Chapter 488: The dramatic bombing of the camp, the ridiculous assassination of the king
In the twelfth lunar month of winter, how cold the water in the capital is. No one knows better than the chamberlain who sees the ice on the Yuhe River every day.
No one would have thought that in the Forbidden City, under the Yuhe River, there would be people who could withstand the biting cold, follow the river under the palace wall, and secretly enter the palace.
Liu Xianglian still didn't know how many people were under the water and how many people had already entered the palace, but he would never underestimate the palace's defense power.
Throughout Daxia, the palace was the easiest place to get into trouble, but it was also the safest place.
It is common for the three imperial guards who are responsible for the defense of the palace to commit assassinations. However, as long as the emperor is in the palace and the assassins can fly over the walls, they will not be able to get close to the emperor.
"Head, there is an assassin!"
"Make a fuss, be silent, don't disturb the Holy Master. Go and report to Superintendent Xia and Governor Cao..."
Liu Xianglian raised her hand to stop her subordinates as soon as they exclaimed. A hint of sneer appeared on her stern face, and then she whispered: "In addition, if you meet the Crown Prince of Rongguo or Marquis Yongfeng, remember to follow him. Let them say it. Young people, they underestimate me and the other three royal guards, and dare to assassinate me in the palace on New Year's Eve!"
It's not surprising that Liu Xianglian didn't take the assassins seriously. The three imperial guards were really too strong, let alone Habayashi Lang, who had the ceiling of Daxia's combat power.
assassinate? This is simply a walking military achievement!
Soon, Cao Jiugong, the commander-in-chief of the Zuo Army and the commander of the Long Imperial Guard, came in person.
Liu Xianglian didn't go anywhere, just guarding the key point on the royal road from the three main halls to Daxia Gate. After a while, the nobles in the palace will follow this royal road to Daxia Gate to enjoy the fireworks show tonight with the people.
It was time to close the door and beat the dog. As the general on duty tonight, what he had to do was to protect the Second Saint and all the nobles. As for catching the assassin, he could just leave it to his subordinates.
"Erlang, how's it going?"
Liu Xianglian clasped her fists and replied: "There are twenty-three people who have been found out, and they are hiding in a side hall of the Dragon Head Palace. There is news from Yu Linlang, and he asked the general to keep quiet, and plans to catch turtles in the jar. , The main thing is to see who these people are in the palace."
"It's an expected thing. Without an internal response, how could they be so familiar with the waterways and paths in the palace."
As the "secret chief" of the imperial dynasty, when Cao Jiugong heard that an assassin had sneaked into the imperial city, he not only did not rush to arrest the person, but instead narrowed his eyes, put his hands in his hands, and "lyed" like a big cat on the imperial road. Beside, Liu Xianglian and Liu Xianglian started chatting.
But just because the leader doesn't move doesn't mean that the minions don't move.
At this time, the imperial city had already moved to Daxia Gate under the guidance of Shengjia. The inner city began to form a large net. A three-layer search circle was formed by the soldiers of Habayashi Lang, Long Imperial Guard and the three imperial guards, constantly compressing the assassins. range of activities.
The two saints, the crown prince and the concubines, princes and princesses all went to the Great Xiamen through the imperial road of the three main halls, and hundreds of civil and military officials and their family members also went together.
However, among these people, two did not accompany them. But when the sky was lit up by fireworks, they arrived at the gate of Fengzao Palace.
Jia Cong took off the Yuci dagger that was always hanging on his waist and stuffed it into Daiyu's hand.
"It's unlikely that the assassin will come here, but we still need to pay more attention. I will leave some people outside Fengzao Palace. If anything happens, you can have someone call them."
The little prince had caught wind and cold a few days ago. It was freezing on this day. The little boy was allowed to go to the palace wall to blow the cold wind, so Yuanchun stayed in Fengzao Palace to take care of his son.
When the emperor heard that an assassin had sneaked into the palace, not only was he not angry, but he was full of ridicule.
