Chapter 331: 300,000 people are disarmed

With Wang Cong'er leading 4,000 cavalry into Beijing amid countless cheers, the basic overall situation of the world has been decided.

Even the gentry stopped resisting.

They are already desperate.

Especially when two days later, after the three infantry brigades and one artillery brigade of the Third Town of the Holy Religious Army marched into Beijing, those red-clothed soldiers with rifles with bayonets on their shoulders dragging cannons and marching in unison completely shocked all the guys who were still unwilling, and such an army could not resist at all.

Since there is no way to resist, then you can only surrender.

Inside the Provisional Imperial Palace of the Qing Dynasty.

"Long live Lord, Prince Li is back!"

Fu Changan hurriedly ran in and shouted.

Yong Ying, who was sitting in the main hall, immediately lit up his eyes, and hurriedly stood up to greet the door, Fu Chang'an and Prince Li Yong'en just entered the door, Yong Ying grabbed Yong'en's shoulder, and couldn't wait to ask: "Tell me quickly, what did the demon say?" ”

Well, Yon is here to ask for surrender.

They don't ask for surrender and there is no other way out, at this time everything is eaten except people, food, horses, everything that can be eaten is gone, and those slaves are either killed and eaten or run away, and now those hungry and red-eyed guys have begun to kill those old and weak, all of them are like hungry wolves, although they don't know the news of reinforcements, but Yongying, who was frightened by this scene, still collapsed instantly. He is a calligrapher who has seen this, the whole has become a beast's nest, and if it goes on like this, maybe even he will have to be eaten, anyway, he has no one to take care of the emperor, even he hasn't eaten much for more than a day, not that no one has sent him food, but he really doesn't dare to eat that thing, and in the end the old housekeeper has the experience to cook a belt to satisfy his hunger, poor Yongying, who has been eating since he was a child, actually thinks that the belt is very delicious.

But the belt is gone!

In the face of hunger, no dignity has been pulled down.

"Hooray, that demon is too deceitful!"

Yon fell to his knees and cried.

"That demon said that we can surrender, but all men, young and old, must be cleansed, he is determined to cut off our roots!"

Then he said.

Yongying and Fu Changan gasped.

"Just like those eunuchs?"

Yongying said in a trembling voice.

"It's not that ruthless, it's just that the two eggs are chopped up like a pig, and they are not all cut."

Yon said.

"That's good, that's good!"

Yongying said with a sigh of relief.

"Huh?!"

Yon was dumbfounded.

"Prince Li, didn't that demon man do that in the south a long time ago? Now that we are desperate, we are begging him to surrender, then this one must be indispensable, as for saying that we are rooted or something, don't think about it anymore, didn't we almost kill the old Zhu family back then? Then Zhu Cihong was more than seventy years old and caught a thousand knives! This is retribution! We slaughtered the old Zhu family back then, and now the demon has wiped us out, this is retribution! Accept your fate! ”

Yong Ying said.

"Hooray, why don't we hold on for a few more days?"

Fu Changan said tangledly.

He's only thirty years old, and he doesn't want to lose those two things so soon.

"You're still waiting for reinforcements? If the reinforcements could have come, they would have come long ago! They haven't come yet, either they haven't come directly, or they've been beaten back, and even if they do, what's the use? Can you beat those tiger and wolf divisions outside? If you still want to persevere, then persevere! I can't hold on anymore, inform the army and the people of the demon's demands, and tell them that I will surrender, as for their own choice, this Qing Dynasty will be considered dead! ”

Yong Ying said with a long sigh.

"Hooray, we can't descend!"

Yongen cried out in mourning.

Yongying took one last look at him, and then walked to the main hall with a lonely look.

Behind him there was a cry.

The next morning.

"Xianzun, come to Xi'an Gate and have a look!"

Shi Xianggu rushed into Yang Feng's bedroom, shouted and ran to the bed, and then a pillow flew out inside, Wang Cong'er, who was riding on Yang Feng's waist, looked at her with fierce eyes, so frightened that Shi Xianggu hurriedly hid behind a cabinet, Yang Feng glanced at her speechlessly, pulled Wang Cong'er down, and then glared at her and shouted: "Why don't you come and wait to get dressed!" ”

"Oh!"

Shi Xianggu stepped forward honestly.

Then, under Wang Cong'er's murderous gaze, he trembled and waited for Xianzun to get dressed.

Wang Cong'er, who has killed countless people on the battlefield, easily used her murderous aura to deter Yang Feng's queen, even if Shi Xianggu is also murderous without blinking, she has to keep her head down in front of her, after all, her little means are really not enough in front of this kind of general who commands thousands of troops and horses and kills from the sea of corpses and blood, just when she was waiting for Yang Feng to get dressed, Wang Cong'er also returned to normal, got dressed herself, glared at Shi Xianggu hatefully and said: "If there is nothing good, see how I clean you up!" ”

After they tidied up a little, they went out with Shi Xianggu, got on the horse and went straight to Xi'an Gate, and when they arrived at Xi'an Gate, the entire west city wall of the imperial city was already densely packed with people, and Yang Feng and the three of them climbed the city wall in a bowing sound.

