Chapter 621: Extermination
"Your Majesty, you can't kill the old minister, the concubine is your pillow person, so many years of careful service to Your Majesty, there is no merit and hard work!"
Tian Hong was bleeding from kowtow, tears flowed, not to mention how sad he cried. In the past, Chongzhen might have been confused, but now his eyes are bright.
When Zhang Ke entered the city, these people were all well-behaved like grandsons, desperately settling with the new emperor, how could they not know family affection at that time, and they didn't know that they were the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty?
Clever words, all clever words!
"Tian Hongyu, look at the python robe on your body, are you worthy of my Hongen!"
A sword stabbed out, Chongzhen's mood was agitated, the strength in his hand was insufficient, and he only pierced more than an inch, blood gushed out from his chest, Tian Hongyu was so frightened that his soul flew away, he jumped up from the ground suddenly, turned his head and ran.
"Kill, kill!"
Chongzhen gritted his teeth, laughed like a beast, took a big stride, and ran to the door, Tian Hongyu tripped over the threshold, his body fell heavily to the ground, and rolled down the steps.
Chongzhen jumped behind Tian Hongyu in one step, raised his sword, and stabbed hard.
Poof, blood splashed, Tian Hongyu's abdomen was pierced, Chongzhen was still angry, and turned the hilt of the sword hard, grinding all the internal organs, the corners of Tian Hongyu's mouth twitched a few times, and he lost his breath.
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Chongzhen suddenly raised his head to the sky and howled, letting out a beast-like howl.
He has reason to be angry, for more than ten years, he has been deceived by these so-called loyal ministers, they and Zhang Ke are all good all the way, and they are all sinners who covet the Ming Dynasty.
Kill, kill, kill!
"Spread my will, burn the courtroom, and not a single person inside is allowed to be released!"
Wang Chengen, who had been following Chongzhen, hurriedly waved his hand, and hundreds of forbidden soldiers found more than a dozen barrels of fish oil, poured them around the courtroom, and threw a torch into it. In an instant, the flames soared, and the flames filled the sky.
In the courtroom, there were more than a hundred and so high-ranking officials, all of whom were tied hand and foot, and they were all stupid when they saw the flames burst out.
"Your Majesty, spare your life, spare your life!"
A terrible roar showed their intense fear, and tongues of fire rushed through the window, and a nearby black gauze hat was set on fire. My hair burned too. He screamed in pain, jumped up from the ground, howled wildly, and ran outside. But his legs were tied, and he fell to the ground, his front teeth were broken, blood was gushing, and the fire was still burning, and he rolled back and forth on the ground in pain.
Where to roll. Wherever there were flames, they frightened the rest of the officials into madness, and they beat them with their fists and kicks. Desperately roared, pushing the unlucky guy out.
While they were staring at this guy with all their attention, countless tongues of fire rushed in before they knew it, and they all caught fire. Rumble!
Everybody is crazy. They jumped to their feet, screaming desperately, and slamming their bodies around. There are teeth to bite, and the instinct to survive makes them forget all the pain. Someone finally knocked open the gate, and when they stumbled and ran outside, the bowstring sounded and the arrows rained down, and Chongzhen stood behind the fire, staring at the former minister, his blood was boiling, and his whole body trembled with excitement.
"Shameless, die! Ungrateful brute, don't want to live! Come on, pour oil! ”
Ignoring the screams of the ministers, the soldiers poured buckets of oil over them, and the flames gradually engulfed everyone, their roars echoing in their ears like imps.
The ministers were burned, and Zhang Ke's situation was similar at this time, Yuan Chonghuan set fire everywhere, and the house where Zhang Ke was hiding was also engulfed in flames. Qiao Fu and Qiao Gui had black ashes on their faces, like little ghosts, protecting Zhang Ke on the left and on the right.
"Brother Ke, the house can't stay, we will keep you out, rest assured, even if our brother's blood runs dry, we will definitely not let Brother Ke be hurt at all!"
Liu Shaoqing and Ma Rufeng also nodded to the ground on one knee and roared: "Your Majesty, the ministers and others are willing to die!" ”
Seeing the truth in adversity, seeing that his subordinates could be so loyal, Zhang Ke's heart was warm, but he smiled.
"You still have to mention that I will conquer and kill the Quartet, and I will share the wealth and wealth, don't be in a hurry to die!"
Zhang Ke's voice fell, a gust of wind blew, the tongue of fire jumped to the corridor, the pillars of the paint and color paintings were on fire, and the smoke was billowing out, choking everyone coughing constantly.
"Brother Ke, don't be reckless, come with us!"
Qiao Fu didn't say a word, grabbed Zhang Ke's arm and ran, Zhang Ke resolutely pushed his arm.
"Qiao Fu, at this time, there are chaotic soldiers on the road, where are we going? Besides, it's not as safe as this one? ”
The flames flew over, and Qiao Gui's battle robe was burned.
