As soon as Supervisor Lu poked his head out of the corner door, he saw a big man following Zhu Jin.
This big guy looks quite familiar. Isn't he King Qin Rigang of Yan?
For a moment, Supervisor Lu didn't know what to do and was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, Qin Rigang poked out the short spear in his hand, hitting the Lu Supervisor in the face.
This Lu Supervisor was also unlucky. Before he could say a word, he fell to the ground with a short spear stuck in the door.
Qin Rigang raised the sword in his hand and rushed in through the small door. The soldiers guarding the door were all Yang Xiuqing's confidants. When he saw this situation, he immediately realized what was going on.
One by one, they rushed forward desperately to block the corner door. However, the doorway was narrow. Qin Rigang was wearing heavy armor and holding a saber, just like a human tank.
The horse-zanting sword in his hand is extremely sharp, and he can swing it from left to right, often killing multiple people with one strike. Moreover, as long as he is hit by the horse-zanting sword, all the bones and flesh will be broken, and some people will even be cut in half at the waist.
The gate had been opened by King Bei's men, and the city gate was quickly cleared out, but the entire mansion had already received an early warning.
There are thousands of guards in this mansion, and guards are gathering here one after another.
Yang Xiuqing and a group of confidants also came out to check the situation. He never expected that someone would attack the Dongwang Mansion at this juncture.
Could it be that Hong Xiuquan wants to fight like a trapped beast?
Thousands of guards quickly gathered in the front yard and charged forward under the command of Yang Xiuqing.
The elite men of Wei Changhui and Qin Rigang, led by Qin Rigang and Xu Zongyang, rushed forward like a sharp sword.
Qin and Xu are the sharpest points of this sword.
"According to the order of the King of Heaven, kill Dong Ni!"
"Kill!"
There is no need to hide at this time, the shouts of killing are loud enough.
Just as Yang Xiuqing was about to step forward with his guards, he saw the guards in front of him were retreating.
These palace guards are not cowards, but the other party is too strong. Those in front of them will basically die if they charge forward.
Qin Rigang and Xu Zongyang continued to advance with their men like chopping melons and vegetables.
Although the guards of the East Palace were brave, they were at a numerical disadvantage and lacked a capable general to lead them, so they could only retreat while fighting.
"Who is attacking the palace?" Yang Xiuqing pulled a brigade commander over and asked.
When the man saw that it was His Highness Dongwang, he quickly knelt down on the ground.
"My subordinates only saw that the leader was King Qin Rigang of Yan."
When Yang Xiuqing heard that it was King Qin Rigang of Yan, he frowned. Why did Qin Rigang sneak into the city?
"Follow me back!" Yang Xiuqing shouted to the soldiers around him.
A stupid young man like Qin Rigang now dared to bully him.
Yang Xiuqing is also a person with a strong personality, and having been in power for so many years, Yang Xiuqing also has her own personality.
"Kill!" The soldiers around him saw that King Dong was taking the lead, and their morale was immediately boosted.
Yang Xiuqing sent out all 200 personal guards around him to lead the charge.
After finally stabilizing their formation, the two sides started fighting in the front yard.
In fact, Yang Xiuqing was not prepared to fight to the death. As long as he ran to the city wall, he would basically be his soldiers. In addition, there were also his soldiers in the barracks in the city, but this would take time.
That's why he didn't retreat, but pushed forward with his men, willing to put himself in danger to boost the morale of his soldiers.
In the backyard, I heard the cry of killing in the front yard, and it was now a mess.
There were female soldiers guarding the backyard. Normally, these female soldiers looked extremely fierce. But now they were as panicked as ordinary women.
Yang Ximei lived in a courtyard in this backyard. She was fully dressed at this time, carrying a sword in her hand and a pistol in her belt.
She bought these from Huai Haijun. There were fifty of them in total, and they were distributed to her personal female soldiers.
Yang Ximei directed her personal female soldiers to gather the panicked female soldiers from the Dongwang Palace in the backyard.
After a while, five to six hundred people gathered.
"Go to each courtyard separately and gather all the princesses."
Yang Xiuqing's backyard was very large. There were probably thousands of princesses, female officials, and maids in total.
It took a long time to gather these people together.
These women are probably less than 20 years old, and most of them have been recruited after arriving in Tianjing in the past few years.
It is said that beauties come from the south of the Yangtze River. The women of Dongwang are all fat and thin, and they are all top-notch beauties.
Now, the branches are trembling, and the pear blossoms are crying, as if they are facing the end of the world.
"Shut up!" Yang Ximei yelled. She was so flustered by the crying of these women.
There are still shouts of murder in the front yard right now. I don’t know what the situation is?
"Report, Sister Dong Wang, King Yan and King Bei rebelled and entered the palace. King Dong asked you to take your family members in the backyard to break out from the back door and go to the city gate to mobilize troops, or go to the military camp in the east city."
"How is Dongwang?" Yang Ximei asked.
"King Dong is fine. Now he will lead his men to kill him."
After hearing that her brother was okay, Yang Ximei felt slightly relieved. She began to organize everyone to go to the back door.
These family members are somewhat afraid of Yang Ximei. Although some of them are real princesses, they are still not as important as their own girls in Yang Xiuqing's mind.
Normally, Yang Ximei would be polite to these women.
At this moment, when Yang Ximei yelled, no one really dared to speak out anymore.
