Chapter 8: The Destruction of the Golden State

The Acropolis of Jinzhou stood in tatters, the city gate was damaged, the people were gone, and the corpse collection teams inside and outside the city searched every house, constantly transporting corpses outside the city. Although it has been some time since Jinzhou fell into the hands of Beizi Abatai, after the siege of the city and the three-day looting without sealing the sword, Jinzhou has ten rooms and nine empty, and the rest are mostly women and children, and now they are clothed slaves.

Abatai sat in the tent in the north of the city, listening to the butler Hu Butai's account,

"Master, there are more than 3,200 people in Dingkou, 63 iron armors, 347 cotton armors, more than 4,000 knives and guns, and more than 240 infantry bows. There were more than 4,000 red jackets, more than 500 fat jackets, 11,000 stone of grain, 2,300 taels of gold, and 24,676 taels of silver. Butler Hu Butai's voice was quite loud and a little excited.

Abatai is also quite proud, although he lost more than ten white armor, more than sixty vests, nearly two hundred more than two hundred dings, more than three hundred coats, and another Niu Lu was really injured and died three leaders, after all, Jinzhou was taken, and he gained a lot, in the past, because his own family did not have exclusive eight banners, most of the results were taken by the brothers. Today, he alone leads the yellow flag and the yellow flag to enter Jinzhou, and has his own means to achieve more results. Of course, the acres and pavements depend on which flag is stationed and which flag is returned, but the harvest is already satisfied. Robbing Nikan is a quick and abundant harvest.

A few women's cries and screams were coming, accompanied by a few full words. Which slave is playing with the Han girl? Abatai remembered that the corners of the two Han girls' mouths were also upturned last night, which was quite comfortable.

There was a sound of horses' hooves, and when they stopped at the tent, one of the leaders urged them to kneel down in the tent.

"Master, Lord Mang Gurtai Belle led the Blue Banner for more than 6,000 horses, and according to this, forty miles."

Abbatelius groaned, how did the commander of the three major Baylors come here, does he want to attack Lushun.

"Put on your armor and go to meet you."

Five miles away from the city, Abatai and the guards looked into the distance, only to see the dust in the distance, the leading Niu Lu held high the blue banner, the leading Niu Lu Zhangjing saw the banner of Abatai, and hurriedly called people to pass Bing Bing Gurtai, and knelt down to salute himself.

"Get up, wait outside the Golden State City first." Abatai explained.

"Huh." Niu Lu took the order and left.

Then a large group of men and horses rolled in, waving flags and shining armor.

Abatai touched his short stubble and smiled proudly, in the land of Liaodong, my Dajin's elite soldiers are invincible.

After thinking about it, a large number of people lined up. The first one was Mang Gurtai, and the third Belle wore only a leather armor.

"Fifth brother," Abatai stepped forward to salute, looking extremely respectful.

"Old Seven, hard work," Mang Gul Tailuo returned the salute, well, this old seven, is quite capable, but it's a pity, the background is too poor.

"Tohan Amahomfu, three military orders, take the Golden State. Finally fulfilled the mission. Abatai replied with a smile.

"It's still the seventh who is capable. How to get a lot of money. Took in a few Han slaves. Mang Gurtai snorted haha.

"It's done, it's done." Abatai's mouth couldn't be closed. "I don't know, what business did my father let the fifth brother come to Jinzhou."

"The king of Khan listened to Li Yongfang's sentry that there were a lot of fugitive slaves in Lushun Nikan, and the defense was lax, so he ordered me to take down the blue flag, so as not to let the Ming Kingdom learn of the fall of Jinzhou and send reinforcements. It's not easy to gnaw. Mang Gurtai pouted, a little disapproving. I traveled all the way in a hurry, and I didn't bring much food, Lao Qi, it depends on you. ”

Abatai felt a pain in his heart, but he said, "It's okay, Nikan has a lot of grain and grass left, and I will definitely supply the needs of the army first, seventh brother." ”

Mang Gurtai looked at Abatai's heartache with a smile, and his heart was happy.

"In addition, ask your subordinates to follow the army."

"Obey." Abatai hated a lot, how many of these thousand clothes could come back, and he didn't let the yellow flag go with him, making it clear that he didn't have his share in the grass valley.

Mang Gurtai took a good look at Abatai's heartache and whetted his appetite, "Well, call two more Niu Lu to go with me." "It's a shame to gnaw bones, but you can drink a mouthful of soup.

"When will the fifth brother capture Lushun, I will ask the minions to prepare food and grass."

"Nikan doesn't collect at night, can you find out the Golden State." Mang Gurtai urged the horse to take the lead and go slowly.

"I have scattered two cows, the land of Jinzhou is narrow, and it is difficult for Nikan to fly with wings." Abatai followed.

