Chapter 386: The overall situation is preliminary

Lei Zhanbiao died of exhaustion, and at this time, the battle situation on the side of the Fubiao camp gradually came to an end. The people were originally outnumbered, and Yun Chuqi didn't know where to get a few big drums, and ordered a few people to beat hard, and on the other hand, he called more than 100 men, shouting in unison, "Kill, kill, kill the thief!" "It's majestic. Don't underestimate this trick, when you meet on a narrow road, the momentum of the battle is the most important. With the sound of the drums and the shouts of slaughter, the people are all brave. And the soldiers of the Fubiao battalion were originally discouraged, and now they are even more frightened.

Although the people have no formal training, they are better than the crowd, and they are unstoppable. Even if there were some dead and wounded, the ones behind also rushed up desperately. Shen Yu's henchman team, at the beginning, relied on the neatness of the team to block the impact of the people's tide, but then Ye Zhengfei took the bird gun team of the Jinyi Guard, shooting from the back row by row, which was difficult to maintain. The standard battalion soldiers rushed to Yan Hong's banner to surrender, and some directly rebelled. After a while, there were fewer and fewer people around Shen Yu, as if the glacier was rapidly melting in the warm current.

Rao is Shen Yu's martial arts are strong, and he has also been created in many places at this time. Seeing that the general trend was gone, he couldn't help shouting: "God doesn't bless me, a certain family is not convinced!" Even if you die, you won't accept it! ”

However, at this time, who asks you if you are convinced? The besieging civilians, brocade guards, and standard battalion soldiers came with swords and guns like wheels. Shen Yu gritted his teeth and cut down another brocade guard, but he felt a pain in his vest, and he didn't know about it. In a moment, a soldier shouted, "Shen Yu's head has been cut off by me." The official is promoted to the second level, and the reward is a thousand gold! Holding the head of his former chief in his hand, he jumped and jumped happily, for fear that Lord Qincha would not be able to see clearly. Give credit to others.

This was a rebellion that lasted in the middle of the night. Finally, at dawn it was completely pacified. Bandits and soldiers on the streets. Except for those who defected, the rest have all been killed. The soldiers and horses of the right guard of Jinan have been military households for generations, and the White Lotus Sect is difficult to penetrate, so although a small number of them participated in the rebellion, on the whole, they are still relatively reliable. Those small groups of officers and soldiers who were sporadically rebellious, or the archers, people, and servants controlled by the White Lotus Sect, also took to the streets to participate in the rebellion. Now it's all the death of the dead, and the fall of the fall. Ma Tengyun, a thousand households of the local brocade guard, led the team to mutiny, but after the real fight, most of his subordinates refused to obey the command, so this brocade old man only ended up obediently tied up.

Only Liu Cai's Fubiao still has 2,000 men and horses in the battalion, and it is difficult for them to judge what their position is. Therefore, the soldiers and horses of the right guard of Jinan, together with more than 10,000 people armed by the White Lotus Sect, quickly blocked the pacesetter camp. Besieged another two thousand pacesetters.

At this time, the general Wei Guoliang, who had come to report to Yan Hong before, volunteered again. said that Shen Yu had already brought all the rebel pacesetters, and most of those who stayed in the camp did not know about the rebellion, and they were willing to enter the camp to persuade them to surrender.

Yan Hong was greatly appreciative and asked him if he wanted to bring some soldiers and horses to escort him? Wei Guo Liang Dao didn't need it, just asked the Qin Mission's Guan Fang to come and sign an official document, explaining that the pacesetters who stayed in the camp did not know their feelings, and whether it was Shen Yu's rebellion or Liu Cai's rebellion, they would not be asked about their crimes. What's wrong with that? Yan Hong immediately asked Ye Zhengfei to write an official document, please go out of the Qinchaguan to cover it, and let Wei Guoliang take it into the camp.

After a short time, the drums in the camp were heard, and the camp gate was wide open. The whole standard battalion lined up, and it was Wei Guoliang who took the lead. There was also a group of middle- and lower-level officers who came to Yan Hong and Hai Rui one after another, knelt down and pleaded guilty, and asked for resignation. Yan Hong and Hai Rui naturally comforted them, saying that they stuck to their duties, and they never rebelled, and they were meritorious and innocent.

