Chapter 136

Outside the city, the Ming soldiers threw the captured heads in front of the city gate and built a Jingguan, which greatly shocked the city of Nanjing.

At this time, with five small hills piled up with heads outside the outer city, the capture of the Battle of Zhenjiang was also cleared out.

The Ming army beheaded more than 6,000 people, more than 2,000 Qing troops surrendered, and some of the Qing troops washed away by the river were uncountable.

The Ming army suffered a lot of losses in this battle, but the seizure was very generous. Not to mention the money and food in Zhenjiang City, just taking off the Qing army's armor and collecting the Qing army's weapons had already made a lot of gains.

A large number of armor and weapons were seized in this battle. After Zhao Ming and Li Chengdong separated, they were probably able to equip a guerrilla battalion soldiers.

In order to go to the expedition this time, Zhao Ming spent all his savings on Jintang Island, saving 50,000 taels of silver and more than 10,000 stones of grain. However, judging from the current seizure, Zhao Ming, alone obtained 30,000 taels of silver, three boxes of jewelry and antiques, 5,000 stones of grain, and countless weapons and armor. It has been considered a return.

After that, Zhao Ming swept along the river and collected a lot of ships and property, so he made some money.

The seizure of the Zhenjiang Battle is still under consideration. Although it needs to be divided equally with Li Chengdong, it is estimated that the value of the materials obtained by Zhao Ming will not be less than 200,000 taels.

For a time, Zhao Ming really liked Pirates, a promising profession.

At this time, after the Ming army soldiers built the Qing army's head into Jingguan, they formed a formation under the city, thousands of troops were full of murderous aura, and the fleet on the river was showing off their power.

Zhao Ming carried fishing boats and merchant ships along the river, especially after seizing a large number of canal ships in Zhenjiang, there were more than 200 ships.

After the Qing army occupied Jiangnan, the economy of Jiangnan suffered a heavy blow and the canal transportation was also affected. Many ships had nothing to do, and the boatmen and coolies were also unemployed.

These people could not support their families without doing anything, especially the leaders of the country were extremely dissatisfied with the Qing Dynasty and became the targets of the development of anti-Qing forces such as the Tiandihui and the White Lotus Sect.

These people are engaged in collective labor and can endure hardships. Zhao Ming recruited and his fleet grew rapidly, and he was already quite powerful.

At this time, while the Ming army was forming a formation under the city, Zhao Ming, Li Chengdong and others came to the front of the army.

Half a year ago, this place was once the Nandu of the Ming Dynasty, but now it has become the Jiangning City of the Qing Dynasty.

Zhao Ming looked at the city. The desolate scene of fleeing in a hurry half a year ago is still vivid in his mind, but now, I, Zhao Bo'an, are back.

Looking at the towering Nanjing city walls, the Ming soldiers couldn't help but sigh that this was the capital of the Ming Dynasty. Restoring it will have infinite glory.

As the forward, Li Yuanyin rushed to Nanjing without stopping. He had a tired face on his face, but his eyes were still sharp in his blood-filled eyes.

At this time, Li Yuanyin glanced at the city coldly, spat on the ground, pulled his horse back to Li Chengdong, "Master, what should I do next?"

There were many Qing troops in Nanjing City, and the city was tall and thick, and there was a moat, so it was definitely impossible to fight.

Li Chengdong turned his head and looked at Zhao Ming. Zhao Ming immediately said loudly: "After Jingguan is in a hurry, the defenders are probably scared. Send people to surrender first and tell the defenders that if they do not surrender, they will die!"

Before Li Chengdong could speak, Li Yuanyin clasped his fists, pulled out his horse, galloped directly under the city, galloping back and forth with his might, and then shot an arrow at the top of the city.

Hong Chengchou felt a strong wind blowing through his face, and the arrow squirted, and the flagpole beside him broke, and he couldn't help but look shocked. Are the Ming army so fierce now?

Li Yuanyin grabbed the horse's reins and roared loudly, "The army is coming to the city, so those who know the knowledge should open the city and surrender quickly, so that they can avoid death! Otherwise~" He pointed a big gun at Jingguan behind him and shouted coldly, "They are you waiting for the fate."

After speaking, Li Yuanyin ran back into the formation with a clamped horse's belly.

Hong Chengchou was holding the walls with one hand, looking solemn.

"Sir Zhongtang, what should I do now?" Shoucheng Qing general said with a heavy face and panic.

Hong Chengchou glared, "Li and Zhao thieves are rampant, and more than 10,000 people dare to peek at Jiangning. Our church doesn't believe they can do anything to Jiangning City. You can defend our church well. When the reinforcements arrive, they will die!"

After saying that, Hong Chengchou prepared to go down the city, but at this moment, the city guard exclaimed, "Sir Zhongtang, look!"

When Hong Chengchou heard the words, he walked back to the edge of the city wall and looked down at the city. He saw a large cart suddenly rolling out from the Ming army formation, with a person tied up on it. The vehicle was slowly pushed to the city wall by soldiers.

"It's General Tian!" Someone who knew Tian Xiong in the city exclaimed and took a breath of cold air.

After Li Yuanyin passed the message, the Qing army in the city did not respond, so Zhao Ming immediately sent someone to push out the captured Tian Xiong.

This guy was attracted to Zhao Ming because he had a pair of armor on his body. Zhao Ming was afraid of smashing the armor, so he showed mercy and did not smash his head, which made him live for a few more days. However, this may not be a good thing for Tian Xiong. After living for a few more days, he would have been executed in another extremely painful way.

Hong Chengchou also recognized that the person tied to the car was Tian Xiong, who was named general because of his conspiracy to Huang Degong and contributed to Zhu Yousong's achievements.

Hong Chengchou was nearly fifty years old, but his eyes were very good. He could see Tian Xiong with a bare scalp and naked body at a glance.

For a moment, the Qing army on the city tower became quiet and watched what the Ming army was going to do. Hong Chengchou's face became gloomy.

At this time, the car stopped and saw a big man with leopard eyes and whiskers. He took out a hook and hooked Tian Xiong's tongue. He cut off his tongue with one knife. Tian Xiong suddenly let out an inhuman howl. The sound was painful and desperate, making people stand up in a chill.

The Qing army on the city wall understood that the Ming army wanted to kill Tian Xiong in front of them.

If you guessed correctly, the Ming army was preparing to cut Tian Xiong into pieces. The Qing army on the city wall could see clearly, and a buzzing sound sounded and a commotion appeared.

The big man cut his tongue, held a big knife, gestured on Tian Xiong, and finally slashed another knife on his thigh.

Accompanied by Tian Xiong's screams, a burst of cheers suddenly sounded among the Ming army lined up, and the soldiers raised their weapons high, "Kill the rebels!"

After being cut into pieces, Tian Xiong killed Huang Degong and betrayed Emperor Hongguang, he deserved such a punishment.

The Qing officials at the city wall of Nanjing were all pale and could not help but wonder what kind of way they would die if they were arrested.

In front of the Ming army formation, Li Chengdong looked at the man who tortured Tian Xiong and couldn't help but ask: "This punishment is a technical job. Lingchi must kill him 3,600 times, and he must keep angry. Where did you find the executioner?"

Zhao Ming said in a bad mood: "How could I find such a talent for a while? I can only find a pig-killing general. It's really cheap, Tian Xiong, this dog thief."

Wang Deshun said: "Why would you give it to me if you kill a pig?"
