With a pop, the clan elder's eyes turned black and he fell down. Many people in the Hu clan were in an uproar after hearing this.
Intention of rebellion is a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan. Even if the Hu family is a powerful party, they cannot afford such a big crime.
Just when many members of the Hu clan looked panicked, a figure walked over. It was Hu Ding's eldest son, Hu Guowei.
As the eldest son of Hu Ding, Hu Guowei can be said to be the next head of the Hu family. He naturally has a very high prestige. His eyes swept across the panicked clansmen. The fierce look in his eyes made many people shut their mouths instantly and did not dare to say anything more.
say what.
Turning around and boarding the high platform, Hu Guowei looked at the crowd of officers and soldiers surrounding the Hu Mansion and was horrified in his heart. As a big salt merchant, the Hu family naturally had to cultivate desperadoes. Otherwise, they would never be able to keep such a huge profit without enough strength.
Liveable.
Therefore, Hu Guowei had come into contact with too many brave people, and had experience fighting against many soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. However, he had never seen any Ming Dynasty team that could compare with the one in front of him.
Especially since these soldiers had just slaughtered hundreds of mobs, they were full of evil spirits, and the blood stains on their bodies, instead of causing chaos, made the soldiers a little more shocking.
Taking a deep breath, Hu Guowei sneered at Cao Shaoqin and others: "The eunuchs should not be allowed to slander others. As the saying goes, there is no need to punish others. My Hu family is a good citizen who pays taxes, and Hu is a scholar with a great reputation. My family
The master is the Minister of Rites of the day, Cheng Yi Gong, you are falsely preaching the imperial edict, and your intentions are to be punished!"
Cao Shaoqin couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said to Shi Kui on the side: "General Shi, what should I do if I resist the order and disrespect it?"
Shi Kui said coldly: "Kill without mercy!"
The cold voice echoed over the Hu family. Many people in the Hu family felt chilled in their hearts and looked towards Hu Guowei subconsciously.
Hu Guowei knew in his heart that he could never let the officers and soldiers rush into the house. He had to block it. There was still hope for the Hu family, but if they just surrendered, there would really be no hope at all.
Just before the tea time, the Hu family's servant general Chu Yi massacred the tenants arranged by the Hu family in the Dongchang stronghold.
From that moment on, Hu Guowei knew that the Hu family would definitely come into Chu Yi's sight, but he did not expect that Chu Yi would be so ruthless and move so fast, without even giving the Hu family time to react.
.
Therefore, the Hu family must not fall into the hands of Dongchang, otherwise they will definitely die.
A ruthless look flashed in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and waved his hand, and the brave and brave soldiers he had summoned climbed up the high wall one by one with sharp weapons to confront him.
At the same time, Hu Guowei said to a young man: "Second brother, eldest brother is here to hold off these officers and soldiers. You go out of the secret passage and go to find your father quickly. You must ask him to go and invite the Duke of the country, otherwise I, Hu, will
The entire clan will be harmed by eunuchs!"
The young man glanced at Hu Guowei, then turned and left under the leadership of an old servant.
The figures holding murderous weapons on the high wall of the Hu family's mansion fell into Cao Shaoqin's eyes, and Cao Shaoqin couldn't help but laugh, and said while laughing: "What a Hu family, the governor has really not wronged you.
Hiding weapons and raising dead soldiers..."
If possible, how could Hu Guowei be willing to expose these dead soldiers cultivated by the Hu family? But there is still hope if we try hard. If we don't try hard, the Hu family will really be doomed.
Hu Guowei would not believe that Chu Yi would let the Hu family go after he sent people to capture them. You must know that the Hu family gathered a mob to try to surround Chu Yi. Anyway, if he were Chu Yi, he would definitely raze the Hu family to the ground.
.
Hu Guowei is not a fool, but there are not many choices left for him. To advance is to die, and to retreat is also death. Why should he sit still and wait for death.
Being able to start a business as a private person, the Hu family is naturally not a law-abiding and law-abiding person at heart.
