The officer glanced at Huang Zhen and said, "The troops and horses in the outer city are just like before. They are not on alert. The people arranged in Qianhusuo are ready to seize military power at any time."
Huang Zhen's face finally flashed with excitement. The three thousand-household residences in the city had been planned by the Mingjiao for a long time. From the top to the ordinary soldiers, they were all members of the Mingjiao. And the thousand-household residences in the outer city were all members of the Mingjiao.
Although the household location is not completely controlled, it has been penetrated.[]
At that time, the inner city will break out together, and the friends in the outer city will fight for military power at the same time. They will cooperate with each other from inside and outside, and surprise Caosi's army and horses. After burning the grain, they will send people to scuttle the boats on the river and block the river. At that time, they will lead people
Entering the Taihang Mountains, where the Mingjiao has already stored a lot of food, it can be used as a temporary residence.
And once something happens in Beitongzhou, the world will be shaken, and there will inevitably be a shortage of food in the north. The Ming Dynasty will be in dire straits, so how can they have the energy to go to Taihang to suppress the bandits? And they only need to wait for a good time, and when there is turmoil in the world, they can even go to Taihang.
, take it directly to Gyeonggi Province.
All these plans... seemed to be impeccable, but Huang Zhen knew that things would not be as simple as imagined. However, the arrow was already on the string and he had to make a move. What he had to do was to try his best not to leave any mistakes or omissions.
"Is there any movement at Zhang Ru's side at the Dongchang stall?"
Huang Zhen tried his best to look calm and calm, and asked the guard.
"Sir, Zhang Ru seems to be aware of it, but the protector already has an idea to attract his attention."
"Oh? What can I do?"
"Assassinate the guarding eunuch!"
Huang Zhen understood that the relationship between the guarding eunuch and Dongchang had always been very close. After all, we were all members of the palace. Once something happened to the guarding eunuch, Zhang Ru had to ignore it and assassinate the guarding eunuch. No matter what, Zhang Ru would
You also have to draw attention to it.
Build the plank road openly and cross the Chen Cang secretly!
"Where is the Jinyi Guard's Thousand Households Office? What's going on with the Jinyi Guard's Thousand Households Office?"
"There is something strange at the Jinyiwei Qianhu Station. Liu Chengfeng suddenly closed the door to thank guests and saw no one. However, the prefect Zhou Tai occasionally went to visit him. The school captain below was much more diligent and arrested people everywhere.
"Rebellious party" but don't worry, sir, our people have not been captured by them."
A hint of coldness flashed across Huang Zhen's eyes, and he said: "This Liu Chengfeng, if he wants people to stare at him outside Qianhusuo, he will definitely take action."
"Sir, we have been keeping watch for twelve hours, but Liu Chengfeng has never come out. Wang Tao, on the other hand, has been very active recently. He seems to be obeying Liu Chengfeng's order and is tinkering with something. Brothers have already
They kept an eye on him, and once, he went to Caosi."
Huang Zhen asked nervously: "What is he doing in Caosi?"
"We also have people from Caosi. They say they were ordered by Liu Chengfeng to ask Caosi to be extra careful and not to be careless."
Huang Zhen couldn't help but sneer: "So, Liu Chengfeng also discovered that our target is Caosi?"
The officer also laughed: "It's a pity that even if he wanted to stop him, he probably wouldn't have the strength. It is said that at the magistrate's office, Zhou Tai has been worried recently and is always asking for prescriptions for treating diseases. It seems that Liu Chengfeng has contracted something.
Typhoid fever.”
Huang Zhen said: "Are you serious?"
The officer said: "The nervous look on Zhou Tai's face doesn't look like he's faking it."
Huang Zhen nodded his head and couldn't help but laugh: "God is really helping me. In this case, let's make an appointment tomorrow and night to do it together. I will send out the order to mobilize the troops tomorrow evening."
The officer glanced at Huang Zhen with a smile and said, "Then I'll take my leave."
Early in the morning of the next day, one after another, the canal boats were still docking. The Caosi people were carrying grain into the warehouse. For several days in a row, the grain was piled up like mountains. The security in Beitongzhou was obviously much tighter. Groups of soldiers
, under the banner of strictly guarding against chaos, appeared in the streets and alleys, and the air suddenly became tense.
Of course, you have to be careful when there is a rebel party. It is said that the goal of the rebel party this time is to collect grain, so not only the Caosi Department is nervous, but also the troops are not daring to be careless. It is only natural to send troops and horses to occupy important streets in the city.
thing.
It was late at night, the spring rain was like silk, and the night wind rustled the reeds outside the pier.
A campfire is slowly lighting up. Compared with the Qianhu Station in Songzhuang stationed in the outer city and the Qianhu Station in the inner city, there is a huge difference. Because so many people only need to defend one ferry, it is very easy.
There was no drill during the day, and at night, most of the officers and soldiers in the entire barracks
They had gone to bed early, and even the thousand households of Zhuhai had gone to bed. There was silence outside the big tent, and the rain fell, turning the land into mud. In the mud, someone stepped on the muddy water with their boots, one by one.
There was a sound, and the guards guarding outside the big tent shouted: "Who is it?"
"Please inform Mr. Qianhu immediately. There is a military order from the Military Preparation Road. The situation is urgent and you need to see Mr. Qianhu immediately."
