The Ming Dynasty began from Sarhu

Chapter 110 Tyrant
"Liu Zhaosun has the audacity to plant spies in Shenyang, inciting the ignorant people to murder the Khan. We should simply let the Yehe people into the city and work with the loyal citizens to kill these spies and seize their property. This will not only win over Yehe, but also recruit the loyal citizens of Shenyang and use them for the Jin Dynasty. Finally, it will also cut off the escape routes of Yehe's fence-sitters. When we fight Liu Zhaosun in a decisive battle, they won't stab us in the back!"

Tong Yangxing had a stern expression on his face as he gave the Khan a serious analysis and suggested that he should just massacre the city.

The lives and deaths of tens of thousands of Liao people in the city seemed meaningless to him. Ever since his brother's tragic death, all his energy had been devoted to revenge. When he heard that there were still a large number of spies in Shenyang, his first thought was to massacre the city and kill all the Liao people who might be spies.

In fact, there is another reason that Tong Yangxing did not say.

If he were to withdraw his troops after being defeated in this battle, Shenyang would fall into the hands of Liu Zhaosun. He could not leave an intact city to this bastard Liu Zhaosun.

"Liu Zhaosun has always loved his people. When he learned that Shenyang had been massacred, he would definitely not let the Yehe people go. This would cut off their escape route, and these Haixi people would truly be on the same side with our Great Jin."

Tong Yangxing concluded:
"This plan achieves three goals at once: it reassures Yehe, secures the support of the obedient people of Shenyang, and eliminates the threat of spies."

"If the Khan had agreed yesterday, the Khorchin people wouldn't have fled. I believe the Khan is kind-hearted and couldn't bear to kill them. But the Liao people are hateful. They don't know the grace of heaven, but are deceived by Liu Zhaosun! They have betrayed the Khan's love for his people!"

After Tong Yangxing finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and waited quietly for Nurhaci's order.

The eyes of the Later Jin Khan flashed as he swept over the people around him, sometimes violent, sometimes solemn, like spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Unexpectedly, the great hero who once rebelled against the tax collector and rose to prominence out of the seven major hatreds would actually go so far as to massacre the city and kill people.

Of course, Nurhaci didn't know that even if Liu Zhaosun had not appeared, a few years later, he would fall into the evil path for another reason and become the biggest butcher in Liaodong.

Liu Zhaosun only made this jackal reveal its true colors earlier.

The soul of the young boy who was executed by slow slicing hid at the bottom of the dark soul-calming bottle and smiled foolishly.

The enemy who slaughtered his family finally turned into a devil.

The Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty listened patiently to Tong Yangxing's words, thought for a long time, and sighed deeply:
"Haha, I'm very pleased. The only one who understands my feelings is Tong Efu! Since I started my army, I have treated the Han people of Liaodong much better than the Mongols and Jurchens. I have raised their flags and distributed land to them, but the Liao people are ungrateful and have repeatedly plotted to murder me. If this is the case, they don't deserve to be human anymore!"

"I don't mind if the Hunhe magic weapon suppresses tens of thousands more evil spirits!"

"Tong Efu, Shenyang must not be in chaos, and we must not discourage the people who obey us. We must do what needs to be done. This matter must be handled immediately!"

"twitter!"

The Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty is going to massacre the city.

The fifteen-year-old Du Du, leader of the Bordered White Banner, looked around anxiously. His uncles were not there, and Daishan, who was the closest, was still fighting hard with the Zhejiang soldiers.

Right now, he's the only one of his generation. If the Eighth Prince were here, that would be great. He would definitely not support the massacre.

He couldn't bear to see Tong Yangxing, this dog slave, misleading the people and driving the Khan crazy step by step.

"Great Khan, you must not massacre the city! The Nikan spies are only a minority. Our Great Jin is not a jackal or tiger. Shenyang is the foundation of Liaodong. If we massacre them, how can we gain a foothold in Liaodong in the future?"

