Chapter 211 The East Palace descends

Enemies were really on a narrow road, and Huang Hao also saw Yang Ximei who was leading a charge to kill her.

Seeing Yang Xiuqing's body being carried by his guards in the distance, Huang Hao suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

"Yang Xiuqing! Yang Xiuqing! You also have today." Huang Hao thought in his heart.

Looking at the group of female relatives following behind, Huang Hao's eyes revealed a greedy look.

"The King of Heaven has an order. Except for Dong Ni Yang Xiuqing, the rest will surrender and not be killed." Huang Hao shouted loudly.

He relied on his status as the Prime Minister of the Heavenly King's Mansion and gave the order directly, regardless of the military commander of the Beifu Mansion who was present.

"Brothers and sisters, fight out, join the Dongfu soldiers guarding the city, and avenge Dongwang!" Yang Ximei shouted to the people around her.

"Revenge! Revenge!" The people who are still left behind are all diehards of the East Palace. How could they listen to Huang Hao's empty words?

The people in Beifu were shot by a wave of pistols and suffered heavy losses. Now they saw the reinforcements coming and they all retreated.

Huang Hao originally wanted to reap the benefits, but he didn't expect that the other party would come and kill him like this.

"You don't know how to praise me! Kill me!" Huang Hao ordered to his men.

Huang Hao had thousands of men under his command, and he brought out more than a thousand of the three thousand guards from the Heavenly King's Mansion, while the rest remained in the Heavenly King's Mansion.

Hong Xiuquan is not a fool, and he must keep some strength by his side to protect himself.

As soon as they came up, Huang Hao's side had the advantage. After Yang Ximei's female soldiers emptied their pistols, they had no time to reload them.

He could only pull out his sword and follow the opponent's male soldiers to attack him. The original male guards of the East Prince's Palace were almost dead.

It can be said that Yang Ximei has reached the end of her rope. Even Yang Ximei herself drew her sword and joined the battle group.

She is tall and slender, and is no match against male soldiers. Coupled with her flexible body, she is very tricky with every sword thrust.

After a while, five or six people were knocked to the ground by her.

But more people gathered around her.

"Catch that woman, she will live if she turns out to be true." When Huang Hao saw Yang Ximei coming towards him, he pulled the reins of his horse and hurriedly retreated. He did not forget to order the soldiers to surround Yang Ximei.

"This woman must not let her die like this. I want her to beg for mercy on my crotch." Huang Hao thought in his heart.

Since you can't beat this woman, then try another way to defeat her.

Manpower will eventually be limited. Under the siege of so many people, Yang Ximei is finally exhausted and is about to be captured alive.

At this moment, another group of people came to the street. All of these people held muskets in their hands and did not even use torches. Only vague human figures could be seen.

From a distance of two to three hundred meters, a volley of guns was fired at the back of the group of people led by Huang Hao.

Huang Hao quickly jumped off the horse. He didn't want to become a target while riding on the horse.

Such a small street suddenly gathered people from all directions, and it became even more chaotic.

Huang Hao quickly separated a group of people and killed them backwards.

However, on the narrow and flat streets, these people were shot to the ground before they could run a few steps.

The equipment of the special forces members is the best in the Huai Navy. More than a hundred special forces members are coming towards us, and Huang Hao's men are no match for them.

Others may not know it yet, but Huang Hao can tell that these people must be Huai Haijun.

But why did Huai Haijun appear in Tianjing City? Huang Hao thought about it and was horrified, thinking of Huai Haijun's past actions.

It seems that they often do this kind of thing of taking advantage of others. Others are like the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind them, but they are dedicated to catching the oriole.

There was a "bang" gunshot, and this time there was fire coming from the roofs on both sides of the street.

Huang Hao felt a sharp pain in his arm.

It turned out that the gunmen from the special operations team had reached the roof and were shooting down from the roofs on both sides.

