Chapter 355 Zhu Di showdown, beheading Zuo Liangyu, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Cihong, Ma Shiying, Qian Qianyi......
Zhu Di held the holy decree in his hand and shouted loudly.
There was majesty in his voice.
With solemnity.
His eyes fell on Zuo Liangyu's body, waiting to see Zuo Liangyu's reaction.
Zuo Liangyu listened to Zhu Di's words, and felt Zhu Di's gaze on him, so he knelt down directly after a little hesitation.
He said loudly: "Minister, Zuo Liangyu takes the order!" ”
Zuo Mengeng and dozens of generals under Zuo Liangyu's command, as well as three hundred knives and axes, also bowed down one after another.
All of a sudden, there were people kneeling on the ground all around.
Only Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and the hundred guards brought by Zhu Di were still standing, which was very conspicuous.
Seeing this, Zhu Di's majestic gaze withdrew from Zuo Liangyu's body.
He opened the decree and read it aloud: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says:
Nanning Bozuo Liangyu is loyal and does not avoid dangers and obstacles......
Special addition to Zuo Liangyu as the Marquis of Nanning, appointed as the squire of the military department......"
After the holy decree was read, Zuo Liangyu, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned.
You actually want to promote yourself to the Marquis of Nanning?!
And let yourself be the squire of the military department?
This...... That's a big gift, isn't it?!
Even Zuo Liangyu had many ideas before this.
But I didn't expect that happiness would come so suddenly!
Twenty days ago, he had just been promoted to Nanning Bo and had a knighthood.
As a result, how long has it been, and in the blink of an eye, the family itself has become the Marquis of Nanning!
The speed of this promotion is really fast!
The most important thing is that I haven't done anything!
just took the soldiers and swayed around Wuchang, and did not go to rescue Chongzhen at all.
Originally, he thought that the people who came were so aggressive, and before they entered the mansion, they first showed the heads of twenty or thirty court officials to themselves at one time.
Even the heads of the former military department Shangshu, as well as Cheng Guogong and others, were brought over!
Emperor Chongzhen, there are still so many soldiers and horses to follow.
Even Wu Sangui's tens of thousands of Guan Ning troops followed south.
Then at this time, Chongzhen is likely to be very tough!
Maybe at this time, he will send a messenger to punish his sins.
But how could he have thought that Chongzhen not only did not punish the crime, but also directly promoted himself to a big official!
The title became the Marquis of Nanning, and the position became the squire of the military department!
I jumped over the dragon gate this time!
This happiness came so suddenly!
And Zuo Mengeng, who was behind Zuo Liangyu, also looked stunned.
He also didn't expect that after the arrival of the imperial court envoy, the big gift he gave his father would be so big!
Not long ago, the battle caused by the arrival of the imperial envoy made him a little apprehensive, afraid that his father would annoy the imperial envoy if he made this outcome.
But the end result is this!
After being stunned, boundless joy rose from my heart!
That's great!
My father became the Marquis of Nanning, so my achievements in the future will definitely be not small!
More importantly, at this moment, he felt that what his father had taught him before was really correct!
At this time, there is really no need to respect the imperial court like that.
When it's time to show off your strength, you need to show it.
His father did this, and the court not only did not blame him, but on the contrary, there was such a big reward.
It's enough to prove that what my father said is right!
Now, the way of the world has really changed, and having soldiers and horses in your hands is the most important thing!
and the imperial court, we must grasp a good degree, neither can we listen to the words of the imperial court, but also cannot listen to the words of the imperial court too much.
If you are about to leave, you can only get the most out of it by maintaining a delicate balance.
Learned!
Learned!
I've really learned this time!
"Minister, Zuo Liangyu! Thank you for the grace of the saint, and the minister will continue to be loyal to the country in the future and serve the dead! ”
After Zuo Liangyu was stunned, he immediately shouted the order.
Although the reward given by the imperial court was a little too sudden, and some too big.
But after Zuo Liangyu was surprised, he would soon become a matter of course.
He felt that now was the time to employ people.
Chongzhen even lost the capital, so at this time, in order to win the hearts of the people, it is good to give some more rewards to a general like himself who commands the army.
