After Hong Chengchou came to Yongning, he first met with the governor Zhu Xieyuan, announced the emperor's secret decree, and then exchanged views with Qin Liangyu and Lu Qin, borrowed some white pole soldiers and guards, and began to work.

He first screened the imprisoned Tusi and their leaders, reported and exposed each other, and then gathered together those who were forced to join the rebellion, and clearly told them that if they wanted to go home, they had to let the family pay for their crimes. Of course, the amount of ransom paid varied depending on how long they had been in the rebels and how much they had committed.

As for the toasts or leaders who take the initiative to surrender to Cheng or secretly communicate with the official army, they will be rewarded, and they will also be rewarded according to the time of surrender. The last diehards announced that they would be beheaded together at noon tomorrow, and all the toasts and leaders were required to be present to watch.

On this day, a large platform was erected on the widest street in Yongning, and dozens of Guards infantry stood around the platform, all of which were loaded with bullets, and the room next to the platform and both ends of the street were full of infantry, in case someone took the opportunity to cause trouble.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Hong Chengchou first read out the holy decree: "The emperor's edict said: Yongning Xuanfu Si is a thief Chongming, does not think about the emperor's grace, kills the officials of the Celestial Empire in vain, captures Chongqing, and fights against the heavenly soldiers." You and others help to abuse, insult our border people, and kill our border soldiers. Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the soldiers and civilians everywhere are specially instructed to behead those who participate in the rebellion of luxury thieves, raze their three tribes, and confiscate their family property. Chin this. ”

After the murderous decree was announced, Hong Chengchou ordered to be beheaded, and every time ten people were brought to the stage, the executioner raised his knife and fell, and the heads flew into the sky, and then landed on the wooden plank, and after rolling a few times, he finally stood still, and his eyes were open to the extreme, as if he was expressing his remorse or unwillingness.

After ten people are killed, ten people will come up. More than 1,000 people were killed for more than an hour, and it took a few executioners to finish the killing. The strong smell of blood filled the streets, and the toasts watching the ceremony next to the stage turned pale when they saw it, some of them were dripping with feces and urine, and some were so frightened that they fainted. Even Lu Qin, who has always advocated killing, couldn't bear to look at it anymore, only Hong Chengchou's face was as usual, and he tasted the local tea. After the others were killed, he looked at the toasts with a gloomy face and said, "You should take this as a warning." With that, he turned and left.

A few days later, Hong Chengchou found out the situation of the Ming officials exploiting the Tusi soldiers, he had served in the criminal department for many years, this kind of thing should not be too simple for him, and then according to the degree of the officials' behavior, they were given different punishments such as beheading, imprisonment, and raiding. It was still on the big platform a few days ago that a group of officials were killed, and those officials who accompanied the killing behaved more unbearable than Tusi, almost incontinent. And the natives who watched were shouting loudly.

Then Zhu Xieyuan decreed: abolish the Yongning Xuanfu Division, establish a provincial government in Yongning, and appoint Hong Chengchou as the prefect of Yongning. These two killings, the first one frightened the natives, and the second one brought out the hearts of the natives, which made the hearts of the people in Yongning quickly settle down, and the process of Zhu Xieyuan sending the officials again was very smooth. It is believed that under Hong Chengchou's bloody methods, the officials should not dare to provoke the local people anymore, and a large number of Tusi and their leaders were killed, which not only made the local people unable to organize, but also made the local people talk about the prefect's color change, and they did not dare to move.

In his recital to the emperor, Lu Qin greatly praised Hong Chengchou, and one sentence was written: "The minister thinks that when it comes to decisiveness, only Sun Chuanting can compare with it." After reading it, Colonel Zhu read this sentence to the generals of the Guards, and sneered: "Doesn't it mean that the two of them are butchers!" Lu Qin said as if he was very merciful, he killed many more people than Sun Hong and the two combined, there is actually no difference between killing people on the battlefield and killing people on the execution ground, killing people is just a means, and it is enough to achieve the goal, you must remember this after you are on the battlefield, and don't take the means as an end. All the generals nodded yes.

At this time, the situation in Guizhou took a sharp turn for the worse, and the Guizhou Xuanwei Division, together with Zhi'an Bangyan, and Song Wanhua, the Shuidong Tusi, united with the Tusi from all over Guizhou, led 100,000 troops, and surrounded Guiyang in February.

After Zhu Youxiao got the news, he ordered Wang Sanshan, the governor of Guizhou, to go to relieve the siege, and ordered Qin Liangyu and Lu Qin Zhou Yuji to rescue Guizhou together.

Qin Liangyu led 6,000 white pole soldiers, plus more than 7,000 guards (including the baggage battalion), and drove to Guizhou.

Within a day, the army marched to Chishuiwei, and at this time, Wang Sanshan was still mobilizing troops and horses in Yuanzhou and coming to the town. Chishuiwei's Baisa Institute was still occupied by the remnants of the luxury army at this time, and after everyone discussed, they decided to pull out the nail first and then go to Guiyang, and clean up their back roads first.

Bai Sasuo is located on a mountain peak, three sides are full of cliffs, only in front of a small road to the peak, hard attack is obviously difficult, the important thing is that the cannon can not be dragged up, there will be a lot of casualties, so Zhou Yuji first took a few white pole soldiers who know Yi to persuade to surrender, but the white pole soldiers spoke, and a rain of arrows above shot down, fortunately Zhou Yuji their armor is good, so only heard the sound of arrows hitting the armor, but no one was injured.

Seeing that the arrows could not shoot them, the extravagant army began to smash them with stones, and several people retreated in embarrassment. Zhou Yuji said hatefully: "It's useless, let's change to the second plan." “

Zhou Yuji ordered a division of infantry to go up, stopped where the stone could be smashed, lined up in two rows, and began to shoot at the wall with flintlock firearms.

So a boring shooting game began on both sides, and Zhou Yuji kept changing people, seemingly wanting to capture this place with a firecracker, and mockery continued to sound inside the city wall.

After the stalemate between the two sides for almost an hour, a large amount of smoke suddenly rose from the peak, and the infantry cheered in unison, and the extravagant soldiers did not know why, and they looked behind to know that the backyard was on fire, and they wanted to rush up, but they didn't dare to give up here, and they didn't dare to rush up, and their families were on top again, but soon their hesitation was unnecessary, because a large number of white pole soldiers began to rush down from above. Zhou Yuji came to the emperor this time and asked him to bring 3,000 pieces of iron scale armor, and rewarded them to the white pole soldiers, who put on the iron scale armor, which was really like a tiger with wings, and it was killed from top to bottom, so he quickly killed the luxury soldiers and fled in all directions.

Where can you escape to such a big place? Therefore, a large number of luxury troops had to kneel down and ask for surrender, and soon the white pole soldiers killed the city wall, opened the door, and after the guards entered, they could no longer see the resisting luxury army.
