Chapter 18: The Li Clan in Liaodong
"Xiong Zhengluo has ordered: Mongols and Jurchens, kill all of them, regardless of age or young, and do not accept surrender!" The next day, the model soldiers holding documents rode out from the south gate of Chenyang and rushed in all directions.
Within half a month, the four words "not accepting surrendered people" almost resounded throughout the Ming towns west of the Liao River. Countless Ming soldiers, holding swords and guns, began to search for foreigners from house to house.
Anyone found will be cut without saying a word.
In Chenyang City, two Ming army brothers heard that there were Jurchens living in the room, so they kicked open the door, and one of them shouted:
"I am ordered to kill Jianlu!"
The Jurchens began to resist, but this could only allow more Ming troops to arrive one after another.
Soon, the entire street was surrounded by the Ming army, and countless soldiers kicked the door from house to house. All Jurchens who had the power to fight were the first targets to be killed.
Xiong Tingbi was in charge of the country in Liaodong and ordered the killing of all Mongolian and Jurchens in various towns directly shocked the entire Liaodong.
Not only to the west of the Liaohe River, but also to the Later Jin Dynasty who received the news.
Finally, there is no need to live with those Jiannu who have an irreconcilable hatred. Finally, he can take revenge quickly. None of the soldiers are unexcited.
No one could understand their hatred when they watched Jiannu slaughter his family. All the hatred accumulated over the years broke out under the command of Xiong Tingbi.
Soon, a wave of killing the Mongols and Jurchens was set off in western Liaoning, and it was out of control.
Can't do it? It doesn't exist!
How ruthless they were when they slaughtered their families, but now Ming soldiers are ruthless when they kill them!
Just when the Ming army sharpened their swords and started a massacre specifically against the Tartars west of the Liaohe River, the latter was unwilling to wait for death.
Because Xiong Tingbi carried out strict martial law in advance, the Tartars could not contact the masters of Hetuala, so they had to take the lead in launching a rebellion with the intention of subverting the entire western Liaoning.
In a small house in Chenyang City, there were many Yuan Yingtai gathered in a small house that they once firmly believed that they were the Tartars whom they sincerely defected to.
At this time, Chenyang was already martial law, and the streets and alleys were filled with groups of Ming soldiers who were searching for foreign tribes. Anyone who was searched was cut without exception.
Whether they were Mongolian tribes or Jurchens, they all gathered together at this time, holding private weapons in their hands and whispering in languages they could only understand.
"What should I do? Minggou is coming here!"
"Batuhai, you are the guard of the Khan. You can come up with an idea. Even if we die, we will never be caught by Mingdo!" A Jurchen said while sharpening the knife, his eyes full of ruthlessness.
No one expected that the newly ascended Emperor Zhu Youxiao had such courage, and they did not expect that Xiong Tingbi would give such an order!
Before Nabatuhai could speak, the two Mongols from Korchin said in a panic: "The whole city is full of Ming troops. Xiong Tingbi also transferred the Shanhaiguan regiment to train troops into the city yesterday, which we can't beat!"
After saying that, the two Mongolians heard the Ming army knocking on the door outside the courtyard, and they were even more like frightened birds, shouting loudly in Chinese:
"We surrender, don't kill us!"
"These Mongolian bastards!" Batuhai looked up, and the Jurchens rushed forward and killed the two Mongolians who were shouting and running out.
"What should I do now?" someone asked.
Batuhai's eyes were full of brilliance and he gritted his teeth and said, "At this time, it's too late to contact Dahan, so he can only fight with these Ming dogs!"
"The warriors of the young masters, kill Mingdog!!"
The inspiring Jiannu did not notice that the Ming army outside the door quickly stopped smashing the door after hearing the screams of the two Mongolians. It was quiet everywhere, which was very abnormal.
Batuhai led dozens of Tartars to rush out shouting slogans. As soon as the door opened, they were all dumbfounded.
The Ming army had long surrounded the entire yard. What they saw were a row of black muzzles and Ming soldiers waiting in line with long spears.
The leader of Ming Jun Qian seemed to have known that they would resist stubbornly, but he sneered and waved his knife and shouted: "Let it go!"
"Blow me hard!"
As the words came to the ground, the sound of exploding like fried beans rang one after another. All the Jurchens squeezed at the door became living targets, and were beaten to pieces.
