Chapter 256 The imperial commander personally conquers Xinhui (please subscribe!)

Chen Yonghua stood beside Zhu Kezang, looking at his extremely angry look, and asked: "Qinshe, what do you want to do?"

Zhu Kezang was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Father-in-law, I don't want such a city full of sin and filth to continue to exist."

Chen Yonghua was startled and asked: "Qinshe, don't be impulsive. It's been almost thirty years. It's estimated that not many of those cannibals are still alive. There's no need to massacre the city!"

Zhu Kezang shook his head: "The new Ming Dynasty cannot do such a thing to massacre the city of Guangdong, but it will be disgusting if this sinful city continues to exist."

The new club must be destroyed!

Zhu Kezang planned to wait for the Ming Dynasty to capture Xinhui City, move all the people in the city to Luzon to increase the population, and then use explosives to level the city.

"I want to personally witness the destruction of this city!"

It was only a day's journey from Guangzhou's Fucheng to Xinhui. Zhu Kezang looked at the county seat in the distance. At this time, the city gate was closed tightly, and everyone could feel a dull and solemn atmosphere.

The 12,000 troops of the Second Town of the Ming Guards Army have been arrayed in order and surrounded the county.

What if this group of people went crazy and cooked him first to reward the army?

On the contrary, the guard who had some military knowledge and no knowledge of history looked at the people in front of him with a look of disbelief on his face.

Li Dingguo, the king of Jin Dynasty in Ming Dynasty, failed to break Xinhui for ten months, while Zhu Kezang only used one round of artillery bombardment.

In order to quickly decide the battle, Zhu Kezang brought in the 68-pound short heavy cannon used in battleships and fired explosive shells, which were extremely powerful. Xinhui did not have a very strong city wall, but it was just a round of shelling.

Zhu Kezang would never be able to do this kind of propaganda in front of the city in person.

If the Qing army in Xinhuicheng suddenly had a whim and fired a precise red cannon, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing that replicated the story of Yuan Chonghuan and Nurhaci?

There was chaos and crying everywhere in the city. The new members begged for mercy, and some wanted to bribe them with money, but the soldiers in the Second Town of the Guards remained unmoved.

Everyone complimented each other and felt much more at ease.

"We are all loyal ministers of the Qing Dynasty, loyal to the Qing Dynasty, and loyal to the Holy One. How can we surrender lightly in front of hypocrisy?"

After they controlled the situation in the city, the Guards drove out all the people in Xinhui City.

Wang Xianwu sent soldiers from the Second Town to rush into Xinhui City directly on the collapsed city wall, without any resistance from the Qing army throughout the process.

He was almost eaten. If his mother hadn't voluntarily sacrificed her life to protect him, he would never have had the chance to grow up.

Facing Xinhui City, the county magistrate Tan Wenchong and the Qing army garrison gathered together, as did the old gentry in the city.

The Qing garrison hurriedly ran out to take a look and saw that the city wall directly opposite the street collapsed.

At Zhu Kezang's signal, Wang Xianwu rode forward and shouted to the city: "Hurry up and offer the city."

After all, there are only more than a thousand Qing troops, so no one dares to fight against the Guards.

At this time, the defender was quite worried and said: "The Puppet Ming army is coming fiercely. The Puppet Ming Emperor even came to Xinhui in person, determined to break the city. The Xinhui defenders only have a thousand people. They can't defeat it, so why not

Kaicheng, surrender."

He was a man of conscience, but when he thought that these people would eat people, he did not dare to continue to propose surrender.

The soldiers of the Ming Guards behind Wang Xianwu also shouted: "Dedicate the city quickly!"

Because the Ming army arrived suddenly and the brave people in the city were not organized, the words of resolute resistance were just the words of the gentry and had not yet been put into practice.

But even so, Xinhui remained stubborn and closed the city gate tightly, as if he didn't see the Tomorrow's Army outside.

It was these old men, many of whom had eaten their own families and the old and weak in the city. Their faces were all glowing at this time.

As soon as he said this, the other gentry in the new society all nodded in agreement.

County Magistrate Tan Wencong is from Xinhui and is now forty years old. When the Battle of Xinhui happened, he was still a child.

Everyone was talking enthusiastically, but no one took the thousands of Ming troops outside the city seriously. Instead, they were afraid of the Qing troops thousands of miles away.

If Zhu Kezang dies, the new Ming Dynasty will fall apart.

Xinhui County was destroyed without any psychological expectations, and it was completely destroyed.

The shouting was loud and very scary.

He didn't want to die, so he slammed the table excitedly and said angrily: "Are you all fools? There are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Pseudo-Ming army outside. There are rumors that the Pseudo-Ming emperor is the reincarnation of a saint. In addition, the Pseudo-Ming cannons are powerful.

We have sharp firearms and can do sorcery. We only have a thousand people waiting for us, so why should we defend it to the death?"

But in County Magistrate Tan Wencong's mind, all he could see were these people holding human flesh in their hands and feasting on it.

Everyone in the hall, except for the magistrate and the guards, felt confident. Suddenly, there was a loud noise that no one expected, and the whole earth trembled.

"Don't forget the chaste women who sacrificed themselves to defend the city."

"It's broken, the city is broken!" The guard collapsed to the ground helplessly, this was too damn fast.

Including the Qing garrison, the county magistrate Tan Wencong, and the gentry were all arrested and sent out of the city.

The county magistrate Tan Wencong also wanted to surrender, but before he opened his mouth, an old man from a prominent family in the city named Chen said: "My lords, you must not do this! How can you forget the battle thirty years ago? Ruoming

When the army enters the city, the Qing army will come back again. They will definitely be angry at my Xinhui people for betraying the Ming Dynasty, and they will definitely punish us. In turn, the Xinhui army will be defeated by the Qing army, and Xinhui people will definitely be killed.

Everyone is going to die!"

Some people even insist on putting on a big hat, either loyalty, filial piety or honor.

At this time, the number of Qing troops defending the county town was only a thousand, and they were unable to compete with Zhu Kezang's army.

County Magistrate Tan Wencong looked at the people in front of him without saying a word.

Tens of thousands of people, more or less, were all driven out of the city.

Therefore, Zhu Kezang is very stable and micro-management is enough. There is no need to do it personally.

How to hold on, it’s just cannibalism!

"We can't surrender. If we surrender, Xinhui will be slaughtered."

The old man surnamed Chen from before tapped his cane, stared at the guards with firm eyes, and said: "It doesn't matter, there are not enough soldiers. Each family in Xinhui will send servants and children to make up for it. If the siege of eight years ago happens again, we...

…We can survive it.”

Zhu Kezang quickly ordered people to conduct screening activities. Anyone who came to Xinhui after the tragedy thirty years ago could be loosened, their family money and food could be returned to them, and they could be registered and promised to go.

Luzon Island will distribute fertile land and slaves to Luzon people!

It seemed that they were quite moved. Although these innocent Xinhui people were a little uneasy, looking at these Tomorrow's Army, they looked ferocious, but in fact they didn't take their property or grab food at all, so they seemed to be able to go with peace of mind.

However, all those who participated in the defense of the city thirty years ago were forced to stay.

What to do is self-evident!
