Chapter 3 The Death of Lu Xiangsheng

But some people are still reasonable people. They can see who is really fighting against the construction of slaves. Some gentry can't bear it and raise some food to send to Lu Xiangsheng. At least they did not let the soldiers and horses led by Lu Xiangsheng completely cut off the grain and collapsed because of food.

Under such circumstances, Lu Xiangsheng, wearing filial clothes and with thousands of Tianxiong soldiers under his command, chased him all the way from the capital to the giant deer area. At this time, tens of thousands of Guanning troops also arrived in the area of Jize, and the two armies were only 50 miles apart.

Lu Xiangsheng ushered in the last battle of his life here.

The timid battle of the Ming army was seen by the Jiannu soldiers soon after the Jiannu army entered the customs. In fact, in the first period, they were still very worried about forcing the Ming army to jump over the wall with them and fight a decisive battle with them, but they went all the way south and attacked the city and land. Obviously, they had clearly found that the Ming army was not far from them. However, many Daming troops watched them plunder from afar, but did not rely on them to trouble them at all.

At first, Dorcon was very confused, but soon he saw the reason. These Ming army did not intend to fight with them to build slaves at all. On them, they must be thinking about other things now. Most of the Ming army, to put it bluntly, was ordered to carry out an armed parade and built slaves with them at all. The courage of the army to fight to the death was as fear the enemy from top to bottom. This time, the slave soldiers would become more unscrupulous, so they dared to go south and attack the territory of Guangping Mansion, but they did not encounter a single war.

Only Lu Xiangsheng's officers and soldiers are obviously different from other Ming's officers and soldiers. Only Lu Xiangsheng, who left Beijing and went south, always hung behind the Jiannu army and gave Jiannu a cold son to hate him.

So Jiannu realized the difference between Lu Xiangsheng and other Ming officers, soldiers and officials. Only Lu Xiangsheng, a passer-by, wanted to really fight against their army of slaves.

Being so thought about by Lu Xiangsheng, Jiannu also felt uncomfortable. With Lu Dadao behind him, he always wanted to jump up and bite them. On the way back, if he was blocked by Lu Dadao, wouldn't it be a big trouble?

So Jiannu decided to completely solve Lu Xiangsheng, and the location was in the Giant Deer area.

Everyone was very clear about the following things. Jiannu mobilized more than 30,000 soldiers and horses and surrounded Lu Xiangsheng's troops. Lu Xiangsheng sent people to seek help. Gao Qiqian refused to send troops to rescue Lu Xiangsheng. Finally, he watched Lu Xiangsheng die in the battle and died heroically.

At this time, the soldier's heart will be completely dispersed. If an official treats a patriotic loyal minister like this, can a soldier still fight to the death?

So after Jiannu destroyed Lu Xiangsheng's troops, he immediately launched a fierce attack on the tens of thousands of Guanning army and other officers and soldiers led by Gao Qiqian.

Gao Qi was afraid of Jiannu like a tiger and wolf, and his soldiers were even more unbearable. They collapsed before the war. Under the pursuit of Jiannu's army, Gao Qiqian only led a small number of officers and soldiers to guard him and escaped from the battlefield, but tens of thousands of elites in the north of the Ming Dynasty were also completely buried by Gao Qiqian in this battle.

Chongzhen did not know what happened to Lu Xiangsheng. Lu Xiangsheng and his good friend Yang Tinglin repeatedly impeach Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian, but they were all intercepted by Yang Sichang and others.

After hearing the news of Lu Xiangsheng's death, Yang Sichang did not even dare to believe it and sent someone to check the battlefield. As a result, the people sent found Lu Xiangsheng, who was dressed in ma yi and killed by several arrows and several arrows on the battlefield. After replying to Yang Sichang, Yang Sichang still suppressed the news and did not tell Chongzhen.

Because Yang Sichang wanted the most news was not that Lu Xiangsheng died fighting with the Jiannu army on the battlefield, but that he hoped to hear that Lu Xiangsheng was defeated and escaped. In this way, he could blame Lu Xiangsheng for the defeat of the hidden soldiers. In addition, it also covered up the performance of their group of fear of war.

So that after Lu Xiangsheng died for dozens of days, the court did not send anyone to collect his body, but the local people heard the news and rushed to the battlefield to find Lu Xiangsheng's body. Someone donated a good coffin and temporarily collected Lu Xiangsheng's body.

These news were hidden by Yang Sichang and others. Chongzhen did not know where Lu Xiangsheng was for dozens of days. It was not until later that it could not be covered up that Yang Sichang had to tell Chongzhen the news of Lu Xiangsheng's defeat and death. Chongzhen sent someone to collect Lu Xiangsheng's body, but Because of Yang Sichang and others' obstruction and tumbled, Lu Xiangsheng did not receive any encouragement from Chongzhen or give any pension to his family after his death.

