Blood from Daming

Chapter 395
It was almost noon when Xue Polu woke up. If the soldiers didn't come to wake him up, Xue Polu would still be sleeping on the bed. After a quick wash, Lu ate some muffins indiscriminately, and then ordered his soldiers to dress himself up.

Xue Polu had been discussing the next marching plan with the generals of the Xue family army last night, and especially studied the various changes after the city was broken, as well as the strategy after dividing the troops with the East Route Army. Before he knew it, it was almost four o'clock. The task during the day is to lurk in the Anshan post castle, otherwise I really have to wonder how these big brothers of the Xue family army marched and fought.

When Xue Polu came to Commander Mao Yuanyi's residence, he happened to meet Commander Zhao led the teaching, and Commander Zhao asked, "How is Master Yu doing?"

Xue Polu smiled and said, "Brother said that everyone and Mr. Mao took it, so Mr. Yu had no choice but to accept it."

Zongbing Zhao said with a chuckle, "This soldier and Zongbing Man told Mr. Mao the same way, so Mr. Mao reluctantly accepted it."

So Xue Polu and Zhao led the teaching side by side into the small courtyard where Mao Yuanyi lived. The two came to the living room and found that besides the owner Mao Yuanyi, Yu An and Man Gui were already sitting in the living room. After Xing and Mangui saw the ceremony, they sat next to each other in the back seat.

Mao Yuanyi said: "Well, the purpose of calling everyone here is to determine how the preparations for the attack on Liaoyang City are."

Man Gui said: "Mr. Mao, brother Polu led this matter, let him talk about it."

Xue Polu said: "The last general means that our East Route Army will set off at Shenshi. Even if Jianlu finds out, we will go to Liaoyang City to report the letter after the city gate is closed. I believe Liaoyang City can't figure out the specifics of our team. In this way, our East Route Army has basically succeeded in arriving at Liaoyang City before the third watch tonight."

Mao Yuanyi said: "Polu, are you sure you can break through the city immediately?"

Xue Polu said: "The final general would like to issue a military order, but after the city is broken, please ask Mr. Mao not to issue the military order."

Mao Yuanyi pondered for a long time and said: "Isn't what you have done enough? Hey, the generals of your battalions are taking advantage of this matter. This command and Lord Yu are watching the enemy formation outside the city for you."

Xue Polu heard that Mao Yuanyi was going to be a slippery head, and Xue Polu was happy to act according to his own will. After discussing the details of entering Liaoyang City with everyone, Mao Yuanyi let Xue Polu go.Man Gui and Zhao led the teaching to leave.

Xue Polu.After Man Gui and Zhao Liaojiao left Mao Yuanyi's residence, they came to the general manager's office where Xue Polu lived. Man Gui told Xue Polu that from last night to now, the officers and soldiers in charge of the outskirts of Anshan Post Fort intercepted and trapped three hundred Most of the soldiers and people of Jianlu who were interrogated were Liao people.

Xue Polu smiled and said, "Brother Man, are you still planning to keep these people?"

Man Gui said: "Mr. Mao said that even the Han people cannot be killed."

Xue Polu said: "The Han people who can act on their own in Jianlu's land are probably all dead-hearted traitors."

Zhao Lijiao said: "I said that those Liao people who shaved their heads should be killed. See if Brother Polu still means that."

Man Gui gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, kill them all, even if they are wronged, they can go talk to Hades themselves."

Zhao Lengjiao said: "Brother Polu, Mr. Mao found out about those Jianlu female prisoners being played by the whole battalion officers and soldiers. Mr. Mao smashed a lot of porcelain in the house, but he insisted on not telling the three of us face to face. "

Xue Polu asked, "How is the situation in the prisoner camp?"

Zhao Lijiao smiled and said, "Brother Polu's prison camp is controlled by your Xue family army, why did you ask us two to come?"

Xue Polu did not mention this matter again. The three of them discussed how to cooperate with each other after entering Liaoyang City. They agreed that Xue Polu would be responsible for breaking the city. , followed by the soldiers of the guards and some civilians who are willing to join the war. With the rewards of silver and women last night, I believe that the morale of the Ming army of the East Route Army is very strong.

At the time of Shenshi, the north side of Anshan Post Fort was wide open, and the brigade wearing the Jianlu Eight Banners costumes slowly headed north. After about four or five thousand Jianlu Banner soldiers came out of Anshan Post Fort, the people who came out again were not Jianlu The Eight Banners costumes, and the authentic Ming army costumes, are such a mixed army of Jianlu and Ming army costumes walking together harmoniously.

