After dawn, the people in the city were very strange, yesterday afternoon's cannons and shouts of killing, so that they were frightened, thinking that there was no way to live, once the army broke through the city, they were going to suffer, some families, even on their daughters' faces painted ink and stove ashes, to prevent their daughters from being insulted, but the sound of cannons and shouts of killing did not last very long, later, they heard the sound of horses' hooves on the street, and screams, many people, even more frightened.

But then it was soon quiet, no one came to slam the door, and no sergeant rushed in, the noise outside gradually became smaller, only the direction of the official mansion, the sound of horses' hooves was a little dense, at night, the residents of the city, merchants, etc., almost no one slept, especially the bustard's mother and shopkeeper of the green building, inn, restaurant and tea house, and they did not dare to close their eyes, generally speaking, the army broke through the city, these places were the first to suffer, the girls in the green building, although they were afraid, but they didn't care, didn't they just sacrifice their bodies, After serving the sergeant, there is nothing to do.

The night passed, and nothing happened.

Many people thought that all this was a dream, but at the end of the day, there were sergeants patrolling the streets, and the uniforms of these sergeants were completely the uniforms of the Ming army.

A few gentry in the city, but also the only few remaining Ming people, Lushun was broken by the Houjin Tartars, they refused to serve as officials, fortunately, Shang Kexi helped them intercede, after being killed most of the scholars, several people saved their lives, became Lushun City, respected by everyone. The gentry went out in unison, met in the old place, and they even saw the sergeants patrolling the streets. The sergeant just looked at them, didn't say anything, didn't make any moves.

Several gentry deliberated and decided to meet the officers of the Ming army and inquire about the situation, and they were looking forward to the recovery of Lushun by the Ming army day and night. Now their wish has come true, and they are surprised to find that the Ming army who entered Arthur City this time is very disciplined, and all the way through, they have not seen any houses destroyed, nor have they seen any corpses on the street, and the situation in the city has not changed from before.

Su Tiancheng met these gentry. Several gentry are very old, I heard that a few people are the people of the Apocalypse, Su Tiancheng is very polite, a few people know that the young man in front of Lu Dao is Su Tiancheng, the Ming Dynasty's Jiliao Governor, immediately knelt down and began to cry bitterly, saying that he was looking forward to the imperial court to recover Lushun. It's been almost ten years, and they don't even think they can wait for this day. Wang Dazhi and others beside Su Tiancheng hurriedly helped up these gentry.

Su Tiancheng said openly and honestly that the Jiangning battalion captured Lushun and wiped out more than 10,000 Houjin Tartars, but Ye Bushu monk Kexi didn't know where Lu Dao had gone and whether he would hide in the homes of ordinary people. Some people suggested that the whole city be searched, but the military regulations of the Jiangning camp were very strict, and it was not allowed to harass the people, let alone kill innocents indiscriminately, and hoped that a few gentry could provide information.

A gentry spoke immediately. It was said that Ye Bushu had a mansion in the city, and it was possible that it was in the mansion, Su Tiancheng shook his head, and said that he had searched it a long time ago, and there was nothing.

Another gentry spoke, saying that in Lushun City, most of the residents are Han Chinese, and the Manchurians here are very good, and it is impossible for Ye Bushu to hide in the homes of the Han people, and it is impossible for Shang Kexi to see if he is hiding in the Manchu houses of the dozen or so households.

At this time, Liu Tiehan came in with scouts, and they found a secret passage in Ye Bushu's mansion, which led directly to the outside of the city, and there was an inn outside the city, but there was no one left.

Su Tiancheng slapped the table angrily, startling several gentry.

Su Tiancheng knew that Ye Bushu and Shang Kexi had fled.

Next, he said a few words to several gentry, and it was these few words that made the Jiangning camp famous within a radius of thousands of miles.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the imperial court should recover Lushun, it should be, this is originally the place of my Daming, the imperial court not only wants to recover Lushun, but also to recover Shenyang, Salhu, Tieling, Kaiyuan and Laozhai and other places, these are the places of my Daming, the Houjin Tartars harass my Daming, brutally kill my Daming people, and there are many evil deeds, the court will never spare it, but the people who live here are the people of my Daming, no matter what they have done before, whether they secretly support the Houjin Tartars, it is a last resort, in order to survive, the court will not pursue, let alone kill the people, not only the Han people living here, including the Manchu people living here, as long as they abide by the rules and obey the leadership of the government, the court will not kill indiscriminately, in the future, if there are soldiers who mutilate innocents, or rob money and property, and insult women, the official will never forgive, no matter who it is, resolutely enforce military law. ”

"You can go and tell the people what to do, what to do, don't be afraid, but you also have to remind those who are still thinking of providing information to the Houjin Tartars, if they are detected by the officials, they will not be polite."

