Chapter 136: Is the Ming Army Really Coming?
"This dog officer, where did you get the courage!"
Zhao Jin said "phew" loyally, it is a good thing to be an official with integrity, but he can be so dignified as a dog for a tartar, and he is like a loyal minister and a filial son, and he makes people look at it.
I hate that I don't have the ability to fly into the city, otherwise I will let the surnamed Lu taste the sword of the Ming soldiers.
"That's the trend."
Wang Wu shook his head and snorted coldly in his heart.
Lu Heng, the prefect of Yichang, like Yang Maoxun, the captured governor of Huguang, belonged to the belief that the Manchu Qing Dynasty had determined the world, so he only wanted to be loyal to the new dynasty and not miss the slightest kindness of the old dynasty.
As for the distinction between Huayi, it is not my race's statement, and it has no influence on them.
As long as there is an official to do, it is fine.
There are countless such officials.
Only when the general trend rises can those who fall like clouds.
For example, after Wu Sangui raised his troops, whether it was the generals of the green battalion or the officials of various prefectures and prefectures, they were really competing to cut their braids first.
The reason is that these officials all think that Wu Sangui will win the world, so they give it a go, looking forward to going further in the new Wu dynasty and seeking benefits for themselves and their families.
And what kind of onion is he Wang Wu?
Now even Wu Sangui's hair can't be compared, don't say the world, even in this Huguang, there are a few people who know him.
However, it won't be long before his five great names will surely spread far and wide and spread all over the country.
The battle of Huanglong Mountain was enough to shake the world.
It is also enough to make Wang Yaowu's three words like a meteor across the dark sky, bringing a touch of light and a hope to the already bloody land of China.
"Come here."
Wang Wu raised his hand and motioned for the Qian Daotai, who was afraid of death, to come forward and speak.
"General!"
Qian Daotai was a little panicked after coming over, he was afraid that the Ming army would send him into the city as a messenger to persuade him to surrender.
Regarding the posture of Lu Heng, the prefect of Yichang, he definitely hung his head on the head of the city to show his loyalty to the Qing court.
Fortunately, Wang Wu didn't plan to let the useful Qian Daotai sacrifice like this, and only ordered him to shout under the city.
That is, the city gate can not be opened, but the city needs to provide the Ming army with 10,000 people to eat food for three days, salt, vegetable oil, pig and mutton, and 10,000 catties of beans for war horses to chew, and 10,000 taels of silver.
At present, there are a lot of war horses in the army, and there are hundreds of mules and hundreds of carriages in Guizhou, which can be pulled away.
"Okay, the lower official is going to shout!"
As long as he is not allowed to enter the city to persuade him to surrender, it is easy to say anything, Qian Daotai hurriedly set off to the city, and as soon as he turned around, he stopped and turned back and asked: "General, what if the city refuses to agree?" ”
Wang Wu waved his hand without thinking about it: "If you don't want to, I will cut five tartars every half a pillar of incense." ”
Not surprisingly, the demands of the Ming army were not accepted by the city.
Zhao Jinzhong, Xu Lin, Xu Deyi, Zhang Tianfang and others were furious and asked Wang Wu to storm Yichang City, capture the prefect alive and break his body into thousands of pieces.
There are not many defenders in Yichang City, more than 2,000 people.
Only in the city, but can mobilize several times the Qing army to help defend the city, the Ming army does not say that there is no artillery, not even ladders, shield cars, how to attack?
It's not impossible to cut and make a system, but it will take at least three days to gather enough siege weapons.
Three days later, it is estimated that Dong Xueli's pursuers also arrived.
Therefore, it was impossible for Wang Wu to order a strong attack, and he did not necessarily have to take Yichang City, after all, the Ming army could go around the city.
I just want Yichang City to provide grain and grass for him to continue to go east.
If he can't even meet this small request, then don't blame him for being angry with the Manchurians.
