Chapter 299: Hunting down the eighth
A section of the Sancha River, bringing together the South Canal and the Ziya River, the second half of April is the season of abundant water, the water flow is turbulent, the boat is in the middle of the stream, down the water, coupled with the hard work of the sailors, the fast boat is extraordinarily fast, most of the people in the capital do not know the water, Yinxi as a prince is no exception, at this time in the night river fast boat, it is inevitable to be nervous, he grabbed the side of the boat tightly with one hand, and his eyes were staring at the team of torches that kept jumping fast on the shore, and the sound of the horse's hooves was particularly amazing in the silent night.
Seeing that the boat was moving very fast, and the torches had fallen behind the sound, Yinren breathed a sigh of relief, and thought nervously, since the prince Yinren and the third Yinzhi had launched a mutiny, holding the ministers and a group of clan relatives and nobles hostage, it also meant that they were desperate, if it fell into the hands of the two of them, the consequences could be imagined, either Liwei or the sacrifice flag.
However, in this case, as the leader of the Eight Parties, he must not escape, this escape, not only years of hard work in vain, but he himself will eventually be unable to escape death, and now only by fighting against the odds can he have a way to live and a chance! Tianjin has a lot of troops, and there are still many soldiers and horses in the lower reaches of the Haihe River searching for Kangxi's whereabouts, and he must rush to the downstream and think of controlling a part of the soldiers and horses in order to compete with the prince and the third child.
I don't know if the old ten contacted Prince Baotai and Shuoyu, Baotai has five thousand cavalry cavalry in his hands, thinking of this, Yinxi felt that this trip to Tianjin, he was more moldy than the old fourteen, Oro Dai was originally the minister of the president of the Xiao cavalry battalion, Prince Jane Yaerjianga, Alinga, all three of them were the ministers of the guard, and as a result, the dead and wounded, and the deposed deposed, none of them came in handy, but let the third Erji pick up a cheap one in vain.
Seeing so many pursuers, Haishan also understood, and threw himself to the ground for the five bodies admired by the eighth elder brother and Ma Qi, so many soldiers and horses pursuing, and cavalry, if their ships went upstream, they would go against the current. Once discovered, there is no way to escape, and the downstream is to sail downstream, looking dangerous, but as long as you can rush through the Sanhui Wharf in Tianjin, there will be a trace of life.
On the shore, Feng Changgui, the commander of the guard battalion, personally led the team. The horses chased wildly, since he took the brothers in the escort camp to the ship of the prince and the third master. There is no way back, but to follow a road to the dark, and it has become, glory and wealth, needless to say. If you lose, you will bring disaster to your family and your people.
Feng Changgui knows very well that the Eighth Master Party is strong, as long as he can catch or kill the Eighth Elder Brother Yinxi, the accession of the Third Master and the Crown Prince to the throne is a foregone conclusion, which is a great achievement! Besides, Prince Yinren has already spoken. No matter what, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death!
Although there are torches, the place that can be illuminated is only a square foot. The speed of the war horse did not dare to be too fast, Feng Changgui was also very anxious in his heart, the eighth elder brother did not flee upstream, but went straight downstream, his meaning was self-evident, he galloped on the horse, and shouted loudly: "The prince has an order, whether he lives or dies." Those who catch the eighth elder brother will be promoted to the rank of knight. 10,000 silver reward! ”
Hearing such a generous reward, all the soldiers hurried up. In order to grab the first credit!
The fast boat in the river, the galloping horse on the shore, chased and fled, and in an instant it had arrived at the Sanhui Wharf, the horse team was a step slower after all, Feng Changgui stopped at the horse for a while, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Divide into two teams, one team continues to pursue along the coast, and one team looks for a boat to chase from the waterway!" Prepare more bows and arrows! ”
Seeing the wharf, the eighth elder brother Yinxi felt very relaxed, and immediately distributed silver tickets to encourage the sailors, but Haishan's expression was not relaxed at all, looking at the cavalry on the shore, hesitated, and then hesitated and said: "Eighth master, they are still in hot pursuit, and ten miles ahead, there is a big river bay, at that time, it will definitely be caught up, and I hope that the eighth master will take the idea as soon as possible." ”
When Yinxi heard this, his face sank, but Ma Qi smiled and said: "It's okay, these war horses are frightened during the day, and they are going back and forth to search for the emperor, but they rest for a few hours, and they are running at night, and the horsepower is exhausted, so galloping, let alone ten miles, and then five miles will be weak, so there is no need to worry." ”…,
At the mouth of the Sancha River, the camp of the sailors, I heard that the eighth elder brother Yinren fled downstream by boat, the prince Yinren, the third Yinzhi, and the three of them were silent, it seems that the eighth wanted to go downstream to encourage the soldiers to resist them, Yinzhi and Qiuerji were worried, but Yinren frowned slightly and looked at Qiuerji, and asked: "During the day, didn't the old nine, the fifteenth, and the sixteenth follow you?" ”
Qiu Erji replied with a wry smile: "The three elder brothers, the slaves can be detained, and after walking a short distance along the river, the three of them grabbed the horses and searched along the river, how dare the slaves stop them?" ”
Yinren sat down with a gloomy expression, fifteen or sixteen, he is not worried, he has no foundation in the army, it is difficult to say the old ten, God knows if there is anyone in the old Bayi Party in the Praetorian Guard? He couldn't help meditating on the backbone of the eighth in the clan, Alinga was dead, Yarjianga was seriously injured, Bumuba and Manduhu were with the eighth child, and he groaned for a while before he said: "Someone brought Baotai, Sunu, and Jingxi over." ”
When Yu Erji heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Prince Yu Baotai led five thousand cavalry battalion cavalry to take over the supervision of the Spanish prisoners, and he is not here. ”
5,000 cavalry battalion cavalry! Yinren's heart sank, no need to ask, Lao Shi must have gone to Baotai, and was frightened, his escort Kunna hurriedly walked in, and reported: "Lord Yu, the escort Tashan, who went to investigate the movement of the navy, has returned." ”
"Call him in." Yinren immediately commanded, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and he came at the right time.