Now Huang Hao panicked. There were torches on his side, and it was bright. On the other side, he could only hear the sound of gunshots, and he had no idea how many people there were.

"Come and protect me and retreat!" Huang Hao shouted to his confidants. Several people immediately surrounded him.

Although Huang Hao's character was not very good, he had no family in Tianjing City and all his money was lost with his brothers.

Therefore, someone actually came over to help him block the gun at this moment. When the other subordinates saw that the commander had withdrawn, they no longer had the heart to fight and ran towards the alley on one side.

They ran in such a hurry that they didn't even have the basic structure. However, this made it impossible for the special forces to pursue them.

The remaining people in Beifu were quickly eliminated.

"We are the Huaihai Navy, we are here to rescue you, don't panic." At this time, someone on the roof shouted to the only remaining Dongwangfu troops.

Yang Ximei dragged her tired arms, picked up the bloody sword, found a corpse on the ground, wiped the sword back and forth on the corpse's clothes a few times, and then put it back into the scabbard.

"I'm Yang Ximei, call your leader over here."

After a while, a middle-aged man, holding a rifle in his hand and a grenade hanging on his body, trotted up to Yang Ximei.

"Hello, Mr. Yang, I am Duan Quan, captain of the first squadron of the third brigade of the second detachment of the Huaihai Navy Special Forces. Please move with us."

Most people in the Huaihai Navy know Yang Ximei. She has been dealing with the Huaihai Navy as a Taiping Army official, so Duan Quan calls her Master Yang.

"Why are you here?" Although time was tight, Yang Ximei still asked the question in her heart.

The appearance of this group of Huai Haijun was so strange that she had to be suspicious.

"Master Yang, because of the Zen position arranged by King Dong, our headquarters feels that there may be something unusual in Tianjing City. So we arranged for us to lurk in Tianjing to explore the situation on the one hand and protect our people on the other."

Duan Quan spoke frankly, but in fact they were all prearranged remarks.

Yang Ximei was about to say why Huai Haijun didn't support Tianwang Mansion earlier. But when she thought about it, she didn't realize it in advance, and Huai Haijun had no way of noticing it in advance.

Besides, it is normal for Huai Haijun to plan for Tianjing. She has been involved in political affairs for more than a year, which has made her more mature. Naturally, she no longer naively thinks that others should be nice to him.

What the squadron leader said was reasonable. Now that time was running out, Yang Ximei immediately led her men and retreated toward the city gate with the special forces team.

The people who broke into Dongwang Mansion were already chasing after them.

"Captain Duan, can you contact your senior management?" Yang Ximei asked Duan Quan on the way back.

Yang Ximei knew that she could not avenge her brother on her own. Although she still had the title of Dongwangfu, Dongwang was dead, and her former subordinates would inevitably have to join forces again. It was not certain how many of them she could bring over.

Therefore, she planned to join the Huai Navy as instructed by Yang Xiuqing. This way she could at least save her little nephew.

Moreover, if the people under Yang Xiuqing know that they have joined the Huai Navy, there must be more people willing to follow them.

The strength of the Huaihai Navy is obvious to all within the Taiping Army. With Dong Wang gone, joining the Huaihai Navy is a way out. Everyone wants to have a strong backer.

"Master Yang, to be honest, our Huaihai Navy has made preparations for the sudden change in Tianjing. By this time, the army should have arrived outside the city."

"What?" Yang Ximei was surprised for a while, but thinking about it, the two sides were hostile, and it was natural for Huai Haijun to want to plan the Taiping Army.

"Okay, you send someone to tell Dong Shuheng that we are willing to join the Huai Navy, but he must promise to treat the family members of the Dongwang Palace and these soldiers well."

"Don't worry, Mr. Yang, I will send someone to report immediately. But please do your best, Mr. Yang."

"I understand. I will go with you to convince the Dongwangfu soldiers guarding the city."

During the fierce battle in the East Palace, the remaining troops of the Beifeng Gate at Yifeng Gate were suddenly attacked by the special forces.

