Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 643
"shoot!"

Thousands of tiger soldiers, these soldiers would never have imagined in their dreams that when they were about to approach the catapult, suddenly, 1000 people rushed out from both sides of the catapult, holding bows and crossbows, and shot directly at them.

Arrows rained down because these tiger soldiers were wearing the simplest leather armor, so they couldn't defend at all, and there were countless deaths and injuries in a round of arrow rain.

And a round of arrow rain passed, the second round, the third round, and the fourth round. One by one, a thousand Tiger Clan soldiers were just about to rush to the side of the trebuchet, and then they were pushed back again, and they were still alive. Six or seven hundred casualties!
"Can't attack!"

The tiger clan members who fled back told the head of the tiger clan the unfortunate news. At this moment, the head of the tiger clan also lost the desire to defend and attack, and directly announced their surrender. Some people would wonder how it was so easy to surrender.

It's very simple, because this kind of surrender is not the first time. In fact, in the last few rebellions, the tiger clan also participated. , I directly raised my hands and surrendered, because at that time I was afraid of causing unnecessary troubles. At that time, the Tang army would not kill all the Liaoren tribes that had already surrendered. I was afraid that if they went too far, it would cause rebellion again. .

After all, Lingnan is a mountain high and the emperor is far away, and the army of the Tang Dynasty can't stay here all the time, so they can only comfort them.

So every time you surrender, you will be sent back to your original tribe. This behavior also gives those rebellious tribes a taste of the sweetness. You can kill them happily, but as long as you can’t kill them, you just raise your hands and surrender. will be sent back to the original tribe, then please give me a reason not to rebel.

It's just that the Tiger Clan surrendered this time, but it was a major mistake. After the remaining [-] soldiers of the Tiger Clan surrendered, Su Dingfang entered Mocheng, and Mocheng was already devastated.

During the subsequent interrogation, Su Dingfang got a lot of horrible truths.

These Tiger Clan members are really a group of lunatics. After washing and skinning, they often capture some ordinary people from Mocheng, and then play skinning games together. The head of the Tiger Clan has many rules for this game:

These regulations are: [-]. People cannot be stripped to death, they must be tortured to death.[-]. Don't be soft-handed, whoever is soft-handed will peel off his skin.[-]. Carry out skinning competitions. If you peel more, you will be rewarded, and if you peel less, you will die.Because of these regulations, all the people who participated in the skinning were extremely cruel, and they moved quickly and cautiously.

After peeling a lot of skin, some soft-hearted, poor psychological endurance, or mentally disturbed, instinctively put down the butcher knife and dare not peel any more.

At this time, the patriarch of the Tiger Clan was furious, thinking that these people were cowards of the Tiger Clan, and ordered to hang up these people who had put down their butcher knives one by one, and skinned them.

These are obviously members of the Tiger Clan. They were skinned by him like this, and they died of pain.

The patriarch of the tiger clan not only skinned the soft-hearted, but also arrested all his family members, no matter old or young, women or children, they were all skinned, and finally died tragically.

The patriarch of the Tiger Clan stretched the peeled human skin with bamboo poles and planted it all along the street. For a while, some streets in Mocheng were full of stretched and bloody human skin.

Looking at the human skins all over the street, the patriarch of the Tiger Clan actually swaggered forward, shouted and hugged, and laughed endlessly.

Of course, this is not the cruelest thing. The most cruel thing is the killing of Han Chinese babies by the patriarch of the tiger clan. One day, the patriarch of the tiger clan caught a wife from Mocheng. This woman was pregnant and had a big belly. On a whim, the head of the Tiger Clan asked someone to cut her stomach open to see what the baby inside looked like.

As a result, the woman's belly was cut open.The baby is taken out.

Seeing this baby, the patriarch of the tiger tribe was very upset, saying that if the child was not killed, he would be a deadly enemy again 20 years later, so he asked his subordinates to think of the most wonderful way to kill the baby.

After much deliberation, I finally came up with such a trick: stick a machete and spear on the ground, and then throw the child into the air. After the child fell, he was stabbed to death by the tip of the knife.Seeing this scene, the patriarch of the Tiger Clan found it very interesting, so he called to come again.Therefore, his subordinates drove all over the city to look for pregnant women, and when they found pregnant women, they followed suit.It is said that on this day, the head of the tiger clan killed many women and unborn babies.

The same thing is to cut open the stomach, and there is one more thing, what the tiger clan chief did is really ridiculous.One day, a scholar from Mocheng who surrendered told him the principles of governing the country and the world. After hearing this, he thought it was very good. He thought this scholar was very wise and thoughtful. learned so much?"

