Chapter Seventy-One: The Scarlet Imperial Capital (4)
The fireworks rose on all sides of Yanjing City, far away from the capital thirty or forty miles, and close to only ten miles. The gap between this distance is the difference between Tan Si and the sentinels placed on all sides of Yanjing City.
At this time, Chu Wanli had already slapped the table and slapped the bench and argued with Lin Xu for almost an hour.
On the battlefield, time flies. At ** o'clock in the morning, the gunshots began to sound in the Nanyuan military camp, and by the time Lin Xu and a few others finally rushed over with the last two battalions of reinforcements in the chaos in the capital, it was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon. When Lin Xu and the others generally controlled the situation, another hour or two passed. When Chu Wanli finally braved sporadic bullets and connected with them under the white flag, the sky was almost dark!
Chu Wanli was really anxious. Seeing that Han Zhongping's plan was going on step by step, he was the target here first. Then Tan Si and they didn't know what they were doing, and they actually transferred the two battalions of soldiers who finally controlled the situation in the capital - now everything is ready, Han Zhongping and they can launch it at any time!
He also thought that Han Zhongping must have someone to answer outside the city. The Xiangjiao is in turmoil, and the only thing to be afraid of is Tan Sitong's current soldiers and horses, as well as the Yanjing City Gate that cannot be opened. Zhili is so vast, and the soldiers and horses sent out by Tan Sitong to quell the chaos can control the dots and lines are very limited. They are outside Yanjing City, as many senior brothers and sisters as they want to gather, as long as Tan Sitong is killed, as long as this army of soldiers and horses loses the ability to move because the dragons have no leader, as long as the gate of Yanjing City is opened from the inside out!
He can even completely deduce the next situation, Tan Sitong has no one around him, and he is killed. This army was barely supporting, and it didn't know that it had been bought off by Old Man Han for a few battalions, as long as there was news in the city that Tan Sitong had been killed and the Xiangjiao had entered the city, it would be a situation where the hall was suddenly scattered! The Xiangjiao brigade gathered and waited outside, taking advantage of the situation to attack the city, and the inside and outside should be combined, and Yanjing City was reduced to a sea of blood!
Didn't he and Xu Yifan go against each other to the end to avoid this worst outcome?
God knows how much time is left for him!
As soon as he connected with the visitor, he immediately understood his identity. asked them to immediately get in touch with Tan Sitong and tell Tan Sitong in the city that the Praetorian Guard had nothing to do with the Xiangjiao, and was here to protect the millions of living beings in Yanjing City! I also told them honestly and unceremoniously that this court is finished, Xu Yifan is rushing here in the starry night, and he will arrive in three or four days, and now if you have a little heart, you should cooperate with him Chu Wanli, immediately control the situation, and immediately transfer troops back to the city. Keep Tan Sitong, stabilize the situation in the city, and don't collapse before Xu Yifan arrives!
But the other party's response made him even more annoyed.
There are three people who control the situation here, all of whom are Tan Sitong's henchmen. Lin Xu, Kang Guangren and Liu Guangdi. The surname Kang and the surname Liu are a bit submissive, but they are the youngest, but Lin Xu, who is in his early twenties, has a big idea. Looking at Lin Xu, they don't object to Xu Yifan coming to take over the situation in the Northland as soon as possible - anyway, the imperial court is rotten like this, and the Northland is rotten like this, and people with long eyes can see it.
But now the situation is chaotic, and the distinction between the Xiangjiao and the Praetorian Guard is not very clear. He repeatedly asked Chu Wanli to show the seal letter issued by Xu Yifan to prove their identity. Otherwise, I don't dare to easily report the news here and misreport the military situation, which will harm millions of lives in the city! Not to mention letting them go into the city to take control of the situation - what if they really are a party of the Xiangjiao?
Speaking of this, Chu Wanli wanted to prove his identity, Kang Guangren and Liu Guangdi next to Lin Xu began to echo, from one person talking to three people talking, which was doubly entangled. Chu Wanli really can't take this, he is not a minister who has already become famous and has a deep foundation, and he knows many people. In addition, Xu Yifan sent them over to do secret work, and he was a little uneasy and kind, where is there an official seal of protection? - Even if you take it out, these three guys, it is estimated that you will have to wonder if it is fake for half a day!
