Chapter 254: Killing Slaves Should Be Killed, Killing Hearts (Second Update)

"Ming Dog ......"

Trapped in the barbed wire, although he tried his best to cut the wires around him, he found that the more he cut the wires, the more chaotic they became, and the stake wires and snake-bellied barbed wire mixed together in their struggles, but they couldn't even move half a step in it.

A stone's throw away!

For Guan Bao and his subordinates who were in the barbed wire, even if they were barbaric and not afraid of death, now they were facing the Ming army that was close at hand, and they also felt fear and fear of death at the mouth of the black hole.

Moreover, the muzzle of the black hole will always take the lives of them or those around them, and they are powerless to resist in the face of death. I could only watch the Ming army kill me.

"Put!"

With an order, Sun Maocai pulled the trigger again, his eyes were red, his breathing was short, and he was staring at Jiannu like this, as long as he shot, he would definitely be able to hit!

Near!

Close enough to see the fear on their faces, to see the fear in their eyes!

It turns out that you will be scared too!

Once upon a time, he thought that these savage barbarians did not know fear, did not know that they were afraid of death, but now, he found that these people would also be afraid, and they would also be afraid.

Aiming at a Jiannu struggling in barbed wire, Xu Linshan knocked him to the ground with a single shot. However, the Jiannu in the barbed wire fence did not give up resistance, and they even tried to return fire with bows and arrows, but their return fire was often exchanged for a dense rain of bullets.

When the Jiannu in the barbed wire was still fighting, and as a result, they all became targets one by one, and were wiped out by the Ming army more than ten meters away like a target, on the mountain bag in the distance, Qian Degong, who had been observing the battlefield with a telescope, did not feel the slightest joy because Jiannu was gradually eliminated, but frowned, because the soldiers were in a hurry, if it were not for the barbed wire, they would not be able to stop Jiannu's attack at all!

"I still need to train more!"

At the end of the day, they'll be scrambling, either because they're undertrained, or because they're all recruits!

However, staring at the situation on the battlefield, especially when he saw the predicament of Jiannu being trapped in barbed wire and unable to advance or retreat, he was still a little worried in his heart, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This Lushun must be able to hold on.

"There shouldn't be a problem here, I just don't know, what's going on over there!"

……

The battle situation in Liaodong is not the most important thing for Zhu Guoqiang, who is far away in the south of Zhili, he believes that Qian Degong can at least hold Lushun, even if it is not good, he can also buy time to evacuate the refugees to Shandong, Lushun is not a place to defend.

After a short rest in Nanjing, Zhu Guoqiang did not delay time, but immediately led his troops north. Unlike when he only led 8,000 soldiers from Jinan to the south, when he left Nanjing, he led an army of 80,000, except for the more than 10,000 sailors of the "Peacock Banner" who stayed in Nanjing, including Mu Wenzhuan, Huang Degong, Yang Yufan, and other troops, all went north with him and crossed the river.

When the mighty army went all the way north, on the mound on the side of the road, a group of generals in armor surrounded the main general, and Zhu Guoqiang, who was standing on the mound, stared at the mighty army in front of him, with a faint smile on his face, he was silent for a long time, and he raised his horsewhip and pointed to the north and said.

"Huaiyuanhou, in your opinion, this time our army goes north, should we take that road, should we take Yangzhou, go north to reinforce Lu Zhenfei, or take Taoyuan County, cross the Yellow River and attack Dolgon?"

After that, he turned around and looked at Chang Yanling with a smile, he was one of the few lords in Nanjing who was not beheaded in Xiaoling, and his mansion in the west of the elephant taming gate was not confiscated, compared to those nobles who were killed and deprived of all their family property, their children were demoted to commoners, and domestic slaves were not confiscated, he was undoubtedly extremely lucky.

Of course, this luck is not only because he is one of the few ministers in Nanjing who advocate resistance, but also because Zhu Guoqiang has a good impression of him. Among all the heroes of Nanjing in history, only this descendant of Chang Yuchun, Chang Yanling, has the backbone of his ancestors, and he has repeatedly wanted to lead troops to serve the country. However, he has been rejected by Emperor Chongzhen.

After Hongguang, he and his wife planted vegetables in Jinling Lake Villa, lived in seclusion and ate poverty, and treated it indifferently, so poor that they could not be buried after death, and they were buried only by gifts from friends.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Guoqiang will take good care of him, and even specially recruit him to the army and go north with him, but Chang Huailing seems to have a knot in his heart, and it is not only difficult because most of the lords in Nanjing are relatives, like his wife is from the Wei Mansion, because of what? Perhaps in his opinion, there is no difference between himself and Zhu Di.

"If the prince of the world is to resist the captives, he should naturally cross the Yellow River and attack Dolgon."

Chang Yanling replied in a muffled voice, even now, in the face of De Shizi, his mood is extremely complicated, when the people in Nanjing refused to allow De Shizi's subordinates to enter the city, he was so angry that he vomited blood, and later when De Shizi killed Nanjing Lords in Xiaoling, in shock, he was worried about the Ming Dynasty again.

