Blood from Daming

Chapter 393 Dividing the spoils
Just after Yan Laoyao ordered Xue Jiajun to throw grenades, the Xue Jiajun on the tower also threw grenades. The grenade thrown from the height of the tower was thrown very far, and dozens of grenades were thrown on the long street behind the large group of Tartars. The location of the explosion exploded, and as three or forty people were struggling in a pool of blood, the tartars who had suffered a loss all hid in the houses on both sides.

Yan Laoyao commanded his soldiers to throw grenades one after another, and the Tartars almost dragged some wounded soldiers into the houses by the roadside, and the rest of the wounded were ravaged by Xue's army's grenades again, and they were all dead.

At this time Yan Laoyao saw Xue Polu coming with the army, and he immediately ordered his soldiers to pull away the carts blocking the city gate. The incoming feather arrows forcibly pulled away the blocked carts, and the cavalry of the Xue family army rushed into the city of Anshan Yibaobao.

There is no suspense in the next battle. More than 3000 Xue's troops entered Anshan Post Fort. It is like a tiger entering a sheep pen. Cleaning up three or four thousand soldiers and civilians mixed with Jianlu is entirely for the Xue's army to train troops. Anyway, if it is easy to solve, it will be moved. With knives and guns, use fire to bomb those who are troublesome. When encountering stubborn Tartars, the soldiers of the Xue family will throw a grenade over them, and then charge forward, most likely to make up for those disabled Tartars. It is to do good deeds, relieve these injured Tartars, and let these Tartars die early and be reborn early.

Yan Laoyao took aim at the shop in Changjie where the Tartar official fled, and led a group of men to surround the shop. Yan Laoyao saw that it was an old ginseng shop in Changbai Mountain, and knew that it was opened by the old Tartar, so Regardless of Sanqi 21, a grenade was thrown in. After the grenade exploded, Yan Laoyao rushed in with his men.

After chopping melons and vegetables for a while, Yan Laoyao and his men killed everyone in this triple store. Except for the bombed Jiala Ezhengangan who was hiding under the bed, a dozen Tartars The soldiers and the store's family, young and old, all became ghosts from hell.

The battle at Anshan Post Fort lasted only half an hour. During this period, Governor Yu's team, led by his staff member Chu Yi, also participated in the massacre and robbery of Anshan Post Fort. In addition, none of the 4000 people in the entire Anshan Post Fort escaped. Among them, there were only more than 1000 prisoners in Anshan Post Fort, which was finally captured.

Originally, Xue Polu was going to deal with these more than 1000 captives, but Mangui General Soldier came to the north gate of Anshan Post Fort. Xue Polu had to go to the north gate to welcome him personally. All the Tartars who escaped from the north gate of Anshan Yibao were killed by Mangui's team.

Since the news that Anshan Post Fort was breached by the Ming army has not been leaked, Xue Polu's mood is much better. Otherwise, he may have to change the direction of march tomorrow. Man Gui also told Xue Polu that his subordinates are still around Anshan Post Fort. Killed nearly [-] Jianlu soldiers and civilians, so far no one has escaped.

When Xue Polu and Man Gui returned to the center of Anshan Yibao City, Mao Yuanyi, the commander of the Liaodong East Route Army, and Yu Anxing, the governor of Shanhaiguan, also arrived in Anshan Yibao, which almost stopped Lu Yaojin's work of screening the captives.

Mao Yuanyi said to Xue Polu: "Polu, these are almost all old and weak women and children. Your subordinates are still selecting prisoners. Do you want to choose some of them to kill?"

Xue Polu said, "Mr. Mao, just to see if there are any heinous Jian prisoners hiding among the prisoners."

Mao Yuanyi said: "Polu, you have made a great contribution and the commander will report to Mr. Jinglue. Most of these are women and girls, so don't embarrass them anymore."

Xue Polu nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Mao, did you let them go or lock them up?"

Mao Yuanyi said: "You lock them up, let them go when we go far tomorrow."

At this time, Lu Yaojin said, "Commander Mao, it's so troublesome to lock them up, just let them go."

Mao Yuanyi turned pale when he heard Lu Yaojin's words, Xue Polu repeatedly scolded Lu Yaojin, Mao Yuanyi stood there for a while, then left without saying a word, Yu Anxing turned to Xue Polu.Lu Yaojin shook his head and sighed, and left the captive scene with Mao Yuanyi.

