Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    With the cooperation of his uncle, Hong Yigong began to spread rumors: In order to defend the city, the tartars were afraid of the Han people's internal response, and wanted to kill all the Han people in the city!

    In just two or three days, it spread throughout the streets and alleys.

    The rumor spread so quickly, thanks to Han Yun's behavior of confiscating the iron.  It is clear that they do not trust the Han people, and they clearly want to suppress the Han people to death. After many Han people are blackmailed, they don't even have enough money to buy food for the next month.

    Kong Wenzhang, the biggest wine merchant in the city, is also a traitor.  Most of the sorghum harvested by surrounding villages is sold to him to make wine, except for grain and retained use.

    In the cold and food-deficient Northeast, liquor is in short supply!

    Kong Wenzhang came to Hong Chuxiu quietly, chatted nonsense, and said with emotion: "This business can't be done. The imperial court sends more money every year, and the sorghum is used to pay for grain. How can there be much wine left? Brother Hong is better,  If he is allowed to suffer from natural disasters and man-made disasters, ginseng will definitely not worry about selling."

    "Hi," Hong Chuxiu shook his head again and again, "The mountains to the south are occupied by Emperor Zhao's soldiers. Where can I collect the ginseng?"

    After rambling on and on for a long time, Kong Wenzhang asked in a low voice: "Brother Hong, have you heard that the Eight Banners soldiers want to kill all the Han people in the city?"

    Hong Chuxiu said: "The soldiers of the Eight Banners can really do it."

    "What do you think?" Kong Wenzhang asked.

    "What else can we think? Tartars raise their knives, let's stretch our necks." Hong Chuxiu said with a strange air.

    "Tart Tartar?" Kong Wenzhang was startled, "Brother Hong called Master Baqi like that, but he has already found a way out?"

    Hong Chuxiu turned his head and said, "Come out."

    Hong Yigong walked slowly into the hall, smiled and cupped his hands at Kong Wenzhang.

    Hong Chuxiu introduced: "This is my little nephew, who voted for Emperor Zhao a few years ago. Emperor Zhu has Jinyi guards, and Emperor Zhao has black clothes guards. My little nephew is an errand for the black clothes guards."

    Kong Wenzhang was so surprised and delighted that he knelt down on the spot: "Kong Wenzhang, a criminal, kowtows to the master of the guard in black!"

    Daming Jinyiwei, really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even the black-clothed guards can be honored.

    Hong Yigong pretended to be arrogant, sat down slowly and said: "Get up. Your Majesty will send 800,000 troops this year. Shanshan, Hebei, and Liaodong are all at war. It is necessary to wipe out the fake Qing and the fake Shun. You are a generation who has forgotten their ancestors."  As a traitor, he has done a lot of evil things, and according to the law, all the houses should be ransacked and beheaded.¡±

    Just as Kong Wenzhang stood up, he shrank his neck and knelt down again in fright: "Master in black, please show me the way."

    "Is there any way out? It's nothing more than taking a crime and doing meritorious service," Hong Yigong said, "Every family sets fire in the city at night. After the fire starts, the city will be in chaos, and the Datong army outside the city will follow the trend to attack the city."

    Kong Wenzhang wondered: "The Tatar soldiers don't trust the Han people, so they don't let us help defend the city. There is a curfew at night, and they will be punished as spies if they walk around at will. This how to set fire to this?"

    Hong Yigong sneered and said: "Don't go out and set fire on the street, don't you know how to burn your own house?"

    "Burn your own house?" Kong Wenzhang was dumbfounded.

    Hong Chuxiu said: "My Hong family's house is definitely going to be burned. If you don't take the opportunity to make meritorious service, no matter how big the house is, it will be ransacked by the heavenly soldiers. Once you make meritorious service, even if the house is burned, are you afraid that you will not be prosperous in the future?"

    Kong Wenzhang pondered: "That's the truth. But well, burn it, burn it, the old one won't go, and the new one won't come!"

    A few days later, Hong Yigong contacted a total of four traitor merchants.

    They didn't say when to set the fire, but let them bury the silver and move all valuables to the courtyard.  The firewood is ready, first pour it with oil, and if someone sets fire at night, set it on fire.

    Curfew can not go to the street, they all can only burn their own home!

    As for Hong Yigong, he would lead people to take advantage of the chaos and continue to set fires. During the two years of lurking, he also developed several anti-Qing righteous fighters.

    After Lu Xiangsheng captured Baihu City, he waited patiently. He knew that there was an internal response in the city, and he was ready to attack the city at night.

    finally¡­¡­

    "Master, the city is on fire!"

    Lu Xiangsheng boarded the tower of Baihu City, clenched his fists and smiled: "As planned, attack the city immediately."

    The Hong family was the first to catch fire, and Han Yun sent a group of soldiers to check.

    When they came to the gate of Hong's house, Hong Chuxiu was sitting on the ground and crying: "My house, whoever paid a thousand dollars, bought my house! Is it easy for me to save some money by doing business? It will be burned down in one fire."  It's all gone woo woo woo, I'm dead!"

    Neighbors were afraid that their homes would be ignited, so they rushed to help put out the fire.

    The fire became more and more intense, and the Kong family on the same street also quickly ignited a big fire, and then four consecutive fires broke out.

    Han Yun came to the top of the city, overlooking the city.??, more than half of them have escaped.  The first troops of the Datong Army even took the opportunity to climb to the top of the city.

    Knowing that he could no longer defend, Han Yun said to his own soldiers: "Go and tell the Major General to go to Beicheng immediately. Remember, speak quietly, and don't disturb others."

    The soldiers rode away on horseback, ran for dozens of steps, suddenly reined in their horses, turned, and fled northward along the street.

    As for the major general?

    The major general is heroic, covering the escape of friendly troops, and fighting bloody battles in the city. He is really a loyal and brave soldier of our Qing Dynasty!

    When Han Yun rode home and took his family to the North City Gate, the Datong Army really entered the city.  The east wall was broken first, because the defenders here fled the most, and then the south wall collapsed.

    "Major General, the enemy is coming from the south wall!"

    "The southern city wall is facing the water, how could it be the first to fall? Where is my father?"

    After Han Ji asked this question, he already guessed something, immediately turned around and slipped back into the city, and rode towards the north gate of the city.

    As soon as he left, all the nearby defenders fled.

    However, after the Datong Army occupied the east wall, someone blew the horn immediately, and Lin Zhidong's cavalry hiding in the northern valley quickly rushed out of the valley after receiving the signal.

    The Tartars who escaped from the north gate will soon face the blade of more than two thousand dragoons.
