Chapter 445 The Emperor's End (Part 2)
Chapter 445
The Emperor's End (Chinese)
On June 16th, the full moon is coming, and there is no wind...
Under the cover of Li Hongyi, Dong Zunhui quietly left the city and came to a small house near Nanyuzhuang. More than a hundred of the most trusted guards had been quietly gathered here. The parents, wives and children of these people lived under the tribute of Dong Zunhui. They could give everything to Dong Zunhui, and they could all be called dead soldiers.
There are high walls near the house, and torches are inserted on the high walls. Although they cannot be said to be as bright as daytime, they are also extremely bright. Dong Zunhui walked to a high place and said to everyone: "Tonight our target is a boy of six or seven years old in Nanyu Village. He must capture him alive and must not let him escape! In addition, as the imperial village of the imperial court, ordinary people can only farm in it, but they do not have the qualifications to live in it. Therefore, this attack will be killed by the rebels!
However, don’t think we are doing private work. The garrison near Nanyuzhuang has been secretly transferred by the Privy Council, and the surrounding roads have been blocked by Li Hongyi’s Privy Council. It can be said that our operation has received strong support from the imperial military. As long as we break through the defense of the traitors in Nanyuzhuang and catch the little boy, we can complete the task!"
Everyone in the yard knelt on one knee. Although they tried their best to lower their voices, they still shouted in unison: "I wish to die for the general!"
Dong Zunhui smiled slightly: "It's important. I personally lead the charge tonight. I'm willing to move forward with you!"
At the fourth update, Fan Zhi's Seizuo, who was placed in Nanyuzhuang, quietly lit a torch outside the village and drew three circles in succession. Soon, the leader sent by Fan Zhi came forward to connect with the Seizuo. Soon, Xizuo presented the topographic map of the village prepared in advance. Dong Zunhui and others quickly lit the oil lamp and hid under the quilt to study it carefully.
After reading the map, Dong Zunhui whispered: "Zhang Qiong, you will lead 70 people to attack from the south of the village, and make the opponent feel that you are the main force, with a large number of people, and dare not resist. There is a big river in the north of the village, and no ferry was found in the river, and the opposite side of the river has been blocked; Besides, the other party has children, so he will definitely not dare to walk at night. Kaifeng Prefecture is east of the village, and all the roads leading to Kaifeng Prefecture were blocked by Li Hongyi. In addition, the enemy will definitely think that it is the key prevention and control place of our army, and will definitely not dare to break out from there! I led the remaining thirty people to detour, ambush the west of the village, and catch fish that have escaped the net. Do you understand? OK, act immediately!"
Qiao Meng's heart was pounding. In the morning, he took Chai Zongxun to Nanyuzhuang quietly. He wanted to enter the city directly, but he was almost arrested as a thief in Jiangyang. Moreover, the entire Kaifeng Prefecture was also very cautious. In the past, the yamen runners who had been hanging with Fantou appeared near the city gate today and carefully checked the people entering the city in detail in the portrait.
At first Qiao Meng thought it was a coincidence, but he took a sneak peek at his portrait and found that there was even a small mole on his left face clearly on the portrait, and he pressed the highest child trafficking on his head. Some of the foolish people who were chatting cursed at him, saying that the trafficker who trafficked children should be cut into pieces and pressed under the city gate and would never turn over!
Qiao Meng also wanted to send his subordinates to bring Chai Zongxun into the city, but today the children entering the city must provide detailed identity certificates, otherwise they will be locked up in the government office and wait for their parents to claim. Qiao Meng knew that he was not aware of who was targeting him. This man was so bold that he actually dared to go against the emperor secretly, and he really didn't know how to live or die!
In this way, Qiao Meng had to return to Nanyuzhuang, and obtained the command of Zhuang Ding with the token, and increased Zhuangzi's vigilance. At the same time, he sent someone to sneak into the city and send a letter to his best friend Lu Qiaoshan, allowing him to meet the emperor while on duty and report everything. Now Qiao Meng didn't know who the enemy was hidden in the dark, so he could only trust his best friend Lu Qiaoshan, who had been playing since childhood.
However, Qiao Meng was too lucky. When the letter was delivered, Lu Qiaoshan happened to be on duty in the palace and did not receive the letter as soon as possible. The yamen runners responsible for monitoring Qiao Meng's good friends immediately discovered the face of Lu Qiaoshan's home, took the opportunity to imprison him, and seized the secret letter sent by Qiao Meng, and then learned where Qiao Meng was.
Of course, Qiao Meng didn't know what happened next. He only knew that Lu Qiaoshan would definitely try to meet the saint when he received the news. His Majesty also had some impression of the loyal Lu Qiaoshan. After listening to Lu Qiaoshan's report, he would definitely send reinforcements to Nanyuzhuang to respond and catch all the thieves in the Kaifeng government office. The Nanyuzhuang where he is now is a royal manor, and there are garrisons nearby, who dares to attack easily? Moreover, there are more than 40 powerful men from Kong Wu in the manor. Anyway, he has never exposed his identity, so it is extremely safe here!
Qiao Meng, who was full of confidence, finally relaxed a little. He made an exception to drink a big bowl of wine tonight. This was a luxury for Qiao Meng, who had a very poor alcohol tolerance. If he hadn't been thinking about his task, he would have felt relieved and would have found a beautiful woman to spend the long night!
