In the second half of the night, Luoyang City was still very calm, and even the Dongwang Mansion was calm as usual. At this time, Lin Ke was already secretly "dispatching troops" to complete his rebellion. The first step in the plan was to get in touch with the generals who defended the city gate and help the rebels outside the city enter the city.

Because the plan was one day in advance, many things were prepared in a hurry, which was very tricky, and Lin Ke was also a little uncertain in his heart. Originally, when the minister of the DPRK and the central government sent someone to his mansion to report that "something big had happened", he was already quite panicked, and then he sent someone to Luoyang to inquire about the city gate that had originally contacted the city, only to learn that the news was just the smoke released from the Dongwang Mansion, and the real situation was only that the military yamen sent some people to the city defense yamen to do some coordination, and the transfer was only the middle and lower level generals, and did not involve the key figures of the real city defense.

But no matter what, the Dongwang Mansion also sensed that something was wrong, and Lin Ke felt that he couldn't sit still, and when it was dawn, even if the Dongwang himself was not in Luoyang, after all, there were Han Song's family in Luoyang, and Yang Rui. Although he rebelled for the imperial court, he did not get Yang Rui's nod of approval at all, he knew that it was impossible for Yang Rui to make the contradiction with the Eastern Wangfu public, and he could only act as a minister.

When the news reached the refugee camp outside the city, the rebels began to prepare, and it was already the fourth watch.

Lin Ke knew that things could not be delayed until dawn, and he had to prepare for the rebellious army outside the city to enter the city on the one hand, and prepare for the contact of the generals of the Eastern Wangfu inside the city on the other. Everything is a bit chaotic and complicated, there are not many people who can help him, I have contacted some generals of the military department before, but most of these people are in their own mansions in the middle of the night, and it is very troublesome to contact them themselves. Lin Ke tried his best to simplify the complexity, first contacted some core backbones, and then used these backbones to expand the situation, which could save him a lot of trouble.

It's almost five watches. Lin Kecai finally got the news that the rebel army was about to enter the city. Originally, the rebel army was going to enter the city through the Bac Ninh Gate, but the soldiers and horses encountered some trouble outside the city, because the rebel army suddenly broke away from the refugees, making the refugees think that there was a shortage of soldiers, and they all moved with it, making this group of men and horses quite chaotic. Originally, the commander of the chaotic army thought that there were refugees to help. Entering Luoyang City can cause even greater chaos. But this chaos has only appeared outside the city, and before entering Luoyang City, the chaotic army is in chaos, and even the commander's whereabouts are unknown.

Outside the Bac Ninh Gate, the city gate was delayed, which made the refugees and rebels outside the city clamoring, and the new army camp of the imperial court faction outside the city was the first to be alarmed, and some of the new army of the imperial court had begun to assemble to prepare for "counterinsurgency".

After all, Lin Ke was not a general, and he had little experience in war. In terms of leading troops and coordination, he is even more of a layman. The problem is that Lin Ke originally got in touch with the military department, so that after the chaos in the city, the military department could use the new army of the imperial court faction to enter the city to maintain order, and then this new army could become the force to guard Luoyang and be used by him. But after all, the incident was a day in advance, and the news was not well communicated. In addition, the military department did not dare to leak the news in advance, so that the generals of the new army of the imperial court thought that refugees outside the city wanted to take advantage of the chaos to storm the city gate. So without any instructions from the imperial court, they had already begun to assemble and prepare to quell the rebellion outside the city.

Poor communication brought a lot of trouble to the uprising, Lin Ke tried to get in touch with the military department Shangshu and asked him to write an edict in the name of the Son of Heaven to order the new imperial army outside the city to stop the rebellious army, and at the same time to communicate with the renegade generals in the East Palace. Two things had to be done at the same time, and the entire Lin Mansion was already in chaos. At this time, Lin Ke got the news that the Dongwang Mansion had been alarmed, and as the "No. 2 person" in the Dongwang Mansion, the princess Han Song had begun to mobilize the soldiers and horses stationed in Luoyang City into the inner city. To hold on to the city gates will not change.

