Chapter 142: Gunpowder Conspiracy

Chang Feng realized a truth from Yang Chun's confession: treat your subordinates, and you must not use them to death if they are not useful.

If Lao Liao had transferred Yang Chun, a capable subordinate, back to Nansi earlier, and restored his identity, he would not have died unexpectedly.

Chang Feng said: "What you said is the reason for your treachery, collaborating with the enemy, and treason? Is it so important to restore the identity of the general flag of the Southern Division? Respect the righteousness of the family and the country? ”

Yang Chun asked rhetorically: "Chang Qianhu, you are wearing a flying fish, with embroidered spring on your waist, and you are in power." Let you go to the official camp to be a dark pile for ten years and hit iron for ten years, are you willing? ”

Chang Feng is stopped.

Wang Miaoxin on the side said: "Yang Chun, don't talk too far!" Talk about the Condor! ”

Yang Chun began to continue to confess.

Guan Gong and Yang Chun are worthy of being the most powerful hidden piles under Lao Liao. These two people have been lurking in the official camp for ten years, and finally broke into the Left Protector Hall of the Condor Society at the beginning of this year.

The Condor Society is divided into five Dharma Protector Halls: left, right, front, back, and center, which are not subordinate to each other and are independent.

Recently, the Zuo Protector Hall is planning two major events to cooperate with the little prince of Datong to enter the court.

The first big thing, they are ready to kill Emperor Hongzhi and all the high-ranking generals of the Ming army!

When the Ming army goes out, they will go to Deshengmen. In the event of a major war, the emperor will personally visit Deshengmen to see him off, and the three officials of the military department and the governor of the five armies will accompany him.

The Condor would buy a plot of land in the northern suburbs. A large mansion was built. The mansion is ten miles away from Desheng Gate.

Vultures will use the mansion as a cover to dig tunnels underground. That's right, it's the traditional art of Lao Dagjing - digging tunnels.

This tunnel was dug for four years, and finally dug in front of Desheng.

The foundation of the city wall of the capital is two zhang deep underground, and the tunnel cannot be dug into the city. But it's enough to dig in front of Desheng!

During the Chenghua period, the Ming army was corrupt. The Condor Society has been buying gunpowder one after another from the scum of the Ming army. In a few years, a whole hundred barrels were saved.

The gunpowder has been transported to the tunnel in front of Desheng.

Just wait for Emperor Hongzhi to come to Deshengmen in person and see off the soldiers. At that time, the vulture will send the dead to ignite the gunpowder and blow up the Hongzhi Emperor and the accompanying generals.

If it succeeds, the Ming Dynasty will be in chaos. The little prince's 50,000 iron cavalry in Datong had the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, capture the capital, and restore Dayuan.

But there's an element of uncertainty here. Emperor Hongzhi did not necessarily come to Deshengmen in person.

The tunnel is one foot above the ground. It is also unknown whether a hundred barrels of gunpowder can be ignited and whether it can kill Emperor Hongzhi.

So the Condor Society made a second plan. kidnap Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling.

The eyes and ears of the Condor Society are very wide, and they learned from the mouths of the little eunuchs who went out of the palace to do business that Emperor Hongzhi favored Empress Zhang and regarded the two brothers-in-law as his heart.

The emperor and empress are in the Ouchi and are not easy to kidnap. The two little demon kings who are demons in the capital all day long are very easy to catch.

If the plan to kill Emperor Hongzhi was not successful, they would threaten the Ming court with the lives of the Zhang brothers, so that the Ming court would agree to the little prince to "pay tribute" with an army of 50,000.

"Tribute" will turn into endless killing and looting along the way.

Even if he can't beat the capital, the little prince can grab a full load.

The feasibility of these two plans is unknown. But the vulture will be willing to do everything in its power to give it a try, and if it happens, won't the great cause of anti-Ming restoration be just around the corner?

Guan Gong and Yang Chun have already entered the Left Dharma Protector Hall. Discovered these two plans of the Condor.

Guan Gong immediately rushed to Liao's mansion and prepared to report to Liao Fanyong.

However, Yang Chun betrayed his identity to the Condor Society. The vulture will intercept Guan Gong halfway. also ruined it first and then killed Guan Gong's wife and daughter to vent his anger.

Yang Chun needs to eliminate his identity as a secret pile in Nansi so that he can go to other provinces with his remuneration to live a comfortable life.

There are two things that need to be done here. First, kill Lao Liao, who knows his identity; Second, destroy the roster of hidden piles.

Yang Chun has been working with Guan Gong for ten years, and he knows Guan Gong's joint code.

