Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Therefore, for the current Daping Dynasty, the lack of food, money, and officials is simply a waste of time.Moreover, the Daping Dynasty continued to fight against powerful enemies, and did not concentrate on governing internal affairs, so as to recuperate and change the running-in.Therefore, in the current Daping Dynasty, Wu Shigong's ability to govern the country is highly valued.

After reading the memorial about Li Zicheng's Dashun Army, Wu Shigong began to carefully browse the information on Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi Army collected by the Shanchuan Division and the Military Intelligence Bureau.And this information can only be described in eight characters—shocking!Absolutely miserable!

Because Li Zicheng's Dashun Army stormed the northwest first, and then conquered the capital; then the Dashun Army was defeated in Yutian, and the Qing Army entered the capital for the second time; finally, the Runing Army's Yellow Bird was behind, and Wu Shigong became the Nine Five Supreme.Therefore, Zhang Xianzhong, who could not see any future, immediately fell into a kind of morbid hysteria.

According to general principles, since Zhang Xianzhong entered Sichuan and established the Daxi Kingdom, he should treat this land of abundance as his own base and manage it well. Unexpectedly, he was carrying out the carnival of the last days inhumanely.

Perhaps Zhang Xianzhong already knew: no matter who wins the world, he will not be allowed to rule in partial security, and his end will only perish, so he will kill, a mentality that I can't get, and you can't get it either.

This is like a person who knows that his wealth is about to become someone else's rich man. Anyway, he can no longer enjoy it, but he is not willing to let others get it, so he throws, smashes, burns and kills.But for Zhang Xianzhong who has become crazy, he has done even more.

Although the information Wu Shigong sees now is only a leak.But still seeing Wu Shigong is thrilling, with the pain of tearing his liver and gallbladder.

Zhang Xianzhong's massacre in Sichuan, in addition to the general method of killing with a knife and chopping.He also created several methods of killing himself, and added them to different targets.The soldiers and bandits have always been in chaos, and the people, old and young, women and children, have suffered the most.Every time Zhang Xianzhong's army fell into one side, except for a few young women who were captured to serve as camp prostitutes, the rest were afraid of affecting the morale of the army, so they killed all of them.even when food is scarce.It even kills women and pickles them and fills them with army rations.

If there is a pregnant woman, the male and female will be tested by caesarean section.For infants and young children in the arms, throw them into the air, and catch them with the tip of the knife.It is fun to watch its hands and feet dance.This is named "Snow Loach".The older children or juveniles, in groups of hundreds, formed a circle with firewood, and the soldiers outside the circle stabbed them with spears and halberds.Watch its call sign and walk around to help you enjoy yourself.This name is "Guanxi".

The most heinous thing is to deal with people who are slightly resistant or verbally dissatisfied.They were captured and peeled off the back skin from the ridges and grooves, uncovered to the shoulders, and draped over the shoulders. They were rushed to the suburbs, and it was strictly forbidden for the people to keep them for food. Most of them lived in ancient tombs, and died for more than a month.If the executioner made the criminal die at that time, he could not suffer this living crime.The executioner was also skinned.This is named "Small Peeling".

In addition, Zhang Xianzhong was born reckless, vulgar and illiterate.Out of an instinct of suspicion and hatred of cultural people, he must kill scholars.His Daxi regime placed officials in various prefectures and towns in Sichuan, and used military orders to force the surrounding scholars and gentry to come to the towns, enter through the east gate and exit through the west gate, and kill them all.

Only two months after the capture of Chengdu, 7000 Jinshi, Juren, and Gongsheng were killed outside the east gate.He also summoned the students, took out a [-]-square-foot banner, and asked them to write the word "handsome" all over it, and they had to write it in one stroke, so that those who could survive would not die.Wang Zhidao, a student from Jiajiang, bound grass into a brush, soaked it in a large vat of ink for three days, and wrote it directly.Zhang Xianzhong looked at it carefully and said: "You have the talent to do this, and I will do it if you want to do it in the future!" Immediately kill the sacrificial flag.Anyway, it was an unreasonable massacre, which basically left those scholars with no way out.

After that, Zhang Xianzhong opened a course to obtain a scholar.Strictly force scholars from all states and counties to come to take the exam, and those who do not come will be beheaded, and they will sit in ten neighbors.He set up a long rope four feet (about 1.3 meters) above the ground in front of the Chengdu Gongyuan, and let the candidates pass the rope one by one. Anyone who was taller than the rope would be rushed to the Qingyang Palace outside the west gate to kill them.There were more than ten thousand people before and after, and the deceased left behind a pile of pens and inkstones. Zhang Xianzhong went to watch, clapping his palms and laughing.

What is even more unbelievable is that Zhang Xianzhong committed suicide by self-destructing while other people were venomous.One night, one of his youngest sons passed by the hall. Zhang called out, but the son didn't answer, so he ordered to kill him.The next morning, he regretted it, summoned his wives and concubines to ask them why they didn't save them last night, and ordered all the wives and concubines and the knife and axe who killed the young son to be killed.

The strange things are not limited to these, as Zhang Xianzhong became anxious, he actually started to massacre his own soldiers.When there are no more people around to kill, he commits suicide.First kill the Shu soldiers, the Shu soldiers are exhausted, the second kill the Chu soldiers, the Chu soldiers are exhausted, and then kill the Qin soldiers who were in trouble together.And this behavior even the generals of the Great West Army couldn't stand it, but Zhang Xianzhong blamed his subordinates for their ineffectiveness in killing people, cursing: "I only need [-] strong men to run rampant in the world, what do I need so many people to do!"

