Seven hundred and ninetieth IX Ren Dejing's end
When training, the Ming army's jumping soldiers focused on killing people with one blow, focusing on killing efficiency rather than the gorgeous moves. The weapons they were equipped with were generally short swords, hand axes or special hammers.
In addition to the short sword, the soldiers are equipped with weapons in a unified manner, and the hand axe and hammer are personal favorites.
Some people like to chop people with axes, while others like to use hammers to hammer people. The moves of these two weapons are similar when fighting, and they are both types of one force to reduce ten times.
As long as I use strong enough, the weapons are strong enough, and I greet your head, even if you wear an iron helmet and a knife and arrow, I can kill you with one blow.
The most common training of the Ming army's jumping soldiers is to hit the heads of straw men or wooden men hard, hit the target's head within a limited time from different angles or avoid countless obstacles.
During training, the success rate of hitting the head is used as the benchmark. Soldiers who successfully hit a large number can get extra meals. Soldiers who successfully hit a small number must clean the toilet, pick up manure, etc.
On the battlefield, the Ming army's jumping soldiers were also headshots.
Although the Ming army had never encountered any serious enemy formations that could face the Ming army after the demise of the Jin Dynasty, Su Yonglin still set up this army, targeting the troops of the Western Xia and the Southern Song Dynasty. He felt that there would definitely be a time for the two sides to fight in the future.
At this moment, it is the time for them to show their might.
The army led by Ren Yong was obviously not weak, but they were obviously at a disadvantage in the face of the sudden jumping soldiers of the Ming army.
Perhaps it was because such a small army did not have time to organize similar troops. When the Ming army jumped out of the military formation, they did not react and were caught off guard by the Ming army jumped with axe and hammers, smashing the sword and shield with a line.
First, they beat them to the ground, then they swayed their hammer or axe and smashed them down, instantly blew dozens of heads.
The fall of the first-line sword and shield hand provided an excellent opportunity for the Ming army's spearmen. Dozens of spearmen suddenly stabbed through. The Xixia spearmen who had no time to react were stabbed one after another, and blood splashed everywhere and died on the spot.
Then the jumping soldiers stood up and rushed into the Xixia army formation without fear of death, wielding hammers and hand axes to kill the four directions, causing chaos in the Xixia army formation.
The Ming saber and shield hands took advantage of the situation and rushed forward with their shields. They overturned the remaining sword and shield hands in the Xixia army formation in one fell swoop, and squeezed them to the ground. The Xixia army formation was then broken.
Once the military formation was broken and the spearmen were out of protection, their fighting spirit collapsed.
The army collapsed.
Seeing the collapse of the army, Ren Yong was shocked and shouted loudly that he should not be confused, not be shaken, and continue to kill the enemy. However, it was useless. No soldiers obeyed his command.
In desperation, he personally brought a small number of personal soldiers into the formation, trying to turn the situation around with his courage.
He waved his long sword to kill all directions. Generally, Ming soldiers were not his opponents, and he killed several Ming soldiers in succession.
Seeing that this man was acting fiercely with his bravery, the Ming army's jumping soldiers could not tolerate it, so three or five people besieged him, letting the courage to withstand difficulties. He had just swung the iron axe of a jumping soldier. He accidentally did not notice that another jumping soldier who was following him jumped up and waved the iron hammer in his hand and hit his iron helmet.
Ren Yong is a fully armed iron beast. He is tall and can stand on the battlefield and be an indestructible and powerful character. He can take away several lives with a long sword. He is a pure war machine.
However, at this moment, his consciousness was far away from him.
No matter how powerful a man is, he will probably die if he is hammered and opened his head...
So Ren Yong fell heavily to the ground.
With his fall, the blocking force he brought was also completely defeated. Jiang Liangping commanded his troops to advance quickly and continue to seize key military sites in order to completely break through the Xixia Palace.
