Chapter Seventy-Four: Women (2-in-1)
Erzhu Ying'e carried a bow and a knife, and shouted for the guards to follow her out of the house to kill the thief.
The scribe stopped at the door and shouted:
"Your Highness, you can't go out."
Yang Su had a headache about this: I not only have to be busy defending against traitors, but also have to coax your delicate willfulness?
But you can't let it go, this is the favorite of the prince.
Yang Yu stepped forward quickly, and patiently persuaded him:
"Your Highness, the walls of the Bohai Royal Mansion are towering and the walls are strong, and it is the best policy to defend it with personal guards."
It turned out that Gao Huan and Gao Cheng's father and son were extremely insecure in Luoyang City, not only built the courtyard wall extremely high, but also had a circle of low walls next to it, which allowed the guards to stand on the low wall and shoot arrows outside.
In Yang Su's view, going out at this time and being accidentally scattered by the fleeing crowd is the real disaster.
Erzhu Ying'e also has her own plans, and she retorted:
"If the family members of the forbidden army are captured and forced, the palace will inevitably change, and we will be trapped in the palace, what good will it do in major events! Now that the thieves are scattered, at this time, I will lead the guards out of the house, and I can break them one by one! ”
With Yang Su's intelligence, of course he understands the truth, but why did he risk the people of Miyagi?
According to the calculation of time, Gao Cheng will be able to arrive in these two days, and then he only needs to build a banner, feign a momentum, or lie that he is a pioneer, and the thieves think that Gao Huan's army will go south and will inevitably collapse.
Yang Su continued to persuade each other hard, but she annoyed Er Zhu Ying'e, her tone was extremely unpolite, and she was a little proud:
"I am the daughter of the Great General of Tianzhu, I used to be the Empress of Great Wei, and now I am a family member of the prince, you are just a staff member under my husband's command, and you dare to beak my decision! If you will keep it, I will go and kill the thief. ”
After that, the guards in the courtyard shouted:
"My father once broke Ge Rong's million-strong army with 7,000 people, although there were many thieves in Luoyang, they were just servants and slaves, and now they divided their troops to loot everywhere, and it was easy to break. Who of you have served under the command of Tianzhu, stand up, and work with me Zhu Ying'e to kill thieves and make contributions! ”
His words, while analyzing the enemy's situation, also inspired people with meritorious deeds, and everyone responded in an instant.
Seeing that such a noble woman dared to go out to kill thieves, if she retreated at this time, how could she hold her head up in the future.
Er Zhu Ying'e saw that the crowd was excited, so she said to Yang Su:
"If Yang Changshi insists on guarding the palace, I will share some of your manpower."
Yang Su sighed and said helplessly:
"The matter has come to this, how can the servant disobey the hearts of the people, and I am willing to use this order to kill the thief with His Highness and repay the kindness of the son."
When Erzhu Ying'e heard this, she raised her voice and praised:
"Good! Yang Changshi is worthy of his husband's trust! When I heard about the battle of Han Ling, Mr. took the lead as a scribe, and was injured several times, but he did not retreat, and everyone in the world said that the benevolent person will be brave, and when I saw it today, it was true! ”
The previous remarks were frivolous, but the situation was really urgent, and it was a last resort.
Er Zhu Ying'e, as half of the pillow person, of course knows Gao Cheng's reliance on Yang Su, and he assists in handling all government affairs, both large and small, and is deeply trusted.
Now that it is in line with her wishes, she naturally does not hesitate to praise it and save some face for Yang Su.
Yang Su recalled the battle of Hanling, his fierce appearance of not fearing death, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of strength in his heart: At the beginning, I was not afraid of the elite cavalry under the command of Er Zhu Zhao, but now I am just a group of slaves making trouble, what is there to fear!
He snatched the long knife from the hand of a house slave and saluted solemnly to Erzhu Ying'e:
"Please also ask Your Highness to drive!"
The guards in the courtyard echoed one after another.
