Ming Dynasty: A mere unruly commoner is rebelling against the heaven?

Chapter 186 If Xuanfu won’t open, then attack the city!
Just as Yang Tong was secretly thinking about how to kill these soldiers who raised questions.

The soldier who raised the question has already started asking Yang Tong for orders!

"General! I am willing to die for the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and save His Majesty!"

This request for orders was like a spark that set a prairie on fire, immediately igniting the enthusiasm of countless grassroots soldiers to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country.

"Yes! That's right! I am also willing to die for the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and save His Majesty!"

"Please give the order to open the gate, General. We are willing to fight to the death for your Majesty and bring him back!"

"General, open the city gate!"

"..."

Hearing these noisy requests for orders, Yang Tong's face turned dark and he was extremely dissatisfied.

"Shut up!"

"You guys think things are too simple!"

In order to stabilize the morale of the army, Yang Tong had to explain: "Your Majesty is in the hands of the Oirat people. If we act rashly, what if we hurt Your Majesty?!"

"Can you bear this responsibility?!"

"Not opening the city gate is the best way to deal with it!"

"But if we don't open the city gates, will the Wala people not harm Your Majesty?"

The soldiers below continued to raise doubts.

"That's enough! I said I won't open the city gate, so I won't open the city gate!"

"All of you retreat back to the barracks!"

"Without my order, no one is allowed to leave the barracks without permission. Anyone who violates this order will be executed!"

After Yang Tong finished speaking, he immediately looked at Zhou Hongyi.

Zhou Hongyi understood what he meant and immediately arranged for other officers to command their own troops to drive all these low-level soldiers back to the barracks.

"General Yang..."

Zhou Hongyi came to Yang Tong with a worried look on his face.

Yang Tong had a cold face and lowered his voice: "Did you see the face of the soldier who questioned my words just now? Who is he?"

"Reporting to General Yang, his name is Wang Chun, and he is a centurion." Zhou Hongyi nodded.

"Very good, kill him."

Yang Tong turned around, his face as dark as ink, and walked towards the city wall.

"General Yang..."

Zhou Hongyi was extremely confused. Now that things had turned out like this, he didn't know what to do.

At this moment, Zhou Hongyi suddenly heard a familiar knock on the door.

The voice was mournful and miserable, and there was great fear in the words.

"I am Yang Kui, the son of Yang Tong, the general of Xuanfu!"

"Father! Open the door!"

"Father! Please, open the door!"

"..."

Zhou Hongyi was shocked and looked at Yang Tong quickly.

"General Yang, listen! It's Yang Kui's voice!"

"Yang Kui... was captured by the emperor?!"

Yang Tong was extremely frightened. He quickly climbed up the city wall, hid under the city wall, and secretly looked outside the city through the gaps.

The next moment, Yang Tong's pupils began to tremble violently, and his eyes were full of shock and anger!
Outside the city of Xuanfu, in front of the army led by Zhu Youtang, there was a figure covered in blood and looking extremely miserable, kneeling.

He knelt outside the gate of Xuanfu City, trembling all over, and kept begging him to open the door.

And this man was none other than his son, Yang Kui, whom he sent to launch a surprise attack on Zhu Youtang’s camp!

Looking at Yang Kui's miserable appearance, Yang Tong was furious and his eyes were bloodshot!
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

"How dare you torture my son like this? Damn it! Damn it!"

Beneath this anger, Yang Tong hides a huge fear deep in his heart!

Yang Kui's current appearance, neither human nor ghost, will this be his next fate?
He must not open this door!
……

a moment ago.

Outside Xuanfu City.

When Zhu Youtang saw that the emperor's guard of honor could not open the gate of Xuanfu, he knew that Yang Tong had now taken control of the military affairs of the entire city of Xuanfu.

But he had no idea which soldiers were loyal to Yang Tong and which soldiers were still loyal to the Ming Emperor.

Now, every battle they fight against the Ming border troops internally is a major consumption of the Ming military strength, and the loss is the comprehensive national strength of the Ming Dynasty!
So if you can avoid fighting, try not to fight.

Zhu Youtang looked at Mou Bin and ordered, "Go, bring Yang Kui up!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Soon, Yang Kui, who was dragged at the back of the team, was brought to the front of the team and made to kneel facing the Xuanfu city gate.

At this time, Yang Kui witnessed more than 10,000 of Yang Tong's personal soldiers being slaughtered by the Xianzhen Camp and turned into a Jingguan.

His spirit had completely collapsed, he was in a daze, and there was no clarity in his eyes anymore.

He was completely frightened. The fearless and death-ready Yang Kui was now dead.

Yang Kui now is just a coward who is filled with fear inside and trembling all over.

Zhu Youtang sat on a Ferghana horse and looked at Yang Kui with cold eyes: "Knock on the door, shout towards Xuanfu."

"Tell Yang Tong to open the door immediately. If he doesn't, I will kill you as a sacrifice."

Yang Kui trembled and said in panic: "I will scream! I will scream! I will scream now!"

"My father only has me as his son. If I knock on the door, he will definitely open it!"

"Don't kill me! He will definitely open it! He will definitely open it!"

Yang Kui kept repeating it, not knowing whether he was speaking to Zhu Youtang or to himself. Then, the scene that had just made Yang Tong so angry that he almost went crazy happened.

Yang Kui shouted for a long time, but there was still no movement at the Xuanfu city gate.

