Daming heir

The fighting was over before midnight.

After pacifying the city, the Daming Dragon Banner was carefully erected again by the officers and soldiers.

Inside and outside the city, countless fires were lit.

The soldiers of the Ming army who had just finished a battle to seize the city did not rest there, but led the people in Pingding City to clean up the battlefield.

under the city gate.

Zhang Zhiyuan, who wanted to go to check the casualties of the soldiers, was stopped by a group of people.

The leader was the one who deliberately threw the rolling stone aside when he ascended the city at the very beginning.

Zhang Zhiyuan stopped and looked at the people blocking the city gate.

Before he could speak, the people had already knelt down.

"Thank you, General, for leading the troops and killing these damn Japanese workers."

"Commons, thank you, General."

Zhang Zhiyuan hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hands.

The soldiers by his side even went ahead of schedule, and they came to the people and helped them up one by one.

My own general never liked such things.

Zhang Zhiyuan looked at the people of Pingding City, who had been under the lewd force of the Japanese bandits in the past few days, with a solemn expression: "We are Ming soldiers, and it is our duty to defend the territory. This time, the bandits in eastern Jin Dynasty harassed you, causing you all to be humiliated. , now that the thieves have been eliminated, you can live in peace."

The leading commoners walked up to Zhang Zhiyuan, with worried expressions on their faces, and said, "General, the county magistrate is dead, and all the people in the yamen were killed by the thieves. All the soldiers and guards in the city were also dead. , there are still many thieves, will the general lead the army to guard the city all the time?"

The four cities in eastern Shanxi are currently in the hands of Japanese thieves, and now only this Pingding city has just been relieved.

The people in the city also knew that the army would definitely go out to continue to suppress the bandits.

It's just that these days, how many people in the city have been harassed by thieves, and people are terrified.

Zhang Zhiyuan's face was gloomy. On the street behind the city gate, there were countless corpses of people in the city who hadn't had time to calm down.

The first thing he did after taking Pingding City was to take people on a tour of the city.

Japanese pirates should be cut to pieces.

In just a few days, all the officials in Pingding City were killed. Women and children were bullied and died tragically in the county government house.

Not to mention those women in the city.

If it weren't for the Japanese bandits, we would have to be wary of the imperial troops coming to conquer and suppress them. I'm afraid the women in the city would cry when they were pacified.

As for the common people who dare to complain and dissatisfaction, as long as they are seen, they will be beaten severely at least, and will be killed directly at worst.

The Japanese workers who were arrested by Ming Dynasty and came to Shanxi Road to dig coal vented the anger that had been hidden in their hearts for a long time in the past few days.

Looking at the people who asked the army to stay in front of them.

Zhang Zhiyuan clenched his fists tightly.

According to the original plan, after capturing Pingding City, he would take his headquarters directly south to Leping County.

After the court soldiers and horses recaptured the four cities in eastern Jin, it does not mean that the matter is over.

We also need to divide our troops to go to various mining areas to clear out the Japanese bandits that are entrenched in the mining areas and scattered around.

"General."

The deputy general led his people and rushed over from the city. He just heard the people's invitation and couldn't help but frowned and shouted next to Zhang Zhiyuan.

Zhang Zhiyuan raised his hands, and looked at the people in front of him with a solemn expression: "Everyone, although the thieves in Pingding City have been killed, there are still a few thieves from the north of the city in the eastern Jin area.

This general also knows what you folks have asked for.It's just that the army still has military orders, so it is difficult to garrison Pingding City.This time, the general will leave a thousand people to garrison the city, and wait for the army to leave early tomorrow morning.

You don't have to worry too much, I think His Royal Highness King Yan will rush to Pingding City with the army after noon tomorrow, or at dusk at the latest. "

"His Royal Highness Yan Wang is also coming?"

When the people heard that Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who was far away in Beiping, had also come with troops, they were surprised for a while.

Zhang Zhiyuan looked at these people who had been humiliated in just a few days, with murderous intent hidden in his eyes.

After several times of consolation, the people were persuaded to disperse.

At this time, Zhang Zhiyuan looked inside and outside the city gate.

"Order the whole army to act according to the order. After dealing with the affairs of Pingding Prefecture, rest on the spot. Tomorrow morning, we will bury the pot to make food and head south to Leping County."

The lieutenant was shocked.

Commander Zhang's military order had been issued long ago.

All Japanese thieves, whether dead or alive, were killed and buried.

It's just that after seeing the scene of pacifying the city with their own eyes, no one will feel that there is anything wrong with such a military order.

The military order was soon circulated to the entire army again.

In the dark.

The people in Pingding City, who could not rest, looked at the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and began to urge the Japanese pirates who had surrendered to dig pits outside the city in a place where the wind was hard to see.

From time to time, the horsewhip was lashed at the pirates who were lazily digging holes.

The surrounding soldiers of the Ming army showed no mercy in their eyes.

Under the hard work of the Ming army soldiers, within half an hour, a huge hole was dug by the Japanese bandits who had surrendered.

