323 Whatever you swallow, you will spit it out to Lao Tzu

(Today's chapter is presented.,Subscribe to the whoop.,Sad.,Please subscribe!!) ）

The three heralds walked up to Abatai and knelt down in unison.

Abatai nodded, his face blushed, and he said in a deep voice: "Get up, what order did the general ask you to convey?" ”

"Lord Belle, Prince Heshuorui has an order, ordering you to immediately lead your troops to Julu to encircle and annihilate the Ming army led by Lu Xiangsheng, there must be no mistake."

"What? You surrounded Lu Xiangsheng's department? ”

Abatai was also taken aback, for the Tartars, Lu Xiangsheng was like the second Yuan Chonghuan, and he was the Tartars' henchmen.

Compared with Li Zixiao, who has not yet grown up, there is no doubt that eliminating Lu Xiangsheng at this time is more attractive to Tartar.

The generals of the Tartar soldiers, who had been thinking about retiring for a long time, stood up again after hearing the news and persuaded Abatai: "Rao Yu Belle, since Prince Rui has sent a military order, let's carry it out."

If we can really eliminate Lu Xiangsheng and his subordinates, we can catch up with us to take down a few Daming cities! ”

While persuading Abatai, the generals were very happy in their hearts, and now they could finally withdraw from the army justifiably.

Looking at the eager eyes of the generals, Abatai sighed secretly in his heart, he knew that these generals with blue flags had been chilled by the Ming general named Li Zixiao at the head of the city.

There was no point in forcibly ordering them to attack the city now, and it was such a suitable step that Abatai needed.

In the end, Abatai had no choice but to go downhill on the donkey, and after a long sigh, he gave an order with some unwillingness: "Order, retreat!" ”

With Abatai's order, the sound of gongs rang out, and the Tartar soldiers who were originally densely packed in front of Shunde City retreated like a tide.

Seeing that the Tartar soldiers had really retreated, the Ming troops on the city wall cheered in unison: "The Tartars are going to retreat, and we are victorious." ”

Javin, who didn't know when, also came to the city wall again, and cheered with all the soldiers.

He came to Li Zixiao's side excitedly, and shouted incoherently: "General Li, the Tartars have withdrawn, thank God, the Tartars have really retreated, and Shunde has defended." ”

Li Zixiao looked at the happy and incoherent Shunde prefect, smiled slightly, and did not speak, but just watched the Tartar soldiers outside the city withdraw in an orderly manner, without the slightest sign of rout.

Watching the Tatar soldiers calmly withdraw, Li Zixiao sighed in his heart and sighed in his heart.

Now is the stage of the rise of the Tartar national power, although the offensive failed, but the withdrawal of troops is still orderly, compared to the Ming army in this period, it is really much stronger.

When Li Zixiao was looking out, he found that several Tartar soldiers had come to the city wall under the cover of several large shields.

A Tartar soldier cautiously stretched out his head to his shield and shouted loudly towards the city gate: "Listen to the Ming generals in the city, in order to avoid further casualties among the soldiers on both sides, my Rao Yu Belle of the Qing Dynasty has decided to withdraw his troops from Shunde Mansion.

But I hope that you can let us collect the remains of those warriors who died in battle, and also show the benevolence and righteousness of your generals. ”

Hearing what the Tartars under the city said, Li Zixiao on the city wall sneered: "Aren't you Tartars known as invincible soldiers? Now it's like a cannon if you can't hit it, run away, why do you say it sounds so good!

But I'm not here to come and go, and it's okay to take back the bodies of your soldiers, but you have to leave something behind! ”

Holding back his anger, the Tartar soldier asked, "What do you want?" ”

"What we want is very simple, you just need to keep the people and property in your camp, and we will let you come and collect the corpses.

By the way, we can also help you drop the corpses piled up on the southern wall! What you swallow, all you swallow will be spit out by Lao Tzu. ”

As soon as Li Zixiao's words came out, everyone was shocked.

Jia Wenru hurriedly said: "General Li, the Tartars are willing to withdraw their troops, thank God, why do you still have to make conditions with them?" ”

"Now they have a request for us, why can't we tell them the conditions, are you willing to see our Ming people and property easily taken away by those Tartars?

Don't worry, Jia Zhifu, you watch, the Tartars will agree, if they don't agree, let's cut off the heads of these thousands of Tartars and take them to the court to ask for credit. ”

"Well, everything is subject to General Li's arrangement."

In fact, Jia Wenru really coveted the heads of thousands of Tartars, if this was offered to the imperial court, he would be enough to be promoted to the third level.

The Tartar soldiers outside the city, after listening to Li Zixiao's words, did not dare to stay for a long time, and quickly retreated, reporting Li Zixiao's words to Abatai.

After listening to the return of the retreating Tartar, Abatai had a gloomy face and did not speak, but a Jialazhangjing next to him jumped up.

"What, those Ming dogs want us to return all the people and property of the Ming Kingdom that we have stolen? Don't!

These grams are all our Qing warriors, desperately snatched up, and will never return things to them. ”

It's just that the words of the first to jump out of Jialazhangjing did not get a response from the other Tartar generals, and everyone stared at Abatai, waiting for him to make a final decision.

