Ming Dynasty Road

Chapter 34 The Great Shame

Shengjing, in the Huangji Hall, a royal guard knelt down in the hall, and reported the news that Prince Rui had surrounded Zhao Yi and others to Huang Taiji in the hall, and the military ministers in the hall spoke one by one, This must be a long-premeditated conspiracy. The military ministers quickly came to a conclusion. The military ministers in the hall knelt down and asked the emperor to clean up the Han people in Shengjing to completely solve the hidden dangers of the Ming army.

The humming echo of the conversation in the empty hall was not very clear to people. After finally listening to the guard's report, Huang Taiji heard that Zhao Yi and others had been surrounded, and that Fan Wencheng was also in the hands of this group of people. Quickly ordered to mobilize the Shengong Battalion and Xiaoqi Battalion to rush to the encirclement. Even the green battalion soldiers who usually guarded the city were mobilized by Huang Taiji. This time, Huang Taiji vowed to strangle Zhao Yi and others in Shengjing to vent his heart only hate.

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji angrily stood up from the dragon chair, and roared angrily: "This group of thieves dare to openly attack our important ministers of the Qing Dynasty in Shengjing, and they have committed several murders in Shengjing. Are they really bullying?" I have no one in the Qing Dynasty? I really turned against them, I want to see for myself who Zhao Yi is! I want to kill him myself!"

When all the courtiers heard that His Majesty was going to preside over the overall situation in person, fearing that His Majesty would make a mistake, they all knelt down on the ground and begged in unison: "It is absolutely impossible, Your Majesty, please appease your anger, the little thief will be punished by Prince Rui." Take it, the emperor is a body of ten thousand gold, how can you risk yourself, please cherish the dragon body and take it back to life."

Huang Taiji slapped the imperial case in front of him, and roared: "Prince Rui, Prince Rui, is it true that Prince Rui is the only one in my Qing Dynasty, do you still see me as the emperor in the eyes of your courtiers?" Huang Taiji's anger had reached its peak I don't know why, Huang Taiji, who had a fairly good relationship with Dorgon, has gradually become estranged from his younger brothers since he became the throne, and people always mention how brave Dorgon is in front of him Even the father and emperor in his lifetime admired Dorgon very much. How could he swallow this breath as the Ninth Five-Year Lord? Also, after Duduo was captured by the Han people last time, Dorgon actually threatened himself to send troops to rescue him. Duo Duo, Shengjing was suffering from a famine at that time, and there was still money there for military expenses. The relationship between Dorgon and himself became even more stalemate. At this time, Huang Taiji, who was in a hurry, shouted out the anger in his heart.

All the courtiers kneeling below were too frightened by Huang Taiji to raise their heads, knowing that if they tried to persuade them at this time, their lives would definitely be lost, so they lowered their heads and shouted: "The emperor calms down, this servant deserves to die."

"Hmph, I must go out in person. Not only do I want the beasts to kill these thieves, but I also rescue Mr. Fan. Mr. Fan has been loyal to me all his life. I will never let Mr. Fan suffer again." Huang Taiji vowed Said.

Kneeling Hanchen in the hall heard Huang Taiji's touching words, his eyes were slightly moist, what a good emperor, he couldn't help thinking about Hanchen sincerely, and he was also a real man with blood!

The eunuchs on duty in the main hall brought Huang Taiji's imperial armor and weapons as quickly as possible, as well as the iron-cut sword left by Nurhachi. Huang Taiji quickly hung it up under the clothes of the eunuchs, Wearing a specially made golden armor on his body, he looked very brave. The tall fringe on the helmet was like a sharp sword soaring into the sky, and the sword was hanging from his waist, which made him look more mighty and mighty.

The ministers who were kneeling below instantly felt that the emperor was mighty, and shouted in unison: "My emperor is mighty, this time he will be able to kill the thieves, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"En!" Huang Taiji nodded heavily, holding the sword at his waist, and resolutely walked out of the palace. Soldiers from all walks of life were already waiting in the school grounds, waiting for the emperor to lead them to destroy the culprits.