"Throw all the corpses in."

Zhang Zhiyuan's deputy general personally supervised the work and gave the order.

Under the new round of supervision by the officers and soldiers, the pirates began to throw the corpses of their companions who had been collected by the soldiers and civilians in the city and moved outside the city into the pit.

This time is shorter.

It was but a quarter of an hour.

When the Japanese pirates felt that their work was done, they only needed to refill the hole with soil.

The deputy general's eyes were gloomy and he said coldly: "You guys, go in too."

There was a pirate who knew the Mandarin of the Central Plains, and his expression changed drastically.

Daming wants to kill them alive!

There was a chirping sound that the officers and soldiers present could not understand.

The pirates gradually understood, fear and anger appeared in their eyes, and they began to growl boldly at the officers and soldiers.

The lieutenant's face turned cold, and he was about to order the officers and soldiers to advance.

Zhang Zhiyuan had already arrived here on horseback.

On the horseback, Zhang Zhiyuan looked at the Japanese pirates who were beginning to appear in chaos, and immediately drew out his long knife.

"Press up! Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed on the spot!"

Following the order of the general, the officers and soldiers immediately showed their swords and guns.

"kill!"

Outside the city of Pingding, the battle was settled, but the Ming army shouted to kill again.

It is still the sword and shield soldiers in front, and the spearmen in the back.

Surrounding the big pit here, the range began to shrink forward continuously.

The pirates never thought that the Ming army would be so determined, and they became more and more crowded in the panic.

Not long after, someone standing by the pit stumbled and fell into the pit.

"kill!"

The officers and soldiers continued to shout and kill in unison.

Those pirates who dared not to retreat were quickly killed by officers and soldiers of the Ming army.

In the dark of night.

At the beginning, there were wailing sounds from Japanese thieves, and under the pressing force of the officers and soldiers of the Ming army, people kept falling into the pit.

The officers and soldiers walked steadily.

Even if there are Japanese pirates who have fallen to the ground, they can't delay their footsteps.

Zhang Zhiyuan sat high on his horseback, watching everything in front of him quietly, not even noticing that the lieutenant general was by his side.

The lieutenant general frowned slightly when he heard the wailing sounds of the pirates falling into the pit, looked up at Zhang Zhiyuan on the horseback, and said in a low voice: "General, will the general be slandered by the court officials? "

"Huh?" Zhang Zhiyuan realized that the lieutenant general was by his side at this moment, and looked sideways at the lieutenant general: "Did the general do something wrong?"

"This..." The deputy general hesitated for a moment, and could not help reminding: "The benevolence and righteousness of the country, even during the Northern Expedition before the Yuan Dynasty, there were few such things that could kill soldiers. In order to dig coal mines and save the suffering of our people.

The general's entrapment and killing of the soldiers may have caused the civil servants of the court to feel that the general's murderous nature would increase the bloodshed, which was inconsistent with the benevolence and righteousness of the court. "

Zhang Zhiyuan sneered: "Our department was ordered to wipe out the Japanese thieves, wipe out the thieves' army, and dig pits to bury the corpses of the thieves late at night, so that they can be buried in the ground and prevent the local epidemic. Isn't our army doing benevolent and righteous things? Not benevolent and righteous teacher?"

The lieutenant stared blankly, and the astonishment on his face was undoubtedly exposed.

Zhang Zhiyuan glanced at the deputy general lightly.

"Do you say yes or no?"

The lieutenant general nodded blankly: "What the general said is absolutely true."

Zhang Zhiyuan smiled, and said softly: "How the capital center discusses is their business. As a general, I should know that everything should be based on military orders. How to make the commander's military orders go smoothly is what we should do." things to think about.

As for North Korea?Let me give an explanation to those civil servants who don't know the weight of swords and guns, and the weight of soldiers and soldiers, and that's it. "

The lieutenant nodded half-understood, then turned his head and ordered again, urging the officers and soldiers to speed up.

Zhang Zhiyuan looked at the scene in front of him with a smile on his face.

He still didn't say a word.

That is, Taisun is the one who dislikes Japanese people the most in the Ming Dynasty.

If not, it would be impossible to find a Japanese within thousands of miles in Yingzhou today.

Even if there are, according to the information Zhang Zhiyuan got, they are all Japanese women.

As for the usefulness...

Zhang Zhiyuan was reluctant to recall.

He can only say that that guy Tie Xuan is too insane.

Thinking of Tie Xuan, Zhang Zhiyuan couldn't help but stretch his thoughts.

According to the news from the court, Tie Xuan will probably return to Beijing together with the two Dukes of the Southern Expedition and the Eastern Expedition returning to Beijing this time.

He already has the position of walking in the Wenhua Palace and the position of the Ministry of War. If everything goes well, he will either enter the cabinet or preside over the Ministry of War.

Tie Xuan, a crazy guy, is going back to Beijing.

Whenever Zhang Zhiyuan thinks about this matter, he becomes more curious about the changes in the DPRK situation in the near future.

