"The chief was killed for Dongjiang Town!"

"The chief was killed for Dongjiang Town!"

……

In the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, on the first day of October, when Zhu Guoqiang led tens of thousands of troops and just crossed the Datong River, dozens of cavalry brought a news that shocked everyone.

The chief is dead!

One side is torn and full of bullet holes, and there is a human head in a wooden box.

Huang Taiji is dead!

Facing the Huanglong Daxu and the human head, Zhu Guoqiang's mood can be described as extremely complicated, and he even deliberately picked up the human head with his own hands, considering whether to make it into a specimen. But he stared at it for a while, and after a moment, he said with some interest.

"Don't look at it, it's not Huang Taiji, that dog thing is running away again!"

After that, he threw the human head on the ground at random, but Lin Qingye was surprised when he saw the human head.

"General, this, this is Jiannu's pseudo-Prince Zheng Jierharang!"

Oh......

Zhu Guoqiang responded casually, but said regretfully.

"It's just a pseudo-king, it's the bait under Huang Taiji, we bit it, but unfortunately let the main owner escape."

"General, let him escape, where can he flee, it is the end of the world, we can also chase it! Kill them all! ”

Where did they flee?

Glancing towards the south, a thought suddenly popped up in Zhu Guoqiang's heart.

"I'm afraid they'll run away farther than you think! Order the troops to march to Daifang Fort and join Mao Chengdou! ”

After that, Zhu Guoqiang looked at Mao Chengzhi, who was excited, and said with a smile.

"Chengzhi, this time your eldest brother has made a great contribution, with 15,000 weak soldiers, 40,000 Jiannu, plus the battle to kill Jierharang, the last time he forced to surrender to Daishan, in terms of military merits, Brother Ling can be said to be the third person in my Pingyu Army!"

Zhu Guoqiang's heart is also very proud, after all, it was his own idea to use Mao Chengdou at the beginning, and now it turns out that he did not use the wrong person!

"It's all the work of the general, if it weren't for the general and Pyongyang to defeat Jiannu, how could Jiannu run away in a hurry and let the eldest brother pick up a cheap ......"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Zhu Guoqiang smiled.

"Okay, Chengzhi, you don't have to be humble, this matter is the credit of your eldest brother, there is no other person's business, 15,000, 40,000 ......"

Nodding proudly, Zhu Guoqiang looked at everyone and said.

"This is the invincible Han army, after this battle, Jiannu is bound to be frightened, the rest, let's just make great strides to pursue! He Huang Taiji is just a rabbit's tail, he can't grow! Order the whole army, go south! ”

Go south, go south!

With an order, tens of thousands of Pingyu troops immediately went all the way south.

……

Fire!

The majestic fire burned over Seoul, and corpses could be seen everywhere inside and outside Seoul, the corpses were not divided into two classes of nobles, Chinese civilians, all of them were just the targets of the Qing army's massacre, after returning to Seoul from the mountain road, as soon as he entered the city, the first military order issued by Huang Taiji was to slaughter the city - it was the 20,000 green battalion soldiers under his command who carried it out!

The Green Battalion soldiers, who were composed of untouchables, were hesitant at first when they heard about the massacre, but when they learned that all the proceeds of the robbery and killing belonged to them, they would hesitate, and then the entire Seoul became a hell, and nearly 100,000 officials and civilians inside and outside Seoul were slaughtered, and even the king of Joseon was tied up in front of Hwang Tae-gil.

Li Qi, who was kneeling on the ground, looked at Huang Taiji angrily, looked at the burning Seoul in the distance, and shouted loudly.

"Chief Hu, why do you treat me like this?"

For more than a year, Li Liang has been enduring humiliation, waiting for Daming's father to come to the rescue, when he learned that Hu Sheikh was defeated, he even knelt down in the direction of Beijing in private, grateful that Daming's father had not forgotten North Korea, he even thought about it, he must go to Beijing in person to apologize, Daming's father will definitely forgive him.

But he never thought that just when he fantasized that Daming's father would forgive him for his mistakes and let him return to North Korea, Huang Taiji began to massacre in Seoul, and when those rebellious soldiers rushed into the palace to burn and loot, insulting the concubine and the concubine, Li Liang suddenly understood that Huang Taiji could not let him go.