"You're in luck!"

Looking at the scene outside, Wang Cong'er said to Shi Xianggu.

On the street outside the Xi'an Gate, there are hundreds of banner people kneeling, all of them are Manchu princes and ministers, one by one shirtless on a cold day, their hands tied behind their backs and kowtowing to the ground, the front is Yongying, he is the same as his own ministers, shirtless hands tied behind his back and trembling and kneeling in the cold wind, and on the street behind them, a group of Qing soldiers are silently throwing all kinds of weapons into a pile, and then honestly kneeling on both sides of the street, behind them more old and weak women and children came out and knelt on the ground.

"I'm still playing with meat and noodles! Why didn't you bring a sheep? ”

Yang Feng said with a smile.

Poor Yongying, if there were still sheep, he wouldn't surrender.

"Immortal Venerable, how to deal with it?"

Wang Cong'er asked.

"Order all the troops to enter the city, take all the men to the Tongzhou camp, they should be given food and they should be eaten, these people will be of great use in the future, don't let them starve to death, as for the women to stay in the city, arrange for another team of people to occupy the various official offices, especially the warehouses where the goods are stored, and then copy several royal palaces, especially the Heshen family. Don't copy those messy things, only silver and gold, and when you are done, open the gates of the city, and let the rebels take everything inside, including the women of the banner people, since I have promised them, I must fulfill my promise, you maintain good order, it is forbidden to kill each other for the sake of stealing things, and those who dare to disobey the order will be killed! ”

Yang Feng said.

"300,000 people are disarmed, and none of them are men!"

Suddenly, there was a mournful cry from below.

Yang Feng looked at the voice unexpectedly.

And then, and then nothing happened!

"I thought somebody would come forward and give me a shot!"

He laughed.

There was immediately laughter on both sides.

Obviously, these banner men no longer have any courage to resist, even if they know that surrendering will cut their eggs, they do not dare to resist, these people silently knelt outside.

Immediately after Wang Cong'er commanded four infantry brigades and a cavalry brigade in the third town, there was also the newly formed ninth town, that is, Lin Qing and others and the elite selected from the righteous army, these people were organized into the ninth town, but there were few flintlock guns, and the vast majority of them were arquebuses and spears, and the soldiers of these two towns entered the inner city, and all the men in the banner people, regardless of age or young, were taken away and taken to Tongzhou, where the Tongzhou camp could be used as a concentration camp for them, anyway, these people had nowhere to run if they wanted to, and then operated on there, After the operation, he was escorted directly to Nanjing.

As for the women who remained in the city.

Those banner people still did not resist, and honestly let the soldiers of the Holy Sect escort them away, and then each received a big white steamed bun at the gate of Chaoyang, and walked towards Tongzhou while gnawing greedily.

These are already starving to the point that they don't have any courage, although they want to cut the eggs, but it's better than starving to death, in the final analysis, in the face of thunderous hunger, it's not just the cry of conscience like a mosquito, in fact, many things are like this, unless they are real heroes, it's difficult to resist the most instinctive impact of human beings, but it's clear that these guys who have been abandoned for hundreds of years are not heroes.

In this way, under the gaze of Yang Feng on the Xi'an Gate, the Holy Sect Army who entered the inner city quickly escorted away all the men among the banner people, and then gave steamed buns to the women who were also hungry and dying in the city, and quickly controlled the official office separately, and at the same time entered the mansions of those major princes and nobles to copy gold and silver, and all other things were left, of course, there were soldiers who secretly left some souvenirs as long as it was not too obvious, this one turned a blind eye.

For example, it is impossible for others to know about jewelry.

In fact, Yang Feng didn't want the jewelry to let those soldiers take this, but all the remaining things and banner women were used to satisfy those rebels, although the latter did not siege the city, but they also contributed a lot to the siege.

In short, this is how the raid began.

And the copied gold and silver were directly transported into the palace as a deposit for the Imperial Bank, Yang Feng printed money during this time, and urgently needed such precious metals to mint gold and silver coins, he had already copied a lot in the palace, plus this copy, the vault of the Imperial Bank may be full, after all, there is still a treasure house like the He Shen family.

But all he wanted was gold and silver.

Nothing else was of use to him, including the jewels.

Jewels cannot be used to mint coins.

Wang Cong'er personally commanded this large-scale raid, and by the evening of the same day, gold and silver worth more than 100 million taels of silver were sent to the palace, and it is conceivable how much wealth these bannermen, princes and nobles have looted in the past one hundred and fifty years, and when all these things entered the palace, all the gates of the inner city of Beijing were opened, and the rebels who had been waiting impatiently outside swarmed in, and began their carnival in this once unattainable city. And Immortal Venerable also gave them enough time to do what they wanted.

Ten days.
