Chapter 537 Borrowing a knife to kill(1/2)
The rooster can't become a phoenix even if it is inserted into a phoenix. After being accused by the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty, he returned to the city as the full agent of the Song Dynasty and began his reckless performance in Huining City.
The behavior also completely disappointed the officials and people in the city, and understood that he was not a Bodhisattva, but a scoundrel who was a disaster to the country and the people, was inclined to the flames and was timid and timid.
Kexi first detained all the royal families of the Wanyan tribe who had been going back to Taizu for three generations in the name of protection in the imperial city, and sent their confidants to take care of the supervision, prohibiting them from leaving the palace, and not letting them run around. Because he knew that these people must have been sought by the Southern Dynasty.
The goal of the family can be used to eliminate all the bloodlines of the royal family. In the future, those who have royal status will become rare things, and they will definitely be able to have their own unique family and have no competitors.
In order to express his sincerity in submitting his ruling sanction, he thought that no one could express his loyalty better than white silver and yellow Cancan gold. The Southern Dynasties also received a reward of 500,000 taels of gold and 10 million taels of silver before they were willing to withdraw their troops.
The problem is that the Jin Dynasty has been living a tight life over the years. In addition to paying annual monies, most of the real money and silver were taken to the trenches by Wushu. In addition, in order to deal with the Northern Expedition of the Song army, the national treasury was already empty.
Cleaner than some people's faces.
There is no money in the treasury, which does not mean that there is no money in the personal pocket. Those royal relatives and important officials have made great money in previous wars of aggression. They probably have not been defeated for so many years, and they all have a large number of slaves and
The fiefdom must have been accumulated in the family, and there are many merchants who fled to the capital from all over the country, and they also brought their family backgrounds. Kexie put her ideas on these people, and thus a silver campaign
Fully expand.
Although the Kuoli action failed at the beginning of the siege, Wanyan Kexi didn't care. He thought it was because Wanyan Tan and others' methods were too gentle that they failed. If it were the ones he was in charge of this matter, he would never have failed.
The possibility. In the world, it is painful to cut off the flesh and to pay for it. The country has reached the verge of destruction, and neither the emperor nor the army can point it. Only money can make people feel at ease and help themselves survive in this chaotic years.
Of course no one is willing to hand over it.
Huining City, which had already become a purgatory on earth, was upgraded to the eighteenth level of hell in a blink of an eye. The scope of this search includes the palaces of the kings in the city and even officials. It can be said that no one from top to bottom is spared. The applause is very simple, without
Just make money, and it is not to scare, but to kill until the last penny is squeezed out. For a moment, the city caused another bloody storm. The soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army were not good people. It is definitely a matter of doing such things.
If someone refuses to follow, he will torture him.
Wanyan Qi was Han Wanwan's eldest son. He was awarded the title of General of the State as a royal family. Later, Mengfu was promoted to the special promotion and was appointed as the governor of the Anwu Army. However, this son was mediocre, cowardly and without talent, and was demoted.
The third-rank salary was left to the capital for court. After hearing about the silver, he immediately offered 20,000 taels of silver to pass. He was very happy that he had a good start and gave him a verbal reward, but he did not expect someone to report that he had hidden in his house.
There is a lot of silver.
Kexi immediately sent someone to search and dug out 100,000 taels of silver from the yard. He hated him for concealing and immediately ordered someone to punish him. Wanyan Qi immediately called him in horror, and gave out hundreds of taels of gold and
A lot of jewelry. Seeing that this trick was very useful, he was happy to think that Han Li Bu attacked the Khitan and went south to Bianjing twice, robbing countless gold, silver and treasures. It must be more than this, so he took his other two sons.
Wanyan Jing and Wanyan Wen were arrested and questioned, and asked him to cover up the Yin.
Wanyan Jing also relied on his identity as a clan and became a Hanlin scholar. He also studied the history of the country, but in fact he was an official who had a reputation and had some salary. Everyone thought he had no money at all and had no more money at home. He couldn't do it after a long time of struggle.
How much does it cost? Kexie didn't believe that Xie slapped his cousin's mouth in person and sniffed him for more than a dozen big mouths. Wanyan Jing was so scared that he peed his pants and said that there was silver under his central hall. He sent someone to come over.
Dig, the floor was covered with silver.
Everyone was excited to see this and thought that the poorest guy actually had so much family background, so the third brother Wanyan Wen had to examine it even more carefully. This guy was once an official in the Ministry of Affairs because he used inferior products as good people.
He was dismissed from office and was given a title after embezzling more than 10,000 yuan of taxes. He must have been rich. So he used a big punishment as soon as he came up and used a stick to cut off all his ten fingers, forcing him to tell the place where the silver was hidden, which was pitiful Wanyan
Wen was fined when he was dismissed from office and was idle for many years. There was no way to get money. His family savings were almost exhausted. He actually suffered a serious crime by his two brothers. Finally, he was in a small fire.
