Chapter 132 The Great Ocean of People's War(1/2)
Finally, with Yuan Keli's support, Li Rumei opened the Chaoyang Gate with a short and tragic battle...
But he lost 150 servants.
You must know that his brother only lost 200 clans to the Bitumen House, so he had already returned and cried with pain.
"Kill, kill in, kill all these thieves!"
In contrast to his elegant name, Li Rumei, who actually belongs to the irritable brother, stood in the Chaoyang Gate of the dead body, roaring like a wounded beast.
Two thousand,850 cavalrymen flocked in by him.
These elite servants from Liaodong stepped out of iron hooves on the long stone street and rushed forward along the empty Chaoyangmen Street.
Their purpose is very clear, which is to rush into the palace as fast as possible.
It is best to save the emperor from the capital. If you can't save it, you must stick to the palace. The main force led by Li Rusong has entered Shanhaiguan, and Yang Yuan has joined honestly. As long as they arrive in the capital, then Du Tong, You Jixian, and Zhang Shijue have no choice.
Then the army will fight with Shuntian and kill all the troublemakers who dared to follow Yang Feng.
The initiator of this plan was Li Song, the old partner of Li Chengliang.
When Yang Feng was a noble man, the gentry of Shuntian was at most watching the fun, but when Yang Feng began to divide the fields, they had no other choice and had to completely eradicate the cancer.
Li Song contacted Li Chengliang.
Yang Hao persuaded Li Rusong to make up his mind in Liaodong.
Yuan Keli designed a raid plan to buy Liu Chao and Ma's command who had the ability to resist Yang Feng's bewitching due to special reasons. They hid Zhengyin Temple in advance and waited. Ma Wenqing set fire at his own house. The fire burned and led the Red Turban Army in Sichengfang away. Then they led Liu Chao to the Chaoyang Gate and let Li Rumei's army enter the city. After the incident, the Li family directly imitated the example of the Duke of Qian and inherited the Liaodong general to guard Liaodong. At the same time, all the money in the palace belonged to them.
Anyway, Li Rusong had the final say in the capital at that time, and these would definitely be fulfilled for them.
The reason why Li Rusong dared to take this risk was very simple, because he knew the scumbags in the Jingying camp, and he never thought that this plan would fail.
Three thousand elite servants...
Aren’t beating those wastes in Jingying abused vegetables?
However……
Li Rumei looked at the Beijing camps behind her that fought to the end.
This is not right!
"General Ziqing, you have already entered the city, don't think about anything else."
Yang Hao said with a smile.
Li Rumei put aside the hidden worries in her heart and immediately cheered up her spirits to urge the war horses, and rushed forward with the torrent of cavalry on this three-mile-long street.
Unstoppable along the way.
But to their north, there were already vague shouts.
Before, the Red Turban Army was putting out fires three miles away. Guns and cannons were heard here, and they were definitely returning, but the speed of walking was incomparable to the cavalry. Even if it was purely modern ordinary people running, they had to run for seven or eight minutes at such a distance, not to mention that these Red Turban Army were exhausted from putting out the fire. It would be nice to be able to get back in a quarter of an hour, but the cavalry only took two minutes to pass through this long street.
This raid was the difference in speed. The only problem was that there were some accidents in the process of entering the door.
But this accident is not enough to change the situation.
Soon the forward arrived at the intersection of the Cross Street and went straight to Shuangnian Street. They were going to go to Dong'anmen and enter the palace from there to seize control of the Imperial City. When Li Rumei and others arrived at Yanfu Palace, the forward had already turned south at the end of Shuangnian Street, but at the same time, the team that was originally running at full speed began to slow down...
"Don't stop!"
Li Rumei roared angrily.
Their shouts of killing in the north are already very clear.
But their team was still slowing down, just like there was a blockage in front of them.
Li Rumei urged her to move forward without hesitation, and soon the entire team stopped, and he also reached the end of Shuangnian Street.
Then he was stunned.
It's really blocked.
The cavalry in front was cursing helplessly.
Through countless discarded vehicles, mules and horses, there were countless Red Turban troops. They even ignored this side. They just continued to create more obstacles under the command of those officers. These should have been to reinforcements and firefighting, but immediately discarded the tools they brought with them to create obstacles. Moreover, the area was occupied by craftsmen, and these craftsmen were quickly carrying wood and bamboo from their homes and continued to lay more antlers behind the obstacles.
There are also many nearby trees directly sawed down, and several big trees have fallen...
“This road is not open!”
An officer in command shouted at Li Rumei with a smile.
