1o-27 Death of Tuhai

The death battalion is the elite of the Red Shirt Regiment, Liu Ziguang's personal soldiers, all of them are good men who are ten at the top, this army is often used as the last reserve, at this time it was suddenly pressed, and Liu Ziguang personally led the team, the pressure on the Qing soldiers can be imagined, and they hit two blocks at once, pressing the Qing army to the front line of the Marshal's Mansion in Tuhai.

Hearing the sound of popping beans outside and the earth-shattering shouts of killing, Tu Hai still sat on his beloved tiger skin handsome chair without moving, and there were constantly heralds running in to report: The Ming army came over across the street, and the Ming army was killed at the corner of the street; The Ming army has reached the gate.

Tianjin originally had 30,000 horses, most of them were sent back to the capital by Tuhai, and most of the troops left behind were second-line troops, but under the spiritual inspiration of Marshal Tuhai, they all waved their usual combat effectiveness, the Ming army had few soldiers, and they were not familiar with the geography of Tianjin, so they were entangled in street fighting, and they did not take Tianjin for several hours, but now the Qing army in Tianjin has been divided and surrounded, and the destruction is only in an instant.

Although he personally led the troops to charge, but Liu Ziguang did not wave a knife to fight on the front line, as long as others went there to stop, the tooth flag was inserted, the Ming army was naturally like a rainbow, and the death battalion and the sailor Buyong water ghost team were like two sharp knives, inserted into the heart of Tianjin City-Tuhai Marshal Mansion.

The wall of the marshal's mansion is very high, a row of Qing soldiers hid behind and released arrows, the suppressed Ming army could not rush over, the Ming army quickly transferred an artillery, directly collapsed the wall, and then rushed up, hearing the sound of the battle had arrived at the door, Tu Haicai said in a deep voice: "Hang it up for me!" ”

Three pro-soldiers came over and helped Tu Hai put on a brand-new red flag armor, Tu Hai is not only the minister of military aircraft, the Tianjin guard, but also the capital of the red flag, his armor is a bright red cloth, decorated with steel armor, nailed with shiny copper nails outside, bright red tassels on the helmet, high spikes, majestic and majestic, after wearing, Tu Hai took out the treasure knife given by the emperor, and pointed to the gate: "Children, the time has come to be loyal to the country!" ”

Five hundred fresh troops roared out of the marshal's mansion, all with blood-red eyes and beards, the Ming army did not expect that there was such a strong opponent at this time, and they were caught off guard, but the elite soldiers were elite soldiers, and soon came back to their senses, and Tuhai's guards fought together, although the Manchu warriors regarded death as home, but the strength was there, whether it was a group fight or a single fight, they were not the opponents of the Red Shirts.

After a period of fighting, there were few five hundred elite soldiers left, but no one was a bad seed, all of them were facing forward and died, the Ming army also suffered a loss, lost more than 20 people, Tuhai threw it in the trapped beast and still fighting, although the old general was old, and there was a problem with coughing up blood, but he was still like a tiger in the mountains, and he was hacked to death several Ming soldiers, at this time he was still waving the sword in his hand like a splash of wind, and no one could get close.

Suddenly, there was a bang, Tu Hai's tiger body shook, and his left hand subconsciously covered his chest, this was a shameful bullet, which insidiously attacked the old general, but Tu Hai still did not fall, waving his sword, and screaming in his mouth: "Kill, kill, kill!" ”

There was another bang, and more than a dozen brilliant blood flowers bloomed on Tu Hai's body, he couldn't support it anymore, spit out a mouthful of blood, propped it on the ground with a treasure knife, and tried to stand up straight, looking at Liu Ziguang who came over in the distance, and actually smiled.

Liu Ziguang looked at the battle situation in the courtyard with a calm face, all the Qing troops were killed, none of them surrendered, and now only this Lord Tuhai wearing the armor of a first-class military attache is standing.

Tu Hai was speechless, and there was blood foaming in his mouth, but he was still staring at Liu Ziguang and sneering, as if he was demonstrating to him: "The heroes of the Qing Dynasty can't be defeated!" ”

The Ming army surrounded Tu Hai, dozens of guns were aimed at him, but no one fired, they were all waiting for the commander's order, Liu Ziguang looked at Tu Hai twice, didn't say anything, and nodded to Wen Getao, the sailor standing next to him.

Wen Getao understood, and rushed up with an arrow, and the three-foot Qingfeng in his hand slashed down like lightning, and directly cut off Tu Hai's head, but Tu Hai's headless body still stands.

"Take Tuhai's head to show the public, and let the recalcitrant Qing army surrender." After Liu Ziguang finished speaking, he led the people away, and after walking a few steps, he turned back and said: "Don't spoil his body, after all, it's a man, let's bury it thickly." ”

As soon as Tuhai died, Tianjin's last will to resist also collapsed, but the whole battle annihilated 10,000 enemies, and few surrendered.

Tianjin was recovered, but everyone was not happy, because the casualties of the people were also very heavy, and the street fighting inevitably hurt the people, the Qing army set a fire in the last madness, almost burned half of Tianjin, and the remaining half of the city was saved after the desperate efforts of the army and the people.

This battle was fought very hard, and it also exposed some deficiencies of the Red Shirts in the street fighting, the lack of continuous fire weapons and surface killing firearms, Tianjin has been captured, and the next stop is Beijing, but it is necessary to shelter the refugees in Tianjin first, and help them build a new home in the rubble, because Tuhai let the grain depot burn, so the people have no food to eat, Liu Ziguang asked the army to save some rations to help the people, and ordered the sailors to quickly transport grain to solve the difficulties in Tianjin.

