When Ning Wan and I saw him, he was so frightened that he almost lost control of his urine. He quickly shouted in Jurchen language: "I am not a Ming dog, I am a citizen of the Qing Dynasty. I am just a Han official of the Qing Dynasty. I belong to His Highness the Regent." Servant..."
Although he wanted to deny his identity as a Han Chinese, the Jianlu who had already recognized him did not care who he was working for, whether he had betrayed his ancestors, etc., and they surrounded him one after another.
Seeing that he was not affected at all and that countless people were crowding towards him, Ning Wan knew what would happen to him soon. Suddenly, he couldn't control it anymore, and all of a sudden he was pissing and the stench hit his nostrils.
However, he seemed not to feel it. He even knelt down immediately, kowtowed to Jianlu who was surrounding him, and begged for mercy with a crying voice: "I am the dog of the Qing Dynasty. I have worked hard for the Qing Dynasty for so many years. Please forgive me." Get rid of this piece of shit like me! Really, His Royal Highness the Regent still wants to ask me for advice. I am still useful to the Qing Dynasty..."
At this moment, someone in the Jianlu crowd shouted: "Dorgon set the fire. Maybe it was this bright dog who instigated it. Beat him to death!"
As soon as he heard this, Jianlu, who was already a little crazy, couldn't hold it back any longer. He didn't care that Ning Wan and I were kneeling and kowtow, so he stepped forward and punched and kicked me away.
When Ning Wan and I heard the shout, I was startled. Only then did I realize that the fire in the palace was actually started by Dorgon?
"It's not a villain instigating it, it's not..." He hurriedly differentiated, but before he could say a few words, he was beaten. Suddenly, the voice changed, "Ah... ah..."
The screams were louder at first, but that was only the beginning. Soon the sound became low. In the end, all you could hear was Jianlu's shouts, punches and kicks as they rushed to beat him. As for After Ning finished me, I couldn't make a sound at all.
Before losing consciousness, Ning Wan didn't know whether it was in pain or regretting his life's choices. The corners of his eyes were filled with tears, but no one saw or cared.
He was originally one of the famous traitors in history. He once served as the president of the compilation of "History of the Ming Dynasty". He was evaluated by the "Manuscript of History of the Qing Dynasty" as: "I am loyal and loyal, unyielding despite setbacks, and finally accepted the master's contract." In this plane, he eventually became incontinent and was beaten to death by his masters as a way to vent his anger. It can be considered that he worked hard for his masters until his death!
This matter is just a small episode in Shengjing City. The fire in the palace finally burned away the will of all the prisoners, and the smashing and other incidents quickly spread to the entire city. Even the Jianlu people usually looked down upon each other, but when they saw it at this time, they drew their swords against each other and were not sloppy at all. Even if you have resentment in your heart, you can rush to the other party's house to set fire to something you normally wouldn't do due to status issues.
Anyway, the entire Shengjing City was in chaos, and there was no organization at all.
Some people rushed into the fire and committed suicide after crying wildly; others drew their swords to commit suicide; of course, there were also people who jumped from the top of the city to escape the fire.
The blocked city gates were also opened, and large groups of captives swarmed out and fled Shenyang City, crying and shouting to surrender.
However, the Ming army outside the city had already received the order and saw Jianlu rushing out. At some city gates, they shouted that Jianlu dropped his sword and knelt down. At other city gates, they strictly ordered Jianlu not to come near the Ming army. …
No matter what the Ming army said, Jianlu was very panicked. In addition, the Ming army shouted in Ming Dynasty Mandarin with Qin opera. Ordinary Jianlu might not understand it. Suddenly, someone took the lead and went to The Ming army ran over, and the others followed.
Therefore, the Ming army was not polite.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Bah, bah, bah..."
The archers and fusiliers all greeted them, and the captives were all shot and killed under the city gate without even crossing the moat. The corpses were piled high at once.
The Jianlu who were behind saw this scene and remembered what Shangguan had told them, saying that their hands were full of the blood of Ming people and soldiers. Even if they surrendered, the Ming army would definitely kill them for revenge. So they all became desperate and did not leave the city.
Some, after returning to the city, threw themselves into the sea of fire; others then drew their swords to commit suicide, or killed others and were killed by others.
Basically, all the Ming troops outside the city got up and took a look after hearing the news.
The Ming soldiers who were on duty watched the Jianlu outside the city to prevent these crazy Jianlu from attacking the military camp; while the Ming soldiers who were not on duty looked at Shenyang with the flames soaring into the sky in the camp. Everyone was shocked by Jianlu's madness. At first, they all watched speechlessly.
Among them, the soldiers of other ethnic groups who had killed the Jurchens and surrendered last year were the most moved when they saw this scene.
In the past, the Jianlu were fierce and invincible, and anyone who disobeyed them would eventually be defeated by them. Not only these small tribes, but even the vast Ming Dynasty was no match for them. They snatched the entire Liaodong from the Ming Dynasty and proclaimed themselves emperor and founded their country.
