Zhu Yiyuan came to the battlefield surrounded by soldiers.
At this time, Liu Sheng's body had been put down and was lying quietly on the ground. At a glance, not only was there no good piece of meat on his body, but even his bones were broken into pieces. His fingers, toes, and left forearm all disappeared... Just look here
, Zhu Yiyuan quickly turned his head, and after a while, he had the courage to face the corpse.
It is really unimaginable how much torture this teenage boy suffered before his death?
Zhu Yiyuan gritted his teeth silently and said in a low voice: "Have you checked clearly?"
At this time, Tan Deyu took a step forward and whispered: "We captured a personal guard of Liu Zhiqian. According to his confession, after they captured Liu Sheng, they forced him to tell the tunnel entrance and where the villagers were hiding. Liu Sheng
If Sheng didn't say anything, they tortured him severely. After falling into coma several times, Liu Sheng once asked for a steamed bun."
"Steamed bun?"
"Well, Qing Gou gave it to him, but Liu Sheng only took a small bite and threw it aside, saying that the steamed bun was unclean. He also said that his family could eat clean steamed buns every day, which made him relieved. Then Qing Gou became furious.
He was beaten to death and his body was hung on the flagpole..."
When Tan Deyu spoke, his fists were clenched and his teeth were clenching. The children in the same village watched as they grew up. Before going to Laiwu, they were jumping for joy, but when they came back, only a broken corpse was left.
"Zhu Qianshi, this child has a hard life. I'm afraid he will die without eating flour made from new wheat or steamed buns!"
Zhu Yiyuan was startled at first, then squatted down silently, staring at Liu Sheng's body, tears rolling down silently... It was not that he had never seen life and death, but at this moment, it seemed as if something was welling up from his heart.
Close your eyes and roll down.
This teenage boy doesn't want a bright future, a prestigious university, a house, a car or money... His biggest wish is nothing more than steamed buns that future generations will almost dismiss.
Things that are ordinary and extraordinary are things he never got until his death.
The difference between the two eras is right in front of our eyes.
"I wish you could go to my previous life, where there were not only steamed buns, but also steamed buns, dumplings, hamburgers, happy water... Whatever you want, you can have it. You can eat it until you don't like it, or you can't eat it anymore."
Zhu Yiyuan silently blessed him in his heart, but he also had another thought, which came to him crazily. What can he do in this world?
Raise an army of soldiers and horses to fight against the Qing army and save China...or let these poor people eat white flour steamed buns every meal, no longer hungry, not cold, and not suffering from the war.
At least Liu Sheng believed in Zhu Yiyuan's promise and believed that by following Zhu Yiyuan, he would be able to gain freedom.
So he would rather die than tell the real situation. If he dies, his family will survive. His mother, brothers and sisters will be able to enjoy steamed buns one day in the future. He died willingly and with a smile on his face.
"You trusted me with your life, how should I repay you?"
Zhu Yiyuan sighed deeply in his heart. When he slowly stood up, he saw that there were already many rebel soldiers behind him, and everyone was looking at Zhu Yiyuan.
"Have you caught Liu Zhiqian?" Zhu Yiyuan said in a slightly hoarse voice.
"I caught him. The brothers have beaten him to death. If we hadn't stopped him, he would have died long ago." Tan Deyu said angrily.
Zhu Yiyuan nodded, "Killing him now will give him an advantage... Where are the others?"
"Zheng Longfang was also captured. He still resisted and his right arm was cut off. This time, more than 2,000 Qing troops were killed and more than 1,000 prisoners were killed. The remaining soldiers fled in embarrassment."
After Zhu Yiyuan heard this, he said in a deep voice: "Select among the prisoners. All the cronies of Liu Zhiqian and others who participated in the beating of Liu Sheng will be captured. I will not accept their surrender!"
If you don't accept surrender, then there is only death!
They had to die for Liu Sheng, and there was nothing negotiable.
"It's time. Since we started the army, some accounts must be settled clearly."
Zhu Yiyuan said these powerful words to all the soldiers.
Three days later, in Dawen Village, Laiwu County, the former Confucius Temple, after several days of intense reconstruction, had been transformed into a shrine to martyrs.
Although it is a little crude, it is the best that can be done at the moment.
