Wu Yaya stood in the courtyard full of people, but there was only the occasional crackling sound when the torch was burning.
Wang Xian coughed and finally spoke: "Are the men and horses of each team ready?"
"Come back to me, sir, everything is ready!"
"Go back to the military division, everything is ready!"
All the subordinates responded in a deep voice.
"Open the bamboo tubes in each hand," Wang Xian said in a deep voice: "The one above is your target for tonight's action." As he said, he looked up at the occasional corner of the moon in the sky and said, "The period from the beginning of Haishi to the end of Yinshi
Time, you can seize as much as you can, and immediately withdraw your troops as soon as Yin Shi passes, do you understand?!"
"Here!" All the generals responded in unison.
"Is it Haishi?" Wang Xian looked at Shuai Hui.
"We're here!" Shuai Hui announced loudly.
"Let's go out separately!" Wang Xian said solemnly: "If gods stand in the way, they will kill the gods; if they stand in the way of the Buddha, they will kill the Buddha!"
"Here!" The generals shouted in unison, bowed to Wang Xian and then filed out. After a while, the entire Zhenfusi Yamen was boiling. After a while, the front and rear doors of the Yamen opened, and groups of people wearing black clothes
The royal guards lined up and came out.
The same scene was played out in the military camp of the Prefectural Army avant-garde. Tens of thousands of Prefectural Army avant-garde officers and soldiers dressed in black, fully armed, marched out of the barracks and attacked every corner of the capital.
The same scene was being staged outside the capital. On the pretext of training, the 20,000 avant-garde officers and soldiers of the government troops who left the city two days ago were also dressed in black and fully armed and were attacking all over the capital!
The quiet summer night was disrupted by the sound of war and chaos. The common people woke up from their sleep and looked out through the cracks in the door in panic. They saw officers and soldiers everywhere on the street, and officials from Yingtian Mansion were beating gongs and shouting:
"The government catches bandits, but idlers avoid them! The government catches bandits, and idlers avoid them!"
Seeing that there was no rebellion, the people felt relieved, and then worriedly closed the doors and windows, lest any thieves could escape.
Those gang members on the 100 Evil List were dumbfounded. They only received the order from their ancestors in the afternoon, asking them to gather in one place to defend themselves against the enemy, so as not to be defeated individually. In the evening, they had just gathered together with their younger brothers,
In the evening, while drinking and discussing how to deal with the situation at hand, they heard a commotion outside... If Ji Gang hadn't sent people to bring crossbows and muskets in the afternoon, they would have thought that the surnamed Ji was playing a game of rabbits and dead dogs.
It's a trick to get them together so they can close the door and beat the dog!
The notorious Black Tiger Gang leader in the south of the city is a large courtyard with high walls. There is also a tyrant in the south of the city, the Black Tiger boss, who is ranked tenth on the 100 worst list. His subordinates are only famous on the 100 worst list.
There are five people, who can be said to be the largest evil force in the south of the city. Therefore, after receiving the secret order from their ancestors, the bosses of various gangs in the south of the city took their younger brothers and hid in the headquarters of the Black Tiger Gang. There were thousands of people from more than a dozen gangs,
In addition to the more than 300 people from the Black Tiger Gang, the huge yard was filled to the brim.
Naturally, such a big movement could not be hidden from the spies of Beizhen Fusi, so this place became the focus of the raid by the army. Almost immediately, thousands of officers and soldiers surrounded the Black Tiger Gang's chief helmsman!
"Brother, it's not good, the crowd outside is full of officers and soldiers!" The golden retriever, ranked 66th on the list of 100 evils, ran in with a look of horror and said to Brother Black Tiger: "Didn't our ancestors say we would send troops?"
Are you blocking them and not letting them out?"
"Who would have thought that they would start tonight!" Black Tiger can be ranked among the top ten evildoers in the capital, so he is naturally not an ordinary person. He said solemnly: "Although there is no emperor in this capital, you still have to follow the rules when doing things. Our ancestors are
If you want to mobilize troops to surround the Zhenfu Division, the fastest you can do is tomorrow..."
"But why can Fusi of Beizhen mobilize his troops whenever he wants?" shouted the leader of the Wuyi Gang in the south of the city, ranked 50th on the list of villains.
"They... don't follow the rules." Brother Black Tiger was also depressed.
"Brother, now is not the time to talk nonsense, think about what to do quickly?" Lin Hai, the 46th-ranked "Flower Fox and Marten" on the villain list, was worried.
"Don't panic. Our Black Tiger Hall has been in business for several years. It looks like an ordinary deep house on the outside, but in fact it is full of government agencies and fortifications." As expected of the Black Tiger eldest brother, he still said calmly: "They are the most elite.
The army is outside, and there is no way we can even attack it without a commander!"
"In a few hours, it would be nice to be brave..." Everyone felt a little relieved, thinking that in a few hours, there would be enough people from the Jin Yiwei to come for reinforcements.
"Everyone!" Looking at the gang bosses in the hall, Black Tiger boss felt that he should give an impassioned speech to completely establish the image of a leader in the hearts of everyone.
Everyone looked at Black Tiger, only to hear Black Tiger's loud voice: "The so-called cross-currents of the sea show the true qualities of a hero. At this time of life and death, we must lead our brothers to fight the enemy in a bloody battle to the end, so as not to fall into the sky!"