This matter was settled, Yan Hong praised Wei Guoliang and said: "General Wei, you have made two great contributions today, and after Ben Qin returns to the court, you will definitely be rewarded long live!" ”

Wei Guoliang arched his hand and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the old man, and the reward is something that Guoliang does not dare to hope for." It's just that this time I can repay the grace of Lord Hai back then, and I feel at ease. ”

It turned out that this general guard was originally from Chun'an, Zhejiang, and two or three years ago he acted bravely in the county and injured a rich son who was molesting a people's girl. He was a martial artist, how to fight the rich and powerful gentry, and after being tortured and beaten half to death by the county officials at the time, he was sentenced to be beheaded. When he dealt with the old case, he found that the confession in the case file was vague and the facts were unclear. A retrial was held, and then the facts were ascertained, he was acquitted, and the gentleman was severely punished.

Although Wei Guoliang escaped to death, he thought that when Mr. Hai finally left office, his family offended the gentry, and this time he was wronged, but the grudge was even bigger, and it was difficult to gain a long-term foothold in his hometown. So he left his hometown, wandered the rivers and lakes, and came all the way to Shandong to bid for the battalion to be a soldier. He had a martial arts, and he had read some books part-time, and he became a master in less than two years. This is also Shen Yu himself was excluded everywhere because no one was promoted, and after becoming a camp official, he used people only for talent and not for money, so that he could make a career.

Therefore, in Wei Guoliang's heart, the first was grateful to Hai Rui, and the second was grateful to Shen Yu. It's just that when I looked at some of Shen Yu's actions later, I faintly felt that something was wrong. When Hai Rui came to give relief this time, Wei Guoliang did not forget his great kindness at all times, and heard that Shen Yu gathered people to attack the Qincha Yamen, Shen Yu knew that it was not good, so he rushed to report the news, and was willing to live and die with Haigong to repay the great virtue. Later, when he saw that Shen Yu's rebellion failed and he was killed, he only sighed secretly.

Yan Hong heard Wei Guoliang say this, and couldn't help but think in his heart: Haigong is a person, and he is actually quite incompatible with me. However, seeing that as soon as he appeared, he made the officers of the standard battalion fight back, and the word morality did not seem to be completely useless. Seeing that Wei Guoliang was so clear about his grievances, he nodded again and said: "You know how to repay your kindness, and you have made great contributions to the court, I don't know what you want?" ”

Wei Guoliang hesitated slightly, lowered his head and said: "Shen Yu did something rebellious, and he deserved to die, but he wanted to ask the boss for mercy and allowed me to bury his body to repay his promotion." ”

Yan Hong turned his face and asked Hai Rui, "Brother Hai, this is not illegal, right?" "Now there is a door god on the side, and he does not dare to agree to some things that he is not sure about, so as not to cause trouble.

Hai Rui nodded and said: "Even if Wei Guoliang doesn't plead, after this Shen Yu kills his head, the corpse will also be retracted." If the deceased is buried, it does not violate the Ming law. ”

Yan Hong said: "General Wei, have you listened?" I don't thank Lord Hai for his grace anymore. What he said pushed the matter of Wei Guoliang's burial of Shen Yu onto Hai Rui. lest this fellow speak well now. What trouble will you find in the future. Wei Guoliang was originally the most convinced of Hai Rui. Naturally, kowtow and thank you without mentioning it.

When everything subsided, the losses were checked, and hundreds of homes were burned in Jinan City because of the war and the spread of fires. In addition to the casualties of the victims, soldiers and White Lotus cultists involved in the rebellion, no less than 1,000 people were inexplicably affected, and there were not many Zhuangzi who were looted by Lei Zhanbiao and others outside the city. Although the streets and alleys often see the tragic scene of a night of chaos, the local people and the people who fled the disaster in various places did not hate the government at all. On the contrary, he decided that Yan Hongyan, the noble son of the Beijing Division, was a very good person and a clean official, if it weren't for him, I didn't know how much trouble Lu Dao was going to cause last night, maybe everyone would die!