Zhenghuangqi is the most courageous unit among the Eight Banners soldiers, and Zhenghuangqi is a team commanded by His Majesty the Emperor himself. It is also responsible for the safety of Shengjing. The soldiers under its jurisdiction are all wearing yellow uniforms and tiger skins on their heads. He is holding a rattan card and a Yanling sword. The Yanling sword is slightly shorter than the average infantry saber, but it is very suitable for stabbing. The blade is also covered with serrations, which is more suitable for street fighting in small spaces than ordinary infantry swords.

Zhenghuangqi's team is Huang Taiji's elite soldiers at the bottom of the box, and will never be used unless it is a last resort. At this moment, it was summoned by Dorgon to show that Huang Taiji was really angry, and Huang Taiji put on his helmet and armor himself. With a large group of Ouchi guards and a group of troops, they rushed towards Zhao Yi's surrounded courtyard with a murderous look.

Since Duduo's defeat in Tumubao and Hong Chengchou's battle in Songshan last time, the soldiers of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties have been clearly stretched.Now in Shengjing, only Dorgon's Zhengbaiqi and Zhenghuangqi troops under his command are the only ones who can fight in Shengjing. The other troops are already stationed in other cities. Soldiers have poor combat effectiveness, and their loyalty is also worrying.

*****
In the small courtyard, Zhao Yi had already thrown the melon skin cap and fake braids on the ground, revealing his hair. Zhou Tong and others did the same, tearing off the mandarin jacket and taking off the ugly money rat tail.Zhao Yi held a spear in his hand, dancing like a wall, and the Qing soldiers who rushed up would die if they stuck to each other, and they would die if they touched them. If you rush in, even if you use corpses to fill it, you have to rush into the small courtyard to keep people like Zhao Yi.

The courtyard wall and the entrance of the small courtyard were full of Zhengbai Qing soldiers rushing in. Dozens of corpses of Qing soldiers had fallen in front of Zhao Yi. It was very slippery, and the barrel of the long spear in his hand was broken, but the Qing army still swarmed in, Zhou Tong and others behind him were also covered in blood, everyone's eyes were bloodshot, they didn't know how to kill How many enemy troops were killed, but the Qing army from outside the yard had rushed in and surrounded them. Everyone stood up proudly, not caring about the fierce eyes of the Qing army looking at them.

There was a loud "bang", and the quiet street was filled with people again, and they were all men with weapons. Other members of the armed forces team behind the enemy had already gathered from all over the place. It was the gunpowder bags thrown by this group of people, and these people were carrying a lot of explosives. Packs of ignited gunpowder bags were thrown into the ranks of the Qing army. The disbanded team, these people gathered together with Zhao Yi and others.

"Master Zhao, what should we do?"

"What should we do? Cold salad, go quickly, grab the horses of the Qing army before they slow down, and go out of the city first." Zhao Yi was the first to take the brunt, captured a batch of horses, shook the reins, and shouted loudly, just now About to rush out, he suddenly thought of something, turned around and lifted Fan Wencheng on the ground onto the horse, turned around and shouted: "Brothers, take all the injured brothers with you, Zhou Tong, you are in charge of Feng Er." The horse's head rushed into the chaotic formation of the Qing army, and stabbed left and right with the broken spear in its hand. After a burst of killing, it urged the horse to run to the spies caught by the Qing army, and with the tip of the spear, they were thrown The ropes were all broken, and as soon as these people were lifted from the ropes, they turned over and fought with the Qing army, and they grabbed weapons and horses one after another.

Seeing that everyone had already snatched the horses and weapons, Zhao Yi didn't bother to say anything at the critical moment. He slapped the horse hard and shouted: "Go!" He led a group of men to step on the corpses of the Qing army and headed towards the camp in the west of the city. direction to run.