"Lin Shilang, hurry up and inform the soldiers and horses outside the city, although there are our people among the people and horses that Princess Dong can mobilize, but once this group of people and horses enters the city, I am afraid we will not be able to occupy the city gate." The generals under his command were already as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and hurriedly ran over from the city gate to urge, "Not to mention controlling the palace." Now the palace guards are controlled by the people of the Eastern Palace. ”

Lin Ke was also very anxious, but he was glad in his heart that the East King was not in Luoyang City at this time. In his mind, if the king of the east had been in the city, with the present level of chaos among him and those who had rebelled with him, he would have been suppressed by the bullet long ago. But even so, the rebel army outside the city still did not pass through the city gate, and the rebel army could not enter the city, and those who had already expressed their support for him to clear the Dongwang Mansion did not dare to do it. At such times, whoever gains the power can get more support, and these people are cunning, and they don't see the rabbit and don't scatter the eagle.

"Go and inform Liu Shilang of the Ministry of War, and let him personally go out of the city to the camp in the east of the city to control the soldiers and horses!"

Lin Ke finally gave the death order, and whether it can be done now depends on whether the rebel army outside the city can quickly enter the city. In order to achieve the goal, some things can not be taken into account, there are many people, originally did not want to come forward in advance, just like some generals of the military department, these people are in a dangerous position, knowing that they are being watched by the Dongwangfu at any time, if they have any changes, the Dongwangfu will attack them. But now that the arrow is on the bow, Lin Ke is too busy to take care of himself, how can he still have the time to consider the position of these people, and it is the most important thing to solve the current embarrassment as soon as possible.

It was only at this time that Lin Ke's generals learned that Liu Shilang from the original military department was also involved in this operation. You must know that Liu He, the right attendant of the Ministry of War, is the commander of the new army appointed by Yang Rui, and is responsible for the training and coordination of the new army on weekdays, although the new army of the imperial court has been initially formed and Liu He has also been transferred back to the capital to standby, but Liu He's status in the new army is respected, and many generals of the new army are also his protégés or he pulled them up.

As the order was issued, someone immediately went to inform Liu He and asked Liu He to go out of the city to coordinate in person. With the help of the commander of the new army, the position was finally stabilized, and the guards at the city gate also opened the city gate, and the rebel army entered the city, but at this time it was already five watches, and it was less than an hour before dawn.

"Take Your Majesty's imperial decree directly to the gates of the city to take over the defense, and if anyone obstructs it, it will be killed." Lin Ke's heart settled down a little, and after two hours of tossing, everything began to get on the right track, which was basically consistent with the previous plan, the rebel army entered the city, and then created a rumor that the king of the east had died from the chaotic army. Then let people take the forged edict of the Son of Heaven to take over the defense of Luoyang, and when everything in defense is taken over, then encircle and suppress the East Wangfu and the palace with soldiers and horses. At that time, even if the East King jumps out of the crack in the stone, the overall situation has been decided, and whether to support Yang Rui as the Son of Heaven or the crown prince as the emperor depends on what the final situation needs.

Although things have progressed. But Lin Ke was still a little uneasy. He was a little uneasy in the mansion, and the entire Lin Mansion was also the headquarters of the Luoyang rebellion today.

But after he gave the order to have people bring a forged edict of the Son of Heaven to take over the city gate, it was like a stone falling into the water, and there was no movement at all. As for what happened on the front line, Lin Ke didn't get any news for half an hour, as if all the connection points with the Lin Mansion were broken at this time.

Lin Ke felt the seriousness of the problem, but he still didn't believe that the Dongwang Mansion could respond so quickly, after all, everything had been done almost now. Even the rebel army has entered the city, if the Eastern Prince's Mansion has already noticed it, how can it let the rebel army outside the city enter the city? Moreover, Liu He has also gone to the new army camp outside the city, since Liu He can let the new army stop the liquidation of the rebellious army, it also means that Liu He has mastered more than 10,000 new troops in the east of the city. This is not a chaotic army, but a regular army, although there is no experience in actual combat, how can it be said that after the fact. Luoyang can also be defended.

"Lin Shilang, what's the matter...... It doesn't seem like there's much news. But have you sent someone to investigate? ”

Some of the people who stayed in the Lin Mansion overnight also felt the seriousness of the problem. These people are now grasshoppers on the same rope as Lin Ke, and if something happens, Lin Ke can't bear it alone. When they came, they not only wanted to help Lin Ke succeed, but also to get a piece of the pie after the matter was completed, so that they could call for wind and rain in the court. After all, without the great trouble of the East Prince's Mansion, the entire Luoyang Imperial Court would be returned to their control, and the power that was now obtained by Gu Weipan and Ning Yuan. It also includes the power of the East King, which will fall into their hands.

