Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xishikou is located next to Caochang Gate in the west of Changsha. Early in the morning, the soldiers from Yidian cleared out Xishikou and built a simple wooden platform.  All the streets leading to Xishikou were guarded by Yidian soldiers wearing yellow vests and blue piping uniforms, and the streets were crowded with people watching.

    Yesterday, Shi Dakai announced to the whole city the news that the demon governor and the chief envoy would be killed at 3:00 noon today. Hearing that such high-ranking officials as the governor and the chief envoy were going to be killed, ordinary people had never seen such a scene before, and they were like chickens.  Like blood, people came from everywhere to watch the fun.

    When Xiao Yungui and Hong Yun'er rode their horses to the execution ground, Xiao Yungui felt a little regretful. If he had known that the crowd was so turbulent, should everyone watching the excitement be charged a penny admission fee?

    The King of Xi and his wife had just arrived at Xishikou, and Shi Dakai had already brought people to greet them. After a quick greeting, Xiao Yungui chuckled and said: "Da brothers are very vigorous in doing things, so important things like killing the demon governor should be publicized.  Let the people of Hecheng know our determination to rebel."

    Shi Dakai bowed slightly and said, "I'm afraid that there will be trouble if there are too many people watching, so I've sent a large number of card swordsmen to be present."

    Xiao Yungui pulled Shi Da towards the execution case arranged on the wooden platform, and said at the same time: "This is still necessary. If it is really to see the demon governor killed, the common people will be trampled and injured, then the gain will not be worth the loss."

    After arriving at Mutai to supervise the beheading case, Xiao Yungui ordered people to move two pieces of tea, and he and Hong Yun'er sat aside, indicating that Shi Dakai was still in charge of the beheading case.  Shi Dakai didn't show any pretense, so he sat down by himself. Seeing that it was still early, he ordered people to take Luo Bingzhang and Weng Tongjue out of prison, put them in a prison car, and paraded them through the main streets of the city before taking the west  Execution at the entrance of the market.

    Because in the public eye, Xiao Yungui restrained himself a lot, put on a dignified appearance, and sat upright, but after sitting for a while he felt bored.

    I couldn't help but turn my head to look at Hong Yun'er, and saw that although her face was still a little pale, she seemed much calmer than before, "Four-eyed girl, speaking of which, you have also been on the battlefield and killed people, why?  Are you still afraid?"

    Seeing Xiao Yungui's serious look, turning slightly sideways to talk to herself in a low voice, still trying to maintain that style, Hong Yun'er couldn't help but want to laugh, and suddenly the heavy thing in her heart disappeared, "That person on the battlefield  It¡¯s so that I can survive. Different from this kind of killing, I¡¯m actually not afraid, but I can¡¯t bear to kill an old man who has no ability to resist. Also, in fact, before Luo Bingzhang didn¡¯t encircle and suppress the Taiping Army in the early stage, he was still  He is a good official. When he inspected the treasury of the Ministry of Finance, he was meticulous and did not touch anything, so his official reputation was still good."

    Xiao Yungui said softly and said calmly: "Luo Bingzhang is indeed old. He is already in his fifties when he knows his destiny. But four-eyed girl, have you ever thought about why Luo Bingzhang is not greedy for checking the treasury silver? He  It is to keep his official position, and it is this kind of person who takes advantage of the situation and is the most terrifying. Now that he has burned down the official warehouse and refused to let us get a grain of food, it shows how ruthless he is. He must die." said Xiao Yungui.  Pointing to the turbulent people in the audience, he said: "Look at the people below, you won't feel scared anymore. It's not that we want him to die, it's what the people want."

    Hong Yun'er felt a little relieved again, her white teeth and bright eyes flashed, she smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your explanation."

    Xiao Yungui was attracted by her beautiful face. He was slightly startled, turned around and said, "Stop your pity. You asked me to see it. In fact, it's what you should see."

    Hong Yun'er knew what he meant. She, Hong Yun'er, was used to fighting on the battlefield, but what she wanted to kill now was the people who had been captured, and Luo Bingzhang and Weng Tongjue were both very old, so she could really be ruthless.  Don't be so kind-hearted.  So Hong Yun'er forced herself to watch the execution. She wanted to make herself stronger.

