Killing people and getting meat is only a matter of these few days, and the time required to make bacon is far from enough. However, the corpses brought back by the vassal soldiers have undergone basic processing, and many have begun to be pickled. Specifically, this

No one could be sure whether the piece of meat belonged to the scholar. So Chen Kai insisted that it belonged to him, and there was nothing wrong with it, just because compared to other ordinary people, he was a scholar with a good reputation, even if he was killed

Yes, it will be recorded in the county annals. These gentry and wealthy households have also seen this person with their own eyes. They have interacted with him in the past, and he has stood in front of them alive, which is far more shocking than any other person.

The mystery was revealed. In the lobby of the county government, there was complete silence. Even the people in the courtyard outside the lobby seemed to feel the silence inside and quickly fell silent.

You could hear a needle drop here, and everyone held their breath for fear of smelling the stench. However, before a moment, Jin Weixin, the head of Li Dingguo's staff, felt a wave of nausea welling up in his throat and vomited directly on the table.

I couldn't even cover it with my hands.

After spitting it out, Jin Weixin quickly fell to the ground in the direction of Li Dingguo. However, before he could finish his apology of "Student is rude", a chain reaction broke out instantly, and people in the lobby were immediately vomited, leaving Chen Kai before he came.

What they put in their mouths and what they drank poured out.

Here, only Chen Kai was like Cai Cai, as if he was not in the same world as these people. He was so calm and composed, not because he didn't feel sick, but because he was already sick enough on the road, even if he knew it many years ago

During this period of history, I have heard about this tragedy, but when I saw it with my own eyes, it was still difficult to contain it.

On the way, Chen Kai couldn't help but recall that April seven years ago. He was naked and looked at the naked, headless corpses in Niujia Village with fear. This was an era where cannibalism was blatant and without any cover-up.

The cruelty seen with one's own eyes is completely different from what is seen across the screen and in books.

At this moment, even the locals of Xinhui, who had been under siege for several months, could not suppress this disgusting feeling. On the contrary, the reaction of Li Dingguo and the northern generals under his command was much smaller - not them.

Just like those vassal soldiers, they were blind and blind to the extent that they did not distinguish between humans and animals. In fact, they had seen too many things during the chaos in the Northland in those years, and they were already a little numb.

"You feel disgusted because you still have a human conscience deep in your heart. Unfortunately, those vassal soldiers do not have it. They plunder food and grass and put it in the warehouse to raise rats. Not only that, but they also kill people to get it.

Meat to make bacon, these slaves just want to defend the city for their master, and for this reason they are willing to starve to death of a whole city of people. The ancients said that leading beasts to eat people, this is probably what they meant."

The guard stood there with a low eyebrow, holding the tray with both hands, and clearly placed the piece of bacon in front of everyone's eyes, without any cover-up, and without any need for cover-up.

Everyone present had tried to avoid that thing as much as possible, but the disgusting feeling that came from the bottom of their hearts could not be ignored without looking at it, and it would inevitably affect them continuously.

After misinterpreting, or interpreting the meaning of leading beasts and cannibals literally, Chen Kai changed the topic, raised his hands and said to Li Dingguo: "When the city was breached, I once asked Your Highness how to deal with it.

The matter of capturing the army had not yet been decided at that time. Now, all the gentry and wise men of this county are gathered here. I think it is better to leave the decision-making power to them. What does Your Highness think?"

As soon as the words came out, everyone present was stunned. For a moment, they couldn't even care about the disgusting feeling. All eyes instantly focused on Chen Kai.

"this……"

Li Dingguo seemed a little unable to understand, but before anyone else could react, Lian Chengbi immediately raised his palms and praised: "Chen Fujun's words are very kind!"

Lianchengbi's reaction immediately stunned the generals and staff of the Ming army. You must know that not long ago, when Chen Kai first arrived, he and Guo Zhiqi and Lianchengbi were at loggerheads. Later, Guo Zhiqi temporarily avoided the confrontation, and Chen Kai

There is no stalking, but the conflict between the Western Guangdong Civil Service Group and the Zheng Group has been clearly laid out in front of everyone.

However, both sides just wanted to avoid further internal fighting for Li Dingguo's sake. At this time, Lian Chengbi even praised Chen Kai's method, which was beyond their understanding of party struggle.

Next, Liancheng Bi analyzed the concept of "good and evil will be rewarded in the end", emphasizing that the Qing army committed evil in Xinhui, so it was reasonable to leave it to the locals to deal with it, speaking directly to the gentry and wealthy households.