At this time, less than a thousand defenders of the camp in the west of the city had been poisoned and killed. Zhao Yi and his party rode the stolen horses and galloped all the way. When they arrived at the city gate in the west of the city, Zhao Yi reined in his horse and said, "Hurry up, I will cut off the rear here." Shengjing is already in chaos. The rest of the city gates have been ordered to be closed. Only the gate of Daying in the west of the city has not had time to close because of the poisoning incident. It will be a matter of time before the Qing army will chase after them. The people were brought out by Zhao Yi, and Zhao Yi is responsible for the safe return of these people.

"Master Zhao" everyone reined in their horses one after another, and looked at Zhao Yi with moving faces. What kind of courage and bravery this is, the eyes of the men who have been through the wind and rain together these days can't help but get wet.

Zhao Yi said: "Go quickly, the Qing army will not be able to pursue after you leave the city gate, you quickly retreat to Xiping Fort, where our army is, you withdraw from Xiping Fort and return to Civil Fort."

Hundreds of people clasped their hands together and said, "Lord Zhao, take care!"

Zhao Yi smiled lightly, pulled back the reins, raised the fore hooves of his vigorous horse, looked up to the sky and thought, Zhao Yi waved the long knife in his hand and said loudly: "There will be a period later." Then he rode his horse back to the city with Fan Wencheng.

Seeing his majestic figure leave, everyone was deeply impressed. From now on, these people will become Zhao Yi's loyal subordinates, and they will go through life and death for Zhao Yi without hesitation.

After leaving the city gate, everyone galloped on their horses and headed towards Daming's Xiping Fort.

Everyone left, only Zhao Yi was left standing quietly in the open space of Wengcheng. The swarming Qing army saw him blocking the gate of the west city, and thought it was a fraud, and dared not go forward. Take a step.

Dorgon's Zhengbai Banner mixed with the troops who happened to come to Huang Taiji, and quickly rushed to the gate of the west city. Seeing Zhao Yi in the open space, Huang Taiji carefully looked at this great enemy, covered in blood, and his hands Only half of his spear is left.

Under the protection of the guards, Huang Taiji passed through the phalanx and came to the open space in the urn city. Huang Taiji sneered: "You are Zhao Yi, and today is your day of death. I will smash your corpse into thousands of pieces and shatter your bones." Raise the ashes, and avenge the Qing soldiers who died in your hands." As he spoke, he raised his hand, and the Qing soldiers rushed forward.

Zhao Yi picked up Fan Wencheng on the horse, threw it on the ground viciously, took out the prepared short-fire gun from his waist, and fired at a part of the city gate.

What Zhao Yi shot was the gunpowder bag that had already been buried at the gate of the west city. At the beginning, the gunpowder was buried to rescue the captured brothers and to escape. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yi remembered it at this time.

Countless rubble and human limbs flew into the sky, and the city gate collapsed immediately. The large group of people in the city were unable to leave the city because of the bombing of the city gate. Huang Taiji, who was closest to the city gate, was relatively safe because of the protection of guards around him. Fortunately, he was just blown away from the horse by the blast of gunpowder and fell into the mud, while Fan Wencheng, who was thrown off the horse by Zhao Yi, was blown to pieces by the gunpowder before he could even utter a word.

By the time Huang Taiji was rescued by the soldiers who had reacted, Zhao Yi had already galloped away, and when the Qing army hurriedly moved away the broken stones at the city gate, Zhao Yi was still there.

"Zhao Yi, I'm going to kill you... Puff." Before Huang Taiji finished speaking, a gust of hot blood spurted out of his mouth, and he passed out instantly. Dorgon was also in a mess at this time, and the emperor was bombed in Shengjing He was injured and ran away by the thieves, which was a great shame. Dorgon quickly ordered the guards to send Huang Taiji to the palace for treatment, and led the rest of the soldiers to chase Zhao Yi in the direction where he was fleeing.
