Chapter 682: Blame for yourself

As soon as you kill these people from the Hukou Shanxi Chamber of Commerce, you and I will say a word, and soon quarrel in this pavilion in the Fan family's compound.

Most of them didn't say a word, and directly pushed all the things they did with the Fan family in the killing of Hukou onto the Fan family, so angry that Fan Yongkui and Fan Sanba quarreled with several other proprietors and shopkeepers in the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce in Hukou.

Suddenly, Fan Yongdou, who had been quietly thinking about his thoughts for a long time, and at the same time quietly listening to the quarrels of various families for a long time, held the teacup in his hand for a long time, which had been cold, "snapped", fell to the ground, and immediately fell to the ground.

Fan Yongdou's actions successfully stopped everyone's quarrel, and everyone's eyes shifted to him.

At this time, I only heard Fan Yongdou, who was haggard but also gloomy, said fiercely: "Those who have become big things since they have come to be informal!" I have been a businessman for generations, and I have always made a fortune by relying on my ability, and we don't owe anything to the court!

"Besides, since the Emperor of the Zhu family sat in the country, the four people of the world, agriculture, industry and commerce, and my generation of merchants sat at the bottom! No matter how rich your family is, who are you not inferior when you see it?! We worship the imperial court as a god, but when has this Ming imperial court been looking at us?! ”

Fan Yongdou suddenly finished saying this paragraph inexplicably, I don't know if he fell into the memory of some past events, in short, he was silent again.

Just as Wang Dengku, Zhai Tang, Huang Yunfa and the others were waiting impatiently and were about to speak, Fan Yongdou suddenly said again:

"What is my hometown, I have been a merchant all my life, as long as I have silver, where can I not stand on my feet, where can I not survive!?

"The Jurchens conquered Mongolia, and although they failed for a while today, in terms of their strength, the north of the nine sides was under them, and they retreated to the north of Saibei, and they are still a big country of thousands of miles!

"Besides, who of my Fan family and your family didn't make a fortune from export trade?! In the future, if the Dajin Kingdom occupies the grasslands outside the border, which of you does not need the care of the Dajin Kingdom?!

"If there is no border trade outside the mouth, how can I settle down as a businessman?! Our chamber of commerce has always been in the same spirit, weal and woe, at this time, Hugh wants to say that your home is your home, my family is my home! ”

At this moment, Fan Yongdou was of course terrified in his heart, but everyone was waiting for him to make an idea, and he could only calm down.

He had been to Dajin Kingdom, and the 400,000 horsemen who rode across the grasslands were so arrogant and domineering, but in the face of the iron horses of Dajin Kingdom, they were not defeated again and again, and they fled again and again.

Let's just say that the Ming Dynasty, the old empire that has been handed down for more than 250 years, since the beginning of the Wanli period, the army of the Ming Dynasty has not been defeated and retreated in the face of the Jurchens of the Dajin Kingdom, and has repeatedly lost troops and lost cities!

As a leader of the Jin merchants who has been crisscrossing the business sea for decades, Fan Yongdou has a very clear view of the situation since Wanli, and if he is asked to choose one of the three strengths of the Jurchens, Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty to bet on the treasure, he must not hesitate to bet on the Jurchen Dajin Kingdom.

Because he had been to Liaodong, he had seen the discipline, courage and good fighting of the army of the Dajin Kingdom, and the eloquence and politeness of the lord of the Dajin Kingdom!

Therefore, this time, he really never imagined that in his mind, the Jurchen army of the Dajin Kingdom, which was dissatisfied with ten thousand and invincible, would be defeated in the hands of the Ming court, which was full of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the army was rotten!

Although this result was completely unexpected and unbelievable to him, the fact that the three bailes of the Dajin Kingdom fled back in embarrassment made him have to believe it.

The matter has come to this point, no matter how panicked you are, you must come up with an idea immediately!

Fan Yongdou first used those words to comfort himself and others to temporarily stabilize the scene in front of him, and then continued:

"The matter of killing Hu Kou in the past should not be, it is not that he should not help the Jurchens, but he should not get out of the garrison surnamed Jiang!

"It's just that now that the matter has come to this, it is meaningless to investigate whether the responsibility of the Fan family or the responsibility of the Chamber of Commerce is greater!

"For the sake of today's plan, the dog is not wrong! The only way to leave the killing mouth first and avoid the limelight for the time being!

"Since you have come to Fan Mou here to discuss matters today, if I Fan Yongdou want to have an idea, then follow me out of the customs with the soldiers and horses of Dajin State, if you have your own plans, then Fan Mou has nothing to say, please do it!"

The traitor gathering in the Fan family's compound did not end until the sun was in the west.

In the end, the proprietors and shopkeepers of the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce did not reach an agreement, but left the Fan family's compound in a hurry, returned to the shops and warehouses of each family, and immediately began to pack up their belongings and prepare to leave Hukou as soon as possible.

The action of killing these Han merchants in Hukou naturally could not hide from Mang Gurtai's eyes.

At this time, Mang Gurtai, did not know that Huang Taiji's Zhenghuang Banner and Yue Tuo's inlaid red flag also suffered heavy losses, he only said that his Zhenglan Banner suffered the greatest loss this time, not only brought into the territory of the Ming Dynasty Zhenglan Niulu lost, but also after entering the customs, the large amount of gold and silver cloth looted all the way, but also lost a fine light with his hasty defeat under the Bauhinia Pass.

