After entering Lulong Fortress, Gongsun Xuanyuan, Jia Fu, and Sun Lingming looked at each other, obviously they did not expect that capturing Lulong would be so easy.
You know, Xuanyuan's original plan was to starve the defenders in the pass for a few days after burning food and then forcefully capture the pass, but he never expected that Lulong would be successfully captured that day.
Although the casualties paid were much higher than the original plan, it saved several days of precious time, which in a certain sense was more important to Xuanyuan.
The first thing Xuanyuan did after entering Lulongsai was to send a letter to Zhou Yu in western Liaoning and Qin Hao in Youbeiping, telling them that Lulongsai had been conquered.
Dozens of carrier pigeons were released by Xuanyuan himself. He knew that some carrier pigeons would be intercepted by the Manchus, but it didn't matter.
Before the pass was broken, the defenders in the pass released all the homing pigeons. Although Xuanyuan stopped a dozen of them in time, several still escaped. Therefore, the Manchu Qing Dynasty should have already known the news of the fall of Lulong, and Xuanyuan naturally also
There is nothing to hide anymore.
Seeing that the fire in the pass had not been extinguished, Gongsun Xuanyuan immediately ordered: "General Jia Fu, lead your people to put out the fire as quickly as possible, and then clear it from the ruins. We are going to rearrange the Lulong defense."
Although Lulongsai's defense was already very strong, it was taken back from the Qing army after all, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty also knew Lulong's defense layout very well.
If the defense deployment is not changed in time, it will be used against the Qin army after the Manchu Qing reinforcements arrive, and then the gains will outweigh the losses.
After Jia Fu led the people away, Sun Lingming hesitated for a moment, then came up and whispered: "General Xuanyuan, although the Qing army surrendered to us, it was forced to do so. Once the Manchu and Qing reinforcements arrive, there is no guarantee that these surrendered troops will not be there."
A stab in the back."
Xuanyuan glanced at Sun Lingming in surprise. He didn't expect this reckless man to have such knowledge. It seemed that Emperor Ming really didn't teach him in vain.
"What does General Sun think should be done with these surrendered troops?"
After hearing Xuanyuan's words, a trace of struggle flashed in Sun Lingming's eyes, and then he showed a ruthless expression and made a motion of wiping his neck with his hand, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Xuanyuan nodded secretly in his heart, but said: "The Qin army is forbidden to kill prisoners, isn't the general afraid of punishing them?"
"You are the commander-in-chief. Even if you are guilty of killing a prisoner, you will be punished? What does it have to do with me, grandson?"
Seeing Sun Lingming looking shrewd? Xuanyuan was speechless and covering his forehead.
In vain did he still have expectations for Sun Lingming, thinking he could be like Xiang Yu? Is it possible to become a famous general? But now it seems that this guy is just a little clever after all.
Xiang Yu is not as strong as him at this age, what a pity? Such a good martial arts talent.
Xuanyuan thought secretly in his heart, but he said: "General Sun? About killing prisoners? You don't have to worry, I have asked Gongsun Yu to do it."
Our army has too much time to take care of itself. Can't we put ourselves in danger for the sake of some prisoners? Isn't the King of Qin a pedantic person? He will understand our difficulties."
As soon as Xuanyuan opened his mouth, Sun Lingming kept nodding his head. The knowledgeable people spoke in different ways. He could even give you several tricks to do such unscrupulous things as killing prisoners.
Um?
Sun Lingming was stunned for a moment. Then he realized something was wrong, and his eyes when he looked at Xuanyuan became strange.
You sent someone to do it yourself? You still pretended not to know, and you asked me the same question as if it were true? What do you mean?
Gongsun Xuanyuan has never killed prisoners before, and he does not plan to kill them again in the future? But the current situation is special? The whole army is in the hinterland of expiration? These surrendered troops are time bombs that may explode at any time, so it is naturally impossible for him to keep them
these disasters.
After Gongsun Yu received the order, he immediately put the troops in order and seized all the weapons of the surrendering troops, and the soldiers took the surrendering troops under unified custody.
The Manchu and Qing generals who surrendered in Kaicheng were a little uneasy about this, but considering that the enemy general was Gongsun Xuanyuan, and Gongsun Xuanyuan was a well-known benevolent general who had never killed prisoners before, he probably would not have killed prisoners.
Something that would destroy one's reputation.
Xuanyuan did not take the initiative to kill prisoners because of his benevolent behavior, but if the surrendered troops were disobedient, they would be seeking death. Therefore, the Manchu and Qing surrendered generals could only suppress their uneasiness, obey the orders to disarm, and take the initiative to extend their heads to be chopped off by Gongsun Yu.
"Just wait, when His Majesty's reinforcements arrive, you will die."
The Manchu surrendered general cursed in a low voice, but he could no longer wait for reinforcements.
As soon as Gongsun Yu left, three thousand Qin army archers surrounded the entire prison camp, followed by thousands of arrows.
The three thousand surrendered troops had neither armor nor bunkers. How could they withstand the Qin army's crossbows without any weapons?
"Gongsun Xuanyuan, you fucking don't keep your word. I'm blind and misjudged you. I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost..."
The Manchu general cursed Xuanyuan angrily, but before he could finish cursing, he was shot into a sieve by bows and arrows, and he could not die anymore.
Ah, ah...
The screams kept coming, one after another.
Under the arrow formation of the Qin army, three thousand unarmed surrender troops were quickly slaughtered.
Gongsun Yu, a veteran who was used to seeing life and death, said indifferently after seeing this scene: "Go and take back all the bows and arrows. We will use them to defend the city next, so we can't waste them.
In addition, if there are no corpses, two stabs will be made to prevent any fish from slipping through the net."
"promise."
After Gongsun Yu massacred all the surrendered troops, the fire in Lulong Fortress was extinguished and even the wreckage was cleaned up, and Xuanyuan began to rearrange Lulong's defenses.
At the same time, Fu Jian in Liaoxi County was fighting the most difficult battle in his life.
After Zhou Yu landed in western Liaoning, Fu Jian did not dare to be careless. He directly dispatched 80,000 troops and divided his troops into separate groups. He was ready to wait for Zhou Yu's troops to penetrate deep into the mainland. He would first use his cavalry to cut off Zhou Yu's retreat and annihilate Zhou Yu's troops from multiple sides.
department.
It has to be said that Fu Jian's plan is still very vicious. If Zhou Yu's purpose is to disrupt western Liaoning and make the Qing Dynasty's rear uneasy, Fu Jian will take the initiative to go deep into the interior.
However, his purpose this time was just to cover Xuanyuan's surprise attack on Lulongsai. Naturally, it was impossible to really go deep into the interior and use 30,000 naval troops to go head-to-head with Fu Jian's 80,000 elite troops.
No matter how Fu Jian showed weakness, Zhou Yu's 30,000 troops did not go deep into the interior and kept scanning within five miles of the coastline. The weapons sent a large number of spies out to collect intelligence.
Fu Jian saw that Zhou Yu was so cautious and did not want to continue to fight, so he commanded the army to attack directly. Zhou Yu, without saying a word, directly led the army back to the fleet at sea, and then landed again at a place where the Qing army was weak, and then continued
sweep.
During the time when Xuanyuan rushed to Lulong, Zhou Yu moved the battlefield four times in western Liaoning. Each time he withdrew in time before being surrounded by Fu Jian, and then continued to shoot and change positions. It can be said that it was disturbing.
