Chapter 1021 National Heroes Memorial Park

Fan Wencheng, wearing a Qing official robe, was detained in a cage. The cage was placed on a four-wheeled truck, led by two huge Sharmas, and ran towards Dagukou without stopping. On the same carriage, there were cages that detained Fan Yongdou, Fan Chengmo, Li Huaxi, Wu Rujie, Wei Zhouyin and others. There was also a team of horse-drawn carriage behind, and a group of traitors and their families were imprisoned on the carriage.

Even Kong Sizhen, who was named Princess by Bumubutai, was asked by the Mongols to come over. At this time, Kong Sizhen was also locked in a cage in this prison troop.

After the convoy passed the capital, it was replaced by Huai Army and personally escorted it.

The Huai Army cavalry riding tall horses lined up on both sides of the official road, with a convoy holding the traitors and their families in the middle.

It is obvious that Fan Wencheng's treatment after being arrested was far less than that of Monk Hong Chengchou. After all, it is understandable that Monk Hong Chengchou said that it is understandable. Hong Chengchou was greedy for life and fear of death after being captured; Shang Kexi was forced to rebel by the Daming civil official group, so Li Guodong did not abuse them. One was personally escorted to Nanjing to detain him, and the other gave him a bottle of poison to commit suicide.

But Fan Wencheng was different. He went outside the pass to surrender to the Later Jin Dynasty. No one forced him. He ran out to be a dog of the Later Jin Dynasty. This was the same as when Wang Jingwei escaped from Chongqing and went to Japan. Moreover, Fan Wencheng's actions were even worse than Wang Jingwei. Wang Jingwei could not see the hope of victory in the War of Resistance. He believed that China would perish and then ran to Japan to be a traitor. When Fan Wencheng ran to the Later Jin Dynasty, there was no natural disaster in the Ming Dynasty and the situation had not deteriorated yet. At that time, people did not think that the Later Jin Dynasty would one day annex the Ming Dynasty.

It was precisely because Fan Wencheng invested in the Later Jin Dynasty and gave advice to the Later Jin Dynasty, which played a key role in the strategic victory of the Later Jin Dynasty. Therefore, Li Guodong would never treat Fan Wencheng well.

Like Hong Chengchou, Fan Wencheng was executed by the most cruel death penalty, but even if it was torture, the treatment of the two was different before the execution. Hong Chengchou could still enjoy a clean cell. If he hadn't wanted to commit suicide on a hunger strike, he could still give him wine and meat. But Fan Wencheng would not be possible. The soldiers who escorted him only had to prevent him from committing suicide.

When the convoy arrived at Dagukou, Wang Quan and others had been waiting on the dock for a long time, and the escorted cavalry handed over the list to Wang Quan.

"All of them have arrived, right? Click the name!" Wang Quan said.

The cavalry escorted counted the number of prisoners, and each cage had a name and portrait of someone's crimes, and a big red official seal was stamped on the paper. As long as you look at the list, you can't make any mistakes.

After hearing the report from the soldiers counting the number of people, Wang Quan nodded: "All the people we want have arrived. You go and notify the Mongolians so that they can let Jiannu go and give them a chance."

The cavalry escorted left. Wang Quan looked at Kong Sizhen's name on the list and frowned. He walked to the cage where Kong Sizhen was imprisoned and said to the soldiers: "After all, he is a fifteen-year-old girl. How can he abuse it so much? Open the cage! Also, those cages where the girls were imprisoned were unveiled. They were going to be sent to marry, not to go to jail."

At this time, the Qing Dynasty was still besieged on the grassland. However, after they handed over the prisoners Li Guodong wanted, the Mongolians also changed their attitude and provided them with fresh water and food. When the Ming cavalry came back and reported the crimes, the Mongolian cavalry made way for a road and let the Qing people go.

"The Duke of Chu is still too kind. If I were Duke of Chu, no one of these Jiannu would have thought of running away! All the men were killed, and the women were staying." said a Mongolian soldier.

A Mongolian leader said: "So you don't have the ability of Duke of Chu! His target is not the Central Plains and the grassland. I heard that he wants vast land in the world! He wants to use these Jiannu to deal with the Rakshasa people and the red-haired ghosts in the West."

"I heard that there is a new continent opposite the sea, and there are mountains of gold and silver. Is this true?"

"Yes, some captured Korqin people came back from there. They were really gold and silver. And they were like the grasslands where we Mongolians lived. They were all vast grasslands, and the climate was better than ours, not that cold and much wet. They were all a place of plump water and grass, and the mountains were full of gold and silver. It was a treasure land! If we went there, except for the uncomfortable boats that had been on half a year, it would be much better than us!"

"Can we go over?" A group of Mongolian soldiers immediately surrounded him and asked with interest.

