Seeing the white flag raised high in the Qing army's array, Li Xiao had a faint smile on his face, but there was an inexplicable sigh in his heart.

I didn't expect that these Qing troops would collapse so quickly without fighting, and they didn't even have the determination to resolutely serve the death for this great Qing dragon rejuvenation land, which is really disappointing.

These Tartars, who were flying and domineering in the past, completely lost their combat courage after seeing the Tang Army's cruel and fierce slaughter-style battle, which is really speechless.

Li Xiao groaned slightly, then waved his hand and ordered the whole army to stop attacking.

The sound of non-stop shooting sounded like popping beans, stopped instantly, and the entire battlefield was suddenly silent.

Only large clouds of white whistle smoke filled silently everywhere, and finally disappeared into the sky, with large gray clouds pouring up.

Soon, the three gates of Hetuara City were wide open, and the Tang army surrounded outside entered the city in large numbers like a raging flood, and continuous cheers surged into the sky.

The entire Qing army and the young strong, under the leadership of the main general Babuhai, threw their weapons, formed a column, and walked out of the position dejectedly, and were immediately guarded by the Tang army.

At this point, the siege of Hetuara has finally come to an end.

More than 1,500 Qing soldiers were killed, while only a few soldiers of the Tang army were slightly wounded.

Such a battle was a completely one-sided slaughter.

From the early morning to the present, it took less than three hours for the Tang army to successfully conquer the Qing Dynasty's Longxing land, Hetuara City, and its efficiency can be described as amazing.

Of course, in such an efficient siege operation, it is accumulated by details.

On the first line, the Tang army sneaked up thousands of miles and crossed the no-man's land without being discovered by the Qing army, which was the biggest loss of the Qing army. Secondly, Babuhai, the commander-in-chief of the Qing army, was hesitant and indecisive, unable to organize effective resistance. In the end, because of the long-term laxity, the Qing army's reinforcements were far away in Shen *** and could not arrive before the Tang army besieged the city, and various factors were superimposed, which eventually led to Hetuala, the city of Longxing in the Qing Dynasty, which was completely broken by the Tang army in less than three hours, and the defenders could only surrender helplessly.

Babuhai himself was quickly pushed and shoved by the Tang soldiers and brought to Li Xiao, who was sitting on the snow-stepping horse.

Li Xiao looked down at him with an extremely proud look.

"This official is Li Xiao, the Duke of Tang Guo, who are you, can you understand Chinese?"

Hearing Li Xiao's question, Babuhai was stunned for a moment, and then knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"The slave Bubahai is a Qing Dynasty clan, and the slave does not know the heavenly soldiers, and he dares to confront the Duke of Tang Guo, which is really a crime that deserves death."

Babuhai replied in stiff Chinese, and kowtowed on the ground like pounding garlic.

"Oh, it turns out that you are the eleventh son of the old slave, the general of the Zhenguo Babuhai." Li Xiao said in a teasing tone, looking him up and down.

"It's the minion, it turns out that you already know something about the minion." Babuhai's eyes lit up, and a flattering smile welled up on his face.

Seeing this Qing Dynasty clan Babuhai, who was so servile in front of him, claiming to be a slave, and making such a lowly and begging for his life, Li Xiao despised this person in his heart, but he was secretly proud.

Thinking about it, since the beginning of the forehead, such as Nikan, Yue Xu, Adali, Lekedehun and other Qing Dynasty clans, they either bowed their knees to serve under their own hands, or were brutally executed by themselves, and it is not surprising that they have earned another Qing court clan Babuhai today.

Do you, then, want to spare this man, or do you want to kill him, as he has decided before?

When Li Xiao was groaning, Babuhai, who was kneeling on the ground, seemed to have guessed Li Xiao's thoughts, he had a bitter face, but there was a flattering smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said to Li Xiao urgently: "Lord Li, but for the sake of the slaves leading the people to surrender, spare the next cheap life!" Although the slave has no regret to die, as long as he can live, he is willing to be a cow and a horse. “

Babuhai's strange and humble tone caused a group of Tang soldiers to eat and snicker.

It's just that Babuhai didn't care at all, he knelt on the ground like a stray dog begging for his master, but his eyes stared at the ground, looking at Li Xiao who was sitting upright on the horse.

Li Xiao smiled slightly on his face, and replied loudly: "Babuhai, my father has always had clear rewards and punishments, and he is fair and impartial. Although you don't know the current affairs, and you should be severely punished against the heavenly soldiers, but thinking that you are lost and know that you have the merit of leading the people to surrender, it can be regarded as a small achievement. My father will spare you the death penalty. “

"Tang Guogong really has a big belly and a big heart, and his heart is like the sea, thank you Tang Guogong, thank you, Lord Li!"

Listening to Li Xiao's words that decided his own life and death, Babuhai's face was happy, full of lightness, and he kowtowed anxiously like pounding garlic.

