Chapter 144: Escape and Tragedy

As soon as the order to evacuate the whole city was issued, it caused an uproar in the city.

Why?

We have lived in Shengjing for more than ten years, and every grass, tree, brick and tile here is our painstaking efforts.

Now I have to travel lightly and bring only valuable things.

Is that?

Houses and fields are all robbed, where else is there anything valuable?

We don't go.

My golden iron cavalry is invincible in the world, can only the Ming people capture our city?

If you want to go, I swear to live and die with my mansion!

I don't know if it was Jiannu's previous invincibility that gave them information, most people didn't believe that Shenyang would be so easy to break. The people below are ignorant, and the people above are already actively preparing.

At this time, the aristocratic class of Jiannu was already busy, and they were reluctant to stay, and they were not willing to stay. In the end, Huang Taiji had no choice but to order that except for all necessary materials, nothing else was allowed to be taken away.

You guys figure it out!

It's a run for your life! It's not about going out!

Mang Gurtai led his subordinates to escape from Shenyang City first.

Huang Taiji second.

When leaving, Huang Taiji ordered Sakhalian, Dudu, and Haoge to lead 2,000 people each to break off, and was responsible for supervising the transfer of the people in the city. In addition to this, there is an important task:

Set fire to the city!

Not a single intact beam was left for the Ming army!

It wasn't until people found out that the Great Khan had really shifted strategically that they reluctantly came to their senses.

It turned out that it was time to run for your life.

By this time, it was the third day.

Sakhalian rode anxiously around the city, shouting from time to time.

"Don't take it! Don't you see that the ox cart can't pull it!? Still not running? Do you really want to die!? ”

There are always some stubborn people in this world who don't hit the south wall and don't look back.

So there is a good saying, good words are hard to persuade damned ghosts.

"Sakhalian! Come on! Leave it alone! The Ming army is coming! Hauge said anxiously as he rode over on his fast horse.

"What!? Where's it going? ”

"Ten miles away!"

"What else are you running? With so many people, can we run away? ”

Sakhalian said dejectedly.

How fast they can run with these people.

"Take the people with you. I'll break it off! ”

"Alright, Hauge! What a hero. It's better to die together. Send these last people out of the city, and we will guard in this Shengjing. It all shows that people have sharp firearms, and I would like to see it. Do you dare? ”

"Why don't you dare!? But one death! Hauge widened his eyes and exclaimed.

"Good! Our brothers will come to meet these Ming soldiers today! ”

"Count me in!"

Du Du on the side also shouted.

The news of the arrival of the Ming army increased the speed of the escape of the Jiannu people, but the Ming army finally arrived.

Sakhalian ordered the gates to be closed, and was with Haug and Dudu.

"If the Ming army is really sharp, we will definitely not be able to defend this city. Presumably, we will inevitably die today, and there are still 6,000 soldiers and horses under the command of you and me. It is better to rely on the buildings in the city to fight with the Ming army in the streets, and kill one more to count one. ”

"Okay!"

The three of them immediately summoned soldiers and each made a pre-war mobilization, preparing to fight to the death with the Ming army.

When Zu Dashou arrived with his army, he saw a city that was stronger than Liaoyang, but there was no one on the city wall.

"General soldier, judging from the ruts and horseshoe prints, the Tartars in Shenyang City have run away. And it shouldn't have gone far! ”

"In which direction did you flee?"

"Towards the old town of Hetuala!"

Zu Dashou nodded and thought about it.

It is very likely that their own conscienceless cannon is too powerful, and the Tartars are frightened to abandon the city and flee. But what's the matter with the gates closed now? Is there anyone else in the city?

"Zhanyu, you lead 5,000 cavalry to pursue. Be careful, if something doesn't go well, withdraw immediately! Zu Dashou thought for a while and decided to let Zhu Kezhen lead the army to pursue.

Zhu Kezhen gave up his hand and took the five thousand elite horses and roared away.

Watching Zhu Kezhen go away, Zu Dasheng invited Li Zicheng to discuss the siege of the city.

"General Soldier Zu, my suggestion is that no matter whether there is anyone in the city, use two shots of the conscienceless cannon first and then attack the city. It's the safest way to do it. ”

"Okay!"

After obtaining Zu Dashou's consent, Li Zicheng ordered his subordinates to set up a phalanx. This time it was easier, and since there was no one at the head of the city, there was no resistance at all. Soon the cannon barrel was set up, and Li Zicheng gave an order, and the explosive bag flew out and landed on the top of the city, with a bang.

After the explosion, there was still no movement in the city.

Zu Dashou decided to send people to attack.

10,000 infantry rushed towards the city gates, but met no resistance until they reached the city walls.

