3-39 Liberation

3-39 Liberation

Song Shou, the governor of Shandong, was the general in charge of the Zhenghong Banner. Because of his outstanding military exploits when conquering Jinan, Huang Taiji arranged him to be the first prefect of Jinan. Later, due to the needs of the southern expedition, Shandong was divided from Zhili.

Song Shou also rose to become the governor of Shandong. He was tall and fat and had two hobbies, one was killing people and the other was womanizing. If he didn't kill people every day, he would be in a bad mood, so he would arrest civilians indiscriminately every day, and torture and kill them if he was accused of anything.

; Every night it doesn’t take many women to make my whole body feel uncomfortable,

When I was in the army, I even used mares to vent my sexual desires, so the women in Jinan Prefecture did not dare to go out on weekdays. If the governor took a fancy to him, they would be snatched into the mansion and humiliated to death. It is wrong for the Qing Dynasty to use such a cruel person as the governor of Shandong.

The imperial court deliberately arranged the people's customs in Shandong to be fierce, and only a reign of terror could deter these mobs.

Since the army's southern expedition, Song Shou has been extremely busy, raising food for civilians, transporting military supplies, and suppressing anti-Qing thugs. These complicated things have made him exhausted. He has not even played his favorite scalping game for several days. The front is

The war situation was not going well. Songshou, who had been a general, knew that Tai'an was in danger and the war was about to reach Jinan. He could not eat well and sleep well. He put his sword under his pillow nervously, fearing that one day the battle would break out.

The army is coming.

Someone who was also feeling uneasy was Sun Zhixie, the prefect of Jinan. Speaking of this man, he was the famous advocate of the hair-cutting order.

Sun Zhixian, a native of Zichuan, Shandong, was born as a Jinshi in the Ming Dynasty and became a minister. After the Qing army entered the pass, he bowed down and begged for surrender. Huang Taiji won people's hearts and accepted him as the minister of the Ministry of Rites. At that time, because the world was uncertain,

The surrendered ministers of the Ming Dynasty were allowed to still serve in the Ming Dynasty when they went to court, but the Manchu and Han ministers each stood in one class.

Sun Zhixian was eager to be favored and was determined to "show his affinity with others". One day when he went to court, he looked completely new. Not only did he shave his hair, grow braids, but also wore the clothes of Manchu officials. When the ministers entered the court,

When he was on duty, he walked into the ranks of the Manchu ministers with a carefree attitude. The Manchu ministers all considered themselves superior to others, so how could they tolerate their Han minister Sun Zhixian being in the same class with them? They all pushed and pushed him out.

Outside the class, when the Han officials saw this, many people hid their faces and snickered. Sun Zhixian was asking for trouble and walked back to the Han class angrily. The Han officials hated him for being too flattering and seeking favors, so they stayed close to each other and refused to let him go.

Enter class.

Sun Zhixian, who was wandering between the two squads, was unable to advance or retreat, and was in a state of panic. In anger, he sent a memorial to the ancestor of the Qing Dynasty. The memorial said: "Your Majesty has pacified China and made everything new, but the system of clothes, hats, and hair only exists in the Han Dynasty."

"Jiu, this is Your Majesty's obedience to the Han Dynasty, not the Han Dynasty's obedience to Your Majesty. It is difficult to pacify or surrender."

Huang Taiji had this intention, and he followed Sun Zhixian's advice and issued the order to shave his hair. The hair shaving seriously hurt the feelings of the Han people, and countless people died because of it. As long as the Han people who still had a trace of conscience hated this shameless villain,

It was so deep that the Qing court didn't like this villain, so they found an excuse to remove him from his duties as a second-rank minister and moved him to Jinan as a fourth-rank magistrate. Magistrate Sun, who was eager to return to the court, wanted to show his loyalty and ability.

, carried out many horrific policies in Jinan, such as sending spies to search for people with anti-Qing remarks in teahouses and restaurants, deliberately removing anti-Qing words from various social publications, and investigating and handling several major cases within two years of taking office.

Thousands of heads have been chopped off. If Song Shou's name can stop a child from crying at night, then Magistrate Sun's name can make an adult mute.

Sun Zhixian lived in a Manchu settlement. He always deliberately imitated the behavior of the Manchus. He even ordered his children to learn Manchu and adopt Manchu living habits. Everything was closer to his master. The war in the south was not going well.

