Lin Fu ordered all the rebel military attachés to be dragged out and tortured.
"Ah!" Zhang Jinxian, the magistrate of Yangxin County, was startled when he saw it, and hurriedly tried to dissuade him, "Killing a surrendered general before he is sentenced will be detrimental to your honor! Leave it to the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to send personnel to deal with it, and their lives will be ruined.
If you can't keep them, why rush for a while?" He was not interceding for these rebellious military attachés, but Lin Fu was good at killing surrendered prisoners. If the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate knew about it, they would be impeached and prosecuted, which would have a great impact on Lin Fu's future.
Unfavorable. Zhang Jinxian persuaded Lin Fu to withdraw his orders and escort more than 40 surrendered generals back to the generals, leaving them to the imperial court for disposal.
Lin Fu narrowed his eyes, sighed softly, and said: "Captain Lu is still in the coffin city. I can't let him die with his eyes open. The bones of Shao Wu generals and thousands of dead souls in Jinan, Linqing and other places have not yet been buried."
It's cold!" Lin Fu dismissed Zhang Jinxian's idea to dissuade him, "The day I carried the coffin into the city, I swore that I would never be in conflict with the traitorous generals as long as I lived. If I don't do anything today, I might give them magical powers.
Escaped with life..."
Geng Quanshan, Chen Dingbang and other Shaowu generals knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Fu, saying: "Thank you, Lord, for your success. The captain and the thousands of Shaowu souls who died will have no regrets! Zhao Jinlong and Zhou Zhizhong escaped with their lives today, and they will also die in the future."
Retribution for evil!"
"You all get up. This is what I should do. You recruit fifty executioners from Shao Wu's army for me to carry out the execution." General Lin Fu helped Geng Quanshan and Chen Dingbang up from the ground.
He also explained to Zhang Jinxian, "As for the Ministry of War, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will investigate the matter in the future, so I will take the responsibility for it. Yang Xing has just relieved the siege, and the war is still going on. After our army rests, we will go out to pursue the captured soldiers. Surrender."
The soldiers are arrogant and restless, and their mentality is unstable in the city prison. They want to cause chaos, but in order to protect Yang Yang's faith, I will act according to my authority and execute the first offender to calm the people. There is nothing inappropriate. "
At this time, Lin Fu asked Yuan Jianhai again, "General Zhenguo, do you think it is better to put them back in prison or kill them cleanly?"
"Kill them!" Yuan Jianhai's hatred for the Zhejiang soldiers who escaped before the battle was no greater than those of Geng Quanshan, Chen Dingbang and others.
When Jinan fell, hundreds of people in the Lu palace did not escape, including Yuan Jianhai's wives and concubines. Although he had little affection for his wives and concubines, Yuan Jianhai naturally did not want to make himself so miserable and miserable because of the Zhejiang soldiers.
To let them live, he wanted to pull out all the rebels and captured civilians and behead them, so as to punish future generations for not daring to rebel again.
Besides, the war was not over yet. Lin Fu led his troops to leave, and Yuan Jianhai would stay in Yangxin for a while. He was really afraid that these surrendered troops would cause chaos. Yangxin's troops would be difficult to suppress, and there would be hidden dangers at this time.
It would be best to remove it.
"In this case, the threat of the captive soldiers has not been eliminated, and for fear that the surrendered troops will cause chaos in the city, Yangxin County asked Mr. Lin to kill the surrendered generals to serve as a warning to the superiors and to calm the people!" Zhang Jinxian resolutely said with his hands, and he wanted to kill the good generals.
The responsibilities of the surrendered generals will be shouldered together.
"Take it to Beicheng and invite the people in the city to watch the execution! Those who eat the food of the people, wear the clothes of the people, abandon the soil and rebel, this will be the fate!" Lin Fu waved his hand, and decided to scare Sheng Tianxi.
The fate of the general who was pissed off and cried to heaven and earth.
The soldiers did not care about the stench, and marched the rebel military attachés to Beicheng like wolves and captives. The mud there was already soaked with blood, and they did not care about the blood of more than forty people being sprayed.
For the convenience of the war, in order to collect the bricks, stones and beams used to defend the city, almost all the houses behind the Yangxin County government office were demolished, forming a large open space. However, from the perspective of later generations, Lin Fu saw that the open space was smaller than that of later generations.
The standard playground is slightly larger, but Yangxin City is still too small after all.
