.Mingxue  Volume 3 The Ming Dynasty Resurrection Chapter 85 Negotiation

Jing. The entire front of the people was silent. If the Qing army had just said something, almost everyone was furious now. They stared at the small group of Ming soldiers who were shooting. They wanted to tear the Ming army into pieces with their eyes. If they could kill people, the Ming army would have been dead for hundreds of years.

Unfortunately, the Ming army did not care about Manchu's anger. Many people pointed at the bodies of the seven Manchu people outside the cart. They laughed loudly at Manchu and overestimated their abilities. Even if they were more than a hundred steps apart, these ridicules were clearly heard in their ears. The Ming army intended to anger them even more.

"Swish! Swish!" Several people couldn't help but pull out the bowstrings and shot the arrows at the Ming army camp. Unfortunately, the arrows were still dozens of steps away from the Ming army. The Ming army only mocked louder. The people who shot the arrows blushed.

"It would be great if there were artillery." Duoman couldn't help thinking.

The Qing army occupied the capital for five years. Most of the skilled craftsmen in the former Great Capital Military Weapon Bureau fell into the hands of the Qing army, including countless ordnances and staffs. There were many muskets and cannons. Unfortunately, in recent years, the artillery has been exhausted. The artillery cast by the Qing army was much worse than those cast by the Ming Dynasty. In order to conceal the army quickly marched with the army, in addition to bows and arrows and necessary weapons, the Qing army company did not carry large equipment, not to mention bulky artillery.

"It seems that fifty people have not touched the chief yet." Li Chengdong sighed a little and ordered to the back: "Pick another fifty prisoners of the same kind."

"Yes" an officer hurried down for a while, and another fifty people were escorted on the cart. The lessons from the previous cart were learned halfway through. The prisoners who were escorted over there already knew what they were facing. These half-aged children struggled desperately, but were tied up with their hands and escorted by Ming sabers. Their struggle was useless. It just caused more trouble to themselves.

Seeing another ten and a half-year-old boys escorting into the cart, the Qing army camp was in agitation. They could no longer tolerate their tribesmen being massacred under their noses. Many Qing troops led their war horses over and turned over and looked like they were ready to rush out at any time. Four Zhenghuang Banner officers and soldiers who recognized their children couldn't wait to rush towards Ming.

"!Bang!" Gunshot. The four Zhenghuang Banners who rushed out had their men and horses shot into sieves.

"Ama Ama..." The four boys on the car desperately shouted that the four of them could no longer respond to them.

The four dead people cleared the impulsive minds. Many of them unconsciously put down their tight reins and rushed out to the Ming army as a target, let alone the orders of the emperor's father and the regent. They just escaped by chance and were punished.

"-Execution!" Chen Sanshu's voice rang coldly. He was the one who was responsible for the execution.

Hearing Chen Sanshu's order, ten long swords were raised at the same time. In the sun, the blade was shining with a shining cold light. Many people couldn't help but turn their heads and couldn't bear to look at it any longer.

""

With a "crack." More than forty heads rolled up. The reason for only more than forty heads was that when the execution of the Ming army's big knife was cut down, the two prisoners rolled down the cart with all their might. The knife cut in the air did not cut their necks and just cut a long hole in their abdomen.

"Ah!" The two prisoners screamed loudly. Huahua's intestines flowed out of his stomach. Their hands were tied and they could not die for a while. The intense pain made them roll around. The screams were so tragic that even Ming Jun, who was executing the execution, could not bear it.

Ming Jun raised the musket in his hand and aimed at the two prisoners rolling upwards. He was about to pull the machine, but the gun body was held back: "Don't fire it. Just let them."

"Yes, sir." Seeing that it was Sanshu who spoke, a hint of unbearable expression flashed in the eyes of the two soldiers. He put away the gun again and let the two prisoners wail.

A Ming, carrying a big bow, came to the front and tied a letter to an arrow. With a "swoosh" sound, the arrow fell between the two armies. Seeing the arrow tied with a letter, a Qing army hurriedly ran over to pick it up and returned to the camp. The Qing army pulled the letter away on the spot and handed it to a literate Qing army and read it out: "The name is Fu, the father of the Qing Dynasty, the King of Zheng, Lord Dor. The Ming Dynasty is still a country of etiquette. Although they are enemies of each other, they cannot bear to hurt women, children and elderly people. Then they proposed to use Qingshui.

Replace your captives. But I didn't think that I was so inhumane. Even Qingshui was unwilling to replace it. Which is more important, Qingshui or human life? I hope you will consider it. I still have seven people in my hands. If you are stubborn, I will be forced to give him a command to execute a group of prisoners every half an hour until you agree or execute the prisoners. Killing people is not what I want. All the women and children who die are the ones who are not saved when they die."

