Such great changes have taken place in the capital, but the journey to Zhu Ling has been quite peaceful. After the alcohol was made that day, the soldiers all believed that His Majesty was a god coming to save the Ming Dynasty. The back and forth publicity actually made people
Half of the eight thousand Guanning troops knew about it, and some soldiers even worshiped Zhu Ling to a higher level.
It was an unexpected surprise for Zhu Ling. I thought that most of the soldiers would think that it was a gift from the emperor to apply medicine to them personally, and they would be grateful. However, in the end, they were really tired, and many of the soldiers' feet had not been used for a long time.
Washing, it really made him breathless.
They had no choice but to teach Wang Guoxing and let him take the Jin Yiwei to apply medicine to the soldiers one by one. Therefore, most of Guan Ning's army today only worship him because he made a good medicine, and rarely because he lowered his status.
But this kind of news was naturally somewhat detrimental to the three generals who wanted to rebel. Therefore, the three of them used their cronies to lobby their soldiers several times in the past few days, but it seemed that they had little effect.
Jin Yiwei also did a very good job in monitoring these three people, and collected a large amount of intelligence in less than a day. Almost everything the three of them said to the soldiers, what they gave them, and their plans were recorded by Jin Yiwei.
Passed it to Zhu Ling.
"Your Majesty, it seems that these people are not going well." In the dragon chariot, Wang Jiayan sat respectfully and looked at the information handed over by the royal guards in his hands, and couldn't help laughing.
"It's okay if it doesn't go well. What I'm afraid of is that it goes well."
Zhu Ling was also afraid that the conversation would be overheard by others, so he entered the dragon chariot abnormally. To be honest, the dragon chariot was not as good as riding a horse. At least the imperial horse, Kira Cheng, was extremely well-behaved and smart.
"Do these people have to wait until they get to Tianjin Guard to deal with them? Just halfway?" Wang Jiayan finally felt that these three people would always be a scourge in his heart if they didn't die.
"Let's wait until Tianjin. Everything will go according to their plans first." Zhu Ling was a little tired. These days, he not only had to guard against intruders and slave builders, but he also had to worry about his own people.
The emperor seemed a little aggrieved.
The southbound team was less than a hundred miles away from Tianjin. Seeing this, Zhu Ling asked the team to speed up the march. Yang Kuo, who received the order, quickly ordered the army to move faster. Except for the three generals and some of their own subordinates,
, the other soldiers did not have any dissatisfaction, but were very willing to cooperate.
When Zhu Ling and others were about to march to Tianjin, Luo Rucai also started to attack the capital at the same time. The first attack was indeed a bit slow, and many of the soldiers who had surrendered from the capital camp were pushed to the front to kill them, and they faced themselves
Most of the capital officials were resistant and were unwilling to step forward.
But after all, there was the Dashun Army behind them to supervise the battle, so they had no choice but to slow down the speed of the charge. Even their shouts had a sense of weakness, which made the intruders standing behind them speechless.
It wasn't until a battle supervisor of the Dashun Army killed several surrendered soldiers from the Beijing camp that there was a slight improvement, but it was better to say that he was afraid. But there was also hell ahead.
The performance on the city was also somewhat disappointing. Most of the soldiers faced the enemy's siege, especially the archers at the forefront. They were the most likely to get the first reward. For these one hundred taels, it was a lot
People were in such a hurry that they couldn't match the bow and arrow for a long time, and some people even broke the bow directly.
The infantrymen in the back row laughed when they saw such a scene. They mocked the archers as a bunch of losers, which provoked the archers to almost ignore the soldiers outside the city and start a fight with them.
Fortunately, Meng Zhaoxiang sent many soldiers to supervise the battle in time, which calmed the chaos. However, he also killed a few people as a warning, and no one dared to be so reckless.
The descending soldiers below rushed up in a wave and were beaten down; another wave came and were beaten down again. During this period, in order to prevent the archers from seeing that the descending soldiers were members of their own family who were unwilling to shoot arrows, Meng Zhaoxiang directly asked each of them to shoot arrows.
The eyes are all wrapped in black cloth.
After several waves of mutual attacks and defenses, the two sides gradually calmed down and waited for the next wave of real siege. Meng Zhaoxiang knew that the intruders were just using the surrendered soldiers to test the strength of the capital's defense and weak gaps.