Er Zhu Ying'e immediately ordered the servants in the palace to strictly guard the house, and she led Yang Yu and more than 400 people from the palace guards to flock out.
Because Gao Cheng went north to Jinyang and transferred all the horses in the house, Er Zhu Ying'e could only walk with everyone, which was also the reason why Yang Yu chose to be trapped instead of breaking out of the city.
When Zhu Ying'e led a team of more than 400 people away from the Bohai Palace, she really saw what kind of situation Luoyang is like today.
The slaves of the king of the sect can still be led by the master, and they still remember to search for the families of the forbidden army.
And those scoundrels in the market got the blades, and after they dispersed, they had no scruples about burning and looting everywhere.
Killing the thieves all the way, from a distance, Erzhu Ying'e saw someone bullying the woman in front of her, with her back to everyone, and she couldn't see the ugly face, but the lewd laughter was extremely harsh.
She was furious in her heart, and she filled the bowstring, and after a little aiming, the arrow went off the string, and a bloody flower bloomed in the back of the man's heart.
The woman was so frightened that she picked up her torn clothes to cover her body, and stared at the oncoming crowd with blank eyes.
"You go back to the house quickly, close the door, and the army of rebellion will arrive immediately."
Erzhu Ying'e only explained one sentence, and then passed by the woman, who had witnessed her son being thrown to death, she knew very well that the woman was helpless at this time, but now is not the time for relief, there are more people waiting for her to rescue.
Turning a lane, Erzhu Ying'e met hundreds of thieves escorting a group of old and weak women and children to the direction of Miyagi.
The women in the team were still in good condition, and it was obvious that those kings wanted to subdue the hearts of the forbidden soldiers and restrain the house slaves from humiliation, but under the drive, it was inevitable that some people would whip and whip them.
Erzhu Ying'e didn't know how to march and fight, so she only ordered her guards to rush forward with her, and she stretched her bow as she ran, and every time the bowstring fluttered, someone would always fall to the ground.
After shooting four arrows in succession, the blades of the two sides were handed over, and there was no longer a place for bows and arrows, so Erzhu Ying'e threw the longbow to the personal maid who accompanied her out of the house, and pulled out her waist knife and stepped forward to slash and kill.
The thief who came in front of her seemed to despise her as a woman, raised her knife and slashed, but was avoided by Erzhu Ying'e sideways, and with a knife up, the blade was sharp, and actually cut off the arm of the person holding the knife, accompanied by the thief's miserable howl, blood sprayed her face.
Erzhu Ying'e returned the knife and slashed at the man's neck again, and a head flew up.
How could these royal servants be the opponents of the royal guards when they were in a similar number, and the families of the forbidden army who were escorted immediately rose up to resist.
Their hands were bound with ropes, and in desperation, they either stretched out their feet and kicked the thief in the back, or flew over and knocked him down with his shoulder.
Under the attack of the two phases, the thieves broke up and wanted to flee, and the guards pursued and killed.
Seeing this, Erzhu Ying'e shouted to the maidservant behind her:
"Wan'er, bring me the longbow."
Looking back, the servant girl who had been brave enough to follow had already sat down on the ground in fright when she cut off the thief's head, her lips trembling, and she was colorless.
snatched the longbow and bent the bow again to shoot several arrows in succession, and Erzhu Ying'e shouted:
"King Gao's army has arrived in Luoyang, and those who descend will kneel to avoid death!"
Seeing that they were stuck by the pursuers, and hearing that Jinyang's army had arrived, the remaining hundreds of thieves rushed to their knees and begged for mercy:
"I'm down! I fell! ”
"We are just slaves, obeying the orders of the lord, and asking the female general to spare her life."
Erzhu Ying'e did not embarrass them, but tied them with ropes that bound the women and children, and handed over the collected blades to the women and children for self-defense, and asked them to escort the people at the back of the team.