The officers who were watching were even more wide-eyed. Most of them, the soldiers left behind by Liu Kunyi, are grateful for the grace of the late Liu Dashuai, and they have far exceeded people's expectations of the army of the Qing Dynasty, and they have struggled to support themselves until now in such a chaotic northland. Now it's the Xiangjiao and the Praetorian Guard, and their thousands of thin soldiers want to monitor the Xiangjiao and protect such a large Yanjing City, which is already overstretched, plus the internal and external situation is chaotic like this, they would have no idea for a long time, if it weren't for Tan Sitong's clear and effective issuance of orders one after another, so that they subconsciously obey the order, maybe these thousands of people would have been scattered a long time ago!
This controversy is more than an hour, Chu Wanli also noticed that it is more than an hour, and none of the three people here thought of reporting the news of the ceasefire here to Tan Sitong first!
Night had fallen.
"Guys, do you think there's time yet? Now that there are thousands of soldiers gathered in Nanyuan, you probably subconsciously feel that you are in a safe place, but you don't want to think about it, Tan Sitong is almost alone in Yanjing City now! You can go out and have a look, maybe you can smell it, and thousands of people may be lying in ambush near the left, waiting for the gate of Yanjing City to open open! There's no time, there's really no time............ I can't wait any longer, I'll go back now, take my own brothers, and go straight to the city gate, maybe when the city gate is opened from the inside, I will have time to rush in and save Tan Sitong, and try to protect as many people as possible! If you dare to shoot to block it, I will not hesitate to lead the team out! ”
In the end, Chu Wanli slapped the table violently, almost yelling at them!
Lin Xu was shocked, he was originally a young and vigorous person. This is also the first time that Tan Sitong has come out to take charge alone, Kang Guangren and Liu Guangdi, the two companions, are a little depressed in the face of this situation, but they are trying their best to do things, and they don't show their faces with Lin Xu, a young man. But he was still in high spirits. Chu Wanli roared like this, his expression was full of contempt for them, which made him unbearable, and he also slapped the table and stood up: "You dare!" Now that there is no difference between friend and foe, do you dare to try it? ”
Chu Wanli smiled contemptuously, and walked out, the pain in his calf and stomach twitched and twitched, making his fire rise above his head: "Look at it............ Tan Sitong wants to go north with you to save this last world, I really don't know if it's better to make people cry or laugh............ I don't have time to talk nonsense with you! ”
Lin Xu's body trembled, and he ordered loudly: "Take him down!" ”
Ge Qitai, who had been following Chu Wanli's side closely, suddenly crossed behind Chu Wanli and roared back: "Lao Tzu, who of you dares?" "He is such a grown man, he is full of energy, and his roar shook everyone's ears, and there was really the tendency of Yan Zhao's predecessor Zhang Yide to drink the river water backwards! Lin Xu, who was yelling at him, shook his legs, and sat back on the chair with his ass!
Several Goshha and the leading officers who were standing at the door were at a loss, watching Chu Wanli limp over, and no one thought to listen to the order to stop him. Right now, they really don't know what to do.
Everyone watched silently as Chu Wanli walked outside the door. When I arrived outside the simple sentry shed used for temporary negotiations, fireworks were rising in all directions............ Chu Wanli raised his head and quietly looked at all this in front of him, and the soldiers who had been raising their guns and lying on the earthen ramparts of the shooting chest wall and monitoring the movements of Yanqingbiao also stood up one after another, and they also looked up in the same daze, looking at the fireworks signals rising one after another in Yanjing City.
It seems that in just a short moment, you can hear the faint sound of crowds shouting, coming from all directions of the capital! At such a distance from the capital, the sound that can be heard here can be gathered, and I don't know how many people gather in one place!
"Xiangjiao, it's going to attack the city............ Tan Sitong, I'm afraid it's too late to save it. Chu Wanli stood there and smiled coldly.
was preempted by the old fox surnamed Han again............ In the sentry shed, Lin Xu and a few officers also rushed out, looking at everything in front of them with a pale expression, listening to everything around them. Chu Wanli turned his head to look at them: "............ We're going to the city, and we're going to save as much as we can. Behind the scenes, he must also be captured! Are you following? If you don't follow, don't stand in front of Lao Tzu! The marshal will arrive in a few days, those of you who lead the troops, if you have a little heart, and want to have a background in front of the marshal in the future, follow Lao Tzu! This is called the real help of the crisis! ………… The Qing Dynasty is over! ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ muzzle flashed, and suddenly flashed in the darkness. Tan Sitong, who stood there and saw rows of muzzle flames flashing on the wall of a big mansion not far away, actually had an illusion, in his feelings, it seemed that the deafening gunfire sounded long after the flash!
