When the king of the east was pushed by the soldiers and walked from the side of the long street, the people who knelt down in the street were immediately silent.

Just a few days ago, the King of the East, undoubtedly the ruler of the city, was the gods who were so frightened that even in their dreams that they were silenced, and they were the most humble ants.

The tiger fell in Pingyang, and the aftermath still exists.

Seeing the East King walking by, most of the men and women kneeling hung their heads in fright.

Dongwang's brocade robe was torn and stained with muddy water, but he held his head high, not afraid, and sneered at the soldier's push.

Suddenly, with a "snap", a stone smashed into the face of the East King, and the East King was stunned to see that a ragged literati had jumped up and shouted: "Long-haired thief! You give my daddy back! His eyes were red, and he threw himself at the king of the east, but was stopped by the riflemen.

Someone took the lead, and several people who hated bandits saw that Dongwang's face was blue, his face was embarrassed, and his hair was scattered, and they suddenly realized that this was no longer the high-ranking God comrade before, but fell into the ninefold clouds and became a prisoner who was slaughtered by others.

Immediately, the stones and the cabbage and the soil were thrown at the East King, almost infected, and the people were furious, and while throwing the stones of the East King, they cursed and rushed to the side of the East King, and some called him to return his relatives' surnames, and some scolded the long-haired thief for not dying well, and hundreds or thousands of people suddenly seemed to have become hideous beasts, beasts that wanted to tear the East King to pieces.

Ye Zhao was stunned, and then sighed softly in his heart, alas, Chinese people are sometimes like this, these people don't necessarily hate long-haired thieves, but as soon as they are provoked, they immediately lose their minds, just like Yuan Chonghuan in Yanjing City back then, the people of the capital, can they really eat their flesh?

"Bang!" Lei, the commander of the Yulin Guards, fired his gun into the sky, and hundreds of guards, pro-soldiers, and riflemen pulled the bolts, and the murderous aura came to their faces, and the crazy people seemed to have been splashed with cold water, and they were so frightened that they retreated.

Lei Chong shouted in a deep voice: "The prince speaks! The state has national law, and the head of the rebel thief is punished by its own national law, and those who increase the punishment without permission will be punished for the same crime! ”

The people were stunned, you look at me, I look at you, at a loss, what's the matter, is it wrong to vent your hatred for the prince and for the long hair?

Ye Zhao looked at them, smiled lightly, and said in his heart This is the first lesson, and you still have to learn it slowly in the future, and your compatriots will slowly follow you and enter the palace of civilization after all.

It's a pleasure to think about. Regarding the reckless behavior of his compatriots, Ye Zhao's heart was full of kindness, just like looking at a child who had not grown up, wasn't the time limited?

got on the horse, arched his hands to the four sides, and the people immediately hurriedly knelt down, Ye Zhaolang said: "Fathers and fellow villagers, the pseudo-king is extremely evil, and he should be punished for his crimes, but who will punish him?" If you feel that the ruling is unfair, you can express your feelings at that time, this is your right, it is me, it is the right given to you by the imperial court, now you may not understand, but slowly you will understand. In Guangzhou, there are many channels for the people to express their feelings to me and the imperial court. ”

The people looked at each other, and it was true that they did not understand much, but everyone knew that it seemed that life in the future would be very different, and it seemed very exciting.

The big and small Ma faintly understood, and took the lead and bowed down.

"Lord Wangming!" , again and again.

Although it has become a common practice in the West to have war tribunals, such as the American Civil War, and the disputes between the United States and Britain in the Civil War are also adjudicated by international tribunals, for China, even this kind of formalistic war tribunal is obviously too advanced.

However, there is no doubt that the trial of the kings of Tianjing is the best way to popularize some of the founding spirit of the Southern Dynasty to the people, and it is the best channel to transmit some information.

