Chapter 298 Out of control
"Master Taishi is not guilty, please release Taishi"
"Master Tai Shi is not guilty, Master Tai Shi is still our commander"
Suddenly, a noise came from outside.
Tuotuo's face sterned: "Xuexue, go and take a look, what are you doing outside?"
"We are not allowed to take Master Tai Shi away" shouts from outside are getting closer and closer.
The eunuch in charge of the eunuch was shocked. They did not expect that the eunuch who came to pass an imperial eunuch and took away Taishi Tuotuo would cause such a big trouble, especially the eunuch who had Hama's confidant, who had already received a secret order and tampered with the slaughter on the way to kill the Taishi.
This thought flashed into everyone's minds during the mutiny.
In recent years, the Taishi has occupied an important position in the entire court. The reason why the imperial court can stand firm is almost entirely due to the Taishi here. If the Taishi leaves, these hundreds of thousands of troops will be uncontrollable, it will probably be a disintegration. There is no one here who can prestige and conquer the public to command it, and everyone is not convinced by Tai Buhua and Xuexue.
"Master Tai Shi, there are soldiers outside. They don't want you to be immediately, and the situation may be out of control." Xuexue said in sweating profusely, her face turned pale.
Xuexue had never experienced such a scene. He did not expect how terrible it would be if the soldiers were fighting together.
Tutuo knew that these soldiers did not want to leave by themselves, and the generals present did not want to leave by themselves. As long as they raised their arms and shouted, the father-in-laws who came could not get out of here at all.
Do you want to do it yourself? Once you do it, it will be like breaking up with the court. Can you do that by yourself? No, absolutely not
Tuotuo made a serious mistake. If he went out to comfort the soldiers and stabilize the morale of the army, there would be no future events. However, he said to the eunuchs: "Let's go through the back door."
The eunuchs turned pale and walked out, leaving only the generals who were stunned on the spot.
What to do? What to do?
"Lord, there is something strange in Baoying City today." Luo Guanzhong entered and said.
"What's weird?" Zhang Yang asked.
"There are soldiers in the middle of the bustling situation, as if they are going to have a mutiny." Luo Guanzhong said.
Oh? This is a good opportunity Zhang Yang said, "Go out and have a look."
It was already dusk. Zhang Yang came to the trenches outside and looked at Baoying City under the afterglow of the sun. The inside was indeed extremely noisy.
I faintly heard some words from inside, such as the Grand Master who could not leave, and the like.
Zhang Yang listened and gradually understood what it meant. Just like the news from most people, the Tatars wanted to punish the Grand Master for his crimes. Alas, his achievements were so great that he was shocked.
However, Zhang Yang would not pity him. This is the opportunity he was waiting for.
"When it's dark, I'll send people to Baoying City from the tunnel and set fires everywhere, so that Baoying City will be in chaos, and all teams gather to prepare for battle."
"Yes" the generals looked happy. The battle was finally over. Gaoyou Mansion destroyed more than 100,000 Tartars, and this time they completely drove the Tartars out of Baoying City. From then on, no one dared to say no to the elder brother, and he rushed north and fought to Dadu. It was just around the corner.
"Master Xuexue, you just watched it and took the Grand Master away? Once the Grand Master left, how can we fight this battle? Now that the Grand Master is like this, most people are making trouble for the Grand Master to go back to Dadu like this, and there will be dangers," Alu said.
"What can I do? The Grand Tutor ordered us to wait for General Kuo's reinforcements to arrive. At that time, the army will be handed over to him to command. However, before that, Lord Tai and I will be the commander of the army." Xuexue said.
"No matter what you said, the Taishi has not gone far yet. I want to bring people to recover the Taishi."
"Rareless, you are a traitor"
"Halad was dead. I don't care if I die one more time. Listen to the call of the soldiers outside. As long as I shout, they will follow me without hesitation and rescue the Grand Master."
"Stop," Xuexue shouted: "Come here, take him down for me."
No one moved, and even the guards didn't listen to his orders.
The two sides were in a stalemate.
"Not good, no good." At this moment, a guard outside ran in panic: "Sir, the food and grass have caught fire."
The food and grass caught fire? All the generals stood up. This is not a trivial matter. If the food and grass were burned out, how could they fight this battle? Just pat the butt and leave.
"I'll go out and have a look." Alu was most anxious. His troops did not suffer any losses and served as the defense work of the entire Baoying City. This was also the reason why he dared to contradict Xuexue. Xuexue did not go to the front line and was a defeated general. She was still so arrogant. She thought that with his little master guards, she could do anything to him?
Xuexue's eyes narrowed into a slit. If all the food and grass were burned this time, he would immediately execute Alu for the crime of dereliction of duty and give others a look.
When Alu came out, he saw that it was not just the food and grass that was on fire, but there were fires everywhere, and the entire Baoying City was in chaos.
"Go and put out the fire quickly." Alu took his people straight to the grain warehouse in the east of the city.
"We want to meet the Grand Master," countless voices shouted.
It's time to do something, and I still want to make trouble. If there is no food tomorrow, I see if you still have the strength to make trouble
Some soldiers followed Alu to put out the fire, while others ran to the lobby, and they wanted to "recommend the military"
"We are the Taishi. The Taishi is not here, so we refuse to execute the orders."
The angry soldiers rushed inside, and the fire outside was not as good as the anger in their hearts.
