In the Wuying Hall of Beijing City, Duo Ergun, who was sitting and watching the report of the great victory in Shaanxi, had a tired look on his haggard face. He was not happy about the victory at all. He was very tired. Since he mobilized all the main attack forces to attack Zhonghua City and almost wiped out his entire army,
He didn't even have a good night's rest.
At this time, someone reported that Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou came to see him. He summoned the two of them. After the two came in to greet them, Duo Ergun gave the battle report to them and said: "I didn't expect that Jierharang and
It's okay to do good deeds
So, after defeating the main force of Li Chuang's army, how is the peace talks between you and the Chinese army going?" Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou said in unison: "We are about to report this to the Prince Regent. Congratulations, Your Majesty, the peace talks have been concluded."
Duo Ergun stood up and said in surprise: "What? So fast? Do they agree to our conditions?" Hong Chengchou said: "Your Majesty, this is a peace treaty, please read it."
Dorgun took the treaty and saw that the Chinese military and civilians were not allowed to leave the expanded China City, and that large numbers of Qing troops were not allowed within fifty miles of the expanded China City. The Manchu and Qing Dynasties were not allowed to forcibly block refugees and poor people from entering China.
City, the China City army no longer expanded its territory, and the two sides established peace
In the non-attack treaty, the Manchu and Qing states were responsible for coordinating and arranging merchants to enter the gates of the expanded China City to trade with the Chinese army. The Manchu and Qing states also symbolically gave the Chinese army some supplies and raw materials every year to show their friendship. The Chinese military airships were everywhere
Fly to collect various supplies without entering Beijing city limits.
Dorgun took a rough look at it. He was very surprised that this treaty was too advantageous for them. Is the leader of the Chinese Army a person without ambition? Although the peace treaty is just a piece of paper, the stronger party can tear it up at any time.
It broke the contract, but is it necessary for the Chinese Army to do so?
Dorgun looked at the two of them and said, "Do you think the Chinese Army is willing to abide by the treaty?" Fan Wencheng said, "We must abide by the treaty. The most powerful spy we sent sent us news before his death that the leader of the Chinese Army, Zhang Huahan, was missing.
The second leader, Zhang Chao, was paralyzed, but ordered all troops in China City to
People are not allowed to leave the city. I heard that Zhang Huahan will not come back until twenty years later. Even if he wants to attack us, he will have to wait twenty years. Now our task is not to anger them, meet all their demands, and even give them more.
To express goodwill, the main force of the army will attack Li Chuang's army."
Dorgun nodded and said: "If that's the case, we don't have to go back to our hometown, but we have to be careful. You first gather 100,000 Green Camp troops and deploy them from Shanxi to Hebei to form a defense line. Okay, you go down and do this first
thing."
Duo Ergun stood up and whispered: "It seems that I have to summon all the princes and the banner leaders to discuss recruiting more troops from the Eight Banners." His biggest headache now is to see these people. The battle under the Zhonghua City was a complete failure, and most of them were defeated.
A young Manchu man died in battle. Now these people are like enemies when they see him, but
If we no longer recruit people, the Eight Banners troops, which currently have less than 50,000 troops in total and are still mixed with many Mongolians and Han people, will really not be able to continue fighting. Although there are currently as many as 300,000 Han troops in hand,
But he was still worried about his low combat effectiveness. He felt like his head was exploding.
In the Nanming Palace, the Hongguang Emperor Zhu Yousong, who was greedy for comfort, was licentious and immoral, was flattered by a group of civil servants and generals who were capable but not loyal and loyal but not capable, and learned that the main force of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had been destroyed.
After all the fierce generals died, they took all the credit on themselves and continued to enjoy themselves in peace.
Spring comes and autumn goes, autumn goes to the east, the fifth year of Hongguang in the Ming Dynasty is about to pass, and the sixth year of Hongguang is about to come. I pasted the couplet on the gate of the backyard, and jumped up to the four-meter-high gate tower with a slight jump.
I raised two tall lanterns. Today is the 30th of the twelfth lunar month, and in three hours we will celebrate the New Year.
