Chapter 120: I Shed Blood for the Temple of Confucius!
"Fu Ming to destroy the captive?"
Outside the city gate of Zou Cheng, Wang Zaijin, who led the army to attack, held a telescope and looked at Yang Xin who walked out of it with a ruined expression.
The latter carried Xu Hongru's head in one hand and the ochre yellow robe in the other, followed by tens of thousands of disciples who walked out in a queue, and among these disciples there were big cars, and the carts were all dead corpses with different heads, and behind Yang Xin was a slurp, with four big characters written on it, Fu Ming to destroy the captives, to kill Hu, and then followed by a bunch of gongs and drums......
"Zhongcheng, what is this?"
Next to Wang Zaijin, a green worm carrying a sword said angrily.
Then there was a disgruntled shouting.
"What? Count Yang Yishi's hand blade demon to recruit his people! ”
Wang Zaijin said angrily.
"He beheaded Xu Shun alone and surrendered tens of thousands of rebels, so what are our tens of thousands of troops? Guo broke his family for the country, and fought for the moon, just to see him show off his military exploits? ”
The man said angrily.
"That's right, the brothers are waiting for the thief to receive the reward!"
A general next to him said indignantly.
"Wouldn't it be better to shut up? Are you willing to kill and wound more soldiers? Yang Yishi is loyal to the country, and His Majesty in the Battle of Liaodong was dismissed by him with the award of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, which is even His Majesty issued a decree to praise, can't you learn from Yang Yishi? That credit is indispensable to you, these days you have made a war exploits, the official has already played Your Majesty, and the rewards in the future are indispensable, why bother here, they are all official positions and fame, like a shrew! ”
The old king rebuked him angrily.
What he means is that you are all arguing, Yang Xin can go directly to the sky, am I still ordering you to kill and surrender in order to cut off people's heads? Then he asked the emperor to slander, and you were unlucky for me at that time? Now that the matter has come to this, we can only admit it.
"But that's the end of the crimes of these rebels after killing Yasheng?"
The man said.
Wang Zaijin ignored him.
At this time, Yang Xin had already arrived, and this guy directly threw Xu Hongru's head and the ochre yellow robe at Lao Wang's feet on the horse......
"Wang Zhongcheng, Yang is fortunate not to be dishonored, Xu Shun's head and arrogance are here, and there are more than 50 people such as Xu Shunfeng's pseudo-prime minister, but his younger brother is not among them because he led the army to Yishan. Fortunately, the subordinates who were coerced by him had already woken up to the fact that as long as these people went to the foot of Yishan to persuade them, the thief army who wanted to come to Yishan would inevitably behead their younger brothers and surrender. ”
Yang Xin said.
There are 30,000 incense cultists in the city, and the other 20,000 are in Yishan, commanded by Xu Hongru's younger brother Xu Heyu.
And Shen Zhi's department still has 20,000.
That is to say, the total strength of the Wenxiang Sect is currently 70,000, both brought by Xu Hongru from Yuncheng, and Zhang Dongbai and other places developed in Zou Teng and other places, as for the hundreds of thousands, they are all blown, who has not blown the strength of the army in this year's war, the official army is still claimed to be 150,000, in fact, even the township Yong adds up to less than 100,000.
"There is a righteous man of Lao Yang!"
Wang Zaijin said with a smile.
"Yang Yishi, although these people have surrendered, they can't be dealt with so hastily, which ones are involved in killing Dr. Meng, destroying Meng's mansion, and making Yasheng's spirit in the sky uneasy, I'm afraid we have to carefully screen, as far as I know, most of the people who killed the Meng family are the local thieves in Zou County, in order to find out this matter, it is best to single out the Zou County thieves separately for screening!"
The man just said.
"The thief who killed Dr. Meng is here, and he has been beheaded, as for the Zou Cheng thief, Zhang Dongbai, who was killed by Yang before the first thief, both the culprit and the person who did it were ambushed, Dr. Meng can rest in peace in the spirit of the sky, as for those who are coerced, if they want to come to the benevolence of Master Meng, they will not bother with them!"
Yang Xin said.
He had already thought about it.
After all, there must be an explanation for the destruction of the Meng family.
But Zhang Dongbai is already dead, and if he finds out and kills the one who did it, this will be regarded as a dismissive, as for the people of Zou Cheng who destroyed the Meng Mansion, there are many broken families in this war, and Meng Fuzi is benevolent, so he can't kill thousands of people for the Meng family's death, right?
That Mengfuzi is also restless in the spirit of heaven.
"Yang Yishi, the country has its own laws, how to deal with him I am afraid that Yang Yishi is not worried about it, but Guo is very curious, how did Yang Yishi make tens of thousands of thieves surrender with one mouth? Could it be that Yang Yishi promised them something? Or did Yang Yishi have a relationship with them before? Guo is a straight person, what do you have to say, in short, Guo is quite confused about this matter, Guo is also full of poetry and books, but he thinks he doesn't have this ability, how did Yang Yishi do it? ”
The man sneered.
Yang Xin walked directly to him.
"Your Excellency's surname?"
He asked.
"Guo Shiqi, a student of Wenshang!"
The man said.
"Guo Shiqi?"
Yang Xin smiled and nodded.
