Go back to the end of the Ming Dynasty to be a soldier

Chapter 416 Li Chengdong Arrested

Li Chengdong knew this person too well, it was Xu Dingguo.

This is his best staff member and best brother, both of them used to be Gao Jie's right-hand men, and he was also one of the masterminds of this rebellion.

But in the process of fighting with the Ming army, this man suddenly turned against Gao Jie and surrendered to the Ming army. Li Chengdong saw it with his own eyes.

From that moment, Li Chengdong knew that the two of them had parted ways, from like-minded comrades to life-and-death enemies!

Now he is aggressive with his troops, apparently looking for him.

Li Chengdong gritted his teeth secretly, and he asked Xing to get under the bed and pretend to be sick. Now Xing is also frightened, his heart is beating wildly, his body is uneasy, everything is at Li Chengdong's mercy.

The two quickly hid the knife, cleaned up the room briefly, grabbed ashes and wiped their faces, just then the Ming army arrived at the door.

"Come... who is it?"

Li Chengdong bowed his waist on purpose, with a hoarse voice, weak, and slowly walking towards the door like an old man.

At this time, the Ming army had already sealed off the yard and searched it when they entered.

First, take the images of the two people, first compare Li Chengdong, and then compare Xing Shi on the bed.

At that time, Li Chengdong and Xing's heart jumped out, because they both saw that the head portrait was their own.They have prepared all the hidden sharp blades, and if they can't do it, they will go all out, kill one to make money, and kill two to earn one.

But these Ming armies were hard to compare.It's not that these Ming soldiers are blind, but because Li Chengdong and Xing's appearance have changed now.

Now Li Chengdong was cut on the head. Although three days have passed, he is still wrapped in rags.

Xing's changed even more, she was wearing ragged clothes, her hair was fluffy, like firewood, without the luster and suppleness of the past, and her face was covered with dust. On the surface, she looked like a full-fledged old housewife.

In these few days of fleeing life, the two of them were neither human nor ghost, they couldn't eat, drink or sleep well, they were worried, Li Chengdong and Form obviously lost weight, their complexions were turmeric, as if they were suffering from a serious illness.

However, these two portraits were drawn by Li Chengdong. Based on the impressions of him and Xing's servant girl, the artist had to revise them repeatedly until they all looked alike before finalizing the two portraits.

Therefore, there is a big contrast between these two portraits and these two real people at this time.

Li Chengdong in the painting is a bit mighty, not very good-looking, but full of energy, with a red face, about 40 years old.

Mrs. Xing is a great beauty, with eyebrows and temples drawn, powder and flowers on her face, her face is as white as jade, and her waist is slender.

In fact, the two people now have truly become old men and old ladies.

Therefore, these Ming soldiers took portraits and compared them with real people, but they did not recognize them.

But this scene scared Li Chengdong and Xing shi enough.

This is also in line with the identities of the two actors, two honest old farmer couples who are both sick.

What Xing plays is that the wife of the house fell ill, and the army was in turmoil. The son, daughter-in-law and grandson all left, leaving the old couple behind.

Li Chengdong played the role of an old man serving an old lady. He went to the toilet in the past two nights and accidentally broke his head again.

When these Ming soldiers saw it, they didn't see any flaws.

Because when Li Chengdong and Xing Shi had to talk, they deliberately used hoarse voices that were weak and weak.

However, the Ming army still carried out a careful search. Some guarded the gate of the courtyard, and some guarded the gate of the house.

Of course they couldn't find it after searching for a long time, so they reported to Xu Dingguo one after another.

At this time, Xu Dingguo came into the house from the courtyard. Li Chengdong and Xing Shi had just breathed a sigh of relief, but their hearts immediately hung up. Li Chengdong quickly lowered his head in fright, and secretly grasped the sharp knife. Xing Shi Lying in bed, the knife is also ready, and the two of them are ready to fight desperately at any time.

Xu Dingguo entered the room and looked around.

Xu Dingguo's face was gloomy. It had been several days, and Li Chengdong was not found.If Li Chengdong cannot be caught, he knows that you will definitely not spare him.Because Ji Dong had made it clear to him at the beginning, if he wanted to make up for his mistakes, he had to catch Li Chengdong.

