After seeing Lin Asan agree, Zhu Youdong walked to the people of the Han Eight Banners again: "You were unwilling to accept the conditions just now, and you still wanted to be a dog for the Manchurian Tartars." Zhu Youdong said to the Fuming Army beside him: "Pull out those who just shouted so much and don't want to be people." ”

Immediately those people were pulled out, more than 500 people in all, and these people were pulled aside, and they didn't know what would happen. Then the rest of the people were also given weapons and told to go up and kill a soldier with a red flag, and those who did not want to be killed by the soldier with a red flag in turn.

There were still those who were reluctant to do it before, but now under the threat of death, in the end, more than 300 people killed their former masters and chose to survive. In the end, there were only 500 people left who would rather die than be slaves for the Manchurians, and Zhu Youdong asked all the remaining red-flag people to be tied to the pillar. Then he said to those who were willing to be slaves to the Manchurians: "Although you don't want to do anything to your master, I still want to give you a chance to live." ”

Then Zhu Youdong pointed to the people who were helped with the red flag: "Did you see them?" Now if you go up and slash them alive, you will live. These people from the Han Army Banner suddenly looked at Zhu Youdong in horror, and then they cried and cursed Zhu Youdong, and no one was willing to step forward.

Zhu Youdong asked them to be escorted up, and the two of them faced a soldier with a red flag. Many of the soldiers with red flags who were tied up were so frightened that they peed their pants on the spot, and a strong smell of urine permeated the stage. Looking at the appearance of the red flag-inlaid nest, Ba Sihan roared angrily: "You unproductive bastards, the big deal is death, what are you afraid of." Stand up straight for me, don't lose the spirit of our Manchurian men. ”

Zhu Youdong clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay, that's good." Then he walked up to the red flag crowd who had already completed the conditions, and said, "I know that there are some officers among you, and you think you can hide from me like this?" Now that you have fulfilled the conditions, I will also give you a way to live, as long as you stand up for yourselves and see those who are unwilling to step forward? Kill them alive, and I will accept you even if you are officers. ”

After listening to Zhu Youdong's words, there were some people who were originally military officers, who had completed the conditions in the crowd and had now been detained alone, shouted: "I repent, I am Niu Lu Zhangjing, and I am willing to accept the general's conditions." ”

Zhu Youdong saw that someone was willing to come out, and immediately said: "Okay, now you go over, and see those who don't want to do it directly." As soon as Zhu Youdong finished speaking, those Niu Lu Zhangjing with red flags walked towards the execution ground one after another.

The soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, who were reluctant to do it before, now see that the master of the red flag actually came to kill himself with a knife, it would be better if he just killed with a knife, Zhu Youdong was said to be alive. Suddenly, many people from the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty turned around and knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and said, "Master, you spare the minions, the minions don't dare to do anything with you." ”

The soldiers with red flags said: "You are not our minions now, we are preparing Han people, and we are killing you traitors who surrender to foreign Tartars." "In this way, the person who kneels and wants to be a slave is a Han person, and the master who is constantly begged for help wants to be a prepared Han person.

Looking at the scene of the execution ground, the soldiers who had been watching the execution were full of sadness, and they were also thinking that the Manchurians were not afraid of death, and they were no better than the Han when they were threatened with death. For a while, the fear of the Manchurians was suddenly much less, which was also the purpose of Zhu Youdong's abnormal trial, not to break the psychological barriers of these surrendered soldiers.

Even if Zhu Youdong reorganized these troops into the Restoration Army, it would not be of great use, and they would always feel that the Eight Banners of Manchuria were invincible. This is very unfavorable to Zhu Youdong's later development, so Zhu Youdong can only go back on the people who are inlaid with the red flag, and Zhu Youdong never thought about it at the beginning, and he wants to leave all the people who are only inlaid with the red flag.