    " Xiao Yungui said it lightly, but he was also worried in his heart, but in front of Hong Yun'er, he would not show the slightest sign of weakness. This seemed to be a man's nature.  But when the prison cars holding Luo Bingzhang and Weng Tongjue arrived at the execution site one after another, Xiao Yungui couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly.

    At this time, Luo Bingzhang and Weng Tongjue¡¯s hair was disheveled, and their heads and faces were covered with mud and blood stains. It seems that along the way, people kept throwing mud and rocks at them, and both of them suffered bruises and swollen faces.  I saw that both of them had their hands stuck on the plywood of the prison car, and they could only stand on tiptoe to prevent their necks from being suffocated by the shackles. Their eyes were full of despair, which was the despair of a person who is about to die.  Complete despair.

    When several Taiping swordsmen escorted Luo Bingzhang and Weng Tongjue to the high platform, the people in the audience burst into thunderous cheers and curses, "Kill these two dog officers!" "Kill the dog officers!"

    No one sympathized with the two of them. Maybe some wealthy people in the crowd who came to watch would have pity, but no one dared to show it.  The curse of the sky-shattering level??. Amidst the cheers, Luo Bingzhang stood up tremblingly, bowed deeply to the people, took a deep breath and said loudly: "Luo would like to thank all the villagers and elders. I would like to thank you all for the years I served as an official in Hunan.  The elders of Xianghu looked after you, but Luo failed in his duties in guarding the land, causing you to fall into the hands of thieves. Luo hereby apologizes."

    Xiao Yungui didn't expect that Luo Bingzhang could say such strong words. He was so angry that he lost all the last bit of mercy in his heart. He stood up with a roar, pointed at Luo Bingzhang and sneered: "Luo Bingzhang! Open your dog eyes and see clearly.  , if I kill you today, all the people in the city will applaud you, put away your face, and do what you want to do to show your master, Emperor Xianfeng Dog!"

    Xiao Yungui¡¯s voice was loud, and as soon as he finished speaking, the Taiping soldiers and the people in the audience shouted loudly.

    Xiao Yungui walked up to Luo Bingzhang, looked at him coldly and whispered: "Not only do I want you to die, my soldiers and generals and the people of the city also want you to die, even Xianfeng who is far away in the capital also wants you to die!  See it for yourself!" After that, Xiao Yungui unfolded Zhang Liangji's reply and showed it to Luo Bingzhang.

    Luo Bingzhang couldn't help but burst into tears. He knelt down slowly, bowed three times while facing the north, and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty, I know the will. I will be loyal to the death and live up to the divine grace!"

    Xiao Yungui put away the letter, glanced disdainfully at Luo Bingzhang who was kneeling on the ground, and said: "You have been a slave of the Manchus in this life, and you will be a slave of the Manchus in the next life. It is precisely among us Chinese Han people that there are many traitors like you who don't know their ancestry.  You will suffer such humiliation, so you should go down to the underworld first to prepare to meet your master, and I will send your emperor down to reunite with you later!"

    After saying that, Xiao Yungui turned back to his seat and sat down. After three shots of the soul-chasing cannon were fired, Shi Dakai ordered the cards to be chopped off and shouted loudly: "The time has come. By the order of the Heavenly Father and the Emperor, we must kill the pure demons Luo Bingzhang and Weng Tongjue!"

    Luo Bingzhang laughed heartily, while Weng Tongjue was so frightened that he fainted on the stage. Luo Bingzhang pointed at Xiao Yungui and Shi Dakai with a ferocious face and said insidiously: "You are the one who will kill me in this life. I don't know if you will kill me in the next life."  Shall I kill you?!"

    When Xiao Yungui heard this, he felt a chill go down his spine. It was right to think that in another time and space, Xiao Chaogui died in Changsha where Luo Bingzhang was guarding, and Shi Dakai also died at the hands of Luo Bingzhang. Is this what Buddhism calls retribution?

