Jin Zhun took one last look at the sergeants arrayed in front of the arsenal.
There were more than 3,300 people in total, all strong men. At this moment, they put on brand-new armor, holding rifles, swords, shields, and strong bows in their hands. A chilling air rushed towards their faces.
When Liu Can ordered the tribes to select the best people to go to Chang'an, many tribes either did not come or randomly selected some people to come and make up the number. However, no one expected that Jin Zhun selected more than 3,000 of the most elite people.
These people have been trained for many years and have followed him in his western expedition to Qinzhou. They have rich experience in battle.
The last battle was half a year ago. They attacked from Anding and plundered the Beiyi Mountain area. They beheaded more than two thousand people and captured tens of thousands of cattle and sheep. They returned with a great victory.
In order to deceive others, they left all their armor and other equipment in the tribe. When they came here, the equipment was very shabby, similar to that of most people, so they did not attract much attention.
Now that I have access to the sophisticated equipment in Miyagi's arsenal, my feelings suddenly change.
Jin Zhun was also very satisfied. With the help of his own soldiers, he put on his armor, tried the rifle on his waist, waved his hand and said, "Execute and slaughter all the traitors."
The first team of sergeants, armed with swords, shields and bows, came out first, followed by the second team, then the third team...
The large group of people headed north and soon arrived at the Zhonghua Gate.
There were more than ten sergeants outside the door. After seeing the army, they opened the door immediately.
There were also dozens of people on the city wall. They did not make any movement. They only held torches and silently watched the private soldiers of Jin's army filing in.
After passing the Zhonghua Gate, there is a place called "Dianzhong", which is a relatively independent area within the palace city.
There are walls on three sides, with the Zhonghua Gate to the south, the West Zhonghua Gate to the west, the East Zhonghua Gate to the east, and the palace complex to the north. It is a front-facing and back-sleeping model, with the Taiji Hall in the front and the Jianzhang Hall in the back.
There are also some lakes, gardens and ancillary buildings on both sides (where Liu Can's office is located).
After the army swarmed in, several military schools immediately received orders, each leading one or two hundred people, and distributed them to various places.
Jin Zhun continued to move forward.
In the government offices on both sides, inquiries gradually sounded.
After a while, this voice turned into questioning, scolding and even anger.
Screams followed.
Jin's private soldiers didn't say a word and just silently hacked people. The order they received was that if there was no place protected by their own generals and soldiers, they would kill and chop everyone they saw without leaving any one behind.
There are many officials working all night in the government offices. Some are making calculations and allocating food and grass, some are discussing re-dividing defense areas, and some are discussing how to send people to break out of the encirclement and urge King Qin's troops...
When they heard the shouts and screams from outside, they subconsciously stopped and looked at each other, wondering what had happened. The one with rich associations turned pale, wondering if the Jin army had entered the city.
"Bang!" Several doors were pushed open at the same time.
More than ten archers poured in from outside. Without saying a word, they each found someone to pick up their bows and arrows.
"Ah!" A scream sounded immediately.
The powerful arrows easily penetrated the bodies of these officials and nailed them to the ground.
After the archers, more than twenty sword and shield men rushed in and slashed with their swords.
Everyone in the office was running wild, but in such a big place, where could you run? When the last person pushed open the window and leaned half of his body out of the window, he was shot to death by an arrow. Dozens of officials had already been killed.
Kill.
The rest of the scenes are generally similar.
On both sides of the Taiji and Jianzhang Second Halls, and in the auxiliary buildings at the front and back, blood was shining into the sky, and the dead were sleeping on their pillows. There were only a dozen or so people who were lucky enough to hide in the garden in a hurry to avoid the bad luck of being inflicted with swords and axes.
Jin Zhun has already entered the Tai Chi Hall.
He slowed down his pace and looked coldly at the facing place.
Jin's soldiers were stationed in every corner of the Tai Chi Palace. Several eunuchs were pulled out and killed with swords in their hands.
A group of halberd-bearing warriors from the palace were staying nearby. After hearing the news, they rushed over and were quickly surrounded by Jin's soldiers.
Most of them had ceremonial weapons in their hands. How could they compare with the real ones in Jin's army's hands? They were quickly killed, and a few of them ran around in a hurry under the cover of night.
Jin Zhun sneered and quickly walked out of the side door next to the throne and entered the Jianzhang Hall.
When Liu Cong was defeated and retreated from Guanzhong, he fell ill here and finally died here. At this time, Jianzhang Hall became Liu Can's sleeping hall, but he did not live here at this time.
The maids and eunuchs in the Jianzhang Hall were horrified when they saw the army approaching. However, before these people could rush over, the guards beside them killed them all with swords.
After a while, Jin Zhun walked in, stepping on the pool of blood on the ground.
