Chapter 164: Seven Minor Draws

Zhu Youzhen climbed the tower of the north gate surrounded by everyone, and saw that Houjin's large army was still several miles away, and there was only a cavalry team of about ten people, holding torches and standing outside the moat of more than 100 steps.

Li Chongyao's eyes were sharp, and he found that it was Li Yongfang, the murderer of his uncle, who was the leader, and he couldn't help but blow up his chest, and he was about to kill out of the city to avenge his uncle.

Yuan Chonghuan hurriedly stopped her and said, "Miss Li, the two countries are fighting each other, and they will not be killed." I have always spread my faith and righteousness to the world, how can I do such a thing. ”

Yuan Chonghuan already knew Li Chongyao's identity at this time. He had long heard Zu Dashou say that the Li family had an elite cavalry, and he had always been envious, and he had long wanted to take this army into his pocket and use it as a team to build a cavalry team that could compete with the Jurchen field battles. Therefore, he was polite to Li Chongyao and did not put on a lofty posture.

But at this time, Yuan Chonghuan was the supreme commander after all, and Li Chongyao was reluctant, so he had to suppress his anger, and with tears of hatred in his eyes, he stared at Li Yongfang.

Zu Dashou saw that Li Chongyao was extremely aggrieved, and he couldn't bear to say in his heart: "Lord Yuan, the eldest lady is right!" Li Yongfang, a dog traitor, can't spit out ivory from the dog's mouth, it's nothing more than persuasion, what's the difference between listening and not listening? It's better to give him a shot directly and blow him up! ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled evilly: "Don't, don't!" ”

Li Chongyao thought that Zhu Youzhen was going to intercede for Li Yongfang, so he couldn't help but glared at him angrily.

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly said: "Miss, don't worry! I mean, Li Yongfang is too far away from us now, and if we want to clean him up, I'm afraid it's not that easy! If you want to bombard him, he can't see the movement of the gun cart? I scared him away a long time ago. So it's better to trick him closer and take the opportunity to give him a shot. ”

Everyone listened with black lines on their heads, thinking that this letter to His Royal Highness is really yin enough. Li Chongyao shouted excitedly: "Okay, good! Just listen to the prince! ”

Yuan Chonghuan didn't want to attack the envoys, so he ordered someone to open the city gate, sent a few soldiers to run to the moat, set up a plank, and let Li Yongfang and others come over.

But Li Yongfang was not stupid, but he rode his horse across the moat, and when he reached a trench fifty or sixty steps away from the city wall, he refused to move forward again. He thought to himself that at this distance, he had already entered the blind spot of the Hongyi cannon. And with his own skills, even if ten thousand arrows are fired at the head of the city, he can retreat with his whole body.

He sat on his horse with his head held high, and shouted in an extremely arrogant voice: "Ning Yuan Shou will listen to the truth!" Li Yongfang, the envoy of the wise Great Khan and the third-class general soldier of the Great Khan, was ordered by the Great Khan to read the holy oracle in front of the city! ”

Li Yongfang was full of energy, and although he was fifty or sixty steps away, his voice still reached the city very clearly.

Zhu Youzhen knew that the time for his performance had come, and immediately pulled his neck and shouted: "What the hell are you whining, it's like a mosquito humming, I can't hear it clearly!" ”

Li Yongfang was furious when he heard this, but he couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

He was originally a guerrilla of the Ming army stationed in Fushun, and he was also born in the Li family. When Nurhachi's army pressed the border, he opened the city and surrendered without firing a shot, becoming the first of the Ming generals to surrender, and he can be regarded as an old traitor.

Because he had given him a good head in the capitulation, Nurhachi looked up to him and betrothed him the daughter of his seventh son, Abatai, as his wife. In fact, Abatai's daughter had smallpox, her face was full of scars, and she was extremely ugly, but Li Yongfang was grateful, and she thought that she had become a family with Nurhachi, and she was even more desperate to work for Nurhachi.

