Blood from Daming

Chapter 810

Xue Rui endured humiliation and led more than 50 servants of the Xue family, including Xue Zong and Xue Jie, to Yongdingmen. However, Xue Rui, the admiral of Yongdingmen, was a nameless admiral. Emperor Chongzhen didn't trust Xue Rui, and Cao Huachun, the supervisor of Yongdingmen, treated the Xue family as spies. That's how Xue Rui, Xue Zong, and Xue Jie still worked hard to defend Yongdingmen, but Xue Zong would be in front of them when no one was free. Xue Rui and Xue Jie insulted and cursed Xue Yun.

Three days later, Yu Anxing, Minister of the Ministry of War, came back to revive the order. Xuezhuang and Wuqing suffered heavy casualties, and they were unable to rush to Yongdingmen in a short period of time. Xuezhuang and Xuesi proposed that the court release Ni Hongshuang, the concubine of young master Xue Yun, and Baisheng. Among the disciples, Emperor Chongzhen was very angry when he got the news of Yu Anxing.

Next, follow Yu Anxing to Xuezhuang, Jinyiwei of Wuqing, Dongchang spies to report that the corpses of Xuezhuang, Wuqing Jianlu and Xue Jiajun piled up like a mountain, especially outside Xuezhuangzhuang, Jianlu piled up the corpses for several miles, roughly It is estimated that no fewer than [-] people have to climb over rotting corpses when entering and leaving Xuezhuang, and Xuezhuang has been burned by fire. After eating, even if they barely ate it, many people still vomited out.

After listening to Wang Chengen's report, Emperor Chongzhen had a better impression of the Xue family, but when he thought about it, Emperor Chongzhen was taken aback and asked, "Big companion, the Xue family alone has such a powerful fighting force."

Wang Chengen said: "Xue Yun has been running Xuezhuang for many years. There are plenty of artillery in the village, and the Xue family is famous for its firearms. One attack and one defense make the Xue family take advantage of the right time, place and people. In addition, Xue Wu in Cangzhou is desperately restrained, and most of the Jianlu dispatched are It is normal for Mongolian thieves and traitors to be able to guard Xuezhuang."

Emperor Chongzhen was silent about whether to release Xue Yun's concubine Ni Hongshuang and Baishengtang disciples out of the city. Wang Chengen could only stand aside silently. After about a quarter of an hour, an eunuch on duty stuck his head in and looked. Immediately, he walked out of the imperial study room lightly, and Wang Chengen returned to Emperor Chongzhen after a while.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Wang Chengen decadently and asked, "Big companion, is something wrong again?"

Wang Chengen said in a low voice: "The emperor is a good thing. According to the secret report of Jinyiwei, Datongqin Wang Jun wiped out four Niulu of Jianlu in twenty miles north of Shunyi County yesterday, two of them were Jurchen Niulu, and captured thousands of heads. "

Emperor Chongzhen smiled wryly after hearing this. Didn’t the Datong Army lose contact some time ago? Now as soon as their leader Xue Liu was resumed, the entire Datong Army appeared, and even wiped out thousands of Jianlu in one battle. Didn't it mean that something happened to me before? Hmph, a group of arrogant soldiers and powerful generals only know about Xue Yun, but they don't know about me and the court.

Emperor Chongzhen said: "Da Companion, didn't you ask the Datong Army to rush to the Yongding Gate? Why is the Datong Army still wandering in the north?"

Wang Chengen replied: "Your Majesty, the ministers and Jin Yiwei who were sent out to deliver the decree have not returned yet, and the details of the Datong Army's slaves and maidservants are still unclear."

Emperor Chongzhen said: "Decree to send the best imperial doctor to treat Xue Yun's concubine."

On December 26, a Ming army came from outside the Yongding Gate, which made the officials on the city and the prisoners under the city wait and see. The "Li" flag stayed for a quarter of an hour at the ten miles of Liyongding Gate. At this time, Jianlu killed a 5000-strong "Xue" flag army.

This made Xue Rui on the top of the wall ashamed. Why did the Xue family have two scumbags Xue Bin and Xue Bo? Thinking of Xue Rui's tears at the sad place, Xue Jie pulled Xue Rui and said: "Grandpa, look , is the army of our Xue family."

Xue Rui wiped away his tears and looked at the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty in the distance. Sure enough, among the banners with the characters of "Gao", "Horse" and "Li", several huge banners with the characters of Xue were raised, and then there was a burst of "boom" "Boom", "boom", "boom", "boom" and "boom", ten percent of the Jianlu who were flying the "Xue" flag fell and [-]% fell, and Jianlu's "Xue" family army was defeated.

After the victory, the officers and soldiers with the banner of Xue Zi did not clean up the battlefield too much, but drove straight to Yongdingmen, which also had the banner of Xue Zi. The officers and soldiers with the Xue character banner arrived at Yongdingmen and began to call the city. Xue Jie answered from the city: "Where are you officers and soldiers from?"

Ma Mingzong immediately stepped forward and said: "We are Qin Wangjun from Yan'an Prefecture in Shaanxi Province and Jiangzhou in Shanxi Province. Please open the gates of the city quickly and let us enter the city."