When the fireworks lit up the night sky, several regular guests of the palace banquet on the tower of Daxia Gate did not show up. Even the British Duke Zhang Yue, who had semi-retired, did not show up.
Some people with sharp eyes and quick minds had doubts in their hearts. The most lively Zhongshun King Liu Ke and Rongguo Gong Jia She were not standing on the tower.
The emperor's goddaughter Princess Wen'an and godson-in-law Jia Cong have not come yet, which is really strange.
……
Outside the capital, there are six guards with a total of 150,000 troops stationed under the capital camp. Even on New Year's Eve, most of them stayed at the military camp, maintaining a semi-alert state.
While the sky above the capital was constantly flashing with bright lights, in a corner of the camp, a dozen people were gathering in a dark room. Under the stimulation of drinks, the whispers at the beginning gradually rose to shouts.
"We work hard on the battlefield, for what? We are not just to find a wife and a wife, and leave a paid official for our children and grandchildren. But now the emperor wants to use us to gain a good reputation for himself, what is this!"
"No, now that I am about to retreat, I originally thought that my evil barrier could attack me. It is not in vain that I have been fighting for more than ten years. Alas, this is all life! Who told me that this Liu is not the same ancestor as other people’s Liu? Those sour scholars have a saying, the Liu family’s wine and meat stink, and dogs will freeze to death on the road!”
"It's because the wine and meat of the Zhumen are stinky, and the roads are freezing to death. Old Liu, you're such a bigot, so don't stop talking."
"This is what my unsatisfied son told me. Look, even you know it's wrong. It shows that he is not good at studying at all. He can't study well, and practicing martial arts is too hard and tiring. What can I do? ? Without his job, what will he do to support himself in the future!"
Bang!
As he became more and more angry, someone in the room suddenly took a swig of wine and smashed the wine jar to the ground.
This dark-faced man with a beard suddenly stood up and cursed, picked up his saber and walked out.
The drinking buddy on the side grabbed him: "Old Hei, what are you doing?"
The black man was obviously a little confused after drinking, and shouted: "Why do they want to take away our officials and the future of our children and grandchildren when they are so popular and drink spicy food? Go to hell with Jiangshan Sheji, go to hell with them." What does the people's livelihood have to do with me, a rough man who can only wield a machete? I don't care, I will fight whoever wants to take away my family's official position. Isn't the emperor enjoying some fireworks? Just in time, I want to go Ask him, we bleed and fight for his country, is this how he treats warriors like me?"
bang bang bang~
If you drink too much, your mind will become confused easily, but your courage will become much stronger.
Almost all of the dozen or so people in the room were filled with dissatisfaction, and they all smashed the wine jars in their hands on the ground.
"Old Hei, I'll go with you! The law doesn't punish everyone, so the emperor must be reasonable, right?"
"Well, I'll go too. I've been away from Shaanxi for so many years, and it's rare to go back even once during the Chinese New Year. I just want to use my life to give my baby a better future..."
After this group of people came out of the house cursing, they shouted and cursed all the way, and soon many people followed behind them.
Before reaching the camp gate, thousands of people had already gathered, making the patrolling Imperial Army think they were blowing up the camp.
The commander on duty personally came out to comfort him, but failed to stop the people who wanted to enter the capital to "reason" with the emperor. Instead, they were dragged outside the camp gate by the crowd.
Just as they were about to stage a scene of "exploding the camp and admonishing the soldiers", they saw several torches not far away, guarding a carriage with lanterns slowly approaching.
The sound of horse hoofbeats struck everyone's restless hearts. As soon as a horse arrived, its bright red cloak rustled.
The cavalryman reined in his horse and stopped in front of the crowd, and the horse's snoring snorted a stream of hot air.
snort!
"The British Lord has been ordered to inspect the capital camp, but you still don't step aside!"
After the carriage stopped, the fire lantern at the shaft door illuminated the carriage.