"Yongzhen, look at it, how can it be safe here? Let's go! ”
Zhang Ke suddenly laughed, pointed at the big guy with his finger, and said: "Okay, let's uncover the mystery, a good day for the dignified Zen, how can I not be prepared at all, isn't that a joke with my own life?" ”
Everyone was stunned, could it be that Zhang Ke had been prepared, but how did everyone get mixed up like this?
When he was stunned, suddenly there was a shout of killing in the front yard, and some rebels rushed in, slashing and killing frantically, and several sentry soldiers hurriedly ran to report the news.
"Your Majesty, the thieves are here!"
Zhang Ke nodded, turned around, and jumped into the pond in front of him, and the others followed. The cold and biting water temperature made many people cramp, but everyone endured it, Zhang Ke walked in the front and quickly reached the shore.
It turned out that there was a flower house on the shore, Zhang Ke did not hesitate, bowed his head and walked in, Qiao Fu followed behind, only to see Zhang Ke pointing to the cabinet against the wall and saying, "Move away." ”
"Yes."
Qiao Fu moved it hard, the cabinet flashed open, and a damp and rotten smell gushed out from the ground, and when he looked at it, he saw a black hole in the tunnel, appearing in front of him.
"Is this authentic?"
When Qiao Gui heard this, they came over, and they were dumbfounded, Zhang Ke stretched out his hand and beckoned: "Don't delay everyone, let's go in quickly." ”
Everyone is desperate, one by one, Zhang Ke is the last, after entering the tunnel more than ten zhang, there is a bamboo pole on the ground, Zhang Ke opened the seal, took out a fire rope from it, lit it with a fire fold, turned around and ran hard. Almost a minute later, there was a loud bang, and the sand and soil in the tunnel fell, and as for the flower house, it had already flown into the sky, and the tunnel entrance could no longer be found.
Qiao Fu was in the tunnel, jumping three feet high excitedly. The head hit a bag!
Covering his head, Qiao Fuwei shouted: "Brother Ke, what the hell is going on, can you pinch and calculate, and know how to get out of today?" ”
Everyone was full of questions and stared at Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke nodded, shook his head again, and said with a smile: "Everyone is a brother in distress, so I won't hide it." Chongzhen summoned Xu Hongji. secretly preparing to counterattack, I was clear, but I didn't expect him to make such a big move, and it was also my mistake. ”
Ma Rufeng suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, are you watching Chongzhen act?" ”
"Well, if there is no chaos, there will be no order, the capital has gone through more than two hundred years, and the officials of various yamen have banned the army in Beijing. Jinyi Weidong Factory, Xun Gui Ding, gentry and business giants, all kinds of forces. Intricately intertwined. Although Chongzhen's ability to Zen has reduced trouble, it has also left too much old garbage. Give him a chance, that is, let him kill and slash, and our people will also be mixed in. Kill everyone who deserves to be killed, and we'll take over a clean capital! ”
Oh!
Everyone woke up like a dream, it turned out that Zhang Ke's calculation was so deep. It's just that the tunnel in front of me is too strange, could it be made these days? But it doesn't look like it!
Zhang Ke saw everyone's doubts and explained: "Speaking of which, this tunnel is still dug with light smoke, we just dealt with Jiannu, and the apocalypse transferred me back to the capital. Miss Shen was worried that I would be killed, so in the name of hoarding medicinal materials in Tongrentang, she built a warehouse on the ground and dug a dark tunnel underground, which was five miles long at that time. Later, although it was not used, but I felt that it could not be abandoned, so I continued to expand, ten years of work, I dare not say that there are tunnels everywhere in the capital, at least from the inner city to the outer city is no problem. ”
After listening to Zhang Ke, everyone only had to raise their thumbs.
What is called scheming, this is!
The foreshadowing more than ten years ago is now used, and it can only be said that God is on Zhang Ke's side.
As they spoke, they walked forward, and everyone looked at everything in the tunnel with excitement. After walking out of a mile or so, there was a large space in front of it, there were several ceramic jars on the ground, open it and see, it was full of candles, the torches were about to burn out, everyone picked up the candles, lit them, and continued to walk forward.
"Hehe, Brother Ke, you are so well prepared, why don't you arrange some water and food to fill your stomach!"
"You and I can count everything, if you can find the tunnel, even if we God bless."
What Zhang Ke said is true, the entrance to the secret passage arranged by Shen Qingyan has a branch of Tongrentang, a warehouse, and a lot of houses. Where can Zhang Ke recognize it, fortunately, when he came in, he saw the sign of Tongrentang, so he took the risk of gambling, but he didn't expect to win.
Some people are happy and some are worried, the battle outside the city has reached a fever pitch, He An knew that Zhang Ke was in the city, so he simply threw off his bare shoulders and took the lead in the charge.
