The eldest son of the red mansion

Chapter 593
Those strong men who were driven up to the tower were forced to stand on the tower with weapons, but these people did not have the determination to fight desperately, and they immediately hid aside when they saw danger.

Although there are guards from all over behind to supervise the battle, these people don't dare to persecute them too much, because these strong men also have weapons in their hands.

Not to mention that King Zhongshun gathered strong men here and forced them to go to the city to fight against the enemy, but also that Jia Ke was under the tower, and seeing that it was getting late, he ordered all around to withdraw his troops and prepare to fight again the next day.

As soon as Jia Ke passed the order, Fan Kang immediately came out to persuade him.

"My lord, although it's getting late now, the city tower is already crumbling. If we stop attacking now, it's just time to give the opponent a breather. It's normal for the capital to recruit 10,000+ strong men with a population of one million. By tomorrow, they will If you can recover some vitality, it is better to attack the city at night."

Jia Ke's eyes lit up after listening to it. Fan Kang's words really made sense.

So Jia Ke took back the order and ordered the troops to light torches, light a bonfire, and attack the city overnight.

From upstairs, King Zhongshun and Niu Jizong saw that the sky had already turned dark, and they thought that Jia Ke would withdraw his troops soon. Today is the end of the day, and in the evening they can recruit some strong men in the capital, and tomorrow they will Can defend the city.

Unexpectedly, Jia Ke didn't stop, and actually lit bonfires and torches outside the city, which illuminated like daytime. Seeing this, she actually wanted to attack the city overnight.

Niu Jizong only felt exhausted now. He came here and there day after day to fight and rescue, and then barely held the city. He wanted to take a rest, but now seeing that Jia Ke didn't stop, he felt a burst of despair.

And the strong men captured from upstairs were already exhausted, and they hadn't had enough water yet. They didn't expect Jia Ke to attack the city overnight, and they were completely demoralized.

Seeing this situation, King Zhongshun knew that if he didn't know how to boost morale, he might be attacked soon, so he immediately ordered his own soldiers to carry dozens of wooden boxes.

King Zhongshun came to the top of the city and opened the wooden box, only to see that there was silver shining inside.

"Soldiers, you have worked hard in the city today, and I am not a ruthless person. Now, each of you will get 10 taels of silver. As long as you pass today and tomorrow, you can still get ten taels of silver."

The eyes of these captured young men were a little red when they saw the shining silver. These people were just ordinary people, and they had never seen so much silver.

Seeing that the morale was available, King Zhongshun hurriedly winked at the people next to him, and his soldiers immediately began to distribute silver taels, and none of them missed ten taels per person.

Now that these strong men on the towers have some money to take tomorrow, they have some morale.

However, after Jia Ke attacked the city for more than an hour, he saw that the top of the city slowly began to stabilize, which puzzled Jia Ke.

And Ben Bray, who was standing next to Jia Ke, was a little impatient seeing this situation, so he stood out from the crowd, "Master, let the slaves attack me once, I don't believe it, are they all iron fighters?" of?"

Jia Ke saw that there was a stalemate on the tower and that a general like Ben Bulei was needed, so he nodded and said to him, "Wear more armor, be careful, and don't be reckless."

After hearing this, Ben Bray nodded again and again, and then he came to the city wall wearing three layers of armor and carrying his big iron gun. He ordered a few soldiers to hold the ladder for him, and he went up the city along the ladder climb.

When the people on the top of the city saw that a strong man was about to go up the top of the city, they hurriedly took huge stones and threw them back and forth to the headquarters.

Although Ben Bray was a reckless man, he was not a fool. He climbed up the watchtower while watching the actions on the watchtower. When he saw the boulder coming, he held an iron gun with one hand and pushed the boulder away with a clang.

The soldiers on the top of the city looked dumbfounded. The boulder weighed more than a hundred catties and was thrown from top to bottom. They never thought that someone could push it away.

As soon as these people on the tower were stunned, Ben Bray climbed up a few more steps, and he was about to reach the tower.

The strong men on the tower yelled loudly for the nearby partners to come for reinforcements, and at the same time chopped at Ben Bray with the knives and guns in their hands.

Ben Bray held the gun with one hand. Although he blocked a few times, it was a bit inconvenient after all. He was hacked several times by them, but fortunately he was wearing three layers of armor, and these people in the city were not specially trained soldiers. So it didn't hurt Ben Bray at all.

With this skill, Ben Bray leaped onto the top of the city, and he could let go of his hands and feet and waved the big iron gun in his hand to attack left and right, clearing an area on the city tower in a short while.

So the soldiers attacking the city took advantage of this time to rush to the top of the city, and more and more Jia Ke soldiers on the top of the city gradually formed a confrontation with Niu Jizong's subordinates on the top of the city tower

Jia Ke saw that a breakthrough had been opened at the bottom of the city, and immediately ordered the troops to gather at this place. Soon, Jia Ke's troops on the tower were more and more. King Zhongshun saw that the situation was over, and hurriedly fled to his palace with his own soldiers. .

Although Niu Jizong also wanted to run for his life, he was surrounded by Jia Ke's soldiers before he could retreat. Niu Jizong had been fighting for a day and was exhausted, so he was captured alive within two strokes.

The battle on the tower was soon over. Jia Ke's soldiers came to the gate of the city and slowly opened the gate of the capital.

Seeing that the city gate had been opened, Jia Ke immediately ordered the soldiers under his command to march straight in.

It was tens of thousands of people who rushed into the capital. Those strong men under the command of King Gongshun dared to resist when they saw that the city gate was broken?One by one, they threw down their weapons and fled home.

Jia Ke originally wanted to mention the Fire Dragon Colt and entered the city with the army, but was stopped by Fan Kang.

