Chapter 723 Adults, villains are wronged!
On the official road near Digang, Taiping Prefecture, a team of green camp soldiers holding green flags were very happy because they had just captured and killed more than a hundred Zhejiang gangs, and dozens of Zhejiang gang prisoners and their wives and daughters, and were anxious to send Zhejiang gangs' ranks and prisoners to the city to ask for rewards.
This team of green camp soldiers were soldiers of Digang Water Camp. Wang Basen, who led the team, was very excited all the way. Looking at the head of Zhejiang Kou who was carrying a big basket, he became more and more happy when he looked at it. At the same time, he was also grateful that he was "always" again in time. If he hadn't been wise and decisive, he would have been arrested and killed.
Just four days ago, Wang Bazong was still brothers with these Zhejiang Kou who were captured and killed by him. He led his brothers to break his braids and vowed to be mortal with the Tartars. But when he heard that the pirate army was defeated at Nanjing City, Wang Bazong immediately regretted it. At that time, he was afraid that the news would be fake, so he specially sent people to the palace city to investigate, and it turned out to be confirmed that the pirates were really defeated. Now the Qing army in Nanjing is launching four large-scale pursuit and killing the pirates and Zhejiang Kou. The notice of the wanted Zhejiang Kou leader Zhang Huangyan from the Governor's Office of Liangjiang was also sent.
Overnight, Jiangnan actually changed color again! This was really a bad news, and it was even more unexpected than hearing the pirates invading Nanjing.
Wang Bazong, who was wearing a beast suit, was decisive after being frightened. He knew that this matter could not be delayed, so he again fired the green camp flag that night. The braids that had been strangled were already kept, and they were taken out now. No matter who they belonged, they just stuck to the back of their heads. However, the Zhejiang army in the same camp knew nothing about this matter, and was killed by the sudden rebellious Qing soldiers. The remaining dozens of people and their wives were all captured alive.
After succeeding, the King of Kings hurriedly led his troops to send the spoils and prisoners to the Fucheng City. These are the biggest evidence that the King of Kings had surrendered to the enemy. As long as these Zhejiang captains and prisoners were put in front of the great masters of the Fucheng City, who would dare to accuse him of a word, and who would dare to say that he had surrendered to the enemy?
In fact, Wang Bachang was not worried that the mansion would push him to be a scapegoat, because those guys were not clean. Before the Zhejiang Kou reached Taiping Mansion, they hurriedly sent people to accept the surrender. When Zhejiang Kou came, they all went to welcome the "King of Ming Dynasty". Who is still loyal to the Qing Dynasty? In other words, all the civil and military officials in Taiping Mansion were ordinary black, and no one knew who had done anything. The current situation is that everyone should redeem their merits and defrauded Nanjing and the court together to protect their lives. No one dared to jump out alone to cleanse themselves with the lives of their colleagues in the mansion.
Along the way, Wang Bashang sighed. The Zhejiang Kou actually treated them, the Qing generals, and gave him a job as the garrison of the Taiping Prefecture, which was much higher than the general. He thought he was taking the opportunity to make a fortune, but he did not expect that he would get on a sunken pirate ship, making him feel embarrassed.
"Let them go faster, when will they be able to get to the city after being slow?"
In a state of resentment, Wang Bashang was very dissatisfied with the progress of the prisoners, and scolded them with a whip and started to beat the prisoners and women who were unable to move. The soldiers under his command followed suit, but they didn't have much thought of pitying Hua Xiyu. They all started to be very poisonous. No matter whether you are like a flower or a blue moon, they were all beaten and discussed. There was no way, and these soldiers were also pointing at these pirates' families to save their lives. Compared with their lives, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she will not be responsible.
The whipping of the Qing soldiers made women and children start to cry, while the men gritted their teeth and whispered to sell these shameless people. Some people tried to break free from the ropes tied to their bodies, but they were in vain.
After walking for about half an hour, suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves coming from behind.
The sound of horse hooves shocked the Qing army. Because the troops stationed in Taiping Prefecture were all green camps, but there were no cavalry, they all looked shocked and suspicious, not knowing which soldiers were coming.
Did the Han army in Nanjing come so quickly?
Wang Bashang was also shocked by the sound of hooves, but he thought that the Han army in Nanjing was afraid of coming. There was news from the city that the Governor sent a lot of Han army to suppress the Zhejiang gangs, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
"Master, it seems that a sharp-eyed Qing soldier was looking at the team that appeared in sight, and his voice was trembling.
"The Eight Banners of Manchu and Mongolia?!"
Wang Bashu's face also changed drastically. Looking closely, all the people who came were pointed helmets and red tops, which was not the authentic Manchu and Mongolia Eight Banners soldiers!