In recent years, wars have continued. Li Zicheng's Dashun Army and the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong's troops attacked Xi'an several times without success. Instead, they were defeated and retreated until the Manchu Qing Dynasty occupied all of Shaanxi.
Zhang Xianzhong retreated to Sichuan, which he had ruined, and Dashun's army retreated to Henan, defeating the Ming army and the pro-Ming rebel army and occupying most of Henan.
Most of Shandong was also under the occupation of the Qing army, but there were many rebels in various places. The Qing army, which was under-manned, did not actually occupy much land, but only controlled some important checkpoints and towns.
I heard all this information from the guests who stayed and ate in the hotel. I have developed a mysterious kung fu in the past three years here. Sometimes even I can't believe it.
After I cleaned the courtyard, the waiter Xiao Wang came. He asked me to go to the front to help make noodles. It was time to eat dumplings in the evening. He and I walked to the kitchen. The master chef and other waiters were busy in the back. Now there is nothing
There are many diners, but many wealthy people come to buy cooked meats, side dishes and stir-fries, so there is not enough manpower. Xiao Wang, the two waiters and I have nothing to do now, so we help out.
At this time, after a long row of noises outside, a dozen or so burly men in civilian clothes carrying big knives rushed in from the entrance of the store lobby. One of them stabbed shopkeeper Jin to death and searched for the silver coins on his body. We in the kitchen heard this
After the shouts of death and screams, I immediately left the kitchen and ran to the lobby. When I saw that there were dead people and murderers with knives, everyone was frightened and ran away.
When I saw that Shopkeeper Jin was also dead, I flew forward and turned my palms into phantoms. One of them received a palm, and each palm hit the chest. The inner energy was spit out into the other person's lungs. All the dozen or so bandits bled to death.
I ran out and saw that there were bandits burning, killing and looting all around me. I held a big knife in each hand and rushed over to kill the bandits I saw. There were several leaders among the bandits and I killed dozens of them when they saw me.
I immediately summoned other bandits to deal with me. I rushed forward and my swords turned into two gusts of wind. Several bandit leaders and a dozen bandits turned into headless corpses. The other bandits saw
Even though the leader was dead, he no longer dared to deal with me, so they each took the stolen goods and fled out of the town.
I looked at the gangsters I had killed. Blood was flowing all over the floor. My body was also covered in blood. The smell of blood filled the air. I felt like my throat was itching and I wanted to vomit.
I went back to the lobby and found the bodies of Shopkeeper Jin and several waiters. I put them on the table and went out to look for Shopkeeper Jin’s family members. I didn’t know if his family members had been killed by the bandits. His family looked wealthy at first glance.
Even his family members had been robbed and massacred by those cunning bandits.
I arrived at Shopkeeper Jin’s house. The door was wide open. When I looked inside, there were all the corpses of Shopkeeper Jin’s relatives. There were also some neighbors looking inside to get the valuable things left by the bandits. They were all poor people. I left them alone.
Pull the corpses together and prepare to kill them and the shopkeeper together
When I was burying the treasure, more than a dozen government officials and Ming Dynasty soldiers rushed in and arrested me and a few neighbors who were looking for the treasure. I did not resist and said: "I am the shopkeeper Jin's man, you guys
Why are you arresting me?" And the neighbors also shouted: "Unjustly accused."
One of the leading officials said, "Stop talking nonsense. Even if you are not bandits, you are still robbing things. Take them away." Several neighbors and I were tied up in a row with straw ropes and followed them.
When I walked to the street, I saw that many people in the town had been arrested by the government officials and Ming army soldiers. There were more than sixty people. Everyone followed the government officials and Ming army soldiers to go south.
But the strange thing is that a group of regular Ming army soldiers took over the task of escorting us halfway and put us on the boat to cross the south. Everyone was very surprised. Even if we were guilty, we should be handled by the Guazhou government, so we crossed the Yangtze River south.
Several neighbors on the road said that the direction they were going to was Nanjing.
The boat swayed to the south bank, and I got off the boat and continued forward until I saw the tall city walls of Nanjing. I have never been to Nanjing, but now I am here in the late Ming Dynasty.
