Chapter 811 Good name

Yang Zhen originally had a loud voice, but now he was standing on the top of Wengcheng City and did it deliberately, so his voice spread widely for a while, and everyone in the nearby city could hear it clearly.

Shang Kexi, while Fan Wencheng, Ban Zhifu and others were dumbfounded and frightened, the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army above and below the city were also dumbfounded.

Not everyone may understand what Yang Zhen said, but the meaning behind Yang Zhen's words can no longer be understood.

——My own governor doesn’t regard Shang Kexi and the others as human beings at all!

——Since you don’t take King Zhishun of the Qing Dynasty and his entourage as human beings, why should you tell them about Hammer Faith?

Li Lu, the deputy general of the Central Army of the Eastern Expedition who was commanding the soldiers guarding the city at the top of the city, had always understood Yang Zhen's thoughts. When he heard this, he immediately knew what he meant. He didn't say anything else at the moment, he just raised his arms and shouted:

"The Eastern Army will win!"

"The Ming Dynasty will surely win!"

The soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army who were on the city and below heard Li Lu raising their arms and shouting, so they started shouting together regardless of whether they understood what Yang Zhen meant.

"The Eastern Army will win!"

"The Ming Dynasty will surely win!"

The shouts of the soldiers guarding the city grew from small to loud, from scattered to uniform, and soon resounded through the west gate of Zhenjiang Fort.

The momentary confusion caused by Shang Ke's unbelief in asking Yang Zhenyan disappeared in an instant as these two short and powerful shouts were heard.

This also means that Shang Kexi and the others' attempt to use faith and oaths to coerce Yang Zhen into ensuring their safety has completely failed.

Faced with Yang Zhen's totally unconventional style of play, Shang Kexi and Fan Wencheng, who was pretending to be King Zhishun's aide, looked at each other and at the same time realized an unpredictable danger.

For them, they are not afraid of gentlemen, they are afraid of villains, and the Yang Zhen in front of them is an out-and-out villain no matter how you look at it!

"My lord, don't panic, just follow him and tell him the conditions offered by the emperor!"

Fan Wencheng, who was close at hand, saw the fear and panic in Shang Kexi's eyes, and quickly took advantage of the opportunity of the Ming troops shouting slogans above and below the city to remind Shang Kexi not to lose his position.

"Yang Zhen! We, the Qing Dynasty's 100,000 elite troops, have dug deep trenches and built long fortresses on all sides. We have already surrounded your small town Jiangbao City like an iron barrel. With God's blessing, the general has hundreds of heavy artillery, and you

There are no reinforcements outside and the city is in danger. Do you think you have any other way out?"

Shang Kexi had been living in Dongjiang, Liaohai for many years, and later joined a prince in Qingqing. Naturally, he was not an ordinary person. When he saw that Yang Zhen did not accept Xinyi at all, and told a set of "wrong theories", he immediately

No longer stick to any doctrine of faith.

He himself rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, Dongjiang, and joined the Qing Dynasty. Although it was a last resort, no matter how many reasons he had, he still lost the loyalty and filial piety.

Thinking of the soldiers and soldiers who died in Dongjiang Town back then, especially General Huanglong who stood firm at Port Arthur and refused to surrender and committed suicide when the city was breached, wasn't what Shang Kexi did not treacherous?

At this moment, facing Yang Zhen's "false theories" that sounded high-sounding and false, Shang Kexi was unable to refute for a while.

However, the small number of 100,000 Qing troops stationed outside the city gave him the confidence to dare to enter the city this time. He naturally took them out at this time and threatened Yang Zhen and the Zhenjiang Fort defenders above and below the city.

Of course, Shang Kexi also knows that mere threats are not enough. In addition to threats, you must also give the other party a way out to prevent the other party from taking risks.

"Yang Zhen, our Qing Emperor has always been lenient, gentle and benevolent. Because he couldn't bear the fortress of Zhenjiang to be turned into powder, he has repeatedly written to send envoys to negotiate. I sincerely extend my kindness to you and to all the brothers in Jinhai Town. Thank you for your kindness."

Don't lose it, the time will never come again.

"As long as you change your banner and return with your troops, the war between the two sides will cease. I, the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, would like to marry the princess Gu Lun to be your good match. I will make you the respectful and obedient king of the Qing Dynasty. I will allow you to build a palace and command a palace."

The troops are a vassal of their own, and there is no need to go to Hajj!"

Although Shang Kexi was under the Wengcheng, he was full of energy. When he shouted, his voice spread far away and was heard all over the city. There was an uproar immediately.

"oh?"

"ah?"

"this--"

"Captain——"

Yang Zhen and several of his close cadres already roughly knew the conditions Huang Taiji offered to Yang Zhen from previous letters.

Although the letter of surrender at that time did not make it too clear or specific, they knew that they would marry the princess, be crowned a prince, etc., and they didn't think it was strange at this time.

However, many middle and low-level officials and soldiers of the advance army for the Eastern Expedition up and down Wengcheng were completely unaware of these situations.

Including Qiu Zhenhai, Liu Lin and others who had heard the news and rushed from the east city of Zhenjiang Fort, they did not expect that Huang Taiji, the puppet emperor of the Qing Dynasty, would be willing to offer such an "attractive" condition.

