At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

Chapter 245 The wheels must be placed sideways

As night fell in Jingzhou City, the riots in the city gradually subsided.

"Look, little tiger, this is the head of the traitor Zheng Siwei!"

Liu Tichun hugged his head and laughed.

"Uncle Liu, where is the body of the dog thief?" Li Laiheng asked.

"It goes without saying that it was chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs." Liu Tichun said bitterly.

In the Battle of Jingzhou thirteen years ago, Zheng Siwei defended Jingzhou, resulting in the death of a large number of Dashun Army soldiers. How could such a great enemy be taken advantage of?

"Okay! Well done, Old Liu!" Yuan Zongdi laughed and said: "Not only the body of this thief, but also his family members in Jingzhou City, we must not let go!"

"Yes!" Guo Sheng said bitterly: "His subordinates are above the garrison, no! We can't keep any of his subordinates above the rank of Chief Qian!"

"If Lord Long Live hadn't been so merciful and left behind thieves like Jiang Xiang and Tang Tong, how could Lord Long Live die? Why would I, Dashun, have been suffering in Kuidong for more than ten years!"

After the Qing army entered the pass, a series of betrayals by former Ming generals led to the deaths of tens of thousands of Shun soldiers.

In Datong alone, Zhang Tianlin's 10,000 soldiers were killed by Jiang Quan.

If this were not the case, how could Li Zicheng's 200,000-strong Shunjun headquarters be so badly beaten by a mere 100,000 Eight Banners?

In Shanxi and northern Shaanxi alone, as many as 30,000 Shun soldiers were lost due to rebellion.

If this group of troops could be preserved, then Li Guo and Gao Yigong would garrison northern Shaanxi with 70,000 men, which would not give Azig the ability to divide his troops and move south.

But now that Dashun has turned over, for Liu Tichun and Yuan Zongdi, the time for revenge has come.

Zheng Siwei was just the first one. Those who had betrayed Dashun would not let any of them go if they had the chance.

"Okay! That's it!" Li Laiheng shouted: "First kill all Zheng Siwei's family, then let's go to Henan, and finally go to Beijing to kill all the Tatars and traitors!"

As soon as these words came out, all the thieves burst into laughter.

Most of the people who broke into the camp were people of good temperament. If not for this, they would not have gone up to Shangluo Mountain and then entered Kuidong.

This kind of gratification is most in line with the appetite of these big bosses.

No matter what the hell, let’s take revenge first!

If you don't take revenge, you won't feel at ease even if you become the emperor!

"Little tiger, we have captured Jingzhou, and Xiangyang is also in our hands."

Liu Tichun said slowly: "You can take a group of old brothers north, and I will sit in Jingzhou to prepare food and grass."

Liu Tichun has been operating in Badong for more than ten years and has won the hearts of the people.

Historically, after his death in battle, the people of Badong shed tears for him. This treatment was much higher than that of Lord Sun.

Of course, after the war in Yunnan, many people and gentry finally remembered the goodness of Lord Sun, and now they are regretting it.

This common man had never read and had relatively low knowledge, so Lord Sun naturally didn't care.

But the gentry in Yunnan used to think that Sun Guozhu's 10% was too low, and they all took up Li Dingguo's land rent.

Now that we have been harmed by the Qing Dynasty, we finally know that the leader of the Sun Kingdom has recovered, but it is difficult to recover from the flood. How can the current leader of the Sun Kingdom care about their life and death!

Liu Tichun, on the other hand, has business skills. He can manage a paradise in Badong and feed many troops. His ability is certain.

It's just that historically Kuidong was too small and too poor, which limited his performance.

But now that the Shun Army has captured Jingzhou and Xiangyang, it is just around the corner that the entire Jianghan is in their hands. This is the time for Liu Tichun to display his talents.

"Okay." Li Laiheng nodded and said, "Jingzhou has been captured, and De'an and Chengtian are also within easy reach."

"We in Dashun can be considered to have a decent family. I can rest assured that Uncle Liu is in charge of government affairs."

The other generals of the Shun Army also nodded. Now the territory of the Shun Army has finally returned to before Li Zicheng abandoned Xiangyang.

De'an and Chengtian are within easy reach, and Jingzhou and Xiangyang are already available, plus Changde.

Shunjun already barely owns a province, and it's time to manage it well and build its own base.

After more than ten years in Kuidong, even the most ignorant people should understand the benefits of business.

Even Hao Yaoqi, a general of the Shun Army who only knew how to plunder, has been farming in Fangxian County for many years.

There is no other reason, it’s just the environment that affects people.

In the past, if the generals of the Shun army did not farm, they could still rob them, but they were trapped in Kuidong for more than ten years.

