Zheng Xiaowen and Gao Youmou looked at each other and smiled, and they didn't say a word, and Zheng Zhihui, the chief eunuch of the prison army, said in a round game:

"General, punishment is necessary, the main general should really understand the responsibility that should be borne, how can he take the lead himself?

But the two generals Mao Chenglu and Shang Keyi are loyal and brave, and we think that the general will reprimand a few words. ”

Huang Hanyu was still angry, and said: "No, every time there is a meeting, they have repeatedly ordered personal heroism to be unacceptable, they are purely repeated teachings, and this time they have to beat the military stick." ”

Zheng Zhihui knew that the two fierce generals would not lose their heads, and even more knew that their thick skin and flesh were nothing compared to dozens of officers, so he stopped pleading.

At this time, Liang Tingdong, who had been watching with relish with the clairvoyant mirror, laughed and said:

"The city of Pyongyang has been breached, and the official can see it clearly, and estimate that two or three thousand people have been killed at the head of the city, and half of them are Minnie gunners.

With them killing the recalcitrant Qing army at the head of the city, the official believed that the south gate of Pyongyang would be opened in less than two moments. ”

All the civilian officials were attracted, and several people competed to watch the battlefield with the few fixed telescopes, and many more took out their allotted telescopes to look at the city of Pyongyang.

Zhang Fengyi occupied a fixed telescope, and while he looked at it, he shook his head and said: "Our army is united, and the soldiers are fearless, and today we will take Pyongyang to destroy Jiannu and recover Shenyang Wei, so as to comfort the millions of soldiers and civilians who have been killed." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Fengyi couldn't help but wet his eyes......

Liang Tingdong said loudly: "Our army stormed Pyongyang City, which was garrisoned by 50,000 or 60,000 Qing troops and hundreds of fireproof guns, and it only took half a day to break through. ”

A group of emotional civil officials all responded: "The general of the conquest is mighty!" ”

Mao Chenglu and Shang Kexi didn't know that the general gritted his teeth and wanted to beat them.

When they climbed to the top of the city one after the other, they found that the Qing troops who remained at the head of the city were all wounded who had lost their mobility, except for one person, who was covered in blood but was lucky and was not injured.

Of course, this person was Zhou Hongmo, who was frightened crazy, and when he saw the soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" who kept jumping off the battlements, they did not dodge or dodge, clapped their hands and laughed, shouting: "It's coming, it's finally here, it's all here, hahaha......"

Zhou Hongmo also had dozens of family members supervising the battle at the head of the city, and when they were subjected to shelling, they were killed and wounded, and the rest of the people saw Kong Youde's family slipping away, and they also ran away, and no one wanted to take a second look at the frightened owner.

Mao Chenglu and Shang Keyi have been in battle for a long time, and they have seen a lot of people who are scared of madness on the battlefield, and they can't see this kind of useless thing.

Mao Chenglu didn't look at it at all, of course he didn't know that this blood-stained master was still a deputy general, and scolded:

"Shameful bastard, don't get in the way, get out of the way." raised his leg and kicked Zhou Hongmo down the horse road until he rolled to the bottom of the city.

I don't know if Mao Chenglu kicked it too hard, or if Zhang Hongmo hit it when he rolled off the road, and the traitor fainted.

The first Minnie gunners to ascend to the top of the city were Zhang Geng and his thirty men, who respectively covered the sword and shield men along the horse road to occupy the city gate.

At this time, the defenders of Pyongyang were defeated, and the defenders at the South Gate not only refused to fight against the "Red Banner Army", but also clamored for the capture of Kong Youde and the senior generals in exchange for rewards.

Kong Youde hurriedly ran back to Xingyuan and did not give any orders, and ordered the servants and family members in the mansion to set up a banquet and drink and carnival.

He had no choice but to think of suicide, and decided to drink and be a full ghost before he died.

Kong Youde instructed Kong Laosan, the head of the family, to bring more firewood and grass to pile in his bedroom and pour the fire oil on him, telling all the housekeepers and servants that after drinking this heavy meal, everyone went their separate ways.

Kong Laosan has been following Kong Youde for many years, and when he saw that his master seemed to choose to self-immolate, he advised: "Lord Wang, you are not even afraid of death, why don't you try to surrender to the general of the conquest?" ”

Kong Youde smiled bitterly: "This king knows that he will not die well after surrendering, so it is better to make a decision on his own, and if he does this, the family members who stay in Shengjing will be able to leave their lives." Leave this king alone and find a way to live! ”

Kong Youde and his family of nearly 100 people lived in Shengjing, and in order to show his loyalty and avoid the suspicion of his master, he took office in North Korea alone, with only servants, maids and housekeepers around him.

His son Kong Tingxun is only five years old, and his daughter Kong Sizhen is only three years old, since it is known that they are both dead before and after, why should he choose to live and die with Pyongyang in Jiannu and make a living for his children?

The commanders of the south gate will be Zhang Hongmo and Yang Huazheng, the two of them are dead and crazy, Liu Shiying, Sheng Zhong, Chen Bianwu, Fang Xianke, Liu Wuyuan and other generals are guarding the other three city gates of Pyongyang, and they have not been attacked.

However, the south gate formed a big rout in only half a day after the start of the battle, and soon there were routs to run away from the king of Gongshun, the main general Zhang Hongmo was frightened crazy, and the news that Yang Huazheng was broken spread to the whole city.

Liu Shiying, Chen Yuwu and others hurriedly led their families to Gongshun Wang Xingyuan, and just walked to the gate, only to see the sky-high fire inside, and the crackling explosion was mixed with the crying of many people.

They hurriedly rushed into the line to try to put out the fire, Kong Youde not only prepared a large amount of firewood and grass, but also poured fierce fire oil in advance, he locked himself in the room, overturned the oil lamp, and burned the company camp at once.

Liu Shiying grabbed the collar of Kong Laosan, who was kneeling on the ground to see off his master, and roared: "General Kong, what's going on?" Where is the king of obedience? Didn't he choose to set himself on fire? ”

Kong Laosan howled and cried: "General Liu, the king of Gongshun knows that he will definitely die, and in order not to harm his family, he chose to make his own decision, and he asked me to tell the generals that everyone has their own ambitions, and the defenders of Pyongyang City will listen to the respect. ”

Liu Shiying, Chen Bianwu and several traitor generals were suddenly petrified, and Chen Bianwu scolded: "Damn, I knew why I had to kill myself today and involved so many brothers." ”

Fang Xianke said with a sad face: "King Gongshun has cut himself, what should we do?" He's really harmful! ”

At this time, the shouting and killing sound from the direction of the south gate became higher and higher, and the sound of banging and popping was getting closer and closer, mixed with "Brothers, you have defected, arrest Kong Youde's gang and surrender the 'Red Flag Army' for a bright future!" ……”

"Kill Kong Youde, kill Liu Shiying, kill Kong Laosan, and kill the ...... who is a big official"

"Brothers, wake up, we are all bitter soldiers, we have a way to survive if we surrender, the worst are those who are big officials, as long as we see it, we will cut down all the general."

Liu Shiying, Sheng Zhong, and Chen Bianwu couldn't help but feel a stir when they heard these shouts, and then looked at the family members and soldiers around them, as if their eyes were very strange.