The soldier was silent. Someone brought a lantern. The man took out the seal of Bing Beidao and showed it to the soldier. The soldier nodded and said: "Wait a moment, I will wake up Mr. Qianhu."
Then the lights came on in the big tent, and Zhu Haide stepped on his shoes and yawned. At this time, the soldiers suddenly came out with military orders. He didn't dare to complain. After all, the wind was blowing hard these days, and it might have happened.
What's the big deal?
Not necessarily, I was sitting in the big tent, and then someone came in. This man was wearing the clothes of the military governor's office. He saluted Zhu Haide and said: "Sir, according to the order of the inspector, please hurry up and order the troops.
Go and quell the rebellion."
"Rebellion is good." Zhu Haide suddenly woke up from his drowsiness, woke up, and said with a solemn face: "Bring me the military order.
The visitor took something directly and showed it to him. Zhu Haide took it and looked at it for a while. His face under the oil lamp changed instantly.
The meaning is very clear. The Jinyiwei rebelled. After Zhu Haide received the order, he immediately dispatched troops to the city to suppress it. There must be no mistake.
Jinyiwei...
If someone else said they were rebelling, Zhu Haide might still believe it, but what are the Jinyiwei? Why did they rebel? This military order is really unbelievable, but it happens that it is indeed stamped with the seal of the Inspector. Even Zhu Haide can recognize the text of this military order.
, it was obviously written by the Inspector himself, and there would be no fraud.
What happened
Zhu Haide was also panicked all of a sudden. Bing Bei Dao mobilized troops to suppress Jin Yiwei. This was really unprecedented. Jin Yi Wei was the Emperor's personal disciple. How could he possibly conspire against him? Bing Bei Dao must have made a mistake, but Bing Bei Dao was not a fool either. They
What are the benefits to them?
"God, the situation is urgent. Just in case, to allow the rebels to escape, please act as ordered immediately."
The visitor saw Zhu Haide showing hesitation and said quickly.
Zhu Haide's face was sullen, and he was confused for a moment. He was not an indecisive person, but this matter was really weird, which put him in a dilemma. After looking at the officer, Zhu Haide said calmly: "Don't be anxious first, always be careful.
It's just a matter of communicating with every household, please wait for a while."
After saying that, Zhu Haide immediately called for the officers in the guard station. In a short time, seven or eight hundred households had already arrived. Although the Qianhu Station was called Qianhu, according to the establishment, there should be ten people from one hundred households.
There are 1,100 officers and soldiers, but the rules are rules, and there are only eight real hundred households. As for the officers and soldiers, they add up to only more than 700 people.
When Zhu Haide saw the officers gathered together, he directly conveyed the general's order to them. Hundreds of households circulated it one by one. Some were calm and composed, while others looked surprised.
Zhu Haide said: "This military order is a bit strange, but according to the rules, we should indeed obey the orders of Bingbeidao. I just want to ask everyone what you mean."
Zhu Haide really did not dare to make his own opinions. This was no joke. Suppressing the Emperor's own troops was almost tantamount to treason. Not obeying the orders of the military preparation road was also suspected of disobedience. No matter what decision he made, it was a serious crime.
A sullen and lazy Baihu said: "Sir, the military order is like a mountain. Since the military preparation road has issued a military order, Qianhu should naturally abide by it. Please send the order immediately, gather people and horses, and enter the city immediately to clear out the Jinyi Guards.
"
Zhu Haide's expression suddenly changed, and he glared at the hundred households and said, "How could the Jinyiwei rebel? What's the benefit of scheming against them? Wang Liuzi, you have been following me for many years, don't you know the importance? This is very strange...
"
In the past, when Zhu Haide reprimanded him like this, Wang Liuzi would have been afraid to say anything. But today, this man named Wang Liuzi said, "Sir, are you going to disobey me?"
As soon as Wang Liuzi finished speaking, two Qianhu sneered: "The military law of the Ming Dynasty: those who disobey orders can be dealt with in front of the battle. Lord Qianhu, this is an order from the Army Bei Dao. It is written in white and black. There is no forgery.
Now the military order says that Jin Yiwei is a rebel party, and Jin Yiwei is a rebel party!"
The three hundred households expressed their stance without hesitation and their attitude was firm. Zhu Haide had to make up his mind. As for the other hundred households, they all looked hesitant and did not know what to do for the moment.
Zhu Haide's expression had changed. Wang Liuzi and others had always treated him as his own boss. Unexpectedly, today, they would not be polite to him at all. He couldn't help but said angrily: "What do I do? I won't tolerate you forcing each other. No."
Respecting military orders is disobedience, but suppressing the imperial guards is treason!"
Wang Liuzi and the other two hundred households looked at each other, with a hint of murderous intent in their eyes. Wang Liuzi said fiercely: "Do you really mean to disobey me?"
As soon as Zhu Haide woke up, he suddenly realized that many things had been turned upside down. A strange military order, and then even several of his usual confidants changed their faces. He couldn't help but became furious and said: "Wang Liuzi, you are too presumptuous."
Yes, I will allow you to question me. Come and come and come..."
The pro-troops rushed in and looked at Zhu Haide.
But Wang Liuzi smiled and said: "Since the adults are stubborn and refuse to understand, I have no choice but to be rude."
