Chapter Eighty-Six: Rebellion and Control of the Sea (1)

"Shi Si Ban!"

The deputy general broke in from outside the tent and said in a hurry, "Cun Si Ban has left the camp and gone to Zhongshu Province!" ”

"What is he doing when he leaves?" Shi Xiushen hurriedly stood up, "How long has he been gone?" ”

"It's not too long, it's estimated that it's only three moments."

"If such a change occurs suddenly, you must be prepared......," Shi Xiu was worried and continued, "You lead the horse, and I will mobilize a team of elites to go to the gate of the dormitory to discuss the matter of the change!" ”

"The guards don't know our purpose, are they really willing to reconcile with you?"

Shi Xiushen said: "I have already thought of this. In the past, it was supposed to be the turn of the official to be on duty at night, but I took a leave of absence and asked someone from another department to replace me. Now that this is the right excuse, how can it not be followed instead of switching? ”

The deputy general couldn't help but admire: "Si Ban is far-sighted, he can anticipate people first, and his subordinates admire him!" ”

The two then went out of the camp together, selected two healthy horses from the stables, and temporarily ordered more than 30 elite soldiers, all of whom were ordered to put on their horses in armor, carry bows and swords, and make sufficient preparations for the fight, and galloped to the forbidden place.

The Beida camp in charge of Shi Xiushen was the farthest away from the emperor's dormitory, and they consciously walked for a long time, but they had not yet seen the wall of the palace gate, which made everyone feel a little nervous, and they all began to look around, trying to recognize the road from the dark night in case they went wrong.

"Fire!"

I don't know who suddenly shouted this, which startled Shi Xiushen, he strangled the horse hard, but the horse neighed in pain. While calming the horse, he looked ahead, and saw that there was indeed a fire on the Dongye Gate, and the light of the fire fluttered with the cold wind, burning the sky to blood red.

"The conspiracy has been made!" The adjutant general drew his sword and shouted, "I can't control so much now, the rebels are approaching the palace, hurry up and rescue the emperor!" ”

"Now that the forbidden is chaotic, we have no order to trespass, if we are not known by the guards and mistakenly think that the rebels are in the same party, why don't we kill each other?" The crowd hesitated.

The adjutant general was so anxious that his face turned red, and he shouted: "If you want to quell the rebellion, you can't care so much!" Crash into the main hall and see that the person who resisted is killed! ”

"Don't be so reckless!" Shi Xiushen pressed the shoulder of the adjutant general, glared angrily, and shouted at the top of his throat, "Let me ask you, how many teams of men and horses does the enemy army have?" What is the number of people? Through which doors did you enter? We don't know any of this, if we kill people indiscriminately and cooperate with friendly forces, how will the rebellion be quelled! ”

The deputy general didn't know how to deal with it, and after a moment of silence, he frowned and lamented: "It's a critical moment now, the guards will definitely not dare to let us into the palace, if we don't hit the door and break in, what else can we do!" Shi Siban, you have an idea! ”

Shi Xiushen didn't think about it, and said, "In this way, you go back to the camp to transfer reinforcements first." My brothers and I left here and went straight to the Dongye Gate. After all, the place has been breached, and the palace gate must be opened, but it is possible to take advantage of the chaos to touch in, front and back, and avoid direct contact with friendly forces. ”

The adjutant nodded quickly, hurried up, and went back to the camp along the same route; Shi Xiushen waved his hand and ordered everyone: "Let's go!" Then he hurriedly pulled out.

"Well, yes! Fuck, hurry up! Take this thing off! ”

From a distance, Zhang Tian seemed to be standing in a sea of fire, and the smoke almost blinded his eyes, forcing him to cough constantly. At his command, several soldiers set up wooden ladders, dodged the flying arrows, plucked a large wooden plaque from the side hall, and threw it on the ground.

"Throw it into the fire!"

He gave another stern order, and the soldiers had to move the plaque forward, and threw it into the fire, and with a crackling sound it was burned to the groundβ€”there were still wooden objects such as tables, chairs, cabinets, and so on, and bright yellow cloth and silk, and everything that could be burned was burned, and before them was a natural wall of fire.

The sergeants of the two sides leaned on this wall of fire and fired arrows at each other, and neither dared to take a step forward, so there was a stalemate for a long time.

"How many centaurs are there on the other side?!" Zhang Tian looked at the situation ahead and said to the henchmen beside him.

"General, I just went to the high place to see, the soldiers of the East Palace have arrived, and there are about more than 100 people."

"It's no way to go on like this!" Another person persuaded, "We and others are very few in manpower, and the prime minister is still standing by and refusing to send a single soldier to help." If this stalemate continues, when the enemy army gathers, you and I will die without a place to be buried! The enemy army does not know how many of us are, so we should take advantage of its uncertain advance and retreat to extinguish the fire and attack in a big way, as long as we enter the dormitory and kidnap the emperor, everything can be solved! ”

When Zhang Tian heard this, he seemed to have a lot of confidence, and he strode forward, and he was about to call on everyone to fight forward. Unexpectedly, a cold arrow came out of the wall of fire and flew out of his cheek, so frightened that he didn't even dare to move his feet an inch.

"Forget it, forget it," Zhang Tian took a few steps back and shook his head again and again, "The enemy army is so strong that it is difficult to resist, so it is better to resist here." Bear with me, Niu Gong's reinforcements should arrive soon. ”

Zhang Tianan sat on the stone pier and commanded loudly, hoping that the situation would stabilize like this, and he would have peace of mind. Not wanting the fire to gradually get smaller, several rebels were also shot dead by officers and soldiers, and their hearts became more and more afraid. He stood up and was about to have the wooden ladder burned, but he heard the sound of murder behind him.

He wandered around and saw Shi Xiushen suddenly appear in front of the Dongye Gate, riding a tall horse, with a pair of deep eyes shining in the dark night, shining directly into the light, which was terrifying.

"Kill the thief! Kill the thief! Under a loud shout, the elite soldiers led by Shi Xiushen rushed into the palace and fought with the rebels; Zhang Tian hurriedly got on the horse, and before he could dispatch, his subordinate rebels had already collapsed, coming and going, chaotic, not forming a formation, and collapsing in an instant.

When the officers and men on the opposite side heard that the friendly army had arrived and that the rebels had been defeated, they marched forward one after another, killing the enemy when they saw it, and competing for military merit. Seeing that the general trend was gone, Zhang Tian hurriedly put his body on his horse, whipped him fiercely, and ran towards the door; Shi Xiushen looked carefully, hurriedly waved the horsewhip, and instructed the military horse to block it.

The soldiers understood his meaning and chased after him as if flying. Zhang Tian got out of the dormitory and ran out of the road with all his might, cold arrows were still flying around him, he was so panicked and anxious that he actually fell from his horse; The forbidden army arrived together, grabbed military merits, and broke his body into thousands of pieces in a moment, leaving only his head and returning to the army to Shi Xiushen.

Shi Xiushen ordered someone to wrap his head and hurriedly extinguished the fire with the soldiers, but unfortunately a side hall had been burned beyond recognition, and only ruins remained.
