"Reinforcements are coming, everyone, work harder to drive the rebels down!" Han Qing, knowing that Zhe Weizhong was from Kaifeng Prefecture, decisively raised his voice and shouted loudly.
The guards and eunuchs also saw a group of soldiers and horses coming outside the city, and mistakenly thought that the incoming troops were the Suppressing Army. The despair in their hearts was quickly replaced by fighting spirit, and they rushed forward one by one with a loud roar, surrounded them and rushed to the city.
The head of the rebels was chopped off.
As for the rebels who rushed to the city, they did not have an advantage in terms of numbers. Suddenly they lost the support from behind and immediately lost their vigor. They were beaten back steadily. In the blink of an eye, they were defeated by the palace guards and eunuchs.
They all squeezed down the city wall.
"I'm going to support Xihuamen. I'll leave this place to you, old man. The rebels don't have enough troops and their morale is not high. It's impossible to continue to organize the attack until Zhe Weizhong is driven away!" Han Qing took a deep breath, returned to Liu Chenggui again, and said calmly.
Voice confession.
"Go ahead, unless I die, we will never let the rebels enter the city!" Liu Chenggui felt ashamed in his heart and responded with a red face. Then he pulled himself together, rushed to the crenellations of the city wall, and pointed at a
The ladder owner shouted loudly, "Someone, smash it for me!"
Two eunuchs lifted up a heavy rolling log and threw it down towards the ladder. With a "boom" sound, the rolling log bounced up half a foot on the ladder and then fell back down again. It quickly rolled along the ladder, throwing the rebels who were in a dilemma on the ladder.
The soldiers were all beaten to pieces with broken muscles and bones.
"Up to the thunder stone, up to the thunder stone!"
"Use the putter, use the putter to knock you down!"
"Rocket, use rocket to greet the fence!"
"The nail bat, the nail bat is hitting the city."
"Cut the iron hook, chop the iron hook on the top of the ladder!"
…
The guards and captains also plucked up their courage again, called their brothers nearby, and launched a counterattack against the rebels.
If the supporting army outside the imperial city came from the Zhenrong Army, then what King Yong said about Li Jihe's death just now was a lie!
The Suppressing Rong Army was evenly matched against Party Xiang Tieyao! The Divine Guards are a bunch of bastards, how could they be the Suppressing Rong Army's opponent?
Therefore, when the suppressing army comes, the rebels will definitely be defeated.
Even if only a small group of vanguard troops came to suppress the Rong army, it also meant that King Yong's success was almost defeated!
In the imperial city, the morale, which was already on the verge of collapse, quickly rose to as high as the Xuandemen watchtower.
All the palace guards, eunuchs, and servants roared back to the top of the city. In an instant, the rolling logs, thunder stones, push rods, nail rackets and other city defense equipment that were originally just for display all came into play, driving the rebels helpless.
Standing at the base of the city wall, he held his head and backed away.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo[[ness] can't go on.
The horn of retreat.
The rebels near the city wall retreated back to their own formation like a general amnesty. Wang Fan immediately organized his troops and launched a counterattack against Zhe Weizhong with absolute superiority, trying to surround the latter and his brothers.
Wipe them all out in one fell swoop.
Zhe Weizhong was born in the Zhe family in the northwest, and was an out-and-out general general. Not only was he highly skilled in martial arts, he was also quite proficient in commanding on the battlefield.
Finding that the crisis in the imperial city had been resolved, he decisively led his brothers to retreat to Kaifeng Mansion. Wang Shu, the governor of Kaifeng Mansion, also promptly sent a team of people led by Yang Wenguang to come to the rescue. With his familiarity with the streets of Kaifeng Mansion, he grabbed
Before the rebel encirclement closed, Zheweizhong and others were picked up in time.
"Bang!" With a sound, the side door of Kaifeng Mansion was closed tightly. The archers standing on the roof of the courtyard shot arrows from high above, knocking down the rebels who were rushing over.
The rebels' siege equipment was all concentrated near Xuandemen and Xihuamen, and could not be mobilized back in time to deal with the high walls of Kaifeng Mansion. Therefore, the general who led the encirclement and suppression of Wei Zhong, although his eyes turned blue with anger, could only
I can go back and pay the order in anger.
Taking advantage of the opportunity that the main force of the rebels was busy dealing with Zhe Weizhong and could not keep track of each other, Han Qing also successfully rushed to the enemy tower of Xihua Gate. Together with the brothers who stayed here, he defeated the group that attacked Xihua Gate.
The rebels retreated.
Before he knew it, it was already bright. Standing on the top floor of the Xihua Gate Watchtower, Han Qing turned around and had a panoramic view of half of Bianliang City.
Along both sides of Imperial Street, in the inner city of Bianliang, dozens of plumes of blue-black smoke surged upwards. But many wealthy families suffered misfortunes inexplicably last night. Not only the money accumulated by generations of people were wiped out.
After being looted, the mansion and compound that they were once proud of were reduced to a pile of embers.
"Zhao Yuanfen is desperate for the throne!" Han Qing couldn't help but feel angry when he thought that even if the rebels fell short in the end, Bianliang City would not be able to regain its former prosperity within ten years after experiencing this calamity.
However, after searching through the memories of another time and space, he still could not find any records about the civil strife in the Song Dynasty before and after the Chanyuan Alliance.
It can only be found that the Chanyuan Alliance completely broke the backbone of the Song Dynasty. From then on, the monarchs and ministers did not talk about the Northern Expedition to regain the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. It was not until a few years later that the Jurchens easily snatched the two emperors away to herd sheep on the grassland.
!
"Han Ambassador, Liu Douzhi asked you to go to Xuandemen. He said there was an urgent military situation." Just when he was hating that he was in another time and space and did not seize the opportunity to memorize the historical records before and after the Chanyuan Alliance, Xihua
From the horse path inside the door, the voice of Deputy Huang Duzhi from Zuoban came again. "Leave this place to our family first. Once the rebels launch an attack, our family will raise the flag as soon as possible to warn."
"Okay!" Han Qing had just fought alongside this man and knew that this man was quite courageous. He nodded, turned around and rushed down the city wall quickly.
With the help of the shortcut opened by someone last night, he soon arrived at Xuande Gate again. Before he could ask Liu Chenggui what was going on, he saw two familiar faces.
One was Yang Xu, who separated from him last night and returned to Kaifeng Mansion to deliver a message to Wang Shu. The other one turned out to be Zhang Huan, who had been away for a long time!
In an instant, Han Qing felt that his vision went dark. He suppressed the tension in his heart and asked Zhang Huan in a low voice, "Zhang Yuhou, why are you here? Where is Li Dujian? Is he still in good health?"
"
At this moment, his face was full of expectation. His hands were also clenched into fists. He only hoped that the word "well" could be uttered from Zhang Huan's mouth, and he would be satisfied. However, he expected
The blows came one after another.
"Du Jian, Du Jian has been killed!" Zhang Huan, who was hit by an arrow on the battlefield and refused to frown, suddenly squatted down, pounded the ground with his fist, and shouted loudly, "It's the commander of the capital on the right side.
Zhang Tingyu poisoned him to death. Zhang Tingyu had surrendered to King Yong a long time ago! Revenge, Judge Han, avenge the eunuch! When the eunuch was alive, the one he admired the most was you. On the night of the poisoning, the eunuch was still writing a memorial to the officials for you.
Please excuse me and ask the officials not to listen to rumors and destroy themselves!"
