In mid-June, Yang Lin, the governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu, came to the CD with his guards to meet the new governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Gansu, with various moods, some apprehensive and some disgruntled.

Yuan Tao and others came to the governor's yamen with a nervous mood, and now the power of the volunteers is in full swing, and now there is an edict from the emperor, so everyone dare not come.

As analyzed by Fan Yixuan, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Yang Lin is a generation of powerful ministers, and his desire for power is very high.

But in fact, it was another scene, Yang Lin didn't even take out the posture of a governor, even to Yuan Tao, the second leader of the former local tyrant, he said politely: "General Yuan, we had a festival in the past, but I have always said that this is an internal contradiction of the nation, and now that the Tartars are invading, I hope we can work together to resist the Tartars."

Seeing that the other party didn't take advantage of the question to play and take it down on the spot, Yuan Tao looked quite sincerely frightened, knelt down and nodded yes again and again.

To Zeng Yingyi's sons Li Zhanchun and Yu Dahai, Yang Lin said with sadness: "The two generals, although the old general Zeng Ying was killed mainly because he underestimated the enemy, I also bear some responsibility.

Wanwang hopes that the two generals will mourn and change, and everyone will fight against the Tartars together and complete the unfinished business of the old general Zeng Ying. ”

Li Zhanchun and Yu Dahai were still nervous at first, but now seeing that the other party looked so polite, they said abruptly: "The Governor defeated Haoge's 100,000 army with a flick of his fingers, which is gratifying." ”

Yang Lin was quite unkind to Li Gande, the governor of northern Sichuan, who always wanted to take office in Sichuan on the grounds of being appointed by the imperial court.

Yang Lin was not polite to Li Gande at all, and said with a glance: "Governor Li, now that the Tartars are invading and the rogues are making trouble, it is the place to employ people, why should you worry about having no real power to stretch your ambitions?"

As long as you are down-to-earth, our Ming army always needs a governor to capture a province. As long as everyone can work together, everyone can pay homage to the prime minister at that time. ”

Li Gande shook his head again and again and said, "The adult is young, and his words are very good."

My lord, if you treat us as confidants, what will we say about you? ”

Yang Lin said with a smile: "Governor Li, you originally committed a crime during the Longwu Dynasty that day, and you were demoted by the first emperor to serve under Wang Yingxiong, the governor of the four provinces.

You should reform your ways, win the trust of your colleagues, and remember that the most important thing for people is to do things, not to fight for power and profit. ”

Li Gande's face was pale, although he wanted to attack, but he was intimidated by the other party's power, he just smiled and didn't say anything anymore.

The governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Fan Yixuan, arrived at the end, Yang Lin smiled, greeted the door, and said with a smile: "Fan Du came to the CD without any difficulty), it is really Yang's sin, I hope we can work together to restore the Ming Dynasty."

Fan Yixuan said lightly: "Yang Lin, oh, Governor Yang, you recruited us this time, won't it be these two sentences, tell me, what do you want to do?" ”

The Volunteers have sprung up and have the potential to surpass everyone, but since ancient times, China has paid attention to seniority, and many veterans in Sichuan often put on music and did not listen to orders at all.

It seems that it is time to punish these arrogant soldiers, otherwise he will be the governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu in name only.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Yang Lin waved his hand, and in the sound of music and drums, Zhu Zhilu, the king of Fushun, Zhu Zhijun, the king of Deyang, Zhu Pingyu, the eldest son of the king of Fushun, and Zhu Eyan, the county lord, and other clansmen of the Ming Shu clan came down to the hall under the escort of the entourage.

Everyone bowed down one after another, and Fan Yi, the governor of Yungui next to him, sweated like rain, and asked softly: "Master Hou, you, which one are you?" ”

Looking sideways at the other party, Yang Lin felt funny in his heart, in the past few months, the world has been crazy and is ready to support a clan of the Shu Domain as the supervisor of the country and act in charge of state affairs.

It seems that Fan Yixuan and the others are really serious, otherwise, Zhu Zhilu, the king of Fushun, Zhu Zhijun, the king of Deyang, and others have just appeared, why do they seem so nervous.

Yang Lin smiled faintly and did not answer, and after the king of Fushun and King Deyang and the other clansmen of the Shu clan sat down, he stood up and said: "Colleagues, this governor has invited the princes of Fushun and King Deyang to come to watch the ceremony, because the matter is really serious.

Zhang Xianzhong entered Sichuan, and more than 10,000 Shu clan relatives were slaughtered, and its brutality was unprecedented.

If Zhang Xianzhong is just brutal, then the Manchu Qing Dynasty is absolutely the same as a beast, just looking for a reason to slaughter the first emperor Zhu Youxiang, King Jian Guolu, Prince Sizong, and more than ten princes of the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, thanks to the protection of the gods, we can recover our homeland and expel the Tartars from Sichuan Province. ”

Although everyone is intrigued on weekdays, after all, they are all Ming courtiers, and the blood in their chests is no worse than others.

Put out the guard of honor, the gongs and drums in front of the road, everyone sat in a sedan chair carriage, rode a war horse, and the group came to Qingyang Palace.

