We all looked at Shen Buregret in shock, only Ye Zhiqiu and Xue Xinrou were stunned for a moment, and then they also looked at the corpses again like Shen Buregret, and said four words almost at the same time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Yangzhou 10 days!

"No wonder ......," Ye Jiuqing suddenly realized, and his voice was low and he was muttering to himself. There will be so many corpses. ”

"You know that, too?" I'm a little confused.

"What does Yangzhou Ten Days mean?" The palace lord was also curious.

"This is the darkest ten days in Yangzhou since the founding of the city."

Ye Zhiqiu looked at the piles of corpses and told us that the full name of Yangzhou Ten Days is Yangzhou Ten Diary, which records what happened in Yangzhou within ten days, and Ye Zhiqiu mentioned the original text in the book to us.

…… There are babies all over the ground, or lined with horses' hooves, or by human feet, the liver and brain are smeared on the ground, and the crying is full of wilderness, the fourth day of the first month, the beginning of the sky. The corpses on the road have been swelled by the rain, and the green skin is like a drum, and the flesh and blood have collapsed. The filth is pressing, and the menstrual period is burning, and its anger is getting worse. Front, back, left and right, burning everywhere. The room is dense, formed like mist, and smells fishy......

We looked at each other, even if we didn't know what happened in Yangzhou on the 10th, but from the words Ye Zhiqiu said, we could also experience the killing and blood.

"These corpses were left behind in Yangzhou for the tenth day?" The palace lord was shocked.

"Sister, what is the beginning and end of the ten days in Yangzhou?" Tian Ji asked.

Shen does not regret telling us in great detail that in May of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the ministers of the Southern Ming Dynasty supported King Fu as the emperor in Nanjing and established the Hongguang regime of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

At the same time, faced with the threat of the Qing army, Li Zicheng's Dashun peasant army, and Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi peasant army, Shi Kefa, a cabinet scholar and military department, had the strategic intention of attacking north on the basis of strengthening defense, so as to map the Central Plains.

On May 13 of the 17th year of Chongzhen, four towns were set up, each town had 30,000 soldiers, Dongping Bo Liu Zeqing was stationed in Huaibei, Xingping Bo Gaojie was stationed in Surabaya, Guangchang Bo Liu Liangzuo was stationed in Linhuai, Jingnan Hou Huang Degong was stationed in Luzhou, Shi Kefa was stationed in Yangzhou, and was dispatched in the center, in addition to Ningnan Hou Zuo Liangyu led more than 100,000 troops to garrison Wuchang.

"At that time, under the leadership of Duoduo, the Qing soldiers divided their troops into Bozhou and Xuzhou, advanced to the south, quickly occupied Xuzhou and other places, and took advantage of the situation to go down to Huai'an, seize Sizhou and cross the Huai River, and wave the army to attack Yangzhou." Shen Buregret's expression was solemn, and there was a bit of resentment and regret in his words. "If Nanming was united at that time, although he didn't dare to say that he would expel the Qing soldiers, at least he would not have caused the tragedy of Yangzhou later."

"At the moment of the great enemy, shouldn't we be more bitter about the enemy?" Tian Ji asked.

"At that time, the four towns of the Southern Ming Dynasty supported the army and self-respect, contradicting each other, all wanted to seize the prosperous Yangzhou, before the Qing army crossed the Huai, the four towns had launched a fierce battle, Gao Jie and the general soldier of Suizhou in the Southern Ming Dynasty Xu Dingguo had a gap, Xu Dingguo planned to kill Gao Jie and led the troops to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, before the start of the Yangzhou campaign, the most powerful Gao Jie in the four towns collapsed in the cannibalism." Ye Zhiqiu said heartily beside him.

About this history, the clearest thing to know is Shen Buregret, Ye Zhiqiu also knows it well because he is proficient in literature and history, and even Xue Xinrou knows it clearly, this battle almost accelerated the process of the Qing Dynasty's entry into the Central Plains.

Xue Xinrou also deliberately studied this history when she was abroad, so she mentioned that she was like a treasure in the past, and took Ye Zhiqiu's words and continued.

One of the main military forces of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Zuo Liangyu, who was stationed in Wuchang, protected the Donglin Party who was overwhelmed by Ma Shiying, and raised troops to attack Ma Shiying in the name of the Qing monarch's side, and attacked Nanjing, and Li Zicheng took the opportunity to occupy Wuchang.

When the Qing army had entered Henan and Anhui and was about to seize Yangzhou, Zuo Liangyu not only failed to protect Wuchang but restrained Nanjing, and Zuo Liangyu died of illness, and his son Menggeng continued to unify the army to continue the attack, forcing Nanjing to hastily declare martial law and urgently recruit Huang Degong, Liu Zeqing, and Liu Liangzuo to enter the guard.

As a result, the Qing army captured Sizhou and crossed Huai, Shi Kefa retreated to Yangzhou, and when he urgently asked for help, Er Liu actually used the excuse of entering the defense and led the army south.

Liu Zeqing, who ignored the crisis in Yangzhou, did not enter the defense, but surrendered to the Qing, and Liu Liangzuo also surrendered to the Qing after the Yu King Duoduo entered Nanjing, and the armies of these two towns did not participate in the Yangzhou Campaign.

And Huang Degong was ordered to intercept Zuo Menggeng Yu, and led his troops to garrison Wuhu, but it was too late to rush to the aid of Yangzhou.

"When the Qing army pressed the border and besieged Yangzhou, only Shi Kefa led the troops to hold on to it in isolation, and later the chief soldier and the deputy envoy of the supervising army in the city were greedy for life and afraid of death, so they pulled out the camp overnight and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, which was tantamount to drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle for the Yangzhou city guard."

