On August 22, in front of the Nihonbashi Bridge in Edo Castle, the soldiers of the Tiger Army set up an execution ground, and the crowds around the execution ground were surging, and at least tens of thousands of Japanese citizens gathered. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Among these citizens were merchants, helpers, subordinates of samurai, and samurai with swords.

They watched in horror as their emperor knelt on the execution ground, tied behind his back with hemp rope. On the emperor's back was a large chopping mark, on which was written a large chopping character with a red pen, and a circle was drawn on the outside of the chopping character.

This is the first time in history that someone has beheaded an emperor of Japan.

The citizens and businessmen of Japan looked at the soldiers of the Tiger Army on the execution ground with wide eyes, as if they felt that everything in front of them was unreal. The people of Japan are still there, the land of Japan is still there, but the emperor, the spiritual symbol of the Japanese people, is about to be beheaded.

Emperor Shaoren looked at his people, and his body couldn't help but tremble. The young Shohito had been largely trapped in Kyoto by the Tokugawa shogunate since he ascended the throne, and today was a rare scene for him. However, this big scene was the execution ground that killed him.

Outside the execution ground, there were circles of dense crowds, but no one spoke. The scene was surprisingly depressing.

On the side of the execution ground, Lei San looked at the atmosphere on the scene and frowned. He pulled a platoon commander and said, "You go to the regiment commander and say that one of our companies is not enough to maintain order, and there may be chaos later." At least one battalion will be transferred to guard the execution ground, and the Japanese people are likely to storm the execution ground. ”

The platoon commander looked at the silent Japanese people around him, swallowed his saliva, and ran quickly towards the barracks.

Lei San's suggestion was heeded, and soon, a battalion commander led 500 heavily armed Tiger Ben soldiers from the barracks outside the city into the castle town and surrounded the execution ground.

There were more than 600 soldiers around the execution ground, and the scene was a little calm.

Approaching noon, Li Zhi set out from Osaka Castle and headed for the execution ground at Nihonbashi under the honor guard of the county king.

The Japanese citizens along the way were very panicked when they saw Li Zhi's honor guard. Some knelt on both sides of the road, while others turned around and ran, as if they were afraid of Li Zhi as the conqueror.

Some of the samurai who had lost their master's house hid behind the windows of the tavern-casino, watching Li Zhi's team with pity.

Li Zhi rode on his horse and looked at the Japanese people on both sides of the road, thoughtful.

Japan's people are far more fierce than Korea's, and it will take some work to annex such a country.

Walking to the execution ground of Nihonbashi, Li Zhi clearly felt the tension.

Seeing Li Zhi's honor guard coming, the people around the execution ground did not kneel. Amid the shouting and scolding of the pro-soldiers, the silent crowd reluctantly made way for the pro-soldiers to pass. The anger of the citizens seemed to be about to explode at any moment, and they stood there one by one looking at Li Zhi with wide eyes.

Li Zhi frowned and walked to the viewing platform next to the execution ground.

As if sensing that something was wrong, Zhong Feng transferred another battalion of soldiers from outside the city, increasing the vigilance force around the execution ground to 1,000 people.

After waiting for a while, the sun climbed directly above the sky.

A Tiger Soldier walked up to the execution ground and shouted, "The hour has come!" ”

The executing soldiers dragged the weeping Japanese Emperor Shohito to the front of the execution table to be beheaded.

However, at this moment, tens of thousands of Japanese people in the audience were boiling.

The Yamato nation of Japan is not the master of Japan since ancient times. In fact, Wazu was originally a small nation in the Yamato region of Japan, which rose to prominence under the leadership of the emperor. After a thousand years of expansion, the Japanese people killed all the indigenous Ainu people in Japan, and then they controlled the whole of Japan.

Even in the 22nd year of Chongzhen, the Ainu still live in Hokkaido, and the Japanese and ethnic groups and the white-skinned Ainu still fight in Hokkaido.

For the Japanese, the emperor was the one who led the rise of the Japanese in central Japan. Even though the emperor has been controlled and puppeted by the samurai class for a long time for thousands of years, the emperor has always been the spiritual pillar of the nation.

The conquerors of the Ming Dynasty overthrew the shogunate, which was acceptable.

If you want to kill the emperor, you can't accept it!

The Japanese shouted loudly as if they had suddenly woken up.

"Let the Emperor go!"

"The Emperor can't be killed!"

"The Emperor is onboard!"

The civilians began to push and shove with the soldiers who maintained order. The boundaries of the crowd and the soldiers rippled like the waves.

Li Zhi carefully observed the people who were pushing the soldiers, and found that the samurai with swords did not seem to have such strong feelings towards the emperor, and they all stood in the back row. On the contrary, it was the unarmed ordinary citizens who were so loyal to the emperor that they squeezed forward desperately to rush to the stage to rescue him.

Soon, tens of thousands of citizens pushed through the defense line composed of a thousand soldiers, and hundreds of citizens broke through the first line of defense and ran desperately towards the emperor on the stage.

"Save the Emperor!"

"Save the Emperor!"

Zhong Feng looked at Li Zhi.

Li Zhi said expressionlessly: "Let's shoot." ”

Zhong Feng's face was overjoyed, and he violently blew the horn symbolizing suppression.