We have reached the point where we can only swallow the "inconvenience is too much trouble" on our lips.

"Lian Zhijun is worthy of the name of Jinxi Talent. I admire this understanding of retribution very much." Lian Chengbi offered to help, and Chen Kai also praised him quickly. The two sang and harmonized, and directly praised the new ones.

There was a tight blockade among the wise men. At this time, Chen Kai asked Li Dingguo again, and Li Dingguo had already reacted. There was no better idea than praising Chen Kai.

The three high-ranking officials present had already set the tone. Chen Kai directly stated the rules without asking the local gentry and wealthy households in Xinhui if they were happy: "Each person has a piece of paper, and on the paper is written their respective

We will vote to decide on the names and methods of dealing with those Tatars. Whichever method has more votes, we will use that method. Fair and just, how about that?"

It is said that it is a vote, and individuals have the right to decide, but the local gentry and wealthy people present all have bitter faces. They say it is up to them how to deal with it, but in fact no one dares to write words like release. At this time

, whoever dares to sit on the fence is the enemy of the Ming Army. This is not a vote at all, it is Chen Kai who wants them to vote for the Ming Army!

Chen Kai brazenly claimed to be fair and just, and Chen Kai's shamelessness really refreshed their understanding of this prestigious and capable minister. Among the people, as the county's elected official, Mo Zhilian looked at Li Dingguo, Liancheng Bi, and then

Looking at Chen Kai, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, then rolled his eyes and stood up immediately.

"Chen Fujun's method is very good. It is in compliance with, well, it is in compliance with the ancient saying of the sage that there is no distinction between teachings."

For most of her life, Mo Zhilian had never heard of the saying that losing character would increase the winning rate. However, Li Dingguo became king twice, and Chen Kai also played the two vassals around in Guangdong. They are both the most ruthless characters in the world. This is

At that time, since people were forcing him to take sides, he had no choice but to stand up and take a gamble. What's more, from his own heart, after this siege, he also saw with his own eyes the inadequacy of the Qing army.

It is inhumane. Now that the Ming army entered the city, they did not carry out massacres, but even opened a porridge factory. No matter what, it seems that the Ming army is more likely to treat them well.

After talking nonsense for a while, Mo Zhilian applauded Chen Kai's decision. Chen Kai saw this attitude and couldn't help but smile.

"Well, I think it's better to decide whether to kill or not to kill and set the tone first. It's relatively simple."

"Chen Fujun's words make sense."

"Chen Fujun's words are very kind and speak to our hearts."

With the example set, even more voices emerged. Next, the voting went smoothly. Everyone followed Chen Kai's method and wrote down their names on paper, and clearly stated their opinions on whether to kill or not to kill.

, then folded it in half and handed it to the guard's tray.

"Then let's start counting votes."

Chen Kai swaggered and sat down on his seat. Jin Weixin understood and took advantage of the time to wipe off the vomit on his beard. He bowed to Li Dingguo, Lian Chengbi and Chen Kai, then walked to the guard and stretched out his hand.

He picked up a ticket and shouted loudly: "Kill Mo Zhilian, the most popular person in this county!"

As he said that, Jin Weixin raised his vote and showed it to everyone. Since there were also gentry and wealthy households in the county attending the meeting outside the lobby, they had also voted, so Jin Weixin looked around in the lobby and handed the vote to

Gong Ming, Gong Ming will take the ticket and announce it outside.

"Li Lingchang, a tribute student from this county, kill him!"

Another vote, and another announcement to everyone. Next, the votes cast by the participants in the county were read out one by one. Some directly said "kill", while others used words such as "execute" or "kill".

Vocabulary. After struggling for a long time, after the announcement was completed, the opinions of the local gentry and wealthy households in Xinhui were still very unified. They all wanted to execute the Qing soldiers, and none of them even proposed to leave a way for the Qing soldiers to survive.

"Very good. I am indeed right about you. You are all loyal men who are at odds with the Tatars."

Why did the loyal people not stand up to fight when the Qing army defended the city? Why did the Ming and Qing dynasties fight for Guangdong for so many years but did not organize the people to resist the Qing like Zhang Jiayu, Chen Zizhuang, Chen Bangyan and others. But since Chen Kai said this, everyone naturally

That’s how I agreed, who bothered with the details and who has the same name as that Japanese celebrity - lack of heart and mind.

"The killing has been decided. I have an idea about the specific method, and I would like to discuss it with you in detail."

