Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 114 Tartars Raid Gyeonggi

Chapter 114 Tartars Raid Gyeonggi

Several days of bloody battles caused a lot of losses to the defenders of Jizhou City, especially the elite servants raised by Lu Xiangsheng and Huang Degong themselves.

But it was precisely because Lu Xiangsheng led these servants to fight directly with the Tartars, defeating the Tartars' advance, which made the Tartars full of resentment and chased all the way to the city of Jizhou.

Lu Xiangsheng is also very satisfied with this. In his opinion, all he needs to do is to hold back the Tartars in Jizhou City for the next few days. As long as the delay lasts longer, His Majesty will have more time to mobilize soldiers from all over the world to fight the Tartars. .

However, seeing that noon was approaching, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help asking the soldiers behind him: "It's already this time, why haven't you heard the sound of the Tartars attacking the city?"

Just as he was asking, Lu Xiangsheng suddenly noticed something, stood up hurriedly, but accidentally tore the wound, and grinned in pain: "Damn Tartar, this arrow almost killed me."

At this time, Huang Degong hurried in: "No, Lu Shilang, all the Tartars gathered outside the city suddenly disappeared overnight, and they didn't even want the people and property they plundered."

"what!"

Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help roaring, and suddenly the pain hit again.

Immediately, Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly walked towards the entrance of the city again, but he saw that there were no traces of the Tartars outside the city, and the Tartars walked in such a hurry that they didn't even bury the stove pit for living, and there was still green smoke, but It is also because of this that the Ming army patrolling outside the city mistakenly thought that the Tartars were still lighting a fire last night, and because of this, they were all wary of whether the Tartars made breakfast so early because they wanted to launch an attack at dawn. The Ming army did not dare to be careless overnight.

But what people didn't expect was that all the Tartars withdrew overnight, which made many officers and soldiers heave a sigh of relief.

According to the Ming practice, as long as the Tartars withdraw, it is considered a victory if they do not capture the city, but Lu Xiangsheng, who aims to hold the Tartars in Jizhou City for three months, is not at all happy at this time.

"The Tartars just left without making a sound?"

"Yeah, you bombarded the city gates yesterday, and you're going to attack the city even if you lose half of your bull. It's obvious that you were enraged by the battle outside your city and want to give it to us." Look at the color, otherwise you wouldn't have shot this letter of persuasion, which is half a threat and half a consolation, saying that if you don't dedicate the city, he will slaughter the entire population of Jizhou today, why is there no one left today?"

After Huang Degong said doubtfully, Lu Xiangsheng just remained silent, but after a long time, he punched the battlement with his fist:
"Lu underestimated Huang Taiji. Although we took the initiative to attack and angered him, it also made him realize our determination to defend the city. I'm afraid he also knows our strategic intentions. Your Majesty said that when the Tartars enter the customs, it is often the case. The purpose is not to destroy my Ming Dynasty, they don't have that much appetite now, they are just fighting for survival, intending to rob my Ming Dynasty of food and population.

"The best result is that through repeated plundering and encroachment, the basic agriculture of our Ming Dynasty will be destroyed, which will trigger a refugee rebellion, let our Ming Dynasty perish directly, and then they will reap the benefits!"

Hearing Lu Xiangsheng's words, Huang Degong asked suspiciously, "I would like to ask Lu Shilang to explain clearly, what is the purpose of this tartar's sudden withdrawal?"

"If I were Huang Taiji, I would immediately jump out of the trap after realizing that I might have slipped into it, and I would no longer insist on attacking the capital, waiting to be surrounded by the Qin King's divisions from all over the Ming Dynasty, but would first use my mobility to plunder everywhere. , and look for an opportunity to eat all the troops of the Ming Dynasty, and then look for an opportunity to leave the customs, this will not only hurt Daming's vitality, but also gain a lot of food and population."

After Lu Xiangsheng said this, he immediately ordered: "Immediately send people to the capital to report to Your Majesty, the main force of the Tartars seems to have changed their strategic intentions, besieged Jizhou City for several days and suddenly withdrew, and at the same time strictly ordered the officials on duty at all gates of Jizhou to close the city gates , don’t let the Tartars take advantage of the loopholes, and don’t leave the city without the official order! Don’t abandon the city and flee, and those who disobey the order will be beheaded!”

Huang Degong hurriedly sent Lu Xiangsheng's order to go, and asked at the same time: "Now, what should we do?"

"You stay in Jizhou. The Tartars are now fighting guerrilla warfare. No one knows where they will attack in the next moment. However, the three most important strongholds must be protected from being breached by the Tartars. These three strongholds are where our Daming granaries are concentrated. If there is a slight mistake, one is Jizhou City, the other is the capital, and the other is Tongzhou. Jizhou has you, but Tongzhou is in the south. I am afraid that the defense will be empty. I have to lead an elite army to Tongzhou immediately."

After Lu Xiangsheng said that, he immediately ordered the horses to be prepared, while Huang Degong bowed to him without saying anything.

……

Yutian is under the jurisdiction of Shuntian Prefecture and is an important market town near Gyeonggi. However, due to its location to the south, the county magistrate here did not take the news of the Tatars coming from the south seriously.

Caravans from the south still entered the city in an endless stream, and the people in the city were still buying or selling, and even the county magistrate was still sitting in the Qinlou Chu Pavilion.

The soldiers of the city defense also sat lazily on the edge of the city and dozed off.

However, in such a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, suddenly there was a rush of horseshoes ahead.

Several vigilant soldiers had just woken up and before they could see clearly, their necks were broken with sickle hooks by a few tartars who came first.

At the same time, a group of Tartars rushed over screaming. They were very fast. Before the dust they raised had landed, they entered the city directly and chopped down anyone they saw.

Huang Taiji and other leaders of the Eight Banners also rushed over: "Immediately occupy the county government, except for men and women, all the children and old people will be killed! All the food will be taken away, and all the houses that cannot be taken away will be burned down."

"Yes!"

Several Eight Banners soldiers who passed the order quickly ran towards the alleys in response.

At this time, Dorgon on the side couldn't help but smiled at Huang Taiji: "Zhu Youxiao himself hid in the capital and wanted to strategize and gather heavy troops to eat us. , even with the bravery of our Eight Banners, he cannot stop it."

"Don't underestimate this person, Zu Dashou and Liu Fangming can be quickly eradicated by him, so that he doesn't have to be distracted to deal with the three forces now, and this Khan has already made him think highly of him." Huang Taiji suddenly shot an arrow He shot a Han commoner who was running around under the soldiers of the Eight Banners: "We can't give Daming a chance to breathe, otherwise, as long as this person becomes emperor, I will not be able to enter the pass for a day!"

Yutian City was slaughtered for half a day, until sunset, when the blood stained the Western Mountains, Huang Taiji and others destroyed the city and plundered thousands of people and a lot of property and came towards Fengrun.

When the magistrate of Fengrun County heard that the Tartars were approaching, he was so frightened that he immediately fled to Tianjin with his family. Therefore, Fengrun County collapsed without attack, and the people in the city also suffered miserably.

Hou Shilu, the Shandong commander-in-chief of King Qin who was expected to rush to Fengrun County, was so frightened that he immediately turned around and ran back to Jinan.

At the same time, the Amin Department of the Eight Banners also gave up attacking Yongping City, and disappeared suddenly, but came to Tongzhou City a few days later.
