Chapter 294: Go back to Daming

There is no advantage or disadvantage in hand-to-hand combat, you can live by hacking the enemy on the opposite side, the weapons of both sides are similar, and the bows and arrows have lost their effectiveness, which is the time to test the combat effectiveness of the two armies.

The defenders at the head of the city are good to say, if they can't win, they will retreat to the city at most, and the besieging army will not have this kind of treatment, if they lose, they will have to let people push down the stairs alive, and the city wall is a few zhang high, and the light will be broken hands and feet, and the heavy life will be gone, so the besieging side of the city seems to be more aggressive.

The two sides fought fiercely for half an hour, and there was no sign of victory or defeat, Yuan Zonghao glanced at Cheng Xiaolian: "Your Highness, let's send someone up again, if we continue to fight like this for a while, it will be dark, and we will have to retreat." ”

Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "Send people to attack other city gates, there won't be too many defenders in the city, they can't hold it." ”

There are indeed not many defenders in the city, there is Hanzhong in front and Yunnan in the back, Wang Pingfan doesn't think there will be any situation in Sichuan at all, at most it is a bit of a bandit rebellion, and it can't become a climate, so the number of people left behind is not very large.

As Cheng Xiaolian thought, there were indeed not enough defenders in Chengdu City, so when the four city gates were attacked together, the guards finally began to rout, Hu Chengba could only manage one city gate, not four city gates, and the other city gates were still demoralized, so soon Cheng Xiaolian's soldiers entered the city.

After learning that the other three city gates were lost, even if Hu Chengba was in charge, his soldiers began to rout, and there was no possibility of winning this battle, and all they wanted was to be able to save their lives.

Finally, before dark, the army defeated the city of Chengdu, Hu Chengba was killed in battle, and most of the other surviving soldiers chose to surrender.

Cheng Xiaolian still felt a little pity for Hu Chengba's death, he originally wanted to take this person for his own use, who knew that he was so upright and unyielding, and would rather die in battle than put down the weapon in his hand. However, it can be regarded as the fulfillment of his lifelong fame, although many brothers died at his hands, but Cheng Xiaolian still decided to bury him.

He wants to tell his soldiers subtly that as long as you fight bravely, even the enemy will admire your integrity, and greed for life and fear of death will not end well.

So those officials who chose to surrender as soon as the army entered the city, Cheng Xiaolian did not let any of them go, all of them were dismissed from their official positions, and they stayed by Lawson's side to do chores, anyway, Lawson had no intention of surrendering, but Lawson had no possibility of escaping, put these people in front of Lawson, let them remember Lawson's face, so as not to turn back and hide Lawson again.

Rosen was very distressed, he didn't want to stay for a long time, but this time it's good, Cheng Xiaolian sent all his subordinates over, and Chengdu also beat him, and he, the governor of Sichuan, was finally justified.

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Xiaolian immediately divided his troops into two routes, one with Rosen's documents to recover the rest of Sichuan, and the other was to plot the city in the north, because he knew that in the near future, Wang Pingfan would definitely send a large army to come, and as for Wu Sangui's side, even if he could really send people, it would be a few months later.

However, the news that Jinyiwei came back still surprised Cheng Xiaolian, and no trace of the army has been found in Sichuan. He could only secretly rejoice that Wang Pingfan's side must be in trouble, and he hadn't had time to transfer people back.

So he had more time and immediately began to stabilize the people's hearts. He knew that ordinary people would not care about who was the emperor, and whoever was the emperor would have to farm, they only cared about whether they could eat enough.

Fortunately, Cheng Xiaolian has accumulated a lot of money and food in Myanmar, and there is no problem in maintaining the army for a year. There are many ownerless fiefs in Sichuan, and the families of his subordinates and soldiers have no one to divide ten acres of land, and then start farming, even if Cheng Xiaolian ordered to exempt Sichuan from taxes for half a year. That is, in the past six months, as long as it is something you grow, the government will not want a penny.

Of course, Cheng Xiaolian also wants to be very heroic and exempt from taxes for one year, but he doesn't have so much money and food, and there are no natural disasters in Sichuan, and the people don't need to recover, all they need to do now is to farm with peace of mind.

As soon as they heard that Sichuan was exempted from paying taxes for half a year, they quickly plowed the grain in the field and opened up new land from the wasteland.

The people's thinking is very simple, only when there is food at home can they not panic, they are not afraid to get up early and work hard, as long as the food belongs to them in the end.

And the banner of the Ming Dynasty has also spread to Jiangnan and other places, many teachers who were originally teaching in the mountains and wilderness have begun to pack their bags, and the literati who are fond of the river have also put down the leisure in their hands and began to march towards Sichuan, they have only one belief in their hearts, go back to the Ming Dynasty.

Although these people do not have any official positions, they are very famous, most of them are Confucians, and as soon as these people move, many scholars in Jiangnan began to follow. Of course Kangxi knows the skills of these people, so although they secretly oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, Kangxi still does not dare to do it to them easily, Kangxi wants to win the hearts of Jiangnan scholars, so he can't move them.

Those scholars in the south of the Yangtze River also felt that the military disaster had reached Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and they would be implicated here, they did not like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but also did not like Wu Sangui, so they decided to go thousands of miles to find the Ming Dynasty, Sichuan has been the country of abundance since ancient times, and it is feasible to move the family.

And these people don't know what the Ming Dynasty has developed into, how many people there are, and whether they can successfully restore the country, but they just stubbornly insist that they are the remnants of the Ming Dynasty and must live and die with the Ming Dynasty.

According to historical records, none of the three major Confucians in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties became an official of the Manchu Dynasty, and Wang Fuzhi, one of the three major Confucians, refused to accept the food and clothing of Qing Dynasty officials in his poverty and illness, and even wrote a poem saying: Qingfeng deliberately makes it difficult for me to stay, and Mingyue has no intention of taking care of himself. This kind of poetry was in the Kangxi Dynasty, which had just emerged in the literal prison, and Kangxi didn't dare to do anything to him. You can see their influence.

Wu Sangui was also furious after learning the news, but after the anger, there was only a sigh, when the Qing Dynasty ruled the world, he was unwilling to do anything to these people, if he Wu Sangui did it, it would be against the Jiangnan Shi clan, and then Wu Sangui's reputation would be more stinky than dung. He shook his head helplessly: "The Ming Dynasty has been dead for thirty years, why are these people dead." ”

Xia Guoxiang could only smile bitterly: "These literati are all brainless, let's not mess with them." He was also worried that Wu Sangui would kill people in a fit of rage.

Wu Sangui laughed: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to them, besides, these people may not be able to help when they get there." ”
