The Zoroastrian Uighurs lived in groups for generations for religious reasons. Someone ascended to the top and shouted, and immediately gathered a large force. Only a few hundred people started to make trouble, but the elder was so angry that he immediately mobilized several thousand people when he returned to the temple.

When the garrison Wang He was unprepared, the military camp immediately fell.

Thousands of Uighurs stormed the camp in a frenzy, killing the defenders with knives and clubs and robbing weapons. When the 100 garrisons were slaughtered, the Uighurs rushed into the streets armed with weapons.

"Let the Han people see blood, and every household will be extinct!" With two revolvers in his hands, Bai Yanhu roared and rushed into the street. He was originally Zhang Xianzhong's subordinate, and now he is even more ruthless when he kills people.

Lantian County quickly fell into a panic, and the billowing smoke could be seen clearly in Chang'an City.

When Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, heard the news, he almost sat on the ground. A few Uighurs rebelled, and it was not a problem in the past. The third division of Zu Dashou is in Xi'an, and whoever dares to stab his eyes will do it directly. When it comes to equipment training, a few peasants rebelled, and that was looking for death.

But now Zu Dashou's third division followed Li Xiao's westward expedition, and there were only two garrison divisions and some local regimental training in the whole of Shaanxi. Combined, there are only more than 7,000 people. And half of these 7,000 people were guarding the city of Xi'an, and the other half were sprinkled all over Shanxi like pepper noodles. I want to gather for a while, but I don't even think about it.

"Close the gates of the city, and immediately encircle and suppress the Uighur settlements with all the soldiers in the city. Men and women, young and old, all of them should be taken care of. Sun Chuanting knew that because all the Uighurs believed in Zoroastrianism, they were very grouped on weekdays. In this situation, if you want to hold Xi'an, you must first ensure that the Uighurs in Xi'an do not make trouble.

"Do you want to notify the marshal immediately and let the marshal return to Shaanxi?" The governor of Shaanxi, who hurried over, asked.

"What else do you need to say?" Sun Chuanting looked at the governor like nothing, and he was all under the nose of Xi'an, so he didn't hurry up to inform the marshal.

"On the one hand, inform the marshal, and on the other hand, inform the court. Fast! ”

At the same time, after the Uighurs seized the military camp. Ren Wu and He Mingtang were not idle, and in the name of the Great Elder, they gathered the Uighurs around Xi'an. In recent years, the Uighurs and the Han people have been very incompatible with each other because of the competition between land, water sources, and commerce. Now there were people taking the lead, and the Uighur leaders in Xianyang, Wugong, Zhouzhi, Huxian, Lintong, Yanliang and other places around Xi'an jointly raised troops.

In addition to Ren Wu, Hong Xing, and He Mingtang, there are Ma Zhenghe, Ma Siyuan, Bai Yanhu, Ma Shengyan, Yu Deyan, Yu Yanlu, Sun Yubao, Erhezhou, etc. Some of them were landlords, merchants, imams, and other Uighur figures.

The Uighurs gathered more than 50,000 people at once, and the torches raised by the Zoroastrian gatherings at night illuminated the dragon's head like a starry sky, and the momentum was so great that Sun Chuanting, who was guarding the city wall, had his jaw falling to the ground.

"Why are so many people gathered?" Sun Chuanting's fingers trembled and pointed to the torches outside that were more than stars.

"My lord, the Uighurs are in a group. Because a few years ago, they rebelled with Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong and others. In recent years, the government has mainly suppressed the government, and the marshal has promoted the Han people to rule the world. When there was a conflict in various places, all the officials and families judged the case against the Han people. The Uighurs had long been dissatisfied, and now they just threw a torch on top of the dry wood. The prefect of Xi'an sighed helplessly.

"You are the prefect of Xi'an, the marshal said that once the case was judged, how could such a thing happen!" was worried that he couldn't find the object of his anger, and Sun Chuanting suddenly became high.

"Your Excellency! Xiaguan is just the prefect of Xi'an, you can inquire. This is not only the case in Xi'an, but also in Shaanxi, Gansu, and even some places in Shanxi. A few years ago, the Uighurs rebelled with Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, and these Uighurs followed many people.

You go and ask, is there anyone in the whole Guan who didn't die in that turmoil? The big guys have hatred in their hearts! If you expect them to have a bowl of water and do not deliberately frame these Uighurs, you have not read the books of the sages in vain.

