Chapter 456 (1/2)

The old woman was stunned. She didn't expect that Li Yuanqing's attitude had changed so much that she couldn't react for a moment.

But she was not ordinary. She was stunned for a moment and said with a quick smile, ”you are really joking. My surname is Cao. My neighbors call me Cao erniang. If you have any orders, just tell me. ”

Li Yuanqing nodded with a smile, ”Er Niang? ha-ha. That's a good name. By the way, er Niang, I really have something to do. I want to trouble you. ”

Cao Er Niang said with a smile, ”Sir, please speak up. I'm all ears. ”

Li Yuanqing said with a smile, ”Er Niang, you are a familiar face in Zhenjiang city. I'm new here and want to invite the gentry in Zhenjiang city to dinner. Please arrange this matter for me, er Niang. ”

Cao Er Niang was stunned, and her face did not change. However, Li Yuanqing said that she had no way to refuse. She was stunned for a moment, and her voice trembled and said, ”master, slave and maid, I will go and do this.”

Hearing her change of address, Li Yuanqing faintly smiles, ”Er Niang, you don't have to be nervous. It's a good old saying. If you often walk by the river, how can you keep your shoes wet? As long as you are at ease to do things for me, I will guarantee your safety. ”

”Yes. Yes. Thank you for your grace, thank you for your grace. ”

………

Li Yuanqing's eyes narrowed slightly as he watched Cao Er Niang leave with a few servant girls, and slowly let out a long breath.

Although the battle of Zhenjiang city was smooth in the war, it was far from simple to make it a reality.

In the first year of Tianqi, Mao Wenlong's success in conquering Zhenjiang city was almost bloodless. One of the most important factors was that he was supported by the gentry in the city's heart.

But at this time, four years have passed, just born baby, already can run, everything, already changed.

At that time, Zhenjiang city was broken down, and countless gentry and common people in the city were slaughtered by the Jin army. Although Li Yuanqing did not do well enough, he was undoubtedly better than Mao Wenlong

In other words, at this time, Mao Wenlong's reputation in Zhenjiang city was far from comparable to that in other parts of Liaoning Province. In other words, his reputation in Zhenjiang city was already stinking

But it is not entirely to blame the people of Zhenjiang city.

The city head changes the king's flag.

For the common people, this is a very painful thing in itself.

In particular, the barbarians of the later Jin Dynasty, the slaughter of the city was just like a common meal.

Mao Wenlong can walk away with a pat on the buttocks, but the common people are almost unarmed. How can they compete with the ferocious eight flag cavalry?

It was like the new meeting of Guangdong and Guangxi.

The people of Xinhui did everything they could to resist the anti Qing armed forces of the Han people. They were ten times more fierce than fighting against the Manchu Qing Dynasty, causing great damage to their compatriots.

Why is this?

Isn't it because they were scared by the inhumane slaughterhouse of Manchu and wanted to leave some legacy and fireworks for their clans?

Li Yuanqing knew very well that even though there were 50000 troops in the south of Liaoning and Dongjiang, it was still very unrealistic for him to stick to it.

At this time, although there was a slaughterhouse in the later Jin Dynasty in the first year of Tianqi, because Li Yuanqing and the headquarters of Dongjiang became more and more powerful, the latter Jin Dynasty also implemented a ”contraction” strategy in Liaodong region, which made a large number of people in the surrounding areas crowded in Zhenjiang city. At this time, there were at least 50000 people in Dingkou.

Finally, I tried my best to win the Zhenjiang city.

In the past, Li Yuanqing had no ability and no choice. He could only choose to protect himself and save his life first. However, at this time, Li Yuanqing has already had the power to control the universe. He must be responsible for the people in Zhenjiang city!

Be responsible for Daming and the Chinese nation!!

………

After a short rest on the soft couch in the living room of the central hall, it was already afternoon.

Niu Gensheng is waiting on the side. Seeing Li Yuanqing awake, he hastens forward and whispers: ”general, the casualties and results of this war have been counted out.”

Said, busy will a stack of books, respectfully handed to Li Yuanqing's hand.

Li Yuanqing eased his hands and feet, opened the book and glanced at it. His eyes were gloomy for a moment.

There were nearly 700 casualties in the camp, of which more than 300 were killed.

Most of them are long spearmen, and the cause of death is also very direct. They were hit and trampled to death by horses in the confrontation with the Houjin cavalry.

However, many wounded soldiers have broken arms and legs, and in heavy cases, they are afraid that there is something wrong with their internal organs.

Because Chen Zhong was not the main attack, he entered the city later and suffered less casualties, about 500 people.

Zhang pan has about 200 people there.

Mao Wenlong's personal sequence of casualties is very few, only dozens of people.

The main reason is that they did not join the war at the first time. Most of the casualties were injured when they went to the city to clear up the remaining gold.

However, there must be gains and losses. In terms of the results of this campaign, there were also many gains.The Ming army totally suppressed more than 2100 levels of the first Tartars, of which zhennu exceeded 1000.

This is a rare victory for the Ming army in recent years!

More importantly, the Ming army recovered Zhenjiang.

If you report to the imperial court, Mao Wenlong's achievements and reputation will surely go up to a higher level.

In addition, there are a lot of materials and goods in the city. These casualties seem less dazzling.

Li Yuanqing suddenly felt that with the passage of time and the rise of his status, he seemed to have lost his original reverence for life.
