[Ming] Wuzong's Chronicle of Rebirth

The setting sun was like blood, and the city wall of Beijing stood majestically in front of Zhu Youzhao.There is the world's first-class wealth and power here, and countless people want to rush into this cage, even if they know it is a cage for swallowing people, they don't care, just like him Zhu Youzhu.Here is the deadliest and most seductive attraction in the world.

"My lord, when shall we do it?"

Zhu Youzhao glanced at the Xishan garrison who stood behind him, complaining of suffering and tiredness, and held back his throbbing veins: "Wait a little longer, wait for them to slow down." He didn't want to take these people with him, but he only had to take these people with him. People, with these old eunuchs, he can open the city gate, rush to Beijing, capture the Forbidden City, and take the most honorable position in the world.

He glanced at the soldiers standing beside him, and smiled with relief. In the end, he had to rely on his own soldiers.Fortunately, he spent [-] taels of silver to transport them to the capital.

The little eunuch next to him quickly brought a clean water bag, and before Zhu Youzhao took a sip, an old eunuch walked over tremblingly and said, "My lord, why are you not marching ahead?"

Zhu Youzhu put down the kettle and said patiently: "It's not completely dark yet. There are so many of us, it's inevitable that some traces will be exposed, and it's not good to startle the snake. I'm waiting for the sky to be dark and rush in." , this time is the quietest, and it will not disturb anyone." Zhu Youzhu thought that he had used up his greatest patience.After saying this, he turned his head to drink water and ignored the old eunuch.

The old eunuch rode the horse for a while today, and his body couldn't help jolting. He pretended not to see Zhu Youzhao's impatience, and said with a smile: "My lord, I don't know. Now there are four shifts in the imperial city. The miscellaneous family specially asked us to The person in charge has changed his post this afternoon. If the prince doesn't leave, the other miscellaneous families won't care when the bell in the capital rings."

Don't talk about such an important matter sooner rather than later, but now, Zhu Youzhu barely crushed the kettle in his hand.

Enduring it with all his strength, Zhu Youzhao smiled and said, "In that case, let's go. Stop at the small woods outside the city, wait for the father-in-law to open the door, and we..."

"It's natural, it's natural." The old eunuch said goodbye with a smile.In the secluded place at the back, the old eunuch heard his apprentice complain: "This King Xing doesn't think much of us. He obviously begged us. If he didn't have us, would he be able to succeed? See His appearance...Master, after this is done, he may decide what to do to us."

The old eunuch patted his apprentice on the shoulder, pointed at the eunuchs resting opposite him and said with a smile: "You think these people are vegetarians. King Xing is begging us now, so why not we are begging him. He is a traitor, but There are three thousand soldiers and horses around him. When the matter is over, which one of him, the princes and grandchildren in the clan, will not do. We will naturally have our reasons." The old eunuch made a decapitation gesture, his apprentice understood Yes, covered his mouth and smiled without speaking.

Zhu Houwei lay on the city wall and looked at their team motionless with binoculars, and said to Zhu Houzhao, "Brother Huang, why don't you say they don't come? Didn't you say that they only take this shift?"

Zhu Houzhao rubbed the gun in his hand with sandpaper, and said with a smile: "It's not easy for him. Although Xishan's soldiers are old and weak, they may not be so easy to entangle."

Seeing that his royal brother treasures this gun so much, Zhu Houwei also sat down next to Zhu Houzhao, touched it and said with a smile: "Why is this gun so precious to your royal brother? Does it have any special origin?"

"This is your brother Du Ruo's gun." Zhu Houzhao caressed the sound of the gun carefully, as if Du Ruo was by his side.He will have a fight today, but he doesn't know what will happen to Du Ruo in Jiangxi.

Now Zhu Houwei understands why Zhu Houzhao cherishes this gun.He is also aware of the relationship between his royal brother and Du Ruo, and also vaguely knows the high hopes that his royal brother has for him.So he strictly demanded himself, and only hoped that he would not disappoint Brother Huang.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, they are starting."

Zhu Houzhao turned over and lay down on the city wall, and saw through the binoculars that the pair of men and horses really started to move towards this direction.Zhu Houzhao ordered: "Just do as you said before. When they get close, blow the trumpet and let Liu Jian and the others flank from behind, and we will besiege the urn and catch the turtle."

The young general has to go.Zhu Houzhao pulled Zhu Houwei over and told him: "When the time comes, you stay here and don't move. You don't really want to see what it's like to fight with firearms, so just stay here and watch this time."

"Brother Huang, do you want to go to battle in person?" Zhu Houwei held Zhu Houzhao back and asked worriedly. "If you go to my brother, I will go too."

