Chapter Five Hundred and Sixteenth National Thief, Traitor, Prostitute (6)
The guards in the entire palace were reduced from one thousand to one hundred, and then Liu Yu felt that the fire was finally about to burn.
Liu Yu stood at the height of the palace and looked out of the palace, but there was no movement at all. He couldn't help but wonder, was he worried that Niu Lu and Ling Hui were both ready to sit and wait for death but were not ready to resist?
"You are a great opportunity. If you don't seize it, I'm not worth it for you." Liu Yu murmured to himself.
After waiting for about half an hour, Liu Yu guessed that Lu Chu'er and Qu Zhu had succeeded before he received the report, saying that a large number of people with unknown identities came to the direction of the palace.
Liu Yu yawned and said, "I'm finally here. Get ready to fight!"
At this time, just midnight, Liu Yu knew about it. Niu Lu did not dare to act in advance to avoid alarming Liu Yu, the big snake. Niu Lu probably did not expect Liu Yu to move forward to before Zi Shi.
A large number of soldiers from the garrison camp with torches rushed towards all directions of the palace. Before they reached the door, they carried logs and equipment to hit the door, and the momentum was extremely powerful. However, at this time, no guard outside the palace could see it, but the people in the garrison camp could not care about anything else. Time was life for them. If they could not calm down the incident before the palace guards got the news and rushed back, they would be the ones who were unlucky.
"Assassin in the palace threatens His Majesty. Hurry up and attack in to protect His Majesty!"
Niu Lu came with a horse, full of heroic looks, and what the soldiers were calling were willing to hear. Although the soldiers suspected that this was not to suppress the bandits, but to be bandits. But since it was Niu Lu's order, the relationship with them afterwards was very small.
"Bang...bang..."
After only two sounds, the gate of the palace was already knocked open, but a louder sound broke out.
"boom!"
It seemed that the entire ground was trembling, and Liu Yu felt shaking when he stood on the small building. The huge sound accompanied by the surging fire, the dozens of soldiers in the garrison battalion rushed in front were covered in fire, and many of them were directly exposed to the huge explosion.
This sound also cut through the peaceful night of Dongning Mansion. Then, fireworks were sent to the sky everywhere in the city, and a large number of New Army soldiers outside the city had already exerted their efficient mobility. The pioneer team climbed up along the city wall and dealt with a few soldiers from the city defense camp. They quickly occupied several gates of Dongning Mansion. The gates opened, and the new cavalry rushed into the city with one horse.
The city was filled with fire, and Niu Lu, who was still in shock, felt as if he had fallen into a trap.
"Vice Niu Du, what do we do?" The soldiers came over to ask Niu Lu for his advice while putting out the fire for the fire soldiers.
Niu Luxin said with a straitor: "Hongshu means death, kill us!"
Niu Lu's order received little response. His soldiers were already scared by the sudden explosion, and the palace was as unaware of the gates of ghosts. Niu Lu jumped off his horse, pulled out his knife and rushed forward. Under his leadership, the soldiers rushed into the palace from the direction of the main gate. When they arrived at the main courtyard of the palace, there was still no sign of the imperial guards in front of them.
At this time, a very high voice came: "You have been surrounded, put down your weapons and surrender quickly. You have been surrounded..."
The figure did not see it, but the sound rang over and over again like a death talisman. Niu Lu put his sword across and pointed at the direction of the palace and shouted: "Run!"
The soldiers were driven by a clamor and rushed to the unknown headquarters. Liu Yu stood on the small building and sighed slightly, and at the same time, gunfire sounded everywhere.
In order to succeed, Niu Lu brought all the soldiers of the garrison battalion to him. However, some of them died and some escaped due to the previous explosion. There were also seven or eight hundred people in the Shaguo Palace. However, in front of Liu Yu's most powerful New Army Guards, these seven or eight hundred people still had no advantage.
Liu Yu set up a surround. When the enemy fell into the trap, he would naturally not give Niu Lu and his soldiers a chance to breathe. This killing was also an opportunity for Liu Yu to experiment with some extreme tactics. Tung oil was sprinkled on the ground, and some phosphorus powder. When it was ignited, the whole yard seemed to have entered a sea of fire. Although the temperature caused by the phosphorus powder was not high, the visual and psychological impact caused was very huge for these soldiers who had never been on the battlefield. Screams and crying resounded inside and outside the palace, so that they could achieve the effect of self-defeat. When Niu Lu turned his mind, there were not many soldiers standing by him, and even he himself was on fire.
At this time, the gunfire was still not interrupted, and the soldiers continued to fall. Niu Lu no longer cared about integrity and honor. He threw the knife and fled towards the door while untiing his fire clothes. Unfortunately, he left the palace gate and had not yet walked out of the corner of the street, the new cavalry who came to support from outside the city had arrived. Niu Lu and some soldiers who had no time to escape were not captured in one net.