When he said this, he pointed at Tong Yangxing and cursed:
"You little bastard, you are of Han descent. How could you do such a cruel thing to a Han Chinese? Are you still a human being?!"

Apart from Duoduo and Dorgon, Dudu was Nurhaci's most favored descendant, which is why he dared to scold Tong Yangxing and even directly contradict the Khan. Compared with his uncles, he was much less beastly.

Tong Yangxing glanced at the young prince without a trace of his usual respectfulness.

"Little Prince is right. I am a Han Chinese, but I am also the Great Khan's servant! I know who the enemy of the Great Jin is, and I also know who my own enemy is! I am devoted to my country and have no selfish motives."

Du Du stared blankly at this arrogant dog slave, not reacting for a moment. Tong Yangxing continued:
"Little Prince, do you know who the enemy of the Great Jin is?"

Du Du was stunned when Tong Yangxing asked him this question.

"Why did the young prince let Mao Wenlong go yesterday? Do you really think the Khan doesn't know about this?"

Du Du stared at Tong Yangxing blankly, feeling that this man was like a mad dog, becoming more and more crazy.

Du Du's face flushed, and he drew his knife and was about to kill Tong Yangxing.

"Stop! If you have nothing to hide, what's wrong with letting Tong Efu say a few words? How did Mao Wenlong escape? The city walls are surrounded by armored soldiers. Could it be that you really let him go?"

Du Du quickly refuted:

"Great Khan, don't listen to Tong Yangxing's nonsense. His brother is dead, so why not kill Liu Zhaosun and take it out on the Liao people? I think he is deliberately severing the foundation of the Great Jin. His heart is worthy of death! Perhaps there is some connection with Liu Zhaosun."

Nurhaci waved his hand to interrupt the young prince and was about to continue asking about Mao Wenlong when Ge Shiha outside shouted:
"Commander Ding requests an audience with the Khan!"

The Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty and Tong Yangxing looked at each other. Wasn’t this loyal and righteous man already dead?
"Let him in!"

Nurhaci felt strange, but thinking that the Jin Dynasty needed people at that time and Ding Bi was an extremely loyal servant, he quickly asked Geshiha to bring the person in.

Tong Yangxing was shocked. The day before yesterday, there was an explosion on the top of the north gate, and the burning gunpowder caused flames all over the sky. Almost no one escaped.

Many people were burned to charcoal, and it was impossible to tell who was dead. Finally, the Khan had no choice but to follow the Jurchen custom and burn more than a dozen bodies together to ashes.

I didn’t expect Ding Bi to still be alive!

Tong Yangxing nodded and explained to himself that good fortune is indeed a blessing from heaven.

Under the leadership of Goshiha, a military general, fully armored and as strong as a bear, strode into the tent. When he saw the Khan of the Later Jin Dynasty, he knelt down.

"I am Ding Bi, the Lieutenant General of Tieling, and I am here to see the Khan!" He slowly raised his head and everyone looked at him.

What was presented to everyone was a broken face, ugly and horrified. From the wound on the cheek, one could faintly see the white bones underneath.

Nurhaci thought of the young man with white hair who was trapped in the soul-calming bottle by him, and he must have looked like this.

He didn't care how Ding Bi survived. He smiled with a sinister look in his eyes:
"Lieutenant General Ding, do you want to seek revenge on Liu Zhaosun? I heard that he took all your wealth. I promise you can take it back in Shenyang! You have to help me kill someone!"

Ding Bi, who looked like a human bear, kowtowed twice and said in a voice that was not human:

"Li Efu used his body to block the flying wood chips, which saved me from death. I have become what I am today, neither human nor ghost, all thanks to Liu Zhaosun! While I am still alive, all I want is to skin this man alive!"

Nurhaci smiled slightly, turned to Tong Yangxing and said:

"Tong Efu, Lieutenant General Ding is naturally brave and a famous general in Liaozhen. He is familiar with Shenyang. With his help, killing people will be easier. You take the Yehe people and enter the city to search for spies. I am now fully focused on dealing with Liu Zhaosun. Shenyang must not disturb me! You must capture all the spies. Of course, any Liao people related to the spies must not be spared! Execute them all."