At this time, there was a red flag inlaid Niu Lu Zhangjing, looking at the Han Eight Banner banner soldiers who were constantly begging in front of him, and this person was indeed his own minion, and immediately took advantage of the fact that the guarding Restoration Army was not paying attention, and directly killed the person of the Han Army Banner with a knife, and then shouted: "General, this person is dead, I accidentally killed him at once." ”

Hearing his words, the eyes of many officers with red flags suddenly lit up, and those people from the Eight Banners of Han also looked at the Manchurian master in front of them eagerly. Immediately, several people followed suit according to the law, and more than 30 people from the Han Eight Banners were killed in an instant.

Zhu Youdong saw that this was simply deliberate, and immediately said to a red-flag-inlaid soldier next to him who was tied to a pillar: "Have you seen it?" Did he kill by accident or on purpose? The red flag soldier who was tied up saw Zhu Youdong coming to ask, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Zhu Youdong saw that he didn't answer, so he was about to walk to the second person. When the man saw that Zhu Youdong was leaving, he said in a ghostly manner: "General, I saw that he killed on purpose, and he did it on purpose." Zhu Youdong stopped and asked the man, "You can see clearly, he killed on purpose?" ”

At this time, the soldier was like a drowning man grasping a life-saving straw, whether he could die or not, but he would never let go. Immediately said: "General Hui, I saw it, he did it on purpose, it was true." "It's almost shouted out at the back.

When Zhu Youdong heard this, he turned his head to look at Niu Lu Zhangjing, who had killed just now, and said: "It seems that you are very righteous, you are a man, and what I Zhu Youdong admires most is a person who stresses righteousness." Then he found the soldiers of the Fuming Army next to him and said: "Since he is so righteous, save the soldiers tied to the pillar in front of him." ”

Niu Lu Zhangjing, who had just ventured to kill someone, was overjoyed when he heard this: "More generals, I won't be able to repay your kindness even if I am a cow or a horse in the future." Zhu Youdong said: "You don't have to be a cow or a horse." You saved a soldier with a red flag, this is a life. ”

At this time, when the other people with red flags heard this, they all directly killed the people of the Han Eight Banners in front of them with their knives. Zhu Youdong glanced at it and didn't speak, and waited for them to kill all the people before saying: "Since you saved their lives, they can live, but this saving people has to be reciprocal, you saved their lives, you have to give me back my life." ”

The red-flag-inlaid generals standing on the execution ground all nodded and said, "Yes, it should be." But then I thought, how can I still give back my life, how can I pay it back? Everyone was stunned for a while.

Zhu Youdong said: "You are so righteous, I think you will use your lives to pay back." After speaking, with a wave of his hand, he asked the soldiers of the Restoration Army to tie all these generals with red flags to the pillars. At this time, these people reacted that they wanted to let themselves pay for their lives, and immediately begged loudly for mercy.

But Zhu Youdong was unmoved, and said sharply to the red-flag-inlaid soldiers who had just been put down, and the red-inlaid soldiers who had been held alone: "I tell you, don't think about playing any tricks in front of me, I didn't let you go, if anyone dares to move their thoughts, otherwise he will die a miserable death." ”

Now these soldiers with red flags were suddenly frightened and didn't dare to squeak, and they all squatted there in fear. Zhu Youdong then looked at the red-flag-inlaid soldier Ding who had just been put down and said: "I put you down, now as long as you go up and cut the tied people alive, I will let you live." ”

Hearing Zhu Youdong's words, with what happened just now, these soldiers with red flags dared to hesitate, and immediately went up and took off the clothes of those who were tied, and then began to cut the flesh on their bodies one by one with knives. Those generals with red flags could still scold Zhu Youdong at first, but after a few clicks, only wailing and begging for mercy remained.

Zhu Youdong ignored it and said loudly: "If any of you dare to kill people casually now, they will be your fate." Hearing this, those red-flag soldiers who moved their hands suddenly became more careful, and they didn't even dare to cut the meat too fast or too big. In this way, it can really make those who are tortured extremely painful, and they can be cut off with a single knife. Now these soldiers with red flags have been cut off little by little. I hurt these people and cried for my father and mother's begging for mercy, but Zhu Youdong just didn't let go.