"Nanming arranged hundreds of thousands of heavy troops around Nanjing, and after a series of cannibalism, they surrendered one after another, and Shi Kefa was actually alone in Yangzhou City with few soldiers and no help." Shen Buregret nodded and said.

"What happened later, what happened in Yangzhou later?" I asked.

"The Qing army went south from the return road, Yu Wang Duoduo led his troops to take Sizhou on the 13th, crossed the Huai on the 14th, and besieged Yangzhou on the 19th. Ye Zhiqiu's voice became smaller and smaller: "In less than a day, the Qing army occupied Yangzhou, and three days later, the Qing army suddenly began to massacre and slaughter, slaughtering for ten days, and then the Qing army was ordered by Duoduo to seal the knife, which is known as Yangzhou Ten Days in history." ”

"The 10th day of Yangzhou is a criminal witness to the Qing army's massacre of the Wu-speaking population in Jiangbei, as long as the records and descriptions of this history in literature and history are shocking, Yangzhou at that time was like a hell on earth," Shen said indignantly. “…… Walking through a ditch and a pond, piling up corpses and accumulating them, pillowing hands and feet, blood entering the water and ochre, turning into five colors, the pond is flat, the house is deep, and there are corpses everywhere......"

"That's not a mass grave." Ye Zhiqiu raised his hand and pointed at the mountain of corpses outside the Bronze Palace.

"What's that?" Ye Jiuqing asked.

"Screw knotted top!" Ye Zhiqiu replied.

We asked what it meant, and Ye Zhiqiu told him that the screw knot top is actually an ancient alley in Yangzhou, China, the alley is winding, about hundreds of meters long, the narrowest part is more than one meter wide, the widest place is only two meters, and the ground is paved with slabs and bricks.

The screw knot top is actually the homonym of the corpse and the top, which means that during the ten days of Yangzhou, the dead people were laid up layer by layer, and finally the roof was as high.

"I think what the screw knot said should be right here, and now some people even question the authenticity of Yangzhou Ten Days, the biggest point is that the remains of Yangzhou Ten Days of Massacre have not been found, and now we have found these bones can fully prove the existence of Yangzhou Ten Days." Shen said without regrets.

"Questioning? It's questioning, so many people have died, are these questioning people blind? Tian Ji scolded.

"Ten days after Yangzhou, the Qing army received an order from Duoduo to seal the sword, and the Qing army began to collect and burn corpses, and most of the victims were burned." Ye Zhiqiu said with a solemn expression. "The corpses we see today are just the tip of the iceberg."

"What? Tip of the iceberg?! "The palace lords were all surprised." Not to mention that there are tens of thousands of corpses here, how many people died in Yangzhou on the 10th? ”

For a while, there was silence in the Bronze Palace, and they who knew the truth seemed to be reluctant to mention and face this number, until Xue Xinrou finally said in a low voice: "Eight hundred thousand ......"

"The Qing army should have dug mass graves next to the Wenhe River and discarded the corpses to bury them, but after the Wenhe River was filled in, the corpses could never be seen again, perhaps for this reason, there have been few relics of the victims of the Ten Days in Yangzhou." Shen Buregret looked around, his voice was heavy. "It is estimated that there are still many places to the top of such a base."

"That is to say, the Qing army that invaded Yangzhou City at that time inadvertently discovered the Bronze Palace and took Jiuding from it." Ye Jiuqing said.

"But if the Qing army gets Jiuding, I can't figure out another thing." Ye Zhiqiu said.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"Jiuding is so important, symbolizing the world and orthodoxy, when the Qing army entered the customs is to win the Central Plains, but the Qing Dynasty is not completely sure of victory, the situation at that time was quite chaotic and responsible, the various forces contain each other, but it is not without the ability to resist the Qing army, once these forces unite the Qing army will be defeated." Ye Zhiqiu said thoughtfully.

"What do you mean to say, since the Qing army got Jiuding, why not use Jiuding to command the world, Jiuding is the important weapon of the country, lost for thousands of years, reappeared and was visited by the Qing Dynasty, the ancients believed in the destiny of heaven, with Jiuding in hand, the world can return to the heart." Xue Xinrou reacted.

"Yes, that's what I think, but the strange thing is that throughout the history of the Qing Dynasty, there is no record of Jiuding, if Jiuding falls into the hands of the Qing Dynasty, why don't you mention Jiuding?"

"If you want to use Kyushu Ding to let the world return to the heart, the most important thing is the people's expectations, slaughtering 800,000 unarmed residents in Yangzhou, the Qing Dynasty has already lost the hearts of the people, it can be seen that after the Qing Dynasty got Jiuding, he never thought of using this important weapon of the country." Ye Jiuqing said.

"Dad, what you said is quite reasonable, ten days after Yangzhou, the Qing soldiers and the atrocities of the three massacres in Jiading, it can be seen that the Qing Dynasty did not want to win the hearts of the people at all."

"That's why I said that Jiuding should not be in the Guannei, otherwise, there should be rumors of it." Shen said without regrets.

"Sister, you mean that after getting Jiuding, the Qing Dynasty secretly transported it back to Guanwai."

"That's strange, it's impossible for the Qing Dynasty not to know the importance of Jiuding, why keep the matter of Jiuding seeing the light of day secret?" The palace lord muttered to himself.

After hearing this, I remained silent, looking at the corpses outside the Bronze Palace and was silent for a long time.

"What are you thinking?" Ye Jiuqing walked up to me and asked.

I frowned slightly, and replied puzzledly: "800,000, this is not a small number, after the Qing army broke through Yangzhou City, why did they kill some residents who had no power to resist......
