Gongzi, Gao Yingchun and several other leaders of the Liaoyuan Plan, as well as Li Sizhong, who came from Dalian with Kintaro. (I recently found out that Li Chengliang's grandson should be the "loyalty" generation, and I mistakenly identified it as the "thinking" generation, and I will make a mistake and not change it.) ）

Li Sizhong is a child in the third room, even if he doesn't study well, he doesn't study well, what kind of stealing, kidnapping, prostitution, gambling, drinking and slutting come at his fingertips, if it weren't for the big * smoke or very little use as medicine, this guy would also stick. In the spirit of waste utilization, Li Sizhong was sent to Jiangnan, ready to use him to poison Jiangnan.

"Yingchun, how are your people preparing?! We don't have our own people, right? "That sounds a bit contradictory." Returning to my lordship, all the men under the lowly command have been set up, and the weapons have been distributed, just waiting for the signal to be sent, and then immediately attack. They are all people in the rivers and lakes on the periphery, and they only know that they come to Jinling to make a big deal. "It turns out that Gao Gongzi's people are not his own people, they are peripheral personnel, and they can be sacrificed.

"Are their goals assigned?" "It's all been distributed, the imperial city, the official office, the government treasury, the arsenal, and the grain depot have all arranged manpower, and the places where they are placed are all near the target."

"How's the news from Jiro?" "With the assistance of General Kim, our previous operation was very successful, and many guards in Songjiang Province mutinied. Colonel Jin followed Wang An to Songjiang to suppress the day before yesterday, and all the soldiers and horses of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, except for those who guarded the imperial city, had been dispatched, and a lot of Xungui's private soldiers had also been dispatched. "Konjiro (jiro_sparrow) was also promoted to colonel, and he was about to become a general.

"Taro, what about your people?" Kintaro is the son-in-law of the Li family, and Li Siwei's tone has eased a lot. "There are brothers who have been prepared before, and the sons and daughters are moving smoothly. All the gunpowder and oil have been put in place, and the people are nearby. The soldiers who arranged to seize the gate had already entered the vicinity of Sanshanmen (now Shuiximen in Nanjing), and the ninja soldiers had also infiltrated the barracks, and they were drugged when it was time to eat. All arrangements are personally verified to ensure that they are correct. "Taro's Mandarin is already very fluent, just like what modern Chinese people speak.

"You came to Jiangnan, but your brothers were not allowed to see each other, and I wronged you!" Xiao Li is becoming more and more a leader. "Thank you, my lord, Jiro and I have a priority. Although we couldn't meet, I also asked someone to send something to Jiro, and Jiro asked him to bring a few bottles of his 20-year-old daughter red, saying that it was for me to protect myself from the cold when I was fighting. As he spoke, Taro magically added a silver flask in his hand and shook it. The jug is tiled, and the raised side is carved with an eagle and a lion, which Taro's father brought back to his son and a few sons out of nowhere.

"Duan Xiao, how many things did you get from the Nanjing arsenal?" "Most of the things in the arsenal in Nanjing are not as good as those in our Liaoning, and many of them are rusted, so I didn't take anything. However, when Colonel Kim entered the arsenal before, he saw a batch of flintlock muskets, Franc cannons, and Western armor purchased from the West, and said that it should be of reference value. I bought off the eunuchs on guard and replaced them with a batch of fakes. The other thing is to get some good swords. ”

"Remember to stop later! What about the silver and gold in the treasury? "Taking advantage of the tax silver in the warehouse, I exchanged a batch of fake gold and silver ingots, with 50,000 taels of gold and 100,000 taels of silver, and the rest is really too late to move."

"Well, in that case, there's no need to be a pity. It's almost time, so let's get ready! Duan Xiao, if you don't know how to fight and kill, don't get involved, you can evacuate out of the city together. "Obey the order, but, Lord Li, we won't affect Wang An by doing this, right? After all, we're going to use him in the future. ”

"No problem, Wang An led the Imperial Horse Supervisor to fight outside, and he can't be blamed for the problems with the garrison in Nanjing. The emperor may even use this excuse to punish Shilin again. You don't have to worry about this, you still have to arrange the retreat, go ahead. Brother Twelve, you also go along. "Seventeenth brother, I'm just going to leave when I arrive? I haven't seen Qin Huai Fengyue yet. ”

"Jinling City will soon be full of smoke, are you sure you want to stay? The third grandfather and the fifteenth brother (Li Sicheng) made it clear to you, right? Li Siwei's eyes were full of banter. Li Sizhong was not stupid, and replied curtly: "I'll just think about it, can't I go." ”

……

In the middle of the night, the city of Nanjing was quiet, and the noisy Qinhuai River had also fallen silent. It was freezing cold, and in addition to the husband who had no choice but to come out, all the people in Nanjing hid in the house and fell asleep, and even the soldiers who were supposed to patrol the night were too lazy to sleep.

"Knock-knock! Boom! Boom--boom! Boom! It's safe! "It's the third watch (11~1 o'clock in the morning).

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble~~~! ......" A series of violent explosions broke the silence of the winter night. The sound of explosions was followed by the fluctuations of the ground like an earthquake, and the roaring fire that dyed the sky red, making those who were awakened think that it was the end of the world.

"No mother! Vacuum hometown! No mother! Vacuum hometown! ......" In the explosions and firelight, it was as if countless figures had emerged from various dark corners, shouting slogans and rushing in confusion to all places where they thought they were rich.

The city of Nanjing was plunged into endless chaos. Ordinary people could only hide in their homes and shiver, hooligans and ruffians took the opportunity to loot, and the officers and soldiers of the guard post scurried around like headless flies. The nobles are all gathered near the imperial city, and their private soldiers have also experienced the tempering of the bandits some time ago, and they have some experience. In addition to some people staying at their homes, other people gathered together and set up a defensive line on the periphery to defend it strictly, which also added an additional line of defense to the periphery of the imperial city.

In the chaos, the Sanshan Gate was breached by bandits, all the defenders were killed, and the big ships along the river were also plundered. Of course, this was only a trivial part of all the events of the time.

The Nanjing court was in chaos and at a loss, and the civil officials knew how to throw themselves into the water, go into the fire, and hang themselves, but they didn't know how to suppress the riot and restore order. The performance of the nobles is not the same, Xu Weizhi, the ninth generation of the Duke of Wei who has just taken the throne, has performed very well, while commanding and urging the private soldiers to strictly guard against death, while sending people to connect with the nobles, various officials, and various guards, gathering people little by little, expanding the scope of control little by little, and eliminating bandits. Thanks to the heavy investment in hiring many Liaodong officers and elite soldiers, Xu Weizhi showed good leadership skills and worked hard to restore the city of Nanjing.

……

When the next evening, when the prince of Wang An led the army of the imperial horse supervisor to rush back from the Jinshan position in Songjiang Prefecture, order had been restored in Nanjing. Looking at the burning and collapsed houses everywhere, the corpses lying everywhere, and the looted treasury, arsenal, and grain depot, the exhausted prince's eyes darkened. If it weren't for Jin Jilang next to him, Wang An would have fallen off the horse.
