Chapter 108: Collect your heart
Hong Chengchou is known for his tough attitude towards the peasant army in history, Yang He's appeasement policy will go bankrupt, which is still related to Hong Chengchou's actions in private, Hong Chengchou is worthy of being a thick-faced and black-hearted person, and the people who died under his means of killing and surrendering do not know the ordinary.
This guy not only kills and surrenders in battle, but also does not let go of those who accept the appeasement, often laughing in the face, and before you can sit down and eat a few bites of food, the ambush soldiers will rise up and kill people on the spot.
Therefore, although Hong Chengchou is capable, he has always had a bad reputation, especially after he was cleared, his reputation stinks anymore. And this guy is estimated to be the reincarnation of the killing god, and many of the Manchu Qing's policies against the remnants of the Ming were introduced in his hands, so too many people died because of it.
So for Hong Chengchou, Wang Dalun has always been very afraid to have too deep friendships, this guy is the real cannibal and does not spit out bones, Wang Dalun and he often have the feeling of seeking skin with the tiger.
But this time, Hong Chengchou had to come forward, because it involved the issue of killing prisoners.
In terms of how to deal with these people who are bent on going to the black, Wang Dalun and Hong Chengchou have similar concepts, that is, kill! He didn't dare to expect to be able to let these people get lost, especially for some people who had a lot of blood debts on their hands, Wang Dalun thought that he was killing animals!
But Wang Dalun is not as good as Hong Chengchou, that is, he is not so black-hearted, especially for these people who accept appeasement, it is very hurtful to go back on their word and not pay attention to faith. So he would rather Zhang Xianzhong and others jump out than do it in advance. Because it's a matter of reputation.
In ancient times, it was not like now, after all, it was to govern the country with etiquette, and if the reputation was too bad, it would not be easy to mix in the mainstream society, Wang Dalun decided to give the initiative to kill the prisoners to Hong Chengchou for the sake of his reputation, and let Hong Chengchou be this villain, because there are many people to be killed this time, at least a few hundred.
Another consideration for letting Hong Chengchou bear this name is Yang He, although Old Man Yang has cheated himself, Wang Dalun doesn't want to offend Yang He. The boss is now appeased and happy. Although he also killed prisoners later, now the old man only wants to appease people.
The rebellion of Zhang Xianzhong and others this time was a major blow to Yang He's appeasement career, and Wang Dalun felt a little embarrassed to face Yang He. Especially this time to kill so many people. It is estimated that Yang He will have a lot of effort to appease him in the future. So Wang Dalun decisively asked Hong Chengchou to be the mastermind and himself to be an accomplice.
Hong Chengchou looked at Wang Dalun, who was sitting silently at the table, and took a sip of tea gently. He asked aloud, "What?" I'm afraid, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to explain to Governor Yang in the future? ”
"You're not afraid, what am I afraid of?" Wang Dalun said lightly.
"I'm not afraid, let's start, the people at the bottom are still waiting!" Hong Chengchou said lightly.
Wang Dalun stood up and shouted: "Bring someone to commit a crime!" ”
With Wang Dalun's order, nearly 500 people were escorted into the execution ground, looking at these rebel leaders kneeling on the ground, Wang Dalun made a gesture of invitation to Hong Chengchou and said: "Lord Hong, it is more appropriate for you to read the judgment order on behalf of the government!" ”
"Looks like you're still scared!" Hong Chengchou shook his head, stood in front of the stage, and began to publish the judgment document he wrote with full of energy, which was very wonderful, but Wang Dalun just wanted to doze off when he heard it, this document was too literary, not to mention the people below, and he couldn't even understand some parts of himself.
When Wang Dalun couldn't help but yawn several times, Hong Chengchou finally finished reading, and then he waved his big hand and said: "Noon has come, take it down, and execute it!" ”
Hearing Hong Chengchou's order, the prisoners who were still quiet just now were all boiling, and they shouted one after another: "Spare your life! We don't dare anymore!"
Originally, Wang Dalun had made up his mind not to speak, but after hearing this, he stood up, rushed to these people, pointed at them and said, "Now that you know how to beg for mercy, have I given you a chance?" You don't cherish it yourself, and now you still want to come and beg for mercy, it's too late! Execute! ”
Seeing the former accomplices who were tied up like rice dumplings and beheaded one by one, and those who were on the precipice during the rebellion all felt very lucky, and they all looked at the little red wolf standing with their heads held high in the front row, if it weren't for his voice, it is estimated that many of them would have gone to hell together.
With the execution officer's order, a flash of knife light was seen, and all the rebel participants who knelt on the ground cut off their heads, and blood spurted out, staining the ground red.
The little red wolf and the others looked at it, and they couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, and now they all felt a little afraid, and they suddenly felt that it was really a good thing to be alive. At the same time, they have a new understanding of Wang Dalun, and they look at Wang Dalun with awe and fear in their eyes.