He also didn't notice that Wang Wu had already slammed him to the ground, but just raised his head on the ground and watched the blood splash out in the night. Watching people convulse and fall to the ground as if they had been struck by lightning. The dozens of soldiers who were on guard at the street corner were knocked down almost simultaneously in this row of guns!
Everything in front of him had slowed down in his eyes, and he lay there, and he could see figures jumping down from the courtyard wall and pouring out of the doors of the great mansion, and the first man threw the lighted powder bag in his hand. When it landed, it exploded into what seemed to be a black and white fire, and the refugees in cotton clothes were set on fire, stumbling and running around, causing an even bigger fire. Bullets whizzed overhead, and the crowd had blown up their nests, screaming and screaming and running around. In the streets, people are crowded, people are bumping into people, people are stepping on people, people are climbing walls and banging on doors, just to avoid those fierce gods who rush in along the streets!
The refugees, who were dizzy and ran in the wrong direction, fell to the ground in a row in the rain of bullets, and the blood spurted from the human arteries was almost half a day high. The corpses lay on top of each other on the street. And those fierce gods dressed in black and wrapped in green cloth pressed here without stopping, and some of them had already carried their spears on their backs, with a short spear in one hand on the left and right, constantly spitting tongues of fire!
He also seemed to see an old man in a red flowered horse coat, a yellow cloak, and a horned hat in the firelight. Surrounded by this team, striding forward, there seemed to be a flag fluttering behind him, faintly, and the three big characters of Qiu Wang Han could be seen!
He was pulled up again, a large hand grabbed him, and a dozen goshkhas stood in front of him, cutting off all his sight. He didn't even notice that he was kicking and punching, shouting, "I'm not leaving!" I will die these people. ”
The big hand grabbed him and dragged him straight into the prime minister's yamen, the bullets whizzing overhead, and the gosh who stood in front of him fell to the ground softly. In the end, only three or four bloodied men retreated, and with the last bit of strength, desperately closed the door.
The big hand that grabbed him and fled in turned his face again, shouted loudly, and shook him vigorously. But I didn't hear anything, and what shook in front of me was the sudden, nightmarish scene just now!
Another slap hit him in the face. Then came an angry shout: "Brother! Brothers! You've got to hold on! We want to transfer the soldiers from outside the city back to quell the chaos! I have to hold on until Brother Xu comes over! The old and young masters of Yanjing City are counting on you! ”
The normal vision, hearing, and thinking ability returned to Tan Sitong at this time.
The cries outside, the sound of gunshots, and the sound of refugees banging on the door trying to escape into the Prime Minister's Yamen, seemed to engulf him all from the moment he regained consciousness!
"Tan is ashamed of the people of the capital!" Tan Sitong stood there pounding his chest. At this time, there were already refugees who wanted to climb over the wall to get in, but the pursuing bullets hit the wall with a fluttering sound, and almost all the people who climbed the wall first were knocked down!
Wang Wu was sweating profusely, and grabbed Tan Sitong tightly: "Brother, the fifth brother protects you out of the city and goes to transfer troops in!" ”
Tan Sitong smiled sadly: "Fifth brother, my brother can't do anything anymore............ I regret that I didn't listen to Brother Chuanqing's words, this Qing Dynasty has long been irretrievable! It's just a pity for millions of people in the capital, and they want to accompany this Aixin Jueluo family to be buried! ”
Wang Wu shook his shoulder eagerly, almost yelling: "There is a way, brother, you are a scholar, there must be a way!" ”
Tan Sitong's face turned pale and pointed around: "Gunshots rang out in the city, and there was even more fire." The soldiers left to me by Lord Liu have been barely supporting and maintaining, and now I don't know that there is a great chaos in the capital, and maybe there will be a large number of incense sects to attack the city, and it will be the situation of the disintegration of the soldiers soon! Where to transfer troops into the city, how to save these millions of living beings? ”
As if to respond to his words, a frenzied cry had already sounded outside: "Tan Sitong has gone!" Tan Sitong has gone! The incense sect has entered the city! The incense sect has entered the city! ”
Looking around, there are already more fires rising everywhere in Yanjing City - Han Zhongping, who is cautious and has planned this revenge for 30 years, can play the cards in his hand, not only the children of these two hundred main backbones. Everywhere in the capital, there are small groups of people lurking, although they don't have the ability of these 200 sons to be stubborn, but they can also set fire to the capital and cause chaos!
