Chapter 2665 Guizi scroll chaos, anti-Ge
The battle between the Four Guards Battalion, the Warriors Battalion, and the Banner Guard outside the palace city and the various ministries of Dashiyongfang was on and off. Since this area is full of densely populated mansions and public houses, no one dared to let go easily. In addition, the Shangsanqin Army did not have heavy weapons such as artillery, and the strongest was heavy-duty firecrackers, which were limited in number, so the fierce battle in this area was actually at a stalemate.
The Four Guards Battalion and the Warriors Battalion could not defeat the bannerman's defense line in one fell swoop, but they also completed the siege of the gates of Miyagi, forcing Emperor Wantong to be unable to step out of Miyagi.
However, all the ministries and offices in Yongfang, including Wenyuan Pavilion, were still under the control of the Banner Guards. The Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp were worried that the attack might cause the cabinet princes and officials who were trapped in it. And died, so some of them are restrained.
When the battle between Miyagi and Dashi Yongfang was raging, the Fifth Army Battalion, Shenshu Battalion, and Shenji Battalion also started a small-scale battle.
From the bottom of his heart, Ma Chengxun is not willing to fight with the Shenshu Camp and the Shenji Camp. He is too anxious to fight each other from the same roots. They were originally among the three major camps of the Beijing Camp, but now they are in the same room, but he also I understand that it is impossible for Shenshuying and Shenjiying to be on my side. Both Ma Jinbao and Tu Wenxiu are generals from the Northwest, and they are both from the Northwest Army series. They are either Guyuan Army or Gan Ning Army. Generals from Datong are incompatible, so it is impossible to persuade or subdue the opponent, only one battle.
But it is not a trivial matter to start a war in this capital city. Once the real fire is fired, the soldiers will ignore it, and once the battle becomes fierce, the soldiers' wild animal nature may be released, and the entire capital city may be destroyed by then. Becoming a hunting ground for programming beasts is also something that both parties are somewhat afraid of.
After all, this is not a war to destroy the country, but an internal struggle for power. Whether it is civil servants like Li Sancai, or the generals of both sides, they all understand the difference here.
Of course, it may really evolve to the end, the situation is out of control, and it enters the stage of life and death, so it doesn't matter so much, even the frontier army will be brought into the city to fight, let alone other things?
As soon as Yang Zhaoji and He Huchen received Ma Chengxun's order, they knew they had a choice to make.
As Feng Ziying's most capable personnel in the Fifth Army Battalion, they did not show any difference after Xiao Ruxun and Ma Chengxun took charge of the Beijing Camp and the Fifth Army Battalion. He was originally from the old Beijing camp. After the battle of Santunying, he performed well by luck, so he was selected to prepare for the establishment of the new Beijing camp, and then slowly climbed up.
From that time on, Feng Ziying also intentionally distanced herself from the two, including the fact that their promotions were all promoted through King Zhonghui, who was the envoy of the Beijing Camp at the time, so no one knew their true inclinations.
"It seems that Ma Chengxun is going to attack the Four Guards Camp and the Warriors Camp, break the palace ban, and embrace the emperor." Yang Zhaoji sighed, and looked at He Huchen: "What should we do? It's good that Master Feng is here, and everyone has a backbone." , Now that the group of dragons has no leader, Yongfang was surrounded by the standard-bearer guards, I didn't expect to see Zhang Jin wrongly, and it finally came out like this, this situation is hard to say."
"I guess Master Feng didn't expect Zhang Jin's betrayal, but he should have figured out the complication of the Beijing-China situation. Maybe he will return to Beijing, or even has already returned to Beijing." He Huchen said hesitantly.
"Oh?" Yang Zhaoji's eyes lit up, "Where did you get the news from?"
He Huchen shook his head, "I'm just guessing that there's something wrong with Long Jinwei, Master Feng must have a channel in Beijing, and he wrote us letters again and again under such circumstances, he must be aware of the seriousness of the situation, but he was ordered by the court after all. Ordered to guard Liaodong, if he wants to leave Liao and return to Beijing easily, he must find a suitable reason, and with his wisdom, he must find a way, but he may not be able to catch up in time."
Seeing what He Huchen said, Yang Zhaoji was a little disappointed: "You just guessed?"
"At the beginning, you should understand Master Feng's style, meticulous and meticulous. I don't believe he will be absent in such matters." He Huchen also has great confidence in Feng Ziying.
He Huchen's words aroused Yang Zhaoji's confidence. In the past few years, no matter what Feng Ziying was doing, Feng Ziying had never missed a chance. He was always able to predict the enemy's opportunity. Now such a big change happened in Beijing. , he has no reason to still wait and see in Liaodong.
"Then we..." Yang Zhaoji looked at He Huchen.
He Huchen shrugged calmly: "Although Mr. Ma is not bad, he can't compare with Mr. Feng. We were single-handedly promoted by Mr. Feng. Although Mr. Feng is not here now, we still have to listen to Mr. Feng. Master Feng will act according to his will, besides us, I think Xu Guoye will do the same."
