Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 338 Victory (Third)
The four kings of the Qing court were eager to fight for success and were closest to Zhu Yousong's imperial tent, so they were killed on the spot. The worst ones were Prince Azig of England and King Zhishun Shang Kexi. However, Prince Yu Duoduo and Huaishun King Geng Zhongming were blown up several feet high and fell to the ground. Geng Zhongming died on the spot.

Prince Yu Duoduo was relatively experienced. He was still alive after landing, but his face and body were covered in blood.The place where he landed was also unlucky, it was a burning firewood pile.He wanted to run, but one leg was broken, and the intestines in his lower abdomen came out. He used to gallop on the battlefield on horseback, but now he can only crawl forward like a snail.

He wanted to yell, but he opened his mouth for a long time but he didn't even yell out half a word, because there was a big blood hole in his throat at this time, not only gurgling blood but also leaking air.

But the fire made him really uncomfortable. He struggled to climb a few steps in the sea of ​​flames, raised his hand full of blood, and soon this hand fell down, and finally stopped moving. With a sudden realization and a little unwillingness, he completely lost the color of life.

The luckiest of them was Sun Zhixie, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites of the Qing court. He was not far behind Duoduo and Geng Zhongming, and was surrounded by a large number of Qing troops. It also flew away.

Miraculously, Sun Zhixie was not injured when he fell, but Sun Zhixie, who was similar to Prince Yu Duoduo, also fell on a burning firewood. Although Sun Zhixie was a civil servant, he had also practiced martial arts for a few days, and he knew how many The martial arts Bachao is also out of the instinct of escape. At this time, what kind of donkey rolls, rolls eighteen rolls on the spot, and after all the moves that can escape have been used, after rolling and crawling, he fell into a deep hole again. In the pit, he fell dizzy.

He panted like a cow, felt his head was still there, oh, he is not dead, although his whole body hurts badly, the feathers on the top of his head are gone, his waist is twisted, his legs are also limped, his face is torn, and his head There are a few more walnut-like buns on the body, and the beard is gone. It can be said that there is a lot of hurt, but finally the arms and legs are complete, and there are no fatal injuries.

At this time, there were explosions outside one after another, accompanied by the sound of burning fire, the cries and screams of the Qing army, and the wailing of war horses.

Sun Zhixie was shaking in the pit. He had never experienced such a violent explosion and fire at his age. After he was in shock, he realized that they had all been tricked and buried here. How much explosives did you use to make it so powerful?No wonder the Ming army never fired a single shot. It turned out that all the explosives and shells were used here. Zhu Yousong is too scary. It seems that he cast the wrong master...

At this time, relatively speaking, the pit is the most comfortable.Sun Zhixie leaned on the pit, looking up while panting, this big pit was eight or nine feet deep even if it wasn't one foot long, not to mention that he was full of scars now, even when he was intact, he couldn't get up without help, and he couldn't get up on any ladder go.

But there are flames and thick smoke everywhere, and the heat is scorching. Sun Zhixie doesn't want to go up, but who knows where the next explosion will be, even if there is no explosion, it is not safe here. However, being caught by the Ming army, do you want to stay here and wait for death?
Sun Zhixie thought this way, looked down, and suddenly he found a hole behind him, it was dark, it was daytime, and with the light of the fire outside, he could see the dark hole wall clearly, this is It was obviously a newly dug tunnel.

In an instant, Sun Zhixie understood that Zhu Yousong's troops had withdrawn from the tunnel ahead of time. No wonder tens of thousands of Ming troops disappeared overnight. It turned out that they also dug tunnels. , and dug a tunnel underneath, it is really unpredictable.

At this time, Sun Zhixie was almost panting, and the pain on his body was no longer so painful. He picked up a knife and a burning stick that fell into the pit as a torch, because the tunnel became darker as he went in. , he hunched over and groped forward along the tunnel...

Compared with the four kings of the Qing court and the Qing army who were killed on the spot, Sun Zhixie was considered lucky, but as lucky as him, there were also some Qing troops, because there were several tunnels in the Ming camp. Many places were bombed and collapsed, and after being discovered by these desperate Qing soldiers, they had to dig into the tunnel like a mouse.

But most of the Qing troops were not so lucky. Some of the [-] Qing troops were blown to pieces in the earth-shattering explosion in the Ming Camp, some flew into the sky, and some fell to the ground by the huge shock wave. The troops of the army were in disarray at that time, fleeing in all directions, colliding and trampling each other, causing casualties.

At this time, the fire in the Ming camp was even more intense. The dotted stacks of firewood and combustible materials were all ignited among each other.

Only those who were close to the edge of the Ming camp and those who escaped quickly were lucky enough to get their lives, and escaped in all directions when they left the Ming camp.

But these Qing troops didn't run very far. Liu Zhaoji and Zu Keyong led [-] Ming troops to charge from all directions.The [-] army was not too small, covering the sky and the earth, like the rising tide of the sea, every time they passed by, those Qing troops who escaped from the Ming camp by chance all fell into a pool of blood with their mistakes.

Liu Zhaoji and Zu Keyong led their men and horses to have a good time, and killed all the Qing troops who had escaped from the Ming camp, whether they were Tartars or traitors, without leaving any of them. Outside the Ming camp, there were Qing soldiers everywhere. corpse.

More than half an hour later, they rushed into the camp. At this time, there was no one alive in the camp.

The fire in the camp was basically burnt out, and in some places there were residual fires still burning, and in some places there were no open fires, leaving only dark fires and light smoke. Many tunnels in the camp were blown down, and there were potholes everywhere. The city wall that Songdong spent ten days building with thousands of soldiers day and night has basically collapsed. This project is the same as the tunnel and firewood explosives. These major projects can be regarded as coming to an end. Now the huge Ming camp is in ruins .

There was a strong, pungent smell in the air, the smell of burning cloth and leather products and roasting meat.

Liu Zhaoji and Zu Keyong commanded people to search on the spot, and only found Azig's saber and Shang Kexi's helmet, which was later discussed by Ma Bao after the incident, and Geng Zhongming's corpse, although it was as black as coal, but carefully I can still identify it.

In the end, the body of Prince Yu Duoduo was found. Under his body was a pile of firewood. The firewood had been burned long ago. Only a complete pair of armor and a few black pieces of black leather wrapped in the armor coat were left for this Prince Yu. Bones like coal.

Liu Zhaoji ordered his personal soldiers to collect the bones and relics of the four kings. This is the evidence of their death in battle, and they must be reported to His Majesty Zhu Yousong for further disposal.

With 5000 troops left behind, a deputy commander was responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and other aftermath measures. Liu Zhaoji and Zu Keyong brought more than 1 victorious troops to the dense forest of Xishan to meet Zhu Yousong to report victory.
