Chapter 458: The Butterfly Effect

The angry Qing soldiers still chased after them, and the cavalry galloped to show off their might, which scared Bai Guangen, who was stripped naked, into the Kuizhou army.

A Kuizhou army general who led the team grabbed him, put a knife on his neck, and warned: "Don't run around, be careful that the knife doesn't have long eyes!" ”

Bai Guangen looked back at the rushing Mongolian cavalry in a panic, bent over nervously and said, "Okay, okay, don't run around, don't run around." But my lord, there are Mongolian soldiers chasing after you, so if you don't hurry in and avoid it, it's very dangerous! ”

In front of it is the low wall wooden fence of the Ming army, and when you enter it, the Mongolian cavalry can only sigh in vain.

The general of Kuizhou glared at the Mongolian soldiers who were approaching quickly in the distance, waved his knife in the air with a big grin, swung it, and said contemptuously: "I'm afraid of a bird!" They'll screw your head off and use it as a night pot! ”

When Bai Guangen heard this, his heart was relieved, and he was about to give it up, but he suddenly found that what he said was wrong, and he was about to distinguish it, but he was pushed by the Kuizhou officer, fell into the captive pile and put it on a rope.

The Han soldiers who surrendered were rushed to one place and searched one by one, and the Han soldiers who were searched nervously kept looking back, lest the Mongols rush up. But the Kuizhou army who searched the body didn't care, and seriously touched it up and down.

Behind the captives, two rows of bird-gunners and three rows of pikemen, lined up in a circle, protecting thousands of people huddled together, and the ropes of the bird-gunners had been lit and set up on the crescent axe.

Behind the low wall of the Ming army, Yan Mingde, the commander of the artillery team, squinted his eyes and carefully glanced out of the lookout of a 300-pound large Furlong machine gun, stretched out one hand, made a figure of eight to estimate the distance, and beckoned back with his other hand, signaling the gunner to load the subtube.

He slightly adjusted the elevation angle of the Furlong cannon, stood up and got out of the way, put down a red flag that had been erected for a long time, and one of the gunners stepped forward and lit the fuse.

Twenty large Furlong cannons placed behind the low wall fired at the same time, the range of this cannon is not as good as the Shenwei cannon, and it can hit a few hundred steps, but it is better than the rate of fire, and several sub-barrels are charged in turns, and four or five cannons can be fired in a short time, which can be regarded as god speed.

A cannon smashed through it, blowing up a wall of smoke, and the Mongols were very clever, except for a few unlucky ghosts who were killed by iron bullets, the rest of the men changed direction in the high-speed movement with superb riding skills, threw a shower of arrows while turning, and then turned back and ran.

The rain of arrows broke through the air in the smoke of gunpowder and plunged into the mud, and the birds and gunners standing at the front of the Kuizhou army were dozens of steps away.

Li Tingyu stared at the Mongols running away in the smoke, and after confirming that they would not come back, he ordered again and again to quickly bring in the Han soldiers who were strung together with their bare hands.

So a group of Han soldiers lined up in a double column were watched and escorted into Shiling Pass in the midst of the soldiers, everyone was tied up with ropes, unable to resist, these Han soldiers, including Bai Guangen, curiously and secretly looked at the Kuizhou army who were watching them around, while worrying about what fate they would end up with.

On the upper floor, Li Dingguo looked at the long queue, frowned and said: "These prisoners are troublesome, now that the enemy is present, where are the manpower to watch them?" ”

Wang Huan had a different opinion, he pressed his hand against the stone wall, the corners of his mouth smiled, the breeze blew the hairband on his head, gently fluttering, chic and free: "You can't just look at this, Dingguo, think about it, my Ming Dynasty and the Tartars have fought to the death for so many years, when have I ever seen thousands of people turn against us in front of the formation?" No, maybe there hasn't even been a single person, but today there is, and it has always been a precedent for the Ming army to surrender to the Tartars, and for those who did not have the Tartars to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. What does this mean? ”

What does that mean? Li Dingguo's eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "It means that between the Ming Dynasty and the Tartars, the unequal balance of power like solid ice no longer exists, there is the first army to surrender to our front, there will be a second, a third, from now on, if the Jianzhou slave wants to send people out, you have to think about it, will these people not go back, haha!" ”

Wang Huan high-fived and said, "That's right! Bai Guangen, this guy, may have been forced to be helpless, so he took this risk, but he didn't know that he had set an incomparably exceptional precedent! From then on, the Tartars, who were already suspicious of the Han army, must be even more suspicious! And the Han army will also feel that since generals like Bai Guangen can do it anyway, why can't they? In addition to those diehards who follow the Tartars to the black, most of the people who pursue selfish interests will have a wait-and-see attitude, and the grass on both sides of the wall will no longer serve the Tartars. ”

"Take in a Bai Guangen, a large number of Han soldiers in the middle, why not do it!" Li Dingguo laughed: "Adults do business, and they really never lose money!" ”

"Send the people of the righteous army to send these Han troops to Taiyuan, cut off their braids, and let them attack the city." Wang Huan's smile became a little cold: "Since you have done a lot of bad things for the Tartars, you have to forgive your sins, otherwise you will be sorry for the people of the Han family who were poisoned by them!" ”

After a pause, he said again: "As for Bai Guangen, leave him behind, let him write letters, and send them everywhere, no matter whether he knows anyone he knows or not, as long as he works on the Tartars' side, send them, I will make the Tartars unpeaceful!" ”

"My lord, this is a draw from the bottom of the kettle!" Li Dingguo gave a thumbs up and said, "In this way, where can a suspicious Tartar trust half a Han person?" Wouldn't the Han soldiers who remained in the Tartar camp live like a year? ”

He looked at the Han army rushing into the city, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for them, those confused faces, panicked brains, where would have he thought that just a foot above his head, two young people who didn't look very vicious had already made a plan to use them like skinning their bone marrow.

"I don't know what Dolgon's expression is on the other side?" Wang Huan took out the clairvoyant mirror and looked at it: "I really want to take a look." ”

……

On the other side of the battlefield, Dorgon had left.

Returning to his big tent, the first thing he did was to isolate the entire camp, and the camps of the Han army were all adjusted and distributed to all corners of the camp, which were divided by the camps of the Mongols and Jurchens, unable to connect with each other, and avoiding the core of the camp.

The remaining 2,000 people under Bai Guangen's department were disarmed without knowing anything, escorted to the front of the battle, and beheaded one by one in front of all the Han army generals, staining the earth with blood and converging into a small river.

The severed heads were piled up in the middle of the battlefield, and they could be seen by both the Qing and Ming armies.

Li Guoying, Sun Long and others looked at all this speechlessly, expressionless, not knowing what they were thinking.