After a sneak peek at the lights in another room, Qiao Meng couldn't help but be shocked. Chai Zongxun was just a six or seven-year-old child, how could he make such a big spell? Just a "careless" supper, he ate eighteen dishes. You know, from Guo Wei to Guo Rong, two generations of emperors, now only serve four dishes each!
However, Qiao Meng immediately smiled. The character of this child is what the emperor should consider. As long as he successfully sent him into the palace, he would be able to get an additional title. At that time, he would serve more than ten dishes at each meal, half of it will be thrown away! He would sleep in two bedrooms every night, sleep in the first half of the night, and sleep in the second half of the night with his concubine...
Just when Qiao Meng was fantasizing, a dog barked in the south of the village, and soon it ended abruptly! Qiao Meng was shocked. Could it be that the thiefs came in from Nanyu Village? How could they have such courage to attack the Royal Manor? By the way, were they coming for me?
Qiao Meng's alcohol was scared away all of a sudden, and cold sweat broke out all over his body. He immediately ran to Chai Zongxun's house quickly, and shouted loudly: "Immediately lit the wolf smoke bonfire and asked for help from the nearby garrison; at the same time, mobilize all servants to go out immediately to block the enemy's heavy rewards!"
The butler of Nanyuzhuang who was serving Chai Zongxun's house immediately agreed loudly and acted quickly. Qiao Meng pushed open the door of the house and said quickly to Chai Zongxun who was eating inside: "Young Master, there are thieves entering the village. I don't know if they are coming for us. You must be prepared!"
Chai Zongxunmans wiped his mouth in an orderly manner and said disdainfully: "Who dares to attack the Royal Manor? He doesn't think he is long-lasting! What are you going to prepare for? When the nearby garrison arrives, let's go and see the hanged people together!"
Before Qiao Meng could speak, he heard the screams of Zhuang Dings suddenly coming from the south. Someone shouted loudly: "They are soldiers and are wearing armor!" Before he could finish his words, he heard the man screaming, and there was no news anymore!
Qiao Meng was shocked. It was a very common thing to be able to get swords and swords. If he could get armor, he would have a close relationship with the people in the army! And these people openly exposed armor, which means that they are not afraid of being discovered, so they will silence everyone! Thinking of this, Qiao Meng hurriedly said: "Young Master, let's withdraw!"
Although Chai Zongxun was young, he was a little brave. After listening to Qiao Meng's analysis, Chai Zongxun was not scared to tremble, nor was he so scared that he wet his pants on the spot. Instead, he asked calmly: "Where are we going?"
Yes, where to go? Qiao Meng quickly thought nervously: There is a big river to the north. It is late at night. The ferrymen are going home to sleep. There must be no boats in the ferry. Moreover, Nanyuzhuang is still a distance from the ferry. Before he can escape to the ferry, the enemy will catch up. Don’t forget that there is a six or seven-year-old oil bottle beside him! Going east is Kaifeng Mansion. He was almost arrested during the day. At night, the four gates in the city were closed and he could not climb up to escape to the city wall. Moreover, the other party could openly execute himself on the charge of a thief in the Jiangyang. The emperor's secret order was sent to Luqiaoshan Mansion, and he could not provide any tangible evidence to let the defenders open the city! It seems that he can only run west. Anyway, he is coming from the west. He can run away from the enemy and run away from the place where he is in trouble. Perhaps there is a glimmer of hope!
Qiao Meng thought so much, but in fact he rarely used it. He immediately whispered to Chai Zongxun: "Where the enemy has not rushed over yet, let's run west first! The garrison will arrive later, and it will not be too late for us to show up again!"
After all, Chai Zongxun is a child, and it is beyond everyone's expectations to be able to face all this calmly. He was not familiar with the situation and could not give any comments, so he nodded repeatedly and ran west with Qiao Meng.
At this time, the sound of killing in Nanyu Village was already shook the sky. The monks were all fat and round, and they all had strength. Unfortunately, although they were skilled in martial arts and sufficient strength, they did not have armor protection, and they had not received mutual training in battle formations.
Although the monks rushed up in a fierce manner, they were actually killed! One monks put on a beautiful white crane wing-shaped shape, and then was stabbed to death by four spears on the spot. Another monks came with a golden bell cover and an iron cloth shirt. Unfortunately, he had to breathe, and after a while, he was poked into a mess of sacks!
Qiao Meng hugged Chai Zongxun and ran to the west quickly, while listening carefully to the movements in the village. The more he heard, he frowned. The strong men were now in a defeat, but they also made loud noises. Why did the nearby garrisons not take any action? This Nanyuzhuang is a royal manor. Once there is any loss, the local garrisons cannot escape! Unless they are accomplices with the killers!
Thinking of this, Qiao Meng couldn't help but stagger. Before he could stand up, more than ten spears were pressed against the vital points. Looking at the circle of black-clad men around, Qiao Meng originally wanted to fight to the death, but he still had Chai Zongxun in his arms. If he fought with the enemy to the death, it would be difficult for him to protect him. Thinking of this, Qiao Meng could only sigh sadly and surrender!
Chapter completed!