The burning, the big slap hit the pain, and after a night of torture, the man finally caused great pain to die.
Zisong, another hero of the Song Dynasty, was certainly not spared. His grandson Xie Ge was also a master who could catch money. He served as the governor of the Hosou Pavilion and later served as the governor of Tokyo, but was given a private use of official property.
It can be found that the misappropriated public funds are not a small amount. They were removed only because of his grandfather's merits. Later, they were re-activated, but he did not change his bad habits and was dismissed for accepting bribes. He originally wanted to
The Song army fled from the capital before the siege of the city, but because of too much property, it was a pleasure to travel.
Such a big tiger not only has a rich family, but also has the ability to make money. Of course, he has to take care of it and ask him to take out 500,000 taels of silver. Brother Xie has become a model of frankness and strictness. If he doesn't hand over a sum of money, he will be punished.
Once, he finally begged that there was no more at home, but no one believed it. Ke Xi Yan ordered the soldiers to interrogate and served him for five days and five nights. In the end, all the bones on Brother Xie's body were broken and his head was
He was cracked by a splint and his brain was leaking out. However, Zong Han's eldest grandson Wanyan Bingde escaped because he was captured in the Battle of Jinzhou. I really don't know what to think...
In just ten days, Wanyan Kexi collected five million taels of silver and sent it to the Song camp in a big and small cart, but the Emperor of Song was very dissatisfied. This was only 30% of the military expenses, saying that if it was impossible to do so within five days, it would be very easy to do so.
After getting all the necessary needs, he will send troops into the city to help him complete the task, but the matters discussed must be discussed again. I heard that I was shocked and ordered all measures to be taken to cover the silver.
In order to make up enough military expenses for the Southern Dynasty, the bank was very happy to cause trouble for the nobles of the Jin Dynasty. He ordered the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army to collect silver at will, and even if they were on the streets, they could be punished.
The Leopard Army has not disappointed everyone's expectations and searched for wealth and fed her personal bags.'Everyone can use punishment, and punishment can be used everywhere' has become the most common method. In a moment, the sticks and staff flew wildly, the cannons were scorching, the eyes were dug and the intestines were cut, and the sounds were heard everywhere.
The screams of the officials of the Jin Dynasty even arrested the yamen runners or the chief squad for interrogation. They asked them to reveal where the gold and silver secrets of a certain official and gentry were hidden, and then they went to plunder them. Therefore, countless people were tortured and killed.
.
The Tiger and Leopard Army, who seek the greatest pleasure in money and cruelty, has completely lost control. They have squeezed out the money of the powerful and powerful. The rich people in the city have been regarded as a new source of wealth by them and began to capture the rich households at will, and the city is even more chaotic. Regardless of the officials, the rich people,
Residents, as long as they seem to have money at home, will definitely be tortured, and more than a thousand people die under torture. The entire capital is trapped in white terror.
Seeing that the Tiger and Leopard Army had made a fortune in the silver, the Jin army, who had fought with the Song army, had no choice but to live without any help and could only eat some horse feed. They couldn't help but complain, and felt that the country was not worthy of being supervised, so they took it out in private.
In this way, the streets were full of soldiers holding ropes. When they saw that they were well-dressed and obese, they suspected that they were rich people. They immediately tied up and chased after them, and even "a green and white household."
The wall is unlucky to escape.”
While chasing wealthy and powerful people, there is no good life for the people. In broad daylight, shops and residents are often robbed, all the firewood and rice are robbed by the army, and the civilian horses, mules, and bronze ware are ordered to be lost to the camp.
The people in the city were all over the country for military use. But Kexi ignored it. His indulgence was that the silver had changed from looting to lewd, and soldiers went to the civilian houses to rob money and raped the people. They forced the leverage of the people.
There are many incidents, and more than 300 women died overnight in the prime minister's residence alone.
Kexie, when he entered the capital, the people of the capital had high hopes for the army he led to serve the king, but he soon imprisoned the emperor. He would only burn, kill, loot, and do all kinds of evil. For such a brutal army, the residents in the city naturally suffered so much.
More and more people fleeing. In order to prevent residents from escaping, they actually used the method of continuation. They ordered ten families to protect one, if one fugitive, ten families were killed together, and the people who had no assets and were plundered were watched.
Death from freezing and starving.
Those who were released finally fully understood that the Dashun Dynasty they wanted to be loyal to was a group of robbers and must not have any hope. At this time, the Dashun army did transform into a group of robbers. After releasing the detainees, they tortured them.
Before it stopped, the crazy Liu Zongmin continued to attack civilians and merchants, and the destruction of military discipline was still serious.
At this time, the officials of the Jin Kingdom finally understood that their loyalty is actually an unreliable person and a person who lacks political acumen. However, with his thoughts and character, he is still a gangster boss.
Almost the same, being a politician is far from being a big deal!
This is not only from what he does, but also from his use of people. Although the most elite Tiger and Leopard Army under his command is brave in war, he is a bandit, a hooligan, and a cruel person by nature. He doesn't have to worry about fighting the five countries' ministries.