Although they knew that Yang Zhen would never surrender to the Qing captives easily, they were shocked and began to worry after hearing what Shang Kexi, the Qing captive king Zhishun in Wengcheng, said.

For a time, the soldiers guarding the city were whispering to each other and talking about it.

Qiu Zhenhai and others, who had just arrived after hearing the news, were also hesitant to speak around Yang Zhen.

"Yang Zhen, what I have said just now is definitely not an empty mouth, a random promise, or a deception to you. I have the imperial pen of the Qing Emperor with me to prove it. If you don't believe me, you can take it and see if it's true or not!"

Shang Kexi saw that what he said caused an uproar among the defenders above and below the city. Naturally, he would not miss the good opportunity to strike while the iron is hot and make persistent efforts. As soon as he said this, he immediately took out something from his sleeve, held it up, and continued to shout:

"If you return with your troops, the land you currently occupy in Jinhai Town, south of Fuzhou, north of Lushun, including the Qiandongjiang Islands, will all be your fiefdom, which can be hereditary and irreplaceable, and your general, Zuo Guan Bian, will also

You can all be given the rank of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty! Your descendants will enjoy wealth forever!"

As soon as Shang Kexi finished speaking these words, the city that had just calmed down was once again filled with exclamation and noise.

There are many people, no matter what they think in their hearts, in short, they are once again amazed at the importance that the puppet emperor Huang Taiji of the Qing Dynasty paid to his own governor.

However, the fact that Huang Taiji, the puppet emperor of the Qing Dynasty, paid so much attention to his governor, does it mean that his commander's surprise attack on Zhenjiang Castle had already hurt the Qing captives?

Of course, the noise on the top of the city was like a flash in the pan, and soon became quiet again under the scoldings of the sentry generals of the various regiments of the Eastern Army.

At this time, Zhang Chen sent someone to deliver the so-called imperial edict of Huang Taiji, the puppet emperor of the Qing Dynasty, which Shang Kexi took out from his sleeve, to the top of the city and handed it over to Yang Zhen.

The so-called personal letter written by Huang Taiji, the puppet emperor of the Qing Dynasty, was written on a piece of colorful silk and satin. Yang Zhen unfolded it and saw a few neat lines of small regular script written on it, so he read aloud:

"If Boruo comes back with his troops, he will break the earth to seal him, and he will be promoted to the vassal king. His descendants will enjoy wealth and honor forever, just like the eternity of mountains and rivers. Hehehehe, he will break the earth to seal it, and he will be promoted to the vassal king? Is this to respect and obey the king?

Huh? Hahahaha..."

Except for the sound of the wind, everything was quiet above and below the city. Only Yang Zhen's laughter resounded far and near.

Among the soldiers of the various regiments and battalions of the Eastern Expeditionary Army guarding the West City, those who could not guess Yang Zhen's current thoughts did not dare to express their opinions.

As for those who knew Yang Zhen's thoughts, there was no need to express their opinions. No one said anything for a while.

Shang Kexi, Ban Zhifu and others who were surrounded in Wengcheng knew something was wrong when they saw Yang Zhen laughing like this, but they still held some illusions.

Because they were all former generals of the Ming Army, they not only knew the plans of the Ming Army generals, but also knew very well how powerful the conditions proposed by Huang Taiji were to the military leaders in Liaodong.

The most important thing is that even if they are beaten to death, they will not believe that Yang Zhen, who was born in Liaodong Town, and the generals under Yang Zhen's command, will be loyal to the old Zhu family in Guanli.

In their view, Yang Zhen and his generals' display of self-respect and self-respect was the first of its kind among all Liaodong armies in the past, and they were just waiting for a price.

As long as the bid is high enough, the so-called die-hard loyalists are a joke.

But now, they believe that the price offered by the Qing Emperor is already high enough.

Therefore, when they saw Yang Zhen reading out the promise written by the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty in public, they laughed with a hint of disdain, but they still waited quietly for Yang Zhen to weigh the weight of it.

Only Fan Wencheng, who was among them, could hear the murderous intention hidden in Yang Zhen's laughter. He complained secretly in his heart and began to regret entering the city rashly.

At this time, Yang Zhen on the city had finished reading Huang Taiji's so-called personal letter, and made a noise at it, then crumpled it into a ball and threw it down from the top of the city. At the same time, he said in a mocking tone:

"Shang Kexi, Shang Kexi, do you think that I, Yang Zhen, are the same as your Sanshun King? What about being respectful, Huaishun, Zhishun, Jingshun, haha, you Sanshun King ignores the defense of Yixia and abandons the righteousness of the world.

I'm not ashamed of this, but rather proud of it, but I'm a bit of a germaphobe and can't be as shameless as you. Come on -"

Yang Zhen took advantage of Huang Taiji's attempt to surrender, and the purpose of playing a side game was to trick a few important officials around Huang Taiji into entering the city, and then kill them to provoke Huang Taiji to send troops to attack.

Now that King Zhishun of the Qing Dynasty Shang Kexi and his party had been deceived into the city, Yang Zhen's goal had been basically achieved. He no longer wanted to play with them like a cat chasing mice, and immediately ordered them to be shot to death.

However, just when he was about to issue the order, Fan Wencheng, who had been following Shang Kexi and pretending to be a staff scribe, no longer bothered to hide his identity, suddenly rode forward on his horse, raised his head and shouted loudly:
Chapter completed!
