330 Traitor

The reason why this happens is because Lu Xiangsheng is powerful. In fact, not many people in Jianlu know about it. Those who know Lu Xiangsheng's power will not promote it to Lu Xiangsheng.

So, in the eyes of anyone, a civil official is just a civil servant, even if he is good at literary and martial arts, can he still shoot something?

Of course, when things come to an end, for example, if Turg was here, they would definitely remind them to pay attention. After all, when he was outside Jiajiazhuang, he suffered from Lu Xiangsheng's losses.

Even if Haoge is here, he will definitely remind him to pay attention, because he also knows about Turge. However, at this time, he has not arrived with the vanguard, and now the people in Lushun City are all his vanguard and horse-striking troops.

So, a tragic scene happened.

No one expected that Lu Xiangsheng's arm strength was so strong that his hard bow shot was far beyond their expectations. The arrows shot from his hard bow really arrived in the blink of an eye, and the speed was so fast that even if he could dodge the first arrow, he would never be able to dodge the second arrow.

The sound of "bangbangbang..." sounded, and a scream came from outside the city.

I saw the Jianlu taking off his pants shoot an arrow and hit the bull's eye. He takes the Jianlu and nails him to the ground.

The four or five Jianlu who were with him were easier to dodge than this unlucky person. However, after dodging the first arrow, he did not dodge the second arrow. In almost the blink of an eye, the small group of Jianlu prodding horses were all lying on the ground, leaving only one breath, and struggled before his death, and then he stopped moving.

During this process, whether it was the Ming army soldiers on the top of the city or other campers outside the city, they all looked at this scene blankly, looking at the unlucky people, the look of surprise on their faces should not be too obvious. Obviously, the scene in front of them seemed to be beyond their understanding.

On the top of the city, Lu Xiangsheng shot a pot of arrows in one breath. Seeing that the effect was good, he threw the skills back to his personal guards, then waved his arm and said lightly: "I'm still old, it's just a pot of arrows. This hand is a little sour!"

Hearing this, Gao Yigong next to him came to his senses, closed his mouth that he had opened at some point, and then said in surprise: "Sir, I didn't expect... I didn't expect... Is it so powerful!"

After stuttering for a while, he was completely convinced. However, he felt that this was too incompetent and could not express his surprise at all.

Lu Xiangsheng didn't say anything, but a personal guard who had followed Lu Xiangsheng for many years said to Gao Yigong with a smile: "What's this? When I was old, I could shoot two pots of arrows in one breath without blinking my eyes, and I would never leave the target!"

After listening to the first year of high school, I had a new understanding of Lu Xiangsheng.

If he was afraid of Lu Xiangsheng's identity before, and admired his ability to command troops and his way of commanding soldiers as much as his son, then at this time, Gao Yigong was completely convinced by Lu Xiangsheng!

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a thunderous sound from the city: "Governor General!"

"The Ming Dynasty has won thousands of victories!"

“…”

The morale of the Ming army guarding the city has been directly improved by several levels. If there is a progress bar that can be displayed, it will be full!

The Governor's archery skill has conquered the hearts of all Ming soldiers!

The Tartars outside the city did not respond to the Ming army on the top of the city. They all retreated tacitly and retreated, and they were far away from the retreat of an arrow. After a long time, several Jianlu stepped forward in fear and robbed the bodies of the Jianlu back like thieves.

After a long time, Jianlu felt that this was too depressed by his morale, so he shouted from afar: "The Batulu of our Qing Dynasty has not arrived, otherwise you can't shoot to death!"

What responded to them was a booing sound on the top of the city: "Oh..."

Anyway, no matter what they said, the Ming soldiers on the top of the city didn't care at all. What's wrong with the legendary Jianlu? He is still an elite force, so he still became the ghost under the arrow of the Governor!

The morale dispute that we met for the first time ended like this!

When the sun was about to set, Haoge led the vanguard troops and arrived excitedly. However, the first thing he saw was the bodies of the men who were shot to death by Lu Xiangsheng.

Hearing his subordinates' reports, Haoge immediately remembered that among the Ming army, Lu Xiangsheng was the most unprovoked. Even in Jiajiazhuang, Lu Xiangsheng, a madman, could open the door to charge forward. Even if he was as proud as him, he had to admit that when Lu Xiangsheng got mad, it would be best not to appear in front of him.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Haoge looked at the "Lu" flag flying on Lushun City in the distance. After a while, he ordered to retreat and set up a camp for ten miles. He also ordered to be on guard against the madman Lu Xiangsheng's camp.