During the war, Yangxin took in a total of nearly 30,000 refugees from various places who were fleeing the war. During the war, they were so hungry that stars appeared in their eyes. They had two extra meals in a row, including meat, and regained some strength. The key was to rescue the soldiers and leave, and there was no more city.
After breaking the fear of being slaughtered, the people in the city were in high spirits and filled with joy and crowded to the north city to watch the execution.
Lin Fu and others had a simple meal at the county government office and rushed to Beicheng at noon to supervise the execution.
Going up to the North Tower, Lin Fu asked Yuan Jianhai and the young princess Yuan Yan to go first. After all, Yuan Jianhai and Yuan Yan represented the clan and the Lu Palace. He, Zhang Jinxian, the magistrate of Yangxin County, and Cheng Weiyuan, the county lieutenant, followed Yuan Jianhai.
When they reached the top of the city, the people all over the city let out deafening cheers, and some even shouted "A Thousand Years Old King Lu". Under the sunshine of early spring, Yuan Yan looked young and beautiful, standing on the north city tower like an immortal.
, the people all over the city stretched out their necks and cheered. Of course, there were also cheers dedicated to "Lin Dulin" and "Zhang Zhixian".
Yuan Jianhai felt naturally good, as if he was guarding the city. Standing on the city tower, he looked down at the people in the city and all the people under his Yuan clan's rule.
Lin Fu followed Yuan Jianhai calmly. Yangxin City was finally defended. It was impossible for the Donglu to bravely march eastward. Yuan Jianhai was the only male member of the male clan in the Lu Palace who survived.
Especially if Yuan Jianhai's resistance was meritorious, whether the court would reward him or give him condolences, he would not deprive him of the title of Prince Lu or demote him. Yuan Jianhai was probably 80% sure of inheriting the title of Prince Lu.
Yuan Jianhai and Zhang Jinxian represented the clan respectively. The local government said some words of comfort to the people and some relief measures. Naturally, the Jiangdong Left Army's behavior of handing over all the seized materials to the local relief people was praised. Lin Fu praised it.
Mentioning the reward for civilian bravery and military merit briefly meant that the military declared the traitorous military attaché to be dead, and asked the little princess Yuan Yan to take shelter in the city tower temporarily to avoid seeing the bloody scene of the execution.
**********
Yangxin organized more than 2,000 defenders before the war. Although more than half of them suffered casualties, more than 1,000 people still maintained a certain fighting strength. After this battle, they also had a high level of improvement. They were able to defend the city, maintain public order in the city, and watch over surrendered troops.
There was no problem. In the afternoon, Lin Fu saw that order in the city was almost restored, so he withdrew his command tent from the north city tower, officially announcing the end of Yangxin's city defense battle. Lin Fu himself also moved to Zhulongpo's garrison for a temporary stay.
, no longer interfere in the local affairs of Yangxin. After all, the local system of Yangxin is still complete. The county magistrate Zhang Jinxian and the county captain Cheng Weiyuan also showed outstanding talents compared with their colleagues.
Jiangdong Zuojun, Jinzhong Army, and Shaowu Army also all moved to Zhulongpo. Excluding injuries and illnesses, there were nearly 2,000 Jiangdong Zuojun, 200 Jinzhong Army, and more than 400 Shaowu Army gathered in the Zhulongpo camp.
In the afternoon, the armies continued to rest and regroup. General Lin Fu summoned almost two hundred military attachés including the outposts, captains, and flag chiefs of Jiangdong Left Army for a summary meeting. Regardless of good or bad experience, all must be summed up in a timely manner after the war.
, and also invited Zhou Tong, Geng Quanshan, Chen Dingbang and other generals to come and observe.
The retreat of the Japanese soldiers has been settled. In addition to following and harassing the Japanese soldiers, there will be no big battle to fight. The Jiangdong Left Army is still a very young army, and Lin Fu has many things to consider. In addition to chasing the Japanese soldiers,
In addition, we must also think about how to prevent the various problems that the Jiangdong Zuo Army will face in the future. Compared with fighting on the battlefield, the cold arrows and hidden guns inside and outside the court will be more dangerous, but no matter how fierce the storm inside and outside the court is, the Jiangdong Zuo Army will
Forged into an elite and strong soldier and held in hand, it is like having a firm rock to rely on in the rough waves.
