Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 361 Execution and Siege

A person's courage has nothing to do with his or her ability or official position. A commoner can still be steadfast in the face of torture and death. However, many powerful figures in history defected to the enemy in order to survive for a while at the critical moment of life-threatening. , fell into infamy, such as Li Xiucheng, the backbone of the late Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the loyal king Li Xiucheng.

In the final analysis, these people are greedy for life and afraid of death, and Tong Yangjia, who claims to be an invincible all-rounder in civil and military affairs, is also such a person.

Tong Yangjia's second child was abolished by Zhu Yousong. From now on, he may never be a man again, but this is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is that Zhu Yousong wants to tear him open. In his opinion, this It's much more serious than abolishing the second child. If you can't be a man, at least you can live. If you cut your guts open, you will be completely finished in this life. It's better to live than to die. Therefore, Tong Yangjia faltered when faced with the steel knife, and asked Zhu Yousong again. It is to swear to show determination and to shed tears and repent and pretend to be pitiful, hoping to save his life.

At this time, Tong Yangjia had no heroic spirit at all. He was also arrested and sentenced to death. Before being sawed, Chen Zizhuang, one of the three loyalists in Lingnan, talked and laughed happily. In comparison, it's like heaven and earth.

Of course Zhu Yousong scoffed at Tong Yangjia.

Seeing that there was no hope of survival, Tong Yangjia felt that he was doomed to die today, and that he would definitely be cut open and his heart cut open. When he became angry from embarrassment, Tong Yangjia scolded, "Foolish Lord, Tong will not let you go even if he turns into a ghost! Tyrant, you are not good!" die……"

But he didn't curse a few words, and then stopped, because a Ming army warrior in front of him had already stabbed Tong Yangjia's chest with a sharp steel knife.

Tong Yangjia screamed and almost fainted from the pain. After the Ming army warrior went in with a white knife, he pressed down on the handle of the knife and picked it up again. Tong Yangjia was cut a foot long from the chest to the abdomen. , The blade turned around again, and all the bits and pieces in Tong Yangjia's chest and abdomen, including the heart, liver, lungs, and intestines, all flowed out.

At the same time, the other nine warriors of the Ming army stabbed all nine sharp steel knives into the chests of the nine Tartars. Amidst the screams of killing pigs, the nine Tartars were also ripped open, and the blood Splashing, heart, liver, intestines and lungs flowed all over the platform, blood flowed into a river, staining the execution platform red.

At this time, some Tartars were not dead yet, but their five sense organs were all removed, and they died soon.

When the common people saw it, it was really a living person's heart and lungs. His Majesty must do what he said, and the Tartars finally got this end. The bold ones enjoyed watching it, and the timid ones were too frightened to close their eyes and dare not look at it again, but thinking about it The Tartars, who have done many evil things, are very happy.

Immediately afterwards came the second batch of ten Tartars. The ten Ming army warriors followed the first ten in one move. In the eyes of everyone, the second batch of ten Tartars were also ripped open, their hearts and lungs were ripped out.

Dare to say that these Tartars are also human beings, not all of them are fierce and fearless of death, there are also counselors like Tong Yangjia, the Tartars who didn't turn in the back, there are also "monk" and Mongolian Tartars, seeing their accomplices die so horribly , It was their turn soon, and there were a lot of scares, some shouted for mercy, some pulled up their pants, and they couldn't control their mouths when they wanted to shout for mercy, their eyes were glazed over, and they were trembling all over, as if they were insane.

But no one paid any attention to them at this time, and no matter what their situation was, the warriors of the Ming army brandished the steel knives in their hands and stabbed them out one after another. The execution continued until more than 100 Tartars were all cut open.

The bold people below the stage felt relieved, and some even shouted "Long live!" The timid people did not dare to look or shout, but they felt angry in their hearts.

