Chapter 565: In times of national calamity, ordinary people are not afraid of death!
That night.
Taiyuan City was filled with smoke, and the sounds of fighting resounded throughout the city.
The movement in the city soon reached the garrison camp stationed in Taiyuan City.
The lights of the barracks were lit.
The generals in charge of controlling the military camp hurried together wearing their war robes.
Someone had already informed the camp of the situation outside.
It is precisely because of this that the atmosphere in the military camp is very solemn and entangled.
"According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, if there is no military order from the Dusi Yamen, if we lead the troops out of the camp at night like this, it will be treason."
A general was still busy arranging his armor, while frowning and thinking.
Someone on the opposite side immediately said: "What's going on now? Siege the Prince Jin's Mansion! Tonight is the birthday banquet of Prince Jin. His Royal Highness the Emperor's Grandson and the High Cabinet are also in the Prince's Mansion, as well as those Northern Patrol Civil and Military Officers. If I don't lead the troops,
We went out to quell the rebellion, and if the court investigates us afterwards, we are also at fault."
Obviously, this man wanted to lead his troops out of the camp to suppress the rebellion that was happening in the city at the moment.
But just as this person finished speaking, someone else looked at the people around him with a faint look.
Everyone couldn't help but look over.
This man's surname was Li. Although he never stated it clearly, he was inextricably linked to the Li Mansion Courtyard in Taiyuan City.
If there had been no war in Taiyuan City in just ten years, it would have been impossible for him to be promoted from an official of a hundred households to a guard to command the general affairs.
"Li Qianshi seems to have something to say, but I wonder what Qianshi thinks?"
Someone asked.
Li Qianshi sneered, shook his head and said: "Right now it's not about whether we leave the camp or whether we will make mistakes. It's about how the situation in Taiyuan City tonight will develop..."
What he said was a bit vague, making it difficult to tell what was going on for a while.
Sitting in the main camp in the city tonight, the Shanxi Daodu commander, Sidu, commanding Qianshi Wei Ben, who was controlling the army and horses, looked at Li Qianshi with a gloomy look.
As the commander-in-chief of the Shanxi Daodu Division, Wei Bi was in charge of the Shanxi Dao garrison, garrison, and military affairs.
It was only in the past two years that he retired from Datong Mansion due to injury and was transferred to the position of commander of Shanxi Daodu.
It can be regarded as the court's favor and kindness to him.
It was precisely because of this that there was a grand banquet at the Jin Palace tonight, so he was left in the military camp to take charge.
He has no connections behind the scenes and has never been involved in Shanxi Taoist officials.
Wei Bi, who has been leading troops and horses on the front line of Datong all year round, has never been accustomed to people like Li Rong.
Although Wei Bi was the commander of Shanxi Daodu and could be regarded as Li Rong's immediate superior. However, because of Li Rong's undisclosed background, Wei Bi had nothing to do with him.
Seeing how Li Rong was acting so strangely, Wei Ben naturally had a bad temper.
"Just say whatever you have to say, how can a soldier be so hesitant!"
Li Rong saw Wei Bi speaking, but his face was not flustered.
He just sighed, pretending to be worried and said: "The general is just worried. Who would have thought that there would be a rebellion in Taiyuan City. Now I think the rebels have already rushed into the Jin Palace, not just Taisun and others.
In the palace, there are also the officials from the Sansi Yamen of Shanxi Province.
If they are rebels... then, after dawn tomorrow, who will speak in Taiyuan City? Although we are soldiers, what should we do if we really reach that level? "
Li Rong's words immediately caused endless worries in the hearts of many people in the tent.
Wei Ben slammed the table and glared at Li Rong: "Presumptuous! Bold! Is this what you can say?"
Li Rong didn't care at all.
He probably felt that after tonight, this annoying Wei Ben would no longer be able to take him seriously.
He looked directly at Wei Bi and said in a deep voice: "Wei Qianshi, now let's think about our own future!"
The tent was instantly filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Wei Ben breathed heavily, looked around at the people in front of him, and finally stared angrily at Li Rong, asking sullenly: "Are you going to join the rebels?"
While speaking, Wei Bi's hand was already on the saber at his waist.
Li Rong sneered: "Wei Qianshi! The general has never said such things. Qianshi should not slander the general. But what should I do now and what will happen in the future? Shouldn't I
Think about it? I think everyone in the camp tonight is also very worried right now!"
After Li Rong finished speaking, he looked at the people around him with a sneer on his lips.
There are more different looks on people's faces.
Wei Ben looked at everyone with a solemn face, feeling helpless in his heart.
It is well known to everyone that he is not welcome in Dusi Yamen. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to stay in the military camp tonight.
Even at this moment, he could not unify the thoughts of the generals in the battalion.
