[The big chapter of 4,000 words, everyone is surprised? ] If you are happy, you will collect]
"Jingzhou City is broken......"
"The city is full of broken ......"
"The Fuhan army washed the city of Jingzhou in blood......"
……
The news of the destruction of Jingzhou City was like a monstrous wave, along the Yangtze River, and swept across at an unimaginable speed. The first reaction of everyone after hearing the news was to be stunned, then trembling in their hearts, and then trembling in body and mind......
This is Jiangling City, this is the garrison of the Jingzhou generals, and there are tens of thousands of bannermen. In Huguang, Jingzhou is a place independent of the political territory of Huxiang, with a transcendent and superior status.
It is also like a shackle, pressing on the hearts of thousands of living beings in the two lakes.
A series of fierce battles and anxieties between the two armies in Hunan, and the Manchu Qing army that came and went to Hubei again and again, saw more and more pressure and power oppression and looting day by day, and a hundred years later, the people of the two lakes still looked at Jingzhou and 'looked at each other'.
Although Jingzhou's Shashi was one of the four famous rice markets in the early and middle Manchu Qing Dynasty. This town outside the city of Jingzhou, if it were not for this war, even in the winter would be a busy scene, this natural market town without the protection of the city wall, because it is close to the Yangtze River, the country of abundance on the top, and the Jianghan Plain on the bottom, and has become a transshipment and trading center for cotton and grain, which is related to the annual income of thousands of farmers in the two lakes. But Jingzhou is still 'looked at differently'.
Unlike the later Tian Dynasty, Jingzhou has always occupied an important place in the economic puzzle of the Manchu Dynasty's Huguang land, even if it is inferior to the Three Towns of Wuhan. However, the geographical location of Jingzhou determines the prosperity of Shashi.
This is a city that is related to the fate of thousands of people in the two lakes. In this era, the vast land of the lake occupies a pivotal and important position. As a result, the city of Jingzhou was broken. One can imagine how huge the impact this will have on the entire Huguang.
And when the news spread along the Yangtze River to Anhui, Jiangxi, and Jiangnan, the entire lower reaches of the Yangtze River were shocked. The people in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, no matter how they saw the Fu Han Army and the Chen family before, now this news clearly tells them that you must face it squarely in the future.
Before, Chen Ming led his troops south along the Han River, and when the soldiers pointed to Jingzhou, the border of Jiangnan was not without the people and even scholars and scholars secretly discussing what would happen if the Fu Han army really defeated Jingzhou, but that was just speculation. In the city of Jingzhou, there are 20,000 or 30,000 banner people, and in the middle of Qianlong, the era when the Manchu Qing Dynasty was strong, the banner people with hardcore crops were very good.
Jiangning and Hangzhou, both of which are full of cities, and tens of thousands of banner people live. It has absolutely tremendous power in the military, political, and business circles. They have a high political profile above all Han Chinese, regardless of whether the latter is rich or not, whether they are officials or not. In a popular word, a banner man has privileges, that is, a nobleman.
When thousands of Han people's cognition of the banner people was still in this unbreakable impression, Jingzhou City was broken, and it was really broken. Twenty or thirty thousand bannermen will fall into the hands of the Fu Han army like pigs and sheep to be slaughtered. The Fu Han army danced the golden hoop stick to hit the Monkey King of the Jiuxiao Heavenly Palace, and shattered the very deep old impression of the banner people in the hearts of thousands of Han people, especially then the news that Chen Ming washed tens of thousands of banner people in blood, which simply made the entire Jiangnan explode.
Many people realize that this piece of innocence above their heads has been pierced. Although now it is only a small hole that has been broken.
"The slave took the liberty of thinking that the emperor wanted to postpone the transfer of the troops of Liangjiang out of the province. Because of the destruction of Jingzhou City and the huge earthquake in the south of the Yangtze River, people's hearts fluctuated, and troops were suddenly transferred out, or they were afraid of changes. "Gao Jin, the governor of Liangjiang and the governor of Jiangsu and the governor of Caoyun, has quickly reported to Beijing, requesting that the transfer of Jiangnan soldiers and horses be suspended. Because Jiangnan, where people's hearts are fluctuating, if they see the Qing army being transferred out in large numbers, chaos may not be born, but the prestige of the Qing court is really going to crush the dust.
And when thousands of people were stunned and demented by the news of the destruction of Jingzhou City, outside Jingzhou City.
More than a thousand gray-haired old men were pulled in front of the battle by Chen Ming. Yes, before the battle.
