I, Jiajing, join the Ming Emperor chat group

Chapter 34 It is gratifying to be captured alive, and all five punishments will be imposed!
Small Compass Town, above the temporary city wall.

Looking at the chaotic battlefield, Zhu Houcong was also a little surprised.

He had high expectations for the fighting power of the Shang Kexi Department of the Qing Army, and thought it would be a very difficult battle, but after he heard a burst of gunfire in Xiaoluopan Town, the shouts of fighting completely disappeared, leaving only people crying "our army is defeated".

The Qing army was defeated like a mountain.

Under the wisps of dust and smoke, even the artillery accompanying the army did not fire, and the battle was won so easily.

What followed was a group of [-] cavalry that had originally been hiding around the town and planned to rush out when the battle was raging. They could only disperse and go all over the mountains and plains to capture prisoners and kill the Qing army who wanted to resist.

It's still gratifying, is that all?
Zhu Houcong shook his head, feeling that he had overestimated the fighting power of the Qing army.

The fighting power of the Qing army mainly revolved around the Eight Banners. The Eight Banners were able to fight because they were of the same kinship as the Manchus and the country. They were equivalent to the clan and nobles of the Ming.

Therefore, their number is not much compared to the Ming army with hundreds of thousands, less than [-].

Moreover, each Eight Banners disciple is equipped with a sufficient number of coated servants. These coated servants charge forward and consume the energy of the enemy army. Under the roar of the artillery, the Eight Banners disciples are dispatched. In addition, the Ming army has been in arrears all the year round.

During the period at the end of Ming Dynasty, anyone who could cut down dozens of Jiannu's heads could be called a great victory.

Seeing that he won the victory so easily, Wu Xiang's old face was instantly like a blooming chrysanthemum, and he immediately complimented Zhu Houcong:

"Your Majesty, General Yu has won a great victory! General Yu really deserves to be a famous general of our dynasty, he even rode solo into battle, so brave, who in the world can defeat him? But all of this is all due to His Majesty's ingenious plan, and he will bury this slave in the midst of strategizing!"

And after hearing Wu Xiang's words, Zhu Houcong didn't want to talk to this person at all, and Wu Xiang was left out again, but he was not annoyed, he just bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, in the Guan Ning army of the rebellious son, there are many old ministers who used to be loyal to the rebel according to the old minister's wishes.

"But, if there is someone who can kill the slave builder anyway, I will not only pardon him, but also increase his rank and rank."

Zhu Houcong nodded when he heard the words, and said calmly: "But your rebellious son Wu Sangui is not included in it, Wu Sangui is an unforgivable thief!"

For the generals of the Guan Ning Army who were coerced by Wu Sangui, Zhu Houcong can make a difference. If he can really make things right and stab Dorgon severely from behind, then Zhu Houcong will not hesitate to add titles and rewards.

But for Wu Sangui, the No. [-] traitor in Tianzi, the crime is unforgivable!
"promise!"

Wu Xiang's expression was stern, and he was very resentful towards the second son in his heart, wishing that Zhu Houcong would be beheaded by him, so as not to embarrass the family.

Yes, the previous Wu Xiang still dreamed of being able to advance and retreat freely.

Today's Wu Xiang is already a pure and loyal minister of Ming Dynasty!
The main thing is one hand, Zhong!sincerity!
At this moment, Yu Dayou, whose battle armor was damaged and covered in blood, hurried over from outside the town with dozens of elite soldiers, but Yu Dayou personally escorted a man in his forties, with shaved money rattails and wearing a blue flag battle armor imitated by the frontier army of the Ming Dynasty.

The man was extremely embarrassed, his whole body was also covered with blood stains, a big cut was made on the breastplate, his entire arm was presented in an extremely distorted posture, and the entire arm was probably broken.

With a distance of about thirty or forty steps from Zhu Houcong, Yu Dayou immediately stopped, bowed down on one knee without hesitation, pushed the man beside him, broke his legs, made him kneel in front of Zhu Houcong, and said loudly: "The last general Yu Dayou pays homage to Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"I'm safe."

Zhu Houcong stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in Taoist robes floating like a fairy, and beside Yu Dayou, Shang Kexi, who was stunned by the broken legs, was horrified.