There was still no one on the city wall, and no sound from inside the city, it seemed like an empty city.

"I am Yang Kui, the son of Yang Tong, the general of Xuanfu in the Ming Dynasty!"

"Father! I really beg you, please open the door!"

"Father! Please open the door! I don't want to die! I really don't want to die!"

"..."

Yang Kui still didn't give up and kept shouting, but he had already cried until he was out of breath.

Yang Kui was filled with despair. If Yang Tong didn't open the city gate, he would surely die!
Seeing that Yang Kui was unable to open the gate of Xuanfu, Zhu Youtang gave up the idea of ​​opening the gate and prepared to attack the city directly.

"Gao Shun."

"The end will be here."

Gao Shun took a step forward and came to Zhu Youtang's side.

After Zhu Youtang took one last look at the Xuanfu city gate, he turned around and returned to the dragon sedan chair.

"Cut off Yang Kui's head and shoot it into Xuanfu."

"Let the trap camp get ready and attack the city immediately!"

Gao Shun was shocked, and immediately bowed and accepted the order: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Gao Shun personally held the knife and came to Yang Kui who was lying on the ground in fear.

Yang Kui kept shaking, shaking his head, and begging for mercy.

"Please don't kill me, I can still scream, I can still knock on the door, please don't..."

Before Yang Kui finished speaking, Gao Shun had already dropped his sword.

Yang Kui's words of begging for mercy came to an abrupt end, and his head rolled down, splattering blood all over the ground.

Gao Shun picked up Yang Kui's head and waved his hand. Then a soldier from the Xianzhen Camp put a five-stone bow into Gao Shun's hand.

It is said that during the Three Kingdoms period, Lu Bu could use a ten-stone bow.

Gao Shun was a little worse, but his arm strength was still amazing and he was used to using a five-stone bow.

During the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court's assessment requirement for the army was that infantrymen should be able to use a one-stone bow and cavalrymen should be able to use an eight-dou bow.

As for the Mongols of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, ordinary cavalrymen used carved bows of about one and a half stones, while generals such as Yalan, Xibani, and Ahemakhan used bows of two stones.

Gao Shun's ability to use the five-stone bow can be said to be the best in the world.

Gao Shun tied Yang Kui's head tightly to the iron arrow, and then bent the bow and drew the arrow.

After pulling the five-stone bow in his hand to the shape of a full moon, Gao Shun let go and the iron arrow shot into Xuanfu at the speed of wind.

Gao Shun then jumped on his horse, drew his sword, and raised his arms and shouted.

"All the trap camps are ready, follow me and charge!"

"Conquer Xuanfu City!"

"kill!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Under the leadership of Gao Shun, 50,000 soldiers from the Xianzhen Camp charged towards the city gate of Xuanfu!
In the sky, the iron arrow shot by Gao Shun happened to fall in front of Yang Tong and Zhou Hongyi.

"Son? Son...son!"

Looking at Yang Kui's head that suddenly fell in front of him.

Yang Tong was stunned for a moment, then he pounced forward and untied Yang Kui's head from the iron arrow.

Yang Tong held Yang Kui's head, tears streaming down his face.

When Zhou Hongyi saw this horrifying scene, his scalp suddenly went numb and he felt great fear.

At this moment, outside Xuanfu City, there were loud sounds of horse hooves and shouts of killing!
The sound was like an overwhelming force. Although separated by a thick city gate, it still made Zhou Hongyi tremble with fear all over.

"General Yang, what should we do?!"

"Your Majesty, he is leading his troops to attack!"

Yang Tong was also awakened by the roaring sound. He immediately held Yang Kui's head and ran up to the city wall again to peek at the situation outside.

Zhu Youtang's guard of honor and carriage, as well as civil and military officials, the Oirat tribe, and ten thousand factory guards were all still waiting in the distance.

But the 50,000 soldiers from the Formation Trap have already begun attacking the city!

Fifty thousand heavily armored cavalrymen attacked the city, and their attack was on the city wall facing the Ming Dynasty side.

If Xuanfu doesn’t fight back against such a fierce attack, it won’t be able to hold out for long!

Yang Tong was anxious and angry, and quickly ordered Zhou Hongyi: "Quick! Go find some trustworthy soldiers to climb up the city wall and launch a counterattack against these siege camps!"

"We must not let them attack the city! We must not!"

"Yes, General Yang!"

Zhou Hongyi looked terrified and hurriedly left the city wall and returned to the central military camp.

In the shortest possible time, Zhou Hongyi summoned all the officers of all ranks who had participated in the mutiny in the military camp.

He then ordered them to take their personal soldiers, climb up the city wall, and do their best to stop the Xianzhen Camp from attacking the city.

These officers also knew that the matter was serious, so they all selected some absolutely loyal soldiers as quickly as possible and ran up to the city wall.

Although these personal soldiers already knew some of the inside story beforehand.

Knowing that things are far from as simple as Yang Tong said.

But when they really saw the emperor's ceremonial guards, civil and military officials, ten thousand factory guards, and fifty thousand siege troops outside the city wall, they still gasped.

In such a huge group, the two thousand Oirat people seemed insignificant.

Even in this situation, could Yang Tong say that the Oirat people captured the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?

Looking at the Oirat people like this, it would be more reasonable to say that they came to protect the Ming Emperor, right?