He first checked to see if any fish had slipped through the net, and after seeing that his men had been killed very cleanly, he came to Liu Can's study. Looking at the pens, inks, paper and inkstones on the desk, he suddenly couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, so he drew out his sword and chopped it off.
Got up.
The table, curtains, and beaded curtains were all cut off by him, and even the couch where Liu Can slept was slashed by him several times.
Everyone looked at their master with frightened eyes, subconsciously thinking that he might be crazy.
So they all retreated outside and waited quietly.
After Jin Zhun panted and vented for a while, he slowly calmed down and then burst out laughing again.
"Liu Yuanhai, your family's foundation is over!"
"Liu Cong, just wait, I will smash your tomb to pieces immediately. We still have a lot to say."
After the laughter gradually subsided, the crazy look on Jin Zhun's face disappeared.
He sheathed the sword, adjusted his armor and appearance, strode out, waved his hand and said, "Go to the harem!"
******
There is Huanglong Gate behind Jianzhang Hall. When you leave this gate, you will reach a place called "Forbidden Zone".
There are many smaller palaces here, where Liu Can usually convenes ministers to discuss matters and ask questions.
There were no officials present at this time, only palace people.
When Jin Zhun arrived, these people were lying on the ground in a mess, with blood flowing everywhere.
Jin Zhun looked intently, with a sickly flush on his face, and his breathing gradually became heavier.
After leaving the forbidden area and passing two walls, you will find the harem.
Halfway through, Jin Ming, the right-guard general, came to pay his respects.
"Brother, the Emperor is at the Jiaofang Hall, Huyan's concubine." Jin Ming was surprised when he smelled the rich smell of blood coming from the south.
As my brother walked along, he was afraid that he would kill anyone he saw. There were almost no survivors wherever he passed.
Isn't this a bit too much?
"What kind of emperor? He's just slaughtering a kid." Jin Zhun sneered and said, "Lead the way."
"As ordered." Jin Ming stopped talking nonsense and took the lead in leading the way.
Jin Jiajun followed silently, his clothes and armor covered with fresh blood stains.
After entering the harem, Xu had a target, and Jin Zhun no longer killed people randomly, unless someone got confused and happened to bump into their marching route.
Outside the Jiaofang Hall, there were guards carrying the corpse.
"Several palace servants went to prepare meals for Tian Tu Ge's children, but the guards refused to let them go. They became suspicious, so they were strangled to death." Jin Ming explained.
Jin Zhun nodded but did not answer.
When he came to the main entrance of Jiaofang Hall, he stopped and asked his disciple with his eyes.
"The little boy Tu Ge woke up from the wine and was hungry, so he asked the palace servants to prepare a meal. He just fell asleep again." Jin Ming said. At the end, he felt that he might be verbose, so he said directly: "Liu Can is inside.
"
Jin Zhun took a deep breath, and the flush on his face became more obvious. If you look carefully, his body may still be shaking slightly.
Jin Ming took a half step back in fear.
He was a little confused, how could his normally gentle brother become like this?
He did want to rebel, but that was because he was at the end of his rope and had no other choice. If the confrontation between east and west continued and the Jin army could not enter Tongguan, Jin Ming felt that he was still willing to fight for the imperial court.
Of course, now that Chang'an is under siege, there is nothing to say. He no longer wants to work for Liu Can, and there is no psychological pressure to rebel.
But it seems that the brother's appearance is not just for self-protection. He must have other reasons - the twisted expression on the brother's face and the overwhelming hatred clearly told Jin Ming that this matter
It's not that simple.
"Bang!" Jin Zhun stepped forward and kicked open the closed palace door.
Liu Can didn't wake up and was still mumbling in his sleep.
The noble concubine Hu Yan suddenly woke up. She frowned and got off the bed. Before she had taken a few steps, she saw dozens of soldiers pouring in from outside. Among them was one person, who was the cavalry general Jin Zhun.
Father of Queen Jin Yuehua.
"Jin Cheqi——" Before Hu Yan could finish his sentence, Jin Zhun grabbed his hair and stabbed him in the abdomen.
Hu Yanshi screamed, her face full of pain.
Several palace guests who were a little dozed off screamed when they saw it.
The soldiers swarmed up and killed him with swords.
Jin Zhun kicked away the body of the noble concubine Hu Yanshi and slowly walked to the bed.
Liu Can was disturbed by the screams, with a slightly angry look on his face, and his heavy eyelids trembled slightly, as if they were about to open.
"Pah!" Jin Zhun exerted all his strength and slapped him forward.
After this sudden attack, Liu Can was awakened no matter how sleepy or tired he was.
He suddenly opened his eyes, his fierce glare revealed, and his face was full of uncontrollable anger. When he saw Jin Zhun, he became even more angry. Just as he was about to shout, he caught sight of the man lying dead on the ground out of the corner of his eye.
Hu Yangui's concubine, as well as the corpses scattered around the corner, were immediately stunned.
