Chapter 866 Together

No one knew what Zhu Lian was going to say, but they knew what she was going to do. The women in the Taiji Palace looked at the hostess at this time, and for some reason, a trace of sadness surged in their hearts, there was no man in the Taiji Palace, and all the burdens were on Zhu Lian's body, all of which was too heavy for her. Zhu Lian was born wealthy, she read poetry and books, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the only thing for martial arts is not the slightest way, in the past 30 years, Zhu Lian is willing to kill, and has never touched the sword, those blood-stained weapons are too strange to her, but today, she chose to pick up the long sword, she does not have the invincible martial arts in the world, but no one can stop her courage to pull out the sword. Xianyang fell, nearly 20,000 Chai soldiers and horses threatened Chang'an, Zhu Lian has no way to retreat, she can't retreat, Chang'an is not only a city, but also a kind of belief, Chang'an is gone, faith will collapse, those millions of people around the Qin Wang system will lose confidence, even if they die in Chang'an City, Qin Wangfu can not be withdrawn.

"Perhaps, you all already know, just now, the rebels have taken Xianyang, Song Yugang and the old general Tuoba Xuan were all killed, and more than half of the people in the city were slaughtered. Before dawn tomorrow, the rebels will fight under the city of Chang'an, and maybe Chang'an will be broken tomorrow, but I tell you, you are the people of Zhao Yougong, the king of Qin, and from the day you came to the Taiji Palace, you should have thought that there would be this day, even if the heavens and the earth collapsed, you could not escape. From now on, hold the dagger in your hands for me, if the city is broken, you should live and die with Chang'an" Zhu Lian's cold and powerful gaze swept over everyone, in front of her was Cui Niannu, who commanded the intelligence department, and Zhang Zhenniang, this night, every time the women of King Qin fell, they were all listening to Zhu Lian's words. At this moment, they remembered that there was still a dagger in their hands, and no one could forget what Zhao Yougong had said. If one day the Taiji Palace is broken, he will kill the children of the royal palace and then choose to die a brave battle. Zhao Yougong will never be Zhao Ji, he will not watch his woman live in the arms of other men in humiliation, he wants to protect the dignity of the Qin Palace. That dagger is used to hold the bottom line at the last moment, and that is death.

Zhu Lian's words were too cruel to the women of the Qin Palace, because they were all too young, and they still had such a good youth, who was not afraid of death in the face of death? Especially for Yang Wanran, she has not yet become the real mistress of the Qin Palace, but she is really unwilling to face such a difficult moment. It's just that Zhu Lian won't give too many choices, his gaze swept over, and fell on Cui Niannu, "Niannu'er, mobilize your people, as long as they can pick up arms, they will all be pushed to the front line to defend the city." This concubine will also inform the Zhu family, all the servants near Chang'an are all incorporated into the army, and the rest of you are also busy, since you are the mistress of the Qin Palace, you must have the appearance of a hostess, if you let me know who is flustered and creates panic, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless. Okay, now let's get busy. ”

After saying this, Zhu Lian strode out of the front yard, but the four maids of Mei Lan and Zhuju flowed down, in fact, everyone also understood that Mei Jian and the others stayed to carry out the order, they wanted to guard the Qin Palace, to maintain the integrity of the palace, in short, the women of the Qin Palace, they would die together. After Zhu Lian left, Zhenniang handed the child into Mei Jian's hands, and said in a calm tone, "Okay, let's do it according to the words of the eldest princess, you don't have to worry too much, you haven't experienced any difficulties over the years, if you don't come over the same way, it will be inevitable in the end, aren't you still accompanied by His Royal Highness, what else are you unwilling to do?" ”

Zhen Niang is not as skilled and wise as Zhu Lian, maybe Zhu Lian's words are a little cruel, but Zhen Niang does not object, even if the **** collapses in the end, as a woman of the King of Qin, she should not give that man more humiliation, these humiliations are more vicious than killing him. Some of them organized soldiers to carry supplies, and some changed into ordinary clothes, and personally came to the streets to mobilize the people to defend the city. Yurou is an ordinary woman, she is not as scheming as Cui Niannu, and she doesn't want much, but at this time, she still chose to stand up and led a few maids to Beauty Street. Because Xianyang was breached, the hinterland of Guanzhong was empty of troops, Chang'an was in danger, the originally prosperous and infinite beauty street became the most chaotic place, many people took the opportunity to start grabbing things, making the street smoky, the street was in chaos, so that many merchants and people lost a lot, they could only sprinkle all the fire on the city patrol soldiers, a Hu merchant with bare arms, shouted loudly, "How did you guarantee that the rebels had reached Xianyang, but you closed the city gate tightly and did not let you go out of the city, what is the reason, the street scoundrels are in chaos, After robbing so many things, and no one cares, what are you going to do? ”

