Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

"I'm sure you all know how much wealth Prince Fu has."

"Whether you spend the rest of your life eating coarse food or living a life of wealth and luxury is up to you."

"I'll just remind you once. When the city is in chaos, there are some things that no one will know!"

"hiss........."

As soon as these words were spoken, the captain's eyes widened.

"Your Excellency means......"

Fu Zhenglin reached out and patted him on the shoulder twice: "Yes, that's what you meant!"

"How about it, do you dare to gamble with me?"

"It's a bet!"

The centurion and the others nodded in unison.

First he rebelled, and then he took advantage of the chaos in the city to amass enough wealth for himself to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

If the imperial court came to suppress them, they would surrender.

If the imperial court does not come to suppress the rebellion, then the fake play will become real.

This business is a win-win no matter how you look at it, right?

But soon someone raised a new question: "Sir, what about the others......"

Fu Zhenglin said: "Don't touch them for now. After the matter is done tomorrow, if they are smart, they will naturally know which side to stand on!"

"The most important thing right now is to complete the tasks assigned to you by my master!"

"Yes!"

Everyone bowed and then left.

After a stick of incense!

In the quiet city of Luoyang, countless men in black suddenly appeared.

They wandered the streets and alleys, and with their agility, they climbed over walls and broke into houses.

Under the astonished gaze of the people, the men in black lowered their voices, left a few words, and then quietly left.

"Open the city gates and welcome the rebel king. When the rebel king comes, we won't pay taxes!"

"Kill the local tyrants, divide the land, and those who get the land will be able to stand on their own feet!"

Such things happened in every corner of Luoyang City.

These Jinyiwei were in Luoyang city all year round. They knew exactly where the common people, officials and wealthy merchants lived in the city, including the routes of patrolling soldiers, handover times, etc.

At this time, Prince Fu was still dreaming on the big human bed, with a pair of greasy hands, and no one knew where they were.

The next day, as soon as the sky turned pale, Chonglou walked to a secluded place, took out a firework and lit it.

"biu.......bang!"

The orange-red light, along with the sound of the explosion, instantly added a bit of color to the dawn.

Countless people heard the sound of fireworks and thought of the men in black at night. They quickly understood what was going on and opened their doors and looked towards the city gate.

When neighbors meet each other, they keep silent, but the expressions on their faces are surprisingly consistent.

Three parts fear and seven parts longing.

The news of the Qin army had already spread to Henan.

They plundered the wealthy merchants and corrupt officials, and distributed the land they obtained to the local people!

Then they burned all the government archives, leaving the imperial court powerless to recover them even if they wanted to!

Who doesn’t like free things?

As for the Yellow Book...

Ha ha!

Those were things from many years ago, and things and people have changed a lot since then!

Most importantly, Prince Fu was greedy and unjust, and often sent people to plunder the people in the city under various pretexts.

After the Qin army entered the city, if they could, as the legend said, not harm the people at all and even distribute the land equally to everyone, then why not do it?

Anyway, there are many such examples in Shaanxi and Shanxi, and I have never heard of any common people being punished after the event!

The fireworks were very loud, but the defenders and Prince Fu's Mansion did not take it seriously. In their opinion, perhaps it was a family marrying off their daughter or a family welcoming a bride, and there was nothing worthy of attention.

The beginning of the Chen hour.

The Qin army appeared silently outside the city of Luoyang.

The Jinyiwei rebelled, and the defenders in the city only realized something was wrong at this time.

A servant from Prince Fu's mansion rushed to Zhu Changxun and reported in panic.

"My Lord, it's bad! The enemy army is besieging the city!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Changxun stood up suddenly.

It's just his body type...

The man stood up, but the blood could not catch up. He suddenly felt dizzy and countless shining gold ingots appeared in front of his eyes.

Seeing his pale face, the chief secretary of the palace ran over and held him up.

But how could his frail body carry such a heavy mountain of flesh?

The next second, he was knocked to the ground by Prince Fu.

There was even a "puff" sound...

The guards and maids in front did not react until then, and rushed over to check.

Prince Fu's problem was not serious. He had a lot of fat, which provided enough shock absorption. Plus, with the support of the Chief Secretary underneath his body, he only suffered some minor scratches.

But the situation of the Chief Secretary was very frustrating.

The back of this guy's butt has been stained yellow, mixed with blood...

He was actually hit so hard that his intestines were pulled out!

A maid touched his breath and immediately stepped back a few steps with a scream.

"Liu, Liu, Liu Changshi is dead!"

Prince Fu shook his still dizzy head and didn't even look at the corpse beside him. Instead, he shouted loudly to the servant.