At this time, he seemed to think of something again, and asked Li Xiao softly with a sneer: "The slave dares to ask Lord Li, what should Tang Guogong do with these soldiers and horses of the slave and the people in the city?" “

When Li Xiao saw him, his face showed displeasure, and he immediately shouted: "This matter is decided by the father-in-law, so why do you need to ask more!" “

Seeing Li Xiao's anger, Babuhai's face suddenly showed a look of fear, he snapped a few times, slapped his mouth a few times, and said loudly: "The slave should die, the holy will of Tang Guogong, the slave dares to speculate on himself, it really deserves to die." “

Li Xiao was so timid and frightened when he saw him, and he was even more contemptuous of this person in his heart.

Thinking about it, people such as Nikan, Luck Dehun and others, although they were all defeated, they resisted to the end, but they did not lose their backbone. And this Babuhai, although it is the same clan of the Qing Dynasty, is so reluctant and obscene, in order to survive, it is simply to the point that there is no shame, which is really sighing.

"Get up, just follow my father's side for the time being, and after a while, you will know the whereabouts of these people." Li Xiao replied with a sneer.

Babuhai trembled and stood next to Li Xiao with a nod, but he was muttering in his heart, what kind of medicine is this Li Xiao selling in his heart.

At this time, the officials of the Tang Army's Supervision Department had already counted the situation in the whole city.

"Tang Guogong, the situation in the whole city has been counted, a total of more than 1,300 Qing army prisoners, and more than 2,600 Tartars in the city, these Tartars are now concentrated in the city square. In the city of Hetuala, two hundred and sixty taels of gold, twenty-eight thousand taels of silver, fifteen thousand two hundred stones of grain and grass, and more than five hundred horses of silk and cloth of all kinds were seized. “

"Well, got it, you step down."

After listening to the report of the officials of the Supervision and Pacification Department, Li Xiao sighed secretly in his heart, although this Hetuala City, although it was the land of Longxing in the Qing Dynasty and was once the place where the old slaves raised troops, but after all, it was not an important economic town of the Qing Dynasty, and the border was remote and there was not much oil and water, so it was understandable that the capture of the Tang Army was so limited.

"Pass on the order of the public army, take all the Tartars in the city to Abu Dali Gang, dig a tunnel on the spot at the snake valley road, and first bury all the prisoners in the city."

After Li Xiao finished speaking to Tian Wei, the mayor of Xingzhong Town, he looked at him again.

Seeing Li Xiao's hint, Tian Wei's face became complicated, he knew that Li Xiao had made up his mind, and a planned cruel activity was about to start.

He didn't say much, and as soon as he clenched his fist to Li Xiao, he immediately went down to make arrangements.

Subsequently, a large number of Tartars, pushed and beaten by the Tang army, left from the south gate of Hetuara City, and marched together to the Snake Valley in Abu Dali Gang in the south.

These Tartars, both soldiers and civilians, left the city of Hetuara in despair, and occasionally some of them walked slowly, or muttered uncleanly, and immediately the Tang soldiers rushed over and beat them in the face, and beat them so that they wept and screamed.

At this time, Babuhai saw that his two handsome young men, still wearing women's clothes, had also been searched from their own mansion, and the two followed behind the procession out of the city and staggered away.

Babuhai's heart was suddenly throbbing with indescribable pain.

At this time, the two little guys also happened to see Babu Hai who was following Li Xiaoma, and both of them looked straight at Babu Hai with a sad look.

Facing the eyes of these two people for help, Babu Hai was very ashamed in his heart, but he also knew that it was not easy for him to save his life now, how could he dare to say a word more for the two of them.

Soon after, the Tartars of the city reached the valley of the snake in Abu Daligang, and they were immediately ordered to dig a tunnel on the spot, ready to be used to bury the corpses of the Qing soldiers killed in the city.

The corpses of these Qing soldiers who died in battle, the slightly better armor has been stripped away, and many of the corpses are naked, stacked in a mess outside the valley, ready to be dug up, and then thrown into the valley to be buried.

More than 3,000 adult men and women struggled to dig the sand in the valley, and many of them wept lowly, but they did not dare to slack off a little, because as long as they slacked off, there were supervising Tang soldiers, and the thick whip was pulled hard, and he cried and called his mother.

Therefore, all the people are doing their best, hoping to finish digging this tunnel as soon as possible, they are all simply thinking, maybe as long as they perform well and can complete the task assigned by the Tang Army as soon as possible, these fierce and vicious Tang Army will be able to let themselves have a way out.

While these Tatars were struggling to dig tunnels in Abu Daligang, Li Xiao, under the guidance of Babu Hai, visited the city of Hetuala, which had just been conquered by him.

Along the way, Babuhai served as a free tour guide for Li Xiao and his guards.

"Tang Guogong, I am a Qing Dynasty...... Ahh......h Oh no, this old slave, since the thirty-first year of Wanli, will move his capital from the old city of Feiala, set here, and then in the eighth year of Tiancong, the city of Hetuala, honored as Xingjing, and now among the Manchurians, this city is also called the old city. “

Babuhai pointed all the way and told Li Xiao in detail about the history of Hetuala, and his courteous and flattering attitude seemed to be Li Xiao's personal companion for many years.

