Chapter 154: Rebellion (Part II)

PS: Ask for subscription, ask for reward!

On the dark Suzaku Avenue in the dark night, two thousand soldiers wearing various armors lowered their footsteps and galloped in the direction of the palace. There was not a word in the ranks, only heavy panting.

The first one was a school captain, Han Mingfei. His face seemed calm, but in fact, his heart was already boiling. As a person who was deeply favored by Zongzheng Han Xin, he knew very well what an earth-shattering thing he was about to do. He didn't want to participate in it, so Han Xin had the grace to live for his family of five. Back then, if it weren't for Zongzheng Han Xin to take in his family, the famine would have taken the lives of his entire family. Therefore, he can only repay and repay his benefactor in the way of serving Han Xin in this life.

Loyalty and filial piety have been difficult since ancient times, whether it is to choose to be loyal to Han Xin or Han Wangran, this is a difficult decision. Han Fei chose to return the favor, but he also decided that once he captured the palace and controlled Xinzheng, he would apologize with death. Han Wangran is a good king, but he can only pursue it after he dies.

The plan of the "rebels" tonight was very simple, they would take these two thousand men and horses to capture the palace, control the ministers, and the other two captains would be responsible for taking the outer city. For the palace, Han Fei is bound to win. You must know that most of the forbidden army is not responsible for night guards, and there are hundreds of forbidden army guards on the head of the palace city. According to their own strength, they can easily crush these forbidden armies. As for Han Wangran's side, there are other "rebels" to deal with!

"Kill!" Seeing that he had sneaked to a distance of less than a hundred steps from the palace, Han Fei took the lead and rushed towards the "defenseless" forbidden army.

The forbidden army was immediately in chaos, and soon began to slowly retreat because they could not resist. Li Mu, who led the army, touched the number of "rebels" and showed a sarcastic smile.

"Pass my orders, and the whole army will attack!"

Just as the rebels were victorious. When he thought he was winning, a sudden change occurred! The rebels could not have imagined that the forbidden army, which had fled from the wolf, actually killed them under the huge pressure of their own side, and countless "reinforcements" surged behind them and on both sides. When I looked back, the city gate was actually closed, and the back road was broken.

Han Fei's face immediately turned pale. According to the intelligence, there are only 1,000 palace guards, why does it seem to be more than five or six thousand now?! Finished! You must have been ambushed! Han Fei didn't think that the extra four or five thousand for no reason would be to watch the lively common people!

"You must rush out, and you must quickly report this situation to Lord Zongzheng Han Xin! It's too late! In the next second, Han Fei realized the urgency and importance of this situation.

However, the well-trained Li Mu army was so hospitable, and Han Fei's army was so gracious, how could it be so easy to walk away!

The big camp in Xinzheng City, the Chinese military tent.

Xin Zhengwei, who said that he was not sick, had been ignoring the affairs of the camp for several days, except for the issue of soldiers' salaries and silver. Other times, it is his "confidant" Du Yi who is solely responsible. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Xinchengwei is getting older and older, and this position will have to be taken by a young man like Du Yi sooner or later.

At three o'clock in the ugly hour, the sky is the most gloomy. Because the large camp was stationed in the southwest corner, the sound of fighting was not heard from the royal palace in the central area. All the soldiers have been put to bed, and they are not allowed to go out without the sound of the drums for emergency assembly, which is also the latest request of Du Yi, who is acting as the new Zheng Wei.

Nobody knows. Du Yi has already taken refuge in Zongzheng Han Xin. There wasn't much he needed to do for tonight's rebellion, and that was to order his men to stay in the camp until dawn. Like the hard work of seizing the palace and the city gates. Du Yi doesn't need to do it. Sit and watch the success or failure, and wait for the rebels to control the whole city at dawn, and he can sit and receive the credit. In return, he is indispensable to the real power of Qianshi's high-ranking officials.

"Presumably, at this time, Han Zongzheng's subordinates are storming the city gate and the palace!" Du Yi, who had never slept all the time, secretly speculated. From time to time, there were faint cries of killing outside, proving that the king's men and horses were very resolute in resisting.

Just now, the guards of the west gate and the south gate sent people to ask for help. Unfortunately, they had found the wrong person, and the messenger with a happy front foot was shot in the tent by his own order. His "robe" is indeed being attacked by the "rebels", but what does this have to do with himself! Don't blame me for being unfaithful, but the price they give is too high and too high. You are standing on the opposite side of the nobles again, and everyone in the country can be killed, so you can only accept this cruel reality.

