Qiming 1158

Chapter 801 The End of Ren Dejing
During training, the Ming army jumping soldiers focused on killing people with one blow, focusing on killing efficiency rather than gorgeous moves. The weapons they were equipped with were generally short knives, hand axes or special hammers.

In addition to short knives, which are uniformly equipped with weapons, hand axes and hammers depend on the personal preference of the soldiers.

Some people like to slash people with an axe, and some people like to hammer people with a hammer, and these two weapons have similar moves when fighting.

As long as I use enough strength, my weapon is strong enough, and I greet you in the head, even if you can't get in with an iron helmet, I can kill you with one blow.

The most common training of Ming army jumping soldiers is to hit the head of a straw man or a wooden man fiercely, hitting the head of the target from different angles or avoiding numerous obstacles within a limited time.

In the training, the success rate of hitting the head is based on the success rate. Soldiers with a large number of successful hits can get extra meals. Soldiers with a small number of successful hits have to clean the toilets and pick up large feces.

On the battlefield, the Ming army jumping soldiers are also headshot madmen.

Although the Ming army did not encounter any serious enemy formations that could confront the Ming army face-to-face after the fall of the Jin Kingdom, Su Yonglin still set up this type of arm, and the targets were the armies of the Western Xia and the Southern Song Dynasty. He felt that there must be two sides in the future When the army is fighting.

At this moment, it is time for them to show their prestige.

The army led by Ren Yong is obviously not a weak chicken, but in the face of the sudden jumping soldiers of the Ming army, they are obviously at a disadvantage.

Perhaps such a small army did not have time to prepare similar arms. When the Ming army jumping soldiers rushed out of the army, they did not react. They were smashed by the Ming army jumping soldiers with axes and hammers. Be caught off guard.

First kicked them, knocked them to the ground, and then smashed them down with a hammer or a hand axe, instantly blasting dozens of heads.

The fall of the first-line sword and shield hand provided an excellent opportunity for the Ming army spearmen. Dozens of spears suddenly stabbed past, and the Xixia spearmen who had no time to react were stabbed one after another, blood splashed everywhere, and died on the spot.

Then the jumping soldiers stood up and rushed into the Xixia army formation without fear of death, wielding hammers and hand axes to kill the Quartet, stirring up the Xixia army formation.

The Ming army sword and shield fighters took advantage of the situation and rushed forward with their shields up, overthrowing the remaining sword and shield fighters in the Xixia army in one fell swoop, squeezing them to the ground, and the Xixia army formation was broken.

Once the army formation was broken and the pikemen lost their protection, their fighting spirit also collapsed.

The army then collapsed.

Seeing the collapse of the army, Ren Yong was shocked, and shouted loudly not to mess up, not to waver, to continue killing the enemy, but it was useless, and no soldiers obeyed his command.

In a hurry, he personally led a small number of personal soldiers into the battle, trying to use his bravery to turn the tide of the battle.

He wielded a long sword and slaughtered the Quartet, and the general Ming army soldiers were not his opponents. He killed several Ming army soldiers in a row.

Seeing that this man used his bravery to be vicious, the Ming army jumping soldiers could not tolerate it, so three or five people besieged him alone. Ren Yong had difficulty parrying. The other jumping soldier behind him jumped up directly, waving the hammer in his hand and hammering it on his iron helmet.

Ren Yong is a fully-armed steel beast. With a tall stature, he is an indestructible and powerful character as long as he stands on the battlefield. With a wave of his long sword, he can take away several lives. He is a pure war machine.

However, at this moment, his consciousness drifted away from him.

No matter how tough a man is, as long as his head is hit by a hammer, he will probably die...

So Ren Yong fell heavily to the ground.

With his fall, the blocking force he brought also completely collapsed. Jiang Liangping commanded his troops to move forward quickly and continue to seize the military key points in order to completely penetrate the Xixia Palace.