"Avoid all, avoid all!"
The King of Kings was afraid that his subordinates who were unknown to the matter would block the road of Man and Meng, so he shouted loudly to let his subordinates retreat to both sides, so as not to get angry because the road was blocked. There were about dozens of Manchu and Mongolian cavalry coming, and they also appeared in the Qing army in front and drove over. The King of Kings of Kings hoped that these Manchu and Meng would not stop and left directly, but the Manchu and Mengn stopped.
The officer who was in charge, whether he was from Manzhou or Mongolian, immediately glanced at the green camp soldiers and the Zhejiang prisoners who were bound by them. The corners of his mouth moved slightly, and finally his eyes fell on the heads in the big baskets and spoke.
Wang Ba couldn't understand what Mr. Man Meng was talking about immediately, but he smiled flatteringly and kept nodding. He even had an illusion, as if Mr. Man Meng's voice was as pleasant as the sound of nature.
"Can you understand Lord Zuo Ling's words?"
The familiar words sounded in his ears made Wang Bazhong come to his senses. He looked up and saw that he was speaking a young Man Meng uncle, who spoke well in Chinese.
Wang Barman was stunned at first, his face turned red, and then he quickly shook his head: "Reply to the words of the adults, but the villain doesn't understand."
"I don't understand what you nodded?" The young Man Meng sneered, and the Man Meng around him burst into laughter.
The king looked embarrassed, his soldiers were worried, and the Zhejiang army prisoners and family members looked at the Manchu and Mongolian Tartars with hatred.
After the young Man Meng laughed, he asked Mr. Wang: "What kind of official are you?"
"The youngest one is Wang Youqing, the chief of Digang Water Camp." Wang Youqing said, taking out the label and holding it respectfully with both hands. The identity must be clear, otherwise if there is any misunderstanding between the Man Meng, Wang Youqing's head will be out of protection.
The young Man Meng took the waist card from the King's hand, looked at the Zuling who was beside him. The Zuling didn't look at it, and only said a few words to the young man. After hearing this, the young man nodded and asked Wang Youqing: "Who are these?"
"After my words, these are all the pirates Zhejiang Kou who led the troops to capture."
"Where are you going to take the person?"
"I'm going to send the person to the mansion."
After hearing this, the young Man Meng said a few words to the Zuo Ling beside him. Wang Youqing couldn't understand what they were saying, but he saw that the other party was looking at the back of his head from time to time when he was talking, and suddenly felt something was wrong. Sure enough, the young Man Meng suddenly pointed at him with an angry look on his face and shouted: "Take off your hat!"
"this…"
Wang Youqing dared not take off his hat. His braid is fake!
Seeing that Wang Youqing did not dare to take off his hat, the Manchu and Mongolian soldiers immediately drew their swords. The young Manchu and Mongolian Master even rushed forward and a scabbard weakened Wang Youqing's official hat. Because of the great force, the fake braid that Wang Youqing had stuck on him when the official hat flew out, and immediately appeared in front of Manchu Meng's bare head.
"Rebel!"
The young man Meng shouted loudly, threw off the scabbard, and immediately chopped Wang Youqing's neck.
"Sir, I'm so unfair, this little braid..."
Wang Youqing couldn't wash it even if he jumped into the Yellow River. He was so scared that he could not dodge. He watched Uncle Man Meng's long sword slashing his neck.
With a "puff", Wang Youqing's head fell to the ground.
Suddenly, Wang Youqing's battalion soldiers were shocked. Before they could react, dozens of Manchu and Mongolian cavalry swung their swords and rushed towards them.
"Give me your life, let me go!"
The soldiers screamed in succession, and no one dared to fight back. They only knew that they would kneel down on the ground and beg for mercy. However, the Manchus and Mengshu ignored them at all and slashed at them. Finally, the soldiers came to their senses and immediately ran away and ran away. The Manchus and Mengshushu were chasing each other. Before long, the more than 300 soldiers of the Digang Shui Camp were killed. Many of the soldiers did not understand why the Manchus and Mongolian soldiers of the Qing Dynasty wanted to kill themselves. They had just made great contributions and killed countless Zhejiang bandits!
The battalions did not understand, and the prisoners and families of the Zhejiang Army did not understand. The Manchu and Mongolian Tartars did not attack them when they were chasing the Qing army. It seemed that they were the Qing soldiers, while the battalions were the Ming soldiers.
After killing all the Qing army soldiers, the Manchu and Mongolian soldiers did not clean up the battlefield or search for spoils, but gathered quickly and continued to move forward. From beginning to end, these Manchu and Mongolian Tatars ignored the Zhejiang Army and others, making the Zhejiang Army extremely confused and each of them felt like a dream.