This thing can be done by Chongzhen now.
At the same time, it also strengthened his confidence that he would carry forward his previous style in many things in the future.
Everything is based on preserving their own strength.
As long as you can keep so many soldiers and horses.
Even if he is an emperor, he has to offer himself, and he doesn't dare to really use himself strongly!
Now, it's the best witness!
Zhu Di handed over the holy decree in his hand to Zuo Liangyu.
Looking at Zuo Liangyu's appearance, he sneered in his heart.
Let Zuo Liang be happy first.
This is not the only holy decree I brought with me this time!
Zhu Di immediately took out another holy decree, and then began to announce it.
This made Zuo Liangyu and the rest of the people stunned for a moment, how could there be? ?
"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said:
The soldiers under the command of the Marquis of Nanning, most of them are loyal and brave people, and the national disaster is at the head, just when the loyal and brave people are loyal to the country.
From now on, those who support the imperial court, serve the country loyally, and obey the orders of the imperial court will be paid two taels per month.
For the rest of the generals, the salary has quadrupled on the original basis.
All officers are promoted to one level!
All the soldiers who support the Ming Dynasty and obey the orders of the Ming Dynasty can receive twenty acres of paddy fields in the future!
Chin this! ”
Zhu Di's eyes swept over everyone, and after the voice fell, there was silence around him.
However, this extremely quiet scene only lasted for a short time, and immediately erupted into a burst of cheers!
Most of these cheers were made by the axemen.
Zuo Liangyu brought. Among the dozens of middle and high-ranking generals, there are also many people with happy faces.
This time, the emperor is really generous, and he has rewarded so much at once!
What a good thing!
And they are not worried that the imperial court will run out of money.
After all, this messenger said it very clearly.
The emperor and others had raided the homes of many rebellious ministers and thieves in Beiping City before.
Brought out nearly 20 million taels of silver!
What is this concept?
The court has money in its hands, and it is in a time of crisis, and it needs soldiers and horses.
Will definitely do what he says!
Only Zuo Liangyu, as well as a few people, were somewhat stunned at this time.
It felt like something was wrong.
What does this separate decree mean?
What is the meaning of a loyal and brave man who is ordered by the imperial court to receive these treatments?
Why is this deliberately emphasized?
Court...... What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?!
It's another knighthood for himself, and then there is such a show?
And there are some people who react relatively quickly, and at this time they have figured out something unusual.
Some people wanted to speak, but Zhu Di didn't give them a chance to speak.
Once again, he took out a decree and began to read it.
Those who wanted to say something had to suppress some doubts in their hearts.
At the same time, he also looked very confused, how could there be a holy decree here?
How many decrees did this person bring?
As Zhu Di opened the new holy decree, the scene became quiet.
This time, the holy decree read by Zhu Di had nothing to do with these people present.
But before that, Chongzhen wrote that Wu Sangui's sister and Wu Xiang's daughter Xu was married to the crown prince Zhu Cihong as his wife, and became the holy decree of the crown prince's concubine.
After such a holy decree was recited, Zuo Liangyu and the generals under Zuo Liangyu's command.
It's all a huge shock in my heart.
Most of the people who can reach their position know a lot of things.
Most of them can understand the weight of such a decree.
If before this, Zuo Liangyu and these generals under his command felt that Wu Sangui could lead the soldiers and horses to follow the emperor Nanxing.
It's just that it greatly increases the weight of the emperor's side and threatens them here.
Then at this time, this sense of urgency is even stronger!
My heart is even heavier.
Guan Ningjun is now a well-deserved elite of the Ming Dynasty.
It's really a fight, and neither of them is an opponent on their side.
If it was in the past, Guan Ningjun might not have particularly obeyed the emperor's orders, and if something really happened, he would not have beaten them to the death.
But now, after such a holy decree was recited, they suddenly felt that there was a big difference in it!
After all, Wu Xiang's daughter became the crown princess.
The meaning of this is very different!
Wu Sangui will become a serious relative of the emperor, or the kind with heavy troops.
In this case, Wu Sangui will inevitably obey the emperor's orders.
