Chapter 377
All this happened so suddenly. When Liu Minghui received the news and arrived at the scene, Gao Qiqian was already dead and his body became hard.
"What's going on?"
Wang Yong was very embarrassed at this time, his face was blue and purple, and his body was rotten: "Marty, when our family saw the prisoners mutiny earlier, they hurried over to quell the riots. Who knew these prisoners..."
Liu Mingyu was not a fool either. He saw the problem at a glance. In this riot, seventeen people died and more than 600 people were injured. Except for the sixteen dead prisoners, only the eunuch Gao Qiqian was the only eunuch.
This made Liu Mingyu think a lot.
"How do you explain to the court now!"
Liu Mingyu stared at Wu Sangui and said, "You are Wu Sangui!"
At this time, Wu Sangui's face was very calm. When Gao Qiqian was alive, Gao Qiqian was his godfather and adopted father, but now Gao Qiqian is dead, that is a dead eunuch, and it has nothing to do with him.
"It's the last general!"
"You are at the scene of the crime!!"
"yes!"
"What happened at that time!"
"this……"
Wu Sangui is not a stupid person either. He also discovered that Gao Qiqian died. However, he did not dare to tell the truth. You must know that this person dared to kill Gao Qiqian, the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse, let alone him? This little Guanning Army vanguard battalion general?
Wu Sangui said: "The general of the Mo accompanied Eunuch Gao to come here to quell the riots. When Eunuch Gao saw the prisoners beating the prince, he asked the general to rescue Eunuch Wang. The general of the Mo led his servants to rescue Eunuch Wang, and Eunuch Gao would..."
Liu Mingyu walked up to Wang Yong: "How is Eunuch Wang feeling now?"
"Our family is so painful. Marquis, you have to make the decision for us!"
"Military Medical Officer, come here quickly to treat the wounded officer of the military supervisor!"
"yes!"
When the military doctor came over, Liu Mingyu lowered his voice and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Eunuch Wang, you'd better deal with your tail. This marquis knows nothing!"
Wang Yong laughed dryly: "We can save it!"
Under the polishing of Wang Yong's staff, a very detailed and reasonable memorial was sent to the imperial court. In this memorial written by Wang Yong, approved by Liu Mingyu, signed by Wu Sangui and others, the content of the memorial was that after the Battle of Jinan, the Liu family army completely wiped out more than 200,000 troops under the command of Mao Chenglu, the rebel leader.
Mao Chenglu's best friend and confidant were unwilling to fail, and conspired to create chaos, held Wang Yong hostage, and forced Liu Mingyu to release bandit leaders De Mao Chenglu, Chen Guangfu, Su Yougong and other important generals. However, just as Wang Yong was surrounded and beaten by the rebels, Gao Qiqian fought desperately to rescue Wang Yong. Unfortunately, he was kicked in the ribs by the rebels, and his ribs pierced the spleen and died young at the age of 45.
However, against these rebel prisoners, the soldiers of the Liu family also began to identify the prisoners. The 200,000 rebels were really huge. Anyone with the blood of the people in their hands would have to land. If the gentry and landlords were included, there would be few good people who needed to be killed.
If Shandong gentry was not considered as human beings, then most of these prisoners were good people. After three days of identification, more than 3,000 bandits were selected. These rebels were involved in the flower case and killed innocent people indiscriminately.
This was the first time that Liu Mingyu launched a massacre in Shandong. More than 3,000 rebels with hands covered with blood from ordinary people were chopped and killed in batches in front of the rebels.
The execution ground was full of corpses and blood flowed into a river. More than 200,000 prisoners of war were all shivered, their faces were as bright as earth. Several of them were even scared to death.
I guess this is the first time they know that massacre of others and being massacred is completely different from that of themselves? For the rest of their lives, this bloody scene will turn into their lingering nightmare. Most of them are trembling in the second half of their lives, abiding by laws and regulations, and dare not make any mistakes.
Liu Mingyu's killing chickens to warn monkeys was successful, not only for those rebels, but also for the new Liu family army. He cut off more than 3,000 prisoners that were enough to be the standard of war soldiers and even servants in one go. It was extremely rare in the history of the Ming army. He just wanted to use bloody facts to tell the soldiers of the Liu family that no matter how brave you are, as long as your hands are stained with the blood of the common people, you will die!
The remaining prisoners were very happy. The Liu family army adopted a division of labor system. Although Daning was also a garrison and had military households, the military household of this garrison and the military household of the Liu family were different from the military household.
This ward is more like the commune established before the 1980s. The commune system was once criticized, but it was not so bad, especially in the first twenty years, which had a very significant effect, which solved the problem of Chinese people's meals all the time. Although the population has been expanding, food security is always guaranteed.
The situation is much worse now than when the founding of the People's Republic of China. Land annexation is extremely serious, the land is exhausted, seeds are degraded, chemical fertilizers and pesticides are even more unthinkable. In this case, it would be a suicide if you divide the land into households.
Liu Mingyu could distribute the land to farmers, but farmers had no way to farm, and farming required capital, but small farmers did not have any way to deal with natural disasters. Therefore, Liu Mingyu took the opportunity to build a collective farm, which is the Daning Vanguard.
A total of thirteen new garages were built in Daning, which were actually more than 70 large farms, often with more than 19 million acres of land, mainly planting corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes. The grain produced by these garages will be distributed uniformly by Liu Mingyu. Their work income is their labor reform period. Only after completing the labor reform period can they gain freedom and their own land.
The soldiers of the Daning garrison were mainly bandits under Lao Huihui.
These more than 200,000 rebels, except for Mao Chenglu, Chen Guangfu, Su Yougong and other dozen important prisoners, were sent to the capital, and more than 3,000 beheaded heads were also sent to the capital as military merits.
When Liu Mingyu thought, the three thousand heads, plus the heads of Chen Guangfu, Mao Chenglu and others, were enough to calm Chongzhen's anger. As for the other prisoners, they were reorganized and transported to various islands controlled by the Dongjiang Army.
Liu Mingyu was not afraid of them running away. The island was just a huge cage, and they didn’t dare to swim without a boat. The water temperature is extremely low now, not to mention half an hour, but a quarter of an hour can freeze to death.
After the beginning of spring, the Liu family army will launch the battle in southern Liaoning and recapture the four prefectures in southern Liaoning. All these people will migrate to the four prefectures in southern Liaoning.
At first, these prisoners were a little worried about the reorganization, but when they heard that Liu Mingyu wanted to distribute land to them and plant land for Liu Mingyu for five years, the land they planted, as well as the ploughing tools, and oxen, became their property, the prisoners no longer resisted and cooperated very well.
I heard that there were land and houses, and these prisoners were so happy that they almost started to play yangge. Alas, if they had known that there were houses and fields, what else would they do to fight? Isn’t it enough to surrender directly?
