Chapter 127: Prisoner

Pang Yue drank Wei Yuan, not paying attention to the vicious gaze that Du Yonghe threw at all when he tried his best to raise his head. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Pang Yue is not unfamiliar with the name Du Yonghe. If history had not deviated because of the butterfly effect brought by the traverser, in 1649 AD, that is, in April next year, Du Yonghe would have raised troops in Guangzhou with Li Chengdong to oppose the Qing Dynasty and re-play the banner of the Ming Dynasty. When Li Chengdong was killed in the Battle of Xinfeng, Du Yonghe still insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty and took over the Great Seal of the Governor of Liangguang left by Li Chengdong. In the first month of 1650, Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao led the army from Shaozhou to the south to attack Guangzhou, Du Yonghe Yan refused the surrender of the Qing army, ordered the city to hold on, and repeatedly repelled the Qing army attacking the city, so that it paused under the city for ten months. It was not until October that the Qing army cast a number of new cannons and concentrated firepower to blast through the northwest city wall before it was able to break through the city. But even at this time, Du Yonghe did not give up resistance, and led the army to engage in street battles with the Qing army, until the general trend was gone, and Wu Wenwen, Yin Zhirong, and others, the commanders of the naval division, broke through by sea.

Thinking of Du Yonghe's performance in history, and then looking at the Qing general in front of him with red eyes and an awe-inspiring face, Pang Yue couldn't help but have mixed feelings and emotions, and there was such a question in a trance: If it was gratifying at that time, Geng Jimao's army invaded Guangzhou and captured Du Yonghe, I don't know what his performance would be? Will they surrender, or will they die like they are now, denouncing Shang Kexi and others?

However, after thinking about it for a while, Pang Yue leaned towards another answer. In his previous life, he was also puzzled by the contrast between Du Yonghe's performance before and after. Anyway, he followed Li Chengdong to do all the evil things and waved the butcher knife at his clan again and again, but after that, he unswervingly resisted the Qing army. refused the surrender of the Qing court many times, as if he had changed a person. Such a stark contrast is really unexpected by ordinary people. But since coming to this era. After getting used to seeing all kinds of people, Pang Yue had a new idea, feeling that the moral standards of later generations were sometimes not applicable to people in this era, especially some military generals who could not read big characters. In the case of Du Yonghe, whether it was the massacre of Han Chinese or the insistence on opposing the Qing Dynasty, everything he did did not have a clear moral standard, and he only relied on narrow personal beliefs. For him. Li Chengdong is kind to him, so he is naturally the object of his allegiance, and it is his belief to swear allegiance to the benefactor at all costs. So Li Chengdong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and slaughtered the Han Chinese. He also followed the killing, Li Chengdong anyway, he naturally followed anyway without complaint. Perhaps, when Li Chengdong was defeated and died. Du Yonghe also experienced a period of "lack of faith". However, the fact that the benefactor died at the hands of the Qing army soon made him re-choose the Southern Ming court and the Yongli Emperor as the object of allegiance and faith, so there were a series of subsequent actions to resist the Qing Dynasty. And if Li Chengdong died at the hands of the Ming army, the situation would be different, and Du Yonghe's subsequent performance would not be any different from Shang Kexi, Geng Zhongming and others.

All in all, this kind of pure, or what can be called a narrow personal belief or personality cult is above the general national righteousness, which is the characteristic of Du Yonghe and some other military generals. In this regard, Pang Yue thought that he had no ability to change for a while, and could only feel deep sorrow for these people.

"Ming dog! Pang thief! You're just a jumping clown......" Du Yonghe was still struggling and scolding desperately. Even spit out a mouthful or two of bloody spit from time to time.

"Take them all down and put them in jail! Waiting for disposal! Pang Yue waved his hand and no longer looked at the captives.

After the captives were taken down. The atmosphere in the lobby soon came alive again. Tian Shizun and other aides as well as the generals present were full of discussions, and they all rejoiced at today's victory.

