Chapter 1612: The First Battle of the East China Sea Fleet
Akula and the others couldn't stand up anymore, and the jailers went in and pinched them out. After they got out, they were sent directly to the prison van, all the way from the sky prison to Caishikou. The Caishikou side was also ready, and the execution department came over. The master had already sharpened his knife, and the representative of the Sanfa Division read out the sins of Akula and others on the spot.
Then it was pronounced that Akula and others were all executed Ling Chi to comfort those people who unfortunately died in Luzon. In the spirit of heaven, although Akula and the others could not understand Chinese, they also knew that this was definitely not a good thing. Fearing that it was going to be over, they all woke up from the grief of losing their family and shouted for mercy.
It's a pity that except for Wang Chengen and a few missionaries who came to hear the news, none of the people present could understand what they said, and even if they understood, the officials of the Sanfa Department would not care. The executioners walked up to Akula and the others, took off their clothes, wrapped their bodies tightly with fishing nets, and fed them a mouthful of ginseng soup to hang their lives. This work would take several days , can't let them die too fast.
When the first cut was made, Akula and others cried out in pain, and the executioner dropped their two eyelids immediately, making them unable to close their eyes, and could only watch helplessly as they were sliced into pieces. The crowd of onlookers cheered immediately, the people in the capital hadn't forgotten the tragedy when the city was besieged by slaves, and they didn't have the slightest sympathy for the foreign race who dared to kill the people of Ming Dynasty.
Of course, it is not that there are those who are stupid in reading and reading, shaking their heads and discussing in the crowd, "Looking at the late birth, these people leave the country and go to the country, abandoning the land of their ancestors to go to a foreign country, even if they die, they deserve it."
"Nonsense! When did the Xuanwei Department of the Old Port become a foreign country? That is the homeland of my Ming Dynasty. As early as the time of Chengzu, it belonged to my Ming Dynasty! Who are you? How dare you say such a thing? Do you want to give the territory of my Ming Dynasty to a foreign country?" Someone immediately retorted that this allusion has been widely circulated in Ming Dynasty since Zheng Zhilong took back the Xuanwei Division of the Old Port, and everyone believed that it was the Sibanians who occupied Daming land. "What? Going to other places means abandoning the land of our ancestors? According to you, I can't open up the territory in Ming Dynasty?" There were also those relatives who were sent to the senior officials and the noble children of Jiugang who expressed their dissatisfaction. The clichéd rhetoric that a relative has built a career overseas so they can get back to their old home is not cool.
"The imperial court is willing to avenge my Ming Dynasty. It is because His Majesty treats the people kindly. You are a scholar who doesn't want to be loyal to the country, but talks nonsense here. I think you are stupid in studying. If you are lucky in the future, you will be sent to the imperial examination. If you are an official overseas, don’t ask your majesty to save you if you are in trouble!" With the colonization of Old Port, Dayuan and other places, more and more people from Daming are going overseas, and everyone is very dissatisfied with his words.
At that moment, the nonchalant scholar was attacked by the people around him, and he was ashamed of what he said, and he didn't dare to refute at all, so he could only cover his face and escape in despair.
The execution lasted for three consecutive days. After every ten cuts, he took a rest, gave Akula and others a sip of ginseng soup to hang himself, and then continued to cut. A total of 3,357 cuts were made in three days. , these executioners finally lost their lives and got the retribution they deserved, and Wang Chengen returned to the palace to return to his life.
After returning to the palace, Wang Chengen saw Yu Zigao talking to Shen Long in the study. They were looking at the chart on the wall and gesticulating, as if they were going to attack there again. "Cheng En came just in time. Now that General Yu has trained my Daming's East China Sea Fleet, it's time to completely solve the problem of establishing slaves! What's the latest news from your East Factory?" Shen Long asked.
"Report to Your Majesty, as soon as the slaves came back, they looked through the documents, and happened to see some news about the establishment of slaves." After Wang Chengen came back, he went to Caishikou to be executed during the day, and had to read the latest intelligence collection when he returned to Dongchang at night. It was not in vain; since Shen Long reorganized the East Factory and Jinyiwei, their work efficiency has been greatly improved.
With the money obtained from ransacking the house, and the contacts of the eight Shanxi merchants such as Fan Yongdou and Wang Dengku,
Jinyiwei and Dongchang are increasingly infiltrating Liaodong. In turn, Jiannu's intelligence network within Daming has received a devastating blow. Now Daming is very clear about Jiannu's intelligence, but Jiannu knows almost nothing about Daming. .
After going through the information in his mind for a while, Wang Chengen replied in detail, "Now Mao Shuai, General Zu and others are attacking from both sides, and they are getting closer to Shenyang; on the other hand, within Jiannu, the disputes among the major slave chiefs are over. , Mang Gurtai, the slave chieftain, was the weakest, and was killed by Dorgon and the Duoduo brothers. Dorgon also wanted to take Hong Tai's successful revenge and ascended to the Khan throne, but it was a pity that he was defeated by Daishan and Amin. In a cloud, the two brothers died and the other was injured."
"However, Daishan and Amin didn't fare well. Dorgon fought back when he was dying, and most of their tribes were also injured; after fighting each other in the past few years, Jiannu's strength has been greatly damaged, and it is no longer 10% of what it was in its heyday. !"
Well, it seems that the knife I cut Huang Taiji back then played a big role, otherwise Mang Gurtai and the others wouldn't have been fighting among themselves for so long, and it would be much better to let them kill their own people than Daming.
"Besides, since Fan Yongdou and others were taken down, the supply of grain, ironware, and gunpowder on Jiannu's side has all been cut off. Now there is a shortage of food everywhere in Liaodong, and Doumi has risen to as much as thirty taels. I’m too hungry to ride a horse!” Wang Chengen told the situation again.
"From this point of view, the conditions for regaining Liaodong are now met. I plan to send troops to the north to completely wipe out Jiannu!" While your illness is killing you, since you are already dying, let's send you to the west as soon as possible!
"Your Majesty, I would like to command the East China Sea Fleet to go north to sweep away the slaves!" Yu Zigao immediately knelt down and begged for a fight. Zheng Zhilong would be able to become a Marquis after five years in the Xuanwei Department of Jiugang. Given the opportunity to play, how could Yu Zigao miss it. "Okay, General Yu is needed for this battle!" Shen Long readily agreed, "Decree that Sun Chengzong of Liaodong and Mao Wenlong of Dongjiang should send troops at the same time, and then General Yu will carry 20,000 elite troops from the capital camp to go north, cutting off the way for Jiannu to retreat. , I want to completely eliminate Jiannu in one battle! Avenge my Ming people!"
"The humble minister leads the decree!" Yu Zigao was very excited. This is a great achievement to eliminate Jiannu. If Jiannu can be completely pacified, even if he can't get the Marquis, then the Earl must be stable, right? This is an honor that even his father Yu Dayou did not have.
