Chapter 333 The Forbidden City is crumbling! 【2 more】
Looking at the panting Imperial Guard Lieutenant lying on the ground, Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, Wu Dinghou Guo Xun rebelled?"
The Jinyi Guardsman said: "Your Majesty ordered the arrest of Guo Xun who was suffering from illness. Unexpectedly, Guo Xun got the news in advance and hid in the barracks for some reason. He actually led thousands of men under his command to rebel. At this moment... at this moment...
…”
Chu Yi stared at the imperial guard and said, "What did Guo Xun do?"
The Jinyi Guardsman spat out a mouthful of blood and said in a trembling voice: "Guo Xun is leading his troops to attack the Forbidden City!"
"What!"
Chu Yi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. To be honest, Chu Yi didn't take such a number one figure as Wu Dinghou Guo Xun seriously from the beginning.
Guo Xun was considered the number one figure among the nobles. He used to be the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, but was later recalled to the capital to be the admiral of the Three Thousand Battalions.
After the reorganization of the Beijing camp, Guo Xun was responsible for the security of the capital because of his own qualifications and abilities, with thousands of soldiers and horses under his command.
It is precisely because Admiral Guo Xun oversees thousands of troops and is responsible for public security in the capital that he is valued by Duke Mu Zhai.
Guo Ying, the ancestor of Guo Xun, was also a personal attendant of Taizu at that time, but later Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and others were sent as rewards.
Guo Xun was determined to restore the glory of his ancestors, and coupled with his own ambition, he naturally hit it off with Xie Qian.
The Queen Mother presided over the court meeting, but Guo Xun did not attend due to illness. However, he did not stay in the palace. Instead, he summoned his troops and sent his trusted followers to watch every move in the Forbidden City.
Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao naturally put their energy on the Great Court Meeting, focusing on Jiang Mian, Xie Qian and others. Even the four camps including the Beijing Camp were closely watched by the Jin Yiwei and Dongchang troops.
To prevent accidents.
But for Guo Xun, although there were Dongchang fans watching, Guo Xun was very cunning and deceived the Dongchang fans and joined the army alone.
When the Jinyi Guards and Dongchang Tiqi came out, especially when Chu Yi led his troops to Jiang Mian's mansion to capture Xie Qian, Guo Xun immediately launched a mutiny in the army after receiving the news.
Guo Xun had thousands of troops under his command, and naturally it was impossible for all of the generals to follow him to rebel and risk their lives. However, Guo Xun calculated well and unintentionally, and used bloody methods to eliminate some of the army officers, and successfully controlled thousands of troops.
in hand.
Therefore, thousands of people, deceived by Guo Xun, first went to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and robbed the prison, released many criminals imprisoned in the prison, and even rescued the Zhu family.
Then Guo Xun found out that Jiang Mian and some other officials were imprisoned in the Jinyiwei Prison, so he robbed the Jinyiwei Prison without stopping.
Whether it is the Ministry of Punishment Prison or the Jinyiwei Prison, there are only a few hundred people in custody. There is no problem in dealing with unarmed prisoners, and there is no problem even with ordinary prison robberies. The key is that Guo Xun directly led thousands of people.
In this capital city, thousands of people can really run amok.
Although all the officials said they had only been detained in the prison for only half a day, they were still frightened and embarrassed.
Looking at Guo Xun, who was dressed in military uniform and covered in blood, Jiang Mian endured the discomfort and said to Guo Xun: "Thank you so much for Wu Dinghou's rescue. I can't wait to rush out of the capital and go to the capital before the emperor and Chu Yi can react."
Jiangnan, go to Prince Ning!
When Guo Xun heard this, his eyes showed a bit of disdain and said: "Everyone, the emperor and Chu Yi were too careless. They never thought that I could control the troops and directly raise troops to rebel!"
Hearing what Guo Xun said, these officials who were rescued by Guo Xun all sighed in their hearts. Not to mention the emperor and Chu Yi, even in their dreams, Guo Xun could actually lead his men in the capital.
Rampage rescued them from the prison.
Although I had heard that Guo Xun was extremely capable, I never thought that Guo Xun had such means and courage.
Seeing that Guo Xun didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave the capital, Jiang Mian took a deep breath and looked at Guo Xun and said: "Wu Dinghou, do you have a better place to go?"
Jiang Mian and the others are really scared. They know very well what the consequences will be if they are imprisoned in the prison. With the temperament of Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao, they will definitely not let them go. They are afraid that the Meridian Gate will be inevitable by then.
I took a walk outside.
Therefore, the capital was a place of death for them. Once out of prison, they did not want to stay in the capital for a moment, so they hurriedly suggested that Guo Xun leave the capital and go to Jiangnan.
Jiangnan is where their foundation lies. Once they reach Jiangnan, the imperial court's control is drastically reduced, and they have the means and ability to save their own lives.
Guo Xun's eyes flashed and he said: "I am moving very quickly. It has only been half an hour since I raised my troops. At this time, it is absolutely impossible for either the palace or Chu Yi, who has sealed off the barracks, to receive any information about me."