Among them, there are many people who take the opportunity to make trouble, but what Hu Shang said is also the grievance in the hearts of most of the people, before the rebels came, they were tossed by their own people and lost half their lives, how could they bear it. Shuntianfu Yin personally maintained order, but it didn't have much effect, at this time, the crowd separated, and Yurou separated everyone and walked up. Over the years, Yurou has been in charge of Chang'an business with Pan Jinlian, so many businessmen also know this rain nobleman in the palace, and someone immediately said, "The rain nobleman is here, don't make trouble, listen to what the rain nobleman has to say." ”

Boarding the Moon Arch Bridge in Beauty Street, Yurou looked around and raised her voice and said, "Everyone, the rebels suddenly attacked Xianyang, Chang'an is in danger, and you have suffered a lot of losses. Here, I apologize to you first, it is my Guanzhong disciples who did not defend our homeland well, as for the losses suffered by everyone, you can report to the Shuntian Mansion for reporting, and after the war, the palace will compensate in full. Also, Shuntianfu, immediately dispatched troops to inspect, and those who dared to take advantage of the chaos to loot will be killed. ”

Yurou made such a guarantee, which completely relieved the hearts of the merchants and the people, in fact, these people still have great respect for the Qin Palace, if it wasn't for the big loss, they wouldn't have gone to the street to make trouble. Now that he has been assured by the Yu nobles, the losses will be made up, so why make trouble again, after all, the good of the Qin Wangfu over the years is obvious to all. Of course, Yurou assures that there will be a lot of trouble, and there will inevitably be people who falsely report the number and deceive, and at this chaotic moment, it is impossible to verify them one by one, but in extraordinary times, if you use money to appease the people, so that the people can help defend the city with peace of mind, it is worth paying more.

Due to Yurou's order, the Shuntianfu side reacted immediately, and a large number of government officials and city patrol soldiers were sent out, and now those evil ruffians who took the opportunity to make trouble fell into bad luck. There are some unlucky innocents among them, but today's Chang'an City must use extraordinary means to deter it. However, the effect of this bloody method was very obvious, and the chaos in the streets was quickly brought under control, and the people were no longer so complaining. Later, Shuntianfu posted notices everywhere, describing the atrocities of the rebels after entering Guanzhong, especially the fact that the rebels slaughtered Xianyang, the people of Chang'an heard that more than half of the people in Xianyang were slaughtered, and their disgust with the rebels was deeper for a while, and under the joint mobilization of Shuntianfu and Qinwangfu, many men volunteered to help defend the city. The people of Chang'an are united in resisting the rebels, not only because of the atrocities of the rebels, but also because since the king of Qin became the marquis of Guanzhong, life is getting better and better day by day, and no one is willing to give up the current good life to follow the rebels.

A large number of servants of the Zhu family were organized, and Zhu Guina had no complaints about defending the city, and what her daughter said was very right, based on the relationship between the Zhu family and the Qin Palace, if Chang'an City was broken, the Zhu family would still be good, and it was estimated that the first one to be slaughtered was the Zhu family. It has been like this since ancient times, among the royal relatives and relatives, the first unlucky one is the eldest princess's maiden family, who let you kiss it. Moreover, the Zhu family has not reaped any benefits from the Qin Wangfu over the years, so it is reasonable to defend the city desperately. Zhu Lian was dressed in military uniform, and hurried to the Suzaku Gate, but he heard a sound of footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, it was his own sister Zhu Fengying who rode up and followed, "Wild girl, what are you doing here, go back quickly." ”

"Sister, my little sister is going to defend the city with you, it's time to stay at home, is it safe to stay at home, if you want to die, our sisters will also die together!" Zhu Fengying was full of words, Zhu Lian would not listen to her words, and directly ordered, "Come on, drag the second lady back!" ”

In her heart, Zhu Lian didn't want Zhu Fengying to follow her, she Zhu Lian, as the hostess of Taiji Palace, had no choice because of her duties, but her sister Zhu Fengying was different. Feng Ying is not a woman from the Qin Palace, she has no obligation to live and die with the Qin Palace, with the Zhu family's financial resources, as long as she can escape to the Western Regions, she can still live a rich life. was dragged off the horse by a few soldiers, but Zhu Fengying didn't give up, she wouldn't leave, didn't my sister really know her mind? It's not that I don't know, I'm afraid I'm pretending to be stupid.

