"Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, the freshly released Daming Daily!"
"Today, the Ming Dynasty Daily published the news of slave creation!"
"Shocking news, Jian Nu massacred Shenyang City!"
…
As soon as the word "massacre of the city" came out, the people who were originally indifferent were stunned.
They often pay attention to the Ming Dynasty Daily, especially in the days after the Beijing army left Beijing. The battle conditions will be published in the Ming Dynasty Daily.
However, since the news of the slave-building outside Liaoyang City using children to resist the enemy a month ago, the Ming Dynasty Daily has not published any news about the northern army.
The people were all speculating whether the Northern Army's war was unfavorable.
Now it seems that if it is not published, it will be fine. Once it is published, it will be earth-shattering.
All the people rushed to the newsboys frantically, and in just a quarter of an hour, the 100,000 copies of the Ming Dynasty Daily prepared by Beijing were sold out.
This is equivalent to one out of every five people who live in Beijing buying a newspaper. What an exaggeration.
"The army besieged Shenyang City. The defender Yang Guli could not withstand the Ming army's attack and began to massacre the city?"
"Hiss... we really massacred the city. How dare these beasts Jian Nu do it!"
"Damn it, more than 30,000 people were massacred!"
"Humph, why don't you dare? It's not the first time they have done this. In June of the 48th year of Wanli, Nurhachi broke through Kaiyuan City and plundered more than 100,000 men and women from two areas in Kaiyuan City.
After the army withdrew, less than a thousand people survived or escaped in the city, and all public and private houses were set on fire. "
"In the second year of Tianqi, Nurhachi massacred Shenyang City. In the third year of Tianqi, he captured Guangning. When he retreated, he slaughtered all of Liaoxi and created a large no-man's land. His behavior is no different from that of animals!"
"What are our troops doing? Why are we watching the massacre of the city?"
"Are you sick? Shenyang City is thirteen to fourteen meters high, seven to eight meters thick, and there is a moat of tens of meters outside. Even if a large army can attack the city, can it be so fast?"
"Yes, let you attack the city from now on. As long as you open your mouth, the moat will be filled, the city wall will collapse, and all the slaves will be exterminated!"
"Hmph, if you ask me, we shouldn't save these people. It has been six years since Jiannu established its capital in Shenyang, and Shenyang City has been under Jiannu's rule for more than ten years. The people in the city have basically recognized Jiannu, and that is Jiannu. , it’s better to kill,
Maybe some of the people alive still want revenge! "
"Who says it's not the case? The people in the city actually helped build slaves and defend the city for money. Isn't this about building slaves? What is it?
Everyone loves silver, but they have to be clear about which ones should be taken and which ones should not be taken. They helped defend the city, and the ones they killed were our Ming Dynasty soldiers! "
"That is, we still have nearly 6,000 soldiers who died in battle. In the first two wars, our army only lost a few thousand people. This loss is too great. It is simply confusing..."
"You can't say that. Although... it may be... that the Jian slaves were recognized under the rule of the Jian slaves, but can you guarantee that all of them are like this? Even if only 30% of them are towards the Ming Dynasty, they are still saved!"
"That's right. His Majesty said that no one should be missing. If we don't save him now, wouldn't that be a slap in His Majesty's face?"
"Hmph, is face more important or the lives of soldiers?"
…
News of the Jiannu massacre spread hundreds of miles around Beijing through the Ming Dynasty Daily, and it was still spreading rapidly.
Everyone who saw the news basically cursed.
Thousands of soldiers died in vain by scolding the decision-makers;
Second, he scolded the people in the city for forgetting their wealth and betraying the Ming Dynasty;
Thirdly, he scolded the slaves as cruel and unkind, no different from animals;
All the prefectures and cities were full of complaints, and many people went to the government offices to ask for orders.
…
Two days later, on the sixth day of August, Daming Daily went on sale.
The newsboy just said something about the court's treatment of the slaves and the people in the city, and then the newspaper was swept away.
"Hiss, the emperor is so cruel... Huang Taiji was castrated?"
"Hahaha, this may be the first castrated emperor in human history... Well, no, prince!"
"After the prisoner was presented to the Imperial Ancestral Temple, Ling Chi executed him, and then divided his body into more than 140 parts and suppressed them in the pits of various mansions in the Ming Dynasty? Did everyone in the clan have to whip the corpse?"
"Hahaha... so happy, so happy!"
"It's a pity that all his concubines committed suicide, otherwise I would really want to taste them!"
"Thirty floggings and thirty floggings can kill so many people? Are the sergeants who executed these executions extremely cruel? Are they avenging private revenge?"
"Yes, it really should be. If it were me, I would directly order them all to be chopped off!"
"Don't worry, the flogging is just the beginning. There are still three years of hard labor. Various accidents are prone to occur in these three years, you know!"
"For this kind of person, if there is a first time, there will be a second or third time. There is no bottom line and no sense of shame.
To put it bluntly, if possible, if the enemy throws money at them, these people will be the first to surrender! "
"The two sons who were stabbed in the arm will be considered finished from now on. Unless they no longer live in Shenyang City, no one in Shenyang City is willing or dare to deal with them. The descendants of future generations will not be able to hold their heads high."
"Your Majesty built a large tomb for the soldiers who died in Shenyang City as a memorial. If the incense in this tomb is cut off, it will be a shame for the entire Shenyang City."
"There are tens of thousands of people paying tribute, and it seems that you can have a good job in the underworld. So, is it worth dying?"
"Eh... isn't it? It says that Huang Taiji was castrated. Does that mean that Huang Taiji was captured? Does that mean that the slave-building coalition was destroyed?"
"Yes, this, this is not something you say deliberately to anger the common people!"
"The face didn't hurt from the past few times, did it? The emperor and the six ministers of the cabinet are so stupid? Would they tell such a lie that can be easily exposed?"
"That's right. So, does that mean we have really captured him? I just don't know if only Huang Taiji has been captured or if the entire Jiannu army has been destroyed!"
…
The news on one page relieved a lot of the anger caused by the massacre of the city by slaves in the past two days, and the topic was changed.
Speculations are intensifying, and all parties are watching.
If the slave-building coalition was destroyed, many problems would be highlighted.
Amid the speculation, two days later, on the eighth day of August, Daming Daily once again detonated the news in Fuzhou and counties more than a thousand miles away from Beijing.
"Hiss...the slave-building coalition is really destroyed?"
"Damn it, this defeat is too scary. The entire 430,000-Jinu slave coalition army was wiped out. We, the Ming soldiers, only lost less than 30,000 people in the battle?"
"This is impossible, absolutely impossible...how on earth could this be done?"
"Fuso's Hoshina Masayuki, Yagyu Muneki and other high-ranking generals were captured. The leaders of the Mongolian tribes temporarily rebelled and unexpectedly captured Huang Taiji and other high-ranking slaves alive?
The leaders of the Mongolian tribes used this to negotiate with the court, let their tribes go, and then committed suicide? "
