Chapter 461 The Age of Young People(1/2)

.  , Spring returns to the Ming Dynasty

The first Liu Xin, who rushed out of the back door, happened to face the patrolling business group. He was holding a short gun and a sword in his hand and looked at each other with the person who was playing lanterns on the opposite side.

The next moment, the fire in the south shines.

Then they looked at the direction of Guide Gate Water Gate in amazement.

The city walls there were arching upwards in the fire, as if a giant python had arched its back, but it suddenly collapsed like it was exhausted. This scene looked extremely spectacular on the background of the night.

Then before they could react, the earth-shaking explosion hit their eardrums.

"Old He, why don't you go for reinforcements!"

Yu Qi behind him roared.

The man holding the lantern woke up instantly...

"Run quickly, the city is broken!"

He screamed.

Then he ran without hesitation and ran away.

Then the patrol subordinates also ran with him and fled.

"Well?"

Liu Xin and others behind were all stunned. They just watched these guys disappear in the streets and alleys in amazement.

Liu Xin woke up quickly.

"Hurry, go to the Ministry of War!"

He yelled.

Then they ran wildly towards the Ministry of War.

At the same time, the shouts of killing came from the south, and the people in the city were frightened by the explosion and ran out. The originally empty streets were filled with crowds of people screaming in a blink of an eye.

In this case, the gentry patrols in the city also collapsed. Some were running away, some were rushing to reinforce in the water gate, and some were at a loss. At this time, there were already tens of thousands of defenders in the inner city of Guangzhou. Except for a total of only two or three thousand merchant groups, the others were all messed up by the gentry near Guangzhou. They were also patrolling and maintaining order in the city. After all, the gangs have higher combat effectiveness, and it is hard to say what happened to them, so they were asked to maintain order in the city and keep a close eye on the unruly people.

This is very important.

Now the Lords regard the prevention of unruly people as the top priority.

Many of these people even arrived and knew nothing about the situation of the city's civil war. Suddenly, they collapsed immediately when they encountered such a big explosion.

However, the merchant group on the city wall performed very well and did not collapse after the explosion.

Because the explosion was insufficient, the city wall did not blow up to the sky, but only created a collapse at the water gate, forming an obvious gap.

But the business group suffered very little losses.

Then they rushed to the near the gap and began to throw grenades downward to block the attack.

After all, they were all raised by real money. These business groups were not locals, but were all thugs raised by Li Tingji and other families. Currently, these Fujian officials in the imperial court do this. Among the officials, there are family business names in Guangzhou. Their thugs are all brought from Fujian, and their nature is basically the same as family servants. In the past, business has to have enough force. Although they are incomparable to the real army, they are well-equipped and familiar with martial arts. Small-scale combat is not bad.

I just don't understand the military formation.

Moreover, these people are not from tenants and serfs, but are actually employed by dynamic people in society.

They don’t have much expectations for dividing the fields, after all, they are too lazy to cultivate the fields for them.

But this ensures the most basic loyalty.

Even if this loyalty is actually just able to hold on in a battle of pecking at the advantage of territories, it has already satisfied the Lords and the others.

Their demands are really humble.

Just don’t turn against each other!

At this time, the performance of the merchant regiment exceeded their expectations. The explosion of Watergate did not cause them to collapse. Instead, it quickly woke up from the impact of the explosion, and then launched a real fierce battle with the militia trying to invade at the gap.

However……

What they didn't know was that in the chaotic city behind them, a group of people were conducting beheading operations.

"Get out of here, we're going to reinforce!"

In the chaotic crowd, Yu Qi shouted with a short gun.

"Shopkeeper Yu, go to the south to reinforce, you ran away!"

Not far away, a Fujian official who was familiar with him shouted at them through the crowd, obviously he really thought that this guy was going to reinforce. Yu Qi's public identity was the shopkeeper of a Jiangxi business, and he had been doing business here for many years. He had a lot of business dealings with Fujian merchants, including this official family. However, Yu Qi was still mingling with Liu Xin and others in the escaped crowd and headed north together. The official wanted to go there but was blocked by the crowd.

"This dog is running away, and the Jiangxi people are indeed unreliable!"

He said angrily.

He did not notice that the Ministry of War is not far north.

Yu Qi looked back and found that the guy led the soldiers south to reinforce, and continued to rush forward with the crowd with satisfaction.