The special forces launched a surprise attack from within the city, using shotguns to clear the area and using hand grenades to quickly occupy the city gate.

Wei Changhui's troops were tight, so he didn't have many troops left at the city gate.

This allowed the special forces to capture the city gate so quickly. In addition, Tianjing City was in chaos at this time, and the entire city had lost its unified command.

The various guards under the jurisdiction of the East Prince's Mansion could only stick to their posts at this time and had no idea what to do, and no one dared to leave their posts without permission.

Yifeng Gate faces the river, which is convenient for the Huaihai Navy to enter the city.

The first people to enter the city were the men and horses of the special forces. They formed a team of dozens or hundreds of people. After entering the city, they dispersed. They had their own goals.

The regular troops who followed went straight to the Dongwang Mansion.

Wei Changhui, Qin Rigang and their men were furious at the Dongwang Palace. Wei Changhui ordered that no one from the Dongwang Palace should be spared, not even the maids and servants.

The men were busy killing people, which also slowed down Wei Changhui and the others.

Only then did Yang Ximei and the others escape. By the time Wei Changhui reacted and organized troops to pursue them, Yang Ximei had already retreated along the set route with the special forces team.

"This Wei Changhui is not a good person. When he entered the city, he didn't even come to see me at the Heavenly Palace and acted without permission." Hong Xiuquan complained to several ministers in the Heavenly Palace.

With such a big movement, Hong Xiuquan naturally wanted to recruit his important officials into the palace.

"King of Heaven, maybe the King of the North is worried about missing the opportunity to fight," Hu Yihuang said to the side.

He was worried that it would be terrible if the King of Heaven suddenly lost his mind and wanted to attack Wei Changhui. There were soldiers and horses of King Bei and King Yan in the capital today.

"King Yu, you go to the various gates to collect the troops originally belonging to King Dong." Hong Xiuquan then remembered that he didn't have many troops.

At this time, the news of Yang Xiuqing's death had reached the palace. If Hong Xiuquan did not gather these troops, Wei Changhui would be completely advantaged.

"Subordinate, obey the order!" Hu Yihuang accepted the order and left, taking his 500 soldiers with him.

Wei Changhui left some troops to guard the East Mansion, while the others prepared to divide into several groups to accept Yang Xiuqing's men inside and outside the city.

Whether it was Wei Changhui or Hu Yihuang, they were both a step too late.

After Yang Ximei escaped, she arranged the women and children at the Huaihai Navy's secret gathering point.

Then, she used Yang Xiuqing's seal to issue a decree, asking the garrison of each gate to surrender to the Huaihai Navy and cooperate to suppress the troops of the King of Heaven, King of the North and King of Yan.

The garrison in the capital that day was regarded as Yang Xiuqing's core. They saw Yang Xiuqing's order and resolutely carried it out without hesitation.

There were also some Dongfu men who wanted to set up a separate branch, claiming that Yang Ximei was a traitor. However, these people were killed by the special forces immediately, and then the special forces quickly controlled these troops with the assistance of Dongfu messengers.

Of course, Yang Ximei's popularity in the army this year has also played an important role.

Hu Yihuang's men and horses were still on the street. Hu Yihuang, who was riding a horse, was hit by a musket from hiding in the dark and fell off his horse.

Wei Changhui's troops had just assembled on the street outside Dongwang Mansion, and they directly collided with Huai Haijun's regular army.

The infantry entering the city were the first and second regiments of the instructors of the Huaihai Navy. The instructors were the ace unit of the Huaihai Navy.

The quality of the soldiers is the highest among all divisions, and the equipment is also the best. The two sides immediately started fighting as soon as they met.

"Where did these Huai Haijun come from?" Wei Changhui was also panicked. He had forgotten that Tianjing City was originally surrounded by Huai Hai Hai on three sides. Pukou was only separated from Tianjing by a river.