He immediately looked at the general who wanted to lead his troops out of the camp to quell the rebellion.
"Su Tongzhi, the current situation in the city is such that Prince Jin's palace is besieged by rebels. What do you think?"
Wei Ben stared at the other party deeply.
Su Tongzhi, who was named, was a little hesitant.
He originally wanted to lead the troops out of the camp, but looking at it now, not to mention whether he would be held accountable by the court for leaving the camp without an order, but no one knew what the situation was in the Jin Palace now.
If the rebels have already invaded the palace and captured all the people gathered in the palace tonight, then Taiyuan City may have to change that day.
The royal flag on top of the city also needs to be replaced with a new flag.
My entire family is in Taiyuan City.
I have more worries, unlike Wei Ben who is an official in Shanxi alone.
If Wei Ben were to die in battle, he would still be rewarded by the imperial court and granted a posthumous title, which would benefit his son-in-law.
But if I die here, there will be nothing left.
Wei Ben looked at the other person who was hesitating and silent, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and fell heavily on the chair behind him.
He waved his hand: "That's it...that's all... Since there are no military orders from the capital commander and no writings from the grandson, you will each return to your camp to control your officers and soldiers and not cause chaos."
"The last general takes orders."
There is no need to make a choice at this time, it is the best choice for everyone.
Everyone accepted the order one after another and breathed a sigh of relief. They each left the military tent and went to various places in the camp.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Ronglu came to the end, looking at Wei Bi with a sneer in his eyes, who was bowing his head in thought, and then slowly walked away.
When Li Rong left the tent.
Wei Ben then raised his head and looked at the empty tent.
Bang.
Wei Ben angrily smashed the teacup in his hand on the ground.
But in the end, it still turned into a long and long sigh.
After a long time.
Wei Bi stood up hurriedly and quickly walked out of the tent. When he arrived outside, the sound of fighting coming from the direction of Prince Jin's Mansion immediately filled his ears.
Wei Ben raised his head and looked in the direction of the palace, his eyes flickering.
His hands were tightly holding the handle of the knife at his waist, and his breathing was getting heavier.
"Come here! Lead the horse for me!"
Finally, Wei Bi made a decision and gave orders to the soldiers outside the tent.
The war horses were quickly brought.
Wei Ben got on his horse and looked at several soldiers: "I am going to attack the rebels. If you want to follow, you can go and lead the horses yourself."
After saying this, Wei Bi finally took out the sword from his waist and struck the horse heavily with the blade.
The war horse neighed and immediately started running.
However, Wei Ben, who was on horseback, did not control the horse to leave the camp, but instead ran into the camp.
The formation of horseshoes attracted the attention of the whole camp.
Wei Ben's face did not change, he sat on the horse, waving a long knife in his hand, his face was ferocious, and he looked like he was crazy, but he kept roaring loudly.
"The grandson is in trouble, and the palace is in danger. This is the time for us to serve the country. You and I will follow my general, pick up the sword and mount the horse, go out to the camp to kill the thieves!"
Wei Bi shouted with all his strength.
The sound reached the ears of everyone in the camp.
Not long after, his soldiers also chased after him on horseback.
Then, everyone shouted together.
"Hold your sword and mount your horse! Go out to the camp and kill the thieves!"
"Hold your sword and mount your horse! Go out to the camp and kill the thieves!"
"Hold your sword and mount your horse! Go out to the camp and kill the thieves!"
"..."
After doing this several times, Wei Ben had already led his soldiers to attack the camp several times.
finally.
The soldiers in the camp were infected.
Li Tongzhi looked at Wei Ben who kept running and roaring in the camp, and his face turned red for a moment.
"Lead the horse for me! Follow General Wei out of camp with me to kill the bandits!"
After saying this, Li Tongzhi had already mounted his horse and chased Wei Ben, who was still riding his horse in the camp and roaring.
In an instant, countless people were mobilized.
In the blink of an eye, the Taiyuan City garrison camp completely exploded. Countless people followed Wei Ben, the commanding officer, and kept roaring loudly.
"Kill the thief!"
"Kill the thief!"
"Kill the thief!"
Wei Ben, who was riding a horse in the camp, had a smile on his face.
There are more and more people behind him.
He was a famous general in the army, and they followed him on horseback.
More soldiers took their weapons and began to gather at the school ground under the camp gate.
Wei Ben had been trapped in Taiyuan City for many years, and finally at this moment he felt the military pride he had only had when guarding the border in the past.
In times of national calamity, ordinary people are not afraid of death!
Wei Bi and a group of followers circled the military camp for the last time, and finally stopped behind the camp gate.
After leaving this gate, they had to suppress the rebellion in the city, but they did not receive any military orders or official documents.
