Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 242: Thirty-six
While Zhu Gaojiu led his troops to retreat, Gui Bugui had returned to the capital. After seeing the miracle of the old guy, the soldiers guarding the city gate began to cheer. Originally thought that this time defending the city would definitely die, but after seeing the incarnation of the incarnation of the fireball, most of the people who burned the Yan army escaped with their buttocks bare. These soldiers also felt that there was nothing to defend the city. With such old gods protecting the capital, let alone defending the city. It is not difficult to beat Zhu Di back to Beiping City, or even to say that this anti-king was captured alive.
At the moment, the story of Gui Bugui's retreat and being pioneered by the Yan Army spread from the city gate. After dawn, this legendary story spread all over the city from the east gate. After dozens of stories, it was said that Guibugui fought Zhu Gaojiu for three hundred rounds, and then Guibugui invited Emperor Dongyue to possess him. , with the help of divine power to repel Zhu Gaojiu's 100,000 elite soldiers. In the evening, some storytellers and artists in the capital began to broadcast this mythical story. Listening to the people's fascination, they all thought that the capital was blessed by gods and would definitely turn defeat into victory.
Just when the people in the capital thought they were safe to defend the city, horses from the four cities in the east, west, north, south, and south reported messages to the capital at the same time. The Yan army's 300,000 horses had already dominated Nanjing City, and the four cities received the Yan army's flying arrows at the same time. The four letters were all written by Yao Guangxiao, a staff member of King Yan, and the content of the letters is still to say that King Zhu Di of Yan's peace was in order to eliminate the traitorous villains around the emperor. Not to rebel. The emperor asked the emperor to tie up more than 300 people led by Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, open the city gate and send them to the camp of the Yan army. As long as King Yan caught these traitors who disturbed the emperor, he would immediately withdraw his troops from Peiping...
After reading the four letters one after another, the little emperor handed them over to Wu Mian and Gui Bugui. After laughing for a while, Zhu Yunwen said: "I took a rough look, and the more than 300 people in the letter are almost all officials above the sixth rank in the capital. If these people are handed over, there will be no generals and commanders. Guarding the city, there are no officials to appease the people in Beijing. Does this allow me to personally go to the city gate to command the soldiers to defend against the enemy?"
When he said this, the little emperor smiled and then continued: "However, the handwriting of the evil monk is quite good. The notes of the four letters are almost identical, as if they were printed on a woodblock."
"This monk was very good at writing seal characters back then, and was only favored by the great master Xu Fu." Gui Bugui smiled and continued to Zhu Yunwen, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this is just the monk's scheming. I still don't give outsiders a pretext for rebelling. Once Your Majesty's determination is not enough, and you agree to the conditions in the letter, then Your Majesty will self-destruct the Great Wall..."
When he said this, the old guy paused for a while, then glanced at Wu Mian with a smile. After trying a wink at the white-haired man, he continued with a smile: "Since King Yan has put forward conditions, then His Majesty should also bargain..."
While speaking, Gui Bugui asked the little **** who was waiting on the side to fetch a pen and paper. After writing a few words on it, he put what he wrote in front of the little emperor, and then continued: "This is the price that the old man paid for His Majesty. His Majesty thinks this price is fair and unfair..."
When Gui Bugui was speaking, the little emperor had already seen what the old guy had written. See above, in the emperor's tone, it was said that more than 300 people were the sum of the officials of the entire capital, and they could not be handed over to King Yan, but Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng and other 36 people could still be handed over. If King Yan agrees with these thirty-six people, then at Hai tonight, the emperor will hand over these thirty-six people to the Yan army for disposal. I hope that King Yan can withdraw his troops after paying the foreword after getting these thirty-six people...
After reading what Gui Bugui wrote, the little emperor took another look at Wu Mian, who was expressionless. He understood in his heart what the old guy was going to do, and after a slight smile, he first asked the **** to put his seal on it, and then called the Minister of War, who was waiting in the palace, and asked him to send the letter to the outside of the city. in the Yan army camp.