Their vicious means can be used to maintain their rule need to be discussed. After all, they are not facing enemies, and now they have completely restored their 'original positions' and become a group of robbers who do everything they want.
If he is a wise man, he should be wary of these unscrupulous and cruel guys after taking control of the regime, but he gave them the work that was extremely rich and easily out of control to him. Maybe he thought he was by his side.
No one can trust, perhaps because he wants to reward these people who follow him in return, and because of his loyalty, he has entrusted important tasks. But now he understands that it is too late...
..............
Wanyan Dan sat alone behind the imperial case and faced the hall where hundreds of people could drink at the same time. From time to time, the loud sound of soldiers smashing the door and prying the locks, and the screams of the women were heard.
Huh, there was also the man's grin. He knew that it was the tiger and leopard army guarding the palace who were transporting property from the granaries and teasing the maids and concubines in the palace. But all he could do now was to turn a blind eye and listen, and could not stop this offense.
Victory's behavior.
"Your Majesty, how are you?" Just as Wanyan Tan was secretly hurt, the palace gate was pushed open suddenly, and Wanyan Kexi walked in. Strictly speaking, he broke in. He arched at the emperor and said.
"Fortunately, the King of Liao works day and night for state affairs and needs to take care of himself!" Wanyan Tan stood up and squeezed out a smile and said, but he was already angry. He was wearing a bright yellow battle robe, a jade belt on his waist, and Taizu Zeng was hung with him.
The precious swords used are all transcendent actions. The nine clans should be punished according to their crimes, but he was helpless.
"Your Majesty, I have something to discuss!" Wanyan Kexi sat down next to the emperor and said.
"The Liao king just needs to deal with military and national affairs, so there is no need to ask me." Wanyan Tan waved his hand and said, this sentence may be what he said the most in his life. First it was Zong Gan, then Zong Han, Zong Qing, Wu Shu,
Now it's changed to Kexi.
"This matter must be your Majesty, no one can replace it!" Kexi said with some amusement when he looked at the emperor's cautious look.
"Please speak with a king of Liao!" Wanyan Tan said with a smile.
"The Emperor of the Southern Dynasty asked for a huge amount of military expenditure, and although he raised all kinds of measures, he was still far from the same. Seeing that the five-day period was coming, I would like to ask His Majesty to leave the city and explain it to the Emperor for a few more days." Wanyan Kexi sighed.
Say.
"Is it not enough to donate all the things in the palace to ask for?" Wanyan Dan was surprised. This was obviously a business that had never returned. But he obviously did not dare to go, so he asked himself to die.
"Your Majesty, the country is already empty, and the things in the palace are still being checked and calculated. I don't know if I can get enough. If I had known that the country was so destructive, why would I have to wade into this muddy water?" Wanyan Kexi glanced at him.
The emperor said regretfully, obviously because he was dissatisfied with his family and made the treasury empty, which made him work hard to make money by making it very hard.
"I am the king of a country. Once I go out of the city to go to the Song camp, the country will be unparalleled." Wanyan Tan had to remind Kexi that he was still the emperor. If he was detained, it would be over.
"This..." Wanyan Kexi was also stunned. He still understood the truth that no hair was left. The country was gone, and he was still in charge of the country. This was something he had not considered in advance.
"King of Liao, I have been ascending the throne for more than twenty years. I know that there is no major mistake or evil. I will die without hatred. What I hate is that my ancestors have passed on for only a few decades, and it has been lost to me. I have been devastated with the kings who have been licentious and rioting since ancient times.
This is the only one who introduces the ear.” Looking at Kexi, Wanyan Tan suddenly said sadly.
"What does your majesty mean?" Kexi asked with a frown. He understood the emperor's words, which meant that he had been emperor for more than 20 years and had never done anything serious. I was not afraid of death.
But I wish I could continue the Jin Dynasty's destiny and destroy the foundation of my ancestors. I was the king of the destruction of the country with those debauchery of the tyrants and riots, but the emperor seemed to be explaining the funeral.
"I want to pass on you to continue the national lineage!" Wanyan Tan stared at Kexi and said his decision word by word.
"..." Kexi became petrified in an instant. He didn't expect the emperor to spread the situation where he was located. The huge pie fell from the sky would hit him. But he was not ecstasy, but a hint of anxiety and confusion...
Ascending the throne was something that Wanyan Kexi longed for and was afraid of at the same time. When he was far away from the frontier, his biggest dream was to be the king, and to be a powerful minister like Wu Shu. Therefore, when he learned that
The capital was surrounded and knew that his opportunity had come. He would lead his troops desperately after receiving the imperial edict to serve the king. However, due to long-term inertia, he did not dare to act rashly after entering the city. He knew that his foundation in the capital was still shallow.
Even though Wu Shu was seriously ill and was neglected by the emperor, he did not dare to challenge him. He did not seize power until Wu Shu died.
To be continued...
