Section 357 Taking advantage of chaos
I don't know if Wei Shuzhen can listen to her own words, the Confucian etiquette she firmly believes in requires her to die the whole festival.
However, the vast majority of the literati who promoted these rituals and religions were incorruptible and shameful to the extreme, when Li Zicheng came, the civil officials in Beijing rushed to post in the hope of being reused, and when the Manchu Qing Dynasty came, they were like this again, and in later generations, the Japanese came, and they were still like this.
As a man, he can't insist on his character, he can't keep women, and in turn he asks them to make sacrifices, this is a literati.
Yang Chao couldn't help but think of other nationalities, Genghis Khan had just married, his wife was snatched away by the enemy, Genghis Khan and his allies took nine months to snatch his wife out, and at that time his wife was pregnant, and it was self-evident who the child was, but Genghis Khan didn't say anything, he didn't treat this son differently in his life, and he didn't vent by humiliating his wife, but never mentioned it.
A woman is snatched away, it is not the woman's fault, it is the man's shame, and if it is a man's, it must be snatched back, and it is not his own honor to snatch it back, but it is just to redeem the shame.
Yang Chao didn't think that the moral concern of the nomadic wife after being snatched away was noble, it was just the minimum bottom line for men, and he was not worthy of pride, but he should feel ashamed if he couldn't do it.
Walked out directly from the gate of the Governor's Palace, and sure enough, the Tartars in the Governor's Palace had been completely removed.
There were no tartars on the street outside, but it was possible to see the neat army, and after meeting, it was easy to confirm that they were all their own soldiers, and it was obvious that these soldiers had entered the west city from the east city.
It's a pity that they didn't fight much in the west of the old city, because most of the Qing troops were robbing in the east.
In addition to the guards guarding Dodor, the guards by the city gates. Everyone else is frantically looting, for fear that if they are slow, they will be preempted by others.
Yang Chao led his troops until Tongsimen, but did not encounter resistance. Even the city gate did not meet resistance, because it was already occupied by Wang Pu. Obviously, Wang Pu's attack on the governor's yamen was much smoother than Yang Chao's attack on the governor's palace, and he came to the city gate one step earlier, but Yang Chao did not see Wang Pu himself.
"Where's Wang Pu?"
Ask a general manager left by Wang Pu.
The general said: "Lord Wang killed back again, he said that he was going to pick up the brothers in the east of the city!" ”
Yang Chao was immediately displeased: "Nonsense! ”
This time he must take Wang Pu to open the knife, the military order is to fight from the east to the west, and then go out of the city from the west, and he can't fight.
But Wang Pu was the first to come out to sabotage Yang Chao's plan, and the impact was really bad.
After waiting for an hour. Wang Pu didn't come back, but others came.
"My lord is fortunate not to be dishonored, and all the Tartars will be killed!"
Even Xie Fei is back.
"Have you seen Dodor?"
Yang Chao immediately asked.
Xie Fei shook his head: "I've never seen it, it's all some generals, and there don't seem to be any generals." ”
He pursued the last one or two dozen guards to escape through the window.
Yang Chao sighed, and learned from the woman on Duoduo's bed that as soon as Duoduo heard the sound outside, he fled through the window without hesitation, only bringing a few people, as for the guards who stayed behind to guard. Basically, it is certain that they were after giving the Duoduo a break.
Therefore, the people Xie Fei chased were not with Duoduo at all.
The great achievement is close at hand, but he is so helpless to escape. It's a pity.
"I can't wait, that kid is crazy, it seems that he doesn't want to come back."
At this time, it is an opportunity, and I am afraid that the Tartars will not be able to rectify it until now, so Wang Pu has a rally to defeat the outnumbered, he is probably reluctant to kill this kind of opportunity, and now he doesn't know where to kill.
But you can't ignore Wang Pu, this guy took the elite of more than a thousand people to Dongcheng and killed him. It's too great to lose all of them.
"Zhao Kang, you take three thousand soldiers and horses to the Great East Gate. I took 3,000 men to the Little East Gate, and the rest stayed here. Before the official returns, he must not lose the city gate! ”
At this time, the whole army had already returned to its position, only Wang Pu was not alone, Yang Chao decided to grab the big and small east gates in his hands, so as to leave Wang Pu a safe passage to retreat to the old city.
Soon they moved and dispatched their troops.
Yang Chao easily took the small east gate, because there were no defenders here at all.
Here, I was finally able to hear the fighting in the east of the city, and to Yang Chao's surprise, there were more than ten fights, almost all over the east of the city, and one after another, this side was just calm, and there was a commotion there.
Yang Chao couldn't help but be annoyed: "How many teams is Wang Pu's army?" ”
He only brought about a thousand people, and looking at the scale of the chaos in the city now, I am afraid that there are about twenty teams.
After waiting for another half an hour, the city was still in chaos, and Yang Chao felt that something was wrong.
"Xie Fei, you take a hundred people in to look for it, and if you find Wang Pu, come back immediately, and if you can't find Wang Pu, you will catch two tongues for me and come back. Remember to be back in half an hour anyway! ”
After waiting for another half an hour, sure enough, Wang Pu did not come back, and Xie Fei returned on time with two surrendered soldiers.
"The adults spare their lives, and the small ones cross the line, and the small ones are wrong. But that's what my family ordered, not a small one. ”
"What's that?"
Xiaobing was very honest and kowtowed and begged for mercy as soon as they met, but he talked nonsense about Yang Chao.
"Aren't adults catching small ones?"
The soldier was also a little nonsense.
"What's going on with Xie Fei?"