Not out.
It’s hard to achieve what you want!
Wei Ben's eyes turned red, and he looked back at the clear faces in the brightly lit camp.
He raised his sword again and roared angrily: "Come out of the camp! Kill the thieves!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
In response to Wei Bi, all the soldiers in the camp shouted for kill.
The camp gate burst open with a bang, and countless officers and soldiers from the Taiyuan City garrison, following Wei Ben and other army generals, rushed out of the camp and rushed towards the Jin Palace to suppress the rebellion in the city.
Inside the camp.
Li Rong clasped his hands together and stood under the camp gate, looking dimly at the retreating army with a murderous look in his eyes.
Taiyuan City.
On the street leading from the garrison camp to Prince Jin's Mansion.
The commander of Shanxi Daodu, Sidu, commanded Wei Ben, the chief minister, to take the lead and personally led the troops to the Jin palace to quell the rebellion.
Throughout the street, the army was in order and in strict formation.
Although Wei Bi was not popular in the Shanxi Dusi Yamen, as the commander of the capital, he was responsible for training all the guards in Shanxi Province. The officers and soldiers guarding the guards in Taiyuan City were all trained under him in the past.
The army marched in, and the silence was like iron. No one spoke a word.
When the Jin Prince's Mansion could be seen directly, the generals of the Ma Army Camp had already given orders and rushed to the front of the team with the soldiers of the Ma Army Camp.
The spear pressed down.
The smoke of the Jin Palace in the distance and the countless beacon fires that were no longer burning allowed Wei Ben to clearly see the thieves rushing towards the Jin Palace.
The rebels have already stormed into the palace.
Wei Bi's expression couldn't help but become more solemn.
Just when he was about to give the order to rush to the battlefield.
From the alley in the diagonal direction, a military horse suddenly rushed out and stopped in front of the team.
At this time, Taiyuan City was full of thieves and soldiers, and no one could tell who the other party was.
After just one encounter, the two sides immediately drew their swords and faced each other, and their whole bodies were on guard.
"Who are you?"
General Ma Junying was at the front of the team and spoke first.
The soldiers and horses who rushed out of the alley looked at the team that was obviously rushing towards Prince Jin's Mansion with cold eyes, feeling extremely stressed in their hearts.
It's just that these people are all wearing Ming army armor and have strict military formations. They don't look like they are rebels or have surrendered to the thieves.
Then he carefully announced his family: "The Northern Patrol is in the camp. The 4000th household is the first, and the 200th household team! On the order of the emperor's grandson, go to the Taiyuan City garrison camp to control the troops. You and others
What is your identity and what do you want to do? Tell me your name."
They are soldiers and horses patrolling the camp from the north!
General Ma Junying's eyes flashed.
Wei Bi, who was behind, had also heard the sound and drove his horse up.
"Are you people who are traveling in the camp?"
Wei Bi looked at the soldiers and horses in front of him with some doubts.
Although the emperor's grandson brought troops into the city today, they are all in the Jin Palace now. How can there be soldiers and horses walking in the camp in the city.
The 100th Household Officer of the 100th Household Team and the 100th Household Officer of the 200th Household Team, who were about to rush to the main camp of the Taiyuan City Guard Station with their men, looked at each other.
The official of the 100th Household Team stepped forward and raised his head with a hint of contempt in his eyes: "In Taiyuan City, can you stop our Ming army's forward?"
Wei Ben, who was on horseback, was not angry when he heard such unkind words. Instead, he burst into laughter.
"Okay! You don't need to go to the camp. I am the commander of Shanxi Daodu. I am leading the army to the Prince of Jin's Mansion to put down the rebellion. Do you want to go with me?"
Wei Bi is a self-proclaimed family member.
Baihuguan hesitated for a while, looked at the thousands of soldiers and horses behind Wei Bi, and finally nodded: "You move forward, I'll wait to hold down the formation."
This is a word of caution.
Wei Ben understood, nodded, and shouted to the general of Ma Junying in front: "The whole army continues on its way! Speed up and go to the Jin Palace to quell the rebellion and kill the thieves!"
Since these soldiers and horses marching in the camp can enter the city from outside the city, it is obvious that the Emperor Taisun has been prepared for a long time and has long expected that there will be a rebellion like tonight in Taiyuan City.
Wei Ben's heart, which had been hanging on, couldn't help but drop.
I felt a little more at ease with the current situation in Prince Jin's palace.
Thinking about the situation in the palace, the emperor's grandson and others may be in a dangerous situation, but they should be able to support themselves and lead the people there.
What Wei Bi didn't know was.
The gears of his destiny will also change at this moment, the moment he makes the decision to lead the army out of the camp to quell the rebellion tonight, and it will start to turn in another direction.
