Chapter 487 0482 [Rebellion in Tokyo]

Since the previous bloody battle, Ju Ming has been replenishing and reorganizing his cavalry.

The sources of additional soldiers were mostly from good families in Gyeonggi.

Especially when Chen Yuyi recruited troops to guard Chenliu, many good family members took the initiative to join the army, including many who were skilled in horsemanship.

Immediately afterwards, Ju Ming issued a recruitment order and posted notices in cities along the Huimin River, Cai River, Bian River, Zhengshui River, Bianjin River, and Guangji River to encourage those who knew how to ride and shoot to join the army.

Now, the number of Han and Qiang cavalry under Deng Chun's command has been replenished to 3,000.

The Hebei cavalry under Geng Zhongnian's command increased to 1,500.

The number of heavy cavalry under Chen Ziyi's command increased to 872. The war horses and heavy armor were all captured from Hezha Men'an.

Even Guo Yaoshi's cavalry troops were replenished to a round number of eight hundred.

"Shoot them all to death!"

A young general led more than ten people on horseback. When he saw the golden soldiers on board, he immediately ordered the cavalry to fire arrows, not knowing that there was an emperor on board.

More than twenty golden soldiers on the boat also drew their bows and fought back, and at the same time ordered the boatman to speed up and dock.

As the horns continued to sound, the number of riders gathered increased, but the closest one was only a few hundred meters away.

"Emperor, come up quickly!" Wang Jun shouted on horseback.

However, Zhao Huan, together with the empress, Concubine Shen, and the prince, hid in the cabin and shivered, unwilling to take a step.

Seeing the enemy cavalry surrounding them, Wang Jun was furious: "Trash, you can't even escape with your life!"

Zhu Xiaosun was also speechless with the emperor, so he got into the cabin again and said: "Your Majesty, while there are not many thieves, hurry ashore and escape for your life!"

"I surrender, I surrender!" Zhao Huan said in panic.

Zhu Xiaosun looked like you're kidding me. He was so angry that he drew his knife and threw it to the ground. He sat next to him and waited to be caught.

Wang Jun was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. The Zhu Thieves' cavalry were gathering, but Zhao Huan wasted his time and wasted the opportunity to break through.

After a while of shooting, Wang Jun shouted: "Ignore the Emperor of Song, just rush over!"

Although Wang Jun was a civil servant of the Jin Kingdom, he also knew how to ride and shoot. He led more than thirty golden cavalry and fled towards the Yellow River while shooting.

The young general who led the troops to chase the enemy was named Zhang Xian, who was Yue Fei's general in history.

He joined the army when Ju Ming divided his forces to attack Langzhong. He was first attached to Bai Qi's troops. Because he was proficient in riding and archery, he was transferred to Deng Chun's command. The former army also killed two Hezha Men'an on the battlefield.

Zhang Xian did not fight against the Jin soldiers, but only led his troops to shoot arrows to follow.

By the time the Jin people rushed to the Yellow River embankment, the number of cavalry under Zhang Xian's command had increased to more than forty, and dozens of other cavalry were still rushing towards this direction.

Wang Jun was frightened out of his mind because the situation was far beyond his expectation.

In order to prevent the Jin people from crossing the river, Ju Ming dispersed the rangers widely, and sent rangers to patrol for twenty miles upstream and downstream. Therefore, the density was not high, and the focus was only on reconnaissance. It was impossible to gather hundreds of riders as quickly as now.

There is only one reason why things change.

That is because Ju Ming was sure that Jin Ren would not cross the river to rescue him, so he gathered up the rangers and used them only to cruise around Tokyo City.

If Wang Jun knew this, he would not risk his life and take the emperor away!

When more than sixty Han and Qiang cavalry gathered, Wang Jun was forced to launch a countercharge. He had to kill the young general in front of him, otherwise the enemy cavalry would gather more and more, and he could be killed by just shooting arrows.

The cavalry under Zhang Xian's command was nearly twice as many as the Jin's, but they did not fight with these Jin's cavalry at all.

They alternated covering and shooting, constantly stalling for time, waiting for more friendly forces to come and join forces.

It wasn't until nearly a hundred troops had gathered that Zhang Xian issued a flag order and changed his tactics to wait for an opportunity to attack.

With three times the force, the Jin people were confused and completely disrupted the enemy's formation. Zhang Xian finally blew the trumpet and charged.

The war horse under his crotch has been changed from a southwestern pony to a northern war horse captured from the Jin Dynasty. Zhang Xian particularly likes this horse and cherishes it very much. He takes care of it personally every day.