The Jiaofang Hall was filled with disgusting blood.
The entire palace was filled with rude sergeants, and blood was still dripping from the tips of many people's swords.
He looked at Jin Zhun again, and in fear, asked a silly question: "Jin Qing, is there someone in the palace who is plotting rebellion?"
Jin Zhun looked up to the sky and laughed so hard that he was out of breath and burst into tears.
Just at this moment, several sergeants came outside and whispered.
"Bring it here." Jin Zhun stretched out his hand and said without any nonsense.
The sergeant handed over a package soaked in blood.
Jin Zhun slowly untied it and found a head inside.
He didn't mind it being dirty either, so he took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and laughed again.
"Jin Qing." Liu Can's hand hidden behind his back was rummaging around subconsciously, as if trying to find something for his life.
Jin Zhun glanced at him disdainfully, bent down, handed the bloody head to Liu Can's hand, and said, "Take it, father and son, let's say goodbye. We can go down and meet each other later."
Liu Can stopped searching, took the head and saw that it was Prince Liu Yuangong.
"Traitor!" Liu Can suddenly looked at Jin Zhun, his eyes were red, and he almost wanted to choose someone to devour.
Jin Zhun didn't waste any time. He stepped on the couch, grabbed Liu Can's hair and slapped her twice. Then he dragged him off the bed and kicked him hard.
Everyone stared blankly.
When an emperor is treated like this, it always makes people feel uncomfortable, as if they have done something thunderous.
Jin Zhun didn't care, and punched and kicked him as if to vent his anger.
Liu Can was also stubborn, yelling and even wanted to fight back.
The sergeants swarmed up and held him down.
Jin Zhun gasped, took out a shining silver dagger from his body, bent down and squatted beside Liu Can, and said softly: "Your Majesty, it's very painful, please bear with it a little bit."
After that, regardless of Liu Can's reaction, he cut with the dagger.
A large amount of blood immediately oozed from Liu Can's neck.
He was so frightened that he struggled desperately, but the more he struggled, the faster the blood flowed out.
"Your Majesty, when my daughter begged, you didn't care about the old relationship at all. Now do you know that you are afraid?" Jin Zhun found the wound he had just made and cut it with the dagger again.
The wound became deeper and blood spurted out instantly.
"Jin Zhun, traitor! You will not die well." Liu Can was still struggling, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was full of hatred and fear.
"With the moonlight, Yuehua is not satisfied, and she covets my little daughter? She is already twenty-three or four this year, and she cannot get married. She hides at home and cries every day. Although she is alive, what is the difference between being dead? If you
If she doesn't die, she will have to hide at home and worry day and night for the rest of her life." Jin Zhun swung his sword for the third time, and blood surged like a fountain.
Liu Can's eyes were a little distracted, and his body was twitching unconsciously.
"Jin Ling is my elder brother." Jin Zhun licked the blood on the corner of his mouth and said with a sneer: "When I was young, my parents died young and many of my subordinates were dissatisfied. At that time, my elder brother took care of me and often visited. He was named my brother.
, in fact, my father was killed by your father, Liu Cong, because the country was short of funds and he was slow to supervise the construction of the palace. Is this something done by a human being?"
After that, the fourth knife was cut, and the cut was very deep.
Liu Can was almost motionless, only trembling occasionally, and his body was covered with blood.
Jin Zhun was still angry and continued to swing his sword.
Knife after knife, until Liu Can's head was almost completely cut off.
There was a chill in everyone's hearts.
Jin Ming was even more horrified.
He was also dissatisfied with Liu Cong and Liu Can, but to be honest, the Tuge clan also gave the Jin family a lot of benefits, and overall it was a profit.
But in his brother's opinion, the benefits provided by the Liu family were nothing and could not alleviate the hatred in his heart at all.
I don't know how long this hatred has been buried in my heart. After fermenting for a long time, if Liu Can didn't die, his brother would probably go crazy.
He was really a little scared.
Jin Zhun squatted on the ground, wielded his last knife, and cut off Liu Can's head. Then he stood up. After a moment of silence, he took a long breath and said, "Put the heads of Liu Can and his son in a wooden box and send them out of the city to the King of Liang."
Department. The city of Chang'an still needs to be reorganized. All gates are tightly closed, and anyone who leaves the city without authorization will be killed."
"What will happen if the Jin army comes to attack the city?" Jin Ming asked.
"Then fight back." Jin Zhun said: "I will only surrender Liang Jun, but not Yao Yizhong, Pu Hong, Peng Tianhu, Liang Xun, and those who have emptied power."
Jin Ming understood.
There are so many messy soldiers outside the city. How can we let them in? Don't be kidding.
Once a mass killing started, how many people could survive in the city? Even if King Liang issued an order to prohibit it, Chang'an would still suffer heavy losses, and we don't know how many people would die.
Therefore, they must not be allowed to enter the city.
