Chapter 1 Governor of Guangxi (5)
Ding Yi did not stop the people from abusing and killing the rebels, even if the rebels were knocked to the ground, they no longer reverted to their previous arrogant and murderous appearance, and kept begging and crying, and they couldn't make Ding Yi say a word for them, Ding Yi had seen too many such people.
Yes, that's it, very few people are able to maintain their dignity and decency when they lose the violence and power that they are proud of. Those who are able to do this, who can be reversed in a position of strength and weakness, and still maintain their dignity and personality, must have a strong faith, whether that faith is great or noble, such as Su Wu, Wen Tianxiang, Yue Wumu, Joan of Arc, or thousands of years later, Zoya, Qiu Jin, Madame Roland, and so on; Or is the faith wicked and arrogant, like Mary in the Hereafter? Antoinette and his ilk.
These rebels have no faith, and when they have the upper hand, they reveal all kinds of tyranny in human nature; Once defeated, they reveal all kinds of ugliness in human nature. In fact, Ding Yi even saw very clearly that most of the people who were venting their anger would go down the same path if they were not guided and incited.
Ding Yi used the back of the long knife in his hand to gently tap the iron shield on Wen Fatzi's left arm again.
The crisp, mechanical, and stable sound was not too loud, but the people around it gradually quieted down.
"Father, fellow villagers, would you like this to happen again?" Ding raised the long knife in his hand and pointed to the eaves that were already on fire in the distant corners, the houses where black smoke was rising, and the corpses of the fallen people on the long street. Woe to the soldiers! Prosperity, the people suffer, die. The people are bitter! ”
I don't know which of the people behind him has read a little bit of books, or is blessed to the soul, but in the silent and sad crowd, he suddenly shouted: "You are the governor of Guangxi in the Ming Dynasty!" We are the people of the Ming Dynasty! Adults, you have to protect the little ones! But many people responded to these words, "Don't go, my lord!" You want to stay in Huaiji and protect me and wait for the safety of the county! "Follow the adults. I'm not afraid! Whoever harms others, I will beat them to death! "That's right! Follow the adults, we are not afraid of these thieves! ”
The fat man is very knowledgeable. Loud yelling: "Quiet! Listen, noisy birds? You know what a! Da Ming? What did the imperial court give our young nephew? A title, some craftsmen, and a little grain. Not a single soldier! It's true that there is no one! The young nephew took our family with him. There are also students from the door who come to Guangxi! If the court has soldiers and horses, do you think you can sing opera? Damn, who would be a military governor of Guangxi, just come to Huaiji? Our nephew and young master want to manage the whole of Guangxi, just if you don't leave Huaiji, how can other state capitals be organized? ”
Although these words were rough, they were simple and easy to understand, and for a while, the more than 1,000 people were quiet. Deathly silence.
Gradually, but there was a low sobbing voice. It was a dazed and overwhelmed future for their future, no one wanted to be slaughtered, no one wanted to be ravaged by others, but Wen Fatzi's words ruthlessly shattered all their expectations, and someone choked up and shouted: "But I have accepted the food!" How can the government ignore me? "I don't understand, I'm just a farmer, why can't Lord Ding protect us? ”
Ding Yi lifted the knife again and gently tapped the iron shield on the fat man's arm.
"No one in the imperial court dared to take errands, and the students did. The students did not hide in Guangdong, waiting for the thieves to leave, and then pretending to run over. Ding Yi's voice was not loud, but the people who longed for their fate to be sheltered did not dare to make a single sound with bated breath, lest they miss a certain sentence that might affect their future, so that Ding Yi's voice was so clear among the more than 1,000 people.
Ding Yi held a knife and smiled at the people behind him and said, "Students should stand up and protect you." But the student only has one head, two hands, and if he is cut off with an arrow and a knife, he will also bleed and die...... Why be afraid to die for the people? It's just that the student died, but all the fathers and fellow villagers had to forgive Ding, so they really couldn't protect you. Unless ......"
"Unless what? Speak up, my lord! What you want, I'm up to you! "Yes, my family has three babies, if you don't have soldiers, I'll send two babies to lead you a horse!" "I still have some rice, I donate two buckets, no, three buckets are also successful!" "I am a ready-to-wear garment, and I pledge ten sets of good clothes and hats!" "Although the student is a scholar, if the adult does not think that the student is powerless, he is also willing to put pen to paper! ”
Only those who are frightened by the scourge of war can understand the value of peace.
