Chapter 109 Do you want to die for a feud? No, I went to clear the emperor’s side!

Chen Hongfan hurriedly got off his horse and knelt on the ground and said, "Don't calm down, I don't eat much, but the officials and generals below eat too much!"

The king's minister had no choice but to deal with Chen Hongfan for a moment.

Since the imperial court's treasury was full and the corruption was strictly investigated, the Ministry of War transported him a total of more than 500,000 taels of military pay for Jizhou.

The king's minister was worried that one day when he colluded with him to resell gunpowder, so he had already let Chen Hongfan take over the military pay as a capital to secretly expand his troops and obey him to control it.

But Wang Zhichen did not expect that Chen Hongfan would be so ruthless. He told himself that he had already recruited 100,000 soldiers and wanted to pay more military salaries. A few days ago, he asked him how many soldiers he actually had, and he also said that there were 80,000.

Now that the day he went to war, he found that he didn't even have 80,000 at all.

The minister of the king had to ask again: "Tell me truthfully how many soldiers there are?"

Chen Hongfan replied: "Thirty thousand!"

"Answer truthfully!"

The king's minister roared angrily.

"Ten thousand, please calm down!"

Chen Hongfan replied embarrassedly.

"Can this cost ten thousand? If you don't tell the truth, I will ask the king's flag to kill you!"

The king's minister's way.

"Ministry, we are now going to clear the king's side and rebel. Why do you still kill the emperor's position with the emperor's order?"

Chen Hongfan said aggrievedly.

The king's minister shouted: "This hall says that if you can kill again, you can kill him!"

As the king said, he ordered: "Come, take down Chen Hongfan!"

"yes!"

The king's ministers responded.

Seeing this, Chen Hongfan hurriedly said, "Ministry and the ministry are merciless! To be honest, there are only 3,000 people, but they are all elite! Each can fight well, and one can win ten. Besides, we will be empty salary, can the tyrant be

The officials and generals won’t be vacant? They definitely don’t have 20,000! The advantage is still on our side.”

The King's Minister: "..."

But he had no other way now, who made him become a person on the same boat as Chen Hongfan?

So, the king's ministers still asked his servants to release Chen Hongfan.

...

However, the Guards trained by Zhang Gui for Tianqi did not receive any empty salary, at least not obvious.

Because the salary is paid by a special logistics officer, not the chief official.

In addition, officers have high amounts of money for maintenance, and there are special military judges within, and there is a system for regularly verifying the situation of the soldiers.

Therefore, in the Guards, not to mention that the officers have received strict ideological education and assessment, even if they are empty, it is not a very cost-effective thing.

In addition, because Zhang Gui knew that the war had to pay attention to logistics, and in order to solve the survival problem of a large number of refugees, he also trained a large number of logistics battalions when he was training the Guards for the Apocalypse, and was responsible for logistics supply.

Therefore, the soldiers and horses led by Tianqi at this time were said to be more than 20,000 horses and infantry. In fact, with the auxiliary soldiers of the logistics battalion and the temporary civilians, there were no less than 50,000 soldiers and horses.

The king's ministers didn't know this.

He is still leading Chen Hongfan's three thousand troops to the capital.

But even though the king did not know how much the 20,000 soldiers and horses of Tianqi were eaten, he was still worried because he actually only had more than 3,000 soldiers and horses here, so he asked Chen Hongfan: "These three thousand soldiers and horses are there,"

Can you really clear your side?"

Chen Hongfan said: "Please rest assured to the government! The three thousand soldiers and horses in the humble position are all elite, each wearing armor. Kong Wu is powerful, how can the imperial court's soldiers and horses be compared?"

Wang Zhichen looked at it and said, "Well, this hall does look like a sense of vitality!"

"Report! The imperial army appeared in front of him!"

At this time, Chen Hongfan's squad came to report.

Seeing this, the king's minister ordered: "Hurry up and build a meal and prepare to annihilate the enemy!"

The guards on the Apocalypse side also discovered the rebels and began to rebel, preparing for the next battle.

Soon, in the afternoon, the main forces of the two armies officially met and set up a formation.

"Huh, why are there so many?!"

The king's minister looked at the setting sun and appeared against the horizon, sparkling armor, like iron flowing backwards, and said in shock.

"Huh, why are there so few?!"

At this time, Tianqi on the opposite side saw the rebels standing in groups of three or three under the setting sun. He also said in shock, and said to Xiong Tingbi, who had been promoted to Minister of War: "Didn't his minister say that he wants to come with a hundred thousand troops?

Do you clear your lord?”

Xiong Tingbi reported: "Go back to Your Majesty! Maybe they are eating too seriously."

"What are you waiting for? Xiong Qing, you lead the infantry to advance quickly and annihilate the enemy. I personally lead the cavalry to detour and encircle them!"

As Apocalypse said that, he rode away in person.

Xiong Tingbi had no choice but to follow the order and decisively let the spear rush forward with the spear in his hand.

"this……"

Chen Hongfan already had the idea of ​​escaping before the battle.

But because the king's minister, the governor of Ji Liao, was still by his side, he had not made up his mind yet.

Wang Zhichen is actually a civil servant who doesn’t know much about military affairs. He is better at making money, so now he just asked Chen Hongfan: “General Chen, what should he do now?”

Chen Hongfan glanced at the infantry opposite, and the spearmen rushed over quickly. He felt confident for a moment and said, "Don't worry, Master! Their infantry dared to charge at our cavalry and wait for the humble officer to defeat them."

As he said that, Chen Hongfan rushed over with his cavalry.

But the guards' spearmen had no intention of retreating. They bit their cavalry without hesitation like rows of fangs, and completely took the initiative to exchange for one life for another.

These spearmen are all well-trained Guards spearmen. The combat method is very simple, just holding the spear and rushing desperately.

Seeing this, Chen Hongfan decided to escape, but did not choose to fight to the death. Then, before the roundabout encirclement of the guards led by Tianqi was completed, he quickly ran to Jizhou City.

Chen Hongfan and his servants were both very good at riding, especially when they ran away, because they had rich experience in escaping.

In addition to being good at spending money, Chen Hongfan was good at escaping at the last minute and ran directly from a small general flag to become a general.

So, he ran out with hundreds of cavalry before the guards surrounded the guards.

But the king's minister was too late because he was sitting in a sedan chair.

That's right, like most civil officials, he can't even ride a horse. He can become the governor of Ji Liao. The person who is purely the position of Ji Liao is replaced too quickly, and it just happened to be his turn.

When the king saw Chen Hongfan escape, he was anxious and wished he could ride a horse.

But now he had to shout, "Come on the hall!"

But the king's minister's sedan chair has already run away.

He could only watch the guards' cavalry surrounded him.

For a moment, the king had no choice but to draw out his scribe sword and thought to himself: "Do you want to die for a feud? To earn your family a reputation as a loyal and martyr?"

wrong!

Soon, the king realized that he was rebelling now, to clear the monarchy, not killing the enemy for the court.

Destroying suicide is not considered a mortality, at most it is considered suicide for fear of crime.

At this time, Apocalypse had already rode his horse towards him.

When the king was struggling to commit suicide fearing sin, he saw the emperor's flag behind Apocalypse and the emperor behind Apocalypse. He had a sudden inspiration and knelt on the ground on the spot, crying: "Your Majesty!"
