Chapter 198: Sacrifice of Prisoners

Yang Si Sun Chi approached Ren Jing's side, beat it happily, and said with a smile: "Old man, why bother with this kind of life." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Ren Jing smiled slightly and said, "There is a clear distinction between the top and bottom in the army, and the etiquette cannot be wasted." ”

Yang Sisun laughed and said, "After this big victory, your old man still ran to the division command?" I heard that your brother Ren Mu also did well in the Thirteen Mountains, and now he is also a battalion-level commander. ”

"My brother is quite conscientious, and his martial arts are also very good, so he happens to be used over there."

Yang Sisun restrained his smile, nodded his chin at the tall Mongolian man not far away, and said, "He is Chotu Khan?" ”

"That's right." Ren Jing nodded and said, "The biggest takeaway from this trip." ”

"Your Excellency received your secret report, and only a few of us were notified to prepare." Yang Sisun showed a smile on his face and said: "Today, I want to give the Mongols, as well as those tribes in the forest, the Balhu people, the Oroqen tribes on the other side of the Krulun River, the Sauron people, and the Hanhai Mongolians, the lamas and living Buddhas in various places, as well as the Han merchants in Zhangjiakou and Qingcheng, to give these people a good shocking education...... Well, that's what adults are saying. ”

Ren Jing and the others all looked at each other, and each saw the excitement of their companions.

This time the decision was clearly quite wise and correct.

Originally, they should have used the red flag to report the victory as soon as they won the battle, with great fanfare, but Ren Jing and others thought that it was more appropriate to report the secret report first, and now it seems that the decision to report the secret report is more wise, and Zhang Han is obviously more satisfied.

The drums of the tower were louder, and the dragoons of the 7th Regiment separated the avenue from the pasture, and were also on guard on both sides of the gate, and a few miles away a large clearing had been fenced out, and the Mongols did not know what Hutchison was up to, which was originally a temporary camp for these prisoners.

There were faint cheers in the city, thinking that Zhang Han should have come out of the official residence with people and rushed to the side of the city tower.

"This is a prisoner sacrifice ceremony." Yang Sisun smiled and said: "Recently, I watched the Daming Huidian once, and I felt about the same. ”

"Obediently," Ren Jing said, "The noon gate prisoner ceremony?" ”

"Pretty much." Yang Sisun said: "It's just that there is not too much red tape, you know that adults don't like to waste time." ”

"I think we're almost ready here." Xia Xiping somehow couldn't get used to Yang Sisun's appearance full of spring breeze, he frowned and said, "Please also ask the division commander to tell us the details." ”

"I don't believe you don't." Yang Sisun glanced at Xia Xiping and said with a smile: "Don't have sympathy for these people, first convince him, and then pity him, the adults said that mercy is the privilege of the strong, if you are not as strong as them, now it is time to beg them to have mercy on you." ”

Xia Xiping was silent, Yang Sisun looked around, and said with a smile: "I have to go and say a few words to the Great Khan, do you want to come over?" ”

……

The drumming on the tower stopped, and Asarran's eyes were full of fear, and all around him were soldiers in bright armor, just like the soldiers who had defeated them, with muskets, spears, daggers, shields, bright breastplates, indifferent eyes, tall horses, strong horses, looking at them as if they were looking at a swarm of ants.

I never thought I would be treated like this, and I never thought that I would end up like this.

The contrast and the frightening unknown struck the boy and made him tremble.

His father Khan also seemed to be twenty years old, and the high-ranking military attache who was riding on a horse just now condescendingly announced some matters of attention, such as tying thorns on his back, kneeling down to Zhang Han under the city tower naked, asking for forgiveness, and then he would be forgiven, otherwise he would face the fate of being beheaded. The tribes will also be treated harshly, and a large number of people will be killed, and only a few will be spared.

The lives of most of the tribesmen were in an instant, but the Tu Khan wanted to exchange his dignity for the lives of himself and the herdsmen of the tribe, and of course, their grassland pastures, and everything that was originally could be slowly taken back.

It was good that the vanquished would have a choice, and the high-ranking officer surnamed Yang told them rather arrogantly that he had seen Bu Lost Rabbit Khan, and now this Mongol Khan had died in the war with He Yusheng, and he had also seen Fried Flower Taiji, this Great Taiji, who was not inferior to Bu Lost Rabbit Khan, was now supported by Hutchison in Qingcheng, and he had also seen Ombuhong, the new Tumut Khan and the King of Shunyi, who were now also supported in Qingcheng. He has also seen the Jurchen Mandate of Heaven Khan, has seen Horqin Khan Obadaiji, all the Mongols and Jurchen Khan, he has almost seen them, although the Khan is called Khan, in the final analysis, it is only the Taiji of the Transkhalkha section, compared to the crowned King of Shunyi, the Mandate of Heaven Khan who was at war with the Ming Dynasty, and the serious Mongolian Khan Lin Dan Khan, what is he worth.

