Chapter 866 Bloodbath
The rain was still heavy, there were very few pedestrians in front of the city gate, and there were only a few carriages waiting to enter the city. The soldiers guarding the city also looked miserable. It was really bad luck to be on duty in such a terrible weather...
The soldiers muttered impatiently, looking at the few carriages passing by and then waving their hands to let them go. Who has the patience to search carefully in this weather? Besides, although there are many people in Suzhou who can ride on carriages, the soldiers guarding the city have already developed a sharp eye. What kind of person can knock a few times and get a little money to buy a pot? When it comes to drinking alcohol, one must know exactly what kind of people must be let go immediately.
What's more, now that the world is peaceful, where do so many criminals come from?
The biggest incident in the past few years was the rebellion of the Shanyue people in Niuzhuji. However, they were killed by the black-faced Huating Town within a few days. The Shanyue people went into the mountains and beat them to death without coming out. How could they dare to come? Going wild in Suzhou City?
When the rumble of horse hoofbeats came to their ears, the soldiers looked up in surprise...
A group of cavalry with bright armor, like heavenly soldiers and generals from the sky, suddenly rushed out of the rain, their horse hooves splashed on the water on the road, adding to their murderous intent!
The soldiers were almost stunned with fright. What could you say? Could it be that there were rebels who wanted to attack Suzhou City? The duty of the soldiers guarding the city gate is to guard the city gate... But if they go out to stop it at this time, wouldn't they be seeking death? Looking at the murderous spirit of this team of knights, it is definitely not as simple as traveling around to visit relatives and friends...
The seven or eight soldiers guarding the city looked at each other, fighting, not knowing what to do.
However, the few carriages waiting to enter the city were quite clever and stepped aside early. The coachmen were leaning on the shafts of the carriages, trying not to attract attention.
The team of cavalry rushed in like lightning, sweeping through the sky with rain and fog, their iron hoofs clanking, and they rushed in through the open city gate like wind and lingering clouds. A waist tag flew up in the air and fell into the arms of a city guard. The soldier hurriedly caught it. In his ear, only one person heard a loud voice: "Royal Navy Headquarters, enter the city to capture the rebels. Don't disturb the city." Residents!”
The sound gradually faded away, covered up by the thunderous sound of hooves.
The soldier blinked, patted his chest and let out a long breath: "It turns out they are soldiers of the Royal Navy, under the command of the Chief Fang. It's better if they're not bandits, it's better if they're not bandits..." If thieves were allowed to break into the city like this, they would Don't even think about saving the lives of these few people. They neglect their duties and their heads will fall to the ground!
The little leader slapped him on the back of the head and cursed: "What a fart! How can the chief manager come from Ontario? Mobilizing troops into the city like this is a violation of military law. If he does anything excessive in the city, In the end, we can’t escape the relationship!”
"Ah? What should I do..."
All the soldiers were dumbfounded.
The Second Fang had a notorious reputation. If he mobilized the cavalry into the city with such a big fanfare, he might be trying to kill someone with blood.
Be a good boy, this is going to cost you your life!
The leader was still smart, so he grabbed a soldier with quick hands and feet, put the waist badge into his hand, and said: "Run to the state government office as quickly as possible to report the news. Remember, don't report directly. Instead of reporting it to the governor, he reported it to the clerk in the government office, saying that the soldiers of the Royal Navy entered the city on horseback, seeming to seek someone's bad luck..."
The soldiers were stunned for a long time, and the cavalry was just cavalry. What do you mean by soldiers riding into the city?
Besides, that aura is not looking for bad luck, he is clearly going to follow someone to fight with a white knife and a red knife!
The leader kicked his foot in anger and said angrily: "Why don't you go quickly? When the cavalry really does something big, we will be guilty of delaying military retribution. Do we still want our heads?"
"Oh oh oh, my subordinates will go right away, go right away..."
The soldier didn't know why, but the words "Do you want your head?" were too scary, so he didn't dare to ask more questions, so he ran towards the Yamen of the state government.
The leader had a sad look on his face: "What the hell is this house manager doing? He sent troops into the city. Isn't this too arrogant?"
Although he reacted quickly and described the cavalry rushing into the city as soldiers rushing into the city, the former is almost a serious crime of beheading, while the latter is a fault of lax military discipline. Of course, he didn't have any good intentions to cover up for the house manager, he was just trying to excuse himself.