Peng Chun's men and horses were attacked countless times along the way, but it was not the Ming army, but the anti-thieves of the Heaven and Earth Society, these shameless clowns only dared to act in secret, and now the Ming army is coming, they have also begun to make trouble, and they actually dare to attack the Qing army brigade in broad daylight, kill a few people, grab something and run, although the Qing army Xiao cavalry camp has a lot of people and horses, but it is not enough to take care of tens of thousands of people, and they have asked for a lot of cheapness.

But what is really terrible is the threat of the Ming army from the sky, two medium-sized airships have been following them closely, dropping bombs from the sky from time to time, disrupting the march of the team, the airships are too high, the bows and arrows of the Qing army are helpless, fortunately they carry not a lot of bombs, otherwise this escape road will become a road of death, even so it still killed and injured a lot of Manchu people, causing great confusion, so that many unfamiliar faces mixed into the fleeing team and no one noticed.

Peng Chun finally led tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians into Yongdingmen, after getting the news of the fall of Tianjin, the Manchu authorities did not panic, but shrank their troops, and transferred the troops of the Fengtai battalion back to the city, Beijing is huge, and the outer city of the inner city is several layers of the imperial city palace city, this city built in the pre-Ming period can be called a fortress, plus the Qing army has been operating for many years, it is even more impregnable.

If the enemy does not have more than 200,000 troops, he will not be able to encircle Beijing at all, Beijing's city wall is very thick and very high, and there is a wide moat, far from Tianjin can be compared, there are rivers and lakes in the city, countless wells, there are countless grains stored in the grain depot, and there are a lot of open spaces, it is not a problem to grow vegetables and raise pigs, several large warehouses are full of armor and weapons, not to mention that there are 100,000 horses, Kangxi once declared after inspecting the defense of Beijing: Even 500,000 Ming troops can not beat Beijing City for a hundred years.

This Ming army is just Liu Ziguang's men, twenty or thirty thousand people, even if the weapon is powerful, what can it be, Nalan Mingzhu on the Shanhaiguan side will exert pressure, Hong Chengchou on the Shandong side will also storm Qingdao, and the war in the west is obviously not favorable to the Ming Dynasty.

Tuhai's death made Kangxi very sad, and ordered someone to build a mound to mourn in person, Tuhai injured his testicles during the early war, and has been childless under his knees, fortunately, Peng Chun thanked the old general for his kindness, and was willing to put himself into the door as a son, Kangxi praised him, and vigorously gave Tuhai a funeral, posthumously awarded him the crown prince Taibao, a first-class marquis, and even Peng Chun was also rewarded, inheriting his father's Zhenghongqi Dutong position, anyway, the soldiers of Zhenghongqi are almost there, and they are just an empty shelf.

The emperor treated the loyal ministers well, so that the morale of the capital was greatly boosted, the Manchu people seemed to have restored the customs and traditions of the former soldiers and the people for a while, picked up the bow, arrow, knife and gun, put on the armor left by the ancestors, and boarded the city to guard the guard, the women opened up their own back garden into a vegetable garden, planted melons, fruits and vegetables, raised chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, Manchu children also picked up wooden knives and bamboo bows, and played the trick of the Qing soldiers fighting the Ming soldiers on the streets, often the most nested and shortest of the children in this group of children were forced to dress up as Liu Ziguang, was beaten half to death by everyone and was cut dozens of times by a wooden knife, known as "Cutting the Red Shirt Thief"

Slow people excitedly can't do it, but the Han people in the capital have suffered, not to mention that the food at home has been robbed, and they have to be forcibly pulled to repair the city wall, they all know that the Ming army has arrived in Tianjin, and the Tartars can't jump for a few days, so while grinding foreign workers who are yang and yin, they secretly hope that the soldiers of Zhenwuhou will come soon.

There are a lot of Han people in the capital, so it is easy for the heroes to find a place to hide, and now these good men are not simple, they all have waist cards on their bodies, and they have their own grades written on them, they are officials, and they belong to the members of the secret organization under the personal leadership of Zhenwuhou, and they also have the characteristics of Zhenwuhou when they do things, and they ordered the grain and grass of the Qing army on the first night, if they were not saved quickly, 100,000 loads of military food would have turned into black charcoal.

The Qing army wantonly searched and arrested, and the Manchu and Han relations in the city deteriorated again, originally Da Yuer implemented the Huairou policy, but he didn't dare to be soft at this juncture, Liu Ziguang was in Tianjin, and there were so many Han people in the capital, in case of a big mess, it would hurt the muscles and bones, so the Empress Dowager strictly ordered: Anyone who colludes with the Ming army will be punished by the nine clans!

Now the counter-espionage agency of the Qing State has been stripped out of the military aircraft, and it has a majestic name called "Blood Drops", and the members are mainly Manchu officers and Han martial arts scum, and it is precisely because of the participation of the Han people that it is very efficient.

Song Ziyue, the former young man of the Heaven and Earth Society, who was thrown into the big dung pit last time and was lucky not to die, has now officially entered the Six Doors Service, and is a small leader of the Blood Drops, who walks around the capital in civilian clothes every day, specializing in searching for old friends of the Heaven and Earth Society.

Song Ziyue ate too much feces last time, he fell seriously ill, and after recovering from his illness, he was no longer as handsome as before, plus he had two mustaches in order to pretend to be mature and stable, so it was difficult for those old people of the Heaven and Earth Society to recognize him before.

Song Ziyue sat idly in the street teahouse, but his eyes were not idle, staring at every pedestrian on the street, and after a while, a familiar back came into view: slender waist, dignified and pure appearance, isn't this the eldest lady Dai Wenpei in the former Iron Courage Village outside the capital?
