Chapter 80: Torture (Ask for Collection)
Without any accidents, dozens of pro-soldiers who wanted to avenge Zhang Nai's body were wiped out by Zhao Heng, Sun Qi and others before they rushed in front of Feng Yuan.
"Finally won!"
Zhu Yujiao used her sword to crutch the ground, gasping rapidly, her pretty face was full of sweat, she had just killed more than a dozen Shun soldiers in a row, consuming most of her physical strength.
Seeing the scene of blood all over the ground and corpses in front of her, accompanied by a bloody gas, she couldn't bear it anymore and turned her head and vomited.
He Tieshou's face was a little unsightly, in this ambush, the members of her Five Poison Sect suffered twenty or thirty casualties, and suffered a lot of losses. It really made her a little unhappy.
"Clean up the battlefield, collect all the horses, and hurry up to catch up with the convoy!"
Feng Yuan noticed He Tieshou's face, but he didn't say anything to comfort him.
Since the Five Poisons Sect wants to become the overlord of the southwest rivers and lakes, and even hold certain rights, it must pay something.
No one can get something for nothing.
Zhao Heng, Sun Qi and others received the order and began to lead people to clean up the battlefield.
In the darkness of the night.
The wind was whistling, and Huang Zhen used his body to run for about a stick of incense, and then he caught up with Hu Tian, and after catching up, he was taken aback.
I saw Hu Tian's expression was stunned, his face was as pale as paper, his chest was stained with blood, leaning on the trunk of a big tree, if it weren't for the breath, it would be almost no different from a dead man.
"Guard Hu, how are you?"
Huang Zhen hurriedly took out the healing medicine from his arms and prepared to bandage Hu Tian's wound, but when he got close and saw Hu Tian's wound, he couldn't help but take a breath.
Hu Tian's chest was almost split in half with a knife, and he could clearly see the viscera.
This injury, that is, Hu Tian's strength is profound, and he can lock the qi and blood around the wound, if the person with a lower martial arts skill would have been killed with a knife.
"I can't die yet, but after being stabbed by this knife, I lost most of my life, and before the injury is healed, I'm afraid I won't be able to use force anymore!"
Hu Tian's lips moved slightly, he reluctantly said a word, took the wound medicine, and bandaged the wound himself.
"This Zhu Lunsheng's martial arts are so good! It can almost be compared to his teacher. If we want to take him down, we can't do it alone, we have to let the other three guards join forces to have some chance of winning!"
Huang Zhen sighed.
A wry smile appeared on Hu Tian's face.
Others only know that there are four guards around King Chuang, and their martial arts are superb, and since the four guards are all famous, there should be no big gap in martial arts.
But in fact, among the four guards, Hu Tian's martial arts steadily overpowered the other three. The other three of them are not Hu Tian's opponents.
With the martial arts shown by that person just now, their four major guards joined forces, and the chances of winning were also very slim.
The two of them had their own thoughts, and were silent for a moment.
Huang Zhen suddenly got up and looked into the distance, frowning slightly, "Why hasn't General Zhang withdrawn yet?"
Hu Tian also frowned, Zhang Nai was King Chuang's henchman, if something happened, the two of them would not be able to explain when they went back.
The more worried you are, the more likely it will happen.
In a few moments, some of the soldiers who had scattered and escaped passed by.
Huang Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about the situation, and the result of the question made him speechless for a long time.
Zhang Nai is actually dead!
"This is over, Chongzhen fled to Jiangnan, and he will definitely reorganize his soldiers and horses......"
Hu Tian gasped twice, his face was ugly.
When King Chuang and Sun Chuanting were fighting, they were under great pressure, if it weren't for the Ming army's eagerness to fight, coupled with the heavy rain from the sky, the supply of grain and grass could not be supplied, and the Ming army would not necessarily be defeated.
In case there is another Sun Chuanting in Jiangnan, it will not be so easy for Dashun to conquer the south.
However, these are all things that King Chuang will have to worry about in the future.
Now the most important thing for them is to gather the rout and get the news back as soon as possible.
......
The news that the capital was breached by the Shun army is spreading in the northern land at a very fast speed. Many officials who were interested in the Ming Dynasty were either martyred or fled south.
However, there are still most civil officials, who directly changed their doors and hung up the dragon flag of Dashun.
Fortunately for those officials loyal to the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen broke through with his soldiers and horses when the city of Beijing was broken. It doesn't seem to have fallen into the hands of thieves.
The sign of the demise of a dynasty in the history books is that the kingdom has been conquered and the king has been killed.
In the original timeline, the Ming Jingshi was breached, and after Chongzhen was martyred, the Ming Dynasty was officially destroyed in the history books, and the Mandate of Heaven artifact was also transferred to the Manchu Qing who entered the capital.
The small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty in the back did not have much status in the history books at all.
And the current situation is that the emperor did not die, but also broke through from the capital and ran out. In the hearts of the people of the world, the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty is still there. The national fortune can continue.
It's just that after the emperor left the capital, there was no news, which made many officials worried.
It wasn't until a few days later that Lu Zhenfei of Huai'an Mansion received news that Emperor Chongzhen had arrived in Shandong, and it would not be long before he could come to Huai'an Mansion.
Of course, when he heard the news, he also knew that Zhu Lunsheng was canonized as the king of Zhou, opened the palace and built teeth, and commanded the two Huai soldiers and horses to defend Jinling.
Lu Zhenfei had mixed feelings in his heart, not long ago, there was a traitor who was suspected of robbing Caoyin, and he actually became a vassal king with military power in a blink of an eye. This turn is too big, and ordinary people will really be a little unacceptable for a while.
At the same time that Lu Zhenfei received the news, Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang, also received the news from Huai'an, and immediately took the soldiers and horses of his headquarters to prepare to go to Huai'an Mansion to meet him.
After bringing Chongzhen to Huai'an Mansion, Feng Yuan was also relieved.
With Li Banghua, Ni Yuanlu, Ma Shiying, and Lu Zhenfei, who are not weak ministers, suppressed, those Donglin Party in Jinling will not be able to make any waves in a short period of time.
At this time, Hong Shenghai's eyeliner left in the Jingshi also kept coming from various news.
On the second day after the Shun army entered the capital, they began to break into the doors, burn, kill, loot, and humiliate women.
Before attacking the capital, the Shun army had been breathing a sigh of relief in his heart, which was the spirit of overthrowing the imperial court and establishing Dashun.
Under the effect of this spirit, both Li Zicheng and the ordinary soldiers of the Shun army can work together. Able to maintain good military discipline.
But after entering the capital, this spirit dissipated unconsciously.
Even Li Zicheng is a little complacent.
Whether it is a general of the Shun army or an ordinary soldier, they all began to think about their own future. is full of expectations that Li Zicheng can reward the three armies.
But after the Shun army opened the treasury of the Ming Dynasty, he found that there were only tens of thousands of taels of silver left in the treasury.
The reward could not be issued, the morale of the army was a little unstable, and many Shun soldiers began to restore their true character as thieves.
In order to maintain the morale of the army, Li Zicheng asked Liu Zongmin to set up a torture battalion, arrested all the officials and nobles in the capital, and plundered gold and silver one by one according to their official positions......
Among them, the one with the biggest bleeding is Jiading Bo Zhou Kui.
