The Zhang family can be considered a wealthy clan in Yunzhou City, and even in the entire Northland. The family owns thousands of acres of fertile land, makes loans and earns profits. It has a large population and is quite powerful. It is also married to other big families and has countless connections.
thread.
However, all this was of no use in front of the wolf-like and tiger-like Jin Yiwei and the armored and sharp soldiers.
For them, anyone who dares to do harm to His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, is their sworn enemy!
Therefore, even though the head of the Zhang family was still lucky after seeing the soldiers rushing into the house, when he tried to gather the servants in the house to stop him, he was mercilessly killed by Qianhu, the leader of the Jinyi Guards!
"puff!"
"ah!"
Being chopped to the ground by a knife, the head of the Zhang family who was seriously injured and dying suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood. His eyes were full of disbelief. In his eyes, even if he was guilty, he would not commit such a murderous attack just by looking at these brocade-clad dogs...
…
However, before surrounding the entire Zhang family, the commander-in-chief of this operation, Commander Shen Qingyu of the Jinyi Guards, had secretly paid attention to the leading Qianhu households and ordered them to kill them directly without arresting them alive.
As for who gave the order, it was of course Zhu Gaojie himself.
Zhu Gaojie didn't have the slightest fondness for these Beidi families who were helping the tyrants and had no clue about their situation, and he didn't want to spare the lives of these people. Since they dared to help the dead soldiers to assassinate him, then he would
Be mentally prepared to be executed by him!
As the saying goes, if the grass is cut without removing the root, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows. Zhu Gaojie has always treated his enemies as coldly and decisively as the autumn wind sweeps away fallen leaves!
What's more, for Zhu Gaojie, stealing these big families in the north and harvesting the people's wealth is also beneficial to the national treasury. It can just fill the financial resources of the Ministry of Revenue and use it to implement the following decrees.
.
Therefore, this time, the big families in Yunzhou, headed by the Zhang family, were caught in the crosshairs, and they were in great misfortune!
Seeing that their master was chopped down to the ground by the imperial guards and even decapitated with a knife, the rest of the Zhang family and servants were all trembling with fear, and some even peed on the spot.
pants, and completely lost the will to resist and escape.
"Tie them all up!"
The leading Jinyi Guard Qianhu handed over the head of the head of the Zhang family to the people around him, then waved the embroidery knife in his hand, looked at the panicked Zhang family in front of him, and said with a sneer:
"Everyone, something happened to your Zhang family!"
"Think carefully now about how to explain all the charges of treason against you. Maybe you can still survive by being a guilty person and doing meritorious service..."
None of the Zhang family members, including the Jin Yiwei and the army sergeants, have any good impressions, and they actually dared to assassinate our most respected Crown Prince!
If you don't kill all of you directly, His Highness is considered to be benevolent and generous!
After hearing what Qianhu said, all the Zhang family members who were kneeling on the ground suddenly began to cry and beg for mercy, and the scene suddenly seemed a bit chaotic.
However, after Qianhu gave the order, the Jinyi guards and soldiers stepped forward and took action. Without hesitation, they knocked the Zhang family members to the ground, stuffed rags into their mouths, and then used thick hemp ropes to kill them directly.
Tied up!
"General Chen, what do you think?"
This time, Qian Hu was in charge of the inspection of the Zhang family, while the Fifth Army Camp sent a deputy general to the sergeants.
At this time, the deputy general named Chen saw Qianhu and asked, and said with a smile:
"I have no objection. His Highness's order is not only to arrest the Zhang family, but also to seize the Zhang family's money."
"Now that everyone has been arrested, let's start checking this family's property."
Although both sides are direct descendants of the East Palace and both work for Zhu Gaojie, Jinyiwei and Junzhong are completely two lines, one inside and one outside. They have no intersection on weekdays and should not have any friendship. Now they are just under the management of Zhu Gaojie.
The two sides just cooperate with each other.
Therefore, since the leaders of both parties had reached an agreement, all the Zhang family members were quickly escorted out of the house. They were all kneeling on the ground in front of the house in a state of embarrassment, being closely guarded by groups of armored soldiers.
The rest of the Jinyi guards and army sergeants acted independently. Both parties supervised each other when they entered Zhang's house and began to search the family property.
…
Just when the head of the Zhang family was beheaded and the entire Zhang Mansion was raided, several other families involved in the assassination in Yunzhou City were also being surrounded by Jinyi guards and soldiers and their homes were ransacked.
These families, both in terms of strength and scale, are not as good as the Zhang family. They have always followed the Zhang family, but this time they were suddenly ransacked, and they immediately panicked.
Some were panicking and running around like headless flies, and some were arrogant and yelled at the soldiers. There was even a family that usually supported the servants and thugs. They thought they were the tycoons of the North, but they dared to try to fight against the Jin Yiwei and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to rush out of Yunzhou.
Go to the city...
If we relied solely on the Jinyiwei, we might actually miss a few under the desperate attack of these people. After all, the Jinyiwei only had so many people. In terms of risking lives with real guns and knives, sometimes it may not always be possible.
Defeat these desperadoes.
But Zhu Gaojie had already expected this and directly sent the fifth military camp to work with the Jin Yiwei.
Although the Fifth Military Camp is ranked last among the three major battalions, that is because Fengzi Camp and Shenji Camp are too strong. After Zhu Gaojie integrated Yue Fei's personality and conducted rigorous military training, the Fifth Military Camp
Compared with the rest of the Ming Dynasty army, their strength can be regarded as extremely powerful and elite.
Therefore, when Jin Yiwei did not expect that this family would dare to fight to the death and was somewhat thrown into disarray, the soldiers of the Fifth Army Camp sneered one after another and charged forward without hesitation!
Among the three major battalions, only the fifth military camp does not use the divine arm bow very much, but relies purely on military formations and discipline to fight. Of course, the armor and weapons on their bodies are enough to suppress ordinary enemy troops.
Already...
But at this time, facing a group of desperadoes with only the strength of their own bravery, the leading general of the fifth army camp almost stopped laughing.
Compared with the elite armies of the Tatars and Walas, these people are just chickens!
"kill!"
After a confrontation, the originally fierce and ferocious group of people all fell into the hands of soldiers from the Fifth Army Camp wearing armor and holding long axes. Corpses were everywhere on the ground!
"Humph, a bunch of people who don't know how to live or die!"
And as the news gradually spread, the entire Yunzhou City was suddenly panicked and everyone was uneasy!
Your Highness, why did you suddenly act so cruelly?