In fact, the construction slave army has never thought about entering the world through this entry. Their purpose is still very simple. It is still to enter the customs and plunder people out of the customs, and fundamentally continue to weaken the Ming's ability to rule in the north. One day, when the time is ripe, they will wave The teacher entered the customs again and captured the big tomorrow.

Therefore, after Lu Xiangsheng died in battle and defeated the Ming army led by Gao Qiqian, they immediately continued to plunder in the north. Yang Sichang miscalculated the route of the Jiannu army going south, believing that if Jiannu went south into Shandong, he would definitely go south to Dezhou. He believed that Dezhou was the key to defending Shandong, and ordered Yan, the then governor of Shandong. Jizu, Shandong soldiers and horses gathered around Dezhou to prevent the Qing army from going south.

However, Yue Tuo, the slave chief, saw through the layout of the Ming army and did not rush straight to Dezhou at all. Instead, he first entered the north Zhili and went straight west into Shanxi. After the attack, he turned east again, bypassed Dezhou, entered Shandong from Linqing, crossed the Huitong River, and then went straight into Jinan City.

At this time, Jinan only had hundreds of townships and a small number of Laizhou reinforcements, which could not defend Dezhou at all. In addition, the Ming soldiers would have no fighting spirit. In the first month, when the people enjoyed the rare peaceful atmosphere of the New Year, Jinan City announced that it would be conquered by the construction slaves.

Zhu Youshu, the German king who was arranged to the An family in Jinan, and Zhu En, the general of Feng, were all abdicated by the slave army. When the city was broken, the slave army slaughtered in Jinan City. The people in the city were killed and tens of thousands of people were killed. In addition, the whole city of Jinan was looted by the army of construction slaves. Within dozens of miles inside and outside the city, a large number of people were built. The slave took it away.

But the slave chief Yue Tuo also died of illness in Jinan City after breaking through Jinan City, which is also a kind of retribution!

So far, Jiannu's journey has been full of pots. In addition, Yue Tuo died of illness, and the army lost its commander all the way. In addition, Jiannu was also afraid that it would go too deep into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty. Once Daming reacted, he summoned all the world's soldiers and horses to defend the capital, resulting in cutting off their retreat. Things are in big trouble.

So after Jiannu broke through Jinan in the first month, the slave army finally stopped going south, began to clean up the guys, drove away a large number of plundered people, and embarked on the road back outside the customs.

This months of southward plunder made Jiannu fish full of pots, many soldiers of the Eight Banners, and their bodies were full of valuable things, and they robbed a large number of livestock, mules, horses, cattle, pigs and sheep, and plundered a large number of carts, full of various materials they captured.

Several slave soldiers captured a total of 5 to 600,000. They drove these captured lives, and also carried all kinds of captured goods for them, and began to set out to return to the customs.

It is impossible to say that Jiannu is not nervous at all. Now that they have captured too many people, and these captured people are many times more than their troops. Once they encounter a strong attack by the Ming army, once these captured lives are not easy to suppress, I'm afraid that at that time They can't even block it.

However, human nature is undoubtedly sad. These captive Ming people, who were as docile as sheep, were driven to their unknown future by Jiannu. Although they were reluctant and reluctant to give up their homeland, they were afraid of the knives and guns in the hands of Jiannu, and few people thought about it. To resist.

And there are many Jiannu cavalry. They know very well that even if they escape, they will soon be caught up and killed by Jiannu's cavalry, so they are driven out of the gate by Jiannu, like a flock of sheep.

Jiannu will not give them anything good along the way. Every two days, they will be given some nests that can't be seen like alms, even if they are given rations.

Only these nests have become what these captive slaves compete for. At this time, the despicableness of human nature was completely stimulated.

Some of the slaves were strong, bold and black-handed. Although they dared not fight against Jiannu, they began to show their strength among the slaves.

With their ability to fight, they quickly gathered some henchmen among the slaves and became an accomplice of the slaves to control these slaves. Whenever the slaves gave them something to eat, they would control most of the food into their own hands by force, and then distributed them to some like alms. Obedience to their slaves.

And the old and weak in the crowd certainly can't grab food by force, so some of the captured people along the way were soon starved to death, and even their bodies became the target of robbery. Some people privately cut the meat of these corpses, secretly ate them, and even took them away. Make a transaction.

Jiannu has captive a large number of women. These women must not be able to compete for food with their physical strength, so these women have to sell their bodies in order to survive in one bite.

After grabbing the food, some bastards among the slaves were taken by them to buy women. During the camp, they could even live in a temporary shack, and they didn't know what it was. In the nest, they can get a yellow girl to sleep with them.

The despicableness of human nature was completely demonstrated at this time. Many people's human nature has been completely destroyed at this time. Although it is sad, this is the law of survival. The survival of the fittest and the survival of the strong are vividly reflected at this time.
