As the day dawned, on April 13, the fifth year of Chongzhen reign in the Ming Dynasty, the Jinzhou Army killed prisoners for food in Wujiazhuangzi, Pingdu County, Laizhou Prefecture. That night, fifty-six prisoners were beheaded, their heads were cut off, their internal organs were taken out, and the cauldron was stuffed.
Boil it and feed it to the whole army.
The fifty-six prisoners were all guilty of heinous crimes, and it was not an exaggeration to cut them into pieces with a thousand swords. Although he killed the prisoners for food, Da Yong did not want to kill them indiscriminately. He ordered Guo Yi to interrogate all the prisoners, expose each other, and select the most evil ones.
Kill it.
There is still one day's food in the camp, but it will no longer be provided for the soldiers, but will be provided entirely to the "women" and children. This will ensure that they do not have to feed on human flesh before reaching Dengzhou Prefecture.
With Jinzhou veteran soldiers at the head and strict orders, the killing of human beings was quickly carried out throughout the army. There were very few complaints in the army, and riots occurred. Even if there were those who complained and were unwilling to obey, they could only do so in the face of the general trend.
Follow up.
People are doing it, and God is watching. As the sun shines, whether what the Jinzhou Army did is good or evil will be judged by future generations. Today, here and now, everything is just for food.[
The sky is big and the earth is big, not as big as the food in the belly. People regard food as their heaven. This is not a false statement. Moreover, since the founding of this dynasty, there has been no such thing as eating human flesh.
At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Huaiyou used human flesh to supply the army with military rations. At that time, it was said that meat was the first priority, with children as the priority, women as the second priority, and men as the third priority.
During the Chenghua period, Xiang Zhong pinged the refugees in Jingxiang. The army also ran out of food and killed tens of thousands of refugees until the chaos was over.
These two events are not secrets. Over the past two hundred years, there have been many records in literati's notes and many rumors among the people. How could the men in the army not know about them?
Today, as the state collapses, natural disasters continue, and people eat each other. In the first year of Chongzhen, there was a severe drought in Shaanxi. The land was thousands of miles away, and the people were hungry.
Eating. There are even tomb robbers who steal the rotten corpses of yin from the tombs and eat them!
In order to survive, human instinct forces them to do some beastly things, but should they be harshly criticized and scolded?
At the beginning, when local officials reported the words "people can eat each other", all the princes in the court would hide their faces and weep bitterly. However, after a few years, when the three words "people eat each other" were seen again, all the princes in the court would casually place them on their heads.
On the one hand, even the pain is saved.
If the world is like this, what can people do?
At that time, the princes were probably thinking more about how to keep the power in their hands and how to better drive their opponents out of the court. As for the humble people, they were left to fend for themselves. Confucianism has taught for thousands of years, and saints have great righteousness.
, I can only express regret, what else can I ask them to do? As long as everything does not happen to me, my heart will always be at ease. The tragedies in the world thousands of miles away are just a few sentences in the history books.
To the generals of Jinzhou, people cannibalize each other, but it seems far or near. Since the rebellion of the Donglu rebels, have there been too many tragedies of cannibalism in Liaodong? What have those Sichuan troops seen since they left Sichuan?
Have we seen less of them again? Have we seen less of those Changping children again? Have we seen less of those soldiers who were once members of the rebel army? Have we seen less of those soldiers who were horse thieves again?
In this world, no matter how soft your heart is, it will become hard. There is no way. If you don’t have a hard enough heart, how can you survive in this world! Everything is just to survive!
If you don't eat this meat, you won't be able to live. No matter how great your righteousness is, it's still not as good as a piece of cooked meat in front of you. Grit your teeth and close your eyes and swallow it. Didn't the general say that what he did today was an act of loyal ministers and good generals. It was for the emperor's plan.
, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, and for this tragic incident of cannibalism to never happen again, we can only fight to the death to follow him.
Even if the emperor blames you, even if God is angry, we are willing to share it with the general.
The Jinzhou Army is always together, advancing and retreating together!
Compared with his predecessors, Dayong's method of cannibalism in the army was much better. Historically, the army used cannibalism on a large scale. The method used was either to put the people to be slaughtered on two large vats and roast them over a fire;
The hands and feet are cut off, poured with hot water, and the bitter skin is brushed off with a bamboo broom; otherwise, the person is put into a bag and boiled alive in a huge pot. Men often have their legs cut off, and women have their breasts gouged out.
"It is so poisonous that it cannot be described in words.
Being cannibalized by the same kind is a painful thing for eternity. Killing alive is even more cruel. Despite all the last resort, Dayong always thought that there could be some "goodness" in this evil thing. Killing alive should not be avoided.
Jiang Maoran suffered in the city alive, but today, he can no longer do this. He must be killed and then steamed, so that he can feel better.
Do not kill women and children, do not kill the old and weak, do not kill innocent people, only kill those who have committed the most heinous crimes. This is Dayong's strict order to his subordinates.
Everyone has their limits, and cannibalism is the most despicable thing they have done in this era. How can we break through again? If you really want to do that, you can wipe your neck with a knife. If you can't see, your heart is clean, so why bother in this end of the world?
Struggling, trying to save the building from falling down with one person's strength.
There are more than a thousand prisoners, and even if everyone has blood on their hands, I am afraid that not all of them are extremely vicious. Although the culprits and evildoers can be killed, if you want to select the meat from the pot, you must give it to them.
They are killed one day at a time, and they don't have the chance to be eaten![
If someone eats it one day later, is this considered the goodness of human nature?
Who knows whether he is benevolent or kind by doing small good deeds and using great courage amid great evil, or whether he is a hypocrite and just showing off.
It is impossible to say that Dayong has the kindness of a woman, and it is impossible to say that his mother-in-law and mother are hypocritical. How to evaluate Dayong's actions today will have its own interpretation in the future.
When people are hungry, they have to eat. This is the law of nature, and no one can act against it!
Dayong doesn't have the spirit of a bastard, nor is he lucky enough. Since he came to this era, all he has with him along the way are corpses.
Iron and blood turned a gambler into a man-eating demon; iron and blood made a gambler who wanted to revitalize China no longer have any humanity.
In order to win, he can do whatever it takes. What else can he do? Can he conjure up thousands of stones of food with his bare hands? Can he sow beans into soldiers, call for wind and rain, and change history?
In this era when the building is about to collapse, what can Dayong do besides iron and blood? Recite poems and write poems, rise step by step, and be a peaceful minister? Study hard and make a blockbuster success on the way to the imperial examination, winning three yuan in a row, and be the one who supports the imperial line.
To be an important minister in the court? Or to pursue the struggle for orthodoxy, to instill in the world the scientific way of future generations, and to become another saint?
What others can do, he cannot do. He, because what this era needs is just a butcher who dares to strike with a sword!
But I don't know that the young emperor in the far north knows the pain in my heart, and knows that there is a minister who vows to protect him to the death and is suffering from human nature.
Emperor Zhuang Lie, but with me, Shi Dayong, I will not let you become a lonely soul on Meishan Mountain, let alone let this Ming Dynasty become the prey of Donglu!
Those who have filled their bellies, follow my footsteps and attack the front! (Start:)
