On the fourteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the day of Yichen of the month of Yi Chou, it is appropriate to move, set up certificates, lift off, install incense, make fire, combine longevity wood, open and save, and bury.
Although the night was quiet, there were many people awake in Ruozhou City, and they were all waiting.
"Did the Xu family take action?" Duanmuyu asked, tilting his head.
Two hours ago, Xu Xiaoyu came to Juheyuan in person and reported his plan to Duanmu Yuzhi——
Xu Xiaoshi led 200 people into the county government office and attacked and killed Nintendo; Xu Xuegong and Xu Xumo led 500 people to break into the prison of the military camp at night, rescued the detained Xu family generals, and launched a mutiny; Xu Xuyan and Xu Xunxuan , Xu Jiu led 800 people to raid Ruozhou City Gate; Xu Xiaoyi led the remaining people to guard the Xu family's mansion to prevent the martial arts comrades in the mansion from getting involved. After Xu Xiaoshi, Xu Xu Gong and Xu Xu Mo completed their mission, they immediately led people to the city gate to support them, making sure to control the city gate.
Although things happened unexpectedly, Xu Xiaoyu's plan was very detailed and sound, and Duan Muyu had no reason to refute it.
With Duan Muyu's approval, the Xu family took action.
Mu Ju took two steps forward and replied softly: "Young Master, a message has been sent over there. Everyone was sent out three-quarters of an hour ago and they are working on something right now."
Duan Muyu had been deducing the direction of the current situation in the house before. He was so focused that he didn't notice Mu Qi knocking on the door, so he asked this question.
"Ruozhou... I never thought that the first fire would be started by Ruozhou. Haha, interesting."
In terms of tactics, it is a taboo for military strategists to raise troops in the enemy's hinterland.
Fighting alone, with enemies on all sides, it is difficult to call for help, and it is difficult to sustain it for a long time.
However, Duanmuyu was surprisingly optimistic about this situation.
"Thousands of plans are worse than a God-given opportunity. Ruozhou is a place chosen by God."
... ...
Nintendo was woken up by a team from the Sentinel Camp. Before he understood what was going on, he was carried to the side courtyard by two people.
Although there are many guards in the house and they are all brave, they are ultimately unable to defeat the disciples brought by Xu Xiaoshi. Although he fought hard, he still couldn't stop the thief from entering the inner courtyard. Upon seeing this, Wu Shanmin hurriedly led a team of people to pick up Nintendo on the road ahead.
Before coming, he had issued a military order. If Nintendo dies, he will die; if Nintendo lives, he will live.
"The person named Ren is there, he went to the side courtyard!"
Among the noisy sounds of fighting, these words were particularly harsh. After hearing this, Nintendo's feet suddenly became weak. If there were not people on the left and right supporting him, he might have stumbled.
The last ten people at the end of the team consciously stayed behind. With a "swish" sound, they pulled out the daggers at their waists and blocked the corridor.
Xu Xiaoshi was always the person in charge of this night attack, but he never took action until he heard that shout and then chased him to the side courtyard.
His martial arts and light skills were much higher than those of other disciples. He was the first to rush into the side courtyard.
Ten people, standing in front of him were ten masters of the Divine Sentinel Battalion.
"Fight quickly!" Xu Xiaoshi drew out his sword decisively, exerted force with his feet, and used the Xu family's swordsmanship to attack the Lingtian style among Wu Nian's nine styles.
Go without thoughts, attack without fear. The sword reaches the sky, and the blood is like rain.
Kill two people with one move.
The remaining eight people quickly changed formations and surrounded Xu Xiaoshi in the center. They are Dahua's most powerful army individually, and they are very familiar with each other's coordination. They know how to position themselves without just a few words.
Their purpose was to hold Xu Xiaoshi back, not to fight him to the death. Therefore, although the eight people were encircled, they did not take the opportunity to take action. They only waved daggers to distract him.
"Drag?" Xu Xiaoshi's face turned cold, he shook his wrist and tilted his sword, using his lifelong skill.
Although the eight soldiers of the Shenshao Battalion resisted bravely, their skills were far inferior, and they fell to the ground one by one after less than a hundred moves.
Xu Xiaoshi got rid of the entanglement, continued to pursue, and finally caught up in the back garden.
It turned out that there were more than ten members of the Xu family squatting here, and they met Nintendo, Wu Shanming and others. At this moment, the two teams were fighting.
Xu Xiaoshi intervened in the battle, and the Shenshao Battalion quickly fell into a disadvantage.
"People named Xu, you...you are so brave!" Nintendo pointed at Xu Xiaoshi and cursed angrily.
The situation had reached this point, and he knew that there was no possibility of survival. He snatched the short knife from the hand of a soldier from the Shenshao Battalion beside him and killed Xu Xiaoshi without hesitation.
... ...
The military camp is a place where troops are stationed and trained. The houses are simple and crude, making it difficult to build a prison. Therefore, military camps usually build additional yamen in the inner city where the military camp is located to store military supplies, store military supplies, and detain military suspects.