It was Ye Zhao who ordered Li Jianchen to take the lead in setting up a special investigation committee a month ago to collect evidence of the kings' crimes and punish them according to law, although it was just a formality, how the kings dealt with it must be Ye Zhao's words, and there would be no trial at all, let alone a protracted investigation, I was afraid that in three or five or seven days, these bandits would be convicted one by one, but for China, this is already a huge progress, and in the south, it will make the people receive a very impressive "law popularization" education.

The East King was pushed in front of Ye Zhao, raised his head, and looked up at this powerful enemy who had been called by him as an "evil dragon" a few years ago.

Ye Zhao looked at the embarrassed middle-aged man in front of him, with an ordinary face and a medium figure, if he changed his robe, he was no different from an old farmer in the countryside, but this person stirred up the world, and in the name of his heavenly father, Hong Xiuquan was extremely jealous of him.

"Kill me!" Dongwang said lightly, and even, he was ready to be Ling Chi. This evil dragon finally entered Tianjing, and under his splendid face, like the harmony of auspicious groups, the king of the east inexplicably rose a little ashamed of himself.

Perhaps from the deepest part of his heart, he never thought that he would get this flowery country, facing the real ruler of this southern country, the commander of the army is strong and strong, and has hundreds of thousands of elite armor soldiers, in addition to hatred, he has a faint inferiority.

Ye Zhao nodded slightly: "Why is life happy, and death is not painful?" If you are free, you can write a few private prosecutions, don't look at me like this, I don't ask you to write a letter of surrender, even if you write a letter of surrender, you can't save your life. Thousands of years later, those historians and scribes will have a reference for today's history, and this dynasty will also leave detailed historical materials, hoping that you will tell the truth and not become a laughing stock for future generations. ”

The king of the east was stunned for a moment, this evil dragon entered Tianjing, without any smug and arrogant, just let people stop those foolish people to protect themselves It is already amazing, this remark is even more unheard of, thousands of years, history? It seems that I have never thought about this, let alone what to say.

At this time, he saw that the evil dragon waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately pushed him down, but the east king's heart was overturned and the sea was in chaos.

…… Shuiximen Lantern Lane is where the Holy Treasury of Heaven is located, and it is the first target of the Pingyuan Army after entering the city.

The second battalion of the third town is responsible for the main attack on Lantern Lane, the second battalion is the first fierce general under Han Jinchun, Song Qing is a native of Penglai, Shandong, at the age of thirty, the bandits started in chaos, and then went south from the army, stationed in the green camp in Jiangxi, and then his armed forces were defeated by the bandits, and joined the Pingyuan Army when he fled.

In the alley, it was simply a one-sided massacre, the bandits had already lost their morale, the red-headed people in the narrow alleys knelt down countless times, and the red turbans who fled in chaos were all stabbed to death by hundreds of bayonets in gray military uniforms, and the bayonet array composed of three hundred gray military uniforms was like a huge grinder, shattering all the resistance forces.

Seven or eight infantry squads composed of more than a dozen people climbed the wall and occupied the firing point, completely suppressing the firepower of the stronghold of the red-headed people who were still resisting.

Finally, on the bluestone wall of the mansion, several red turbans were suddenly thrown down, and someone inside shouted: "Don't shoot, let's kill the thief!" Pitch Ming! ”

Not only the treasury, but also in the city of Nanjing, groups of red turbans mutinied and surrendered, and on the shore of Mochou Lake, thousands of red turbans rebelled, throwing the brigade commander who killed the persuaders into the lake and letting them struggle and drown in the water.

Originally, when I saw the propaganda of the Southern Dynasty, I was already panicked, and then I saw that the official army did not kill and surrender after entering the city, coupled with the rout of all fronts, I heard that the king of the east was captured alive, where did the red-headed people still have fighting spirit?

When Ye Zhao arrived at Lantern Lane, the gunfire had already subsided, and under the stone lion steps, Song Qing knelt down to present the accounts of the Holy Treasury and the amount of silver they counted, but he was worried in his heart.