Fortunately, there were not many Han Chinese among the more than 1000 people. Lu Yaojin separated them and revealed each other's identities. Soon, more than 700 of the more than 100 Han people were singled out as those who took refuge in Jianlu for profit, and there were evil deeds who oppressed Han compatriots. , locked them up alone, and the remaining [-] Han people were low-level slaves and ordinary people who were exploited and oppressed.

According to the combat plan of the East Route Army, all [-] officers, soldiers and civilians entered the Anshan Post Fort when it was dark. Polu's team advanced first to Anshan Post Fort, and the capture of the fort basically fell into the hands of Xue's army.

Based on the idea of ​​uniting all those who can be united, Xue Polu piled up all the gold, silver, jewelry, old ginseng and other things seized in Anshan Yibao in the main hall of the general manager's office. divided the spoils.

Xue Polu said: "There are about one thousand taels of gold here, more than 800 taels of gold wares, more than 5000 taels of silver wares, more than 9000 taels of silver wares, two buckets of jewelry, and fifteen catties of old ginseng. The two officers see how to divide them." .”

Man Gui smiled and said: "Brother Polu, you Xue Jiajun fought hard for these, it's up to you to decide how to divide them."

Xue Polu said: "Brother Man, don't say that. If you are in the same boat, you will have the same blessings and share the hardships. Our Xue family army officers and soldiers should take what we should get. We can't let the Xue family army eat meat and everyone drink soup. Broke the fellowship of our Ming army."

Man Gui said: "Brother Polu, you are honest enough to talk about loyalty. Such a person is my good brother Man Gui. Old Zhao, you can also talk about how to divide."

Zhao Lijiao said: "No matter how to divide, the two properties belonging to Mr. Mao and Mr. Yu must be selected first."

Man Gui said: "Old Zhao is still right."

So Man Gui took two pieces of handkerchiefs and spread them out on the table, grabbing them among the gold, jewelry and old ginseng, and soon they were filled with two parcels full of belongings, don't underestimate these two parcels, Man Gui chose as much as possible It is valuable, just two packages can let Mao Yuanyi and Yu Anxing go back to their hometown to enjoy their old age.

The fruitful harvest of Anshan Yibao made Xue Polu, Man Gui, and Zhao Liaojiao fix their eyes on Liaoyang City. The three of them were not very interested in the property in front of them, so the three quickly reached an agreement, and the seized The weapons, food, grass, silk and cloth of the armored battle are divided equally among the battalions and the heavy battalions. The property in front of the battalion is divided among the officers with more than a thousand total in each battalion, and other officers are given some silver and jewelry as appropriate. The silver rewards to civilian husbands are halved.

When the three of them were about to leave for Mao Yuanyi and Yu Anxing's place, Man Gui said, "Brother Polu, what are you going to do with those Tartar prisoners?"

Xue Polu said: "Of course I killed something, otherwise what else can I do."

Man Gui said: "Brother Polu, it's a pity to just kill him like this. Let the brothers have a good time."

Xue Polu hesitated and said, "Mr. Mao, what should Master Yu do?"

Man Gui said: "What else can I do, I may not be able to control the soldiers and horses directly under my Jinglue Mansion."

Xue Polu asked: "Brother Zhao, what do you mean?"

Zhao Lijiao said: "Tomorrow night, the soldiers will be desperate. It may not be a good thing if they can vent their anger."

Xue Polu thought for a while and said, "Okay, except for the [-] bitter Han people who were picked out, all the rest will be given to the soldiers to enjoy. What do you think?"

Man Gui and Zhao Rate Jiao are naturally very satisfied, Xue Polu wanted to hold Man Gui and Zhao Rate Jiao to do their best in the matter of Gong Liaoyang City, and decided to push them to swear to Jianlu He went to the seat that was not at odds with each other, so he pushed out the two women who he had been thinking about how to deal with.

Xue Polu said with a smile: "Since the officers and soldiers have a place to vent, you two officers can't sleep alone. Today, two women were arrested in Babutai's chief yamen. It is said that they belonged to Babutai. Concubine, you two might as well take it back to the camp and enjoy it."

Man Gui said: "Brother Polu, a gentleman does not take advantage of others. This is the woman you got first. How can we have the nerve to enjoy it?"

Zhao Lijiao also said: "Brother Polu. It's better for you to keep the beauty of night embrace."

Xue Polu shook his head and said: "The martial arts practiced by the general can't be close to women's sex. It's a waste to keep the general there. It's better for the two officers to take it and work harder."