Before he finished speaking, he heard an earth-shaking loud noise outside, which was so shocking that the Black Tiger boss immediately forgot his words, "Well, I am in the same boat, and I share life and death with you..."
Before he finished speaking, there was another loud noise, which shook the roof beams and made dust fall. Heihu also completely lost the interest in the speech, and asked angrily: "What's going on?!"
"Brother, big brother," another leader stumbled in and said with panic written on his face: "Something bad is going to happen!"
"Calm down, the sky won't fall!" Black Tiger boss scolded with a dark face.
"The officers and soldiers used explosives to blow up a section of the courtyard wall, and even pushed up the Hongwu cannon..." The leader's next sentence shocked Black Tiger so much that he sat down on the golden chair.
"What?" Heihu couldn't believe it. Is Beizhen Fusi crazy? Not to mention using explosives to blow up the wall, he actually used the Hongwu cannon, the ultimate weapon of the Ming army to attack the city.
"Hei, Black Tiger Boss," a gang leader said, his face turned pale with fright: "What should we do now? Our firecrackers and crossbows can't fight against cannons!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a loud blast of a cannon, and a cannonball hit the Black Tiger Hall with thunderous force. It shattered the doors and windows and hit the picture of the tiger descending the mountain heavily on the wall.
Everyone in the hall was so frightened that they all fell to the ground. When they looked up from the fear, they saw that the ferocious tiger's head on the wall had turned into an iron ball emitting white smoke...
"Hey, with the addition of Wangshan as you mentioned, the shot is quite accurate." Seeing that the shot hit the Black Tiger Hall, Cheng Zheng sighed with dissatisfaction: "It's a pity that the explosive bombs that your Excellency mentioned have not been developed yet.
, otherwise the battle will be over right now.”
"Don't ask too much..." Wang Xian, who was wearing a black cloak, said with a faint smile: "You can't become fat with just one bite."
"This is the only way..." Cheng Zheng sighed and shouted loudly: "Children, fire all the cannonballs in!"
"Here!" The gunners followed the order, and the five Hongwu cannons fired at full fire. Shells roared into the courtyard one after another. Although the shells were solid and would not explode, their power was astonishing. Let alone being hit by
If you hit it, even if you just scratch it, it will take half your life. The yard is crowded with people, and one cannonball can hit more than ten people, and the screams are continuous!
The darkness amplified the fear, and the screams were heard endlessly. All the gang members in the yard lay on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads...
"Charge!" As soon as the sound of the cannon fell, the soldiers of the vanguard of the government rushed into the courtyard. These officers and soldiers who had been baptized by successive battles, whether in individual combat or in coordination with formations, were already outstanding elites in the Ming army. They were ruthless
They wielded their weapons like sharp knives cutting tofu, advancing quickly to encircle them, dividing and surrounding the gang members in the courtyard, slashing and killing lives one by one like harvesting crops. The courtyard suddenly turned into a Shura fighting arena, and blood soon began to flow.
Make a river!
Those gang members usually fought bravely and claimed to kill without blinking an eye, but they had never seen such an inhumane massacre. For a while, many people were so frightened that they cried for their fathers and screamed for their mothers, and excrement and urine were flowing out, without any resistance.
The merit...
Many gang members dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy. The remaining diehards hurriedly retreated outside the Black Tiger Hall to resist. In just a short while, the defense system that the Black Tiger boss was proud of collapsed. This is the elite army.
The disparity in strength between the gang members!
In the Black Tiger Hall, which had been riddled with holes by shells, the firelight reflected the panicked faces. Everyone looked at the Black Tiger boss, wanting to see what else he could do?
The boss of Black Tiger already had his eyes split open. The foundation of Black Tiger Hall for more than ten years was destroyed in one fell swoop. His heart was bleeding. He pulled out the shining tiger head knife and roared: "Grandma, I will fight them desperately."
Got it!"
"Brother, calm down. You can keep the green hills without worrying about firewood!" The golden retriever and the fox marten hurriedly grabbed him and said sadly: "If you go out now, you will die! Let's retreat from the secret passage!"
"What about the brothers outside?" other gang leaders asked hurriedly.
"We can't care about that much anymore. As long as they surrender, how can the government kill them all?" The golden retriever said: "But the government will not spare our lives!"
"..." Everyone fell silent for a moment, obviously acquiescing to his reasoning.
Huahu Diao pulled away the golden chair of the Black Tiger boss, revealing a dark secret passage. "This is the secret passage that our Black Tiger Hall spent a lot of effort to dig, leading all the way to the Qinhuai River. I didn't expect it to be used today!"
"Hey... let's go!" The black tiger boss said with blood dripping from his eyes and his steel teeth shattered: "Today's revenge will be paid with blood in the future!"
"Blood debt must be paid with blood!" Everyone left the scene behind and followed the Black Tiger boss into the secret passage.
Those who say harsh words and can be fulfilled like Wang Xian, are called revenge! People like them who just do it to save face can only be regarded as empty words...
Soon, the diehards who were fighting to the death outside found that the Black Tiger Hall was empty. They immediately greeted the eighteen generations of ancestors of the bosses in unison. Suddenly, they no longer had the courage to fight. They all discarded their weapons and knelt down with their heads in hand to surrender...
The shouts of killing in the courtyard soon stopped. The soldiers rushed into the Black Tiger Hall and found that there was no one inside. They were all dumbfounded.
