Chapter 174: Xingzuo Anyway
Watching his own red flag warriors rush to the city with an offensive, although they suffered a lot of losses on the way to attack, Azig's face was still slowly proud and proud, and his eyes were full of disdain and contempt when he looked at Liu Xingzuo. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Liu Xingzuo didn't see Azig's expression, he just lowered his head and bowed with his fists in salute, and said: "Congratulations to Lord Belle, my Dajin Kingdom Red Flag Army is really worthy of the name of Baturu!" The minion congratulated Lord Belle and settled the state city in a battle! After saying this, Liu Xingzuo's face was full of flattering smiles. Azig looked at Liu Xingzuo's flattering smile, ignored him, and then saw that the west gate of Dingzhou City had been opened, Azig waved his horsewhip and shouted: "Warriors with red flags, follow me Azig into the city!" ”
Azig was about to ride his horse into the city, and when he turned around, he saw that Liu Xingzuo was ordering the Fuzhou soldiers to hurry up and enter the city, so he quickly stopped his horse and shouted at Liu Xingzuo and others: "The Dingzhou city in front of me was defeated by my red flag warriors, and all the people and wealth in the city belong to the red flag!" You waste, Nikan, go after the Dongjiang deserters first, and then enter the city in two hours! ”
Liu Xingzuo, Liu Xingzhi, Jin Yingkui, Wang Bi and others, hearing this order, were indignant in their hearts, and they all secretly gritted their teeth and scolded angrily. Liu Xingzuo didn't say much when he saw this, and looked at Azig who was riding away, and smiled slightly on his face. Because Azig's move was much better than he imagined.
Seeing that his generals were still complaining, Liu Xingzuo turned his horse's head and shouted at his subordinates: "Pass on the command of the twelve Baylors!" The Red Flag Army entered the city, and the Fuzhou soldiers seized the east gate of the South Gate and pursued the deserters! Liu Xingzhi and the others heard this, and they all knew the meaning of the words, so they repeatedly conveyed this order in front of the army, and soon after everyone in Fuzhou heard this order, everyone was resentful in their hearts.
Of course, Liu Xingzuo didn't really work hard to chase Mao Chenglu, otherwise, Mao Chenglu would not have easily gathered more than 2,000 Dingzhou troops, and then easily fled from the south to the east and fled to the direction of Anzhou. In fact, Liu Xingzuo only sent a general with more than 100 people to the east to chase deserters, and the leader was Wang Bi.
After sending the so-called pursuers, Liu Xingzuo took the men and horses along the city wall to the south gate of Dingzhou City, saw that the south gate was wide open, and many people in the city were fleeing from the south gate in a hurry, he just restrained the troops to stand by, neither sent people to loot, nor sent people to intercept, just quickly sent people to occupy the south gate tower, and then sent Liu Xingzhi to lead people to quickly seize the east gate that now has no defenders. And Liu Xingzuo himself stood on the tower of the south gate of Dingzhou with his cronie Jin Yingkui, looking thoughtfully at the city of Dingzhou with a cry and howl.
Around the end of the day, the Red Banner Army captured the west gate of Dingzhou, and then Azig led his troops into the city first. Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and now the unitary hour has passed, and night has fallen. After Azig entered the city, he left a Niu Lu 300 bannermen to guard the west gate, and at the same time took care of hundreds of wounded soldiers who were unable to move, and then attacked the city with about 3,000 red flag braided soldiers with small losses, and wantonly burned and looted.
Although there are not too many residents in Dingzhou City, and there are not many wealthy households, Mao Chenglu's relatively complete treasury and warehouse in Dingzhou City still made Azig overjoyed.
In the warehouses of the city government offices, there are still a large number of food, cloth and ordnance materials.
Azig immediately had the treasury sealed for later transport, while the red-flag-inlaid soldiers under his command broke down from house to house, collecting everything that could be looted, such as silver, women, grain, cloth, and other things, including cattle, horses, livestock, young and strong people, and even iron pot kitchen knives, which were important family assets in the various tribes of Jianyu.
This unbridled plundering continued until nightfall and darkness came to an end. When the lights were on, Liu Xingzuo inspected the south gate and east gate under his control, leaving his cronies and generals to guard them, and then took Liu Xingzhi, Jin Yingkui and other henchmen to meet Azig.
At this time, Azig was in the Dingzhou Government Office not far from the south gate, drinking and eating meat and having fun with another of his subordinates, Meler Ezhen Eng ginseng. This official office originally belonged to Mao Chenglu, but now it naturally belongs to Azig.
I heard that Liu Xingzuo came to ask for a meeting, Azig was on the rise, and he didn't want to see him, so he was waiting for someone to order Liu Xingzuo and others to come to see him again tomorrow, but he heard Engesan say: "Master, after all, Liu Aita is the forehead of the first Khan, so it's not good to be too harsh." Since you still come to see you at night, you must have something important to do, so let's see you. Azig, who had drunk a lot of wine, nodded when he heard his henchman Engeshen say this, and said, "Okay, then take the time to meet these wasters!" ”
Liu Xingzuo, Liu Xingzhi, and Jin Yingkui were soon taken to the backyard of the Dingzhou Government Office. Azig saw Liu Xingzuo and the others coming in, and remembered the bad performance of the Fuzhou soldiers under the command of these people when they attacked the city in the afternoon, and he was very unhappy in his heart, and then said: "You Nikan waste, what is the matter with coming here to see me?!" ”
Liu Xingzhi's face turned angry when he heard this, but Liu Xingzuo didn't hear it, but said respectfully: "The minions came here to report to the Twelve Baylors. Mao Chenglu's troops in Dingzhou Dongjiang have fled to the direction of Tieshan, and must have been intercepted and ambushed by Erbeile's subordinates. The minions came over to ask for instructions, and tonight Dingzhou city defense arrangements were made. ”
Hearing this, Azig didn't care, and while continuing to drink, he said with a big grin: "Tonight, the city defense, the west gate and the north gate are guarded by my soldiers under the red flag, you can take those waste Nikan to guard the east gate and the south gate, and you don't need to ask about anything else." ”
As soon as Azig's voice fell, Engeshen said: "Master, is it in the direction of the east gate, and also arrange a Niu Lu to prevent the Ming army from attacking the city at night in the direction of Anzhou?" ”
Hearing this from Engeshen, Azig laughed and said, "You slave is cautious, but there is no need. If my army doesn't go to Anzhou City, it is already considered that those Nikan wastes have handed over good luck, how can they have so much courage to dare to attack the Eight Banners warriors of my Dajin Kingdom!? ”
After saying this, Azig waved his hand at Liu Xingzuo and the others very impatiently, and said, "You all go back and look at the city!" ”
Liu Xingzuo entered the city from the south gate, all the way to this official office, always paying attention to the road, seeing that the goal has been achieved, he doesn't want to stay any longer, and then he hugs his fists, turns around and leaves.