The Fu Han army took the city of Jingzhou, but he had another enemy in front of him. Al Yajiang was looking at the Fu Han army with blood-red eyes. If Chen Ming led his troops away at this time, Al Yajiang would definitely lead the Qing soldiers like a crazy hyena and follow behind the Fu Han army.
Chen Ming is now in the midst of the heavy encirclement and suppression of the Qing army, so he is unwilling to let go of the great opportunity to face the Arya River alone.
Yesterday, in front of Al Yajiang and in front of more than 10,000 Qing soldiers, he cut off the heads of hundreds of old, young, women and children of the Eight Banners. These people are all the family members of the officers and officials of the Eight Banners stationed in Jingzhou, whether they are the elderly or children, as long as Chen Ming is still alive, none of them remained. Some of those people will inevitably be ravaged and insulted by some filthy things, but this is inevitable. The Fu Han Army is not the red army, Chen Ming's military discipline is very strict, but there is a hole for the families of captured officials, the families of the gentry who have been confiscated, and the women of the banner people in front of them. As long as you are willing to use military merit points to offset, or take silver to use military merit fields to 'buy joy', the Fu Han Army does not prohibit it.
Chen Ming is not a saint with absolutely noble ideology and morality, and he has not committed 'cleanliness syndrome' in the area of ideology and morality.
Even he himself took in a seventeen-year-old beauty. is not a flag man, Chen Ming is very timid, but he doesn't dare to sleep with the enemy in his arms at night. The woman surnamed Liu, with the double name Bangyun, is the youngest daughter of the magistrate of Jiangling County. This Liu Zhi County from Gangneung County couldn't cut off his hand, and his whole family was arrested. But because of Liu Bangyun, their family is very safe now, and 'Liuzhi County' was also hacked to death by the Fu Han army.
Since he has laughed at other people's daughters, Chen Ming is not a ruthless person. The 'aftermath' was handled cleanly.
Chen Ming didn't specifically inquire about Liu Bangyun's past, at the age of seventeen, she was like a big girl in this era, Liu Bangyun should have set up a family affair, and was even on the verge of getting married. But the cheap man is a soft bone, and Liu Bangyun is obviously from it, so what does Chen Ming care about the rest. The Liu family has already cut off their ties with the past and 'become a new person'. All Chen Ming has to do is to laugh at a big beauty who can score at least 90 points. Of course, Liu Bangyun is a small foot, a very beautiful little foot. It's just that Chen Ming is not interested in that.
……
Jingzhou City at night is as bright as day when it is lit by bonfires everywhere.
Groups of soldiers of the Fu Han Army with swords and guns shuttled through the streets and alleys of the city, whether it was Seoul or Namancheng, the soldiers patrolling the sentry must always be vigilant. The cold wind was blowing.
The night covered up the blood of the day, and the stench of blood was blown away by the cold wind. If it weren't for the loss of the dragon flag of the past on the city, it would not seem to have changed much for the ordinary people who were lucky enough to keep their families safe. But for the flag-bearers in the city, the sky has been stabbed.
In a courtyard somewhere in the city, two soldiers of the Fu Han Army in iron armor stood at the mouth of the alley with their guns raised. Not far away, there were three corpses lying in the corner, and in the ditch pressed by the corpses, blood and ice were mixed together, and they could never be separated.
The two soldiers of the Fu Han Army could not smell a trace of blood in their noses, but this did not make the nervous expressions on their faces much lighter. Especially the younger one, estimated to be less than twenty years old, staring nervously at the streets left and right of the alley on one side, and looking back at the alley with a somewhat unbearable face on the other side.
When the young soldier set out for his squad, he did not expect to find a sneaky figure in the patrol, and then their squad followed the hasty escape figure to the cellar in the backyard of a private house in this alley.
Two adult men were the first to be hacked to death, and an old woman in her fifties and sixties was shot through the heart. There are also three children, the oldest is four or five years old, and the youngest is still in swaddling. That little face was in a peaceful sleep, but when the screams of the adults sounded, he also turned from sleeping to crying, crying loudly. Tears fell one by one down the red little face, and the next moment he or she was cut in two by the squad leader.
The moon-white quilt, the moon-white swaddling clothes, and the blood instantly dyed the two quilts that were much shorter from the fracture red.
Then there were two children, and the young man could still remember the frightened, painful, miserable, and miserable eyes of the child's mother after the child was cut in two. Young people feel that they may not be able to forget it for the rest of their lives......