Not long after, the defenders of Ximen once again brought a letter from the Yan army. It was stated above that King Yan had agreed, and Hai Shi received these 30 court officials at Ximen. As long as the identities of these 36 people can be verified, the 300,000 Yan army will withdraw before dawn. At that time, the Yangtze River was still the boundary, and Zhu Di's army withdrew to Jiangbei and treated him with the courtesy of his officials.
After receiving Yan Jun's reply, Jin Yiwei began to arrest people in the capital. Thirty-six people on the half-day kung fu list have all been captured, and after being tied up, they were all escorted to the vicinity of Ximen. After waiting until Hai Shi, the west gate opened, and Zheng Jun, who held the real power of Jinyiwei, led fifty Jinyiwei and escorted thirty-six out of the west gate. Then came to the location of the Ximen Yan army camp...
At this time, the West Camp is already brightly lit. The prince of Yan, Zhu Gaochi, took a hundred guards to personally accept the thirty-six officials at the gate of the camp. After personally verifying their identities, Zhu Gaochi smiled at Zheng Jun and said, "Speaking of which, Lord Zheng Jun is also the three hundred officials. On the list of people, I can't think that such an adult would dare to lead the team in person, Gao Chi admires the courage of the adult..."
"Your Majesty personally assigned Zheng Jun to act only on orders." After Zheng Qianhu replied without being humble or arrogant, he continued to Zhu Gaochi: "His Royal Highness Yan said, as long as these thirty-six criminals are sent here, The 300,000-strong army is about to withdraw. Now that the thirty-six criminals have been sent, I wonder when His Royal Highness King Yan will take the army and leave the camp?"
"This needs to be checked by His Royal Highness King Yan himself." Zhu Gaochi shook his fat face and smiled, then continued: "Also beware of whether there is that great cultivator who performed illusions and stunned our eyes and ears. Let some irrelevant people pay for those culprits..."
After speaking, Zhu Gaochi smiled at Zheng Jun, revealing his little white teeth that didn't match his fat. He winked at the guard on the side, and then saw the guard take out the long incense that had already been prepared. He lit the incense in front of Zheng Jun and everyone, and walked back and forth around the thirty-six people with the incense in his hand.
Seeing that the smoke from Changxiang enveloped the thirty-six people, Zhu Gaochi stared at the faces of the people in front of him. As long as there was a slight change, the guards beside him would slash and kill. Then, on the pretext that the emperor was being held hostage by the villains, an army of 300,000 men stormed the four city gates at the same time. In one go, he took the capital directly.
However, the smoke completely enveloped the thirty-six prisoners, and none of them were found to be transformed by illusion. Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, Changxiang was the magic weapon that Yao Guangxiao personally gave him to crack Wu Mian's illusion. The monk himself said that as long as there is a long incense tool, any illusion can be hidden. Could it be that the little emperor Zhu Yunwen really went out of his way this time and sent the thirty-six capable ministers under his command in exchange for his own safety?
Just when Zhu Gaochi was puzzled, Zheng Jun, who was standing on the sidelines, said, "His Royal Highness, which one do you think was transformed by illusion? Say that Zheng Jun will end them for you..."
"Lord Zheng Jun is joking, Gao Chi is just verifying the identity of the thirty-six people for His Royal Highness King Yan." After Zhu Gaochi smiled, he let the guard put out the long incense. Then he had the thirty-six people taken over from Jin Yiwei, and then personally led Zheng Jun, escorting these important officials of the court towards the direction of King Yan's camp.
After passing through Zhu Gaochi's former camp, Zhu Gaochi took Zheng Jun to the gate of King Yan's camp. He notified the guards at the gate of the camp, and soon afterward, a guard came to search him. Take away the sabres on Zhu Gaochi and Zheng Jun, and then search the thirty-six criminals. After confirming that none of them carried weapons, King Yan's personal soldiers took the thirty-six criminals to the camp of King Yan together with Zhu Gaochi and Zheng Jun...
After entering the camp, I saw that King Yan Zhu Di was discussing with the monk Yao Guangxiao how to attack the capital. I heard that my son brought the thirty-six criminals on the list to accept the crime. After Zhu Di sneered, he said, "Don't look at it, the thirty-six people are all puppet stand-ins, so kill them all... In two hours, the three armies will begin to attack the four city gates..."
