Wang Xiuchu, a survivor of the tragic massacre in Yangzhou, who personally experienced the tragic massacre in Yangzhou, made this account: "There were fires all around the city, and there were more than ten places near and countless people from afar. The red light is like thunder and lightning, and the sound of divination is endless. I faintly heard the sound of the blow, and the mourning was intermittent and miserable.

The women tied their necks with long ropes, and they were as tired as beads, and they were covered in mud one step at a time. There are babies all over the ground, or lined with horses' hooves, or human feet, the liver and brain are smeared on the ground, and the crying is full of wilderness. Walk a ditch and a place, pile up corpses and store them, pillow hands and feet, blood into the water and blue ochre, turn into five colors, and the pond is flat.

The sound of killing is everywhere, where the knife ring rings, the shouting is chaotic, and there are dozens or more than 100 people begging for their lives in unison; In the event of a death, no matter how many or few people in the south, they all bowed their heads and bowed, leading their necks to be stabbed, and none of them dared to escape.

As for the children, they are crying and screaming, not to mention it. At noon on the sun, the more you kill and plunder, the more corpses accumulate, and the smell is unpleasant to your ears and unbearable to see. ”

The Qing Manchu Tartars committed such a heinous crime in Yangzhou and slaughtered Yangzhou, except for the Tartars' animal nature, barbarism and cruelty. The more important reason can be seen from the edict of Duoduo's "Edict to Civil and Military Officials in Nanjing and Other Places":

"Yesterday, the soldiers arrived in Viyan, and the officials, soldiers, and civilians in the city were fortified. Yu regretted the lives of the people, could not bear to increase the troops, first told the blessings and woes, and after a delay of several days, the officials finally disobeyed. Then the city was besieged and slaughtered, and his wife was taken prisoner. It is the original intention of not giving, and it is a last resort. After that, the soldiers were everywhere, and the officials, soldiers and civilians resisted and did not surrender. ”

In this edict, Duoduo claimed that the slaughter of the city was not his intention, but that it was because Yangzhou did not surrender that he had to do it.

Weishenme said that he had no choice, and Duoduo also explained his "bitterness", that is, he was afraid that other cities would resist like Yangzhou, so I wanted to slaughter the city, so that you can learn from Weiyang. Let's weigh whether we want to resist our Qing army.

Duoduo killed the chicken to show the monkey that it did have a good effect, and Nanjing and other cities were so frightened that they opened their doors and surrendered one after another. However, the order to shave the head immediately aroused the strong resistance of the people in the south of the Yangtze River, and the wave of resistance to the Qing Dynasty surged.

Although Duoduo was eight or nine years younger than Azig, he was a little more ruthless than the brutal and unscrupulous Azig;

In the face of the surging tide of resistance to the Qing Dynasty, Duoduo found that the results of the massacre in Yangzhou were not as good as expected, the Han people were not completely intimidated by the killing, and there were still so many people who were not afraid of death who rose up to resist, and Duoduo, who felt that the situation was serious, hurriedly summoned Hong Chengchou to discuss.

Hong Chengchou was quite reused by the Qing court. In order to persuade him, Huang Taiji even did not hesitate to use his concubine Da Yuer to lure Hong Chengchou.

Now Hong Chengchou has been in the Manchu Qing Dynasty to the crown prince Taibao, the secretary of the military department and the right capital of the Imperial Palace, entered the inner court to manage military affairs, and awarded the secretary of the academy of scholars, even Duoduo is quite polite to him.

Because of such courtesy, Hong Chengchou worked hard for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, saw Duoduo, and after a little greeting, Hong Chengchou said: "Prince Yu." After the shaving order, the Jiangnan people resisted very strongly, which shows that the slaughter of soldiers alone is not enough to make the southerners submit. It has to be a two-pronged approach. ”

Duoduo's brows furrowed, the fierce light in his eyes flashed away, and he asked patiently, "Please teach Master Hong." ”

"Don't dare to teach. Lord, you want to determine the world. It must be eclectic, rigid and soft. In response to the riots against our Qing Dynasty in various places, in addition to sending additional troops to suppress them. On the other hand, Qian Qianyi and other Donglin Party members are quite popular in Jiangnan and have an inextricable relationship with the Jiangnan gentry, so let them come forward to appease them, and they will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. ”

"What Scholar Hong said is very true, so let's do it according to this."