Er Zhu Ying'e found a person among the women and children who was familiar with the distribution of the forbidden army's family members to guide the way.
wiped out several bandits in a row, and Er Zhu Ying'e captured many Yuan Wei clans.
The families of the forbidden army who were rescued behind him were even more powerful.
Just as she was about to continue her search for the traitor, Erzhu Ying'e received a report from the detectives who had escaped from the ranks of the Emperor of the Sect, saying that thousands of thieves were heading in the direction of Jingming Temple.
Jingming Temple is located in the south of Miyagi, and the residences of Gao Qian, Gao Longzhi, Li Yuanzhong and others are all near Jingming Temple.
In order to intercept and kill the thieves who escorted the families of the forbidden army, Er Zhu Ying'e went west from Tongtuo Street, and at this time was already in the vicinity of Luoyang City, southwest of Miyagi.
There are many forbidden troops who have settled in this place.
As a last resort, Erzhu Ying'e assigned a hundred guards to Yang Yu to command, and he escorted the families of the forbidden army into the palace, and asked Lou Zhao to send reliable personnel to support, while he led less than 300 people to turn east and go straight to the direction of Jingming Temple.
Sikong Gaoqian's mansion was besieged by Yuan Jian and others who led the family slaves, but Yuan Xiu and Yuan Bao Torch were the only ones to be seen.
Qinghe Wang Yuangan shouted at the house:
"The palace city fell, Lou Zhao gave the head, and Gao Cheng was ambushed and killed by Hu Sichun.
"The Son of Heaven issued an edict that only the Gao father and son should be punished, and the rest of the people would not be punished.
"He Bayue has already been sent out of Guanlongdong by the secret edict, and the division of King Qin of Henan has also heard the wind, you can't wait to open the door quickly and welcome the king!"
Li Yuanzhong was stepping on the ladder and scolded:
"Yuan Gan! Don't lie to confuse the people! Lou led the army to close the palace gate, how can you get in!
"The prince led the army south, and the fierce generals under his command, such as Gao Aocao and others, all have the courage of ten thousand people, Hu Sichun is just a flattering person, how can he dare to compete with the prince!
"King Gao has millions of troops in Jinyang, and the likes of He Bayue only dare to rely on the danger of Xiongguan to be the dog of the household, if he is to take care of the family and the courtyard, he can survive for some years, once he goes east, King Gao waving his army to the south, and he can take advantage of the situation to include Guanxi."
Li Yuanzhong's words were not so much to scold Yuan Yan, but actually intended to stabilize people's hearts.
Of course, it is inevitable to boast between the words, at least Gao Huan doesn't know that he has millions of troops in Jinyang, and Gao Cheng didn't take Gao Aocao south, but who made Gao Aocao have the highest prestige among these house slaves.
Although Gao Qian lost his position as a servant, the servants and slaves in the family have been in battle for a long time.
After the Heji Uprising, he fought several battles with the Wei army, and then attacked and occupied Xindu with Gao Qian.
Later, Gao Qian was transferred to civilian positions, and these people were separated from the army and brought to Luoyang for resettlement.
Li Yuanzhong learned that Gao Longzhi had entered the palace to deliver the news, and heard that the clan was in turmoil, so he brought his family and Gao Longzhi's family to find Gao Qian.
The two wanted to go to the Bohai Palace, but they got the news that the thieves had left the palace.
lest he encounter a traitor on the road, so he strictly guards the Sikong Mansion.
When Li Yuanzhong retorted, the senior cadres on the side also threatened:
"King Gao can defeat the 200,000 allied army of the Erzhu clan in Hanling with 30,000 steps, and now he has a million troops and looks at the world, you and others follow Yuan Ji and Yuan Xiu to rebel, have you ever thought about whether you can withstand the anger of King Gao afterwards, the Son of Heaven is angry and ambushes millions of corpses, King Gao is angry, and the mountains and rivers are shaking! Heaven and earth change color! ”
This was a bit disrespectful, but Li Yuanzhong didn't care, he echoed:
"King Gao is benevolent, don't punish you for ignorance, if you are obsessed, you are only afraid of disaster to the clan!"
