Chapter 333
A huge golden hall, in which civil and military officials and emperors sit high, is absolute silence.
A pair of eyes had different expressions, but either surprised or surprised, they all moved slowly with the four palace guards, the great Han generals, who entered the palace gate.
The four big Han generals, hey yo he yo, are carrying a shelf with a weapon on it.
Until the Han general placed the weapon rack in the hall, Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting on the Dragon Throne, looked at the eight-sided iron cone with a thick bowl and a thick bowl on the rack. twitched.
This iron cone is dark and unremarkable, and the surface of the bowl's thick cone handle is uneven, and at a glance, it can be seen that it is a shoddy thing. But on the head of the octagonal pyramid, the thick layer of dark red dirt, with the baleful aura, made people shudder.
For a while, the sound of inhaling cool air sounded one after another in the hall.
Emperor Chongzhen secretly put out a breath and suppressed the moving expression on his face. Slowly put down the memorial in his hand, covered it with both hands, and pressed it hard.
Then said, "The Governor of Suliao's memorials are all known to all the ministers. The good news should never be false." , To become an ancestor is the ambition to make the whole world at peace, He Qinghaiyan. However, after he ascended the throne, he realized that the country was difficult.
Manchu civil and military, he can hardly really believe any of them.
It's full of lies, and good news is often fabricated.
Only did he know that the emperor was called loner, not reserved.
Because of the fact that during the previous court meeting, there was a good news from Liaodong, he did not believe it. Especially after reading the detailed description in the memorial of Hong Chengchou's good news, I feel like I am reading a small book Romance, which is so ridiculous.
Someone who is far away from Hegemon-King Chu, he simmered the Tatar executives with a single-handedly. It was the Ming Army who triumphed, beheading 20,000 levels and capturing more than 10,000.
This is clearly a joke!
You bully!
Hong Chengchou did not make any modifications in the memorial. Everything that has been said and spoken is straightforward, and everything that has happened since Zhao Yu appeared, is presented in its original form.
Hong Chengchou also knows that this fact is a little weird. But he has evidence.
So at the same time as the good news was reported, Hong Chengchou sent someone to take the lead, bringing ten carts of heads and an iron cone.
And the person who reported it was Pagoda Mountain Commander Li Fuming, and a soldier who had witnessed Zhao Yu's ferocity with his own eyes.
He himself was cleaning up the post-war mess, waiting for the Imperial Court to order him.
At the moment, Li Fuming is standing in the line of generals.
This good news was presented by Li Fuming himself. In this Golden Palace, Emperor Chongzhen was the first to see the good news. Even Li Fuming had never seen it - it was Governor's memorial to the emperor after all.
When Emperor Chongzhen let the court Eunuch Wang Chengen read out the good news in front of the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, what followed was a flood of condemnation.
Those officials and generals first pointed their finger at Li Fuming, saying that it was a false report of good news, deceiving the emperor, and wanting to take him down and behead him for public display.
Li Fuming was mentally prepared.
Don't be in a hurry, first rebutted a little, then showed the evidence.
So the big Han general brought in the iron cone that was placed outside the hall.
The iron cone is murderous-looking, and the person watching it is a little chilled. But it's still not enough to convince the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty to believe in such a barren night.
Or: It is a fake. trifling is an iron cone, and it is heavy, and it is impossible to create such an appearance as long as someone is thrown at the head of the cone to death.
Li Fuming still smiled faintly and never had the slightest stage fright.
He only knew that this was the truth. And after this was done, he got credit for it.
So he went out and bowed: "Your Majesty Rongyi!"
Emperor Chongzhen brushed his sleeves and robes: "Speak."
Li Fuming turned around for a while. He walked to the front of the weapon rack in the hall, stretched out his hand and pointed to the three feet of the tapered handle, and said, "Your Majesty and all the princes have never looked closely. Look here!" Close your eyes, take a closer look, and all are shocked.
The emperor nodded to Wang Chengen beside him, Wang Chengen walked down the steps, came to the front, followed Li Fuming's fingers, and saw a clear palm print three feet away from the cone handle!
It is clearly a big hand, once held here, it has peerless divine power, and it also pinched this gold and iron thing to make a mark!
Wang Chengen took another step forward and looked closely. It was clear that the palm print, even the palm print on it, was lifelike. This is clearly not man-made!
He couldn't help but stretched out his hand, closed the palm print but pinched it, and then hurried back to the emperor, loudly said: "Replying to his Majesty, there is a lifelike palm print on the taper handle, according to What the servant sees is not artificial."
"Palm patterns?!"
The emperor Chongzhen astonished: "Could it be that the warrior made it with his bare hands?"
Put his eyes on Li Fuming.
Li Fuming hurriedly bowed and said: "I tell Your Majesty, this iron cone was built overnight by the last commander. At that time, Hong Governor sent troops to Songshan to confront Jinzhou. The last commander oversee pagoda mountain. At the rear, ensure that the food passage is unobstructed. At night, the slave chief Huang Taiji sent 8,000 Ajige skilled riders to attack Pagoda Mountain around Songshan to cut off our army's back road. The last commander, Pagoda Mountain, had only 3,000 soldiers and horses, and the city was full of provisions. Most of the offensive and defensive equipment was taken away by the Governor, and the final commander is ready to live and die with the city."
devotion to righteousness that inspires reverence.