When I speak, the people below are disobedient, who really listens! "The prefect of Xi'an can't help it, the entire officialdom is like this. I heard that in the south, the officials there bullied the barbarians even more harshly. Man Ye marched into Qinghai once, and the Tubo people there were almost killed.

"Tell you! In any case, it is necessary to guard the railway station and the surrounding warehouses. Xi'an is a transit point for the army, and if something happens to these arms, your heads together are not enough to cut off. Sun Chuanting was choked and speechless, and shouted angrily.

"Your Excellency the Governor, what's the use of us guarding the station. You see, the railroad tracks were demolished by the Uighurs. The governor of Shaanxi pointed to the train track in the distance, and almost cried.

Sun Chuanting saw that the Uighurs in the distance, who were dismantling the train tracks, were also crying without tears. Now the Liao army relies on trains for transport, and if the train is not working, it is simply a fool's dream to get reinforcements as soon as possible.

Besides, he knows that there are four field divisions of the empire. One is in Fujian and is preparing to go to the South Seas. The three followed Li Xiao to the Western Regions, and heard that they were resting after defeating Hami. In the entire Ming Empire, the rest are garrison divisions guarding the place.

These garrisons were not only poorly equipped, but also poorly staffed.

I heard that many of the garrison divisions of the Huguang generation were adapted from the original Ming army, and the weapons they held were still broadswords and spears, and they didn't even take advantage of a firecracker. It is better to expect these soldiers to fight than to expect the sow to go up the tree.

In fact! These soldiers are just in charge of local security, and no one really wants them to fight. For the army that is not the descendant of the Liao army, the imperial court weapons are very strictly controlled. They wanted to get a breech flintlock pistol, but it was all against all odds.

"I hope that the commander can return to the army as soon as possible, otherwise the Uighur rebellion will really become bigger, and the possibility of them attacking Xi'an cannot be ruled out. Now in Xi'an City, there are only about 5,000 people who can take up arms and go up the city wall. If you want to defend such a large city, these soldiers are far from enough. ”

"The Governor has ordered that all the regiments around Xi'an should enter the city to help defend the city, and that Xi'an must not fall into the hands of the Uighurs."

While Sun Chuanting was trembling and guarding the city wall, the Uighur leaders also gathered on the Dragon Shouyuan to discuss what to do next.

"Let's be like a way, otherwise when Li Dashuai's army comes back, we will all have to finish the game."

"What are you afraid of! As long as we Uighurs unite and have more than two million people, are we still afraid of him and a Li Xiao? ”

"More than two million people, you didn't dig out the old and weak women and children. At this point, I have to think of a way out for the big guys. Otherwise, with the temperament of the Liao army, we will slaughter Lantian County, and when they come back, we will ......! ”

"What are you afraid of! Let's take down this Xi'an city, Xi'an City has a large army of military funds, not only a large amount of food, but also a mountain of munitions. As long as we have these weapons, we can also pull up the team.

If we can't beat it, let's go west. All the way through Qinghai to southern Xinjiang, that is our place. The Uyghurs there are brothers who believe in the same religion, and there are Tianshan Mountains far away from the sky, even Li Xiao can't do anything to us. ”

"Southern Xinjiang? Have you been? ”

"I've heard that the Uyghurs in southern Xinjiang are also brothers who believe in our Zoroastrianism."

"Brothers, you want to attack Xi'an. We must first pull out the minions of Xi'an City, and we can't stay in the villages along Weishui Bashui. It must be killed, burned, and robbed. Not only can it help us raise military funds and food, but it can also keep us from being attacked by the Han people on both sides. ”

Bai Yanhu stood up with a fierce face: "I think what Elder He said is right, how angry we have been by the Han people over the years, even if we have to finish playing in the future, we have to kill them first." ”

"That's right! The anger we have suffered over the years cannot be in vain. Immediately the crowd was furious.

Over the years, many Uighurs had had grown fed up with the Han Chinese. Now I want to redress my grievances for many years, and I immediately responded.

"Good! Let's kill along Weishui, and kill, burn, and rob all the Han villages we pass by. Damn, even if it's death, the brothers will die happily. ”

"Hahaha!"

Bai Yanhu sat down and felt very good. After so many years, it is the first time I have tasted the feeling of being in a hurry.

"Without further ado, let's take everyone out at once." At the command of Ren Wu, the Uighurs, under the leadership of their chief, began to slaughter villages along Weishui.

"Strategist! Let's go, too. Bai Yanhu pulled a big man beside him and said with a smile, what he said just now was taught by this military teacher. Worthy of being a learned person!