It is rumored that the treasure trove of bandits has countless treasures and is rich enough to rival the country, who knows that under the investigation, it will only be more than a million taels of silver, Song Qing's head buzzed at that time, although Han Shuai and Zhu Shuai rarely have mustard, but such a big event, who knows if it will be taken out and slandered in front of the prince, and the battalion under him will swallow the dead cat, "Swallow it privately?" Who deserves this crime? The battalion of soldiers was afraid that they would all be punished.

No wonder, Ha Shuai wants to give up the holy treasury to the people of this town, perhaps, he has thought of it a long time ago, and Ha Shuai, who is incompatible with Bao Shuai, is even more reluctant to get involved in this hot potato.

Kneeling straight, Song Qing said cautiously: "Does the prince want to enter the treasury to take a look?" The seven hundred and thirty-eight members of the little man were all here, and under the strict order of the little one, no one left half a step. ”

Ye Zhao smiled, in fact, he had long known that the legendary treasures were just a mirror, indeed, the Taiping army looted countless people's wealth, especially in Tianjing, the whole city implemented public ownership and rationing, and all the people's property was confiscated. In the early days of the Holy Treasury, coupled with the people's wealth looted along the way, there were indeed about 20 million taels of silver in the Tianjing Treasury on this day. But the kings were extravagant, and they raised their armies to buy arms, so it is strange that after all these years, there will still be silver left.

Glancing at Song Qing, Ye Zhao said: "Don't go and look at it, you, you don't have to be so cautious, the treasury is handed over to your camp, naturally you can trust you, your heart is not much bigger than the tip of a needle!" ”

"Humble ......" Song Qing couldn't speak, but his heart was warm, his throat was a little choked, and he kowtowed hard.

Ye Zhao said with a smile: "Continue to take stock, there is nothing missing." ”

"Wow!" Song Qing replied loudly, and waited until the sound of the horse's hooves gradually faded away, and then slowly got up, his heart was surging, and it was difficult for him.

…… The fierce battle in the area of the Tianwang Palace continues, the gorgeous palace, the trench is extremely deep, and the walls are full of red-headed people, these brave soldiers are probably the first time to step into the gorgeous Heavenly Palace, but what they are facing is outside the Heavenly Palace, covering the sky with the flag of the Pingyuan Army.

The fifth town has already surrounded the Tianwang Palace, and even set up artillery outside the palace gate, of course, to a large extent, it is only a intimidating effect, grenades are disabled, how can they use artillery to attack the city? This gorgeous palace is really reluctant to destroy, take the Heavenly King Palace, capture Hong Xiuquan alive, and the generals and soldiers besieging the city probably have this idea in their hearts.

On the square in front of the Heavenly King's Palace, more than a dozen steel cannons were lined up, and the muzzles of the Sensen guns shining with metallic luster were terrifying.

When the regent's huge canopy appeared in front of the yellow wall, there was an earth-shattering cheer on all sides, and on the square, on the roofs of the houses, beside the trenches, and under the willows, the sea of gray uniforms raised their guns, and the cheers rose higher and higher, and the faces of every warrior were extremely excited, and they gave full vent to the final victory and the supreme glory.

"Capture Hong Xiuquan alive! The prince of the heavenly palace sits! A low-ranking officer shouted hoarsely, and several soldiers immediately echoed, and gradually, the shouts became louder and louder, "Capture Hong Xiuquan alive!" The prince of the heavenly palace sits! The sound shook the sky, and the red moon that had just emerged from the dark clouds seemed to tremble in this earth-shattering shout, and gradually dimmed.

The slogan was vulgar, but it was the catharsis of the emotions of countless officers and soldiers at the moment, and tens of thousands of soldiers were immersed in this wonderful mood and shouted hard.

Next to the huge yellow wall, under the prince's honor guard, someone played a flag, and gradually, the shouting slowly subsided.