As a result, nothing happened overnight, and the next day, the sun rose as usual.

This time, Haoge did not let his subordinates do something stupid. He surrounded Lushun in a normal manner, cleaned up the surrounding areas, and prepared for the subsequent arrival of the army.

What made him a little strange was that there was no navy from the Ming Kingdom in Lushun Harbor. Not only did there be no warships, but there were even transport ships.

"Where have the Ming army's ships gone?" Haoge couldn't help thinking, "Is it possible that the Ming navy has fled back when he knew the Qing Dynasty was coming to attack? Or maybe Lu Xiangsheng, a lunatic, wanted to imitate the ancients and fight back?"

After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking it. He just sent someone back to report to the commander of the central army Dai Shan.

Two days later, Kong Youde's Han army and Daishan's main force arrived. Suddenly, around Lushun, it can be said that Jianlu military camps were everywhere. Just looking at this posture, you can know that the military forces on both sides are not at the same level at all.

At the beginning, the Ming army soldiers became a little nervous when they saw so many Jianlu appearing. After all, they were born into thieves and encountered superior enemies, and they were almost instinctive to escape.

However, when Lu Xiangsheng came over and the Ming soldiers saw Lu Xiangsheng's tall figure, all the insecurity disappeared.

The Governor is here, and he is still afraid of a ball!

Dai Shan received Haoge's report, and now he saw it again, but he didn't see the Ming Navy, which made him very surprised. However, he was not worried and did not guess why this happened. He just smiled and said, "In this way, I am not afraid that this Ming army will run away. One day, no, two days, I will see Lu Xiangsheng's head!"

"Zhe!" Both Manchu and Han generals responded in unison, full of confidence.

In their eyes, Lushun City is not big, and it can only accommodate four or five thousand people at most. What’s more important is that the city wall is too short, only about two feet high. Not to mention that they have seen the city wall of the Ming Dynasty capital, it is more than four to five feet high. Just say that the Jinzhou City nearest to this place in Liaodong is three feet high. The shorter the city wall, the easier it is to attack the city? This is a consensus!

The siege ladders, collision cars and chariots are troublesome to transport them from afar. Anyway, there are Han craftsmen in the army who can use local materials and can be quickly built. As for the catapult carts, because artillery is transported, there is no need to be built anymore.

Therefore, after Dai Shan gave the order, the Qing soldiers were ready to fight and waited for the attack equipment to be built before attacking. They just went down in one go and made military achievements.

With the arrival of the Qing army, their horses revived, approaching the city wall from time to time, harassing the city, forcing the defenders on the city to cheer up, increase their vigilance, and consume their energy.

This trick is useless in front of Lu Xiangsheng. Beware of the lookout whistle, and rest when it is time to rest, and the rotation will be rotated. As Lu Xiangsheng's figure swayed everywhere, the Ming soldiers were very at ease.

The Qing soldiers outside the city were busy busying themselves. One of them was hiding in the distance and quietly looking at Lushun, with a bit complicated expression. He was just obedient to King Kong Youde.

He never expected that a few years after the destruction of Dongjiang Town, the Ming Dynasty would have a governor-level official who could trap the lonely city with ordinary soldiers of the Ming army.

He didn't believe that Lu Xiangsheng had no time to leave and was forced to stay here. After all, there was a navy before the Ming army, and the Qing army came from afar, which gave Lu Xiangsheng enough time to find excuses to leave.

It would be unreasonable to say that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty issued an order to let civil servants at the level of governor-level stationed in Lushun. After all, the Governor Denglai had been in charge of Dongjiang before, and he had never seen the Governor Denglai inspect the Dongjiang Town. It was obvious that a rank-in official came to Lushun to die, even the emperor should not be able to do it!

Kong Youde thought for a long time and couldn't figure out why Lu Xiangsheng was here. At this time, he looked at Lushun City, but he was actually a little envious. Although they were destined to be unable to defend Lushun City, there was a governor who could live and die with them ordinary Ming troops, which was worth it in his life?

As he thought about it, his thoughts couldn't help but think of the past again.

