Zhu Dashan was looking for Zhou Dazhu and said that he wanted to select elite soldiers to train firearms. Zhou Dazhu complained to Zhu Dashan: "Now there are still elite soldiers in these soldiers of ours, and God has blessed them if they can go to the battlefield without chaos." "If Zhu Dashan hadn't seen those gunpowder and muskets, it would have been fine, but now that he saw it and asked him to abandon it, where would Zhu Dashan listen.

The two immediately quarreled in the barracks, one wanted no people, and the other insisted on transferring people. Ma Yuanjie came in from outside the barracks, and saw that the two were arguing, so he hurriedly said: "I said two, one of you is the chief soldier, and the other is the general." I'm afraid it's not appropriate to make such a big noise in this barracks! So saying, he hurriedly pulled the two into the barracks.

When Zhu Dashan saw that Ma Yuanjie was coming, it was not good to quarrel with Zhou Dazhu again. Then Ma Yuanjie asked, "Aren't you searching for deserters in the city?" How did you get here? Ma Yuanjie said with a strange face: "Originally, we were searching for deserters in the city, but when we searched the south gate, we found that there were more than a dozen people still guarding these Manchurian soldiers and Qincha!" They didn't run either, so they let our people watch, and there was a man named Malegi who wanted to run, and he was honest after breaking his leg. ”

Zhu Dashan heard Ma Yuanjie say about the Manchurian soldiers and shouted: "How did I forget them, it's time to deal with them now." While urging Ma Yuanjie, he said: "Let's go, let's go now." "I wanted to walk outside the barracks. Ma Yuanjie saw Zhu Dashan going to the south gate and said, "They are not at the south gate now, I will let them take them to the government prison."

When Zhu Dashan heard this, he turned around and walked towards the prison again, and Ma Yuanjie hurriedly followed. When the two came to the prison, they found that the entire prison was overcrowded, and more than a dozen strong men who were escorting the cavalry of the Yellow Banner looked at the full prison and were worried, and saw Zhu Dashan and Ma Yuanjie walking in together.

Zhu Dashan was also surprised when he looked at the people in this prison, and only after some inquiry. It turned out that these people were all strong men sent by Gao Minzhan to the counties to prepare to transport the military funds in the treasury. Originally, they waited for the people from the south to send it over and start transporting grain, that is, Zhu Dashan and others. As a result, people came, but instead of sending them, they came in, and Gao Minzhan was also killed. There was chaos all night last night, and today they are still in the city to clear out deserters, so no one in this prison cares. If Ma Yuanjie hadn't asked people to send Qin Cha and the others to the prison, it is estimated that these people would have starved for two days.

Zhu Dashan made people count and found that there were more than 800 people, Zhu Dashan was very happy, and he was worried that no one trained firearms, and it was most suitable to pick someone among these people. Zhu Dashan hurriedly called someone to call Zhou Dazhu, but he dealt with the cavalry of the Yellow Banner in the prison himself.

Zhu Dashan walked to Songgeri and the house, the two looked at Zhu Dashan a little timidly, Zhu Dashan said: "I can give you a chance to live, but there is another condition" Songgeri said in a low voice: "What condition?" Zhu Dashan said: "I will only say it once, you can also listen to it." Zhu Dashan said the last sentence to the other cavalrymen of the Yellow Banner, and then said: "There are three Qincha in front of you, you know their identities, and you also know the background behind them. But today it doesn't matter, the important thing is that as long as you kill the three Qincha, you can live. ”

Ma Leji was originally dying and was supported by two people, but now he heard Zhu Dashan say that he let the cavalry of Zhenghuang Banner kill him to survive. Deng Shi said angrily: "Lowly Han dog, we are warriors of Manchuria, how can we live as lowly as you, and kill if you want." What is the rambling? Zhu Dashan looked at Maleji and said, "The Manchurians won't be afraid?" Are they not afraid of death? ”

Ma Leji said: "Of course, since Emperor Taizu raised troops with thirteen armors and seven hatreds, have you ever heard of the Manchurian warriors who surrendered, and you have seen Manchurian men who are afraid of death." Malegi was already unsteady on his feet, but as he spoke, he pushed the people who were holding him, and stood there straight. The other two Qincha also looked at Zhu Dashan proudly, their eyes full of disdain. The cavalrymen with the yellow flag couldn't help but raise their heads. Zhu Dashan sneered and said, "I really don't believe it, come here, drag him over." Zhu Dashan pointed to an old man.

