In the face of such an answer, Jin Qi knew that if he didn't come up with a little means, then he wouldn't be able to explain to the governor of the capital, the actual king of the Huaxia Army, and the merits of the corps.

Brother Zhu, Zhao Hu, Hu Kui, Bagyalu, Tian Bin, and other rising stars, as well as Su Zhiqing of the Southern Ming Kingdom, and many of the military generals of the Southern Ming Kingdom who were cast into the Southern Ming Kingdom and scattered, many people want to replace them, who have become the commanders of the corps, the officials and the commanders.

Now the Corps, the Corps, there are only a few people, Xuanyuan Longfei, Xiao Fei, Feng Wuyu are all at the Corps level, Li Dingguo is at the Corps level, because the battles on the Southeast Asian side are all commanded by him, he commands Ma Sanli of the Annan Corps, Liu Liangzuo of the Lao Corps, Li Chengdong of the Burmese Corps, and now Li Chengdong has been away for many years, wearing a sinful body, and he is terminally ill, but no one wants to replace him, because that place is too remote, reckless, dangerous, the work is not easy to do, and he can't make any contributions, So even if Li Chengdong is sick, there is no one to replace him, but the corps under his control is different, they are all elite divisions, and they are still near the center, where the leaders see it, who doesn't want to come up and get a lot of credit, get promoted and make a fortune.

So Jin Qi saluted Zhang Qiang and said loudly: "The task must be completed, no one can be arrogant in front of the Huaxia Army, and stubborn resistance will not end well." ”

After saying that, he left without looking back, to deal with the emergency, Zhang Qiang turned around and said to Xiao Fei: "It seems that we don't need to help, let's go, leave some troops here to contact and assist them, let's go clean up those cities that are still resisting, and strive to restore stability to this land as soon as possible, then I can rest assured, the only thing left is Daqing and Dajin, your infiltration and attack on Dajin should be accelerated, and strive to solve the matter within the year." ”

Yes, Zhang Qiang feels that his crossing is the most aggrieved crossing, it has not been 20 years since the Manchu Qing Dynasty was resolved, and the Han people were restored, although the beauties enjoyed it, the glory and wealth were enjoyed, and there were a group of people under his hands, and he himself became a leader from a civilian, but why is it not as powerful as others, three times five divided by two, and even the world is ruled, and now he has not even overthrown the Manchu Dynasty, but just survived Dolgon, survived Zhu Yujian, forced Zheng Chenggong away, and overthrew the Dutch, Portuguese, and Spaniards. Piggybacking on the British a little, the Americans are still fighting the Indians in their Nagadazi, and the French are still waging a vigorous war with the British.

Now Zhang Qiang can only say that he has accelerated some speed, Hong Chengchou and the Manchus have been operating here for more than 20 years, and the people here are no longer Han people, at least they are not pure Han people, pure Han people of the Ming style, they actually have a kind of consciousness and dependence on the Manchu people, they have begun to be loyal to the Manchus, and they will no longer think about the Ming Dynasty.

There are many reasons for this, mainly the more and more frequent taxation in the late Ming Dynasty, the peasant uprising spread to the entire north, causing the people's ideological turmoil, life turmoil, everyone complained about the Ming Dynasty, plus some premonition that the troubled times were coming Careerists added fuel to the fire, in fact, their sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty is disappearing little by little, becoming confused and helpless, and so the Manchus came over, they resisted, but the Manchus were very happy to eliminate them from the body, In fact, these Yangzhou people have migrated from the hinterland of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and fled to other places to be disappointed in the Ming Dynasty, attached to the Manchus, and want to be promoted to make a fortune and live a good life.

In the history of China, a dynasty is a country, the Ming Dynasty is dead, then the Ming people do not exist, the Ming Dynasty is a country with Han people as the main body, and the Qing Dynasty is a country with Manchu people as the main body, even those Ming people who were originally Han people, they also want to integrate into the Qing Dynasty and become Qing people, but their generation can not change themselves, and the Manchus do not recognize it, and then their descendants really regard them as Manchus, so twenty years have passed, this land is no longer the land of the Ming Dynasty, It's not the Han anymore, it's the Manchus.

This is different from the Huaxia Army just established in the past few years, everyone is still resisting the Manchu Qing, turmoil, frightened, everyone still knows from the heart that they are a Ming Han people, so the Huaxia Army can take advantage of this advantage, easily defeat the Manchu army, and then quickly absorb their troops, the people, stabilize the place, now there is no such thing, the Huaxia Army needs to do the same thing as the beginning of the expiration period, in order to quickly stabilize the area, otherwise, the guerrillas and the expiration of the rebels will continue, It has caused a lot of adverse effects on the Huaxia army, now is not the end of the full dynasty, everyone has long disagreed with the Manchu Qing in their hearts, and they all think about the so-called Ming master, autonomy, and other doctrines propagated by Sun Cannon, and everyone has begun to westernize from a Chinese to a Western-style Han and Chinese.