Whoosh!

During the charge, an arrow was shot, and a golden man fell from his horse.

The bow and arrows in Zhang Xian's hand are not the military standard, but a hard bow with heavy arrows. If it were an ordinary person, let alone riding and shooting, it would be difficult to draw it even while standing.

The Jin cavalry in front of him did not wear heavy armor, and he shot directly through the armor at close range.

"Bah!"

Zhang Xian and Wang Jun passed by on the wrong horse, and a three-meter-long lance struck Wang Jun hard, knocking him off the horse alive.

More than ninety Han Qiang cavalry fought against more than twenty Jin cavalry (seven were shot to death, and everyone who survived was hit by arrows). The battle ended quickly.

Except for one of Zhang Xian's cavalrymen who unfortunately died in battle and another who suffered a broken arm, the other twenty-odd people were only slightly injured, so they dispatched all the thirty-odd golden cavalrymen.

The weapons and armor of both sides were equal. With the superior strength of the troops, Zhang Xian alone killed and wounded six people: three were wounded while cruising, one was killed during combat, and two more were killed in close combat.

The long-term tactical formation training showed amazing results at this time, and the Han and Qiang cavalry cooperated extremely well.

The two who were killed and seriously injured were all newly recruited Henan cavalry.

Zhang Xian had people clean the battlefield and sent the wounded soldiers back for treatment. He rode to the moat and yelled: "People on the boat, come here immediately!"

I shouted for a long time, but no one answered.

Zhang Xian yelled again: "Kill them all if they don't get off the boat!"

Finally, Zhao Huan came out of the cabin tremblingly. His legs were weak when he walked, and he had to rely on Zhu Xiaosun to support him.

Empress Zhu Lian, on the other hand, was quite courageous and always protected the eight-year-old prince Zhao Chen, as if she wanted to fight Zhang Xian. Concubine Shen Zhu Xuan, on the other hand, hugged the four-year-old Roujia Emperor Ji and did not dare to lower her head. Make eye contact with these cavalrymen.

Zhang Xian finally felt something was wrong and asked: "Who are you?"

Before these people could answer, Fan Qiong had already found a boat to cross the river, knelt down in front of Zhang Xian and said, "Fan Qiong, the guilty general, pays homage to the general. The good general knows that these are the emperor, empress and concubine Shen of the violent Song Dynasty. The uncle, the prince and the emperor!"

Zhang Xian's mouth slowly opened, and opened wider and wider.

I was just ordered to conduct reconnaissance to prevent important personnel from escaping, but I actually killed the emperor and empress of Zhao and Song Dynasties?

"General, spare your life!" Zhao Huan was so frightened that he knelt down to Zhang Xian on the spot.

Zhang Xian quickly got out of the way, he couldn't afford this.

Zhu Lian couldn't stand it any longer. He protected his son with one hand and supported the emperor with the other, and whispered: "Guan family, even if the Zhu thief wants to kill us, it's better not to do it now. The thief in front of me not only doesn't know how to kill, but

We're afraid something might happen to us. Don't... don't lose your dignity."

Zhao Huan was always a smart man, but after hearing what the queen said, he instantly regained his senses.

He stood up and straightened his clothes, quickly regained his imperial demeanor, stood with his hands behind his back and said: "Take me... take me to see Marshal Zhu. I want to give him the Zen position. I only hope he can treat the people well."

"Do you need a fool like you to say you should be kind to the people?" Zhang Xian said sarcastically.

Zhang Xian was born into a wealthy family in Langzhong, but in recent years his family had fallen into decline. He attributed all of this to the brutality and government exploitation of the Zhao and Song Dynasties.

Just when Zhang Xian was escorting the emperor and his family back to the camp, Qiang general Yang Yun came over with his cavalry: "Will there be a fierce battle?"

"Hey, I caught the emperor and the queen." Zhang Xian was so happy that he couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.

Yang Yun was startled, then cursed: "Straight bitch, you are lucky."

Just as the two were chatting, thick smoke suddenly billowed out of the city, followed by increasingly chaotic shouts.

Fan Qiong said: "The news must have spread that the emperor had fled, and the army and people in the city were in chaos!"

Yang Yun said to Zhang Xian, "You escort the emperor back to the camp without making any mistakes. Send a few more cavalry and go back at full speed to inform the marshal of the news." Then he said to Fan Qiong, "Follow me into the city to suppress the thugs. This is Tokyo."

No chaos!"

"yes!"

Zhang Xian and Fan Qiong took the order.