In the end, Abatai sighed softly, waved his hand weakly, and said, "Forget it, return it to them, return it to them, just because we haven't been to Shunde this time." ”

"Lord Belle, this is thousands of young men and women, if we are escorted back to Shengjing, then our Zhenglan Banner will be thousands more slaves, is it so easy to let go?

And those belongings, worth more than 100,000 taels of silver! ”

"Dog minion, didn't you hear me?"

Abatai was furious and roared at the Alajang, "If you abandon these, can you go up and snatch down the remains of thousands of warriors?"

Or do you want to keep all the corpses of these thousands of warriors, so that the Ming army in the city can cut off their heads and take them to ask for merit? ”

"This ......"

After hearing this, the Tartar Jialazhangjing was also speechless, lowered his head, and stopped talking like a frosted eggplant.

If the Ming army is really allowed to cut off thousands of Tartar heads, not to mention how much damage it will do to the momentum of the Qing army, which has won consecutive victories at this time.

Just after they returned to Shengjing, the clansmen who died in their banner, if they knew that they allowed the corpses of thousands of warriors to stay under the city of Shunde, and the heads were cut off by the Ming army.

Those clansmen in their banner have to find them desperately, and now everyone has not spoken, and he is the only one who opposes it, and those clansmen will not tear him alive when the time comes!

Soon, the Tartar soldier turned back and told Li Zixiao on the city wall.

He said that they had agreed to his terms, and that they were willing to return to them all the more than 6,000 people in their camp, as well as the goods they had just seized.

Soon after, groups of people captured by the Tartars came to the outside of Shunde under the drive of the Tartar soldiers.

Behind the people, the Tartar soldier shouted, "We have sent the people, and you should let us collect the bodies of the fallen soldiers." ”

Li Zixiao nodded, and asked dozens of soldiers to get down from the hanging basket of the city wall, and guide the people to the city gate on the other side.

When the people knew that they had been rescued, they all wept with joy and ran with the white dragon soldiers to the east gate.

"Now you can get us to rein in the corpses, right? And the corpses of our warriors on the walls, which you promised to give back to us. ”

The Tartar soldier asked loudly.

"Don't worry, we will keep our word, and when you return to the people, you can send a small number of soldiers to the city to collect the corpses under the city.

When you have returned the plunder, we will throw down the corpses of the city walls to you. ”

Li Zixiao responded with a smile.

At this time, Li Zixiao was like a calculating rich man, unwilling to eat at all, looking at Jia Wenru and Chen Luo on the city wall, he secretly smiled bitterly.

It is estimated that there are probably not a few generals in the entire Ming Dynasty who dare to bargain with the Tartars like this, and even speak intimidating.

"General Li rest assured, our Great Qing Kingdom has always been about credibility."

The Tartar gritted his teeth and waved his hand again, and more than a hundred Tartar soldiers pressed dozens of carts to the city, and then went to collect the Tartar corpses under the city.

The Tartar soldier shouted to the city wall: "General Li, your things are here, can you fulfill your promise now?" ”

Li Zixiao tilted his head, and several White Dragon Army sergeants who had been waiting outside the city wall for a long time stepped forward to open the boxes on several cars, and after carefully looking through them for a while, they turned back to Li Zixiao on the city head and nodded.

Li Zixiao waved his hand lightly and said, "Maybe you still have a lot of secrets, but Lord Ben has a lot of them, and he doesn't care so much about you, you can bring those dead people back." ”

As soon as Li Zixiao's words came out, this Tartar soldier was almost vomited blood like their main general, Abatai.

Nima's, we killed 2,000 people on this trip, but we didn't take Shunde City, we didn't even catch a single hair, and now we have to return all the people and property we have plundered along the way to you.

You are still talking about cool things on it, it's just infuriating!

After a while, under Li Zixiao's order, the city gate slowly opened, and Quartz had already let Quartz carry down the Tartar corpses on the city wall, hit several large carts, and now push them out of the city.

On the city wall, the White Dragon Army was under the watchful eye of rows of outward-facing bird commanders and the muzzles of more than a dozen black hole tiger squat cannons.

Dozens of Tartar auxiliaries also hurried outside the city to transport the bodies of the dead Tartars outside the city.

Soon the Tartar soldiers collected the corpses of their own dead soldiers.

Their trumpets sounded one after another, and they were seen arrayed in a procession, and at last they were united into a large area, and they rode together and slowly pulled out of the camp.

After experiencing these two victories against the Tartars, let the White Dragon soldiers also know that the Tartars are nothing more than this, they are not invincible, and they can also be defeated.

The faint sense of fear that I heard in my body when I heard the Tartar soldiers in my body before has long since disappeared without a trace, which is also the result that Li Zixiao wants.

Looking at the distant figure of the Tartar soldiers, Li Zixiao's face was grim, and he said in a low voice: "Calculate the time, it's almost time." ”

After the Tartar soldiers withdrew, the city of Shunde fell into a joyful aftermath that night, and the soldiers and civilians of Shunde Mansion were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

The prefect Jia Wenru also prepared to hold a banquet in his mansion to entertain Li Zixiao and the generals of the White Dragon Army.