Since then, he has been like a vicious dog loyal to his bullying master, biting wherever Nurha's red soldiers point. The Later Jin army successively captured Qinghe, Liaoyang, and Shenyang, and he took the lead in killing his compatriots more ruthlessly than the Jurchens.

Especially in the forty-seventh year of Wanli, Yang Hao, the eastern part of the Ming Dynasty, led an army of more than 100,000, falsely claiming to be 470,000, and surrounded Hetu Alala, the capital of Houjin at that time, in four ways, in an attempt to exterminate Nurhachi in one fell swoop.

And it was this big traitor Li Yongfang who offered advice to Nurhachi: "I will only go all the way by relying on a few roads." Nurhachi adopted his plan, gathered tens of thousands of elite soldiers in one place, gave full play to the advantages of the Jurchen cavalry's mobility and flexibility, and won successive battles in a few days, annihilating several Ming troops one by one near Salhu. After the Battle of Salhu, the Ming army was no longer able to take the initiative to attack Houjin, which completely changed the situation in Liaodong.

It stands to reason that Li Yongfang has made so many war exploits for Allah, and he should have been given greater repression. However, all the Jurchens, including Nurhachi, were very suspicious of the Han Chinese, and only regarded the surrendered Han people as watchdogs, and they would only be fed a little scraps and never let them be full.

And Li Yongfang still thought that he had not made enough achievements, and he was still desperately working for his master. He knew that the Li family had been guarding Liaodong for many years, and its combat effectiveness was even greater than that of the Ming army, and he thought that if he could persuade him to surrender, it would be another great achievement.

Therefore, at Nurhachi's behest, he exchanged letters with Li Cheng, the head of the Li family, many times, to persuade him to surrender the city. And Li Chengyong became more and more shaken, and Li Yongfang boasted in front of Nurhachi, saying that Ningyuan would surrender in the near future, and Li Chongyao could also be offered to the Great Khan as a concubine.

When Nurhachi heard that Li Chongyao was only fifteen years old, and that he was born with outstanding appearance, far better than the rough-skinned and ugly Jurchen women, he couldn't help but be moved and made an unprecedented promise: as long as Ning Yuan surrendered, he would crown Li Yongfang as the king of Po Nan and Yongzhen Ningyuan.

Li Yongfang was overjoyed, so he personally sneaked into Ningyuan and said that Li Chengyong would be used.

It was expected that Tong Yanghao was in time for the mutiny, and the yellow flag went south to respond. Due to Zhu Youzhen's mixing, not only the rebels were annihilated, but the yellow flag was also lost, one Jia Lae Zhen and three Niu Lu Er Zhen were killed in battle, and even the commander Hao Ge was so angry that he vomited blood three liters and almost lost his life.

And Li Chengyong did not surrender at a critical juncture. Li Yongfang was annoyed and angry, so he suddenly attacked the killer, killed Li Chengyong, and escaped from Ningyuan overnight.

At this time, Nurhachi had already received the battle report with the yellow flag, and he was furious. He stationed troops in Guangning for several months, and he was already ready to attack again, and immediately exhausted the elite troops of the Eight Banners, and went straight to Ningyuan in the starry night. I thought it would be best to enter the city that night and taste Li Chongyao's wonderful girly taste.

But Li Yongfang failed to persuade the Li family to surrender, and Yuan Chonghuan's Ming army rushed into the city first, and Nurhachi was so angry that he was about to go crazy. He summoned Li Yongfang and scolded him angrily, almost killing him with a knife.

Li Yongfang was so frightened that he was like a sifting chaff, and even called for mercy, and then expressed his loyalty to Nurhachi with a handful of snot and tears, saying that he was willing to lead the Han army to attack the city under the Eight Banners, and if he did not break through the city, he would be willing to be a military order.

Nurha's eyes rolled, but he ordered him to go outside the city first to read the "Seven Great Hatreds" to force the Ming army to surrender. If the Ming army does not surrender, it will attack the city again.

