Chapter 279: Heavenly power is unpredictable
This Zhang Wenying is a lieutenant general.
The official position is not low.
Ranked below the chief military officer, he is already one of the few senior military attaches in the entire Liaodong.
Now a person like him is also a character who can make the ground tremble by stomping his feet in Liaodong.
What's more, after every lieutenant general, the ghost knows what kind of person is behind him, and there is at least one governor behind it, and maybe, it is not necessary that people have a lot to do with a certain Shangshu.
Not to mention, often under the adjutant general, there are several battalions of soldiers and horses, as well as their own families.
Like Zhang Wenying, he eats a lot of empty pay on weekdays, but although the military attache eats a lot of empty salary, it is unambiguous to raise a family.
House slaves are wealth in Liaodong, and the more house slaves, the greater the wealth, after all, force can be realized.
This Zhang Wenying has more than 700 families!
There are more than 700 domestic slaves, all of whom have been raised by him with big shoulders and round waists, and they are all people who depend on him.
It is impossible for a person like this to be killed easily, because once he is killed, there may be chaos.
This is like Yuan Chonghuan in history who killed Mao Wenlong, Mao Wenlong was the chief military officer, and when he died, the entire Dongjiang Town immediately collapsed!
Many people who followed Mao Wenlong immediately voted for Jiannu, and these people even became the main force to enter the customs for a time, such as the famous Geng Jingzhong, Shang Kexi, Kong Youde, etc.
In other words, Yuan Chonghuan's killing of Mao Wenlong directly contributed three merits to the Jiannu people, so that they could be ranked as kings, and as for other people who descended to Jiannu after Mao Wenlong's death and made great contributions to Jiannu, there are countless people.
It can be seen from this that the destructive power is huge.
In fact, there is a reason why the imperial court is afraid of these chief military officers and deputy generals in Liaodong, these people are intertwined, and there are too many people who depend on them for survival.
Once you kill someone rashly, even if the rest of the people are incorporated into other military horses, it will be difficult to control, not to mention that they themselves have also deviated from morality, after all, no matter where they are transferred, in their hearts, they are not the other party's descendants after all, what future is there at all?
And in Liaodong, if you don't have a backer in the army, it means that every time you charge into battle, you will be sent to death, and every time you invite merit and receive a reward, you have to stand aside.
Once this kind of personal dependence relationship becomes a habit, these military leaders who have been operating in Liaodong for so many years will naturally become characters that cannot be easily touched, especially in the current enemy.
And that Zhang Wenying, at first, thought that it was just to scare him, so he cried out in his mouth, but he was not afraid.
Until he was dragged out of the tent like a dead dog.
A few axemen were waiting outside, and then the men were tied up like dead pigs and pressed on the bench, with only one head hanging outside the stool.
Then, the sword-and-axe hand directly raised the sharp axe.
At this time, Zhang Wenying realized that this was not a joke, it was really terrible......
So he turned pale in shock and hurriedly shouted: "Help, help...... I...... I...... Spare my life, I have wronged...... Yuan Gong, the general soldier ......"
The sharp axe chopped it directly, and the head was like an open melon, separated from the body, and rolled to the ground alone.
His voice had died abruptly.
Soon, someone came in with his head and said, "Your Majesty, Teacher...... Zhang Wenying was ambushed. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't have the slightest expression on his face, just squinted, still sitting there without moving, as if he was indifferent to this.
Zhang Jingyi nodded and said: "Hang outside the camp, immediately pass on the local brocade guards, raid the house and take people, don't leak the news, and don't make mistakes!" ”
"Whoa."
At this time...... There was a biting chill in the big tent.
Yuan Chonghuan never expected that things were much worse than he imagined, this Zhang Wenying was quite valued by him on weekdays, but he was a general in the Liaodong Army, and now he ...... At the sound of the order, the head fell to the ground.
He couldn't calm down anymore, and his heart suddenly became panicked, the deputy general is like this, isn't it difficult for him to escape the blame as a governor?
He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Thousands of deaths. ”
That Man Gui was already frightened, and he didn't dare to look directly at the Emperor of the Apocalypse at this time.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse remained silent, deaf to the pleas of these civil ministers and military generals.
He picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it slowly, and the only sound in the tent was him uncovering the tea lid and blowing the tea foam.
Zhang Jingyi said again: "Staff generals Liu Long, Zhang Jianyi, guerrilla generals Wang Xin, Zhao Ye ......"
He gave out name after name with a blank face.
It's just that at this time, no one dares to respond.
The person who is named is either a fart or a...... It is just fainting.
Immediately afterwards, the students began to identify them one by one and dragged them out directly.
