Chapter 665: Battle is Battle
Cabinet Hall.
"King Zhennan, this is simply outrageous, although Liu Hanru taught King Xin to be derelict in his duties, but he has always accumulated virtue and done good deeds for the eunuchs in his hometown, and now he is dead in the wasteland, and his bones are trampled by thousands of horses, if he does not severely punish the culprit, how can he thank the people of the world?"
Lu Shanji said angrily.
In other words, this news did cause indignation in the capital.
Those officials and gentry who were angry because of Yang Xin's perverse actions during this period of time were directly ignited with raging anger.
It's not that it's because of the arrogance of these Yang thief minions, after all, everyone knows that he is a Yang thief, and he will definitely not be a little white rabbit, it is normal to show his sharp teeth, the key problem is that he was killed by a registered eunuch, a genuine jinshi. No matter who this Jinshi is or what faction he is, he was cut off by a rough soldier like a pig, and then trampled into mud by the cavalry like a dead dog, which was unbearable for Wenchen.
What is it?
Has the era of the proud warriors begun?
Has the era when generals can wantonly kill civil servants has begun again?
No matter what Liu Hanru did, he was a jinshi, so the generals must maintain a minimum of respect for him, even if he was treated politely on the battlefield, even if he was caught, he had to remain polite, and he could not let a jinshi be insulted. Zhang Xianzhong killed Liu Hanru, threw his dead body on the battlefield, and let those cavalry trample on it, and it was not Liu Hanru who trampled on it, but the entire civil official group, the entire gentry group, and the face of all Confucian students in the world, which was simply mad.
If Zhang Xianzhong is not severely punished, all the generals will know that they no longer need to respect civilian officials.
Your own knife can cut the throat of any civil official.
Those commanders didn't need to tremble in the face of a seven-rank patrolman, they only needed to draw their knives to cut off the head of this seven-rank patrolman and trample their dead corpses under their feet.
"King Zhennan, your ministry is unprepared for the boat bridge, and brazenly set fire to Yuankou, how is this different from a mutiny?"
Fan Jingwen said.
"Bazhou reported that the fire burned thousands of homes, nearly 10,000 innocent people were killed and injured, and Yuankou was a ghost domain. Now that the people are panicking and the folk rumors are rising, the king should immediately order your department to temporarily withdraw to the south of Yuankou, and the Yixing Bosuo Department will take over Bazhou, so that the people can be calmed down, otherwise if it goes on like this, it will not be good to make a bigger mess! ”
Qin Shiwen, the new right attendant of the military department, said worriedly.
He is a man of the Shadows.
But he wasn't alarmist.
The Bazhou Zhizhou newspaper did indeed destroy thousands of homes in the fire, causing nearly 10,000 deaths and injuries to the people, and also used many artistic adjectives to describe the tragedy caused by the fire.
It's a daily operation anyway.
The civil servants and generals of the Ming Dynasty are accustomed to processing everything that involves numbers.
For example, a cannon eroded dozens of miles and the like, although the governor of Bazhou knew very well that those who died outside the city were regimental exercises, but the regimental exercises were also people, and the regimental exercises were definitely not the army, so there was nothing wrong with him saying this, at most, he exaggerated the number of dead and wounded dozens of times, but it did not exceed the extent of a cannon eroding dozens of miles.
And Yang Xin sat there looking up at the roof, ignoring the group of Wenchen around him.
"King Zhennan."
Sun Chengzong said.
Yang Xin continued to turn a deaf ear.
This attitude is very irritating.
"King Zhennan, Your Majesty entrusts you with state affairs, is King Zhennan so dutiful?"
Lu Shanji said angrily.
Yang Xin straightened his waist lazily......
"What's the use of you talking so much?"
He said very politely.
Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at Lu Shanji......
"You, took the regimental training to block the volunteers, and even set up an ambush on the shore to prepare for a sneak attack, but the failure ended up in a melee, and then you rode a horse and commanded the regiment to practice the charge with a knife, and then Liu Hanru, who was stabbed to death by Zhang Xianzhong with a sword in the battle, said as innocent as a white lotus. So do you want me to let Sun Shoufa escort the captured regimental training over, and let's hold a three-class trial here to see who burned the Yongji Bridge, who dug the river ice, who set up an ambush on the north bank, and who led thousands of heavily armed regimental training to set up artillery by the Daqing River to block the volunteers who were ordered to go north?
Although I know you like to reverse right and wrong.
But this time it's a bit too much, and we have to think more or less about conscience.
Is this what Mrs. Lu taught you? ”
Yang Xin said.
Lu Shanji snorted coldly.
Then Yang Xin pointed his finger at Fan Jingwen again......
"You, you ignore the fact that the Yongji Bridge was set on fire by Liu Hanru, ignore the fact that they cut off the road and block the volunteers from going north, and say that the obstruction of the volunteers is that the boat bridge is unprepared, and erase the real reason with a light sentence. As soon as you touch your mouth, black and white will be reversed immediately, this is fortunate that you haven't been asked to write a history book, if you go to write a history book, I don't know how many things you have made up to delay future generations, I guess now I let those captives come over and tell how they set fire to the bridge, and you will also be said that they were bribed to frame Liu Hanru. ”
He said.
