Chapter 363 Completely destroy the enemy's will to resist(1/2)

Zhu Qiyu can forgive Zhu Wengui, he can forgive Li Xian, and he can kill the third prince with a sword.

You can kill the two stinky brothers Hui Changbo, Jingyuanbo, Pengchengbo, Hui'anbo, and Zhang Fu who have fallen into the reputation of the British government, and the insects hovering over the city of Nanjing.

Chengshan Bowangtong, who was defeated in the Battle of Jiaozhi and even wanted to dig out the mouth of the Yellow River, can be sent to the Taiyuan Hospital for observation.

Zhu Qiyu was undoubtedly a ruthless king, but he could not kill all the 250,000 rebels.

The number of prisoners killed is unknown.

After the army crossed the river, the 250,000 rebels almost surrendered without a fight and surrendered in defiance.

There was also a military revolt, and Wang Ji and others, who had the intention of Qingshan Changzai Chai Bukong, were all captured and sacrificed under the palace.

Zhu Qiyu arrived at the foot of Ma'an Mountain. He attended the briefing held by Duke Wei today and was wearing regular clothes.

He wanted to see for himself and confirm whether his forgiving of these 250,000 people was a foolish order.

From a war perspective, when the enemy loses its ability to resist, we can begin to force the other party to obey our will.

From a political point of view, these soldiers were completely blindly obedient, and many of them were recruited and temporarily dragged to the gates of Nanjing.

When they were transferred from Guizhou, Huguang, Guangdong and Guangxi, they had no idea what was going on.

They themselves were the army of the Ming Dynasty, and for a long time, they did not even know that they were rebels.

Upon arriving at the gates of Nanjing City, they were immediately dispersed and mixed into the 12th Regiment Camp of Nanya.

From the perspective of running an army, Wang Ji has a little bit of ability. For example, this kind of mixing completely eliminated the possibility of his fellow villagers gathering together to form a camp.

When the Japanese troops and Caocao troops entered Beijing, the first thing Yu Qian did was to break them up, otherwise there would be a high chance that the troops would gather in groups.

From an economic point of view, these are all laborers, and more utilitarian, these are adults, and they can all create wealth.

Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath and signaled that the driver could enter the mountain.

There are many construction sites in the mountains. It is already dusk, and each battalion begins to blow whistles for repairs.

Zhu Qiyu got out of the car, and with Yu Qian and Li Xian came to the military camp at the foot of Ma'an Mountain, where Shi Heng was in charge.

Zhu Qiyu and his party arrived around the school grounds and heard Shi Heng's almost angry roar.

Shi Heng stared angrily and shouted loudly: "Half a month ago, Wu Fenying's 3,000 Battalion was ordered to escort 5,000 rebels to Dangtu to open coal mines. Twenty-three people tried to escape at night and reached Qingshan River.

Thirteen households of villagers were robbed, restrained, and executed!"

"Bring me up!"

Shi Heng was not lynched. He reported it to Dali Temple in Nanya, and Zhu Qiyu expedited the execution and had Shi Heng beheaded in public display.

The rebel prisoners were divided into several categories.

The first category is the absolute core of Jing Yuanbo and others. These people are the main generals who control the army of Wang Ji and others. Before Zhu Qiyu entered Nanya, they had been pushed to the city walls and all beheaded.

The second category is the bandits, thieves, lazy men and wanderers from all over the country, and those who take the initiative to rebel and cause trouble. These people also have the blood of the common people on their hands. Once it is found out, they will be executed without mercy.

The third category is some generals. These people obey the orders of the generals. They are indeed aware of the rebellion, but due to the herd mentality, they follow the crowd.

The fourth category is ordinary soldiers who don't know anything at all. They didn't know what happened until they were put on the ship and sailed down the Yangtze River.

The twenty-three people who were beheaded escaped and went to Qingshan River. In addition to robbing, they also killed more than ten people and raped and humiliated three women.

The generals of the 3,000-strong Wufen camp who failed to supervise them were fined for several months and publicly criticized.

Zhu Qiyu watched as the twenty-three people were pushed onto the autumn platform and their heads were chopped off by the executioner.

There were many rebel generals sitting in the school grounds, and twenty-three heads fell to the ground in front of them.

Shi Heng continued to speak loudly: "It has been more than a month and a half since Master Wang crossed the river. There have been one hundred and twenty-three escapes in this month and a half, but most of the escapes were due to fear of the thunder and wrath of the sky.

Afraid of being attacked by axes and axes."

"Your Majesty is merciful and will forgive you for your treasonous crimes. You will not be beheaded after repeated orders. The number of people escaping from the camp will gradually decrease."

"In the past half month, there has been no escape from the camp! These twenty-three people escaped from the camp and looted. This is the worst case! I hope it will be the last one!"

"The following is an edict of commendation written by His Majesty himself!"

Before Zhu Qiyu took office in Nanjing, he was thinking about a problem.

That's why this group of rebels organized and surrendered on a large scale.

In fact, the main reason is the lack of food.