The firearms of the Yizhou soldiers were sharp, and the bullets almost covered the city wall, so that the Beijing camp couldn't raise its head at all. As long as the head is exposed, it will be crushed. Xu Hongji held the knife and personally supervised the battle, the old man's white beard was fluttering, and sweat was flowing on his head.
The Xu family followed the Ming Dynasty and enjoyed the glory of more than two hundred years, and the Ming Dynasty was finished, and they had only one way to die. Therefore, even if Xu Hongji and Zhang Ke have some friendship, at this time, they will not be polite.
It happened that Zhang Ke's decree offended many gentry and landlords, these people paid money, Xu Hongji sent people, and Yuan Chonghuan ran back and forth. They first replaced the forbidden army with their own people, and then hid their men and horses among the millions of people in Sijiu City to deceive Zhang Ke's spies.
Xu Hong basically planned that the fake Chongzhen assassination was successful, so he protected Chongzhen and immediately broke through to the south.
Even if Zhang Ke died, the Yizhou soldiers would be able to tear them apart, only when they arrived in Nanjing, where there happened to be a complete team, and Xu Hongji's cronies were also there, guarding half of the country, and they could just make a comeback.
However, Zhang Ke dodged the fatal blow, and Xu Hongji had to swing the horse cannon and fight with Zhang Ke. He calculated, he can hold out for two hours at most, as long as this time, Yuan Chonghuan can kill Zhang Ke, they have a chance, if not......
The old man prayed silently: "The ancestors and the ancestors are above, bless me Xu Hongji to continue the Ming Dynasty, protect the safety of the saints, and eradicate the traitorous ......"
Before he could speak, suddenly there was an explosion in the direction of the city gate, Xu Hongji raised his head suddenly, and saw a scene, the city gate flew high, and many soldiers were blown up and their bodies flew around, and from the smoke of gunpowder, the Yizhou soldiers rushed in like tigers.
"Kill, don't leave a single one!"
He An roared loudly, the knife in his hand dancing like flying, and the sound of popping continued, and every blow was a human life. The Yizhou soldiers in the back were even more crazy, they took the most advanced firearms, and they hit with guns at a distance, and used bayonets when they entered.
People are constantly being pierced through their bodies, triangular wounds, blood is constantly flowing, or they will die soon.
He An led the men and horses, like a group of tigers, rushing fiercely and bravely, and the soft-footed shrimp in the Beijing camp couldn't stop it for long, and the corpses were all over the ground, throwing down their weapons and running.
"Useless things, damn it!"
Xu Hongji swung his knife and slashed the two deserters, but it was still useless, he could only be ruthless and command his own soldiers to rush up.
"Kill, kill all the traitors for the old man!"
"I think you're a traitor, die!" He An raised his knife violently and pounced towards Xu Hongji, Xu Hongji hurriedly moved to block, speaking of which, Xu Hongji was also skilled in archers and horses when he was young, although he was a little older, but he always felt that he could still lead troops to fight.
Touching He An, Xu Hongji immediately felt bad, He An's knife looked fierce, but it was actually weird, he raised his knife to block, and he pounced, and then there was a sharp pain in his shoulder, and with the armor, a piece of flesh was cut down, and the blood stained half of his body red in an instant.
"Ahh
The pain made Xu Hongji's body shake, and the soldiers hurriedly ran over and helped him.
"Grandpa Guo, let's go!"
Xu Hongji still wanted to work hard, but the pain in her body made her eyes black for a while, and the old man's heart was desolate, he was not as powerful as his ancestors after all, and he was afraid that he would not be able to help Sheji.
"Let's go, go to Your Majesty."
Without the main general, Jingying soon went their separate ways, looking for their own mothers. He An commanded the army, and after capturing the outer city, he did not hesitate and pounced towards the Daming Gate.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Xu Hongji burst into flames, ran to Zuoshun Gate, and saw the flames rushing to the sky from a distance, his heart trembled, could it be that Chongzhen had a mistake?
When he got closer, he suddenly found Chongzhen holding a sword in his hand, facing the firelight, laughing, and tears came out. There was an indescribable stench in the thick smoke, which made people faint.
"Your Majesty!"
Seeing Xu Hongji, Chongzhen jumped up, pointed to the fire, and shouted loudly: "Look, the rebels and thieves, the rebels and thieves have all been burned to death by me, they are all burned to death!" ”
Could it be that Zhang Ke is also dead?
Xu Hongji was excited, but when he saw Wang Chengen shaking his head, he knew that Bai was happy.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is incompetent, he has lost the city gate, and the traitors have all come in, please follow the old minister to break through quickly."
Chongzhen heard the word traitor, his face flushed, he held his sword, and shouted loudly: "Come, let them come, I will kill them all if you come!" ”
Chongzhen basically fell into a state of semi-madness, Xu Hongji really had no choice, give Wang Chengen a look, several eunuchs held Chongzhen, turned around and ran to the west, Chongzhen's shouts were still echoing. (To be continued......)