Duoduo was tall, with a gold belt around his waist, and a beaded saber, and he was a little uncomfortable with the heat of the summer in the south of the Yangtze River, and his hat with a flowered feather and a hat had been removed, and his bare head was crowned with a rat's tail, which made him look very ugly.

He suddenly asked: "This king vaguely heard some rumors, a few days ago, the eighth elder brother was blocked by Qin Mu, the puppet governor of Huguang, under the city of Hanyang, and there were quite a few casualties, what does Scholar Hong think of Qin Mu?" ”

"Qin Mu, the hero of the troubled times!"

"That's all?"

"The talent of the heroes, if you support the master, you will become my fierce opponent. However, Qin Mu's unsubdued heart has been revealed, which will inevitably make some worldly talents unwilling to be driven by him. ”

"What does Scholar Hong mean is that Qin Mu is not enough to trouble?" Duoduo said quietly.

"No, Jiangxi Lake is located in the upper reaches of Jiangdong, and Qin Mu controls the two places, which is the biggest threat to Jiangnan, and it must be conquered as soon as possible, otherwise Jiangnan will not be peaceful for a day. At present, it seems that Qin Mu has become the primary enemy. In addition, Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng, Zhu Dadian, Yuan Hongxun, Zhang Bingzhen, He Lun and others are discussing the establishment of the puppet Lu King Zhu Changshu in Hangzhou, and they must also raise their teachers to attack him, so as not to condense the remnants of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Hong Chengchou's meaning is very clear, one is to attack Qin Mu's thorn in the eye with all his strength, and the other is to kill whoever dares to claim the emperor, so that the remnants of the Ming Dynasty Shili cannot be condensed.

Duoduo agreed with these two points, and the two of them discussed for a long time in the palace and made detailed arrangements for the next military operation

******

In order to buy people's hearts, after Duoduo entered Nanjing, he did not loot and slaughter as he did in Yangzhou. However, there were still many people who died, and the strong smell of blood filled the city, but all those who did not want to shave their heads were spared, and all of them were beheaded.

In order to stay in Jinling City, Huang Lianshan also had to shave his head, an inconspicuous courtyard in the Sanshan Gate, the doors and windows were locked, and Huang Lianshan was writing hard in the dimly lit room with a "money rat tail", and quickly wrote down a list:

Nikan. The third son of Chu Ying, the eldest son of Nurhachi, led his division from Mengjin to Shaanzhou from Duoduo to break the enemy. May, from Dordto Kinandu. Spoiled and cruel by nature.

Mountain. Ilgen Jue Luo, entered the customs from Dolgon, attacked Li Zicheng, and Ke Pingyang. From Duoduo down to the south of the Yangtze River, take the Huai River Bridge with Ma Lashi and others, and cross the Huai Bayang Prefecture; Led the boat division to trace the river, Kejiangning, and won the Hongguang Emperor.

Tong Tulai. The Han army was inlaid with yellow flags, and after entering the customs, they were inlaid with white flags, and Gushan Ezhen Bahana, Shi Tingzhu and others surrendered to Shandong Prefecture four, state seven, and county thirty-two. Looking for the west from Duoduo to conquer the south of the Yangtze River, successively Keyangzhou, Zhenjiang, into the second class of the world Meler Zhangjing, given python clothes.

Bolo. Nurhachisun, the third son of Abatai, the king of Rao Yumin, has military exploits and is cunning

The list is long. It is also very detailed, including almost all the Manchu and Mongolian generals who followed Duoduo southward, in addition to the above people, there are also Gushan Ezhen Zhun Tower, Mongolian Gushan Ezhen Malashi, and Furakta. Han Dai of the Shangshu Sect, Mel Zhangjing Yild, Gebaku, Commander of the Guardian Army, Durde, Commander of the Guardian Army, Shuonadai, Ilduqi, Feiyangu, Wu Lachan, Baiyitu, Shangshan, etc.

