"Your Majesty, is it too harsh to make the surrenderers cut their braids and change their clothes? It will not be conducive to the surrender of the Eastern captives, and it will make it more difficult to eliminate the Eastern captives?"
Hearing Turge and other Eight Banners nobles who had surrendered with Abatai outside protest loudly because they were asked to cut their braids, Fu Zonglong, the governor of Liaodong, couldn't help but ask.
Zhu Youxiao said: "Knowing that after Qin conquered Liuhe, why did China not be divided into six kingdoms even though Qin was dead? Even though there were only two generations of Qin, Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms and implemented the same track and the book Tongwen's government, since he wants to submit to the Ming Dynasty, he should abandon his own customs and bring Manchu and Han together for the sake of our Chinese people. Otherwise, there will be another dispute in the future, and those who are not of our race will have different minds. We must make them If we are of the same mind, we should assimilate into one clan, or we can only kill them!"
Although Zhu Youxiao knew that requiring Eight Banners people to cut their braids and change clothes would cause resistance from many Eight Banners people who had surrendered, just like in history, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty required Han people to cut their hair and change clothes after entering the customs, many Han officials who had surrendered resisted , but Zhu Youxiao had to admit that what Dorgon did was indeed a good way to strengthen the rule of the Eight Banners aristocrats of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and prolong the national destiny. After all, only in this way can they completely break their backbone and make them truly submission.
As Zhu Youxiao said this, he asked Abatai: "Abatai, would you like to change your clothes, change your surname, and cut your braids?"
"The son of a traitor is willing!"
Abata thought for a while and replied.
Just like many Han officials in history who only care about personal honor and disgrace took the initiative or supported shaving their hair and changing clothes, Abatai, an Eight Banners noble who only cares about personal honor and disgrace, is no exception. As long as his personal glory and wealth can be guaranteed, he will give it to Zhu You. I'm willing to be a school dog, not to mention, it's easy to get dressed if I cut my pigtails.
Therefore, Abatay felt no pressure when he said yes.
Zhu Youxiao nodded: "Okay, Lu Xiangsheng, I order you to shave off Abatai's pigtails!"
With that said, Zhu Youxiao looked at Abatai: "Then Abatai, take it out yourself and ask the bannermen and Baoyi who surrendered with you to cut their braids. If they don't obey, you kill them on my behalf!"
"twitter!"
Abata replied.
"Get up and return to obey the order. I, Ming Dynasty, no longer have to kneel down."
Zhu Youxiao reminded.
"According to the order."
Abata replied first, then stood up.
At this time, Lu Xiangsheng, who was in charge of the security guard of Zhu You School and therefore had the right to bring a knife in the palace, came over, pulled out the Xiuchun knife, twisted Aba Tai's money rat tail, and slowly shaved off Aba Tai with the blade. The money rat tail on the back of Tai's head.
Abatai, who was already bald, took the money rat tail from Lu Xiangsheng, and then smiled flatteringly, but the smile was a bit ugly, because for him who was used to the money rat tail, he still couldn't accept the loss of the rat tail. The feeling of braids.
"Very good! Abatai, I will first give you the Chinese surname Jian and the name Ren. You can choose your own name after Jianren. The appointment of the official is yet to be determined. You can act according to my will immediately."
Zhu Youxiao said for this reason.
"Jianren thanks His Majesty the Ming Emperor for being spared!"
Abatai walked out holding his money rat tail.
When Turg and other Eight Banners nobles who cared more about their own Eight Banners characteristics saw the bald Abatai coming out holding money and rat tails, they were naturally shocked and angry.
"Taiji! Why did you shave your braid?! This is a legacy from our ancestors!"
"Master, what are you doing? Is it your initiative to cut off your braids and surrender?!"
"Master, you can't do this! We can submit to the imperial court with you, but we have to recognize our ancestors, woohoo!"
These Eight Banners nobles cried and shouted.
Abate just shouted directly: "What nonsense? Your Majesty has an edict. If you want to submit, you should submit sincerely! If anyone doesn't obey, kill him! Anyone who is willing to cut off his braid and change his clothes, come and stand in front of me. If you don't want to, just wait to be executed!"
Many bannermen were afraid of death, so they came to stand in front of Abatai honestly.
Even some of the fierce ones who clamored not to cut their braids still came to stand in front of Abatai.
Many people are afraid of death and greedy for life.
But some are still stubborn and unwilling to be assimilated and abandon their own cultural customs.
Turge, who had been kneeling on the ground before, stood up and said loudly: "I would rather die than obey! If you want me to cut off my braids, I will regret my ancestors, so it is better to chop off my head!"
At this time, Abatai had taken the knife given to him by the emperor, and ordered the two bannermen who were willing to accept the cutting of their braids and whose braids had been shaved by the imperial guards: "Kneel Turg to the ground! You are resisting and disobeying the decree. , then you will die!"
Not long after, Turge was pushed to the ground.
Turge therefore shouted: "Abatai! You are worthy of being a descendant of the Aisin Gioro family! You have no spine! You have failed your ancestors!"