"Well, I'm hurrying all the way, and the minions are very tired. After a day of rest, the fast horse will go down to Lushun first, kill him by surprise, it is better to take advantage of the chaos to seize the city, if not, then divide the north and south cities, and attack as soon as Baoyi arrives. The cowardly Nikan can't stop my army for a long time. Mang Gurtai patted Abatai, "Old Seven, I'm so hungry, you can arrange it below." ”

"Fifth brother, Jinzhou has already prepared a banquet, come with me." Abatai hurriedly wanted to let it.

The brigade sped forward, and the birds and beasts were amazed along the way.

In the Lushun Nancheng Bureau, Commander Zhao and Geng Guerrilla were talking very happily, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

"Lord Zhao, I don't know when the grain and grass will be able to go ashore and put into storage," Geng Zhongyu asked.

"Geng's guerrilla and baggage are all on the ship, but I see that the refugees are filling the wharf, and the transportation is quite unchanged, and after two days, most of the refugees will be transported out and then put into storage, and Lord Geng thinks so." Zhao Haiming put down the teacup and said.

"Very good, a few days ago, when I got off the boat, the refugees grabbed it like crazy, and the military households cut more than ten people to suppress it." Geng Zhongyu wiped his sweat, "Let the subordinate still make my heart tremble." ”

"Lord Geng is in this place of war, and it is really hard to defend the border for the country." Zhao Lie gave a deep salute.

"Zhao Gongzi's words are serious, his words are serious, it is my duty to defend the border for the country, and I can't do it." Geng Zhongyu said, but the smile on his face couldn't be stopped.

Zhao Haiming twisted his beard and smiled, well, boy, I also know a thing or two about the doorway in the officialdom.

"Lord Geng, I grew up in Weihai since I was a child, and I saw the ugliness, and now I see that Lushun City is very majestic, and I don't know if I can see it when I want to see the city." Zhao Lie opened his eyes and said nonsense, Weihaiwei is one of the four guards in the world, not comparable to Lushun.

"Well, after a while, I will call two personal soldiers to take my son to the city for a look." It's just a small request from a small ya, and Geng Zhongyu is full of answers.

Zhao Lie climbed to the head of the north city, only to see that more than 200 steps to the northwest is the north city, all of which are old-fashioned square acropolises, between the two cities are large and small shacks, crowded with refugees, and the nearby trees and grasslands are completely destroyed.

Zhao Lie's Denggao estimated that there were still 30,000 or 40,000 refugees, and the Lushun Sailor Division, the Dongjiang Naval Division, and the Dengzhou Naval Division, and the fishing boats were transported away in the later stage, and there must be tens of thousands of people.

Well, time is gone, Zhao Lie muttered to himself.

Zhao Lie looked around and had some plans in his heart, but it was quite difficult.

Zhao Lie and others went down the stairs, only to see a man in his forties and a man in his twenties standing under the ladder.

Hu Yu bowed, "Son, my lord has something to ask for." Wanwang Gongzi agreed. ”

Zhao Lie arched his hand and smiled: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, the guerrilla adults can tell me if they have something."

Hu Yu looked at another young man: "Son, this is a relative of my family, a person from Jinzhou, who is now in Jinzhou, and wants to take refuge in Shandong." I hope that the adults will be fulfilled. ”

Wu Qun stepped forward and gave a deep salute, "Childe, the villain is Wu Qun of Jinzhou, my father died in Jinzhou some time ago, and the last words of the whole family will return to their ancestral hometown of Qingzhou, Shandong to settle down, and hope that the son will be perfect." Wu Qun led the whole family to Lushun, hoping to return to Shandong, however, at this time, the sailor was busy transporting refugees to the Dongjiang Islands, and there was no boat to go to Shandong for a while, Wu Qun understood that Jiannu would soon capture Lushun, and time was running out, so he could not delay, so that people took a guerrilla attack on Geng Zhongyu's housekeeper Hu Yu, and went on two thousand taels of silver, hoping that Hu Yu would take a fleet back to Shandong.

"Childe, Wu Qun's family has a large population, so it is extremely difficult to find a boat, you see ......" Hu Yu looked at Zhao Lie and was silent, and hurriedly added. You see, the cost of shipping is ......"

"My lord, Wu Qun is willing to offer five thousand taels of silver as the ship's fare, and I hope that my lord will fulfill it." Wu Qun gritted his teeth, money is something outside his body, and he can't care about it at this time. If it is transported to the Dongjiang River, the various military leaders will not let go of their own homes, Jinzhou has the ability to face the sea, and the actions of the generals of the Dongjiang River are vivid, and the father said that he will not go to the Dongjiang River, and he is afraid that he will go back to Shandong, and he must be stripped clean, and he expects the Dongjiang to fight back against Jiannu and return to his homeland, which is a fool's dream.

"How many are there in the clan?" Zhao Lie Zhengrong asked. In fact, my heart moved, and it seemed that I wanted to use the power of this person.