It's just that what Du Yi didn't expect was that the rumbling drums of the gathering generals suddenly sounded, which made Du Yi shocked. Without their own orders, the drums would not have sounded unless the battalion was attacked by the "rebels". Could it be that the "rebels" have repented and want to uproot themselves? Du Yi guessed distraughtly.

"Let's go! Go to the military tent in China! Du Yi, who was leading people to inspect the camp, decisively chose to go to the Chinese military tent to take a look!

Although Du Yi's speed was fast enough, when Du Yi came to the Chinese military tent, there were already a few generals gathered in the tent. After all, these generals are very close to the Chinese military tent.

As soon as he entered the big tent, Du Yi saw that in the position that "belonged" to him, there was an old general who was over sixty years old - Sima De. Du Yi was suddenly shocked in his heart, the first was that he was worried that his affairs would be exposed, and the second was that he was worried that Sima De would hear the killing cry, and he would take over the command and quell the rebellion.

Before Du Yi could open his mouth, the old and strong Sima De's loud voice rang out: "Someone! Take down the rebellious thief Du Yi and his henchmen for me! ”

At the sound of an order, more than a dozen big men quickly poured in outside the tent, pressing Du Yi and the five henchmen he brought to the ground, and their movements were done in one go, without giving Du Yi and his group time to react at all.

Du Yi immediately shouted injustice, intending to get through the customs in confusion: "Humble and wronged!" ”

Sima De snorted coldly and said in disgust: "Do you think I don't know about the dirty things between you and Han Xin's gang? I thought you were a pillar of the country, but I didn't expect you to be a despicable villain who betrayed the country and the king for profit! I saw all the things you shot and killed the messenger for help just now! No more quibbling! ”

"Someone! Pull this gang of thieves out and behead them! ”

"Whoa!" More than a dozen strong men immediately dragged the miserable Du Yi and his group out.

Soon, everyone in the tent smelled the stench of feces and urine, and heard the screams that stopped abruptly. The knife and axe hand brought in the plate containing the bloody human head, knelt down on one knee, and said: "The criminal has been tortured and punished, please take a look at it!" ”

Sima De waved his hand without hesitation. said casually: "Spread the head all over the army to set an example!" ”

"Whoa!"

After the knife and axe hand retreated, Sima De got up and said with a stern face: "Zongzheng Han Xin, Sikou Han Xiu, Sikong Jiying, Taichang Gongsun Shi, General Zuo Shaofu Han Wen, and Sinong Li Gaofeng raised private soldiers, and committed rebellion, I received the king's secret decree and asked to quell the rebellion." If there is disobedience, it will not be forgiven! This matter is a matter of great importance, so please take a look at the royal decree in my hand to dispel any confusion in your heart. ”

Everyone was terrified when they heard it, why all of a sudden, the nobles of Korea were going to rebel! This news is amazing! Rebellion is a felony of stealing a family and exterminating the family!

Doubts were doubts, but the people still mustered up the courage to see the king's will. After verifying the truth of the king's decree, everyone had to accept this reality and respectfully said: "But by the general's drive!" ”

Sima De nodded in satisfaction. His tone changed, and he said decisively: "Now that Xinzheng City is in turmoil, the number of rebels is not less than 5,000, and there are 5,000 troops guarding the palace by General Li Mu, so there is no need to worry, my task and other 10,000 troops is to guard the city gate, and exterminate the rebels street by street, the speed must be fast!" The congregation will obey the order! ”

"The last general!"

"Yellow Label! Tu Chuan! Chen Shui! Chen Cai! Each of the four of you shall bring a thousand men and horses. Divide troops to support the four gates of the southeast, north, and west. ”

"Order!"

"Chen Yu! Wang Hua! You two led 3,000 troops to patrol the city, but they were met by rebels. No mercy! ”

"Order!"

"The rest of you, follow me around the rebel leader's mansion! But in the event of resistance, there is no forgiveness for killing! ”

"Order!"

"Good! Here I emphasize military discipline, fear the enemy not the former, kill! Rape and captive, kill! Those who delay the fighters. Kill! If the soldiers kill the enemy at least 50 or kill a rebel captain, they will be awarded the title of lieutenant of the country, and they will be rewarded with 40 acres of land, and they will never be taxed! ”

"Whoa!" The crowd shouted.

Xinzheng, West Gate.

Wei Yazi looked at the surging rebels. Once again, he greeted him fiercely. The halberd and the sword collided fiercely, and at the moment of impact, Wei Yazi lowered his head slyly. The rebels thought that Wei Yazi had no strength and was about to kill Wei Yazi, but a sharp crossbow arrow pierced his heart.