By dusk, the battlefield cleanup was basically completed. A total of 977 heads of captured soldiers were obtained in the Yangxin defense battle. The rebels only cut off the heads of military attachés, and a total of 86 heads were obtained. It was clear that the rebels were killed.
More than 3,000 people were counted, more than 1,300 were captured and surrendered, and more than 6,700 civilians were captured and aided. A steady stream of civilians returned and surrendered. More than 20,000 shi of millet, cereals and other grains were seized.
There were 90,000 forage, timber, and several carts. Nearly half of the grain and grass were burned, otherwise the capture would be much richer. The horses captured were far less than those in the Jinhai Victory, only more than 500, and the capture of soldiers and armor was far better than that in the Jinhai Victory.
Mo Jiben and Zhao Jinlong's troops were reorganized and surrendered. The Donglu were too embarrassed to take off their excellent armor from the two generals and then drove them to Yangxin to attack the city and die. In this battle, the defenders killed and captured prisoners.
There were almost 5,000 rebels, especially the corpses of the rebels who were abandoned around Yangxin City and no one paid attention to them. Their armor and even clothes became captured trophies. During the defeat, the rebels in order to escape for their lives even more
Just throw away the armor that is getting in the way.
There are more than 6,000 pieces of spears, swords, shields, more than 3,000 pieces of leather armor, combined armor, and combined armor, and more than 1,000 pieces of bows and crossbows.
In addition to these, gold and silver goods were also collected and converted into more than 90,000 taels of silver.
**********
At nightfall, Zhang Jinxian, the magistrate of Yangxin County, and Cheng Weiyuan, the county lieutenant, came to Zhulongfu garrison to see Lin Fu with a list of seizures.
Lin Fu looked at the list of seizures under the oil lamp, took a pen and crossed out the capture of civilians from his military exploits, and said to Zhang Jinxian and Cheng Weiyuan: "The weather is about to get warmer, and the captive soldiers are about to retreat, but that doesn't mean the captives are about to retreat."
The soldiers will not come again next time. The defense line in the north of Yanshan is really worrisome. The local area must prepare force. Of course, this is also a local matter, so I can't interfere. I will leave the spears, swords, shields and armor to Yang Xin.
One thousand pieces, the local area is in urgent need of mules and horses for post-war reconstruction, and these 500 horses were also left to Yangxin."
"On behalf of the people of Yangxin, I would like to thank Master Lin for his kindness and righteousness..." Zhang Jinxian said, "Master Lin is always thinking about the local area, which makes me admire him deeply."
"No more polite words," Lin Fu said, "There are now more than 30,000 people gathering in Yangxin to catch civilians and refugees seeking refuge, nearly half of whom are young and strong. The war has not completely ended, and these people are still alive for a while.
They cannot be demobilized. They cannot be allowed to starve to death, and there is no need to feed them in vain. They can work for relief, and they can use people to repair the city and repair the roads. This time, more than 90,000 taels of gold and silver and a certain amount of grain and grass were seized. In addition to relief, rewards will be given
In addition to what is needed, Yangxin's city walls should be covered with bricks and stones, added one foot higher, and four urns built outside the four gates... If the captives invade again in the coming year, Yangxin's defense will be easier.
As long as the army and the people are united, the Eastern invaders will not easily attack a fortified city for the purpose of plunder."
Without these goods and materials, it would be impossible for them to strengthen the city wall, build the urn city, and organize the army. Yangxin's annual land tax was less than ten thousand taels of silver. Zhang Jinxian and Cheng Weiyuan didn't know how to express their gratitude.
If so, just listen and nod.
At this time, Wu Qi, the chief sentry officer, pushed the door in and saw Lin Fu in the house with Zhang Jinxian and Cheng Weiyuan. He hurriedly said: "The Yellow River has burst its embankment. When the outpost entered the southwest corner of Jihe County, it found that the flood of the embankment was overflowing.
After the soldiers retreated to Jihe, they did not stay. Instead, they joined forces with the soldiers stationed at Jihe and retreated toward Dezhou. Although there is no further information, it can be initially judged that the main force of the soldiers on the southern front has withdrawn from Jinan and is blocking the Yellow River to block the south.
Pursuing troops. It is still unclear where the breach of the embankment is, so I sent scouts to go around to the south bank to conduct reconnaissance..."
"These beasts!"
Although Lin Fu had long expected that the soldiers would attack the Yellow River, when it actually happened, he was still trembling with anger and wanted to break the pen in his hand.