Especially women, it is like falling into hell.Whenever the Western Army was besieging the city, if they encountered fierce resistance, Zhang Xianzhong would let the captured women naked to insult the city.

As for the captive women, all the pretty ones were raped to death, then their heads were cut off, and the bodies were buried upside down in the soil.The woman's lower body is facing upwards, which they believe can suppress the artillery fire.

Except for one situation where women can be spared death, that is, as soon as Zhang Xianzhong's soldiers entered the people's homes, the women in the house pretended to be very willing and took the initiative to have sex with the soldiers.Therefore, where Zhang Xianzhong's soldiers passed by, the women had to come out first and undress themselves for them to insult, so as to have a chance to save the lives of the family.So those folk girls were horrified and had no choice but to volunteer themselves one after another, more like prostitutes than prostitutes.

And when Zhang Xianzhong captured a city, he had to select a few beautiful and beautiful women to stay with him in turn among the captured women.These beauties wear colorful dresses on their upper bodies and nothing on their lower bodies.No matter what time and place, as soon as Zhang Xianzhong became sexually active, he immediately ordered these beauties to lie on the ground and commit rape.When he got tired of playing, he would wash and kill them, and eat them steamed or boiled.Sometimes he couldn't wait for these beauties to be cooked, so he chomped with blood.

After entering Sichuan, Zhang Xianzhong suffered from malaria, and he made a wish to God that if he recovered from his illness, he would offer "two candles to the sky" as a tribute to God. It was not until he recovered from his illness that people around him understood what this meant.

Zhang Xianzhong ordered the soldiers to cut off the women's slender feet, and each soldier had to donate at least ten pairs of small feet.Those soldiers like wolves and tigers searched for women's slender feet, and whenever they encountered a woman, they would cut off the feet first.In less than half a day, the little feet in the barracks had piled up like a mountain.Zhang Xianzhong ordered people to pile up the collected three-inch feet into the shape of a mountain, which is called Lianfeng.

Unexpectedly, this demon king in the world was not satisfied.When he looked back and saw that his concubine's feet were also very small, he cut them off and piled them on the top of Lianfeng, and then burned these small feet, which was called lighting candles to the sky.As for the men, their heads were beheaded or their butts cut off, and they were also piled together and exposed to the sun.

Under Zhang Xianzhong's massacre, Sichuan was a thousand miles away.After killing the civilians, Zhang Xianzhong sent his henchmen to eavesdrop among the soldiers. If the soldiers complained occasionally, the whole family would be killed.

Under such killings, the city in Chuanzhong was covered with arches of trees, wild dogs ate human flesh as ferociously as tigers and leopards, killed people on the road, and left without eating clean.The remaining people fled to the mountains, wearing straw clothes and hair all over their bodies (lack of salt).

Such bloody and tearful accusations made Wu Shigong very worried.He immediately commented: "The Zhang thief is unforgivable! The Daxi thief is unforgivable!" After that, he threw down the ink brush to calm his mood.

However, after reading the information of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, Wu Shigong has gained a lot of confidence in Xue Yong's Northwest Raiders.As long as Xue Yong's tactics of attacking the east and attacking the west are effective, Li Zicheng's Dashun Army will surely cease to exist.And Zhang Xianzhong, who has already destroyed himself, is nothing to fear.

Even if the results are unfavorable, the Daping Army can also withdraw to Shanxi and Henan.After all, there are Zhou Xun and Zhang Biao's Xiongchui Town behind them, Runing and Guide left behind, the Runing army commanded by Xue Qiang, and the local troops in Shanxi as support.Moreover, Li Zicheng's Dashun Army did not have enough troops to counterattack.

After resting for a while, Wu Shigong began to read Nanming's battle report.

The accurate news that Beijing had been captured by Li Zicheng and that Emperor Chongzhen had committed suicide did not reach Nanjing until late August. The ministers of the Ming Dynasty in Nanjing hurriedly prepared to support the new emperor amidst great grief and grief.So the political forces of various factions fought and fought intensely for a month, and finally appointed Fu Wang Zhu Yousong as emperor and changed Yuan Hongguang.

Emperor Hongguang ascended the throne on September [-]th. Immediately after ascending the throne, he decreed that Emperor Chongzhen should discuss his posthumous posthumous title.On September [-]th, the posthumous title was agreed, the full name is "Shao Tian Yi Dao, Gang Ming Ke Jian, Kui Wen Fen Wu, Dun Ren Mao Xiao Lie Emperor", the temple name "Sizong", the posthumous title is "Si", and the posthumous title is "Si". "Strong" especially highlights the mourning for Emperor Chongzhen's "death to benevolence".

Later, someone pointed out that the word "Si" was once the posthumous title of Liu Chan, the empress of the Shu Han Dynasty. It is extremely inappropriate to use "Si" to refer to Emperor Chongzhen. ".

Then, Wen Bing, the son of Wen Zhenmeng, who had been a bachelor for a month in the Chongzhen Dynasty, was given the posthumous title of the first emperor, "Emperor Liezongzheng". "Although Wen Bing's views were very representative at the time, out of the pain of subjugation and deep nostalgia for the motherland, the survivors inevitably showed special enthusiasm for the last emperor who was the symbol of the motherland.

What's more, "since ancient times, the only death is difficult". After all, Emperor Chongzhen killed himself and died for the country, so death is regarded as heroic and extraordinary, and it is "benevolence" that fits with each other. Not fighting for the destiny has become "wisdom", and an angry remark before death has become "propriety", complete with benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom, it is almost independent of heaven and earth, and it will last forever.

It's ridiculous that these ministers are busy playing these word games, but don't pay attention to how to keep the small court of Nanming. (To be continued..)