After Tashan came in to greet him, he glanced at the third elder brother, and Yinren smiled: "Just say it." ”
"Yes." Ta San replied before he said: "After receiving the eight small warships that were moored in the port of the sea, there was a burst of cheers when they boarded, and then they all went out and entered the Bohai Sea, but they did not gallop away, but were far away in the sea and no longer moved. ”
Cheers? Yinzhi was shocked, didn't the old fourteen die? What about Kangxi?
"Huang Ama didn't die." Yinren already said in a deep voice.
"Why is the second brother so sure?" Yinzhi asked in surprise.
"Since the navy is cheering, at least it means that the old fourteen is safe and sound." Yinren glanced at the guard Tashan, and said slowly: "Huang Ama and Lao Fourteen fell into the river together, the two should not be far away, the navy can save Lao Fourteen, there is no reason not to see Huang Ama, and Huang Ama has not been able to find Huang Ama , which means that Huang Ama has been rescued by the navy."
Also, why did the Navy move the warship into the sea? This is to prevent being attacked by us, and since the old fourteenth is safe and sound, why should the navy be so careful? This is enough to show that Huang Ama is among the naval warships, and he is still alive! ”
Yinzhi and Qiuerji panicked when they landed, Kangxi was still alive! There is no need to ascend to the heights at all, as soon as they show up, these soldiers are afraid that they will immediately defect, so what will be the fate waiting for them? Inciting mutiny, holding the ministers hostage, imprisoning the clan, chasing and killing brothers, any one is enough to make him fall into the trap, and the end of the captivity is even worse, and it is possible to exterminate the clan.
Both of them stared at Yinren with pale faces, with unspeakable resentment in their hearts, but Yinren smiled and said calmly: "Yuerji, you have no choice, even if you stop now, you will not be able to escape the disaster of the death clan, and the third brother has a chance to get out." ”
Hearing that there was a chance to get out, Yinzhi asked a little nervously, "How to get out?" ”
Yinren said in a sincere tone: "Third brother, among all the brothers, you are the only one who walks with me the closest, no matter whether there is such a change, I am in a catastrophe, third brother, rest assured, I will bear this matter with all my might, and it will not affect you." ”
As soon as he heard this, Yinzhi was greatly moved, calmed down slightly, and then he said: "Thank you, second brother, but, this mutiny, I am in front of everything, and there are many soldiers and generals who know, how can I get out of the matter?" The second brother has this distraction, and the third brother is grateful. "...," the third brother reassured. Yinren stood up and said with a cruel smile: "All the generals, ministers, and clan relatives who know the truth will not have a chance to speak." It's Hongchen them, so I asked the third brother. ”
Yinzhi didn't expect the prince to be so righteous, so he immediately bowed down and said, "Second brother don't worry, the third brother will do his best to take care of it." ”
Qi Erji had calmed down at this time, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, and he faintly felt that the third master was not a person who could achieve great things, but the prince was decisive in killing and killing, and his methods were old and spicy, and it was somewhat possible to win in this chaos.
Yinren nodded slightly, and said to Erji: "You first help the third brother find a secluded place in the camp of the sailor, stay for one night, and tomorrow, there will be accurate news." ”
Hearing this, Yinzhi and Qiuerji had no objections, and as soon as they arched their hands, they turned around and left, and when they went out of the door, Yinzhi said softly: "How credible is this matter?" ”
Qiu Erji said in a deep voice: "I will know early tomorrow morning that the third master will temporarily avoid it, which is a foolproof strategy. ”
Inside the house, Yinren was proud, glanced at Tashan, and secretly said that this kid would make up, and said with a smile: "What is the specific situation?" ”
Tashan bowed down and said, "Back to the prince, the navy is indeed anchored in the Bohai Sea, a little far from the shore. ”
Kindness? Yinren looked stunned and restrained his smile, he was just scaring the third child before, so as to seize the military power, but what Tashan said was true, could it be that Kangxi was really not dead? Then the situation is not optimistic, and it is not right, if Kangxi is not dead, why would he stay on the naval warship? Could it be that Lao Fourteen held Kangxi hostage?
The more Yinren thinks about it, the more he feels that this possibility is very high, this kind of rare opportunity, will the old fourteen miss it? If so, the situation would be really complicated.
After arranging the third elder brother, he immediately hurried back, and after entering the house, he asked, "Prince, is the emperor really still there?" ”
This is an interesting question, Yinren smiled slightly, this Erji seems to be a smart person, he knows how to make trade-offs, so it is better, he saved his lips and tongue, nodded slightly, and then he replied: "The emperor is definitely still there, but whether it is okay or not, it is difficult to say, it may be sick, or it may be held hostage by the old fourteen." ”