Ask Xie Fei first, Xie Fei was also puzzled, he met these soldiers under an excuse, but at that time, two groups of twenty or so people were fighting each other, Xie Fei went to strangle the two groups of people at the same time, at first he was very careful, did not dare to act rashly, and carefully observed for a long time before he started, because he thought that one of the waves of soldiers was Wang Pu's subordinates.
In the end, after discovering that the two groups of people were not Wang Pu's subordinates, although he felt strange, he was not polite and took them all.
After asking Xie Fei, Yang Chao roughly guessed the situation, but he also deceived the soldiers: "Why do you loot indiscriminately, dare not listen to Prince Yu's military orders, what should you be guilty of!" ”
Yang Chao did take the opportunity to pretend to be a soldier of Duoduo and interrogated this soldier, who was obviously a newly surrendered soldier. I can't recognize a few Eight Banner soldiers, and there is no way to distinguish Yang Chao's outfit in the dark, plus the soldiers led by Yang Chao are all in iron armor. No matter how you look at it, it's all elite.
Therefore, Xiao Bing did not doubt, but vigorously defended himself.
Tell Yang Chao. At first, they also robbed strictly according to the division of areas, but other armies always crossed the border, and they felt that they were too bad, so they sent them to secretly go to other places to rob.
Yang Chao knew the habits of the Qing army, when they entered the city to loot, they were divided into regions, and they could not cross the border without authorization, and the best territory was definitely assigned to the Manchurian Eight Banners. The second is the Eight Banners of Mongolia, the second is the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, and of course, the most subordinate is now the surrender of troops.
Obviously, the regular army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty will definitely loot in strict accordance with this method, which is the most efficient, but Duoduo received too many surrendered troops in Jianghuai, and Liu Liangzuo's soldiers and ruffians could not have military discipline in a few days.
As for whether the Dordor will be after the looting is over. After the autumn, settle accounts and take the opportunity to suppress a group of surrendered troops, then I don't know.
The soldier also said. At first, after everyone crossed the line, they just scolded twice, or went to Duoduo to fight a lawsuit.
But since yesterday, it has been chaotic, because this lawsuit is too troublesome, and Duoduo can't make a decision for a while, and he still can't stop after disposing of a few degraded officers, plus Duoduo has robbed so many beauties, and he is **. It was temporarily deregulated.
As a result, the situation of crossing the border has become more and more serious today, and many petty officers have organized robbery in other places.
Especially tonight. Suddenly, many soldiers were attacked and killed in their own territory, so everyone had revenge and complained. They picked up knives and went to seek revenge, they were under the leadership of the general, and they fought with a team that crossed the line, and the team claimed that the people who killed them wanted to take revenge, but the team of small soldiers completely thought that the other party was an excuse to want to cross the line and loot.
After hearing this situation, Yang Chao also didn't expect it at all, of course, before tonight, there was a lot of friction between the various armies in the Qing army, especially the army that surrendered troops, but everyone had not lost their minds and had not developed to the extent that they were fighting each other.
However, Yang Chao led his troops to kill from east to west, which made many people think that the enemy killed him, so he simply pulled out his knife and took revenge.
This means that at this time, the military discipline of the Qing army robbed in the city is gone, and it is an exaggeration that they do not know that the Ming army led by Yang Chao has entered the city.
Maybe they didn't think that the Ming army had the courage to attack in, and besides, they didn't hear the sound of cannons, they didn't hear the sound of siege, and maybe even the outpost of the captives didn't find that the enemy was approaching in the direction of Yangzhou during the day, so they didn't think that there would be a battle at night, so the dead people's team thought that it was killed by other teams.
Yang Chao's thoughts couldn't help but begin to diverge, ordinary soldiers don't know the situation, the soldiers don't know the situation, so many Duo, Duoduo knows or not.
"Xie Fei, you said that Duoduo would think that who was attacking him just now?"
Xie Fei also felt that something was wrong, and said suspiciously: "My lord, you mean that Duoduo didn't know that we attacked him. ”
Yang Chao nodded: "If he didn't know it was us, would he think it was who?" ”
Xie Fei immediately replied: "He would have thought it was a mutiny!" I thought it was a rebellion! ”
Yang Chao nodded and continued to ask, "If Duoduo believes that it is a mutiny, what will he do after he escapes?" ”
Xie Fei said: "It should be to rectify the soldiers and horses, and then put down the rebellion." ”
Yang Chao nodded: "What kind of soldiers and horses will he use to quell the rebellion?" ”
Xie Fei said: "It will probably be the elite of the Eight Banners of his headquarters." ”
Yang Chao asked again: "Which troops did Zhang Tianfu and Liu Liangzuo surrender, will Duoduo use it, and dare to use it?" ”
Xie Fei was a little hesitant: "I shouldn't dare." ”
Yang Chao smiled and didn't ask, Xie Fei's heart was already boiling, if Duoduo didn't trust the troops at this time and didn't dare to use them, the troops he could mobilize in the city were only 30,000 elites of the Eight Banners, and with these elites he began to suppress the troops who were looting and fighting, and stabilized the situation in the city.
But what to do on his side, Xie Fei really couldn't figure it out, and the complexity of the situation made it difficult for him to see through it for a while.
In fact, no one can see through it.
At this time, Wang Pu led the team back.
When he saw Yang Chao, he shouted loudly: "My lord, the Tartars are in chaos, let's take advantage of the chaos to kill again, kill from here to the east gate, and then go out from the east!" ”
Yang Chao couldn't help glaring at Wang Pu, and at the same time denied his suggestion.
Snorted coldly and said, "Do you only kill it once?" (To be continued)
