Holding fifty taels of silver, Zhao Jiang didn't know how he walked out of Prince Heng's Mansion.
The bright sun made him feel a little dizzy. After standing still, he tried to hold his breath, turned around and looked at the magnificent Prince Heng's Mansion, feeling infinitely sad in his heart.
Crape myrtle lines line up, the dew drops sway in the wind, and the red and purple colors reflect the sun.
Famous flowers circle around, and clear marshes circle around.
It was really the peak of Chu King Zhanghua and his tour of Liangyuan Platform.
Guarding the golden mountains and silver seas, why would a mere generation of vassal kings risk their lives to come to this place?
A wave of depression rushed straight to his forehead, Zhao Jiang violently placed the silver on the ground, roaring and crying blood.
"Your Majesty, can Daming be saved?"
Jiang Yumin, Shao Yichuan and others actually cried.
Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs.
The sadness of Qingzhou officials cannot be exchanged for any sympathy.
There was a violent roar that penetrated the sky, bricks and stones were flying on the city wall in the far distance, and buildings collapsed, accompanied by the wails of countless creatures.
The rebels attacked the city.
Zhao Jiang wiped away his tears and ran towards the city wall in a hurry.
As soon as I passed the bell tower, I saw a huge stream of people coming in a hurry. Among them were obviously the local warriors who had been placed at the top of the city, and now they have become deserters.
"Go back, go back quickly. If we can't defend the city, we will all die."
Zhao Jiang shouted until his throat broke, but nothing could stop him.
Everyone in Qingzhou City knows that without officers and soldiers, it is impossible to defend the city on their own.
They just want to escape. As long as they can escape faster than others, they may be able to survive.
Under such circumstances, it was no longer possible to control the situation by relying only on Zhao Jiang and a few other civil servants.
The rebels outside the city didn't know that there was chaos inside the city.
After ordering the attack, Li Jiucheng, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming and others all tensed up.
They focus more on their surroundings.
All the cavalry were sent out to scout the movements of the new army. They were afraid that when they were attacking the city, the new army would besiege them.
After two rounds of shelling, the city walls of Qingzhou were filled with smoke and the walls were destroyed, but no one could be seen.
Did the defenders have an ambush?
But at this time, the rebel infantry had already rushed to the bottom of the city carrying the ladder and began to climb up.
The imaginary crossbow was not seen, and there was no kerosene, gold soup, rolling wood, or pounding stones.
There were several artillery pieces placed at the top of the city, but there was no movement.
Ten breaths later, the fastest soldiers had already boarded the top of the city. When they looked towards the city, they were stunned.
However, he quickly reacted and immediately turned around and shouted: "The city is broken, the city is broken!"
As more and more soldiers came to the city, the shouts could be heard from afar.
Kong Youde and others were far away and could not hear the shouting, but seeing the cheerful appearance of the soldiers at the top of the city, they knew that the attack on the city seemed to be going smoothly.
A general rushed back and pointed at the Qingzhou City Gate that was slowly opening.
"Commander, Commander, everyone in the city is running south, and there is no one to defend the city. We have captured Qingzhou!"
Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde were excited to fight, but Li Yingyuan reacted quickly. He waved his long sword and shouted: "The whole army enters the city to rob money and food."
Tens of thousands of rebels immediately transformed into demonic beasts and swarmed into Qingzhou City.
They themselves had no military discipline at all, they had been hungry for a long time, and the Qingzhou City was well preserved, which immediately aroused their ferocity.
Soon, Qingzhou City turned into a hell on earth.
The rebels brandished weapons and rushed into every house at all costs. They stole everything of value and took away all the food.
When he saw a woman, he would violently commit violence on the spot, and the other men, young and old, would be slaughtered without batting an eye.
Kong Youde was even more outstanding, and he personally led a group of cavalry around the city and went straight to the south of the city.
There were countless people trying to escape, but they all blocked the city gate, screaming in terror and crying endlessly.