Xu Dingguo knew Li Chengdong best and thought he would never run away.He knew that Li Chengdong was cunning and lustful, and he also knew that Li Chengdong was secretly ambiguous with the Xing family. tent.But the house is already empty, not only Gao Jie is not there, but Xing's is also not there.

He ordered a search, even if they dug three feet into the ground and they dug them out.

I tossed and tossed until dawn, but I didn't see the shadow of Gao Jie and Form.Was Xu Dingguo, who had been tossing around for a long time, really disappointed?

But not for nothing, they seized a carriage and an army.Of course the maid of the Xing family was in the carriage. This army was Gao Jie's subordinate, and of course it was also his Xu Dingguo's subordinate. They used to be a family.

Therefore, after interrogation, these people confessed truthfully in order to survive.

Xu Dingguo was overjoyed when he heard that, and finally got a clue, well, you Li bra, Li bellyband, Li underwear, you dare to come out of your shell like a golden cicada, let's see where you are going this time?
Xu Dingguo reported to Lin Yi immediately after returning.

When Lin Yi heard this, he knew that this was a guy with endless troubles, and he had to be eradicated completely, because Lin Yi was too impressed with Li Chengdong, whose hands were stained with the blood of countless Han people in history, even if Zuo Liangyu and Gao Jie could be spared, Xu Dingguo could not spare Li Chengdong either.

Taking a step back, even if Wu Sangui can be spared, Li Chengdong cannot be spared.Because these two people in history were hard-core traitors, and the crimes they committed against the Han compatriots are too numerous to record.

In comparison, Li Chengdong is better than Wu Sangui.

Now that this guy's reactionary nature has been exposed, he has to be stabbed.

Therefore, Lin Yi told Xu Dingguo that Li Chengdong must be caught at all costs, and he would be given a maximum of 5 days. If Li Chengdong could not be caught within 5 days, he would be completely let go.But it’s still the same sentence, don’t kill innocent people indiscriminately, don’t harass the people, if one more casualty is made, then he will suffer an extra blow.

Of course Li Chengdong knew what Lin Yi meant by saying this?
So Xu Dingguo knelt at Ji Dong's feet and promised, wiped his sweat and begged Ji Dong to send him more people, and he wanted to carry out a city-wide search.

Lin Yi readily agreed to increase the manpower from the original 1000 to the current 5000, and let the general Dong Sheng be assigned to him temporarily, and the soldiers of the other battalions must cooperate with him no matter whose defense area is involved.

Ji Dong secretly told Dong Sheng that if Xu Dingguo jumped the wall and wanted to play tricks, get rid of him first.

In this way, all the city gates were closed, Xu Dingguo ordered someone to draw a personal portrait, and spent a few extra copies, so that the accompanying soldiers and generals could hold them in their hands, and Dong Sheng personally led the troops to carry out a large-scale search with a net , From the south of the city to the north of the city, from the east to the west of the city, large and small alleys, abandoned buildings, go door to door, wherever possible to hide people, no one is spared.

In this way, I searched for three days and three nights, but still found nothing.

Now Xu Dingguo felt that he had underestimated Li Chengdong too much, and thought that it was too easy to catch him, but he couldn't find anyone.It can be 100% sure that he has not left the city, but in the big city of Chengdu, finding someone is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

But no matter how difficult it is to get this needle, you have to get it, because it is related to your own wealth, life and future.Did this kid get into a mouse hole?Now there is only one alley in the north of the city that has not been searched. If there is no Li Chengdong here, I will not be able to explain to the Lord Supervisor, and I will have to move my head at that time.

Therefore, in the past two days, Xu Dingguo got angry even in a hurry, couldn't eat well, and couldn't sleep well. His eyes were full of red threads, his face looked tired, and he lost more than 10 catties.

There were probably more than 100 households in this street. After all the intersections were killed by soldiers, he and Dongsheng each took hundreds of soldiers, one from the east to the west, and one from the west of the village to the east, and went door-to-door to investigate.

Now this one is gone again!

Xu Dingguo was so frustrated, no matter how hard he stared, he couldn't find anyone. If it wasn't for Lin Yi's order not to kill innocent people indiscriminately or harass the people, he would have started killing people a long time ago.

But now he was in a terrible mood, and seeing no one was pleasing to his eyes, especially when he saw the trembling Li Chengdong standing by the bed, he yelled: "Damn old man, get the hell out of here!"

