"Yes, we don't have artillery now, we can only rely on grenades, are you sure?" Liu Zhenyu looked at the three soldiers standing in front of him, full of expectations for them.

The soldier at the head pondered for a while, "Division, can the grenades blow up the city gate, I don't know, we can put these grenades on the city gate and then detonate it." ”

"Well, as long as it can be detonated safely, I don't believe that the gates of Gongbu are made of iron." Liu Zhenyu was a little relieved, since Yuan Chonghuan and Zhu Youzhen had tried, there was no reason why it would not work in Gongfu.

The three soldiers saluted Liu Zhenyu, then carried a grenade and ran quickly towards the city gate.

Liu Zhenyu's gaze followed the soldiers until they completely disappeared into the city gate hole.

It didn't take long for Liu Zhenyu to see two soldiers coming out of the city gate, "The last soldier should be detonating a grenade." ”

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang, not only the Tibetan soldiers on the head of the city were startled, but even the Ming army outside the city was also stunned by the huge roar, it turned out that the grenades were put together, and there was such a great power.

The gunners couldn't find their target at the top of the city, so they stopped firing for the time being after the roar.

Liu Zhenyu shouted: "Closely monitor the head of the city and cover the return of the soldiers." ”

There were only two soldiers who came back, "the division seat ......"

"How? Did the gates blow open? ”

"It's exploded, the city gate is wooden, and the outside is just wrapped in a layer of iron sheets, and it's completely blown up."

Liu Zhenyu looked around, as if the soldier he was talking to just now was not there, "Aren't you three people?" What about one more? ”

"Military seat, squad leader, he has sacrificed ...... in order to detonate the grenade"

"What? Sacrificed? Why haven't you heard the Liaodong Army say that people will die? Liu Zhenyu felt that it might be that the Liaodong Army felt that it was a big failure to die, and he didn't say anything.

"Master, the time for the grenade to detonate is too short, and it is not something that can be avoided by human speed, and the squad leader is for us...... He himself ......"

Liu Zhenyu was a little depressed, but he completely sprinkled this depression on the Tibetan army, "When you enter the city, if you encounter any resistance, you will be killed." ”

The soldiers of the 1901st Brigade immediately rushed to the city gate.

There were originally a few defenders inside the city gate, but with a loud bang, they were all stunned, and now their ears are still "buzzing", and they can't even hear the footsteps of a large number of Ming troops entering the city.

After the Ming army entered the city, they saw several defenders and immediately pulled the trigger, and those Tibetan soldiers became ghosts under the gun in a daze.

After the soldiers entered the city, they seized the head of the city, expanded the search area, and shot all the Tibetan soldiers who were blocking the front.

Liu Zhenyu walked at the back of the 1901st Brigade, and when he passed through the city gate, he saw the body of the squad leader.

The squad leader was lying on the ground, apparently the shock wave of the grenade's explosion, pushing him from behind, and his back was full of fragments from the grenade's explosion, and the whole back looked like a hedgehog or a porcupine.

"Clean up the squad leader's body, bury it properly, and set up a tombstone for him." Liu Zhenyu took off his military hat and saluted the squad leader, and the soldiers who followed Liu Zhenyu also saluted one after another.

When Liu Zhenyu entered the city, the Ming army had already occupied the entire east city gate, and the soldiers were waiting for a new battle order.

"Take the battalion as a unit, move freely, one battalion guards the city gate, if anyone wants to go out of the city, kill them, and do their best to receive soldiers from outside the city into the city."

The sound of flintlock pistols suddenly resounded throughout the city, and all Tibetans with weapons in their hands were forced to die in the city, even if they were holding farm tools in their hands, they were likely to be the substitutes for the Tibetan soldiers, otherwise what to do with farm tools in the city, and there was no farmland to cultivate in the city.

After the 1902nd Brigade and the 1903rd Brigade entered the city, the Ming army advanced faster, especially the 1903rd Brigade, they were all cavalry, riding horses and wielding swords, as long as they encountered Tibetans, whether they were soldiers or civilians, they were all hacked to death with knives.

Some soldiers were unlucky, and not a single Tibetan could meet them, so they broke into people's houses, slandered them as soldiers, and stained their sabers with blood.

By evening, the defenders in the city were basically wiped out, and the Tibetan soldiers who had escaped with their lives laid down their weapons and blended in with the people, who were originally the people, and should be said to have returned to the people.

In fact, the Ming army and the Tibetans basically could not communicate and exchange directly with each other, and there was no need to say anything to them.

From the Tibetan homes, the soldiers did not find any property, even the large families in the city, and the property was very limited, which disappointed the soldiers who broke into the Tibetan homes and hoped to make a small fortune.

I don't know who mentioned yì, saying that the Tibetans all believe in Buddhism, and a large amount of property may have been gathered in the temple, so a large number of Ming troops poured into the city's Hongjiao monastery Cuozong Gongba Monastery and Baijiao monastery Gangbu Monastery.

