Ming Dynasty: A mere unruly commoner is rebelling against the heaven?

Chapter 183: All heads were cut off and a Jingguan was built! (Part )

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Gao Shun accepted the order and immediately began to organize the trap camp and prepare for the execution.

Hundreds of soldiers from the Xianzhen Camp, holding bloody knives, came to the Xuanfu rebels who were kneeling on the ground.

The Xuanfu rebels were on the verge of mental collapse as they looked at the sharp knives that were only inches away from their necks.

"Your Majesty! I have told you everything I know! Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice! Please give us a way out!"

"Your Majesty, we were really wrong! We really won't dare to do it again! Please, Your Majesty, spare our lives!"

"..."

The Xuanfu rebels wailed, constantly confessed, and begged Zhu Youtang to spare their lives.

But Zhu Youtang was unmoved at all. All those soldiers who dared to draw their swords against him must die!
Without killing, the imperial authority cannot be established!
Not killing is not enough to warn the world!
If he doesn't kill these people, all the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty will dare to draw their swords against the Ming Emperor, and he will no longer have any use for himself as the emperor.

"cut!"

Following Gao Shun's order, the Xianzhen Camp raised their swords and chopped down hundreds of Xuanfu rebels, killing them.

Suddenly, endless wails and screams were heard in Tumu Fort.

The Xuanfu rebels who were being tortured were screaming, and the Xuanfu rebels who were waiting to be tortured were wailing.

Even the civil and military officials who were watching the execution from afar could not help but gasp.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

Yang Kui screamed, closed his eyes in pain and buried his head in the ground.

He is the general of this army and has feelings for them after all.

Looking at this army, which had spent countless manpower, material resources and financial resources, and had gone through dozens or hundreds of battles of all sizes to gain strong combat effectiveness, being slaughtered like pigs and dogs by Zhu Youtang.

Yang Kui felt so much pain in his heart that he almost went crazy.

He was unwilling to face this fact and just wanted to escape.

But Zhu Youtang would never let Yang Kui go so easily.

Zhu Youtang looked down at Yang Kui lying on the ground with cold eyes and ordered coldly: "Pull his eyes open and let him watch the entire execution process."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Mou Bin made a gesture, and two Jinyiwei immediately held down Yang Kui, fixed his head, pried open his eyelids, and forced him to watch the execution.

At the execution ground in the center of the Tumubao camp, a new group of Xuanfu rebels were being tortured.

As Gao Shun chopped down with his right hand, the soldiers of the Xianzhen Camp drew their swords again and executed hundreds of Xuanfu rebels once again.

Seeing the usually lively face turned into an immobile corpse again, Yang Kui let out a heart-wrenching cry.

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

"No! I don't want to see it!!!"

"Kill me! Kill me! Kill me now!"

"..."

Yang Kui struggled desperately, trying to turn his head and close his eyes, just because he didn't want to see this scene that made him mentally collapse.

But all his struggles and efforts were in vain.

Those cruel scenes hit his eyes directly, and he couldn't help but look at them.

Zhu Youtang snorted coldly, turned around and walked back to the tent.

"Come back and tell me after the execution is over."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhu Youtang returned to his tent and sat down, and also took some time to deal with some memorials sent from the capital.

Although Zhu Youju is now stationed in the capital, Zhu Youtang has never given Zhu Youju the power to handle government affairs.

These important matters of state were delivered to his residence from the capital by special personnel every day.

After being processed by Zhu Youtang, he was sent back to the capital.

Although he was leading troops outside, Zhu Youtang still firmly controlled the government.

Two full hours later, Gao Shun, covered in a foul stench, walked into Zhu Youtang's tent.

"Your Majesty, all the rebels have been executed."

"And the Jingguan has already been built, just outside the Tumubao camp."

Zhu Youtang nodded, put down the memorial in his hand, stood up and walked out of the camp.

Although only two hours had passed, earth-shaking changes had taken place in the Tumubao camp.

The Xuanfu rebels who had previously knelt all over the camp have now become a Jingguan outside the Tumubao camp.

The ground inside the Tumubao camp was covered with blood and splattered flesh; it had become a veritable scarlet hell.

In this scarlet hell, Yang Kui curled up alone, shaking constantly.

He closed his eyes tightly, tears of blood continued to flow out, his lips trembled uncontrollably, and he uttered a few sporadic words tremblingly.

"Don't...don't..."

"kill me……"

"I don't want to see...I don't want to see..."

"I don't dare anymore... I don't dare anymore..."

"Don't kill me... please don't kill me..."

"..."

Fifty thousand soldiers from the Xianzhen Camp and ten thousand factory guards were stationed at the Tumubao Camp, with a solemn military appearance. A group of civil officials and military generals hid far outside the Tumubao Camp, looking into the camp from time to time, but they did not dare to enter the camp.

Where have these civil servants who have been in the capital for a long time ever seen such a scene?
The bloody scene of slaughtering tens of thousands of people and then building a Jingguan almost drove them crazy.

At the same time, this also made them feel even more chilled by Zhu Youtang's ruthless tactics.

Zhu Youtang really has some of the legacy of Taizu.

