Chapter 242: Jiangxi Pacification
The soldiers who beheaded Liu Fangzhou had no idea that Liu Fangming would actually raise a butcher's knife against them, so they were slaughtered by Liu Fangming's own soldiers in an unsuspecting situation.
After giving the order to kill them, Liu Fangming did not put his superfluous emotions on the head of his dead brother, because he immediately realized another problem, Liu Fangzhou was in the way, and if the Ming army was treacherous because of this, then he would not be finished.
Therefore, Liu Fangming didn't care about his grief, and hurriedly sent all his cronies out to find the Ming army to explain what happened tonight.
At the same time, he also rushed directly to the Ningxia army, which was closest to here, and wanted to take over the command and re-command the battle against Xia Yiyi's troops.
After they walked out of a few streets, they encountered a defeated Ningxia army, which happened to be the army that was forced to retreat by Xia Yiyi's front and back, and the guerrillas led by Liu Fangming reported Xia Yiyi's movements.
The two sides immediately joined forces, and while gathering nearby friendly troops, they rushed to the martial arts arena.
But when they arrived at the martial arts arena, they found that it was already empty, and some soldiers who were left behind because they were injured and could not follow the evacuation were quickly found. Error-free updates @
Hearing that Xia Yihe actually abandoned the city and fled north, Liu Fang's name was furious, and what he hated most in his heart now was Xia Yiju, and he couldn't wait to arrest him and break his body into thousands of pieces, so as to alleviate the hatred in his heart.
However, reason still prevailed, and Liu Fangming forcibly suppressed the impulse to pursue and kill, and commanded the soldiers and horses in the city to continue to encircle and suppress the soldiers and horses of Xia Yiyu in the city, and liaise with the Ming army.
On the other side, the Ming army, which continued to advance into the city, soon encountered the Ningxia army in the fierce battle, and the Ningxia army in the city received orders to cooperate with the Ming army to occupy the city, so they did not resist after seeing the Ming army enter the city, but after greeting the other party, they took the initiative to cooperate with the Ming army to continue to advance.
As more and more Ming troops entered the city, the Qing army in the city, who obeyed Xia Yiyu's orders, could not resist for long, and were defeated by the offensive of both sides, either surrendering to the Ming army, or simply taking off their armor and fleeing into residential areas as deserters.
Most of these Qing troops were recruited directly from the city, so they took off their armor and turned into deserters and fled home as if nothing had happened.
For these deserters, the Ming army, which gradually controlled the whole city, did not spare the energy to arrest them, and after clearing the last resistance force in the city, the Ming army entered the city in a big way, and Su Yan also entered the city surrounded by a group of officials from the Ministry of War.
Liu Fangming knew that his status as a subordinate general was inferior, and he almost had a bad thing tonight, so he took the initiative to take his subordinates to meet Su Yan.
As soon as he saw Su Yan, Liu Fangming knelt directly on the ground, and shouted in his mouth: "Liu Fangming, the criminal general, visit His Royal Highness the King of Nan'an County, Liu Fangzhou, the brother of the criminal general, betrayed the plan, and almost made a mistake, this is the responsibility of the criminal general, and please punish His Royal Highness the King of the County!" ”
"It doesn't matter." In order to appease the hearts of the Ningxia army, Su Yan personally dismounted, supported Liu Fangming, and was relieved: "General Liu can judge the situation and abandon the darkness and turn to the light in time, which is extremely rare, how can this king punish Liu Zongbing because of this variable?"
Liu Zongbing only continued to lead the troops, and the puppet Qing Dynasty still occupied half of the country, and this king still needs Liu Zongbing and his soldiers to fight bravely to kill the enemy. ”
"Your Highness is benevolent, and there will be no retribution for your sins, and I am willing to serve Your Highness." Liu Fangming let Su Yan help him up, and continued to speak.
No matter what he thinks in his heart, he has to do enough to save face, but who knows that the system that Su Yan has will have an impact on him as long as he verbally expresses his submission......
Therefore, Liu Fangming is destined to become a loyal dog of Su Yan from today onwards.
After verbal allegiance, Liu Fangming remembered Xia Yiju, who fled north, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, Xia Yiju, the puppet governor of Jiangxi, led the army to flee north from Deshengmen, and the last general is willing to count the soldiers and horses to go in pursuit. ”
Su Yan shook his head, and said in Liu Fang's incomprehensible gaze: "This king has already set up soldiers and horses to intercept the road north of Deshengmen in advance, and now Xia Yiyu should have fought with the soldiers and horses responsible for interception." ”
Su Yan was right, at the same time, Xia Yiju, who intended to flee north to Jiujiang Mansion, was stopped on the road, and was ordered by Su Yan to bypass the Fucheng in advance to intercept here.
Cao Dahao, dressed in battle armor and holding a spear in his hand, pointed at Xia Yiyu and shouted:
"It's Xia Yiyu? Erbei's escape has been cut off by our army, so don't get off your horse and surrender quickly, so as not to lose your life in vain! ”
"Don't think!"
Xia Yiyu replied loudly, and then turned around, intending to lead his subordinates to retreat, but before they could retreat, another team was killed from one side, this team was under the banner of "The Book of the Military Department, the Governor of the Imperial History of the Right Capital, Jiangxi Jie", and the leader was not who was Jiezhongxi.
That Jiezhong Xi led the army to kill, cutting off Xia Yiju's intention to withdraw, and on the other side, another soldier and horse were killed, Fu Dingquan held a longbow in his hand, raised his bow and shot an arrow at Xia Yiju, fortunately, the Fubiao staff general next to Xia Yiju swung his knife to cut off the arrow in time, so as to avoid dying on the spot. _o_m
Attacked on three sides, Xia Yiyu and his subordinates fell directly into the siege, he knew that there was no hope of breaking through, sighed, and said to General Fubiao: "The general trend of the imperial court has gone, so wait for you to surrender to the Ming army." ”
After that, Xia Yiju drew his knife and killed himself, and the general hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, but he was still a little slower, Xia Yiju had already wiped off his neck, blood gushed out from the fracture, and the whole person fell straight to his death.
After Xia Yiyu killed himself, General Fubiao was sad in his heart, but he still obeyed his instructions before he died, and ordered someone to collect the governor's body and surrender to the Ming army.
When Xia Yiyu's body was escorted back to Nanchang City by Cao Dahao, Su Yan did not listen to Liu Fangming's request to hand over the body to him for disposal, but ordered someone to bury his body alive and retain his due dignity.
Subsequently, Su Yan ordered people to gather the officials in Nanchang City overnight, let them post notices to the people everywhere in the city, and sent soldiers to arrest those who took advantage of the chaos to commit crimes and fish in troubled waters, so as to stabilize the order of the city as soon as possible.
While restoring order in the city, Su Yan also ordered the scholar Guan Heiqiu to write a letter and send it to Nankang, Jiujiang and the rest of the prefectures and counties that were still under the control of the Qing court, asking them to give up resistance and return to the Ming court.
All parts of Jiangxi have long had the idea of surrendering because of the fierce offensive of the Ming army, and now that the city of Nanchang has fallen and the governor himself has been killed, there is naturally no need for the cities to continue to resist.
Therefore, in addition to the areas where there is still more military strength of the Qing army in the land of Southern Jiangxi, the basic spread in Jiangxi is determined, and the people everywhere happily cut off the ugly braids on their heads, take off their ugly clothes, put on traditional Han robes, and regrow their hair.
