Chapter 48 The hero breaks his wrist
Hou Xuanyan's guess was right. When Duoduo walked halfway, he received news of the fall of Suzhou. He was furious. Boluo had followed him to fight south and north since he was a child, and was his closest subordinate and relative.
He sent someone to rush to the horse and urgently informed Dorgon that he wanted to fight back to Jiangnan and kill his enemies with his hands. He had already outlined a massacre of the city that was even more cruel and thorough than Yangzhou to calm his anger.
In the majestic Forbidden City, Dorgon, who was addicted to enclosure, did not take it seriously.
What he cared about the most was his nephew, Borobele was actually killed by the southerners. Boro was his confidant, had outstanding military achievements in his hands, and had many Eight Banners soldiers.
The young emperor Fulin and his group, those loyal to Huang Taiji, have been a little restless recently. At this time, one of his generals actually died cowardly at the hands of the Han people, which annoyed Dorgon.
Dorgon immediately ordered his younger brother, Duoduo, the lord of the Inlaid White Banner, to continue to return to the capital. Luo Beilelek Dehun, and Ye Chenzhe, Gushan, returned to Jiangnan and cooperated with Hong Chengchou to attack Jiangnan.
Hong Chengchou had arrived in Xuzhou at this time and was about to arrive in Jinling, which is what the Qing Dynasty called Jiangning.
In Dorgon's eyes, Haoge, Fulin and other sons of Huang Taiji, as well as their Manchu forces, were their biggest concerns. They took a step back and said that they were beaten back outside Shanhaiguan, and as long as they could suppress Fulin, they would still be the Regent.
If Haoge and Fulin were in power, he would die without a place to bury himself. Duoduo was his younger brother of his father and mother, and he had always been both literary and martial, and he also had the white flag in front of him. He must stay by his side at this time.
In Suzhou City, Boluo's two hundred cannons were placed on the top of the city, but unfortunately they were just a fancy air. Hou Xuanyan had no gunpowder in his hand, and he used almost all the gunpowder stocks in Suzhou that night.
Touching the dark cannon barrel, Hou Xuanyan felt distressed. Xu Yuanbao said disapprovingly: "Brother, these things are so heavy, why are you putting them on the city tower to do? You can't shoot fire."
"In this is a deterrent, you know a basket."
"Brother, are we going to fight?"
“…”
As the sun sets, Suzhou city is extremely lively. Xia Yunyi lights a torch and joins his son to recruit soldiers. Gu Yanwu's robe is soaked in sweat, and he is also stepping up the handling of various emergencies. The busy crowd and the tense atmosphere all point out that the war is coming.
Over the sky of Suzhou, even the birds could smell the breath of war. The black crows squatted on the trees, waiting to peck at the corpse.
This atmosphere made Hou Xuanyan feel chest tightness, and he seemed to have a long-standing air in his heart that he couldn't breathe out or swallow it. He witnessed too many tragic scenes, which made him long for a fight and feared him.
He longed for a bloody battle with the invading alien race, which was an opportunity to avenge revenge. But he was afraid of failure. If he was defeated, those compatriots who left their hometowns under the city would even lose the safe haven.
A breeze blew, and Min Zhuang, who had been busy all day, unconsciously let out a comfortable moan. The sweat flowing in his body became a source of coolness at this moment. They were lying on the hot ground with a satisfying look on their faces.
Hou Xuanyan looked at their satisfied expressions and suddenly felt a sense of pride from the bottom of his heart. This is the people I saved, and it is me who saved them from the bumps.
Schindler saved thousands of people, I saved tens of thousands of people, hundreds of thousands of people, and millions of people in the future.
I'm a great man. Haha...
Seeing that his elder brother not only did not answer him, Xu Yuanbao was stunned, and then laughed foolishly.
"Brother, are you okay? Don't scare me, Taoist priest, let me see if my brother is so hot."
Hong Yizhuo glanced at him contemptuously, and said with a lip, "What do you know, "The immortal caresses me, and I will be able to live forever." If you have to record a fairy book, how can you be afraid of cold and heat?"
Hou Xuanyan suddenly spoke and said to Xu Yuanbao: "Fight! Make a bright world and a peaceful and prosperous era." After that, he left Xu Yuanbao who was so scared that he was shocked and walked down the city tower.
"It's over, what am I saying? My brother has become hysterical."
...
In the small city of Jiangyin not far from Suzhou, Yan Yingyuan took the initiative to attack and seized a lot of food and grass while the Qing soldiers were defeated in Suzhou.
The scouts he sent and Pegasus returned, many Qing soldiers appeared in Jiangbei and were gathering in Jingjiang. They seemed to be waiting for something, and they were not in a hurry to cross the river, but they were already plundering ships everywhere.
Chen Mingyu's face was depressed and frowned. After looking at Yan Yingyuan, he lowered his head and said, "Liheng, what should we do this time?"
Yan Yingyuan's resolute face has not changed his expression since the first war started.
"The soldiers come and the generals block the water and the soil come and the water comes and the soil is our home. What's there to be afraid of?"
Although Chen Mingyu was not afraid of death, he was afraid of Jiangyin's elders because they were slaughtered. Jiading and Yangzhou are good examples. Although these two places have resistance, they are incomparable to Jiangyin. It is hard to imagine what kind of hell they would face if Jiangyin was destroyed. He is different from Yan Yingyuan, and his heart is not cruel enough.
In the face of national crisis, Chen Mingyu asked himself to die in the country and did not frown. However, he was unable to make up for his country to die with Jiangyin.
Yan Yingyuan was different. He was determined to lead the entire Jiangyin to die for the Ming Dynasty and the Han Dynasty.
At this time, a soldier rushed in and half-kneeled and said, "Sir, someone is coming from outside the city. It is said that it was sent by Hou Xuanyan, Suzhou."
"Oh? Please invite me quickly." Chen Mingyu and Yan Yingyuan said at the same time.
The soldier brought in a young man who had removed all his weapons and armor. Yan Yingyuan is now the object of resentment of the Qing Dynasty and must be wary of them using some despicable means.
It was not someone else who came, but Fan Xian, who was driven across the Qiantang River by Hou Xuan. After he arrived in Fuzhou, he returned to the north of Qiantang River and the city of Suzhou with Yang Shu.
Yan Yingyuan's face finally changed, with inexplicable hope on his face, and he asked, "What's the matter with you, Lord Xiaohou?"
"Mr. Hou... Uh, Lord Hou asked me to bring a message to the general. The green mountains left are there, and I am not afraid of burning firewood. The general's three months of guarding Jiangyin will be enough to be recorded in history. The gates of Suzhou will always be opened to the people of Jiangyin."
Yan Yingyuan pondered for a moment and said, "I thanked the young man for my good wishes."
Chen Mingyu finally couldn't sit still and interrupted him anxiously: "Liheng!"
Fan Xian interrupted, "Our Lord also asked me to bring a message to the general, those who died in the country, loyal ministers, those who were killed in danger, heroes. If you want to one day attack the Central Plains and restore Shenjing, he will hold a banquet in Suzhou and welcome 80,000 people in Jiangyin."
Yan Yingyuan finally moved and pounded the table hard.