Listening to the painful wails of these people, Ba Sihan's heart was also like a knife, and he said with tears: "God, please save these poor Manchurian children, your emperor, the old minister is sorry for you." ”

The soldiers with red flags present were also crying, very fortunate that they were not the ones who were tortured, nor were they the ones who tortured. Those who used their hands to torture were even more crying, but they did not dare to move too much. As the execution continued, everyone seemed to be numb and cries were not as loud as before.

The voice of the man who was still crying was hoarse. Ba Sihan looked at the execution ground with blank eyes, and he didn't know what he was talking about. The soldiers and people in the audience were all pale with fright, looking at Zhu Youdong like a murderer, as if Zhu Youdong would be at any time, and suddenly opened his mouth wide and swallowed himself.

At this time, suddenly a soldier was cutting the flesh on the neck of an officer with a knife, and he didn't know whether his feet were too slippery, or he was frightened and unsteady on his feet, so he threw himself out directly. The knife in his hand cut the carotid artery of the tied person at once, and the soldier got up and saw that the blood was already gushing from the neck of the tied person, and he saw that he would not survive.

The soldier got up and hurriedly pressed with both hands to try to plug the blood, but there was a blockage. After being tortured until now, the person who was tied up was already very weak, and now he directly came to a big bloodletting, and died directly after a few strokes.

At this time, the soldier was suddenly dumbfounded, looked at Zhu Youdong who came over, immediately knelt on the ground and didn't care about what was on the ground, just kept kowtowing, and said: "General, I didn't mean to, I accidentally fell, I didn't think about killing him directly." I beg the general to spare me. ”

Zhu Youdong stopped in front of the soldier and didn't speak, the soldier was still kowtowing, and he didn't know if it was blood on the ground, or if it had really broken his forehead, and it was already dripping with blood. Seeing that Zhu Youdong didn't speak, the soldier kept kowtowing and said: "General, I really didn't mean it, the general spared me, please general, I didn't mean it." ”

At this time, Ba Sihan, who was in the distance, saw this scene and begged Zhu Youdong: "General, spare him, if you want to resist your life, let me resist your life." I beg the general. After saying that, he struggled to his knees on the ground, and his whole body fell to the ground.

Zhu Youdong turned to look at Ba Sihan and said, "Heh, this is strange, what crime are you guilty of the mistake he made?" Ba Sihan said: "The general just wants to attack my invincible image of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, and directly make the old man confess, which has a greater effect." Zhu Youdong smiled when he heard this: "Is it? But not anymore. ”

Zhu Youdong walked up to the soldier and said, "What's your name?" The soldier said: "General Hui, the little one is called Dong Egeli" Zhu Youdong was stunned for a moment, as if Wang Qing's Manchurian name was Songgeli. Zhu Youdong continued: "Dong E? Does Shunzhi have a concubine named Concubine Dong E? What does it have to do with you? ”

Geli said: "General Hui, although we have the same surname, we have no relationship. Dong Efeiyangu is the elder brother of the imperial concubine. Zhu Youdong said: "Feiyangu? That's a familiar name. The tower next to him said: "Master Hou forgot, one of the Tartars we killed in Chongqing was named Fei Yanggu, I don't know if it's this person." ”

Zhu Youdong said: "Don't talk about this, you can't call your name now, you go and take a Chinese name yourself, but before that, you have to cut Ba Sihan." Now Ge Li still dared to object, and immediately said: "Yes, general, from today I am a Han Chinese, and my name is Ding Sihan." After speaking, he kowtowed to Zhu Youdong, then walked in front of Ba Sihan with a knife, and cut off Ba Sihan's head with a knife.

Seeing this, Zhu Youdong didn't say anything anymore, and said to Ding Sihan, who had just changed his name: "Okay, you hang Ba Sihan's head on the flagpole, and you will carry the big flag next to me in the future." Ding Sihan didn't dare to say anything now, and immediately said: "Thank you for the general's life, remember it." ”

Zhu Youdong saw that the effect he wanted had now been achieved, and immediately asked people to kill all the red-flag generals who were tied up. After Zhu Youdong's order was issued, all the people with red flags who were being executed sat on the ground, as if their souls had been withdrawn.
