Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 293
It took almost a whole day for the Ming Dynasty Restoration Army, and by the evening of the day they entered the city, the capital was completely under the control of Bai Mingxiu.

Compared with ordinary sieges, this siege is more complicated because Bai Mingxiu asked to surround all the bannermen in the inner city.In a sense, it is somewhat similar to a "massacre of the city".The Ming army was strong and efficient, so it could be done in one day. Otherwise, a city-wide raid like this would often take several days.

Bai Mingxiu did not let all the Ming troops enter the city, which was meaningless.He has more than 40 troops, and even he is scared.These Ming troops were assigned different tasks by him, some were to chase down the Manchu nobles who escaped from the city, some were to capture other states and counties around Gyeonggi and Zhili, and another group was sent by Bai Mingxiu to Shanhaiguan to seize the gate first. close.

A key factor limiting his use of these armies is logistics. Even though he has harvested quite a lot of supplies from the dungeon, it is enough to support the 40 army for a period of time, but the more troublesome thing is how to ensure the supply line and move all kinds of supplies Delivered to the front line hundreds of kilometers away.It is obviously unreliable to enlist the people temporarily. Bai Mingxiu's method is to directly transfer the soldiers into the heavy soldiers. One division fights and four divisions transport food.The large number of horses and carriages collected in the dungeon played an important role at this time.

Bai Mingxiu did not enter the imperial city on the first night, the Ming army was still conducting a comprehensive search of the imperial city, and gathered the palace people together to prevent any dangerous elements with ulterior motives from remaining.In addition, the Ming army also needed to count all kinds of treasures in the palace. All kinds of antiques, calligraphy and paintings were considered cultural relics, and they would be handed over to the museum in the future, while things like gold and silver would naturally be handed over to the state treasury.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself is temporarily staying in Shichahai, the city is still a bit chaotic at night, and the Ming army is still managing those bannermen who have not had time to escape.

Ma Zouri came to Bai Mingxiu in a hurry, and brought a piece of news that shocked Bai Mingxiu.

"Our detective horses found traces of the army's movements outside the city. Judging from the size, this army has at least 5 to [-] people."

Bai Mingxiu frowned, and said, "Impossible, the last strength of the Qing army has been scooped up in the city. How could there be such a large additional army?"

Ma Zouri said solemnly: "We asked the villagers nearby, and they said that each of these Qing soldiers carried rifles. And the villagers also pointed to the Hanyang made in our soldiers' hands, saying that they were very similar."

"!!!" Bai Mingxiu was really surprised by this.

He asked the system: "System, what's going on here, could it be that the army in the dungeon ran out by itself?"

The system denied it directly: "It is impossible for the phantom army in the challenge mission to jump out of the challenge mission space, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless someone enters the challenge mission space, kills the leader of the phantom army, and takes control of this army."

Bai Mingxiu's complexion was not good, he knew it must be like this.This may be a big hole left by the system. The system can't cheat itself clearly, but it can always leave some beginnings and tails, which makes it very troublesome.

Ma Zouri said at this time: "Your Highness, I am very curious about one thing. Since the level of equipment and training of this army is not low, and it may even get a lot of benefits in the dungeon, why not try to counterattack us?" ?”

Bai Mingxiu smiled, stretched out four fingers, and said, "We have more than 40 divisions and [-] people. No matter who the commander of this weird army is, it is impossible to confront us head-on. He will definitely die."

He even picked a million troops in the dungeon. No matter who this lucky fish slipped through the net, he probably would not have more than one hundred thousand troops. Naturally, he was powerless to deal with Bai Mingxiu.

"The other party walked in a hurry, and didn't even have the idea of ​​staying in the surrounding area to establish a confrontation base. Looking at the direction, it should be going to the grassland in Monan."

Bai Mingxiu touched his chin, and pondered: "In this case, they are either planning to rely on the tribes of Monan Mongolia to fight against us, or they are planning to go back to their customs through Monan Mongolia."

Bai Mingxiu finally added: "Well, there is another possibility."

Ma Zouri asked, "What's possible?"

"They're going west, as far away as possible."

Ma Zouri was a little surprised: "Fleeing to the west, do you want to flee to Moxi, to the Western Regions?"

At that time, Yelu Dashi took the Khitan people to flee westward, established the Xiliao in the Western Regions, and maintained them until the Mongol Empire went west and completely wiped them out.After all, there are old things ahead, and it is hard to guarantee that there will be no imitators.

Bai Mingxiu smiled and said, "I don't know why, but I have a hunch that this group of people may escape further."

Ma Zouri asked again: "Is Your Highness not worried?"

"What is there to worry about? Enemies who run away with their tails between their legs because they are afraid of us are not worthy of fear. Besides, I will deal with them sooner or later. Since they are running to Mongolia, let's go. Our primary goal is We must take good care of the Han land in Guannei, and then we can look outward."

In fact, Bai Mingxiu was well-prepared in terms of military strength. One dungeon allowed him to expand his army to a crazy level. It is so easy to talk about hundreds of thousands of troops fighting and killing. War is a very delicate science.

The two stood by the seaside of Shicha, and could occasionally hear the commotion in the inner city.The inner city bannermen who had been arrested were weeping and imprisoned. They didn't know what fate awaited them.Bai Mingxiu listened to all kinds of voices in the world, if he didn't have compassion in his heart, it must be fake, but Bai Mingxiu knew that he couldn't give in on this kind of principled issue.

The crimes committed by the Tartars against the Han people and the Ming Dynasty must be repaid, and this is a non-negotiable matter.The Chinese probably have been too lenient and benevolent since ancient times and lost justice, and now Bai Mingxiu is going to correct this thing.

The city's population of nearly 20 bannermen is basically the last remaining seed of the Tatars.Bai Mingxiu believed that there were indeed some who escaped, but it was impossible for them to become successful.The small-scale population will eventually be assimilated into other ethnic groups, and with the tens of thousands of troops mixed with the phantom army and fugitive Tartars in the dungeon, Bai Mingxiu suddenly had some very evil thoughts.

"It's not difficult to destroy them, but it seems more interesting to keep them and use their surplus value. Anyway, in the Han area of ​​the Central Plains, the name Manchurians will follow the Xiongnu, Rouran, and Jiedi from today onwards." His name has disappeared into the mist of history."