Autumn had already begun in Nanjing before the army crossed the river in October. After the autumn harvest, food and grass should be extremely abundant.

But Zhu Qiyu obviously didn't understand the specific military affairs, so he had this illusion.

When Wang Ji raised his troops, he made the sergeants hungry and well-fed. Only when the battle was about to begin, would they be given full meals and rations, thus ensuring the restraint on the army.

Why don't you run? Because you can't run.

After Wang Ji Bingjian was captured, the 250,000-strong army did not even have enough food to eat. They were hungry, unable to run away, and unable to fight.

In the end, the only option was to surrender, and even when they surrendered, they didn't even have weapons.

This way of fighting is actually Zhu Yunwen's way of fighting, Wang Ji's way of fighting, and even more so, Zhu Qizhen's way of fighting.

On July 28, the 14th year of Zhengtong, Zhu Qizhen gave each of the army one tael of silver, one piece of fat coat and trousers, two pairs of leather shoes, three measures of wheat for one month, and a total of eighty weapons.

Yu Wan was marched and escorted.

When we went out to fight in person, we were not even given a jacket. It was already very cold in the eighth lunar month, especially outside the Great Wall. When we marched outside the Great Wall, countless people died of frostbite and starvation, and their morale immediately collapsed.

Zhu Qiyu didn't know that this was how wars were fought during the Zhengtong years until the Nanjing rebels surrendered!

Now Shi Heng manages the prison camp by only giving him one day's worth of food at a time. The rebel camp is actually very easy to control.

Li Xian didn't know the situation, so he asked a few questions in a low voice, his eyes widened, this tyrannical dynasty actually fought like this?!

He was a weak scholar who had seen battles, but he was not responsible for military affairs and had no idea that the Zhengtong Dynasty actually marched and fought like this.

Think about it with your eyes, can a war be fought like this?

How to ensure the training of soldiers when weapons are issued before battle?

In the face of war, the rations are only three dou, or one liter of rice a day for a month?

I'm starving to death!

This has to take into account the deductions from top to bottom of those finished products!

No wonder he would remonstrate with soldiers.

Li Xian finally knew that during the battle of Xuanfu, His Majesty sent troops to Xuanfu. The whole Xuanfu was shocked. They probably had never fought such a rich war before!

In the battle of Xuanfu, there was also a slight mistake at first, and then after taking a few steps forward, we stepped into the thunder pool, and there was no recovery.

Xuanfu is a frontier army, and the treatment is slightly worse than that of Jingying.

No wonder after the Xuanfu established the Yuantai Marquis, those soldiers who participated in the night battle burst out with that kind of deep-rooted willingness to fight!

No wonder everyone in the capital camp is filled with loyalty written all over them!

They listen to whatever His Majesty says.

Your Majesty gave you too much!

Zhu Qiyu tilted his head and whispered to Qian: "Before I sorted out everything about the rebel prisoners, I didn't expect that they would be grateful if I gave them a full meal."

During the battle to defend the capital, Zhu Qiyu lost seven liters per day, and the soldiers forgot themselves and went to the disaster. (Chapter 25)

Yu Qian smiled and said: "Your Majesty's army is composed of elite soldiers and strong generals. It is a royal division. Each team is equipped with three firemen. This is incomparable."

"When the two Huaihe Rivers were fighting, during the confrontation in Yangzhou, Shi Biao lit a fire to cook, and the originally stubborn defenders of Yangzhou City surrendered."

Of course Zhu Qiyu knew this, but he just shook his head.

The sergeants in the Zhengtong period, under the banner of Xingwen and Wu, were really miserable.

During the war, they were given one liter of rice every day. Even during the Chongzhen period, Emperor Chong would not dare to do this.

When Emperor Chong fought in the Battle of Songjin, each sergeant was given three liters of rice per day and four coins per month!

Shi Heng stood on the general stage and shouted loudly: "The 123rd Battalion of the Prisoner Camp, the 123rd Battalion, has done a good job in opening the well, and will be reduced from labor service for two months."

"The 17th team of the 10th battalion of the prisoner camp went to the 127th team to escort 170,000 kilograms of coal to the Bingzi warehouse in Nanjing. For meritorious service, the labor service will be reduced for one month."

"The Seventh Battalion of the prisoner camp has a total of more than 21,000 people. One commendation! Three commendations can reduce the labor service by one month."



Shi Heng read out a long list of people who had to be reduced from labor service. These were all reform activists.

For some dirty and tiring work that needs to be done urgently, you can accumulate a commendation once, and three commendations can be exchanged for one month of reduced labor.

Those jobs that no one wanted to do were immediately taken up by people, and they were very active.

"roll"

Zhu Qiyu used some small methods to fully mobilize the initiative of the prisoner camp.

"Everyone is here. After returning to the camp, conduct daily criticism and praise meetings and disband!" Shi Heng shouted loudly.

After the prison camp left the school grounds in an orderly manner, Shi Heng took a few steps and saw His Majesty coming just now.
