Chapter 820 Defection (Last Part)

The enemy has become a turtle in the jar, which makes Yin Fei particularly excited.

After seeing the combat power of Li Ling's guards from afar, he was still worried that the Wuchang defenders he led could surpass them. But now, with several times the force of the troops, the situation is completely different.

In order to make this contribution, he did not hesitate and immediately ordered an attack: "All the generals obey the orders, kill them, don't swear!"

"Kill!" The city guards had known the wishes of their governors, and Wen Ling did not hesitate at this time. He shouted and raised his weapons and attacked the imperial guards surrounded by Gai Center like a wave. The spears flew and the quick knife slashed, as if they could swallow their opponents in a blink of an eye.

But the imperial guards did not see any panic at all. They decisively set up a defensive round formation with shields in front and spears behind, and in a blink of an eye, they blocked this seemingly fierce attack. Under Zhang Jing's calm command, there were more than a hundred people who were separated to rush forward fiercely and killed Yin Fei.

This made him very angry: "I'm so brave. At this time, I dare to resist stubbornly. The troops obey orders and surround them and kill them!"

However, when his military order was issued, the troops of the third battalion, which had been encircled on all sides, were still silently surrounded there, as if the battle here had nothing to do with them. While this scene made Yin Fei unable to come to Taiwan, he immediately became suspicious: "This... sir..." He looked at Jiang Guixun behind him.

A little doubt flashed in Jiang Guixun's eyes, but then he thought of something. Haha, he raised the order talisman in his hand and shouted: "The Wuchang army obeys the orders, and there must be no mistakes in surrounding and killing these traitors and rebels!" This must be because they had received strict orders early in the morning and only followed the orders of the governor, and other military orders would be ignored. Doesn't this mean that they have control over the overall situation?

Sure enough, with his order, the 20,000 troops who had been still in the siege began to press into the middle, from the dozens of feet just now to tens of feet to tens of feet. However, although the garden covers a large area, it is still much worse than the position needed by tens of thousands of troops. Therefore, this siege also surrounded thousands of defenders including Governor Chiang in the center.

Of course, he wouldn't care too much about this, and immediately ordered: "Kill them all!"

Yin Fei also waved the order flag and ordered his subordinates to kill again. The first achievement of defeating the enemy would naturally fall into his hands. His subordinates also mustered up the courage again and rushed forward fiercely. Then, they were blocked by the official troops pressed from both sides.

The dozens of people who rushed the most urgently were blocked by a hard shield and were directly penetrated by a spear, screaming and falling into a pool of blood.

This sudden scene not only caused the soldiers guarding the city who wanted to rush again to terrorize and stop, but also caused Jiang Guixun, Yin Fei and others to change their expressions. At this point, no matter how optimistic they were, they would not think that the tens of thousands of soldiers in front of them were really under their control.

"Are you going to rebel?" In a panic, Yin Fei was already furious and shouted loudly. The answer was Li Ling's calm voice among the army ahead: "It's you who want to rebel. They are just following my order to quell the rebellion and kill the thieves!"

As the words fell, the flags in the crowd waved, and the originally silent army suddenly roared: "Kill!" accompanied by the roar, there was the sudden movement of the team's sudden pressure, and the weapons in their hands that were ready to go.

Bang bang bang-puff puff-swish-swish-swish-swish-

All the weapons were swung neatly, and they greeted the defenders who had been shocked, and they screamed and screamed in pain. The others turned their heads and ran away in a scream. After completely chaotic, they were blocked by thousands of soldiers and horses that had already set up defensive formations in front of them.

"Put down your weapons and those who do not move on the ground can survive!" The same words fell on them this time. Before these officers and soldiers could express their retribution so quickly, they obediently dropped the weapons in their hands, knelt on the ground, and their heads were on the ground, unable to even look at the surrounding situation.

These Wuchang defenders had little combat power. At this time, they were deeply trapped in desperate situations and surrounded on all sides, so they naturally had no courage to fight. So there was no need to say too much, or they killed a few people to serve as a warning to others, and they all surrendered.

This battle comes quickly but ends faster!

The officers and soldiers knelt down, and in the end, only Governor Jiang and others were left, as well as the twenty or thirty guards beside them, standing upright. But around them, there were the officers outside the city that could not be seen at a glance. Everyone's swords and guns were aimed at them, and as long as there was another order, they could be cut into pieces.

These guards were quite loyal and did not abandon their lords at this time. However, the weapons in their hands were trembling because of panic in their hearts, and obviously they had lost the courage to fight. As for Governor Jiang, among them, his face turned pale and his body was trembling. In addition to panic, he was more confused and muttered: "How could it be..."