Zhu Youtang looked around and felt emotional.

Even in this small place called Tumubao, where only 20,000 people died, it was already a scene like hell on earth.

How did Yesen, with his 20,000 cavalrymen, kill all the 500,000-strong army led by Emperor Yingzong?

With an army of 500,000, it would take three days and three nights just to make them kneel on the ground and be killed by them, right?

Zhu Youtang retracted his gaze, looked at Yang Kui lying on the ground shivering, and asked Mou Bin beside him: "What happened to him?"

Mou Bin bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, Yang Kui couldn't stand such a big stimulus and went crazy."

"crazy?"

Zhu Youtang sneered: "Being crazy can also be useful."

"Yang Tong dared to let his son lead troops to attack my camp. Who knows what is going on in Xuanfu now."

"Take Yang Kui with you and tell everyone that the army will march out immediately and continue to Xuanfu!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Gao Shun, Mou Bin and Wang Zhi all took the order and began to mobilize the entire army and set out again.

Gao Shun was responsible for mobilizing the Xianzhen Camp, keeping them in formation and protecting Zhu Youtang and his entourage.

Mou Bin was responsible for commanding the Jinyiwei and urging civil and military officials to set off immediately.

Wang Zhi ordered the Western Factory guards to command the remaining 160,000 logistics personnel, pack up supplies, and set off with the main force.

Zhu Youtang sat in his own dragon sedan, with the Embroidered Uniform Guard scouts outside, the emperor's ceremonial guard in front, and the civil officials, military generals and logistics personnel behind, and the large army set out again towards Xuanfu.

It is worth mentioning that in the queue of civil and military officials, Xu Pu and Liu Daxia, who were supposed to be walking in the front, were now wearing shackles and walking at the end of the team in a miserable state.

If they hadn't had someone to support them, they would have fallen behind long ago.

Each shackle weighs thirty or forty kilograms. Just making them walk long distances wearing the shackles is already a torture.

Xu Pu and Liu Daxia were feeling miserable and had already cursed Yang Tong and Yang Kui, father and son, in their hearts, and also cursed Yu Shen as well.

If they had known that the father and son were so vicious and so bold, they would never have cooperated with such people!

I regret it! I regret it!

One wrong move would result in a complete loss of the whole game. Xu Pu and Liu Daxia were unwilling to accept this!
But now, no one can do anything to save the situation.

Regret, regret!

After the large army left Tumubao, all that was left was a bloody field and a huge Jingguan.

This Jingguan was used to warn all soldiers in the border towns not to have any rebellious intentions.

Otherwise, you will die without a burial place!
……

The large force continued to move north and rested at Leijia Station that night.

That night, the Xianzhen Camp and the factory guards were all on high alert and no one dared to let their guard down.

They had to prevent any troops from approaching the Leijiazhan camp, especially the Ming troops wearing Ming helmets and armor, who were the main targets of defense.

Fortunately, nothing happened that night at Leijia Station.

The next morning, the large army continued its journey towards Xuanfu.

Nearing three quarters past the hour of Si, a scout who had been sent out by the Embroidered Uniform Guard to explore the way suddenly rode his horse hurriedly back to the main force.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty! Enemies spotted ahead!"

The Jinyiwei rushed into the team, came to Zhu Youtang's dragon sedan chair, and knelt down to report.

Zhu Youtang knocked on the window frame twice, and the dragon sedan stopped steadily. Zhu Youtang lifted the curtain and walked out of the sedan.

"explain."

"Your Majesty, we have spotted two thousand soldiers ahead, all wearing Hu clothing, and they are probably from the grassland tribes, heading in your direction."

Zhu Youtang raised his eyebrows. Are there really Hu people inside the pass?
But why are there only two thousand troops?
With only two thousand men and horses, how did they get through Xuanfu and Datong?
Have these two important border towns become completely useless?

Anyone and everyone can enter the pass and run wild on the Ming Dynasty's territory?

Zhu Youtang frowned, rode on the imperial horse beside him, and ordered: "The Jinyiwei continue to be alert and do not alarm them."

"Gao Shun, get the Xianzhen camp ready for battle and start charging and fighting at any time."

"You, lead the way and go see what the situation is with those two thousand grassland soldiers and horses."

As soon as Zhu Youtang finished speaking, Mou Bin, Gao Shun, and the Jinyiwei all bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Mou Bin began to give orders to the Jinyiwei around him to carry out Zhu Youtang's orders.

Gao Shun also commanded the Xianzhen Camp and entered into battle preparation mode.

The Jinyiwei who reported the enemy situation came to the front of the team and led a large force in the direction where the grassland troops were discovered.

Zhu Youtang did not return to the dragon sedan chair, but rode the imperial horse and walked behind the emperor's procession.

After all, after sitting in the sedan chair for a long time, Zhu Youtang occasionally wanted to come out and ride a horse to stretch his muscles.

Mou Bin and Wang Zhi were by his side, and thousands of factory guards were protecting Zhu Youtang to ensure that he would not come to any harm.

In this way, the large army led by Zhu Youtang gradually approached the group of grassland troops who entered the pass.
