Chapter 648: Phoenix
Outside the city of Zhangjiakou was in shambles, with corpses and wounded lying on official roads, on the sides of hills, in fields, by the woods, and in front of and behind the houses of villages.
The wilderness was littered with discarded kitchen knives, rolling pins, sticks, and dung forks, numerous and tattered shoes of all kinds, the air was filled with the smell of blood, and moans rang one after another, it was an inexplicable war, and the wounded outnumbered the dead.
"The Tiance army attacked, and the medical team was dispatched to treat the wounded." Feng Yuanshan issued an order with a frosty face.
Every soldier of the Tiance Army has a first-aid kit, but to treat tens of thousands of wounded, the medical team's medicines are also limited, and they are definitely not enough. It seems that some traditional Chinese medicine practitioners are going to be invited from Zhangjiakou, but fortunately, the Chinese medicinal materials of the major families are also bulk goods.
While studying the arrangements for post-war work with instructors and chief of staff, Feng Yuanshan personally went to the battlefield to understand the situation.
Suddenly, the cry of a baby attracted him, and he looked for the swaddling clothes in the arms of a dead woman, and a baby was crying loudly.
Feng Yuanshan strode over, picked up the baby, and coaxed: "Oh, oh, oh, Nizi doesn't cry, don't cry." ”
After coaxing for a while, he handed the child to the medic and said, "Send it to the orphanage camp." ”
Instructor Qin Ankang's face sank like water, and he said coldly: "Driving women and children to rush into battle, this is a big sin, and none of those Ming army generals can be spared, they must all be captured alive and tried and executed." ”
Feng Yuanshan waved his hand and said, "No need to interrogate, seize the law on the spot." ”
……
Datong City has the name of "Phoenix City", the city is very majestic, the circumference of the main city has thirteen, four miles, the city wall is more than four zhang high, the city tower, the corner tower, the enemy platform tower, the wild goose tower and other pavilions are in a ring row, densely packed.
The four city gates all have urn cities, around the city wall, there is a deep moat, the city is on all sides, and there is also a city about each city, every city is five miles to seven miles, the whole city layout, according to the topography, it is like a phoenix that wants to spread its wings and take off.
The buildings are surrounded by columns, the walls are strict, and Datong City is worthy of being a Xiongcheng outside the Saiwai. In the 21st century, Datong City was rebuilt by the government to reproduce the majesty of Datong City in the Ming Dynasty.
Such a fortified city, if the defenders are strong, is difficult to break. But facts have proved that the most important factor is people, with the solidity of Datong City, whether in the face of Li Zicheng or the Qing army in history, they all surrendered without a fight.
Zhangjiakou was basically pacified, and the Seventh Brigade of the Public Security Army set off from Zhangjiakou and arrived outside Datong City.
The Seventh Brigade of the Public Security Army was greeted by Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Datong, and Wen Shiyan, director of the Datong Office of the starting point city.
Wen Shiyan accurately learned the time when the Seventh Brigade of the Public Security Army arrived in Datong through telegrams, so he notified Wang Pu in advance to go out of the city to greet him.
Datong City since Chongzhen four years, after the eunuch Liu Wenzhong monitored the Datong military horses, for many years after that, there was no eunuch in the city.
Datong City was originally the town of Datong Town, and it was the place where the general army of Datong Town was stationed. In addition to Wang Pu's main barracks, there are about 10,000 defenders in the city, including three generals, called the Datong Left Battalion, the Datong Right Battalion and the Datong Front Battalion, and a guerrilla member, called the Fenwei Battalion.
Therefore, Datong City is not Wang Pu alone, and Datong Governor Wei Jingyu is also in the city, in addition to Datong is the residence of the king of the Ming Dynasty, and there is also the prefect of Datong in Datong City, so Wang Pu wants to go out of the city to take the Tiance army into the city.
Accompanying Wang Pu to greet the Seventh Brigade of the Tiance Army, there were also Wang Dengku, the head of the Wang family, and some close businessmen and gentry in Datong City.