In the future, if I really do something, I will do something.
The Guan Ning army on Wu Sangui's side is really good at killing strength!
There are few people here who want to fight Guan Ningjun.
The Guan Ning Army is on the front line of Shanhaiguan, facing the extremely murderous Tartars!
The real elite on their side is only more than 10,000 people.
Even if they are these elites, they are not as good as Guan Ningjun as a whole!
The Guan Ning army has tens of thousands of people!
Both in terms of quality and quantity, there is a big difference!
At this time, Zuo Liangyu had already come back to his senses.
Knowing the person in front of him, the reason why the envoy of the court read such a holy decree!
Is this a knock and a warning on your side?
I gave sweet dates before, but this time I gave a stick.
Chongzhen's current methods, how have they improved a lot?
"Messenger, I don't understand something.
Wu Sangui has a heavy army, and according to the etiquette system, it is impossible for Wu Sangui's sister to become the crown princess.
Cabinet members will certainly not agree.
How to ...... now? How to ......"
Zuo Liangyu must confirm this matter.
It's not okay if you don't figure it out.
The stakes are too significant.
It is related to some of his future choices.
"Are you questioning the Divine Decree?"
Zhu Di looked at Zuo Liangyu and said.
Zuo Liangyu shook his head again and again, indicating that he didn't dare.
Zhu Di said: "The situation is very different now than before.
The mountains and rivers are broken, and there is no need to be as rigid and dogmatic as before.
For example, Nanning Hou, if you can't do this Nanning Hou in the past! ”
Zhu Di said this, and after knocking Zuo Liangyu, he still gave Zuo Liangyu the holy decree in his hand and asked Zuo Liangyu to see it.
After all, the holy decree in his hand is true, and he is not afraid of Zuo Liangyu to see it.
Even if Zuo Liangyu didn't ask about this sentence, Zhu Di would take the initiative to let Zuo Liangyu see the holy decree.
Only Zuo Liangyu has seen it, so he can let Zuo Liangyu here, with these generals under the command of Zuo Liangyu, including the three hundred sword and axe men who arranged here here, I believe that these are true.
And whether or not you can convince them that this is true is important for the next action.
Zhu Di looks reckless in doing things, but in fact, many things are very detailed.
It's not just reckless.
After Zuo Liangyu received the holy decree, he called his son Zuo Mengeng to watch it together and study it carefully.
In the end, it was confirmed that this decree was true!
It's not just the middle order!
The rest of the officers also knew that this holy decree was true through the reaction of Zuo Liangyu's father and son.
That means the news is true!
Suddenly, many people's hearts have become different!
At the same time, I was a little confused.
After the emperor moved south, how did he look so different?
How can the majesty of the emperor be better now than before?
At least on their side.
Before, they were far away from the Emperor of the Sky, and no one around them could suppress them.
Now tens of thousands of Guanning troops have come all of a sudden, and the key is that the leader of this Guanning army has also become a relative of the emperor.
Then this thing is a little difficult to do!
After taking back this holy decree, Zhu Di raised his hand behind his back.
Immediately, there was another strong man, carrying a dozen or so boxes.
Such a scene suddenly made Zuo Liangyu, as well as the generals under Zuo Liangyu, a little stunned.
There was some nervousness in my heart.
This...... Isn't this court envoy going to take someone's head??
I used to get twenty or thirty at once.
They are all extremely heavy people.
Why is this now, and the box is taken out again?
That...... And whose head is it this time??
Where did he get so many heads??
If you kill like this, the court must not be emptied by half??
Zhu Di opened the box and fell to the ground, and suddenly more than a dozen people's heads gurgled and turned.
Each of these heads also had its name written on it.
Seeing that it was really a human head, these people were immediately surprised.
This...... Why does this emperor look different from before?
This...... Whose head was cut off again?!
Zhu Di's gaze swept over these people, and then he spoke: "Don't worry, these are not the heads of the senior members of the DPRK.
but the head of the thief.
The saint left Beiping City before, and the thieves naturally would not give up.
The soldiers came in pursuit in two directions.
Two generals were sent to chase after him with a total of 8,000 old battalion soldiers.
