Everyone listened with Tian Jianxiu's words and then heard the sound of fighting coming from outside the palace wall, which was also mixed with the roar of gunfire.
Niu Jinxing hurriedly ran behind Zhang Nai, grabbed his clothes, and urged: "Yihou, Yihou, make a decision!"
Zhang Nai seems to be still sleepwalking, although yesterday Tian Jianxiu and Niu Jinxing have told everything that will happen today. Zhang Nai has also made the decision to put Li Guo, Li Laiheng and his son under house arrest, but he really takes it as it happened.
At that time, he realized that he was completely unprepared and could not rebel against Li Guo and his son.
Gao Yigong also drew his sword, but he did not choose to protect Li Guo and Empress Dowager Gao like Zhang Hong, but got in front of Li Laiheng.
Gao Yigong held his sword in front of him, turned his back to Li Laiheng and asked in a low voice: "Laiheng... are you prepared?"
Li Laiheng looked at the tense scene in Prince Jin's palace, and then looked at Li Guo sitting there with the old god in his sight, and said with a wry smile:
"Things haven't reached the worst yet."
Under Niu Jinxing's repeated urging, Zhang Nai hurriedly pulled out his weapon. But after all, he was the leading brave general in the Dashun Army. After taking off his uniform, he was wearing a half-length chainmail underneath, and the iron ring shook, still
It made Li Laiheng feel shocked.
Outside the Jin Palace, Dang Shousu and Wu Ruyi had brought a group of Tian Jianxiu selected from the middle camp, and Zhang Nai's best friends began to storm the gate. Almost all of these people were from the elite Suwei cavalry led by Zhang Nai for a long time, but they
Most people didn't know what they were doing. It was just because this was the order of Tian Jianxiu and Zhang Nai that they were driven by inertia to attack the Jin Palace.
Some people are also wondering, isn't this a rebellion?
The reason Wu Ruyi used to incite the soldiers was that Jin King Li Laiheng was harboring the rebels in Cao Ying, but it was only a reason of this level and lacked sufficient driving force at this time.
There are only a few people, estimated to be one or two hundred people. These people are the most die-hard loyalists of Tian Jianxiu and Zhang Nai. Only these people are completely mobilized for the phrase "the righteous marquis will be the emperor".
Dang Shousu has noticed that the morale of the troops is very problematic. Not far from the city is the surging Yellow River. On the north bank of the Yellow River are a large number of Chu soldiers, counting in the thousands or tens of thousands. If they fail to attack, everyone may be
Will be counterattacked by Li Laiheng.
Dang Shousu gritted his teeth and shouted:
"This is the Hongmen Banquet! Li Laiheng imprisons Yihou! Rescue Yihou and let him sit on the dragon's throne!"
Wu Ruyi also shouted: "Tian Gong, Niu Xiang... Yuan Shuai all support us! The east gate defenders of the right camp have been mobilized together. Under the pincer attack, Li Laiheng will definitely die!"
According to the plan, Yuan Zongdi's right battalion should first secure the east gate, and then mobilize troops to join forces with Dang Shousu and Wu Ruyi to flank the Jin Palace and deal with Li Guo. After Li Laiheng, they can also control all the Shunjun generals who gathered at the wedding.
live.
With such great success, the country naturally fell into their hands.
But Dang Shousu felt strongly uneasy. Why haven't the soldiers from the right camp arrived yet?
boom!
With an astonishing sound of artillery, the crowd attacking the Jin Palace suddenly stopped. The soldiers were unprepared and were immediately swept away by the shells. In an instant, the platform in front of the palace was covered with the blood of the Dashun Army soldiers. Many people
The limbs were broken by the shells, the broken arms and thighs fell on the red cloth carpet, and the horrible intestines continued to flow out of the torn lower abdomen.
"Hide—avoid—"
Dang Shousu just shouted these words, followed by the sound of several more cannons. The salutes in Prince Jin's palace, those salutes tied with red ribbons, actually aimed at the mutinous troops attacking the city and opened fire!
Tian Jianxiu in the Jin Palace heard the sound of cannons, and his face became very ugly. His eyes were bloodshot due to excessive anger, and his right hand was trembling, and he could hardly hold the sword.
"Li Guo... Li Chong'er...! You are shameless! Shuangxi, let's take action and capture Li Guo and Li Chong'er first!"