"Brigadier Ma has worked hard all the way." Wen Shiyan stepped forward and said warmly to Ma Lin, the commander of the Seventh Brigade of the Public Security Army.
"This should be Director Wen, right? You've been waiting for a long time. Ma Lin raised his hand and saluted.
"I've seen General Ma!" Wang Pu stepped forward to salute and said, although he didn't know Ma Lin's status in the Tiance Army, but Wang Pu didn't dare to slack off on the people from Tiance, after all, he had been a prisoner of the Tiance Army.
Ma Lin also saluted Wang Pu and said: "The commander of my family explained before leaving, saying that General Wang understands the righteousness and takes the overall situation into account, and is a friend of our Tiance Army. ”
Ma Lin was originally Wang Yue's guard and was sent to the regimental training unit, and then he was the commander of the public security corps, and after the expansion, he became the brigade commander, and the speed of promotion was not fast. Wang Yue knew him better, so he sent him to Datong to raid the Jin merchants.
"It's an honor for this general to be friends with the Tiance Army!" Wang Pu said with a smile on his face: "I'll introduce General Ma to you." ”
He introduced some people around him, and when he introduced Wang Dengku, the head of the Wang family who was obese and had a strong sense of wealth and nobility, Ma Lin looked at him, his tone was soft, but his expression was serious: "The king's shopkeeper has abandoned the dark and turned to the light, and the commander of my family is very happy." ”
Wang Dengku said embarrassedly: "The villain is ashamed, after Wang Zongbing's teaching, he suddenly woke up." "He was forced by Wang Pu's pressure, and even more so by the pressure of the starting point city, many strongholds in Shanxi were destroyed, and officials who had anything to do with the Jin merchants were constantly killed, which is strange and scary.
Ma Lin continued: "I, the Tiance Army, came to Datong City to arrest traitors, confiscate thieves' property, and many other matters, and the king's shopkeeper must cooperate with him. ”
Wang Dengku nodded and said repeatedly: "This is nature, this is nature." ”
According to the resolution of Wang Yue and Wang Pu, the Wang family is guilty, but it is not a great crime, so after giving half of the family property, he can be exempted from criminal responsibility, which of course makes Wang Dengku and others feel painful, but compared with the small life, the family wealth is secondary.
Moreover, after checking everyone, Datong Town, and even Shanxi Town, are their royal family, and the benefits they gain are more than they lose.
Ma Lin said to Wang Pu again: "Our army has traveled all the way, and I have encountered many passers-by and businessmen, but I don't know that the thieves in Huayan Temple and Shanhua Temple in the city are alert? ”
Wang Pu knew the situation in Datong City, and the Tiance Army had basically mastered it through the people in the office.
The streets and alleys of the main city of Datong are vertical and horizontal, the layout of the city, is to take the four arches as the center, with four main streets in the southeast and northwest, among which the general town office, the county school is in the east, the northwest has the government and the government school, most of them are the literati and scholars live, there are Huayan Temple, Shanhua Temple and the commercial street of the courtyard lane in the southwest, and most of them are the monks and businessmen who live.
And the shops of the major families are mostly on the southwest streets of Datong City.
Wang Pu said with a smile: "General Ma, don't worry, everything is under the control of the general." ”
"That's very good, then let's go into the city at once!" Ma Lin said.
Under the leadership of Zai Wang Pu, the 7th Brigade of the Public Security Army began to enter the city.
There are three city gates in Datong Dongguan, which contain forage factories, military drill grounds, camps, etc., and the residents also multiply and have a large population. Like the military and civilians of Zhangjiakou, the pedestrians of Dongguan who came and went suddenly saw a strange army coming over on the street, and it was a guest army, and they knew that something was going to happen.
Someone finally recognized the identity of this army.
"It's the Tiance Army, the Tiance Army has entered the city...!"
Sure enough, not long after, all the gates of Datong City, as well as the gates ......of the main city, were all closed.