The general of the road waved the flag for Hao, and the general of the road was happy for his son Li Shuangxi! ”
As soon as he heard Zhu Di's words, Zuo Liangyu and many generals under his command suddenly raised their hearts!
Some people have already sweated for the imperial court.
Most of them had fought against the thieves and horses in Zhuxian Town a few months ago.
In that scene, Zuo Liangyu was beaten really miserably.
The family under his hands has basically been wiped out.
They were really miserable with this blow.
For those famous generals under Li Zicheng, as well as the old battalion soldiers under Li Zicheng, he was really impressed.
These people are very fierce!
As a result, now, when Emperor Chongzhen was fortunate in the south, Li Zicheng actually sent Li Shuangxi and Hao Shaoqi to chase after him with 8,000 old battalion soldiers.
That's damning!
Many people are worried about whether the imperial court can escape this catastrophe.
But then I remembered that the emperor had gone south safely, and the court envoy poured out a bunch of heads.
This...... Could it be ......?!!
Zhu Di glanced at these heads under his feet a few times, and then saw one of them, and with a single pick of his foot, the head flew towards Zuo Liangyu and fell to his side.
"This is Li Shuangxi's head! Nanning Hou also take a look to see if it is him. ”
Li Shuangxi's head??
As soon as these words came out, everyone was immediately shocked.
Even Zuo Liangyu and Zuo Mengeng are the same.
They are too familiar with this Li Shuangxi.
This person is Li Zicheng's righteous son, and he is extremely capable of fighting.
Li Zicheng now occupies the city of Beiping and becomes the Emperor of Dashun.
Then it is very likely that this Li Shuangxi will inherit the throne in the future,
But now, Li Shuangxi's head has been cut off??
Zuo Liangyu held back the shock in his heart, and lowered his head to take a closer look, this pickled head.
I really saw the familiarity from above.
After all, he was there in Zhuxian Town, but he had a good fight with Li Zicheng.
"This is a general under Li Shuangxi, named ......"
Zhu Di said, and kicked the dozen or so heads one by one at the generals under Zuo Liangyu.
Let them watch.
Let's see if it's true.
These heads that can be brought over by Zhu Di are all characters with heads and faces under Li Zicheng.
These dozen or so heads are all inside, all of them are Hao Shaoqi, as well as those middle and senior generals under Li Shuangxi.
They all have names and surnames.
These people, Zuo Liangyu and the generals under Zuo Liangyu, some can recognize them, and some can't.
But without exception, everyone who can recognize it has found that these heads are actually real!
This...... How so?
It's amazing!!
This is Li Shuangxi, as well as the elite in many old camps, the existence of the number one!
He was beheaded like this!
Could it be ...... This is what Guan Ningjun did?
"Messenger, I don't know...... I don't know how Hao Shaoqi is?
Did he run away? ”
Zuo Liangyu's voice seemed a little dry and asked.
For this Hao Shaoqi, Zuo Liangyu and others were still quite impressed.
This guy is really brave in battle.
If Hao Shaoqi can't fall well, then this time it will be even more amazing!
"Hao Shaoqi was not killed."
Zhu Di's voice rang out.
Hearing Zhu Di say this, Zuo Liangyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Hao Shaoqi was not killed.
If Hao Shaoqi is also killed, then this incident is really shocking!!
It's alarming!
"Hao Shaoqi was captured, he is grateful for the emperor's grace, and now he has become a loyal man of my Ming Dynasty?"
What?!
Hao Shaoqi was actually captured alive? Also surrendered to the imperial court?!
Why does this sound so unrealistic?
Zuo Liangyu, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was almost not flashed to his waist by this sudden turn!
Zhu Di turned his head to look, and the strong man beside him who brought more than a dozen heads said, "General Hao, let's meet them!" ”
When Hao Shaoqi heard this, he also saluted respectfully to Zhu Di and said, "Yes, His Royal Highness King Yan!" ”
As he spoke, he took off the helmet he was wearing on his head.
Said loudly: "I am Hao Shaoqi!" ”
With that, he looked left and right, and walked over to a stone bench of appropriate size.
This stone bench weighs two hundred pounds, to say the least.