Yes, how could it be? He is obviously the master of Wuchang, and he has arranged everything, but why did such earth-shaking changes occur in the moment of victory? He should be the winner himself, and how could he become the most tragic loser?

He couldn't figure it out, and he was even more unconvinced! Finally, he turned his eyes to Li Ling in the middle of the team ahead, and saw him smiling and looking at him, then glanced at him, then clasped his fists outside and said, "Chengzhi, you really didn't disappoint me!"

"Hahaha... I'm just looking for a few people and saying a few words. It's really nothing. If I really have to work hard, I have to thank our governor and those greedy commanding generals. If they hadn't been doing things against each other over the years, the soldiers of various battalions in Wuchang would have been dissatisfied. It would be impossible for me, Xiao Chengzhi, to open my mouth alone!"

While speaking, a young general with a slightly thin body, dark skin, but full of momentum walked out with a helmet and armor. Behind him, three generals with the same armor and a silent and black face followed him. Just a glance, Jiang Guixun recognized their identities: "Cheng Gu, Fan Yuanhai, Fu Zhedong... It's you, you are making trouble behind the scenes and ruining my big deal!"

These three people held important positions in their own military camps, but they were suppressed by the command post of the chief general. Over the years, although they have a great reputation and are loved by soldiers, they are never allowed to make a comeback. After all, they are excluded because they are too principled and refuse to join the adults. They are rarely beneficial.

But in today's battle, the troops and horses of the third battalions outside Wuchang City were all commanded by them, which obviously means that their superiors have lost power in this incident, and even their lives may not be able to be saved!

Faced with Jiang Guixun's accusations, the three of them remained silent. Xiao Chengzhi smiled and said, "Who is this blame? It's not because you are too greedy and harsh on your subordinates that you have today's fruit. I just had wine with Lao Fan in the capital several times. When I persuaded him, he still stood on my side, and he also pulled these two real military generals to me."

A few sarcastic words had completely solved the doubts in Governor Jiang's heart, but they also made him even more angry. Who would have thought that Li Ling was so insidious that he had sent people to secretly contact the soldiers and generals in Wuchang early on, and even turned against them in one fell swoop...

In fact, this is where Li Ling dared to attack Wuchang at this time.

After taking Gu Sizhu and others in Suizhou, he carefully interrogated all the details of the Wuchang official army, while starting to plan how to eliminate the biggest worm. Through some detailed explanations, Li Ling decisively grasped a little flaw - the arrogant and greedy Jiang Guixun thought that everything in Wuchang was in his own hands, and perhaps he was quite respectful to the officials of the court, but he was extremely strict with the people below, especially with an equally greedy governor Yin Fei, the life of the Wuchang army was very difficult, which was just slightly better than the disaster-stricken people.

How could Li Ling let such a big loophole go?

In addition, after meeting with Xiao Chengzhiyu on the way to Wuchang, he learned from him that he had some friendship with Fan Yuanhai, a deputy general of Liuzi Camp, he immediately made the decision to instigate the opponent.

So when I came to Wuchang all the way, all the guards fell into the hands of Zhang Jingzhi, who was the deputy general of the imperial guards, just because Xiao Chengzhi was ordered to take the lead and contact Fan Yuanhai, and told him to change his course!

Fan Yuanhai was already dissatisfied with his own head and generals. Although the other party was valued by Governor Jiang and he had not gained much benefits on weekdays, except for his confidants, almost all other soldiers in the same camp were not deducted from his military pay. As long as someone showed dissatisfaction, he would forcefully suppress it and severely punish the military law. Over time, the camp had already complained.

Now that the imperial envoy was responsible and relevant guarantees were related, Fan Yuanhai naturally did not hesitate at all and responded in one go, and at the same time he also attracted the other two generals in the same situation.

So last night, the following major changes occurred almost at the third battalion outside Wuchang City. The three commanders and dozens of their confidants were killed, and the troops of the third battalion fell into the hands of the three of them.

Therefore, when the city today sent an order to cooperate with the attack on the imperial envoy team and surrounded Xianchunyuan, it was actually calling Li Ling's foreign aid into the city.

Sure enough, as they revealed their true identity, Governor Jiang's conspiracy completely failed. All they could do at this time was to scold Li Ling for being despicable and shameless, Fan Yuanhai and others for being ungrateful.

At this point, the planned Wuchang Rebellion finally came to its end.