"The students really didn't expect that this time our army only took two days to conquer the fortified city of Guangzhou!" Tian Shizun twisted his beard and said with a smile, "Guangzhou is the core of Guangdong and even the entire Liangguang, and the heavy army gathering place of the Qing Dynasty. As soon as the news comes out, the arrogance of the captives and the Qing captives in various places will definitely plummet, but the Ming and the opposition and the military and people in various places will be greatly encouraged! ”

Zhang Yunli also smiled with a smile on his face: "In the final analysis, this is because of the foresight and careful planning of adults. Especially the method of using tunnels to blow up walls, even we didn't understand the mystery until the end, not to mention the Tartars in the city. As soon as such a strange trick comes out, does the Tartar have no reason to be defeated? ”

Pang Yue waved his hand: "Don't say that, the method I proposed is actually quite rough, and there are many things that need to be improved." This time, the main reason is that Tong Yangjia, Li Chengdong and others have not encountered a similar situation before, and they have not paid attention to it, so our army's cave attack will be relatively smooth. But even then, they have already thought of countermeasures. As I entered the city, I saw that the ditch behind the walls was about to be dug. If the speed of the Tartars is a little faster and water is poured into the tunnels, I am afraid that our army will be in much greater trouble. Therefore, you can't be complacent and everything is fine just because you succeed this time, otherwise you may suffer a loss next time. Chen He, you are better at this than me, and there are many corresponding talents in your Huashan camp, so I will leave the task of improvement to you. ”

Chen He put away his smug smile a little, and said solemnly: "Listening to the words of the big handsome, his subordinates suddenly opened up. Please rest assured, his subordinates will definitely improve this method according to what the marshal said, no matter what time it will be in the future, he will not give Tartar any chance! ”

"Dashuai, there is something that my subordinates have never figured out, can you tell me about it?" After Chen He finished speaking, He Zhenting spoke again.

Pang Yue suddenly smiled, he knew that this He Zhenting not only had a similar figure to Shi You's appearance, but also had a very similar personality, and he always had great curiosity about unknown things. So he said: "Guowei shouldn't speak so literately, this is not your style, and I don't sound awkward." If you have something to say, just say it! ”

He Zhenting smiled and raised his own question: "It stands to reason that the yin qi of the coffin is quite heavy, which is detrimental to fire morality, how can it be used to fill gunpowder successfully?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present suddenly burst into laughter. Although not long ago, most of them thought the same way, but this did not affect their jokes about He Zhenting, who had not yet turned a corner.

"Lao He, Lao He! The day before yesterday, the marshal said that when the gunpowder was blasted. What do you want to go? Okay, don't bother the handsome with such a trivial matter, Chen He has basically figured it out. If you have experience in implementation, you should ask him! Zhang Yunli finished with a smile and sighed again: "Now that Guangzhou has been recovered, I just don't know if Zhou Ming and they captured Tong and Li Erthief." If these two thieves are allowed to escape this time, it will be a little regrettable. ”

Hearing this, Pang Yue nodded, that's exactly what he thought. If you can capture Tong Yangjia and Li Chengdong in one fell swoop this time. The remnants of the Qing army and the pro-Qing forces among the landlords in the remaining prefectures and counties are just small fish and shrimp, and they will naturally fall to the wind. And once Tong Yangjia and Li Chengdong escaped, those remnants of the forces will have a backbone. Although Pang Yue felt that it would not take long to exterminate them. But if it can be solved all at once, it is better to solve it all at once.

"Don't worry! There are only a few hundred people left around Tong Yangjia and Li Chengdong, and Zhou Ming and the guys in the Flying Tiger Camp are not fuel-efficient lamps, and there are guides to guide them, so there shouldn't be anything wrong. Although there is also some apprehension in my heart. But Pang Yue still said calmly.

Next. The people also discussed the encampment of the army, the detention of the prisoners, and the patrol of the city. But before he could say anything, Shi Youliang's trademark wild laugh came from outside the lobby.

