198 Chapter 198 Going to Zunyi without bloodshed!

The ginseng general who didn't know the flintlock pistol was so angry that he saw Zeng Ying pointing at Wang Yingxiong, and then he turned his sword to his head and slashed at Zeng Ying.

Who knew that as soon as he rushed out and jumped, he heard a crisp sound of fear, and his chest seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer. The man paused slightly in the air and fell down.

However, a personal guard behind Zeng Ying also took out the flintlock pistol at some point and kept paying attention to the side of the general. Seeing him jumping up and swinging the knife, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

A distance of less than ten steps is naturally a one-shot in the soul.

After falling to the ground, General Gan fell to the ground, he was still screaming there before he died.

This made people around him even more afraid of Zeng Ying and others' muskets.

Because at this time they discovered that ten of the fifty personal soldiers behind Zeng Ying took out flintlock guns.

As for the personal soldiers with muskets at the back, the threat was greatly increased in their eyes.

Wang Yingxiong looked ugly and shouted in a low voice: "Zeng Ying, how dare you kill your colleagues?!"

Zeng Ying said without changing her face: "Zeng said before that the person who acted without action died. What's more, he was going to attack Zeng first."

When Wang Yingxiong saw Zeng Ying talking, his pistol kept pointing at him and never moved it away. Looking at the tragic situation of the general, he didn't dare to say more.

Wang Xiang saw that Wang Yingxiong was cowardly and shouted: "Zeng Ying, even if your flintlock gun is powerful, you can only fight for a while.

If you dare to do whatever you want, I, Wang Xiang, can guarantee that you and your five hundred personal soldiers will be buried in the city!"

Zeng Ying sneered, "Is that right? Zeng can also guarantee that if Zeng cannot go out, the army will break the city today.

Jieshi, whether you are captured or killed, you can only be a rebel of the Ming Dynasty.”

Hearing this, everyone's faces changed.

Those who are greedy for life and fear of death and those who are concerned about their reputation are threatened by Zeng Ying's words.

The most important thing is that since Zeng Ying said that, most of the tens of thousands of troops outside the city would really do this.

Seeing that everyone was speechless, Zeng Ying unfolded the bright yellow scroll on his left hand and recited it loudly, "Feng Tian Chengzheng's reign, and the imperial edict said: Wang Yingxiong, the governor of four provinces, was appointed by the pseudo-Emperor Hongguang, and was an important minister of the late emperor, and was a philosophical and talented person..."

Zhu Ma's handwritten edict was not very large, mainly because he said something to King Yingxiong.

First, he mentioned the friendship between Wang Yingxiong and Chongzhen between the king and the ministers, and then praised Wang Yingxiong's literary achievements.

It is also said that Wang Yingxiong is not good at managing the political army, and the pseudo-Emperor Hongguang appointed him as the governor of the four provinces to waste talents.

What's more, Zhang Xianzhong has been defeated for several months, and the remaining troops of the bandit army have been beaten to flee, so there is no need for Wang Yingxiong, the governor of the four provinces who specialize in suppressing "prosperous thieves".

Zhu Mai was short of a professional who wrote the imperial edict, so he invited Wang Yingxiong to Chengdu for a visit and served as a Hanlin bachelor.

After listening to this handwritten order carefully, Wang Yingxiong wanted to cry.

I thought to myself: No matter how much I say that I have become a Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion and a Minister of Rites, and I have also become the Governor of the Four Provinces in the Nanjing court. Now you actually let me be a Hanlin Bachelor?

Even if you really appreciate my talent in literature, I can't agree to it for the sake of face.

"Wang Hanlin, should you accept the order?"

Just when Wang Yingxiong was slandering, Zeng Ying urged him to accept the order.

Wang Yingxiong shouted "I won't accept the fake edict." But when he thought of the tens of thousands of elite soldiers outside the city and Zeng Ying's threat, he did not dare to speak out.

For him, face is very important, but life is even more important.

What's more, if the fight really starts and Zunyi is defeated, he will not be the only one who will die, as well as his son and other family members, as well as civil and military officials and people in the city.

Seeing that Wang Yingxiong did not scold him harshly, Wang Xinliang next to him showed a hesitant look and immediately said worriedly: "Supervisor, this is a false edict, and he must not accept it!"