However, it is not that easy to travel with this large group of women.
At least this speed is not fast, and some women with small feet have to be carried.
At this moment, there was a thunderous cheer from the front yard.
"Yang Xiuqing is dead!"
"Yang Xiuqing is dead!"
"Kill!"
The soldiers under King Bei and King Yan shouted together, and the sound could be heard clearly in the backyard.
It is said that Yang Xiuqing led people to kill him, but he would not directly rush to kill him.
There were guards on the front, back, left and right to protect him. He led his men to fight all the way to the front of the formation, just a stone's throw away from the troops led by Qin Rigang, Xu Zongyang and others.
"Qin Rigang, you are such a rebellious person. You dare to rebel. If you have the guts, please stand up." Yang Xiuqing shouted to the other side.
"Yang Xiuqing, you are the one who rebelled, right? The King of Heaven has identified you as a traitor. We are ordered by the King of Heaven to destroy Dong Ni." Before Qin Rigang could speak, Wei Changhui stood up and said.
He knew that Qin Rigang didn't have enough brains and would fall into Yang Xiuqing's trap if he was not careful.
"Yang Xiuqing, please surrender. The King of Heaven has sent tens of thousands of troops to surround this place. Don't worry, the King of Heaven will miss your old feelings and let you live."
"Hmph! Are you talking about that loser Hong Xiuquan? He will be nothing in a few days."
"Wei Changhui, you villain, have you forgotten how you were begging for mercy in front of me? If I had known you were such a repetitive villain, I should have destroyed you."
"Brothers opposite, listen, I want to take advantage of your ignorance and kidnap these two rebels, Wei Changhui and Qin Rigang, otherwise Heavenly Father will not let you go."
While Yang Xiuqing was talking eloquently, two gunshots suddenly rang out from a nearby roof.
Two shots hit Yang Xiuqing in the chest. It was also blamed on Yang Xiuqing for seeking death. People around him used torches to illuminate his surroundings.
He also wore a golden crown and a yellow robe inlaid with gold threads, making him particularly conspicuous there.
Two special force snipers were at a distance of less than 200 meters, and it was easy to hit this fixed handle.
"Target No. 1 is clear, retreat." The two gunmen took advantage of each other's panic and quickly evacuated through the shadow of the house.
These two special forces members are just a group active in Tianjing City tonight, and their purpose is to eliminate them at targeted locations.
Dong Shuheng personally drew up this top-secret elimination list.
Everyone at the scene thought it was Wei Changhui who arranged the gunman, and Wei Changhui thought it was Qin Rigang.
But now they don't have time to determine who fired the shot.
As soon as Yang Xiuqing died, it was a great opportunity to rush in and kill.
Qin Rigang and Xu Zongyang were the first to react and charged forward with their men. As soon as Yang Xiuqing fell, their own morale suddenly declined to the bottom.
Only some close men remained calm. Some of them carried Yang Xiuqing and retreated, while others turned around and fought back desperately.
However, they were quickly overwhelmed by the troops of King Bei and King Yan who rushed up.
Hearing the roar in the front yard, Yang Ximei stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
At this time, some guards had already retreated from the backyard gate. Several guards were carrying Yang Xiuqing.
The woman in the backyard saw Yang Xiuqing covered in blood and started crying again.
Yang Ximei suddenly threw herself to Yang Xiuqing's side.
"Brother! Brother!" Yang Ximei called with a tearful tone.
At this time, Yang Xiuqing still had a breath: "Sister, I'm sorry for you. I didn't listen to your advice and fell into Hong Xiuquan's scheme. I'm dying. You go and join the Huaihai Navy to help my brother get revenge."
"No, brother, you will be fine. I will send you to Yangzhou to find a doctor."
"Hurry up, or it will be too late." Yang Xiuqing said with all his last strength. After saying that, he tilted his head and realized that this time he was really going to see his heavenly father.
"Sister Dongwang, what should we do? There are still a few die-hard fans of Yang Xiuqing still there at this time, and the others have long since disappeared."
Yang Ximei endured her grief and calmed herself down.
"Take the body of King Dong and the Crown Prince, and we will retreat through the back door."
Yang Ximei couldn't care about these women at this time. Wei Changhui's men would come and kill them soon.
A group of female soldiers and the remaining Dongwang guards carried Yang Xiuqing's body and Yang Xiuqing's three-year-old son and quickly evacuated to the back door.
Those women can keep up if they can, even if they can't, now Yang Ximei doesn't have the time to care about these people.
As soon as I walked out of the back door and onto the street, I saw that the street had been blocked by Wei Changhui's people.
"Kill out!" Yang Ximei knew this was the only way out.
Dongwang's personal guards and Yang Ximei's men rushed at the front, followed by the female soldiers from the palace, and they all headed toward the street to kill.
The Beifu military commander guarding the street entrance quickly ordered his men to fire arrows. The Dongwang guards who rushed at the front held shields and could barely block the wave of arrows.
Let the female soldiers at the back approach. When the female soldiers under Yang Ximei approached, they all raised their revolvers and fired a wave of bursts.
Wei Changhui's men were caught off guard. Others also took the opportunity to fight in. The two sides were entangled for a while.
Just as they were about to break through the first blockade, another group of people came from the other end of the street.
It was Hong Xiuquan's palace guard. By the light of the fire, Yang Ximei recognized at a glance that the leader was Huang Hao.