"The red gold chariot! This is the holy chariot!"
Although there were only a few riders guarding the carriage, the carriage was the emperor's royal chariot, and the people stepping down were even more majestic in their python robes and jade belts.
Zhang Yue, the former deputy commander of the army of the world, Taibao, Zuo Zhuguo, Beijing Camp Jiedushi, and Founding Auxiliary Transport Minister, was standing at the camp gate and glanced coldly at the group of drunken and troublemaking soldiers.
"After drinking some horse urine, you don't know who you are. You don't even know what the national policy is. You dare to cause such a big fuss for me after being provoked..." The British public's prestige in the military is unparalleled. Civil and military personnel, even when Jia Daishan was alive, had to respectfully call him brother.
What's more, most of the generals and lieutenants in the Beijing camp were once soldiers under the old man.
The old man only said half of what he said, and in an instant, they were frightened away from their drunkenness by 70% or 80%. They all turned into quails, bowing their heads and not even having the courage to raise their heads.
Only the commander who was being held hostage squeezed in front of the crowd with messy clothes and almost cried.
"Commander, the last general..."
Before the man could speak, Zhang Yue took the soldier's riding whip and threw it away.
slap~
"Trash, I've lost all my face to you! When did the generals in the Beijing camp lose control of their troops? Get out of here, twenty military sticks!"
Although he was whipped and had to take the initiative to accept military punishment, this man breathed a sigh of relief.
Stay calm, the commander is saving his life!
Zhang Yue ignored the others and only took a step forward. Those who had just clamored to go to the capital to discuss matters with the emperor took a step back.
The old man took another step forward, and everyone took another step back.
At this time, no one dared to step out of the camp anymore...
At the same time, the camps of Shenwu, Shenwei, Zuowuwei and Zuowuwei all welcomed a certain big boss.
The sky above the Forbidden City was constantly lit up by fireworks, while war drums rumbled in various camps outside the city.
Because the military camp was a little slack during the New Year, as if it was about to face a war, all the soldiers who stayed in the camp were gathered together under the drums of the generals.
A man who had ulterior motives and stirred up troubles was found out, and the boss on the general stage ordered the Warm Wine Marching Technique, using iron-blooded means to stabilize the morale of the army in the shortest possible time.
The Pardon Master is more ruthless than the British Master, and his methods are extremely ruthless.
He not only beheaded the commander of the Zuoweiwei army in front of them, but also beheaded twenty-eight generals with more than one hundred households in a row. Then he ordered a group of soldiers and horses, followed the map and followed the clues to attack ten people inside and outside the capital. Yuzuo Mansion.
……
Since the fifth year of Yuanyou, except for occasional minor disturbances in the harem, few fools have challenged Yang Empress's female power.
By the time the Zhen family was imprisoned, the drama of palace fighting had almost disappeared, and the Sixth Palace had a harmonious scene where everyone was good and everyone was good.
But on the last night of Yuanyou's tenth year, the harem, which had been peaceful for a long time, was like a big stone being thrown into the palace. The waves that started as small ripples quickly developed into an earth-shattering tsunami.
A corner of the Dragon Head Palace has been dyed scarlet with blood. Shimazu Kumi, the lord of the Japanese Satsuma clan who had been favored by the emperor for a few days, was currently being surrounded by two strong nuns with his hair disheveled. Mammy dragged it and threw it in front of Jia Cong.
"The Japanese are really like dogs and can't stop eating shit. Do you really think that your ninjutsu can withstand the swords and guns of the Celestial Empire? Tell me, who else was involved in this matter!"
Shimazu Kumi turned out to be the internal agent of this group of assassins, which surprised Jia Cong.
But he was surprised. Jia Cong was not surprised no matter what virtue the Japanese did or what they did.
This kind of childish and stupid assassination is something only Japanese people can think of.
"Despicable and shameless Han people, the words on the covenant are still stained with ink, so you betrayed your allies and killed our people in my hometown..."
