Chapter 317 Reporting Victory to the Lord

Chapter 317 Reporting Victory to the Lord

The sky had already darkened, and the entire city of Shengjing had basically calmed down.There were Jiang family army soldiers patrolling the streets and alleys with torches everywhere. Occasionally, there would be one or two yells and screams. It was the discovery of the defeated Qing army who was hiding.

All the gates of the city have been closed and heavily defended, and teams of soldiers on the city wall are patrolling back and forth with torches.

Except for the soldiers patrolling the streets, not a single civilian could be seen on the streets.

After Hu Zongxian entered the city, he announced a curfew for three consecutive days. Anyone caught during the curfew would be executed as a Tazi spies.

In fact, even if there was no curfew, with so many ferocious soldiers walking on the street, few of them would have the courage to run out in the middle of the night.

The fire on Dorgon's mansion has been extinguished.By the time it was completely extinguished, nearly half of the entire palace had been burned.

The soldiers dug out more than a dozen corpses from the ruins, all of which had been burnt to a scorched mass. No matter whether they were a powerful prince or a lowly slave with no status, they were all equal at this time. Can't tell who's who.

There is no DNA testing in this era, even if there is, Jiang Chuan has no intention of wasting it on a group of dead people, and they are enemies.

Hu Zongxian ordered a big pit to be dug in the pine forest outside the city, and each person was buried together in a thin coffin.If they were master and servant family members during their lifetime, they will just be their companions after death, regardless of high or low.

No tombstone was erected, but two pine seedlings were moved and planted in front of the grave, which was also a mark.

Jierhalang died, Daishan ran away with his men, but he ran very fast, and the pursuers chased for more than 100 miles but did not catch up.

The three Jiang family army camps outside the city are now full of prisoners.After a rough count, there are at least tens of thousands of people, and most of these captives are the original Han Eight Banners and Mongolian Eight Banners.

There were not many Manchurian soldiers, and most of them were killed.

Of the [-] troops of Jiang's army, [-] are still stationed outside the city, and [-] are stationed inside the city, so that they can respond to each other in case something happens, so as not to be passive.

In this way, it can be seen that Hu Zongxian's safety and solidity are coming, and he can see the leopard in the tube.

Now there are basically no established Qing soldiers inside or outside Shengjing City, and even the mansions of all princes and nobles have been blocked by Jiang's army.

Some of the owners of these mansions, like Daishan, ran fast when they saw the opportunity, and some of them were blocked at home before they could run.

Hu Zongxian didn't have the time to deal with these people yet, so he sent troops to keep them at home first.As long as they don't come out to make trouble, it's fine. If they dare to come out to make trouble, then they will have a good time.

His commander-in-chief Xingyuan was set up in the palace of Jierhalang, one of the deceased auxiliary kings of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

When he first entered the city, Ran Wu and Di Qing advised him to set up the Xingyuan in the palace, but Hu Zongxian refused.According to his reasoning, the palace is the place where the king lives, and he is just a courtier, how can he overstep, so he insisted on choosing the palace of Jierhalang.

Di Qing and Ran Wu admired him even more. They both felt that Hu Zongxian was a handsome talent valued by the lord after all.

At this time, Hu Zongxian was summoning Di Qing and Ran Wu to discuss how to clean up the aftermath.

"Hu Shuai, the most urgent thing is to send someone to report the victory to the lord. Shengjing has been broken, and the emperor and queen mother of the Manchu Qing have fallen into our hands. The Manchu Qing can already declare the country to be destroyed. Such a great victory shocked the world. From now on, the name of the lord will be known to all people in the world." Ran Wu said.

"General Ran Wu's words are very true. I have already written the victory report document. Let's see if there is anything wrong with it." Hu Zongxian said as he picked up a manuscript from the table and handed it to Ran Wu.

After reading it, Ran Wu handed it to Di Qing, and Di Qing exchanged it to Hu Zongxian after reading it, saying: "Hu Shuai will report it accordingly, and Di Qing has no objection."

Ran Wu also nodded and said: "The last general has no objections."

Hu Zongxian: "Since the two generals have no objections, then sign with me, and we will send people to report the victory to Guangning overnight. I believe that the lord is also waiting for our news."

Di Qing and Ran Wu nodded in agreement, and both picked up a pen to sign their names on the back of the manuscript.

Hu Zongxian also signed his name, put the manuscript into an envelope in front of the two of them, sealed the letter after baking it with a paint stick, and took out three feathers from a small box on the table and stuck them on the envelope. On the seal, after a careful inspection, it was correct before giving up.

Use three feathers to indicate that this is an urgent top-secret message of the highest level, which can only be received by Jiang Chuan himself.

Putting the sealed letter together, Hu Zongxian got up again and took out a brocade box from a cabinet behind him. It was the box containing the jade seal handed over by the Empress Dowager Bumubutai of the Qing Dynasty.

Hu Zongxian put the box on the table, then sat down and said: "I have seen it too, this must be the emperor's jade seal of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. This jade seal cannot be owned by a king. I want to send a capable person to share this jade seal with the good news Send them back to Guangning together, do you have any good candidates for the two generals to recommend?"

Ran Wudao: "The last general has a cavalry commander, Zhao Feng, who got this jade seal from the Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty. It's better to let him lead the troops to escort the jade seal and Jiebao back to Guangning."

Di Qing nodded and said he had no objection.

"Okay, let Zhao Feng lead someone to escort Yuxi and Jiebao back to Guangning." Hu Zongxian nodded.

Ran Wu got up and went out, ordered someone to call Zhao Feng, turned back and sat opposite Hu Zongxian and said, "Zhao Feng will be here soon. Shuai Hu, although Shengjing is broken now, there are still many evils left by the Qing Dynasty. In Shengjing There are still several cities in the north that are still in the hands of the Manchus. Moreover, there are still many remnants of the Manchus in the old city of Hetuala, where the Manchus started. I wonder what Shuai Hu cares about?"

Di Qing also looked at Hu Zongxian after hearing the words.

"That's why I invited the two generals here. Although Shengjing has been destroyed now, the emperor and queen mother of the Qing Dynasty have also fallen into our hands. But there are still many remnants of the Qing Dynasty scattered everywhere. And the old Daishan has escaped again. , If these people gather under Daishan’s command again, it will cause us some troubles. Moreover, the various tribes in Mongolia are also in chaos, some surrendered to us, and some raised their own troops to attack each other.”

"There is also a Manchu Qing garrison in North Korea. I learned from the prisoners that it seems that Dorgon's younger brother Duoduo was transferred to be the commander. These prisoners and Manchu immigrants also need to be dealt with reasonably. These are all questions. Please speak freely about what the two generals think."

Hu Zongxian's tone was calm, and he laid out all the problems he was facing in an orderly manner, soliciting the opinions of Di Qing and Ran Wu.

Both Di Qing and Ran Wu are not the kind of fierce generals who can only charge into battle. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are generals, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are handsome.

Both of them had obviously thought about these issues before coming here, so after a little tidying up, they shared their thoughts.

 There are also updates.Thanks to the big guys "Mu Zhi Qi Baa Ming Hao" and "Zhu Tuan" for their rewards.
