Chapter 290
I had heard of the prosperity of Jinling City, but when Li Xiao entered the city, he saw that it was full of devastation. Jinlingcheng resembles a severely tortured prisoner, his body covered with wounds.
Almost all the buildings bear the marks of being hit by bullets, and smoke rises from countless houses. The ground was littered with uncleaned corpses, rats roamed the streets in broad daylight, and the living had to hide everywhere for fear of being found.
Rats gnaw at the stumps and severed arms that dot the streets, and people in the dark are catching rats everywhere to satisfy their hunger.
The towering palace wall stands in the center of Jinling City, and the palace built by Mr. Zhu Yuanzhang lies quietly there like a giant beast. Belch...... A giant beast with missing front teeth!
The vermilion lacquer gate, studded with copper nails, was broken into eight pieces, and it was covered with footprints. There were still scorched marks on a few pieces, and the inside of the urn city was almost filled with corpses. The walls were full of shocking bloodstains, all kinds of human organs were scattered on the stone slabs, and the smell of fishy smell made people faint. Countless flies are breeding here, and when Li Xiao walks over, the "buzz" and "buzz" sound of flies has the effect of a bomber.
After entering the palace, Li Xiao felt a headache even more. In the distance, there were eunuchs and palace maids scurrying around, as well as countless Ma Shiying's subordinates, searching everywhere like hounds.
What people play with what birds!
Put it on Ma Shiying, that is, who brings what soldiers.
Li Xiao absolutely didn't believe that these sneaky guys were exercising to enhance their physique and resist pneumonia.
"Bring those soldiers here." Li Xiao pointed at the horsewhip, and Zu Kuan urged the horse to run over.
The soldiers still wanted to resist, but when they saw that the cavalry was holding a long-barreled revolver rifle, they immediately became obedient. They knew that the long-barreled revolver rifle was the standard equipment of the Liao army. If you want to join the Liao Army in the future, don't offend these masters.
"Search!" Pulled in front of Li Xiao, Li Xiao didn't even bother to ask. There were so many bags in their pockets that two of them couldn't walk.
Strings of pearl necklaces, gold nails. The one who stole less took out two jade pendants in his arms. One of them was covered in blood, and if you look closely, you can see fingerprints printed on it.
"Do you know the three disciplines and eight points of attention?" Li Xiao had a cold face.
Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng behind him didn't say a word, just looked up at the sky. It was as if they were kneeling on the ground, not their soldiers.
A few guys shook their heads blankly, what are the three disciplines and eight attentions? Haven't heard of it!
"All seizures will be returned to the public, don't you know?" Li Xiao looked at these unlucky eggs coldly.
Ruan Dacheng and Ma Shiying continued to study the weather, and their men gathered in the distance to watch. The noise was very chaotic, more like bandits than like an army.
"If you go back to your lordship, everything seized will be returned to the public. Didn't he lay down Jinling and let the brothers live happily for three days? A fool dared to ask, he only knew that the person in front of him was a senior official of the Liao army, but he didn't know who the person in front of him was.
"Bastard, dare to Hu Qin in front of the handsome, Lao Tzu tears your mouth." Hearing the stupid words, Ruan Dacheng was about to faint on the spot. Ma Shiying felt the blood all over his body gushing to his head, he wasn't joking, he really wanted to tear this stinky mouth, and then pull out his tongue.
"Handsome?" Xiaobing hasn't figured out yet, Ma Shiying is not his own handsome, and who is this handsome.
"Forget it! He was shot on the spot, and orders were given not to rob indiscriminately. Whoever dares to take out one piece of the palace will leave this life behind. Ma Shiying, take your soldiers out of the city. Waiting for the adaptation! Li Xiao commanded, and Li Hu immediately jumped off the horse. Break the hammer and shoot it all in the head. The corpses of several minions fell to the ground one after another!
"No!" Ma Shiying was so frightened that he trembled, and this Li Xiao slaughtered people alive with his eyes.
On the day of the city breaking, it was a big pie that he painted. I originally planned to take advantage of the opportunity of the city to break, but it was not okay to grab it for three days, but it was still no problem to grab it for one day. But he never expected that Li Xiao would enter the city before the gunfire had completely stopped.
Now how to explain to those Qiu Ba has become Ma Shiying's top priority.
Ruan Dacheng saw Ma Shiying's trembling legs and continued to study today's weather. When disaster comes, he flies separately, and he can't help with this.
