Chapter 126 Seizing the Dynasty

Guo Ning's troops also traveled northward, and arrived at Zhahe camp late yesterday night, and were picked up by the manpower arranged in advance by Tu Danyi, and entered the camp to eat, drink and rest.

The soldiers ran long-distance raids for several days in a row, and all of them were very tired. After eating and drinking enough, they fell asleep.Some were more alert, and in the middle of the night they were alarmed by the noise of fighting in the direction of Zhongdu, so they got up and went out to look at the firelight.Immediately, he was repeatedly reprimanded by the officers and ordered to continue to rest and to regenerate his energy.

The Zhahe camp where they were stationed, like the Jinkouhe camp in the north of the city, originated from the imperial court's water conservancy.

After the failure of the Jinkouhe Water Transport, the Jinkou Gate was blocked, and a camp was set up to deploy troops to garrison it, so there was the later Jinkouhe Camp.The construction of the Tongji River canal promoted by Xu Zhiguo during the Taihe period was relatively more useful.

Of course, it is unavoidable that the waterway will be silted up, and it will take only fifteen days for a boat to travel a fifty-mile waterway.Therefore, the imperial court set up a river patrol officer in this section of the river, opened roads and built military camps beside the section of the river facing Xuanyaomen, and stationed 2000 soldiers from Shandong, Hebei, and Zhongdu on a daily basis. river.

Later, the barracks continued to expand, and outside the barracks, there were many shops and businesses operating by means of water transportation, which seemed to be a rather prosperous town.

Behind these shops and firms, could it be the nobles and high-ranking officials of the central capital, the city is in chaos, and the shops are also panicked.Immediately, someone went to Zhongdu overnight to inquire, and someone came to the barracks to implore the imperial soldiers to come into the city to rescue them.

The military chaos in the central capital must have something to do with the court.Even if the real soldiers were stationed here, they would not dare to intervene.What's more, Guo Ning is afraid of chaos?
Guo Ning immediately sent people to control all these shops and firms.

Because most of the soldiers had to rest, and only a team of more than a hundred people came forward to subdue the commotion, so it was inevitable that there would be some noise during the process.Guo Ning didn't bother to pay attention.

He knew that Hu Shahu in the city was a veteran general, and he would not fail to take precautions against the barracks outside the city, and there must be scouts to check.Some small noises just relieved the doubts about exploring the horse, so that Hu Shahu could concentrate on doing business in the city.

According to Tu Danyi's intention, give Hu Shahu half a night, and Guo Ning's troops can act.But Guo Ning sent an order to just rest.

After daybreak, the number of people fleeing outside Xuanyao Gate gradually decreased. Some soldiers asked if they could leave, but Guo Ning still told them to wait.

After more than an hour, the sound of fighting in the city gradually subsided, Guo Ning remained still, and then ordered the soldiers to start the fire in peace, and everyone took out dry food and meat, and had a good meal.

Until then, the figures of the soldiers stationed on Xuanyao Gate seemed to be moving, as if soldiers and horses were coming to take over the city defense... Guo Ning suddenly got up.

"it's time."

He said: "Hu Shahu's troops worked all night, and finally suppressed the central capital. At this time, the soldiers of the other army were exhausted, and the hearts of the people were the most relaxed, but their troops had to distribute key points everywhere to prepare for repression at any time. They We can't fight hard anymore, they are finished! Then, it's our turn!"

Monk Luo, Li Ting, Han Xuan and others were all excited.

Li Ting thought for a while, then threw the porridge bowl in his hand vigorously.The porridge bowl shattered with a crisp sound.Monk Luo laughed twice, and smashed the porridge bowl severely.

Many soldiers followed their example.

What is the purpose of coming here this time? Guo Ning has already said time and time again on the road that there is no need for additional mobilization.The soldiers were surprised and confused at the beginning, and then ecstatic.By doing this, they are telling their companions that they have made all preparations and have made up their minds to win.

Jing Anmin also stood up, feeling a little emotional: "It's our turn!"

He also smashed the porridge bowl hard.

So all the troops, from Hao Duan to Ma Bao, followed suit and got ready.

At this time, there were experts from Guo Ning and Jing Anmin. In addition, Miao Daorun and Zhang Rou also dispatched their elites and handed them over to Guo Ning for unified command.There are a total of 2000 cavalry, all of whom are veterans who have experienced many battles.More than [-]% of them were once the backbone of the garrison behind Monan Mountain.