The commander of the thousand-man said, "Of course you can go! As long as you sign up, the Duke of Chu can send the registered persons, but you have to queue up. And there is no need to worry about it on the way. With a powerful fleet escort, many ships will go together. Even if one ship is in trouble, other ships will come to rescue it. It is very safe, don't worry."

On the sea, a fleet was sailing out to the Bohai Sea mouth, about to enter the Yellow Sea, and then headed south along the coastline.

The group of prisoners led by Fan Wencheng was obviously not as good as Hong Chengchou was escorted to Nanjing at that time. Hong Chengchou could live in the flagship captain's room and have good wine and food to treat, but Hong Chengchou and his group could only be detained in a sultry and incapable of air.

Although the ships escorting prisoners were large ships of a thousand tons, if they were taken to later generations, they would be very small boats. The seas in the north were storms, and the ships escorting prisoners were shaking violently on the sea. Although these prisoners were lying on the haystacks in the bottom cabin, the boats were too bumpy, and the bottom cabin was stuffy and hot, and the air was not circulating, so these prisoners began to get seasick.

Fan Wencheng, Fan Yongdou and others opened their mouths and vomited in big mouths. The vomit had a pungent stomach acid smell, which made the scent of the bottom cabin, which was originally turbid, even more unpleasant. As a result, those who were not seasick had discomfort, and they also opened their mouths and began to vomit.

The young female members of these prisoners were arranged on another ship, a much more luxurious mail ship with special cabins for them to live in. Of course, those elderly and poor women would not enjoy such treatment. They and those men were detained on another cargo ship, but the conditions were much better than those who detain Fan Wencheng and their ships.

A fleet full of prisoners, families and slaves passed through seven days and seven nights of sailing, turned into the mouth of the Yangtze River, entered the mouth of Wusong, and drove into the Huangpu River.

There were already a lot of people on the dock. In addition to the army that came to receive prisoners, a large number of people came to watch.

Li Guodong did not come to accept the prisoners in person. He was busy at the foot of the Ming Xiaoling Mountain in Nanjing and was commanding the engineers to carry out a grand and grand project. This project is the National Heroes Monument and Memorial Hall. Below the monument is the tomb of the martyrs. The remains of the soldiers who died in the fight against the Later Jin Dynasty will be buried in the tomb of the martyrs, with their names engraved under the monument.

In the memorial hall, not only are there martyrs who died, but also the names of the living national heroes will be engraved in the memorial hall. These national heroes not only include heroes from the Ming Dynasty such as Cao Bianjiao and Sun Chengzong, but also soldiers from the original thief army such as Li Dingguo, Li Guo, Li Laiheng, Liu Wenxiu, Hao Yaoqi, Sun Kewang, and a group of pirates such as Zheng Sen, Gan Hui, and Chen Yonghua. As long as they make contributions to fighting the invasion of foreign races, they are national heroes.

In the memorial hall, Li Guodong's own name is not available. He does not want to put his name on it. Justice and freely in the hearts of the people. Let the people of his descendants evaluate what he does.

Hong Chengchou's crimes have been settled, including treason, deceiving the king, being unfaithful and unfilial, making accomplices for tigers, killing heroes against Qing. Although many civil officials opposed the execution of Hong Chengchou Lingchi, Li Guodong fought with reason, and with the support of Qian Qianyi, Shi Kefa and others, the cabinet votes were planned to be passed unanimously, and the empress dowager had no objection. After the trial of the three departments, Hong Chengchou was sentenced to death by storm.

After Fan Wencheng and other criminals were taken to the scene, the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple conducted the fastest trial. Finally, according to the advice of Empress Dowager Zhang Yan, Fan Wencheng was sentenced to death by the man. Fan Yongdou, Li Huaxi, Wu Rujie, Wei Zhouyin and others were sentenced to Lingchi and executed, and the remaining traitors and three ministers were all beheaded and abandoned.

Those who commit family members and slaves who commit crimes will also be beheaded. If there is no crime, direct males over 16 years old will be executed. If the males who are not direct, they will be sent to the plantation in Nanyang as slaves for life. The males who are ten to sixteen will be sent to the Qiongzhou Iron Mine or Annan Coal Mine and will work in the dark mine for more than ten years. After the age of twenty, they will be sent to Oceania.

Female relatives are dealt with according to the principle of less killing. In addition to the execution of a feminine wife and a fan inmate, most of the concubines, daughters, etc. are sent to the Jiaofangsi, and some are sent to marry. Women such as maids and distant relatives are assigned to meritorious officers and soldiers.

Hong Chengchou met Fan Wencheng who was entrusted to Hong Chengchou's cell and met him.

"Brother Hengjiu, I didn't expect we would meet here." Fan Wencheng sighed.