Perhaps the officer's words with the surname Yang really moved his father's Khan, and Asarlan saw his father's originally straight back fall again.

Before that, perhaps the dignity of a Great Khan made his father Khan determined to act like a hero even if he was going to die, but all his hope and dignity were trampled on by a group of merchant officers.

Resentment and fear are mixed, but it's finally about to begin.

The captives found that there was a large crowd at the head of the city, unlike the soldiers they had always seen wearing red or gray military robes, most of the Ming people at the head of the city were only wearing round-necked robes, or green, or blue, or purple, these were all civilian officials with Yusheng, their robes fit very well, longer than military robes, and the cuffs were not wide, but they were wider than the arrow sleeves, compared to the high-spirited soldiers, these civilian officials were more restrained and reserved, but no matter what, they accompanied Zhang Han to the city tower, And not the soldiers.

In addition to the officials, more people who were invited to the castle tower were qualified merchants.

Ma Chaoren, Jiang Dalin, Li Dayong and others from Datong, as well as Wang Datong, Ma Chaowen and other businessmen from Zhangjiakou, of course, Zhang Ziming and Fu Qingming from Qingcheng.

These Han merchants were full of joy, they had received the news, and sent their henchmen out of the city to check, although in a short time, but those quite clever henchmen had already done a good job, the news spread ten or ten hundreds, and when these merchants came out to meet, the city was almost ten thousand people in the middle of the road, many Hutchison people were quite experienced, they ran to Zhang Han's official residence and waited, and when Zhang Han went out under the escort of the secret service, everyone's ears were going to be deaf...... Everyone was shouting and cheering, expressing their joy to the person they respected and admired the most.

The atmosphere in the city has been quite oppressive recently, and many people feel that maybe Zhang Han has made a mistake this time, and the rash use of troops may lead to defeat, and the best result is to defeat the enemy, but there is no way to achieve real victory.

The military is connected, all the plans of the military division will be disrupted, and even those Mongols seem to be a little arrogant when they enter the city recently, if they are really caught in the war against the Chotu Khan, the happiest must be these Mongols in Mobei.

At this time, the good news came, everything came out, the Hutchison soldiers and civilians in the city were happy, and the Han merchants in the mouth and the Han merchants in Qingcheng were also extremely excited.

Everyone was smiling and everyone was agreeing, but unfortunately no one in the city prepared firecrackers, otherwise they would have to wait until dark to enjoy themselves.

While speaking, the Russians also rushed over from Beicheng, they tried their best to stay calm, and some people wanted to squeeze a smile on their faces, but how embarrassing that smile looked, everyone knew that what these old Maozi wanted was to win in chaos, and it was best to be stuck in the quagmire, so that they could mediate, so that they could obtain higher interests, and such a result could be obtained from the superficial analysis, and the deeper consideration would definitely not be known by ordinary people, but this did not prevent the Han businessmen from looking at these somewhat unhappy Russians with funny eyes.

Petrin was just unhappy, this matter was not his plan at the moment, it was unreliable to wait for the pie to fall from the sky, and he didn't put all his hopes on the defeat of Hutchison's merchant army, but Madoff and Skif and others were quite disappointed, they were not only disappointed, but even angry.

A plan is all in vain, and there is not a single smooth time in dealing with Zhang Han, which of course makes all the Russians very frustrated, Petrin is okay, he didn't have much hope in the first place, and for Madov and Skev and others, this kind of outright sense of failure is not common, especially Shchev and others, who came all the way from the Siberian Khanate, and only dealt with the Buryat Mongols in Tomsk and the newly repaired Irkutsk area, where victory and honor were too easy to obtain, As a result, they become less able to accept failure.

"I dare say they caught some herders at the border." Madov suppressed his voice, the eyes of the two oxen were full of anger, his voice was always high-pitched and rough, and he lowered it like a duck with its neck pinched, and he said indignantly: "It must be so, they went around the border area for about ten days, and finally caught some herdsmen and came back to announce the victory." ”

Scheev's gloomy face changed suddenly, and he thought that this was also quite possible, in fact, some Russian pioneer nobles also did this sometimes in order to ask Moscow for credit and further support, and sometimes the announcement of a great victory would encourage more pioneer nobles to come, so that it was easy to turn a fake victory into a real one.

"Will they really fake the good news?" Schiff turned to ask Petrin.

Petrin said: "Gentlemen, first of all, I think it is unlikely that such a big disturbance is fake, and in addition, your understanding of the merchant army and Zhang Han is still in the stage of imagination......

A group of Russians did not want to hear such words, but they did not argue with Petrin, they had reached the city gate, the city gate was wide open, and they could only see countless cavalrymen in cuirassiers holding firearms on guard, countless cuirassiers, the Russians only had this opinion, everywhere there were bright and dazzling cuirass, everywhere there were well-made firearms with bayonets on them, the soldiers were neatly arranged, their faces were solemn, and the officers rode around and made a posture of guard.
