The boat quickly approached, and Shi Wenyi stood on the bow and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, my minister Shi Wenyi has come to rescue the boat."
Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "Shi Wenyi, do you want to die? Go and capture Liu Jin quickly."
Shi Wenyi shouted: "Your Majesty, you have been deceived. Eunuch Liu is a loyal minister. He has been loyal to you for so many years and is loyal to the country. Your Majesty, please don't believe Zhang Yanling's lies. He wants to get rid of Eunuch Liu. There is something between them.
Feud."
Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "If he is a loyal minister, why doesn't he obey my will? If you are a loyal minister, why do you only listen to him and not to me? Leave quickly."
Shi Wenyi gritted his teeth and pretended not to hear. Now that the matter was over, there was only one way to go until dark, with no thought of looking back.
"Listen to the guards of the Han generals on the ship. I, Shi Wenyi, in the name of the commander of Jinyiwei Yamen, order you to arrest Zhang Yanling, Jiang Bin and others to protect the emperor. These two people are holding the emperor hostage and are traitors." Shi Wenyi shouted loudly.
There were more than ten Han generals and guards accompanying the dragon boat. They all looked at Zhang Yanling and Jiang Bin after hearing this. Zhang Yanling smiled and said: "Everyone, Shi Wenyi's official was appointed by the emperor. The emperor has dismissed him now. You don't have to listen to his orders. If you
I'm so confused that I want to give it a try. The whole family will be punished for treason, so you can take a risk. I bet Mr. Jiang can beat ten of you by himself."
Jiang Bin curled his lips and murmured in his mind whether he was fighting with the wrong team. If these people really took action, he would never be able to defeat them.
Only at this moment did Zhu Houzhao realize that everyone around him was taking orders from Liu Jin. He had handed over all safety to Liu Jin at some point. This was a terrible thing. These guards on the ship were all Liu Jin's people. Look at them.
His expression was that of being ready to move.
Zhu Houzhao shouted in a cold voice: "Listen to me. From now on, except for Shi Wenyi, who is the commander of the Jinyi Guards, I will punish him for the serious crime of treason. If you listen to their orders, you will be a thief and treason. I will not forgive him.
Just stand here. If you dare to take action, kill me first. I will see if you have the courage to kill the king."
Zhang Yanling secretly admired that Zhu Houzhao still had some courage. He could see it when he fought with the Tatars in Dushi City. At this time, most people would have been scared to death, but Zhu Houzhao still stepped forward to scold him, which was indeed a bit courageous.
.
Zhu Houzhao's heavenly power was still there, and the guards on the ship took pictures of him. How could they have the courage to kill the king?
"Your Majesty, the villains will not obey their orders. The villains are loyal to the Emperor and only listen to the Emperor." The guards knelt down and kowtowed.
Zhang Yanling smiled and said: "Okay, then immediately get your weapons and prepare to resist the enemy. This is a good opportunity for you to get promoted and make a fortune. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
All the guards were busy standing at the bow and stern of the ship with their swords in hand, preparing to resist the enemy. Zhu Houzhao shouted: "We also have to take weapons. They are coming. Uncle, since you know his conspiracy, you will not have no arrangements. If this is the case,
What should we do if we attack?"
Zhang Yanling said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I have my own arrangements. Please forgive me for violating the palace rules. I brought firearms into the palace."
While Zhu Houzhao was stunned, Zhang Yanling lifted up his robe and took out the two short-fire muskets tied to the inside of his legs.
"This is all I can do tonight. Don't blame me, Your Majesty. I will fine myself three months of salary as punishment," Zhang Yanling said.
Zhu Houzhao smiled bitterly and said: "What are you talking about now? It would be great to have firearms. Give me one to play with. My double-barreled fire blunderbuss fell in Qianqing Palace."
Zhang Yanling smiled and said: "I brought two in, just to prepare one for the emperor. Your Majesty, watch me operate it, like this, load the bullet, aim and fire, and then turn the handle and operate it back and forth."
As Zhang Yanling spoke, he pulled the bolt of the gun to reload. Zhu Houzhao was very smart and could understand it at a glance.
Zhang Yanling felt relieved when he saw that he was operating correctly. He reached out and took out a flare from his arms, put it into the blunderbuss, pointed the muzzle upward, and pulled the trigger.
But with a booming sound, a red signal bomb shot straight into the sky, exploding into a meteor shower in the sky, which was very beautiful.
"Is this a notification to the troops outside?" Jiang Bin asked.
Zhang Yanling said with a smile: "Good grandson, that's exactly what happened. The three battalions of Fenwu Camp, Yaowu Camp, and Zhenwei Camp, with 30,000 soldiers and horses, are ready and waiting for the signal. They will come to rescue us in a moment.
."
Jiang Bin was overjoyed and secretly thought that his bet was right. He had watched Zhang Yanling make the bet. Ever since he followed Zhang Yanling to suppress the rebellion, Jiang Bin did not say anything but admired Zhang Yanling in his heart. He was inferior to him in terms of resourcefulness and courage.
A thousand miles away. Watching him fight the rebels is like cutting tofu with a knife.
Therefore, he judged that Zhang Yanling must have made arrangements for tonight's affairs. Therefore, he chose to bet on Zhang Yanling's side. Now it seems that he has indeed been prepared for it.
"Boom!" Zhu Houzhao fired at the boat approaching on the dark water.