"quick!"

"Tell the city guard Duan Shu that if he dares to let the enemy troops into the city, I will skin him alive!"

At this moment, it’s not just Prince Fu who is panicking!

The Duan Shu he mentioned was the leader of the guards of Prince Fu's Palace. He had gathered his soldiers to the top of the city wall as quickly as possible.

Just looking at the dark mass of Qin troops outside the city, he didn't feel confident at all!

Chapter 325 Filling your stomach is the top priority!

Are there any defenders in Luoyang City?

Have!

As early as the founding of the country, Henan had three guards: Left, Right and Central. Among them, the Henan Central Guard was stationed in Luoyang.

In addition, due to Luoyang’s special geographical location, the Luoyang Central Guard was specially set up.

The royal palace has the right to transfer these garrisons.

But there is always a but in everything!

In the early years of Xuande, the three guards of Henan, Left, Right and Center, were successively assigned to Pengcheng Guard.

Subsequently, the Luoyang Central Guard was changed to Ruzhou Guard and moved to Ruzhou.

At present, apart from the royal guards, there are only three thousand soldiers defending the city.

The palace's personal army also numbered three thousand men.

In other words, the actual defense force of the huge city of Luoyang is only six thousand!

Not one more...

Not only that, these defenders have been living in comfort all year round, and almost none of them have actually been on the battlefield.

But outside the city, the massive Qin army numbered at least tens of thousands, and all of them were fierce bandits who had come all the way from Shanxi and Shaanxi. Duan Shu had no idea how to fight this battle!

When he heard the words sent by Prince Fu, he wanted to blurt out a thousand words in his mind, but after all, the other party was a prince and he was just the leader of the personal guards.

"Pass the order down. If the enemy army dares to get within three miles of the city wall, we will fire our artillery directly at them without asking for orders!"

"Also, go to the city and get those defeated soldiers who escaped from Songshan a few days ago!"

"Tell them that Luoyang is not a charity. Now that they are here, they have to help me!"

"If you dare to escape from the battlefield again, you will be killed without mercy!"

"Also, tell the people in the city that one man from each household should come up to help defend the city. Anyone who dares to disobey will be treated as collaborating with bandits!"

"Yes!"

The messenger clasped his fists and saluted, then turned and left.

As time went by, the defenders in the city gradually climbed up to the top of the city wall, ready to fight at any time.

Li Zicheng, who was outside the city, watched the actions on the top of the city wall without showing any sign of being anxious.

The sun climbed up the sky little by little. Gao Yigong sat on a rock beside him, picking his toes out of boredom.

"Master, when do we start?"

After saying this, he put the fingers that had just been tickled under his nose and sniffed them, with an intoxicated look on his face.

Li Zicheng took two steps to the side with disgust and waved his hand.

"No hurry, let them be busy for a while."

"Pass the order down, cook and fill your stomach. This is the top priority!"

After the order was given, the cooks became the busiest unit in the entire Qin army.

Inside the city, the civilians were driven out of their homes by the defenders and laboriously carried arrows, boulders, kerosene, artillery shells and other supplies for defending the city to the top of the city walls.

Perhaps it is because these defenders have been the bosses for too long, and even at this time, they still have no intention of restraining themselves.

Those who were slow in their work were either beaten or scolded.

Duan Shu, who was standing on the top of the city wall, turned a blind eye to it.

At 3 p.m., Li Zicheng smelled the aroma of wheat coming from behind him and looked up at the city of Luoyang in the distance.

With the help of the telescope, he clearly saw that the defenders on the city wall were still busy, so he grinned at Li Guo.

"Go tell the cooks to pack up a hundred baskets of freshly steamed buns and a few pots of stewed wild boar meat and send them to the city!"

"Send a message to the defenders of Luoyang City, telling them that these are gifts from me to the people in the city!"

Li Guo went downstairs to prepare immediately.

A moment later, he rode his horse down the hillside and headed straight for the city of Luoyang.

Wearing a set of shining silver armor and holding a silver spear in his hand, his aura surprisingly reminds people of Zhao Zilong of Changshan in the storybook!

He galloped all the way to the moat, riding his horse back and forth along the river bank, while shouting loudly to the top of the city wall.

"Listen, defenders on the city wall!"

"My king is kind and righteous. He can't bear to see the people working on an empty stomach, so he asked me to bring some food to them!"

"Hundreds of baskets of big white steamed buns and five wild boars that were stewed till they were soft!"

"You guys can open the door and take it later. When you finish eating, I will attack the city again!"