He informed the Condors of the code. Instigated the vultures to infiltrate the Liao Mansion with secret words and kill Liao Fanyong. It's a good trick to borrow a knife to kill.

It's easier to destroy the roster of dark piles. After Lao Liao's death, the only person who knew where the dark pile roster was hidden was the shopkeeper Gao.

Killing the shopkeeper Gao is equivalent to ruining the roster of dark piles!

Yang Chun deceived the Condor Society again, saying that the shopkeeper Gao knew about the two plans of the Condor Society.

So the Condor Society sent killers to kill the mouth of the shopkeeper in the Yuansheng Teahouse. It's still borrowing a knife to kill people.

Yang Chun confessed everything. Chang Feng felt his hairs stand on end!

He said to Wang Miaoxin: "We are fortunate to have caught Yang Chun." Otherwise, the consequences of the emperor's visit to Deshengmen in person will be unimaginable! ”

"Wang Qianhu, you immediately take the five hundred robes that stayed in Nansi to watch the night, and go to the Mabu Hall of the Military Department. Let him transfer the Beijing battalion and join our men in the north to search for the mansion of the Condor Society. Find the tunnels and gunpowder! ”

Wang Miaoxin arched her hand: "Yes!" ”

Chang Feng remembered that Li Guang told him about the disappearance of the two uncles of the small country.

Chang Feng asked Yang Chun: "Where are the two uncles of the small country locked up?" ”

Yang Chun shook his head slightly: "Have they been tied up?" I don't know where they came from. ”

Chang Feng questioned Yang Chun: "You don't know? ”

Yang Chun said: "I really don't know. When I left the control of the Condors and hid, they hadn't even started moving. ”

"They haven't acted yet, how can I know where the two little uncles are locked up?"

Now, the Condor's authentic gunpowder conspiracy is no longer possible.

But the plot to kidnap the two uncles has succeeded!

Chang Feng knows that the emperor is a Ming monarch. He will not betray his people because of family affection and let the little prince pay tribute.

At that time, the lives of the two uncles will definitely not be guaranteed!

Chang Feng stabilized his mind and said to Yang Chun: "I don't have any clues about Uncle Guo's whereabouts. Someone once told me that people are most awake when they are in pain. ”

"I'm going to give you a big punishment. You help me think about how to find the two uncles. ”

Yang Chun shouted: "I really said what Chang Qianhu should say!" Please spare me! ”

Before he finished speaking, a big silver needle had already been inserted into his Baihui acupoint!

Yang Chun shouted: "I have thought of a way!" There should be many people in the Condor Society's Left Dharma Protector Hall who are guarding the big mansion in the northern suburbs, waiting for the day after tomorrow to take action to blow up the emperor! ”

"If you capture their people and use the punishment you gave me on them, won't you be able to find out the whereabouts of the two uncles?"

The wind is like an initiation. He galloped all the way out of the edict prison, and rode a fast horse to catch up with Wang Miaoxin: "I'll go with you to find Ma Butang." ”

The two rushed to Ma Wensheng's mansion when they were young.

At the beginning, Chang Feng played Ma Wensheng's poverty to Emperor Hongzhi, and Emperor Hongzhi gave Ma Wensheng's family a lot of good furniture and porcelain. There is a lot of pomp and circumstance in the living room of Mafu.

The couplet inscribed by Yu Qian is still hanging on both sides of the central hall.

Chang Feng and Wang Miaoxin were in no mood to appreciate Yu Shaobao's calligraphy at the moment.

After a while, Ma Wensheng came to the lobby. He had just finished reading the official document and was about to fall asleep.

Ma Wensheng asked: "Chang Xiaoyou, what happened here late at night, right?" ”

Chang Feng said amazingly: "Ma Butang, someone wants to assassinate the emperor!" also kidnapped two small uncles! ”

He told Ma Wensheng the ins and outs of the matter.

Ma Wensheng listened to it and said, "I will immediately go to the palace to ask for the transfer of troops!" ”

Chang Feng said: "It's too late!" If you delay for a moment longer, the two uncles will be more dangerous. ”

Ma Wensheng said: "According to the rules, without the holy decree, I can only mobilize 3,000 garrisons. ”

Chang Feng said: "There are five hundred night robes I brought over!" Three thousand five hundred should be enough! ”

The crowd hurried out of the city from the Desheng Gate. Ma Wensheng transferred 3,000 defenders from Jiumen, and together with the 500 men and horses of the Southern Division, they searched the northern suburbs.

After searching for an hour, they found the big mansion that Yang Chun confessed to.

This time, Chang Feng did not act rashly, but first sent more than a dozen elite scouts from the Beijing camp to inquire about the situation near the big mansion.