    Cold light flashed, Luo Bingzhang's laughter stopped abruptly, and a head rolled away. Xiao Yungui stood up, looked at Luo Bingzhang's head with his eyes still open, and said coldly to himself: "I will be the one to kill in this life.  You are also here to avenge our previous life!" Then he turned to Shi Dakai and said loudly: "Command the whole city to take the heads of the two pure demons! Send someone to return them to Zhang Liangji in seven days!" After saying that, he waved his scarlet cloak,  Turn around and leave.

    Hong Yun'er followed silently. She was also startled by Luo Bingzhang's curse words. She also knew that Xiao Shi and Xiao Shi really died at the hands of Luo Bingzhang in history. Could it be that his curse was on her?  That time and space came true?  If true, it would be really mysterious.

    It was late at night and the sun was shining brighter, but the Taiping Army barracks on Miaofeng Peak was still a busy scene.  Many red-turbaned Taiping soldiers were still digging trenches and building forts, rushing to build forts.

    The lights of the Xiwang tent in the camp were brightly lit, and the firewood in the brazier was burning brightly. Ten steps outside the camp, a large number of Xiwang's personal guards were waiting with swords in their hands, and no one was allowed to approach.

    Xiao Yungui sat in the first place in the tent, with Hong Yun'er next to him. On both sides were the generals of the King of the West, Lin Fengxiang, Li Kaifang, Ji Wenyuan, Zhu Xineng, Zeng Shuiyuan, Li Yiwen, Lin Qirong, Tang Erniu, and finally Chen Picheng and Tan Shaoguang.  A half-grown child.  The generals gathered tonight under the orders of General Xi Wang. They knew that Xi Wang must have something important to discuss with them, but they didn't understand why Xi Wang wanted to call Chen Picheng and Tan Shaoguang's two children.

    Xiao Yungui lit the dry pipe, took two puffs, looked at the generals below, and said slowly: "All of you brothers are old brothers who fought all the way from Guangxi with me. You have been charging forward with me. It's really  Thank you for your hard work, brothers."

    The generals didn't understand why Xiao Yungui suddenly mentioned this. Lin Fengxiang stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Why did His Highness the King of the West say this? It will be a blessing for us all in our lives to be able to conquer the Qingyao with the King of the West." The generals all echoed their words.

    Xiao Yungui nodded and said: "I received news this evening that the armies of the Heavenly King and the Eastern King have arrived in Liling and will arrive tomorrow."

    All the generals were very happy when they heard this. Xiao Yungui frowned slightly and said, "But Qing Yao Xiangrong, He Chun, Jiang Zhongyuan, and Qin Ding also followed them. Tomorrow, in addition to assisting the troops of King Tian and King Dong to enter the city,  Besides, we may have to fight a tough battle with Qingyao!"

    The generals showed no fear and stood up one after another to challenge.

    Xiao Yungui waved his hand to signal the generals to sit down, and then said: "I want to rely on Miaofeng Peak, Tianxin Pavilion in the south of the city, Aoshan Temple and other places to stop the Qingyao. What do you think?"??¡±

    Li Kaifang stood up and said: "Qing Yao is following, and he must first establish a firm foothold. He will not attack my camp first. My younger brother thought that I should take advantage of the new arrival of Qing Yao and his foothold is not stable to attack Qing Yao and let Qing Yao go."  Don¡¯t dare to get too close.¡±

    Xiao Yungui nodded and said: "What Kaifang said is true. Tomorrow, let Fengxiang and Kaifang accompany me and lead 3,000 people to go out to meet the King of Heaven and King of the East and raid the Qingyao. The other generals will strengthen the defense of the camp. Ji Wen  Brothers Yuan and Zhu Xineng will rush to build the Yuelu Mountain camp tomorrow. The pontoon bridge has just been built, so we must protect it well and don't let Qing Yao burn it."

    The generals received their orders with a bang. After talking about military affairs, Xiao Yungui signaled the generals to retreat first, and ordered only Lin Fengxiang and Li Kaifang to stay.
