Chapter 284 Is there a eunuch as the emperor?

The Biao camp troops arrived soon, giving Shanhaiguan defenders great confidence and confidence. Therefore, they once again refused to implement the Liaodong Dushi military order and refused to allow the emperor's personal army to enter the pass. At the same time, they mobilized soldiers and the people to urgently repair the fortifications on the city and prepare for perseverance.

Ma Yi even said that if the eunuchs dare to conquer the key points, their bodies must be united with the city walls.

However, there are very few people who agree with it. Even He Kegang also believes that Ma Yi's words are purely for the purpose of inspiring the morale of the army.

The strength of the enemy and us is very different. If the eunuchs really attack the city, they may have more casualties than the other side.

However, He Kegang believes that there should be no problem with being able to hold on for a day. After all, Shanhaiguan is an important city and the terrain is special and terrain occupies a good geographical location. The eunuchs forcefully attack the city without taking any casualties and taking advantage of human lives, and it is impossible to easily seize it.

Once the Jizhen Biao Battalion arrives, the strength of the defenders will be compensated. When the rest of the troops arrive, the enemy and our forces will be reversed. At that time, we will not consider the issue of perseverance, but whether we will "put the rebellion" to "put it down."

Under this circumstance, He Kegang and others cooperated with Ma Yi and prepared to compete with the eagle soldiers at the close of the gate.

"They have been given a chance, but they are not sure. Master of the division, what are you waiting for? You haven't ordered your soldiers to seize Shanhaiguan and march towards the imperial capital for justice!"

Song Xiance, who has always been closely monitoring the progress of the situation, was not very patient. If there was no secret order, he would have to use force to solve the problem when the peaceful means were completely ineffective. Director Song would have long urged the Fifth Division to take action.

After confirming that the garrison of the 5th Division, Chang Anguo Temple, who was already deeply angry, confirmed that the guards at the gate did not control the imperial army at all and could not be fully compatible, he finally made up his mind to launch a full-scale attack on Shanhaiguan at noon.

"Once the attack is officially launched, all troops must carry forward the emperor's fearless spirit of his own army, be loyal and brave, and be glorious with the entire imperial army!"

"A little close, a big capital!"

"In order for the fate of the empire to no longer turn, our division commander asked you to sacrifice!"

In addition to the two infantry corps of the Fifth Division, the attacking force also has an infantry corps of the Fourth Division, an infantry brigade of the Special Detachment, and an artillery unit.

After receiving the order, the attacking troops quickly assembled to Shanhaiguan and no longer concealed the battle flags of the various troops representing the glorious battles outside Shanhaiguan.

Phoenix Mountain Attack Team!

Kyoto Death Force!

Taiwan advances to the army!

Team of Victory in a Hundred Battles!

Army of Steel!

.........

Dozens of battle flags drifting in the wind on the hills of Guandong. Under the battle flag are imperial officers and soldiers lined up in an orderly manner. The bayonets emit bright light in the sun.

"The ultimatum is that if your troops remain closed before noon, our army will start to attack!"

On behalf of the emperor's personal army, Kumamoto submitted the final notice to Shanhaiguan.

Amid the sound of "dongdongdongdongdongdongdong", the emperor's personal army began to slowly approach Shanhaiguan. Artillery shells flew past the gate from time to time, but the personal artillery troops began to adjust the muzzle to measure the distance for the upcoming real attack.

"Long live the empire, long live the emperor!"

The sound of shocking sounds erupted by the imperial officers and soldiers resounded throughout Shanhaiguan, causing the little courage that Qiantun Guard had just raised to shake again.

A huge banner was pulled by hundreds of soldiers to show it to the close of the door. The banner was filled with four big words "Respecting the Emperor to Combat Traitor".

"Hmph, the eunuchs will bite you back. Why is my Qiantun Guard a traitor?"

Ma Yi was really not afraid of the strong army in his bones. I am afraid that the entire Qiantun Guard, who was born in the "Xima" general, would have enough courage to prepare for a battle.

As the noon was getting closer, the smoke bombs on the opposite side also took off from time to time, and both sides began to fall silent. Everyone knew that the next one would definitely be a big battle, a bloody battle of unknown how many people would die.

