The person leading the troops outside the city turned out to be Duhan's son-in-law Bede.
At that time, the fight between Li Zhen and Bede caused a stir in Beijing. However, after the fight, Li Zhen was unharmed, but Bede was almost killed by Xianfeng. Fortunately, Bede's fat wife, Du Shi, begged for mercy and was saved. Du Han sacrificed his face to plead with Xianfeng, and finally saved Bede's life.
However, Bede's life was saved, but his official career was completely cut off and he could no longer be an official. Bede stayed at home all the time, and Du Shi also gave birth to a child, so Bede took the child and wandered around from time to time. The dogs and cockfights seemed to have returned to their dandy ways, as if they had forgotten their hatred for Li Zhen.
Bede acted like this on the surface, but in his heart he was always thinking about revenge. He was humiliated repeatedly by Li Zhen and almost died because of Li Zhen. Such hatred is impossible to forget. When Yi found him, he gave Bede a chance to commit suicide. Therefore, Bede secretly took refuge in Yi and helped Yi in his work.
Bede had always been worried, fearing that his surrender to Prince Gong would be exposed.
At this time, he felt extremely happy.
He can finally get his revenge!
A cheerful expression appeared on Bede's face, and he yelled: "Little Li Zhen, today, I will let you die without a burial place. After you die, I will whip your corpse and chop up the remaining corpses." Break it into pieces and throw it into the wilderness to feed the dogs. It will make you uneasy even after death, and make you uneasy in all your life. Hahaha... I didn’t expect it. I didn’t expect that I, Bede, would be where I am today. By the heavens, I, Bede, would be like this. It was indeed right to follow the Sixth Prince, and today I can finally avenge my shame."
A sense of pleasure spread throughout Bede's body.
Cixi frowned and shouted coldly: "Bede, you know what you are doing. Your father-in-law Du Han was the auxiliary minister of the dynasty and assisted the emperor. But now you are helping the Yin rebels to rebel. You If you immediately step back from the brink and turn around to deal with Yi, the Ai family will not only not hold you accountable, but they will also give you a promotion."
"Oh, I want to be promoted to a higher rank."
Bede looked disdainful and sneered: "Empress Dowager, are you going to kill Li Zhen? Hehe, Li Zhen and I have sworn to be incompatible. If you want to recruit me, you must kill Li Zhen. This is the only condition Can you satisfy me?"
"Asshole!"
Seeing Bede's expression, Ci'an immediately became angry.
Cixi also said: "You are looking for death."
Bede's face fell when he saw the two women taking Li Zhen's side.
He pointed at Ci'an and Cixi and said in a deep voice: "Two queen mothers, you are still young, and you are still as young as flowers. Especially if you are beautiful and fragrant, and you have a baby with you, if there is something wrong with you, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it." Well, especially if it falls into the hands of soldiers in the army, life would be worse than death."
After a pause, Bede continued: "If you kill Li Zhen, I promise not to kill the two queen mothers, and ensure their safety. I will also take the two queen mothers to see the Sixth Prince. I believe that the Sixth Prince will definitely kill you." Those who have offered you money will not do anything to you, you two, think about it carefully."
"Don't even think about it!
Cixi looked at Li Zhen and said, "Master Li, please kill this rebellious minister and traitor!"
Li Zhen said: "Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely kill this thief."
"Shameless talk!"
Surrounded by soldiers, Bede no longer wanted to be in a relationship with Li Zhen. Now he had shown his strength in front of Li Zhen and had the upper hand.
This feeling is very good.
Bede's thug waved his hand and shouted: "Kill, whoever can kill Li Zhen will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold."
After giving the order, Bede's army immediately launched a charge.
Zhang Zhiping, however, was not to be outdone and shouted with all his strength: "Brothers, we fought bloody battles to break out of Bauhinia City. Now this is the last hurdle. As long as we defeat the soldiers outside the city, we can break out. Kill with me, kill with me." Kill the thief."
More than a thousand soldiers followed Zhang Zhiping and launched a charge, blocking the charge of Bede's soldiers.
Li Zhen seized the opportunity and organized Cixi, Ci'an and others to evacuate.
If we don’t withdraw now, when Prince Gong and his army catch up, I’m afraid there will be no chance to leave. The group avoided the battlefield and ran out of the city. When Bede saw Li Zhen trying to escape, he immediately became anxious. , he led his troops to block the outside just to capture Li Zhen.
If Li Zhen escapes, what dignity will he have?
Beide reined in his horse, turned its head, and shouted: "Zheng Xuan, Cao Dapeng, chase Li Zhen immediately."
After finishing speaking, Bede and his men rushed forward and went straight to Li Zhen, quickly blocking the path of Li Zhen and his party. When Li Zhen saw Bede and his soldiers rushing towards him, he looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yang, Mr. Dong, you escort the two empress dowagers and the emperor and retreat slowly while I deal with Bede."
He stopped, and so did nearly fifty people from the Sharp Blade Battalion.
Long Ao stood next to Li Zhen and said: "Commander, I will go and deal with this Bede to prevent him from becoming arrogant."
Li Zhen nodded and said seriously: "It's difficult for one person to get in, and there are people around Bede. Look at the two burly men next to Bede. Even if they can't defeat you, they can hold you back, and Bede can also run away immediately. Now, if you go up with a knife, the main purpose is to kill these two people and disrupt the guards guarding Bede. As long as they reveal their gap, I will have a chance to shoot and kill this guy."
Long Ao nodded and walked forward with the Daguan Dao in his hand.
The soldiers of the Jiandao Battalion also drew their steel knives and rushed out. Nearly fifty people charged at the same time, with a momentum like a tiger.
Long Ao charged with the Daguan Dao, and in the blink of an eye he had entered Bede's army. The Daguan Dao seemed to come to life, turning into a murderous weapon and reaping the lives of soldiers everywhere. , all the soldiers he encountered were beheaded. In a short time, Long Ao had killed nearly ten soldiers. His body was also stained with blood, as if he was a bloody man.
When Bede saw this, he immediately became angry.
This person is so arrogant!
Bede shouted: "Zheng Xuan, go and capture that guy. I will personally ask for credit for you."
"The general will obey your orders!"
Zheng Xuan agreed with a roar, slapped the horse on the back, and rushed out with a big knife. Long Ao saw Zheng Xuan rushing out, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He continued to rush forward with a big sword, when Zheng Xuan's horse collided with it. , Long Ao squatted down suddenly, but the Daguan Dao in his hand was slashed sideways without losing momentum.
"Puch!!"
The blade touched the hoof of the war horse, and with a click, the hoof broke.
"Herod!"
The war horse fell to the ground and neighed in grief.
Zheng Xuan also landed from his horse, but the moment he landed, he saw the Daguandao falling. Under the light of the fire, this Daguandao seemed to be a magic weapon falling from the sky, exuding endless murderous aura, which made Zheng Xuan Feeling horrified, he rolled around without hesitation and hurriedly rolled away. However, as soon as he rolled away, he felt a pain in his waist.
But it was Long Ao's Daguan knife that fell on Zheng Xuan's waist, cutting Zheng Xuan into two pieces.
Long Ao killed Zheng Xuan and looked up at Cao Dapeng with cold eyes.
