Nanming Engineer

Chapter 455 The Butterfly Effect
The desperate Qing soldiers still chased after them, and the cavalry galloped and swaggered so majesticly that they frightened Bai Guangen, who was completely naked, into the Kuizhou army.

A general of the Kuizhou army who led the team grabbed him, put a knife on his neck, and warned: "Don't run around, be careful that the knife doesn't have eyes!"

In a panic, Bai Guangen turned back to look at the galloping Mongolian cavalry, bent over nervously and said: "Okay, okay, don't run around, don't run around. But my lord, there are Mongolian soldiers chasing over there, don't hurry up!" Go in and avoid it, it's dangerous!"

In front is the Ming army's low wall and wooden gate. Once inside, the Mongolian cavalry can only sigh and feel helpless.

The general of Kuizhou stared at the Mongolian soldiers approaching in the distance, carelessly waved his knife in the air, waved it, and said contemptuously: "I'm afraid of a bird! They can twist your head off and use it as a chamber pot" use!"

When Bai Guangen heard this, he felt reassured. He was about to give up his hand, but suddenly realized that what he said was wrong. Just as he was about to tell the difference, he was pushed by the Kuizhou officer, fell into the pile of prisoners, and was tied up with a rope.

The Han soldiers who surrendered were crowded and driven to one place, and were searched one by one. The Han soldiers who were searched couldn't help looking back nervously, lest the Mongols would rush up.However, the Kuizhou soldiers who searched were all indifferent, and they touched up and down seriously.

And several rows of white armored soldiers have lined up behind the captives, two rows of bird gunners, and three rows of pikemen, forming a circle to protect thousands of people crowded together. On the crescent axe.

Behind the low wall of the Ming army, Yan Mingde, the commander of the artillery team, squinted and took a careful look at the mountain of a large three-hundred-pound French cannon. He stretched out a hand and made a figure of eight to estimate the distance from a distance. , and waved backwards with the other hand, signaling the gunner to load the barrel.

He slightly adjusted the elevation angle of the Fran cannon, stood up to get out of the way, and lowered a red flag that had been erected for a long time. A gunner stepped forward and ignited the fuse.

Twenty large Frang machine guns placed behind the low wall fired at the same time. The range of this kind of gun is not as good as that of the Shenwei gun, and it can shoot hundreds of paces, but it is better than the speed of fire. Several sub-cannons take turns The charge can fire four or five shots in a short period of time, which can be regarded as super fast.

A cannon shot over, blowing up a wall of smoke. The Mongols were very clever. Except for a few unlucky ghosts who were killed by the iron bullets, the rest of the people used their superb riding skills to change directions inconceivably at high speed. At the same time, he threw a rain of arrows, and then ran back.

The rain of arrows broke through the air in the gunpowder smoke and plunged into the mud. The gunman standing at the front was dozens of steps away from the Kuizhou army.

Li Tingyu stared at the Mongols who ran away in the smoke, and after confirming that they would not come back, he ordered repeatedly to bring in the Han soldiers strung together in a row with bare hands.

So groups of Han troops lined up in double columns were watched and led into Shiling Pass during the fighting. Everyone was tied up with ropes and could not resist. These Han troops, including Bai Guangen, secretly looked at them curiously. Looking around at their Kuizhou army, they anxiously speculated what would happen to them.

Upstairs, Li Dingguo looked at the long queue, frowned and said, "These captives are troublesome. Now that the enemy is at hand, where are the people to watch them?"

Wang Huan had a different opinion. He pressed his hand against the stone wall, with a smile on his mouth, and the breeze blew the hairband on his head, fluttering gently, chic and free: "You can't just look at this, Dingguo, you Think about it, I, Daming, have been fighting life and death with the Tartars for so many years. When did I see thousands of people turn against us? No, maybe not even one person, but today there is, and it has never been It was the Ming army that surrendered to the Tartars, and there is no precedent for the Tartars to surrender to the Ming. What does this mean?"

mean what?Li Dingguo's eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "It means that between the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars, the ice-like unequal power balance no longer exists. The first army to surrender to our front will be There will be a second branch and a third branch. From now on, if Jianzhou slaves want to send people out, they have to think carefully about whether these people will not go back, haha!"

Wang Huan clapped his hands and said: "That's right! Bai Guangen may have been forced to do this, but he did not realize that he made an exceptional precedent! From then on, the Tartars, who were already suspicious of the Han army, Suspicions are bound to deepen! And the Han army will also feel that since generals such as Bai Guangen can do whatever they want, why can't they? As each goes up and down, more and more Han army will be renegade and apostate, except for those who follow the Tartars. If we want to go to the black diehards, most people who pursue selfish interests will take a wait-and-see attitude, fall on both sides of the wall, and will no longer work hard for the Tartars, which is great for us!"

"Take in a Bai Guang'en, there are a large number of Han troops inside, why not do it!" Li Dingguo laughed loudly: "Your Excellency never loses money in business!"

"Send rebels to send these Han troops to Taiyuan, cut off their braids, and let them attack the city." Wang Huan's smile became a little cold: "Since you have done a lot of bad things for the Tatars, you must forgive them, otherwise I will be sorry for them. The vicious Han people!"

After a pause, he continued: "As for Bai Guangen, keep him here, let him write letters and send them everywhere, no matter who he knows or not, as long as he works on the Tartar side, he will send it. I will let the Tartar No peace!"

"My lord, this is a drudgery!" Li Dingguo gave a thumbs up and said, "In this way, how can the suspicious Tartars trust half of the Han people? Don't those Han soldiers who stay in the Tartar camp live like years?"

He looked at the Han army filing in from the city, and suddenly felt a little sympathetic to them. With those dazed faces and frightened minds, he would never have thought that there were two people who looked exactly the same at a height of more than ten feet above their heads. The not-so-ferocious young man had already made a plan to use Yi Jin like extracting their bone marrow and peeling off their skin.

"I wonder what Dorgon's expression is like now?" Wang Huan took out his telescope and looked around: "I really want to take a look."

……

On the other side of the battlefield, Dorgon had already left.

Back in his big tent, the first thing he did was to isolate the entire camp. The camps of the Han army were all adjusted and distributed to every corner of the camp, divided by the camps of the Mongols and the Jurchens. They cannot be connected to each other, and avoid the core of the camp.

The remaining 2000 people under Bai Guangen's command were disarmed without knowing anything, escorted to the front of the battle, and beheaded one by one in front of all the generals of the Han army. The blood stained the ground and merged into a small river.

The severed heads were piled up in the middle of the battlefield, where both the Qing and Ming troops could see them.

Li Guoying, Sun Long and others looked at all this speechlessly, expressionless, not knowing what they were thinking.