At the same time, Ren Dejing didn't know about this, he was anxiously waiting for the battle situation on the front line, anxiously waiting for his soldiers to bring him the good news that Miyagi had saved.

In this case, at least he still has the last hope, he can still struggle for the last time, and once again he has the capital to negotiate, and he can use the lives of everyone in Miyagi to make a last-ditch effort.

But Ren Yong didn't come back, but his daughter, Mrs. Ren, came later.

"Father! I heard that the imperial city has been overrun by the Ming army, isn't it?"

Empress Dowager Ren was full of panic and fear.

"Didn't I tell you to stay in the harem and not run around? Protect the little emperor! Let's rely on the little emperor as a bargaining chip!"

"Father! It's this time, what are you still thinking about? The Ming army has already come, right in front of us! They won't let you go, and they won't let you go no matter what! Hurry up and find a way to escape!"

Empress Dowager Ren pushed Ren Dejing, hoping to push him away.

Ren Dejing grabbed the Empress Dowager Ren's hand.

"I can't go, I can't go anywhere but here! Here's everything I've tried my best to get, everything I need most! I can't leave here no matter what! No!"

He shook off Empress Dowager Ren's hand and said angrily: "Go away! Go to the harem! Don't come here! Any problems will be solved here, don't get in the way here! It's none of your business here! Come! Bring the Empress Dowager back. , don't allow her to come out again!"

Ren Dejing ignored Empress Dowager Ren's final dissuasion, and sent troops to bring Empress Dowager Ren back to the harem, locked the palace gate and prevented her from coming out.

After completing all this, Ren Dejing was horrified to learn that the Ming army was not far from the palace where he was located. There were palace maids and eunuchs fleeing from the palace who were captured by the Ming army. In order to survive, he showed them the way, and they were coming here. .

"Where's Ren Yong?! Didn't I let him guard the palace gate? Why is the Ming army here? Is he dead?!"

"I don't know! I really don't know! Xiangguo, hurry up and leave here! It's really unstoppable here! Those palace maids and eunuchs are very familiar with the road here!"

The subordinates anxiously urged Ren Dejing to leave and go to a safer place to hide, but Ren Dejing was unwilling to leave.

"I can't go, I go, I have nothing."

"Xiangguo!!"

"I do not go!"

Ren Dejing insisted on staying in the Xiangguo Mansion, which was converted from his royal palace, and used the last personal guards for defense, insisting on guarding his power, like a sad gambler who lost to the end with only one life left.

The Ming army soon arrived at Ren Dejing's Xiangguo Mansion, led by a group of eunuchs and palace maids, and had a fierce confrontation with the last defenders of the Xiangguo Mansion.

Jiang Liangping commanded the army to eliminate the last defenders without much effort, and fully occupied the prime minister's palace.

There were also Ren Dejing's die-hard loyalists in the Prime Minister's Mansion who tried to resist, such as his close ministers and family slaves, and they all killed with their weapons, but they had no fighting power against the regular army, and they had no chance of winning.

So although they were brave and useless, they rushed over without any rules, and were killed by the Ming army crossbowmen in front of a round of arrows, and blood was spilled on the spot.

Before the rest could react, the Ming army jumping soldiers had already rushed forward, waving hammers and axes to greet their heads, and smashed them all down in a single glance.

The difference between a regular army and a straggler is just that terrifying.

After crossing countless corpses, Jiang Liangping, who was covered in blood, led his troops into the main hall with red eyes, and saw Ren Dejing who was sitting on the main seat of the main hall pretending to be calm.

In fact, he originally wanted to stand, but because his legs were weak and he couldn't stand, he chose to sit.

"Ren Dejing, I heard that you don't believe that the Daming army will come to you to punish you, right? I'm sorry, now that the Daming army is really here, what do you think?"

Jiang Liangping walked to Ren Dejing step by step with the blood-stained knife.

Ren Dejing looked at Jiang Liangping who was approaching step by step, and a strong fear and panic rose in his heart for no reason.

