Chapter 866 Calm
Chapter 866
It was not until this time that the people around him found the dagger on Tan You's chest and realized that Song Nan launched a fatal blow at the moment when he was shot.
"Don't stop? Tan You is dead. Do you all want to die with him? Song Nan shouted coldly.
Wanzhi Wang Yong also shouted in unison: "Put down the blade, hold your head and squat on the ground, or you will be killed without mercy."
The foreign soldiers were shocked to hear that Tan You was killed by Song Nan, and there was no fighting spirit. In addition, they already knew the news that Zhengyang Gate was broken. The battle in the corridor was also killed and injured by the brocade guards. At this time, there was no reason to insist. Some people began to throw down their weapons, hugged their heads and necks and squatted on the ground with their hands; there People took the lead, and suddenly the rest of the people followed suit, and the sound of the blade landing was endless.
Suddenly, two thousand foreign soldiers suddenly turned their heads and flew out of the Daming Gate. They were the leading generals. The soldiers could survive, but they had little chance, so they went first. Wang Yong tore open his coat with a tear, revealing a close-fitting arm full of knives, and jumped into the air on the top of a soldier's head. The flying knife in his hand shot out, and the two thousand households flew the knife in their hearts. After a few steps, they pounced on the ground and squirmed. Several brocade guard flag cades rushed to the end of the two.
"Your Excellency, are you hurt?" Wan Zhi came forward to help Song Nan.
Song Nan frowned and said, "This man's fist and feet are very heavy. This punch almost broke my shoulder bone. I'm afraid this half arm can't recover in ten days and a half months."
Wan Zhi rest assuredly reached out to check Song Nan's shoulder and confirmed that the bone was not dislocated or broken, so he was relieved. Wang Yong smiled and said, "Your Excellency is good at martial arts. Tan You used to be known as the most brave warrior among Xunqi. Now I'm afraid this title will be replaced."
Song Nan looked at Tan You's body and sighed, "Yongwu is indeed brave. In terms of strength alone, you two are not as good as him, but you just have no brains. He said that there was no chance to give him, but he ignored giving him a chance and ruined his family in vain. Originally, if he saw the opportunity, he would have at least be able to correct his mistakes. Now he has become a best friend of the rebels, ah.
Wan Zhi said, "He can't live for his sins. Since he died at the hands of adults, the person in his house can't stay."
Song Nan was silent. He knew what Wan Zhi meant to prevent Tan You's descendants from hating Song Nan and might have future troubles in the future. Song Nan also had no time to say anything more. This era was so cruel. In a situation like Tan You, it was normal for a man in the family to confiscated the family. It was normal for a woman to be a slave in the raccoon room of the workshop as a maidservant. It was also stipulated by the law of the Ming Dynasty, but he insisted on rooting to eradicate the grass.
"Wan Zhi led a thousand people to clean up the battlefield, watch the prisoners, and strictly guard the palace; Wang Yong followed me out of the palace to attack the back of the Zhengyang Gate. I'm afraid that the Zhengyang Gate is already in full swing, and we have to help the British public."
"Yes."
Wanzhi Wangyong quickly rectified the team, and more than 3,000 flag schools were killed and injured. The cruelty of the short soldiers in the corridor just now can be seen. In just a short meal, 600 or 700 people were killed and injured. Song Nan also tied the swollen and bruises on his left shoulder with bandages, and rushed out of the Daming Gate to the square in front of the palace with an embroidered spring knife in one hand.
In the distance ahead, the sound of firelight killing was still dense, but suddenly there was a dense footsteps in front of them. Hundreds of dark shadows rushed over under the firelight. Wang Yong hurriedly shouted, "Welcome the enemy."
The brocade guards hurriedly raised their blades to wait, but they heard the delicate voice of the woman from the opposite side: "Husband, husband, is it you?"
Song Nan was happy and promised to greet her in a loud voice.
The little princess and Ye Fanggu appeared at the southern end of Damingmen Square. Both of them held swords in their hands. The dagger in Ye Fanggu's hand was still blood-stained and obviously after a rush. When she saw Song Nan's fast-moving figure, the little princess shouted and threw away the long sword in her hand and flew over, jumping in full view of the crowd. Song Nan's arms.
"husband, husband." The little princess sobbed and burst into tears into Song Nan's neck, making it hot and sticky.
