Chapter 340 Regicide(1/2)
The warriors raised their swords and began to charge.
Although the two men under Duan Shao were using their bare hands, they could rely on their agility to avoid the opponent's attacks and constantly avoid the crowd.
Duan Shao walked to Gao Wei step by step.
Gao Wei wanted to escape in a panic, but several old scribes were kneeling not far away, trembling with fear. He looked around, but couldn't see any useful weapons, so he could only reach for the inkstone.
As soon as he reached out, a thick and strong hand grabbed his arm.
Gao Wei raised his head, and Duan Shao lifted him up, grabbing his neck with both hands, like lifting a chicken.
Duan Shao preferred to be a commander, not a general who relied on personal bravery. However, not being known as brave is not a sign of weakness.
With Gao Wei and villains like him, it is not that easy to kill the armored Duan Shao.
When Duan Shao started to grab his neck and lift himself into the air, Gao Wei felt fear.
He kicked his legs hard and cried, "I know my mistake! I know my mistake!! Please forgive me, Da Sima! Forgive me!!"
Duan Shao grabbed him, held him in his arms, and stared at the warriors angrily.
"Put down your weapons and kneel down!!"
As his hand continued to exert force, Gao Wei also shouted, "Didn't you hear Da Sima's words?! Let go! Let everyone go!!"
The warriors looked at Gao Wei hesitantly, not daring to move forward.
"Take away their weapons!"
Duan Shao ordered again, and the two warriors who had followed him came forward, snatched away their weapons, and forced them to kneel on the ground.
Someone hurriedly went out to call someone.
Lu Lingxuan sat on the ground blankly. This sudden change made her instantly frightened and at a loss.
Within the scope allowed by the rules, Lu Lingxuan did an excellent job. By relying on the emperor and strengthening her voice, she gained the support of many people in the court. However, this monster in the court was unruly.
When the rules fail, the fight becomes only a pure physical collision and a sword-to-sword fight.
Under this new rule, Lu Lingxuan has no advantage.
She looked at Gao Wei, who was wrapped around his neck by Duan Shao, and hurriedly got up, rushed forward and tore at Gao Wei, trying to pull him out, "Da Sima, let go first, you first"
Duan Shao raised his fist and punched her in the face. How could Lu Lingxuan afford such a punch? She shook her head and fell to the ground.
Looking at Lu Lingxuan who fell to the ground, Duan Shao glanced at her and whispered: "As a woman, since you are wearing the official uniform of a servant, I will treat you the same way I treat you as a servant."
Gao Wei was frightened at this moment.
The development of things deviated greatly from what he expected.
That day, he saw the hesitant looks in the soldiers' eyes, which made him have other thoughts. He didn't listen to Lu Lingxuan's words. Liu Taozi was far away in the horizon, while Duan Shao was nearby.
In front of you.
He immediately summoned his warriors to discuss the matter.
But neither the warrior Han Changluan, who was deeply blessed by him, nor Hou Lufen, who was promoted to the position of leading general by him, were unwilling to take action against Duan Shao.
These soldiers, who were deeply trusted by him, did not dare to attack Duan Shao, and even used their lives to dissuade the emperor from this crazy idea.
It's a bit scary to think about killing Duan Shao in Jinyang.
Duan Shao is not Yu Wenhu. Among all the soldiers in Jinyang who have not fought with him or received favors from him, it is another question whether they can be killed. Even if they are killed, will the people in the city still let the murderer go?
Are you afraid that you are going to directly attack the palace in the name of revenge for Da Sima?
What's more, in this world right now, who else can stop Liu Taozi except Duan Shao?
How stupid to kill Duan Shao!
But Gao Wei never cared about this.
He just resented that these people refused to listen to him, so he used those villains who were temporarily promoted to solve Duan Shao through them.
He originally wanted to attack and kill Duan Shao, then frame him for others, and then appease the Jinyang army.
However, the development of things suddenly turned around, and Duan Shao, who was over fifty years old, still maintained a good fighting ability.
He could only keep begging for mercy, "Da Sima, it was all what others ordered me to do. It has nothing to do with me! It has nothing to do with me!"
Duan Shao's hand exerted force again. Gao Wei was speechless, his face turned red, and he struggled hard.
The soldiers outside rushed into the hall.
The first one to rush in was Han Changluan, the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army.
Han Changluan had demonstrated considerable martial prowess when he was young, and served as Gao Wei's bodyguard before he came to power.
Gao Wei valued him very much, so he promoted him to be the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army, and then made him the king, and then the leading general. Of course, now everyone is a leading general.
