Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Page 538

At the same time, a fast horse entered Zhili, and the horse's hooves stepped on the ground in Beizhili, rumbling.

The knight on this fast horse is wearing a mandarin duck war jacket from a soldier of the Ming Dynasty, with a few small flags stuck on his back, and a sealed bamboo tube hanging from his waist.

The knight's eyes were red and his face was sleepy. It looked like he hadn't had a good rest for several days.

This soldier came from Shaanxi, because Luoyang was occupied by Zhao Wen, so he had to spare a large circle.

At the same time, Zhao Wen also received a military report from Zhao Daniu.

Zhao Wen rode on the horse, looked at the military newspaper in his hand, and laughed loudly, "Tongguan has been taken, and we are heading towards Weinan Mansion. Not bad, not bad. After taking Tongguan, I can gallop eight hundred miles away from Qinchuan!" Take Guanzhong, and the territory in the northwest is under control."

This military newspaper was sent by Zhao Daniu who had already broken through Tongguan.

Zhao Daniu divided his troops from the north of Zhao Wen and the Yellow River defense line. In addition, to go to Tongguan, he had to cross half of the Shanxi border, so the speed was much slower.

Zhao Wen put away the military newspaper in his hand, and looked at Li Xiaosan, "Send the order, speed up, Zhao Daniu has already conquered Tongguan, and we must take Kaifeng Mansion as soon as possible."

"Obey!" Li Xiaosan shouted, passing on Zhao Wen's order.

The army marched on the border of Henan Mansion, moving towards Kaifeng Mansion constantly.

Song Hu led the soldiers and horses under his command and galloped non-stop in front of Zhao Wen, clearing away the obstacles for Zhao Wen's army to advance.

As the sky gradually darkened, Zhao Wen also stopped the army and began to set up camp on the spot.

When the sun completely set on the horizon, the capital suddenly became windy.

The wind was so strong that the whistle blew loudly.

As the saying goes, when the moon is dark and the night is dark, when the wind is high and the fire is set.

Outside the homes of Duke Ying, Duke Cheng and others, footsteps suddenly sounded.

Because of the howling wind, the footsteps were blown away as soon as they sounded.

Finally, the men stopped in the darkness, a hundred distances from the British government.

Outside the gate of the British government, the lantern hanging above the gate was constantly shaken by the strong wind, and the candlelight inside kept flickering, and it was about to go out.

"Why is there a sudden strong wind here? It's so evil!"

A guard standing at the door looked at the guard next to him and complained.

"It's really unlucky for us. The wind suddenly blows up when everything is going well. And we are still on duty tonight, what a bad luck!" The guard also complained.

"All right, all right, let's hide under the gatehouse. The wind is too strong!"

The captain of the guard complained, and then took the guards to hide under the gatehouse.

Fortunately, there were not many guards outside the gate, only five or six, otherwise they really wouldn't be able to hide.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the lantern hanging above the gate suddenly went dark, and the gatehouse was plunged into darkness.

A group of soldiers and horses ambushing in the distance of the British government saw this posture and immediately moved.

The commander of this army looked ahead and shouted: "Go!"

As soon as the voice fell, a team of 80 to [-] people drew out their waist knives and rushed forward in the dark.

Around them, there are five or six other teams of the same kind.Like them, these teams drew their knives and headed towards the British government.

At the back door of the British government, there are several similar teams.

The few guards hiding under the porter looked at the extinguished lantern above their heads and sighed.

"It's unlucky, the lantern went out." The guard commander complained.

"What's the sound?" At this moment, a guard suddenly pricked up his ears, with a serious expression on his face.

The guard commander looked at him and asked, "What's going on? What did you hear?"

"I seem to hear footsteps, and there are quite a few of them." The guard said hastily.

When the commander of the guards heard this, he also listened intently.

Indistinctly, under the sound of the wind, footsteps were indeed heard.

As these soldiers and horses approached, the footsteps became louder and louder.

"There are really footsteps, and they are getting louder. What's going on?" The guard commander walked out of the gatehouse with a puzzled expression and looked around.

Today's moon is half covered by dark clouds, so the moonlight is very poor, and you can only see a little distance.

The guard commander looked in the direction of the sound, his eyes narrowed tightly.

