Chapter 1029: Fish Slipping Through the Net in the Troubled City (II)
Successfully laid Kaifeng, drove straight in, and then there was no obstruction, until today's Dadu Governor's Mansion, the original Zhao Song Palace.
But Sun Ning was not a little happy because of this, just because the chaos in the city was still there, and the important officials and others who Qin Yude, who should have been quickly captured, also took advantage of the chaos to flee and disappeared.
Therefore, after taking a seat at the height of the spacious and magnificent main hall, Sun Ning immediately ordered: "Let Yan Hu and other generals come to see me as soon as possible, and let them suppress the soldiers below and not act mischief, why is it not effective?"
After a short time, Yan Hu and seven or eight of his subordinates hurried over, and when they saw the emperor's expression, several people also understood the reason in their hearts, and they all bowed down to ask for sin: "Your Majesty forgives me, it is really that after entering the city, the soldiers and horses were scattered, and it was impossible to restrain the whole army for a while, so that it ......."
"Even so, our army has its own laws, and we shouldn't set up arson and kill the people!" Sun Ning rebuked with a calm face, "It's getting late now, I'll give you two hours, before the second watch, I want to open the city to restore calm, otherwise if there are innocent people who violate the law, they will be severely punished according to law."
Several generals still wanted to plead and hope for more time, but they were quickly stopped by Yan Hu with a look. He knows very well what Sun Ning is like, that is the existence of one and the same.
Moreover, this destruction of the city came from the stratagons of His Majesty the Emperor, and his prestige in the army was even heavier, so how could there be room for bargaining among their courtiers?
Therefore, he immediately agreed: "The minister will order, the minister will quell the rebellion in Kaesong as soon as possible and pacify the people of the city."
"Hmm." Sun Ning's face softened slightly, and then he said with a straight face, "Also, immediately block all the gates of the city, and no one is allowed to leave the city except those who hold our military orders. Then send three light horsemen of 100 men out of the city, and search all over the north and west, and the common people will be enough, especially those who have escaped with unusual status, and arrest them all, and if they resist, they will be killed!"
Yan Hu hurriedly bent down again to receive the order, and at the same time had a judgment in his heart, obviously this was aimed at those important people in Kaifeng who were very likely to have taken advantage of the chaos to get out of the city. These people really can't let them escape, and they must use the real elite to pursue them.
At that moment, Yan Hu and these generals withdrew from the lobby, and they didn't dare to slack off any longer, and immediately issued one serious military order after another.
Soon after, a fast horse galloped on the main streets of Kaifeng City, passing on the emperor's will to strictly prohibit the cruelty of the people.
But even so, under the temptation of various interests, beauty and other benefits, many red-eyed soldiers still found it difficult to hold themselves back, relying on the chaos in the city and the law to not blame the people, and acted recklessly.
However, as time went by, after Yan Hu and the others directly killed dozens of low-level officers who still violated Hu Lai's orders, the situation was finally eased.
After nearly an hour passed, the whole city was finally restrained, and some of them were ordered to go to receive the gates of all sides and block the roads in and out of the gates. On the other hand, the whole city is running around, intimidating and appeasing on the one hand, and persuading the large number of people left in the city to go home.
It's just that after this incident, the casualties of the people in Kaifeng are extremely heavy, and the corpses lying in pools of blood can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.
But at this point, he can only continue to appease, and then send people to post notices to the people, after all, he can't really investigate those soldiers who robbed the people and killed innocent soldiers.
After all, they really made a great contribution this time, and after taking the city, it is reasonable to do something because they are too excited, or want to take advantage of the chaos.
The legal principle is nothing more than human affection, even if Sun Ning is the emperor's honor, if he wants all the soldiers to obey the will and fight for themselves, the benefits that should be given are indispensable after all. There are some things that can only be turned a blind eye.
Therefore, not only can he not severely punish these subordinates, but after restraining everyone, tomorrow, he will have to take out the money and silk in the treasury of the city to reward the three armies.
Of course, these things are naturally arranged by the officials under him, and Sun Ning really doesn't need to bother with it. And he had not rested until this time, waiting for the reward of others
。
Sure enough, after the third watch, Yang Xuan came to report: "Your Majesty, General Yan's subordinates Du Hu, Ma Qianjun and others caught many officials in the city when they searched in the city, all of them are important henchmen around Qin Yude, I don't know how to deal with them?"
"Put them all in custody and talk about them together tomorrow when more people are caught." Sun Ning's spirits perked up slightly, "Is that Qin Yude's eldest son named Qin Fang among them?"
"No. Not only him, but also Peng Qi, who had been planning to defend the city before, also disappeared. According to some of the captives, they had seen Peng Qi turn around before the city was broken, and then they took Qin out of this mansion, as if they were heading west......
Sun Ning frowned: "Is it so long? I'm afraid they've taken advantage of the chaos to get out of the city......," he said, sighing again, "so we can only hope that the soldiers who sent out to the city will find them and bring them back."
Under the cold wind of the cold moon, Lu Chou felt that his luck this time was really good.
I thought that it was just a chore to be named by General Yan to lead 200 of his subordinates out of the city to search for the rebel thieves and thieves who might have fled, and he missed the opportunity to make a fortune in the city.
But as a result, after catching the fleeing people in a few strokes and intimidating some of them, he really found a clue, and pursued along a path to the west, and at this time saw the picture of a group of more than a dozen people, walking through the snow and escaping for their lives.
Obviously, these more than ten people are the target people they are looking for.
In such a harsh climate and environment, and so late at night, the ordinary people who fled have long been panicked and fought separately, how can there still appear as united as this group of people in front of them?
Moreover, he also saw two of them looking at the weaker guys, and when they almost fell into the deep snow, the people next to them helped them get out of trouble, and then helped them to continue moving forward.
Now it is more likely that the two in the middle are noble, and the others are guards, so we must spare no effort to help them escape for their lives.
Then what else is there to say, the credit in hand is naturally to be grasped.
At that moment, Lu Chou had already pointed the spear in his hand forward, and shouted, "Go on, take them all down, especially the middle two, I want to live!"
Suddenly, the two hundred horsemen had suddenly picked up speed, and all the soldiers shouted, like a hunting tiger and wolf staring at their prey, and brazenly slaughtered the past.
