Chapter 819 Jinan Empty City

When the Qing army arrived at the city of Jinan, they saw that the city gate was opened and the suspension bridge was lowered, and there was no one on the top of the city. Duoduo picked up a monocular telescope to observe the city of Jinan, but did not find anyone on the top of the city. The flagpole on the city gate tower was empty. Looking inside from the city gate hole, he saw that there was no one inside.

"It's strange, Jinan City is empty? Who is the governor of Shandong in Minggou?" Duoduo asked Fang Dayou, the pseudo Shandong Governor beside him with some surprise.

Fang Dayou replied: "Return to the master, it is Li Yan, a thief who surrendered to Minggou."

"It turns out to be Li Yan, the military advisor of the Dashun Army," Duoduo said, "This man has many tricks. He can enter the capital. This man has made great contributions. But he didn't expect that this man would actually surrender to the Ming Dynasty."

Geng Zhongming said: "Your prince is worried about an ambush inside?"

"Of course I'm afraid of ambush!" Dorgon snorted, "Gu Yi is familiar with the Three Kingdoms. The Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers are invincible in the world. Gu is not afraid of Li Yan playing an empty city plan with us, but he is afraid that Li thieves will build a Jinan empty city and give me the Qing heavenly soldiers a fire to Xinye!"

After hearing Duoduo's words, Luke Dehun, Tan Tai, He Luohui, Yue Erduo and other groups of Manchu generals who were familiar with the Three Kingdoms all gasped. The Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers were invincible in the world, but no matter how powerful the Eight Banners soldiers were, they were flesh and blood. When all the Eight Banners soldiers entered the city, if Li Yan really had a plan to burn Xinye, most of the 40,000 Eight Banners elites (excluding the Han Eight Banners) would be burned to death. Li Yan led his men to take advantage of the chaos to fight, maybe all the 40,000 Eight Banners elites would have to be explained here.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, let those slaves go in and explore the way first. If there are ambushers in the city, those slaves will die." Kong Youde pointed to the auxiliary soldiers of the Green Camp who were unloading goods from the baggage vehicles and offered a plan to Duoduo.

Duoduo nodded: "Okay, Ruitu, let's act according to your plan, and urge those dog slaves to enter the city first!"

"Zhe!" Kong Youde beat him up and retreated.

"Have you moved the things? After moving, you are ready to enter the city! Once you enter the city, you can grab enough! You need food, silver, and all the girls!" A Qing soldier from the Eight Banners of Han walked to the ragged green camp auxiliary soldiers and drew them a beautiful big cake.

These yellow-faced, thin-skinned and ragged auxiliary soldiers in the green camp all had green lights in their eyes. They were originally the lowest auxiliary soldiers in the Ming army. They were coolies when they marched, they had to work when they set up camps, and they were cannon fodder when they were fighting, so they could not take the blame. Now, although they are still the most inferior auxiliary soldiers, they are different after our Qing Dynasty, at least they will not owe to military pay.

Moreover, whenever a city is broken, as long as the master does not order a knife seal, these auxiliary soldiers can massacre, rob and rape them all the time, and in short, they will do all kinds of evil.

Every time the Qing army massacred the city, these green camp auxiliary soldiers worked the most, because this was a good opportunity for them to get rich, and they could also enjoy the rich ladies who were difficult for them to even meet. These stinky poor soldiers were difficult to marry a wife on weekdays, but after breaking the city, they could get benefits they could not imagine before.

"Go into the city, grab money, grain, and girls!" The grassroots officer of the green camp shouted excitedly.

Groups of green camp soldiers rushed into the open city gate in chaos, and Liu Liangzuo, who was standing behind, had a cloud of clouds on his face. It was obvious that there must be a trap inside the empty city of Jinan. The Eight Banners soldiers and the Han Eight Banners themselves refused to go in first, but let the Green Camp soldiers under his command go into the city to test first. Fortunately, it was not all Liu Liangzuo's soldiers who entered, but all the Green Camp soldiers drew some auxiliary soldiers into it.

After entering the city, the auxiliary soldiers of the Green Camp who were excited to enter the city and were preparing to rob a lot of money only discovered that there was no one in the city!