However, just as the two sides were at a strife and the war was about to begin, an accident left the Qiantun Guards at Shanhai Pass no longer resisted.

A navy under the banner of the Emperor's personal army joint fleet landed in Yongping Prefecture. After about 3,000 soldiers, the navy and marine soldiers quickly advanced to Shanhaiguan, forming internal and external attacks with the army outside the pass.

The person who brought back this news was Zhang Ye, the Liaodong Mining Supervisor who had escaped by carriage earlier.

"You can't fight, you can't fight!"

Eunuch Zhang has seen the world, but now he is very sane. He has watched with his own eyes the Imperial Army wearing white hats and opening to Shanhaiguan.

If he hadn't run fast, he would have been captured by those imperial troops.

An enemy came from behind, causing the door to close and the door to explode.

If you deal with the eunuchs outside the pass alone, the number of people in the Qiantun Guards is small, and you can still fight in the previous battle even if you have a small number of people.

But how do you fight the castration soldiers coming from behind?

There is no second level behind Shanhaiguan!

Ma Yi knew something was wrong, so he quickly sent someone to ask for help from Biaoying in Jizhen and the nearby Shitang Road.

At this time, Mangui's troops were less than twenty miles away from Shanhaiguan. If their troops stepped up their march, they would be expected to arrive at Shanhaiguan in front of the eunuchs landing in Yongping and set up defenses.

However, after receiving a request for help from Shanhaiguan, Man Gui did not send an order to speed up the marching, but instead ordered his subordinates to stand by on the spot.

The Qiantun Wei messenger who came to ask for help was anxious and begged Manguishan Haiguan to be in danger. If the eunuchs broke through the capital, it would be dangerous!

"Don't exaggerate here, what kind of danger in the capital is absurd!"

Man Gui angrily scolded the messenger, "It was also the Ming army outside the closing gate. I don't know why the two sides fought, but before I got the specific order from above, I, Man Gui, would never attack my own people!"

The messenger had no choice but to rush back to close the door to report the news, but after closing the door, he found that the flag on the city had already changed and the city gate had already opened.

A group of generals from Qiantun Guard, led by Zhang Ye, the Liaodong Mining Supervisor, were standing respectfully at the city gate, with a wry smile on their faces looking at the teams of Imperial Army moving into the pass.

Not far away, the chief of the division of the Fifth Division of the Imperial Army, Anguo Temple, and Song Xiance, the director of the attendant's office, were chatting with a general eagerly.

That general is Wang Xuan, the general of Baoding.

Wang Xuan's troops were still a hundred miles away, and he and a few personal guards rushed to Shanhaiguan. The moment he arrived, the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Division had already begun to launch a desperate attack.

Wang Xuan stopped Ma Yi, who was strongly advocating the war, and ordered Li Huoyang to open the city gate with the ability to control the troops from all walks of life.

Zhang Ye, the Kuangjian of Liaodong, judged the situation and stood up to express his views that they were all the Ming army, so how could they fight with each other?

"Mr. Wang, Eunuch Zhang, the eunuchs are under the banner of honoring the emperor to challenge traitors. They are going to go to the Qing dynasty to rebel!"

Ma Yi tried his best to defend himself.

"What's wrong with the emperor's pursuit of traitor?"

Eunuch Zhang's face darkened, "If there are treacherous ministers in the court, what's wrong with the emperor's personal army as His Majesty's personal army to fight against traitors!"

"After the Governor General ordered his official to control the army, the upper and lower guards of the front guard should follow the orders of his official!"

Baoding General Wang Xuan strongly suppressed Ma Yi and ordered his left and right generals to take Ma Yi down the city. Later, he asked if the Qiantun Guard General Li Huoyang was following the order.

After hesitating, Li Huoyang expressed his willingness to obey General Wang's control. Then, the door was closed and a heavy bleeding was stopped.

"Wang is here just unwilling to kill each other in the Ming army, but Wang is unwilling to become a sinner pointed by thousands of people in history books. Therefore, please tell Mr. Song the truth, does Eunuch Wei have the intention to be disobedient?"

"The General is too worried, too much."