In short, it is the Warring States Period, everyone is a country, and now these people can no longer be distinguished by Han people, they are Lu people, they are Chinese army, Chinese people, well, now people's ideological level is this, 20 years have passed the period of Manchu and Han disputes.

Just as Zhang Qiang was walking out, he heard many people talking, "The Huaxia army is extremely brutal, sure enough, the king is right, they are beasts, they are here to destroy us, they don't give us a good life, they want to turn us into Huaxia people, these villains, bandits, ferocious beasts, they are not people, look at the houses they blew up with cannons, they have no human ......." ”

"Don't be afraid, fight with them, we won't let them have a good time,"

"People are too powerful, our Lu country is a small country, and it is surrounded by the Qing country and the Huaxia country, if you want to not destroy the country, the ambition of the wolf son of the Huaxia army has long wanted to destroy us."

"I heard that the king fled overseas and ran away with most of his army, and I hope that one day we will be able to return to the country."

"Alas, from now on we will live under the iron hooves of the enemy, and we are the people of the country."

"Hehe, why don't you say that you are from the Great Qing Dynasty, aren't you from the Great Qing Dynasty?"

"Alas, the Qing Dynasty is fighting with the Dajin Kingdom, and there is a Chinese wolf lying next to it, eyeing us, the people of the Qing Dynasty,...... The state of Lu is actually a part of the Qing Dynasty, and it is a ...... separated from the Great Qing Dynasty. ”

Zhang Qiang heard countless versions as he walked, people have forgotten their Han identity, maybe the title of Han is just called by some scholars, and the people below only have the memories of the last ten years in their eyes, and the memories of the last few years are short, such as Lu Guoguo, separated from the Qing Dynasty.

The war horse ran up the city wall along the steep slope of the city wall that was blown up, stood on the city wall, and looked at the city from afar, the advance of the Chinese army's battalion by battalion, all those who resisted, all were killed, the gunfire continued, and all the houses that could not be solved with guns were pushed with six-pounder guns, and bombarded the enemy's house a few times, the wall collapsed, and continued to be bombarded with scattered bombardment, often killing a large number of enemies.

There were many enemies, there were nearly 40,000 enemies who retreated into the city, plus more than 30,000 troops in the city, as well as the spontaneous counterattack of the people, so that the Huaxia army advanced extremely slowly, and had to mobilize more troops into the city.

The buildings of this era are still mainly wood, as a result, most of the city fell into the fire, and soon the Huaxia army retreated, just looking at the periphery, Yangzhou capital city since the construction of Hong Chengchou began, expanded several times, the population has increased a lot, depending on the situation, there are five or six hundred thousand people in the city, now, it is estimated that there are only about 100,000 people left, either killed, burned to death, or drowned in the sea on the way to escape.

In short, this city was destroyed, this is the second time that the late Ming Dynasty suffered such a catastrophe, but Zhang Qiang will not let history write this disaster, or to change the tone, for example, this is not the Han people, they are the descendants of the Qing Dynasty, the descendants of the Qing Dynasty, as the Han people, as a Han dynasty that was invaded by the enemy, occupied most of the country, and almost wiped out, their suffering is righteous and should be publicized, and these stubborn people are demons and monsters, and they should be burned to death, killed, and then exchanged for the stable life of the Chinese people in later generations.

"Hahaha," Zhang Qiang was amused by his thoughts, and there were some strong words, but what can be done, life is like this, no matter how ridiculous it is, it is reasonable in his own opinion, if he doesn't find a reason for this reason, then how can he gain a foothold in front of others, and how can he live.

Looking back again, Xiao Fei had already led his corps reinforcements to slowly go west, disappearing into the field, he didn't pay attention to the battle here, Zhang Qiang thought about it, he should also go, destroy those stubborn cities, this will be the territory of the Huaxia Army in the future, and will never be slaughtered by the enemy again, and will not suffer such a disaster.

At night, Jin Qi retreated to the outside of the city with his corps, and all the people who escaped from the city were detained in the prisoner camp and handed over to the guards of the punishment camp to be responsible for management, but the fire confused the whole city, and the Yangzhou capital city that Hong Chengchou had operated for twenty years was reduced to ashes in the fire.

The Golden Qi Regiment completed his mission and received military merits and honors.

Jin Qi left a field brigade to clean up the mess, sent other field brigades out to search for the remnants of the enemy, continued to advance with the troops of the corps headquarters, and went to Shandong Prefecture to take over the defense line of the Guards Corps, where he saw the reorganization of the Corps, take over the troops of the Guards Corps to defend Daqing, and the troops of Xuanyuan Longfei's corps will be transferred back to defend Henan Province.
