Thousands of miles away in the palace, Zhao Yanxun paid close attention to the situation in Jiangxi County.
An hour before the court meeting, he was still unfazed by the turmoil in Jing'an Mansion and believed that it could be suppressed with a backhand.
But when the military order to mobilize troops was sent to Jiangxi Dusi, but the other party reported that Dusi had been besieged and could not mobilize troops outside the city for the time being, Zhao Yanxun did not dare to be careless.
So he left the Jade Palace and returned to where the emperor should be.
Then, immediately after, he sent a military order to Hu Ben's right guard, asking the approaching two thousand forbidden troops to march to Jing'an.
At this point, Zhao Yanxun did not add any more orders. He believed that two thousand forbidden troops could solve the problem.
Fortunately, after waiting for less than half an hour, he received the good news.
"Hu Lizhen is a useful person, brave and resourceful!" Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but praise.
When the city is in chaos, someone who can pull together a group of people to put down a rebellion is not an ordinary capable person.
After the first piece of good news came, Zhao Yanxun received the second piece of good news: Huan led his guards to break out.
This means that the garrison troops stationed outside the city can participate in countering the rebellion as soon as possible without waiting for the imperial army to arrive.
Thousands of miles away, the vanguard troops of Jingan Guard have already marched towards the north gate of Fucheng.
It would normally take twenty minutes to walk from the military camp to here, but it only took them fifteen minutes.
Don't underestimate these five minutes, this is a completely unimaginable speed for the previous Jing'anwei.
Of course, the rapid march to the outside of the city was also thanks to the leadership of the officers.
When they learned that they were here to quell the rebellion, these officers acted very actively, because in their view, this was a wasted effort.
Their only worry was that they could not let the Forbidden Army further away divide the work, so they had to go faster.
Of course, during the march, Juan also assigned tasks to his subordinates.
So when they arrived at the North Gate, the number of troops was less than 1,500.
The other 1,500 people were arranged by him to go to the other three city gates, and he planned to get the turtle in the urn.
When the remaining 1,500 people arrived at the North Gate of Jing'an, the situation here was already precarious.
The rebel army that was defeated when Juan left not only came back, but also gathered more people.
"Reinforcements are coming, brothers...reinforcements are coming!" Baihu shouted in the military formation.
Realizing that the situation at the North Gate was critical, Juan did not dare to waste any time and immediately ordered the army to reinforce.
The guard troops he brought were different from those stationed in the city. These people had a full set of equipment, including long-range weapons.
After entering the position, the first step is for the archers to release arrows.
More than five hundred archers fired a single volley, knocking down nearly a hundred people immediately.
Such a killing effect directly reversed the decline of the battlefield. Even though there were more than 2,000 people on the opposite side, they were still afraid at this moment.
"put……"
This was followed by a second salvo, with arrows flying toward the rebels.
The rebels jumped left and right, and some even used their companions as human shields, just to avoid the deadly arrows.
While the archers were clearing the area, the soldiers with spears and shields at the rear also began to form formation in front.
After six months of rigorous training, the soldiers of Jing'an Guard responded calmly during actual combat, which really caught the rebels off guard.
Their impression of the combat effectiveness of the Guard Army was still the same as that of half a year ago.
"We are ordered to suppress thieves... kill them!" Juan shouted.
They are powerful in force and full of justice, so their morale is even higher.
Of course, Juan could simply shout slogans, but the hundreds of households below paid close attention to the military formation and issued orders to correct mistakes in a timely manner.
The military formation moved forward steadily, and only the continuous arrows fired from the rear forced the rebels to retreat.
Of course, there were smart people in this group of rebels. After being beaten up for a short period of time, they immediately organized a new defense.
For example, the dismantled door panels, other seats, stools, etc., as long as they could prevent arrows, were used by them.
By this time, the effect of arrows was no longer obvious, and close combat became inevitable.
"kill……"
The tight and well-organized army pressed directly against the rebels, and the two sides fought directly.
With weapons and armor at a huge disadvantage, the rebel army suffered heavy casualties for a while, which made the "house masters" who personally supervised the battle feel frightened and anxious.
"Hurry up...if we don't defeat the army, we will only die!"
In order to maintain the fighting spirit of the "army", these noble men can only rely on death threats to their servants and guardians.
It's a pity that in front of a professional army, these improvised teams are inevitably defeated no matter how hard they try.
As the war situation became serious, the rebel troops besieging Jiangxi Dusi had to be withdrawn for support, which greatly reduced the pressure on the defenders in Dusi.
"They evacuated many people. It must be Juan who led the troops into the city!" Hu Lizhen said with a smile.
Although the situation has improved, among everyone present, he was the only one who could still laugh.
"Don't slack off!" Xie Xiaofang said solemnly.
Nearly two hours have passed since the turmoil began, and the elderly Xie Xiaofang is already very tired.
"What you said is absolutely true!" Hu Lizhen nodded.
From the time he led people into Dusi, he was responsible for arranging the specific defense. His performance was indeed perfect, and Xie Xiaofang highly recognized it.
"Kill the thief..."
"kill……"
The shouts of killing in the distance had reached Dusi Yamen. At this moment, Xie Xiaofang was convinced that Huan had indeed returned with his men.
At this moment, he felt much better, at least he no longer had to risk his life here.
Leaning back in the chair, Xie Xiaofang put the knife on the coffee table, looking much more relaxed than before.
Ding Yan then said: "Thanks to the Emperor Hongfu, we finally made it through!"
His words attracted the approval of many officials, but the real hero, Hu Lizhen, was left aside.
The sadness on the officials' faces has disappeared, and they just need to wait for the turmoil to end.
In fact, on the frontal battlefield, Juan had achieved great results.
From the moment they entered the city until now, the troops he led were in a state of pushing forward, and the rebel troops in front were unable to parry them.
In the end, when the officers and soldiers fought hard, no matter how the noble lord supervised the battle, the rebel army in front still collapsed.
"Liu Zhen, send a hundred households to the capital to protect the adults inside!"
"yes!"
"Others, disperse and hunt down the thieves!"
"yes!"
Even if the bandits are dispersed and suppressed, they are actually fought in the streets and alleys with a hundred households as a unit. An army of this size is enough.
After giving these instructions, Huan led the one hundred people assigned to him and hurried to Dusi Yamen.
The main battle is over, and for Juan, it is undoubtedly more valuable to stay in Dusi Yamen.
When he rushed to Dusi Yamen, fighting also broke out at the other three city gates.
Now that the general trend has emerged, the failure of this uprising is doomed. Of course the nobles do not want to die, so they want to escape with their cronies.
Since they wanted to escape, the first step was to leave the city, so they took the initiative to fight out.
Everywhere was dull, and Juan sent five hundred soldiers. They only had to guard one city gate, which was undoubtedly extremely simple for them.
Therefore, the battle that took place at the city gate still unfolded without any suspense.
"Rush out or you will die!"
"Brothers, these are all military achievements, and we must not let any of them go!"