Xue Jie asked: "Why do you have a big banner with the word Xue in your army?"

Ma Ming said: "My general is a member of the Xue family, so naturally he can play the banner of Xue."

Xue Jie said: "Send your seal to the city."

Ma Ming immediately sent his own soldiers across the moat, and put Gao Guiying's general seal and Li Zhizhou's Zhizhou seal into a basket hanging from the city. Grandfather Xue Rui took a closer look, and Xue Rui also confirmed that the Qin Wangjun was under the city. He immediately asked Gao Qiqian, who was on duty today, to open the door and let Qin Wangjun enter the city. Hurry up and ask Cao Huachun for instructions.

As for the result, people with a normal mind are clear about it. Don't say that Cao Huachun has been causing trouble for the Xue family. The emperor nodded, which made Gao Guiying's men come to the death place under Yongdingmen City, and Gao Guiying, who knew nothing about the rules and regulations of the Ming court, was still kept in the dark.

Gao Guiying waited at the Yongding Gate and did not open the city gate. Seeing that the Jian captives had surrounded him, she couldn't help but start to feel anxious. So Xue Bo, a son of the Xue family who was captured just now, came up. Gao Guiying asked Xue Bo to call for the city. Xue Bo himself I know what I am doing, I am afraid that if I stand under the Yongding Gate, I will be shot to death by random arrows.

However, Xue Bo was very clear about the rules of the Ming court and the army, and immediately told Gao Guiying that it was impossible to open the gate of Yongding, and escaped before the Jian captives were completely encircled, or he would become a victim of the Ming Dynasty, Gao Guiying He was dubious, but Li Zhizhou next to him at this time was telling the truth to what Xue Bo said, and now that everyone's life was cut off, Li Zhizhou regretted that he was greedy for meritorious deeds and followed Laiqin Wang.

Gao Guiying himself was rushing to Xuezhuang, but he encountered Jianlu siege at Yongdingmen, and the Xuejia army banner was on the Yongdingmen tower, so he moved closer to Yongdingmen out of intimacy, but unexpectedly put his 5000 people Taken to a place of death, Gao Guiying became angry for no reason, and hated the court and Emperor Chongzhen even more. With grief and indignation, he had to order to prepare to fight Jianlu.

Ma Ming accepted Mrs. Gao's order to fight to the death, and Ma Ming shouted out, "Soldiers of the Xue family army, what are we doing in Beijing?"

Thousands of Xue family soldiers shouted together: "King Qin, kill the Tartars."

Ma Ming said: "When we arrived in Beijing today, we couldn't get in. Now that the Jian captives have been killed, what should our Xue family army do?"

The generals of the Xue family army shouted: "Fight to the death, fight to the end."

Ma Ming said: "This general is going to recruit dead soldiers. Now is the time for you to be loyal to Daming. Don't worry about your family members. They will receive the best care from General Xue Yun. There is a seat for you in the Xue Family Army Martyr's Hall."

"I want to sign up" "Count me" "I" "Count me"

With the veterans of the Xue family army under Ma Ming as the introduction, countless soldiers of the Gao family signed up to join the death squads. In a short time, more than 500 people signed up to become the death squads. Ma Ming did not ask them to leave the team, but asked them to wear A white belt is different from ordinary soldiers, and they are only allowed to fight as dead soldiers at critical times.

Gao Qiqian on the Yongdingmen City was baffled, and asked Xue Rui what the Ming army was doing in such a mess, Xue Rui also couldn't figure it out, so Xue Zong, who was sitting beside him, said: "Eunuch Gao, this is the army of the Xue family who is selecting the dead soldiers." .”

Gao Qiqian asked in surprise, "How come there are so many willing to die?"

Xue Zong said: "The Xue family's army has always paid for their lives with a lot of money, and even called for killing the Tartars as their own responsibility. When facing Jianlu, they just said one word, either you die or I die."

Rao a heartless person like Gao Qiqian felt a little sad when he heard this. Gao Qiqian thought he couldn't tell whether the Xue family army was loyal to the emperor or a traitor, but he knew that if he wanted to do well, he had to listen to the emperor and Eunuch Cao. , As for the right and wrong of loyalty and rape, it is not considered by a person like me who has no eggs.

When Huang Taiji learned that Yongding Gate had arrived with reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty, he ordered the entire army of the Dajin Kingdom to go out to fight. At this time, Abatai, who was supervising the battle at Yongding Gate, had already lost 3000% of Xue Bin's [-] troops, and let the captured Xue Bo take the opportunity. After escaping, Abatai detained Xue Bin in confusion, and Xue Bin did not regain his personal freedom until Huang Taiji arrived.

Facing the Xue flag, Huang Taiji murmured in his heart, and asked Xue Bin if he knew that it was the Xue family army. Xue Bin was also at a loss as to where it came from. The 5000-strong Xue family army confronted the Dajin Kingdom in Yongdingmen openly. Huang Taiji couldn't bear it and ordered the entire army to wipe out the Xue family army.
