Worried that his words were unconvincing, he took a breath and continued to confess, "When we were smuggling iron, people from the Liao Kingdom kept coming to contact us, saying they wanted to buy gunpowder or thunder bombs, and offered ten ounces of money for each.
The price of a kilogram of gunpowder or fire thunder was astronomical. Even though the brothers in the church used all their strength, they couldn't get a few taels of gunpowder. As for the fire thunder bomb, they couldn't even get a single one. When Wang Zhenfu surrendered,
In one fell swoop, we brought thousands of kilograms of gunpowder and hundreds of fire and thunder bombs to the Liao Kingdom!"
"The thief deserves to die!"
"Damn it, old dog Wang! Aren't you afraid that your ancestors will not live in peace in their graves?!"
…
In the Chinese military tent, curses erupted one after another. Although Han Qing always emphasized military discipline, at this moment, Wu You and others could not suppress the anger in their hearts.
You must know that the Song Dynasty was seriously short of war horses and was always at a disadvantage in fighting the Liao army. It was not until Han Qing donated gunpowder and thunder bombs to the court the year before last that the disadvantage was somewhat reversed.
For the sake of glory and wealth, Wang Jizhong dedicated a large amount of gunpowder and fire bombs to the Liao Kingdom, which was equivalent to suppressing the disadvantage that Han Qing had finally regained in helping the Song Dynasty. Wu You and others, who were familiar with military affairs,
, how not to be filled with righteous indignation?!
"Everyone, please be patient. It's just a few thousand kilograms of gunpowder. It won't be used many times before it's all gone!" Han Qing glanced at everyone, raised his hands, and pressed them down gently. "What's more, the outcome of the war will be determined by it.
, after all, they are human beings, not weapons!”
"What Ti Xing said is that we realized we were wrong!" Wu You and others quickly realized their gaffe, and they all stood in awe and apologized, and then closed their mouths.
However, everyone's eyes were still filled with anger. If they could see Wang Jizhong's face at this moment, they would probably bite him into pieces even if they bit him with their mouths.
Han Qing himself felt very uncomfortable. However, when he thought about the historical events he had seen and experienced in his previous life, he felt calm.
There have been barriers to betrayal of the country since ancient times!
No matter how much the Maitreya Sect tried to win over and corrupt, most of them were low-level or grassroots officials, and there were only a few officials above the sixth rank. The damage to the Song Dynasty was very limited. If it didn't last for ten or eight years, it wouldn't be enough to break the muscles.
The level of bones.
On the other hand, Wang Jizhong, with his own efforts, tore a gap in the first line of defense in the north that was carefully constructed by the Song Dynasty. He randomly searched and picked up and gave the Song Dynasty's national weapon to the Liao Dynasty.
Big pile.
And in the history of another time and space, how many traitors did they betray China for personal glory and wealth? How many people were not like Wang Jizhong who once held high positions?
It's just that "Wang Jizhongs" have many filial sons and virtuous grandchildren, and they always try their best to find various reasons for their actions, compile some love stories that seem to be unforgettable but actually make no sense, and just forcefully paint them over!
The foolish behavior of ordinary people was infinitely magnified by the latter's filial sons and grandsons, and became the bad character of the entire country and nation. To cover up the latter's shamelessness!
Thinking of this section, Han Qing raised her hand and patted the table, "Ma Qiushi, do you want to live?"
When Ma Qiushi heard this, he immediately fell to the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "I'm going to be merciful by punishing you. I'm going astray. I'm really going astray! If I can spare my life by punishing you, I'm willing to be a bull or a horse and repay you in my lifetime."
You old man!"
"It is already a capital crime for you to organize people to smuggle iron weapons to the Liao Kingdom!" Han Qing sighed and shook his head slightly. "It is an unforgivable crime to be ordered by the Southern Pingren Division of the Liao Kingdom to deliver news and bribe officials. In addition, gathering a crowd to attack the water village is even more unforgivable.