Two women were crushed by a group of people on the beds in the cellar in a pool of blood from their husbands and children. The young man was very angry, and at that moment he even regretted that he had watched that year more, otherwise this happy family would still be able to exist with Hemeimei. That child will not even have a chance to really take the first step in his life and leave this world again.
The veteran beside him held down the angry him. "They're flag men!" The five cold words wiped out all the anger in the young man's mind.
Isn't this scene tragic now? When the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs one hundred and twenty years ago, how many happy families of the Han ancestors suffered such the same misery?
They are banner people, and the Fu Han army is Han Chinese. They were on duty tonight, and the soldiers were already resentful. Because Jingzhou City was broken today, so many banner women and children were caught, as long as they are willing to spend money or give up a few points of meritorious service, no matter how beautiful they are, no matter how noble the girls were before, they can be pressed under them tonight. As a result, it was their turn to be on duty for the night.
In this class, in this small group, there is already resentment. Complaining that their own luck is too back, and the night is tonight. This is also the fundamental reason why their class killed so violently after discovering this family of flag men who were hiding. Angry, they're flag men anyway!
The youth and the veterans around him did not mix. They were driven to the mouth of the alley to stand sentry. In the event that another patrol arrives, or worse, is encountered by the gendarmerie, someone must be on guard.
"Let's go, don't look like you haven't seen a girl, let's go......"
At the exit of the cellar, the squad leader shouted at the subordinate who was still shaking his ass. "Here we are." The soldier's jerk suddenly intensified, and then he groaned beautifully like a soul flying out of the sky, and his tense body relaxed. The soldier wore his trouser belt and walked up the stairs, and on the bed was a middle-aged woman in her thirties and forties, whose fair body was not covered with bruises, lay on the bed with her limbs wide open, her neck hunched to the side, her eyes were round, and the soldier had broken her neck just now.
In another bed not far away was a young woman, her black hair covering her face, revealing her fair flesh. The bodies of the two children lay between the two beds, and the bodies of the two men who had been thrown back to the cellar by the soldiers, and the old woman in her fifties and sixties, half-swaddled not far from the water tank, collapsed at the top of the staircase......
The cellar mouth was covered, and everything was covered.
The day dawned, a new day arrived, and everything that was yesterday disappeared forever along with the dark night of yesterday, which had disappeared. Youth is still youth, veterans are still veterans, squad leaders are still squad leaders, and classes are still a class.
The veteran is actually not old, he is only thirty years old. After breakfast, I fell asleep in my cleaned room.
……
Outside Jingzhou City, on the edge of the Yangtze River, the camp of the Arya River standing by the river is in front of it.
"Bang ......"
More than 1,000 old men and old ladies of the Eight Banners heard gunshots behind them, which made the crying crowd instantly quiet, and then ran forward in panic. As the old men and women ran, dozens of fallen corpses stood out in the clearing.
What Chen Ming has to do now is one very simple thing, he wants to use these old bannermen as shields to protect the Fu Han army to reach the close range of the Qing army.
There are more than 1,000 old men and old ladies, all over the age of fifty or sixty. The living environment of the banner people is obviously much stronger than that of the Han people, and the twenty or thirty thousand people in Jingzhou can pick out so many old ones. Many of them are approaching or over 70 years old.
"Let's go, go forward......"
The butt of a rifle smashed on the back of an old man, who was wearing only a thin coat and coat, and immediately fell to the ground. Before he could get up again, a bright light had already cut off his neck.
The human head rolled and circled, revealing the old man's frightened and hideous face. The bubbling of blood soon stained the ground red.
"See? Whoever dares not to run hard, who dares to run slowly, this is the end! ”
The soldiers of the two or three hundred meters Fu Han Army were mixed in the middle of this group of old men, they were wearing iron armor and holding knives, and they were wiping grenades on their waists. This group of them is the spearhead of the big charge, that is, the first troops.
Behind these men were two neatly arranged battalions of muskets, and two armoured battalions of armoured men in the same iron armor.
On the opposite side of the Qing barracks, Chen Ming did not shell it. The banner soldiers of Jingzhou City ignited the gunpowder magazine at the last moment, and in the battle of Jingzhou, Chen Ming retrieved much less gunpowder from the Jingzhou treasury than it consumed. Since the gunpowder aspect, this war is a loss-making sale.
"Brute, brute......" Al Yajiang saw the crowd rushing on the opposite side, and the Fu Han army picked out two poles in the ranks, which were clearly written, Jingzhou Eight Banners. It was really tearful, blood was dripping from his eyes, and the irrepressible violence was born in his heart, he wanted to kill, kill, kill......