"General Shi, the rest is up to you!"
Shi Kui nodded slightly, his eyes fell on the dead soldiers holding murderous weapons on the high wall, and he shouted in a low voice: "Soldiers, kill them!"
Suddenly arrows shot out, and at the same time the elite soldiers in armor roared forward.
Hu Guowei held a simple knife in his hand, with a fierce look on his face and shouted: "Block it, block it!"
There are many wealthy businessmen and dignitaries from Nanjing City around the Hu Family Manor. Even a deaf person would be alarmed by such a big movement.
When Cao Shaoqin led a large army to surround the Hu family, many people watched from a distance with a kind of excitement. They never thought that it would evolve to such an extent in just a blink of an eye.
In particular, the figures of dead soldiers from the Hu family appeared on the high wall. Those dead soldiers were not afraid of death and held murderous weapons. Even the soldiers and horses of the imperial court dared to fight against them. This immediately made many gentry and powerful people feel chills in their hearts.
Crazy, really crazy.
It was crazy enough that Chu Yi massacred hundreds of mobs, but now they suddenly felt that compared to Chu Yi, the Hu family was really a crazy family.
In a courtyard, a wealthy gentleman watched the Hu family in the distance being forced to fight against the imperial army. He couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, and said in a trembling voice: "What a Chu Yi, he is going to force the Hu family to a dead end!"
On top of a tall building, a scribe looked at the chaotic scene in the distance, frowned, stroking his beard and sighed: "The Hu family is finished!"
In a courtyard not far away, an old man in official attire was sitting in a pavilion. Listening to the shouts of killing coming from the distance, he pushed a glass of water and wine in front of a white-haired old man opposite and said: "Muzhai Gong.
, the Hu family is completely finished, what should we do next?"
The old man known as Muzhai Gong stroked his beard, calmed down, drank a glass of water and wine and smiled slightly: "It's just that we underestimated Chu Yi's ruthlessness and decisiveness, but I don't believe that he dares to massacre Jiangnan. If
As expected, he wants to kill people to establish his authority, but unfortunately, a mere Hu family is nothing. Not only will this move fail to shock people's hearts, but it will lead to everyone's crazy counterattack!"
The official was stunned for a moment, nodded slowly and said, "What Muzhaigong said is true, but this official is stupid!"
Mu Zhaigong glanced in the direction of the Hu family, with a hint of worry in his eyes: "The Hu family has gone too far!"
The senior official immediately understood after hearing this. What the old man was referring to was that the Hu family actually raised dead soldiers to fight against the imperial army. After all, they were in the officialdom, and what they hated most was this kind of lunatic who would flip the table over at every turn.
Chu Yi is one, and so is the Hu family.
The dead soldiers raised by the Hu family came from Yanding. Each one was braver than the last. It can be said that the personal bravery even exceeded the soldiers of Shi Kui's men. However, they were nothing more than a pile of loose sand. It was just a matter of time for a cup of tea. Dozens of brave dead soldiers were beheaded one by one.
They were killed on the spot, but only three of Shi Kui's soldiers were killed and a few injured.
The heavy gate of Hu's mansion collapsed, and then the army poured into the Hu's house. Cao Shaoqin's sharp voice was heard echoing in the Hu's yard: "No one of the Hu clan can escape!"
Hu Guowei's heart was shattered by Cao Shaoqin's palm and he died. Except for a few resisters who were killed on the spot, these unarmed Hu clan members were suppressed by the cruel methods of the army. Naturally, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Being put in shackles.
Cao Shaoqin personally led several bandits and dozens of soldiers to confiscate the Hu family's property, while Shi Kui led soldiers and horses to escort dozens of Hu's direct clan members away.
Listening to the Hu family's movement gradually disappearing, and then seeing Shi Kui leading the army to escort the Hu clan members away, many people who knew the inside story and even participated in the riots finally felt a huge stone in their hearts, thinking of destroying the Hu clan.
Clan, Chu Yi, the governor of Dongchang, should calm down and stop now!