Lin Ke said impatiently: "After the matter is completed, someone will come to inform you, things have come to such a field, there is no turning back from the bow, do you still want to withdraw?" ”

Lin Ke was very worried. If it fails from the beginning, the whole plan has not been exposed too much, and some people have not surfaced, even if the Dongwangfu can kill him and some generals in the court this time, it will still leave the roots, and it will be rumored that the Dongwangfu will be eradicated sooner or later. But if the matter is defeated now, then almost all the people involved in the matter will be captured, and then it will take a few years or even decades to cultivate a group of people who can have the power and ability at hand to fight the Dongwang Mansion.

"Master, master, it's not good." The housekeeper of the Lin Mansion suddenly rushed in, at this time the sky outside was already dark, and Lin Ke also heard the housekeeper's hurried shout, only to notice that the sky had begun to clear, that is to say, what happened this night should almost have an ending.

Lin Ke walked to the door, and the supporters behind him also followed. I saw that the throat of the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion seemed to be blocked by something, and he didn't explain the matter for a long time.

"Speak slowly!"

Lin Ke was about to let the housekeeper take a breath, when a scream came from the courtyard, and that scream was a bit heartbreaking, attracting everyone's attention. But I saw a soldier from the Lin Mansion who was pushed in with a spear, and that sound was shouted from the mouth of the soldier. Next, a large number of soldiers and horses came to the courtyard of the Lin Mansion, and these people were dressed in the clothes of the new army of the imperial court, not the soldiers and horses of the Eastern Prince's Mansion.

Lin Ke, the leader of the soldiers, didn't know him, but Lin Ke knew that since last night, he had arranged a large number of family soldiers, and also mobilized the city guards he could mobilize to maintain the safety of his mansion, and he didn't think about withdrawing to another place to command. However, the incident itself is sudden, and many things need a clear "headquarters", otherwise some orders will not be directly transmitted. But it was precisely because of this that his mansion was exposed to the attention of the East Prince's Mansion, but he never expected that it was not the people of the East Prince's Mansion who led the troops, but the new army.

"You ...... What do you want to do? Lin Ke felt that the problem was unusual, if the Dongwangfu people came, it could only mean that the plan had failed, and the Dongwangfu had already occupied the initiative in the city, otherwise the Dongwangfu should be recapturing the lost city gate at this time, and there was no time to send troops to his mansion to kill him. You must know that just killing him with Lin Ke will not help.

It feels like it should be the internal backlash of "my own people", and after some people used him as a gun, they didn't repay the favor, but killed him.

"Lin Shilang, don't be nervous, it's me." A voice came from the shadows behind the courtyard, and this voice made Lin Ke feel a little familiar. After he reacted, he was surprised to see the people in front of him slowly walking out, and at this time, the soldiers of the new army had already poured into the Lin Mansion, and the generals who were still discussing the military plane with him just now had all been taken down. On the contrary, he went out first, and no one stepped forward to arrest him.

"East King?" Lin Ke looked at Han Jian in front of him in surprise.

Han Jian was just dressed in civilian clothes, and he didn't even have armor on his body, and he looked calm and relaxed, as if he didn't come to his mansion to arrest him, but just to discuss things with him. Han Jian's words just now also made Lin Ke not hear any bloody smell at all, so that he didn't react at first, that sound came from the mouth of his great enemy tonight.

Han Jian smiled, when Han Jian walked into the courtyard, there was already a strong bloody gas in the entire courtyard, Lin Ke found that these soldiers did not cause any killing after entering the mansion, and said that the source of this bloody qi should come from the outer defense of the Lin Mansion. Han Jian did not "walk" in as lightly as he appeared in front of him, but "killed" in. Because he found that Han still had a slight amount of blood on his body.

"King Dong, what are you ......" Lin Ke wanted to calm down as much as possible, but Han Jian's appearance had already disrupted his plan. He made up his mind to rebel last night, and it was when he learned that Han Jian was not in the city. If he knew that Han Jian was in the city, and the East Wangfu had received the news in advance, he would not dare to be so blatantly hostile to the East Wangfu.

After all, what Han Jian has done in the past few years has caused Lin Ke a deep sense of jealousy, if Han Jian hadn't disappeared suddenly, maybe the plan to rebel would have been carried out a few days in advance, it was because he was not sure whether Han Jian was in Luoyang, and he was afraid that Han Jian would get the news in advance and respond, so he kept delaying. It wasn't until last night that the incident suddenly started early, and the whole plan was in chaos. (To be continued......)