Since Zhu Yiyuan raised his troops, except for the elimination of a group of wealthy gentry and merchants who had defected to the Qing court after entering Zichuan, no large-scale liquidation has been carried out.
Right in front of the Martyrs' Shrine, Zhu Yiyuan summoned everyone and dragged those damned people over one by one.
First of all, Ma Degong, the commander-in-chief of the Ming Dynasty, captured Emperor Hongguang and presented it to the Qing court.
According to the original history, Ma Degong would follow the Qing court and kill rebels everywhere. After more than ten years, he was killed by Zheng Chenggong.
Now his death date has come early.
"As a famous general, I unfortunately fell into the hands of unknown people. The sky has no eyes, the sky has no eyes!" Ma Degong raised his head and roared at the top of his lungs.
Zhu Yiyuan just smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to sigh for the success of the horse. It won't be long before the Qing court is destroyed. Everyone present will be famous in history. They are much more famous than you, a traitor and traitor."
After saying this, Zhu Yiyuan said loudly to the soldiers and fellow villagers: "This beast led the Qing troops to attack Laiwu. He acted as a pawn of the Qing court and killed the people. He should be executed for his crime!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The people roared like a tide, shaking the earth and the earth. Everyone wanted to kill the horse to gain the victory.
"Do it!"
When Zhu Yiyuan uttered two words decisively, someone had already dragged Ma Degong down, slashed him with a knife, and his head rolled off.
Then someone hung his head on the flagpole in front of the Martyrs' Shrine.
This beast who shamelessly surrendered to the Qing Dynasty got the end he deserved.
"Take the servants of the Kong family with you!"
Everyone was startled, and then they remembered that the rebel army had just entered Laiwu and defeated a group of Confucian servants, and then wiped out hundreds of Confucian servants outside Xintai City. After getting rid of the dead, there were naturally dozens of prisoners left.
.
"As minions of the Confucian government, you have harmed countless people over the years. Your sins are so serious that heaven and earth cannot tolerate...killing!"
This is not one person, but nearly fifty people.
Zhu Yiyuan didn't hesitate at all. They were not qualified enough to hang their heads on the flagpole, so they were all beheaded.
Then it was the turn of the prisoners this time, Liu Zhiqian, Zheng Longfang, and their trusted servants, totaling more than 300 people.
In a large area of darkness, Liu Zhiqian's face was pale and his whole body was trembling slightly. Zheng Longfang was even more frightened and wanted to beg for mercy, but in the face of countless angry eyes, he couldn't say anything no matter what.
Being pushed in front of Zhu Yiyuan, Liu Zhiqian swallowed and said bravely: "I am an official of the imperial court. Who among you thieves dares to kill me?"
Who dares to kill you?
No one dares to kill you!
"Qian Shi, don't talk nonsense with him, kill him quickly and avenge Liu Sheng."
Zhu Yiyuan chuckled, "Isn't it too cheap to chop him down? He beat Liu Sheng until Liu Sheng didn't have a good piece of meat. We might as well be generous and peel off his skin, peel off the last straw, and hang it in front of the Heroes' Shrine."
Hearing this, the villagers cheered, and a burly guy squeezed out and said excitedly: "Hey, let me come. I have killed pigs before, and I am very good at it!"
Zhu Yiyuan nodded with a smile, "Liu Zhigan peeled off the lasts, Zheng Longfang was cut in half, and none of the other close servants were spared! Anyone who attacks us will have to pay the price."
"kill!"
Following Zhu Yiyuan's order, heads rolled down one after another. Gradually, the smell of blood filled the air, and the blood dyed the earth red...
Zhu Yiyuan walked slowly in front of everyone and praised in a low voice: "Folks, Liu Sheng's tragic death tells us that the enemy will not show mercy to us. They will only use the most cruel means to kill us and force us to surrender!"
"We killed three Qing court generals today and used their lives to tell the Qing court that we will never surrender!" Zhu Yiyuan said sternly: "Folks, are you ready to fight the Qing court to the end?"
"Ready, ready!"
The soldiers and civilians present immediately shouted loudly and responded enthusiastically, and the crowd was excited.
Zhu Yiyuan nodded, "Very good, next we have to complete the land equalization as soon as possible, and at the same time, select three elders in each village. We have to manage everyone and gather every ounce of strength to fight and win.