The sound of crying and shouting became louder and louder, and in the end, it was mixed together, like a violent typhoon, sweeping the entire Yanjing City!
Literally, this is already a hellish sight.
Tan Sitong closed his eyes and didn't say anything, just waiting to die. The chaotic sound outside was getting closer and closer, and seeing that he had already rushed to the door of the prime minister's yamen, Wang Wu gritted his teeth, pushed Tan Sitong violently, and shouted: "Go!" Didn't you say that the Praetorian Guard was outside the South Gate? Go find the Praetorian Guard! ”
Tan Sitong opened his eyes: "Fifth brother, don't you still understand?" Maybe it was Xu Yifan who colluded with the incense sect! All of this is what Xu Yifan is happy to see! His words are not cleared, but usurped! ”
Wang Wu pushed him fiercely: "Go through the back door!" I believe in my Brother Xu as much as I believe in you! Tell me Brother Xu, my Wang Wu begged him to save millions of living beings in the capital! Go, go! ”
Wang Wu's body was like a mountain, and after pushing Tan Sitong away, he stood there. Slowly pulled out the big knife on his back. Facing the gate of the Prime Minister's Yamen. Tan Sitong staggered and was pushed out of the distance, and glanced back at Wang Wu.
The fifth brother hasn't given up yet, why did he give up? Fifth brother, fifth brother! We, the readers, are like ants in front of you!
A manly man, by this time, he no longer needs to be a child. Tan Sitong took a deep look at Wang Wu's back, turned around and rushed away.
"Fifth brother............ Fifth brother! We two brothers, we owe you a lot! ”
The door of the Prime Minister's Yamen was slammed open, and more than a dozen people rushed in with a burst of gunfire, and a few Goshha had already fallen to the ground without humming.
This burst of random guns, puff hit the ground bricks flying wildly, raising a puff of dust, and a figure wrapped in the dust rolled between the bullets and rain, and in the blink of an eye, it turned to the more than a dozen men with green cloth and baotou who broke in.
The figure that was originally shrunk into a ball, as soon as it touched the person, suddenly grew up, the tall figure covered half of the front of the courtyard door, and the sword flashed in the shadows, and two were split down in an instant, and blood was spilled on the ground.
This knife was fired by Wang Wu, and it killed the person who rushed in by surprise at once! These Han Zhongping's subordinates were all spears, Wang Wu rolled into them at this time, the spears suddenly couldn't be used, their reactions were so fast, they retreated towards the door with a buzz, and some people had already dropped their spears to pull out the six-wheeled pistols on their waists. But Wang Wu has already gone out to buy Tan Sitong a little time, how can they pass through the prime minister's yamen? Immediately stuck to them, and swung out with a knife!
When there was a sound of metal hitting metal, it was a foreign gun that stretched out and blocked Wang Wu's knife. Holding a fast gun as a cold weapon, standing in front of Wang Wu was Zhang Yu!
Dozens of men scattered in an uproar, countless quick guns were raised, and the bolts were pulled one after another, and they were about to fire!
Zhang Yu shouted fiercely: "Don't shoot!" ”
Wang Wuyi smiled, withdrew the big knife in his hand, and held it across his chest, his stocky and sturdy figure blocked the gate of the Prime Minister's Yamen, and the crying sound outside was still like a river and a sea, but it couldn't cover his roar: "Just shoot!" My king Wu was born in the capital, died in the capital, acted all his life, was worthy of heaven and earth, and entered the ancestral tomb after death! If you want to pass, step over the corpse of my fifth king! What is it that allows you to do something to these millions of creatures? Not a human thing! ”
Zhang Yu snorted, dropped the foreign gun in his hand, Wang Wu's knife cut off the barrel, and the body of the gun was split in half! Zhang Yu waved his hand, and he no longer saw that gloomy and sleepy look on his body, and between his gestures, he was completely in the style of a grandmaster.
"Give the fifth master face, you separate and go around the wall to chase Mr. Tan............ I'll leave it to me. ”
Those men were stunned: "Zhang Da Protector ............"
Zhang Yu raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Go quickly!" ”
At this time, Han Zhongping's old voice came from behind: "Listen to the order of the protector of the law, go around the wall to chase Mr. Tan!" He gave the order, and everyone did not hesitate anymore, and ran away as if they were sticking to the wall. In the darkness, Han Zhongping walked slowly surrounded by several people, and saw Wang Wu guarding the door from a distance.