Huang Lianshan wrote down the resumes and personality preferences of these people one by one.

In addition, the deployment of troops, the supply of logistics, weapons and equipment of the Qing army. Whether there are contradictions between the generals and so on, all are recorded.

Sun Tzu's Art of War has a cloud: know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

Huang Lianshan and many other spies who did not collect spies at night were hiding in Nanjing, and their main task was to collect all the information that the Qing army could collect and send it back to Wuchang.

In addition, they also have an important task, that is, to do internal response for the future recovery of the cities, and now many members of the night do not collect have been transferred to the Manchu green battalion with the original Ming surrender troops, this kind of green battalion soldiers because the overall strategy is not strong. It is mostly used for garrison purposes.

When Xu Yingjie withdrew from Nanjing, he buried a large amount of silver, and if there was money, he could make the ghost grind, and Huang Lianshan spent a lot of money to open up the joints. Many members of the night camp were promoted to the positions of middle and low-level generals of the Green Battalion. This will not only facilitate future internal responses, but also facilitate the gathering of intelligence in the present.

Huang Lianshan hurriedly wrote down the information he had just obtained, and the handwriting on the white paper was pale yellow, and even the pale yellow handwriting slowly disappeared after drying;

He double-checked. After confirming that you can't see the clues, crumple this piece of white paper together with several other real white papers, and then spread it out and fold it randomly. Then he went out with a hat full of people.

The streets are full of green battalion soldiers patrolling, the former Eguan Bo belt, Shangguo's clothes are gone, the streets are full of people with bare heads, rat tails, and horse coats, and those who don't want to shave their heads are dead, and the strong smell of blood has not yet dissipated.

At first glance, I thought it was a city inhabited by barbarians, but it was so bloody that you couldn't believe that this was Nanjing City.

Looking at the whole city, there are only lotus flowers on Mochou Lake, no matter whether anyone is watching them or not, they are still blooming lonely with the season.

Under the high-pressure rule of the Tartars, the people shrank and shone when they spoke to each other, for fear that trouble would come out of their mouths and attract butcher knives to their necks, and they walked on tiptoe for fear of alarming something.

In the past, after drinking and drinking hot at the peach leaf watana, most of the southeastern celebrities who sang crazy and sad songs, pointed out the country, and criticized the government and politics became veritable rats, running with a rat tail to flatter and beg for mercy to the Tartars.

There has been news that Duoduo asked Qian Qianyiquan, who took the lead in surrendering, to select 300 people to become officials in various places to appease the boiling public opinion.

A touch of sadness flashed in Huang Lianshan's eyes, and endless hatred surged in his heart, hating both the Tartars and those traitors who fought for the tiger. He regretted that he didn't cut Qian Qianyi with a knife when he ransacked Fushui Villa.

I heard that his concubine Liu Ru still had the courage to jump into the water and die when the capital fell, but Qian Qianyi was such a "gentleman" who was willing to be a lackey of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

These lackeys wagked their tails and begged to be officials, but the city of Nanjing was full of hunger, and after the arrival of many Duo soldiers and horses, they wantonly looted grain and grass to fund the army, and the city was looted to ten rooms and nine empty, and the treasury was like washing.

The crops within hundreds of miles outside the city have all been eaten up by the horses of the Manchu Han Banner Army, and this summer will be no harvest. Now the city is full of people dying of hunger, and in a month or two, I don't know what will happen.

In the past, Huang Lianshan heard Qin Mu say a sentence: "Pity my world, there are many sorrows." At that time, Huang Lianshan did not have too deep understanding of this sentence, but at this moment, looking at the miserable people in the city, Huang Lianshan had a deep feeling for this sentence.

I hope you can lead the army to fight soon!

Qin Mu, who Huang Lian was eagerly looking forward to, was on the small earthen bag on the east bank of the water at the moment, looking at the nearly 50,000 troops of Azig and Wu Sangui like a storm.