At this time, Li Chengdong was already terrified, and he hoped that the god of plague would leave earlier. When he was muttering to himself, he didn't expect Xu Dingguo to call him, and Li Chengdong couldn't help but feel bitter secretly. Xu Dingguo's eight generations of ancestors have all scolded him, but they dare not stop.

Li Chengdong lowered his head, bowed his waist, held two shirts in front of his body with his arms, and seemed to be a little afraid of the cold, moving forward slowly. He was scared on the surface, but he was even more scared in his heart. There was an ambush here, because he had already hidden a short knife in his arms.

"Have you ever seen these two people before, show me carefully!" Xu Dingguo personally held the picture and shouted at Li Chengdong who came up to him.

Li Chengdong cursed inwardly as if he had eaten bitter melon, "You're fucking blind!"

But how dare he say it, he just kept shaking his head vigorously.

Suddenly Xu Dingguo felt something was wrong, because he saw that the head of the man in front of him was wrapped like a silk thread, but he had a mole on his left ear, which was the size of a fly's head. He suddenly remembered that Li Chengdong also had such a mole on his left ear.

Such a coincidence?His heart turned, and he couldn't help staring at Li Chengdong's face. Since he lowered his head, Xu Dingguo grabbed his chin and dragged him up.

This time, the two of them were face to face, with their eyes facing each other.

"Um?……"

Now I can see clearly, who is this old man in front of me if he is not pretending to be Li Chengdong?Xu Dingguo was startled, but before he had time to rejoice, Li Chengdong struck. He was prepared and took out the dagger from his arms, and suddenly stabbed Li Chengdong viciously in the chest and abdomen.

Xu Dingguo is also full of martial arts, but it was too unexpected at this time. He didn't react to Li Chengdong's sudden attack. In addition, he was holding a picture, which also blocked his eyes.

Therefore, the knife was actually stabbed in.

Because Li Chengdong was too ruthless, the knife was strong, and it stabbed Xu Dingguo through at once, and the blade of the short knife came from
The back was exposed, and the blood was soaring.

Xu Dingguo was stabbed with a muffled groan, his body shook suddenly, his eyes seemed to be stuck, and the hand holding the image loosened and the image scattered, while the other hand raised halfway, pointing at Li Chengdong, " you……"

This word was not complete, Li Chengdong pulled out his knife, "Go to hell!" While gritting his teeth and saying these words, his hands were not idle, and he stabbed him more than a dozen times one after another until Xu Dingguo's chest and abdomen were broken. He was stabbed into a sieve, and his body was limp on his body.

Inside and outside the courtyard are full of Ming troops, there are hundreds of them, but no one can save Xu Dinguo at this time.

Because the incident in front of him was so sudden that even Xu Dingguo didn't react. Although the soldiers of the Ming army he brought were elite soldiers, they were a little slow at this moment. When they reacted, even if Xu Dingguo had ten lives. I can't survive.

"Quick, grab him!" The Ming army officers and soldiers present shouted, pulling their swords and guns and charging upwards.

"Madam, go away!" Li Chengdong knew that today was over, he took a short knife and fought with these Ming soldiers, shouting at Xing while fighting.

At this time, Mrs. Xing didn't pretend to be sick anymore. Seeing that her defeat was exposed, she couldn't do anything without desperately. She threw off the quilt on her body, took the steel knife under the quilt, and jumped up from the bed all at once. Then he flew and smashed the window, and rolled out of the house, but the outside was full of Ming troops.

At this time, the soldiers of the Ming army in the room understood everything when they saw it. These two were dressed up by Li Chengdong and Xing Shi, and they were found, concealed enough!

Therefore, the Ming army inside and outside the house surrounded them one after another, and they messed up.

Both Xing and Li Chengdong were full of martial arts skills, but they were outnumbered after all. They just tossed from the house to the outside and wounded several soldiers of the Ming army. Give him a sigh of relief, because Lin Yi has an order, and Li Chengdong had better live, but Xing and his supervisor did not order, so the two of them will be treated differently.

The battle ended without even smoking a cigarette, and Li Chengdong, who was covered in blood, was tied up...

After more than an hour, Li Chengdong was escorted to Lin Yi.