Wang Wu looked at him in astonishment: "It turns out that your old man is secretly messing with everything!" Brother Xu understands you, but I, Brother Tan, am confused! ………… Old man, it turns out that you are from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom............ After more than 30 years, even if this hatred cannot be dissolved, does it have to be martyred for these millions of living beings? I don't understand! ”
Han Zhongping smiled slightly bitterly, shook his head and said, "Fifth Master, you are a sincere person, a man who stands up to the sky." We'll have a fight, and we can only give you a fair chance at this time............ You can't save Mr. Tan, even if Tan lives first, how can you save this Yanjing City? The person who can stop the old man is now far away in Jiangning! Fifth master, don't say anything, I'll just watch the battle here............ Send the fifth master on this last journey! ”
Wang Wu smiled: "Old man, I don't need you to pretend!" Han Zhongping just smiled and shook his head, but did not answer. Wang Wu also looked solemn, and pointed at Zhang Yu, who was standing there silently, with a knife: "Zhang Da Protector............ If I'm not mistaken, you are the unborn genius of the first Song family of Xingyi twenty years ago, and Song Feimao who practiced Xingyi to the realm of divine transformation in his twenties? It's a shame for your hard work! Fortunately, you also know that it is embarrassing, and you dare not use the name given to you by your parents! ”
Zhang Yu said lightly: "After tonight, I will be able to restore my name............ The fifth master, Tai Chi Annihilation, gossip slippery, the most poisonous but the heart............ The knife of the fifth master just now, sticking to the bullet and getting in, is really handsome. I respect you, if you don't use a foreign gun, you will lose the knife, just let me, the shape of me, will know the gossip palm of the fifth master! ”
When he said this, his body slowly sank, and he put on a posture of "three-pointed photo", which was the authentic and no longer authentic "three-pointed photo", and he opened up the bearing of the great master of the unity school, and his body was like an abyss, standing there, as if he was a mountain!
Wang Wu also sank his face, this person in front of him was really an amazing martial arts master. Although he has been polishing his martial arts all his life, after all, he has delayed too much effort in the affairs of the dart game and the affairs of his friends, and there is really some distance compared to Zhang Yu, who has no distractions............ It is not in vain to die at the hands of such a martial arts master............ Anyway, Brother Xu will not live up to himself, and he is very at ease when he goes. As a little dart master, he really has the face to be compared with his two brothers who stand up to the sky!
At this time, Wang Wu suddenly remembered when he met Xu Yifan before, Xu Yifan hadn't donated to the official at that time, the brothers chatted happily, Xu Yifan gave him a pair of words, on which were the seven big characters of "go to keep the liver and gallbladder two Kunlun", Wang Wu kept it, and never figured out what it meant, and later asked many readers, others said that Xu Dashuai's sentence was too deep, and they didn't have the ability to explain.
Now he suddenly realized that he would spare his liver and gallbladder two Kunlun, doesn't it mean that in his life, he will not hesitate to throw his liver and gall for the sake of these two brothers who stand up to the sky? Needless to say, Brother Xu, the artillery shook Nanyang, and North Korea beat the little devils, and now he must be on his way here............ Although Brother Tan is a little broader, he is a fist with a heart, and it is also for this country and the people of this country.
He gave his life for these two brothers. Manly man, this life is enough!
He smiled and threw away the big knife that had been with him for most of his life. Then he took a deep breath, the tight-breasted coat on his body faintly made the sound of fabric tightening, he shrunk his hips and knees, his ten toes grasped the ground, and his palms were like knives standing on his chest. Walking down the steps, I slowly took a mud step. And Zhang Yu didn't move, just looked at him from afar.
Wang Wu walked faster and faster, and later, it was like a gust of wind.
Zhang Yu did not move at all, but his snort was like a fire, getting thicker and thicker, the palm of the front palm was down, the palm of the back palm was up, and the ten fingers slowly changed into palms like hooks.
The circle of this gossip palm, just like a child holding a rope to tie a stone to throw a circle on the top of the head, the more circles turned, the faster the speed, Wang Wu turned more than ten times, exhaled the sound, a stream of dantian gas spewed out of the nostrils, the body was long, and the strength was obliquely born, and the two palms went straight to Zhang Yu!
