In order to thank my friend Xiaozi/Wen, I specially wrote this chapter at night. At the same time, I would also like to thank other friends for their support. Thank you!

The first group to arrive at Shengjing was 2,000 Jiannu cavalry. Facing the completely looted Shengjing, the Jiannu people were still puzzled as to when the Ming army, which only cared about escaping, could become so powerful and even learned their looting techniques. However, the Jiannu people did not have much time to think about the problem. After seeing that there were no Ming army left in the city, they all devoted themselves to the work of putting out the fire.
When Tang Qi and his men left, they casually set a few fires in Shengjing City. The weather was dry at that time, and the fires burned quite big when they were lit. When the Jiannu people arrived, eighty percent of Shengjing City had been burned.
The second and third batches of Jiannu cavalry that arrived later were all involved in the work of rescuing Shengjing City. For a while, no one had the time to cause trouble for Tang Yu. On the other hand, dozens of fast horses were sent to inform Huang Taiji.
Then several reinforcements arrived, all of them were Han people who had become traitors. It is understandable that these traitors were shocked to see that Shengjing had been completely looted overnight. Why did these traitors become traitors? It was because they thought that the Jiannu people were powerful and could be their backers. Now when they found out that the backers they thought were so powerful were actually unreliable, these traitors became somewhat more cautious.
The brothers Tong Yangzheng and Tong Yangxing were originally businessmen. They defected to Nurhaci because they saw how powerful the Jiannu people were. In recent years, seeing that the Ming Dynasty was repeatedly defeated in the wars between the Ming Dynasty and the Jiannu people, they became more convinced of their original vision. The two brothers were always proud of this and worked wholeheartedly for the Jiannu people.
This time, Huang Taiji trusted the Tong Yangzheng brothers because of their status as old traitors. Therefore, after Huang Taiji led his troops to the battle, he did not take the two brothers with him. Instead, he let them lead the troops in a military settlement not far from Shengjing. On the one hand, it was to protect the capital of the Jiannu people, and on the other hand, it was to intimidate some Jiannu people with ulterior motives who remained in Shengjing. When a messenger came with a fast horse to report that Shengjing had been captured by the Ming people, the Tong brothers were scared half to death.
Most of the Tong family's relatives were in Shengjing, but Tang Qie's policy was to allow the Jiannu to surrender but not traitors. When the two rushed to their home, they found that not only had all their things been looted, but almost all the male relatives had been killed. Only some elderly women were left crying in their homes, and even the young women and their baby girls had been taken away.
When the Tong Yangzheng brothers saw this situation, they felt dizzy. After they woke up, they took their 3,000 men to seek revenge on Tang Yu and others. At this time, more than 10,000 reinforcements of various kinds and nearly 20,000 slaves had arrived in Shengjing City, and the fire in the city was also under control. When those people saw that the Tong brothers wanted to chase the invading enemies, they also joined in. At this extraordinary moment, if anyone dared to retreat, given Huang Taiji's personality, he would definitely punish and execute them in the future.
Tang Qi was sitting on a higher place at the rear of the position, holding Bumbutai in his arms, and looking at the aggressive Jiannu army with a smile on his face. However, Bumbutai did not look at the incoming Jiannu army, but looked at Tang Qi who was holding her with some curiosity. Although Tang Qi's appearance was a little fierce, in Bumbutai's eyes, he was very heroic. Of course, Huang Taiji was also very heroic in Bumbutai's eyes, but the two people's temperaments were completely different.
Huang Taiji was an emperor among barbarians, but he did not have the cheerfulness of a barbarian. Instead, he had a heavy cold aura. When Bumbutai was with him, she always felt uneasy. However, Tang Qi had a so-called human justice in his heart and lacked the calculations of a politician. Therefore, he gave people the feeling of being full of righteousness. He had the kind of cheerful and gentle temperament. With Bumbutai's intelligence and sensitivity, she did not feel uneasy at all when sitting in Tang Qi's arms.