"Governing and building Lushun, but also rely on a lot of people, rely on a few of you gentry, you stick to Lushun, unwilling to serve the Houjin Tartars, it is not simple, this official will want the court to report your sentiments, from today on, you will go to the government to do things, good life to do things, good life to manage the people here."

Jiang Ning Yingqiu did not commit any crimes, the news soon spread throughout the city, the people stayed at home for a long time, the people were suspicious, some men came out, observed on the street, except for some waiting sergeants, nothing changed, no house was burned down, no one was crying on the street, everything did not change, and the sergeants on patrol did not harass the people at all.

Hearing is believing, and soon, more people are taking to the streets and shops are open.

Some of the bustards in the Qinglou stood at the door, and when they saw the sergeant patrolling, they dared to ask the sergeant to come and play, but the sergeant just smiled at the bustard mother and quickly walked over.

What really reassures everyone is that a person who looks like an officer, takes a few people, goes to a restaurant, orders a meal and asks to be sent to the government, the officer pays the silver according to the price and rules, and the shopkeeper does not dare to ask for it, the officer spoke, saying that Master Su has strict requirements, if anyone dares to eat and drink for nothing, he will be severely punished.

After the shopkeeper accepted the silver, he immediately made a table of good wine and food and sent it over, and the shopkeeper personally went to send it, and after he came back, he boasted in front of everyone, saying that the officers of the Ming Army were very polite, and said to himself that Xie Lu was thankful, if the price of wine and food was high, he would have to make up the silver.

At this moment, everyone in the city was relieved.

More than a dozen Manchu people living in Lushun, in fact, are not magnates, magnates will not come here to live, they are also ordinary people among the Manchus, but a day ago, their identities are different, they are the people in Lushun City, after the Ming army entered Lushun, these dozen households of Manchurians, even prepared poison, if something happens, the family drinks poison, so as not to suffer humiliation, when Su Tiancheng's words reached their ears, they couldn't believe it, thinking that it was fooling themselves, But more than a day passed, no sergeants came to check, and no one bothered them, so they slowly reassured, but they had to keep a low profile from now on.

Fortunately, the people in these dozen or so households have not specifically bullied anyone.

Su Tiancheng's name and the discipline of the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion soon spread in Lushun, and the news spread quickly, but in a few days, the people in Jinzhou, Wanghai and other places all knew about it.

Su Tiancheng didn't have time to care about these things, after blowing up all the warships of the Houjin Naval Division, part of the warship formation returned to Dengzhou, continued to transport part of the Jiangning battalion soldiers, and entered Lushun, although there were 53,000 soldiers in hand, but the troops were still insufficient, the 3,000 soldiers had to guard the warships and patrol boats, and if they did not occupy a place, they had to leave at least nearly 1,000 Jiangning battalion soldiers to maintain law and order here. The forces of Tieshan and Xuanzhou are somewhat insufficient.

Su Tiancheng's consideration, the officers and men of the Jiangning battalion mainly have to attack, and they can't be dragged down by local things, and the recovered places should make use of the local forces as much as possible to maintain order, and if all places are guarded by sergeants, then the Jiangning battalion cannot have so many troops, and it can only be said that the troops are stationed in key places.

In fact, early in the morning of the second day of the occupation of Lushun, 30,000 Jiangning battalion soldiers, under the leadership of Sun Chuanting, had already set out, and their targets were Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Yongning and other places, and they must occupy these places as quickly as possible.

The occupation of Jinzhou was the smoothest, the army arrived outside the city of Jinzhou, and the officials who established the government had long been tied up by the common people, and the sergeants of the inspection department were also controlled, and the army occupied Jinzhou very smoothly.

From May 19 to May 24, in just six days, the Jiangning battalion occupied Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Yongning, Xuancheng, Tieshan and Xuanzhou, in these places, there was almost no resistance from the Houjin Tartars, the Jiangning battalion was divided into two, Su Tiancheng led 30,000 soldiers, stationed in Yongning, ready to move towards Gaizhou, Sun Chuanting with 20,000 soldiers, stationed in Xuanzhou, to prevent Dai Shan leading the Houjin Tartars of the Red Banner from sneak attack.

If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, Su Tiancheng understands this truth, he needs to slow down and manage these places he occupies, especially the officials in the government, which is the most important, the warship formation returns to Dengzhou, and it is also necessary to bring a large number of officials here, only when these places are truly stabilized, Su Tiancheng will begin to attack Gaizhou, Haizhou, Yaozhou, and Liaoyang, directly threatening Shenyang, the capital of Houjin.

Of course, he also wants to see what Huang Taiji's reaction is. (To be continued......)
