Chapter 106 The Orthodox Li Court
Jing Yuan looked stern, and said slowly: "Those who resist the decree and do not obey it will be punished according to the law, come here!"

As soon as this remark came out, two guards stepped forward immediately.

"Take it down and behead it for public display!"

Dong Shan suddenly trembled with fear, and said, "Lord Captain, can you give me three days, and I promise that there will be no shortage of food, grass, soldiers and horses!"

Jing Yuan sneered and said, "I'll give you three days to gather food and grass, gather soldiers and horses, and rebel when everything is ready. Is that what you mean?"

"Wrong, wrong!"

Dong Shan was shaking like a sieve, and tremblingly said: "I... I have no such intention!"

Jing Yuan ignored it at all, and said sternly: "Now that the big battle is imminent, the emperor has granted this captain the right to act cheaply, and this captain hereby announces that Aixinjueluo Dong Shan intends to rebel. Punish, and imitate others!"

Dong Shan collapsed directly to the ground, he didn't understand, didn't he just neglect the court's will, if he wanted to be beaten or punished, I just had to accept it, why did he rebel?

There is still solid evidence, where is it?
"Wrong, wrong..."

No matter how he yelled, Jing Yuan didn't give him a chance at all, and immediately ordered the arrest of Dong Shan's nine clans.

The city of Jianzhou suddenly flew like a dog, and the Ming army was everywhere, and everyone was in danger.

Over the course of one night, 57 people were arrested, and some of them were even unclear about Dong Shan's relatives. Anyway, they were all arrested.

On the second day, at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Jing Yuan personally supervised the beheading. With Dong Shan at the head, the 58 people lined up neatly. Immediately after an order was issued, heads rolled out.

In fact, what Jing Yuan did was ordered by Zhu Qizhen.

Although it is very incomprehensible, why the emperor wants to have a hard time with the Jianzhou Jurchen, but since the emperor personally ordered, there is no need for a reason, just do it.

Of course he didn't know that more than 100 years later, Dong Shan had a descendant named Nurhachi.

He even didn't know that the little Jianzhou Jurchen could actually take over the Great Ming Dynasty!

When Jianzhou Wei and Jianzhou Youwei heard the news, they were shocked.

Jianzhou Guard Commander Li Manzhu quickly invited the Right Guard Commander Fancha to discuss countermeasures.

Fancha is Dong Shan's uncle. They used to belong to Jianzhou Zuowei. Later, there were some disputes and infighting. The imperial court came forward to mediate and ordered Fancha to separate from Zuowei and establish Jianzhou Youwei.

However, although there are some conflicts between uncles and nephews, they are blood relatives after all.

Hearing that Dong Shan was punished by the Nine Clans, Fancha was not only shocked, but also angry.

Because...he also belongs to Dong Shan's nine clans, so he wants to drag himself to be punished too?

"Damn Nanman, you killed my people for no reason, I must make them pay the price!"

Li Manzhu looked heavy, and said: "The [-] troops of the Ming army are right in front of us, and our Jurchen clan is at the point of life and death. Whether to fight or surrender, make a decision as soon as possible!"

"What else is there to say?"

Fancha said angrily: "The imperial edict issued by the imperial court is unreasonable. Although the three guards of Jianzhou belong to Daming in name, but for so many years, the well water does not violate the river water. I think the Nanman is bullying the weak and fearing the hard, and can't beat the Mongols." , then look for our business!"

"So what?" Li Manzhu shook his head and said, "The combined population of the three guards in Jianzhou is just over 1. Excluding the old and weak, women and children, there are at most 3000 people who can fight. How can they resist the [-] Ming army?"

"If we can't fight, we have to fight. Let's see Dong Shan's fate. If we surrender, will they let us go?"

"Having said that, let's come up with an idea. We can't just touch the stone with an egg like this."

Fancha seemed to realize something, so he asked, "Li Manzhu, if you have any thoughts, just say so, don't play charades in front of me!"

"In my opinion, the Ming court is exhausted, so it's better to go to the Mongols!"

"It's easy to say, [-] troops are blocking the door, even if you defect to the Mongols, you must be able to get out!"

Li Manzhu smiled and said, "Have you ever read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"

Fan Cha was stunned, and said angrily: "It's not that you don't know, the old man can't read!"

"Sorry, I forgot!"

Li Manzhu leaned forward and said, "This book is about the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the emperor was incompetent, eunuchs monopolized power, and the people were in dire straits..."

"Stop!"

Fancha waved his hand to stop him, his eyes seemed to burst into flames.

"Now that our Jurchen clan is facing annihilation, what romance are you still telling me here?"

"Fancha, this is because you are short-sighted!"