Allowing the cavalry to charge into the city without stopping it, and the lawless and barbaric entry of the navy officers and soldiers into the city, are certainly not on the same level of fault...
Of course, all the prerequisites are that the navy officers and soldiers don't cause any big trouble. If the consequences are serious, all excuses will be useless and bad luck will follow.
These soldiers are destined to be unlucky. What is about to happen is not just a big event. It is not an exaggeration to say that it will shock the world!
*****
Suzhou in the rain is like a demure girl. The white walls and black tiles have been washed by the rain and become brand new. The pavilions and pavilions faintly exposed behind the high walls are ethereal in the mist, full of poetry and painting.
The bluestone street surface was washed clean and clear by the rain, and when the iron hooves stepped on it, it splashed water droplets and made a rumbling sound.
The silence of Suzhou City was broken by the sound of iron hoofs...
Hundreds of cavalrymen were rushing through the city in such a swaggering manner. Fortunately, there were only a few pedestrians on the streets in the rain, otherwise I don't know how many would have been knocked over by the horses and trampled by iron hooves. Xi Junmai pursed his lips, not caring about the several carriages knocked over and the pedestrians trampled along the way. The only thing in his heart was that the mission of this trip must be completed perfectly!
He came all night from Gu's Wubao, exhausting two horses all the way, just to capture all the Gu's old house as soon as possible. Otherwise, if someone from Wubao slips through the net and comes to report, it will bring great hidden dangers to Fang Jun.
At the critical moment, there are still many people and many aristocratic families who will side with the Gu family!
"Drive! Drive!"
Xi Jun kept whipping the horse, and its speed increased again and again.
After crossing several long streets, a large house appeared in front of them.
Xi Junmai lay on the back of the horse and gave an order loudly: "Ten people are in a group. Two groups will be surrounded by the back door. Two groups on the left and right will enter the courtyard and disperse. They will each guard the left and right courtyard walls to prevent anyone from climbing over the wall and escaping. The rest Follow me to attack the main gate, and I will kill all men, young and old without mercy.”
If we were to "frame" the Gu family before and eradicate the entire Gu family, there are still some moral scruples. After all, what's wrong with a child? But things are different now. The Gu family has concealed the former Sui Emperor, and is guilty of the crime of killing everyone in his family. Even if he doesn't kill him, he will sooner or later end up annihilating the three clans!
Today, His Majesty can tolerate anything but conspiracy and rebellion, which he absolutely cannot tolerate!
Let go and kill...
They were all well-trained elites. After Xi Junmai's order was given, the soldiers assigned tasks on horseback according to their respective formations. The neat team suddenly split into several groups and ran towards their respective goals.
Xi Junmai was riding on the horse, with one hand pulling out the horizontal sword, and the other hand holding the reins. He slightly pressed the horse's belly with his calves, and the horse stepped onto the third stone step. He raised his two front hooves and stepped hard on the thick black door. superior.
"Boom!"
The huge size of the war horse and the kinetic energy of the rushing horse made the door unable to bear the force, and the door latch broke with a bang, opening to both sides.
Dozens of horsemen rode in through the open gate, their swords raised high, and they killed everyone they saw!
Xi Junmai went straight to the main hall with a few soldiers.
This group of elite soldiers who looked like wolves and tigers let go of their hands and feet, and they were as cruel and ruthless as the gods of killing came to the world!
A sudden disaster occurred in the old house of the Gu family. Before they could even react to what was going on, countless men were massacred on the spot.
Screams, screams, curses, crying, roars, the neighing of war horses...
The Gu family's old house is like a hell on earth!
The soldiers' eyes were cold and murderous!
They are butcher's knives, they don't need to have their own thoughts and pity, military orders are like mountains, they just need to kill non-stop!
And Xi Junmai witnessed with his own eyes the countless slaves who were imprisoned and tortured by the Gu family in the reed marshes by the sea in Wuyuan Town. Why should mercy and mercy be shown to such a heartless family? No matter how cruel it is to be with the Gu family, it’s no exaggeration!
In the main hall, a wealthy old man was shocked to hear that thieves had broken into the house. He hurried out in fear and anger. When he saw the oncoming knight on horseback, he said angrily: "Why do thieves dare to break into my Gu family's old house? I'm so tired of living." What happened..."
Xi Junmai didn't even look at his stern face, but he charged forward on horseback and swung the horizontal sword in his hand.
The sword flashed and the head fell to the ground...
No more for today, good night everyone.
