Chapter 351

Once the soldiers and horses control the city gate, the subsequent battle will go smoothly.

The military and political system established by Puxian Wannu in Xianping Mansion almost completely abandoned the original system of the imperial court, and purely adopted the model of tribal clansmen. Steady, share the leadership of the military and government.

In the past few years, with the concentration of his power, the civil and military officials sent by the imperial court, such as Wen Dihan Gebuai, the prefect of Quantong, Pei Man, the judge of Quan, Liang Chisheng, the experience officer, etc., have all been emptied.

This way, Puxian Wannu can act without any scruples, but at this time, when his three righteous sons who stayed in Xianping Mansion were killed one after another, who in the city would stand up and take command?

I heard those soldiers rampaging in the city, shouting that Puxian Wannu rebelled, and the imperial army suppressed the rebellion.

The imperial army said so, no one in Xianping Mansion could count on it anymore, but whether Puxian Wannu had the intention of rebelling, no one else knew, and the people in Xianping Mansion could still pretend not to know?

They may support Puxian Wannu, or they may secretly oppose it, but in any case, at this time, most of the famous officials are behind closed doors and will never show their heads.

As a result, the defenders of Xianping Mansion fell into a state of fighting on their own, taking care of one thing and losing another.In terms of personal force, these soldiers from various ethnic groups in the Northeast are quite brave.But the bravery of a man cannot stand against an established and organized army.

When Li Ting's troops launched an offensive along the city wall and captured the four gates, Ding's navy continued to enter the city, and the scattered defenders all retreated.In less than an hour, all the warehouses, barracks, government offices and other buildings in the city changed hands, and the remnants of the army ran around the city like chickens without their heads.

Guo Ning also sent a small group of troops to pursue them. A few of Puxian Wannu's elite troops fought to the end, and Zhao Jue, Zhang Qian and other generals came out and wiped them out.On the other hand, Heshi Liehuanduan, relying on his local reputation in Liaodong, persuaded several remnants to surrender in succession.

Before dawn, the entire Xianping Mansion was quiet and the war was over.

The several fires that had been lit before to shock the enemy army were also extinguished one after another. The people who had fled in all directions began to return to the ruins everywhere to pack up the remaining belongings.

As for appeasing the hearts of the people, restoring order, rectifying the surrender, rearranging the defense of the city, etc., there are also veterans in the Ding Navy.

Guo Ning and Heshi Liehuan walked side by side along the avenue in the city, and arrived at the gate of Puxian Wannu's handsome mansion.This is the place where Puxian Wannu has been staying for the past few years, and it is also his comfort zone.Although Puxian Wannu always claimed that he wanted to restore the strong and simple character of the Jurchens, Guo Ning stood in front of the door and looked inside by the light of the fire. He saw several majestic and magnificent buildings, but they may not be so simple.

Wearing heavy armor, Zhang Qian came out of the commander's mansion with clanging footsteps. He saluted and said: "This place has been cleaned up, and all irrelevant people have been dispersed. The commander-in-chief can move in at any time."

The so-called irrelevant people are nothing more than Puxian Wannu's wives, concubines, children, and even hundreds of servants and maidservants.

Guo Ning once specifically ordered that the wives, concubines and children of Puxian Wannu should not be treated harshly in the future, and they should find a place to circle them tightly and keep them under strict supervision.As for the servants and maidservants, they were not treated so well. The soldiers who attacked the commander's mansion first selected the beautiful and graceful ones in private, and divided them up a lot.

For the contemporary army, women are a kind of trophies just like money, food, and weapons.Guo Ning is not good at these things, but he is not demanding.

However, listening to Zhang Qian's report at this time, Guo Ning did not move.

Zhang Qian peeked at Guo Ning, his forehead was a little sweaty, and he quickly bowed and said: "In the commander's mansion, there is also a secret storehouse where Puxian and Wannu store gold and silver treasures. This and this, when they were fighting just now, they suffered a little loss."But generally everything is fine, I have sent someone to seal it up, and they are all staring at it. "

Guo Ning still did not move.

Zhang Qian raised his head suspiciously again, only to see Guo Ning half turn around, looking at a military camp to the east of Jieshuai Mansion.

"That's a good place!" Guo Ning said bluntly, "Zhang Qian, you all need to withdraw, don't take what you shouldn't, and come with me to the barracks."

"This... as ordered."

Guo Ning turned to Heshi Liehuanduan: "Heshi Lie Dutong, I asked you yesterday, this place in Xianping Mansion is a treasure land, do you have any intentions?"

Heshi Liehuan was taken aback, he glanced at Guo Ning several times, and then asked, "Guo Jiedu, are you serious?"

Guo Ning nodded casually: "Of course. After taking down Xianping Mansion, someone must guard it. Someone must replace Puxian Wannu and stabilize the situation in Liaodong for the court. This person... can't be me, right?"

Heshi Liehuan let out a heavy breath.

