Chapter 212 Ling Chi
Zunyi Mansion, Wang Xiang’s lust.
Wang Mingchen, who had a righteous look on his face, tied up his master and escorted him over, showing his loyalty.
Hou Xuan didn't even have time to sit down, and held a horse whip in his hand and said with a grin: "Why did I hear that you robbed this batch of food."
When Wang Mingchen heard this, his face changed drastically. Wang Xiang knelt on the ground and cursed, and the two of them almost started fighting in the hall.
When the other generals saw the ugly appearance of the two main generals, they all lowered their heads in shame.
Hou Xuanyan looked at the group of thieves, and had no intention of watching them perform. He gave Hu Bawan a wink. The latter stepped forward and carried them one by one in the air.
"All the generals under Wang Xiang's tent will be beheaded and displayed to the public without leaving any left. The chief evilman Wang Xiang, the king's orders minister, was executed by the downtown Zunyi Prefecture, and immediately executed." Using heavy punishments in troubled times is not enough to calm the anger of the public, and not killing is not enough to intimidate other warlords.
After a while, Zhang Yitong ran in excitedly and shouted loudly: "Master General, I found a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry in the backyard."
Hou Xuanyan curled his mouth and shook his head and said, "That's not gold, silver and jewelry, it's people's wealth, blood, flesh, wife and children, family breaking up, family breaking up."
Over the past few days, a huge anger was accumulated and finally released in western Guizhou. Zunyi Mansion was killed by people.
Wang Xiang and all the geniuses and guerrillas escorted the generals one by one and brought them to Caishikou in batches. With the tyrant flag, the bright steel knife was chopped off, and blood was flowing like a stream.
Only then did the people of Guizhou dare to go out and see the soldiers and thieves who were majestic and raped and plundered and raped, Zunyi was like the New Year.
Finally, when Wang Xiang and Wang Zhichen were taken up, the onlookers were completely excited. The two people were really stained with blood, and the shouts gradually stopped. The executioner walked onto the punishment stage, and the people stared at them nervously, fearing that there would be an emergency.
Both chopstick hands looked at each other and were a little nervous. Lingchi, also known as cutting into pieces, is the focus of causing the inmate to suffer all pain and not dying happily. A total of 3,357 knives are needed, and the last knife, that is, the 3,357 knives are required. Two people must be stabbed to death before Lingchi can succeed.
This is a technical job. The two masters breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the knife, and started cutting intently. Although the two of them kept wailing, the two executioners were completely immersed in it without any influence.
Soon, the people followed silently and counted, and subtle voices gathered, each knife was accompanied by a low roar.
The smell of blood spread throughout Zunyi Prefecture. It is said that one month later, you can still smell blood in Caishikou.
After Wang Xiang came to Zunyi, each household issued a card without death. However, if you want this card, you must pay a three-liang silver silver. Three-liang silver is all the savings of many wealthy families, and ordinary people cannot take it out at all. If the people have cows at home, each cow must buy a cow ticket.
Three days later, Wang Xiang's soldiers checked the death-free cards and the cow tickets from house to house. As long as there were no death-free cards, the whole family would kill them and burn the house. Those who did not have the cattle tickets would all take them away and slaughter them and eat meat. In this way, they killed each family, and the remaining population of Zunyi Prefecture was less than one-tenth.
The family had savings and bought the death-free card, but they were not completely safe. All the tyrants and miscellaneous taxes fell on the survivors. Wang Xiang had no ambitions and did not think about occupying Zunyi for a long time. He exhausted the pond and squeezed out the remaining common people, making the tragic situation on this land no less than the massacre of the Qing Dynasty.
Amid the cheers of the sky, Hou Xuanyan led his troops away, leaving two thousand people before leaving. The leader was a general of the Hunan Army. Hou Xuanyan promoted him to the general of Zunyi Prefecture on the spot. They could restore the people's livelihood in Zunyi Prefecture. The farmers gave oxen grain and were willing to join the army. All the money plundered by Wang Xiang was used to restore the people's livelihood of Zunyi Prefecture. This ravaged place would be restored as soon as possible.
Pi Xiong agreed to the three departments of Guizhou. Hou Xuanyan learned through Qianxiang Camp that Zhang Yao and the other three were still good officials. However, the warlords had no soldiers in their hands and had no capital to do things. This was the case in the late Ming Dynasty, especially in Sichuan, Guizhou, Yungui, and the names of various high-ranking officials were useless. Only with soldiers in their hands was the most important. In history, Emperor Yongli Zhu Youlang named Ai Nengqi as Duke Xinguo, and Ai Nengqi threw away the imperial edict and mocked him: My husband is the king, why should he be granted it?
The royal family was already deserted and the enemy was in chaos and the heroes were already in power. Hou Xuanyan, who was originally planning to enter Sichuan to kill Wu Sangui, suddenly discovered that rectifying the local area and eliminating the warlords was the top priority. Otherwise, even if Wu Sangui was driven out, Sichuan would be the same, and even attacking each other, which would be even more serious.
Sichuan and Sichuan are no better than other places. Hou Xuanyan discovered that this place needs absolute authority. Otherwise, one group of warlords would soon emerge, like mushrooms after a rain.
For the officials in Guizhou, Hou Xuanyan has transformed himself into their backer. With Wang Xiang in front, Pi Xiong, the general of Guiyang, is no longer worried that other warlords will dare to look at each other. He bowed and said, "Don't worry, Duke Guo, we will be the one who is waiting for the Duke Guo."
Hou Xuanyan instructed some food transportation matters, and the journey had been delayed for a long time. It is estimated that Wu Sangui from Ba County had taken action.
Sure enough, a pegasus was originally a horse, and the knight turned over and dismounted, lowered his head and fisted and said, "The General of the State Councilor, news came from Ba County that Wu Sangui and Aobai retreated to northern Sichuan. Now they may have arrived at Baoning Prefecture. General Xia is urging his troops to recapture the counties in Chongqing."
Riding on the horse and sighed, Hou Xuanyan also knew that it was meaningless to go to Ba County again.
It is foreseeable that Wu Sangui retreated. In history, Haoge's invasion into Sichuan was much easier than now, so he chose to withdraw. Before leaving, Haoge just appointed a surrendered general to take charge of Baoning Mansion. Although the troops were small, due to internal unity and unified affairs, he always held northern Sichuan firmly in Sichuan, which is full of strong soldiers. Now Wu Sangui and Oboi are personally taking charge of Baoning Mansion. As long as the civil strife in Sichuan is in turmoil, it will be extremely difficult to fight them.
Peng Zhuze, who made great contributions in Lengshuiguan, has been promoted to a fifth-rank general of martial arts. Although their chieftains are of high rank, they are equivalent to honorary positions. To put it bluntly, they can only be prestigious on their own territory. Therefore, if they can be enthroned, they can obviously stay with Hou Xuanyan's side. The entire Peng family of Baojing Prefecture attaches great importance to this.
Peng Zhuze followed Hou Xuanyan on a horse. He was originally a concubine's son in his family and had no chance to attack the chieftain. At most, he was a local official under his younger brother. This time he was able to win an official position, which was a smooth road for him. He asked with a silly smile: "Supervisor, where are we going to fight next?"