Wang Xiang felt that there was no future in the Chengdu court, so he advised: "Supervisor, don't listen to Zeng Ying's nonsense. We have more than 10,000 elite soldiers and tens of thousands of people to help defend the city. They won't say that they will destroy them in one day.

The city may not be broken even in a month!”

Hearing Wang Xiang's words, Wang Yingxiong immediately regained some confidence in defending the city. He glanced at Wang Xiang and immediately showed a tough side to Zeng Ying.

But Zeng Ying shook the black muzzle of the pistol and said with a smile: "Wang Hanlin has thought about it. If he disrespects the imperial edict and starts to fight, Zeng dares not say anything else, so he will open his chest.

A hole is easy.”

Hearing this, seeing that ten personal soldiers behind Zeng Ying all showed their short hand guns. Wang Yingxiong finally remembered that his life is actually in the hands of Zeng Ying.

After wiping the sweat on his forehead, he said, "Princess Kunxing is the blood of the late emperor after all. Since he said that he was the last emperor to supervise the country, regardless of whether it is true or false, this supervisor should go to Chengdu to take a look."

After hearing that Wang Yingxiong surrendered, Wang Xinliang, Wang Xiang and others around him all showed unwillingness to believe it.

Zeng Yingze smiled and said, "Don't worry, Wang Hanlin, I have read the edict of Long Futai, Liu Xunzhang and Liu Shenzheng. It was indeed the edict written by the late emperor himself.

As for why the late emperor did this, it was because His Highness the Princess "has the will of heaven and has great supernatural powers."

Otherwise, how can we use the lonely city of Chengdu and tens of thousands of soldiers to defeat Zhang Xianzhong's hundreds of thousands of troops?"

Wang Yingxiong only smiled at Zeng Ying's words, but he didn't believe a word in his heart, and even felt a little contempt.

I thought to myself: "I still have great powers to be true to God." It seems that this imperial edict is mostly fake, and the princess is mostly held hostage as a puppet.

Otherwise, how could such a ridiculous statement be?

Well, the late emperor had the friendship between a monarch and a minister, so I would go to meet those people in Chengdu. If I had the chance to rescue the princess, it would be a contribution to Nanjing.

Zeng Ying naturally didn't know what Wang Yingxiong was thinking. Seeing Wang Yingxiong laughing apologized, he thought he really wanted to join Zhu Moe.

So he said, "Since that's the case, Wang Hanlin also asked the soldiers around him to put away their weapons, open the city gate, and let Zeng's army come in?"

At this time, Wang Xinliang, Wang Xiang and others finally couldn't help it and shouted one by one: "Supervisor, don't be!"

Wang Yingxiong really didn't want to take risks in the "civil war" with his life, so he gritted his teeth and waved his hand, "Open the city gate and let General Zeng enter the city!"

Wang Xiang and several other generals were unwilling to do so, but some people didn't want to fight against tens of thousands of elite soldiers outside the city.

Because most people also don't want to die inexplicably from the "civil war".

So after Wang Yingxiong gave the order, the Xicheng Gate was opened.

Outside the city, Liu Zhenfan, Liu Wenxiu and other generals from the State Administration who had been waiting, immediately entered the city with their troops and horses in an orderly manner and with some vigilance.

As for the fact that Zunyi City has stationed so many soldiers and horses?

That was all the lie that Wang Xinliang had done before.

In this way, Zeng Ying risked his life and took Zunyi City in less than half an hour without any casualties and injuries.

As expected, this also means that he took the Zunyi Military and Civilian Palace without bloodshed...

Although he took over Zunyi City, Zeng Ying, Liu Zhenfan, and Liu Wenxiu did not slacken, but did the subsequent takeover of the city defense.

As for Wang Xiang, Luo Yuxin, Hou Tianci and others, more than 10,000 troops, although they were not disarmed, they were also "invited" to the north of the city and stationed in a large camp to facilitate Zeng Ying and others to monitor and prevent.

Wang Yingxiong, Wang Xinliang and other civil servants were still arranged to be in their original residences, but the soldiers of the border guards were arranged to "protect" outside the door.

Zeng Ying arrived at Zunyi City in the afternoon.

So when they handed over the city defense with Wang Xiang and others, it was almost evening.

In Wang Yingxiong's mansion.
