Qiming 1158

Chapter 1109 At least this round, he won the bet

In order to show that this matter is a conspiracy of the Ming Kingdom, and to convince everyone that this self-deception action is not self-deception, Zhao Tan made a decision.

He ordered Meng Xiang to be hanged at the gate of the city, and his body was displayed for three days to warn those who spread rumors.

Whoever dares to spread rumors, I will kill anyone, and I will kill him!
At the same time, Zhao Tan also ordered the Lin'an forbidden army to be dispatched, not allowing anyone to spread the news about the Xiangfan war. All news is mainly official. As long as you hear any gossip, you should immediately trace the source, and if you find the source, you will be executed immediately, which is considered a great merit. pieces.

Anyone who dares to spread rumors will be killed immediately, and their property will be seized. If anyone dares to speak out, they will be arrested and brought to justice immediately, and they will never be forgiven lightly.

A large number of palace guards have been added to Lin'an City Gate, and entry and exit must be strictly screened, and no one is allowed to enter and exit at will.

Some people tried to leave Lin'an, but were stopped by the guards, all their family property was taken away, and all five members of the family were killed.

Under the threat of the palace guard's bloody steel knife, Lin'an City, which was about to collapse as it had several times before, did not collapse, but stabilized.

Even the officials were frightened, and no one dared to touch Zhao Tan's bad head at this time.

It can be considered that Zhao Tan has experience. As soon as he heard the rumors spread, he ordered the army to dispatch and stabilize the situation with bloody steel knives. He did not allow what happened before to happen again, especially no one was allowed to leave Lin'an, especially officials and princes and nobles. .

Anyone who dares to leave Lin'an will be severely punished.

Officials were to be killed and treated like civilians.

Faced with such a terrifying threat, whether the bureaucrats believe it or not, the civilians were intimidated and dared not run away. Lin'an City, which was on the verge of collapse because of the news brought back by Meng Xiang, was fast and decisive because of Zhao Tan. The action has miraculously stabilized.

People are still suspicious, still worried, but they dare not leave. The officials know more, but they get together in twos and threes, and they also begin to doubt the authenticity of the news.

And the emperor's actions were too decisive.

For a time, Lin'an City fell into a strange silence.

Yu Yunwen thought that this was Zhao Tan's plan to kill two birds with one stone, in order to force out the secret works of the Ming Dynasty hidden in Lin'an City, and this news was just a play under the leadership of Zhao Tan, and he still praised Zhao Tan in his heart for being brave and resourceful, To be able to come up with such a trick to force out the meticulous work in Lin'an City.

But when he asked and saw Zhao Tan, what he saw was Zhao Tan who was on the verge of collapse.

He did not doubt the authenticity of the news brought back by Meng Xiang. He already believed in the news that Xiangfan had fallen and the Ming army had begun to attack the city. He did this just to prevent Lin'an from collapsing, but he had nothing to do.

"I don't want to believe that Xiangfan has been lost, but Meng Xiang is the prefect of De'an House. He has no reason to lie to me. Xiangfan has been lost. Stock up! How can this happen?"

Yu Yunwen was suddenly shocked.

If this is not Zhao Tan's conspiracy, then it can only show that all this is true, and Xiangfan is really finished.

If Xiangfan is finished, other places will not be better. The entire Jinghu theater will be completely destroyed. Even if there is still a Sichuan army that can be used as a mobile force at this time, it will not be able to save the overall situation.

With such a large number of Ming troops, at this time, unless the Sichuan and Shu army dispatched 10 people to enter the Jianghan area, it is possible to turn things around, but it is impossible, the Sichuan and Shu army simply does not have that many people.

Therefore, the Jinghu Theater is over. The Ming army has achieved their strategic goal and cut the Southern Song Dynasty into two sections with one knife. They cannot care for each other, and they cannot communicate with each other. The Ming Kingdom has completely grasped the strategic initiative. so...

Can Da Song continue to exist?
Yu Yunwen suddenly felt exhausted, and fell unsteadily to the ground, his face pale and his lips trembling slightly.

There is no doubt that Da Song has come to the brink of extinction. As long as the Ming Kingdom lifts his feet a little, Da Song will fall into the abyss of eternal doom.

And Ming will do it?

Yu Yunwen was not sure.

Now Zhao Tan's strong control over Lin'an City is only temporary. Once more and more news comes, people who don't want to stay here and die will definitely rush out to survive, even the garrison army will desert.

They will feel that Da Song is basically finished, and they are unwilling to work for Da Song anymore.

The order will be totally messed up, and the rules will be totally messed up... It's over, it's over, it's over.

This time Yu Yunwen guessed right.

However, a few days later, a large number of bureaucrats, dignitaries, landlords and gentry fled to Lin'an because of the large-scale southward invasion of the Jinghu Theater by the Ming army.