"Well, to borrow your head!"

After that, Huang Taiji drew his knife and slashed it, and when the knife fell in his hand, Li Liang didn't even have time to scream in a hurry, and his head was in a different place, and for a while, there was a smell of blood under the yellow cloth shed.

After cutting off Li Liang's head with his own hands, Huang Taiji said again.

"Someone, wrap King Li's head in cloth and send it to General Mingguo!"

Fan Wencheng, who was standing on the side, hurriedly said.

"The emperor is wise, presumably he must be waiting for King Li's head, betraying Hua and abandoning Ming, this is a big crime that offends the world, and the emperor has solved a big trouble for him!"

Glancing at Fan Wencheng, Huang Taiji put away his long knife and asked.

"Fan Wencheng, what should I do next?"

"Kill!"

Facing the emperor's inquiry, Fan Wencheng said directly.

"All the way south, all the way to kill, try to kill the Korean people, only by eroding North Korea as much as possible, can Zhu Ciying not be able to get North Korea's money and food, so that in the short term, he cannot use North Korea as a springboard to attack Japan, so that my Great Qing Kingdom can slowly try to use Japan!"

Fan Wencheng didn't know how many Korean people would die tragically with his words, but he didn't think it was a big deal about this, after all, killing was a principle of the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and only in this way could the war potential of the Ming Kingdom in the north be disintegrated. Doing so now in North Korea is also aimed at dismantling North Korea's war potential.

"There are no North Korean farmers to farm, no North Korean coolies to transport, he Zhu Ciying is just a strong army, and besides, such a killing can also make the green battalion soldiers return to me and become one with my Qing Dynasty, even if they are willing to surrender, will the North Koreans accept them? This is the petition of the name - it is the petition of the Eight Banners of Goryeo. ”

When Fan Wencheng mentioned the nomination, Huang Taiji suddenly laughed at himself.

"I think of my Huangtai Jirong horse all my life, but in the end I am also looking forward and backward, if I had ordered the Green Battalion soldiers to kill the people of the dynasty and let them be bound to my Qing Dynasty, how could I end up in such a field?"

After sighing like this, Huang Taiji glanced towards the north, and then said.

"King Zheng, it should be dead!"

"King Zheng, the public is loyal to the country, and he is loyal to the Qing Dynasty!"

After saying this, Fan Wencheng looked at the emperor and said.

"Please also ask the emperor to go south as soon as possible, don't let King Zheng waste all his efforts!"

At this time, the two of them naturally would not mention it again, the original decision to let King Zheng act as a bait, what was the purpose of the two routes, that is, to delay the footsteps of the Ming army, so that they could calmly go south, and then cross the sea to Tsushima.

……

Ten days later, when Zhu Guoqiang led the army to Seoul, although the black smoke over Seoul had dispersed, as a city, it had been completely erased, leaving only a broken wall, and between the broken walls, there were thousands of lonely ghosts, who were desperately squatting near the rubble, and there were many corpses covered with wind and snow at their feet.

Although he had already learned the news of the Jiannu massacre before coming to Seoul, Zhu Guoqiang was still stunned by the scene in front of him, and the first thing he saw was such a living hellish scene.

Seoul is gone, and so are the people in Seoul!

100,000 officials and ordinary people were killed like this!

What was once alive left behind only the bones and bones of corpses everywhere.

In the face of the tragic situation in front of them, Li Hao, Lin Qingye and other Koreans all knelt in front of the general with tears in their eyes, begging him to send troops south to avenge King Li and the soldiers and people of Seoul.

In the face of their request, Zhu Guoqiang said with deep understanding.

"Please rest assured, this revenge will be avenged, but the top priority at the moment is to find King Li's body first and bury it properly, this is the filial piety that a son of man should fulfill!"

Revenge for the North Koreans?

Will report!

But that's the future!

Looking at the North Koreans who share the same hatred, Zhu Guoqiang felt that Huang Taiji had done a good deed, and with his massacre, the North Koreans would only rely more and more closely on Daming's father.

After pacifying the Koreans in the name of filial piety, Zhu Guoqiang stared at the south and muttered to himself.

"Huang Taiji, come and don't be rude, I accepted this courtesy......"