As the footsteps grew louder, a black wall appeared in the guard's field of vision.

Although the wind was strong, the sound could not travel very far, but as the distance between the two continued to approach, the footsteps became louder and louder.

"This is... a person?" Although the commander of the guards didn't see clearly what appeared in front of him, he could guess it.

"This is a person, no, there are thieves!" Although the commander of the guards didn't know why there were thieves coming here in the middle of the night, there was absolutely nothing good about it.

The footsteps were so loud, although I couldn't see how many people were in front of me, but there were definitely quite a few.

With so many people suddenly appearing here, the commander of the guards really couldn't think of any other reason.

"There are thieves!" The guard commander shouted, and hurried back.

At this moment, more than a dozen arrows flew out and flew towards the chest of the commander of the guards.

Although in the strong wind, the arrow's hit rate was very poor, but under the advantage of numbers, two arrows were inserted into the chest of the guard leader.

At this time, the distance between the two was less than thirty steps.

The bandit commander only felt a chill on his back, followed by a sharp pain.

"There are thieves!" The leader of the thieves hurriedly shouted, and his body began to stagger.

"kill!"

A low shout came, and the speed of the soldiers and horses increased instantly.

The guard hiding in the gatehouse heard the voice of the bandit leader and hurried out to check.

As soon as they came out, they saw a large number of people behind the leader of the bandits.

These men and horses hold steel knives, reflecting the moonlight which is not too bright.

Seeing this, no matter how stupid these guards are, they can understand what happened.

"There are thieves!" A guard yelled, and then rushed to the gate of the British government.

Just a few steps away, dense arrows flew over.

"Kill it!" A soldier who looked like a commander brandished a knife in his hand and killed the guards.

In an instant, countless steel knives landed on the backs of these guards.

After a while, all the guards outside the British Government House fell to the ground.

The soldiers and horses who hunted and killed the Duke of England came to the gate of the Duke of England. They looked at the gate of the Duke of England and the walls near the gate, then took out the hook lock and threw it on the wall of the Duke of England.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and the wind was getting stronger.

That night, the people who lived near the British government's Chengguo's mansion heard the sound of killing and screams mixed with the sound of the wind.

When the sun rose, there were blood and dead bodies everywhere in the British and Chengguo mansions, as well as those honorable mansions who wanted to take refuge in Zhao Wen.

As soon as the day dawned, the matter could not be concealed, and the news spread rapidly in the capital.

Officials in the city who knew the news hurried to the palace, wanting to meet Chongzhen.

It happened so suddenly that I didn't get any news before the sudden arrival.

These officials in the city were afraid that they would be involved, and basically all gathered outside the gate of the palace.

But this time, Chongzhen avoided seeing him.

British Duke Cheng Guogong and the others were imprisoned in Zhao Prison, and the Jinyi Weidong Factory also entered their mansion and searched their property.

Chapter 621 Bandit Zhao, You and I Are Incompatible

At this time, the British Duke was imprisoned in a cell in Zhao Prison. He was in shackles, and he kept yelling in the cell, "I am the British Duke, the British Duke bestowed by Emperor Chengzu. What do you want to do?"

There is only the British Duke in the cell of the British Duke. Because of his special status, the British Duke and his family members were separated when they were detained.

There were more than a dozen Jinyiwei school lieutenants standing outside the viewing room where the British government was located. They stood here quietly, allowing the British government to swear in the cell.

"Why do you arrest the old man? The old man wants to meet His Majesty, you people who don't know good and bad, this old man wants to meet His Majesty, you people who don't know good and bad.

When His Majesty ascended the throne, the old man put in a lot of effort, how dare you arrest the old man like this? "

The British Duke was lying on the pillar of the cell, yelling non-stop.

At this time, how can the British Duke still look like the British Duke?The clothes on his body were still pajamas, and the British man was directly grabbed from the bed last night.

There were still some dried bloodstains on the pajamas, and these bloodstains coagulated together, exuding a foul smell.

These bloodstains are not from the British government, but belonged to the guards in the British government.

At this moment, Gao Qiqian walked over slowly and came to the British Duke.