Zhang Yu just shook his head, changed to a shelf with slanted shoulders, and faced Wang Wu's palms.
If there is someone who knows how to do it, it should be called. Wang Wu walked so many laps, and Zhang Yu also let him accumulate enough strength to shoot, but he only used the "bear arms" in the most stupid and simple five arms and seven leans in Xingyi Boxing, and he greeted it so hard!
Peng's sound, Wang Wu felt like defeating Ge, no matter what kind of fist he used to split, drill and drill, as long as he was stained with the opponent's body, he could turn his strength into strength, but under this Zhang Yu, he couldn't grasp Zhang Yu's strength at all, and he didn't know where to send his strength!
At this time, Zhang Yu heyed, stomped his foot, and flipped his elbow against Wang Wuqian. Taking advantage of Wang Wu's momentary untidy effort, he had already turned his shelf into a "ryu backrest" among the five arms and seven backs, and slid over with his horizontal elbow against Wang Wu's body, slamming straight into Wang Wu's temple!
His every movement is extremely clear, even if Xu Yifan's waste wood can be seen clearly on the side, but in fact, the real speed is unimaginably fast!
If you don't see it with your own eyes, it only makes people believe that in such a fast time that people can't even think about it, he can open the boxing so widely, and even make people feel that it is not someone else in front of him, every move is like showing slow motion!
God change, the god change realm of Xingyi Fist!
Martial arts everyone duels, and one move will see the winner.
With a muffled pop, Zhang Yu's elbow swiped over the edge of Wang Wu's temple, and he took it away with a slight dip. Then he stepped back. Wang Wu turned around as if he was drunk, and stumbled straight to the door of the Prime Minister's yamen. Before he reached the steps, he knelt down with weak legs, and blood flowed from his nose, mouth, and even the corners of his eyes and ears, and he was red. Then he slowly got up, struggled to the door, stood up, turned around and leaned against the door frame, and then he had no more strength, and his whole body slowly slid down.
From his eyes, the last sight he saw was already blood-red.
Two brothers, the fifth brother has done his best............ I don't know when, the three of us brothers can listen to Brother Tan talk about poetry and papers in the fifth brother's broken dart game again, while Brother Xu is talking nonsense on the side, and the fifth brother is just giggling on the side?
On the fourth night of the third month of the 21st year of Guangxu, Wang Wu, a hero in the capital, died in battle.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Zhangyu and Han Zhongping silently saluted Wang Wuhu's still alive body, and with a few subordinates, they chased out through the prime minister's yamen. When they arrived at the back door, they found that more than 100 of their subordinates had gathered there, but there was no shadow of Tan Sitong.
The crowd was crowded, still crying and screaming, pushing to get away from what they had thought had been a safe haven. I don't know how many people trampled on each other and died! Even Tan Sitong and the hundreds of soldiers who stayed at the end, none of them dared to turn back, the gunshots had already resounded all around, Lord Tan was dead, and the capital was no longer saved!
These two hundred men, all with guns, did not fire at the backs of the people who were crowded and fleeing. Seeing Han Zhongping and Zhang Yu coming out of the courtyard, the person who led the team stepped forward and replied: "............ The villains were ashamed that they didn't find any trace of Tan Sitong, and were about to search in the yamen from behind............"
Han Zhongping waved his hand with a cold face: "It doesn't matter if Tan Sitong's life or death............ We don't have time to search either......... Anyway, he has lost the ability to control the situation and stabilize people's hearts. Let everyone inside and outside the capital believe that he is dead! Even if he lives, he can't go back! ………… Shoot them, drive them again, and let them bring the news of Tan Sitong's death to the entire capital! ”
The gunfire rang out again, and the fleeing crowd left behind the corpses on the ground, and everyone was crazy to rush to the front, so as to get farther away from this Shura field. I don't know who shouted first in the back: "Lord Tan is dead!" The capital is over! ”
Born alone, everyone present who was fleeing for their lives wailed, as if they had to shout out their voices to vent their fears.
"Lord Tan is dead! The capital is over! ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yang Rui at this time, he was still running around with the mixed men and horses under his command, struggling to support the situation. When the fire started, he sent people to extinguish it. The crowd fled and trampled on each other, he channeled the order, and guided everyone to go to the Long Sect if they wanted to avoid it, maybe it would be a little safer. If someone takes advantage of the opportunity to commit chaos and robbery, he will either order it to be taken or simply kill it on the spot.
