Chapter 149: Shaving Order - Jiangyin Sanyi

In the first year of Longwu (A.D. 1645), on the twentieth day of June of the lunar calendar, Fang Heng of the puppet Zhixian County got the order of shaving his hair from the barbarian Qing, which provoked the people to revolt, and the people killed the pseudo-Zhixian County, and elected the two wardens before and after Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingyu as the leader, with the banner of "Daming Zhongxing", claiming to be the righteous people of Jiangyin to officially oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.

Hearing the rebellion of the people of Jiangyin, first Zong Hao, the prefect of Changzhou Prefecture in the Qing Dynasty, sent 300 soldiers to suppress it, then surrendered to Liu Liangzuo to surround Jiangyin City with heavy troops, and then the barbarian Qing Gongshun King Kong Youde led the heavy troops to attack, and finally Duoduo sent Bellebolo and Bellenikan to lead the Manchurian soldiers to carry red-coated cannons to attack the city. (Boluo and Nikan were later made princes by the Barbarian Qing)

But even so, Jiangyin, led by Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingyu, was unyielding and insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty for 81 days, dealing a heavy blow to the Manqing.

Although thousands of miles away, but still shocked by the heroism of the Jiangyin Righteous Army, in order to boost morale and be vigilant to the people, Yang Xuan shad more than ten prisoners into the money rat tail of the Qing Dynasty, and then paraded through the streets to publicize the **** of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

It needs to be explained that the kind of money rat tail of the Barbarian Qing Dynasty, probably their descendants also feel very unsightly, and in all Qing court dramas, it has never been truly shown in front of everyone.

In the former Qing Dynasty, the Manqing left a rat's tail, that is, the hair was almost shaved, leaving only a small handful, only the size of a copper coin hole, so it was calculated. Even if handsome guys like Zhang Guoli and Zhang Tielin shaved their heads and walked on the road and put them on TV, they would be considered a monster.

After the occupation of China by the Barbarian Qing Dynasty, the money rat tail, which was boasted as the representative of the Barbarian Qing Dynasty, gradually changed, first the yin and yang heads, that is, only a small part of the shaved. Just like the palace, these Qing palace dramas, sometimes the male protagonist has this kind of yin and yang head.

In the end, it becomes the pig tail that we are very familiar with.

Suffice it to say, rat tails are really ugly and can't be overstated.

A death row inmate angrily pounced on the barber who cut his hair, and wanted to die with him.

And the other, who snatched the saber of a servant, actually wiped his neck and committed suicide in the stunned eyes of everyone.

And this also spread quickly as a scandal, seeing these death row prisoners with money rat tail heads, everyone talked about it, in addition to the hatred of the Manchu Qing, some squires actually denounced Yang Xuan.

Although these death row prisoners deserve to be punished for their crimes, they are treated as human beings and ghosts, and even if they die, they will go to hell.

Some people say that Yang Xuan is so inhumane that he can't see his parents and ancestors after his death.

Everyone was aggrieved for these prisoners, and in the end, Yang Xuan had to make an agreement with the more than ten death row prisoners:

As long as they are willing to act as the image spokesperson of the money rat tail hairstyle, they will be escorted by the officials to parade and visit various places, so as to tell the people everywhere that the Barbarian Qing not only wants to seize our land, but also destroys the culture of our Han nation, and the Barbarian Qing will also kill our Han people.

The prison was both soft and hard, and it was only in the end that the death row inmates agreed.

Even so, it was said that people scolded Yang Xuan behind their backs, and they didn't kill people too much, so insulting the other party was really undeserved.

On this day, the money rat tail parade through the street, the front two officials sounded the gong to open the way, and saw these death row prisoners who were shaved into the tail of the money rat pass by, it was simply a sea of people, everyone saw the prisoner who was shaved into the tail of the money rat, the prefect shaved people into the tail of the money rat, not only shamed the ancestors, but after death, how could they meet the ancestors underground.

Some scolded these people, if they hit and died, forget it, killing the head is just a target with a thick bowl mouth, such a shameful one, it is better to die.

And when the people saw this kind of ugly monster, many people threw all kinds of dirty animals on the prisoners, and everyone shouted that they would rather die than insult their ancestors like this ugly monster.

Yang Xuan was greatly inspired and decided to build a martyr's shrine on the West Mountain, engraved with the name of each war dead, the date of birth, the place of death, and the meritorious service made to pay tribute.

In November of this year, at the top of the West Mountain, the martyrs' shrine established for the Rui Wang, the Shu Wang, Shi Kefa, Chen Shiqi, Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu and other celebrities and ordinary soldiers who died in the Barbarian Qing Dynasty and died in the Liukou was officially opened.