Because of his keen discovery.

The emperor in front of him is not Chongzhen at all!

In addition, he also heard that Yu Dayou reported his family name!
The general who captured him alive was actually called Yu Dayou!
Shang Kexi naturally knew what kind of person Yu Dayou was. He was a famous anti-Japanese general in the Jiajing Dynasty. He once learned from the monks in Shaolin Temple and learned from each other.
Could it be...

Shang Kexi's cheek was stuck firmly on the mud floor, and the small gravel made his face ache, and he was even bleeding from the grinding of the gravel, but Shang Kexi also guessed the identity of this young man.

The No.11 emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Jiajing!
The intelligence the regent received from Beijing earlier turned out to be true!

That Chongzhen child, unexpectedly... actually has the blessing of his ancestors!

All of a sudden, Shang Kexi's heart became clear.

It's no wonder that his army is vulnerable and collapses at the first touch.

Although on the one hand, it was because I underestimated the enemy and rushed forward, thinking that this time the Ming army would stick to the city as usual, and would not go out to fight in the field at all, so they hurriedly marched here and set up camp, waiting for the arrival of Prince Ying and the banner owner.

However, this group of soldiers and horses who were fighting with him lined up neatly, even if he took every step of the way, he might be easily defeated!
"The final general depends entirely on His Majesty's merits. It is gratifying to be lucky enough to capture the thief alive. Our army has beheaded countless people and captured countless prisoners. The cavalry of the Shunming Battalion are chasing the defeated soldiers, and there will be battle reports in a few days."

While speaking sonorously, Yu Dayou grabbed the ugly mouse-like braid behind Shang Kexi's head, forcibly pulled Shang Kexi's head up, and said to Zhu Houcong murderously, "Your Majesty, what should we do with this thief?"

"All five punishments!"

Zhu Houcong ordered without hesitation.

Historically, Shang Kexi went south to attack Guangdong, defeated the Ming army in Nanxiong, and then slaughtered the city.Captured Shaozhou and massacred the city again.Shang Kexi traveled day and night and went straight to Guangzhou.

And Yingde, Qingyuan, Conghua and other places fell one after another.

After the fall of Guangzhou, Shang Kexi went on a killing spree, no matter men, women, old or young, he killed anyone he saw. More than 20 people were massacred in Guangzhou, and in the whole of Guangdong, the number of people who died under Shang Kexi's butcher knife exceeded 70!

With a radius of forty miles around Guangzhou, there are only seven people left!
If Zu Dashou was a general who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty like Zu Dashou, Zhu Houcong would only make him hang himself, and would not pursue too much.

And Shang Kexi, Wu Sangui, Hong Chengchou, etc., will all be sentenced to death!
It's a pity that Su Yangzhi, a gratifying general in history, died under the volley of flintlock guns during the second round of the Qing army's charge, which is cheap for such a beast!
The so-called five punishments refer to cutting hands, gouging out eyes, cutting off ears and noses, and then digging out the patella... To put it simply, it is a simplified version of the human pig, beheading after completing the above operations.

Hearing Zhu Houcong's words, Lu Bing on the side hadn't ordered Jin Yiwei to carry out the order, and then Shang Kexi yelled: "Your Majesty, spare your life! My king... no, no, the guilty minister has information. The guilty minister knows the military strategy of the regent's going south. Your majesty! The guilty minister is willing to take the crime and make meritorious service. I am willing to lead my troops to rebel against you. I am willing to persuade your majesty to surrender the others..."

"Lu Bing, pull him down and torture him about the intelligence and military deployment of the Qing Dynasty going south. After the torture, he will be sentenced to five sentences!"

Zhu Houcong shook his head without showing any mercy.

Jin Yiwei's prison, still need to bargain with you?Just right, before the five punishments, let you try castration, needle insertion and the like.

Although it is not in Beijing, any place with Jin Yiwei can be a prison everywhere!
　"Guangzhou City Chronicles-Religious Chronicles": In the seventh year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army attacked Guangzhou and killed 70 people. In the eastern suburb of Wulonggang, the monk Zhenxiu hired people to collect the corpses, gathered them, buried the ashes, and buried them together.

　　70 is a lot of money.