Suddenly, he grabbed the clothes on Guo Shiqi's chest, relying on himself being half a head taller than him, and looked down at him very fiercely......
"I have shed blood for the Confucian Temple, and you dare to doubt me? Where were you when I fought bloodily to defend the Dacheng Palace? Where were you when I stained my robes with blood for the Holy Father? As a follower of Confucius and taught by the sages, is this how you treat the protectors of the Holy Land? Are you worthy of the green robe on your body, worthy of the spirit of Confucius in the sky? ”
He roared angrily.
Then his saliva fell on Guo Shiqi's face like rain, and poor Guo Shiqi couldn't hide when he grabbed him, so he could only bear it with a humiliated face.
"Yang Yishi is angry!"
Wang Zaijin hurriedly grabbed him on the side.
Yang Xin gave the governor a lot of face, and he immediately pushed Guo Shiqi aside.
Guo Shiqi hurriedly took out his handkerchief and wiped his face angrily, but he really didn't have the courage to provoke Yang Xin again, this is really disgusting, and more importantly, he can't fight back, he can't fight back by force, he can't open his mouth, his true bloody battle saved the Dacheng Palace, and more than two hundred dead bodies were cleaned up in front of Kuiwen Pavilion, nearly half of which he did alone. It can be said that without him, the Wenxiang disciples will attack the Dacheng Palace, but they destroyed the Meng Temple, then they will inevitably destroy the Confucian Temple, in this sense, the entire Ming scholars have to give him a bow to thank him for keeping the Dacheng Palace.
He himself said that he was the guardian of the Holy Land, and he deserved it.
It is said that Kong Yinzhi has been on the table, and the Kong family will make him a gold medal for meritorious service, and then His Majesty the Emperor will reward Yang Xin to express his gratitude.
No matter how disgusting it is, you have to endure the nausea!
This is a matter of face, and people cannot be said to be ungrateful.
Several other green worms also quickly retreated.
The best thing for him to do is to stay away, otherwise he will have to make a face as a guardian of the Holy Land.
Speaking of Yang Yishi's bloody battle to protect the Confucian Temple, the world's scholars are very grateful to the righteous people, there can be no reason for disrespect, and there is no need to care about the unintentional words, but these people should indeed be screened, otherwise the local government will not be able to resettle. Anyway, there are inevitably anti-party leaders hidden in such a large number of them, these people are deeply bewitched by the heresy, I am afraid it will be difficult to truly repent, in case there are hidden dangers in the future! ”
Wang Zaijin pulled Yang Xin and said.
"Wang Zhongcheng don't worry, this Yang has already thought about it, I am ready to ask His Majesty to take them to find a place to reclaim the wasteland, so that there is no need to worry about the place, I told Your Majesty before that I would take the refugees from Liaodong to reclaim the wasteland, but Xiong Jingluo is quite proper for the resettlement of refugees, and I haven't heard of the need to move to Guannai for the time being. And these people can just be used, and it can be regarded as their atonement for their sins, after all, they participated in the rebellion, and it is not appropriate to be punished at all, and it is also a punishment to let them reclaim the land and work as coolies. ”
Yang Xin said.
Xiong Tingbi's refugee relocation plan has been delayed.
It's too much to do.
For the powerful family of Liaodong, they are actually more willing to turn these refugees into their own serfs.
Originally, this is what they did in history, the ancestral family, the Wu family, all developed to thousands of domestic slaves, and there was even no shortage of secret transactions with Jiannu, who robbed the population and sold it to them.
The gentry in the customs were afraid that after the Liao people entered the customs, they would seize their fertile land and even breed thieves.
This is also inevitable, if you want to really let them be properly resettled, you must give them the land that can support themselves, which will definitely move the cake of the gentry in the Guannai, which is definitely not possible, but if they cannot be properly resettled, it will inevitably lead to them making trouble, and even rebellion. For example, Kong Youde's gang, to put it bluntly, were Liaodong refugees who fled to Shandong, and because they could not be properly resettled, they finally embarked on the road of rebellion, and even turned to Jiannu.
In short, the matter is complicated.
The imperial court is still arguing, and Wanli doesn't want to have a headache for this, so Yang Xin's reclamation has not moved much so far.
Now he thinks about these people again.
"You have taken all the people away, who will plant our land in the future?"
Wang Zaijin, a local tyrant and inferior gentleman beside him was stunned.
"Leave them, you don't worry, I take them away, and you don't think there is anyone to farm for you, so what do you want?"
Yang Xin said angrily.
"The stakes are big, and we need to think about it in the long run!"
Wang Zaijin said.
He didn't dare to agree to this kind of thing, not to mention that Yang Xin took these people away, the gentry in this area had no tenants to farm, even if Yang Xin took them away, so many people and other gentry in other places could not agree to accept it, unless it was the kind of wasteland without people, otherwise which local gentry could allow tens of thousands of people to go to their own place to reclaim wasteland? Those who can be reclaimed will be reclaimed by themselves, and the rest will definitely be purely unable to support people, and when the time comes, these people will still rebel if they can't support themselves, and those gentry are not fools, how can they allow such a hidden danger that can erupt at any time to be sent to their side.
"Then let Your Majesty decide!"
Yang Xin said.
He didn't expect an old fox like Wang Zaijin to agree.