Li Manzhu shook his head and said: "It is said in the book that in the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao won by a surprise with 80 troops, defeating Yuan's [-] troops. Also, in the Battle of Chibi, Sun and Liu's coalition forces defeated [-] Cao's troops with [-] troops. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is not difficult to win more with less."

Fancha was very puzzled and asked, "Tell me, how can we fight against 3000 Ming troops with [-] troops?"

With a confident smile on Li Manzhu's face, he slowly uttered two words: "Surrender!"

"Surrender?"

Fancha nodded half-understanding, and said, "Sounds interesting, please tell me more about it."

"It's very simple. The commander-in-chief of the Ming army, Ma Jingyuan, will come to look for us tomorrow. At that time, he will say that the soldiers, horses, food and grass of Jianzhou Wei and Jianzhou Right Guard have been prepared. As for Jianzhou Zuowei, it is Dong. Shan's own resistance has nothing to do with our two guards."

Fancha said: "This is easy to handle. People, horses, food and grass are ready-made. You continue to talk."

"As the saying goes, capture the thief first and capture the king first. Now that the Han and Mongols are about to go to war, Jing Yuan will definitely incorporate our troops into it. He only needs to use the excuse of performing martial arts to trick them into the army and win them in one fell swoop. There are [-] soldiers and horses, but it will not help."

"Even if the current troubles are solved, the Ming army will settle accounts with us sooner or later. What should we do then?"

"Since we have completely turned our backs, we will simply do everything. We captured Jingyuan and went to join Tuotuobuhua to help him defeat the Ming Dynasty. When the Mongols re-enter the Central Plains, our Jurchen clan will be the founder of the country. The future is promising. Limited."

Fan Cha thought for a while and asked, "Do you think that well source is easy to deal with?"

"It's just a warrior, don't worry!"

"The old man has another question. Now that I'm waiting to go for refuge, will the Mongols accept us?"

Fancha's worries are not unreasonable. The Jurchen and Mongols are feuds, and it is still a question of whether they will accept it or not.

Historically speaking, Mongolia and Khitan were originally of the same origin, but they were naturally separated by geographical environment in the later period, and gradually evolved into two different tribes.

Later, when Khitan was founded, Jurchen and Mongolia surrendered to Khitan at the same time, and there was gradually a connection between the two.

Later, Wanyan Aguda unified Jurchen's ministries, established Dajin, destroyed Liao and Ping Song, and replaced Liao's dominance in the north, and the Mongolian tribes naturally became subjects of Jin.

However, whether it is Khitan or Jurchen, there is only endless oppression for Mongolian tribes.

More than 70 years later, Temujin unified the tribes in Mobei, Mongolia, and then launched a war against the Jin Dynasty. After more than [-] years, the Jin Dynasty was destroyed.

Perhaps it was because the Jurchens squeezed the Mongolian tribe too hard at the beginning. When the Mongols conquered the Jin Kingdom, they massacred the Wanyan family and destroyed their ancestral temple, so that the Wanyan family disappeared from sight.

In order to prevent being slaughtered by the Mongols, most of the remaining Jurchens chose to be assimilated by the Han people, some joined the Mongols, and some remained, lingering in the Liaodong area.

During Zhu Yuanzhang's crusade against the Mongolian Yuan, although the three Jurchen tribes in Liaodong had limited troops, they still resolutely sent troops, just to drive the Mongols out of the Central Plains.

Today, the hatred between Jurchen and Mongols has spanned hundreds of years. If they acted at this time, I don't know what people's attitude will be.

Li Manzhu thought for a long time, and said: "Now that things have happened, do we still have a choice?"

Fancha sighed, and said helplessly, "Okay, I will do as you say!"

After discussing with each other, the two went back to prepare, only waiting for Jing Yuan to come to the door.

Sure enough, the messenger came the next day and asked both of them to command the envoys to discuss matters.

Li Manzhu was closer, and arrived at the Ming army's camp first, and then gave the speech he had prepared.

Jing Yuan was very satisfied with this, he kept nodding his head and said: "Jianzhou Guard has performed well, and when the Northern Expedition returns, this Captain will ask the emperor for credit."

"Thank you, Captain!"

While the two were chatting, a guard came to report, and the commander of Jianzhou right guards, Fan Fan, noticed it.

Jing Yuan nodded and said, "Xuan!"

When Fancha entered the camp, he first took a peek at Li Manzhu, and the two secretly exchanged glances.

"The commander of the right guards of Jianzhou, Fancha, has met Captain Jing!"

Unexpectedly, Jing Yuan didn't even look at it, and said directly: "Come on, take it!"

Fancha turned pale with shock, that's not how the script was written!

"My lord, the lower officials have already prepared soldiers, horses, food and grass according to the imperial court's order. What is the crime?"

Jing Yuan said calmly: "You didn't resist the edict, but Dong Shan did."

Fan Cha hurriedly argued, "That's the left guard's business, what has it to do with my right guard?"