"Lord Li, you see, this Hetuala City, located on the left bank of the hill at the confluence of the Suzi River and the Erdao River, has two inner and outer cities, the inner city is five miles long, there are three city gates in the north, south and east, and the outer city is nine miles in circumference, there are three gates in the south, three gates in the north, two gates in the east, and one gate in the west.

Speaking of this, Babuhai looked at Li Xiao with a sneer, Li Xiao smiled slightly, but didn't say much.

Seeing that Li Xiao's expression was calm, Babuhai didn't seem to be moved by his own words, and couldn't help but feel a little sorry that his sycophants didn't hit the point, but he rolled his eyes and immediately introduced again: "Lord Li, the reason why this Hetuara City is divided into two cities, the inner and outer cities, is to distinguish the residence of the noble and the inferior. In the outer city, most of the people who lived were the soldiers of the Eight Banners and their families, and there were originally various craftsmen who also lived in the outer city, but because of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty after Shenyang, these craftsmen moved to Shenyang, so now in Hetuala, only the Manchurian soldiers are stationed in it. In the inner city, the whole family of the old slave and the relatives of the imperial family of the Qing court lived in it......"

Hearing that this guy was a pseudo-innocent to his father, an old slave, and his own country, but there was no guilt on his face, Li Xiao listened to his introduction, and was amazed at the shamelessness of this person in his heart.

Under Babuhai's introduction, Li Xiao followed him through all kinds of Manchurian houses in the outer city, as well as a series of buildings such as Khan Wangjing, Guandi Temple, Takshi Former Residence, Confucian Temple, Zhaozhong Temple, Qiyun Academy, Chenghuang Temple, Li Yongfang's Horse Mansion, and then the two sides walked to the inner city together.

In the inner city, Li Xiao casually looked at the Eight Banners Yamen, the co-leader Yamen, the former residences of various Qing Dynasty royal families, and finally came to the center of the inner city, the Great Yamen of the Khan Palace.

Li Xiao saw that the big yamen of this Khan Palace, with its octagonal shape and heavy eaves and pointed buildings, was a complete architectural style of the Ming Dynasty, much like a simplified version of the Qianqing Palace.

This place is the place where the old slave ascended the throne and became Khan.

On the first day of the first month of the first month of 1616, the old slave ascended the throne here and called Khan, and the country was named Jin, and the year name was the Mandate of Heaven, which began the official rebellion against the Ming Dynasty.

Subsequently, on April 13 of the following year, the old slave burned incense to the sky with the "Seven Hatreds", swore to the Ming Dynasty, officially tore the skin with the Ming Dynasty, and officially started a war, and the dark moment of the Chinese Han people finally came.

Li Xiao strained his face and followed Babuhai to the inside of the Great Yamen of the Khan Palace, and he saw that in the middle of this hall, there was a throne for the old slave to ascend the throne and call him Khan. In front of the seat, is the carved dragon book case of the old slave folding and folding, on both sides of the carved dragon book case, there are crane rank lotus wax table, lavender furnace, and incense pavilion and other furnishings.

On the left and right sides of the throne, there are eight flags of honor, the left wing is yellow, white, white, and blue, and the right wing is yellow, red, red, and blue.

According to Babuhai, such flags are arranged according to the five elements, of which two yellow flags are located due north, taking soil and water. The two white flags are located due east, taking Jinkemu. The two red flags are located due west, and the fire is kejin. The two blue flags are located due south, taking water to overcome fire. These flags were placed in an orderly manner and without any disorder.

Seeing this neatly cleaned and neatly placed Great Yamen of the Khan King, Li Xiao had already imagined in his mind how the old slave gave orders here, how to accept the worship of Baylor's ministers, and how to discuss the decision to jointly conquer the Ming Kingdom.

Then, Li Xiao visited the Khan's dormitory, which is located on the east side of the Khan's palace. He saw that the largest room in the Khan's palace was the bedroom of the old slave and the eldest concubine, and the rest of the small rooms were the sleeping and resting places of the concubines.

Visiting here, Li Xiao was already quite excited, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly saw Tian Wei hurriedly running over and whispered to him: "Tang Guogong, now in the snake valley road in the Abu Dali Gang, the tunnel has been dug, what to do next, please Tang Guo publicize." ”

Li Xiao sighed, a strange smile appeared on his face, but there was a cold glint in his eyes, which flashed.

He waved his hand and motioned for Tian Wei to step back first. Then he turned around, smiled at Babu Hai, and said, "Babu Hai, this city of Hetuala, my father has seen enough. Then how about you go to the Snake Valley in Abu Daligang with my father now to watch a living drama? ”

Babuhai was stunned for a while, he hadn't reacted yet, what did Li Xiao mean, but he still hurriedly replied: "Hey, the slave is only the order of Tang Guogong." ”
