Chapter 181: Shenyang City Breaks
Half a day, that is, within half a day, Nurhachi under the city of Shenyang has already joined Huang Taiji here, and a total of 70,000 troops stood under the city of Shenyang, You Shigong was already in a hurry, he came to Sun Chengzhong and said: "My lord, we have been tricked!" The main force of Houjin was not transferred. ”
Of course, Sun Chengzhong knew that the opponent's main force had not been transferred, and even if he was transferred, he would come back to attack when Shenyang was empty, and Shenyang was arranged in this way to attract the opponent's firepower. So he calmly spoke: "General You can't reach it, Shenyang artillery is strong, as long as we stop the enemy here, after the rear troops evacuate the people, they will naturally come to support us!" ”
You Shigong sighed and said, "Alas, now it can only be like this!" ”
After saying You Shigong and retired, at this time, a small soldier walked in from outside, and he went to Sun Chengzhong's ear and said, "My lord, Lord Xu has started!" ”
Sun Chengzhong nodded, and he spoke: "Now go and inform all the officials and gentry in the city to come to the barracks, and this official will make the final mobilization!"
Unlike Liaoyang's Qi Jin's direct and violent opening of the way, Shenyang's arrest of anti-business traitors was planned and purposeful, which was of great significance to Li Jiancheng's domestic layout. Therefore, Sun Chengzhong, who summoned famous people in the city, was just a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and it was also to cooperate with Xu Xianchun!
The big names on the front foot were called to the barracks to attend the meeting, and Xu Xianchun on the back foot led people to surround their mansions, taking what should be taken, catching what should be caught, and robbing what should be robbed.
In particular, the eight shops in Shanxi were the most severely attacked, and all the principals had to be arrested as living witnesses!
Xu Xianchun was unreasonable, and when he surrounded a mansion, he broke the door and arrested all the living people. All property was sealed and taken away. Anyway, Shenyang City is going to be lost. It doesn't matter if you catch the wrong person, it's better than keeping it for Jiannu!
Of course, there are not many people in Xu Xianchun, and the focus is on those who are on the list, as the so-called general trend has no details! This is like sweeping away the gangsters in the new century, and when I play with you, I naturally have to go through some formal procedures to tease you! But will I really play with you when I'm going to sweep you from top to bottom? The irrationality of a large organization's existence is basically known to everyone, and this kind of evidence does not need to be carefully searched for!
What the eight traitors in Shanxi rely on is nothing more than someone from above, and now Li Jiancheng, who is the person at the top, is not afraid to take them under his knife. If you are not convinced, you can go to him and Li Jiancheng to reason!
Of course, we don't know if it makes sense, Xu Xianchun's arrest in Shenyang this time has a characteristic, that is, half of the arrest is left behind, all the money is arrested, and those who are capable of being officials are left alone! Why is that?
After Sun Chengzhong's nonsense, the adults of all the prefectures sighed and went home, really, what kind of evacuation of the people? Now it's okay, the army is gone, and Houjin is coming to attack the city. Not even a few decent defenders were gone. There are still many innocent people among these officials, but Li Jiancheng doesn't like them very much. It deserves to be unlucky.
Yang Rong, the governor of Shenyang Prefecture, also shook his head and returned to the mansion, at this time his housekeeper ran over in a hurry and said: "Master, master, something is wrong!" ”
Yang made a shudder and said, "What's wrong?" It can't be that the city is broken! How old is this? ”
The housekeeper hurriedly said: "No, no, sir, it was several merchants in the city such as Fan and Tian who were suddenly taken by the special envoy Lord Xu, and they raided the house and arrested people!" It's all over here! ”
As soon as the housekeeper said this, Yang Yan immediately blew up his hair and asked, "What's the matter?" That Xu Xianchun has been a wine and meat pond since he came, and he stays in a brothel all day, why did he suddenly take people?"
The housekeeper also didn't understand and said, "Who said no, but now that you have just left, he has brought it into action, and he has also taken out the holy decree." Directly said that Fan, Tian and their merchants collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country to take people, and I wanted to inform the master for a long time, but the military camp was strictly not allowed to enter! ”
"Collaboration with the enemy and traitor? It's true? Yang sat down in his chair when he heard this.
His butler was embarrassed when he heard this, and he said, "Well, sir... What are these merchants doing here, we have always turned a blind eye, and the main thing is that their filial piety money is also in place on time, and it is very accurate... We don't know what they are mainly doing, but if they want to say that they collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, they were arrested. That... I'm afraid it's eight or nine inseparable! ”
How can Yang Zhen not understand, now that he has found out his head, it must be 100%, but now that the news that there are so many traitors under his rule has been transmitted back, it will definitely be enough for him Yang to drink a pot.
He hurriedly asked, "What else is the news?" That Xu Xianchun only arrested those businessmen, has there been a purge in the army! ”
The butler replied, "This... Not really, there is not a single movement in the army! ”
Yang screamed: "Oh no, come with me to Master Sun!" ”
Yang is talking badly, what's wrong? Naturally, it's a big mess. Obviously, like Yang Rong, he is not the only one who knows about the arrest of a large number of merchants in the city, everyone basically knows about the dissolution from Sun Chengzhong, and those merchants pay to honor him Yang Rong, which is all etiquette regulations, which is understandable. However, if they are engaged in smuggling, collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, it is obvious that there is a large number of collusion between the interests of officials and businessmen! And surely the army will not be able to get out of it! Now that these merchants have been arrested, maybe they will be the next one, and now they are the enemy! Isn't this pushing people to a dead end?
