8 Battle of Kaifeng

Hell, I got mixed up with the enemy. The year before last, he wanted to kill me, but Li Fangnan saved me at the last second - at this time, I thought that the poor queen had lost her fragrance, hey! - And then he didn't give up, and kept instigating Zhu Honghua to kill me.

But then I thought that in fact, I hurt him first the year before last, and he didn't mess with me, so I went to provoke him first if I was cheapβ€”so I deserved it.

Well, the two of us are even.

Lu Chengzhi scolded me: "You bastard, I treated you as a friend at the beginning, and you actually hurt me!" And it's going to hurt my whole family! ”

Me: "I'm so full that I'm going to hurt you?" Each for his own master. What are you scolding me for? Your master is finished, and my master is finished, what are you doing with this? Now the master is the money is determined, and we don't want to listen to him. Hurry up and finish our mission, and then break up. ”

Lu Chengzhi sighed.

I said, "Tell me, what's the situation in the Central Plains?" ”

He said, "Terrible! It's hard to put into words! ”

In late February, when the weather was freezing and it was the coldest time, Jinyiwei left his gentle township and reluctantly went on an expedition to the Central Plains.

The imperial court taxes were gone, and the Jinyi Guard did not have any money, so he grabbed it all the way. People in the Central Plains are used to robbing, what do you like to rob, I only have a few urns of food anyway, I don't want to rob or not. So the Jinyi guard marched with a bunch of grain, and those who didn't know thought it was a group of grain gangs.

They encountered a few scattered gangs, defeated them, and reclaimed several county seats. They originally wanted to recruit the people of the county to attack other counties, but the people of the Central Plains are too smart, no matter how you convince, no matter how you threaten, no matter how you kill, I just won't go. Jinyiwei has no choice, as long as he goes to attack Kaifeng by himself.

Kaifeng is the largest county seat in the Central Plains except Luoyang, and often serves as the temporary provincial capital of the Central Plains, whether it is the imperial court or the puppet dynasty. Kaifeng is the worst county seat in the Central Plains, and it is often captured and destroyed.

I don't know which sect and faction occupied Kaifeng that day, and Jinyiwei didn't care, anyway, in their hearts, the people in the rivers and lakes were a group of rabble, and killing them was like fun.

Hundreds of thousands of Jinyi guards with dozens of cannons specially approved by Qian Zhaoding, they are fully capable of flattening the city wall of Kaifeng. Part of Jin Yiwei's weapon is the Embroidered Spring Knife, after all, it is the signature weapon of Jin Yiwei; Some were muskets, the officers carried pistols, and Lu Chengzhi's pro-army carried submachine guns.

As soon as the Jinyi guards bombarded the city wall, people rushed over from all directions. The brocade guards were caught off guard, and the formation was disrupted. Usually Jinyi guards fight with civilians, where can they resist the people of martial arts?

Lu Chengzhi hurriedly sounded the military horn and issued various military orders. Although the Jinyi Guards are all pampered and bullied and afraid of the hard, they are all trained after all, and they immediately returned to their souls and formed various formations to repel the Jianghu people.

More people rushed over. This time, they found that all kinds of people from the rivers and lakes rushed over, as if they were holding a martial arts conference. Shaolin, Wudang, Huashan, Taishan, Emei, Beggars, Eunuchs...... rushed over, and all kinds of private gangs and bandits also rushed over.

The brocade guards turned their cannons and bombarded them, and muskets and submachine guns also opened fire together, making it easy to repel them.

The people in Kaifeng City also rushed out, and the two sides fought for a while.

In the end, hundreds of thousands of Jinyi guards won a tragic victory, leaving corpses all over the ground.

According to later statistics, Jinyiwei died more than 200,000, but the other party only died tens of thousands!

Lu Chengzhi interrogated the captives and found that many sects had been kicked out, their heads had been killed, and the sects had been controlled, and according to them, Jianghu Wulin was going to hold a martial arts conference in Shaolin Temple to elect a new martial arts alliance leader. He felt that this was a shocking conspiracy, so he hurried back to Chang'an to report the news.

Lu Chengzhi said to me: "What is the situation? Why did Qian Zhaoding yell at you? What did you do? ”

Me: "It's so messy, I can't explain it at all. In short, I was thrown into the royal prison by Liu Xingchao. When I was pulled up, some of the wanted criminals inside followed me, because they were kidnapping me. ”

Him: "How many?" ”

Me: "One hundred and twenty, but there aren't that many really wanted criminals." ”

Him: "Is it amazing?" ”

Me: "How can you be put in a royal prison if you're not good?" How can you survive if you are not powerful? It's not powerful, why should Qian Zhaoding care about them? Don't tell outsiders about this, you're going to die......"