Harwich's face was solemn, and he said to Ye Zhao: "Yes, since a few days ago, dozens of truckloads of charcoal and firewood have been sent in by the puppet palace one after another. ”

Ye Zhao was silent, what he was most worried about was about to happen, Hong Xiuquan was clearly going to light a raging fire at the last moment and turn into ashes with the Heavenly Palace.

On the other side, on the red horse, the matchmaker said: "I haven't found any trace of the puppet king Hong Renji, and I heard the soldiers say that he didn't enter the puppet palace." ”

Ye Zhao nodded silently.

Looking at the sky, why did the rain stop? If Hong Xiuquan really lit a fire in the Heavenly King's Palace, it would be out of control.

"Prepare for a storm." Ye Zhao waved his hand, at this moment, he couldn't hesitate, even if the Heavenly King's Palace was blown up under the fire, it was better than being burned down by a fire.

In Guangzhou, there are still fire trucks and fire brigades, and in this Nanjing City, where can we find water dragons to fight fires?

Harwich nodded helplessly and said, "Yes, the minion will go to give orders." ”

At this time, seeing that black smoke suddenly floated in the Heavenly Palace, Ye Zhao shook his head, he fell short, this Heavenly King Palace, in the previous life, he could only appreciate its majesty from the fantasy pictures, and it seemed that it would be difficult to preserve it in this life.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of gunfire in the Heavenly King's Palace, but it was not the red turban on the wall attacking the besieging troops, and Harrich, who was about to order the artillery to fire, was stunned and retracted his hand.

The gunshots became louder and louder, as if someone was shouting, and the noise continued, but I couldn't hear what was being shouted, and the black smoke in the Heavenly King's Palace seemed to have gradually faded.

Finally, the gunfire seemed to ring out in front of the palace gates, and the red turbans on the city walls either fell or seemed to surrender with their weapons.

"Someone is against the water." Ye Zhao and the others all had the same thought in their hearts.

Finally, in front of the deep trench, the huge copper-nailed mahogany door "creaked", making a vigorous and long sound, and was slowly pulled open.

In front of the door, there were dozens of men, looking at the clothes that were the uniform of the Taiping Army, but the red scarves on their heads were torn off.

Countless rifles were pointed at the palace gate, and these men did not dare to advance, so they stood like that.

"It seems to be Brother Zhou!" Su Hongniang's eyes are extremely sharp.

Sure enough, the leader shouted, "Is Senior Sister Su there?" Su Hongniang, Lord Su! You go and spread the word, I'm Zhou Lichun! The king of heaven has committed suicide, and the palace is full of soldiers, I hope you will keep your promises, don't kill in vain! ”

The matchmaker hurriedly rode her horse and galloped, and countless officers and soldiers in gray uniforms divided into two sides like a tide, revealing this female general in red uniform, who was very handsome and beautiful.

When the matchmaker led Zhou Lichun to Ye Zhaoma to speak, a group of infantry teams had already begun to enter the Heavenly King's Palace, probably hundreds of teams, to clear out the stubborn enemy and accept prisoners of war.

"Lord Wang!" Coming to Ye Zhaoma, Zhou Lichun gave up his hand, his face was slightly ashamed, no matter what, surrender was not done by the big husband, but the king of heaven had already committed suicide by taking poison, and before he died, he forced him to order the soldiers to set fire to the palace, the palace was already full of charcoal and gunpowder, and the brothers who were born and died had to be martyred, and it was not a pity for him to die, but seeing that all the brothers were going to be buried in the fire, he really couldn't bear it.

Harwich's eyes widened, the little rebel was so rude.

Ye Zhao smiled and said, "General Zhou has worked hard, go home quickly, your wife is in a hurry to come." "Zhou Lichun may not be able to be used by himself, in the future, An An can divide the matter, but there is no need to force it, to avoid the disaster of the fire of the Heavenly King's Palace, it is already a miracle.

"The prince is really magnanimous." Zhou Lichun smiled and arched his hand, turned around and left, accompanied by four or five soldiers of the Pingyuan Army, like him, he naturally had to be closely monitored now, and there was no need to hide it.