"Ruan Dacheng, you immediately find out all the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace and settle down. Let them clean the palace, and if there is anything that needs to be repaired, you can also find someone to repair it. Two hundred years of royal architecture cannot be destroyed in your hands. β
"No!" Ruan Dacheng also agreed, and gave Ma Shiying a helpless look. With his entourage, he ran to catch the palace maids and eunuchs who were running around!
I saw Wen Tiren's corpse, which was covered with holes, not much different from a hornet's nest. In addition, I learned after an introduction that it was Wen Tiren's nephew, Wen Tao, the commander of the 13th Division. This brother is not bad, except for the loss of half of his chin, there seems to be nothing wrong. No matter how you look at it, this guy is dead and dead.
"Everyone is dead, find a coffin and bury it." Looking at Wen Tiren's corpse, the villain is already dead, and there is no need to play those tricks of three days of violent corpses. For three days in the month, people stink.
"Emperor Yongli has not found it?"
"Back to the words of the handsome, I found it. He hanged himself, and his body was in the side hall. Ruan Dacheng ran back very doggedly, nodding his head when he spoke to Li Xiao, which was not much different from the devil translator in the movie.
"Confirmed?" I heard that the person died, and Li Xiao didn't bother to look at it. He doesn't know Zhu Yujian!
"It has been verified, and it is indeed Emperor Yongli."
"Huzi, he is also a generation of emperors. You find a few old eunuchs in the palace and restrain the people. Li Xiao squeezed his eyes at Li Hu, Li Hu immediately understood, ignored Ruan Dacheng, who was bowing, and led someone to arrest the old eunuch and ask about the authenticity of the corpse.
"Farewell to the capital, the next official ......!" Li Hu is gone, and Ruan Dacheng plans to take advantage of this opportunity to get close. The body of Emperor Yongli was hung up by him, and it was verified that there would be no problems with the body.
"Yes! As soon as the capital is farewell, you didn't expect that the Southern Ming Dynasty court didn't survive for two years. Thinking about that time, I really can't blame you. The epidemic was rampant in Beijing, Shandong, and Hebei, and the total number of soldiers of the Liao army was only five divisions and 50,000 people. What's more, the situation in Shandong is unstable. Who would have thought that two years later, Lao Tzu would be able to capture Jinling. The divisions of the Liao army are rampant all over the world, and they will unify the Ming Dynasty in the near future.
Speaking of which, when Lord Ruan was in Beijing, my Li Xiao still has words in my ears! Li Xiao squinted his eyes at Ruan Dacheng, Ruan Dacheng was so frightened that his legs weakened, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed without saying a word.
"Merit is merit, passing is over! In any case, you and Ma Shiying have contributed to the matter in Jinling this time. The affairs of the inner palace have been dealt with, and I just asked you to gather all the inner servants in the palace and let them guard the palace and not run around. β
"If you go back to Dashuai, this errand is not difficult. As long as you find the eunuch who is the head of the Shangshan prison and Shanyi, the head of the palace maids, the two of them will do the work. The palace was able to calm down quickly, and the subordinates were worried that there was no one waiting for the marshal here, so they came over to help. Xia Guan doesn't have much ability, but he has lived in this Jinling City for a few years, and he is just familiar with the head and ground. Every nerve on Ruan Dacheng's fat face tried to show a flattering smile.
"You're going to run errands! That being the case, Lord Ma was gathering his troops and withdrawing outside the city gates to await reorganization. I'm afraid he won't be able to do it alone, so since you're familiar with each other, then you can also go and help. Li Xiao snorted inside his nose.
"No! The lower officials will go, and they will go. Ruan Dacheng responded to the promise, hurriedly bowed and saluted, and ran to help Ma Shiying gather the troops.
After an afternoon of busy work, the palace can be regarded as a stop.
"The eunuch Cui Taiyan, the leader of the servant Shangshan Prison, knocked on the marshal, and didn't know if the marshal wanted to pass on dinner. Do you arrange a palace maid to sleep at night? An old eunuch in her fifties and an old woman who was also in her fifties stood in front of Li Xiao.
This is the head of the Shangshan Prison in the palace, the eunuch and the female official of the Shangyi Bureau who manages the palace maid, these two people are capable. After the GIs withdrew, the two of them quickly stabilized the chaotic situation in the harem. Each palace maid and eunuch returned to their positions, and quickly took stock of the losses, and repaired the damaged areas within their capabilities.
"No need! This is the palace, I can't live here. Li Xiao said as he walked out.