Him: "How powerful?" ”

Me: "Very powerful. But it's not too powerful, is it...... After all, we are the imperial court, so we can use guns, and muskets can be used improvised. Do not use bows and arrows, for they can catch them with their bare hands. ”

Lu Chengzhi shook his head: "They really want to rebel?" Or do you just want to stay alive? ”

Me: "I don't know, but that's what I'm afraid of, they don't show up at all, they drive people to die." ”

Lu Chengzhi nodded: "What is their purpose?" A change of dynasty? Emperor? Lose your marbles! Even Liu Xingchao's one million forbidden army was defeated by the imperial court, just by them? I saw a lot of decent people coming over, and they were crazy too? ”

Me: "How many decent people in martial arts do you see?" ”

Him: "Tens of thousands." ”

I said, "It's only tens of thousands?" That's not necessarily true. There are 500,000 disciples in Shaolin Temple, and there are 500,000 disciples in Wudang, so tens of thousands have come! When Shaolin and Wudang fought, the situation was more fierce than that of the imperial court and the rebels. Oh yes, Shaolin and Wudang have died I don't know how many times, I don't know what happened before, what I know in the past six or seven years is: Shaolin was destroyed once by the new Shaolin, once by Zhao Zhengbao, and once by the imperial court; Wudang was wiped out by Shaolin once, and the head of the family died one more time. When people talk about Wudang Shaolin, do they know what Wudang Shaolin is? ”

Lu Chengzhi laughed and said, "The forbidden army has also attacked Shaolin before. At that time, the Shaolin host did not give face to the temple, and the temple sued Li Yongfu, and Li Yongfu sent hundreds of forbidden troops to kill the Shaolin master with submachine guns. ”

He gestured with his submachine gun and shouted "suddenly".

I laughed: "Shaolin host is amazing, isn't it?" ”

Lu Chengzhi said: "Who knows! Hundreds of forbidden soldiers beat him directly into a pulp, who knows if he is powerful. Later, they chose a random person to impersonate him. Hey, it was arrogant enough back then. ”

I said to him, "Well, since we're going to fight the bandits together, why don't we go out and have a drink." ”

He nodded happily in agreement.

Human beings are really strange things, they treat a person through the distance of their relationship, but they think they look at it through feelings, morality, justice, and logic. That's why you excuse the bad guy when it's your friend, relative, or even yourself. That's why you've been with a bad guy for a long time, and you think he's pretty good. That's why people like to eat and drink all the time – when you're ready to eat and drink with others, it means you're ready to lose your principles. Therefore, Lu Chengzhi and I became good friends.

We drank and talked.

Me: "I heard you were in the Forbidden Army back then?" What position do you hold in the Praetorian Army? ”

Lu Chengzhi: "Sergeant." ”

Me: "Wow, I'm a lieutenant general in the Praetorian Army. I mean, ever. Ha ha! ”

Lu Chengzhi: "Oh? How many soldiers have you led? ”

Me: "Uh...... Zero people. I'm a clergyman. ”

Lu Chengzhi: "I once had nine people under him. I'll take them to war, where is that? Where's the fight...... Ahh Everyone died, and I'm going to die, but in the end they picked me up from the pile of corpses. I recovered from my wounds and wanted to go to the Forbidden Army, but when it was full, they kicked me out. I had nowhere else to go, so I had to mix with the Gyeonggi army. ”

Me: "So you hate the Inner Court and the Forbidden Army?" ”

Lu Chengzhi: "I don't hate." Didn't you say, each his own master? ”

Me: "Haha. ”

Lu Chengzhi looked at me and said, "I'm curious, how did you get a forbidden army?" ”

Me: "Quite simply, we have the same interests. If they don't listen to me, they will all die in Chang'an. Who wants to die? Even if you die, it has to be meaningful. ”

Lu Chengzhi: "This is like my eldest brother's tone. ”

Me: "Luoyang County Magistrate? Your brother is Luoyang, now Lu Chengjing, right? I've seen him. He is also very powerful, the elders of the Four Dynasties - Daming, Zhao Zhengbao, Dahan, and Co-governance. ”

Lu Chengzhi: "That guy is 20 years older than me. ”

Me: "Wow, that's so big. Why did you kill him? He bullied you? ”

Lu Chengzhi: "He grew up with me, and our relationship is as good as father and son, why should I kill him?" ”

Me: "Then you ...... at the court?"

Lu Chengzhi: "Lie to those idiots, you can also believe what I say......"

"Haha!" The two continued to drink.