The Yamen of the Ruozhou Military Camp is located next to the State Government Office at the end of Puhua Street, about ten miles away from the Ruozhou Military Camp, covering an area of 100 acres and guarding 1,000 soldiers.
At three o'clock in the morning, Xu Xugong and Xu Momo took five hundred people and rushed to the military camp Yamen via a small road. This is the end of the street, and there are only a few residents. A few barking dogs did not wake up the night workers, which is convenient for the Xu family.
When the guards reacted, hundreds of Xu family warriors rushed into the barracks like tigers, stabbing with swords and killing dozens of people in half a cup of tea.
"Those who surrender will kneel down with their hands behind their backs and will not be killed!" Xu Xigong suddenly shouted.
Only a few of these people are from the Shenshao camp from the capital, and most of them are soldiers from the Ruozhou military camp and are available to the Xu family.
Seeing the domineering and vicious look of these people, these guards had no intention of resisting for a long time, and many of them were almost scared out of their wits. When they heard that there was still a way to survive, they all fell to their knees, holding their hands behind their backs.
On the other side, Xu Yumo led people to arrest several jailers and quickly rescued the 155 military camp generals who were detained. Most of these people are outsiders of the Xu family, but there are also many who only have some contacts with the Xu family, and it can be said that they were imprisoned unjustly.
Of course they were rescued together. This group of people were all taken to the Yamen Campus. Nearly a thousand surrendered soldiers had their hands and feet bound and were held in two groups. The group with the smaller number of people wore different clothes, and everyone recognized them. They were not soldiers from the Ruozhou military camp.
If they are not soldiers from the headquarters, they are naturally the generals stationed here from the Shen Sentinel Battalion.
"Everyone, the imperial court has unreasonably slandered the Ruozhou military camp and is rebellious. General Wang Zunzhong has been escorted into the capital by the Shenshao camp. I'm afraid the disaster is worse. I think you know some things even if I don't tell you. General Wang is a close relative of my Xu family. , when he encountered this difficulty, we, the Xu family, had no reason to stand by and watch, so we went to investigate after hearing the news. My father said: If General Wang does have second thoughts, the Xu family will not dare to ask more questions; but if the court wants to frame Wang, General, I, the Xu family, are trying to get an explanation for the Wang family even if we risk our fortune! When the Xu family was investigating this matter, they accidentally intercepted a secret letter written by the emperor to Nintendo. The main message of the letter was: The little emperor is suspicious of me, Xu. The family colluded with General Wang and wanted to take advantage of the martial arts conference held in Ruozhou to raise troops and plot an attack, so they ordered Nintendo to kill all the rebel generals in the Ruozhou military camp on the spot without being escorted to the capital for trial. According to the information, the 'rebellious generals' in the letter meant It’s all the gentlemen. Hum hum, I believe you know better than me whether the military camp in Ruozhou has two minds and whether the gentlemen have two minds. The Xu family has lived in Ruozhou for generations and has received countless kindness from the people of Ruozhou. We can never tolerate our innocent guards being imprisoned and dying unjustly, so my father decided to take the risk and ordered Su Gong to lead people to rob the prison tonight and rescue you." Xu Su Gong stood in front of everyone and said solemnly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a general who had just been released from prison began to curse angrily. He Tianyi walked out of the crowd, grabbed the sword from a member of the Xu family, and walked quickly in front of the soldiers of the Shen Sentinel Camp. He stabbed randomly, killing several people in an instant, and then looked at the robes who were imprisoned together. , shouted sternly: "If the imperial court wants us to die, we will show it to him! Brothers, show your blood!"
"It's not appropriate! Tianyi, it's not appropriate!" Seeing this, Xu Sugong shouted quickly.
Whether motivated by anger, hatred or resentment, all the generals in prison were holding back their anger. After listening to He Tianyi's words, several more drew their swords and stabbed the soldiers of the Shenshao Camp who were unable to resist, and He didn't take into account that Xu Xigong kept "persuading" from the side.
Killing the people in the Shenshao camp means going to the road of no return, and you have to do the opposite if you don't want to.
The general situation is such that the remaining people may be hesitant or have concerns, but the robes all kill people wisely. If they don't kill, they will always be different, and there is no chance that they will be regarded as spies.
In the end, one hundred and fifty-five generals and subordinates all used their swords, and more than two hundred soldiers of the Shenshao camp were slaughtered, and no one survived.
"If the imperial court is unjust, don't blame us for being ruthless. Although everyone in the Ruozhou military camp is sincere and has no objections, today they were almost killed! Huh, I can't stand this grievance, and I must not let others slaughter me. Who wants to kill me? I will kill him first! Today, I, He Tianyi, committed a crime and cannot look back. Please ask the Xu family for protection! From now on, I, He Tian, will be loyal to the Xu family in Ruozhou. Damn the Dahua court! Brother Guys, are you right?" He Tian stood in front of Xu Xigong and said "righteously".