This is not surprising, after Yan Hong came, on the first day, there was a big break in the Spring Pavilion, leaving a good reputation, and then he organized rice relief to stabilize food prices. Let the people get benefits. Not to mention, public opinion at this time. Much of it is in the hands of the reader. And since the four major families have hooked up with Yan Hong, under their instruction, many scholars in the city have come forward to say good things for Yan Hong and make up jokes to sing around, which naturally makes his reputation grow.

Yan Hong thinks about it for himself, and it is also interesting. At the beginning, he saved the Mo family in the Jiaofang Division, and Shaoxing saved Xu Hai, which was a good thing, and he really wanted to do good things, but all he left was infamy. On the contrary, this time I went to Jinan to give relief, although it was to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, but its purpose was to marry Sun Yuerong and Zhao'an thieves, which belonged to fake public and private interests, and there were a lot of things that could not be done along the way. Whether it is ridiculous with those White Lotus Immortals night and night, or the private Jade Lotus, it can be called absurd, but it has a good reputation.

At this time, Pego has to do it, and there is no time to talk about it. The captured prisoners were also put in prison and strictly guarded by brocade guards. Their homes were also temporarily sealed, and their families were detained with them, and they were not allowed to enter or leave without permission for torture. Yan Hong reorganized the team and returned to the governor's yamen, using it as a new line, and invited the heads of people from all walks of life and Shao Jing and others to discuss together. At this time, the main roads in the city were already occupied by the right guards and horses loyal to the imperial court, and the Jinyi guards sent some good men to patrol back and forth. In the governor's yamen, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing battalion led by He Bingzhong defended it, which was naturally temporarily blocked.

Yan Hong entered the yamen, invited everyone to sit down, and instructed the cook to make some dim sum pasta and bring it up to satisfy hunger. It didn't take long for the news flow price from all sides to come back, and the context of the whole chaos gradually became clear. In the past night, the teams inside and outside Jinan City are really rushing around, each with its own kit.

First of all, He Bingzhong, the general of the Beijing camp outside the city, had to send a secret letter from Yan Hong, informing him that the city would do it tonight and be ready to enter the city to respond at any time. He Bingzhong was meticulous, and after the order, the whole army was on guard, and he even sent someone to investigate the movement of the city gate, just afraid that something would go wrong. As a result, the scouts heard shouts and killings in the city, and after they returned, He Bingzhong ordered the whole army to enter the city.

Unexpectedly, when the soldiers and horses arrived outside the city gate, the soldiers who were originally defending the city had been attacked by the rebels, and most of them were killed, and the others also surrendered. Up and down the city gate, Wang Xuan's servants and rebels had already taken over, and under the command of Wang Xuan's son, they were guarding the city wall and preventing the Jingshi people outside the city from entering the city. After a few words, he turned his face and started his work.

Then He Bingzhong is the general of the Beijing camp, where has he received such a bird's spirit, regardless of the fact that he did not bring siege equipment, he ordered his subordinates to climb the city. If the White Lotus Sect has someone who understands the art of war, it is a great opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the soldiers and horses in the capital. However, what kind of tactics does Wang Xuan's son know? Even the White Lotus brothers around him are all unfamiliar with the art of war. Few of the rebels involved had actually fought, and they were just talking nonsense.

There were originally four mighty cannons on the head of the city, but these White Lotus Sectists had used firecrackers at most on weekdays, but they didn't have the opportunity to play with cannons. Gao Yanzong, Qin Xiong and others stole and sold ordnance and firearms, and they didn't dare to pull the artillery out of the cannon and sell it. After all, it was too eye-catching, and I just didn't want to live by selling it. Therefore, the first time these disciples used the cannon, they thought that it would be good if it was powerful, so they blindly filled it with more gunpowder, but the cannon exploded instead, failing to hurt half of the Beijing soldiers, but scared Zhang Cheng and those people who ran over from the city.