Although it was the first time for him to use this continuous fire gun, Zhu Houzhao fired accurately. This shot hit the guards gathered on the boat.
The firing range of the bursting short-fire musket was fifty steps, and the boat was already at a distance of more than thirty steps, which was the distance needed to kill a large area. The shot was so powerful that the guards on the boat were shot with flesh and blood.
Several guards fell into the water and were unable to die for a while, screaming and flopping in the water.
"There are firearms, there are firearms." The guards shouted in horror.
Shi Wenyi yelled: "What are you afraid of when there are firearms? There are more of us, so the boats should be spread out, and we can attack them from all directions. How many firearms can they have? One or two at most."
The guards had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to attack, but the guards on the ship all lay down on the ship, using the side of the ship as a cover to protect themselves.
Zhang Yanling spotted the location of Shi Wenyi's boat and aimed his gun at him.
There was a loud gunshot, and in the light of the fire, the two guards beside Shi Wenyi screamed and fell into the water.
Shi Wenyi was unscathed. After all, it was shotgun. Shi Wenyi's ship was forty steps away, and the shotguns were too scattered. He was standing two meters behind the guard, so he failed to hit him.
Zhang Yanling cursed and reloaded quickly. Shi Wenyi was already lying in the cabin and did not dare to show his head again. Zhang Yanling had no choice but to fire at several nearby boats.
The sound of gunfire was endless. Those boats were just used for boating and fun. They were all carved and painted to look good, but they were not practical, let alone have any good protective effect. Under the continuous bombardment of two fire cannons,
The blue smoke rose and wood chips flew into the air. Several small boats that rushed nearby were directly torn apart by shotgun blasts.
For a while, the boat broke apart and fell into the water, some were injured and some fell into the water. In shock, the boat capsized and fell into the water. Dozens of people on the water were splashing, shouting, and struggling endlessly.
The injured person fluttered in the water, and the blood from the wound was scattered everywhere, and the water rippled away. No one noticed that the dozen or so black giants in the shallow water under the cliff of Qionghua Island felt the smell of blood and the danger of death.
Despite the man's struggle, they quietly dived into the water and swam quickly towards the battlefield.
Soon after, a terrifying scene happened. More than a dozen giant creatures found their feast. They got into the middle of the drowning people and launched a crazy attack. They bit the struggling people in the water with their bloody mouths, and then began a violent death roll.
.The huge body and black tail writhed on the water, tearing the flesh and blood apart and began to feast.
"Poisonous dragon! Poisonous dragon!" the guards shouted in panic, their voices changing.
Shi Wenyi also saw the poisonous dragons attacking crazily on the water, and was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits. There were a large group of poisonous dragons in the water pool on the east side of Qionghua Island. The poisonous dragons had escaped long ago and had hurt people in Taiye Pool. This happened
I actually forgot about it. I didn’t expect that a few escaped at first, but now after a few years, there are so many.
Zhang Yanling, Zhu Houzhao and others also saw the scene of the poisonous dragon biting the guards on the water. Zhang Yanling cursed: "The dog thief Liu Jin has told him to deal with all the poisonous dragons, but he just refused. This is called self-inflicted suffering. Your Majesty, the emperor is full of blessings, the poisonous dragon
Everyone comes to help.”
Zhu Houzhao's face was full of excitement and he shouted: "Bite them to death, bite them to death."
They had already been bombarded by firearms and were unable to get close, causing heavy casualties. Coupled with the attacks of a group of poisonous dragons, the guards on the dozens of grasshopper boats no longer had the intention to attack and turned around and paddled to the shore.
Shi Wenyi had no choice but to order the boat to turn around. The soldiers manning the boat were in a panic. The boat was spinning on the water and could not be operated at all. Shi Wenyi cursed and stepped forward to control the oar himself and rock it back hard.
At this moment, a huge black poisonous dragon jumped out of the water, bit Shi Wenyi's hand holding the oar, and bit his entire arm in its mouth.
Shi Wenyi screamed in panic and pulled hard. The pain and fear made him scream.
Other guards on the boat also rushed to help, grabbing Shi Wenyi's arms and legs to fight with the poisonous dragon. The two sides were in a stalemate, but the boat began to tilt and flood because half of the poisonous dragon even pressed against the side of the ship.
"The boat is going to capsize. If the boat capsizes, we will all die." A guard shouted.
The remaining people looked at each other and understood what he meant. Almost at an instant, they let go at the same time.
In the midst of the curse, Shi Wenyi was dragged into the water by the huge poisonous dragon. Shi Wenyi still wanted to struggle, but after the poisonous dragon entered the water, it became as comfortable as a dragon entering the sea. It was so powerful that it began to roll to death. Shi Wenyi's arm was violently twisted.
, the poisonous dragon raised its head and swallowed it whole in two mouthfuls.
Shi Wenyi was in so much pain that he almost fainted, but he used his last remaining consciousness to emerge from the water and shout for help. No one paid attention to him. Everyone was busy running away to the shore, and no one came to save him.
Shi Wenyi swam toward the shore. Suddenly, he felt a huge force crashing towards him. He almost flew out of the water, but he couldn't fly because the poisonous dragon had bitten his thigh at the moment of the collision.
Desperate Shi Wenyi's liver and gallbladder violently opened his mouth to scream loudly, and a large mouthful of cold water poured into his stomach. The poisonous dragon took him to dive deep into the water, and Shi Wenyi could only watch in extreme fear as the dark lake around him reached its top and annihilated himself.
