Chapter 337: Jinyang Public Sacrifice
At the beginning of June of the fourth year of Jianxing, after dealing with post-war matters, Wei Shuo commanded the main force of the Liaodong Army, and at the same time escorted a large number of Xiongnu nobles such as Liu Cong, Liu Yao, Hu Yanyu, Liu Jing, Hu Yanyan, and Bu Yu to return to Jinyang in the north.
Except for the fear that Liu Cong would get some preferential treatment on the way to death, the rest of the Hu Lu were like prisoners, driven by the strong drive of the Liaodong army, and staggered towards Jinyang on foot.
Even Liu Cong didn't expect that he would be an emperor, not only did he not get any preferential treatment, but he was insulted by the Liaodong Army in every way because of this. The concubines of the harem of the Han Kingdom who were not from the Jin Dynasty were punished by Wei Shuo as official prostitutes in front of all the Xiongnu nobles, and they were to be ridden by 10,000 people in the future, and he was embarrassed to his grandmother's house!
finally knew what retribution was, Liu Cong secretly regretted it! When he insulted Emperor Jin Huai in every way, he never thought that he would suffer the same humiliation one day. It's a pity that it's useless for him to regret it, since he was captured, Liu Cong's fate has been doomed.
Someone once told Wei Shuo that Liu Cong and Liu Yao had been princes and should be given some preferential treatment, but unfortunately Wei Shuo scoffed at this.
"It's just a thief chieftain, taking advantage of the fact that I have no monkey in Huaxia to crown the crown, what qualifications do you have to call the prince in vain?"
On the eighth day of the sixth month, on the second day of Wei Shuo's arrival in Jinyang, he informed the Quartet in the name of General Zhenbei and Youzhou Mu that he would hold a public sacrifice in Jinyang for the people of the Central Plains who died in the Yongjia Rebellion, and about 200,000 Huns would become living sacrifices!
When the news came out, the world shook!
This is the second public execution of Hu people in Liaodong since the slaughter of Hu in Jicheng, and the number of people is far greater than the first.
Everyone in the world was frightened by Wei Shuo's ruthless methods, and the Hu people everywhere were even more frightened, and they no longer dared to raise the slightest idea of resistance.
On the day of the public memorial day, tens of thousands of people came to watch the ceremony, and countless people who were ruined by the Hu people gathered under the ruined Jinyang City. They want to see with their own eyes the retribution of the Hu people. The heavens also seemed to feel this grievance, and it began to rain lightly.
Under the majestic monument, there are sacrifices, including Liu Cong, Liu Yao, Liu Jing and other Xiongnu nobles!
Except for Liu Cong and Liu Yao, who were still able to maintain their composure, most of the rest of the Xiongnu nobles were paralyzed in fright, and Liu Jing had already lost the arrogance of driving the Jin people into the Yellow River. All that was left was a pale face, and his mouth trembled and begged for mercy.
Wei Shuo stood on the high platform with a cold expression, and all the Hu people who were swept by his gaze were so frightened that they lowered their heads, pretending to be submissive, and at the same time showed a flattering look on their faces, for fear of provoking General Zhenbei.
"Hao Hao I China, since the Yan and Huang Emperors set up education, ritual music, Lang China, etiquette and righteousness. It is very different from the four provinces, and it is called the country of summer. Our ancestors, the ragged road, to enlighten the mountains and forests, the internal cultivation of virtue and politics, the external imperial Yidi, is the **** of the vast soup soup of Chinese civilization. ”
"However, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Chinese civilization has lasted for thousands of years. The calamity has not yet ceased. There is Yao Shunyu soup, and there is also Xia Ji Shang; There are three generations of rule. There are also polite collapses; There are hundreds of sages, and there are also thousands of horses. The rule of Wenjing, the martial arts of the Han Dynasty, the prosperity of Guangwu and the subsequent white bone road in the late Han Dynasty have no rooster crow. ”
"Since Yongjia, the Central Plains has been in turmoil, and Hu Lu regards my China as fish and meat. Plus the insults are innumerable. However, in terms of events, it is more than the Luoyang Rebellion in the fifth year of Yongjia. Tens of thousands of people were brutally tortured and killed, women, children, old and children, and almost no one was spared, except for those who escaped by chance. What the Huns did. It's really a trip for beasts, tigers and wolves! ”
"As a member of the Chinese lineage, how can you sit back and watch Hu Lu bully my people and harm my subjects? Today, Liaodong Fengtian raised his army, killed Hu Lu, and pursued the culprit. Hereby I warn Hu Lu, whoever kills my Jin people, the Liaodong Army will not let go of one when they chase to the ends of the earth! ”
"Today, I wait for a moment of silence in front of the monument, in my own heart, not only to mourn the compatriots who were killed, but also to remember the misfortune they suffered. At the same time, we also want us to remember history and not repeat the mistakes of the past. ”
"Come on, bring up the bones of the thief chief Liu Yuan!"
No one expected that at the beginning of the public memorial event, Wei Shuo would talk about the dead Liu Yuan first, and even Li Ju and Guo Yu, who came to watch the ceremony, were stunned.