Tutuo had quietly left the city, got on the carriage of the eunuchs when they came, and headed north under the escort of a small team of cavalry.
For some reason, the thieves who surrounded the city outside had disappeared.
Tutuo didn't know that Zhang Yang deliberately withdrew from the army in the north, just waiting for him to be captured, and there would be internal strife in Baoying City.
"Do you want to rebel?" Xuexue couldn't bear it anymore and stood up and shouted loudly. He was already blinded by anger. He looked at the group of soldiers under him and roared.
"Give us the Grand Master back"
"We want to meet the Grand Master"
"Bang, bang bang" Suddenly, a few muskets rang out, and the soldiers who rushed to the front fell down.
Xuexue looked at the guards on both sides of her. Only his subordinates were using three-eyed muskets.
The guards quickly shook their heads. It wasn't that they opened their own fire. There was no point in the twister.
But the soldiers didn't care about so many, and they actually dared to openly kill their brothers in front of them.
"Fight with him"
"Take our Grand Tutor"
The soldiers rushed forward.
In the darkness, a few pairs of eyes looked at all this, good, they finally started fighting
The infiltrated team began to play a role.
Tutuo did not expect that as soon as he left, the chaos began to begin in Baoying City.
With the desperate resistance of the guards, Xuexue got out of the crowd, and several guards had been torn to pieces.
Mutiny, terrible mutiny finally happened
At this time, the reinforcements led by Kuoku were only one day away from Baoying City. The situation would be completely different if Tutuo had to walk one day late.
Looking at the sky-sky fire in Baoying City, Zhang Yang smiled with satisfaction, and the obstruction of the Tartars was right in front of him.
"After half an hour, after the infiltration team comes back, all artillery fire will cover Baoying City," said Zhang Yang.
If the Tartars were tactful, the most important thing for them was to put out the fire immediately. As long as they were a normal officer, they should know that this was the most dangerous time for them and that they should be prepared for their own attack.
However, there were already no leader in the city, and Tutuo was taken away. He appointed two people to temporarily take over his position. These two people were unable to deal with these problems in time. The only hope was that Kuoku had not arrived yet, and the city was already in chaos.
"Boom, boom, boom" The artillery fire outside the city finally began to roar, and Zhang Yang's general attack began.
The first round of unexpected attacks completely stunned the defenders in the city. At this moment, even the lowest-class soldiers knew that the defeat of the entire army was unstoppable.
Only by escaping is a way out.
They chose to break through the city gate to the north at the same time.
Zhang Yang arranged two battalions of troops here to block the fleeing Tartars. At this moment, there were fires everywhere in the city. The crowds that came out were as easy to aim against the fires, just like during the day.
A dense rain of bullets killed the Tartars to death, and the rest returned to Baoying City again.
Midnight, Bian Yuanheng's navy finally arrived and joined the bombardment of Baoying City.
Under the powerful artillery fire, the entire Baoying City was shaking constantly and had become a hell on earth.
The continuous artillery fire bombarded for half an hour, and most of the Tartars in the city were killed and injured, while the rest raised the white flag and surrendered.
Zhang Yang looked at the white flag on the top of the city and felt mixed feelings. This was a major moment. Before that, the Tartars would raise the flag and surrender. After this incident was spread, it would severely hit the rule of the Yuan Dynasty and would become a turning point in the anti-Yuan struggle.
"Hurry, don't be afraid of exhausting the horse. Come on, hurry up. The Gaoyou Mansion is in an urgent situation, we have to support the Grand Tutor quickly." Kuokuo brought his elite soldiers, all of them were cavalry, and rushed towards Gaoyou Mansion at lightning.
When crossing the Yellow River, he wasted a little time. Kuogu learned that the Grand Master had retreated to Baoying, and his heart had already flown to Baoying City.
The Taishi was the support of the army of Kuokuo in the court. Although this army was raised by himself, the Taishi also played a great role behind him. Kuokuo's family was very grateful for the kindness of the Taishi. This time, the Taishi invited the support, and he immediately led the army southward.
Zhang Shicheng of Gaoyou Prefecture, Kuogu had long heard that this rebel who was dominated by the salt field and the people in the salt field had developed rapidly in the past two years and had become another shameful force to rebel against the court besides the Red Turban Army. However, due to the different defensive areas, Kuogu did not compete with them.
Kuogu has carefully studied this army, collected detailed information, and fought with this army head-on. It is unrealistic. The biggest feature of this army is that its long-range firepower is too fierce and can effectively kill the opponent three hundred steps away. One hundred steps is almost an unblockable dividing line.
This army is good at winning with less, and likes to dig trenches and build fortifications. They win repeatedly and are arrogant.
However, Kuogu keenly discovered the weakness of this army: its melee ability is not strong. If it rushes within a hundred steps, the army will choose to retreat to avoid getting into hand-to-hand combat.
Therefore, when dealing with this army, you must be good at using your strengths to attack the opponent's shortcomings. Kuogu already has some vague thoughts in his mind. Charging head-on with this army is a stupid suicide. Even if he can rush up, the casualties will be too great and not something he can bear. You should circumvent from the side, take advantage of the rapid maneuvering of the cavalry, and go around directly behind the opponent and stab in from the opponent's weakness.
"General, there is a convoy ahead, running quickly." The outpost came back and reported.
"Can you see clearly who is the person coming?" Kuogu asked.
To be continued...
