Daming: Stealing Chen Yuanyuan at the beginning

Chapter 321 It's all left over from my play, God can't help you

In the early morning of February [-], when Duoduo took his last breath, Li Cunming led the troops to capture Luokou.

Luokou is a transfer station between Qihe County and Jinan City. Taking this place completely cut off the connection between Qihe and Jinan, and also completely wiped out the Qing army strongholds outside Jinan City.

Li Cunming ordered Weng Zhiqi and Zhu Yujian to garrison Luokou and Yantou towns respectively, and said: "If Shang Kexi leads the troops to attack, you must not go out to fight, just stick to it. As long as you persist for five days, when I completely wipe out the ambushes in Jinan City, There will be no worries!"

Then he took [-] soldiers and horses, and rushed to Jinan City with lightning speed.On the afternoon of February [-], the Ming army approached the city of Jinan.

The gates of the four cities in Jinan were wide open, and the common people came in and out, and there was not a single Qing soldier on the walls.Li Cunming ordered 3 soldiers to quickly occupy the city gate, and another [-] troops were stationed outside the city to surround the city.

Ren Qi was puzzled and said: "Your Majesty, the Qing soldiers have withdrawn from Jinan City, why don't you enter the city?"

Li Cunming said: "I got the news that Shang Zhixin led [-] Heavenly Aid soldiers disguised as ordinary people, lurking in the city, and wanted to catch a turtle in an urn."

"Is there such a thing?" Ren Qi asked in surprise.

Li Cunming said: "Shang Kexi has calculated thousands of times, but he didn't realize that I had arranged spies in Jinan City, and the spies were lurking beside Zhang Ruxiu. It can be said that Shang Kexi's every move can't escape my eyes."

The spies Li Cunming mentioned were the disciples of the Holy Fire Sect.

"So that's it!" Ren Qi suddenly realized and cursed, "Shang Kexi is so cunning. If His Majesty hadn't made arrangements in advance, I'm afraid we would have been fooled and become the turtles in the urn."

"Who is the turtle, you will know after a while, I want Shang Kexi to shoot himself in the foot!" Li Cunming laughed.

Ren Qi frowned and said, "Things are a bit difficult. There are tens of thousands of Qing soldiers hiding in the city disguised as ordinary people. How can we find them out? Check it out slowly, time waits for no one; if you are in a hurry, you will be afraid." They jumped over the wall and bit people in a hurry, accidentally hurting the people. Difficult, really difficult!"

"You have so many crazy ideas, you really can't think of a way?" Li Cunming smiled and looked at Ren Qi.

"In front of His Majesty, I'm just a stupid bastard." Ren Qi laughed.

Li Cunming looked at the sky, and said: "When I captured Li Dingguo in Chengjiang County, I used this same move. I never thought that Shang Zhixin would dare to use an axe in front of me. It's all leftovers from me. Would I be afraid of him? Running around, I'm tired, eat first, and then sleep until dawn. Ren Qi, you don't need to do anything else, just beware of the Qing soldiers' sneak attack in the middle of the night."

Silly Dazhu watched the emperor leisurely walk into the tent of the Chinese army, and said, "I said Seventh brother, is our emperor really not in a hurry at all?"

"Your Majesty is a god, what's there to worry about? I think you are the emperor, don't worry about eunuchs, go and accompany me on patrol!" Ren Qi said.

"You are the eunuch!" Silly Dazhu scolded.

Nothing happened all night. In the early morning of the second day, Li Cunming got up full of energy and walked around the barracks with his hands behind his back.

Ren Qi came, scratching his scalp and laughing: "Your Majesty, have you figured out a way? Don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't believe in Your Majesty, it's that Shun Hou is in a hurry and keeps making noises in my ears."

Silly Dazhu became anxious: "Ren Qi, stop talking nonsense, why am I in a hurry? No, I am in a hurry, but I also believe that His Majesty can figure out a way."

Li Cunming laughed loudly: "You two don't sing oboe in front of me, don't you just want to know what I can do? Well, the solution is in the pot."

Ren Qi and Silly Dazhu looked over and saw the soldiers in the firehouse walking out of the barracks with large iron pots on their backs.Before he had time to ask, he heard the emperor say: "Don't be in a daze, send someone to the city to post a notice."

When the sun rose, many people gathered at the gates of the four cities, and they were reading the notices posted by the Ming army.

The notice said that the emperor loved the people like his own son, and when he came to Jinan City for the first time, he wanted to invite the people to dinner.All the people in the city had to line up at the four city gates, waiting for the soldiers to give out porridge, and those who dared to hide at home would be killed without mercy.

The people discussed it, and someone said: "It's really a rare thing, the emperor invites you to dinner so overbearing!"

Someone said: "My family is almost out of steam, as long as there is something to eat. I like such a domineering emperor!"

"Do you smell the fragrance?" Someone twirled his nose and pointed out of the city and shouted, "Look, there are indeed soldiers who have started to bury pots and cook rice. Oh, there is also the smell of meat, can't it be boiled meat porridge?" ?”

Someone ran away, shouting as he ran, "Mom, you go to line up, I'll go home and call the kids."

The woman shouted: "Father, remember to take more bowls, the biggest one!"

Not long after, the city was full of running people, scrambling to line up at the gate of the city.The soldiers guarding the city strictly searched, and only those who did not have weapons could leave the city to eat porridge.

After years of wars and famines, and last year's plague, the population of Jinan City dropped sharply, and six out of ten households died.Even so, the whole city was full of people when they ran out.

……

An hour later, in the east of the city, in a remote courtyard near the school grounds.

Zhang Ruxiu said angrily, "Young General, the people in the city lined up at the gate of the city, and the Ming army began to search the city."

"Damn it, Chongzhen's move is really hateful!" Shang Zhixin stomped his feet and scolded.

"Yes, if we continue to hide, we will definitely be searched by the Ming army; but if we pretend to be ordinary people and queue up, we will definitely not be able to carry weapons if we go out of the city and we will be searched. If there is a change, there is no way to fight back." Zhang Ruxiu sighed.

Shang Zhidao: "Strange, how did Chongzhen know that we were lurking in the city? Could it be that there are internal thieves around us?"

Zhang Ruxiu said: "Major General, it is useless to thoroughly investigate the internal thieves at this time, we should find ways to deal with the situation, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"

Shang Zhixin paced around, and finally gritted his teeth: "Rather than sit and wait for death, it is better to give it a go! Chongzhen is not in the city, we have nothing to do with him, let's change the plan for now, ignore Chongzhen, let's go out of the city, maybe we can escape."

"It seems that this is the only way!" Zhang Ruxiu nodded and said, "I will inform the soldiers to assemble right now and rush to the east city gate in a quarter of an hour."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a lot of shouting: "There are people hiding in this room, there are people here, and they have weapons..."

"General Ren, we found the lurking Qing soldiers!"

"All the soldiers listened to the order, surrounded Dongcheng District, and bombarded me!"

In an instant, only the sound of soldiers and horses was heard, and the sound of killing was everywhere.Then, the sound of cannons and the beeping and beeping of the fire were heard again.

The Qing soldiers hiding in various houses in the east of the city were forced to take out their weapons and rushed to the school grounds.The school grounds were surrounded by the Ming army, and the two sides fought fiercely.

Ren Qi rode a horse to the vicinity of the school grounds, and ordered: "Hit me hard, kill all these bastards!"

He smiled contemptuously and shouted: "Shang Zhixin, I heard that the army you lead is called the Heavenly Help Army, isn't it? Hmph, in my opinion, God can't help you this time either!"