At this time, one after another screams rose one after another outside this big tent.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty ...... "Yuan Chonghuan ...... at this time Where is there still half of the majesty of the feudal officials, looking frightened, knelt on the ground, kowtowed like garlic and said: "Minister...... Ten thousand deaths, ten thousand deaths...... Ministers shouldn't hide it from Your Majesty......"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse only said lightly: "Don't worry, your business, you can say it slowly, the accounts always have to be calculated one by one......"
Yuan Chonghuan was full of thoughts, and said in fear: "Minister...... Minister......"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled, but today's smile seemed calm and relaxed: "Didn't the Qing family say that blaming the generals of Liaodong will cause people's hearts to fluctuate and make the big guys chill?" Not only will I blame today, but I will also kill people! Not only one person, but also their families, I really want to see how they deviate from morality, how they make the hearts of the people in Liaodong float, and what kind of chaos will be caused. ”
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment before he said: "If there is really something wrong, then come on, I can kill Jiannu, can't I kill you traitors?" How does it compare to that Emperor Taiji? ”
Huang Taiji was held outside the tent, and seeing that the Emperor of the Apocalypse ordered people to pull one person after another to kill, the tone of the Emperor of the Apocalypse in this tent was still relaxed, as if this killing was commonplace, and he didn't even need to blink his eyes.
At this time, Huang Taiji's heart also became gloomy, and he suddenly found that this great tomorrow was not as simple as he thought before.
But when he heard that sentence about how he compared to Huang Taiji, Huang Taiji suddenly felt his heart blocked.
Heart-piercing......
The voice of the Emperor of the Apocalypse sounded again at this time: "If you want to make trouble, make trouble!" After spending so much money and food, I always wonder whether you are the Ming army or the people who built slaves, even if they are slaves, although they also conquer cities, they will not eat my blood or gnaw my flesh. Rather than raising you waste, I might as well break my wrist as a strong man. ”
"Didn't Yuan Qing's family say, do you want to deviate from morality? Centrifugal detachment is also very good, but you can go to Jiannu, and see if Jiannu can afford to support you, if you can also spend four or five million taels of silver a year in Jiannu, you can eat their millions of stone grain, can eat the empty salary of the Jiannu people, this can be regarded as a great contribution to my Ming Dynasty, and when I plow the court in the future, and shovel this Jiannu people clean, maybe I will remember your great achievements! This merit is much higher than that of you in Ningyuan and Jinzhou in the city, guarding the border for me, and I will reward you one by one. ”
Zhang Jingyi: "......"
Zhang Jingyi was on the side, and couldn't help but be speechless, saying this as if Daming was raising a group of pigs now.
When Yuan Chonghuan and the others heard this, they were so ashamed that they couldn't bear to be ashamed, and they just wanted to find a crack in the ground and get in.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse continued: "I will tell you the truth, I really don't plan to give you this year's and next year's salaries and military rations, it's not that you can't afford to raise soldiers, the money and food for raising soldiers are in your own private treasury, what about me, copy them one by one, and look, Zhuqing is poor on weekdays, see how much silver you have, how much grain you hide, and how many private soldiers you have?" I want to know where my money and food have gone! ”
Speaking of this, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was furious again: "In order to raise this money and grain, I sent eunuchs to various places to guard and collect mining taxes. The people in this pass all hate me so much that they say that I am competing with them for profit. In order to feed you, I have increased my salary, forcing many people to be destitute, and they all scolded me for being a faint king. I am a faint king in the pass, in exchange for you to be happy here? ”
"I'll tell you the truth, such a good day is over, you one by one, either dig three feet into the ground and spit out my money and grain, or ...... Just go to Jiannu, I will ask Huang Taiji to repair a book, recommend it for you, you take Huang Taiji's letter, go to see the Jiannu people, by the way, and also pass on a word on behalf of me, your good days are over, and their good days are also over. ”
Yuan Chonghuan is already burned inside, where in the world is there anyone who forces his own people to join the enemy.
What is this, this is a great shame.
As a feudal official, the governor of Liaodong, hasn't this become a big joke?
He kowtowed, choked up at this time, and said, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, the minister is guilty of a capital offense... The minister and the slave are not together, the minister has been in Liaodong for many years, and he is unarmed, so he is really ashamed to ...... Your Majesty."
The Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't look the slightest moved, but said, "Isn't it easy to die?" But if you want to live, it's very rare! You know Liaodong well, if you really want to correct it, then ...... Just do one thing for me. ”
Yuan Chonghuan felt more and more that the Emperor of the Apocalypse was unpredictable, and at this time he was only sincerely afraid, he was actually more afraid that the Emperor of the Apocalypse would find out that he had communicated with Huang Taiji.
Therefore, Yuan Chonghuan could only tremble at this time: "Please show your majesty." ”
"Kill." The Emperor of the Apocalypse had a cold face, his eyes were like ice, and he said word by word: "Kill someone for me, if you don't kill you, I will kill you, and punish your three clans." ”0