Li Rumei raised the bow and arrow angrily, and then his sharp arrow that shot the famous Japanese generals out, and the man raised the lid of the pot to block it.
At the same time, several subordinates behind him raised their bird guns.
"Let's go, turn to Chongwenmen Street!"
Li Rumei said angrily amid the gunshots.
He and his subordinates turned around, but they did not notice that behind the walls on the roadside, there were suddenly many people on the roofs, followed by blue bricks flying out, and several unexpected cavalrymen were immediately hit, one of them screamed and fell off his horse...
"Old Wang!"
The cavalry beside him roared angrily.
Then he raised his bow and arrow, but the heads retracted as quickly as possible.
But the blue bricks continued to fly out, and the blocked cavalry screamed in the rain of bricks. These were five pounds of blue bricks, and it would be a fatal blow to the head.
"Don't worry about them, go!"
Li Rumei shouted.
They quickly turned around and turned south at the intersection of the crossroads to walk south on Chongwenmen Street. But just after running away, hundreds of donkeys suddenly rushed out of the Dushi Hutong in front. The donkeys instantly blocked the streets, shouting as if laughing at them. At the very beginning, the cavalrymen in front were so angry that they waved their spears to drive them away, but they did not notice that dozens of sharp bamboo poles flew out from the wall next to them. One of the war horses that hit him did not pierce, but cut a bloody wound on the horse's back.
The war horse stood up in pain and almost threw him off the horse.
At the same time, the wall on the other side of the donkey group suddenly fell down, and countless unruly people rushed out of it, and they all pushed cars full of miscellaneous items. They threw the cars directly on the street, then turned around and hid back into the alley.
Only one person was left there.
This person smiled and raised a bunch of firecrackers in his hand for a moment, then threw them into the donkey group.
The frightened donkey group amid the sound of firecrackers immediately rushed towards the cavalry.
"Set fire, set fire to death these unruly people!"
Yang Hao arrived behind and shouted in anger.
"burn!"
Li Rumei shouted without hesitation.
The cavalry quickly looked for fire-induced objects, but setting fire was not that simple, especially as it was the main street, with walls on both sides and tiles on the roof, which was not so easy to light. Ma Wenqing used thousands of dans of cotton to create a fire in the north. Just as the cavalry were studying the setting fire, gunfire sounded from behind, and Li Rumei quickly turned around. Countless fires flashed on the street to the north, and dense bullets were hitting the blocked cavalry. It was obvious that reinforcements from the Beijing camp arrived.
"Put down the wall and enter Mingzhaofang!"
He made a quick decision.
The cavalry dismounted one after another and pushed the wall next to them together.
The rammed earth wall was not strong, and was then pushed down, revealing the Leopard House Alley inside. The cavalry immediately stepped on the wreckage of the archway wall and rushed into Mingzhaofang. But as soon as they walked out, they ran into a team of Red Turban Army. They looked at the cavalry in shock and threw down the wood they carried as quickly as possible, and then hid in the courtyard gate next to them. The cavalry continued to move forward, and then bricks flew out from the courtyard walls on both sides at the same time. Because the alley was narrow, more than a dozen cavalry were attacked at the same time, and the vanguard immediately fell into chaos.
"Run over!"
Li Rumei was still yelling anxiously from behind.
The shouts of killing in the north became clearer and clearer, and even the sound of gunfire was mixed with the sound of cannons. His cavalry should have been fighting with the opponent.
But such an environment is a tragedy!
He had already regretted it at this time. He never expected that the troublemakers in the capital were so difficult to deal with. Wasn't they all good when he came to the capital before? He was honest, how did this suddenly become like this? Why did those sheep-like people become fierce troublemakers? If he had known this, he wouldn't have been so stupid to break in!
"Set the fire, set the fire quickly!"
Yang Hao was also urging.
"Brother Fengjun, do we set fire to ourselves in such places?"
Li Rumei shouted unbearably.
As soon as he finished speaking, countless fires flew out from the wall next to him, and then bundles of lit straw fell among the cavalry.
The war horse screamed in chaos.
"Retreat, withdraw first!"
Li Rumei finally woke up and quickly turned her head and shouted.
Suddenly, the sound of cannons came from the right. He looked at the flames on the wall of the imperial city in shock, followed by the whistling of shells that cut through the air. The dense shells instantly landed at the intersection behind, and the cavalry blocked there were people and horses over...
"Retreat, retreat all!"
He yelled.
The imperial city has been deployed, and the surprise attack is meaningless.
The congested cavalrymen cursed and turned around.
The shells continued to fly in the imperial city, and the dead cavalrymen at the crossroads were behind.
To be continued...