After a while, the scout came back to report that the mansion was guarded by hundreds of black-clad men, all armed with scimitars.

Three thousand five against one, the advantage is mine!

Marven Sheng ordered everyone to quietly surround the mansion, and then launched an attack!

The more than 100 men in black are very powerful. But it is also no match for the Beijing battalion soldiers, who are tightly organized and dozens of times their own.

However, there were few captives among those men in black, and all of them had the heart of death, and they were indeed dead.

A quarter of an hour later, of the hundred Condor Order blackmen guarding the mansion, only three were captured, and the rest were killed.

As long as there is a living mouth, he can torture to extract confessions, follow the vine, and rescue the two uncles.

The entrance to the tunnel is very private. It's hard to get rid of the wind. Finding secret passages in the dark room is his job.

It took him half an hour to find the entrance to the tunnel in the back garden of the house.

This time, Chang Feng didn't risk going down the tunnel. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. The distress in Daguanying has made him deeply aware of this.

He didn't let Nanji's robe go down.

Nansi Paoze's life has always been more expensive than the gold of the Beijing battalion soldiers. In the case of the Condor Society, Chang Feng has already broken nine robes. He didn't want to see Nansi Paoze's wives and concubines become widows because of his orders.

He selected forty soldiers from the Beijing battalion. Jean Nansi robes lent them eighty scorpion crossbows.

The soldiers of the Beijing camp held crossbows left and right and went down the tunnel.

Chang Feng, Ma Wensheng, and Wang Miaoxin waited anxiously at the entrance of the tunnel.

Wang Miaoxin said: "The vultures in the tunnel will be evil, shouldn't the dog jump over the wall in a hurry and ignite the explosives in advance?" ”

Chang Feng looked in the direction of Desheng Gate: "Then it depends on whether there is a loud noise in the direction of Desheng Gate!" ”

Three years ago, at the foot of Mount Tai, he had seen the power of two hundred barrels of gunpowder exploding.

The tunnel from the mansion to Deshengmen was dug for four whole years, ten miles long. The Jingying brothers who went down to the tunnel could not reply to the news for a while.

Chang Feng didn't dare to delay his efforts and began to interrogate the three vultures.

The three gangsters have been taken to "can't die".

Chang Feng took a waist knife from the hand of a Beijing battalion soldier.

He ordered four stakes to be driven into the ground. Tied the limbs of one of the gangsters to four wooden stakes.

Then he raised his knife and slashed more than 20 times before he cut off the man's left arm.

Chang Feng's face was bloody, like a Yama in hell. He deliberately complained loudly: "The knives are all cut and curled." It's still easy to be a human being. ”

Then Chang Feng ordered several Nan Si Lishi to cut off the right arm and left and right legs of the gangster.

Chang Feng is killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys.

He asked the other two members of the Condor Society, "Do you know what a human being is?" ”

"They cut off their hands and feet, and plucked out their tongues, and plucked out their eyes, and cut off their ears. He planted a man in a big urn. Rice soup was fed to the tortured people every day to hang them. ”

The two Vulture members looked terrified.

Chang Feng pointed to one of the Condor members and ordered a Nansi general banner: "Go, cut off all ten of his toes." ”

This Nansi General Banner had a brother who had died in the Daguan camp the day before yesterday. He wished he could torture these goddamn Condors!

He walked over and cut off all ten of the Condor's toes with his knife.

The members of the Condor Society fainted twice, and all of them were woken up by cold water.

The surrounding Beijing battalion soldiers were horrified by the bloody tactics of the Jinyi Guard: a total of three prisoners were captured. I haven't asked anything yet. First cut off the limbs of one of them. The other chopped ten toes.

No wonder they all say that the people of Jinyiwei are the living king of Hades! No, they're not Hades, they're more like ghosts who eat people and don't spit out bones!

The plot of digging a tunnel to bury gunpowder refers to the real "gunpowder conspiracy" of the British Parliament in 1605. It is to dig tunnels and bury gunpowder. I know that there will be many readers who will question the validity of this paragraph. So let's talk about the historical facts of the reference. You can search for it. In addition, the reader questions the problem of reducing intelligence in the previous chapters. What you call "reducing intelligence" is actually "not cool enough". A young man of twenty-three years old, still indigenous. It is impossible to succeed in every errand without making a single mistake. What's more, the premise is that you haven't slept for a day or two in an extremely high state? Looking at the online article, everyone doesn't want to see the protagonist suffer a little setback. Let's be honest. I'm already very close. In Zhenshanhe, which was written in 18 years, the protagonist's wife was killed, his son was killed, and only one of his relatives and friends died before the finale. That's the abuse. A little frustration is not considered abusive.