The defense was already being deployed outside the Ministry of War's Office in front. A chief rushed out with a short gun and directed the soldiers guarding here to push out two field artillery to prevent the escaped people from attacking the Ministry of War's Office. The trick of Wanli's cannon suppression of evil inspires the Lords. Now there are cannons everywhere in the yamen. After all, once the unruly people make trouble, cannons are obviously the most effective means of suppression.

"Don't panic, the rebels have not yet entered the city!"

This obviously Guangdong person's chief shot into the sky and yelled.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Qi and others rushed out...

"Master Li, the young man comes to serve with his brothers!"

Yu Qi shouted.

"Okay, sure enough..."

Before Master Li finished speaking, Liu Xin rushed out behind Yu Qi, and just shot him, and then ran forward wildly.

The bullet hit Li Zhengshi's chest. The unlucky Master Li looked at him in shock, then fell backwards. Before he even fell completely, Liu Xin came to the front and pushed him.

At the same time, Liu Xin's subordinates opened fire one after another, and the defenders opposite were in chaos. They were caught off guard. Most of them fell down. Just when a gunner first reacted and was about to adjust the gun, Liu Xin, holding the sword, came to him and stabbed him into the chest with a sword. Then he rushed over and rushed to the remaining soldiers with his sword, and pierced them one by one in the panic escape. In the astonished eyes of the people, Liu Xin turned the gun without hesitation, picked up the ignition rod and stuck it into the ignition hole, and the cannon sprayed flames at the closed gate of the military.

Although there were shotguns inside, the force of dozens of shotguns hitting the door suddenly pushed open.

The soldiers closing the door behind screamed and fell down.

Then Liu Xin, who was running wildly, jumped over him and rushed in, and the subordinates behind him rushed straight to the Ministry of War.

"Young people are different!"

Yu Qi, who had always been slow to react, leaned beside the door, watched his subordinates rushing over, and then sighed with a heavy breath.

By the way, he has neglected training in Guangzhou over the years and can no longer keep up with the speed of these young people.

"What are you looking at? Li Tingji and other traitors imprisoned Long Live Master. We are trying to save the car. I don't want Long Live Master to ruin the good days he gave you. So follow us!"

He shouted to the people behind him.

"Who knows what you Jiangxi guy said is true or false?"

"Master Lu also said that you are rebelling from other provinces!"

...

No one followed the people.

Although many of them know Yu Qi and know that this Jiangxi people are very trustworthy in doing business, they still cannot believe in this kind of thing. After all, they are also from other provinces. In fact, they are like this these days. Except for Yang Feng, who is obviously not ordinary, otherwise if you want to encourage local people, you must first avoid people from other provinces, and even from other provinces, counties and townships.

This is also the reason why even if Fu Zonglong and others mobilized the imperial village, they could only achieve this result.

No matter how they say they are, they are from other provinces.

"If you love to follow or not!"

Yu Qi said.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand to knock down a counterattack soldier, and then entered the door as fast as possible. Just as the soldiers rushed over, they quickly closed the door with two subordinates. With the sound of cannons outside, they rushed towards Liu Xin and others. The latter had already entered the second gate, and there was a main hall inside. An official was rushing out with a dozen soldiers. When he saw Liu Xin, he was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered to raise his gun and aim. Liu Xin's short gun instantly flew out of his face.

He screamed and pulled the trigger. The bullet passed over Liu Xin's head, and the latter immediately hit him, and the sword in his hand instantly penetrated into his throat.

Other soldiers pulled the trigger in chaos.

Several intelligence officers fell down, but the rest flocked to the same as Liu Xin, and then stabbed the soldiers with their swords.

This kind of bravery scared the remaining soldiers so much that they turned around and ran away.

Liu Xin rushed into the main hall, where he should have been discussing matters before, but at this time the officials and men had already escaped.

Of course, I must have fled to the back.

He passed by...

"Houya, go to Houya!"

Yu Qi was chasing, gasping for breath and shouting behind him, pointing at the gate of a month.

He rushed to the Moon Gate immediately, but at this time, there were only twenty intelligence officers who followed him. It was not that the others were all dead, most of them were actually injured, and there were still a few at the Second Gate. At this time, the soldiers outside had already opened the door with another cannon and chased in. However, Yu Qi closed the second gate, leaving a few more defenses. The outside could not enter for a short time, and Liu Xin immediately rushed into the Moon Gate. As soon as he entered, he saw several red-robed figures disappear in the room in front of him.

He immediately ran towards the place.

After chasing another door, he had already seen the target clearly.

A total of four officials in red robe were trotting, and the leader was Lu Longyun. He pulled out the second short gun that had never been used and aimed at Mr. Lu and pulled the trigger.
