Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Du Chong didn't even scream, he was hit seven or eight times, and his forehead was swollen a lot.

"Don't...don't...don't bump, I said...I said..."

The class stopped straight.

Du Chong wailed in pain.

Li Fu looked at him coldly and said, "Don't tell me?"

"Shangguan, this is a trick of torture, you don't have any evidence..."

"No proof?" Li Fu cast another look at a person, and that person took out a pile of papers, "We asked you these things along the way before we came to you. Everyone knows that you are killing civilians. You were the one who I'm stupid, or you should treat everyone as stupid!"

"Those are the spies of the Jinren..."

The class straight suddenly pulled Du Chong over, grabbed his head, and hit the pillar again.

Hit to death!

"Don't...I...don't hit me...I'll do it!"

Du Chong's forehead was swollen like a birthday boy.

Li Fu glanced at the few officials who followed Du Chong, their faces turned blue with fright.

He said: "Everyone, don't be afraid. We all judge cases based on evidence. Du Chong killed civilians arbitrarily. You need to record a statement about this matter."

"Yes, yes, we must cooperate with Shangguan."

"It's all Du Chong's fault. This guy is angry with everyone..."

"..."

After recording the statement, Li Fu said to a young man in a white shirt on one side: "Wang Ke, I've been recruited. Do you have any questions?"

With a pen and paper in his hand, Wang Ke said, "I have nothing to ask. Please execute this beast immediately. About him, I will truthfully write it in the "Cangzhou Zhanshi Daily", so that everyone can get a better result." Everyone knows Du Chong's evil deeds, and let everyone on Hebei East Road know the court's determination to fight the war and its determination to the people."

When Du Chong heard that he was going to execute himself, he quickly wailed like a pig: "You can't kill me. I am the prefect of Cangzhou. I am the official of the court. I am the prefect sent to Cangzhou by His Majesty. I want to see Your Majesty! I want to see you!" See Your Majesty!"

Li Fu made another look, and a person on the side took out a pile of papers.

"Don't get me wrong, we won't kill people indiscriminately." Li Fu seemed very kind, "These are the [-] charges prepared by the Ministry of Criminal Justice for you, of which [-] are major crimes and [-] are capital crimes. People's palm prints, and here is the imperial seal of His Majesty the Emperor."

"Come on, drag it out and chop it up."

When Du Chong heard it, he struggled violently like a pig about to be slaughtered, and wailed heart-piercingly: "You can't kill me! You can't kill me! I am the magistrate ordered by His Majesty, Your Majesty! Your Majesty Your Majesty, save me..."

As soon as Du Chong was dragged to the door, Zhang Suo came.

Zhang Suo had just arrived at the gate of the magistrate's yamen, and was about to come to find Du Chong. He was surprised to see Du Chong dragged out of it.

"Who are you?"

"Imperial City Secretary Ban Zhi, you are here by His Majesty's order, is your Excellency?"

"My official is Zhang Suo, the counselor of the East Hebei Road Construction Department."

"It turned out to be Zhang Shen."

Zhang Suo was shocked and said, "This is..."

"By His Majesty's order, kill Du Chong and pass it on to the state capitals on the East Hebei Road."

Chapter 112

After Du Chong's official hat was taken off, he was still struggling violently.

The people who came from Li Gang's Zhifu (Zhizhisi Yamen) were all watching from the sidelines, their faces were both shocked and proud.

Du Chong was unwilling to kneel, he shouted loudly: "I want to see Your Majesty! You have no right to kill me! I want to see Your Majesty..."

A secretary from the imperial city behind kicked Du Chong's hind legs, and Du Chong knelt on the ground.

A dying person struggles with great strength.

Du Chong was forcibly detained by two imperial city officials.

Li Fu punched Du Chong in the face, and Du Chong was stunned.

A person next to him drew a knife, and another person read out Du Chong's evidence, and finally said in a sonorous and forceful voice: "Let's be executed!"

As soon as the words fell, the long knife swung down fiercely.

With a click, Du Chong's fat head twirled in the air before rolling to the ground.

A large amount of blood gushed out from his neck, staining the bluestone ground red.

Du Chong's eyes were still wide open, his mouth was split open, and his expression was ferocious.

The Imperial City Secretary raised his head and was about to run towards the gate of the city.

Soon the news of Du Chong's beheading began to spread in Cangzhou. First, the residence newspaper posted a notice, and then his head was hung on the top of the city to show the public.