Click!
The sword flashed.
Abatai immediately chopped Gushan Erzhen Turg to the ground.
Click!
Click!
Click!
Zhu Youxiao looked serious as he listened to the sound of Abatai killing his own people outside. He knew that he looked very cruel like this, but he knew very well that this was what he had to do as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Because, in history, Dorgon, who allowed the Manchu Qing Dynasty to successfully rule China, did the same thing.
It's just that now it's not the Han people who force their own people to change their customs, but the banner people.
The remaining bannermen all cut off their braids and put on simple cloth Han clothes and cloth scarves prepared by Zhu Youxiao.
Although these people are afraid of death and are weak-minded, Zhu Youxiao is even more reassured. After all, these people are the ones who will truly become obedient people, and they are also the ones who are easy to assimilate.
Zhu Youxiao planned to move these bannermen who were willing to cut off their braids and change their uniforms to the newly established Taiwan Prefecture established by Zhu Youxiao.
Zhu Youxiao had already decreed the establishment of Taiwan Prefecture, and asked the governor of Fujian to move some refugees to Taiwan for reclamation, and even to register some Taiwanese indigenous people as households.
There is no government administration in Taiwan now. The Spanish and Dutch are on top, and then there are some Taiwanese indigenous people.
Zhu Youxiao now allows Fujian officials to immigrate to Taiwan, naturally to strengthen the management of Taiwan in the future.
By moving these bannermen to Taiwan, Zhu Youxiao planned to have these people drive away the foreign forces entrenched in Taiwan.
Next, Zhu Youxiao awarded Abatai the official position of deputy commander-in-chief of Penghu, in preparation for the future, and asked him to go to the island to clean up the Western troops for him.
However, Zhu Youxiao has not yet asked Abatai to go to Penghu. Instead, he has asked him to temporarily lead his own army, participate in martial arts competitions, and harass and destroy other villages in Jianzhou.
…
"Master! They have been destroying our farmland. They even destroyed our dams and burned our water tankers. We can't just sit back and watch them do this! Otherwise, what will we eat next year?! Please help me, slave! Soldiers, go out and kill those nasty Ming dogs!"
At this time, in front of a large village called Yungang Village on the outskirts of Hetuala City, Niulu'e Zhenxi Tu spoke angrily to Gushan'er Zhenai Xinjieluotang Gu, who was in charge of this village.
Tang Gu refused and said: "No! Father Khan issued an order. Anyone who goes out of the village gate and fights with the Ming army will be killed without mercy! If you dare to go out, I will kill you myself!"
"Master is wise! From my perspective, these Ming troops are deliberately irritating us and waiting for us to leave the stronghold so that they can hunt our heads. As far as the slave knows, many people from Dazhai left the city because their farmland was destroyed. As a result, We were ambushed and annihilated! Now we can only hold on and not get out!"
Zhang Cunren, who was also responsible for guarding this place together with Tang Gugu and Jin Guan, began to flatter Tang Gugu.
But just as he finished speaking, the entire wall suddenly trembled, and everyone including Tang Gugu and Jin Guan who were waiting on the wall were knocked to the ground.
When Tang Gugu and Zhang Cunren came back to their senses, they found that the entire perimeter of the village wall had been blown open, and suddenly many Ming infantrymen rushed over from all directions carrying ladders.
Currently attacking Yungang Village is the Third Town of the Guards and the Guards Battalion, both commanded by Zhou Yuji personally.
Zhang Cunren's crimes against the Guards on the deck had long been preached by the instructor, which aroused great anger within the Guards. They all sent letters to Colonel Zhu You, demanding revenge.
Zhu Youxiao also expressed his intention to avenge this and severely punish Zhang Cunren, a traitor who not only committed treason and collaborated with the enemy, but also massacred the wounded members of the Guards.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao had already known through the Ming Dynasty's intelligence system that Zhang Cunren, Jin Guan and other traitors happened to be in Yungang Village, and therefore ordered Zhou Yuji to personally lead the Third Town and the Guards Battalion to attack Yungang Village , captured Zhang Cunren, Jin Guan and others alive as well as their clansmen and domestic slaves.
It can be said that Zhu Youxiao seemingly had no rules and allowed all the elites of the Ming Dynasty to harass and destroy Nurhachi's territory in the form of martial arts. But in fact, he just wanted to muddy the water in this way, and then sent a member of the Guards to The town acts as a sharp-edged force to attack a stronghold to accomplish a certain goal and at the same time train its attack capabilities.
Because Zhang Cunren was in Yungang Village, Zhu Youxiao chose to let the Guards' Third Town plus a Guards Battalion attack Yungang Village.
Moreover, the Third Town of the Guards directly used the new land warfare heavy long artillery.
This is a cannon with an iron core and copper tires that is stronger than the red cannon. Because it uses a new barrel drilled after the crucible steelmaking method was popularized, the power and range of the cannonballs are better.