As long as Hao Shaoqi walked to him, held it with one hand, exhaled and made a sound, and suddenly exerted his strength, and directly lifted it above his head!
After holding it for a moment, he threw it on the ground.
There was a bang, and everyone present couldn't help but shake in their hearts!
Zuo Liangyu, as well as Zuo Mengeng, and these generals under his command.
Including the three hundred knife and axe hands, they were all stunned at this time!
It's true?!
It's true?!
Is this really Hao Shaoqi?!
These are the words that echo back and forth in many people's minds.
His appearance, as well as the amazing strength he just showed, all told everyone his identity.
In front of many people's eyes, there was a scene of Hao Shaoqi, when Li Zicheng was under his command, leading soldiers and horses, carrying a big banner, and rushing to kill them.
Many people's hearts are shocked!
If Wu Sangui became a relative of the emperor before, it had a strong impact on the hearts of these people.
The news obtained at this time had a greater impact on them!
On the side of the imperial court, even the old battalion soldiers of Dashun can kill so miserably.
What if it was the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, facing them?
Zhu Di then told these people in more detail about the previous battle against Hao Shaoqi and the killing of Li Shuangxi.
The hearts of those who listened trembled!
Although many people, especially Zuo Liangyu, don't want to admit that this is true.
But all this shows that this is true!
After all, Li Shuangxi's head is here, and Hao Shaoqi, a fierce general who should have belonged to Li Zicheng, also appeared in front of them.
And with great respect for the messenger.
That says a lot!
Next, Zhu Di stopped pretending, and told everyone present that Emperor Taizu Gao appeared to save the Daming River and Mountain, and that he was Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
Originally, Zuo Liangyu and others had enough exciting news in a short period of time.
How could I have thought that at this time, I actually got a more exciting one!!
This leaves many people dumbfounded.
People, including Zuo Liangyu, instinctively suspected that this was true at this time, and it was false.
After all, this thing sounds too nonsense!
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that if it weren't for the manifestation of Emperor Taizu Gao, this series of shocking things might not have been something that Emperor Chongzhen could do!
They know too well what kind of virtue Chongzhen is.
Although this matter is more unbelievable, Zuo Liangyu and others have many people who believe it for seven or eight points.
It was at this time that Zhu Di suddenly took two steps forward and suddenly pulled out the saber at his waist.
One sword cut off Zuo Liangyu's head!
What kind of martial arts is Zhu Di?
Zuo Liangyu fights alone and fights fairly, and he will soon be cut off by Zhu Di!
And this time Zuo Liangyu was thrown out by Zhu Di again, and this extremely shocking news after another shocked his heart was shaken.
What are the precautions?
And Zhu Di, before doing these things, had already made all kinds of calculations.
approached Zuo Liangyu without a trace.
At this time, under the sudden attack, where does Zuo Liangyu have any chance of survival?
He cut off his head with a sword!
Zuo Liangyu's blood gushed out violently!
His head fell to the ground.
His face was filled with extreme fear and incomprehension!
He really didn't expect that these Chengzu Emperors would be so unmartial artistic!
All of a sudden, they shot at him and cut off his head!
How so?
He's a general of the imperial court!
Chongzhen's side, but you have to rely on him!
Not long ago, he also gave himself the title of Marquis of Nanning.
What's more, this is Wuchang City now!
He has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses stationed inside and outside Wuchang City!
Now here, there are hundreds of swords and axes under their own arrangement, and dozens of generals!
It's also in your own mansion!
Obviously, he came to ambush this court envoy and demonstrate to the court envoy!
How did it become that he was killed in this situation??
After Zhu Di slashed this Zuo Liangyu with a sword, he didn't stop, and slashed at Zuo Mengeng, who was panicked and wanted to react!
It was also a sword that cut off his head!
Zuo Mengeng's confusion is no less than that of his father.
Just now, he was still studying hard in his heart, and his father taught him a lot of experience in getting along with the court.
As a result, now, he and his father have been killed one after another?
Died so suddenly......
Zhu Di's sudden move to cut people also stunned many people in the field!
