The sound of horses' hooves approached little by little, and the momentum of the earth shaking the mountains made many people change color, but at this moment, the galloping horses fell in rows, only to dumbfounded the people under the city of Qi'an. At this moment, a voice sounded: "Suo Po manifests, kill!" Amidst the shouts, several detachments of men and horses rushed out, brandishing cold long knives and slaughtering the cavalry camp and hussar camp, and the lives of the reapers were dropped with swords in hand.

Seeing this incredible scene, all the soldiers of Huainan Dao were full of shock, and they didn't understand how the iron hooves that were still menacing just now fell down in an instant, but Wei Jiangtao's eyes showed a touch of pride, but his face was cold, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Waste, summon Huang Wei, can't take Qi'an Mansion, come and see it." ”

After receiving the military order, Huang Wei showed a strange look on his face, and shouted: "Kill!" In the midst of the loud cheers, Huang Wei rushed into the enemy camp first, with a long red tassel gun, and the gun cost people's lives.

With the pressure of 1,500 Chinese troops, the people of Qi'an immediately became chaotic, and many people even retreated, but when they retreated to the point where there was no way back, they could only pick up their swords and fight desperately with the imperial army.

It should be because the blood has aroused blood, or for other reasons, Huang Wei showed a cruel smile on his face, and suddenly waved his spear to cut off a general on his side, and at the same time shouted: "Suo Po manifests, kill!" ”

Watching Huang Wei kill his comrades, and listening to his incredible shouts, a general who had been with Huang Wei for many years was dumbfounded, stared at Huang Wei and asked: "Commander Huang, what are you ......?"

At this moment, Huang Wei no longer concealed it, and sneered: "Huang's family was killed by Da Chu, Brother Chen, why do you say this?" So, don't blame the brothers. At the end of the words, Huang Wei used a strong arm and picked him out with a shot, and at the same time swung his spear to kill his comrades.

Seeing that the Chinese army was also in chaos, Wei Jiangtao's face turned pale, and he shouted at the only five hundred men and horses left on his side: "What do you see? Huang Wei rebelled and killed. In the midst of the shouting, Wei Jiangtao jumped out with his horse's belly in his arms, but he rushed to the back of the Chinese army and slashed at his comrades with a big knife.

After all, Wei Jiangtao is the chief general of the first army, so even if many people don't know why, they still raise their swords at their comrades, not to mention, most of these five hundred people are Wei Jiangtao's personal soldiers.

Huang Wei's sudden defection, coupled with the fact that he was slashed by his comrades in the back of the abdomen, made the Chinese army completely chaotic, and at this moment, no one knew who the enemy was and could only believe in himself, and many soldiers were killed by his own people.

Standing on the city tower and looking at the chaos below, the bearded man couldn't help but laugh, looking so cruel, he shouted in a deep voice: "Command the evil ghosts, attack." ”

In the loud shouts of the bearded man, a soldier beside him immediately waved the flag in his hand, and it didn't take long for a group of cavalry to gallop in the distance, even if it was far away, the cold glow of the cold sword in the sun still made people feel a chill.

The iron hooves are getting closer and closer, and the deafening sound of horses' hooves rolls up the earth-shaking momentum, which makes people can't help but turn their heads to look. The black iron armor and black mask are like the evil ghosts of hell suddenly appearing in the world, and the cold makes people worry.

Soon, the black torrent rushed into the crowd and slashed at the Huainan Dao soldiers with a long knife. At this moment, the Huainan Dao army was in chaos, and it was powerless to resist this black torrent, and many soldiers died tragically under the iron hooves. The defeat was like a mountain, and finally some people chose to flee, just like the spread of the plague, many soldiers took off their armor and began to flee for their lives. In this battle, only a few hundred of the 3,000 soldiers of Dachu fled, shocking the world.

In the capital, in the evening, although the sky was dark, but with the lighting of a lamp, this thousand-year-old imperial capital not only did not go away but became more and more lively, and then at this moment, two fast horses galloped over, shouting: "Huainan Emergency, Huainan Emergency!" ”

In the piercing shouts, pedestrians on the street avoided one after another, this is an emergency military situation, if anyone collides, it is a big crime, and they will go to prison, even if some powerful people are children of official families, they dare not touch this moldy head, but one by one it seems that the news is psychic and says what happened in Huainan.