Seeing that he couldn't win the verbal battle, Yuan Jian immediately ordered the servants to rush up and engage with the Gao slaves in a short battle by building a human wall.
Although the Gao slaves were brave, they had few blades, and many of them could only meet the enemy with sticks, and they were defeated for a while.
It turned out that the Yuan clan had been running Luoyang for many years, during which there were several turmoils, and there were many weapons hidden in the palace of King Zong.
And how could Gao Qian and others secretly hide the blade to arouse Gao Huan's suspicions:
"Luoyang has Lou Zhao in control of the forbidden army, what do you want to do when you hide the armor privately." ’
Escorted by a hundred guards, Yang Su led the families of the forbidden army to hurriedly arrive outside the palace gate.
"Lou leads! High Waiter! Chen Sima! ”
Yang Yu shouted:
"I am Yang Zunyan, a traitor searching for the family of the forbidden army, rescued by the royal guards, I am ordered by His Royal Highness to escort everyone, and please open the city gate quickly."
Lou Zhao and Chen Yuankang followed the prestige, and sure enough, it was Yang Su, seeing that there were only nearly 100 strong people around him, and the rest were all old and weak women and children, they actually believed a little bit in their hearts.
But out of prudence, the door was not opened.
Yang Su was in a hurry, and ordered the old and weak behind him:
"Wait a minute, call the names of your relatives to the palace wall."
For a while, everyone in the city was chanting the names of their sons, husbands, and fathers.
"That's my mother! It's really my mother! ”
"My grandfather is here, and my wife and children are also here!"
"Mother! I'm here! ”
The palace walls were also in a state of chaos:
"General, open the door, it's really my family outside!"
"General, please open the door!"
Lou Zhao and Chen Yuankang were difficult to ride the tiger, and seeing that they didn't agree, they really wanted to cause a mutiny in the forbidden army, so Chen Yuankang had to shout under the wall:
"Don't panic, Zunyan, you come close first, and after I check, I will let you enter the city, it is a matter of everyone's lives, please forgive me."
The palace walls were brought up and down, and the riots were stopped.
Chen Yuankang walked down the palace wall, ordered someone to open a gap in the palace door, and shouted at Yang Su:
"Zunyan is coming."
Waiting for Yang Su to run into the palace, Chen Yuankang confirmed:
"Is Zunhiko being coerced?"
"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious, what you do today is all assigned by Queen Erzhu, and please let the family members of the forbidden army enter as soon as possible."
Chen Yuankang finally put his mind at ease, opened the city gate, and beckoned the family members of the forbidden army to enter.
Yang Yu also met with Lou Zhao, who walked down the palace wall:
"Lou led the army, the traitors are going to Jingming Temple, Empress Erzhu only led more than 300 people to the rescue, and asked Lou to lead the army to quickly send the forbidden army to help the war."
Lou Zhao looked at the soldiers who were anxious to find their families when he heard this, and he was in trouble for a while.
I don't know if it was Han Ling's old incident that gave Yang Yu courage, or if he was shocked by Er Zhu Ying'e, he actually took the initiative to ask:
"I will lead a hundred guards first, and ask Lou to lead the army to calm the hearts of the people, and then send troops quickly."
"What kind of courage you are a scribe!"
Lou Zhao glared fiercely, and immediately called Chen Yuankang, handed him the tiger talisman, and explained:
"Please also ask Mr. Chen to defend Miyagi with his heart, and I will lead the palace guards to the rescue."
Chen Yuankang refused to accept it, and persuaded Yang Su again.
Lou Zhao snorted coldly:
"Mr. Chen, is it true that Lou is a coward? I have been in battle with King Gao for a long time, and those who retreat today are only afraid that they are plotting.
"How can you compare with me in the matter of leading the army to rush and kill, not to mention, I am a general in the army, am I not as good as Ah Hui's wife and concubine!"