Niu Lu was lying on the ground, no longer hiding hope for life. He felt a little annoyed, and only regretted that he had not committed suicide by decisively just now, which made him become a prisoner. With Liu Yu's cruelty, he also knew that he would be worse than death.
At this time, Liu Yu's voice also came from behind him: "I said, Lao Niu, you are too slow. I have been waiting for you all night and I have only seen you now. You have made me wait for you so hard!"
Niu Lu was grabbed by someone with his hair, facing Liu Yu head-on. At this time, Liu Yu smiled relaxed and happy, as if the killing just now had nothing to do with him.
"Pooh!"
Although he was extremely afraid of Liu Yu, the murderous devil, Niu Lu still showed his unyielding integrity at this time.
Liu Yu bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Niu, for giving me such a good opportunity. It seems that none of the people behind Brother Niu can escape tonight. I thank you for your family."
Niu Lu shouted: "Rebel thief, you have the ability to kill me, and one person does things, and this is done by me, Niu Zhongxiao and has nothing to do with others!"
Liu Yu curled his lips and said, "Niu Zhongxiao? Humph, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved both. You accept your fate! Pull it out and separate his tongue first. I am upset when I hear him!"
Niu Lu and the soldiers of the garrison camp were dragged down, while Liu Yu continued to stay in the palace to stay in charge. At this time, a search operation was being carried out in the city. Not only was the prefect and the girls' academy going to suffer, but some Confucians and officials who were related to Yu Hui were not spared. At the same time, other counties and cities in Huaibei Province outside Dongning Prefecture were also carrying out a search operation. Liu Yu temporarily only compressed the shock surface in the central and western regions of Huaibei Province. Time was tight. As long as the surrounding forces were removed, it would not rekindle in a short period of time.
Now that Liu Yu wants to go south to pacify southern Xinjiang, he must first stabilize the internal situation. At this time, the only people in the Shun Dynasty who were worried about Liu Yu were the only people of King Su Zhe of Chu. Because many of Su Zhe’s people were secretly, Liu Yu also knew that it was impossible to achieve success in one fell swoop. Today is a shocking moment.
Overnight, there were hundreds of houses in Dongning Prefecture that were seized, and these families were the backbone of the Confucian forces in Huaibei. Among them, Sun Weiqian and his disciples had the largest number, and there were more than 2,000 people detained overnight. This was just a number in Dongning Prefecture. Adding to the people detained in other cities, Liu Yu calculated it in a general way and the number would be close to 4,000.
Liu Yu immediately felt like an executioner, causing a huge persecution to the cultural circle of the Dashun Dynasty. Thinking of this, Liu Yu suddenly smiled as if he was self-deprecating. In the face of power, there was only power but no justice.
While the night was not over and the riots in the city were not over, Liu Yu did not leave the palace, but was with his own woman. Since Qi'er became emperor, two large-scale killings have occurred around her. Although Qi'er was also afraid at this time, she calmed down when she saw Liu Yu.
It was not until dawn that the entire Dongning Mansion had calmed down, and Liu Yu walked out of the palace and prepared to see the changes in coming to Dongning Mansion that night.
"There are several Confucian scholars in the city who could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide." Qu Zhu summarized the information and reported to Liu Yu.
"Oh, where are Sun Weiqian and Ling Daoqi?"
"They were fine, they just said that this matter had nothing to do with them. They said that it was General, you wronged the good man."
Liu Yu smiled and said, "What a bad saying, "I'm wronged to accuse a good person. This general has always been such a person. They didn't know it on the first day, so there is no need to reason with them. By the way, what's going on in the girls' academy?"
Qu Zhu said: "The students in the major academies in the city are mostly Confucian children, and most of the incidents last night were involved."
Liu Yu nodded to show that he understood that this is easy to understand. Huaibei Province's cultural industry is developed, which is promoted by local Confucians, and their children will naturally inherit the careers of their parents and continue to develop. Liu Yu is a one-stop shop this time. If Liu Yu really wants to exterminate the clan, then Huaibei Province and even the Dashun Dynasty will not be able to revitalize again in a short period of time.
"Old Qu, I'll ask you students from the Female Academy to give you the answers to be more accurate."
"The female school students are temporarily detained in the academy and left to the death."
Liu Yu smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go and see them first."
Qu Zhu asked, "Why don't the general deal with Ling Daoqi and other bandit leaders first?"
When Liu Yu heard the word "bandit leader", he smiled naturally, and then the smile on his face became a little cold. Speaking of which, Niu Lu's rebellion was forced out by him. But this also shows that the power of King Su Zhe of Chu gave up the expansion method from top to bottom from Chang'an City, and was preparing to surround Chang'an with local forces.
"After all people are caught, will they still have wings and fly? In fact, what I want to see most is whether the fierce girls yesterday met again today. Are they still so tricky and mean?"
Qu Zhu said: "Then let's make arrangements first."