Tian Jianxiu didn't care what mistakes were made by the mutinous troops in the Jin Palace, but he was confident that even in the palace, the troops he controlled had an advantage, and with brave generals like Zhang Nai, capturing Li Guo and Li Laiheng would not be a problem.
.
His face became extremely ferocious, and Niu Jinxing also panicked and pulled out a dagger from his boots. After holding it tightly, he shouted: "Yihou Yihou, do it quickly!"
Without waiting for Zhang Nai to take action, all the soldiers Tian Jianxiu and others brought into the Jin Palace rushed forward. Although Li Guo and Liu Fangliang each brought some guards, the number was not as large as Tian Jianxiu's, and their guards only
They only wore formal clothes and short weapons. Unlike Tian Mixiu who had prepared in advance, many people wore chain mail or cloth armor under the formal clothes, and many weapons were hidden in the gifts.
Li Laiheng hugged Youci, covered Youci's eyes tightly with his headband, and told her in a low voice:
"You can't open your eyes until I say yes..."
The two literary men Fang Yiren and Gu Junen had already left their seats. They all followed Bai Wang and rushed to Li Laiheng and Gao Yigong. Sun Shoufa and Li Maoheng, the two generals of the Jin Palace, did not know where they were at this time. Chu in the palace
The strength to break into a faction is simply inexplicably weak.
Under the red ribbons, the soldiers of the middle camp of the Dashun Army, the soldiers of the left camp of the Dashun Army, and the soldiers of the front camp of the Dashun Army fought together into a group.
Although the number of each party is not large, these people are all personal guards of the generals. It can be said that they are the most confidant forces of the generals of Yuancong in Dashun.
After a sudden mutiny occurred, these trusted guards had to risk their lives to protect their commander.
The battle situation was so tragic that even Li Laiheng was frightened.
Liu Fangliang rolled around on the ground and avoided the attack of the soldiers in the middle camp. He did not carry any weapons. He pointed at Tian Jianxiu and Zhang Nai and cursed:
"Are you crazy? You yourselves know how Brother Guo treats you. He went so far as to do things to such an extent... The late emperor's bones are still cold, Tian Jianxiu, how can you be so shameless!"
Tian Jianxiu's face was stained with someone's blood. After spitting, he looked at Yuan Zongdi and said:
"Hanju, do it quickly, we can't make any mistakes."
Yuan Zongdi looked uneasy, and said with a very bitter look on his face:
"Yufeng, how many times have I advised you not to take risks when marching. Can you still count them?"
When Tian Jianxiu heard this sentence, his whole expression became completely dull.
Niu Jinxing exclaimed: "Where are Liu...Liu Tichun and Yuan Zongdao? Where are the soldiers from the right camp?"
Li Guo, who had always been around the old god, finally stood up. He coughed twice more and sighed:
"Liu Tichun told me everything... Yufeng, Shuangxi, Yuan Zongdi and Liu Tichun tried their best to persuade you in vain. They were not willing to let the Dashun army fight with each other, so they had to tell me about your affairs and let me stop it.
you."
Ma Chongxi took a step forward and said harshly: "Liu Tichun, Yuan Zongdao has already led troops to protect the Prince of Jin's Mansion, and the pro-army soldiers of the Supervisory State have also been deployed around the Prince of Jin's Mansion... You'd better just surrender without mercy."
"ah!"
Niu Jinxing yelled, losing strength in his hands and fell to the ground. Even the dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Tian Jianxiu pointed his finger at Yuan Zongdi, his eyes widened, and he looked like he wanted to kill someone, but in the end he couldn't say a word.
Just when Li Guo sighed slightly and wanted to persuade Tian Jianxiu again, Tian Jianxiu and the soldiers around Niu Jinxing suddenly took out their blunderbuss from the congratulatory gifts sent from the middle camp, and with a bang, guns and cannons
Salvo.
Zhang Hong exclaimed "No!" and immediately jumped out and knocked Li Guo down. The seats behind everyone were immediately smashed into pieces, and several guards were shot and wounded.
Tian Jianxiu cursed like a madman:
"Yuan Hanju...you don't want to move forward with me, so I have to go with you...you don't know what is good or bad!"
Li Laiheng shook his head silently, thinking to himself that Tian Jianxiu's ambition was finally completely ignited by him... His adoptive father's preparations were adequate, but unfortunately they were still not perfect...
"History is never changed by conspiracy."
Li Laiheng put his ear to Fang Yiren's ear and whispered lightly amid the chaos of the rebellion.