On this trip, he tossed and turned every day, always worried that Guo Ning would turn his back on his word and seize Liaodong with the strength of Laizhou.

He is a local snake in Liaodong, so he is not afraid that Guo Ning will not keep his promise, which will hurt his life.What he was afraid of was that if the various armies really fought on a large scale, the Mongols would definitely fish in troubled waters.At that time, the territory of the Ding Navy will be separated from Liaodong by the strait, and it will inevitably be exhausted. However, Heshi Liehuanduan himself will become the sinner who instigated internal strife and caused the northeast to fall into the hands of the Mongolian army.

However, it seems that Guo Ning really has no intention of occupying Liaodong.

Is he really going to give me Xianping Mansion?

While hesitating, Guo Ning asked: "Puxian Wannu occupies this place, at least blocking the way for the Mongolian army to advance eastward. Heshi Lie is in charge, can you do it?"

He Shi Liehuan Duan's face flushed red, mustered all his strength, and said loudly: "I can do it!"

"Then it's over?" Guo Ning said relaxedly: "You will enter the commander-in-chief's mansion today, put on the posture of taking over the Xuanfu envoy of Liaodong, and then find some officials, write and recommend them together, and say that you should follow the power urgently. I have no choice but to overstep and implore the court to ratify it afterwards. Haha, there must be quite a few officials in Xianping Mansion who are willing to cooperate."

Heshi Liehuanduan thought for a while, and bowed to Guo Ning: "Guo Jiedu is so righteous, and I, Heshiliehuanduan, promised to do it one by one."

"Hahaha, that's good." Guo Ning waved his hand: "After a night of fierce fighting, you are also tired. Let's break up and have a good rest. From now on, the mainland of Northeast China will not stop, let's keep our spirits up, It's easy to deal with."

Heshi Liehuanduan couldn't help asking: "Why can't you stop? Guo Jiedu, what do you know? Puxian Wannu's troops are still in Hanzhou, is it related to that army?"

Guo Ning turned around and left, as if he didn't hear him.

Heshi Liehuan wanted to catch up and ask carefully, but couldn't help but look inside the commander's mansion.Thinking of the meaning of occupying this place, thinking of his family living in Fuzhou for several years, and finally having the opportunity to control greater power and do something for the Dajin Kingdom... His heart was burning, and he walked back and forth twice at the gate of the commander's mansion , and finally stepped inside.

Except for the soldiers and horses who were on duty on duty, the soldiers went to the guarded camps to rest.

In a blink of an eye, the sky was bright, and in a blink of an eye, most of the day passed.

Before and after Weishi, Li Ting, appointed by Guo Ning to be in charge of the city defense, sat on the top of the city with a big horse.The summer sun shone, making the armor all over his body sparkle.

The sun was too hot, the leaves of the armor were hot, especially the thick iron leaves on the shoulders, still scalding the skin through the cloth shirt inside the armor.

Li Ting could almost hear his skin sizzling, but he was really satisfied with his majestic posture, and he was even more reluctant to leave the awe-inspiring eyes of many residents in the city, so he decided to endure the pain of flesh and blood, and continue to be majestic for a while.

Li Yun, who was sitting next to Li Ting, was already panicking from the heat.He drank water from a large basin, put down the basin, and took a fan to fan his brother.

He had always been in awe of his elder brother, this time his elder brother sent an army to rescue him, and last night he heard about his elder brother's deed of going to the city without avoiding the arrows and stones, he was so moved that he hugged his elder brother on the spot and cried twice.

On the contrary, Li Ting was calmer.When he didn't see Li Yun, he was so worried that he didn't think about eating and drinking, and he was irritable and wanted to fight with others all day long.Seeing that Li Yun was safe and sound, he once again put on airs like a big brother and a general.

"What a pity!" Li Ting sighed.

"What's the pity, brother?" Li Yun asked obediently.

"It's a pity that our commander-in-chief has an order, and the flag will not be changed in the city. Otherwise, wouldn't it be more majestic to fly my general flag of Li Erlang?" Li Ting raised his hand and gestured: "There are less general flags here, and I always feel that the momentum is not enough. It's so bad."

"Then... the old banner is not changed, why not add two new ones?" Li Yun asked jokingly.

Li Ting shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, it's serious and useful to keep the banner of Puxian Wannu on purpose. Not today, but tomorrow! At this time, there is no need to give birth to..."

Before the words fell, a Qingqi from outside the city turned back, and immediately the knight raised his head towards the city and shouted loudly: "Military information urgent report! Emergency report! Open the door!"

Martial law is still in the city, so the city gates are closed.The lieutenant guarding the city hurriedly led the men down, and opened the door to let the knight in.

The door was half opened, and the knights squeezed in, and then they whipped their horses and galloped to the military camp in the city.

"That's Ni Yi!" Li Yun was a little nervous: "Looking at his posture, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter?"

Li Ting patted Li Yun on the shoulder: "Of course it's not a trivial matter... We are in a hurry to take down Xianping Mansion just for this moment. Don't panic."
