Chapter 79
Outside the city!
From the time Zhu Ying led the army to attack the city until now, it was already approaching the evening of another day; Fu Fu Youde had been waiting outside the city the whole time, also leading the main army and supervising the battle to obtain results.
"It has been nearly a day and a night."
Fu Fu Youde raised his head to look at the sun that was about to set, and spoke slowly, his words revealing his concern for the battle situation.
"General."
"The overall situation in Jincheng is already settled."
"Our army has already charged into the city; no matter how the Yuan army resists, it will be of no avail," the commander of the personal guards said with a smile.
"Yes."
"The results are already achieved."
Fu Fu Youde smiled; although he was expectant, he was no longer worried.
Just at this moment!
Clip-clop.
Clip-clop, clip-clop.
A series of galloping sounds swept over.
A group of scout generals charged out from the city.
"Reporting to the General."
"Jincheng, has been taken."
"The main general guarding Jincheng, Prince of Yun'an Man Man Jier, was personally beheaded by General Zhu Ying."
"With Man Man Jier's death, the Yuan army in the city collapsed like a mountain; some fled, and some surrendered," the scout platoon leader reported excitedly.
Hearing this result.
A look of excitement also appeared on Fu Fu Youde's face.
"Good, good, good."
Fu Fu Youde called out the word "good" three times, appearing incomparably excited.
"The merit of breaching Jincheng belongs entirely to Zhu Ying."
"Breaching the city gate, being the first to charge into the city, and beheading the Northern Yuan main general Man Man Jier."
"This is a great merit for occupying Jincheng."
Fu Fu Youde said with a laugh.
"Now the various generals ask how the General wants to deal with those surrendered Yuan soldiers," the scout platoon leader said respectfully.
"Transmit my order."
"Those Yuan soldiers who surrender will be spared."
"Those who do not surrender will be killed without mercy."
Fu Fu Youde said immediately.
"This subordinate accepts the order," the scout platoon leader immediately turned his horse's head and quickly charged into the city.
"Order the logistics army to set up pots and cook food, prepare meat; the soldiers have been campaigning for a day, they should be rewarded."
"Also, order the wounded soldier camp to prepare to receive the wounded immediately and treat them with all their might," Fu Fu Youde immediately ordered the commander of the personal guards beside him.
"This subordinate accepts the order."
The commander of the personal guards immediately sent personal guards to convey the order.
"General."
"Jincheng is already settled."
"Should we report to General Feng?" the commander of the personal guards said with a smile.
"The battle situation is settled, it is indeed time."
Fu Fu Youde smiled and then said: "Jincheng, Kaiyuan City! Whoever breaches them first will have the first merit of this campaign to conquer Liaodong; Marquis Marquis Yongchang was ultimately slow this time."
"Report the battle situation of Jincheng truthfully, especially Zhu Ying's military merit, report it quickly."
"I want to personally request merit for Zhu Ying and ask General Feng to submit a memorial to Ying Tian."
The commander of the personal guards bowed: "This subordinate accepts the order."
Inside the city!
Following Man Man Jier's death, a large number of Yuan soldiers fled, and the Ming army was pursuing them bravely.
Zhu Ying was not among them; instead, he ordered Wei Quan to lead the army in pursuit, while he himself led the army to charge into the administrative mansion.
Cleaning up the remaining Yuan soldiers in the mansion.
Of course.
Zhu Ying also had other thoughts.
This mansion was Man Man Jier's residence.
As a Northern Yuan Prince, shouldn't there be some treasures?
The battle situation in Jincheng was already settled.
If he didn't take the opportunity to loot a wave during this chaos, Zhu Ying would be sorry for himself.
The storage space was still very large; after all attributes increased to two thousand, it increased by another ten cubic meters; if such a large space wasn't used to carry some treasures, it would be too wasteful.
"Transmit my military order."
"Do not kill the innocent indiscriminately."
"The servants in this mansion only need to kneel to be spared."
After charging into the mansion, Zhu Ying also ordered the soldiers under his command to be restrained.
After charging into the city, every soldier was naturally red-eyed from fighting the Yuan army to the death, and accidental injuries were unavoidable; whenever there was war, civilians suffered, and Zhu Ying could only try his best to restrain them.
"We will strictly follow the military order."
The soldiers said in unison.
Then they charged toward various parts of this large mansion to wipe out the remaining Yuan soldiers.
"General."
"We have discovered the warehouse of this mansion."
"We just interrogated a servant and got the location."
Liu Lei walked over quickly with a few personal guards.
This was naturally what Zhu Ying had let them search for.
"Let's go."
Zhu Ying's eyes lit up, and he said immediately.
Under Liu Lei's guidance.
They soon arrived at the backyard of the mansion.
A warehouse came into view.
"Take people to guard outside, don't let anyone approach," Zhu Ying gave an instruction to Liu Lei.
Then he walked toward the warehouse with large strides.
This warehouse didn't look simple.
It wasn't a wooden door, but an iron door, with a large lock on it, and this warehouse was also built of brick and stone.
If the Ming army hadn't charged into the city and breached this mansion, perhaps this warehouse would still have Man Man Jier's personal guards guarding it.
"I hope there are good things inside," Zhu Ying smiled.
He held the Qinghong Sword and slashed.
With a crack.
This iron lock was easily slashed open.
Zhu Ying pushed the door open and entered directly.
Coming into view.
Gold light shone.
And there was the silver light of white silver.
"Damn."
"The historical records are not wrong."
"After the Northern Yuan retreated, they looted gold and silver treasures on a large scale in the Central Plains; every Northern Yuan noble who fled was filthy rich."
"Sure enough, it's not wrong."
"This Man Man Jier is really rich."
"This warehouse of gold and silver, not to mention more, is worth at least two or three hundred thousand gold."
"And it's not just gold, there is also silver, jewelry, and jade."
"Coming here this time was right."
"After getting so many gold and silver treasures, I will have the startup capital to develop my own strength in the future."
Looking at these piled-up gold and silver treasures, Zhu Ying's heart couldn't help but jump, feeling incomparably excited.
Afterward.
Zhu Ying didn't waste any time at all; he walked directly to the piled-up gold, put his hand on it, and collected it directly.
This time.
Zhu Ying was destined to make a huge profit.
This warehouse of gold and silver, not to mention more, he would at least take away the majority, leaving some to hand in as a report.
And at this moment.
Outside the Jincheng mansion.
When Zhao Yong and Wang Bi led the army to break through the Yuan army's defensive line and arrived at the center of the city's administrative center, looking at the patrolling cavalry and the soldiers guarding the mansion.
The two men's expressions were incomparably ugly.
It wasn't just the two of them whose expressions were ugly.
The many generals under their command also had ugly expressions.
After charging into the city, they fought hard, fought the Yuan army to the death with all their might, wanting to compete for the merit of capturing the Jincheng Yuan army's main general.
But now it seemed.
They had ultimately arrived late.
This military merit had still been snatched away by Zhu Ying, and this mansion had already been conquered by Zhu Ying.
"Still late."
"I wonder what the situation is with that Man Man Jier."
"Was he captured by Zhu Ying?"
Zhao Yong stared at the mansion, a sense of unwillingness emerging in his eyes.
"Man Man Jier is a Northern Yuan Prince; although their Northern Yuan people have blood, they shouldn't fight to the death, right?"
"He should have fled," Wang Bi also said.
For them at this moment.
They wished Man Man Jier had fled the city like those routed troops, rather than being captured or killed by Zhu Ying.
