Chapter 54: The Battle of Fengyang Eight

As the Zhongdu, Fengyang is mainly the location of the Zhu family's ancestral tomb. The highest military organ stationed here is the Zhongdu Liukou Department, which commands the eight guards stationed in Fengyang. These eight guards are Fengyang Guard, Fengyang Zhongwei, Fengyang Right Guard, Huangling Guard, Left Guard, Left Guard, Left Guard, Changhuai Guard, and Huaiyuan Guard. These eight guards have a total of more than 80,000 troops and horses, distributed around the imperial tomb to jointly protect this important goal.

Most of this military force is in the hands of the eunuch Yang Ze, who is guarding the tomb.

When the messenger came to the imperial guards, he happened to meet Yang Ze and his men coming out of the guards.

When Yang Ze saw someone coming to see him with Prime Minister Zhu Guozheng's token, his face turned cold. Due to Yang Yipeng's relationship, the two of them were not very harmonious at first, and now they had no good expressions. He said coldly: "Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

"Report to my father-in-law, I will come here to ask my father-in-law to send troops to rescue Fengyang, otherwise Fengyang will definitely fall into the hands of the thief."

The messenger hurriedly told the story of Prime Minister Zhu's request for help. Perhaps because of the urgent war, his tone was a little heavy.

Yang Ze was very unhappy and snorted coldly that even if Fengyang was lost, what would it do if I was the eunuch who was guarding the tomb? But then I thought about it that I was the eunuch who was left behind in Zhongdu, and it would be nothing if Fengyang was lost, but if something happened to the imperial tomb, my responsibility would be great.

Thinking of this in my heart, I was determined to slam the arrogance of Prime Minister Zhu, and I could use it to squeeze Yang Yipeng, and immediately said coldly: "What does this have to do with me?"

The messenger obviously didn't know that Yang Ze was talking angry. Just as Yang Ze was about to ask about the situation in the city in detail, the messenger said again: "Dadfather-in-law, no, the thief is inhumane. If Fengyang is not protected, the imperial tomb will be in danger. If something goes wrong with the imperial tomb, how can you explain to the emperor?"

After all, Yang Ze was a man who had been a eunuch who used to call the wind and rain. He was so powerful that he didn't want to be plotted against him and sent to Fengyang. Today, a small messenger dared to point fingers at him. He was really bullied by a dog in the sun and was furious immediately.

"I don't think he dares to attack the imperial tomb even if he breaks through the thief. You, a small guard, dare to point fingers at me. Come on, beat me!" Yang Ze was furious.

"Yes!" An eunuch walked up quickly and slapped twice, and the messenger's face swelled up.

"Eunuch Yang, you can't stand by death and refuse to save him..." The messenger endured the severe pain in his face and shouted loudly, but Yang Ze said as if he hadn't heard it: "Are the ship you prepared ready? Let's go to the boat first to rest, and it's not too late to come back when the thief retreats."

"It's Eunuch Yang, by the way, Miss Xiao Wu."

"What's wrong with Xiao Wu?" Yang Ze was shocked.

"When I go back to my father-in-law, Miss Xiao Wu said that his brother is still in the city and refused to leave." A young eunuch said flatteringly.

"Stupid, she refuses to leave, don't you know if you force her to leave?"

"Miss Xiao Wu said, if a villain dares to use force, she will bite her tongue and commit suicide immediately!" The little eunuch said with a embarrassed look on his face.

"This is difficult." Yang Ze paced back and forth. He knew that Xiao Wu had a personality. He was a rather trait than bend. It would be impossible to use it in this way. What should I do?

"Hurry, take me to see Miss Xiaowu." Yang Ze said with a moment of contemplation.

Seeing Yang Ze about to leave, he had no intention of sending troops to rescue him, the messenger felt very sad. It was time for him to please a woman. It would be strange if Feng Yang didn't lose such a left-behind eunuch.

"Dad father-in-law, are you going to ignore the safety of Fengyang for a woman, ignore the life and death of the tens of thousands of people in Fengyang, and ignore the imperial tombs? You damn eunuch, the general has mistakenly believed you."

The word "elebrity" deeply hurt Yang Ze's heart. This was the biggest pain in his heart. As a man who lacked that little thing became his biggest heart disease. The reason why he wanted to win Xiao Wu in his later years was that he had nothing to do with his heart disease. Now he was actually brought up by a guard to tell the story. He had already tried his best to send troops and immediately extinguished his plan to send troops.

"You go back and tell him that our family's duty is to guard the imperial tomb. As for Fengyang City, our family dare not overthrow it."

"Father-in-law, you can't stand by death and refuse to save me!"

"Get down!" Yang Ze said coldly.

"Father-in-law, father-in-law, please show your kindness to save my general. I just said nothing and asked me to have a lot of it."

"I'm not an adult. I'm just a visitor to the imperial tomb, so I can't save your general. You'd better ask your general to find another way."

The messenger felt as if he had to beg for nothing, so he had to whip the horse hard and headed towards the city quickly.

In fact, according to the current situation, it is not impossible for Yang Ze to send troops in time to defend Fengyang.

After all, Yang Ze still has tens of thousands of Ming troops in his hands. If he really fights his life, the rebel army may not be able to win.

Unfortunately, he miscalculated the Chuangjun, thinking that the Chuangjun was just robbing some property and did not dare to attack the imperial tomb.

