7. Flesh and Flesh Arrows
On the day, Du Huangshang, who had just crossed Xiaoqi River, was stunned: "Doctor Kong was taken hostage by Cai Piece?"
Then he was extremely regretful. At first, he just hoped to send the judge Kong Chaofu to announce the imperial edict, hoping that Yancheng and Wu Shaocheng could surrender sooner and not to let the entire Caizhou fall into war, but he still underestimated the lower limit of Wu Shaocheng and his bandit gangs.
"The Cai Bids are going to kill people!" From Xiaoqihe to Lingyunzha, within nearly twenty miles of the distance, nearly 30,000 soldiers who had just crossed the river yesterday stood behind the wooden fence of the camp. The Lingyunzha on the hillside outside 200 steps opposite, roared drums and raised flags. At the same time, the northern wall of Yancheng was full of Huaixi soldiers and generals, and seven people were tied up in a row of trees along the edge of the moat.
At the Daqi River in the south of the city, the soldiers of the Dingwu, Yining and Fengyi armies of the court were invisible. They were camping and camping to the boundary at Tuokou, preparing to carry out a siege on Yancheng.
Du Huangshang hurriedly sent several cavalry out of the camp, and three bypassed the east of Yancheng to inform Yang Yuanqing of Dingwu Army. The other three holding flags and headed straight to the moat of Yancheng: at the horse face, Wu Shaocheng sat under the umbrella covered with flowing ears, watching the preparations for the execution.
An hour later, the soldiers of the government and soldiers who were talking about it were identified in the north of Yancheng.
The seven people tied to the tree are Yang Yuanqing's wife Jia, Yang's four children, Huaixi general Ding Huaijin, and the judge Du Huangshang who had just been kidnapped and Kong Chaofu.
In front of the tree, a group of Cai soldiers were digging the soil, as if they were building a long pile of archery.
"Release the doctor Kong quickly! Otherwise, the court would not forgive the Huaixi person!" The official cavalry pointed at Wu Shaocheng and scolded him.
Wu Shaocheng laughed up, and then his tone was full of madness and cruelty, "I won't kill Doctor Kong for the time being, but I must let the court understand that I, Wu Shaocheng, have the determination to kill people." Then Wu Shaocheng's armor sounded clanging, and he stood up and pointed at the Huaixi generals around him at Ding Huaijin tied up in the moat. "You all know this person. I will hand over the defense of Xiaoqihe to him, but he let the official army cross the river. Those who do not want to fight to the death will die."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Huaijin screamed in a short scream. His neck and mouth were pinned by several Wu Shaocheng's teeth soldiers with ropes and cloth towels. Ding's face quickly turned blue and even black, and his blood was all over the place due to difficulty in breathing. He wanted to scold Wu Shaocheng angrily, but he couldn't speak.
A Caizhou soldier with a terrifying face was holding a short-handed sharp blade in front of him and stabbed him into Ding Huaijin's chest.
The instant thrust caused Ding Huaijin's mouth, nose, eyes, sockets and heart to burst out bleeding, and the executioner's head and face were covered with the head and face. Ding's naked feet were in the mud under the tree, and he was extremely painful and rubbed two pits, and then he died.
Tens of thousands of people witnessed this scene at the top of the city, Lingyunzha, northeast of the city, and the official army camp opposite Lingyunzha.
"Wu Shaocheng, a crazy person." Du Huangshang looked at the scene and felt regretful and resentful.
The execution soldier, in full view of the public, threw the knife straight from Ding's chest to his abdomen, took out his heart and intestines, and threw it on the stack of arrows next to him.
At this moment, Yang Yuanqing's four children, the oldest, was only eleven years old, and all cried in shock.
"Don't cry, die if you die. The Wu thief will be buried with us immediately." Yang Yuanqing's wife Jia's mouth was not blocked, and she still shouted and cursed.
"Shut up, you prostitute!" Li Yuanping jumped on the top of the city.
Jia turned his head and cursed at Li Yuanping: "You small and needless ugly dwarf, you call yourself a royal family in vain. You are doing all the behaviors that are worse than pigs and dogs. Now the imperial army has arrived, so you will die without a place to bury you." Then Jia shouted to the generals of Huaixi Army at the top of the city, "Brothers, you are all from Caizhou. Look at what the brothers Wu Shaocheng have done? Kill the prime minister, kill the official army, kill the people, do many evil deeds, and you cannot be punished. If you follow him, I am afraid that the city of Runan will eventually turn into powder and your whole family will not be able to survive."
"I dare to be stubborn until I die, and kill this prostitute!" Li Yuanping and Wu Shaocheng were furious.
Jia laughed and scolded, "Is the thief afraid of a woman today? My loyal soul will never die after death, and you will be as humble as mud after death."
"If you sell me Huaixi, kill me!" Wu Shaocheng jumped wildly.
At this time, Yang Yuanqing had already rode a horse to the city of Yan. Seeing that his wife and four children were going to be executed, he was both heartbroken and jumped off the horse and cried wildly in the direction of Jia.
When Jia saw her husband, he used all his strength to shout to him:
"Yuanqing, do my best to assist Gao Tang and Du Tang, and to eliminate the bandits, I should rest in peace."
"Everyone is from Caizhou. Do you not recognize the principle of favorability and rebellion? Why do you want to kill my wife and children?" When Yang Yuanqing saw that the Huaixi soldiers on the opposite side to tear open the clothes of his wife and children and slashed and stabbed the blade cruelly at his body, he was burned inside and shouted, and his fingernails were bleeding and peeling off.
However, his begging was useless. Jia and his four children were cut by a knife, and their fragments and internal organs were constantly thrown on the arrow pile... This was Huaixi's torture, called "Zhuzhipao".
"The thief, the thief, you are all thieves, and you will not die well!" At this time, Yang Yuanqing remembered in a trance that he had told Gao Yue that he should treat the soldiers and soldiers in Caizhou well when pacifying Huaixi, but now it is the group of people he wants to save, ruthlessly shattering his wife and children, or watching indifferently.
They all die, they do not deserve forgiveness!
A voice sounded in Yang Yuanqing's heart.
Finally, Kong Chaofu...
Wu Shaocheng, who was red-eyed, stood at the top of the city, drew out his sword, pointed at the densely packed official camps, and shouted: "Who still thinks I am joking now? If you return to the north of Xiaoqi River, I should release Dr. Kong, otherwise..."
But at this time, Kong Chao's father looked at the official army camp and knew that he was not immune. He was full of anger at Cai Thief and shouted: "Those who kill me are the ones who insult the Holy Lord, the rebel thief Wu Shaocheng, the sons should break through Runan City and avenge me."
After saying that, Kong Chaofu used all his strength to chew off his tongue, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and committed suicide.
"Doctor..." The officials and soldiers opposite each other saw that Kong Chaofu was dead, and all the thousands of people knelt down and cried angrily.
At the top of the city wall, Wu Shaocheng and Li Yuanping were at a loss.
Du Huangshang regretted it too much and could only sigh to the sky and try not to let the tears flow.
The next day, the official army, who shared the same hatred of the enemy, began to dig trenches from the north, south and east of the city, cut wood, erected cannon stands, piled up cannon towers, and launched a large-scale attack on the city.