From the morning to now, he didn't know how many places he had run, how many orders he had ordered, and how many times he had explained to the people that Tan Sitong was not preparing to welcome the Xiangjiao and Xu Yifan into the city. His face was covered in black ash and his voice was completely hoarse. Although he still insisted on running, his lungs were like pulling bellows, and he was wheezing non-stop.
He can't fall, because the resurrection hasn't fallen yet. is still supporting the final situation in the capital!
Dense gunfire suddenly rang out from the Longzong Gate, and Yang Ruizheng commanded his subordinates to carry the dozen or so Xiangjiao disciples who had just been caught and took advantage of the chaos to squat on the side of the street, preparing to send officials to stuff them into the Shuntian Mansion prison.
Everyone was shocked, listening to the gunfire there. Yang Rui was completely stunned for a while, standing there without any thoughts, only one thought kept circling in his mind.
"Resurrection, resurrection............ You can't get an accident! ”
The gunfire was short and intense, and there was also a fire in the Longzong Gate, and the sound of exclamation and crying floated over with the gunshot. Some of the officials and green battalion soldiers around Yang Rui began to take off their bodies, put down the hook bucket in their hands to put out the fire, and quietly slipped away. Beside him, there were dozens of soldiers who Tan Si transferred to him at the same time, but they accompanied Yang Rui there with a pale face, watching and listening blankly.
The fire got bigger and bigger, and the gunshots stopped for a while and rang out again and again, followed by a faint shout: "Lord Tan is dead, the capital is finished!" ”
The voice of this shout changed from small to loud, and it clearly reached Yang Rui's ears.
The little officer with these dozens of soldiers listened silently, and slapped Yang Rui, who had a gloomy face, with a deep punch: "Lord Yang, I'm sorry, Lord Tan has gone, we have to survive by ourselves............ Can't help Lord Yang stabilize the situation in the capital anymore............ Lord Yang, I'm sorry! ”
As he spoke, he silently waved his hand, and dozens of soldiers grabbed foreign guns and ran out after him. Everyone is at a loss, and no one knows where to find a way to live!
Yang Rui stood there dumbfounded, his heart cold: "Resurrection............ You're going? ”
Behind him, the dozen or so incense sect disciples were unrestrained, and when they looked at each other, a figure sprang up, pulled out a small plug from the leg belt, and strangled Yang Rui's neck from behind and slashed hard!
“…… This is our brother's vote! Open the capital, the big guys will eat and drink spicy food from now on, and one person will live in a palace! ”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ here at the Prime Minister's Yamen, Han Zhongping had already sorted out his subordinates, and someone had already handed him a green cloth cloak and served him to put it on.
Zhang Yu stood there with a complicated expression.
"Zhang Da Protector, the matter is over here, let's break up............ You have your vengeance to avenge, and I have mine. ”
Zhang Yu's expression was indifferent, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, and even a deep tiredness, he arched his hand towards Han Zhongping, who was wearing a cloak: "............ Old man, do you really have to ask those scholars for help? Directly into the Summer Palace, it is more simple than anything else. ”
Han Zhongping smiled: "............ I've been counting for thirty years......... Only those scholars can take me to find the Manchurian emperor in the Summer Palace, and to find the old woman Cixi. Only those scholars can lead our people to open the door. The whole city is falling apart, and if the gate soldiers are still guarding there, I don't have so many people to open the nine gates. These scholars, but officials, at this time, the false transmission of the holy decree is more useful than anything else............ Tan Sitong is no longer there! ”
He looked at Zhang Yu again and said softly: "Zhang Da Protector, I'll give you ten more people." Break into the palace alone, they have guns, and you return them. In the end, it's up to you to kill yourself............ You accompany the old man all the way, this love can only be reported in the next life, in case the old man dies, you have to help me collect a corpse. I was buried with my wife and daughter, who had died thirty-one years ago...... I've taken you there, and it's in Suiyuan. ”
Zhang Yu arched his hand: "Old man, don't leave it at that............ If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had a day of revenge in my life. You're going to die, and I'll take revenge on you............ My life is worth nothing. Where it is dead, where it is buried. ”
Han Zhongping laughed, but his eyes were full of old tears, and his face was full of sickly flushing. He lifted his cloak, wrapped it around his head, and hid in the crowd, leaving only ten people around Zhang Yu. There was a sound of footsteps, and their group of men and horses had already stepped over the corpses all over the ground, and they were getting farther and farther away in the firelight.