"My lord, the situation in the capital is unknown now. It's not safe for my lord to enter the city now. I'd better wait outside the city. The remnants of the enemy will be wiped out tomorrow morning. It won't be too late for my lord to enter the city."

After hearing this, Jia Ke didn't take it seriously, "Since I was born, I have traveled all over the world, and I have never met an enemy. What can a small remnant soldier do to me?"

"My lord, don't be careless. Youdao is the son of a thousand gold, and you can't sit still. Seeing that the great event has been accomplished, the lord should be careful."

Jia Ke thought for a while, and Fan Kang was right, there was no need for him to take any more risks, so he listened to Fan Kang's words and went back to the Chinese army tent to wait for news.

Besides, in the capital city, the generals under Jia Ke's command led the troops to attack the capital city from all directions.But now the capital city is in chaos, the soldiers defending the city and the recruited strong soldiers can't resist, they are quickly killed and flee in all directions.

In the middle of the night, the capital gradually calmed down. When the sky brightened, there were no pedestrians on the streets of the capital. Except for Jia Ke's soldiers patrolling everywhere, no one was allowed to go to the streets.

After Jia Ke got up early in the morning, he received the news that the capital had been completely controlled. At this time, Jia Ke re-entered the capital surrounded by the generals.

After Jia Ke entered the city, he didn't go to the Zongli Yamen, but went straight to the palace.

The generals surrounded Jia Ke and entered the palace, and then they stopped the team at the Qianqing Gate. Jia Ke went straight to the Qianqing Gate and sat on the throne of the Qianqing Gate Hall.

Seeing that Jia Ke had achieved the throne, all the generals couldn't help but be overjoyed. It seems that their lord has made up his mind this time.

Jia Ke sat on the throne and was silent for a while. Since he came here through time travel, he has worked hard for more than ten years, and now he has finally achieved this position.

When Fan Kang saw Fan Kang sitting on it, he knew that Jia Ke wanted to ascend the throne this time.But Fan Kang felt that it was not the time yet.

It was Fan Kang who came out of the class and said to Jia Ke: "My lord, in today's world, people have not completely returned to their hearts. Those gentry and nobles don't know what they think, so please be patient for a while."

Jia Ke didn't take it seriously after listening, "Are there still people who are against me in today's world? There have been such precedents in previous dynasties. Do I have to be patient when it comes to me?"

Fan Kang saw that Jia Ke was getting carried away, and hurriedly advised again: "Although the world is peaceful today, this dynasty is still quite popular. The lord has only been in power for a few years, and he hasn't changed the minds of the gentry. If he can't keep it, some people will lean towards the emperor. .”

Jia Ke was annoyed after hearing this. Fan Kang tried to persuade him to postpone his enthronement several times. Could it be that he was also thinking about the previous dynasty.

But Jia Ke still needs Fan Kang not to be angry with him, so he can only compromise.

"Since Fan Aiqing said so, then I'll just listen to you once and put this thought aside for the time being."

Fan Kang looked at Jia Ke's gloomy face, and knew that although he was thinking of Jia Ke this time, he had really angered Jia Ke. It's time to cook the rabbit to death.

So Fan Kang bowed again, and then said: "This time there is such a chaos in the capital, it's all because of unclear responsibilities and powers. I ask my lord to become the king of Yan, and then I will tell the world."

After hearing Fan Kang's words, Jia Ke calmed down. Although he could not be enthroned yet, it was not bad to be able to be called a widow.

"Since this is the case, I will leave this matter to Mr. Fan. All the etiquette must be prepared. After this matter is settled, I will go to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices to heaven."

Fan Kang hurriedly agreed after listening, and then stepped aside.

After Jia Ke finished dealing with the emperor's affairs, he thought of other people again.

"At this time, the relatives of the emperor are not willing to be lonely, and they have joined forces to plot rebellion. They should not be lightly forgiven."

Jia Ke looked down after saying this, "Where is Zheng Kai?"

Zheng Kai, when you heard Jia Ke's greeting, you immediately left the shift, knelt down on one knee, clasped your fists in both hands, and said, "The last general is here."

"I order you to bring your troops and go to Beijing immediately to search for the traitors. All the princes and nobles who participated in the rebellion will take down their family and children, and they will also be thrown into the sky prison with them. After hearing this, they will be punished."

Zheng Kai cupped his fists and clasped his hands after hearing this, and said, "The last general will obey the Lord's order." After finishing speaking, he turned around and went out to do business.

In the end, Jia Ke remembered something again, "Come back for now, I still have orders."

Zheng Kai hurriedly returned to the hall, knelt down on one knee again, and listened to Hou Jiake's orders.

"Although those four kings and eight princes have been friends with me for many years, but this time they participated in the rebellion, you can't take it lightly. You can even take them down, but you just block their mansions and don't touch the women and children inside."

After hearing this, Zheng Kai quickly agreed to look up at Jia Ke, without any other orders, then turned around and left the main hall of Qianqingmen.

Then Jia Ke asked the people below: "Where is Li Deshan?"

Just as Jia Ke finished speaking, a ragged eunuch quickly crawled out from below.

Jia Ke saw that it wasn't Li Deshan, which one was it?
"Why are you in such a mess?"

When Li Deshan heard Jia Ke's move, he was wronged immediately, and burst into tears.

"Returning to the master, since the master left Beijing, King Zhongshun and the others launched a rebellion and searched for the members of Jia's family. The slaves were also within his range of arrest. The slaves were clever, changed their clothes and sneaked into the slums. Save your life."

After Jia Ke heard this, she felt sorry for him, so she comforted him, "Don't cry anymore, go to the harem to change clothes, and then take the eunuchs to find Concubine Xiande and the prince. Where are they? Is there any danger?"