Song Nan hugged the little princess with one arm and smiled, "Madam, how can everyone look at this?"
The little princess looked up and shouted, "You made us worry. Don't look at it. Who will see me treat him to a whip?"
Wang Yong, Sun Xuanhou Da Biao and others coughed and covered their faces and bowed their heads to avoid them one after another. Song Nan shook her head with a bitter smile and saw Ye Fangu standing aside with a smile and said, "Won't Aunt Fang come to hug you?"
Ye Fanggu blushed and spat. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of the tightly wrapped thing on Song Nan's shoulder and said, "What's wrong with your shoulder? Are you hurt?"
The little princess hurriedly looked at Song Nan's shoulder when she heard the words, but saw that the tightly wrapped bandage fixed half of Song Nan's arm on her neck. Obviously, the injury was not light.
"It's okay. I just suffered some injuries in a fire fight and didn't hurt my bones. I'll recover in a few days." Song Nan said carelessly.
The little princess stamped her feet regretfully. Just now, she rushed over and hammered and hit her with her hand. I don't know how many times the shoulder wound must have been hurt. It must have been terrible. The red-skinned dog didn't say a word, but she couldn't stand it.
Song Nan looked at the firelight in the south and shouted, "What's the situation of Zhengyang Gate? Look at this, it's broken, otherwise you can't rush over.
Ye Fanggu checked Song Nan's injury and nodded, "Yes, the city wall has been broken. After the defeat of the foreign army, Grandpa Zhang is leading the regimental soldiers and horses to clean up the remaining soldiers and horses. We killed you directly to pick you up, but we didn't expect you to be out of danger.
Song Nan nodded and praised, "My brother-in-law's good ability. This time, it is a proof of my ability. The wall of Zhengyangmen is extremely thick. I thought that my uncle could not attack it without spending three or two days, but I didn't expect him to make contributions in half a day."
Ye Fang opened her mouth and stopped talking. Song Nan didn't notice her expression and said excitedly, "Let's go there quickly, but we can't let Yang Ting and those traitors take advantage of the chaos."
Ye Fanggu said, "I can't run away. Lord Yang Yiqing led the regimental battalion soldiers and horses out. All the gates in the inner city have been controlled, and they can't escape."
Song Nan was stunned and said, "Have other soldiers and horses in the regiment also been dispatched?"
Ye Fanggu nodded and said, "Yes, when the wall of Zhengyangmen was broken, the regimental battalion happened to arrive, otherwise it would take some effort for the foreign troops to defend the entrance."
Song Nan sneered and said, "I said that they arrived as soon as the Zhengyang Gate was broken, but it was a coincidence. They are all better than monkeys, that's all. Let's settle this account after it. Let's go to Zhengyang Gate to clean up the mess first.
At the second update, the battle inside and outside Zhengyang Gate officially ended. After the collapse of the city wall, Yang Yiqing and Guo bravely took Xuanwu Gate and rushed straight to the back of Daming Gate from the west. coincidentally, the other four battalions also came to reinforce from the east, and Zhang Lun's men remained The remaining regimental soldiers and horses were counted, and with more than 2,000 soldiers and horses in the Shenji camp, there were seven battalions of soldiers and horses, with a number of nearly 50,000.
The marquis were mainly guests. Instead, they blamed Zhang Lun for not giving them an order, saying that after a fierce ideological struggle, they decided to send troops without orders. They also said that when Lord Yang Yiqing went to find them, they had already had the idea of sending troops and had begun to prepare. Finally, they hurriedly prepared and did not delay the big event.
Zhang Lun knew that he had no time to talk to them. He only ordered them to quickly eliminate the remnants, and then led the troops to block the city, search for the remnants and arrest the rebels, waiting for further instructions. The marquis were full of energy and fought bravely. They chased Zhang Wei's retreated soldiers and killed more than 1,000 people, and captured more than 16,000 soldiers and horses.
On the square behind Zhengyang Gate, the ground was full of mess and corpses. The regimental soldiers and horses cleared a large area of open space, and foreign soldiers were detained here. In the north, Yang Tin and Fei Hong, Zhang Wei and others, who were caught and brought to justice, stood by the bonfire under the care of Captain Jinyiwei; Yang Ting and his face was haggard, as if he was dozens of years old and elegant, now he looks like an old man. Fei Hong also stood beside him with his head down. Zhang Wei had been bleeding on his arms and curled up like an ordinary soldier's armor. When he saw the death of a large number of soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp, Zhang Wei knew that the general situation had gone, so he changed the soldier's armor to escape, but he was betrayed by his generals and was caught by Zhao Dapeng, a thousand households in the Jinyiwei fire guard battalion.
