Chapter 194: Attack on Jiangxi

"Bell... Clang... Bell..."

In the battlefield, the weapons of the two sides collided, and the sound of withdrawal was non-stop. Between you and me, people kept getting injured and falling to the ground.

Fighting on the battlefield is no better than fighting on the streets, and it is difficult for individual bravery to be well played after all. Those who can reach a hundred on the battlefield are mostly legends.

A group of Qing soldiers who were forced to fight without any intention of fighting, Vabagh soon let Mulado and his group entangle and besiege them.

As the saying goes, two hands are hard to beat four fists. Between the swords clashing, after a few rounds, Vabagh caused Mulado's men and horses to fall to the ground, bleeding profusely.

The death of Vabagh made the last courage of the Red Banner soldiers led by him to resist with it. These flag-bearers of the Red Flag chose to surrender one after another. After that, they were taken into custody by the bandit army behind them.

After the gate of Manchu City was captured by the bandit army, the people in the city lost their earlier confidence in defense and began to panic and flee in all directions.

Although the land of Jingzhou is important, the real war was only during the Kangxi Dynasty, when the soldiers and horses of Wu Sangui attacked and occupied this place during the "Rebellion of the Three Feudatories". Most of the Manchurian Eight Banners soldiers stationed here today have never experienced war.

The Manchurian Eight Banners soldiers in this city would go to the city to defend earlier, which was nothing more than Shang Jiabao's good mobilization. Shang Jiabao ordered that those who dared to disobey and not go to the battlefield would be beheaded immediately, and the whole family would be reduced to slaves and exiled to Ningguta. For this, they had to work on the scalp.

At the same time, the Manchu court treated the Manchu banner soldiers favorably. The monthly Manchurian soldiers could receive a monthly salary nearly twice as high as that of the Green Battalion soldiers. In terms of the same infantry, the infantry of the green battalion is one tael of silver and three buckets of rice; The Manchurian and Mongolian Eight Banners infantry is silver one two five and meter fifteen buckets. The officers of the green battalion can be deducted, but no one dares to deduct the salary of the Eight Banners at this time, because the banner soldiers will make a fuss.

Since childhood, they can be selected as re-education soldiers, and the flag soldiers who have been mercenary and have a moon are consciously able to deal with the bandit army who are just "mud legs". However, the reality slapped them in the face.

The war continued to expand, and as the bandit army continued to occupy, the bannermen in the city were fleeing in all directions.

Zhang Rui's intentions are not unclear to the Manchurians, but compared to the despair of the whole family's perdition, there is only a glimmer of possibility of survival. These soldiers must also firmly grasp this only straw.

Survival and resistance, the two beliefs are intertwined, and the banner people in the city are constantly fighting for their own views.

Time passed, and gradually, the sound of resistance in the city gradually faded. After the last Eight Banners soldiers who chose to resist were stabbed to death by the surrendered soldiers. The city was completely attacked, and the entire Jingzhou city had completely belonged to the bandit army.

War is always synonymous with destruction.

After the war, the city was full of shams. The firelight can be seen everywhere, and there are knife marks and blood stains from the battlefield fighting everywhere. There are many corpses of flag soldiers lying on the ground waiting to be cleaned up. The wounded of the surrenderers were lucky enough to be helped. As for the wounded soldiers who chose to resist, they were mended one by one.

Inside the city of Jingzhou, outside the city gate

Although the city has been attacked by the bandit army, considering the possibility of danger, Zhang Rui, who is concerned about the safety of the bandit army, had to dispel the idea of entering the city under the "request" of the staff officers and generals below.

With the end of the battle in the city, the generals of the Manchurian Eight Banners who surrendered also went out of the city with the inspectors of the bandit army who recorded them with the army, waiting for Zhang Rui to give them the final fate.

In the open space where Zhang Rui was, he was kneeling in this Jingzhou City, a deputy assistant leader, with Tumen. and the other two collars. Two of them are being rescued because of their serious injuries.

"Sixth brother, do you really just let those Tartar soldiers go?" Ma Jiulu asked Zhang Ruizuo, who was not far in front of him.

Because some time ago, when the bandit army led by Ma Jiulu attacked the city, it was killed and wounded by the Manchurians in Jingzhou City. Therefore, Ma Jiulu naturally does not have a good impression of the Manchurians in Jingzhou City, if it were not for Zhang Rui's order to surrender to the Manchurians, Ma Jiulu would definitely carry out the massacre.

Although Zhang Rui did change the order temporarily, Ma Jiulu did not admit it. Zhang Rui's order made the casualties of the bandit army attacking the city almost negligible.

"Don't let go of anything, our bandit army has always been true to its word, how can we go back on our word?" Zhang Rui said to Ma Jiulu with a slightly reproachful look.

Zhang Rui's words relieved the generals of the Eight Banners who were waiting for the delivery. So they knelt down in front of Zhang Rui and said, "Humble duty... No, genus... Minions, thank you for the grace of the sixth brother. ”

"Don't thank me yet, you know the current affairs, and I will naturally no longer hold you responsible. But those who will fight against my bandit army to the death, don't blame me for holding them accountable. Zhang Rui said unceremoniously to the kneeling Eight Banner generals.

"It's nature, it's nature." These Eight Banner generals hurriedly replied, and at the same time, they also sighed in their hearts, how many banner people must have died.

In the twenty-first year of Qianlong, the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Since the beginning of this year, the Manchu court has been fighting on two fronts, the north and the south.

Yongzheng spent fourteen years of "hard work" to refill the treasury of the Manchu court, which had been almost defeated by Kangxi.

Since Qianlong ascended the throne for 20 years, although the state treasury has had many large expenditures: such as the construction of the Old Summer Palace, the selection of girls in the south of the Yangtze River, the fight of Jinchuan and so on. But the treasury has never increased, not decreased. Without it, it's just a heavy tax.

The Manchu court did not know the court, and the people of the Ming court collectively resisted taxes, and the tax collectors were beaten. But in the Qing Dynasty, if those who dared to delay taxes would be beheaded, and even those who dared to gather to resist taxes would be slaughtered. If it weren't for the weight of taxes, where would Qianlong have so many taxes that could not be collected that could be exempted for a long time?

The treasury was sufficient, and Qianlong was not at all worried that the two-front battle would cause the treasury to be difficult to support.

In April, Qianlong went to Qufu to play, and came back after visiting the Confucius Temple. Finally, he ushered in a rare good news this year in the Taihe Hall of the Forbidden City: the Qing army regained Ili, and the rebel Amur Sana fled to Kazakhstan.

The good news from the northwest made the Qing court cheer and sing, and all the ministers shouted that Emperor Qianlong's Shengming was great, and his martial arts were far ahead of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

At the same time, for the imperial court to pacify the war in the south, they patted their chests one by one to recognize the Duke of the Kingdom Fu Heng, full of confidence.

In order to take advantage of the victory and pursue, Qianlong issued an order to march to Kazakhstan on the west and north roads to continue to pursue Amur Sana.

At this time, Fu Heng, a bachelor who was supposed to follow Qianlong's order to go to Erling Habilga to rectify military affairs, was having a headache in Nanchang City.

"What? The thieves nesting in Shaoguan, Guangdong, attacked Ganzhou? Fu Heng in the Nanchang Mansion asked in disbelief.