At this moment, he seemed to understand Li Renxiao who had been threatened in the same way before.

It was really terrifying, very terrifying, there was a sense of panic that it was hard to breathe, and I felt that I was going to suffocate and die in the next second.

Why is it so scary?

Ren Dejing couldn't figure it out.

But although his legs are soft, his mouth is hard.

"I don't have any impressions. It's all about winning and losing. You win and I lose."

"Win the king or lose the bandit? You are not qualified to be a king, from the beginning to the end, you have no such qualification, you are just a clown jumping the beam, the Emperor Daming said, even if you are strong, you will be killed! What's more, you are not strong at all. It’s okay for Li Yuanhao to come in person, you? Humph!”

Ren Dejing was a little angry, but this anger was quickly suppressed by a strong fear.

"I want to kill you with one knife, but it's too easy for you, it's too good for you, this can't be done, I have to capture you and present it to the Emperor Daming, and then behead you in public, only then will you be worthy of it. Daming is so powerful!"

Jiang Liangping shouted, "Someone! Bind him up for me!"

The soldiers under Jiang Liangping immediately rushed forward and tied up Ren Dejing, who was sitting still on the chair.

Ren Dejing didn't resist even a little or make a sound until the end. Maybe he knew that he couldn't survive and his heart was dead, so he didn't struggle to survive.

He just wondered if he could remain so calm when Arrive Zhongdu was about to be executed.

Ren Dejing was captured, representing the complete collapse of the Xixia coup forces.

But before that, the entire center of Xixia was almost destroyed.

For his own power, Ren Dejing killed all the officials who stood up to confront him, which almost killed a quarter of the central officials of Xixia.

While the Ming army was attacking the city, the rioting Xixia soldiers also swept the entire imperial city.

Not to mention the palace, many rioting soldiers scrambled throughout the whole process, killing people, arson and looting everywhere, and the residences of many Xixia court officials and their families were poisoned by rioting soldiers.

After the Ming army entered the city, the main strategic goal was to control the important military and political areas. The first time did not quell the madness of the chaotic army in the city, and the second action plan was to restore the peace of the city.

Therefore, when the Ming army set out to restore stability in the city and killed the uncontrolled rioting soldiers, not only the people in the city, but many officials and wealthy households were slaughtered by the rebel army, and many houses were burnt down. mess.

After the Ming army finally completely quelled all the rioting soldiers in the imperial city, the time has come to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the third year of Hongwu, which is the day of the Lantern Festival.

After thorough statistics, Su Haisheng basically determined that more than half of the officials in the entire central Xixia died in this violent turmoil, including their families, who were also severely injured in the turmoil and suffered heavy casualties.

What surprised him was that Ren Dejing only left his daughter as the queen mother, and Li Renxiao's youngest son Li Chunbao, who was only three years old.

In addition, the entire Xixia royal family was killed by him, leaving no one left, men, women and children, all corpses.

According to the account of the eunuch in charge of clan affairs at the palace, Ren Dejing even sent people to various places to kill those clans that were sealed outside, intending to wipe out the Xixia royal family in one go, leaving no future troubles.

Ren Dejing is really ready to clear the way for his enthronement and proclaiming himself emperor. Leaving a three-year-old baby and his daughter is just a facade. The real power must be in his own hands.

He couldn't leave himself with any obstacles.

As the commander-in-chief of this war, Su Haisheng knew Su Yonglin's ultimate goal, so he felt very happy when he learned the specific situation, because Ren Dejing cleared the obstacles for Su Yonglin's plan.

I really have to thank him.

Otherwise, the royal family in the Xixia Palace is really difficult to deal with.

Kill it, bad reputation.

Don't kill it, keep it a waste of money, it's annoying.

In addition, because of the death of a large number of officials and the purge of officials from the Ren Dejing faction who were in charge of the government after that, the government of Xixia fell into stagnation.

However, this also laid the foundation for the reconstruction plan of Xixia after Daming.
