Chapter 406: The Destruction of the City (7)
"Li Yan, don't be clever about it, kill if you want to kill, kill if you want to, if I Huang Degong frowns, I won't be a hero."
Huang Degong was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, how could he give in because of Li Xingzhi's words.
"Huang Shuai, now the court is worried about internal and external troubles, Li Zicheng of the Central Plains gathered millions of people, always peeking at Kaifeng and Luoyang two important towns, although the eastern captives of Liaodong were hit hard by the governor of Bendu, but there are still nearly 100,000 elite soldiers, and they may enter the customs at any time.
Huang Degong was one of the few loyal generals in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, and the death of Zhou Yuji and his subordinates in battle had already made Li Xingzhi regretful, but now that Huang Degong was captured alive, it was natural to try his best to recruit him.
"Hehe, since the Metropolitan Governor is loyal to the imperial court, why don't you kill such a capricious villain?"
Huang Degong sneered again and again, pointing to Tian Xiong, a guerrilla of the Yongwei Battalion who was kneeling in front of Li Xingzhi.
"Who are you?"
Following Huang Degong's gaze, Li Xingzhi's eyes glanced at Tian Xiong, Guo Shao and others.
"The last general Tian Xiong, I have seen the Metropolitan Governor, although the last general resisted the Metropolitan Governor Tianwei, but the last general has already repented, and I ask the Metropolitan Governor to forgive his sins, by the way, Huang Degong is the last general, it is the last general!"
Tian Xiong's frightened face was like earth, and he kept kowtowing to Li Xingzhi.
"Uh...... General Tian led his troops to respond to Ben Hou's order, he is a big loyal minister, this Ben Hou really can't agree to Huang Shuai, otherwise Ben Shuai will not go back on his word, Huang Shuai still mentions other requirements! ”
Tian Xiong's life, Li Xingzhi knows, after Huang Degong died in history, it was this guy who surrendered to Duoduo with Emperor Hongguang on his back, and later in Zhejiang, he repeatedly defeated Zhu Yihai, the king of eastern Zhejiang, and Zheng Chenggong of Fujian, the official to the governor of Zhejiang, the governor of Zuodu, is really a solid traitor, but at this moment he did not go to the Ming Dynasty, and he is the person who led the troops anyway, if he kills him, who dares to surrender himself?
"Hehe, what you said is high-sounding, but in fact, it is still a wolf's ambition, and Huang only wants to die quickly!"
Huang Degong looked at Li Xing contemptuously, his neck was horizontal, and he closed his eyes and begged for death.
"Escort down first, the governor of Pontus is only here to set things right, how can he kill the loyal ministers of the court, Wang Gonggong, His Majesty killed Xue Ge Lao before, you can't get out of it, and now you are visiting His Royal Highness King De? Or do you want to continue to be embarrassed by the traitorous party in the court? ”
Huang Degong swore not to surrender, and Li Xingzhi had to look at the commander of Dongchang, the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, and Wang Dehua, the second person in the inner court of the Ming Dynasty.
"Hmph...... The matter of Xue Guoguan is the complicity of our family and Chen Xinjia and others, and it has nothing to do with Your Majesty. ”
Wang Dehua was also stiff, learning from Huang Degong's neck, and looked at Li Xingzhi contemptuously.
"You old eunuch, you dare to be so rude to our handsome, Lao Tzu killed you alive."
Li Bangjie was furious, and when he lifted the mace in his hand, he wanted to step forward to take someone.
"Stop, don't deal with it yet, wait until you enter the imperial city, you pass the order, the new four towns will immediately take over the nine gates of the inner city, the fourth town and the Manmeng green flag carry the captives of the Beijing camp and the Yongwei camp to surround the imperial city, the Han military banner is responsible for locking the ministers of the imperial court, raid the homes of a few ministers first, and the governor will reward the three armies."
According to the estimate of Xu Yixian, the commander of the military marshal's office who accompanied the army, there were more than 10,000 soldiers in the captured Beijing camp and Yongwei battalion, and there were only 20,000 people in the Jingbei army who entered the city.
"Oh, Dashuai, who did you copy first?"
Li Bangjie was a little confused, he had been in Shandong for a long time, where did he know the situation in Beijing.
"First copy the mansions of the university scholar Chen Yan, the Guozi priest Wei Zaode, the military department Shangshu Chen Xinjia, the military department to Gong Dingyu, as well as Gao Qiqian and Chengguo Duke Zhu Chunchen and Jiading Bo Zhou Kui's mansions, don't involve too many people first, wait until you take the palace, and then make plans."
"The last general commands!"
Li Bangjie hurriedly beckoned an iron man soldier beside him and asked him to find Zack, the owner of the green flag of the Han army, and Akema, the owner of the green flag of the Han army, and the two immediately led their troops to take people.
The battle in the outer city, not only the Forbidden City Chongzhen Emperor received the news, the officials in the inner city were also shocked by the loss of the outer city, before the Jingbei army eliminated the officers and soldiers of the Yongwei battalion, the officials of the Beijing division ran in tandem one by one, lest the city gate catch fire and affect the pond fish.
Zhao Yusen, a scholar from Hanlin, immediately went to the mansion of Wang Sunhui, the director of the Ministry of Rites, and said: "To know that Your Majesty is deep-rooted, and the matter of the Rande Domain's appeasement is really his own sin. If you donate your life to be martyred, if not, you will flee from the rich and rich, and the love is unbearable, so what? ”
Sun Hui sneered: "Since ancient times, the change of the imperial industry is the result of the loss of morality of the Son of Heaven, the so-called abolition of an emperor, the establishment of an emperor, and the act of the king of virtue to serve the heavens, is really a matter of responding to the heavens, and setting things right. With him taking the lead, the name is justified. ”
"What Brother Sun said is very true, I should go together!"
Zhao Yusen hurriedly agreed, and the two didn't have time to clean up, so they hurried to Chen's mansion.
Although the Jingbei Army has not yet entered the inner city, the Chongwen Gate and Zhengyang Gate have been lost, and officials in the city are everywhere.
As soon as Zhao Yusen and the others left the mansion, they met Zhang Qi, the director of the Ministry of Rites, and Qin Wang, the director of the Ministry of War.
Before Zhao Yusen could ask, Zhang Qi hurriedly spoke: "Two young brothers, there is no abandonment of the deceased, and the old man can still dance for His Royal Highness King De and the Metropolitan Governor." ”
Qin Wang, the head of the Ministry of War, also said loudly: "I have been determined for a long time, I have no comrades, I have to do all public affairs, and I will not suffer from no helper, and Zhao's brother-in-law is especially related to those who are related." ”
"Good! I don't dare to ask for it, and now the king of Germany is in the sky, it is really the will of the people, and the kings are going with a certain one! ”
Sun Hui laughed, originally he was still a little guilty about his betrayal of Chongzhen, but now seeing so many officials on the pole to join the new dynasty, the last bit of shame has disappeared.
The civil officials begged in all directions, and the nobles also ran in tandem, stumbling towards the mansion of Zhu Chunchen, the head of the nobles of the Beijing Division, but they ate a closed door, and no one expected that Zhu Chunchen had been summoned into the palace by the emperor.
Seeing that the Chengguo Mansion was closed, the nobles had to go home separately, ready to wait and see what happened, as for the mansion of Jiading Bo Zhoukui, Chongzhen was almost finished, who the hell dared to come to the door, and he was a nobleman who had enjoyed the country for a long time, this emperor was replaced by a German fan, and he was not a descendant of the old Zhu family, and he would not treat himself and others too much.