After the news of the city's refusal to agree came, Wang Wu was not verbose, turned over and dismounted and came to a group of high-ranking Manchurian prisoners.
The whip pointed to five of them.
Immediately, a group of personal soldiers rushed into the crowd and dragged the five Manchurian generals who were pointed to to the city.
The five people seemed to know what the Ming army was going to do, and their faces were all white and scary, struggling not to be dragged out, but where could they get their wish.
The rest of the Manchurian generals who were not pulled out were also all discolored, and many of them were as straight as beating drums.
Even the die-hard Yang Maoxun didn't dare to "hmm", but General Jingxi on the stretcher was very calm.
I don't know, I think this person is closing his eyes and recuperating.
Soon, the officials and battalion soldiers in Yichang City saw that the Ming army under the city had escorted the five Zhenman adults into their sight.
General Wang Jishu hesitated and looked at Lu Heng, the prefect on the side: "Lord Lu, they are the Eight Banners of Manchuria." ”
The implication is that the Ming army is not too much, so they still give it.
If you really want to let the Manchurian generals die under the city of Yichang, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain to the imperial court when you turn back.
"Don't pay attention to this thief's intimidation plan, even if the Manchurian soldiers die because of this, they will die a well-deserved death, and the glory of their death!"
Lu Heng was very determined, if it weren't for the fact that there were only more than 2,000 officers and soldiers defending the city, but the Ming army had thousands of foot cavalry, he would have ordered the officers and soldiers to go out of the city to attack the Ming army that ran out of the mountains.
Wang Jishu is the general of the third grade, but Lu Heng is the prefect of the fourth grade, and Wang Jishu is higher than Lu Heng in terms of grade, but the affairs of the city must obey Lu Heng's opinion.
Seeing that the prefect had a tough attitude, he couldn't say anything.
The thief finally caught a group of Manchurian generals, how could he easily cut down all the people under Yichang City.
I estimated that when I saw that there was no movement in the city, I retreated.
"Roll call!"
In charge of the execution was Zhang Pengyu, the flag of Wang Wu's personal army, and immediately his personal soldiers forcibly pressed the Manchurian generals who were dragged to the city to kneel on the ground.
"Inlaid with white flags, the world is in charge of Zuo Ling, Jue Luo Yongkai!"
"Zhenglan Banner Ginseng Leader Niu Hulu Lahada!"
"Inlaid with red flags and led by Jue Luo Sabihan!"
"Zhenghuang Banner Co-Leader Ma Jia Gong Bao!"
"Yellow Flag Co-Leader Guerjia Soltai!"
Hundreds of soldiers shouted in unison to the city.
Every name that was reported loudly made the hearts of the parties tremble, even if they were not afraid of death, they were all trembling at this time.
There was no movement in the city.
Zhang Pengyu looked back at the coach, but when he saw the horsewhip in the coach's right hand swinging down, he immediately shouted: "Chop!" ”
"Slash!"
Five broadswords fell in unison.
In the gushing of blood, five Manchurian heads rolled to the ground.
The corpses were dragged aside by the Ming army at random and piled up in one place.
The heads are placed in turn, neatly stacked.
Five Manchurian generals were killed by the Ming army on the spot in front of the Qing army in Yichang City, making the city silent.
"Dog thief!"
Yang Maoxun, the governor of Huguang, was very sad to see this scene, not wanting to see the Manchurian generals die so tragically, but also unwilling to accept the pressure of Lu Heng, the prefect of the city, to accept the request of the Ming army.
It's really contradictory.
Finally, the gaze of hatred swept over Mulima, who was pretending to be dead.
It is true that they will eat their flesh and drink their blood.
"Half a pillar of incense!"
Zhang Pengyu shouted into the city.
It means that if the city still does not agree, it will be another five Zhenman generals who will die in the city.
"Lord Lu?"
General Wang Jishu, whose face was very stiff, subconsciously looked at Lu Heng: The Ming army seems to be real?