The scope of activities of the Shunjun generals did not extend beyond Yunyang and Xiangyang to the north, and to the east did not extend beyond Yiling and Jingzhou.

It can’t reach more than Changde and Yongding in the south, and can’t reach more than Fuzhou and Chongqing in the west.

Being trapped in this area, he would have starved to death if he didn't farm.

Therefore, not only Li Laiheng, Liu Tichun, Yuan Zongdi and others, everyone in the Kuidong Thirteen Family is running the business and farming.

It's just that Liu Tichun's results are the best.

Therefore, leaving Jingxiang's government affairs to him was the best choice.

"Little tiger, Jingzhou has been conquered. I don't have any objection to leaving the government affairs to Old Liu Zai to coordinate. It's just that our territory has been carefully demarcated." He Zhen said.

Although the Kuidong generals were united, they were an alliance and not a political power after all.

Although the Shun Army is relatively united and has always been consistent on major issues, it still cannot be compared with the Li Zicheng era.

Although Li Laiheng was powerful and favored by Li Zicheng and Li Guo, he had an extraordinary status in the Shun army.

But after all, he is not Li Zicheng.

Therefore, things like food and salary and government affairs were coordinated by Liu Tichun, and He Zhen and others had no objection.

After all, Liu Tichun's abilities are there and his character is good, so everyone can rest assured.

But the territory should be drawn clearly!

As soon as these words came out, Li Laiheng frowned slightly.

But there was nothing he could do about it. Kuidong had always been like this. Although everyone was more tolerant towards him, he couldn't go too far to avoid breaking everyone's hearts.

Soon among the five mansions, Jingzhou mansion belonged to Li Laiheng.

Changde Mansion belonged to Liu Tichun.

Yuan Zongdi and Ma Chongxi shared Chengtian Mansion, while Ta Tianbao and Dang Shousu occupied De'an Mansion.

Hao Yaoqi and He Zhen were placed in Xiangyang Mansion on their territory.

In addition, Wang Guangxing and Li Furong were arranged into Yunyang Mansion.

In addition to Jingzhou, Xiangyang, and Changde, the remaining cities of Chengtian, De'an, and Yunyang still need to be attacked.

Officials in various places are arranged by themselves, but Liu Tichun can preside over the overall government affairs, intervene in the government affairs of various places, and provide food and salaries for various ministries.

After all, the generals in Kuidong now have a promising future, not just the existing three mansions and the three mansions that are about to be obtained.

The entire Central Plains is now exposed to their military front.

With such a great prospect, everyone can naturally reach an agreement quickly and prepare to send troops out of Xiangyang to seize the Central Plains.

Early the next morning, at the vegetable market in Jingzhou City, a man with a pigtail name was escorted in front of the people.

Zheng Siwei's whole family and the middle and high-level officers under his command had to be executed in public. Those who deserved to be Ling Chi, skinned those who deserved, and chopped in half.

"Master Jun, the old woman is willing to die if she knows her crime, but my grandson is only six years old!"

Zheng Siwei's old mother held Zheng Siwei's young son and cried: "Please show mercy to the military master and let my grandson live."

Before she finished speaking, the old woman was crying while holding her grandson, looking quite pitiful.

Liu Rukui and Guo Sheng, who were in charge of supervising the beheadings, smiled coldly.

If Zheng Siwei's family members were let go, who should they ask to pay for the tragic death of the Dashun Army thirteen years ago?

These bandits of the Dashun Army are not merciful people.

"Hmph! I am responsible for supervising the beheading, how can I disobey the orders from above?" Liu Rukui sneered. "Master, please be merciful. Even if the old lady goes to the underworld, she will pray to the Bodhisattva for you."

Zheng Siwei's old mother cried loudly.

Liu Rukui and Guo Sheng looked at each other. They were already in the underworld. How could they still pray to the Bodhisattva?

What's more, they don't believe in Bodhisattva either.

"This is absolutely impossible. Old lady, just take your grandson to meet Zheng Siwei."

Guo Sheng smiled slightly and ignored Zheng Siwei's mother's plea.

Then at this moment a loud shout sounded.

"Absurd, the Mongols know not to kill children who are lower than the wheel when massacring the city."

Zheng Siwei's old father said angrily: "Is it possible that you so-called Dashun rebels are worse than the Mongolian Tatars!"

"Wheel?" Liu Rukui smiled jokingly, and then said:

"Come here, find a wheel and weigh this little traitor."

"What?" Guo Sheng was shocked and said quickly: "Old Liu, are you crazy!"

"The execution of Zheng Siwei's family is unanimously agreed by all the commanders. How can you and I disobey the order?"

"Just for fun, this old bastard and little bastard, you might as well find some fun for me before I die." Liu Rukui smiled slightly.