"The last commander dispatched the tent to check Tatar's movements. At the Lianshan Pass outside the pagoda mountain, he met Zhao warrior. Zhao warrior, one man one blade, was ambushed at the pass. Go on. I also told Yebu, who is under the commander of the last general, that he wants to give the power of the last general, so that Yebu will report the news to the pagoda mountain, and please send the troops immediately."
Li Fuming showed an incredible look on his face: " I don’t believe that the last commander should be. The last commander has few soldiers, is not elite, and has insufficient offensive and defensive equipment. In order to protect the city’s provisions, how can he dare to go out to the city to fight?”
The emperor heard this, co-author of Manchao Civil and military, all agree with nodded.
I heard Li Fuming say: "However, it will take time to burn a stick of incense soon, and there will be no reports at night, only Zhao warrior slashed Ajige, killing eight thousand Ajige. The big army is about to collapse when the wolf rushes to the dolphin."
Everyone had an incredible look on their faces.
"The last general was skeptical." Li Fuming said: "So I sent a team of personal soldiers to check. But it really happened!"
"Why did you lead the army out of the city? ' the emperor asked involuntarily.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Fuming said: "If you say that you didn't accept what you said the night before, you are also doubtful, but the last general's personal soldiers are Old Brothers for many years, and they will never lie to the end. Will."
The emperor nodded lightly.
"When the last general led his army to the Lianshan Pass," Li Fuming exclaimed: "Ajige's eight thousand skilled riders have already been cut in half by Zhao warrior. Many of them have already knelt down and surrendered and fled. There are very few of them."
The battle of Zhao Yu's slashing of Ajige and defeating the 8,000-strong army is also described in Hong Chengchou's memorial, but it is not detailed. Hearing what Li Fuming said one after another, the emperor couldn't help but be amazed, his face flushed, and he kept clapping his hands.
Li Fuming then said that he invited Zhao Yu to go to Pagoda Mountain, communicated with Hong Chengchou, and made the Pagoda Mountain craftsmen melt such a large iron cone for Zhao Yu overnight.
"This iron cone is in the hands of the last commander. Whether there is a palm pattern on it, the commander knows very well." Li Fuming said: "Zhao warrior broke Ajige on the same day, and went to Songshan the next day. This iron cone is only in the hands of Zhao warrior for one day and one night."
After everyone heard it, they were all absolute silence.
After a long time, Emperor Chongzhen sighed: "A real warrior!"
He looked at the iron cone: "This cone is full of Tatar blood, slave chiefs' lives, It's really a dive weapon!"
And then couldn't wait to ask: "Where is Zhao warrior now? Did you come to the capital with you?"
Hearing this, Li Fuming couldn't help but With a look of regret on his face, he bowed before saying: "Your Majesty, I must have said nothing in the Governor's memorial. Zhao warrior did not intend to be in the army. He was a member of Ningyuan Daxing Fort. At the end of the night, the general had a detailed discussion with Zhao warrior. I know that he came out of the mountain just for revenge."
paused, and added: "After the Tatar was defeated in the night, the Governor interrogated the prisoners. , learned that Zhao warrior rushed to the top generals such as the slave chiefs at that time, beheaded six or seven Tatar high-level leaders including Dodo and other slaves, and captured the slave chief Huang Taiji alive, and then took the slave chief with him. Disappeared."
"In the next day, Mo Jiang found this iron cone at the pagoda mountain city gate."
"When Mo Jiang returned to Fuzhong, Zhao had previously Ajige and another general who were handed over by the warrior to the end of the line for safekeeping - the head of the slave chief Huang Taiji eldest son Hooge, who were confirmed to be the head of the slave chief, are all gone."
Seeing the emperor also expressed regret, Li Fuming can' t help saying: "Yi Mo Jiang guessed that Zhao warrior took the head, took the slave chief, returned to his hometown, and went to pay homage to his parents."
...
Although Emperor Chongzhen regretted it, he did not give up.
Although Li Fuming said that Zhao Yu had no intention of pursuing a career in the military, Chongzhen did not believe it. Acquired civil and military skills, goods and Imperial Family, who is not?
Single-handedly, such a talented person actually defeated the Tatar Clan troops and horses, just celestial troops and generals, a blessing from God!
During the Great Ming internal trouble and outside aggression, is it not God's will that such a person suddenly appeared and helped the Imperial Court army to win the game?
Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but think, if he finds this god-given warrior, and even Tatar is no match, then what's the point of a trifling thief?
Because the message was hurriedly sent to Liaodong, Hong Chengchou had to find Zhao Yu.
...
Outside the mountain village, old Panasonic, I don't know when a small thatched hut was built.
Zhao Yu sits cross-legged in a thatched hut, wears sackcloth and filial piety, quietly looking at the altar, occasionally crossing the altar and looking at the ruined village.
On the altar, more than ten heads were all withered, and the skin and flesh on the faces were dried up, like dead tree bark, clinging to the bones. The eyeballs have been maggoted and sunken.
It looks terrifying.
The stench of corpses filled the air, and if it wasn't for the hut upwind, Zhao Yu would have been unbearable.
Five or six days have passed.
Autumn Tiger looks back, the past few days were extremely hot, and even though the dozen or so heads had been pickled, they couldn't stand the weather.
On that day, Zhao Yu beheaded Huang Taiji in front of the altar, sacrificed parents and close relatives, and settled down here temporarily.
He wants to be filial to his parents for three months, and then he will go back to the mountain to accompany the Master.