Wang Dalun probably sensed their thoughts, and after all the prisoners were beheaded, he stood on the stage and said slowly: "I know that some people may think I am too cruel, but they deserve it!" Especially Luo Rucai and others, they accept the grace of the imperial court, but they are not grateful, this should be killed! ”
"You are all trapped by your livelihood, forced to take risks as a last resort, the Son of Heaven is benevolent, it is not easy to remember you, so let you go. However, some people think that the court is easy to deceive, and they think that the royal law is an ornament! Today, I will tell you, the king law cannot be deceived! ”
"All of you are now my soldiers, and you know how I treat you! From you, food and clothing, I am missing you? What has done you wrong? I can't figure out how someone would even want to be a thief, and it's easy to be a thief? ”
Wang Dalun paused, and then said: "You are now my subordinates, everyone must remember one thing, listen to me, follow me, there is meat to eat!" If you dare to rebel against the imperial court and disobey the yang and yin under my hands, then they will be a lesson for you! ”
Wang Dalun's words have had a great impact on the people below, and his words can be summed up in one sentence, those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it die! When Hong Chengchou heard this, he couldn't help pouting in his heart, feeling that Wang Dalun's words were for his subordinates, and he was also beating his own side drum.
"Okay, so much to say, I guess everyone is getting impatient, and we're going to do the last thing today. I believe in a saying, if you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you don't do well, you will be punished. Now that someone has embodied my punishment with his life, guess what? ”
"Rewarded!" Sun Liu and the others began to shout loudly below, and it was good to follow a generous boss, and from time to time there were bonuses.
Wang Dalun said with a smile: "That's right, accept the award!" Everyone has just fought a battle, and then we will start to talk about the reward for meritorious deeds! The jackpot this time is Sun Liu, come up to receive the award, because his efforts have created conditions for us to annihilate Gao Yingxiang, and the reward is 1,000 taels of silver, come up and receive the award! ”
Wang Dalun's words made the people below envious, he was really generous, in Wang Dalun's team is good, you don't need to drink the blood of soldiers, as long as you work hard and make meritorious contributions from time to time, you can live a good life. The little red wolf and the others had red eyes, and they began to imagine what they would do if they had a thousand taels of silver.
As Sun Liu came up, the guards carried several large boxes, and when they opened them, the white silver blinded everyone's eyes.
Wang Dalun smiled and pointed to the two big boxes and said, "Sun Liu, can you take it back, do you want someone to help?" ”
When the people below saw it, they immediately coaxed: "Sun Lvshuai, do you want us to help?" ”
Sun Liucai didn't want these wolves to help, the consequence of their help was that his silver flew in vain, so he said with a bitter face: "Young master, can you exchange it for a silver ticket?" ”
"No problem!" Wang Dalun took out a 1,000-dollar silver ticket from a small box on the side and handed it to Sun Liu. Then he continued, "Let's go on, you can choose whether you want a silver ticket or a cash ticket." But Sun Liu, you have to treat you at night, your young master has sent so much silver, and he has no money on him! ”
Wang Dalun's words provoked a burst of laughter below, Ha Luha, you Sun Liu still can't escape the situation of being slaughtered, and some people are dark-hearted and begin to wonder if they should call a few more girls at night.
Sun Liu cried with a sad face, and said very pitifully: "Young master, I'll just invite you one, okay?" ”
Wang Dalun said with a smile: "I have no problem, you just ask them if they are willing!" ”
Hearing that Sun Liu wanted to be an iron rooster, everyone began to look at Sun Liu angrily, and some people began to threaten, "Sun Liu, be careful that we ignore you in the future, and you can't play without us doing dirty work!" ”
Sun Liu was helpless, he had no choice but to say: "I'll please, but let's say first, each person has a girl, and the overnight fee will be paid by himself!" ”
Sun Liu's words provoked a burst of protests from the audience, and some people had already prepared strong pills, but Sun Liu broke their plan.
Wang Dalun waved his hand and said: "Okay, just kidding, let's follow the reward, Sulu, you have a ??? this time"
Little Red Wolf and the others listened to the strings of numbers bursting out of Wang Dalun's mouth, and watched them come to the stage to accept the award one by one, and they were very envious, they regretted that they didn't join earlier, otherwise they would have been able to come on stage to receive the award now.
The little red wolf was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard his name called on the stage, he looked up and saw Wang Dalun smiling and said, "Little red wolf, aren't you going to ask for a reward?" ”
"Do I have it too?" The little red wolf said in disbelief.
"Of course, I said, there is a reward for doing well, you didn't participate in the rebellion, which is good, so you also have a prize, you have a hundred taels of silver, and the others are fifty taels of silver each, you won't be too little money, right?" Wang Dalun asked with a smile.
"Yes! How can we dislike it! The little red wolf and the others were excited, they did three steps and two steps, and rushed to the stage to accept the award. At this moment, they feel that they are really right with Wang Dalun.
Hong Chengchou watched coldly, saw the scene in front of him, and sighed unconsciously, this army will really only be surnamed Wang in the future, and Wang Dalun's combination of grace and power has gathered everyone's hearts. (To be continued......)