Naturally, the wall of Yungang Village was blown open by a burst of artillery bombardment.
As a result, the Third Town of the Guards successfully entered Yungang Village and began to surround Yungang Village. Zhou Yuji personally led the Guards Battalion into the village and was responsible for capturing Zhang Cunren, Jin Guan and others alive.
The Guards Battalion is the elite trained by the new training method of the Guards. It uses the tactics of infantry and artillery coordination and lining up with flintlocks to shoot. It is the elite among the elite of the Guards. Therefore, even in the village, There were also many Eight Banners heavy armored infantry, but they were also defeated by the Guards Battalion, and the Guards Battalion successfully captured Zhang Cunren, Jin Guan and others.
…
"Your Majesty, Yungang Village has been successfully breached. The two traitors Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan, as well as Nurhachi's son Aixinjueluo Tanggugu, were taken into custody. In addition, all the other traitors were killed and purged. ! The total number of heads is 5,628!"
After that, Zhou Yuji also returned to Liaoyang smoothly and reported to Colonel Zhu You.
After Zhu Youxiao heard this, he said: "The order is passed. First, Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan, who have committed two heinous crimes, will be escorted to the battleship 'Hua Rong', and the guards' medical guards will be responsible for 3,600 swords! And their bodies will be cut." They were fed to sharks but not allowed to be buried in China. All their clansmen and domestic slaves were beheaded and fed to sharks. These traitorous people are not worthy of being buried in our Chinese land and are polluting our Chinese land! Throw them into the sea and make them No place to return!
In addition, the decree was passed to destroy all the ancestral cemeteries and ancestral halls of the Zhang and Jin clans and other Liaodong clans who had invested money, and to change them into public toilets. Firstly, to improve cleanliness and prevent diseases, and secondly, to use our Ming and Liao land. The filth of the people for generations will be filthy for generations to come, because the first thing they, the traitors, are sorry for is the people of Liao! And the mansions of these traitors have all been converted into social schools, and monuments have been engraved on all schools in the world to forever remember their crimes, and their white iron kneeling statues have been cast at all schools and city gates in the world, so that people in the world will always know their crimes! "
"What! Ling Chi's three thousand six hundred dollars? We are not allowed to be buried on the land, but our ancestral graves are destroyed and converted into public toilets to be humiliated by all people. They are also required to carve inscriptions on the school and cast iron kneeling statues of me and others. This is to Shall we compare it with Qin Hui?"
Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan were shocked after hearing this.
Neither of them thought that they would end up like this, nor did they think that the emperor would hate them so much that he would use such cruel methods to not even have a chance to put them to death, but would still be scolded by the world. The key is that all members of his nine tribes must be treated like this, and even his ancestors must be punished and humiliated by all peoples for generations.
"Zhu Youxiao! You tyrant, I just killed hundreds of wounded soldiers under your command, Wu Bian, why are you so heartless! You didn't force me to invest big money!"
Zhang Cunren was so stimulated that he started to curse.
And Jin Guan shouted: "Tyrant! Tyrant! He is really a tyrant! Why couldn't I assassinate you at that time!"
As Jin Guan spoke, he looked up to the sky and cursed: "God, how could you be so blind to let such an unruly king be safe and sound!"
Zhu Youxiao ignored the abuses of the two traitors. In order to let the Han people remember the consequences of treason, he had to use the cruelest method to deal with Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan. At the same time, he also let the Guards know that His Majesty the Emperor How much he cared about him, for them he would not hesitate to use the harshest means to deal with the people who killed them.
Before Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan were executed, Zhu Youxiao specially ordered the guards to escort the two traitors to their ancestral halls and ancestral graves. Then, he saw with his own eyes that this area was transformed into toilets. look.
When he saw many soldiers and civilians lining up to enter the ancestral hall of his clan to release water, Zhang Cunren pursed his lips and cried: "It's too much! It's really too much! I've never seen anyone humiliate a clan like this!"
Jin Guan couldn't help but hit his head on the ground and cried loudly: "Ancestors, unworthy descendants, I'm so sorry for you, so that you are now being humiliated by the careless people for generations! Ouch!"
"Your Majesty! The guilty minister has been convicted! Please show your respect! Woohoo!"
"Your Majesty! Please show mercy. Even if someone puts a knife on the guilty minister's neck to make him betray the country, the guilty minister will not dare to do it anymore! Ouch!"
Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan then began to beg.
But pleading was of no use to Zhu Youxiao now, and Zhu Youxiao ignored their pleading.
Therefore, these two people and the nine other tribesmen were taken to the battleship again and were executed by the medical soldiers of the Guards.
Because Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan owed blood debts to the Guards, the medical soldiers of the Guards were not polite to them. They used knives on them while pouring sea water on them.
The two of them screamed very miserably because of this.
…
"So, my ancestral graveyard, Li Yongfang, has also become a toilet?"
Li Yongfang, the former Ming Dynasty guerrilla general who was the first to surrender to the slaves and become a traitor, also asked about the fate of Zhang Cunren and Jin Guan with a chill.