Xue Polu also changed into a set of Zhenghuang Banner Jialaezhen clothing, which was the only set of spare clothing for the prisoner Gangan. Xue Polu was pretending to be a Tartar, and also the highest-ranking Jianlu military officer among the Tartars.

Lu Yaojin wore a cow-like dress and walked with Xue Polu. Lu Yaojin said quietly: "Second uncle, those Tartar women and children have been dealt with, and the selected Han people have been handed over to Mr. Mao." gone."

Xue Polu nodded to show that he understood, and after a while Xue Polu said: "I want gold, whether the explosives can be relied on to break the city, I made a guarantee in front of Mr. Mao and Mr. Yu."

Lu Yaojin said: "When I was in Datong, the young master told me about the gunpowder blowing up the city gate. The theory is that there is no problem, but I haven't tried it, but if Qiao Guoliang said there is no problem, then there must be no problem."

Xue Polu said: "If you want gold, why do you trust Qiao Guoliang so much?"

Lu Yaojin said: "Second Uncle, Qiao Guoliang is a dead man specially trained by the young master. He is now one of the top members of the diving guards, and he is from Xuezhuang. He can get a lot of teaching from the young master. His words are worthy of trust."

Xue Polu smiled and said, "If you want gold, why does the diving guard, young master, look like the Jinyi Guard of the imperial court?"

Lu Yaojin said: "My little nephew knows a little bit about the young master's thoughts. Now the submersible guards are open to the outside world. In the future, the leader of the submersible guards, Yang Zhenlei, is a stern and selfless person, but this is only for those with two ambitions." People are afraid."

Xue Polu said: "Liaoyang City is different from other cities. There are two cities in the north and the south. Maybe we can only attack the next city."

Lu Yaojin said: "Second Uncle, Beicheng is small in size and relatively small in population. It is dominated by Han people and there are not many leaders. Nancheng has a large area and is a busy area. As long as our Liaodong army captures Nancheng, we will be done. gone."

Xue Polu said: "You are right. There is a way out from the northern city. Maybe Jianlu's resistance will not be particularly fierce. In short, go to the southern city of Liaoyang to rob, kill, and burn them all."

When it was dark, Xue Polu's former army had already passed Qianshan, and at this speed, they could have rushed to the city of Liaoyang before three o'clock. What made Xue Polu most gratified was that the whereabouts of the Liaodong Army were not captured. I found that along the way, there were still many Tartar people greeting their army.

By the time it got dark, Xue Polu and the Mangui troops had captured more than 500 Jianlu people, many of whom had their heads shaved. Zhenren understood that these banner soldiers wearing Eight Banners costumes were the Ming army, and began to curse the Ming army. Whether those Liaodong Han people knew it was the Ming army in front of them or not, most of them just kept begging for mercy.

Xue Polu and Man Gui's subordinates didn't pay any attention to it at all. They just rushed to fill the soil. When encountering Jurchen Liaomin who resisted or yelled at them, they either knocked them off or stabbed them. Weeping and waiting to die in the pit, the saddest thing is that some Liao people have no sense of resistance at all, for fear of offending the Jurchen Eight Banners soldiers who want to kill them.

After more than two hours of marching in the dark, the forward Xue Polu of the Liaodong Army arrived at a position five miles outside Liaoyang City at 500:[-]. , Liu Mandun and Song Kui assisted Qiao Guoliang in his work, and Yan Laoyao led the first attack team of [-] people, including Niu San and Ma Tao.

Cooperating with Yan Laoyao's first wave of attack was Man Gui's guest army, nearly 3000 people from the Sichuan Army General Xiao Can and the Shaanxi Army Liu Guoyong. The second attack echelon was the main force. Zhao led a thousand soldiers to cooperate with each other. Xue Jiajun Lu Yaojin led Rao Guoying to coordinate the various ministries. The main force of Mangui was the Xue Jiajun commando who broke the city to cooperate with the opportunity to seize the North City. Zhao led the Ministry of Education. The mission is to control the remaining five gates of Liaoyang South City.

Xue Polu led Zhang Sanzhu, Yu Dahui, Wang Ping, Tao Yaofu and most of Master Yu's subordinates to attack important yamen, Baylor Mansion, warehouses, etc. in Liaoyang. , The civilian husband followed up and cooperated with the official army's occupation of Liaoyang City.
