8days ago Historical fiction 7
The troops of Yongdingying camp cleaned the end of the game and grabbed a few hiding living people from the house.Yu Qian then compiled a letter and asked them to bring the letter and put it back to Jiujiang City.

At this time, Jiujiang City was already panicked. The scouts outside the city heard the sound of guns, and people felt that Wang Shishun and his group were in danger.

When the remaining soldiers brought back a letter stamped with the Jianwen regime's seal and reported the ambush at that time, the generals fully confirmed that the other party had broken up.

The person who stayed to guard the city was Song Yi. This person was Wang Shishun’s younger brother, who was the trustworthy person General Wang.

Wang Shishun was born in a military family and had a special status in the Ming Dynasty. He usually took women from military households as his wife. Song Yi was also a military household, but his family background was not as good as Wang Shishun. He was young and had no achievements in military households and had little prestige. He used to rely on his brother-in-law to be a hero in the camp.

When the bad news about Wang Shishun came, Song Yi was shocked and angry, and immediately wanted to defend the city on behalf of his brother-in-law and take revenge against the Huguang army.

The man with a round face and big eyes and bearded face turned blue and his hands were trembling.

A fellow villager who is always close to him advised: The current situation in Nanjing is in danger, and the soldiers are like rootless Ping’s reinforcements are hopeless; we are foreign soldiers in Jiujiang City, and the soldiers are not popular in the hearts of the people, and the soldiers do not have the will to defend this place.The war may be unfavorable.

Another fellow countryman said more directly: There is a saying that is unpleasant and unpleasant, Brother Song’s prestige in the camp cannot be compared with General Wang.You were the temporary appointment of General Wang to guard Jiujiang City. Now General Wang has died and Nanjing cannot contact you. Whether the soldiers agree with you or not, and you still say that you cannot control the army and why not defend the city and go to war?

Song Yi refused to listen and said: If my brother-in-law is not here, I am the commander of the Jiujiang Army. Who can surpass his authority?

He then ordered the battalions to reorganize their arms and prepare for war, and took turns to the city to guard the city.

The situation was still good at first, and the camp army was organized, and inertially obeyed the dispatch of the Central Army. When no one made a first move, no one stood up to disobey the Central Army's orders.

...In less than two days, the slave in Wang Shishun's mansion found Shaw's body in the mansion. The slave in fear actually reported to the official.

The prefect of Jiujiang City was replaced by the military generals in the city, but the prefect of famous civil servants as prefects. Usually only civil servants can stabilize the situation in the administrative system.

This prefect was a bureaucrat appointed by the Han King's regime, but the Han King was not a solid piece, and the prefect and military generals could not urinate a pot. After this man took office, his official position was because he united and won over the local gentry. In this way, his reputation and prestige were supported and praised by someone to be stable.

The prefect is a migrant official, and most of the other officials are local tyrants. Both are separated from the military generals.When this happened, the officials hit it off. The murder case was originally the scope of power of the government office, so they had to be tried fairly.

Shaw Brothers was from the local gentry family. The officials knew about it for a long time, so they issued a license ticket to the Shao family to ask them to recognize the body on the scene.

When Mr. Shao came to the palace with a look of sadness, he saw that the prefect in red robe had already arrived in person, and a group of officials in green robe and coroner yamen runners had long been around outside the house.

The prefect asked Mr. Shao to come in and recognize him, is he the lady of the Shao family?

After the crowd entered the door, the bed inside had already moved to the position, the floor was pried open, and there was a pit of soil nearly five feet deep on the ground, and the digging soil was piled up beside the pit.

The pit was empty, and the body had been lifted out and placed next to it, covering it with white cloth.

It was early summer, and the body was already a little smelly, and the room was filled with a rotten smell of suffocation.

The yamen runner next to him stepped forward and carefully lifted the white cloth. When Master Shao saw the miserable scene in front of him, he immediately leaned back and someone else hurriedly supported him.

The female corpse was dressed in disheveled clothes, her hair was covered with only a slut, tied with a silk ribbon, and her shoulders and chest were half naked outside, as if she had been humiliated and defiled before her death. In fact, Shaw was urged to dress up before she got up.

Her eyes were still open, looking like she was dying with her eyes open, and the pinching marks on her neck became more and more obvious as the body gradually deteriorated.

Anyway, it looks very miserable.

Mr. Shao suddenly burst into tears, and everyone couldn't help but persuade him.

The prefect said seriously: After being a coroner, the victim Shao had been killed for more than three days (Wang Shishun was still living in the mansion at that time), the deceased had a ruptured throat and a finger mark on his neck. The cause of death was that he was killed.There were also slaves in the mansion who testified that this house was the bedroom of the garrison of Jiujiang Wang Shishun... He brought the witness and coroner's certificate back to the yamen. After returning to Siyi Hall to carefully infer, he would be promoted to the church for trial tomorrow.The body was taken back to the ground by his family.

It is very obvious that the case of such a case is determined to be Wang Shishun's murder of his concubine.

The public trial the next day, and this incident caused a lot of controversy. It was the biggest thing that Jiujiang City has recently been under military threats.

The so-called public trial is to try the case in public in the lobby. Local students and gentry with fame can not only sit in the lobby to listen, but also question the officials' inferences. Although ordinary people like to watch, they can not go to the lobby to watch, they can listen to the excitement outside the yamen, and there will be people in it to talk about the process and results of the case.