The square was gradually cleaned up, and tens of thousands of soldiers began to line up in the square. Hundreds of bonfires were lit, and the square was illuminated. On the wall of Zhengyangmen in the rear, the black smoke drifted into the dark night sky, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and burning.
Soon after, the civil and military officials who fled back to the house after escaping from the palace at noon were dragged out of their homes by the captain of Jinyi. The six nine general inspectors and six chiefs came, and the other two university scholars in the cabinet also came. The governor of Shuntianfu came. Finally, they stepped on the dark blood stains of the Ming Gate, and the internal court's The eunuchs came, and Empress Dowager Zhang also came under the 'protection' of dozens of Jinyiwei Dahan generals.
Imperial relatives, military and political officials in the capital of the Ming Dynasty came, and all the important people in the heart of the Ming Dynasty gathered in the square behind Zhengyangmen. Some of them looked panicked, some were extremely excited, some were silent, and some looked indifferent; all kinds of faces were undoubtedly revealed in the light of the bonfire.
There was no noise in the square of tens of thousands of people, and the scene was quiet and terrible. They were all waiting for a person to appear. That was Song Nan, the Duke of Zhen. They were called here, or forced to come here. It was also the order of Song Nan, Duke of Zhen. Only he could let them come silently, even if it was his spleen. The most stubborn officials, at this moment, they dare not play their personality at all.
The horseshoe sounded, and more than a dozen rode galloped in. Tens of thousands of people looked at the direction of the horse running. A big black horse sat on Song Nan, tied a bandage in one hand, holding a tray in one hand, and a straight waist and ran into the entrance without squinting.
Song Nan got off her horse and put the tray in her hand on a temporarily arranged incense case. She turned around and glanced at the whole audience. The whole audience seemed to be stared at by him, and their hearts thumped. They were a pair of cold and evil eyes. They had just experienced the chaos in the capital, and the eyes of the Duke of Zhen were still cold and murderous. .
Song Nan came to the ministers and turned around to salute the Empress Dowager Zhang, who was sitting in a daze. Only then did the ministers remember to salute the empress dowager. When the empress dowager arrived just now, none of them thought of salute. They were thinking about what was going to happen tonight, but even the most basic Ben's etiquette has been forgotten.
Song Nan did not forget, so he respectfully saluted Empress Dowager Zhang. The ministers and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses behind him also saluted, and Yang Ting and Zhang Weifei Hong also saluted.
After the ceremony, Song Nan turned around, glanced at the whole audience, and said in a loud voice, "Gentlemen, Song Nan, the Duke of Zhen, is now declared by the order of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Before that, I told you sadly that the emperor had died at three o'clock this morning.
Most people already know the news. Only a small number of people don't know the news because they don't dare to go out because of the chaos in the city. But at this moment, whether they already know it or don't know it, there is a shocking cry in an instant. Some people beat their chests and stop their feet, some people grab the ground with their heads, and some people cry. , someone cried silently.
In the face of this situation, Song Nan couldn't help but have red eyes. Although he knew that some of them were completely acting, his feelings for Zhengde were true. Finally, he could calm down the chaos and solemnly declare this matter. Song Nan's heart flashed at Zhengde's death, and he couldn't help but cry.
After a long time, Yang Yiqing wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "Please be sorry for the loss of a wise king in our dynasty. Heaven and earth are discolored by it, the wind and clouds are moved by it, and the ministers and people of the whole country are also grieve; but when the emperor died, the state affairs are chaotic, and there are rebellious ministers, which makes the emperor's heroic spirit difficult. However, at this time, you must not indulge in grief. The funeral of the country, the affairs of establishing the king of inheritance, and punishing the ministers of great rebellion must be carried out immediately, and cannot be delayed until the chaos of the society. When the emperor died, Song Nan, the Duke of Zhen, was on his side. The emperor personally dictated an edict and made arrangements for the government. Please listen to the emperor's will and obey his will.