At this time, when it came to the mouth of Kill Hu, his Zhenglan Banner and Badali's Brain Wen Korqin cavalry were all hungry and cold, and they wanted food but no food, gold and silver without gold and silver, and their morale was close to collapse.

Mang Gurtai and his men had never experienced such a defeat.

Therefore, the experience of escaping north this time was like a nightmare, which made the leaders at all levels of Zhenglan Banner and Brain Wen Horqin complain, and the morale of the remaining 5,000 troops was even lower to an extreme.

Seeing that the defeat of the army of the Dajin Kingdom in the territory of the Ming Dynasty this time was decided, if he didn't take the last opportunity to grab some property before evacuating, he followed Huang Taiji on an expedition of thousands of miles, and lost thousands of bannermen, what did he get in the end? !

Therefore, after escaping to Kill Hu Fort, at the instigation of his son Guanggon, Epilun and others, Mang Gurtai's hungry wolf-like eyes quickly locked on the Shanxi merchants who were piled up with goods in Kill Hukou.

Huang Taiji attached great importance to the merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and even gave the Fan family two first-class Han army reserve positions, but for Mang Gurtai, these people were insignificant.

Seeing that the army of the Dajin Kingdom was about to withdraw from Guanwai, withdraw to Saibei, and withdraw to Liaodong, did they want to keep the mountains of property piled up in the mouth of the killing Hu to celebrate the New Year for the Ming army generals and colonels who came to recover the lost land?

From Kuku and Tun to the north and further east, thousands of miles of desert grasslands along the way, he has walked, where there is nothing but wind and sand and grass?

There are only a handful of tribes, all of them are so poor that they can't live happily, how can they supply him with the army of the blue banner of the reckless Gurtai Zheng?!

What's more, now, there is a lot of wind and snow on that desert grassland, and there is no grass left, and he is about to return on a long journey, what can he do to maintain the life and morale of his subordinates?!

Even if these people are Huang Taiji's people, what can they do?!

Huang Taiji has pitted him like this, can't he get some compensation from these people!

What's more, if it weren't for these people who instigated and induced Huang Taiji to go south to attack the Ming Dynasty, he would have been able to fall to this step today? !

Therefore, on the night of the same day, the cold wind was howling and dripping into ice in the killing Hukou, and Mang Gurtai ignored the persuasion of the sect worshipping the mountain and the cold monk's machine, and ordered the only remaining Zhenglan Banner army and the Brain Wen Horqin cavalry, totaling more than 5,000 people, to take action against the various businesses of the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce that were packing up and preparing to flee in the killing Hukou!

Fan Wenhuan, who had been in charge of acting as the liaison between the Fan family and Baishan, was shocked and went to find the sect Jueluo Baishan and Yangguli's eldest son Ahadan to no avail, and went to Mang Gurtai again, and took out the mangguertai's promise that he was not allowed to kill a single grass and tree in the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce in Hukou, in a vain attempt to organize Mang Gurtai's burning, killing and looting.

As a result, Fan Wenyu not only failed to stop the looting of the Zhenglan Banner and the Brain Wen Korqin cavalry, but also because he moved out of Huang Taiji's command to stop Mang Gurtai, he was drawn and hacked to death on the spot by the momentarily angry Mang Gurtai.

Things have come to this point, and no one can stop the looting and killing in the mouth of the killer.

Before Fan Yongdou and the others packed up, the soldiers of the Jianyu Zhenglan Banner rushed into the Fan family's compound.

Seeing that these soldiers with the blue flag killed men, went up when they saw women, and robbed money and goods when they saw them, Fan Yongdou, Fan Yongkui and Fan Sanba couldn't take care of the large amount of wealth and goods they were killing Hukou, and rushed out of the house under the escort of many family members to find Fan Wenyu for refuge.

It's a pity that they sent people to search for almost all of Kill Hu Fort, but they didn't find Fan Wen's whereabouts, and finally had to flee south.

As a result, these people took advantage of the chaos of the Zhenglan Banner and the Mongols to loot the gold and silver treasures, and actually escaped from the south gate of the Hukou and went all the way to Shuoping City, where the right guard of Datong was located.

Along the way, Fan Yongdou, Fan Yongkui, Fan Sanba and others, not far from the south gate of Kill Hukou, they also met Wang Dengku, the owner of Zhai Dadong, Zhai Tang, and Huang Yunfa, the owner of Huang Da.

These people have always seen the wind and rudder, good at drilling camps, killing the chaos in Hukou, and immediately fled south with the gold and silver they had packed, and none of them fell, and all of them escaped with their lives.

These people, under the protection of their respective business partners or business armies, bumped into each other not far from the south gate of Hukou, and everyone scolded Jianyu beasts.

However, scolding is scolding, and they are helpless against the "treacherous" behavior of the nobles.

It was also at this time that these merchants, who had pinned their hopes on Jianlu to defeat the imperial court, so that they would monopolize the foreign trade of the Ming Dynasty in the future, suddenly found that they had turned their backs on their own country and nation, and in the end they were not people inside and out, and they became helpless and nothing!