At this time, Gao Guiying, Li Yan, Song Xiance, Li Guo, Liu Fangliang, etc. were all there. Li Zicheng's former subordinates had long hated Li Chengdong, and Gao Jie was a nest of snakes and rats. Today, they can be regarded as catching a living one, and they can't wait to eat his flesh. drink its blood.

At this time, Li Zaidong was even more inhuman, half dead. Dong Sheng reported to Lin Yi the details of Li Chengdong's arrest. Of course, how many soldiers of the Ming army he killed and how many innocent people he injured were also interrogated.

Lin Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Such a heinous person, let's see how to deal with him?"

"Your Excellency, of course he must be executed immediately, not less than 5000 knives."

"My lord, throw this thief into the frying pan and fry it."

"My lord, how about skinning, gouging out eyes, and lighting sky lanterns?"

"My lord, how about trying the torture?"...

There was a lot of discussion, scrambling to offer advice and suggestions.

At this time, Li Chengdong was so frightened that he kowtowed to Lin Yi and begged for mercy, expressing his willingness to change his past, as long as he was spared, he was willing to do the work of a dog and a horse. Kowtowing.

Seeing this, if Ji Dong and the generals don't spare him, he won't stop until he is knocked to death or fainted.

Lin Yi sneered and said: "Listen, Li Chengdong, stop messing around, it's useless. Even if all the dogs in the world are dead, Lin will not let you be a dog, because you are not worthy! But don't treat you too much." If it’s too cruel, let’s grind it, it’s quite creative.”

Lin Yi chose one.The so-called one-crushing torture is also a kind of torture, which is to let heavy objects run over the prisoner.

Soon Li Chengdong was stripped of his clothes and fixed on the hard ground. He found a big stone roller half the height of a person, and a dozen soldiers from the military camp pushed it, crushing him from his feet to his head.

With heart-piercing screams and the sound of boulders crushing flesh and blood, Li Chengdong really lost his human form, was crushed into meatloaf, blood flowed all over the ground, and the stone roller was stuck everywhere .

Li Chengdong had such a tragic end. Of course, because of Lin Yi's time travel, his fate was also changed. In history, Li Chengdong committed even more heinous crimes.

In history, this person betrayed three times in his life, first he betrayed Li Zicheng and surrendered to Ming Dynasty, then he betrayed Daming and surrendered to Qing Dynasty, and then he rebelled against Qing Dynasty and restored Ming Dynasty; he killed two emperors, Emperor Longwu and Emperor Shaowu; he abducted others One of his wives is Gao Jie's wife Xing.Although the Xing family was abducted from Li Zicheng by Gao Jie, Li Chengdong abducted this woman after Gao Jie's death, which is still despised.

But his "Three Two Ones" was not his biggest crime. In order to serve the Manchu Qing, he became a traitor and became the vanguard of the Qing Dynasty to destroy the remnants of the Ming Dynasty. He single-handedly created the Jiading Three Massacres. Nearly [-] soldiers and civilians were brutally killed, which is bloody and cruel.

Now, because of Ji Dong's time travel, of course he doesn't have the chance to commit crimes like this.

Gao Jie, Xu Dingguo and Li Chengdong all got what they deserved, the news spread, and everyone was very happy.It is even more deterrent to the rebellion, like Liu Zeliang and Liu Liangzuo, their hearts are jumping, such ruthless Lord Supervisor!But do not disobey him.Especially Zuo Liangyu's generals, including Zuo Liangzhu himself, felt a little shuddering from the cold wind on the back of their necks. They couldn't help feeling a little more awe of Lin Yi while being grateful, and they didn't dare to have second thoughts anymore.

The soldiers and horses in the city have almost recuperated in the past few days. After Sun Kewang was defeated last time, he did not dare to call for battle again, but Lin Yi felt that he should take the initiative to attack, and it was time to destroy their elephant army, so he ordered Zuo Liangyu The remnants of more than 1000 troops led by Ma Gaojie who surrendered also belonged to Zuo Liangyu, with nearly 2 troops, and asked them to go out of the city tomorrow to lure the enemy.

Zuo Liangyu generously agreed, and the next morning, after a full meal, he took the initiative to send his son Zuo Menggeng to Lin Yi as a hostage, and then led 2 people to fight out of Kaesong...
