After Wan Shide said this, Xiao Ruxun didn't insist anymore.
In any case, some of the Ming Dynasty's bureaucrats also supported the new rituals, and the more loyal officials and ministers were to the country, the more they supported the new rituals.
As a result, many Han gentry in Huamachi began to be driven out of the city by the officers and soldiers under Xiao Ruxun.
"You are abusing the gentlemen! Humiliating the gentlemen!"
"How different are you from bandits? How different!"
Han Zhaorui, a retired official, was yelling and crying when he was forcibly dragged out by the army.
At the same time, Guan Binqian, a Jin gentry who had served as the Secretary of the Nanjing Imperial College, directly blocked the door of his house at this time, reacted very fiercely, and said:
"Unless you kill me today, my Guan clan will never leave the city!"
This incident directly alarmed Xiao Ruxun.
Xiao Ruxun came here in person and asked Guan Binqian: "Sir, are you really unwilling to leave the city?"
Guan Binqian turned his head away.
Xiao Ruxun took his bow directly from his horse and shot.
On the spot, Guan Binqian was hit by an arrow in the chest and fell on the threshold.
"Those who dare to violate the constitution will be killed without mercy!"
Xiao Ruxun said loudly, and then said: "Catch everyone inside!"
"yes!"
Immediately, a group of officers and soldiers rushed in, and not long after, they forcibly escorted many gentry children out.
After these gentry knew that the officers and soldiers really dared to kill them, they all cooperated very well. After all, Guan Binqian's end was already in front of him.
And because Wan Shide and Xiao Ruxun also drove out the gentry in the city, there was really a family of officials who directly raised troops to confront the government and the army.
The reason is that there are really gentry in the city who are secretly plotting desperadoes and trappers hiding in their homes, and they really intend to support the rebels who care more about the interests of the gentry until the situation becomes clear in the future.
Just like in the history of the late Ming Dynasty, some gentry would secretly accumulate troops in advance, and after the slave-building had the upper hand, they decisively killed the surrendering officials and the original Ming Dynasty officials who refused to surrender, and directly surrendered to the Qing Dynasty.
Because the slave builders at that time had also shown their behavior to win over the Han gentry and take care of the interests of the Han gentry.
Therefore, Wan Shide and Xiao Ruxun are really not doing this hysterically now. They know better than anyone else what kind of stuff these bureaucrats and gentry are, and they will not hesitate to call them cruel officials and drive the gentry out of the city.
After all, only the common people and ordinary officers and soldiers will truly stand on Xinli's side, and they hope that the court will be exempted from corvee service.
After the gentry in Huamachi City were driven out, they had to sleep outside in the open air. As a result, they all shivered from the cold and felt miserable, so they secretly cursed Wan Shide and Xiao Ruxun.
Some gentry even came directly to the city gate and pointed at Wan Shide and Xiao Ruxun and scolded them.
But Wan Shide and Xiao Ruxun ignored them and only looked at the captives who were still staying here in the distance and surrounding Huamachi.
Xiao Ruxun first said to Wan Shide: "There are obviously fewer captives than before. It can be seen that they must have gone elsewhere and have no intention of driving the Han people to attack Huamachi. So, should we take the initiative to attack and retreat?" Those trappers?"
"It is not advisable to attack in case there is an ambush. The best way now is to stand firm and wait for help."
"Besides, the imperial court now has abundant troops and financial resources. There is no need to take risks like the Tatars!"
Wan Shide rejected Xiao Ruxun's proposal at this time.
After hearing this, Xiao Ruxun gave up the idea and continued to ask Wan Shide: "Based on the military constitution, where did the other captives go?"
"Either they are targeting Marquis Ningyuan, or they are targeting Marquis Shuozhou. No matter who they are targeting, the Tatars cannot afford to lose or spend money, so they have to take risks, and we don't have to."
Wan Shide looked intently at the wasteland outside the city and said.
At this time, Daban rose to the city.
After delaying until September, the army led by Ma Guisu finally began to leave the city.