Everyone was anxious to get angry. In order to collect military rations, he scraped off three layers of land in Jinan Prefecture, but it was still not enough for the frontline military supplies. Now he could only count on Prince Rui's wisdom and prowess to get supplies to the south of the Yangtze River.

Magistrate Sun was worried about the battle situation on the front line and about the problem of military food and strong men. He had been suffering from insomnia for several days. He was tossing and turning in the early hours of this morning when suddenly a burst of singing came to his ears.

....." Stop it! Isn't this "Manjianghong" which ranked highly among the "News" promulgated by the Qing Dynasty? Sun Zhixian, who was the editor-in-chief of "News", was keenly aware of the treasonous anti-Qing rhetoric. Although

The singing was blurry, but he could still hear it.

"Rebellion! Rebel!" Sun Zhixian got up in his clothes and was about to mobilize manpower to suppress it. A family member stumbled in and shouted: "Sir! It's not good!"

Sun Zhixian said angrily: "How do I teach you normally? You can't call me master but master. If you can't learn this rule, how can you enter the flag?"

The family had no choice but to imitate the manner of the Manchus, waved their horseshoe sleeves and bowed down, saying: "Master, I just saw a large group of Ming army cavalry entering the city. There are tens of thousands of horses."

"What!" Sun Zhixian was shocked. How did he say this? Why did he say it so quickly? Could it be that the Qing Dynasty was defeated so quickly? Did Jinan fall so quickly? He hurried out of the yard and saw Governor Songshou.

Wearing armor with a red flag, they were climbing up the high wall of the inner city with their coats of clothing, with bows and arrows and sabers hanging on their waists.

The governor was about to put on his armor and go into battle. It seemed that the situation was over. Sun Zhixian hurriedly ran back to the house and shouted to his family: "Quick, take off your clothes..."

After ten years of extravagance and debauchery, the Manchu heroes in the inner city of Jinan were already a little weak when they picked up swords, guns, bows and arrows again. There was more fat on their waists and hips, their eyes were not so sharp, and they no longer had the strength to draw their bows. Only the Governor

The master and his coats still have some fighting ability. They climbed up the high wall and kept shooting arrows to stop the Ming troops who appeared out of thin air.

Most of the Manchus lying on the high wall were frightened. Not only were the Ming troops below with bright armor and dazzling swords and guns, but more importantly, all the people of Jinan were mobilized. On the nearby roofs, trees

On the street, the streets and alleys were full of civilians wielding kitchen knives and wooden sticks. There was a lack of weapons. The kitchen knives could only be held by men with stronger combat capabilities. The remaining people held dismantled table legs, rolling pins, and bamboo poles for drying clothes.

There were even bricks and tiles, and the Manchu people fell into the ocean of people's war.

Because the formation was too dense, many people were injured by arrows. Liu Ziguang was furious and ordered the steam cannons to go into battle. Two cannons that had been assembled and started to fire before entering the city were dragged over. The dark barrels pointed directly at the inner city.

At the gate, the ballistae and archers shot fiercely to knock down the Manchu people. Then the cannon calmly approached and fired under the spotlight. A solid iron ball hit the gate at a speed invisible to the naked eye. It was huge.

The force smashed the door made of thick wooden boards to pieces, and even the door shaft was broken. After the door collapsed, a large group of Eight Banners soldiers were revealed behind, who were preparing to resist. The soldiers with long guns did not wait for the cavalry to rush in. What they waited for was

The roaring hot caltrops and the high muzzle velocity of the ammunition fired at close range instantly reduced the only group of capable soldiers to a bloody sieve.

Liu Ziguang pointed his hand: "Come in and kill!" A large group of cavalry rushed into the inner city and massacred. For a time, blood flowed into rivers and corpses were everywhere. The Eight Banners men who massacred the Han people finally got a taste of their karma. The people of Jinan also rushed in.

In the inner city, you can take revenge.

The death battalion was the first team to rush in. They hacked to death all the armed people along the way, but did not hesitate to fight. They went straight to the treasury and handed over the task of looting the private property of the Manchus to the follow-up troops. This choice was undoubtedly

Correct, there was a large amount of gold, silver and copper coins collected in the treasury, as well as some grain that had not been transported away. The army immediately sealed the warehouse and did not allow anyone to approach, waiting for General Liu to inspect it before making a decision.

There were about six to seven thousand banner people living in the inner city. The Manchus, who were usually domineering and bullying men and women, were snatched from their homes by the wolf-like "Ming Army" and handed over to the Han people to deal with as they pleased.