Su Hongniang looked at his back and said with a smile: "He can't turn this corner." ”

Ye Zhao smiled: "Yes, who can be as wise and brave as the lady?" ”

Harwich didn't dare to agree, after all, this was the considerate words of the prince and Fujin.

At the palace gate, the red-headed people and prisoners of war who rose out were escorted out in an endless stream, two or three hours later, the team responsible for cleaning up the puppet palace also came out one by one, the body of the puppet king was on the Golden Dragon Palace, hundreds of women in the palace took poison, and the rest were about 1,000 people, who were guarded in the puppet king's garden, and the puppet king's young lord Hong Tianguifu and his sister Tian Erjin were found hiding in the cellar.

In fact, Tianer Jin Yunyun is the honorific title that the King of Heaven wants his subjects to give to the second princess, and so on, the eldest princess is Tianchangjin, the third princess is Tiansanjin, and so on. However, the soldiers of the Pingyuan Army who were impatient to distinguish this, heard the funny name, and shouted along.

"I respectfully invite the master to enter the puppet king's mansion, clear the source for its original, and return this mansion to the future!" Harwich rolled over and dismounted, kneeling to his knees.

Ye Zhao nodded slightly, looking at this majestic palace, his heart was suddenly a little chaotic, the Taiping army that swept half of the world was finally pacified by himself, although the rest of the army still existed, but in fact, the fall of Tianjing, the fall of the Tianwang Palace, has already represented the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has come to an end, Li Xiucheng and Shi Dakai even if they can still turn over the river and the sea, but the Taiping army has failed.

If you don't know the history of later generations, how will you judge yourself?

And watching the golden cover of the prince slowly move towards the Tianwang Palace surrounded by the guard of honor, the dense gray uniformed officers and soldiers around the Tianwang Palace with no end in sight were extremely excited in their hearts, holding their guns hard and clenching their fists, but they didn't know how to vent their emotions.

The evil god came to the world, and the great changes that made the world lose color and often lost were leveled by the prince, and the evil kings of all roads fell one by one under the iron hooves of the Pingyuan army, the land of Shenzhou, who is the Pingyuan army resisting? Who can resist a light blow from the prince?

The horse's hooves sounded softly, and seeing that there was the solemn and dignified brass nail mahogany palace gate in front of him, Harich, who was riding a horse and following Ye Zhao, suddenly urged the horse to walk a few steps quickly, and he didn't know where to shake out a yellow robe and draped it on Ye Zhao's shoulders, when Ye Zhao was stunned, Harwich had already turned over and dismounted, kowtowed and said loudly: "Long live the prince, long live, long live!" ”

Immediately, dozens of generals dismounted and knelt down, shouting in unison: "Long live, long live, long live!" "Obviously, it was rehearsed.

Countless gray uniformed officers and soldiers immediately fell short like waves, and the spectacle was incomparable.

"Long live the prince, long live, long live!" Everyone's face was excited and unspeakable, and everyone realized that this was what they wanted to vent, and they were so comfortable when they shouted it.

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!" The deafening shouts were like stormy waves, hitting the ancient capital.

Birds hovering in the sky, and golden feathers are dazzling.

Ye Zhao frowned slightly, this was really not his order, he ripped off the yellow robe, threw it to Harwich, and rode his horse towards the palace gate, now Beijing has just been pacified, the southeast is in ruins, and jackals from all walks of life are eyeing each other, how can he have the energy to start a division battle in the Southern Dynasty again? But at this time, the soldiers in the city really need a channel to vent their excitement, and Harwich is looking for a good time.

It seems that it is a top priority to pull up the yamen of various ministries as soon as possible, and it can be regarded as an explanation to these soldiers and officials, brave and loyal, can not always be this small pattern, in addition to successive victories, meritorious generals and fierce generals, it is more necessary to add officials to the knighthood, from ancient times to the present, it is better to be, otherwise it will inevitably be disheartened, and the team will not be easy to bring.

(To be continued)
