126 Suizhou Attack Battle
Suizhou, Xu Dingguo didn't expect Cao Bianjiao to come in person, seventy or eighty thousand soldiers and horses surrounded Suizhou City, Xu Dingguo was also restless, he only had 12,000 people in his hands, and nearly ten times the soldiers and horses besieged him on all sides, it can be seen that Cao Bianjiao didn't want to give him a way out.
"It's been so long since the letter to Prince Su was sent, why is there no news at all?" Xu Dingguo was anxious to stomp his feet, after killing Gao Jie, he knew that the imperial court would definitely not let him go, so he immediately sent a letter to ask Haoge, the prince of Qingsu in Duoman, for help, Haoge was stationed at the boundary of Guangping Mansion, according to which it was only three or four days away, it stands to reason that he should have led the army to come.
......At this time, a deputy general under Xu Dingguo came to Xu Dingguo, and Xu Dingguo was also overjoyed at the moment, this was the confidant he sent to the north to ask for help.
"Has Prince Su's soldiers and horses arrived?" Xu Dingguo hurriedly went up and asked.
"General, Prince Su said that he did not dare to use troops privately without following the holy decree, please find a way for the general himself."
The words of the deputy general made Xu Dingguo's mood fall into the ice cellar, cold to the bone, think of a way by himself, how can he think of a way, the other party is Cao Bianjiao, ten times the strength of the army, what else can he think about, he has already embarked on this road, does he still have a chance to turn back, even if he wants to, will Cao Bianjiao let him go, impossible things, he can imagine with his toes.
"Scatter the army and hold it out, you must hold it!" Xu Dingguo shouted almost hysterically.
In Cao Bianjiao's handsome tent five miles away from the city, Cao Bianjiao looked at Zhang Jinyan in front of him, and looked directly at Zhang Jinyan with a pair of eyes like going deep into the abyss, which made Zhang Jinyan a little frightened.
"After Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, the criminal minister fled back to his hometown, and heard that the new emperor inherited the unification in Nanjing, so he gathered the righteous army and served the country, but was defeated by Li Zicheng's soldiers and horses, so he had to come to the general, and asked the general to write to the emperor, the heartfelt righteousness of the criminal minister."
"Shameless!" Cao Bianjiao was also angry at the moment, pointing at Zhang Jinyan and scolding: "Do you think that the north has fallen, I don't know the news, heartfelt righteous act, you still have the face to say these four words, Zhang Jinyan, you are also a person who has read the book of sages, how can you be embarrassed to say such disgusting words, don't you blush?" ”
Zhang Jinyan saw that Cao Bianjiao's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said: "The criminal minister doesn't know what the general means?" ”
"When Li Zicheng approached the Beijing Division, a minister proposed to stick to the aid and gather the world's soldiers and horses to the king, you Zhang Jinyan refused to adopt the correct suggestion of urgently recruiting soldiers to stick to the army and calling on the king of the world to come to the rescue, and concealed the military situation and did not report it, do you think others don't know? After Li Zicheng captured the Jingshi, it was still you Zhang Jinyan and the university scholar Wei Zaode flattering to greet the hundred officials, and they were also beaten and ridiculed by the eunuch Wang Dehua, you think I don't know, you can explain it honestly! ”
"The general forgives the sin, the criminal minister is also helpless, Li Zicheng is cruel, the criminal minister will be like this in order to save his life, the hometown of the criminal minister has been occupied by Li Zicheng, and he can't go back, so he will say so, the criminal minister is willing to cut his post for the people, and he will die by farming ......"
"People like you, if you surrender to Li Zicheng, it's just that, but you still feel that our army is cheating, you don't die, the world is unfair, come to someone, behead this person and sacrifice the flag, tell the soldiers of the three armies, this person collaborates with the enemy and betrays the country, and the crime is unforgivable."
"Yes!"