Xu Guoye is Xu Chao's nephew, who was brought to the Fifth Army Camp by Tu Wenxiu. When Tu Wenxiu went to Shenji Camp, he left his part in the Fifth Army Camp, but Ma Chengxun would definitely not trust Xu Guoye's part. Therefore, other means must be adopted to deal with or restrict Xu Guoye.
Now that He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji have made up their minds to fight against Ma Chengxun, they naturally want to bring Xu Guoye over to form a group together.
"It's not too late, Huchen, since we've made up our minds, we have to act immediately." Yang Zhaoji pondered for a while, "I'm thinking, we don't ask for anything else, as you said, before Lord Feng arrives , as long as we can hold the situation together, it is best to form a stalemate. Even if it is a victory, I thought it would be best to win the Dashi Yongfang, but now it seems too difficult, and there are too many unpredictable factors. Cheng Xun must be staring at that side too, now we have to hold him back,..."
He Huchen agreed with Yang Zhaoji's opinion.
Now there is no leader on our own side, and those who can take charge are trapped in Dashiyongfang. It is too difficult to rescue them. A little carelessness may cause huge casualties to these people, so it is good to maintain the situation. To be changed.
Anyway, everyone is at a stalemate now, and no one can gain the upper hand. The premise is that people from the Wantong Emperor’s side can’t be allowed to stand up and prove their Zhengshuo. All the people in the palace were blocked inside.
The sudden betrayal of Yang Zhaoji, He Huchen and Xu Guoye also caught Ma Chengxun by surprise.
Xu Guoye had expected it a long time ago, and his relationship with Xu Chao made Ma Chengxun keep on guard against him, but who would have thought that Yang Zhaoji and He Huchen would suddenly break out and attack from the flank. Even for the front line, the three divisions add up to more than 16,000 people, which immediately accounted for nearly 30% of the entire fifth army battalion, which immediately made Ma Chengxun a little busy.
Yang Zhaoji and the others did not forget to contact Ma Jinbao and Tu Wenxiu immediately when they launched the attack suddenly, and Ma Jinbao and Tu Wenxiu were greatly relieved. Adding up several units, the number of troops was close to 40,000. The strength of the army is already comparable, or even slightly exceeded.
It's just that these few are fighting on their own, and it's difficult to twist them together. However, for them, there is no hope that Ma Chengxun's Fifth Army Battalion will be wiped out. , It is a full-scale street battle where hand-to-hand combat breaks out. When neither side has an overwhelming superior force, it is difficult for anyone to overwhelm the other side in a short period of time.
Yang Zhaoji and others also considered delaying changes, and to achieve this, they must first control the important buildings and parts around the palace city, such as Guanglu Temple and Chonghua Palace outside Donghuamen, and The Sheji Altar and the Taimiao are also like the imperial prison outside the Xihua Gate, and the Longevity Mountain outside the Xuanwu Gate.
These areas have either been controlled by the Banner Guards in advance and are in fierce competition with the Four Guards Battalion and the Warriors Battalion, or the Ma Chengxun Department of the Fifth Army Battalion is also occupying it, or they are still fighting fiercely with the Shenshu Camp and the Shenji Camp. Both parties have joined the battle, and there is me in you, and you in me, and the fight is exhilarating.
No one can control this chaotic situation now, whether it is Emperor Wantong who is sealed in the palace, the cabinet princes who are imprisoned in Wenyuan Pavilion, and Li Sancai and Tang Binyin who are running around. Well, in the face of stray bullets flying everywhere, the flames of the battlefield, and the corpses of soldiers being carried down continuously, they are all helpless, and they don't know how to reverse this rotten situation.
It can be said that no one has the ability to raise their arms and stop the entire battlefield, but this is in line with the wishes of Yang Zhaoji and Ma Jinbao. Li Sancai, who is in the middle of the goal, can't really do anything.
Now the officials of the various ministries in the court are either imprisoned in the seven ministries, or they are hiding at home and dare not go out, and some have even sneaked out of the city in advance, and the manpower of Shuntian Mansion does not dare to move out at all. If you go to these Beijing camp rebels, that's the food delivery.
Although Li Sancai got the imperial decree of Emperor Wantong to form a cabinet, firstly, he still lacked confidence, because there was no proposal for the current cabinet's recommendation; The purpose is to be ridiculed and resisted by scholars, and more importantly, he has no way to declare it to others now. Who will recognize the legitimacy, compliance and rationality of his chief minister and his cabinet?
The sound of guns and guns was heard continuously around the entire palace city, and the entire capital city was completely in chaos, like the surrounding Shiyongfang, Nanxunfang, Baodafang, Jiqingfang, Anfufang and many other rich and noble families. Everyone in the area is afraid, fearing that these guys who don't know which side is the "official army and chaotic army" will turn into a defeated army, and then evolve into a bandit army, then the savings of three generations will really be wiped out.