The soldiers did find a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry from the temple, and in the face of the monks' obstruction, the soldiers did not show mercy and directly slashed with their knives, and some soldiers suspected that the source of the huge wealth in the temple was unknown, and they arrested the monks who did not resist.

Although the soldiers entered the city, they did not have time to sleep peacefully throughout the night, they searched everywhere in the city, and the Tibetans spent the night in fear.

Only Liu Zhenyu was sleeping.

At dawn, Liu Zhenyu, who was still sleeping, was woken up by the soldiers.

The commanders of the various units reported to him the results of the battle, and after preliminary sorting, they found more than 14,000 taels of gold, more than 167,300 taels of silver, as well as jewels, classics, and grain of unknown value.

These belongings mainly come from the monasteries, followed by the government offices, and ordinary Tibetans do not have much money to spare.

However, the soldiers who searched for the government office reported to Liu Zhenyu a piece of information that surprised him very much: in the warehouse of the government compound, more than 400 corpses were found, the blood had long since coagulated, and the time of their death was at least a day ago, and it was impossible for them to be killed by soldiers of the 55th Division.

"Why did they kill their own people?" Liu Zhenyu also couldn't understand that these Tibetans who believed in Buddhism were too unpredictable, "Is it a sectarian dispute?" ”

"Whether it's a sectarian dispute, we don't know, the clothes on these corpses are similar to those of Tibetans, it may be Tibetans, the only doubt is that the heads of the female corpses do not have those small pigtails of Tibetans."

"Braids?" Liu Zhenyu remembered that no matter how old Zang Nu was, as long as she still had hair, she would tie a lot of pigtails, thinking that this time in Wusizang was a riot against the Han people, he was shocked: "Have you inquired?" ”

"Back to the teacher's seat, not yet, we don't speak Tibetan, we must let the interrogators ask about this matter."

"Okay, let the interrogators immediately check and see if they are Han or not." Liu Zhenyu was a little irritable, the Ming army originally came to rescue the Han people, if because of the arrival of the Ming army, the Tibetans were afraid that the Han people would cooperate with the Ming army outside the city, so they killed these Han people, then these Han people died unjustly.

The Ming army had arrived, and they saw that these Han Chinese, who had been bullied by the Tibetans, were about to be free, but they did not see the victory of the Ming army, and they died in the darkness before dawn.

When it was almost noon, the detective came to Liu Zhenyu to reply to him: "Master, the main force of the Tibetan army has been completely wiped out outside the city, and the local officials of the Tibetan Khan have also been killed by the soldiers. ”

"Don't be verbose, pick up the important thing, are they Han or not?" Liu Zhenyu was very dissatisfied with this long-winded interrogation, he kept thinking, this siege was too hasty, if the 19th Army arrived before attacking the city, would these people and the squad leader not have to die? He already blamed himself a little for this.

"We worked hard to find out that three days ago, hundreds of Han people who disobeyed discipline were imprisoned in warehouses." Interrogation could not determine whether the bodies were Han Chinese.

"Wouldn't it be over if you said that earlier?" Liu Zhenyu was already convinced that these hundreds of Han Chinese had been killed by the Tibetans, "The Tibetan clothes on the corpses may have been deliberately put on by the Tibetans before they died, but they ignored the braids on Zang Nu's head." ”

"That's probably it." The interrogation can only be approximate, in fact, he also speculated.

Liu Zhenyu's blood gathered in his head in an instant, "Pass my military order and slaughter the city." ”

"Master, think twice, after all, they are ordinary people, not soldiers, not executioners," Seeing that the division commander was angry, the soldiers hurriedly comforted him, "Da Ming has a military order." ”

"I will take revenge a hundredfold for those who kill my people, when will they treat the Han people as human beings?" Liu Zhenyu gritted his teeth, he suddenly lowered his voice and said to his own soldiers: "The military seat is in Chayu, isn't it the same way?" ”

"This ......" the pro-soldier was speechless.

The order to slaughter the city was quickly conveyed, and the soldiers, who had been tossing around the city all night, raised their sabers again, this time, the saber was aimed at those who had no ability to resist, including the elderly, women and children.

In the city of Gongbu, there is a river of blood, and hell on earth is nothing more than that.

The inhabitants of the city were killed, and the soldiers searched again for their belongings, this time with great generosity, and they searched for any place where they might have hidden their belongings, and they were almost three feet into the ground.

Thinking of their possessions, the soldiers naturally did not let go of the rich temple, even though it had already been looted by them.

The soldiers surrounded all the temples, even the temples outside the city, and they slaughtered the monks of the temples by military orders, then searched for all the belongings, and finally set it on fire.

Before Mu Qiyuan arrived at Gongbu, Liu Zhenyu had already disposed of the corpses, and the corpses of the Tibetans were gathered outside the city, burned clean by a fire, and the corpses of more than 400 Han people were transported outside the city and buried.

After the two massacres of Chayu and Gongbu, there are almost no Tibetans left to the east of Gongbu.

While the Nineteenth Army was advancing westward, Lin Chengxiang's Twentieth Army was facing the main forces of the Mongols and Shute at Hakmu.