Li Yongfang naturally did not dare to disobey Nurhachi's orders. At this time, Zhu Youzhen at the head of the city insisted that he couldn't hear clearly, and asked him to go further. He knew that Zhu Youzhen was talking nonsense, and he had the intention to return to the camp, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to die. After much thought, he had to slow down and be careful.

When he walked more than 20 steps away from the city wall, Li Yongfang said that he didn't dare to go any further, and immediately stopped his horse, unfolded Nurhachi's so-called "edict", and read it aloud: "The edict of the lord of the Dajin Kingdom told the Ming people: Our Dajin Kingdom and your Ming Kingdom have their own borders, and they should not interfere with each other. Why did you provoke for no reason to kill the grandfather and father of the Great Khan? This hatred is also a hate!

"When the Mongol and Haixi Jurchen tribes attacked our Dajin Kingdom, you stood by and watched; When our Dajin Kingdom attacks them, you will say that we attack without authorization, and you will take the opportunity to harass the Dajin Kingdom. How can it be so unjust? This hatred is also two!

"The Ming people repeatedly secretly crossed the border and went to the Changbai Mountains to steal ginseng. The Great Khan slew these thieves, and instead of restraining the people, he detained the Khan's envoys. If the threat to the Great Khan fails, he will kill the envoys! This hatred is also three!

"My Dajin Kingdom has a bad relationship with Ye He, and Ming Nai favors Ye He to help him with his ordnance and food, and this hatred is also four!

"The youngest daughter of Chief Yeh is the woman whom the Great Khan has a crush on. But you Ming people forced her to marry other tribes, disobeying the Great Khan, this hatred of the five also!

"Our Dajin country has newly opened Chai River, Sancha, Fu'an and other territories, and has been cultivated. Why do you burn down your houses and drive away people, and you are not allowed to reap crops? This hatred is also six!

"The border ministers of the Ming Kingdom are arrogant to me, and their attitude is arrogant, and they hate Qiye! The Great Khan reported these seven hatreds to the sky, and the heavens sought clarification, and he could go straight to the capital in a few days! If you know the current affairs and surrender as soon as possible, you can not only avoid capital crimes, but also increase the number of officials and knights; If you are stubborn and resist the heavenly soldiers, the day the city is broken, the chickens and dogs will not be left! ”

Before Li Yongfang's words fell, Zhu Youzhen scolded violently in the city: "I'll let your mother's purple fart go!" What are the seven hatreds, I think Nurhachi has seven major debts! Liaodong is the land of the Ming Dynasty, and Nurhachi rebelled, that is, he was a rebellious minister and thief, and everyone was punished, and this owe one also!

"Of course I want to suppress you if you rebel, you have to be a bitch and set up an archway, and this owe the second one!

"It's okay for you to kill my people, but it's okay for me to kill you thieves? What kind of logic is this, did Nurhachi's head let the door squeeze? This underdrawer is also three!

"The enemy of the enemy is our friend, what's wrong with me helping Ye He beat you? Shall I give you food and wages, so that you will be fed and then rebel? This owe the drawer four also!

"The woman you Nurhaci has a crush on is yours? I still have a crush on his wife, why don't you dig her out of the soil and let me cool off a few times? This underdrawer is also five!

"You are still 'opening up new territory', new opening a fart, that's all the land of the Ming Dynasty! The thief shouted to catch the thief, shameless, this owe the smoker six!

"I think we have a bad attitude, why don't you want to think about it, you have lost your conscience, slaughtered more than a million people, and you have already been convicted by heaven! I still have a very good attitude towards you, if Nurhachi falls into my hands, I will have to skin him, grass and light the sky lantern, and rape and then kill all the women of his family, and then rape and kill again! This owes seven too! And you dog traitor, the one who owes the most smoke is you, eat me a shot! ”

Saying that, Zhu Youzhen raised the flintlock pistol that had been prepared long ago, aimed it at Li Yongfang, and pulled the trigger!
