Li Shutai also encountered almost the same encounter, under the persuasion of Cao Bianjiao, the former Ming general Gao Jinku in the face of the unfavorable situation, but Gao Jinku is much smarter than Zhang Yingyuan, directly took advantage of the chaos, directly killed Li Shutai, led the army to surrender, saved a lot of trouble.

The 20,000 horses in the Qingliangshan military camp have been taken, and more than 10,000 people in the Shence Gate and Jinchuan Gate have also been pacified, and the remnants of the city are chased and killed by the people of Nanjing, and there are few left, and if they do not die, they are captured, and there are not many Qing troops in the entire city of Nanjing, and there are few people who really escape, and most of them either die or surrender.

Cao Bianjiao also paid a painful price, the loss of the old battalion soldiers and horses amounted to 3,000 people, these are all veterans, Cao Bianjiao's heartache is also painful, but there is a price to fight the war, and he knows very well that he can only take care of their families.

"Bring it up......" Cao Bianjiao returned to the former general's mansion, and the Jinyi guards appeared in front of Cao Bianjiao with more than a dozen people, these people are now disgusting and ugly, they are all the noble ministers of the court who surrendered to the Qing army this time, Zhao Zhilong, Liu Liangzuo, Tang Guozuo, Wang Duo, Xu Yifan, Jia Hanfu, etc., at this moment they are all shaved off their hair, with Manchu money rattail pigtails, as ugly as they are.

"The general spares his life, the general spares his life......" The moment they saw Cao Bianjiao, everyone knelt on the ground, praying for Cao Bianjiao's forgiveness, they never dreamed that the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which was like a bamboo, would be defeated, and Cao Bianjiao, who was far away in Sichuan, would kill back, everything was beyond their expectations, and now it has become such a situation, they can only beg Cao Bianjiao to spare his life.

"You and the others, either the lord or the court officials, have no shame, the civil servants do not know the shame, the generals have no loyalty, the Manchu Qing Dynasty went south, did not think about the strategy of serving the country against the enemy, but took the initiative to surrender the city, Ma Shiying is a traitor, but he still has a little backbone, he would rather flee than surrender, you are good, and want to beg me to spare my life, what face do you have to stand between heaven and earth, all imprisoned in the edict, and after welcoming back to the emperor, then dispose of it, remember, don't waste food, just give them a meal every day!"

"Yes! Go ......" Jinyiwei took all the people away like driving pigs and dogs.

Liu Kongzhao, Yang Longyou, and Yuan Shu also came to report the situation in the city to Cao Bianjiao.

"All the gates have been controlled by our army, and all those soldiers have collected their weapons, and there are many Qing soldiers, what should I do?"

"Longyou, you can deal with this surrender matter, those who are willing to surrender, whether they are Manchu or Han, can leave them with a life, and settle them in southern Jiangxi and Hunan to open up the wasteland, and those who are unwilling to surrender will be killed, don't waste food, among the Han people, those who are willing to continue to serve the country, I also welcome them, and they will be included in the army after being dispersed, and let them choose for themselves." has killed too many people, Cao Bianjiao is also a little tired and wants to take a break.

"The various yamen have also been all controlled, no losses, there are some chaotic people fishing in troubled waters, and they have also been disposed of, although Nanjing was implicated in the war this time, but because of the proper arrangement, basically there is not much loss, in addition, the gold and silver that Duoduo they searched along the way, and they also need to report to the general, there are more than seven million taels, as well as countless antiques, calligraphy, paintings, jade, etc., in addition, the mansions of these rebellious people have been controlled, how to deal with their families, It also needs the general to speak...... "Yuan Shu threw a lot of problems to Cao Bianjiao at once, but fortunately, it is not a difficult matter.

"This harvest proceeds, all into the treasury, send capable soldiers to guard, for those traitors of the mansion, Bo Ying, you take people to dispose of one by one, all the gold and silver things are sealed in the treasury, cultural relics and classics, sent to me, the other is their family, since it is the family of the rebel minister, even if I want to let them go, but the law of the country is strict, I can only do things according to the rules, arrest them all, waiting for disposal. The second is to issue a notice, everything in Nanjing City is as before, so that the people have returned to their own business, no more riots, if there is something, you can report to the Ying Tianfu Ya, otherwise it will be punished according to the treachery. ”

Cao Bianjiao also ordered them one by one, how to deal with them, it's all a matter of later, you can be imprisoned first, and after the situation is stabilized, it is not too late to deal with it, Duoduo has been captured alive, half dead, and the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers and horses circulating in Jiangdong, Cao Bianjiao will also take advantage of the victory to attack, solve them, and then go north to recover the lost territory of the Huai River, at least there must be a barrier to defend the south of the Yangtze River.

"In addition, I sent a letter to Chen Zilong in Ningbo, asking him to go to Hangzhou to defend the emperor, control Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng, these traitors, and wait for me to destroy the remnants of the enemy, and immediately welcome the emperor back to Beijing. There is also Zhang Yingyuan, available, stay by my side, as for that Gao Jinku, he is quite brave, and he also stayed, two people made meritorious contributions for their crimes, and they were not investigated for their previous crimes, and they were both awarded the post of guerrilla general. ”

"Yes......"

Late at night, Cao Bianjiao was tired of lying on the Taishi chair, a gust of breeze blew in outside the house, which made him sober and comfortable a lot, Cao Bianjiao continued to deal with post-war matters, this time Nanjing suffered a lot, and needed to stabilize as soon as possible, in addition, he also had to arrange the next war, there were forty or fifty thousand Qing troops in the Suchang area, and a group of men and horses were chasing Zhu Cijiong, he could not relax, and needed to be solved as soon as possible.

Now he has almost 200,000 water infantry troops, which is enough for him, which he is not worried about, but how to solve the war as quickly as possible at the minimum cost needs to be considered by him, the commander.

"General, please ...... with tea"

"Put it down!" Cao Bianjiao answered, looked up, and a woman appeared in front of him, her face was like a peach blossom, fresh and refined, which made Cao Bianjiao's eyes light up, he didn't remember when there was such a maid in the house!

"Who are you? How come I haven't seen you? Cao Bianjiao asked with a serious face.

"Concubine Liu is like this, it is Qian Qianyi's side room, and it is Lord Yang Longyou Yang who sent the concubine to serve the general!" Liu Ru replied with a calm face, stepped forward and put the teacup in his hand to Cao Bianjiao.

Cao Bianjiao immediately understood, Yang Longyou is really not idle, there are a lot of things, and there is this idle time, but Cao Bianjiao is very willing to enjoy such treatment, Qin Huai Bayan's Kou Baimen has been included in the room by him as a concubine, a Liu Ru is now a maid, Cao Bianjiao feels funny when he thinks about it.

"Qian Qianyi is dead, you are a rebel family, it stands to reason that you should be guilty of the same crime, I am afraid that you will also be punished and beheaded, Long You is saving your life, he gave you to me, just to let me accept you into the house, so that you can avoid death, I have also heard of you, I know that you have always served the country, and it is really not worth it to be affected by a villain like Qian Qianyi, you will stay from now on, are you willing?"

"Thanks to the general's dislike, the concubine is willing to serve the general!" Liu Ru gladly accepted Cao Bianjiao's proposal, he had never seen Cao Bianjiao, this was the first time, but he heard a lot about Cao Bianjiao, Yunwen Yunwu, brave and decisive, with the prestige of King Cao Yan, and the reputation of General Cao, and some people compared him to Yue Wumu, Liu Ru has been in love with him for a long time, and is naturally very willing to serve a hero like Cao Bianjiao.
