He Bin felt a little embarrassed and became angry. He also raised his voice and said: "Shang Yi, you are President Qian, and I am President Qian. Why do you care about my affairs? You are capable and can defeat the Tatars.
You guys have the guts. I’m still not here to serve you, so I’ll go back to Qingzhou now.”
After saying that, he turned around and said to Qingzhou soldiers: "Let's go, let's all go back to Qingzhou."
The Qingzhou soldiers also booed and said, "Let's go, let's all go."
Shang Yi sneered and said, "Want to leave? Hand over all your things first. Otherwise, no one will be able to leave."
Naturally, the Qingzhou soldiers were reluctant to hand over the things they had grabbed. They had just clamored to go back to Qingzhou, and they had borrowed a ladder to climb down the wall. They wanted to take the things they grabbed away with them. And now they were also unconscious due to the force.
After hearing what Shang Yi said, He Bin said: "I just won't hand it over, what can you do to me? If you have the ability, come to Qingzhou Mansion to find me."
Just as he was about to turn around, Shang Yi suddenly raised his hand and fired a shot, hitting He Bin between the eyebrows. He Bin screamed, stared at Shang Yi with his eyes wide open, and shook his head.
, and then fell to the ground.
A commotion immediately arose among the soldiers in Qingzhou. No one expected that Shang Yi would actually turn his back and take action. When several of He Bin's confidants saw it, they all rushed forward to fight with Shang Yi.
At this moment, the twelve snipers who served as Shang Yi's guards did not understand what Shang Yi meant, so they all raised their guns and fired. After a series of gunshots, they killed more than ten Qingzhou soldiers at once.
This time, not only the Qingzhou soldiers, but also the people were frightened, and the whole place fell into silence. After a while, Shang Yi said: "I say it again, hand over everything you robbed.
"
This time, no one dared to challenge Shang Yi. They all took out silver, silk, jewelry, and utensils from their arms and cuffs, and placed them on the ground.
Suddenly Duan Peng pointed at a soldier and said, "Sir, this boy was hiding something just now." As he said this, he walked forward, pulled the soldier out, pulled his clothes, and sure enough, a few pearls fell from his arms.
Come.
The soldier was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed like a chicken pecking at rice, and kept saying: "Sir, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life."
Duan Peng looked at Shang Yi and said, "Sir, how should we deal with him?"
Shang Yi had no expression on his face and just waved his hand. Duan Peng immediately raised his musket and fired a "bang" shot at the soldier's head. The soldier screamed, and blood marked his body three or four feet away.
He collapsed and fell to the ground.
Shang Yi looked at the Qingzhou soldiers again and said, "Don't blame me, I gave you a chance with my scriptures. You continue."
The other soldiers dared to hide their personal belongings and took out all the things on their bodies. Some of them were their own things, but they were afraid that the Muling Army would get them, so they took them out. In the blink of an eye, they were piled up.
It became a hill.
Shang Yi nodded and did not pursue it further for the time being. He asked again: "So what was the fight just now?"
Although the people were shocked by Shang Yi's merciless methods, they felt a little more at ease when they saw that Shang Yi had punished Qingzhou soldiers just now. Seeing Shang Yi asking about the fight just now, they got Wu Hansheng's signal, and they
A few people bravely came out and explained the cause of the fight between the two sides, and also testified against several soldiers.
After Shang Yi listened, he turned to the Qingzhou soldiers and said, "You have heard what I just said. Do you have anything to argue with? If so, just say so."
At this point, the soldiers had nothing to argue with, so they could only bow their heads and be speechless. In fact, from the very beginning when Shang Yi heard the news, he knew that the war must be started by the officers and soldiers first. After all, who are the ordinary people? When he was full and had nothing to do, he would take the initiative to provoke the officers and soldiers. However, Shang Yi was still afraid that his preconceived notions would affect his judgment, so he still gave both sides a chance to defend themselves. But now it seems that everything is very clear.
Shang Yi immediately ordered the people to identify the dispute that was started by those soldiers. But the people saw that Shang Yi acted fairly and did not favor the officers and soldiers, and they became much more courageous. Several people who came forward to tell the story were based on their own memories. , several more soldiers were identified from the Qingzhou soldiers. When other people saw it, they all stepped forward to identify them. In fact, it was not difficult to tell the difference, because the previous soldiers had fought with the people, and each one There were more or less traces of tearing and beating on each individual's body, so within a short time, one hundred and twenty-seven people were identified by the people.
The one hundred and twenty-seven people who had just participated in the fight were not the only ones, but those who were identified were the ones who caused the most ferocity and left the most impressive impression. Shang Yi immediately ordered that all of the one hundred and twenty-seven people be killed. They were tied up and imprisoned under the supervision of their descendants, while the remaining soldiers immediately disarmed and discarded their weapons, temporarily restricting their movements. They were also warned that if they stayed honest and did not cause trouble, their lives could be guaranteed. Anyone who dared to cause trouble again would be shot without mercy. .At the same time, three hundred musketeers were sent to guard them.