Then, there were people on Zuo Liangyu's side who wanted to make a move.
At this time, Zhu Di held a sword in one hand and took out a holy decree in the other.
He shouted, "There is a holy decree! The people under Zuo Liangyu's command received the order!! ”
While he was doing these things, Hao Shaoqi, who was following him, also roared angrily and picked up the stone bench that he had just thrown to the ground.
Look ahead!
Such a big stone bench was smashed down by him, no matter who it was, it was either injured or injured!
It will even be smashed into meat puree!
And the hundred personal soldiers brought by Zhu Di also pulled out their weapons, and their killing intent rushed into the sky.
In this case, these generals under Zuo Liangyu's command, as well as those sword and axe hands.
Although some people also drew their swords, they really didn't dare and no one dared to take the lead.
It was really too sudden for Zhu Di to move, and before that, he had made so many exciting news.
It hit their hearts again and again, and many of them had scruples.
At this time, another decree was taken out!
"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said:
Zuo Liangyu did not listen to the orders of the imperial court, supported the army and respected himself, acted without authorization, burned, killed and looted, and was extremely bold!
Its sins are heinous!
This matter is only about Zuo Liangyu and his son!
The soldiers under his command were all bewitched by Zuo Liangyu's thieves and pardoned him for his innocence.
If anyone follows Zuo Liangyu to rebel against the imperial court, there will be no forgiveness! Zhu Jiu Clan!
Those who obey the orders of the imperial court can get 20 acres of paddy fields!
Two taels of silver per month!
Chin this!! ”
Zhu Di finished reciting this holy decree with majesty, and then unfolded the holy decree.
At the scene, dozens of middle and senior officers under Zuo Liangyu's command, as well as more than 300 sword and axe men.
In the other hand, he held a blood-stained sword.
At his feet is Shi Zuo Liangyu and his Zuo Mengeng's head.
"Why don't you drop your weapon quickly? Could it be that you also want to be this chaotic minister and thief, and spoil my country?!
The father and son of the Zuo family are dead, who else do you want to rely on?! ”
Drinking a sentence is like thunder on the ground! Momentum!
Some people shook so violently that they even fell to the ground!
The weapons in someone's hands were so frightened that they fell to the ground with a clanging sound.
And this sound seems to have caused some chain reaction.
greeted Zhu Di's majestic and murderous gaze.
There was a clanging sound, and many people began to drop their weapons and crouch on the ground.
And among the officers under Zuo Liangyu's command, there were also one or twenty people, who immediately dropped their weapons and squatted on the ground.
But there were still more than a dozen people, who seemed hesitant.
Seeing this, Zhu Di was unceremonious, and with a wave of his sword, dozens of feather arrows shot over in an instant!
Suddenly, eight or nine people fell to the ground!
The rest were rushed up by Zhu Di, Hao Shaoqi and others, and they were slashed and killed in an instant!
……
"Grandpa, what should we do here after we arrive in Liudu next?"
On the way to walk, Chongzhen looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked.
For the next, how to quickly open up the situation here in Liudu, Chongzhen has no good way.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not answer this question when he heard this.
Instead, he turned his head to look at Zhu Cihong on the side and said, "Cihong, tell me, what should we do next when we arrive in the capital?" ”
Zhu Cihong has become accustomed to his grandfather, and when he has nothing to do recently, he will ask himself some questions.
immediately spoke: "Naturally, it is a quick knife to cut through the mess."
Establish the prestige of the court at the first time! ”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "Then in your opinion, how to cut it?" ”
Zhu Cihong secretly clenched his fists, puffed up his chest, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Grandpa, I think I can raise military salaries from the court officials here in the capital." ”
Chongzhen listened to Zhu Cihong's words, and his face changed!
Something you want to say.
I did that in Beiping City before, because the thieves were about to come to me.
At this time, the situation is different, and I am afraid that it is a little inappropriate to do this again.
Before he could speak, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.
"Good! Good! Tzu Hong, you are a good child! Say the way to our temper!! ”
Chongzhen froze......
At this time, Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng, Qian Qianyi and others were coming quickly and were about to meet Zhu Yuanzhang, Chongzhen and others......