The wealth accumulated after entering the customs was looted. The gold, silver, fine silks and satins were taken away by the soldiers, and the bedding, clothes, rice, flour, food, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea were looted by the poor Han people.

The Han people grabbed many weapons discarded by the Manchus and launched a genocide. A large number of Manchu men were taken to the river and beheaded, turning a clear river into a river of blood.

Seeing this tragic scene, Liu Ziguang couldn't help but frowned. The source of the river was the Baotu Spring, a wonder in Jinan. It was unbearable that the beautiful scenery was so ruined. He waved his hand: "No one is allowed by the river.

Kill!" As soon as the general order was sent out, a general from the Tiger Wing Battalion of the Iron Guard hurried over and reported: "General, something happened, a few brothers started a quarrel with the people."

Liu Ziguang hurriedly led a group of soldiers and the Iron Guard law enforcement team to watch. It turned out that a few soldiers from the Tiger Wing Battalion protected several Manchu women and children from the people of Jinan. However, one of the women who was protected

A beautiful woman was Governor Song Shou's confidant. She was vicious and cruel and beat to death more than a dozen Chinese women whom Song Shou had kidnapped. She also used her power to run rampant outside and plundered many properties and fields. Now her family members

He came to take revenge, but was stopped by the Bodhisattva-hearted Iron Guards. There was a verbal conflict, and the Iron Guards even injured several civilians.

Liu Ziguang took a closer look and found that the soldier who was leading the trouble was the squad leader who had talked back to him during the collective stick incident that day. He didn't expect that he still had such love. It was really rare. At this moment, the squad leader was holding a Manchu child in his arms.

Inside, he stood in front of the women, blocking a group of murderous mobs. His soldiers also protected the women, pointing at the angry people and yelling: "These women are what the military master wants, and you are not allowed to hurt them."

."

Bah, it turned out to be a robbery of women. It was really useless. Liu Ziguang said angrily: "The army loves the people and the people support the army. How can you guys do this? How dare you hurt ordinary people!"

Seeing that Liu Ziguang was an official, the common people who had a bloody feud hurriedly knelt down and accused Xi Fujin of his crimes. Hearing that he was furious, these vicious women deserved to be torn into pieces.

"You! Take your men and get out of here, don't hinder the people's revenge." Liu Ziguang ordered the squad leader.

"General, I don't accept it. How can you listen to one side of the story? Murder and arson are what Tatar men do. What does it have to do with these women and children? If these innocent people are to be handed over to the mob for execution, the villain would rather die than

From!" the team leader said plausibly. He seemed to have read several books and had unique views on society and life.

"Why are you so dissatisfied?" Liu Ziguang became angry. If he wanted to steal a beautiful woman, he just said so, and yet he behaved in such a high-sounding way. Isn't it disgusting? A soldier with such a strong personality is really bad.

"You are already disobeying military orders. I will give you one last chance to let go of these Manchus and apologize to the people, otherwise..." Liu Ziguang said coldly.

The soldiers of the military discipline team raised the water and fire sticks, and the soldiers pressed their right hands on the handles of the swords. Dozens of pairs of eyes stared hard at the disobedient Tiger Wing Battalion soldiers, and the atmosphere became grim.

The few soldiers who were protecting the Manchu women looked at each other, put away their knives and stood aside dejectedly. Only the squad leader was left, still guarding the Manchu women, holding the child in his arms.

The demeanor of an international humanitarian warrior is upright and awe-inspiring.

"You are still not human! Women and children are not spared. I am not convinced, and neither are the military law enforcement officials! Oops!" The squad leader who was delivering a touching speech suddenly threw away the little boy in his arms, with a sharp knife stuck in his arm.

dagger.

The Manchu child who did not understand Chinese used the only Chinese vocabulary he knew to shout at the team leader: "Han dog." Then he hid in his mother's arms, because the team leader had strangled him in excitement just now.

So I pulled out my pocket knife and gave it to him.

The squad leader covered his arms and looked at the seven or eight-year-old child in shock. He did not expect that such a young child could be so vicious. The beautiful bannerwoman hugged the child and patted it for a while, as if the child was being beaten by a child.

The captain looked as if he was dirty, and then looked with contempt at the shameless Ming army who was greedy for his own beauty. The little boy was so stupid that he didn't know that the world had been turned upside down. He spat at everyone arrogantly, and kept cursing in his little mouth: "Han

Dog, Han dog.”