When the news was rumored to rule the mansion, Li Gang was a little surprised when he heard that Du Chong was beheaded, and then said to the others: "Your Majesty solved the problem for me."

Although Li Gang is an envoy, he really has no right to kill the prefect of Cangzhou.

If he really killed someone, there must be a lot of people in the court to impeach him, even including Yushitai and various supervisory censors, they will never let him go.

Even the logistics officials behind him may have opinions on him, which will affect the grain distribution.

In the Song Dynasty, it was not difficult to kill generals like Li Gang.

For example, in history, Zhang Jun killed Qu Duan.

But don't even think about killing civil servants.

Therefore, Zhao Ning sent someone to do it himself, and the killing was clean and neat.

This saved Li Gang a lot of trouble.

Li Gang immediately felt that Zhao Guan's family was an assist from God.

Not only was Du Chong killed, but his head was also circulated in various state capitals on East Hebei Road.

Tai student Wang Ke set up a "newspaper office" in Cangzhou to announce Du Chong's crimes.

For a time, everyone in the Cangzhou area cheered, and they all shouted for the sage of Zhao Guanjia.

As for the new prefect of Cangzhou, he has already taken office.

On September [-]th, Wanyan Zonghan's letter reached Hejian Mansion.

Wanyan Zongfu, Deputy Marshal of the Jin Army's Right Route Army, received the letter and he finished reading it.

Wanyan Zongfu said: "This letter was written to me by the marshal. The marshal asked us to adopt a strategy of wooing Song Dynasty officials, and there are already Song Dynasty officials who intend to surrender."

Liu Yanzong, the commander of the Han Army of the Right Route Army, said: "Deputy Marshal, is there a name for surrender?"

Marshal Zuo Jianjun Wan Yanchang said: "Deputy Marshal, I do have a letter here, which was written to me by an official of the Song Dynasty, wanting to surrender."

"Who?"

"What's your name... Du Chong, the prefect of Cangzhou."

Wanyan Zongfu looked surprised, and he laughed: "The Marshal's letter mentioned Du Chong, the prefect of Cangzhou, and he also contacted Shi Liai."

Liu Yanzong said: "I heard that when Li Gang arrived in Cangzhou, the morale of the Song army in Cangzhou was greatly boosted. If Du Chong can surrender to us, we can easily take Cangzhou."

"Wan Yanchang, quickly and secretly contact this Du Chong, and agree with him on the time of Kaesong's surrender, and we will send a large army to meet him."

"Yes!"

In the orthodox history, when Du Chong was in Cangzhou, he had not yet contacted the Jin army to surrender.

He surrendered during the Southern Song Dynasty.

He was collecting money everywhere in Cangzhou, and planned to abandon the city and flee in September this year. He went all the way south, but Li Gang suddenly arrived in Cangzhou.

As soon as Li Gang arrived, Du Chong was so frightened that the egg almost exploded on the spot.

This means that Du Chong himself will be involved in an anti-gold tide. It is absolutely impossible for a person like Du Chong to use his life to protect something.

Not only would he not, he also took advantage of the opportunity during the chaotic period and then slipped away.

This kind of person is a blood-sucking worm that lives on the heads of the common people.

Li Gang is a staunch advocate of the war. As soon as Li Gang arrived in Cangzhou, the sentiment of the people in Cangzhou was high.

The news spread to East Jingdong Road (Shandong Province), where the rebels were furious when they heard that Li Gang had arrived at the front.

Li Gang seems to have become the backbone with his past prestige.

At this time, it was impossible for Du Chong to escape. He had only one way, which was to find a way to surrender to the Jin army.

Therefore, he first wrote to Shi Liai.

Then he hurriedly entrusted someone to go to Hejian Mansion to bribe the officials of the Kingdom of Jin, and contacted Wan Yanchang.

On September 22, the person Wan Yanchang sent to Cangzhou to secretly contact Du Chong slipped back to Hejian Mansion in despair.

Wan Yanchang was taken aback: "What! Du Chong was killed!"

"Yes, and Du Chong's head was circulated in the state capitals on East Hebei Road."

He immediately informed Wanyan Zongfu of the news.

Wan Yanchang said: "The Song Army's main battle spirit is high, Marshal, we can't wait any longer, let's send troops!"

Liu Yanzong said: "All the food and grass have not yet arrived, so we can't rush to send troops. Du Chong is dead, so there may not be no other officials who want to surrender to us. Don't be in a hurry. If you can find other officials, you will get twice the result with half the effort."

Wan Yanchang said: "The Song army is nothing more than a rotten tree, we don't need to be afraid at all."

