"Yuan Xin, Fangyuan, General Xu ordered us to immediately lead troops into the Xilu camp." Zhu Hengshi said to the two of them.
"Yes, Commander." Kusunoki Fangyuan agreed and went back to recruit his subordinates.
But Beibi Yuanxin asked: "Commander, how do you identify the people in the camp?"
"If the people in the camp who plan to surrender are smart enough, they should have given their people armbands to distinguish each other in advance, and they will also have people and horses everywhere to support them."
"If they have not made these preparations, then there is no need to worry about anything, just rush in!" Zhu Hengshi said.
"Yes, Commander." Beibi Yuanxin and Kusunoki Fangyuan agreed. Beibi Yuanxin also smiled and said: "This is the best. Han people are always soft-hearted. It is said that the Xilu captured this time can be saved as long as they convert to Buddhism.
Not dead. What does this mean? The previous battle was in vain? We should kill them all."
"You can figure out what His Majesty the Emperor means! Hurry up and recruit your own subordinates!" Zhu Hengshi shouted. In his heart, he actually agreed with Beibi Yuanxin's words, but it is impossible to make irresponsible remarks about your Majesty.
"Yes, Commander." Seeing that he was angry, the two of them agreed and quickly ran towards their subordinates.
Not long after, thousands of soldiers from the Baiyi Guard gathered and rushed into the camp under the leadership of Zhu Hengshi.
The Xilu, who wanted to surrender, had indeed arranged for someone to meet them. When a man wearing a turban and a beard saw Zhu Hengshi rushing in with his troops, he immediately said in Chinese: "Quick, come in and destroy those who are unwilling to surrender to the Ming Dynasty."
People! Our people all have a circle of white cloth tied on their left arms. Those who don’t have it tied are the ones who want to be eliminated!”
"Got it!" Zhu Hengshi roared and said to the people behind him in Fuso dialect: "Warriors, pay attention! Anyone with a white cloth tied on his left arm should not move, and anyone without a white cloth will be killed!" Although the Fuso warriors can write Chinese characters
, even proficient in Chinese poetry, but many people are not good at speaking Chinese, and the pronunciation of the person who just spoke was not standard, so he could only repeat it again.
"Kill!" the warriors shouted, rushed in, and immediately started killing the Xilu who were unwilling to surrender.
The commander of the Xilu who was unwilling to surrender was Hamuli, who had led his troops into battle today to kill the enemy. He fled into the camp when the entire army retreated, trying to lead the camp to hold on for a few more days. It was impossible for them to escape, but they are here
The longer you hold on, the greater the chance that the retreating soldiers will successfully retreat.
But many people were unwilling to persevere. They knew that the result of perseverance would be to be killed, and they were unwilling to die. They argued fiercely with Hamuli during the meeting.
In the end, no one was able to convince anyone, but those who wanted to surrender believed that it would be better to surrender sooner rather than later, and decided to surrender tonight. They also wanted to kill those who did not want to surrender and take their heads with them.
"The people of the East have a tradition of giving certificates of surrender to those who come to seek refuge. If we kill them, we can use their heads as certificates of surrender to make the people of the Ming Dynasty trust us." One of the people who knew something about Dongfang said.
Everyone had no objections. It was impossible for them to surrender without being discovered by Hamuli, and they would inevitably have to fight a battle. In this case, they might as well strike first and kill those who were unwilling to surrender.
But how could Hamuli not be prepared for this? They were discovered just as they were about to take action, and it immediately turned into a melee. Moreover, because Hamuli had some elite main soldiers, they had an advantage on the battlefield until the Ming army came in.
Seeing the Ming army charging in, Hamuli could only lead his soldiers to retreat. It was not that he didn't know that the Ming army might intervene, but he only had so many soldiers in his hands, and he really couldn't spare some soldiers to use against the Ming army.
The reserve team, faced with the sudden attack of the Ming army, could only retreat to a place suitable for defense.
Naturally, Zhu Hengshi would not miss the opportunity to pursue, and led his troops to pursue them. Hamuli paid a heavy price to block them outside a camp.
Zhu Hengshi immediately ordered the archers to fire arrows to suppress the wall. A group of tall and strong soldiers came to the wall with two grenades in their hands and threw the grenades upwards into the wall. Suddenly there was an explosion, and there were people.
He was screamed. Beibi Yuanxin shouted and led his troops to climb the wall of the village to fight in.
Hamuli led the soldiers to resist vigorously, but he had no choice but to have a small number of soldiers. They had been in a fight just now and were exhausted. They were quickly killed by Baiyi guards and entered the stronghold. In the stronghold, they passed by
There was a fight, and all the Xilu who were unwilling to surrender were killed except Hamuli.
"Hurry, surround him!" Beibi Yuanxin shouted. The official reward for capturing a Xilu alive is more than killing one (there is no difference between killing or capturing a soldier alive), so it is better to capture him alive if he can.
Hamuli looked at the Ming army surrounding him and understood that they were going to capture him alive. He shouted: "How can the followers of Allah surrender to the infidels!" He picked up a knife and committed suicide. Beibi Yuanxindu
There was no time to stop it.
"Damn it," Beibi Yuanxin spat: "Isn't it bad to live a few more days? I have to commit suicide!"
He chopped off his head with his own knife and said to the soldiers: "Cut his body into pieces and feed it to the dogs!"
"This general, I am the commander of the Xilu who defected to the Ming Dynasty. My name is Adeshi." Such words suddenly rang in his ears.
Kitabi Genshin hurriedly turned his head and saw a man about forty, who looked similar to the man who had just greeted them, and also had a beard, standing next to him.
"I'm not a general, I'm just a commander. I don't dare to call you a general."
"If you are looking for the person in charge, he is the commander of our Baiyi Guards. I will take you to see him." Beibi Yuanxin said.
"Thank you, Commander Tongzhi. What do you call me?" Adeshi asked respectfully.
"My name is Bei Bi Yuan Xin." Bei Bi Yuan Xin didn't say much and led him to Zhu Hengshi.
Zhu Hengshi was commanding the soldiers to explore around the Xilu camp when he saw Beibi Yuanxin coming with a man. He was introduced that this was the commander, and he immediately said: "I am Zhu Hengshi, the commander of the Baiyi Guards. I have seen him."
Adeshi commanded."
"Adeshi has met Commander Zhu." Adeshi said.
He exchanged a few words with Zhu Hengshi and then asked directly: "Commander Zhu, how do you arrange for those of us who have taken refuge in the Ming Dynasty?"
"This matter must be decided by Your Majesty or General Xu, and I have no right to comment. But don't worry, you are soldiers who took the initiative to join the Ming Dynasty, and they are definitely different from those captured on the battlefield. As long as you are willing to believe in Buddhism, Your Majesty will definitely treat you favorably.
"Zhu Hengshi said.
"We are all willing to believe in Buddhism. The Buddha appeared the night before. It can be seen that Buddha is the true God, and what Tianfang teaches is just a false god. Naturally, we must abandon the false gods and believe in the true God." Adeshi said seriously.
Zhu Hengshi patted him on the shoulder and said, "In that case, you don't have anything to worry about."
Zhu Hengshi comforted him a few more words to calm Adeshi's mood. But at this moment, he suddenly remembered something and his face changed slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a voice from beside him: "Master Commander!