The one who killed you said that it was you. This looks a bit bumpy, black and white. However, both Manchus and Mongolians have a tradition of redeeming prisoners. The other party has agreed to exchange

The items exchanged are just valuable clean water. They are really the cheapest, but the situation is special. No one will disagree without changing it. But it is also the special situation. They will agree to exchange it with clean water. If you refuse, it seems that the responsibility is what you have said.

After hearing this letter, some of the resentment that had gritted teeth towards Ming Jun just now disappeared and became confused. Many people even thought unconsciously that if the Ming Jun was not the Zhenghuang Banner but the captives of Zhengbai Banner, would the emperor's father and the regent be so heartless?

"Let's go. Let's plead with the emperor's father and the regent. Rescue the old and weak in Zhenghuang Banner. Minggou is already surrounded here and cannot escape. So what if you give them ten more days?" A Qing army suggested first.

"Okay. I'll go."

"I'll go, too."

The Qing army immediately received a lot of support. Thousands of people suddenly rushed into the tent of Doer. Some people from two white flags even joined in it and walked towards Doer's tent.

Half an hour later, when the army took out the third group of prisoners, three fast horses ran out from the Qing army camp. They ran and shouted, "First time. Stay behind."

If only the Yellow Banners had to exchange the hostages with clear water, Doer would just be ignorant. But when the seven flags were also brought in, Doer would not consider the losses. If the Ming army let the old man of the Yellow Banners be killed, maybe the one who collapsed first was his own army. Doer would only send people to compromise.

"!" Chen Sanshu seemed to have not heard the call from the other side. Ming Jun's saber cut through. Another fifty heads fell.

"Wow." The three riders who came over strangled the horses and their faces were blue.

"Maylor Zhangjing, do you still have to go there?"

A Qing army on the right asked the person in the middle. The Qing army in the middle was about 30 years old. His face was slightly fat and seemed to have a smile at any time. This person was the Yellow Banner Meilezhangjing Ebilong. He used clear water to exchange for prisoners. He had a little bit of the smell of a city alliance. Except for Baya, his princes and ministers were unwilling to come. But Baya didn't even know the words. He was not good at speaking. Naturally, he could not act as an envoy. Ebilong was timid and afraid of things. He was just both civil and military, and could speak wisely. He became the best candidate for the envoy.

Bilong has always been kind to others among the Qing generals. He often smiled on his face, but his face was a little distorted at this moment. The Ming army knew that they were coming to negotiate, but he killed the prisoners mercilessly. As the head coach of the negotiation, he would not be much better in his heart.

Take a long breath. Ebilong suppressed the anger in his heart. Even the emperor's father, the Regent, did not compromise. How could he take the initiative to go back without authorization: "Go. Keep moving forward."

The Ming army did not make any difficulties with the arrival of Ebilong and the other three. As soon as the three approached, the Ming army moved a passage and put it in three places.

"Report to the Marquis. The commander of the Great Tartars sent people." A commander told Li Chengdong and Jiang Tianshui.

After hearing that the Qing army finally sent people over, Dong and Jiang Tianshui breathed a sigh of relief. The two looked at each other and smiled. Jiang Tianshui replied, "Take people here."

"yes."

Shortly after the personal soldiers went down, Bilong and the other two arrived at the tent. After meeting each other, Ebilong suppressed his anger and asked: "General Li, General Jiang, my envoy has come to ask the army to redeem the prisoners. Why do you still want to kill people?"

"Oh. It's a pity that there is this. The time for you to come is so coincidental. We still have half an hour now. I hope you can reach an agreement with our army. Otherwise, there will be fifty heads falling." Jiang Tianshui said lightly.

Long was so blocked that he couldn't speak. He originally wanted to use his eloquence to bargain with the Ming army. Seeing that the Ming army was so strong, Ebilong had a bad feeling in his heart. Sure enough, he retreated in the following negotiations.

The Ming army had seven thousand prisoners on hand. Jiang Tianshui did not agree to return the seven thousand prisoners to the Qing army. Instead, it was divided into seven days and returned one thousand people a day. The Qing army provided 10,000 water bags with clear water. The water bags were made of sheepskin. Almost one water bag was packed around 11 or 2 kilograms. That is to say, each person had to change more than 110 kilograms of clean water.

Although a strong man with a man with a weight of 150 or 60 kilograms, for women and children, except for some young and strong women, there are very few people with a weight of 100 kilograms. According to Ming Jun's previous change of water at equal weight, the man with a lot of people will undoubtedly suffer. It is just that water is equivalent to people. It is really difficult to bargain with Ebilong. I just agree that this is a loss.

Ebilong originally wanted Mingxian to return older children, but Jiang Tianshui insisted on returning them in the order of the elderly, the babies, women, and children over ten years old. As time became tighter, Ebilong only gritted his teeth and agreed.