"You go first, I'll take the people to continue dismantling the train tracks. Only by dismantling the train could the Han army not be able to advance into Guanzhong as soon as possible. ”

Looking at the mighty team walking out, a smile appeared on the corner of Ren Wu's mouth.

"Dolgon! I have done everything I can do, whether I can defend the Western Regions and keep the last retreat of the Aixin Jueluo family is up to you. Facing the team that set off like a fire dragon, Ren Wu muttered quietly.

"Oh no! Your Excellency, the Uighurs have gone along the Weishui. On the city wall, the sharp-eyed prefect of Xi'an shouted as he pointed to the Uighurs marching like a fiery dragon.

"What are they going to do?" The governor of Shaanxi asked puzzled.

"It's not like you want to slaughter the village......!" Everyone listened to the words of the governor of Shaanxi, and their hearts were tight.

The surrounding garrison forces have now all been collected into Xi'an City. The Han villages along Weishui are now completely unprotected. Even if there were some rural warriors, they could not be the match of tens of thousands of Uighurs. For a Uighur population of tens of thousands, it was very easy to slaughter a village.

This is not Liaodong, and the villages there are all walled. Guanzhong Zhuangzi, who has ever heard of a city wall.

"That's ......! Fast......! Send someone to deliver the letter, so that the people can flee quickly. ”

"It's too late!" Sun Chuanting closed his eyes in pain, he knew that it was too late now.

"Then look at the Uighurs so ......! When the time comes, the court will blame it, this ......! The governor of Shaanxi glanced at Sun Chuanting, the last incident at the Baita Temple failed to bring down the governor Sun, but he didn't know if the Uighur rebellion would be safe and sound.

"Rest assured! This time, I, Sun Chuanting, will bear it with all my might. If the court blames it, it will naturally be my Sun Chuanting to atone for the crime. As long as you hold the city of Xi'an and save the lives of the fathers and elders in Xi'an's more than 2 million passes, my Sun Chuanting will be grateful. Sun Chuanting's tears flowed down his cheeks.

This night can be described as a night of blood and fire for the Han people on both sides of the Weishui. Tens of thousands of Uighurs rushed into Han Chinese villages as if they were locusts crossing the border. When you see people, you kill them, you rob them, and you burn them.

A beautiful woman, when the turn is over, it is a knife in the head. He also put a stick on his lower body, and threw the child in his arms into the fire. Regardless of the child's mother's heartbreaking, a group of people surrounded her with her clothes stripped off.

Some of the men in the village the guy and resisted, but it was just farm tools and kitchen knives. Unlike the Uighurs, Hermes-Epitek did not have weapons at home. Even if some kung fu is high, one can be ten. However, the defeat of one and ten was not enough to stop the Uighurs from killing.

On this night, the fires on both sides of Weishui soared into the sky and screamed miserably. The tears of the Han people flowed for a night, and the blood also flowed for a night.

The next morning, everyone was dumbfounded when they saw Weishui. The river was littered with corpses, like stakes of wood. The shore is even more scorched and black, and in some places there is still smoke drifting away.

Charred houses, charred land, charred corpses.

Many villages were wiped out in their sleep, and there were hundreds of people in the village, and not even a single doll in the confinement was left. These Uighurs actually killed for the sake of killing, and many even disdained robbery and female bows.

On this night alone, no less than 60,000 Han people were martyred.

The dawn did not stop the locust-like people from continuing to kill, and these people made breakfast with the stolen food. Without even resting, they continued their murderous business against the rising sun.

The resentment accumulated over the years filled them with fighting spirit. Although in the course of the massacre, there was basically no fighting. Killing those Han people is not much different from killing chickens and sheep.

In broad daylight, the Uighurs brought out the ugliest human slaughter to the extreme. In every village, there are piles of Han Chinese corpses, including men, women, gray-haired old men, and dolls with pigtails and Afu heads.

Fireworks wafted on the edge of the Weishui, and the stench of scorching corpses wafted throughout the water. Everything was carried out in broad daylight, as if the killings were as righteous as the Uighur leaders had claimed.

"Push all those Uighurs up, and we'll kill them too......!"

At the head of Xi'an, the villagers guarding the city had tears in their eyes. Under his feet was a three- or five-year-old Uighur doll, a long knife raised, and a cavity of blood sprayed out in the sunlight.

With a hard kick, the little corpse fell to the city like rag dolls.