The stagecoach stopped at the Forbidden City at the end of Chang'an Avenue and shouted at the general on duty: "Huainan people change, the Seventh Prince is sent urgently, and he must convey the saint immediately." ”

Hearing about the Huainan Civil Revolution and the Seven Princes, the general on duty did not dare to slack off, and after a hurried inspection, he brought the post guard into the Forbidden City, and soon, a handscroll was sent to the desk of the saint.

The Holy Chu Haoran was eating, and after reading the emergency report, his face turned blue, and he waved his hand to overturn the food on the table, and the eunuchs and maids who had never seen the Holy Shang so angry immediately knelt down, and one by one they prostrated on the ground and did not dare to make any sound, and there was a dead silence in the hall, only the sound of the Holy Chu Haoran's rapid breathing.

In the deathly silence, the Holy Lord Chu Haoran finally opened his mouth and shouted in a deep voice: "Fang Lin, the secretary of the Ministry of Transmission, Wei Dian of the Zhongshu Order, the Hou Zhibai of the Door, and the Zhongshu Servant Chen Baihan, enter the palace immediately." At the end of the words, Chu Haoran walked away, his heavy steps were like the anger in his heart.

The emperor is in a hurry, who dares to delay? Soon, Fang Lin and Wei Dian rushed to the imperial study, and everyone knew that the saint was angry, and their faces were solemn.

Seeing that Fang Lin and the four of them had arrived, Xiao Yongzi, who had been serving the saint for many years, instructed everyone: "My lords, the people of Huainan have changed, the seventh prince has sent an excerpt urgently, the saint is on fire, don't anger the saint again." Seeing that the four of them nodded, Xiao Yongzi nodded and walked into the imperial study lightly, knelt down and said, "Qiqi Sheng, all the ministers are waiting outside the imperial study." ”

After a moment, Chu Haoran had regained his composure, and shouted in a deep voice: "Pass." ”

"Wow!" In response, Xiao Yongzi bowed down and retreated, leading Wei Dian and the ministers in. Walking into the imperial study, Wei Dian and the four of them immediately knelt down and said: "Long live your majesty, long live, long live, long live!" ”

Glancing at everyone, Chu Haoran sighed softly: "Calm down, oh, this is the excerpt that Xiao Qi just sent back urgently, everyone take a look." ”

Seeing that the saint Chu Haoran raised his palm, Xiao Yongzi hurriedly took the fold and carefully handed it to Wei Dian. After the four of them finished reading it in turn, the Holy Lord Chu Haoran opened his mouth and said, "All the secretaries are the pillars of the country, what do you think?" ”

These four people are indeed the pillars of a high-powered country. Wei Dian is in charge of Zhongshu Province, Zhongshu Province is adhering to the will of the monarch, in charge of secrets, issuing government decrees, can be said to be the center of government affairs, and Chen Baihan is not only the second person in Zhongshu Province, but also the head of the Chen family, the four great families, which is not illustrious. Menxia Province and Zhongshu Province are in charge of discussing national affairs together, and are responsible for reviewing edicts, signing seals, and having the right to refute them, and Hou Zhibai's control of Menxia Province is also the top priority. As for the military department, he controls millions of troops in Dachu, and Fang Lin's family background is extraordinary, his military achievements are prominent, and he has a good relationship with the saints.

Facing the Holy Lord Chu Haoran, Fang Lin, the secretary of the Ministry of War, opened his mouth first, and said slowly: "Qi Qi Sheng, Weichen thinks that Qi Anmin is not enough to fear. ”

Suddenly, everyone turned their eyes on Fang Lin, thinking about the meaning of his words, and the Holy Lord Chu Haoran even opened his mouth and said, "Fang Qing, what do you say?" ”

Fang Lin obviously had already made a decision, and immediately replied: "Back to the Holy Lord, since the civil rebellion in Muar County, Qi'an, Wei Chen has carefully understood that although Qi'an is located in a rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, it is only a medium-sized county with a population of less than one million, and the Qi'an Mansion is only tens of thousands of people, and only five hundred people are stationed at one outpost, and this should be the reason why the Heavenly Thorn Rebel can occupy Qi'an Mansion so easily." ”

