Chapter 1558: The Blue Banner Mutiny

戌時正, Prince Yi's Mansion. Mang Gurtai, who should have "thought about it behind closed doors", was covered all over his body at this time, and the Derge, Tunbulu, Zonomu and others beside him were also dressed in military uniforms. In addition to them, the courtyard was full of Qing troops, and they were all elite soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner who desperately supported Mang Gurtai. With the secret help of the "Ploughing Pig" team, until the Zhenglan Banner Brigade rushed to the palace and took down all the Qing troops sent by Huang Taiji to guard the door, Huang Taiji still knew nothing about the changes that had happened here.

Mang Gurtai stared at the bronze bell-like eyes, and after listening to the report that escaped from the yamen of the Criminal Department, he took a deep breath, raised his arms and shouted: "Leng Monk Ji, this dog thief has betrayed us, so we can't wait for the big army, we must do it now!" The life and death of tens of thousands of people in the Blue Banner are in this battle, warriors, follow me into the palace, as long as I can sit on the throne, each of you, at least can be a cow; If you can capture or kill the eighth child, you can be the king of the county, hereditary replacement, and never break your word! Rush! ”

Everyone immediately erupted in earth-shattering cheers and shouts, brandishing weapons and rushing out of Prince Yi's mansion. A hasty, tragic, and historic-going mutiny has officially begun!

The number of people involved in the mutiny was actually not very large, only about 2,000 people. One thousand of them were soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner, and the other 1,000 were Mang Gurtai, Derge, and Mang Guji Mansion's clothed minions. In terms of the specific division of labor, Mang Gurtai personally led the most elite 800 banner main guards to the palace to kill Huang Taiji; Derge led 700 men to seize the Dizaimen, Fushengmen and the corresponding two passes in the north, and prepared to rush out of Shenyang when the mutiny was unfavorable; Zonomu led the remaining 500 men to attack the Yamen of the Military Department, because the Yamen of the Military Department was responsible for the mobilization of soldiers and horses of the Eight Banners, and the Prince of Su Haoge was in charge. If Hauge is there, he kills him.

A mutiny broke out, and the city was in turmoil. In fact, Huang Taiji was already ready to attack Mang Gurtai and others, otherwise he would not have sent so many secret sentinels. But no one expected that the mutiny would come so suddenly, yesterday Mang Gurtai had just passed his birthday, and he started today, and all the secret sentinels did not warn in advance, so many of the Zhenghuang and Huang banners loyal to Huang Taiji were still resting at home, and they did not assemble at all. The mutinous Zhenglan Banner army killed and cut down people on the street, and soon rushed to the main gate of the "Imperial Palace".

Huang Taiji is negligent, and the "palace" has always been heavily guarded. Seeing this, the defenders immediately closed the palace gate, and at this time there was nothing to say, Mang Gurtai gave an order, and the Zhenglan Banner immediately began to attack the palace gate. The Qing army was originally good at cavalry and shooting, and these 800 guards also rode war horses, but now it is a street battle in the city, especially a battle to attack the gate, and riding horses is useless. Except for Mang Gurtai, the other soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner all dismounted and fought on foot, most of them opened their bows and arrows, and fired arrows indiscriminately through the palace wall, while the rest desperately rushed to the palace gate, trying to knock the door open.

But the gate of the Great Qing Gate Palace is one foot thick, and a huge latch has fallen, how can it be knocked open for a while. The defenders inside also immediately fired arrows to return fire, and for a while, the arrows rained like flying, and people on both sides kept screaming at the arrows.

Mang Gurtai saw that the palace gate could not be opened, so he ordered his subordinates to climb the palace wall directly. This "imperial palace" was basically built in the shape of the Forbidden City in Beijing, but with the national strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, of course, it was impossible to build the size of the Forbidden City. Take this palace wall as an example, there is no moat protection on the periphery, the height is only about six feet, and the height and arms are elderly, as long as you jump to the top of the wall.

In the blink of an eye, a large number of soldiers of the Zhenglan Banner had climbed onto the wall like ants, jumped down, and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the defenders. Due to the suddenness of the change, there were only about 100 Zhenghuang Banner soldiers guarding the Daqing Gate, outnumbered, and soon they were divided and surrounded, and the palace gate was also opened from the inside. Mang Gurtai immediately led his army to break in and went straight to the Chongzheng Palace, where Huang Taiji was usually there, to kill.

But at this time, the army loyal to Huang Taiji finally reacted. Originally, there were many Qing troops in the "Imperial Palace", and at this time, they rushed to the direction of Chongzheng Hall and Daqing Gate like a tide; Outside the palace, Jilharang, who was the first to know about the rebellion of the Zhenglan Banner, also summoned a part of the Zhengbai Banner soldiers to rush to "escort" and block Mang Gurtai in the Daqing Gate, forming an extremely tragic melee.

Both sides of the war were Qing soldiers, and their appearance and attire were exactly the same. As the party that launched the mutiny, the blue flag was tied with a blue strip of cloth on its left arm as a symbol, but the soldiers of the yellow, yellow, and white flags did not know it. In the melee, the soldiers of the yellow flag and the white flag were killed by mistake, and countless people were killed and wounded. But after all, the Blue Banner has too few troops, and the men and horses of the Three Banners are gathering more and more, and the situation is precarious.

Mang Gurtai also knew that it was the most critical moment, so he took out his housekeeping skills, rode his horse to repeatedly rush and kill in the small space between the Daqing Gate and the Chongzheng Palace, and soon shot all the arrows, and simply brandished the saber and slashed back and forth, cutting the knife to the edge. The soldiers of the three banners fired arrows at him, and Mang Gurtai was hit by several arrows, and he still fought to the death and did not retreat.

At the same time, the 700 soldiers led by Derge have already captured the two gates of Dizai and Fusheng, and killed all the guards who were caught off guard. At this time, there was a great chaos in the city, there were shouts of killing everywhere, and Derge was also a general who had experienced a hundred battles, and he knew that it would be difficult to have a good result in the mutiny, so he sent people to the "palace" to meet Mang Gurtai, and ordered people to set fire in the city. This was originally the Qing army's specialty after breaking through the Ming Dynasty city, but they didn't want to use it against their own people today!

After the far-reaching science and technology, he hated the enemy

The other group of Zhenglan Banner was led by Zonomu to attack the Yamen of the Military Department. This way is almost all coated minions, and there are no war horses, and the combat effectiveness is very limited. Now it can't be regarded as "the end of the matter", Zonomu has already led people to rush to a place not far from the yamen of the military department, but this guy actually retreated. He deceived most of his subordinates to wait in place, and he only led less than ten people into the yamen of the military department to "sneak attack", but as soon as he entered the yamen of the military department, he shouted "Zhenglan Banner rebellion", and his subordinates were stunned, and they had already been taken down by the Qing army in the yamen.

Haoge happened to be running errands in the yamen, and when he heard the movement, he hurried out, and Zonomu immediately knelt down in front of his son-in-law and told him a rough story. Hauge was shocked when he heard this, and immediately led his blue-flaged guards to rush out and kill the unlucky hundreds of clothed minions.

At this time, the city of Shenyang was already full of fire, and the most lively was the main gate of the "Imperial Palace", the second gate of the North City and the Yamen of the Ministry of War. No one thought that in the northwest corner of the "Imperial Palace", where no one was paying attention, dozens of "Manchurians" quickly climbed over the unattended palace wall and quietly infiltrated the "Imperial Palace"...
