Chapter 178 (20) The flames burn the sky, the butcher's knife is imminent

A tiger Li Guo met He Tengjiao, but it was not by accident. Zuo Liangyu drove his troops across Huguang, and sincerely invited He Tengjiao to attack Nanjing together, asking for the wages owed, on the side of Qing Dynasty.He Tengjiao refused.Zuo Liangyu felt that he had lost face, so he drove his troops into the city and killed all the people.He Tengjiao handed over the official seal to his family, and killed himself with a horizontal sword. Just halfway through the slaying, Zuo Liangyu's personal soldiers rushed in and knocked him down, and captured him. Then Zuo Liangyu imprisoned He Tengjiao on the boat, and issued an announcement in the name of both parties, telling the small Nanming court to repent and rehabilitate, and pay back the salary as soon as possible, otherwise it will be really impolite.

After hearing this, Zhu Yousong, the king of blessing, said with a smile: "Everything is worse than a cup in hand, and life is always at the mercy of the moon." drink! Anyone who doesn't drink will look down on me. Zuo Liangyu was very dissatisfied with this answer, so he continued to march.At this time, He Tengjiao, taking advantage of the unpreparedness, jumped into the water and committed suicide.The four guards who were in charge of guarding him were terrified, fearing that they would be held accountable, so they all threw themselves into the water. But on the surface of the water, there were only four corpses floating out, but He Tengjiao went down the current and climbed ashore, just met a person, looked up, hey, it turned out to be his family members, holding the seal he gave in his arms.

So He Tengjiao finally had the opportunity to meet Li Zicheng's troops, and the two families became one.But Zuo Liangyu went straight to Jiujiang, looked around, hey, it seems that a battle has just been fought in this land. Didn't they find a battle? The Qing soldiers just defeated Li Zicheng here. Moving forward, he caught Cheng Jiuwan, the magistrate of Dongliu County. This Cheng Jiuwan is probably the elder brother of Cheng Jiubai who killed Li Zicheng, otherwise why would the name be so strong?But Zuo Liangyu didn't know about Li Zicheng's affairs, so he didn't pay any attention to it. He chopped Cheng Jiuwan with one knife and moved on.

Zuo Liangyu went to the old battlefield in Jiujiang, and then went to Tongling. At this time, Huang Degong came. It was Huang Degong who was brutally beaten by Gao Jie, the fanning kite, under the four towns in Jiangbei. Speaking of Huang Degong, he is a real big boss who can't read a basket of words, but his mind is still normal.After Fu Wang Zhu Yousong came to the throne, he kept issuing edicts to him, asking him to catch frogs, make aphrodisiacs, or catch young girls and send them to the palace for the blessing of King Fu.All these edicts were torn to pieces by Huang Degong, and even the little eunuch who delivered the edict was beaten to death by Huang Degong.

Every time Huang Degong fights, he will definitely get drunk, and he will never be able to be sober.His most commonly used weapon on the battlefield is an iron whip. If he doesn't use the iron whip to smash the opponent to pieces during the battle, the matter is not over.So every time after a battle, the human juice on the whip would always stick to his palm, and he had to soak it in clean water for half an hour before he could let go. Although Huang Degong is resolutely unwilling to catch frogs and make aphrodisiacs for Fu Wang Zhu Yousong, after all, Fu Wang is also the emperor, and now Zuo Liangyu dares to bring troops to ask the emperor for the wages owed. impossible.

So Huang Degong rushed to the upper reaches of Tongling first, got more than a hundred civilian boats, piled tung oil, nitrate and other inflammable dangerous goods on the boats, lit them, and went straight down the river, and saw a meandering fire dragon, heading straight for Zuo Liangyu The salary-seeking army rushed over. The drums of war are rumbling and the soldiers are in full swing.Zuo Liangyu's 800,000 migrant workers who were asking for wages were burned to the ground and screamed. Burn you to death, so that you dare to ask for wages again. At this time, the Qing soldiers had already arrived in Sizhou.

The Ming army in Sizhou burned the bridge and fled, while the Qing army repaired the bridge and approached Yangzhou. In the city of Yangzhou, there was great chaos, and the common people rumored that Xu Dingguo, who had his whole family killed by Madam Xing, had returned with the Qing soldiers this time, and said that he would kill all of Gao Jie's subordinates.So all the people in the city fled to the river, but found that the boat was empty and there was no way to escape. Shi Kefa hurriedly comforted the people, and at the same time reported to the court, asking for reinforcements. The small court in Nanjing received Shi Kefa's request for help, and his eyes turned black with anger: This old history has messed up again, hasn't it?Here, Zuo Liangyu's army is attacking Nanjing, the country is at stake, and he still talks about Yangzhou, I really don't know the seriousness.

Pass the decree and Shi Kefa, and quickly raise the soldiers of Yangzhou to help the capital. At this time, Duoduo had led his army to the north of Yangzhou City, found more than 100 boats, went to the south bank, and brought more than 200 boats, so he went straight to the city of Yangzhou. Accompanied by the letters from the Southern Ming court urging him to return to his teacher, Yangzhou Ten Days began from here. Shi Kefa was isolated on the Yangzhou City Tower. In this cruel world, he had to face it alone after all.