At the same time, Ren Dejing didn't know about this. He was anxiously waiting for the battle situation on the front line, anxiously waiting for his soldiers to bring him good news that the Miyagi had saved.
In this way, he at least has the last hope, and can make the last struggle, and once again have the capital to negotiate, and can use the lives of everyone in the palace to make a last attempt.
However, Ren Yong did not come back, but his daughter Ren Tai was late.
"Father! I heard that the imperial city has been captured by the Ming army, right?"
Empress Dowager Ren's face was full of panic and fear.
"Didn't I tell you to stay in the harem and not come out and run around? Protect the little emperor! We have to rely on the little emperor as our bargaining chip!"
"Father! It's already this time, what are you still thinking about whether to have a bargaining chip? The Ming army has already fought, right in front of us! They will not let you go, and they will not let you go no matter what! Find a way to escape quickly!"
Empress Dowager Ren pushed Ren Dejing, hoping to push him away.
Ren Dejing grabbed Empress Dowager Ren's hand.
"I can't leave, I can't walk anywhere except here! There is everything I get by doing my best, and everything I need the most! I can't leave here no matter what! No!"
He shook off Empress Dowager Ren's hand and said furiously: "Get out! Get out of the harem! Don't come here! Any problems will be solved here. Don't get in the way here! There is no problem with you here! Come on! Take the Empress Dowager back and don't allow her to come out again!"
Ren Dejing ignored Empress Dowager Ren's final dissuasion and sent troops to take Empress Dowager Ren back to the harem, locked the palace gate, and prevented her from coming out.
After completing all this, Ren Dejing was frightened to learn that the Ming army was not far from the palace where he was. The palace maids and eunuchs who fled from the palace were captured by the Ming army. In order to survive, they led the way and were coming here.
"Where is Ren Yong?! Didn't I ask him to guard the palace gate? Why was the Ming army here? Was he dead?!"
"I don't know! I really don't know! Prime Minister, please leave here as soon as possible! I really can't guard this place! The palace maids and eunuchs are very familiar with the roads here!"
His subordinates anxiously urged Ren Dejing to leave and go to a safer place to hide, but Ren Dejing just didn't want to leave.
"I can't leave. If I leave, I will have nothing."
"Superior State!!"
"I won't leave!"
Ren Dejing insisted on staying in the prime minister's palace, which was renovated in his royal palace, using the last personal guards to defend and insisting on protecting his power, like a tragic gambler who lost to the end and had only one life left.
The Ming army soon arrived at Ren Dejing's Prime Minister's Mansion under the leadership of a group of eunuchs and palace maids, and had a fierce confrontation with the last defenders of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Jiang Liangping commanded the army without much effort to eliminate the last defenders and fully occupied the Prime Minister's Office.
There were also Ren Dejing's loyalty in the prime minister's mansion who tried to resist, such as his close ministers and slaves, who came over with weapons, but they had no combat effectiveness and no chance of winning against the regular army.
So although they were brave and useless, they rushed over without any rules and were killed by the Ming army crossbowmen, and blood was sprinkled on the spot.
Before the rest could react, the Ming army's jumping soldiers rushed to the front, waved their hammers and axes to greet them, and smashed them all down after a meeting.
The difference between a regular army and a scattered warrior is that terrifying.
After passing countless corpses, Jiang Liangping, who was covered in blood, led his troops into the main hall with red eyes and saw Ren Dejing pretending to be calm in the main hall.
In fact, he originally wanted to stand, but because his legs were weak and he couldn't stand, he chose to sit.
"Ren Dejing, I heard that you don't believe that the Ming army will come to you to punish you, right? I'm sorry, now that the Ming army is really here, how do you feel?"
Jiang Liangping walked to Ren Dejing step by step with the blood-stained knife.
Ren Dejing looked at Jiang Liangping who was approaching step by step, and a strong fear and panic rose in his heart for no reason.
At this moment, he seemed to understand Li Renxiao who had been threatened by him in the same way before.