The scholar was still proud of his praise, but unexpectedly, the patriarch of the tiger clan yelled: "Come on! Open his stomach, I want to see what the knowledge inside looks like!"

In this way, the scholar's stomach was cut open.The patriarch of the tiger tribe looked over and over in his subordinate's stomach, and finally said: "There is only a pile of stinky messy intestines, no knowledge!"

All the atrocities committed by the Tiger Clan in Mocheng can be described beyond description. The leader of the Tiger Clan has an innate pleasure in killing Han people, so he has led his own Tiger Clan. I don’t know how many times he has rebelled. happy.

Finally, after the arrival of the Tang army, if they can't fight, they will raise their hands and surrender, then get a sum of food, and then return to their tribe with a smile, but this time the tiger clan chief will be disappointed.

Su Dingfang reported all the things he knew to Li You. After reading these, Li You replied with six words, Zhujingguan, Zhenliao people. In addition to these six words, Li You also pointed out the The punishment for the head of the Tiger Clan is to divide the body by five horses.

To be honest, Li You is not such a cruel person, but Li You believes in one thing, if people do not offend me, I will not offend others, but if people offend me, I will definitely offend them. You have done these things, and you will be punished accordingly, so Li You The reason for the cruelest method of quartering the body by five horses was that the bastard could not be executed quickly, because Li You's men couldn't.

You must know that Ling Chi's execution is very particular. It must be that the muscles are exhausted, but the breath is not exhausted, the heart and heart are connected, and the audio-visual remains. The knife technique needs to be very particular, and it is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to do it!
It is said that there is a saying about the first three cuts in the execution. The first cut is to take a piece of meat the size of a copper coin from the right breast of the chest, which is called "Xie Tian", and the second cut is to take a piece of meat the size of a copper coin from the left front breast of the chest, which is called "Xie Di". ", the third cut is to take a piece of meat the size of a copper coin near the wound, which is called "Thanks to the ghosts and gods", and it will be executed one by one according to the relevant sayings, until the last one will kill him.

Generally speaking, the more knives are cut, the better the executioner's technique and the more painful the prisoner's death. On the contrary, if the prisoner dies before the prescribed number of knives, the executioner will be laughed at by the audience and may lose his job. .

Li You's people really don't know how to do it, so they can only choose to be quartered by five horses. I remember the day when the leader of the Tiger Clan was quartered by five horses. After the head of the tiger tribe divided the corpses of the five horses, there was a strong wind, and some people were very happy because the ghosts of the pregnant women and babies came.

Li You then beheaded all the tiger soldiers and set up a Jingguan 100 meters from the gate of Mocheng. The people of Mocheng were so grateful that they would spit in front of the Jingguan every day to express their hatred for these beasts.

And this Jingguan has become the most feared place for many Liao people. At this time, Li You finally realized that this Li You is not just trying to please you. If you anger Li You, then Li You will also send you off. When you go back to your hometown, you are as strong as the Tiger Clan, and it is only at the flick of Li You's Huben Army.

Under such circumstances, the Liao people in Lingnan began to settle down, so Li You's counter-insurgency has come to an end. According to the choice of ordinary people, Li You should go back at this time.

But what is surprising is that Li You did not choose to go back at this time. There are two considerations for not going back. The first consideration is that Lingnan still needs to maintain stability at this time. There will also be large uncertainties.

Just like that Feng An, no one knows what kind of things this Feng An will do. Although Feng Zhichen is now the head of Lingnan, Li You doesn't think that Feng An's eldest son will be able to fight against him My old man, so Li You is bound to stay for a while to let Feng Zhichen gain a firm foothold.

The second consideration was about the attack on Goguryeo. Li You knew through some channels that Li Shimin was going to attack Goguryeo soon, and according to history, this attack on Goguryeo would be fruitless.

Li You was not arrogant enough to think that he could control the battle of Goguryeo this time, and this attack on Goguryeo was also a turning point for Li Shimin's transformation, and Li You didn't want to destroy this turning point.

So Li You didn't want to go back. What Li You wanted now was to take his own Tiger Guards, so that he could stay in Lingnan to escape the attack on Goguryeo. Li You had to stay in Lingnan at least until Li Shimin sent troops to Goguryeo. At this time, Li You would choose to go back. If he went back early and was taken directly to Goguryeo by Li Shimin, Li You really didn't know what to do.

These two considerations led Li You to make a decision to continue staying in Lingnan. Of course, Li You didn't just stay in Lingnan so stupidly. Li You wanted to help Lingnan solve the problem.

However, after Li You stayed in Lingnan, this Chang'an University was in some trouble. Chang'an University, which was supposed to be opened during the Chinese New Year, could only be delayed a little bit. After all, if Li You was not here, no one would dare to open Chang'an University.