Obviously, the people who were pushed into a corner were much faster than his Yang's actions, and the city was already full of fireworks and chaos just after he left the mansion.
The guards at the main gate of Shenyang have been arranged by Sun Chengzong many times, and they are basically problem soldiers, and Xu Xianchun deliberately missed some fish that slipped through the net when he caught people, and it was easy for people to take risks when they reached the edge. As soon as those miscellaneous fish and those scum of the army combined, they felt that they could not sit idly by, and now that Nurhachi's army was outside the city, they only had to open the city gate to be a great credit, and they would start to rebel without doing anything!
On the Houjin side, Lu Erhachi just came over and saw that there was civil strife in the city of Shenyang, and the gate of Shenyang was suddenly opened, and fireworks broke out in the city. There were still people kneeling and surrendering in front of the city gate, and these people were stunned for a moment. Nurhachi thought it was a trick of the other party, but after thinking about it, such a good opportunity for the city gate to be opened, even if it is a trick, he will rush at him, otherwise he Nurhachi will not dare to go when the door is opened, what is that called!
Saying that now his main force is here with more than 70,000 people, and the main force in the city has just left what kind of big deal can put on a big position, Nurhachi ordered the Han and Mongol soldiers to put in front and start charging!
For a while, Shenyang was in chaos, artillery fire was indiscriminate, some soldiers were killing traitors, and some were firing artillery at the Houjin troops rushing outside the city, but after all, the general trend had been achieved, and the Houjin soldiers and horses did not take much effort to control the city gate.
By the time Yang Cheng ran in front of Sun Chengzong, it was already full of smoke and rain. You Shigong ran back covered in blood and said, "It's over, it's over, the city is broken!" ”
Yang Cheng was like losing his soul, he suddenly saw Xu Xianchun and grabbed him and scolded: "It's all you bastard, if you don't arrest people indiscriminately, how can those soldiers be the enemy is on the verge of defection!" ”
At this time, You Shigong looked at Xu Xianchun with a cold face, and he wanted to kill him. He is the same as Yang Rong, although the two of them are usually not good birds, not some of the great sages of the Qing Dynasty, but their positions are still very firm, and they are definitely iron and iron Ming Dynasty people.
Xu Xianchun looked at them without fear at all and said, "Hmph, the ghost knows that the collusion between your military and commercial officials here is so strict, and after finding out that those traders have all violated the royal law, can't you still deal with them?" After all, it's whose fault there are so many traitors under his command! ”
You Shigong and Yang Zao were speechless, Xu Xianchun ignored them, and went directly to Sun Chengzhong and said: "My lord, now that the city is broken, the general trend has gone!" It's better to evacuate quickly! ”
Sun Chengzhong listened and said: "No, the old decay is here by the emperor's grace, and if he can't defend the city, he will live and die with Shenyang City!" ”
As soon as Sun Chengzhong's words were said, You Shigong and Yang Zhen were shocked, and Xu Xianchun said again: "Don't, my lord, the loss of Shenyang is the fault of the anti-business traitors, and now I have collected enough evidence to make these anti-business traitors bear this evil result!" Adults are not allowed to be buried here! ”
Sun Chengzhong was silent when he heard it, and Yang Rong and You Shigong glared at Xu Xianchun when they heard it!
Xu Xianchun turned to look at Yang Yan and said, "Don't persuade adults yet!" ”
Yang Yan didn't want to die, so he immediately persuaded: "Master Sun is not afraid of running out of firewood to stay in the green mountains, let's go quickly!" ”
Sun Chengzhong still refused, and Xu Xianchun said at this time: "Lord Sun, people are inherently dead, but they must also die worthwhile!" Now that there are still the last people in the city, we need to protect them and evacuate, have you forgotten Your Majesty's words? The people are innocent, and adults must not make meaningless sacrifices! ”
Xu Xianchun's words also stimulated Sun Chengzhong, he naturally knew that Xiong Ting's large army had already been received, and he said: "Okay, let's take the last batch of soldiers and horses to escort this group of people out of the city!" ”
At this time, You Shigong shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not easy, there is not a single cavalry or soldier in the city, and we can't go far if we go out of the city!" ”
At this time, Xu Xianchun said: "It doesn't matter, I have ordered people to set fires everywhere in the city and blocked a lot of waterways, as long as Nurhachi doesn't want a ruin, he can't send too many people to chase us!" And the cavalry brought out by General He thought that if he hadn't encountered the Jin soldiers chasing the people, they should have been rushing back, and as long as we read the Hunhe River and let the people escape along the river, we will wait for the bridge to wait for rescue, and in the end it is a big deal to die in battle! ”
Xu Xianchun's words at this time were infectious, but he forgot that this guy actually set fire in advance, what kind of heart is this? You Shigong promised: "Since that's the case! That's such a big deal! (To be continued......)