When the Liukou entered Sichuan, some students colluded with foreign vassals, and Zhang Xianzhong was angry and killed nearly 100 Sichuan students.

After the soldiers entered the CD), Yang Lin asked people to build a martyr's shrine outside the Qingyang Palace, enshrined the heroes from all over the country who were killed by the Liukou and the Tartars, and enshrined the martyrs of the volunteers.

There is not much difference between the martyrs' shrine and the one built in Shunqing, according to Yang Lin's plan, in the middle of the main hall is the martyr's hall, the top is Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Hongguang, Emperor Longwu, Emperor Shaowu several emperors, everyone carves with a big tablet, and the handwriting is clearly visible in the distance.

In the middle are Chongzhen's three sons, King Rui, King Shu, Chen Shiqi, Wang Yingxiong, Zeng Ying, Gan Liangchen and other princes, governors, and officials above the general army.

At the bottom is the tablet of Yan Yingyuan and other righteous people from all over the world, as well as the common tablet of the number of people who died in the various atrocities of the Liukou Tartars.

On both sides of the main hall are countless small halls, on one side enshrine the tablets of the soldiers who died in battle, and on the other side, Yang Lin was originally going to leave it to other Sichuan generals, but except for the names of more than 1,000 soldiers provided by Yang Zhanbu, there were few other departments.

Due to the short time, the ancestral hall was only repaired to a general appearance, Yang Lin did not pay attention to everyone's eyes at all, and under the loud roll call of the singers, he knelt down to everyone in front of each hall with incense.

Everyone knocked on the ground with their heads, and after carefully pouring incense, they offered it, although they didn't think so in their hearts, but the dead were the greatest.

But what made all the volunteers present indignant was that Li Zhanchun, Yu Dahai, Yuan Tao, Wu Dading and others did not worship the fallen volunteers at all, and Yang Lin suppressed his inner anger and did not attack on the spot.

Fan Yixuan and others sighed, originally thinking that the volunteers were invincible, but seeing the long list of victims, some regiments were close to 1,000 people, which couldn't help but shock everyone.

After some tedious memorials, before noon, everyone returned to the governor's yamen, and Li Gande mocked: "Your Excellency, you summoned everyone to the provincial capital this time, won't you just let everyone attend the inauguration ceremony, and won't you let everyone participate in the Martyrs' Shrine?" ”

Yang Lin squeezed out a smile on his face and said, "Hehe, Governor Li, don't be anxious, I invited everyone to come this time, just to hope that everyone will come to see this governor kill." ”

Everyone was shocked, and Yuan Tao and the others even pressed the handle of the knife with both hands and wanted to attack.

Fan Yixuan was so shocked that he left his seat and asked: "Governor Yang, Governor Yang, you have repeatedly stated in your personal letters to the old man that you absolutely guarantee the safety of the generals, you are the governor, you can't go back on your word, let's talk about it?"

Governor Yang, you, you must be tolerant. ”

Yang Lin laughed and looked at everyone: "Everyone, what's wrong?"

I, Yang Lin, have always been a person who keeps my promises, how can I go back on my word?

Let's take a look at the person I'm going to kill first, if there is someone who is against it, I just won't kill it, let's talk about it, can you? ”

Yang Zhan looked at Yang Lin quite nervously and said: "Ruzhen, you have become the governor of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu for your outstanding military achievements, but you are young after all, some people just complain and listen, don't kill because of this." ”

Yin Chengqi flashed out from the side, looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, don't panic, everyone, everyone is wrong to blame the Governor."

This time, the Tatars entered the river more hateful than the Liukou, more brutal than the Mongols, burned many cities along the way, and killed hundreds of thousands of people in my Ming Dynasty.

Since we joined the army and were killed by Tartars on the battlefield, this is to blame for our poor learning, the crockpot does not leave the well to break, and the general will inevitably die in battle, we will not blame that.

But the Tartars slaughtered our fellow villagers village by village, burned down our villagers' houses, and did not spare even the women, children, the old and the weak.

Let's talk about it, Luo Luohun, the king of Yanxi County, and the captured generals, do you think they should be killed? ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Fan Yixuan wiped the beads of sweat from his face again and again and said: "Governor Yang, you scare the old man, these people are extremely evil, of course they should be killed."

Not only should it be killed, but it should also be executed by Ling Chi, everyone knows that the Barbarian Qing deceived more than a dozen princes of our Ming Dynasty to Beijing and slandered them for rebellion, and all of them were executed by Ling Chi.

The first emperor (Chongzhen) prince was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was born in the emperor's family, what is the crime?

Blood debt and blood repayment, everyone said, right? People like Luo Luohun should be put to death in order to comfort our compatriots who died. ”

Li Gande shook his head and said, "Governor Yang, there has never been such a precedent for the capture of the prince in the Barbarian Qing Dynasty, if possible, we can exchange a little territory with them." ”

Yang Zhan said fiercely: "What benefits in exchange, what territory in exchange?" We can take back the territory, and this kind of person will be executed for a long time. ”

When everyone heard this, they also shouted loudly.