Tong Yangxing planned to temporarily recruit two hundred obedient citizens. These people have always been loyal to the Jin Dynasty and are waiting to raise the flag to become the master. They are a force that can be utilized. Together with his own servants, the manpower should be enough.

Let the Yehe people do the massacre in the city. Only by striking the grass can the snake be alerted. They can hide in the dark and wait for these spies to show up.

He was about to agree when the beast-like Ding Bi said coldly:
"Great Khan, there is no need to use Bayala, the servants will do."

"I fought with them yesterday and even captured one alive. I got some information from them. They are the wolf soldiers from Po Tie Ling. This time, I will personally take revenge! After killing these wolf soldiers, I will personally kill Liu Zhaosun!"

Nurhaci nodded in satisfaction. Lieutenant General Ding was indeed ruthless. This was exactly the kind of person he needed. If he didn't use ruthless tactics, how could he show his compassion?
Thinking back, I was too tolerant of Nikam in the past.

That's why some people always oppose me.

The king and his two ministers continued to discuss the details of the massacre, and they were very excited when they talked about it.

The young Du Du of the Bordered White Banner stood far away.

He stared at the three people blankly, his face filled with horror.

He didn't know when, but his beloved Khan had become the same as these two Nikan scum, the demon in the Jurchen story, the human goblin who was finally killed by Changshengtian.

Maybe it was the devil.

Du Du glanced at Fan Wencheng, and the two were about to leave when a man named Ge Shiha suddenly came in from outside and reported loudly:
"Khan! The Ming army has begun to cross the river!"

~~~~~~
On the north bank of the Hun River, Liu Zhaosun stepped onto the floating bridge again and looked up at the city of Shenyang on the south bank.

The wounds on his body were simply bandaged and applied with medicine, so he was not seriously injured for the time being.

Kang Yingqian advised General Liu not to go to the battlefield in person again. Liu Zhaosun told General Kang that he wanted to take revenge.

To avenge his adoptive father Liu Jing, to avenge Xiong Jinglue, and even more so, to avenge the millions of Liao people who died.

Two guards from the central guard team now stand in the place where Jin Yuji's guards used to be. They are both experts in close combat.

The two men were fully armored, one hand on the scabbard of their swords, the other holding a round shield, guarding the general on both sides, watching the Later Jin archers opposite vigilantly.

The man opposite, Bayala of the Bordered Yellow Banner who had just humiliated Liu Zhaosun, now looked at the well-organized Kaiyuan soldiers on the north bank with a dull expression.

Under the threat of the powerful military aura, he did not dare to shoot arrows at Liu Zhaosun again.

The Liao people's shrill screams were heard in the city, and flames were everywhere. Brigadier General Ding and Tong Efu, who had turned into demons, were leading the Yehe people to search the city for wolf soldiers.

Liu Zhaosun looked at the city of Shenyang where smoke was rising. He could imagine the scene of countless people being slaughtered, just like the Kaiyuan city back then.

Other things like this:

"Nurhaci, you have finally fallen into the devil's way. You have torn off the hypocritical mask of the wise Khan and turned back into a murderous demon and a mandrill devil!"

"Sir, the battle camp has been deployed, and the Jiannu have not yet broken the bridge. Should we cross the river immediately?"

"They want a decisive battle on the South Bank. Let them have their wish!"

Deng Changxiong, wearing armor, saluted Liu Zhaosun, reined in his horse, stood on the bank of Hunhe River and began to command the battle.

Because Liu Zhaosun was injured, Deng Changxiong was responsible for the front-line command this time.

However, as the commander-in-chief of the entire army, he must appear on the battlefield to boost the morale of the soldiers.

I don’t know when it started, but Liu Zhaosun has become the soul of this army.

Liu Zhaosun, who has always been aggressive, can finally try the same thing as Qiao Yiqi this time.

Unmoving as a mountain.

"Cross the river!"