"Dashuai, you work hard for the country, you are the most qualified to live in this ......!" Eunuch Cui wanted to say more, but Li Xiao had already walked out of the palace gate. Who has nothing to do to find a place full of corpses to sleep, bad luck!
Li Xiao has important things to do tonight, where do you have time to live in the palace.
The barracks of Ma Shiying's headquarters outside the city were the barracks of the 13th Division of the original Liao Army. Originally, this was the residence of Nie Dahu's department, and it was vacated according to Li Xiao's order.
Being able to live in a ready-made house, Ma Shiying is still quite satisfied. Most of the Liao troops outside the city still live in tents, and Jinling in summer is known as a furnace. The tent had been dried all day, and living there was a word for itβsin.
"It can be seen that the handsome man is still very satisfied with us." Ma Shiying looked at Ruan Dacheng with a smile, this thing didn't talk about hooliganism during the day, and he didn't help himself speak, as if it hadn't happened.
"That is, it all depends on the master of the military department to plan and command well, and this can be regarded as passing. Otherwise, our fate ...... Ay...... That Wen Tiren died miserably enough, and he was shot forty or fifty times. It was like a sieve, and he was shot three or four times in the face. I can hardly see the appearance of the person, a generation of first assistants ended up like this, miserable! Ruan Dacheng saw Wen Tiren's corpse and was quite emotional.
"Humph! Whoever made him ignorant of current affairs will have the word "power" left in his head. The smart people of the two lists of Jinshi were finally ruined by the word greed. If we don't learn from him, if we get enough money, our children and grandchildren will be rich and prosperous for a lifetime even if they don't become officials. Brother Ruan! This is the strategy of life! β
"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years! When he was a brother, he was not up and down in the sea of eunuchs, and he only had the word power in his mind. Fighting all day long, isn't it empty in the end? You can see it, Lord Ma! Ruan Dacheng arched his hand at Ma Shiying, expressing great admiration.
The two men were talking, and suddenly there was a noise outside. At first, it was just one or two people, but then it developed into a chaotic commotion, and I don't know how many people participated.
"What's going on, somebody making noise outside. Although the weapons were handed over today, military discipline still has to be discussed. Ma Shiying is angry, but Lao Tzu is still the person he is talking about here.
"Back to my lordship, some soldiers outside are noisy. said that the adults had promised to let them not seal the knife for three days. Now that the day is not finished, I took them out of the city. Talking about adults doesn't count! The little officer who was guarding the door outside said with some embarrassment.
Ma Shiying could guess with his ass that those Qiu Ba could say anything. Perhaps, the women in his own family were greeted by these Qiu Ba in their hearts.
"My lord, the soldiers are clamoring to see your lordship. It's a little unstoppable outside! Ma Shiying just held his breath when suddenly someone outside ran in to report.
"Bastards, tell those bastards. If they dare to make trouble again, they will be arrested and dealt with by military law. Ma Shiying was so angry that his head was dizzy. It was only the first night, and the soldiers gave themselves eye medicine. If Li Xiao knew that he had no control over the troops, then Li Xiao would definitely look down on him. When the time comes, how can you get high-ranking officials to go!
"Tell the soldiers to give them an explanation tomorrow, and now let them go back to sleep." Ruan Dacheng is still smart, and the current solution is a flip-flop. As long as the time is delayed, tomorrow's trouble will be Li Xiao's. There are more than 20,000 people, and Li Xiao is willing to steam or braise it with him. As long as the army is safely handed over to Li Xiao, he doesn't care about the life or death of these people.
"That's right! Tell those people that tomorrow the official will naturally give them an explanation. Ma Shiying was so smart that he immediately understood what Ruan Dacheng meant. It's far easier to delay now than to go out and play the pressure.
"No!" The petty officer immediately walked out.
Soon, however, the petty officer ran back again. "My lord, those soldiers didn't buy it, and still insisted that the adults go out and answer." When the petty officer came in, his face was scarred, and there was faint blood oozing.
"Bastard, this official worships the Shangshu of the Sanpin Military Department, and they can see it if they want to? Let them go, or military law will do it. "Ma Shiying is furious, this is eye medicine, this is purely eye medicine for himself.
"You immediately send someone to contact the nearby Liao soldiers, and say that the Nanjing Forbidden Army here is going to rebel, please send troops quickly, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." Ruan Dacheng listened to the sound outside, and there were not five thousand but three thousand people. With so many people in the army making trouble together, this incident is a disaster.
"My lord, I'm surrounded and can't get out."
"Oh no! They came in. A soldier stumbled in.
"It's in, it's going to be a rebellion."