Zhu Dashan gave an order, and immediately a Minzhuang stepped forward and pulled the old man in front of Zhu Dashan. Zhu Dashan took a knife from the guard behind him and said, "I'll see how unafraid of death and how hard the Manchurian warriors are today." Then he asked the old man to help him on the pillar of the prison, and casually ordered two cavalrymen with yellow flags and said: "Now it is up to the two of you to execute, I want you to chop him alive, remember that it is alive, if he dies first, you will die." After saying that, he shoved the sword into the hands of the two cavalrymen, both of whom were only seventeen or eighteen years old.

When the Qing soldiers entered the customs, the Qing soldiers had a total of 120,000 soldiers, and after the battles in the past few years, about 20,000 died, and nearly 10,000 were disabled and could not go to the battlefield, and the rest had to be stationed in Beijing and garrisoned in various places. Now the only people who can line up on the battlefield are the 10,000 Manchurian Eight Banners brought to Yunnan by Doni, the general of An Yuan Jingkou, and the others have more than 30,000 people from the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, this time, most of the Zhenghuang Banner cavalry sent by the Qincha to the south were recruits who had never been on the battlefield, and some of them were older and had seen a few bloody scenes. But the dozen or so people at the scene were on a business trip for the first time, and they were captured alive by Zhu Dashan and locked up for half a month. The arrogance has long been worn out.

Originally, he looked a little confident when he was told by Maleji, but now he asked them to take a knife to kill Qincha alive, but they didn't dare to do anything. The old man saw that Zhu Dashan let the Manchurians kill each other, and he still used such torture, and roared angrily: "If you want to kill, why use such despicable means, you have the ability to give me a knife, if I frown, I will not be Manchurian Lang Yin Tu." ”

Zhu Dashan was afraid that the two young cavalrymen would not be able to stand the excitement, and said: "If you dare to kill with one sword, I will kill you two alive." The two were also frightened by Zhu Dashan, and they really didn't dare to kill Yin Tu directly, and under the urging and intimidation of Zhu Dashan and the soldiers of the Fuming Battalion, they finally didn't dare to use the knife, and knelt directly in front of Zhu Dashan and cried and begged for mercy. Zhu Dashan laughed and said to Malerji: "Look at it, the Manchurian warriors are just like that." ”

Seeing that the two of them were so cowardly, Maleji and Yin Tu stomped their feet angrily and kept scolding the two. Of course, Zhu Dashan would not let them continue to scold, and directly dragged the two of them aside, and said to the people in the prison: "Are there any bold people among you, if any of you dare to cut these two Tartars, I will make him an official." and now he is rewarded with five taels of silver. I saw that the people inside didn't dare to answer, and when Zhu Dashan was disappointed, a man in the corner said, "What you said is true?" It can't be a lie. ”

Zhu Dashan said: I'll ask someone to fetch the silver now. As he was talking, Zhou Dazhu walked in, and he heard about five taels of silver, and he just found thirty taels of silver in the barracks and handed them to him, and said busily: "I'll use the silver now." So saying, he laid the money on a table in the prison.

When the man saw that the silver had been placed there, he got up and walked to the prison door, and asked the soldiers of the Restoration Camp to take him to Zhu Dashan. He glanced at Zhu Dashan, walked over directly, spat on his hand and rubbed it, then picked up the knife and walked to the two young Tartars, and shouted violently, only to see the knife flash. Before the tartar could scream, his head was cut off, and the head rolled on the ground a few times and stopped. The other Tartars saw the slain Tartars with fear in their eyes.

The man was frightened and incontinent when he saw his companion being killed, and now he saw the man walking towards him with a knife, and he suddenly collapsed on the ground in fright. The mouth kept begging for mercy, and for a while, the grandfather and the ancestors kept shouting, and the man didn't care, he raised his knife and slashed at the tartar who was paralyzed on the ground. As a result, the direction was not calculated, and the head was not cut off with a knife, and only half of it was broken. The knife was blocked by the soil on the ground, and the man himself was a little embarrassed, and smiled apologetically to Zhu Dashan. The Tartar on the ground was cut off half of his neck, and he didn't lose his breath instantly, and he screamed a few times on the ground before he lost his voice, and the Tartar who was standing on the side suddenly collapsed to the ground in fright.

Even Zhou Dazhu and other soldiers of the Restoration Camp also changed color, and Zhu Dashan admired this man a little. Being able to kill two people so brutally may not have been a good person before, but when is it now? On the battlefield, such a talent will make the enemy afraid, and Zhu Dashan only knew that he had no way to retreat from the decision to resist the Qing Dynasty in the southern county. Zhu Dashan's later generations also saw some interesting stories about historical celebrities when he was bored, and there were rebels in every dynasty who were recruited, but only the Qing Dynasty did not. As long as there are rebellions, they are always exterminated and killed. So Zhu Dashan didn't think about being recruited at all.