Kong Youde came over with his cavalry and happened to be blocked.
Seeing some well-dressed people fleeing in all directions, he immediately jumped on his horse and chased them.
In a moment, they were all killed.
The people who were about to leave the city saw the rivers of blood outside and turned back in panic, trying to find another way out. However, they were overtaken by the rebels who came from behind. They attacked from both sides and were massacred one by one.
Kong Youde didn't know how many people he had killed, but the blade was already curled. Blood flowed freely along the blade, and the smell of blood made him particularly excited.
"Send the order and block all the city gates. No one will be allowed to escape. Today I will make these Shandong people understand the consequences of offending me in Dongjiang Town."
He had no idea that among the people he had just killed, there were also Zhao Jiang, Jiang Yumin, Shao Yichuan and others who had escaped in disguise.
After knowing that the city could no longer be defended, these officials had no ambition to die and ran away as fast as anyone else.
Precisely because they ran so fast, they ran into the rebel cavalry after leaving the city gate, and died faster.
I have to say, this is really a great irony.
When the rebels invaded Qingzhou City, Mao Chenglu led his troops outside. When he came back, he regretted it endlessly.
He didn't know how much others had robbed, but he had lost money anyway.
With red eyes, Mao Chenglu didn't care about anything and led his cavalry straight into the city, looting along the streets.
He knew that in a city, the wealthiest families must be on both sides of the official road, near the government office.
In order to grab more things, he even spared his own people.
Any mansion he liked, even if it was already being robbed by his own people, he would rush forward on horseback. At least he would whip him, and at worst he would charge him with his horse.
Even so, he still felt that he was at a loss.
I didn't know where to find the supplementary time when I suddenly heard the guard shouting: "Hey, dear, is this the emperor's palace?"
Mao Chenglu followed the directions and saw a large and majestic palace complex in front of him. The green tiles and red japanese linings caught the sun's brilliance.
The tall palace wall is more than three feet tall, which is larger than the city wall of Qingzhou Prefecture.
"What is this place?"
The people under my command went to ask and quickly replied: "General, this is Prince Heng's Mansion. The people living there are relatives of the Dog Emperor."
The people below don’t understand, but Mao Chenglu knows it all.
The famous Prince Heng’s Mansion!
People say that Qingzhou's fields are connected to Qianmo, and half of them belong to Heng Fan.
How much should it cost?
If it were in the past, Mao Chenglu would not even dare to think about it when facing the feudal king.
But now they are traitors and have been caught by the court. The emperor will only chop off their heads but will not let them go.
In this case, why should they let go of the emperor's relatives?
Seeing that the heavy palace gate could not be broken open by human power, Mao Chenglu was filled with fear.
"Go and ask Bu Shiren to bring the artillery."
In Prince Heng's Mansion, even though there was a tall palace wall, the wails from Qingzhou City could still be heard coming in.
Zhu Youyi was hiding in a palace, his face was pale, and he no longer had the calmness he had before. I don't know if he regrets it now.
A eunuch rolled in and crawled in.
"Your Highness, there are many Qiuba outside the palace...are they coming outside the palace? Could it be...could it be..."
Never mind that these people used to be arrogant and domineering, but that was to deal with the common people. Now when they encounter the rebels who are killing people, they are more cowardly than lambs.
Zhu Youyi was more afraid than others, but he didn't want to show his timidity in front of his servants.
"Huh, Gu... I am a descendant of Hongwu, a nobleman of Tianhuang. Although these Qiu Ba accidentally... went astray, how dare... how dare..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a loud and earth-shattering sound at the palace gate.
The majestic palace gate, which was built with tens of thousands of gold, collapsed and scattered in all directions. The bloody smell in the city was wrapped in smoke and dust and rushed straight into the palace.
"Help...help!"
Zhu Youyi no longer had the restraint of a royal relative, and after wailing, a heavy rain began to fall between his legs.