In Guo Ning's eyes, these veterans are all extraordinary figures.Some of them are brave, some have the ability to fight, and some have the experience of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages in a chaotic army; but in the past many years, they have lived like ants, and they have continued to die like ants .

Facing power and status, they once knelt down and begged humbly.The more so, the more worthless they are in the eyes of the nobles, life and death are not worth mentioning.

No matter how many of them die, it is just a number; even if they die because of the stupidity of the nobles and fall into the court, it is just a casual mention in the memorial, which may not make a certain famous minister and general fine for one month .

However, the nobles can't imagine how much power the humble people possess.When these soldiers finally made up their minds to rely on their own strength to seize the future, everything the nobles depended on would be reduced to dust in front of their strength.

All they need is an opportunity.

The central capital in front of you is where the opportunities lie.

Since the founding of Dajin, the succession of the throne has been chaotic. So far, seven generations of emperors have not had a normal replacement of father and son.Almost every generation of emperor change is accompanied by fierce internal struggles and even undisguised massacres, and this practice has continued until this moment.

But those nobles didn't realize that the strength of the Jurchens has been continuously weakened in the struggles, while the strength of Han'er is constantly increasing.

Earlier, in order to show his sincerity, Tu Shanyi asked Yishi Chucai to tell Guo Ning about something.It turned out that Li Sizhong, the emperor's trusted eunuch and the head of the palace servant, was actually a loyal ally of the Tudan family.

In the palace, Li Sizhong was the secret helper of Empress Tu Dan, and when necessary, he would respond to Tu Dan Yi's hints and make decisions that were unimaginable to outsiders.

Tu Shanyi is indeed scheming, but Guo Ning and others feel sad while admiring him.

After decades of domination of the Central Plains, the struggle among the Jurchens finally lost the courage to make bold moves. The outstanding Jurchens such as Tu Danyi are imitating the subtle behind-the-scenes manipulation methods in the history books of the Han people.

However, is the Jurchen, who is full of tricks in her head, still the powerful nation that suppressed the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the Central Plains and Hebei?
With the exception of Hu Shahu, this guy still upholds the Jurchen's usual rough and fierce style.

Therefore, today, Guo Ning will take his life.

From now on, the force in Zhongdu City will never be in the hands of the Jurchens!

Guo Ning jumped on his horse and rode forward.

Ni Yi raised the military flag high.Surrounded by more than a thousand cavalry, soldiers followed closely on foot.

Xuanyao Gate was only three miles away from Zhahe camp, Guo Ning ran at full speed without any hesitation, and thousands of cavalry behind him also increased their speed.

The sound of thousands of iron hooves stepping on the ground gradually converged into a unified roar, as if some kind of huge force was slowly condensing into one, overturning the weight of billions of trillions from the depths of the ground, and pounding directly into the central capital. !

Their actions were immediately noticed by the defenders at Xuanyao Gate.

Many defenders shouted in fear and ran back and forth. Some stood behind the battlement wall, intending to shoot their bows as a threat, while others ran away from the wall, probably to close the city gate.

After running to dozens of steps away, an officer in armor stepped forward from the top of the city, intending to ask him where he came from.Guo Ning just moved his chin, Zhao Jue who was beside him picked up his bow and set up an arrow, and the arrow hit the officer's face.

This action caused a burst of roar from the defenders, only the humming sound of the bowstring plucking was heard repeatedly, and dozens of arrows were shot from a high place.

However, Guo Ning's troops continued to gallop.In the process of galloping, they suddenly merged into a dense column and poured into the city gate without slowing down!
A group of defenders arrived in a hurry and were busy working in the doorway.Some people moved the antlers, some tried to close the city gates, and some men who relied on their own strength called on their companions to hold up their swords and shields and formed several horizontal formations, intending to prevent the cavalry from attacking.

The cavalry still did not slow down.

In the next moment, the sound of flying arrows, the neighing of horses, the clash of knives and guns, and the sound of soldiers shouting to kill erupted, and all disappeared together.The dozens of people blocked in the doorway instantly turned into flying corpses.

Under the rain of blood all over the sky, the iron hooves roared, and the iron cavalry continued to move forward!