"Hmph!" Guo Sheng said angrily: "I'll see how you end it later!"

"Master Jun, if my grandson is not taller than a wheel, can you spare his life?"

"Haha, that's natural." Liu Rukui stroked his beard and said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, Zheng Siwei and his wife were surprised and happy, but then they became worried again.

As the youngest son of Zheng Siwei, the child in the old woman's arms has been well-fed and clothed since childhood.

Although he is only six years old, he eats a lot of meat and fish every day, and his height is growing rapidly!

If it were higher than the wheel, wouldn't his life be in vain?

"Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless."

Zheng Siwei's old mother prayed quickly, hoping that her grandson could escape this disaster.

"It's all my fault, I usually feed him too much!"

Zheng Siwei's old father had a sad look on his face, and felt extremely nervous when he looked at his fat and white grandson.

As Zheng Siwei is the commander-in-chief of Jingzhou, one can imagine the living conditions at home.

But now, his old father has already regretted it very much.

I regret feeding my grandson too much. If this goes beyond the wheel, then the old Zheng family will be in ruins!

Soon a wheel was delivered to Liu Rukui.

When Zheng Siwei, his father and mother saw this, their hearts suddenly became cold.

This turned out to be the wheel of a small car. The intruder in front of him clearly wanted his grandson to die!

"Master..." Zheng Siwei's old father was about to speak.

Unexpectedly, Liu Rukui shouted loudly.

"Come find the wheels of the cart, don't let these two old beasts die with their eyes open, and they will still talk about me when they get to the Lord of Hell."

"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master!"

As soon as these words came out, the two old men kowtowed quickly.

Soon a cart wheel was delivered.

"Measure this little beast."

Liu Rukui spoke slowly, and two soldiers from the Shun Army immediately came to the old woman.

"Grandma, I'm afraid." Zheng Siwei's youngest son said timidly.

"My dear grandson, don't be afraid, listen to the military master." The old woman said with tears in her eyes.

The child stood up and stood next to the wheel under the nervous gazes of the two old men.

In the eyes of everyone, the two were almost parallel, but in the end Zheng Siwei's youngest son was still a little shorter than the wheel.

"Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless, my grandson is saved!"

The old woman was extremely excited and kept chanting about Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Zheng Siwei's old father was also in tears because his grandson was not taller than the wheel.

Lao Zheng’s family has a heir!

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master." The two men kowtowed in thanks.

"Old Liu, let me see how you end up now." Guo Sheng sneered.

Liu Rukui smiled strangely when he heard this.

"Wait a minute, don't be in a hurry to thank me."

He stood up and said to the soldiers of the Shun Army who were measuring: "Who told you to put the wheels upright?"

"Quickly lay it sideways for me, and then measure this little beast!"

"Ah——!" Guo Sheng was stunned when he heard this.

The two old people were stunned on the spot, and the rest of the people were also stunned by Liu Rukui's words.

"Didn't you hear? Why don't you put it sideways!" Liu Rukui smiled slightly and spoke again.

The two soldiers of the Shun Army reacted and put the wheel on the ground with a snap.

"Two old beasts, look, your grandson is so tall, what else is there to say?"

"Come here, put this little beast to death together." Liu Rukui said with a stern look on his face.

"Master, please have mercy!" the old woman quickly screamed.

"Rogue, roving bandit! How could you do this!" Zheng Siwei's old father was so angry that he was shaking all over, pointing at Liu Rukui's nose and yelling.

"Hmph! The wheels have been measured, what else do you want to say, you old beast?"

"How about I show my kindness again and give your precious grandson, Zheng Siwei's precious son, another, no! Two wheels?"

Liu Rukui laughed wildly, his words full of joking.

"It's no harm to my wife and children!" Zheng Siwei's old father roared in grief and anger, with tears streaming down his face.

"Hmph! Even though I haven't read a book, I still know that it will not harm my wife and children. There is also the previous sentence, it will not benefit my wife and children!"

Liu Rukui sneered: "Your traitor son killed so many people in Dashun. You two old beasts and this little beast have enjoyed so many blessings over the years thanks to Zheng Siwei."

"If you can sever ties with him, I will naturally not cause trouble for you, but you people have enjoyed Jingzhou for so many years."

"It's fine now. Zheng Siwei was cut to pieces and fed to dogs."

"When this happened, I just said it would not harm my wife and children, so I wanted to take him out, but there was no way!"

"Come here, behead Zheng Siwei's father, strangle his youngest son to death, and leave a whole body for this little beast."

"Commander is so righteous." The surrounding Shunjun officers laughed.

"Remember, when dealing with traitors, we have to put the wheels sideways, chop the earthworms vertically, and even shake the eggs in their homes to make them yellow!" Liu Rukui said happily, educating his subordinates. (End of chapter)