It's really scary, very scary, and I feel a sense of panic that it's difficult to breathe, and I feel that I'll be suffocating to death in the next second.
Why is it so scary?
Ren Dejing couldn't figure it out.
But although his legs are weak, his mouth is hard.
"I don't have any thoughts. I'll just be successful and defeated. You win, I lose."
"The success and defeat of the enemy? You are not qualified to be the king. You are not qualified from beginning to end. You are just a clown who jumps the beam. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty said that even if you jump, you will be killed! What's more, you are not a strong man at all. It's okay for Li Yuanhao to come in person, you? Humph!"
Ren Dejing was a little angry, but this anger was quickly suppressed by strong fear.
"I want to kill you with one knife, but this is too easy for you, it is too good to you. It is not OK. I must capture you, present you to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, and then be executed in public. Only in this way can I be worthy of the great power of the Ming Dynasty!"
Jiang Liangping shouted: "Come here! Bind him up for me!"
The soldiers under Jiang Liangping immediately rushed forward and tied up Ren Dejing, who was sitting on the chair, who was motionless.
Ren Dejing never resisted even a moment, and did not speak out until the end. Perhaps because he knew that he could not survive and his heart was dead, he did not struggle to survive.
I just don’t know if he can remain so calm when he arrives.
Ren Dejing was captured, which represents the complete collapse of the Western Xia coup.
But before this, the entire center of Xixia was almost destroyed.
Ren Dejing killed all the officials who stood up to confront him for his own power, and almost one-quarter of the central officials of the Xixia Xia Dynasty.
While the Ming army was sieging the city, the rioting Xixia soldiers also swept the entire imperial city.
I won’t talk about the palace. Many rioters ran around, killing people, setting fires and looting everywhere. Many Xixia imperial officials’ residences and their families were poisoned by the rioters.
After the Ming army entered the city, the strategic goal was to control military and political areas. It did not calm the madness of the civil unrest in the city at the first time. The second action plan was to restore peace in the city.
So when the Ming army set out to restore stability in the city and kill uncontrolled riot soldiers, not only the people in the city, but also many officials and wealthy families were brutally massacred by the chaos, and many houses were burned down, and the entire Xixia Imperial City was in a mess.
After the Ming army finally completely put down all the riot soldiers in the imperial city, it was already the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the third year of Hongwu, which was the Lantern Festival.
After thorough statistics, Su Haisheng basically confirmed that more than half of the officials in the entire Xixia Central Committee died in this violent chaos, including their family, which were also severely damaged and suffered heavy casualties.
What surprised him was that Ren Dejing only left his daughter as the empress dowager, Li Renxiao's youngest son, Li Chunbao, who was only three years old.
In addition, he killed the entire Xixia royal family, with no man, woman, old and young, all corpses.
According to the instructions of the eunuchs in charge of the royal family affairs of the palace, Ren Dejing even sent people to various places to kill the royal family members who were enfeoffed outside, intending to capture all the Xixia royal family without leaving any troubles.
Ren Dejing was really ready to clear the obstacles for his ascension to the throne and becoming emperor. Leaving a three-year-old baby and his daughter was just a showcase, and the real power must be in his own hands.
He could not leave any obstacles to himself.
As the commander-in-chief of this war, Su Haisheng knew Su Yonglin's ultimate goal, so he felt very happy when he learned the specific situation, because Ren Dejing cleared the obstacles for Su Yonglin's plan.
Thanks to him really.
Otherwise, the royal families in the Xixia Palace would be really difficult to deal with.
Kill it, it has a bad reputation.
If you don’t kill it, it’s annoying to keep it and waste money.
In addition, due to the deaths of a large number of officials and the subsequent purge of officials of the Ren Dejing faction who was in charge of the government, the Xixia government fell into a stagnation.
However, this also laid the foundation for the transformation plan for the Xixia after the Ming Dynasty.