So Zhu Dashan admired this man very much, so he said, "What's your name?" Where are you from? The man put the silver on his chest and said: "My name is Jia Si, I used to kill pigs, and then the Qing soldiers came and killed my family, and then I specially robbed and killed the Qing soldiers and the Qing court officials in the past." Last month, I killed an official on the side of Yingshan, but I didn't expect him to be a powerful dog. I lost my hand, I was originally locked up in Yingshan, and I heard that Gao Minzhan, the governor of Sichuan, was going to fight Chengdu. And they brought me over. said that as long as I went to take the city then, as long as I could enter Chengdu, I would let me go. As a result, no one cared about Lao Tzu for a few days, and he didn't give him food last night. ”

Zhu Dashan smiled when he heard this: "Then you follow me in the future, the governor Gao Minzhan you want to follow has been killed by me, and I will give you one back if I cut off your way." Jia Sidao: "I don't care, anyway, the people in the family are all dead, and now I am alone." As long as I can eat and sleep well, I can do it with you. Zhu Dashan said: "I can't guarantee that I will sleep well, but it is absolutely no problem to eat well." Jia Si said: "It's okay to eat well," so Zhu Dashan asked Jia Si to wait on the side.

Zhu Dashan picked two more people from those cavalry and asked them to kill Yin Tu alive. When these two people saw that the person just now didn't do anything, they were immediately killed, and they remembered the tragic situation of the two. looked at Yin Tu, who was already naked, and as soon as his eyes were closed, he used a knife to cut off a piece of meat on Yin Tu's shoulder. Yin Tu didn't shout in anger, but the two horsemen who moved their hands cried in fright.

The soldiers of the Restoration Camp didn't care about this, and when they saw the two of them stop and scolded again, the two of them were afraid to be busy and took knives to cut the flesh on Yin Tu's body. After cutting a few knives, Yin Tu couldn't hold back his screams. Zhu Dashan asked the others to go up and do it, and the first two cavalrymen sat directly on the ground after hearing that they didn't need to do it themselves, and they couldn't stand up again.

Zhu Dashan asked people to help another Qincha Nengtu, and asked people to cut him alive. For a while, the entire prison was full of wailing. The remaining thirteen cavalrymen originally thought that Zhu Dashan would let them go after they killed Qin Cha, but Zhu Dashan's words made them even more distracted.

Zhu Dashan saw that the thirteen young cavalrymen had gone up and moved, and they were all stained with Qincha's blood. So he asked people to take thirteen pieces of meat from the two Qincha, and then distributed them to the thirteen people: "As long as you eat the Qincha meat in your hands, I will allow you to surrender, and you can live" The thirteen people are now being tortured by Zhu Dashan who want to die, and they can't wait for themselves to die, but now they don't have the courage to let them die by themselves, so they have to feed the meat to their mouths with trembling hands. But before I could feed it, I felt a tumbling stomach and vomited. Malerji was tied to the side because his heart was broken, he didn't expect Zhu Dashan to be so miserable. I saw that his eyes were red, and he kept cursing Zhu Dashan.

Zhu Dashan said angrily: "You feel very angry now, do you know how many Han people the Qing army killed?" I have only heard about the slaughter of cities at every turn, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, but since I entered Sichuan, what I have seen is full of desolation, and it is Liao uninhabited. This was once the land of abundance. Why weren't you angry at that time, why didn't you curse those brutes at that time. ”

The more Zhu Dashan spoke, the more angry he became, and he walked over directly and took a knife on the neck of a cavalryman and shouted: "If you don't eat, Lao Tzu will cut you." Under Zhu Dashan's knife, the cavalryman felt a chill in his neck. Under the fear of death, he suddenly closed his eyes and opened his mouth to feed the meat in his hand to his mouth, and he didn't dare to chew it and swallowed it directly. Zhu Dashan saw him eat it and said, "Yes, I accept your surrender." The cavalryman sat on the ground with a pale face, unable to move, as if he had cast a spell on him. The others were also forced by the soldiers of the Restoration Camp to eat it in the end.

At this time, Zhu Dashan turned to Maleji and said: "Lord Qincha, it seems that the bones of the Manchurians are not hard, and the Manchurian warriors are not all afraid of death." Malegi just kept cursing in his mouth, and he was still speaking. Zhu Dashan saw that he was useless. Let the soldiers of the Restoration Battalion be killed directly.

At this time, the entire prison was terrifyingly quiet, and many of the people who were locked in the cell were so frightened that they peed their pants. But this is exactly the effect that Zhu Dashan wants, he must form a force that can resist the Qing army's counterattack as soon as possible.
