After dawn, all the divisions had left Shangyang Fort. There were only more than a thousand Han officials and criminals in the fort cleaning the corpses and extinguishing the still burning flames. [] There was a choking smell with the smell of burnt corpses.
It was unbearable to stay in the fort for one more minute. If they were not detained by Guan Ning's army, how could these Han officials and criminals be willing to do such things to deal with the aftermath?
The heads of the Han people hanging on the four walls of the city have been taken down and replaced by the heads of bannermen, including men and women, old and young, lined up in a row, adding a bit of terror and weirdness to Shangyang Fort.
After returning to the system, the battle results of each division were quickly calculated. It was estimated that 1,360 Qing troops were killed, but only 180 of them were killed. According to the head count, there were about 3,000 soldiers in the fort.
People and people of all tribes were killed.
The bodies of the governor Chang Shou and a group of officials were found. After being identified by the young men of the Wu army, Chang Shou's death was confirmed. His head was cut off, embalmed with lime, and hung in the main gate of the east city. At the same time,
His official uniform was also hung on a bamboo pole at the top of the city above his head.
About 700 Eight Banners women were driven to the open space in the west of the city in the early morning and were killed. The massacre was carried out by the Fifth Regiment of the Guards Division, Regiment Qianhu Grifsky, and Deputy Qianhu, former Qing Army and Han Army Flag Firearms
The body of Sun Keqiang, the battalion co-leader, was buried on the spot, and a team of cavalry drove their horses to trample the burial ground firmly.
Yesterday's massacre and looting of the city, it can be said that Shangyang Fort was completely looted, so after the divisions left the city, they began to collect the spoils of war. Military officer Guo Fei and his more than 400 officials were waiting early in the morning.
Outside the city, after each division was dispatched, they started counting the books separately.
However, it was not only Guan Ning's army who participated in the massacre and looting of the city, but also more than 3,000 young Wu soldiers and more than a thousand Han criminals in the fort. When blood and revenge blinded people's eyes, these young Wu soldiers who came with hatred
The criminals who took advantage of the situation not only had their hands stained with blood, but also had bulging pockets. Their faces could not conceal their excitement. They gathered together and recounted their glorious "accomplishments" yesterday. Speaking of happiness,
Everywhere, spittle shot out of his mouth like a fountain.
Since they had not yet received the order to reorganize, the more than 4,000 Wu army youths and criminals were all driven out of the city by Guan Ning's army and gathered together to wait for Zhao Qiang's order. There were also more than 1,000 Han officials and civilians who had committed crimes and were sent to other places with them.
Their family members were also driven out of the city. Among them, there were many criminal officials and readers who were sent to other places due to "word prison", so Zhao Qiang was ready to start recruiting them after completing the work.
Chen Menglei was the first reader Zhao Qiang thought of recruiting under his command, because he was a great scholar. Although he was now a prisoner assigned outside the customs, he still had a certain influence in reading the hearts of the Han people inside the customs. Of course, this influence will not die away.
Gu Yanwu, but to set him as a model, he is undoubtedly attractive to the Han people in Guan Nei. Even if it cannot attract the Han people in Guan Nei to actively surrender, it can still slightly weaken their hostility and rejection of Guan Ning's army.
Although he is not very fond of Confucianism, in this era, respecting Confucius and valuing Confucianism is the only way to win people's hearts, so Zhao Qiang has to do some superficial work. When the day can really decide the national policy, he can put some inappropriate
Before that, he could only treat the castrated Confucianism that he disdained as an image project.
After Pan Changqing, Wu Da and others met Zhao Qiang in Alchuka, they learned that Zhao Qiang was the commander-in-chief of Guan Ning Army. However, for some reason, Pan Changqing seemed to be somewhat hostile to Zhao Qiang, or to be precise, he was dissatisfied with the theory.
Unexplained dissatisfaction and suspicion. Under his influence, Wu Da and others were not particularly affectionate towards Zhao Qiang, even though Zhao Qiang told them that their fourth brother Wu Si was already rushing over and was a member of Guan Ningjun’s teaching brigade.
Wan Hu, he and he are good brothers who lived and died together to build this business. But these seemed not to affect Wu Da and the others. Zhao Qiang didn't know what Pan Changqing said to the Wu brothers to make them refuse even his life-saving favor.
Unappreciative, cold words, no intention of meeting again after a long separation and fighting side by side.
Zhao Qiang had the intention to win over Pan Changqing and Wu Da and let them work for him. He tried to test the words, but Pan Changqing politely refused, showing that he was unwilling to obey Zhao Qiang's order. Seeing this, Zhao Qiang did not force it, but he was decisive.
He rejected Pan Changqing's request that he and the Wu brothers gather together the young Wu army in Alchuka, the old Wu army troops near Shangyang Fort, Ninggu Pagoda, and the Yunnan people to build an anti-Qing army.
How can I let an old guy like you pick the ripe fruit easily?
Pan Changqing's request made Zhao Qiang lose all his previous good impressions of him. The older he got, the more he felt that he had something up his sleeve. The tens of thousands of former Wu Army troops and Yunnan people outside the Pass are the largest source of troops that determine whether Guan Ning's army can gain a foothold outside the Pass. How?
Let others go!
Zhao Qiang is not greedy for power, but he cannot artificially disperse his limited troops. Regardless of what Pan Changqing is thinking in his heart, considering the overall situation outside the customs, he cannot let them act independently.
After saying a few nonchalant words and a few cold and polite words, Zhao Qiang sent Pan Changqing and his companions off to rest, and then ordered Deqiu to take care of them and not allow them to have contact with anyone, not even the old Wu Jun troops of Guan Ning Army.
Regardless of Wu Jun who has not yet joined Guan Ning's army, in short, they cannot be allowed to have contact with anyone, and they are imprisoned in disguise. Even if Wu Si comes, he is not allowed to meet Pan Changqing and the others.
The work of handing over the spoils of the three major regiments of the Cavalry, Guards and Guards went smoothly. The veterans all knew how to do it. Under the supervision of the veterans, the recruits did not dare to hide it secretly and handed over all the things honestly.
, and then wait for the officers to distribute them according to their merits. The flag soldiers of the newly-established Manchuria Regiment are also very obedient. The officers of Qianhu Burcha and Ertu of the Regiment are very cooperative with the sergeant's clearance work. See
Any soldiers who have hidden secrets will be pulled out without a word and given a whip. During yesterday's massacre, the Manchurian regiment was a vanguard, killing compatriots without mercy at all. Perhaps these flag soldiers and flag soldiers
The officials knew that they could no longer turn back. If they wanted to save their lives, they could only follow Guan Ningjun into the dark.
Two large carts were filled with the looted loot, including gold and silver jewelry. It was initially estimated to be worth about 50,000 taels of silver. There were countless other weapons, armor, grain, oil, salt, cloth, medicinal materials and other supplies. There were already several large shops in the fort.
, and there were many merchants. Except for those who were burned in the fire, all of them were cleared out. The food alone could support the army for a month.
As of noon, the collection of loot within Guan Ning's army was over, and the remaining distribution and replenishment were the sergeant's business. The cavalry division was the first to finish clearing out the loot. As soon as it was over, it received Zhao Qiang's military order to surround the army.
The young men of Wu army and the guilty people gathered in Dongcheng.
Please support by collecting and red tickets. I'm really sorry for always asking for collection, but collecting is really important.
