Chapter 66 Make the best use of your talents

Soon, the Ming army took control of the key points of Chongqing.

The stubborn Qing army was all killed, and their heads were hung on the city wall.

Zhu Youlang entered the city by boat with the respect of the Son of Heaven, and looked at the devastation in the city, and couldn't help but sigh that the people were the most bitter existence in the troubled times.

Although the Ming army had restrained military discipline to the greatest extent, it was impossible to completely not disturb the lives of the people.

Li Dingguo learned that the Son of Heaven had entered the city and immediately rushed to greet him, and Zhu Youlang cordially greeted Li Dingguo and the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions to breaking the city.

Li Dingguo was not arrogant, but pushed Wang Henian out at the first time.

"Your Majesty, the reason why the army was able to break through Chongqing so easily this time is that this strong man has made great contributions."

Wang Henian hurriedly kowtowed to Zhu Youlang and said, "The grass people see Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Youlang then carefully observed Wang Henian.

The man had obviously just cut his braids, but he was bald. However, his eyes are bright and heroic.

This should be the New Year of the Dark Pile King in Wen'an's mouth, right?

Wen Anzhi was by his side at this moment, and Zhu Youlang cast an inquiring glance at him.

"Your Majesty, this person is Wang Henian."

Wen Anzhi nodded in response.

"Inspector Wen really didn't see the wrong person!"

Zhu Youlang approvingly: "Such a righteous man, if I have more, why worry about not being able to turn things around." ”

"Your Majesty has praised it falsely, and the grass people are just doing their best."

"Your modest efforts have saved hundreds of casualties among soldiers."

Zhu Youlang said with a smile: "Meritorious work is meritorious work, and passing is excessive." I'm not a faint king, can't I tell the difference? ”

"Wang Henian, if I order you to come to Jinyi to do things, are you willing?"

The Son of Heaven suddenly asked, which made Wang Henian stunned.

His Majesty asked him to go to work in the Jinyi Guard?

Oh my God, he heard me right, did he?

Of course, Zhu Youlang was not a whim. In fact, this is a question he has been thinking about for a long time.

Although Mu Tianbo is now the commander of the Jinyi Guard, some details cannot be done in person.

In addition, his identity and status are there, and he is also a little resistant to doing some secret things.

This requires digging out some young people.

Although Zhu Youlang intends to tap talents, he is surrounded by sergeants, and few of them are suitable for intelligence gathering work like Jinyiwei.

There's no way around it.

At the beginning, Emperor Chongzhen abolished the Jinyi Guard, so that the Jinyi Guard only had the function of a guard of honor. Since then, Jinyiwei's talent has been cut off.

When it comes to the Jiashen State Change, Shenzhou Lu Shen, and the Nanming Imperial Court changes back and forth like a marquee, it is already very good for the imperial court to be able to gather a hundred civil and military officials, and where to find the right person to be a brocade guard?

is because even Zhu Youlang's brocade-clothed pro-army is mostly able to fight and dare to fight, but he is not good at collecting intelligence.

And today, Wang He's New Year made Zhu Youlang's eyes shine.

"Your Majesty asks you something."

Wen Anzhi was stunned when he saw Wang Henian, and hurriedly reminded.

"Ahh The grass people are willing to smear the ground for His Majesty's liver and brain. ”

Wang Henian only felt that happiness came too suddenly!

Before that, he was just a businessman, although he helped the Ming army break through the city, but he wanted to get some rewards at most.

Who would have thought that the Son of Heaven would directly absorb him into the Jinyi Guard!

What is Jinyiwei, that's the Son of Heaven's pro-army.

It is a great honor to be able to do things for the Son of Heaven by his side!

It's time for the old Wang family to operate!

Wang Henian suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and bowed to Zhu Youlang.

Zhu Youlang nodded.

Although this son is young, he is very urban, and not everyone can accomplish such a feat under the nose of the Manchus.

"You are the person used by the Inspector of Literature, I can trust it. After you get to Jinyiwei, do your best, I won't treat you badly. ”

At this moment, Wang Henian was so happy that he was about to faint.

The words of the Son of Heaven are simply more useful than any reward. With this sentence, he is Jane in the emperor's heart!

...

...

However, it was said that Zhu Youlang drove the governor's yamen, and a military general was with him.

Since a fierce battle had broken out here not long ago, the smell of blood filled the air.

But Zhu Youlang didn't care too much, or he was used to it.

"Your Majesty, the puppet Qing governor Gao Minzhan has been shot, and all the people in the governor's yamen have been taken down."

Li Dingguo said very patiently: "How to deal with these people, wait for Your Majesty's fate." ”

"Let's all be put to death. These people are Gao Minzhan's henchmen, and they won't do anything for me if they stay. ”

Zhu Youlang has gradually adapted to the principles of this era.

When two armies face each other, there will always be winners and losers.

Then the winner will be faced with the question of what to do with the captives.

Some of these captives could be kept, while others had to be killed.

For example, the enemy general's personal soldiers and family members are undoubtedly killed.

If they stay, it will be a curse, and they may be in turmoil at any time.

If compassion is overflowing and blindly seeking benevolence, it is not only irresponsible for oneself, but also irresponsible for the soldiers.

"Obey the order!"

The stone hanging in Li Dingguo's heart was finally put down.

At first, he was worried that the Son of Heaven would give birth to Song Xianggong's benevolence, but now it seems that he thinks too much.

"By the way, did Wang Mingde catch up?"

Zhu Youlang suddenly remembered that there was still a break through of the Qing army in the city, so he asked.

Li Dingguo's face turned red, and he was a little embarrassed and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this thief ran very fast, and the minister has already sent someone to chase him." Now that the gong is in the hands of our army, he can't escape. ”

Li Dingguo's words are very reasonable.

At this time, the role of the gong pass is reflected.

If the Ming army did not choose to attack Chongqing by water but bypassed the Tongluo Pass and took the land route, now Wang Mingde's Qing army could easily escape through the Jialing River.

But now that the gong is in the hands of the Ming army, Wang Mingde can't escape even if he has wings.

It's only a matter of time before the fangs are caught.

"That's fine."

Zhu Youlang nodded: "How did the new army perform in this battle?" ”

This battle can be said to be the first battle since the recruitment of the new army, and Zhu Youlang was very concerned about the performance of the new army, so he took the initiative to ask.

"Back to Your Majesty, the new army is very old-fashioned, and it doesn't look like it's the first time to fight at all."

This is not Li Dingguo's deliberate beautification.

Because the Ming army fought a tailwind battle from beginning to end, and the new army mostly used guns and artillery with firearms, it was not too comfortable to fight a tailwind battle.

"That's fine."

Zhu Youlang naturally understood this truth, although the soldiers of the New Army did not have time to start hand-to-hand combat with the Qing army, they could be regarded as having some courage after seeing blood.

Some things are in a hurry, take your time.

"I believe that the news will reach Guizhou soon. I don't know what Hong Chengchou will do. ”

Although Chongqing has been defeated now, Zhu Youlang is not as happy as he imagined.

After all, it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country.

Hong Chengchou will not give up, and what awaits the Ming army will be another ****.