"If Li Gang is not around, we can naturally send troops immediately, but Li Gang is in Cangzhou at this time, it is absolutely impossible to underestimate this person. This person acts vigorously and resolutely, and everything is arranged properly. Marshal Zongwang suffered a big loss in his hands back then. .”

What he was talking about was that when the Jin army arrived in Tokyo for the first time last year, Li Gang organized the whole city to fight against the Jin.

For city defense arrangements, personnel scheduling, military training, military discipline, etc. are all handled in an orderly manner.

Liu Yanzong added: "Marshal, our task this time is to take down all the areas of Hebei East Road and Jingdong East Road. We need to accumulate strength and wait for it. There is no need to rush."

Wanyan Zongfu pondered for a moment and said: "Liu Pushe is right, where can we find someone who is willing to surrender to us?"

"Marshal, according to the information, Zongze sits on the front line of Daming Mansion and Cizhou, and establishes camps in Yizhou and Zhaozhou, especially Yizhou, which is located in the southwest of us. It is formed by Yongjing Military Prefecture in the south and Cangzhou in the east. An east-west line of defense."

"Yongjing Military Prefecture is also under Li Gang's jurisdiction. If we find a breakthrough in Yongjing Military Prefecture and attack Yongjing Military Prefecture first, we can surround Cangzhou on both sides and divide our troops to advance, so that Li Gang cannot look at each other."

Wan Yanchang said: "Zongze built camps in Yizhou and Shenzhou, don't Liu Pushe know about these military reports?"

"Of course I know, but these camps can only be used to defend the city. Zongze sits in the Daming Mansion in the south, and it is even more difficult to support Cangzhou."

"What's more, if Zongze's army wants to support Cangzhou, Zongbi's army in the middle can directly govern Luozhou, and the soldiers will point directly at the Daming Mansion, hanging a sharp sword in the center of the Song army's defense line."

Chapter 113 Meeting Yue Fei of the Golden Army

Wan Yanchang said: "If the Wushu army attacked Luozhou and took the Daming Mansion, wouldn't our credit be given to Wushu for nothing?"

Wanyan Zongfu also looked at Liu Yanzong, as if he was also asking this question.

Obviously, he was also unwilling to use his own strength to attract the main force of the Song Army, because Wanyan Wushu was cheaper.

Liu Yanzong said: "No, Wushu will not take the name. Once Cangzhou is besieged by us, if Zongze dares to rescue Cangzhou, the Daming Mansion will be empty. After Wushu goes to Luozhou, he can go directly south, cross the Yellow River and lock up Bianjing. "

Seeing that Yan Zongfu was worried, Liu Yanzong continued: "Deputy Marshal don't have to worry. The Wushu army is bloodthirsty and will be stubbornly resisted by the Song Army. But you, Deputy Marshal, have a kind heart, and you can beat the Song Army hard while fighting in Hebei and Jingdong." The land is gentle, to win people's hearts, and those who win people's hearts will gain great power."

Wanyan Zongfu laughed loudly: "Well said!"

In the court of the Kingdom of Jin, there are two famous generals with relatively benevolent methods.

One is the second prince Wanyan Zongwang, known as the Bodhisattva Prince, who captured Ma Kuo last year, hoping to recruit Ma Kuo, but Ma Kuo refused, so he released Ma Kuo.

The first time he went south to attack the Song Dynasty, he took another traitor of the Song Dynasty, Guo Yaoshi, and told Guo Yaoshi many times that without his order, he was not allowed to kill people on the way south.

This is Wanyan Zongwang.

In the orthodox history, why did Wanyan Jurchen not take over and unify the Central Plains like Jianzhou Jurchen did?

In fact, the reason may be very simple: because Wanyan Zongwang died early.

The top leaders of Jin State adopted a bloody policy of massacre against Song Dynasty, but lacked tenderness.

The Jianzhou Jurchen also killed many people, but at the same time, they recruited gentry, landlords, and scholars from all over the country. This was a policy left by Huang Taiji when he was in power, and it was well inherited.

It can be said that Huang Taiji was the founder of the Tartar Qing Dynasty. Without Huang Taiji, the Tartar Qing Dynasty was just a backward khanate.

It was Huang Taiji who successfully transformed the Qing Dynasty from a khanate into an empire.

If Wanyan Zongwang is in power, he must be another Huang Taiji, which will greatly ease the conflict between Jurchen and the Han people, thus laying the foundation for Jurchen to plot the world.