After dealing with the soldiers, Shang Yi went to appease the people and said: "My fellow villagers, it is because of my lax discipline and inability to manage the army that I, Shang Yi, allowed this group of soldiers to commit crimes in the city and made all the villagers suffer. But please, please Don't worry, folks, this kind of thing will never happen again. As you all saw just now, I have arrested the murderer. But there are too many things today and there is no time to deal with them at the moment. In the next two days, I will definitely deal with those who were killed or injured. Let me explain to you folks. Please follow our army’s arrangements and respect order. We will arrange your daily rations.”
Shang Yi's actions just now were all seen by the people. It can be said that almost all the people have never seen an official who makes decisions for themselves like this. I only heard stories that there was a Bao Gong Bao Qingtian in the Song Dynasty who made decisions for the people. There were also some Older people have said that a few decades ago in the Ming Dynasty, there was a Hai Rui Hai Qingtian, who also made decisions for many people. Unexpectedly, in his own lifetime, and after escaping death, , could really meet such officials. Therefore, they were all willing to be under the command of Muling Army and found a place to settle down.
This turmoil was finally calmed down and did not cause a major disaster. However, Shang Yi did not dare to be careless. After all, these were hundreds of thousands of people. Even if they were stabilized now, if it broke out again, But it was too bad, so he sent Wu Hansheng and other soldiers from the reconnaissance team to disperse among the people to appease their emotions. He also mobilized people from the people to cook and provide food. Fortunately, the food in the city was piled up like a mountain and could be put away. Open supply.
At this moment, the Muling army who was cleaning the battlefield outside the city also entered Muling Pass, which also attracted many people to rush to the city gate to watch.
I saw a group of people coming in from the city gate, including cavalry and infantry. Although everyone had some blood stains on their bodies, and some people's armors were damaged, everyone was in high spirits, holding their heads high, and they were full of energy and other bright colors.
The army was completely different. There were many vehicles accompanying the army into the city, as well as horses carrying various captured supplies. The severed heads of the Qing army were loaded into more than a dozen vehicles, and behind the vehicles, there were also
A group of captured soldiers all lowered their heads in dejection.
Everyone in Jinan City had suffered at the hands of Qing soldiers. When they saw Qing soldiers being captured, they became very angry. They picked up stones and dirt and threw them at the heads of Qing soldiers.
The Qing soldiers were only able to dodge left and right, and some of them hugged their heads. If soldiers from the Muling Army hadn't been blocking them on both sides, they would have rushed up to beat the Qing soldiers.
At this time, the people finally believed that the imperial army had indeed defeated the Qing army and recovered Jinan Mansion, and they were finally safe. Therefore, many people knelt down on both sides of the road and worshiped.
There are also those who are brave enough to ask the soldiers: "Master, where are you from the army?"
"Fellow, are we the troops of the Mulingguan Qian Commander-in-Chief?"
"Where is Muling Prison? I haven't heard of it before. Master Jun, what is your general's name?"
"Our Mr. Qian's surname is Shang, and his name is Shang Yi. Do you know?"
"Shang Yi? So you are the merchant army?"
"…………"
"The Merchant Army, folks, they are the Merchant Army, and it was the Merchant Army that defeated the Tatars."
Shang Yi also did not expect that it was at this time that the army he single-handedly started to be named after "Shang", which was another result of regaining Jinan Prefecture. Of course, Shang Yi was not opposed to this title. After all, he could
Of the armies named after the surnames of their generals, only two have been recorded in historical policies - the Yue Jiajun and the Qi Jiajun. They are both famous armies in Chinese history. It is of course a great honor to be able to stand side by side with such two armies.
, at the same time, this title also strengthened the entire army's dependence on Shang Yi, and from then on, the Muling Army began to regard itself as the Shang Army internally.
According to the final statistics, in the battle to regain Jinan Prefecture, the Muling Army beheaded a total of 2,487 people and captured 216 people alive. In addition, 456 people died in the battle, and another 100 people were captured alive.
Twenty-five people were injured. This was also the first large-scale field battle between the Muling Army and the main force of the Qing army. The casualty ratio between the two sides reached five to one, mainly because the long-range strikes of the Muling Army were too powerful, and it also proved that muskets can also
Bring yourself victory in the field.
At the same time, the harvest from this battle was not small. There were more than 3,000 pieces of armor of all kinds, 6,000 to 7,000 pieces of swords, guns, instruments, gongs, drums, and flags. 40,000 she taels of silver were also found from the Qing soldiers, and they also captured
There were more than 350 war horses, and there were even more than 500 dead horses. The Muling army also adhered to the tradition of the past, and brought everything they could take back to Jinan Mansion.
However, these things seized can only be considered insignificant compared with the various materials accumulated in Jinan Prefecture. Whether it is grain, fodder, or cloth, they can only be described as piles of mountains. Especially when seeing the silver stored in the warehouse,
This sentence suddenly popped up in Shang Yi's mind: I am so surprised, I have never seen so much money in my life.
