Chapter 042: Murder
Since the Jin people besieged the city, there were not a few people in the city who starved to death and froze to death, and the bark and grass roots were eaten, and then they fed on mice, cats, and human flesh, which was miserable.
Now, despite the victory in the war, if there is no food, the people of the city do not know how many people will starve to death. At this time, there is naturally as much food as possible, and I try to bring it into the city.
Wu Ge smiled helplessly and said, "What General Wang said is true. If we are the rear army, once the Jin people counterattack, it will not be a rush to disperse. The general is really a man of God!"
He turned his head and said loudly: "Brothers, clean up the battlefield, as long as you have food and war horses, dead horses and live horses, you can't leave anything behind!"
Wu Ge took the sergeants down to work, and Zhang Xian said in a low voice: "Big official, the little lady is really far-sighted. Knowing that the most lacking thing in the city was food, he besieged Qingcheng first. There must have been a lot of grain, jerky, gold, silver, and jewelry. Maybe it's a big bonus!"
There was also a Jurchen army outside the city, and everyone cleaned up the battlefield, but they didn't dare to clean up too slowly. The dry war horses were swept away, and many soldiers secretly hid the gold and silver belongings they had looted from the Jin people, but they were stopped by Wu Ge sharply.
"The emperor and his ministers are watching from the top of the city! After entering the city, the whole army must search their bodies, if there are gold, silver and jewels on their bodies, the light ones are the spine of the staff, and the heavy ones are killed, don't play with your own body and human heads!"
All the troops were bitter-faced, and they took out the jewels and other things they had hidden. At this time, whoever dares to commit a crime against the wind may have serious consequences.
Everyone knows that the defense of the city is now in charge of the loyal army, and the military rules of the loyal army are strict, if they are caught, it is not as simple as peeling off the skin.
"Great officials, there are countless grains, gold, silver and jewelry in Qingcheng, as well as a large number of Song people!"
Dong Ping came over, his round face full of smiles.
Wang Song nodded, and said loudly: "Order the sergeants, as well as the people, to move all the grain to Tokyo City, and don't leave a single one for the Jin soldiers!"
Dong Ping left happily, Wang Song raised his head, but saw that among the troops, Zhe Yuexiu walked over with a sergeant and a dozen prisoners dressed as civilian officials.
"General Wang, these people are all Jin people's staff and generals, and before they had time to escape, they were arrested by our army. You can interrogate and see if you have any catches. ”
Zheyuexiu's face was calm, but Wang Song was hot in his heart, and nodded: "Folded little lady, thank you very much." It's good that you're okay!"
Seeing that the eyes around her swept over, Zhi Yuexiu's face turned red, but she didn't say anything and walked away alone.
"All of them!"
Wang Song looked over and saw that the Han officials had different faces, all of them bowed their heads and did not speak.
Wang Song jumped off the horse and stood in front of this row of people to look carefully.
In the middle of the crowd, several middle-aged men were calm, with white faces, slender fingers, and faintly the appearance of a master. Most of the rest of the Han officials were pale, and some were even extremely uneasy and trembling.
"If any of you can tell me who you are, I will spare his life."
Wang Song said loudly, gently took out the iron gun behind his back, handed it to the sergeant beside him, leaned over and grabbed a long knife.
"General, the villains are all common things in the Jin Army, and what they do is just to support their families, and they don't hurt the heavens and reason, please forgive the general!"
A white Confucian man in his thirties, with a calm face, gave a deep salute.
As soon as the words fell, Wang Song's steel knife had already slashed down. The Confucian was caught off guard, blood splattered from his neck, and he fell down screaming, his red blood spilling a long line on the snow.
Wang Song slowly walked past the crowd, many of them trembling and pale.
Wang Song came to a middle-aged Confucian scholar, stopped, and asked in a deep voice: "Can you tell me who these are, who are their surnames, and what official positions they are?"
"Thief, a humble gentleman like Yang Tianji has been ruthlessly killed by you! The Han people are well-known and courteous, the state of Chinese etiquette, how did you come out of such a murderous scum! If you want to kill or chop, listen to the ......"
A terrible cry sounded, and the middle-aged Confucian was hit hard by the back of the knife, and fell heavily into the snow, covering his face and wailing.
"As a Han Chinese, willing to drive for foreign races, enslave Han people, and slaughter the people, what face does he have to call himself a humble gentleman, I really don't know that there is a word shame in the world!"
He turned his head and said coldly: "The city of Tokyo is full of hunger, and the people are starving to death and freezing to death, not to mention 100,000, and they are only eaten with human flesh. Hand him over to the people of Tokyo City and see what they do with this thief!"
The sergeant stepped forward and punched and kicked the middle-aged Confucian to the side.
Wang Song turned around, walked to the middle of the row of people, and shouted: "For the last time, the answerer will not die!"
In the crowd, four or five Han officials fell to their knees at once, kowtowed together, and shouted: "General, the villain is willing to speak, the villain is willing to speak!"
Zhang Xian pointed to one of the young Han men and said loudly: "You, don't hurry up!"
The man raised his head, his face was full of panic, and said loudly: "General Hui, it was the senator Yang Tianji who was killed by the general just now. It was Wang Xiao who was taken down by the general, and he was also a confidant who could not be separated. ”
He pointed to a forty-year-old Han official who was still standing: "He is Wu Xiaomin, the chief performer of the Nanjing Privy Council, and he is the most ardent in running for the Jurchens."
"And the ...... next to him"
The man said out loud without hesitation: "This person is Liu Yanzong, the minister of the Yanjing Privy Council, and the commander of the Han army, and he is quite worthy of Yan Zongwang."
"Liu Yanzong?"