However, as soon as he turned around, he heard Azig scolding and shouting: "Go back and clean up your troops, and after this battle, don't forget to pick out five hundred from those Nikan, who are as timid as rats and retreat from battle, and punish them as the clothed servants of my red-flag-clad and armored men!" ”
Liu Xingzuo was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and in an instant, he was even more angry in his heart, holding back his anger, turned around and lowered his head and hugged his fists and said, "The slave understands!" ”
After saying this, seeing that Azig no longer paid attention to himself, and Liu Xingzhi was about to lose control of his anger, he hurriedly pulled the two of them and left.
As soon as he went out, Liu Xingzhi said hatefully: "This Azig is simply too deceitful!" We must do it as soon as possible, if we don't kill this bastard, Lao Tzu will not be able to eliminate the hatred in his heart! ”
Liu Xingzuo quickly got on the horse with the two of them, and under the escort of the Chinese sergeants, they soon returned to the south gate. went up to the city tower, Liu Xingzuo immediately sent people to recruit generals and colonels above the capital division of the Fuzhou Army. Half an hour later, more than 20 generals arrived.
Liu Xingzuo said: "I summoned you here overnight because there was an urgent matter. Because today's siege of our Fuzhou army is unfavorable, the twelve Baylors have just ordered to strictly investigate and investigate the responsibility of the Fuzhou army's unfavorable siege of the city, in addition, as a punishment, from tomorrow, we will take a thousand from our Fuzhou army, bring their families, and enslave the people with red flags and armor! ”
As soon as Liu Xingzuo's words came out, more than 20 generals in the room were in an uproar. Of course, they knew that the Fuzhou army might face severe punishment if it was not good to attack the city at noon, after all, the Jianyu Jurchens had never been soft on the punishment of those who retreated from the battle and were afraid of battle. Therefore, after listening to what Liu Xingzuo said, he was full of fear at the moment.
At this time, Liu Xingzhi said: "Big brother, is our brother just allowed to be bullied?" Today's siege is not favorable, how many of our brothers have been hacked to death by the Banner Soldier Supervision Team?! Now that another 1,000 slaves are fined, how many people are left in our Fuzhou army?! Without the Fuzhou Army, wouldn't we be even more slaughtered by others, and there would be no room for self-preservation?! ”
After Liu Xingzhi finished speaking, Jin Yingkui also stood up and suddenly said: "Mr. Liu, just take the brothers to rebel!" ”
As soon as Jin Yingkui's words came out, everyone else was stunned, but someone immediately responded: "Lord Zongzhen, take us back!" Caught Azig and dedicated it to the Ming court, if you want to be prosperous and rich, it's not easy! ”
Liu Xingzhi also said: "Big brother, it's the opposite!" In the past few years, our Fuzhou army has fought for these Saodazi in the east and west, in the south and in the north, without merit, and there is still hard work?! But what do these sons of Sao do to the brothers?! It's not like you can fight if you want to, and kill if you want to!? So far, it's just against the fuck! Mao Shuai's army in Dongjiang Town is just outside the city, we sacrificed the city and captured Azig, are you afraid that there will be no high-ranking officials?! ”
Seeing that Liu Xingzuo's younger brothers Liu Xingzhi and Jin Yingkui all said so, the rest of the other generals naturally knew how to do it, plus the surrender of Jianyu for a few years, because Jiannu itself was poor, so these people not only did not get any benefits, but also did all kinds of hard work and tiring work, always go first when attacking the city, and after the city is broken, it is always the last group to enter the city, which is basically equivalent to saying that there is a share in death, and there is no way to make a fortune!
Therefore, after knowing the above intentions, the generals of the Fuzhou Army, who were originally the Han people's descendants, all broke out at once, and everyone demanded that the traitors return to Ming. One of them, Xu Erxian, also said: "Lord Zongzhen, it's the other way around! Stay on the Jurchens' side, and sooner or later we will die! Either die in front of the battle or die behind the battle! In that case, what hope is there for staying here? We are originally Han Chinese, and it is natural to be anti-fucking! ”
Seeing that the heat was almost over, Liu Xingzuo suddenly stood up, snorted, pulled out the saber on his waist, swung it down, cut off the coffee table in front of him, and said loudly: "Brother Xu Erxian is right!" We are originally Han Chinese, and it is natural to be anti-fucking! Since Saodazi doesn't treat us Han people as people, why should we rush to be cattle and horses for them! I have made up my mind, from now on, the Fuzhou army will return to the Ming Dynasty anyway, we will not be Tartar lackeys, and we will not sell our lives to the Tartars! ”