About three thousand prisoners gathered outside the city wall, and were guarded by two thousand Ming troops. There was also a general in full armor riding a tall horse in the middle of the soldiers and lieutenants. We were also escorted and lined up among the prisoners. At this time, from a distance
An eight-carriage sedan was carried, and there were hundreds of soldiers and cavalry guards in front and behind. When they got closer, a tall and thin man without a beard came out of the sedan and shouted in a high-pitched voice: "Southern China."
Beijing Admiral Zhao Zhilong received the order." The general who was riding a tall horse and fully armored dismounted and knelt down on the ground with three shouts of long live. The man with a shrill voice took out a yellow silk bag and read aloud, but no one could understand it.
, but I haven’t learned Chinese in vain, so I know that the general meaning is to praise it, and then say that we are all bandits, and Zhao Zhilong has made great achievements in suppressing the bandits, and he will behead all us bandits on the spot.
Among the prisoners, there were many scholars who knew they were going to kill us and immediately shouted "We are wronged". Others who could not read were not fools. When they saw this situation and knew they were going to kill us, they all shouted "We are wronged".
After Zhao Zhilong mounted his horse and shouted, two thousand Ming troops and one thousand men raised their spears, and one thousand men took off the bows on their backs, drew arrows, and waited for Zhao Zhilong's order to shoot.
Just as Zhao Zhilong was about to issue an order, an afterimage rushed through the spearmen formation. Three spearmen fell to the ground and came straight towards him. When Zhao Zhilong saw the afterimage coming, he quickly raised his sword and slashed, but the attack was empty.
Needless to say, the sword in his hand was no longer in his hand, it was already holding his own head.
This afterimage is me. I held my sword against Zhao Zhilong's neck and immediately shouted: "No one is allowed to move, or I will kill him. Put down your weapons. Folks, we are all innocent people. The court is ignorant.
If they want to kill us, but we rebel, listen to me and help each other untie all the straw ropes and pick up all the weapons they put down."
Zhao Zhilong couldn't say a word. He could neither ask the soldiers to do what this strong man said, nor dared to let them take action and cost him his life.
The man with the sharp voice immediately shouted: "Don't listen to him, kill him." The soldiers didn't know who to listen to, and they didn't move. I immediately whispered to Zhao Zhilong: "Fu Wang Zhu Yousong is
Fengyang Commander-in-Chief Ma Shiying, Admiral Cao Jiang became emperor with the support of Liu Kongzhao and you,
Ma Shiying and Liu Kongzhao have both been promoted, but you are still here as an admiral. The emperor treats you very badly. Look, he is going to kill someone with a borrowed knife. I will deal with him for you. If you order everyone to put down their weapons for us, I will
I won’t kill you. How about you not taking responsibility even if thousands of people testify that I killed him?”
Zhao Zhilong whispered: "It's up to you. How about you let me go when you have weapons?" I said: "Deal." I immediately grabbed him and rushed to the person with the sharp voice, and his guard immediately shouted
: "Protect the prince." I couldn't complain.
The sharp one turned out to be a eunuch. The sword in my hand shook, and the three guards who stepped forward fell to the ground and died. Before the others had any reaction, I quickly ran towards Eunuch Wang, and when I was leaving him
Still five meters away, put the sword in your hand
With a push, my internal strength moved, and a stream of sword energy spurted out from the tip of the sword towards Eunuch Wang. After hitting Eunuch Wang's chest, there was a shallow blood mark on Eunuch Wang's chest. It seems that my internal strength has not reached Mahayana.
.Eunuch Wang immediately screamed and screamed, his crotch
It was also wet. A dozen guards blocked me. I danced with the sword in my hand, and all the dozen guards fell to the ground. I slashed the sword again and cut off Eunuch Wang's head. Zhao Zhilong felt it under his arm.
It was like being clamped by an iron rod, unable to move.
I killed Eunuch Wang and immediately put the sword to Zhao Zhilong's neck. Zhao Zhilong shouted: "All put down their weapons, listen to me and put down their weapons." Now he is the supreme leader, all the soldiers put down their weapons, and he was framed as a bandit.
The people picked up their weapons, and many people wanted to go home and ran away.dd