Seeing the messenger leave, Yang Ze felt a little nervous, but after thinking that although the rebel army was so powerful that it had never taken down the big city, he felt relieved and his face improved a lot.

"Hurry, hurry up, take me to meet Miss Xiao Wu."

"Yes, father-in-law." A young eunuch smiled flatteringly and immediately led Yang Ze towards a house in the military camp.

According to the rules, no women were allowed to appear in the army, but by the end of the Ming Dynasty, the discipline in the army had long been abolished, and it was common for people who brought women into the military camp to participate in various places.

Soon, Yang Ze came to a yard, and Xiao Wu was walking back and forth there with a frown.

"Xiao Wu, the rebel army has come here, why are you still here?" Yang Ze said anxiously when he saw that Xiao Wu had no intention of leaving.

"Dad, Fengyang City is in chaos and my son is still in the city. I really can't leave." Xiao Wu said anxiously.

"Xiao Wu, don't worry, although the rebel army is cruel, your younger brother is not yet an adult. I think although the rebel army is fierce, it will not kill a child." Yang Ze explained.

"But, Xiao Wu was really worried when she didn't see her brother!" Xiao Wu looked sad, obviously very worried about her brother.

Yang Ze was very anxious. When was it time? He had to leave first, no matter what, why was he still here?

But Xiao Wu is just a stubborn temper. If he couldn't bring his brother, he wouldn't leave.

"Dad father-in-law, why not take the risk of sending people into the city and bringing Miss Xiaowu's younger brother out of the city?" At this time, a little eunuch offered his advice.

Yes, why didn’t I think of this? It seemed that I had figured out the key, and Yang Ze was secretly happy.

Xiao Wu was shocked and thought to herself that if Eunuch Yang was willing to take action, she might be able to rescue her younger brother. She immediately burst into tears and said with a firm look on her face: "As long as my father-in-law helps me rescue my younger brother, Xiao Wu is willing to promise her body!"

"Okay, okay! Our family will rescue your brother no matter what."

"Little Lizi, you and Liu Qianhu will take people to the city to bring Xiao Wu's brother out, and we will meet on the boat."

"Eunuch Yang, the city has fallen now, this, this..." Liu Qianhu was shocked. At this time, I asked him to go to the city to save people. Isn't that asking him to die?

"If you ask you to go, go. Remember, bring me the little girl's younger brother out, otherwise our family will kill you..."

"Yes..." Liu Qianhu was shocked, but did not dare to disobey the military order, so he had to lead a team of guards to Fengyang City with Xiao Lizi.

"I have arranged personnel, and it will be no problem to pick up your brother. Why don't you get on the boat with our family first? When Liu Qianhu finds your brother, he will take it directly to the boat to meet you."

"Thank you for your kindness, Xiao Wu obeys your order." Xiao Wu did not refuse this time, and just cleaned up, and took Ling'er and Yang Ze out of the military camp.

The number of rebels at the city gate is still increasing, and Prime Minister Zhu can no longer support him. At this moment, the messenger rushed back. Prime Minister Zhu immediately asked happily: "My father-in-law is willing to send troops."

"What kind of troops are there? Yang Ze's dead eunuch is not willing to send troops at all. Let's retreat quickly, it will be too late."

"What you said is true?" Zhu Guoping was furious.

The messenger was not polite, and immediately added fuel to the fire and said it again, "How to insult Yang Ze in the face, how to slap him and please women." Suddenly, the prime minister Zhu was so angry that he gushed out blood and almost fell down.

"Okay, Yang Ze, if Fengyang is lost, I see how you explain to the emperor that eunuchs will ruin the country, and eunuchs will ruin the country..." Zhu Guoxiang pointed to the direction of the imperial tomb with trembling hands and cried loudly.

"Mr. Zhu, let's go quickly!" The messenger felt very embarrassed when he saw Prime Minister Zhu's face was desolate.

"Where are you going? We just left like this. How can we be worthy of the emperor's kindness, how can we be worthy of the ancestors of the royal family, and how can we be worthy of the people of Fengyang City?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Guoxiang suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Gao Jie and said, "Thief, come on with your life. As he said that, he rushed towards Gao Jie."

At this time, Prime Minister Zhu had been surrounded by the rebel army. Seeing that Prime Minister Zhu was coming, they all rushed up.

Prime Minister Zhu was not afraid at all. He ignored the swords and guns that were stabbed. He swung the spear in his hand, and one shot. The rebel army was killed. In a blink of an eye, the soldiers rushed up were all dead under Prime Minister Zhu's spear. The messenger counted carefully and killed twenty-seven people in a row.

The soldiers of the rebel army were captured by Prime Minister Zhu's bravery for a moment and did not dare to step forward.

"General Zhu, I miss you as a man. As long as you join our rebel army, I, Gao Jie, can make the decision to let you live a life."

"Surrender? Haha, haha, my Prime Minister Zhu is a general of the court, how could he surrender to you traitors..."

Zhu Guoxiang shouted: The eunuchs would ruin the country... If it weren't for your Yang Thief's revenge, how could Fengyang be like this?

Then he swung his spear, pulled out his long sword and wiped it around his neck, and a stream of blood gushed out.

"General..." The messenger was shocked. It was too late to stop him, so he could only watch Prince Zhu fall off his horse.