"General, general, spare your life, spare your life......" Zhang Jinyan kept begging for mercy, but Cao Bianjiao turned a deaf ear, this guy hit the muzzle of the gun by himself, he was already very unhappy, he still did such a despicable thing, if he didn't kill him, Cao Bianjiao would not be Cao Bianjiao.
"Order, send someone to shout to the city, Xu Dingguo betrayed the country to seek glory, and sold it to the Manchu Qing Dynasty in Henan, the crime is unforgivable, if the officers and soldiers of the three armies can wake up in time, they can not accept the Zhulian, and they will be exempted from punishment, just capture and kill Xu Dingguo here, and the rest of the people can not blame the past, if they are obsessed, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Attacking the heart is the top, breaking the city is the bottom, the general is smart, Xu Dingguo's soldiers and horses are just bewitched by him to dare to resist the imperial army, presumably there will not be many people who are desperate to go to the black with Xu Dingguo, and we don't have to spend too many troops to hold on here!" Yuan Shu also spoke up at the moment, praising Cao Bianjiao's clever strategy.
"It's just a small skill of carving insects, although I want to avenge Gao Jie, but I don't want to make a big move because of this, let Li Benshen and Li Chengdong and Mrs. Xing divide Gao Jie's soldiers and horses, strictly enforce military discipline, after breaking the city, don't kill a single person in vain, as for Xu Dingguo's whole family, it is still at their disposal, there is a debtor and a master, and you can't mess around, otherwise the military law is ruthless!" Cao Bianjiao said that he could let these people vent the anger in their hearts, and Xu Dingguo's family was left to their disposal, but after the defeat, Suizhou once again became the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the people could not be killed in vain, they were the king's army, not bandits.
"Humble duty, let's go to herald!" Yuan Shu also gave up.
"Brothers in Suizhou City, the general has an order, Xu Dingguo betrayed the country for glory, has betrayed the Ming Dynasty and surrendered to the Manchu Tartars, are you willing to follow him to be a slave to the Tartars? Don't follow Xu Dingguo anymore and be obsessed......"
"Soldiers, surrender, the general wants Xu Dingguo alone, and he will not hold you accountable, you are all deceived by Xu Dingguo, surrender, capture and kill Xu Dingguo, the general will not pursue you, are you willing to follow Xu Dingguo all the way to the black, he can be knighted if he betrays the country to seek glory, what can you get, it is just a stepping stone for him to become an official and a knight, come back......"
Yuan Shu deliberately selected many local soldiers from Henan to shout outside the city, using the Henan hometown dialect, and all four gates launched a heart-attacking tactic, and three or five people took turns shouting to persuade them to surrender.
"What to do? Go home? "Many people began to waver, where would they have to do those things behind Xu Dingguo, when they killed Gao Jie, these people did not participate, it was all done by Xu Dingguo's personal guards, many people didn't know what happened later, knowing that Cao Bianjiao led the army to come, many of them didn't know why, they just ate food as soldiers, and they didn't care what Shangguan did, they just obeyed orders, but they were all bloody men, no one wanted to follow the Manchu Qing as a slave, and follow Xu Dingguo to commit treason, Even if he fights with Li Zicheng, it is an internal contradiction, but in terms of his attitude towards foreign races, he is very firm.
"Brothers, don't listen to their nonsense, as long as they enter the city, they will definitely attack us, we can't surrender, open fire, open fire......" One of Xu Dingguo's henchmen will also pull out his saber at the moment, and give the order to set off the cannon to stop the other party from continuing to incite people's hearts.
It's a pity that no one makes a move, they will be angry, kill one person, scold fiercely, and don't know who was the first to attack, shouting: "Brothers, the father and son of the Xu family want to betray the country and join the enemy, and my Henan boy can't follow, kill them, and welcome the general into the city." ”
"Welcome the general into the city!" Many people shouted along, and the emotions that were passed out one after another broke out in the city, and the soldiers guarding the city and the overseers fought each other.