Yang Lin signaled everyone to be quiet and said: "Everyone, don't tell you that the envoy of the Barbarian Qing Duo Luo Belenikan is still in the CD), claiming that he can exchange Hanzhong for Luo Luohun. ”

Immediately clapped his hands, and a Tartar with a money rat tail walked in in three steps and two steps, looked at Yang Lin and said: "Governor Yang, although you are a hero, I have 100,000 Manchurian Eight Banners, 100,000 Mongolian Eight Banners in the Qing Dynasty, and I have 500,000 Green Battalion soldiers and horses in the Qing Dynasty. ”

The hall was full of scolding, and Fan Yixuan also looked at Yang Lin with some hesitation and said, "Governor Yang, won't you really be moved?" ”

Yang Lin laughed and said, "Oh, you Tartar can still parrot two sentences of Chinese, not bad."

But ask the generals around me, and ask them if they agree with me to let you go back to the king of Yanxi County? You ask the common people of my Han Dynasty who were slaughtered by you, do they agree with me to let you go back to the king of Yanxi County?

Listen, none of the people present agreed to it.

Since you can execute all the princes who surrendered to us, left and right, tie up this leader for me and trap him in the execution ground, and see how Lao Tzu executes Luo Luohun and the captured generals together. ”

Li Gande was shocked and arched his hand: "Governor Yang, the two countries will not fight each other, although the Tartars are hateful, can we?"

Yang Lin said with a smile: "Governor Li reminded me, I know this, I just let this messenger know the anger of our Han people, and let him send Luo Luohun a game, everyone, everyone follow me to the front of the vegetable market." ”

At this time, the entrance of the vegetable market has been crowded with people, Luo Luohun and others were escorted by the prisoner car and were rushing to the entrance of the vegetable market, the surrounding people heard that the enemy chieftain who was more ferocious than the tiger and the wolf was going to be beheaded today, everyone flocked to it, along the way the people kept throwing all kinds of sundries, and some of them cried bitterly when they remembered the relatives who died, and everyone in the distance felt the sadness.

Yang Lin pulled Fan Yixuan, who was trembling all over, to sit on the top, looked at Luo Luohun and the others who were escorted up, and said with a trembling voice: "Generals, many of you have relatives who have been killed by Tartars, and if you want to avenge the death of your relatives, you can go up and greet your legs and slap you twice, but remember not to beat him to death, so it will cheapen him." ”

Hearing Yang Lin say this, these generals also disregarded their personal image, shouted and rushed forward, after a burst of wailing, after a burst of bitter crying, they saw Luo Luohun and others with blue noses and swollen faces, and even their rat tails and full beards were all pulled out.

Listening to Luo Luohun and the others who were wailing, Yang Lin laughed and said: "Everyone, everyone has always said that the rat's tail is not good like this, but I don't see it at all, everyone see, there is only a handful of hair on the head of the Tartar, if you want to pluck out his hair, so that they will not suffer."

Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that the Tartar is really prescient, and this rat tail is also useful. ”

When they heard this, they burst into laughter.

Yang Lin ordered all these people to be beheaded for public display.

Everyone was shocked, Fan Yixuan shook his head and said: "Governor Yang, the Tartars are fierce and cruel, and all of our Ming royal family are executed by Ling Chi, Luo Luohun and others are extremely evil, and Ling Chi will be executed no matter what." ”

Yang Lin said with a smile: "Governor Fan, the barbarian Qing executed more than ten royal families who had surrendered to my Ming Dynasty on trumped-up charges, treacherous and violent, and infamous, causing the indignation of gods and men.

The Tartars are extremely evil, and we use justice to deal with the barbaric and cruel Tartars, but the means are the same, so isn't it a means to reduce us to the Tartars?

Zuo Chuan "The Twelfth Year of Xuan Gong" Seven Xuan Gong once talked about martial virtues: "Fu Wu, prohibiting violence, fighting soldiers, protecting the great, determining merit, reassuring the people, and the people, and those who are rich in wealth are also (with modern significance)." That is to say, the most important thing for the army is to stop violence, prevent war, ensure strength, consolidate victory, stabilize society, unite the people and develop production.

The reason why I rose up in the midst of the defeated army and led the volunteers to fight against the rogues and the Tartars was just to stop the atrocities of the Rogues and Tartars and prevent the Rogues and Tartars from threatening us with war. Although I, Yang Lin, am just a small talent, I still have to protect the peace of the people. ”

Despite this, everyone is still quite dissatisfied, many people still insist that the Tartars have done a lot of evil, Luo Luohun and others led their troops into Sichuan to kill people and set fires, slaughter the people, even the old and weak, women and children, and their crimes are indignant.

The people of central Sichuan have a deep hatred with the Tartars in many places, and everyone thinks of the relatives who were killed, and one by one they kneel down and plead to Luo Luohun and others with a thousand knives.

Although he knew that Luo Luohun and others had committed heinous crimes, they didn't kill people too much, and they still had to have a bottom line in life.

Under the scorching sun, everyone finished the murderous deed in the afternoon when the sun set, returned to the hall, and returned to the seat after eating.
