Gui Zi Scroll Chapter 729: Assault, Breaking the Situation (1)
The area of Yongfang Temple in Dashi is facing the Chengtian Gate, and the Meridian Gate area is the most concentrated area of official offices inherited from the pre-Ming Dynasty.
It can be said that except for the Fucai Fang in the west where the Sanfa Department was located, most of the official offices of the Zhou Dynasty were located here.
Taking the central axis as the demarcation line, to the west is the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, Long Jinwei, General Affairs Department, and Taichang Temple.
To the east are Qibu, Hanlin Academy, Wenyuan Pavilion, Shanglinyuanjian, Luanjiaku, Qintianjian, Honglu Temple, Imperial Hospital, Huitong South Hall, and Zhan Shifu.
Except for Qibu and Wenyuan Pavilion, this area to the east is still quite large and belongs to the Qingshui Yamen series.
Due to the large area, although the flag-bearing guards took the lead and controlled the entire area, in fact, except for the Wenyuan Pavilion, the cabinet ministers and the officials of Qibu Gongli, the other departments were basically simply blocked.
After a while, there was no restriction on the freedom of these people, so after the confusion, these officials all sneaked back home, and there were really not many people in the yamen.
In other words, although this building complex is large in area and has many houses, there are actually not many people inside, and the defense of the flagbearers is also very weak and fragile.
So after Feng Ziying ordered Ma Jinbao and He Zhisheng to capture this area in one go no matter what, and then directly break into Qibu and Wenyuan Pavilion from Honglu Temple, Imperial Medicine Storehouse and Qintian Prison, Ma Jinbao and He Zhisheng both understood that they would not hesitate to do so.
We must take back the initiative at all costs.
There is no other way.
If the control of these civil servants is not regained in time, and once some of these civil servants are bribed or attracted to Li Sancai's side, the situation will quickly reverse, especially if Emperor Wan Tong replaces him.
If they endorse it, then Qi Yongtai and his gang will immediately become traitorous officials who should be betrayed by the Qing emperor, and even himself will be reduced to a loser.
Ma Jinbao was cruel. At this age, his six sons, as long as this battle was fought, the three generations of the Ma family's wealth would basically be stable. Even if he lost his life, he would even have to bear this responsibility with his two sons.
The risks are all worth it.
Feng Ziying was quite touched by Ma Jinbao's offer to join the battle in person, and it would take these veteran gangsters to be willing to give it a go at the critical moment. With Ma Jinbao's identity, he could arrange for a deputy or subordinate to take the risk.
It was dangerous, but he took the initiative to volunteer.
Based on this alone, as long as this battle is over and as long as the Feng family survives, they must take good care of their Ma family. If they can do well in the future, then the entire Ma family will be able to follow suit and prosper.
There are no long-barreled heavy artillery, only tiger crouching artillery. In fact, it is of little significance in this kind of street fighting. Even the attack of firecrackers will be greatly restricted. Instead, swords, shields and spears are used between the houses in such streets and alleys.
In the battle of battle, the advantage of close combat can be more fully utilized.
However, the combat method of using three or five fire gunmen with triangular spikes in groups greatly makes up for the shortcomings of fire gunmen. This small group attack mode is more lethal and impactful.
In order to leave more time for the attack, Ma Jinbao even took the initiative to reduce his troops to a thousand men, including 400 sword and shield bearers and 600 fire gunmen. He personally led a team, and the other two deputies led each.
One group launched charges from three directions: Hanlin Academy, Taiyuan Hospital, and Honglu Temple.
In order to cooperate with Ma Jinbao's assault, Feng Ziying also mobilized more than 20 elite guards who had followed him back to cooperate with Ma Jinbao and others to launch the attack. The main purpose was to use one force in the final assault and avoid the flag-bearer and guard dog from jumping over the wall as much as possible.
The murderous intention is to take all the civil servants and officials as hostages or even silence them, so that they can play a rescue role at critical moments.
Of course this possibility is not high.
The time to choose to launch an attack is the ugly time. This is the time when human beings are most sleepy. In addition, in the eyes of the flag bearer, this area is not an area that attaches much importance to. He did not expect that the opponent would detour to the southeast direction.
Launch an assault on this area.
The sudden attack achieved great results from the beginning. Three arrows were fired simultaneously. Ma Jinbao led this unit to go to the Hanlin Academy side of the northern route.
After a successful attack, there were not many officials in the Hanlin Academy. In the dark night, Ma Jinbao led his army to rush in, killing more than ten flag-bearing guards in one fell swoop, and quickly took control of the Hanlin Academy.
The Hanlin Academy, with only seven or eight officials trapped in it, was controlled, but this was not the goal, the goal was the Wenyuan Pavilion next to it.
Several cabinet ministers, including Qi Yongtai, were imprisoned here.
Although the guarding of the Hanlin Academy and other peripheral departments is not so strict, the guarding of Wenyuan Pavilion is paid special attention to.
Qi Yongtai, Gu Bingqian, Guan Yingzhen, and Huang Ruliang are all extremely important roles. It can be said that although it is impossible for them to accept Li Sancai's conditions now, as long as they are trapped, they will take the initiative. Once they lose their control
Quan, that means the situation is reversed.
Hearing the loud shouts of killing and the firing of guns and cannons all around, the group of people who woke up from their sleep looked at each other in shock.
I have been imprisoned here for two days. From being filled with indignation at the beginning to gradually facing the reality, then to being a little irritable and eager, to now being surprised and confused, several of them can be regarded as experienced veterans, and they can even
He said he didn't care much about his own safety.
Li Sancai came to talk to me twice, but without exception, he was scolded and left in embarrassment.
They also knew that Li Sancai must have been constantly lobbying to win over his colleagues in the seven departments of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Important ministers were not easily persuaded to win over, but the same could not be said for backbone officials such as Langzhong, Yuanwailang and principals, especially among them.
When some people see that their career path has reached the ceiling, they may not want to make a breakthrough when they suddenly get this opportunity.
Of course, these people cannot change the overall situation for the time being, nor can they replace the attitude of the important ministers, but as long as there is a beginning and it is delayed for another two or three days, I am afraid that some of the important ministers may change their minds.
Once you have a beginning, it's hard to tell what happens next.
This is also the reason why many people are restless.
Qi Yongtai also regretted that he should have acted decisively earlier and should not have had good intentions. At least he should have called Feng Ziying back earlier and dealt with this kind of chaos much more calmly.
After all, we have to deal with people like Jingying, Shangsanqinjun and Longjingwei. We are not very familiar with these people and have little experience. We don’t know what these people are thinking and why they left.
to this point.
Without this experience, you will lack the rhetorical means to deal with it. ()