Kong Youde was a miner from Tieling. Like all the Han people in Liaodong, he had a grudge against wild boar skin. He joined Mao Wenlong with his elder brother Kong Youxing to fight the Tartars, and he was promoted to the general of the rank of the general. He was always grateful to Mao Wenlong. Even though he later surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and became the King of Cong Shu, he was still respectful to Mao Wenlong.

In fact, it was not just Kong Youde, but the Han people in Liaodong who were almost grateful to Mao Wenlong. Because Mao Wenlong gave them hope, they had a place to escape. Only Mao Wenlong, even if the weapons were broken and there was no military pay, could still lead the beggars army to attack the hinterland of Liaodong.

It’s just a pity that Mao Wenlong died at the hands of Yuan Chonghuan, and then the Dongjiang Army had no leader with enough prestige. It would be impossible to continue fighting with Jianlu in such a difficult environment.

Later, Kong Youde met Sun Yuanhua, the second very important Ming official in his life. However, things went against his wishes. In the end, when he was rushing to help the Daling River, he was forced to rebel by local tyrants and soldiers. Without a way out, he finally crossed the sea and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, his original enemy.

In the original history, when he later joined the Qing Dynasty and conquered the world for the Qing Dynasty, some things actually proved that his monk was happy was different.

In June of the fifth year of Shunzhi, Kong Youde arrived in Wuchang to wait for the order to change defense. During this period, Jin Shenghuan and Li Chengdong rebelled against the Qing Dynasty. The Qing army from all over the country asked Kong Youde for help, but Kong Youde did not send a single army or a soldier.

In November of the seventh year of Shunzhi, Kong Youde led the Qing army to defeat Guilin and captured Zhang Tongchang, the important minister of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Qu Shisi and Zhu Hengyi, the King of Jingjiang. At the beginning, he treated them like a guest of honor. Later, because he intercepted Qu Shisi's secret order to secretly invite Jiao Lian to attack the city, he executed Qu and Zhang at the foot of Xianhe Ridge in Fengdong Mountain, Guilin, while Zhu Hengyi, the King of Jingjiang, was hanged in a house outside the west gate. His approach was completely different from Wu Sangui strangled Emperor Yongli himself, let alone Shang Kexi. Later, Kong Youde was defeated by Li Dingguo and eventually committed suicide.

There was a saying in later generations that Kong Youde was the chief evil of the traitors in the late Ming Dynasty, but this is because Kong Youde killed the famous Zhang Tongchang, Qu Shisi, and the literary pens, sometimes more powerful than swords and guns. This is it.

To really talk about the contributions of the Han people to the Qing Dynasty in the late Ming Dynasty, at least before Kong Youde were Fan Wencheng, Hong Chengchou and others, and one of their strategies was more than a few Kong Youdes; in addition, in terms of loyalty to the Qing Dynasty, at least Shang Kexi was loyal to him. If it weren't for him, the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty might have been rewritten; and to say that the worst influence was Li Yongfang, the Ming Dynasty's border general who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, set a precedent for the Ming Dynasty to surrender to Jianlu.

Except for the old generals of Dongjiang, the Ming Dynasty never treated the other people who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. What is the integrity of the so-called scholars?

Of course, Kong Youde naturally didn't know these things at this time. At this time, he only had confusion and admiration for Lu Xiangsheng.

The next morning, the sound of "wow" horns in the Qing army immediately sounded. The Qing soldiers who were full of food began to come out in formation. Some carried the ladders, some carried the rushing wood, and some pushed the carts to start the battle to attack Lushun.

Kong Youde's Tianyou soldiers, pushing the cannons, also began to line up in the north of Lushun City, preparing to bombard Lushun City.

Daishan was surrounded by generals and watched the formation from a distance. From time to time, Tartar soldiers received orders and ran in front of the army, and the war was about to break out.

Everyone was looking at the artillery positions, watching the artillery look up the distance, and then pushing the artillery, finding the right position, and busy in a nervous and orderly manner.

They could not have imagined that before the arrival of the Qing army, Lu Xiangsheng had already made shelling marks outside the city according to Emperor Chongzhen's previous proposal. Therefore, after watching the artillery of the Tartars outside the city push to the mark, he immediately ordered to attack freely according to the pre-prepared elevation angle and gunpowder dosage.

Dai Shan kept watching and saw Kong Youde's Tianyou soldiers busy. Suddenly, he saw thick smoke suddenly appear on the top of the city wall of Lushun. Then, he heard the sound of "boom".

Suddenly, he was shocked and the Ming army fired the fire first!