Even if he was extremely lucky, he was not shot to death by one round, but he was beaten up by three or five Ming troops, and finally turned into a pool of meat paste.
At this time, Liaoyang was the only place that did not comply with Xiong Tingbi's military orders, because the guard general here was Li Chengliang's third son, Li Ruzhen, the general of the Liao Dynasty.
Upon hearing that Li Ruzhen did not obey the military order and protected the Jurchens, Xiong Tingbi was very angry and immediately submitted a memorial to Emperor Tianqi, who was in the capital, impeaching him.
Li Ruzhen did not obey military orders, but Liaoyang was the capital of Liaodong, so Xiong Tingbi had to pay attention to it. He sent an order to ask Puhe Deputy General He Shixian to immediately enter Liaoyang.
At this time, He Shixian was ordered to enter Shenyang. As soon as he entered the city, he saw a team of people coming towards him. When he saw Dingqing, he saw that Li Ruzhen, the general general of the Liao Dynasty, was coming.
He Shixian understood that Li Ruzhen's official position was greater than that of him, so he would definitely not be welcomed when he came out, and things would be bad.
There have been rumors that the Li family in Liaodong raised thieves and He Shixian also knew a little about it. In order to avoid noise from the army, he signaled his subordinates not to act rashly, so he went forward and clasped his fists and said with a smile:
"He Shixian, deputy general of Puhe, has met Marie Li."
Li Ruzhen glanced at the group of soldiers behind him and asked, "With such a big battle coming to Liaoyang, is it because the manager suspected that my Li family was not good at Liaoning?"
He Shixian laughed awkwardly, waved his hands repeatedly, but he didn't give any face at all, and said seriously: "What does the master think? That's not my He Shixian's business."
"I was just ordered to investigate the Jianlu in Liaoyang City, and please do not block the way, General Li!"
Li Ruzhen immediately wanted to draw his sword when she heard this, but after thinking about it, she still put her hand down and sneered: "He Shixian, you are just a miscellaneous deputy general, you are so majestic!"
"I am the general of the Liao Dynasty. When will it be your turn to intervene in Liaoyang City?"
He Shixian was fearless and said, "Zheng Zhengluo was ordered to help Liaodong. I, He Shixian, followed his military orders to purge Liaoyang!"
As he said that, he also sneered and asked, "Mayor Li insisted on stopping me. Could it be that he colluded with the city's built-in captives to raise the thief to cause trouble!?"
"Don't you go fart, how could I be a Li clan!" Li Ruzhen immediately cursed, and the soldiers from both sides took out their weapons and met with cold eyes.
Seeing that a mutiny is about to happen.
Li Ruzhen was just angry for a moment and asked him to directly rebel and surrender to Jiannu. He never thought about this. At best, he just wanted to do some business in private and exchange money, which was far from treason.
If the fight really started this time, He Shixian was ordered to enter, but the only one who ignored him was Li Ruzhen. Thinking of this, his face changed, but he did not speak first.
He couldn't swallow this.
When He Shixian saw the change in Li Ruzhen's expression, he knew that if this battle started, the only thing that would be happy was Jiannu, so he spoke first and gave him a step.
"It would be simple to prove that Li's loyalty to the court. You and I divided the places and cut off all the Tartars in Liaoyang City from this southern gate."
It has been a day or two for the Li family and Jiannu in Liaodong to do business in private, but in the past two months, the situation in the court has changed dramatically.
Wei Zhongxian was in charge of the East Factory, Wang An was in charge of the seal and the Lijians. The power of the factory guards rose again and repeatedly launched imperial edicts. The emperor relied on Xiong Tingbi in Liaodong. He had heard the vernacular oral instructions that he wanted to stay with the Tartars until they died.
Li Ruzhen can still tell which end is lighter and which end is heavy.
Since we were going to break up with Jiannu, we would break up and stop interacting. It would save the emperor from being suspected by the emperor and it would be hard to say that it would be passed on to the court!
Thinking of this, Li Ruzhen grinned and said, "Well, let's have a lottery. We can only cut off the Tartars' heads for a day. Whoever cuts down the Tartars has fewer heads, will kowtow and admit their mistakes!"
He Shixian responded without hesitation and waved: "Okay, go to the city!"