Fan Jingwen raised his head arrogantly, disdainful to answer the question.
Then Yang Xin pointed his finger at Qin Shiwen again......
"Qin Binyu Gong, he also burned thousands of homes and burned nearly 10,000 people, did you believe it yourself when you said this?"
He said.
"Isn't that the case?"
Qin Shiwen took out the prelude of the governor of Bazhou and said.
"Come on, send Qin Shilang to Yuankou!"
Yang Xin shouted.
Outside, Cao Bianjiao broke in with Jinyiwei like a hungry wolf, set up Qin Shilang and walked out, at this time, the nine thousand years old no longer needed to be protected, after all, there was his nephew in the capital, and Cao Bianjiao had merit in protecting the prince, and he had to be promoted. In fact, now he is the hereditary commander of the Jinyi Guard, and as for the specific position, he is to follow the king of Zhennan as a thug.
He's very big.
Holding Qin Shilang is directly equivalent to picking it up.
The unlucky Qin Shilang hung directly with his feet in the air, screaming all the way with their outward footsteps, Sun Chengzong and the others hesitated, but after all, no one got up to stop them.
"You all know what's going on there, but you're all speaking with your conscience, you just want to tell me that if the volunteers continue to go north, they will start a war with the regimental training, and you want me to drive the volunteers back quickly, isn't that what you mean? Then let them fight well, I won't care, just let them fight, aren't the gentry in Bazhou asking for help from all over the regimental training? I won't stop it, even if the group training in other places is in the past, they love to fight and fight in Yuankou, and if they have the ability, they will destroy Sun Shoufa's 15,000 people, and I won't say anything more here.
I'm willing to gamble and lose.
However, the gentry of Beizhili also had to be willing to gamble and lose.
If they lose, then don't blame me for being unkind, all those gentry who participated in the formation of the group training and all the gentry who raised money for the group training, don't even think about running away, they all copy their homes.
What do you think?
Doesn't that make sense? ”
Yang Xin said.
He didn't believe that these people dared!
In terms of the level of regimental training, which is about to collapse, it is not enough for the cavalry to step on, in fact, this matter is really calculated, it is not very good for him, the main thing is that it is easy to scare the gentry of Beizhili into losing their fighting spirit, this battle regimental training is too bad, it is difficult to give the gentry courage, and it is even inferior to those regimental training in the south, in the final analysis, his purpose is that these people resist, and then he will divide the land one by one.
Scare back......
Scared back, it can't delay the division of the field.
You can't take the opportunity to raid your home, this is still regrettable after all.
"King Zhennan, we are here today to solve the matter of Yuankou, is this the posture of King Zhennan to solve the matter? We are all officials of the imperial court, and we are all doing things for Your Majesty, and now that this kind of thing has happened, what we should do is to solve this matter and avoid the two sides from continuing to fight and causing more innocent casualties, instead of instigating them to continue fighting! ”
Elder Sun Ge said.
"No, I just like to fight!"
Yang Xin said.
These guys are visibly wilted.
"There is a rule in Europe, I think it is worth learning from, they have any disputes that cannot be resolved, such as the hatred of taking a wife, just don't be verbose, just one person with a short gun a few steps away, shoot each other face to face, life and death have their own destiny.
Death is a problem solved.
Since the gentry of Beizhili do not welcome the volunteers, and the volunteers must enter Beijing, then let them fight in this way, the big deal is that I will temporarily move out the people of Yuankou and Bazhou, you don't have to worry about hurting the innocent, I will pay compensation to the people who temporarily moved out, let's circle the land of Bazhou and Yuankou for them, let them fight, and use guns to solve this problem!
I give them plenty of time to prepare.
Sun Shoufa's department will continue to be stationed in Yuankou for at least a month, one month is enough for all parts of the group training to complete the assembly, at that time, let them fight happily again, save such long-winded and not cool enough, but the group training is going to lose, then I really have to start raiding the house. ”
Yang Xin said.
It doesn't matter if you really fight, anyway, it's winter at this time, and there are frozen reeds everywhere, so you don't have to worry about collateral damage.
But......
A month!
A month later, it was time for Sun Chuanting to enter the big drama of the Qingjun side.
Then Wu Xiang from the south went north.
And here the regimental exercises from all over the country are also assembled at Yuankou, which should almost be able to make the gentry muster up the courage to have a decisive battle, after all, they can say that everything is ready, and it would be really disappointing if such good conditions are not used.
Lu Shanji turned around without hesitation and brushed his sleeves away.
Fan Jingwen pointed at him tremblingly......
"Gentleman, do you think this is reasonable?"
Yang Xin said with a smile.
Fan Jingwen finally couldn't continue to face his evil face, and then he also turned around and brushed his sleeves away, leaving only a few pavilion elders, and Fang Ge Lao and Xu Ge Lao were obviously not interested in mixing these, only Sun Ge Lao looked entangled, saying that Yang Xin made it clear that he was challenging the Beizhili gentry, so did the Beizhili gentry dare to fight?