The soldiers who entered the city quickly opened the gates, and the cavalry began to rush into the city.

At this time, the battle suddenly began.

Sakhalian and others in the city knew that the Ming army had advanced firearms and it was difficult to defend the city, so they simply gave up defending on the city wall and retreated directly into the city, scattered in various positions in the city.

When all the infantry and cavalry of the Ming army entered the city, they brazenly launched an attack.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the mourning soldiers will win, which may not be absolute, but at this time, it has endowed the Jiannu soldiers with extremely strong strength.

There were quite a lot of houses in the city, which was not conducive to the cavalry charge. Only infantry could be sent to encircle and suppress. For a time, there were battles in the city, and in terms of individual combat effectiveness, the Ming army was slightly inferior. The numerical advantage has also become weaker in the city.

For a time, there were heavy casualties. Soon, someone reported the situation in the city to Zu Dashou.

Zu Dashou asked Li Zicheng to send soldiers into the city to bombard the enemy with unconscionable artillery, and Li Zicheng agreed.

But when the soldiers entered the city, they found that it was difficult for the cannon to work without conscience.

There are two main reasons for this.

First, the soldiers were scattered and constantly on the move.

Second, Jiannu is entangled with his own soldiers, and if he fires an explosive package, he will inevitably injure his soldiers by mistake. Unless all your soldiers are withdrawn.

But then there will be a new problem, Shenyang City is so big, and Jiannu will not stand still and let you fight. What's more, the conscienceless cannon has a short range, and if it is accidentally robbed of the conscienceless cannon, it is very likely to cause immeasurable casualties to your own side.

Zu Dashou was also helpless when he learned of this situation, and now the battle has entered the scorching heat, and if he withdraws his troops, he will cause greater casualties to his side.

Shenyang City has been captured, and the next thing is nothing more than the size of the casualties. Thinking of this, he sent all his infantry into the city. Compared with the great achievement of breaking Shenyang, the dead soldiers are really nothing.

More than 20,000 infantry poured into the city and launched an encirclement and suppression of the 6,000 Eight Banner soldiers in the city.

Sakhalian rushed to the left and right, and was extremely brave, and from time to time Ming troops were killed in his hands. But he also received the focus of the Ming army, and there were more and more Ming soldiers around him. Finally, a soldier took advantage of his unpreparedness and slashed him in the arm, and he roared in pain, turned around and killed the soldier.

Sakhalian, who was wounded, was even more courageous, and killed several more people with the help of his thick armor.

But he also had a few more wounds on his body.

Gasping and looking back, the soldiers who followed him were all surrounded. And all around him were Ming troops. He laughed miserably and rushed towards the Ming army again.

"Devouring the Starry Sky: Signing in to Become a God"

If you stay, you don't plan to get out alive.

How many can I exchange my life for, but how many of them will count.

I didn't disgrace Daikin.

That was his last thought.

Sakhalian eventually died at the hands of the Ming army, and the same thing continued to happen in all corners of the city. The desperate struggle of Jiannu in the city brought a lot of casualties to the Ming army, but it still could not change the overall situation.

Shortly after Sakhalian's death, Chu Ying's son Du Du was killed in battle.

This was followed by Hwang Taiji's son, Hauge.

The three of them took the Jiannu soldiers in the city to compose the last elegy for themselves with their lives.

There were still Jiannu people in the city who had time to escape, and they also picked up their weapons knowing that they would die. Old people and women rushed towards the Ming army one by one.

The battle was completely subdued after an hour, and the lonely courage could not withstand a single decapitation.

When Zu Dashou entered the city, the soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield.

He once again gave the order to kill the slaves in the city.

Then he ordered Man Gui and Zhao to lead 2,000 cavalry out of the city to the north, and sweep in Tieling and Liaohai.

Now that Shenyang has been abandoned, it is estimated that Tieling and Liaohai Erwei will no longer resist.

On the other side, Zhu Kezhen led 5,000 cavalry all the way to the east, and just after walking a few miles, he caught up with the fleeing Jiannu people.

Zhu Kezhen didn't say a word, and led the troops up to slash and kill.

As long as it is braided, kill all of them, and leave not a single one.

In this way, Zhu Kezhen led the cavalry all the way to the east.

And Huang Taiji, who had already passed the Fushun Pass, began to worry. Hauge was reluctant to do so. However, Sakhalian, the son of Daishan, also volunteered to stay, and he couldn't say anything more.

The team passed the Fushun Pass, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

While urging the soldiers to continue their march along the Suzi River towards Hetuala, they found Daishan and Mang Gurtai and discussed sending troops to meet Hauge and others.

Dai Shan is naturally full of promises.

In the end, Huang Taiji sent his invincible warriors.

Bow down!