Holding a knife in his hand, he looked at the kidnapped emperor, and couldn't help but look at Duan Shao, sweating profusely.
Did the emperor really do it??
He already knew this would be the result!
Looking at the hesitant Han Changluan, Duan Shao immediately frowned and yelled: "A Feng, do you dare to point your sword at me?!"
The sword in Han Changluan's hand immediately fell to the ground. Han Changluan's grandfather Han Xian was Duan Shao's old comrade-in-arms and his father Han Yi had been Duan Shao's subordinate.
He didn't dare to step forward or retreat.
But there were more and more sergeants behind him.
Duan Shao looked at them and said, "Afeng, go tell the generals in the country and ask them to come to the palace to discuss important matters!!"
Han Changluan hesitated, Duan Shao glanced at him again, Han Changluan turned around and left.
Gao Wei wanted to speak, but his neck was so broken that it was difficult to breathe, and he was about to die. Seeing that Gao Wei was about to move, Duan Shao relaxed slightly, allowing Gao Wei to breathe heavily. Once it passed,
After getting tired, he tried again.
Gaowei's lower clothes were completely wet, and his whole body was constantly changing in the cycle of life and death.
When the noise outside became more and more noisy, Duan Shao finally let go of him, grabbed his shoulders, and dragged him out of the hall.
Outside the main hall, two groups of sergeants were confronting each other.
The Imperial Guards were facing each other tit for tat with the soldiers under Duan Shao's command. They had already drawn their weapons and were about to charge together at the next moment.
After Duan Shao appeared, the leader of Duan Shao's soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly shouted: "Master!! We have sent people to inform the generals!! The palace has been surrounded!!"
After hearing these words, the Forbidden Army was obviously a little scared and at a loss.
Duan Shao didn't say anything, he just stood at the top and looked coldly into the distance.
Soon, armored generals rushed in from a distance, and more and more sergeants filed in.
Their purpose was very clear, and they were running towards Duan Shao's direction all the way.
Gao Wei was now in Duan Shao's hands. After going through the cycle just now, he no longer had any strength at all. He was almost dragged by Duan Shao and could not stand up.
The generals who came are all powerful generals from Jinyang. At a glance, they are all princes, and the last ones are leading generals. There are several great generals alone.
Shediluo looked excitedly at Duan Shao who had caught the emperor, with a different kind of light shining in his eyes.
He looked at the generals around him, and they all had joy in their eyes.
They have been looking forward to such a day for a long time. If Duan Shao can take the lead for them, that would be the best.
Duan Shao grabbed Gao Wei's hand harder and harder, and Gao Wei screamed out in pain.
Duan Shao then let go of him and let him fall to the ground.
"Your Majesty is too young and virtuous to inherit the throne, let alone fight against the bandits. Today, I would like to inform the Queen Mother and request her to depose this king and establish a new one. What do you think of the generals?"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they hurriedly shouted: "I am willing to obey the order of the Grand Sima!!"
These warriors were very direct in their rebellion and did not need to do anything fancy. The same was true for Duan Shao. He directly grabbed Gao Wei and walked towards the palace where the Queen Mother was, surrounded by many soldiers.
The generals didn't care whether they were in the palace or not. They were all wearing armor and weapons, and all etiquette was trampled under their feet.
When she learned that there was a "big army pressing down on the territory" outside, the Queen Mother, who was debating Buddhism with the monks secretly, was so frightened that her branches trembled.
She thought that the matter had been exposed, and hurriedly asked the monks to escape through the newly dug holes. She put on her clothes and led many female officials out for a confrontation.
When she hurried to the door, what she saw was Duan Shao grabbing the little emperor, followed by a large group of generals.
Queen Mother Hu became even more frightened, trembling as she looked at the scene in front of her.
Duan Shao gently saluted the Queen Mother.
"Your Majesty, the generals and I are here today for a big event."
Queen Mother Hu looked at the arrogant and domineering faces behind him and swallowed, "What big event is Da Sima doing?"
"The matter of abolishing the establishment."
"After your majesty ascended the throne, your words and deeds are beyond description. You are in the palace today, and you even intend to assassinate me. I don't know what crime I have committed, and I want to be killed by your majesty. I dare to ask the Queen Mother, am I guilty?"
Empress Dowager Hu quickly shook her head, "Da Sima is not guilty."
Duan Shao looked at Gao Wei on the side again, "May I ask the Queen Mother if Her Majesty can succeed to the throne?!"