"You're right, Jianzhou left guard's fault can't be blamed on the right guard's head, but..."

Jing Yuan paused, and said, "Dong Shan's rebellion and rebellion is a serious crime against the Nine Clans!"

"He killed the Nine Clans and me..."

Fancha froze suddenly, as if realizing something.

Jing Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, you are his uncle, close relative!"

"Injustice!"

Where did Fancha think that he was waiting here?

Don't take you to bully people like this...

Li Manzhu stared at all this dumbfounded, his eyes full of disbelief.

How did these uncles and nephews offend the imperial court and kill them all in such a hurry...

Two guards stepped forward, pulled Fancha up, and walked out without any explanation.

Fancha's face turned green, and he shouted anxiously: "Li Manzhu, say something!"

Li Manzhu came to his senses and said, "Lord Captain, Fancha didn't know about Dong Shan's affairs beforehand, so please forgive me!"

Jing Yuan asked back, "How do you know he didn't know about this?"

Li Manzhu hurriedly explained: "Jianzhou's three guards each govern one side, and the left guard and the right guard do not interfere with each other. If you want to come..."

"Do you dare to use the head as a guarantee, there is no collusion between them?"

"This... this..."

Li Man couldn't help wiping his sweat, and it was not difficult to hear what he said, the court made it clear that they wanted to kill their uncle and nephew.

This muddy water is not easy to wade through, but don't wade yourself into it.

Seeing that Li Manzhu was silent, Fancha became anxious and shouted: "Li Manzhu, you are dying!"

Li Manzhu was very helpless, and was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.

I want to save them, but when they come up with knives, how can I save them?

Two guards dragged Fancha out of the big tent, only to hear Jing Yuan's voice from inside: "From today onwards, the three guards of Jianzhou will be merged into one, and the captain of the capital will appoint you as the commander of the capital on behalf of the imperial court..."

Hearing this, Fancha was furious and shouted: "Li Manzhu, you fucking want to rebel, but you don't care about my life or death, everyone, don't be good today!"

As soon as this remark came out, the inside and outside of the big tent became quiet at the same time.

Fan Cha broke free, broke into the big tent, grabbed Li Manzhu by the collar, and said, "So all of this is your conspiracy!"

"Fancha, what are you talking about?"

Li Manzhu's old face was flushed, and he said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense in front of the captain!"

The two guards came after them, but seeing Jing Yuan waved at them, they silently retreated to the side.

"Am I talking nonsense?"

Fan Cha sneered, and continued: "You saw that Dong Shan and I were an eyesore, didn't you? Find a reason to kill our uncle and nephew, and then you can control the three guards alone. It's a good plan!"

"You misunderstood, I just found out!"

Li Manzhu turned his back to Jingyuan, and kept winking at Fancha.

But Fan Cha ignored it and just sneered.

"What's the matter with capturing the thief first and capturing the king first, but in the end, both the left and right guards fall into your hands. Li Manzhu, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not in vain!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Manzhu looked horrified, and pushed Fancha away, killing intent flashed in his eyes.

Fan Cha said coldly: "Fake surrender first, and then defect to the Mongols, is that what you said?"

"If you talk nonsense again, I'll kill you!"

Li Manzhu couldn't bear it anymore, and touched the dagger with his backhand, only then remembered that he stayed outside the tent when he entered the door, and in desperation, he grabbed Fancha's neck with both hands.

Fancha suddenly felt his head buzzing, and reached out to grab Li Manzhu's neck, but he couldn't pull himself up.

"stop!"

Following Jing Yuan's order, the guards on both sides stepped forward and separated the two.

"Fancha, you just said that you have surrendered, what's going on?"

At this time, Fancha was also willing to go all out, so he revealed the conspiracy plan of the two of them.

Li Manzhu's face was pale and he collapsed powerlessly on the ground.

"Okay, okay!"

Jing Yuan suddenly sneered, and then said: "Since this is the case, there is no need for the three guards of Jianzhou!"

On that day, the army made a surprise move to cleanse the Jianzhou Jurchens.

This battle can be described in two words, tragic.

There are a total of 1 Jurchens in Jianzhou, and fewer than [-] can participate in the war.

In the face of twenty times the number of the Ming army, there is almost no room for resistance.

After several days of encirclement and suppression, the Ming army beheaded more than [-] people. Li Manzhu's son fled to the border of North Korea, where he was chased and beheaded by the Ming army.

Neither the Dongshan family nor the Fancha family remained, and they completely disappeared from this world.

The vitality of the entire Jianzhou Jurchen disappeared, leaving only a few old and weak women and children, who were also deported and forced to move to the northerly Haixi Jurchen, and even the wild Jurchen area.

After finishing all this, Jing Yuan issued an order, and the army marched northwest to face the Tatars!