, to open a way for the Liao army, if the imperial court does not punish your three tribes, it will be an act of mercy outside the law, how can I spare you?"
"I'll have mercy on you, I'll have mercy on you!" Ma Qiushi was frightened again. She lay on the ground and begged, "You just promised that as long as my confession is more useful than Majuleg's, you will spare me."
I will not die! I am willing to work hard for Ti Xing. I will do whatever Ti Xing asks me to do. I just ask Ti Xing to let me go this time!"
"It's difficult!" Han Qing thought for a while and responded truthfully, "Unless you can achieve extraordinary feats, then I can plead with the officials on your behalf and let your merits and demerits be balanced."
"I'm willing to make meritorious deeds, and I'm willing to atone for my sins. Please give me a chance to be punished, and give me a chance!" Ma Qiushi ignored everything else as long as she could survive. She lay on the ground and continued to kowtow.
Han Qing thought for a while, then slowly raised a finger, "First of all, write down the names and specific positions of the Song Dynasty officials who you know were bribed by the Liao Kingdom. As for the officials who were bribed by your Maitreya Cult,
Yes, write it down too and list it on another piece of paper!"
"I'm willing, I can write now. Please ask Ti Xing to lend me some pen and ink!" Ma Qiushi raised her bruised head and agreed without any words.
"Don't worry, I will give you a tent later and let you go in and write slowly!" Han Qing shook his head gently, and then raised a second finger, "Second, put the places north and south of the Yellow River, Maitreya
The location of each branch of the sect, the names and addresses of the members above the incense master should be written to Ben Tixing. Then, lead the way for my people to clean up the big and small Maitreya sect branches on Jingdong East Road first!"
"Ti Xing has mercy -" Ma Qiushi trembled and begged for help crying, "Most of them have gone astray, just like the little one. The little one is willing to lead the way. Please give Ti Xing a chance to let the little one go astray."
persuade them to surrender!"
"You have a clear conscience!" Unexpectedly, Ma Qiushi would plead for others. Han Qing was stunned and praised him smoothly.
"Young man, you can't drag them into the religion first, and then lead the officers and soldiers to kill them. If you do that, you don't deserve to be a human being, you don't deserve to be a human being anymore!" Ma Qiushi cried while crying.
Explanation. Tears made the dirty face black and white.
After hearing this, Han Qing's impression of him changed greatly. She smiled and nodded lightly, "Well, in that case, I will give you the opportunity to persuade the Maitreya Sect to surrender south of the Yellow River. As for those north of the Yellow River,
I can't control it for the time being, so you can write to them and ask them to disperse early and go home while the officers and soldiers are temporarily unavailable for conquest."
"Thank you for mentioning the sentence!" Ma Qiushi was overjoyed. She lay down and saluted Han Qingxing.
"Don't thank me in a hurry. You still have to say whether they will listen to you or not!" Han Qing glanced at him and waved his hand gently, "Forget it, I won't say it one by one. Wait a moment.
I’ll give you a list of things you can do to atone for your sins, and you should follow them. The more you can do, the easier it will be for me to intercede on your behalf.”
"Thank you so much for the punishment and reincarnation!" Ma Qiushi is worthy of being a disciple of Buddhism. He even sings and praises his virtues in a unique way!
Han Qing was a grassroots person in his previous life, and he always had a bit of tolerance and sympathy for little people. After thinking about it, he asked with some probing, "Have you met the leader of the Maitreya Sect? Do you know his real name? If
If you can help me dig him out, the credit will be enough to offset all your crimes."
He did not ask, but as soon as he asked, Ma Qiushi burst into tears again, "I don't know anything about the punishment. This young Buddha is just a tablet! In the religion, there are not many places where you can have the final say. Beheading
But the blame was all shouldered by the younger one. The younger one had been a Buddhist disciple for seven years. Not to mention meeting the leader of the sect, even his instructions had to be relayed by the dharma king of the sect. As for his name, it is said that his surname is Li
, famous all over the world. It’s false as soon as you hear it, even if you confess even small things, even the punishment will be of no use!”