Um? Is there something wrong with this person's brain?
When did Daxia form an alliance with the Satsuma clan?
Jia Cong scratched his head and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't remember what treaty the Celestial Empire had signed with the Satsuma Domain.
"Mt. Li... I'll call you Mrs. Li."
Jia Cong asked in confusion: "If I remember correctly, it was your Satsuma clan who went to the Celestial Empire for help, and the Celestial Empire also sold you advanced firearms to give you the strength to fight against the attacks of the northern vassal states. The saint also returned I canonize you as the concubine, making you, the Satsuma clan, an in-law to the Celestial Empire, allowing you to enjoy conveniences that others cannot enjoy..."
"Even when His Highness Prince Jing was investigating the Japanese rebellion, he gave you Satsuma Domain several opportunities. As long as you Shimazu family members are willing to submit to the Celestial Empire, not to mention the title of prince, it is more than enough to grant you a county boy. The people of Satsuma Domain You can also enjoy the treatment of a second-class citizen in China..."
"But what you did today is a great disrespect to the Celestial Empire, a betrayal to the saints and His Majesty, and you are going to punish the nine tribes!"
"I am very curious, who gave you the courage, who gave you the delusion, to think that with these twenty or so rotten fish and shrimps, you could get close to the saint and His Majesty, and assassinate the king for revenge. What kind of imaginary hatred is there?"
Shimazu Kumi became even more crazy after hearing Jia Cong's question. She gnashed her teeth and cursed: "You devil, don't think that I can't hear the news from the outside while I'm in the palace. You Han people kidnapped women from our Japanese country and were treated as The goods are auctioned in public, allowing you Han people to abuse and humiliate you. The poor Japanese women must be living a miserable life with no clothes on their bodies and no food to eat at this time..."
Jia Cong was so noisy that his head hurt. He rubbed his brows and gave the crazy woman a disdainful look.
Was it because of this? This person is stupid!
At this time, the Satsuma Domain had been "ravaged" by Prince Yasu's army.
This God of Killing was ruthless. Not to mention Concubine Li's mother-in-law, even if the old man was gentle when he passed the order, he would understand that leaving a whole body would be considered a sign of mercy on his part, Liu Yi.
Of course, the women of the Satsuma Domain were still very good-looking. The soldiers were very satisfied that their commander took care of the family lineage for them, and they were very satisfied with the Japanese concubines they were given. At the same time, they were even more ruthless with the Japanese men who had always oppressed Japanese women.
Jia Cong knew these things, but he did not think that being kind during the war was a good thing. On the contrary, being cruel was more in line with the interests of the dynasty.
"Who told you that the Japanese women who came to heaven had a hard time? Forget it, even if I say a word to a brainless person like you, my IQ will be insulted! Come on, drag me down and wait for the saint to be punished!"
Those Japanese girls who came to heaven would like to bring their mothers and sisters who are still in their hometown. They will have sweet and delicious meals every day, warm and thick clothes, and a happy life.
I remember that at the beginning, they could not even get a meal in Japan, and they easily became the abandoned sons of Japanese men...
The Celestial Dynasty rescued the Japanese girl. I wish the king could quickly conquer the Japanese country and let the poor women of the Japanese country bathe in the grace of the Holy Emperor!
Jia Cong heard this with his own ears from a poor Japanese girl.
Jia Cong was too lazy to talk nonsense to the already crazy Japanese concubine, so he finished his sentence and was about to turn around and leave.
But Shimazu Kumi didn't believe these words. When she saw that Jia Cong ignored her, she screamed even more crazily.
"Jia Cong, I know that everything is because of you. You have hated us Japanese from the beginning!"
"So, even if I can't kill the devilish father and son of the Liu family, I still want to make you feel the pain of losing a loved one!"
"Hahahahaha, don't even think about getting a clue from me, just wait, your Jia family can hang white flags tomorrow!"