………………

After the county government's celebration banquet decided the fate of the Qing army, it came to an end not long after. The three of them divided their work. Li Dingguo returned to the town camp, Chen Kai took charge of the Beida camp in the city, and Lian Chengbi moved in directly.

He moved to the back house of the county government office.

When he returned to the bedroom first, Lian Chengbi was still laughing about what had just happened. He had heard that Chen Kai had many tricks, but he didn't expect that there were so many tricks. However, with this move, the wealthy gentry and wealthy people in Xinhui

Even if you are tied to a skipping rope with the Ming army, even if you are just afraid of being retaliated by the Qing army, you still have to use some strength to support the Ming army.

Thinking about it carefully, the method of voting is still registered voting, which is really a dirty trick. But there is also one thing that makes him unhappy, that is, he has to cooperate with Chen Kai, but there is no way. It is all Li Dingguo's politics.

The IQ is too low and the reaction is too slow. Even Jin Weixin and Gong Ming's staff are not qualified. If it weren't for the fear that the Xinhui gentry would jump out and sing the opposite and attract everyone's approval, it would be difficult to continue. There would be no need for him to speak out.

Help.

"At the celebration banquet, everyone was shown human meat and bacon. Damn he figured it out!"

It was really inappropriate to say this while eating. Of course, it might be too appropriate. As Lian Chengbi thought about it, the piece of bacon originating from Lu Ao, a member of the new society, appeared in his mind again.

中. Immediately afterwards, there was another round of tumbling in the stomach. Lian Chengbi quickly called the book boy, then plunged into the basin held by the book boy, and vomited the acid water.

Tonight, Chen Kai will inevitably become the subject of repeated mention by the wealthy gentry and generals of the Ming Dynasty who are attending the meeting. But he, who has gone through all the ups and downs, has long been unfazed by favors and humiliations. Sitting in a sedan chair here, he did not even sneeze.

desire.

"I haven't even cut the human bacon into pieces and put it in their mouths. It's already interesting enough. Anyone who dares to say that I'm not is being heartless."

With a slight snort, Chen Kai looked indifferent. Psychological reactions, supplemented by physiological reactions, can only be remembered more deeply. As for the delicacies that were spoiled, they can be ignored.

"Bye bye, donuts, pearl milk tea instant noodles, hot pot rice and chicken, you're welcome to take them away."

"Bye bye caffeine, quit cola, quit fat, take out meals on the sofa and play games, don't stay up late to hurt your body anymore."

"Come on, back twists, hot yoga sit-ups, spinning Pilates, and soaking wolfberry in a thermos cup."

"Come on, take a deep breath, run in the morning and swim a few meters at night, use the flat dumbbell rowing machine, and don't give up until you reach your goal!"

His right hand was beating briskly on his left hand, and Chen Kai was humming a tune that did not belong to this era. The corners of his eyes were raised, and he almost wanted to scream.

………………

Returning to the camp in the north of the city, Chen Kai inspected the prisoners in custody, especially the Xinhui garrison commander You Yunlong, who was beaten to a bloody head by rubble and tiles. He took a few more glances and saw that

This Qing commander who had followed Shang Kexi for many years had goosebumps all over his body.

On the next day, the auxiliary troops of the Ming army dismantled the siege towers and charging vehicles, and built an execution platform on the former battlefield in the north of Xinhui City, together with a simple camp that could temporarily detain the Qing troops.

Notices of the executions of the Qing troops had already been posted. The people of Xinhui had suffered a lot during the siege of the city for more than half a year. Once they got the news, when the execution time came the next day, they would be expected to leave the city empty.

In the notice, it is natural to show the merits of the gentry and wealthy households in the city. Chen Kai specifically mentioned in the notice that it was the sages of the county who urged Li Dingguo to execute these captured Qing soldiers so that the people could

Being able to remember this kindness of revenge is also a kind act.

The prisoners of the Qing army were classified, and Chen Kai divided them into five types: vassal officers, vassal soldiers, green camp officers, green camp soldiers and auxiliary soldiers. The auxiliary soldiers were whipped in public, while the green camp soldiers were beaten with boards and then sent to Changhua, Qiongzhou.

To work as coolies in the mines, these are all carried out in the camp in the north of the city, and this is where the first three are processed.

When it was time for the execution, there was already a sea of ​​people nearby, with more than 20,000 or 30,000 people. During the siege of the city for more than half a year, there was no one in the city who did not starve to death, or one whose wives and daughters were kidnapped and raped in the women's camp.
To be continued...
