"Vertical son dare!"

Looking at Liu Fangzhou, who was standing beside Xia Yiyu with a smug face, Liu Fangming's face was full of anger after being betrayed, if people's eyes could kill, then Liu Fangzhou must have been cut by a thousand knives.

Liu Fangming couldn't figure out why his half-brother would choose to betray him, and he instructed his cronies to put those officers who had been in contact with Xia Yiyu under house arrest before the incident, but he never suspected Liu Fangzhou from beginning to end.

Although he didn't want to see this younger brother since he was a child, Liu Fangzhou has always behaved very obediently in front of him when he grew up, so he trusted this younger brother very much, and also allocated him some military power.

Thinking of the military power that Liu Fangzhou had mastered, Liu Fangming's eyes couldn't help but flash a little cold, since Liu Fangzhou betrayed him and chose to take refuge in Xia Yiju, it proved that the two of them must be ready to guard against the Ming army.

If the Ming army thought that he, Liu Fangming, deliberately agreed to surrender and invited Jun into the urn, then he would really be finished.

Not only will the Qing court not tolerate him as a traitor, but even if the truth is revealed, the Ming army will be angry at his incompetence and will not wait to see him.

In just a few seconds, Liu Fangming remembered a lot of things, and Liu Fangzhou, who was standing next to Xia Yiju, also said at this time:

"Eldest brother, back then, you turned your back on the tyrannical Ming and returned to the court, the court did not pursue your past, and still handed over the military power of Ningxia to you, and now the court is in trouble, how can you abandon the court for your own selfish desires?"

Look, as soon as he came up, he characterized Liu Fangming as a rebel and thief who mutinied for his own selfish desires, and before Liu Fangming could defend himself, he continued to shout:

"As a certain Liu bloodline, how can you sit back and watch my Liu family become a chaotic minister and thief because of your actions alone, if you still have a trace of conscience, you don't want to implicate the children in the family, quickly disarm and surrender!"

"Whew! You dog stuff inside and out!"

Liu Fangming was furious, he cursed Liu Fangzhou loudly, and led his own soldiers and subordinates back to the palace, closing the gate tightly, intending to rely on the high walls around the yamen to defend it.

Seeing that Liu Fangming chose to resist stubbornly, Liu Fangzhou gritted his teeth, hugged his fist to Xia Yiyu and said: "Lord Governor, since Liu Fangming has chosen to resist stubbornly, there is no need to remember the old feelings anymore, and the lowly position is willing to personally attack the government and annihilate the rebels!" ”

Xia Yihe nodded, agreed to his request, and then said approvingly: "You distinguish between right and wrong, and resolutely draw a clear line with the anti-thief, this official is very pleased, after the siege of Nanchang is lifted, this official will show your merits to the imperial court, and it is not a problem to be knighted." ”

"Thank you, Governor, for your help." Liu Fang was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked him.

The reason why Liu Fangzhou chose to betray his brother Liu Fangming is that the relationship between the brothers is not as close as it seems.

He Liu Fangming is the eldest son of the family, and he has been loved by thousands of people since he was a child, although he did not abuse his younger brothers who gave birth to concubines, he was also bullied to the end.

Moreover, Liu Fangzhou, as the second son, has been jealous and hostile to Liu Fangming since he was a child, but these emotions are well hidden by him.

His own character has become introverted because of his birth status and his mother's teachings, and he knows how to forbear, and when he faced Liu Fangming since he was a child, he would hold back what he really thought in his heart and cater to him in every possible way, so he won Liu Fangming's trust.

After Liu Fangming decided to mutiny, he also quickly got the news, and it happened that Xia Yiyu had also secretly sent someone to contact him, and the two hit it off and decided to plan it.

Before the mutiny, Xia Yihe promised that as long as Liu Fangming was killed, he would be promoted as the new Ningxia commander-in-chief, and he would be promoted to the rank of knight, Liu Fangzhou used his relationship in the army to install his own people at the three city gates, and after the Ming army entered the city, the suspension bridge on the moat was raised to catch turtles in an urn.

In order not to startle the snake in advance, Xia Yiyu even abandoned the defenders of Nanchang City, and let them be buried in the night attack of the Ningxia army, and the two of them had to quickly capture and kill Liu Fangming after Liu Fangming attacked the palace, as long as Liu Fangming died, Liu Fangzhou could use his special identity to obtain the support of some soldiers.

The gaze retracted, and after getting Xia Yiyu's permission, Liu Fangzhou commanded his subordinates to launch a fierce attack on the yamen, they tried to knock the gate open and kill it directly, but the soldiers inside the wall resisted stubbornly, and they crossed the high wall to shoot anyone who tried to get close to the city gate.

Chapter 240: The Battle Begins

Although both sides are from Ningxia, at the time of life and death, neither of them disregarded the feelings of their fellow villagers and mercilessly took each other's lives.

At the same time, the Ming army that saw the code and launched an attack poured into the three gates of Yonghe, Hue, and Jinxian, and Su Yan did not take the lead and put himself in a dangerous situation, but ordered the military staff general Ma Xin to enter Yonghe, Jiangxi Governor Zhang Mingyang to enter Hue, and Su Dingyuan to enter Jinxian.

After the former army crossed the moat and entered the urn city, they did not venture deep into the city, but controlled the city tower behind the urn city for the first time, and those who guarded the city tower Liu Fangzhou saw that the Ming army wanted to seize control, and directly drew their swords to each other, seeing that the deeds were revealed, someone in the crowd shouted:

"The Ming army has killed people, brothers do it!"

When the words fell, Liu Fangzhou's people waved their waist knives and slashed at the Ming army, and the rest of the Ningxia army did not know why, but seeing that their own people were fighting with the Ming army, they were influenced by the local concept, and they also followed the knife to join the battlefield.

Although the Ming army had already prepared for the Ningxia army to rebel, they were still caught off guard at first, but they soon reacted and quickly launched a counterattack to seize control of the city gate.

And the Ming army who was still in the urn city was not willing to be lonely, and they shot at the Qing army on the wall of the urn city, intending to suppress the Qing army's firepower.

Although the Ningxia army is a proud and fierce general who came out of the frontier, they are still slightly inferior to the Ming army under Su Yan in terms of force, especially in the face of the Russian garrison, the latter's two-handed axe cut down the Ningxia soldiers, screaming and scattering.

After a fight, the Ming army only took a short time to seize the city gate, they quickly climbed the city wall, the city wall of the stubborn Ningxia army to clear out, those Ningxia soldiers are not the first iron fools, seeing that the Ming army's combat effectiveness is beyond their imagination, directly chose to surrender.

From the issuance of the code to the Ming army's seizure of all control of the three city gates, it took less than two quarters of an hour, and those Ningxia soldiers who chose to surrender in time looked at the Ming army entering the city in fear, and couldn't help but regret why they fought with them, obviously the task they received was to cooperate with the Ming army to enter the city and seize the city of Nanchang.

Some of the more astute people recalled the faces of the people who first clamored to fight with the Ming army, and now they reacted, those people did not seem to be their own brothers, but were temporarily transferred, but their vision was dim at that time, and they could not recognize their faces for a while, so they would subconsciously participate in the war.

Thinking about this, they seemed to understand something terrible, but now they realized that it was too late, and they were already prisoners of the Ming army.