Although Tokyo was already well established, Ju Ming delayed attacking the city because he was waiting for the Jin people to cross the river to rescue him. He even deliberately did not block the passages and allowed Jin envoys to enter and leave the city.

It was determined last night that the Jin people would not be able to cross the river, and they planned a general attack this morning, so they asked the cavalry to block the route out of the city.

Unexpectedly, before the main force of the rebel army left the camp, Tokyo fell into chaos.

First, the eunuchs and palace maids who still had their families moved home after the emperor and his party escaped. Their actions were discovered by the people, and more and more people rushed to the imperial city, saying that there were people in the palace.

Mountains of food.

The palace guards who fled home were also concerned about the treasure inside and returned one after another with weapons.

The recruited army of King Qin of Shandong also joined the ranks of looting the imperial city because its composition was too complicated and its camp was not far from the palace.

Then, soldiers from Tokyo and Shaanxi also came.

Seeing that there were too many people looting the imperial city, the latecomers rushed towards the homes of the powerful. Anyway, the emperor had run away, and those clans, nobles, important ministers, and wealthy businessmen had lost their prestige. They must have food at home, so go and grab some first.

Let’s talk about the stomach.

Some people also took the opportunity to take revenge and not only robbed money and food, but also killed people and set fires!

Zhang Shuye rushed over on horseback and was unable to restrain his men. Song Jiang and Sun Lie's troops were having fun in the imperial city.

The troops in the Zhongshi division were not much better, because most of them were temporarily trained and were looting several nearby palaces.

The newly appointed Kaifeng governor Wang Shiyong was still sleeping in the back house of the government office when he heard shouts of murder coming from outside. He was so frightened that he had no time to put on his clothes, so he abandoned his concubine and hid in the rockery in the garden.

Kaifeng Prefecture official Cao Yu Zhao Ding said to the frightened officials: "Don't panic, it is a great achievement to keep the documents of Kaifeng Prefecture intact."

"There is chaos in the city, and I want to go back to protect my family." said an official.

Zhao Ding angrily rebuked: "I'm confused. There are countless riots and chaos outside. What's the use of going back alone? You have a family, don't I? It's time to change the dynasty. The documents and books of Kaifeng Mansion are precious. Only by keeping these can we have a foundation." .Go to a few people, capture the governor, and throw him into the street to let the people vent their anger, so that they will not rush to the government office!"

The officials felt that it was reasonable, so they took up weapons to block the door, and some people rushed into the back house to arrest the governor of Kaifeng.

Wang Shiyong, who was hiding in the rockery, was eventually caught by the government officials and taken out together with several of his children and grandchildren.

Angry Tokyo residents are banging on the gate of the government office.

Zhao Ding put up a ladder and climbed up the wall, asked the officials to push Wang Shiyong up, and shouted outside: "The governor of Kaifeng is here!"

After shouting more than ten times in succession, the people under the wall heard it, and one after another twenty or thirty people looked up.

"Don't harm me, don't harm me..." Wang Shiyong begged bitterly.

Zhao Ding didn't care about this, he pushed Wang Shiyong off the wall directly, and said with a smile: "Have a great time today!"

"Beat this guy to death!"

The people in Tokyo hate the Kaifeng governor the most. No matter who takes this position, they will all take the blame.

Countless people surrounded Wang Shiyong and beat him. Those outside could not squeeze in, so they shouted and cheered for those inside.

This "Golden Grandpa" was beaten to death under the wall.

Zhao Ding was afraid that the gate of the government office would be broken through, so he shouted again: "One more."

As a result, Wang Shiyong's son was pushed up the wall, and then pushed out of the wall.

The angry people didn't even ask who it was. Anyway, they must be corrupt officials, and they would beat them up immediately upon seeing them.

And the officials in the government office were constantly bringing in tables and stools, blocking the door again and again.

"Someone climbed in through the wall!"

Zhao Ding hurriedly walked down the wall, guarded several houses with a knife, and said to the people who came over the wall: "These are all documents and books. You can't eat them or wear them. If you rob them, you will be beheaded by Marshal Zhu." Let's go to the treasury. Although there is not much wealth left there, there are still some precious gold and silver. Someone, please show them the way!"

But it was said that Fan Qiong followed Yang Yun into the city and was about to summon the troops in the city when he learned that most of his soldiers had gone to rob.

This guy gathered the rebels along the way and found that no one was obeying him. He simply smashed the jars and rushed to the palace of King Yun Zhao Kai with his own soldiers.

Firstly, capturing King Yun can be a meritorious service, and secondly, King Yun’s family has countless gold and silver treasures!
