Chapter 438: Kill One and Return Ten
Mang Gurtai sat in the mansion and listened to the people below report on the movements of the Changxing army, and his face darkened a little with every sentence he heard, and finally he couldn't suppress his anger and threw the tea cup on the table to the ground.
"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! Liu Xingzuo dared to betray Dajin, Ben Beile must catch this person and dig out his heart to eliminate the hatred in my heart! Mang Gurtai said angrily.
He himself didn't see through Zhang Dou's strategy to send reinforcements, and there was nothing to complain about, it was nothing more than the loss of some people.
There are more than 25,000 troops in the city of Fuzhou, and there are tens of thousands of Han people. If necessary, these Han people can be pushed to the city as meat shields, and I believe that Zhang Doubi will not dare to risk the world's condemnation of heavy artillery to attack the city.
But Liu Xingzuo's defection gave the people of the Han Army Banner a bad example that could not be worse, with Liu Xingzuo in front, maybe Zhang Xingzuo and Li Xingzuo would appear.
Once Mang Gurtai himself could not control the Han army banner, Fuzhou City would be self-defeating. The Jurchens in the city were less than half of the Han Chinese, and if the Han rebelled, they would be powerless.
The general Ai Bali immediately said: "Lord Belle! Nikan has always been untrustworthy, we might as well catch all the Nikan's family members now, don't worry that they won't give us their lives! ”
Another general, Tun Bulu, waved his hand and said, "Lord Belle can't!" The mud kans have become frightened birds, and once we all arrest people, I'm afraid that Fuzhou City will be in chaos immediately. It seems that the minions might as well reward them with their wealth and win over the mud! ”
Aibali glared at him and said, "Tunbulu! What's there to be afraid of? Aren't you scared by Changxingjun? Do what you do, and in the event of a rebellion in the mud, are you responsible? ”
Tunbulu's face turned red with anger from the nonsense of Aibali, and he roared angrily: "Aibali! If you start arresting people now, can you be responsible for the chaos in Fuzhou City? ”
The two became more and more arguing, and they got up and glared at each other.
Mang Gurtai was so angry by the quarrel of his two subordinates that he slapped the table hard and said, "Shut up!" Ben Baylor is here to do it, are you still going to do it? ”
"Minions don't dare!"
"Minions don't dare!"
The two hurriedly bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes, and Mang Gurtai's anger made them honest. One by one, they drooped their heads and went back to sit down, looking at each other without speaking.
Mang Gurtai thought for a moment and said, "What you two said makes sense, give some rewards to half of the Han people, and arrest the rest of the Han people's families." In this way, whoever dares to rebel will be easily solved by us, so let's do it! ”
"Lord Belle! Minions admire! The two said in unison.
After Zhang Dou swept the Zhuang Fort on the outskirts of Fuzhou, Chen soldiers were under the city of Fuzhou, and the recent good news came one after another, and Liu Xitian's artillery team also arrived.
After a long journey of ten days, the artillery team finally passed through the section of the road destroyed by the Jurchens and successfully reached the city of Fuzhou.
The arrival of the artillery team added a heavy weight to the siege of the Changxing army, and with heavy artillery, there was no need to dig tunnels and blast the city walls.
There are too many underground rocks here in Fuzhou, and it's okay to dig trenches. If you dig a tunnel, you don't know how long it will take, and it will be difficult to complete it in a short time.
The Changxing army set up a large camp in Fuzhou City, and the Changxing army of more than 10,000 people surrounded Fuzhou City. Mang Gurtai looked at the Changxing army outside the city, and felt depressed for a while.
Once upon a time, the Jurchens were still invincible in the field, but now they are blocked by the Changxing army in the city and dare not fight, what is the reason? Isn't it really wrong to stick to yourself?
Lan Guitian under the city of Fuzhou sighed for a while, and he was hung in a cage in the city for half a month.
If it weren't for the handsome, he would have died in Huangquan a long time ago, let alone know his wife Huang Cuiyi, and he would not have the scenery of the current captain of a thousand people.
Listening to the rumbling war drums of the Chinese army, Lan Guitian led his soldiers to escort the Jurchens from Antai Fort and Bijiabao, as well as other Tunpu to Fuzhou City.
Among them were men, women, and children, more than 2,000 people. Everyone wore clothing that only covered vital parts, shivering in the cold wind.
They walked barefoot on the gravel-strewn road, leaving a path of bright red blood. These people were taken to stand a mile away from the city, and everyone shouted for help in the direction of Fuzhou City.
There was a sudden chaos at the head of Fuzhou City, and the Jurchens at the head of the city were suddenly at a loss. What did the Changxing army do with these captured clansmen? Do you want to drive these people to siege the city?
Mang Gurtai also hurried to the city when he got the news, and when he saw the Jurchens outside the city, his eyes widened.
At this time, a cavalryman in the Changxing army rode a war horse to a place of arrows, took out an iron horn and shouted at the city wall.
"Listen to the Mang Gurtai in the city, the Tartars of Antai Fort and Bijiabao dared to use the Han people to drive the Han people to block the attack of the heavenly soldiers, so my marshal decided that the Tartars would pay for the slaughter of one Han with the lives of ten Jurchens!
A total of 517 people were killed by you in Antai and Bijia, so the Changxing army had to kill 5,170 Jurchens. The two thousand four hundred people here are only the first batch, until enough people are killed, otherwise the Changxing army will never seal the sword! ”
After shouting, the man ignored the reckless Gurtai who was stunned at the head of the city, and went straight to the horse. Seeing the cavalry of the Changxing Army leaving, Mang Gurtai shouted: "Zhang Dou, you dare!" If you dare to slaughter the Jurchens, Mang Gurtai will definitely exterminate all the Han people in Fuzhou City! ”
After he finished shouting his words, he stared at the Changxing army outside the city with red eyes, and didn't notice the strange gaze of the Han army flags at all.
Tunbulu hurriedly whispered behind Mang Gultai: "Lord Belle! Be careful! ”
Hearing the reminder of his general, Mang Gurtai realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing. I'm afraid that what Zhang Dou hopes most is to kill all the Han people in Fuzhou City by himself! Once there is chaos in the city, Fuzhou City will be self-defeating.
But as soon as the words came out, Mang Gurtai was still calming down, turned around and roared angrily: "Ben Beile said to do it, Zhang Dou Xiao'er dares to kill my Jurchens, and Ben Beile will kill him back!" Love Bali! Go and bring a hundred Han Chinese to the city for Benbel! ”
Aibali agreed to go down and prepare, while Mang Gurtai watched the Changxing army outside the city. He didn't believe that the Ming Dynasty, who had always prided himself on benevolence, righteousness and morality, would slaughter the Jurchens, so wouldn't the Jurchens retaliate?
The lives of the Han people have always been worthless, and every time they attack the city of the Han people, they are not to be killed, and they have never heard of when the Han people retaliate.
Just under the gaze of Mang Gurtai, the Changxing army outside the city pulled out two hundred people from the Jurchen captives and stood in a row.
The musketeers of the Changxing Army stood in front of the captives and raised their muskets in their hands at the officer's command.
In the surprise of Mang Gurtai, in the cry of the Jurchens, the fire guns rang out in pieces. More than 200 Jurchens fell in a pool of blood, and afterwards there were spear and shield soldiers who stepped forward to replenish the guns of each Jurchen, and no one survived at all.
The captured Jurchens panicked all at once, and for the first time they felt like cattle and sheep to be slaughtered.
Some people wanted to escape, but where were they the opponents of the wolf-like Changxing Army, and several people who wanted to escape were dragged back with their legs discounted.
