"Zhang Dugong. If you hesitate any longer, you'll be left with a dead end. In the East Investigation Factory, looking at Zhang Whale walking around like ants in a hot pot, Long Xiang urged again: "Whether Wanli is really awake or fake awake." After Zheng Guobao entered the palace, there was no news that he was beheaded or handed over to the Three Law Divisions. The Queen Mother, on her side, also ignored you, and she didn't let you go. The security of the inner palace has been strengthened, and it is clear that they are going to do it. What's the use of you still calculating here? In my opinion, the first to strike is stronger, and the last to strike. As long as we enter the Forbidden City and force Wanli to write an edict of abdication, we will all be saved, otherwise we will wait to die. ”

Since returning from Uncle Guo's mansion, Zhang Whale has been pacing back and forth, restless like a beast trapped in a cage. He had already understood that he had just made a bad move. If you follow Luo Sigong into the palace and cry bitterly in front of Long Live it, it's a big deal, that is, it will be sent to Nanjing to grow vegetables for a lifetime, and it will not be pulled out and cut. If Tianjia doesn't wake up, unless Zheng Niangniang wants to completely scratch her face, everyone can sit down and talk, and take a step back from each other, and there may not be no solution. If the Heavenly Family really wakes up, they will also decide that they are not complying with the decree and are bent on rebellion, whether they can save their lives or not, they are all talking about it.

The queen mother's attitude towards herself has changed dramatically, which also makes Zhang Whale's heart tremble, and she always feels that this is a very bad omen. The eunuch who went to Weihui Mansion to secretly contact King Lu was like a mud cow entering the sea and never returned. Just now, a few pathfinders finally fled back to report that the surrounding area of Luwang's Mansion was already full of soldiers. There are two battalions of new troops from Weihui Mansion. There is also a Zhongzi battalion of Luoyang Golden Knife Gate. There are also many unidentified people in the rivers and lakes, and they also surround it tightly, and their own people are finally clever, so they didn't get in. At the same time, there are still signs of the activities of several mysterious armed forces in Henan, who originally wanted to transfer the Songshan Zuo family into Beijing, but as a result, Zuo Lengchan and the twelve Taibao and the twenty-eight residences under the door were all killed. They lined up one by one and hung them on the left door with a spear. I heard that the Zuo family is now busy with funerals, and the people in the battalion are disheartened. Morale is low. It's already unusable. On the female side, it is a long way to go, and secondly, the combat strength of the border army has increased greatly in recent years, and the female straight has fought with the border army ten times and lost nine times. It's not realistic to want them to come in and help.

Zhang Whale wanted to use the strength at hand to resist stubbornly. I also want to ask the Son of Heaven for my sin. Begging to be spared death. In a dilemma, he couldn't decide which path was the right choice. In the end, he just sat there and sighed, and did nothing. rolled his eyes angrily, but he couldn't make the decision for Zhang Whale.

"Dragon horse, you don't understand, it's not as simple as you think. We have a group of people in our hands, but among these people, there are not many people in charge. The capital we have on hand is too small. Not counting the three major battalions in Jingshi, there are tens of thousands of Jinyi guards alone. There are also the families and tenants of the noble houses. Counting these people, what are we going to fight? ”

Long Xiang was not convinced, "There are many of these people, but they can't be mobilized at all for a while." As long as we strike first and take the Forbidden City directly, it is equivalent to taking the head of the enemy's commander in the army of ten thousand horses. Even if there are many soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty, it is useless. At that time, as long as you get the edict in hand, are you afraid that you won't be able to stabilize the situation? Isn't it in vain that you're wasting time here? ”

"My Dongchang is a big place and has enough armaments. There are also high walls and thick walls, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the official army really comes to attack, relying on this high wall, it can resist for a while. As long as...... As long as the Heavenly Family remembers my past benefits, or the Queen Mother can figure it out, without me, no one will be able to balance the Zheng family brothers and sisters, and perhaps, there will still be a glimmer of life. Otherwise, Dragon Horse, you will take us out of Jingshi, and I will go to Xinjun. I am familiar with the inside affairs of the Ming Dynasty, the rules and regulations, and most importantly, how to restrain my subordinates, I know them all. You Banzhou set up a country on your own, and what you lack is a character like me. For example, how to train secret agents, visit hundreds of officials, and sweep away internal moles, these are all things I am good at, who of you in Banzhou can do it? Do you have a draft girl in Banzhou? I sue you, the harem has three thousand fandel, this is the rule, not even this, which son of heaven is it? Without me, you will accomplish nothing. Just talking about castration, this is also a technical job, and people who don't understand it have to make a fuss. ”