"What's long, left!" A South Korean soldier shouted.

Before he had time to turn around, Wei Yazi slammed the shield in his hand to the left with a feeling. If the other party is chopping, then most of his life will be explained here; If the opponent is stabbing, then you can block it. Fortunately, Wei Yazi made the right bet. The rebels who made the spear were determined to strike a blow that was blocked by Wei Yazi with a small and sturdy shield. Taking advantage of the momentum of the forward rush, Wei Yazi swung his long sword and cut off one of the rebels' arms! The rebels immediately gave up their weapons in pain, clutched their severed hands and yelled. Maybe he forgot that he was on the battlefield, and such a shout didn't help at all, and the next second, a crossbow bolt ended his pain.

"Stand back!" Wei Yazi gritted his teeth and yelled.

The number of rebels was so great that the soldiers sent to report the news were gone, and at the moment, the Korean army had less than a hundred men at the head of the city. Although Wei Yazi is only a chief, he also knows very well that if there are no more reinforcements, his own army will be wiped out in a quarter of an hour at most!

One of the highest-ranking centurions stood at the top and shouted: "Brothers, don't you complain that there is no opportunity to make meritorious service on weekdays? Now's your chance! Kill one enough! Kill two and earn one! Reinforcements are coming! Hold on! ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! The Han army at the head of the city shouted arbitrarily.

One of the lieutenants in charge of the siege just smiled coldly, the other party was just dying, and there would be no reinforcements to support the Korean army at the head of the city tonight.

"Kill me! Kill one and get two big bucks! Brothers, getting promoted and getting rich is today! ”

As soon as the rebels heard this, they immediately rushed to the head of the city. Everyone knows that after tonight, Xinzheng's sky will change. These people will become heroes, and there is no hope of getting promoted and getting rich, and it is still very possible to get dozens of acres of land to live.

The battle situation has fallen into a stalemate again, and in this small city, both sides kill me and cut me, fighting to the death for every inch of land. No one retreats, and retreats and dies. Just when the Korean army was becoming more and more desperate and the rebels were becoming more and more proud, a fire dragon composed of countless torches rushed to the city.

Chen Shui looked at the retreating friendly troops and shouted angrily: "Kill this group of rebels for me!" Not a single one to stay! ”

"Kill!" The only remaining Korean soldier shouted excitedly.

On the contrary, the rebels, who thought they were in danger of victory, began to retreat one after another. Such scenes are constantly staged at the East Gate, South Gate, and North Gate.

Zongzheng Mansion, Han Xin, like other ministers who participated in the rebellion, looked at the sky-rushing fire, and his face was cloudy. Success or failure in one move, according to strength, his side is a sure winner, but for some reason, there is always an uneasy feeling in my heart. Maybe it's a rebellion, and it's always morally untenable. After all, Han Wangran is not thin on himself, and he has always been courteous. But power is like this, either you die or I die, there is no third choice. As Han Xin, who has always been modest, how could he keep the generous gift of death to himself!

"Lord Zongzheng, it's been an hour, why hasn't Han Fei sent someone to report the news?" Sikong Jiying asked.

Of all, he was the most uneasy. He walked back and forth for the past hour, and he couldn't stop. Everyone is not like this, but the decision has been made, and it is too late to regret it.

"Ji Sikong, don't worry, Han Fei was raised by me since I was a child, and he is like father and son, he will not betray me. Xu is Li Mu's resistance is too strong, and now he should be clearing the remnants! Han Xin comforted.

Just when the tension in everyone's hearts eased slightly, the housekeeper of Zongzheng Mansion hurriedly said: "Master, something is wrong!" Sima De led someone to kill him! ”

Before the words fell, a raging fire broke out in Sikong and Sinong Mansions not far away, which virtually proved that what the housekeeper said was true!

"What? How so! Zong Zheng Han Xin shouted in disbelief. Si Kou Han Xiu, Sikong Ji Ying, Taichang Gongsun Shi, General Shaofu Han Wen, and Si Nong Li Gao were also dumbfounded.

Isn't Sima De terminally ill and recuperating at home? How could he suddenly jump out and go against his side! What about Du Yi? Since Du Yi failed to stop Sima De, does it mean that Sima De had long expected that Du Yi was his own gang, and if he pushed it again, did Han Wangran already know that his group of people was going to rebel? Can Han Fei, who went to attack the palace, still have a good end?!

The housekeeper looked behind him and said anxiously, "Master! Let's go! If you don't leave, it's too late! It's clear! This is all a trap set by Han Ran! What a trap! (To be continued......)