Hearing the Heavenly Thorn Rebel, Wei Dian, Chen Baihan and Hou Zhibai all had different colors flashing in their eyes, they were all important ministers of the imperial court, so they naturally knew about this group of remnants of the previous dynasty, but the Heavenly Thorn, like the Chu family Tianwei, was a taboo among the courtiers, and no one wanted to talk about it. At this moment, Fang Lin continued: "It's easy to gain, but it's easy to lose? If the Taiping people live and work in peace and contentment today, who wants to become a chaotic minister and thief to live a life of licking blood on the sword? Therefore, as long as the army is suppressed, the Qi Anmin Revolution will definitely disappear. Now, the Seventh Prince's own leader of the Pengcheng battalion of 3,000 soldiers rushed to Qi'an, and the Seventh Prince has ordered the Divine Captain to send troops, and the elite of the Divine Captain, you can't be clearer. With commanders like the Seven Princes, and an army of divine captains, why worry about Qi An's instability, so Wei Chen thought that Qi Anmin's change was unhindered, but it was just the deep meaning of the heavenly thorn traitor, which was worthy of our in-depth study. ”

With a soft sound, the Holy Lord Chu Haoran opened his mouth and said, "Fang Qing will speak bluntly if he has something to say. ”

At this moment, Fang Lin's face was no longer elegant at the beginning, and he said with a solemn face: "Shengshang, the world has been stable for nearly thirty years, and my Dachu is thriving under the leadership of the first emperor and the saint, and now it can be said that the people of Guotai and the people live and work in peace and contentment, but the Tianthorn rebel thief knows that he can't do anything but wants to act with great fanfare. ”

Several people here are all important ministers of the imperial court, although no one said it explicitly, they all know that the seventh prince's trip is related to the Qian family in Huizhou, and Fang Lin continued: "The seventh prince went to Jiangnan to rectify the rule of Jiangnan officials, and it also has a lot to do with the Qian family, and the heavenly thorn rebel thief just launched a civil rebellion at this moment to lead the seventh prince to Huainan, this matter is worth debasing." After a pause at this, Fang Lin said coldly: "If the Heavenly Thorn Traitor controls the Qian family, with the wealth of the Qian family and the business network all over the world, I am afraid that it will be a big trouble." ”

Suddenly, Wei Dian, Chen Baihan, and Hou Zhibai's faces all turned cold, they couldn't know more clearly that the consequences of the Qian family being controlled by the Heavenly Thorn Traitor were not comparable to a Qi'an County at all. At this moment, Hou Zhibai, the servant of the door, also opened his mouth and said: "Holy Lord, Weichen thinks that Fang Shangshu is very worried, and Qi Anmin is not worried, but the Qian family must not be allowed to fall under the control of the Heavenly Thorn traitor, and the Seventh Prince is in charge of the Tianwei, so he needs to rush to the Qian family in Huizhou as soon as possible." ”

Seeing the saint open his mouth, Wei Dian thought for a moment and opened his mouth and said: "Saint, the Qian family is one of the four great families of my dynasty, and now the old man Qian is critically ill, and the old minister thinks that he should send important ministers to visit and show his holy grace." ”

Although the Qian family is one of the four great families of Great Chu, it is only that after the current saint ascended the throne, the relationship has not been very good, and the old man Qian has been ill for a long time, so naturally no one dares to mention it, but now it has reached the point where it is impossible not to go, and someone must bring it up.

Looking at the Holy Lord Chu Haoran, Chen Baihan bowed down and said, "Holy Lord, the old minister is not talented, and he is willing to go to Huizhou to visit Old Man Qian." ”

The Chen family and the Qian family are both four major families, and Chen Baihan is an important minister of the imperial court, so he seems to be the most suitable candidate. After a moment of silence, Chu Haoran said in a deep voice: "Quasi-play, Chen Qing will go to Huizhou on behalf of me, and be accompanied by Master Li, the secretary of the household department." ”

Li Tiannian, the head of the household, is the son-in-law of the old man Qian, and his companionship is naturally to appease the Qian family, and at the same time to ask the Qian family to be loyal to the imperial court. Not daring to hesitate, Chen Baihan immediately bowed: "The old minister has the order." ”

Nodding lightly, Chu Haoran said again: "Wei Qing, the two provinces of Jiangnan and Huainan, and the army of Shenji Lieutenant, all obey the dispatch of King Xiao, and rush to Huizhou immediately after quelling the Qi'an rebellion, there must be no mistake." In addition, Li Huairen, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials, temporarily acted as the governor of Huainan Province and commanded everything in Huainan Province. ”