Long Xiang said in his heart: If I really want to escape, I will also bring Li Shida and a few other ministers, so they are civil officials and can be of some use. "We are in Banzhou, there is no Son of Heaven, only total poke. It is only because of the special situation that the lifelong system is temporarily implemented, and in the future, sooner or later, it will be replaced by an electoral system. ”

"No Son of Heaven? If there is no Son of Heaven, the world will not be chaotic, who do you listen to? There can be no kingdom without a king, and there can be no day without a sky. It doesn't matter what you want to call Banshu, it's actually the same. Just like the Mongols called the Great Khan, in fact, they are all the same thing. If there is no emperor, how did you come to be a colt? I sue you for being a dragon and a horse, and your name is not right, and your words are not good. There must be rules for everything, and if there are no rules, won't the world be turned upside down? And for Banzai, the most terrible enemy does not come from the outside, but from the inside. There is no Dongchang to visit hundreds of officials, and the torture is detected, in case someone below wants to rebel, it will be a big incident. ”

When Long Xiang heard the word rebellion, his mind moved. Suddenly, I felt that what the old eunuch said was not completely unreasonable. Although he has knowledge and insight beyond the indigenous people of this era, he has also set up a social security bureau and a military statistics department in Banshu. But the clerks are all local natives of Banzhou, and they don't even know the words, and their brains are not bright. Compared with these people in Dongchang, it is a little worse, maybe this old eunuch is not as useless as he imagined?

He asked, "If you want to go." You also have to think about how to move around. With so many people, if you want to trek all the way back to Banju, you can't do it at all. No matter how we run, we can't outrun the army of the imperial court. ”

"This old slave has thought about it too." At this time, Zhang Whale had completely regarded this colt as the new master, and he also called himself an old slave. "We, the sons, rely on the East Factory and dig trenches to defend them. I have stored a large amount of ammunition, money and food in the East Factory, and with these things, how can I keep him for ten days and half a month. With this time, we can run far away. The old slave is in the locality, and there are still some connections available, as long as I leave the Jingshi, I guarantee that the road will be unimpeded and I will be able to arrive in Banzhou smoothly. As for those possessions...... The only thing that matters is that the rest has to be used to reward these remaining subordinates. ”

Long Xiang listened to his idea of a gecko with a broken tail, although it was not as clever as taking the Forbidden City directly, but among them, there were places that could be used for his own use. He immediately said: "Since this is the case, then please ask Zhang Dugong to send someone to invite Li Shida, Yu Shenxing and other old adults, if you want to leave, you have to take them with you." ”

Zhang Whale said: "Even if it doesn't work." These old men dragged their families with their mouths, where to get off. Besides, they still have clan children, and there are too many burdens, so I think it's more convenient for a few of us to go. ”

"Zhang Dugong rest assured, these people have been moved by what I said, and they understand that the monarchy first is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people. In order to achieve the great cause, the clan is small, what can not be sacrificed? You just have to rest assured, when the time comes, all the bosses will be able to give up those foreign things and follow us to Banzhou to do a great job. ”

Seeing that he insisted, Zhang Whale was about to send someone to invite him. Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, and someone rushed in, "Dugong, the big thing is not good, there is a team of people and horses, blocking the yamen of our East Factory." ”

Zhang Whale said sharply: "Blocked? Who is so bold as to dare to block the gate of our East Factory, have you forgotten how to write dead words? Go and listen, whose people and horses ate the bear's heart and leopard gall? ”

"We have inquired, it is the family of Uncle Ning Yuanbo in Liaodong, and the sons of Uncle Ning Yuan are leading the team, saying that they have been ordered by the Holy Order to come to get you."

"Nonsense. His group of border troops from Liaodong entered Beijing without a purpose, which was a rebellion. Still want to take me? This is obviously a rebellion by Zheng Guifei's brothers and sisters, and they want to usurp and rebel, and they order them to go down, and the whole army will go up to the wall, guard it for me, and not let anyone in. We have to fight this group of thieves to the end. (To be continued......)