Moreover, the former army had already left the city and headed towards the northern foot of Yin Mountain.
The Chinese army was still gathering outside the city.
The rear army has not set off yet.
Before the Chinese army set off, Ma Gui once again asked Long Yi, the Jin Yiwei Qianhu who was accompanying the army: "Long Qianhu, can the few Jinyi guards you found really take us over the Yinshan Mountains and reach Urad?"
"Please rest assured, Marquis Shuozhou. Many of them are the Jin Yiwei who were lurking here during the Chenghua Dynasty. Some of them have become small leaders in Taolu. They are very familiar with Yinshan. Now they are even running with them because of their humble position." After one trip, it will be no problem for the army to sneak across Yinshan Mountain!"
Long Yi replied at this time.
After hearing this, Ma Gui nodded, and then sighed: "Xianmiao is still far-sighted. If it weren't for him, it's hard to say whether I can repeat the trick this time."
With that said, Ma Gui got on the horse and said, "Then let Brother Jin Yiwei lead the way!"
"Marquis Shuozhou is so polite. We are all close ministers of the emperor, so why should we separate ourselves from each other?"
Long Yi got on the horse after saying that.
After more than ten days, it started to snow lightly, and the air-conditioning seemed to come out of the ground in large quantities, making people shiver, especially in the morning and night, it already felt like winter.
Zhuli Rabbit was already impatient with waiting, and on this day he said to Zalike: "It's snowing before my eyes. Why hasn't he, Ma Gui, shown up yet?"
"It should be soon!"
"I'll send someone to take a look."
As Zalik was talking, suddenly, a rumbling sound of artillery came from the west, shaking the whole earth as if it was shaking.
Many horses that had never heard of artillery could not help but panic and screamed in the manger.
"what happened?"
Zhelitu couldn't help but ask.
As soon as Zhuli Rabbit asked, he saw a raging fire burning ahead in the direction of Urad.
Not long after, Taolu Taijizhuang Tu Lai ran and said: "The Ming army suddenly appeared behind us and used artillery to break through our camp in Urad. Our camels and a large amount of fodder were killed and burned by them. The fever is gone! And their front army is moving this way, and my men and horses can't stop it, they can't stop it at all, because their firearms are really powerful!"
Zhuang Tulai said: "Great Khan, let's retreat quickly! It is impossible to encircle. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are crowded in this narrow strip, and most of them are still waiting to encircle the Ming army. It is not conducive to After unfolding it, there was no time to come back for reinforcements, so I could only watch helplessly as he was being divided and killed by his firearms!"
"It is impossible to encircle, but is it possible to withdraw?"
Jilitu couldn't help but say something, looking very depressed.
At this time, Zha Like said: "You can retreat towards the direction of Dabansheng City! I will take my soldiers and horses first to trick Dabansheng City away."
The rabbit nodded.
But just as Zalik left, Zhuli Rabbit suddenly took off his bow, drew the bow and aimed an arrow at Zalik.
"ah!"
Suddenly, with just one arrow, Zalik, who was named King of Shunyi by the Ming Dynasty, screamed and fell off his horse.
The Rabbit smiled coldly and said, "Don't think I don't know what you mean by pulling on Rick!"
With that said, Zhuli Rabbit pulled out his sword and said: "Send the order and break out in the direction of Helan Mountain! These cunning Ming troops must have come over the Yinshan Mountains. We have obviously been deceived by Zhalike!"
"yes!"
But as the people like Zhulitu said, they gathered too many captives here, numbering hundreds of thousands. They originally wanted to use the geographical advantage and the method of hunting divided by wolves to wipe out most of the Magui.
But now, even if they evacuate, it will take a lot of time, and this gives the Ming army of the Magui tribe outside the opportunity to divide and encircle them.
The Ming army, which jumped directly outside the encirclement set up by Litu and the other captives, was like a pack of wolves that suddenly appeared, biting the captives crazily.
By the time Zhulitu broke out, there were only a few hundred riders left around him. It took Magui three days just to capture prisoners, and he didn't even have time to count the Tatars who were killed and beheaded.