Xianyang City, a lifeless, slaughtered city, exudes a bloody smell everywhere, walking on the dark streets, you can feel that there are resentful spirits everywhere. Chai Yonghao didn't know whether he was taking the right step or the wrong step, but did he have any other choice, these Xianyang people were too strong, if they didn't kill them, once they stirred up the wind and rain in Xianyang, it would be bad for the army. Look at the sky, there are still three hours to light, what will Chang'an look like at dawn, and what is waiting for the 20,000 army?

The morning glow pierced through the fog and illuminated the land of Guanzhong, and the god of heaven held a big axe and swung it 10,000 times to split the dawn of three thousand years, and it only took one time for water and fire to create destruction. Once destroyed, it may not be possible to regain its original style in 10,000 years. The ancient Chang'an, at this time, is like a lonely boat in the ocean, fluttering and swaying, and it will sink at any time. Before the hour, the 20,000 rebels stationed in Xianyang surrounded Chang'an City with high morale under the leadership of Chai Yonghao.

"Brothers, there is only a group of women guarding Chang'an City, if you don't take Chang'an at this time, when will Chang'an City be broken, you will be allowed to plunder for three days!" Chai Yonghao made a crazy oath, morale was boosted, the rich Chang'an, had already raced Jiangnan and Bianliang, Chang'an plundered for three days, what a temptation. That's right, what are you afraid of in Chang'an, which is guarded by a group of women, if you can't even take Chang'an at this time, go home and raise pigs.

Bai Zihe was the first to stand up, raised his steel knife, raised his head and shouted, "Brothers, the prince and general Xiangning have a kind of thing, whether you can fight for a wife and a son, it depends on Chang'an, loot Chang'an, and capture Zhu Lian alive!" ”

"Loot Chang'an and capture Zhu Lian alive...... Loot Chang'an and capture Zhu Lian alive" If today, no one knows Zhu Lian, she is the most favored woman of King Qin, and her beauty is said to be more beautiful than Hanmei Peony, and her bearing makes Mingyue ashamed. With Zhu Lian, it is an honor, because she is the woman of King Qin.

The crazy roar almost drowned out Chang'an, and Zhu Lian, who was based on the city, was not afraid at all, what was the use of being afraid. Zhu Wu stood beside Zhu Lian, and he whispered, "Princess, why don't you go back to the palace first, there are subordinates and Master Zhang to defend the city!" ”

"Why go back? Will Concubine Ben still be frightened by a few words from the rebels? I'll just sit here and watch you fight, if anyone dares to withdraw, this concubine will kill whoever they want!" Zhu Lian's face was cold, and there was an indescribable anger, and Zhu Wu couldn't. The rebels outside the city did not have much patience, the soldiers were very fast, Chai Yonghao knew this truth very well, he didn't want to delay for a moment, and the first five thousand soldiers and horses launched a fierce attack on the Vermilion Bird Gate. At the beginning, the Xianyang garrison camp was not a baggage, but it was all cheap. The rebels took advantage of the baggage captured from Xianyang, and for a while the arrows rained, and the Ding **** soldiers near the Suzaku Gate were suppressed and could barely raise their heads.

The rebels were obviously stimulated by the three days of looting, each as fierce as if they had taken medicine, and more than a dozen people carried the city wall to the Suzaku Gate and continued to crash, and the heavy impact made the city wall tremble continuously. One by one, the ladders were erected, and the rebels climbed the ladders and began the siege battle, and the rebels came up to attack so fiercely that almost all the defenders in Chang'an City were attracted over. Although the number of **** is small, but the courage is commendable, they are brandishing knives and guns, and rebels continue to roll down from the ladder. Although the rebel offensive was fierce, it was impossible to reach the top of the city in a short time. Chai Yonghao has been watching the battle from afar, he clearly knows that there are very few defenders in Chang'an City, when the battle situation near the Vermilion Bird Gate is getting more and more stalemate, he ordered, "Everyone else go to the east gate and the west gate, and give me a three-sided attack!" ”

Chai Yonghao sent all the soldiers and horses in one go, and he didn't even leave a reserve, but Chai Yonghao's crazy behavior was very effective, because he found the fate of Chang'an. (To be continued.) )