Just when Zhang Zhiyuan's thoughts were flying wildly.

All the pirates in front had been driven into the pit by the officers and soldiers.

At this time, the people under the city wall finally understood the intentions of the officers and soldiers.

No need to be summoned.

The people quickly rushed over spontaneously with shovels and rakes.

"Masters, take a break."

"I'll just wait for this little thing to do."

"The common people don't know how to do other things, but dealing with the land is something they are most familiar with."

Being able to personally bury the Japanese pirates who ruined Pingding City once again made the people in the city very happy.

The generals by the pit looked at Zhang Zhiyuan inquiringly.

Zhang Zhiyuan watched that the scene was already surrounded by the common people, and more people from the city rushed over.

He nodded immediately.

immediately.

A burst of cheers erupted from the crowd.

The soil that was dug out began to be backfilled into the pit.

The officers and soldiers of the Ma Army Camp who were already ready on the side had not yet started working, and their horses stepped on the backfilled holes.

Then some people started to hold Shi Luo aside.

The simple people of Ming Dynasty, the reasons in their mouths are still hard to refute.

For leveling the land, which one can compare with stone rollers?

Facing the reasons of the common people, no one can fault it.

The people of Ming Dynasty are the ones who are most familiar with the land.

Towards the end of the period, the army began to rest.

Halfway through the Yin hour, the army began to march south to Leping County along the official road under the watchful eyes of the people all over the city.

The more three days.

At the head of Shouyang City, a military report was sent to Zhu Yunxi by military scouts.

Wearing soft armor, Zhu Yunxi bowed his head to review the military newspaper, and handed it over to Cao Zhen and others beside him.

Several lieutenant generals were silent after reading the military newspaper.

Cao Zhen laughed a few times: "The Little Killing God really is the Little Killing God. Originally, I read the military newspaper of the Dudu Mansion and saw his reputation. At first, I thought it was because of the fame of Peking. Seeing it today, it is really true." It's me, Da Ming's Little Killing God!"

"The Japanese pirates in Pingding Prefecture and Leping County were all killed by Zhang Zhiyuan, and they have been divided into various mining areas in eastern Shanxi to eliminate them. He dispatched his headquarters to Meng County, and this is to continue to kill the Japanese pirates in Meng County. "

Zhu Yunxi's eyes were dim.

Cao Zhen thought that the emperor's grandson was somewhat dissatisfied with Zhang Zhiyuan's move.

He immediately said: "Soldiers are expensive, and Zhang Zhiyuan came to Shanxi in order to prevent the army from being delayed by Japanese thieves. I am a little surprised that His Royal Highness King Yan will personally lead the troops into Shanxi."

Finally, Cao Zhen changed the subject.

Zhu Yunxi smiled and looked up to the northeast of Shouyang City.

According to the military newspapers in the past two days, my old fourth uncle has probably already surrounded Meng County by soldiers.

It should be Zhang Zhiyuan's blessing.

It is possible to ask the clan vassals of the Ming Dynasty to surround the city for their soldiers, waiting for them to lead the troops and receive their military exploits.

As for the fourth uncle coming to Shanxi Road, Zhu Yunxi was indeed a little surprised.

The imperial court had a strict ban, but the fourth uncle was able to ignore the ban and lead troops south into Shanxi.

If it wasn't for suppressing the rebellion this time, or if he sealed off the country without authorization, the imperial court would be able to convict him of a crime.

As for what Cao Zhen said at this time...

Zhu Yunxi looked sideways at the other party: "The army compiled the report and submitted it to Yingtian. He said that under the turmoil in Shanxi Road, the Japanese rebels were so numerous and widely distributed. In order to protect the safety of the Jin people, the army did what they did. The orders are all aimed at quickly suppressing the unrest."

This is the emperor's grandson personally covering up Zhang Zhiyuan's murder of the Japanese bandits.

Cao Zhen nodded: "Wei Ben went to the northwest to quell the turmoil. To the south of Taiyuan Prefecture, Shanxi Prefecture also accompanied officials to bring troops to the south. Your Highness's northern tour is mainly to discuss mutual markets with Wala and inspect the border. But at the moment In winter, the roads are covered with snow, will His Highness stay in Taiyuan, or..."

The biggest danger in Shanxi Road was when we were in Taiyuan City, before the reinforcements arrived, they were all occupied by rebels such as Changsun Gong and Li Wen.

After Jin Wang Zhu's birthday banquet, Taiyuan City was occupied by imperial soldiers and horses, and the rebels were wiped out, and the situation in Shanxi Road was completely reversed.

As for the current pirate rebellion, it is only a matter of time for Shanxi Province where the army is gathering at this moment.

What's more, no one mentioned in the whole process that Henan soldiers or the closer Datong soldiers should be transferred to participate in the counter-insurgency.

Zhu Yunxi spread his arms and patted the city wall.

"Reorganize Shouyang City, gather troops and horses, it's time for me to go see my fourth uncle."