What kind of De Shizi is there, it is clearly Cheng Zu alive!

Kill the lords, take Nanjing, and then what?

Then I'm afraid it's on the side of Qingjun!

If that's the case, I'm afraid the world will be in chaos.

Now that De Shizi asked, he answered from the bottom of his heart, in his opinion, the two roads could not be more obvious, one way was to cross the river to kill the enemy, and the other road was to copy the back road of Zhenfei, forcing his troops to surrender.

Going north to resist the captivity?

Is it a rebellion, or is it a bad intention?

It depends on how De Shizi chooses!

Facing Chang Yanling's answer, Zhu Guoqiang laughed.

"Chang Hou is worried that I will enter Yangzhou and force Huaiyang!"

After laughing, Zhu Guoqiang said with a straight face.

"Not only does Chang Hou think so, Hushan, you must think so too!"

Huang Degong, who was standing on the side, heard it, as if his heart had been guessed, and the whole person became embarrassed, and just replied in a muffled voice.

"The end, the end will not dare!"

Without waiting for him to explain, Zhu Guoqiang sighed.

"I'm afraid, most people in the world think the same, in their eyes, I, Zhu Ciying, led the troops north, the resistance is fake, and the Qingjun side is true, so after I cross the river, I will definitely enter Huaiyang, take Lu Zhenfei's soldiers and horses, expand my strength, and then go north to the Qingjun side ......"

In fact, not to mention that everyone in the world thinks so, even he himself once thought so!

Not to mention the 100,000 troops led by Lu Zhenfei and Nanzhili, they are full of temptation for anyone. If you can persuade Lu Zhenfei or take in the 100,000 horses under his command, and then annex the entire Nanzhili, Jiangnan, Zhili and Shandong as one, this half of the Ming Ke will be in his hands.

Who can refuse such a temptation?

Looking to the north, Zhu Guoqiang said with a solemn expression.

"What does the world think of me? I don't care, as a clan, I can't sit back and watch my Daming rivers and mountains trampled on by Jiannu, and I can't sit back and watch the people fall into the hands of Jiannu Liukou, so resisting and killing thieves is my original intention, and now ...... The original intention has not changed, so,"

Staring at the north, Zhu Guoqiang was silent for a moment before speaking.

"I have sent a messenger to Hong Chengchou, Lu Zhenfei two camps, invite them to be with our soldiers, I crossed the river from Taoyuan County, blocking the west road of Jiannu, Hong Chengchou from the north to the south, Lu Zhenfei crossed the river on the south bank, the three-way army to Mount Tai pressed the top, directly to take Haizhou, Dolgon under the command of only 30,000 Jiannu, I besieged with nearly 300,000 troops, will definitely be able to annihilate it, after this battle, Jiannu must be greatly injured, since then, not only can no longer harm the Central Plains, but also can not threaten Ningjin, the situation in Liaodong is bound to be greatly improved......"

Actually, it's all just an ideal!

To be exact. Zhu Guoqiang believed that his two letters would definitely sink into the sea, after all, for the Ming court and those officials, his current self was almost equivalent to rebellion. In such a situation, how could they possibly join forces with them?

There is absolutely no possibility of thinking!

But some postures always have to be posed, and the higher the posture, the more people in the world can see something.

In fact, now going north is a play, to put it bluntly, a play for the whole world to watch. It's up to them to cooperate!

Of course, it can't be said to be a play, it's a war of public opinion, it's a propaganda team...... It is a battle for public opinion...... Propaganda?

Thinking of propaganda, Zhu Guoqiang not only thought of the slogan, this must be written, as long as there is a wall along the way, it must be written.

Of course, I also thought of a certain artifact!

In fact, it's a leaflet, maybe you can't print newspapers at the moment, but you can print it at all, and it doesn't cost anything to print that thing, if you print hundreds of thousands of copies, spread it all the way, and worry that public opinion is not on your side?

Yes!

Now he Chongzhen has a righteous personality, but the righteous character is also given by others, in this case, why can't he use another righteousness to improve his own personality, so that Chongzhen can't define himself as a rebel even if he wants to, and even he can use the righteousness of the spring and autumn in the world to win the hearts of the people and win public opinion with him?

Even, Zhu Guoqiang also thought of the newspaper, although the newspaper has not yet been run due to various reasons, but before the newspaper is opened, it is completely possible to let the people of the world see the faces of those civil officials by distributing extras and leaflets!

In fact, for those scholars, the reason why they can influence public opinion is, to put it bluntly, because they put on the appearance of a decent man and a gentleman.

is also the reason why Zhu Guoqiang would rather put those people in the building first and wait until there is a newspaper before he starts. Because those people don't influence the people.

But civilian officials have always controlled public opinion and the people.

If there were leaflets, good foreigners, and newspapers, who would public opinion be?

"Hmph, murder and heart......"

After sneering, Zhu Guoqiang silently decided in his heart.

"Come on, print some leaflets first and win the hearts of the people!"

Then he turned his head and asked.

"Do we have craftsmen in the army who can engrave and print books?"