Then they rushed into Lin'an City like a madman to seek protection, and kept saying some horrible news such as the arrival of the Ming army and the destruction of the Song Dynasty, which scared the people of Lin'an quite a bit.

The news they brought was all about the fall of Xiangfan, the loss of Jinghu, and the large-scale southward attack of the Ming army to destroy the Song Dynasty. They did not dare to stay there, so they fled to Lin'an to seek shelter.

One person can lie and two people can collude.

Three people can become tigers.

What's more, there are definitely more than three officials and gentry who fled to Lin'an, more than 3000 people. They fled to Lin'an with their families and large cars to seek asylum.

So the news that the Ming army went south to destroy the Song Dynasty immediately swept through Lin'an City in a terrifying manner just like the little boy swept Hiroshima. line of defense, allowing them to directly break the defense and be critically hit.

The entire Lin'an City was plunged into a vortex of fear.

A large number of residents dragged their families and their families to escape from Lin'an City at all costs, and fled to the southeast. The guards couldn't stop them, and it was useless to draw swords. The surging crowd directly overwhelmed Luka, and a large number of people rushed out of Lin'an City.

Not to mention the residents, many bureaucrats were also extremely frightened and fled Lin'an City on a large scale.

From June 23rd to 25th, in just three days, one-third of the Lin'an bureaucrats escaped from Lin'an City, and one-fifth of the Lin'an Forbidden Army deserted and absconded.

There were also several princes and nobles who did not dare to stay in Lin'an City because they were too frightened. They dragged their families and left Lin'an City with their families on the pretext of going to Wenzhou to visit the Taishang Emperor. Among them, even the old husband of the eldest son of Emperor Zhao Tan, he also fled with him.

The concubines who originally served Zhao Gou in the palace, because of excessive fear, asked the empress dowager Wu who stayed in the palace to leave, and then fled with the palace people without waiting for Wu's permission. Anyway, the palace was in chaos. No one stopped them at all.

They also wanted to flee to Wenzhou, and went to Zhao Gou, saying that they were worried about Zhao Gou's safety and wanted to escort Zhao Gou.

Zhao Tan would just leave it to his concubines to escort him, and there was no need for them, Zhao Gou's concubines.

These are still bureaucrats, with vested interests. Before escaping, they will think about it to some extent, weigh the pros and cons, and they do not want to give up their vested interests unless it is a last resort.

Even they all fled on a large scale, the residents of the city are of course disregarding Run.

The residents of the city have no interests or burdens. They are not together with the senior officials of the Southern Song Dynasty, and they have never felt what it means to be privileged and vested interests. They are just a group of miserable ordinary people, and there is no need to die with the Southern Song Dynasty.

Anyway, when the dust settles, they will be the same people when they come back. No matter who is the boss, they will always be ruled by others.

So now, you have to get out.

People in the highest decision-making circle of the Southern Song Dynasty also behaved differently in the entire chaotic stall in Lin'an.

Ye Yiwen and Shen Kai were pale, and Zhou Linzhi hurriedly walked around.

They were so shocked, their minds went blank that they couldn't make any decisions.

There are subordinates who come to ask them how to do things, and they can't give effective strategies.

So the court was temporarily incapacitated.

Wang Dabao, Hu Quan, Chen Junqing and others ran to see Zhao Tan, hoping that Zhao Tan could order to stabilize the situation, close the city gate, and stop letting people escape. This is the only way at present.

Only Yu Yunwen was wearing an official uniform and holding a steel knife. He led two personal guards to find the chaotic guard station.

"The Ming army has no shadow, so they are so anxious to escape. If the Ming army cannot successfully come to Lin'an and destroy the Great Song Dynasty, then those who have escaped will have to pay a heavy price, and they will all be raided and annihilated, and they will never be forgiven. .

Those who are generals will be dismissed, those who are officers will be deprived of their status as officers, their titles will be deprived, and they will have nothing left, and after they are taken, they will be left with many, many official positions.

And those who stand up bravely at this moment can not only get rich rewards, generals can be knighted, officers can be promoted, soldiers can become officers, and the wealth is right in front of them. Courage to take it with me? "

When the imperial guards were in the middle of nowhere, you looked at me and I looked at you, and each felt that Yu Yunwen was right.

At this time, Yu Yunwen also announced the content of the reward.

"Come with me, close the city gate of the Lin Security Department, and kill everyone who tries to break in, no matter who it is, kill them all, so as to stabilize Lin'an City. Five taels of silver will be rewarded, and the position of the officer will be immediately upgraded by one level, and the soldier will be directly upgraded to an officer, which will be executed immediately!"

After speaking, Yu Yunwen raised his arms and called out.

"If you want wealth, come with me! If you don't want wealth, just stay here and die!"

Yu Yunwen said and ran forward.

After a while, he heard footsteps behind him, and he knew that he had won the bet, at least this round, he had won the bet.
