Chapter 633 The Examination Room Is Like a Battlefield

The Ming army will not show any mercy. After receiving Xiao Ruxun's order to kill, they don't have any psychological burden. When they see the northern captives, they just go up with a knife, regardless of men, women, old or young, and even some people who can't tell the difference between east, west, and north. All Han captives would die tragically under the horseshoe, let alone those northern captives.

The clothes between them are still very easy to distinguish. Most Ming soldiers are still a bit scrupulous. When they see the Han people, let them get out of the way and hide. Roll as far as possible. , trampled to death or simply dismounted and fought to kill.

The resistance of the northern captives was very limited, basically limited to a few large tent groups. When they encountered an attack from the Ming army, they could gather hundreds of cavalry to fight back. This gave the Ming army a good opportunity. Guidance—Can you fight back at this time?There must be big fish here!
As a result, as long as more and more Ming army cavalry found someone resisting, they firmly believed that there were big men from the northern captives there, and joined the ranks of encircling and suppressing the onslaught.

The contrast between the red-eyed Ming army cavalry and the slain northern captives was quite stark. Their resistance was very weak. Basically, they were defeated and fled in a short time. Naturally, the fish cannot be kept.

Li Rusong personally led the team to catch a big fat fish that was very richly dressed, kicked it up, and what this guy vomited was not blood, but the meat and food that he had just eaten. Li Rusong knew this by looking at his fat-headed appearance. Definitely a big fish.

He immediately ordered his subordinates to catch him and protect him, so that he could not be killed easily.

This fat-headed "big fish" didn't realize the fact that he was captured until he was led away by Li Rusong's cavalry on horseback. He resisted fiercely, but what greeted him was a merciless blow. It was broken, there was a red patch in front of my eyes, the whole person was in a mess, and I lost the ability to resist.

This kind of situation kept happening in this circular camp, and the whole camp turned into a killing field, which made Xu Guangqi, who was using binoculars to check the situation with Xiao Ruxun, tremble all over.

This was the first time he had directly observed a war.

"How, Mr. Xu, do you understand what war is?"

Xiao Ruxun put down the binoculars and looked at Xu Guangqi.

Xu Guangqi also put down the binoculars, and looked at Xiao Ruxun with a complicated expression.

Logically speaking, the Governor Xiao Ruxun in front of him is several years younger than himself, but he looks extremely mature and reliable, like an old man who has experienced many vicissitudes.

I don't know if the war made people mature, Xu Guangqi always felt that a man in his 30s had no advantage standing in front of him, as if he had returned to the way he was when he was studying in a private school.

It can only be said that three people must have my teacher, and it can only be said that Wen Dao has a sequence of skills and a specialization, so that Xu Guangqi's restless heart can be calmed a little.

What Xu Guangqi has seen and heard in Datong in the past few days has completely exceeded the scope of life experience accumulated by Xu Guangqi over the past 30 years. If he is asked to do a test paper related to this aspect, he may not even pass the boy's test.

Some people always say that the examination room is like a battlefield, but at least there will not be such casualties in the examination room, there will be no rivers of blood and mountains of corpses, and there will be no such cruel killings.

"Governor, is such a killing too much?"

Xu Guangqi swallowed, and asked tentatively.

"No, this is war. All wars are like this. This is not a problem that can be solved by sage books. It can only be solved by the sword in our hands. Otherwise, there will be only the destruction of the country and the destruction of the species. The northern prisoner will not talk to you about etiquette, shame, benevolence, justice and morality. .”

Xu Guangqi had nothing to say.

"Mr. Xu, if you can't accept it, you can leave, and I'll send someone to take you away."

Xiao Ruxun talked about such a thing again, which made Xu Guangqi hesitate for a while.

Still he shook his head.

"I won't leave, Governor, I will definitely experience all of this battle myself!"

Xiao Ruxun smiled.

"Personal experience? That's a bit difficult. You have to personally go into battle with a sword to kill. Only after killing the enemy can you say that you have experienced it yourself. Just observe it, if you write something to your friends in the future, it may be useful."

"Governor Xiao thinks that his subordinates won't hurt Governor Xiao if they go to the battlefield?"

Xu Guangqi is still very clear about himself.

"Hahahaha, Mr. Xu, you are a brave literati, but like all fledgling literati, you think everything too idealistically, thinking that as long as you persevere, you will be able to achieve your goals, but, Xu Sir, even if you work hard on many things, you will not get results, so it is doomed to be useless."

Xu Guangqi remained silent.

"I have a Jinshi assistant officer in Myanmar called Yuan Huang, you should know him."

"Yuan Huanggong?"

Xiao Ruxun nodded: "Yes, Yuan Gong is a Jinshi, but he gave up his official position and came to Myanmar to help me govern Myanmar, appease the refugees, hold Myanmar in my hands, and develop it into a new territory of our Ming Dynasty. He is My indispensable and important helper, if you have the opportunity, if you want, you can go to Burma to meet Yuan Gong, compared with me, Yuan Gong can give you a little more explanation."

"Is that so..."

Xu Guangqi fell into deep thought.

"By the way, Mr. Xu, aren't you very interested in firearms? Would you like to see how my musketeers fight?"

Xiao Ruxun suddenly thought of this problem, and sure enough, Xu Guangqi forgot all his troubles in an instant and looked excited.

"That's great! My subordinates have always wanted to see how the general who is the best at using firearms in Ming Dynasty used firearms! I heard that the general mobilized hundreds of artillery pieces to bombard the Japanese pirates when he went to North Korea, blowing up all the Japanese pirates. Heaven!"

"Hahaha, it's not that exaggerated, it's just that there are not so many artillery pieces to bully Japanese pirates, let's go! Let's go and have a look!"

Xu Guangqi nodded excitedly, followed Xiao Ruxun around the war zone on horseback, and headed towards the north of Datong City.

Xiao Ruxun ordered Wang Hui to take the Zhennan Army to the north and north of Datong City to line up on the road that must be passed by for retreat after firing the cannon, and waited for it.

But at this moment, Datong City did not disappoint Xiao Ruxun. Xiao Ruxun knew that if Datong still had the power to fight again, he would definitely open the city gates to cooperate with the army to fight.

Sure enough, when the battle was in full swing, the gates of the city opened, and a Ming army rushed out, and joined forces with the Ming army outside the city to kill all directions, and finally defeated the encirclement of the northern captives outside the city, severely killing the northern captives.

Under such a violent joint strangulation, even though the northern captive soldiers could continue to fight, their old and weak women and children could not. In the chaos, the survival rate of the old and weak women and children was extremely low. fled to the north.

But they didn't know that Wang Hui had already led troops here to stand ready.