After the test, there is a fierce and difficult attack.
He asked the deputy general beside him why he hadn't seen Liu Zongmin being escorted yet. The deputy general was also speechless. He just said that Luo Sheng from the Beijing camp had taken people there, but he didn't know exactly why he hadn't come yet.
Immediately, he subconsciously understood that there must be something wrong with Liu Zongmin. No wonder the intruders dared to attack so brazenly, but they were not afraid that they would take Liu Zongmin as a hostage. There must be spies in the city who came to rescue him.
He immediately shouted: "Deputy General Zhang Mo! You lead three hundred people to bring Liu Zongmin here. You must be quick. Anyone who dares to stop him will be killed without mercy!"
"The last general takes command!"
Zhang Mo immediately rushed to Beizhen Fusi with the 300 soldiers from the Beijing camp who were resting under the city. He vaguely guessed that Liu Zongmin might have had an accident there, so he kept waving his whip faster, and the soldiers behind him also ran wildly.
stay close.
At this time, Luo Sheng and 200 people happened to arrive at the gate of Fusi in Beizhen. Seeing that the place was still in order, he did not have any suspicion. He immediately got off his horse, took a few people into the Yamen, and walked quickly towards Zhao Prison inside.
And go.
However, he did not notice that the guards in uniforms around him, whether standing guard or coming and going on errands, had already grasped the long knives at their waists, staring coldly at Luo Sheng as he entered, and someone immediately whistled.
When Luo Sheng, who was about to arrive at Zhao Prison, suddenly heard this strange whistle, the sensitivity of the battlefield made him feel that it was quite strange, but the killers did not give him time to think. In an instant, there were people hiding around him.
Yes, the man next to him pretending to be a royal guard immediately drew his sword and attacked.
In an instant, dozens of sharp blades were pointed at them at the same time. When the guards around him saw this, they immediately used their flesh and blood to protect Luo Sheng. At that moment, the six guards around him were instantly killed.
There were several bloody marks on each person's body, which was extremely terrifying. Luo Sheng also reacted and quickly drew his sword to resist. However, he also knew that there were many killers here and they had penetrated deep into Jinyiwei's yamen, so he had to alert the soldiers outside.
He fought and retreated, and was forced into a corner. After struggling to fend off a blow, he took out the whistle arrow in his arms and fired it without hesitation.
"Hey~"
As the sentry arrow was successfully launched, Luo Sheng looked happy, but in the next second a long knife pierced his body. Then his body went limp, blood spurted out, and he immediately fell to the ground and died.
When the soldiers outside saw the sound of whistles and arrows coming from inside, they immediately felt that the situation was not good and wanted to go in to check. Seeing that they could not stop them, the killers who were dressed as guards immediately drew their swords and fought with the soldiers.
Just when Liu Zongmin wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape, fortunately, Zhang Mo's reinforcements finally arrived and stopped him. There were only 500 killers, but more than 100 people died just to deal with the people in the Jinyiwei Yamen.
At this moment, facing more than 500 elite members of the Beijing camp, they were all wiped out in an instant like a rabbit in a wolf's den.
Liu Zongmin's plan to escape immediately went bankrupt, and he was taken away by Zhang Mo, who was covered in blood. Some of the captured killers were quite talented and did not want to be caught and died of poisoning on the spot, but there were still some people who were greedy for life and fearful of death and knelt down.
surrender.
After cross-examination, Zhang Mo actually learned that they were Wei Zaode, the chief minister of the imperial cabinet a few days ago!
When he arrived at the tower, he informed Meng Zhaoxiang of the matter. After hearing that the matter was actually related to Wei Zaode, he suddenly admired His Majesty's discernment.
Why was Wei Zaode not used at that time? It turned out that he had long been known to be a traitor. But because there was no evidence, and in order to prevent the world from misunderstanding what His Majesty had done, he was kept at home to take care of his old age.
I never thought that what he did today would be known to me.
"Send some people to Mr. Fan Ge's house to ask for advice and see how he plans to deal with it. And inform him that your Majesty asked this governor to take charge of some affairs in the capital, but I am not able to do what he wants. Mr. Ge is one of the ministers of the DPRK.
First of all, you should take more responsibility, it is for your majesty and for the people of the capital."