Waiting for news of the rebellion!"
Just as Guo Xun said, in order to clean several barracks, Chu Yi indeed ordered the barracks to be sealed off, isolating the inside and outside. The Jinyi Guards and the people reporting in the East Factory were unable to determine the whereabouts of Chu Yi.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken so long to find Chu Yi.
Jiang Mian looked at Guo Xun doubtfully and said: "Wu Dinghou, you..."
Looking at the sky, Guo Xun sneered, his eyes flashing with madness and said: "My lords, do you dare to follow me to meet the emperor..."
"What...Wu Dinghou, are you crazy?"
All the officials were really swayed by Guo Xun's thoughts. Guo Xun actually wanted to go to see the emperor. Wasn't he going to seek death on his own?
Guo Xun sneered and said with a ferocious look on his face: "I will lead thousands of troops directly into the Forbidden City. When I introduce it, I will implore your majesty to personally order Chu Yi to death. Don't you, your lords, want to join me in this grand event?
?”
Many officials couldn't help but their eyes lit up, but they subconsciously forgot that Guo Xun had thousands of troops under his command.
With thousands of soldiers and horses in hand, if they were to attack the Forbidden City, they might not be able to break into the Forbidden City before Chu Yi and others could react.
As long as they break into the Forbidden City and take the Emperor Zhu Houzhao into their hands, won't they still have the final say in the capital?
Thinking of this, many officials couldn't help but breathe a little faster. It had to be said that the future described by Guo Xun was so tempting that even these officials couldn't help but feel an impulse.
If they could really do what Guo Xun said, then there would be no need for them to flee to the south of the Yangtze River. By then they would hold the emperor in their hands, and wouldn't they have the final say in this world?
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Mian gritted his teeth and looked at Guo Xun and said, "Marquis Wu Ding, how sure are you?"
Guo Xun sneered and said: "Even if I am only a little sure, I will fight hard. Why, you are probably afraid. If you are afraid, you can leave. I will never stop you!
"
Hearing what Guo Xun said, some officials couldn't help cursing in their hearts. They said it nicely. Even if Guo Xun really let them go, they still dared to leave alone.
They were prisoners of the imperial court, so it was no big deal if they were protected by Guo Xun's army, but once they were separated from the protection of the army, it would be strange that they could escape from the capital.
Seeing that all the officials were silent, Guo Xun stroked his beard with his blood-stained hand and said: "It seems that you are all planning to participate in the grand event with me. In this case, we will set off now."
"Everyone, please follow me to meet the Emperor!"
The rumble of troops and horses headed straight for the Forbidden City.
Guo Xu has thousands of troops under his command, and hundreds of confidants roaming around. Anyone who dares to fall behind or tries to escape will be killed on the spot.
These soldiers were not fools. If they were deceived by Guo Xu at the beginning, then when Guo Xun led them to attack the Criminal Department and the Jinyiwei prison, even fools would know that they had been deceived by Guo Xun.
At this time, someone naturally jumped out and tried to break away from the team, but Guo Xun, who was there, had naturally been prepared to kill those people cleanly and threaten everyone.
Guo Xun told everyone that they had robbed the prison of the Ministry of Justice and the Jin Yiwei, and had become rebels. Even if they were coerced, they were still rebels. They could only follow him all the way to the dark side to have any hope of survival.
Some people broke the jars, and some were forced by Guo Xun's cruel methods. Anyway, thousands of troops looked amazing, but in fact the military morale was chaotic and they didn't have much fighting power at all.
But even if the military's morale is chaotic, those thousands of people are quite scary.
Even if thousands of pigs charge together, they can still trample people to death.
Not to mention that some of these people were maintained by die-hard loyalists bribed by Guo Xun. It looked like thousands of people were like a torrent, which was really shocking to watch.
Forbidden City
The Forbidden City has never experienced any disasters caused by weapons, so when Guo Xun led thousands of troops outside the Forbidden City, he indeed suppressed many people.
Hu Yi, the commander of the imperial army, stood on the high wall and looked at the group of people headed by Guo Xun in front of him with a solemn expression.
Guo Xun drew his sword and stood up, pointed at Hu Yi and said: "Hu Yi, open the palace door quickly, I will spare your life, and even grant you glory and wealth..."
Hu Yi looked at Guo Xun, and then at the crowd of people behind him. He didn't know that Guo Xun was rebelling.
Taking a deep breath, Hu Yi stared at Guo Xun and shouted loudly: "Guo Xun, do you know what you are doing? I advise you to put down the butcher's knife and surrender without mercy. The emperor is kind and may give you a good time!"
Guo Xun laughed loudly and said: "It's really funny. I don't need Zhu Houzhao's kindness. I will go to see Zhu Houzhao personally. Now I am counting to three. If the palace door is not opened, then I will order a storm! Once it is broken, I will
At the palace gate, I will order your corpses to be cut into pieces!"