Zhu Houzhao put the gun into Zhu Houwei's hand, and comforted him: "You take this gun. You have learned how to shoot a gun. Then just follow them and aim down. If you get a few shots right, it's fine. It's meritorious service. If you go down, I will be distracted instead, so stay here obediently."

Knowing that he was not in a good mood, Zhu Houwei obediently carried the gun on his back, nodded and said, "I will definitely help elder brother shoot and kill as many rebels as possible. I will also protect brother Du Ruo's gun. "

Zhu Houzhao smiled at him, turned and left.Zhu Houwei leaned back on the wall again, and under the guidance of the guards, put the gun straight.Just waiting for Zhu Youzhao to come over.

Wanting to subvert the government is not good for the emperor's brother. For him, Zhu Houwei, there is only one word, kill!

After waiting for a long time, Zhu Youzhao and his mob stopped at the right place.

Only two horsemen rushed in from the outside, seeing that the inside was under martial law, they hurriedly reined in their horses, but saw a small official waving at them.After hesitating for a while, they leaned over.

"It's from Xishan!"

The two did not speak.

"Waiting to enter the city, right? I belong to my father-in-law."

The two of them didn't expect to contact the Master so soon, and whispered to the secret code: "Stay until September [-]th."

"The head is full of chrysanthemums." The guard didn't expect the two people to believe him so easily, and he was secretly happy. "I just received the news in the palace that the whole city is under martial law, and now my father-in-law is still upstairs!" The guard pointed to the tall tower, and continued to whisper: "It's been so hard for you, so hurry up. I heard that the palace is in chaos. I have to hurry home and have a look."

The two wanted to ask for evidence again, but they were driven away by him. "Hurry up, hurry up! If it wasn't for the officer being yours, I wouldn't be here waiting for you. If you succeed, that's all. If not, I'll invite my brothers to drink to prove that I'm not here."

He was so anxious that the two of them didn't know what to do.Only a shrill voice shouted from above: "Who is below? It's time. Close the door quickly. The miscellaneous family has to go back and rush into the palace."

Seeing the little official winking at him desperately, the two stopped talking, and the five-point suspicion in their hearts has turned into eight-point belief.

The two rushed back quickly.The little official winked at Jing Lian above, and Jing Lian nodded to Zhu Houzhao.

A group of cavalry galloped from a distance, followed by a large group of soldiers in mottled armor.

Just as he was about to come in, the door suddenly closed, and the creaking sound made Zhu Youtang feel like a bolt from the blue. "Fraud, run!"

It's just that it was too late, only a crackling sound was heard, and countless people screamed and fell from the horse.The horses were frightened, and they stepped directly over the people behind, stepping out layers of fleshy mud and blood.

Zhu Youzhao howled bitterly: "Ah..." The eunuch beside him hurriedly turned his horse around.

Zhu Houwei recognized him in the most conspicuous clothes, and aimed directly at him.It's a pity that he missed both times.Alas, Zhu Houwei slammed his fist on the wall.

He knew that the gun was not accurate, but Zhu Youzhao was so close to him and couldn't kill him, which made Zhu Houwei short of breath.

Seeing that there was still a cannon on the side, Zhu Houwei put the gun on his back and simply ran over to pass the cannonballs, and kept making moves: "Shoot at that one. Maybe he is the leader of the bandit."

"I said you don't know anything to make trouble, don't you know that cannons can't change direction? You think this thing is like a gun... Ouch, my lord, what are you doing here. Be careful that the chamber explodes here and hurts your lord. "

Being expelled was not at all unhappy, Zhu Houwei was still talking there with great interest: "Hurry up, talking is talking, don't stop! Everyone will run away later!"

The bomb was loaded, and he hurried back to light the fuse, but he accidentally burned his hand.

Zhu Houwei couldn't see it, so he rushed over to light the fuse and covered his ears.There was only a sound of a touch, and the shell fell to the bottom, blowing out a big crater.

Hearing the sound of a horn, the people next to him quickly snatched the flame from Zhu Houwei's hand and extinguished it.

The ground under his feet began to shake, and Zhu Houzhao led the [-] imperial guards and rushed out. In the distance, the [-] ordnance troops who had been ambushing for a long time surrounded him.The Ordnance Institute is a phalanx formed by a phalanx.After one row raised their guns to shoot, they squatted down immediately, and the other row immediately stood up to shoot, and this cycle went on and on, under the sound of drums, there was no confusion.

Zhu Youzhu even abandoned his horse and the little eunuch, and sat on the ground with a wry smile, as expected he was still defeated.

The sky is not yet dark, the moon has just emerged from the clouds, and there are still red clouds in the distance.

I am going to be buried here, Zhu Youzhu thought.

"Stand up." Zhu Houzhao pointed his spear at Zhu Youzhao's chest, with white armor and a resolute face, as if a god had descended.Zhu Youzhu knew that he was completely defeated.