At the foot of the mountain, a high platform has already been built, on which there are more than ten big drums, and several strong men are beating the big drum with their upper bodies.

Under the stage, more than 1,000 soldiers drawn from various departments lined up in a phalanx, and they were singing "China Will Not Die". This is modeled after the previous life "China Will Not Die", and its lyrics are:

China will not die, China will not die,

Look at the history of the national hero Yan Dian

China will not die, China will not die,

Look at the 100,000 people's army fighting in Jiangyin City

There are artillery fire on all sides, jackals on all sides,

I'd rather die than back down, and I'd rather die than surrender.

Our loyal souls are wandering and drifting in the siege,......

Hundreds of thousands of loyal souls have one heart, and the strong enemies of the Quartet dare not be it.

Our actions are magnificent, and our integrity is magnificent.

Rise up, brothers,

Hurry up to the battlefield and take Jiangyin City as an example.

China will not die, China will not die,

China will not die, China will not die......

It won't die, it won't die, it won't die

The drums are very majestic, the singing is very sad, the people who come to worship the martyrs' shrine are all in tears, under the guidance of the officials and soldiers, the squires and the people are guided to stand solemnly below.

Accompanied by songs such as "Three Disciplines and Eight Points to Pay Attention to", "Song of the Loyal and Righteous Army", "Loyal to the Country" and "China Will Not Die", accompanied by the sound of "eat the people's food and wear the people's clothes", love the country and the people...... , Yang Xuan took Qian Bangqi, Fan Wenguang, Zhao Sixuan and others to sit down on the stage.

It was the first to proclaim the "Regulations on the Pension of Martyrs", according to which the bereavement of the soldiers who died was given in accordance with the principle of four classes, namely fourth-class martyrs, third-class martyrs, second-class martyrs, and first-class martyrs.

All the war dead are posthumously recognized as fourth-class martyrs, and receive a pension of 20 taels of silver, if the higher the position and the greater the merit during their lifetime, the corresponding pension standard will be raised, and the highest first-class disadvantage pension amount is more than 100 taels of silver (equivalent to the income of a strong labor for five years).

In addition, in order to prevent the families of martyrs from using this money to sit on empty seats, it is stipulated that when the parents of the martyrs are alive and the children are still minors, a subsidy or exemption of one person's Ding Fu will be given every year, and 2 yuan of silver will be rewarded every year.

The implementation of the "Regulations on War Merit", in addition to the kind of meritorious service to kill the enemy in the past, in addition to the implementation of the war merit plan, the heroes on the battlefield were awarded different medals, divided into four levels of medals, respectively, iron Tic-tac-toe medal, bronze Tic-tac-toe medal, silver Tic-tac-toe medal, gold Tic-tac-toe medal, Yang Xuan with iron embryo casting, such as the shape of the tic-tac-toe, there are two words of loyalty and righteousness on it, the style is very exquisite.

This medal is very difficult to obtain, in the case of the Iron Tic Toe Medal, you can kill at least 4 enemies on the battlefield, have no bad hobbies, and are not punished in any way.

In this way, only 3 or 4 people in each brigade have won the Iron Tic Tac Medal, and some captains even admitted frankly that they can be directly promoted to squad leaders after obtaining the Iron Medal to lead more than ten people.

So far, there has been no winner of the Gold Tic-Tac-Toe Medal, and Yang Xuan personally awarded the Silver Tic-Tac-Toe Medal to six people, including Chen Yingzong, Fan Mingshan, Guo Chonglie, and Yao Zhijiao.

After the award of the medals, there is a ceremony to enter the ancestral hall, in which 108 monks recite the scriptures, and one by one the representatives put the spiritual tablets of the deceased soldiers into the ancestral hall to return to their places.

There are too many martyrs in the ancestral hall, a total of 2,000 people (no more than 1,000 people died in the battle, but Yang Xuan played the trick of posthumously recognizing and included all the leaders of the righteous army in other places in the Loyal Martyrs' Shrine to win the hearts of the people)

In order to highlight the solemnity of the ceremony and the orderly organization, the whole ceremony lasted for 2 hours, and Yang Xuan leaned forward under the scorching sun to show his respect for the martyrs.

After that, Yang Xuan took the lead in taking the oath that he must keep in mind the grand purpose of "eating the people's food, wearing the people's clothes, loving the country and the nation, serving the country loyally, expelling the Tartars and restoring China."

Listening to the oath, Qian Bangqi was slightly stunned, Yang Xuan kept saying what country and nation, why didn't there be a Ming Dynasty?

Was he negligent, or was it intentional?
