Chapter 245: Understanding current affairs (revision)

Due to Bai Guangen's timely surrender, no one from the Shanhaiguan garrison escaped. As a result, the news that Shanhaiguan fell into Ying Yi's hands was tightly blocked.

Shanhaiguan is a military town with no civilians living there, thus eliminating most factors that could leak information.

More than 14,000 surrendered troops were disarmed and detained in the military camp. They were guarded by a group of elite soldiers to ensure that nothing went wrong. Wang Yisheng and Bai Guangen came on horseback. After dismounting, Bai Guangen leaned beside Wang Yisheng, one step behind, and said very respectfully: "There were originally more than 24,000 people in Shanhaiguan, 10,000 of whom were from the headquarters of the criminal generals, and 14,000 They are soldiers of Wu Sangui. Wu Sangui went to Ningyuan yesterday and took away five thousand people..."

There were more than 19,000 soldiers and horses in Shanhaiguan when Ying Yi attacked. About five thousand were killed under the sword, leaving more than 14,000. Of these 14,000 people, about 8,000 were the remaining soldiers and horses of Bai Guangen's headquarters, and the other 6,000 were Wu Sangui's soldiers and horses.

The main target of this purge is the six thousand troops directly under Wu Sangui.

Bai Guangen stretched out his hand and said slightly: "General Wang, go first."

When the two of them entered, hundreds of golden-armored guards followed behind them. Not long after, there was a noise, an occasional scream, and then a human head was thrown out of the camp.

This continued until the afternoon, when more than two hundred heads piled up outside the camp gate, and the noise in the camp gradually subsided. Soon Wang Yisheng and Bai Guangen walked out of the camp.

Wang Yisheng said: "After the matter is over, you can follow me to see the lord."

Bai Guangen didn't get what he asked for, so he immediately bowed and said: "General Wang, please."

Then he went all the way back to the General Military Mansion to see Ying Yi.

At this time, Ying Yi had already talked with two monks, Zhenren Zhang and Zhenren Wang. When he saw the soldiers coming to report, he called them into the hall.

"But the selection has been completed?"

Wang Yisheng beat his chest and held his fists: "Back to my lord, the selection has been completed. Anyone who is stubborn and stubborn under Wu Sangui will be killed."

Ying Yi nodded: "Okay."

Then he said to Bai Guangen: "The matter is urgent. After all, the Donglu army is here."

Bai Guangen immediately said: "The guilty general will set off for the front guard."

Ying Yi said: "Okay."

Then he said: "Wang Yisheng, dispatch a hundred personal guards to protect Bai Guangen."

"yes."

"Go." Ying Yi waved his hand and dismissed the two of them.

Not long after, Wang Yisheng came again and said, "Bai Guangen has already set off."

Ying Yi smiled and said, "Do you think Bai Guangen will be honest?"

Wang Yisheng nodded without hesitation and said: "It is a lucky coincidence for him to belong to the Lord. How dare he be dishonest?"

Ying Yi laughed and nodded slightly: "Whether he is honest or not, in fact, for me, the impact is not very big. As long as Shanhaiguan is controlled, what will happen if the Tatars reach the lower reaches of the pass? If Ningyuan is lost, the Tatars will not be lost. Whether the child is possessed or not is not difficult or not difficult for me, but easy or very easy.”

Wang Yisheng grinned.

Ying Yi waved his hand and said: "After all, the tens of thousands of Liaodong Army can be considered the most elite force of the Ming Dynasty. Pick and choose, at least you can select some soldiers who are worthy of use and have battle experience. What are you going to do next? What we do is to select and eliminate them.”

After a pause, he said: "Three days, I'll give you three days. The 14,000 people in custody must be selected. All the old and weak will be eliminated, and only the young and strong will be eliminated. Then they will be reorganized."

"Here."

Ying Yi added: "Let's send a message to Liu Deyi, so that he can feel at ease. Tell him not to move for the time being until I clear up Guan Ning's front line."

"Here."

In the next three days, the theme of Shanhaiguan is selection and elimination.

There were more than 14,000 soldiers and horses, of which more than 5,000 were from Dingbiao camp, the subordinates of the Ming army's surrendered generals, and only 8,000 to 9,000 were ordinary soldiers.

There is absolutely no servant Ding Biao camp here in Ying Yi. All should be selected, broken up, and reorganized. As for those surrendered generals, they dare not have the slightest opinion. Even if you have opinions, you can only bury them in your stomach.

...

Not to mention Shanhaiguan.

Just talk about Bai Guangen.

Bai Guangen, escorted by a team of golden-armored guards, left Shanhaiguan and arrived at Guangning Zhongqian in less than half an hour.

As a small military town, Guangning Zhongqiansuo has an extremely advantageous geographical location. The military town is close to the mountain and faces the road. It is in a condescending position. If the enemy troops pass through here, they will definitely suffer a brutal blow.

There are more than 2,000 soldiers stationed in Zhongqian, two thousand households, one master and one deputy.

When Bai Guangen arrived at Zhongqiansuo, he had already been seen by the soldiers on the tower. I saw a group of elite soldiers in golden armor coming on horseback, startling the garrison at Zhongqian.

Then the alarm bells rang.

When the two thousand-household officials rushed up to the tower, Bai Guangen arrived at the foot of the tower.

"My general, Bai Guang'en, is guarding thousands of households, why don't you come out and see me quickly!"

Bai Guang'en galloped forward and shouted loudly, with a majestic tone.

How could the two thousand households on the gate tower not recognize Bai Guangen? He peed down the tower and went to open the gate.

At the same time, he was still complaining: "The chief soldier's servant changed his clothes again, and the dog got in!"

Another Qianhu said: "Say less, or you will be put in the wrong shoes."

After opening the door, Bai Guangen slipped into the guardhouse with his golden-armored guards. Not long after, there was a noise in the guardhouse, which finally subsided.

When Bai Guangen came out, there were ten fewer golden-armored guards. In the guard station, the more than 2,000 soldiers did not change much, but among them, almost half of those with more than 100 household officials were killed.

For Bai Guangen, he had already made up his mind - from the moment Ying Yi fell from the sky, from the moment Ying Yi plowed a river of blood in front of him with a knife, he had accepted his fate.

Not only did he accept his fate, he was also in high spirits.

Only by following a person like this can he have a future, right?

He had no second thoughts at all, because Ying Yi had promised that as long as he took care of this matter, his son Bai Liangbi's sin of surrendering to the Tatars would be forgiven.

That being the case, what else can’t be let go?

The Tatars were powerful, but Bai Guangen knew that Ying Yi was even more powerful. Not only Ying Yi, who is like a god and demon, but also the incredibly powerful army under his command.

Bai Guangen has had countless dealings with the Tatars, and he knows how powerful the Tatars are. But he can be sure and certain that even the strongest and most elite Tatar soldiers, the so-called white-armored soldiers with white teeth, are far inferior to the troops under Ying Yi's command.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. When Bai Guangen had such thoughts, he naturally no longer had any worries.

What I'm thinking about now is how to do what Ying Yi told me well and get Ying Yi's approval.

After taking the Zhongqian post, Bai Guangen went straight to the front guard without stopping. By nightfall, the former garrison guard was already in sight.

Naturally, it was impossible for Bai Guangen to use force directly against the former garrison like Zhongzenshuo had done before. There are 20,000 soldiers and horses here. If Ma Ke is killed, they will definitely not be able to suppress them.

Maybe they break up in a cacophony, or maybe they fight back, which is not what Bai Guangen wants to see.

He had to convince Marco to pack up the former garrison guards and offer them together, that would be his credit.