But Li Zixiao even reorganized his soldiers and horses, leaving the wounded soldiers to recuperate in Shunde Mansion, ready to leave overnight.

"General Li, why did you leave in such a hurry, now that the Tartars have been beaten away, I plan to set up a banquet to thank the general!"

"Governor Jia, forgive Li for not being able to attend the banquet, we have to go north overnight and rush to King Qin in the capital."

Li Zixiao lied.

"General Li is really Yue Fei alive, loyal and courageous, loyal to the saint, so the official really doesn't dare to keep the general anymore."

"It's a long time coming, and there will be opportunities in the future. In addition, Ben General also wanted to trouble Jia Zhifu with some things. ”

"General, please."

"I have five hundred wounded soldiers under my command, and I can't follow the army north, so I need to stay in Shunde City to recuperate, and I need Lord Jia to make proper arrangements for them.

Give them the best herbs to treat, and when I return to the division with the Tartars, I will take the wounded soldiers with me. ”

"What's this? Of course you can, this official should be duty-bound, compare these soldiers to defend Shunde and suffer injuries, but it's just ...... in my treasury"

In the end, Jia Wenru looked embarrassed, making Chen Luo on the side secretly shake his head.

Li Zixiao was also a little disappointed Jia Wenru, of course he knew why he was so hesitant, because the treasury had no money, and it would cost a lot of silver to take care of five hundred wounded soldiers.

"Jia Zhifu, I will divide half of the property left by the Tartars today to the soldiers who fought bloodily in Shunde to compensate the soldiers who died in battle.

The rest will be used as military salaries, what do you think? Li Zixiao took the initiative to say.

As soon as he heard the silver, Jia Wenru's eyes lit up, and his eyes narrowed into a slit, and the belongings left by the Tartar today had already been summed up by someone, and they were worth at least 150,000 or 60,000 taels of silver.

They didn't expect Li Zixiao to leave half of it for them, and they were so happy that they only expected to let Li Zixiao leave a third.

The only 500 wounded soldiers left by Li Zixiao can spend as much silver as they can spend, as for the soldiers and civilians of Shunde who died in battle, they can just give them some silver, and they can send it away.

In the end, there will be a lot of silver left, and his pockets will be enlarged.

At this time, Jia Wenru said happily: "General Li, rest assured, this official will definitely distribute all this silver to the families of those fallen soldiers."

For the 500 wounded soldiers left behind by your army, I will definitely find the best doctor in the city and use the best medicine to make them recover as soon as possible. ”

Li Zixiao smiled faintly, he had already guessed that it would be like this, and continued to ask: "Lord Jia, I remember to ask Lord Jia to raise grain and grass for us, there is not much grain and grass in our army, I don't know ......"

As soon as he received the benefits from others, Jia Wenru agreed very happily: "No problem, the official has already asked people to prepare 500 stone of grain for you, and ensure that you can go to the capital with enough food and drink." ”

"Then thank you, Lord Jia!"

Seeing Jia Wenru so refreshing, although Li Zixiao knew that it was the credit of the silver, he still thanked him.

Half an hour later, Li Zixiao led less than 2,000 soldiers and horses to leave Shunde City, braved the vast night, went north and then went east.

In this battle during the day, the White Dragon Army and the Shunde army and civilians repelled the siege of the Tartars, killing and wounding nearly 3,000 Tartars in total, of which nearly 2,000 were killed in the battle alone.

However, the White Dragon Army and the Shunde military and civilians also paid a lot of casualties, of which more than 1,500 Shunde soldiers and civilians were killed and more than 500 were injured.

Most of them came from the South City Gate, and so did the casualties of the White Dragon Army, most of which were killed and wounded in the fierce battle on the South City Wall.

According to statistics after the war, the White Dragon Army lost more than 880 soldiers in this battle, and more than 600 people were slightly injured and seriously wounded.

With the same difference in strength, the defense of the city cost such heavy casualties, and the battle losses between them and the Tartars were already more than one to one.

There were more dead and wounded than those who besieged the city, which also made Li Zixiao speechless for a while.

It was really that the strength of those Shunde officers and soldiers and young men was too poor, and in the battle of the southern city wall, five Shunde officers and soldiers fought a Tartar soldier, but they couldn't take it for a long time, and finally two people were killed.

If there were 5,000 White Dragon troops in Shunde City today, Li Zixiao would dare to say that even if the more than 7,000 Tartar soldiers outside the city fought to the last moment, the last person.

They don't want to take Shunde City, the casualty ratio they pay will definitely not be one to one.

Fortunately, there is the White Dragon Army today, otherwise Shunde City will definitely not be able to be saved, and if the Tartars finally see that they can't attract Lu Xiangsheng, they will definitely break the city and loot it.

In the end, the 500 wounded soldiers left by Li Zixiao were basically unable to go to the battlefield to fight.

As for the more than 100 wounded soldiers who were bruised and bruised, he took them all away, and there was a big war to be fought next, and he was short of troops.