"No, will you be ambushed?" A grassroots officer from the green camp who had heard books asked worriedly. He had heard from the story of Mr. Shu talk about "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" many times before. Zhuge Liang's resourcefulness made him admire him. When he saw the empty city of Jinan, he immediately recalled the burning of Xinye.

"Sir, I'm afraid there will be an ambush, otherwise we will leave the city?" said a green camp soldier.

"Leave the city?" The boss shook his head, "The Qing Dynasty's military discipline is strict, and you will definitely die when you leave the city. It's better to search the city and see if there are any ambush."

"Sir, if Mingdog really has an ambush, we will all have to die!" said the Green Camp soldier.

After hearing what his soldiers were saying, the Green Camp felt a sense of sadness in his heart. He was an auxiliary soldier in the Ming Dynasty. After surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, his life was obviously much better. He also robbed the daughter of a small landlord family as his wife. He had a son some time ago. Thinking that he might die here, his wife, children and money would become someone else's, this boss felt uncomfortable.

Anyway, if you escape from the city, you will die. The Eight Banners soldiers who were under the formation behind aimed at the city gate with muskets and bows. If someone escaped, they would open the gun and fire the arrow without hesitation. Instead of being killed by deserters, it would be better to search carefully in the city, and perhaps they could make some money.

The Green Camp soldiers searched door to door in the empty city, entered the house, rummaged through boxes and cabinets, and searched carefully. It was not so much that they were searching for the Ming army, but rather that they were making some money. The result disappointed these Green Camp soldiers. After searching in the city for a long time, they could not find a single hair of the Ming army, and they did not find any gold, silver and treasures. They didn't even find a few copper plates, and only found a bunch of tattered bottles and jars.

"Sir, I didn't find the Ming Dog!"

"Sir, I didn't find gold, silver and treasures."

A Qing soldier from the Green Camp asked: "Sir, have you informed the outside of the city that the city is safe?"

Mr. Ba asked, "Have you been to the Prince De Mansion?"

"The brothers have driven away long ago, and found nothing except for finding a bunch of broken pieces."

"What kind of rags?"

“Some calligraphy and paintings and porcelain.”

He glared at the eyes of the general: "Idiot! The things in the Prince De's Mansion are all good things, what kind of tattered calligraphy and painting porcelain? They are all treasures."

Then he brought the general to the Dewang Mansion in person, and saw that the gate of the Dewang Mansion was open and the building was empty. In the empty mansion, the Qing soldiers were rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find things. From time to time, they could find a few pieces of copper plates, a small piece of broken silver, and missed jewelry. When Li Yan arranged for the evacuation of the military and civilians in Jinan City, the Dewang family ran away and took away all the gold, silver and treasures in the mansion, leaving only some inconvenient porcelain and invaluable calligraphy and paintings. There was a little broken silver in the corner, and some women didn't know where to receive jewelry.

"Don't just stare at copper coins and silver, calligraphy, porcelain, copper cauldron, and incense burner here, which one is not a good thing!" Zhang Zheng shouted.

When the Green Camp soldiers searched the Prince De's Mansion almost completely, the President sent people out of the city to report to the Manchu Taijun, saying that the city was safe and there were no Minggou ambushers.

"Prince, the city is safe and you can enter the city." Kong Youde said with a flattering smile on his face.

Duoduo snorted coldly: "King Shun, let's wait!" After saying that, he turned around and shouted: "Set up camp on the spot, all the Eight Banners soldiers are stationed outside the city, and some elite green camp soldiers stayed to station on the periphery of the camp!"

"Your Majesty is too careful, right?" Geng Zhongming said.

Duoduo said: "Be careful to sail the ten thousand years of ship. Li Yan is very tricky. Behind him is the insidious and vicious Li Lao Er! Both of them are good at using tricks! Have you forgotten that Yue Tobele's death? Even the lonely fourteenth brother has been defeated by this person many times, can you be careless? If Li Lao Er gets a fire to Xinye, we have to explain here!"

"The prince is wise!" Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming flattered.