Wang Song couldn't help but raise his head and looked at the fifty-year-old man in front of him with a thin face and a righteous spirit. Here is the famous minister of the Jin Dynasty in history who tried his best to invade the Song Dynasty and advocated the destruction of the Song Dynasty.
In front of Zuo Qigong to prevent Ah Gu from preparing to hand over Yanjing to the Song Dynasty, "the king does not listen to the proposal to donate Yan, an inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of gold", there is Zhang Tonggu's "resignation of Song Shijin, insulting China", and then there is Liu Yanzong and Shi Liai's "For the sake of the pastoral relatives of the tomb, persuade Jin to enter the Kou and plan ten strategies", coupled with the instigation and advocacy of the Khitan generals Yelu Yujun and Xiao Qing spared no effort, the Jin people went south, and the lives of the Han people were devastated.
The Jin people destroyed the Liao, and the East Road was separated from (Wanyan Zongwang) to build a Privy Council in Yanshan, with Liu Yan as the head of the court, and the West Road Sticky Han (Wanyan Zonghan) built a Privy Council in the clouds.
I didn't expect to catch this thief today.
"Very good, you have made a great contribution today, and this official will spare you from death!"
Wang Song nodded, and the young Han official kowtowed a few times in a row and was taken aside.
"Liu Yanzong, how do you say this official will deal with you?"
Wang Song's eyes were cold, and the people around him felt the murderous aura on him.
Liu Yanzong's face turned pale, and he said loudly: "Wang Song, now that we are prisoners of your ranks, please take us to meet the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, this official has something to say!"
Wu Xiaomin's face was pale, his legs trembled, he bit his lip tightly, and stared at Wang Song.
"Meet the emperor, you are also worthy!"
Wang Song's face was gloomy, and he took the iron spear from the guard's hand, and his tone made people shudder.
"The Jurchen Yidi is greedy, insatiable, human-faced and animal-hearted; Coupled with you, you "traitors" who are in the twilight of the Qin Dynasty, snakes and scorpions, and ill-intentioned, how miserable are the people of the Great Song Dynasty!"
Wu Ge saw that Wang Song's face was pale, as if something was going to happen, so he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "General Wang, this thief can be taken hostage to urge the Jin people to withdraw their troops." Don't act arbitrarily and recklessly!"
Wang Song has already started working in the summer today, he doesn't want Wang Song to be impulsive, but he misses a big event.
"Old General Wu, you should still watch from the sidelines!"
Zhang Xian hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Wu Ge aside.
"Old General Wu, don't stop this matter, if there are no these Youyun Han people, why would China have today's disaster, just wait and see what happens!"
Wu Ge sighed, shook his head, and stood aside.
"They were embarrassed and lost, our army jumped to climb the throne, the fire of Yimen began, the water of the Bianhe River was boiling, the ministers had no place to donate their lives, and the society was in danger of exhaustion." Liu Yanzong, you said that the Jin people's invasion of the Song Dynasty was "the heavenly helper is shun", the wolf's ambition, and the heart of China will not die, how can I tolerate you!"
Liu Yanzong was taken aback and couldn't help but take a few steps back. Wang Song strode up, and the iron spear stabbed out like a poisonous snake, hitting Liu Yanzong's throat.
The iron spear came out through his neck and fixed Liu Yanzong on the snow. Wang Song withdrew the iron spear, and the blood on Liu Yanzong's neck shot out quickly, sprinkling a snow mark on the snow, his chest was blood-red, and his body slowly fell, falling softly on the snow.
"Mother!"
Wu Xiaomin was so frightened that he fell to the ground all of a sudden. Wang Song stepped forward, the iron spear penetrated through his chest, and then he shook his arms hard, Wu Xiaomin's body was thrown out far away, and with a bang, he fell on the snow, struggled a few times, and never got up again.
Several Han officials kneeling down kowtowed like pecking rice, causing Wang Song to shout angrily:
"I am a great country in China, a country of etiquette, a place of civilization, for thousands of years, heroes and heroes, people with lofty ideals, endlessly, not to mention tens of millions! Since Shi Jingjiao begged for foreigners, Tian was not ashamed, and gave up the land of Yanyun, and the small country of Khitan Puer became a disaster for China, which has been 190 years. Nowadays, the northern captives are rampant, and the wolf is ambitious, wanting to destroy our Chinese civilization. You waited for Qin and Dusk, saw the wind and made the rudder, fanned the wind and lit the fire, and used the blood of my Chinese people to dye the wolf skin of the official clothes worn by Er, etc., and it can be seen that the ranks of high-ranking officials such as Houlu are all paved by the corpses of the people of my Great Song Dynasty! ”
His eyes were red, he shouted angrily, almost roared, his feelings came from the bottom of his heart, and the faces of the soldiers around him were solemn, and everyone had a look of indignation.
Zheyuexiu's heart was fluttering, her eyes widened, and she didn't seem to recognize the man in front of her.
"Willing to be a lackey, fatherless and motherless, enslaving the same clan, there are still courtesy, righteousness and shame, and a well-dressed beast who forgets his ancestors!"
The sergeants were all dumbfounded, they never imagined that Wang Song would kill these old Liao Han ministers, and his personality would be so violent!
"What are you doing in a daze, the rest of the captives will all be taken back and handed over to the emperor for distribution!"
Zhang Xian was afraid that Wang Song would not be able to bear it, so he would kill these people again, and hurriedly shouted loudly to the sergeant next to him.
In any case, they had to get some prisoners back so that they could give an account to the emperor and his ministers.
If all these people were killed, not to mention anything else, just the verbal criticism of those civil servants who did not distinguish between black and white and referred to deer as horses would be enough for Wang Song to drink a pot.