"You stray dog, what do you want to do? Wei Zhongxian was so rampant back then that he didn't dare to touch this old man, but you are so capable that you dared to touch this old man. Do you know the consequences of touching this old man? You know that when His Majesty ascends the throne today, How much effort did the old man put in? You dare to catch the old man, are you looking for death? The old man wants to see His Majesty, the old man wants to see His Majesty." The British Duke looked at Gao Qiqian standing in front of the cell, and kept yelling and cursing .

The Duke of England has never been in Zhao Prison at such an age. Wei Zhongxian was so rampant back then that he didn't pay attention to the officials of the world, but when facing the Duke of England, he had to show some face.

Wei Zhongxian, who was so rampant back then, wanted to give the British Duke some face. The British Duke really couldn't understand, how dare he dare to touch himself now that he is a small high rise.

Gao Qiqian sneered, "Hehe, I'll call you British Duke for your face, and call you pig and dog for not giving you face, and you have to follow suit.

Do you still think you are the high-ranking British prince from before?Stop dreaming, you are now a prisoner, stop struggling.

Let me tell you the truth, it is not our family who wants to arrest you, but His Majesty who wants to arrest you.You've got something wrong, and you'll be alive in a few days. "

The British Duke's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Gao Qiqian and hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

The British official vaguely felt that Gao Qiqian should talk about his surrender to Zhao Wen, but the people he sent to Xuanzhen have not returned yet.

These people are all confidantes of his subordinates, and it is impossible to betray him.

The British public really didn't want to believe that Gao Qiqian knew about it.

"Hehe!" Gao Qiqian squinted his eyes and sneered, "I don't understand? I really don't understand whether you are pretending to be stupid or really stupid. The matter of you and Cheng Guogong and some nobles secretly surrendering to Zhao Wen has been covered by the emperor. Got it, do you think the emperor can spare you? Don't think about it, how could the emperor spare you?

Now Bandit Zhao is very powerful and has the potential to sweep the world. It's ridiculous that you don't want to serve the country, but you still want to surrender to Bandit Zhao. "

"I didn't!" The British Duke became flustered in an instant, Gao Qiqian said this, and the British Duke already understood what happened.

But at this time, it is absolutely impossible to admit it. If you admit it, there is really only a dead end.

What's more, his confidants in the Beijing camp have already left Beijing with soldiers and horses.

Thinking of this, the British Duke suddenly froze.

"No wonder the people from the Beijing battalion are being transferred out of Beijing. It turns out that they already knew about it." The British princess kept thinking in his heart.

"I didn't, I didn't surrender to Thief Zhao, I can't understand what you are talking about." The British officer pretended to be stupid and said in a daze.

At this time, the British Duke can only pretend to be stupid, because he understands that once he admits to this matter, he is afraid that he will die, and the British Duke's line will be finished in his own hands.

"I don't care whether you surrendered to Bandit Zhao or not, and it doesn't matter if you say it. Wait for the disposal. By the way, you can't stay here for long. Enjoy the last moment."

Gao Qiqian dropped a word, and walked out of Zhao Prison without looking back.

Gao Qiqian walked out of Zhao Prison and headed towards the imperial study where Chongzhen was.

"My lord, the lineage of the Duke of England and the lineage of the Duke of the State and those nobles who surrendered to Zhao Wen have all been arrested and brought to justice." Gao Qiqian came to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen glanced at Gao Qiqian, "Nowadays there are a large number of civil and military officials gathered outside the palace gate, and I don't know if any of them colluded with the British Prime Minister.

If these officials were instigated by some people with ulterior motives, it would not be so easy to convict the British public of their crimes based on the evidence in hand.

Therefore, I decided to declare the crimes of the British public and others first. Chen Xinjia bears my will to seek peace, and we cannot let him go out and speak out, otherwise the matter of peace will be leaked.

You think of a way to get Chen Xinjia out of it, and then take out the testimony in your hand.By the way, all those things found in the British government were released.

By the way, before doing these things, first let the Duke of England commit suicide in fear of crime. I believe you should be able to do this. "

Chongzhen looked at Gao Qiqian coldly, his face was full of fierceness.

Chongzhen is not an idiot. A dignitary like the British Duke who has been passed down in the capital for hundreds of years and has an intricate network of connections should cut through the mess quickly and send these people to see their father as quickly as possible.