To be honest, at the beginning, Jianlu invaded the pass and killed them wantonly. They traveled north, south, east and west, but there were no enemies. They lacked labor and property, so they just entered the pass and plundered. At that time, many people felt that Jianlu would continue to be strong. When they were optimistic, they had even thought about whether the Qing Dynasty would replace the Ming Dynasty.
However, only a few years had passed, and in the blink of an eye, Jianlu had ended up like this. Their capital was burning in front of their eyes; those arrogant Jurchens perished crazily there.
Seeing this, they were very scared. Fortunately, they woke up and killed the Jurchens and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, I will become one of the crazy people in the city!
Thinking like this, many people looked towards the Zhongjun tent, in the direction of the Ming Emperor, and each of them became more awed.
Only the current emperor has the ability to turn the tide and kill Jianlu, who was at the height of his power, in just a few years until they went crazy.
Even in this battle to destroy the country, I originally thought that there must be a big war, a fierce battle. After all, it is not a dog-eat-dog thing to jump over the wall. There are at least 60,000 to 70,000 built captives. How can they fight to the death? The Ming army wants to eliminate these built captives. , it will definitely not be easy!
However, under the current emperor's personal expedition, it was as if he really had the power of the emperor. Before the army arrived, the Jianlu rebels first rebelled on their own. Then, just as if they were watching the flowers on a horse, the important town in Liaodong, the extremely strong Liaoyang, was captured that same day. , the Jianlu captives suffered heavy casualties, but the Ming army had no casualties.
When they arrived at the capital of Jianlu, things were even more shocking to them. After all, it was the capital of Jianlu, but as soon as the emperor arrived, Jianlu was so afraid that he set fire to himself, killed himself, and became a mess. On the Ming army's side, they didn't need to do anything and watched Jianlu's mad demise with their eyes.
At this time, they deeply understood the truth that as long as the current emperor is here, Ming Dynasty will be invincible!
Compared to them, the two Ming frontier officials who stood on the left and right of Emperor Chongzhen and accompanied Emperor Chongzhen, Governor of Baoding Lu Xiangsheng and Governor of Jiliao Hong Chengchou, could understand why Jianlu was so crazy!
However, they did not like Jianlu's approach of preferring death to surrender. Especially Lu Xiangsheng, who had led the army to fight against Jianlu in Liaodong for several years, and knew Jianlu very well. Knowing that this group of people committed countless crimes in Liaodong, especially against the people of Ming Dynasty, they were even more sinful. The madness now is just their retribution!
"What a pity!" Hong Chengchou suddenly said, "If we can escort the Jianlu puppet emperor and those slave chiefs back to the capital, it will show the emperor's prestige even more!"
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen just laughed and said: "These are just tossing around in Liaodong. It doesn't matter whether you take them back or not. When the Ming Dynasty becomes famous all over the world, how many people will know about the things in Liaodong!"
After hearing his words, both Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng were a little unable to understand. But they can hear it, as if the emperor said that such a large Liaodong will be considered a small place in the future, and no one will care about the war that happened here?
No matter how they think about it, both of them are a bit confused. After all, wasn’t the war between Liaodong and Jianlu already the biggest rebellion in the Ming Dynasty?
Emperor Chongzhen doesn't care if they can understand it now. Anyway, when the flag of the Ming Dynasty is planted all over the world, they will understand what he said without saying anything. In the final analysis, these two right-hand men still have a vision problem. But it doesn't matter, I am the one who controls the direction of Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen yawned and said lightly: "The night is already dark, I'm going to rest!"
Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou were slightly stunned after hearing this. How many people had expected to see such a scene, the defeat of Ming Dynasty's biggest enemy, but now right before their eyes, the emperor said he was going to rest?
But think about it, the emperor's dragon body is important, so it's good to rest if you don't care about watching this scene.
As for the two of them, after seeing off the emperor, they continued to look at the Shenyang City with its flames soaring into the sky.
The Jianlu scourge has been wreaking havoc for so many years, and now it is finally coming to an end. Who can sleep after witnessing this scene? Of course, except for the emperor!
That night, more than 100,000 people, both inside and outside the city, stayed up all night, watching the theater outside the city and going crazy in the city.
It wasn't until the sky in the east turned white that the city calmed down a little and became less lively.
It's not that the Jianlu in the city stopped making trouble, but that too many people died and the number of people dropped drastically. Although there was still trouble in the city, the movement was not that big anymore.
Emperor Chongzhen got up and walked out of his tent. He found that Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou had not slept all night, sitting there drinking tea and looking towards Shenyang City.
Seeing Emperor Chongzhen appear, both of them smiled and quickly stood up to greet him.
"My dear friends, please take care of yourself!" Emperor Chongzhen smiled and asked them to stand down, and said at the same time, "It is only natural that the Ming Dynasty is rebellious and should be suppressed. This time, it was a Japanese invasion. I am still waiting for you. Come with me to Edo to drink and watch a show!"