After a while, when Liu Yuan's skeleton was lifted up, many people couldn't bear to look at this scene, including some Jin people. The ancients always believed that the dead are great, and as long as a person is dead, basically no one will hold on to the past. This kind of digging up people's ancestral graves is rarely done except for Yidi's generation.
It's a pity that Wei Shuo didn't care about this at all, he still had people dig up Liu Yuan's grave and dissect his body!
"The thief chieftain Liu Yuan, Liu Cong, Liu Yao, father and son are all the culprits of Luoyang's trouble, and today they will all be retaliated against by my Liaodong! Someone first crushed Liu Yuan's bones and scattered ashes, so that he would never be able to live forever! Then pull Liu Cong, Liu Yao, Liu Jing and other Xiongnu nobles to the altar and be tortured alive, and they will never be allowed to die without enough slashes! ”
As soon as Wei Shuo's words fell, Liu Cong, Liu Yao, and others, who were still very calm just now, suddenly turned pale with fright, and Liu Jing even rolled his eyes and fainted in fright.
After a while, the terrible howls of Liu Cong and Liu Yao sounded on the altar, and the leaders of Diqiang who were watching the ceremony were already frightened at this time, and at the same time they were also happy.
When Hu Yanmo saw Hu Yan Yan, Hu Yan Yu and other Xiongnu nobles who were tortured on the altar, he couldn't help but burst into tears. No one expected that the Xiongnu had risen since Liu Yuan founded the country, but it was only eight or nine years old, and it collapsed in one day.
After disposing of Liu Cong, Liu Yao and other nobles, the remaining nearly 200,000 Huns were killed by the Liaodong military pit!
If it is said that Liu Cong made the Hu nobles feel cold, then the killing of 200,000 Huns made all the Hu people feel cold from the bottom of their hearts. Wei Shuo's ruthlessness was far beyond everyone's expectations.
After disposing of all the Hulu, Wei Shuo stood on the high platform, looked at the crowd standing under the stage, and said loudly: "This is the second time I have participated in such a ceremony, and from the bottom of my heart, I don't like to participate in such a ceremony, because it means that another Jin Min will be harmed by Hulu!" ”
"Therefore, as long as Hu Lu does not stop harming the Jin people, I think this kind of ritual will not be extinct for a day! The Liaodong Army will not stop fighting, please tell me loudly: Are you afraid of war? ”
The soldiers of the Liaodong Army below were stunned for a moment, and then roared angrily: "Don't be afraid! ”
Wei Shuo stretched out his hands to signal silence, and said sonorously: "Have you seen what happened to Liu Cong and Liu Yao on the stage?" This is a warning to the barbarians of the Quartet! This is the end of being an enemy of our Huaxia. ”
"In the name of the Liaodong Army, it is reported to the Quartet: Six Yi inside and outside, those who dare to call themselves Huns will be killed!"
"Drive out the Hulu and return my rivers and mountains!" The scene was full of cheers, and under the leadership of Wei Shuo, the sky burst into a cracked slogan!
Since the outbreak of the Battle of Mergezhou, it has been closely watched by various forces, and even Jiangdong has frequently inquired about news related to the Battle of Mergezhou. When the news of Liu Cong's heading reached Jiangdong, Sima Rui's mood was more complicated.
As a vassal king of the Great Jin Dynasty, Liaodong wiped out the Huns and avenged the Sima family, he should at least be happy if he is honored. However, when he thought of the land of Sanzhou under Wei Shuo's rule, millions of people, and the strong Liaodong Army, Sima Rui felt a chill.
The stronger Liaodong is, the greater the chance of seizing the Jin Dynasty in the future. Just like Cao Wei and the Han Dynasty back then, when the Liaodong separatist forces came to that point, there was no need for Wei Shuo to come forward, and some people took the initiative to wave the flag and shout for it.
With the end of the war of annexing states, coupled with the Jinyang public sacrifice to the people of Luoyang, Wei Shuo's prestige in the Great Jin Dynasty is getting higher and higher, and many people with lofty ideals no longer regard Jiangzuo under Sima Rui's rule as a refuge object, but more and more people are optimistic about the future of Liaodong.
And what frightened Sima Rui even more was that some northern families had already sided with Wei Shuo, which worried him more than Liaodong's defeat of the Hu people. He himself relies on the family to make things happen, how can he not know the energy of the family?
Liaodong has always been unfavored by the family before, and Sima Rui was excited about it, but now with a large number of top families such as Hedong Pei's family, Taiyuan Wang's family, Bohai Gao's family, Yanguo Liu's family, Fanyang Lu's family, and Jingzhaowei's family standing on the side of Liaodong, he suddenly realized that Liaodong really threatened the safety of the Sima family's Jiangshan Sheji.
With the destruction of the Xiongnu and the further weakening of Hulu's power, Sima Rui believed that Liaodong had officially replaced Hulu as the number one threat to Jiangzuo, and his future opponent would no longer be Hulu, but Liaodong Weishuo. (To be continued.) )
