Chapter 349: The General and the Master

Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming withdrew to the camp with the defeated soldiers in despair, discussing countermeasures along the way. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info led 18,000 troops to pursue the Ming army, not only did not leave the Ming army that sneaked attack, but instead killed and wounded more than 3,000 people, lost troops and lost generals, and returned to the camp to see that Duoduo definitely had no good fruit to eat.

"Maybe that kid Li Shutai is suing us in front of Prince Yu!" Geng Zhongming said hatefully, "The two of us should unify our voices and put the responsibility for the defeat on him." ā€

"I'm afraid this is not good," Kong Youde shook his head, "Li Shutai has the identity of a forehead, and his dead father is a celebrity around the two generations of emperors, and their Li family is deeply rooted in the Qing Dynasty, and it is not something we can shake." Prince Yu has always valued this kid, if we say bad things about this kid in front of him, I'm afraid it will make Prince Yu dissatisfied, and if we think that we deliberately shirk our responsibility, it will be even more troublesome. ā€

"Damn," Geng Zhongming whipped the grass on the side of the road with his horsewhip, and the blades of grass flew straight away.

"Let's cross the river with eggs every day, and work hard for the Aixin Jueluo family, but we can't even compare to a stinky kid, what a fucking heartache!"

"Shh Kong Youde hurriedly signaled Geng Zhongming to shut up, lowered his voice and scolded: "You don't want to die, we are not as good as when we were in the Ming Dynasty, I don't know how many spies sent by the imperial court around us, if this word reaches Duoduo's ears, I think we have a different heart, is there still a life?" ā€

Geng Zhongming also knew that he was speechless, so he hurriedly closed his mouth, turned his head to look around, and saw that no one noticed the conversation between the two, so he was relieved. The Manchus were no better than the Ming Dynasty, and they were extremely tightly controlled by these generals, not only they and their subordinates' families were under the control of the Manchus, but even the army did not know how many eyes and ears of the Qing court.

The two sat silently on their horses, and walked wordlessly along with the procession. In the end, the general is a general, and it seems that he has been reused, and in the eyes of the Manchurians, he is an outsider after all.

"So what the hell are we going to do?" After a while, Geng Zhongming couldn't help but ask. Among the two, Kong Youde has always been the leader, Kong Youde is always scheming, and he has always been the one who took the idea.

"You don't have to do anything, let's just tell the truth and take the initiative to ask for sin." After thinking for a while, Kong Youde said.

"Ahh How can that work? Geng Zhongming exclaimed.

"Hmph, we still have the prince's hat on our heads, it's not something that Duoduo can handle, why did the Qing Dynasty give us the title of king, it's not for other generals to see. There are more and more Ming troops who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and in order to reassure their hearts, Duoduo did not dare to dispose of us easily. As long as we take the initiative to confess our sins and give Duoduo a step down, he will definitely take it lightly and take it lightly. ā€

"Okay, that's it." Geng Zhongming thought about it for a while, and felt that what Kong Youde said was very reasonable, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Before the two of them led the army into the camp, they felt that the atmosphere in the camp ahead was calm. There were dozens of bloody heads hanging outside the gate, and the faces of the two people were pale, and they didn't dare to look at the heads at all. Ordered his subordinates to return to the camp to settle down first, and the two of them walked to the Duoduo tent tremblingly.

Before he could reach the camp of Dordor, he heard the sound of crackling and crackling, accompanied by a faint muffled grunt. When he got closer, he saw that the execution was taking place outside the Great Tent of Dodor.

The newly surrendered generals Xu Dingguo, Liu Zhong, Li Chengdong and others were being pressed to the ground and hit the board.

More than a dozen full-shouldered people with big shoulders and round waists stood on both sides, holding the torture staff in their hands and slamming them into the buttocks of several generals, and in the midst of the flying flesh, several people were sweating profusely in pain, but they gritted their teeth and did not dare to scream.

Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming didn't dare to look more, so they walked into the big tent with their heads down, and saluted Duoduo with their fists. Because of the presence of the king, the two of them are not much lower than Duoduo in terms of status.

Duoduo's face sank like water, and his majestic body exuded an endless murderous aura. Thirty-year-old Duoduo is the age of the dragon spirit and the tiger, standing there majestically and mightily like a fierce tiger, the evil aura created by the perennial battlefield killing, even murderers like Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming are afraid from the heart.

In terms of the number of killings, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming killed many more people than Duoduo, and when they rebelled in Dengzhou, tens of thousands of people in the Qilu area died in their hands. In the past few years since the surrender of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, whether it is the people of the Ming Dynasty or the Goryeo sticks, countless lives have died tragically in the hands of the two.

But killing people is different from killing people, the evil spirit on Duoduo's body is created by defeating the enemy army countless times in the battlefield fighting, and it is the invincible evil spirit created by the lives of countless Ming army Shun army, and how can it be compared to Kong Youde Geng Zhongming, who killed the people.

Therefore, in front of Duoduo, even if he is as cunning as Kong Youde and cruel as Geng Zhongming, he is always trembling and does not dare to speak his atmosphere.

The sound of the board outside the tent finally stopped, and the Eight Banners of the execution entered the tent to announce to Duoduo that the execution was over, and Duoduo waved his hand and signaled to pull them down for medical treatment. Then he looked at Kong Youde and the others.

"Two princes, I don't know if you can leave the Ming army that sneaked up on you to kill?" Duoduo asked coldly.

Isn't this a knowingly asked, Li Shutai is standing in the big tent, didn't he tell you the results of the battle? Kong Youde sneered in his heart, thinking about the wording of the answer.

"Poof", before Kong Youde could reply, he found that Geng Zhongming beside him had fallen to the ground on both knees, and Kong Youde was stunned, how could this old boy kneel so neatly? Kong Youde didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"Lord Wang, the last general is unfavorable in battle, and the soldiers are lost, so I have come to ask the prince for his guilt." The two of them fell to their knees and bowed their heads deeply, indicating that they were left to the dethronement of the Duoduo.

Looking at these two brazen guys, the tough Duoduo didn't just sigh. Kong Youde and the others are different from Xu Dingguo, Li Chengdong and other newly surrendered generals, but the two of them have the throne rewarded by the imperial court, and they have both entered the flag and become banner people, so they naturally can't be treated as casually as Xu Dingguo and others.

Although it is said that with Duoduo's status, even killing two people is nothing, but in that case, everyone who surrenders will be in danger, which is roughly inconsistent with the imperial court. Think about it, the two princes were killed casually, what sense of security do you have when you are a high official after surrendering?

After all, the number of Manchus is too small, if you want to conquer the huge empire of the Ming Dynasty, you will definitely not be able to rely on the Manchus alone, you must have many traitors like Kong Youde Geng Zhongming to help!

"The two princes, please hurry up," Duoduo concealed his inner contempt and forced himself to smile, "I have learned about the war, and the responsibility for the defeat is not yours. It was the ineffective command of the chief of staff He Gui that caused the defeat of our army, and it had nothing to do with the two princes. ā€

"Come on, take He Gui down for me, push out the camp gate and behead the public!" (To be continued.) )