After the execution, the Ming army cleaned up the execution ground, and the common people dispersed one after another, discussing and enjoying themselves, feeling grateful for the emperor's kindness, thinking that it is better for the Ming Dynasty, at least they can vent their anger and avenge the common people.

At this time, there was a loud shout of killing outside the city, and Zhu Yousong thought that there were tens of thousands of Tartars outside the city who were still attacking the city, so he had an idea, and said: "Come, cut off the heads of all these Tartars! "

The more than 100 brains of more than 100 Tartars were all collected and piled up like a hill, but Zhu Yousong felt that there were still a few, so he sent an order to chop off all the heads of the more than 4000 dead Tartars. Four or five thousand heads piled together really became a mountain of heads.

I didn't know what Zhu Yousong was going to do, and I didn't dare to ask more.

Zhu Yousong asked his soldiers to bring as many heads as they could, and not to take one down, and to bring these heads to the city...

Outside the city of Luoyang, the first siege of the Qing army failed. Man Dahai took a short rest and organized a second siege. This time they pushed the ramming cart across the moat and let a group of archers rush ahead. Some raised shields and some shot arrows at the top of the city to cover the siege.

More than 100 people pushed a huge ramming vehicle and slammed into the city gate. Every impact made a heavy muffled sound, and the ground under their feet moved violently. However, the city gate stood still, and the ramming vehicle was finally destroyed. The city gate was only deformed and was not knocked open. The iron gate was exposed inside, and the Qing army was disappointed.

At the same time, the Qing army that attacked the city was defeated again, and this time the siege failed again.

Hearing the cries of killing in the city, Man Dahai organized the second onslaught later. These two times, he and Kong Youde, the respectful king, personally supervised the battle, and killed more than a hundred soldiers who failed to attack the city, but the result was still the same. Failed.

Four consecutive sieges failed, and Man Dahai was discouraged. Looking at the top and bottom of the city wall, there were all dead bodies around the moat. Of course, most of them were his troops. After checking the number of people, more than half of the 3000 troops were killed or killed, and only those with combat effectiveness remained. There were more than [-] people, looking at the sky, it was almost evening, Man Dahai was so anxious that he began to scold his mother again.

Of course he was scolding people like Tong Yangjia, Zhuo Luo, and A Shan. Now the shouts of killing can no longer be heard in the city. Where are the more than 5000 people dead? It was agreed that the inside and outside should join forces to destroy Luoyang, but the outside of the city was attacked for a long time. Seeing an insider in the city, what the hell is he doing!

Kong Youde calmed down and analyzed, and said with a gloomy face: "Master Belle, there may be changes in the city, Master Tong and the others may be more ominous, they must know about our big movement, they should respond to us long ago."

Man Dahai nodded, and said angrily: "Then what do you say? Should the troops retreat?"

Man Dahai also knew that if there was no internal support, 3 people would immediately want to capture a strong city like Luoyang, which is something only fools would do.

Kong Youde shook his head, "In Xiao Wang's opinion, we can't let the previous work go to waste. Although we failed four times, according to Xiao Wang's observation, there are no defenses on the city, such as bows, arrows, stones, and rolling logs. .Although Mr. Tong and the others are more dangerous than good, their role should not be underestimated. After all, they are more than 5000 strong, and their role in involving the false emperor's troops should not be underestimated. Therefore, Xiao Wang suggested to attack again, and the fifth time will definitely succeed. , we have no way out."

"Your Majesty is right. Come on, follow Ben Baylor with all your strength!" Man Dahai and Kong Youde took the lead and rushed across the moat. More than 1 Qing troops screamed and rushed towards Luoyang City .

Sure enough, as Kong Youde expected, no arrows were shot down from the top of the city, no rolling logs, stone bricks and bricks poured down, and there was no reaction from the top of the city. It seems that the Ming army really ran out of things to defend the city. up.

However, when Man Dahai and Kong De Matou had just arrived at the base of the city, Zhu Yousong appeared on the top of the city and burst out laughing...