It was only the people who had suffered a lot in the war that they were more and more eager for a powerful leader to lead them, such as Lord Ding who led them to kill thieves and protect their families. Ding Yi laughed, this is the effect he wanted, he didn't say anything anymore, but said: "Okay, if you fathers and villagers can trust the students and listen to the students' arrangements, then whoever dares to move this Huaiji County in the future will teach him to break his head and bleed!" ”
"We all listen to the adults!" "Yes, whoever doesn't listen to adults, I'll beat that guy to death!" This kind of remarks, under the surging public sentiment, have been shouted out one after another, and some people even shouted, "We are the people of Lord Ding, we only listen to adults!" "That's right, the emperor doesn't care about us, as long as a Qing official like Lord Ding who is not afraid of death, he will come here to save the people, this Huaiji From now on, we only recognize Lord Ding!" "About in the hearts of the people at the bottom, a clean official must be good, and a good official must be clean.
Gradually, however, they fell silent, for there was a voice that had been heard so much by the people of the Arms in recent years. Even the children who were riding in the corner of the wall hurriedly crawled down, cowering in the corner or hiding behind the adults, in order to indulge in fear and have something to rely on.
It was the sound of war horses, and the scraping sound of big axes dragging on the bluestone pavement.
Tuoba Zhenge, the one who came was Tuoba Zhenge and his cronies.
On weekdays, the old foundations of those rebels, under the constraints of scalpers and Zheng Ang, are still slightly better, but under Tuoba Zhenge's subordinates, those Jianghu people are not so well-behaved. Although it is not like today's military rebellion, blatantly entering the house to rob, but eating overlord food; Look at which things are good, snatch them, and force them to buy and sell; It is even more common to flirt with a little daughter-in-law and a big girl.
I went to sue a few times, but it was all invalid, and there were also later generations who couldn't stand it, and entangled more than a dozen friends to find Tuoba Zhenge to reason, and the result was that the leader of the rebel army who dragged the wheel and axe was cut down with an axe, and four died on the spot. The others were tied to horses by Tuoba Zhenge's men and dragged to death on this long street.
Thirty or forty men turned the corner and dismounted.
Jianghu people can ride horses, but riding horses does not mean that they can fight horses, these are two different things, just as there are many people who can drive in later generations, but not all are professional racing drivers, high-speed galloping horses, to accurately swing weapons and hit the enemy, and avoid the enemy's attack, block the shock force, is not an easy task.
No one wants to show too many empty doors on their horses, so that the enemy can take advantage of them.
And in this street battle, foot combat has a more flexible advantage.
Even Tuoba Zhenge is no exception.
"Ding Rongcheng, you are a good man, if you are willing to conspire with a certain ......" Tuoba Zhenge did not start immediately, but tried his best to persuade Ding Yi to surrender, although he only occupies a county now, but he believes that Ding Yi is a smart person and can distinguish the situation, "In the future, everything in a certain place, whether it is military horses, territory, or women, will be shared with you, how about it?" ”
Hearing this, Ding Yi smiled, did not speak, just put the long knife into the sheath, slowly dismounted, Wen Fat also rolled off the saddle, followed Ding Yi with a shield, but shouted at Tuoba Zhenge: "Ding Rongcheng, the military governor of Guangxi in the Ming Dynasty, is here!" Those who surrender will not die! ”
"Noise!" Tuoba Zhenge raised his eyebrows at the fat man, "I won't kill you later, I just cut my scalp and lit the sky lantern." ”
Wen Fatzi has seen any torture in Dongchang, and he can't help but shrink his neck when he listens.
"Stand back." Ding Yi seemed to completely ignore Tuoba Zhenge's words, he said to the people behind him, "Uncle, please lead the horse to help the students, this is a good horse, so as not to kill the thief and hurt it, it is not beautiful after all." Those people were trembling when they looked at Tuoba Zhenge, and when they heard Ding Yi tell them to retreat, they hurriedly vacated a large section.
Tuoba Zhenge watched Ding Yichong come over and sneered: "Ding Rongcheng, your set is useless!" Eat your set first, but I don't believe in any hellish Rakshasa! If you have any spell skills, you just have to use it, but I'm not afraid to tell you that these brothers are not idle characters, but they have practiced a set of combined attack techniques. ”
"You can't speak." Ding put his hands in his hands and led the fat man to walk over leisurely.
Even the most trivial statement is only two sentences: if it is a group beating, then the students will beat you in a group; Or heads-up, it's just you guys, single-handedly picking up students. But so? ”
He took a few more steps, and from the sleeve behind him, two copper lids fell out, and the fat man Wen who followed behind stretched out his toes to cushion them, and then taught them to land silently, only to hear Ding Yi laugh again: "Or a sentence: people are shameless, and the world is invincible." Isn't that the end of it? ”
Tuoba Zhenge was not angered by Ding Yi, and Da Lu smiled: "How Ren Ru talks about lotus flowers, there are only two ways at this time, one is to conspire with someone, and the other is to ......
"Die!" (To be continued......)