The result of this case is usually fair. After all, in full view of the public, if a leader of the country turns black and white and ignores common sense, his reputation will be ruined and the gentry and the people will lose credibility. How can he manage the place in the future?

The most successful thing about this case is that it is said that Wang Shishun is dead, so it is much easier to add the charge to him, otherwise the local officials would be really embarrassed. How can you get a general with heavy troops in this situation?

Song Yi, who succeeded Wang Shishun, reacted too slowly. When he realized the problem, the murder case had been decided in public.

Wang Shishun's reputation was even worse in the hearts of the local gentry and the soldiers in the camp would not recognize his bad deeds.

At this moment, the Yongding Camp of the Huguang Army had already set up troops to the city, and the sound of ceremonial artillery cannons was clearly heard in the city.

Jiangxi Governor Yu Qian sent people to the city to give an ultimatum. If he offered the city, he would not be in trouble. If he resisted, he would bombard the city gate and attack the city.

Local officials and gentry found out that Yu Qian was from a Jinshi and talked about it and hoped that the defenders would offer the city to avoid the people's war.

The generals in the camp also spoke a lot, wanting Song Yi to lead everyone to surrender...

Although Yu Qian lured and killed Wang Shishun and did not do it very kindly, Wang Shishun was guilty of ten crimes and others killed him openly. The murder case recently exposed in the palace also made people believe that Wang Shishun is not a good person and that guilt is credible.

Besides, the Jiujiang Army is known as 80,000. Apart from the hard work of imaginary numbers and recharges, there are still 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers. After all, Yu Qian is not Bai Qi but just a civil servant. Can he still kill thousands of people?

Song Yi's fellow townsman came to the Central Army again to make a comment: Brother Song's power is not enough to convince the public, and it should not be moved against others' hearts.General Wang's killing of Shaw Brothers was disappointed. Brother Song was appointed by General Wang to preside over the central army. At this time, he made a quick decision to offer the city to seek completeness.

Song Yi was a little relieved now, but he knew his identity and considered that Yu Qian was ruthless and could he let him go then?So hesitated.

He was also scared, so he asked a fellow villager to lead his personal guard to guard the camp and replace the former guard who was the straightforward.

Unexpectedly, that night, someone suddenly raised fire outside the central army and heard loud noises, and some of them shouted: Kill Song Yi, a child from Rukou, everyone has a way out!

The night is shrouded in the sky, and I don’t know the size of the people.

The guards and inspectors guarding the camp saw the fire and dared not go up to fight, but they fled in sight.

A group of people rushed into the central army easily, and suddenly became a mess inside.

The generals of the rioters led their men to rush into the central army's tent, but Song Yi disappeared, which made him hear the wind and run away in advance.

The generals of the chaotic army touched the bed and were still hot. They knew that Song Yi had not been away for a long time; but the few soldiers and soldiers could not control the central army, and it was difficult to catch Song Yi at this time.

The leading general suddenly felt that it was not very good.

Fortunately, everyone had discussed it beforehand, and the generals in charge of the military commander hurriedly came out to call on the people in the camp to stabilize the central army, and sent someone to inform the familiar generals who had always had contacts: they had taken the central army and came to work together.

Some generals came one after another, and then went to invite people from other camps. Everyone brought many subordinates to come to prevent accidents. For a while, the tent was surrounded by soldiers and inside and outside.

Everyone quarreled for a while and temporarily elected an elderly and easy-to-talk veteran to issue orders to the leader and directly occupied the central army.

In the early morning, Song Yi was sent to the army by the gentry and his servants.

It turned out that Song Yi ran out overnight and went to the city to find a place to hide, but in the middle of the night, the noise was too loud. He was discovered by the gentry in the city. People contacted friends and brought the people in and caught Song Yi. There were only two people around him.

The generals who were planning to do things were afraid that something would change, so they beheaded Song Yi and his followers. They were also afraid that his fellow villagers would hold grudges afterwards, so they directly dispatched their troops to rush into the camp of the generals without asking any questions and slashed them.

Then the new central army joined forces with the prefect's office to compile a book and send people out of the city to negotiate the conditions for the city.

Yu Qian was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately replied: The officials, soldiers and civilians in the city were not at fault, they were all citizens of the Ming Dynasty, and now the crime was first sentenced. As long as the city was opened to accept the edict of Emperor Jianwen, they would not disturb the people or commit crimes, and everyone would be protected by the law.

In order to relieve the soldiers, Yu Qian asked the Jiujiang army to leave the city and hand over the city defense area and complete the surrender without having to disarm.

The official army in the city quickly agreed to surrender, and the general simply unloaded his weapons and opened the door directly to ask for surrender.

Anyway, if the fortress city defense is handed over, it will be the same whether it is dismissed or not. If the city is gone, there is no food or supply, can you go back on your word and fight again?

Yu Qian then led the Yongding Camp army to the city gate and lined up to enter the city with no blood.

The officials and generals inside and outside the city gate knelt all the way again.

Yu Qian shouted in person immediately: Scholars with fame should not kneel down, and follow them to the government office to discuss merits and rewards, and discuss major events together.