Tang Qi hugged Bumbutai and watched the battle, not because of his lustful thoughts, but to undermine Bumbutai's confidence in the Jiannu people and let her see clearly how powerful his Tang army was. Tang Qi knew that for people on the grass, they did not have too many racial concepts, but they would obey whoever was stronger. Otherwise, these Mongols would not have been so obedient to join the Jiannu people and become their sharpest minions.
Seeing Bumbutai leaning docilely in his arms, Tang Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thinking that this woman was worthy of the role of marrying her uncle as a sister-in-law. It was obvious that she didn't take the humiliation in front of her seriously. He patted Bumbutai's buttocks lightly and said, "Why, Dayu'er, Huang Taiji's men are here to rescue you, don't you want to take a look?"
"How do you know my name is Dayuer?" Bumbutai did not answer Tang Qi's question. If it really came to IQ, Tang Qi was not her opponent. It was just that Tang Qi had hundreds of years more knowledge and experience than her, which could not be compared with IQ. But in terms of language confrontation, few people in this era could match Bumbutai's wit.
"Of course. How could I not find out about a beauty like you?" Although Tang Yu's words sounded a bit frivolous, that was only what the Han people would see it as. To a girl of humble origins like Dayu'er Bumbutai, such praise was not frivolous at all. With Dayu'er Bumbutai's intelligence and insight, she knew that although Lord Tang of the Ming Dynasty had normal man's desires, he did not show any lust for her like other men did.
Dayuer didn't understand why Tang Qi treated her differently from other women who were captured like him. If she said it was because of her beauty, Dayuer would never believe it, because Tang Qi's clear eyes told her that Tang Qi didn't care about her appearance at all. However, Dayuer knew very well that Tang Qi had no intention of killing her, and there was even a hint of appreciation in his eyes. It was not the kind of appreciation a man has for a woman, but the kind of appreciation a hero has for a talented person.
Dayuer knew that Tang Qi's current identity was a general of the Ming Dynasty, but Dayuer had no intention of despising General Tang. Just based on the fact that Tang Qi used thousands of people to break through the high and thick walls of Shengjing in less than half an hour, Dayuer knew that General Tang was not a simple person.
"Lord Tang, you are joking. I am a pretty girl, how can I compare with the girls from Jiangnan. But I have some secrets. Can you tell me how you conquered Shengjing?" Dayuer's breath was as sweet as orchid, and she seduced Tang Lu in a subtle way. Dayuer and her sister Hailanzhu were rare beauties among the Mongolians. Their beauty might not be as good as Chen Yuanyuan, but they were not inferior to Liu Rushi and others. Later, Hong Chengchou thought of his beautiful wife and concubines at home after seeing Dayuer's beauty, and thus made up his mind to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
"Don't be anxious. See these people in front of you. If you want to know the answer, then just hope in your heart that these people will attack sooner, and you will have a satisfactory answer." Tang Qi smiled and looked at Dayuer's coquettish look, but he was not affected at all. He knew that the women on the grassland were different from Han women. Dayuer's behavior was considered as being available to anyone in the eyes of the Han people, but in the eyes of the people on the grassland, this was taken for granted. On the grassland, women were men's property. Now that Tang Qi had snatched her into his hands, she was Tang Qi's property, and it was natural for Tang Qi to enjoy her. No woman on the grassland would think there was anything wrong with this.
Dayuer could see that Tang Xi was a person with a strong will. Although it did not affect Tang Xi's mentality, Dayuer was not unhappy at all, because Dayuer was also a person with a strong will. As Tang Xi spoke, Dayuer turned her head and looked at the gathered Jiannu people in front of her.
At this time, the Jiannu people had already organized their troops and were ready to attack Tang Qi and his men. Although these Jiannu people already knew that the firearms of the Ming army were powerful, they now had nearly 30,000 people, while Tang Qi's army listed on the surface had only about 1,000 people. Therefore, these Jiannu people believed that no matter how powerful the firearms were, they could not withstand the attack of so many people.
When these Jiannu people drove the Han slaves to attack in the front, Huang Taiji also received urgent intelligence from Ba Bai. When he saw that Shengjing was captured by the Ming army overnight, Huang Taiji felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and a hot feeling in his heart surged out of his throat.