Hearing this voice, Pang Yue and his subordinates suddenly fell to the ground. The hall also resounded with heartfelt laughter.

"Dashuai!" Shi Youliang walked in in a hurry, laughed and said, "Although I came a little late, I brought you good things!" ”

When everyone looked at it, they saw that Shi Youliang's armor and battle robe were also stained with blood, and Lu's beard was also condensed into a ball of dried blood. Obviously, it was a momentary itch to kill the enemy in person. Seeing this scene, Pang Yue couldn't help but shake his head. At present, among the battalion officers in Huguang Town, I am afraid that only this big man is the only one who personally wields weapons to kill the enemy.

But Shi Youliang ignored everyone's strange gazes, and after saluting Pang Yue with a big grin, he waved his hand behind him: "Bring it up!" ”

Soon, several officers of the Flying Tiger Battalion who came with Shi Youliang dragged the two people who were tied up and most tightly blocked and pressed them in front of Pang Yue. One of them was thin, dressed in a Manchu second-grade brocade chicken supplement, covered in dust, and with a little loose pigtails at the back of his head, apparently captured in a very embarrassed situation. The other was tall and stout like a bear, wearing a bright suit of armor, and although he had been firmly subdued, his eyes still radiated the fierce light of a beast.

With just one glance, Pang Yue knew who these two people were.

"Dashuai, this is Tong and Li Eryu!" Shi Youliang said in a loud voice, "Damn, after being caught, your mouth is not dry." I wanted to cut out their tongues at the time, but after thinking about it, it was up to the commander to decide, so I had to plug their mouths first! ”

Pang Yue smiled: "It's rare for Zhou Ming to be so calm!" In any case, you have made great contributions this time, and I will not treat you badly except for the reward from the imperial court! ”

"Then thank you!" After Shi Youliang finished speaking, he pulled over the two officers beside him, patted them on the shoulder and said, "This is Wang Cheng and Wang Zhangtang, the commanders of our Flying Tiger Battalion, and the two of them captured Tong Lu and Li Lu respectively!" ”

"My subordinates have seen the handsome!"

"Excellent! To be able to capture these two enemy chieftains, you have made a great contribution! Pang Yue said with satisfaction.

Then, Shi Youliang waved his hand again, and the soldiers behind dragged another bloody corpse up. Seeing that Pang Yue was a little confused, Shi Youliang explained: "This is Li Yu's righteous son Li Yuanyin, I took a lot of effort to kill him. This person has outstanding martial arts and is quite brave, but he has taken the wrong path, but it's a pity. Before he died, he asked us to spare his own soldiers. I didn't agree, and none of his own soldiers were willing to surrender and die in battle. However, remembering that he was a man, I did not cut off his head, but left him a whole corpse. ”

After listening to what Shi Youliang said, and then looking at the corpse on the ground that was almost full of trauma, Pang Yue was suddenly silent, and his heart was mixed. In the original history, the reason why Li Chengdong was anyway was that Li Yuanyin's hard persuasion also played a great role. Anyway, after that, Li Yuanyin also showed more heroism in the battle with the Qing army and made a lot of achievements. The final outcome was: Emperor Yongli fled in a hurry, Li Yuanyin was surrounded by Yulin alone, in despair, he put on the Ming Dynasty clothes, went to the city to worship, and sighed: "Your Majesty is a minister, and your Majesty is not worthy of Your Majesty", and he killed himself after speaking.

But in any case, at least for now, Li Yuanyin is still in the enemy camp, so it is not surprising that he was killed. After being silent for a moment, Pang Yue said: "Zhou Ming did the right thing, carry him down and bury him!" I hope he can be an upright Han man in the next life! ”

After explaining this, Pang Yue looked at Tong Yangjia and Li Chengdong with a look of contempt and banter, and sneered: "Escort these two people to that dungeon in the backyard and detain them, so that they can be taken care of." That dungeon seems to have been built by Li Chengdong, and now it's just right for them to use for themselves. I'll go over and talk to them myself later! (To be continued.) )