Two hundred Tiger Warriors raised their well-loaded rifles and, without hesitation, aimed at the Japanese citizens who rushed towards the execution table, and struck the trigger.

"Bang Bang!"

Blood flowers bloomed like flowers, and hundreds of Japanese citizens who broke through the defense line fell dozens of steps outside the execution platform with screams. The vicinity of the execution site was suddenly filled with the smell of blood.

There were also citizens who had not been killed, who were still rushing forward, thinking that it would take a long time for the rifles to fire again, but they did not expect that the soldiers of the Tiger Army were using rear-loading rifles. Only five seconds later, the gunshots rang out again. In the crackling gunfire, the last hundred or so people were killed.

The onlookers were stunned when they saw such a bloody scene, and the movements of pushing and shoving the soldiers in their hands were suddenly much lighter.

On the south side of the execution ground, one of the companies that had been pushed by the citizens the most suddenly retreated, letting in the citizens who were squeezing them.

A company in the back raised its rear-loading rifle and fired, and in the sound of gunfire like beans, rows of citizens rushed up, fell, rushed up, fell, and died on the execution ground one by one like moths to a fire.

Outside the execution ground, the corpses of citizens were suddenly covered.

Blood flowed everywhere, making red the dominant color around the execution ground.

The citizens of Edo were finally frightened, and they understood that the conquerors of the Great Ming were not easy to talk to, and any charge was an act of death.

The citizens finally stopped pushing and shoving the Tiger Ben soldiers, but looked at the hundreds of corpses of citizens below the execution ground in amazement.

Li Zhi looked at the situation on the execution ground and found that the Japanese samurai with swords were calmer and retreated one by one.

The soldiers re-walked to the perimeter of the execution ground and reformed the human wall. This time, no one dared to break into the human wall.

Seeing that the scene was under control, Zhong Feng snorted coldly. With a wave of his hand, he signaled for the execution to begin.

The soldiers of the Tiger Army went up and pulled out the slashing mark on the back of Emperor Shaoren.

As soon as the standard was pulled, the Japanese citizens in the audience suddenly knelt on the ground and cried.

The emperor is the symbol of Japan, the tablet of the Japanese, and the god of the Japanese.

No one has ever conquered Japan, and no one has ever killed the gods of the Japanese. If the emperor died, Japan would no longer be a country, a country that had been expanding on the land of the white Ainu for thousands of years.

Today, Li Zhi wants to change history and ruin the history of the Japanese.

However, the conquerors had already defeated everything by force, and the Tokugawa shogunate, which was guarding Japan, had been completely destroyed, and the daimyo everywhere had no ability to resist, and the tiger army would destroy wherever it attacked. The pride of the Japanese has been completely knocked to the ground.

Japan has perished, and it is not up to unarmed citizens to storm the execution ground that can change it.

Tens of thousands of Japanese citizens wailed and cried, and the sound spread for more than ten miles. Even the Japanese citizens who were far away from the execution site seemed to understand the situation on the execution ground and began to cry. For a moment, Li Zhi only felt that the entire Edo Castle was crying.

Amidst the earth-shattering cries, the Tiger Army soldiers aimed their rifles at Emperor Shaoren's head.

Shaoren trembled and said, "If you don't kill me, I can make the Japanese surrender..."

The soldier of the Tiger Army snorted coldly and struck the trigger. only heard a snap, and the blood on Shaoren's head bloomed, and Shaoren fell to the execution ground without saying a word.

When the people kneeling on the execution ground saw this scene, their crying gradually stopped, and they looked at the emperor's corpse with wide eyes one by one, their eyes full of panic and horror.

Without the emperor, what would Japan be like in the future?

The GIs of the Tiger Army were eyeing the citizens of Japan, and were ready to prevent the agitated citizens from storming the wall again.

But after a long time, the citizens of Japan knelt outside the execution ground in a daze, and almost no one spoke loudly. They seemed to be mourning for the emperor, and they were thinking about how the Japanese should live after the emperor's demise.

Zhong Feng looked at the citizens of Japan and snorted coldly.

He arched his hand at Li Zhi and said: "Lord, the people of Japan are fierce and martial, and they are afraid of power but not virtue. In Korea, we may not be able to win the hearts and minds of the Japanese peasants, which is to lower the taxes of the Japanese peasants, and these Japanese people will not be grateful to us. ”

"The only way is to suppress, to kill. Only by killing enough people will the people of this province understand that it is impossible for Japan to be restored, and they must accept the rule of the prince. ”

Hearing Zhong Feng's words, Li Zhi nodded.

The Japanese nation, according to Li Zhi's understanding, is a nation that only worships the strong. The Ming Dynasty treated Japan well, and gave Japan a rich return on tributary trade, but in exchange for the harassment of the Japanese and the Wanli Korean War. The Tang Dynasty defeated Japan at the mouth of the Baijiang River, but Japan always worshiped the Tang Dynasty, and even worshipped the culture of the Tang Dynasty as a national culture.

The only way to suppress this nation is to make him understand that you are stronger than him.

After thinking about it, Li Zhi said: "Hang the corpses of those gangsters who stormed the execution ground on the streets of Japan, so that the citizens of Japan can understand the fate of challenging our order." ”