But Hong Chengchou could not answer him because of his stubborn hunger strike. Li Guodong ordered him to force-feed. At this time, Hong Chengchou had been forcibly force-feeded for almost a year. A hose was inserted into his mouth and inserted into his stomach. Because foreign objects existed in the human body for a long time, Hong Chengchou's esophagus was inflamed and swollen, and he was in extreme pain. Moreover, his hands and feet were tied up and lay on the bed for a year. Although the Jinyiwei often wiped his body, he could not move. He was tied up and lying there. His back was almost stuck with the bed board. The summer in Nanjing was hot again, and Hong Chengchou's body was stinky.

Fan Wencheng sighed: "Brother Hengjiu, why are you doing this? I'll be killed sooner or later. It's better to enjoy your life while I'm still alive."

Hong Chengchou could not speak at all, so he could only curse in his heart: What does it mean to be a knife? I want to be a thousand swords! Although he is afraid of death, he would rather die now than to be a thousand swords. What's more, because of his resistance, his current situation is worse than death. At this time, someone killed him with one sword, which is a relief for him.

But Hong Chengchou could not die at all. Even if he was seriously ill, someone would take good care of him. Anyway, he could not be allowed to die before the completion of the National Heroes Memorial Park. If Hong Chengchou died early, the Jinyiwei who guarded him would be punished.

Fan Wencheng looked at Hong Chengchou's life was worse than death, and he sighed: "Brother Hengjiu, I was wrong in judgment. I thought Huang Taiji was a wise lord and the Qing Dynasty would win the world. Who knew that Li Lao Er fell out of thin air and beat the Qing Dynasty into this. Brother Hengjiu, I was all the one who harmed you. If I didn't persuade you to surrender to you back then, you would have died, and you would have been a hero of the Ming Dynasty, and you would not have been better than death lying here now."

The next thing was that the new emperor ascended the throne. Jiang Guan gave Zhu Cixiao to Li Guodong, and Li Guodong brought him back to Nanjing. However, Zhu Cixiao did not come back. Under Li Guodong's deliberate instruction, Wu Sangui led the "Emperor of Ming Dynasty Zhu Cixiao" to march westward. At this time, he had already attacked the Yarkand Khanate. Guanning Iron Cavalry, Manchu Eight Banners, Han Eight Banners and Mongolian Eight Banners Army started killing on this green territory, killing the descendants of the Turks in the local area into a river of blood.

At the same time, Wu Sangui also issued an order under the name of "Emperor Zhu Cilang of the Ming Dynasty" to announce that he would vigorously open a pig farm in the local area. All locals must raise pigs. If anyone refuses to follow, the whole family will be executed!

Li Guodong promised Wu Sangui that if Wu Sangui can expand his territory and block the donkey sect, his name will also enter the National Heroes Memorial Park in the future.

Later, the Western Expedition Army, which had Zhu Cilang as the emperor, gained a foothold on the Ottoman border and fought with the Ottoman Empire every year. After the Ming Dynasty was replaced by the Tang Empire, Wu Sangui established the Western Ming Dynasty and Zhu Cilang as the emperor.

On the day when the National Heroes Memorial Park was completed, the new emperor Zhu Cixu ascended the throne and his reign was Yixing. But this cowardly guy was forcibly promoted to the throne by Li Guodong. With his personality, he could only be an Emperor Xian of Han.

Zhu Cixu ascended the throne and became emperor, so Zhu Cijiong, the governor, would definitely not be able to be the governor of the country. So he was named King of the East, and his fief was on the other side of the distant Pacific Ocean.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, he would personally issue an order to execute the prisoners.

Under the escort of a group of Jinyiwei, Zhu Cixuan, the Emperor Xian of Ming, left the palace and went to the foot of the Ming Xiaoling Mountain. The emperor and civil and military officials first worshiped the Ming Xiaoling Mountain, and then the prisoners were taken up.

Emperor Yixing issued an order to execute a group of criminals! Fan Wencheng, the punishment of the man-pig! Hong Chengchou, Fan Yongdou, Li Huaxi, Wu Rujie, Wei Zhou Yin and others were punished, and Ling Chi was executed! The rest of the criminals were beheaded!

The executioner waved his big knife, and more than 300 heads fell to the ground.

Then, these heads were brought to the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum to worship Taizu.

After the prisoners who were executed by the Lixue execution were executed, then Lingchi was executed. Because there were not so many skilled executioners, Li Huaxi, Wu Rujie, Wei Zhou Yin and other three were first cut off. They were executed with a thousand swords, and Lingchi was all day long. The next day, it was the turn to execute Hong Chengchou and Fan Yongdou.

Hong Chengchou and Fan Yongdou were given special care and needed 3,600 pounds.

The people in the capital were passionate. Every time these two guys were sliced ​​with a piece of meat, the people scrambled to grab food. The execution of Lingchi was executed for a total of three days and three nights. It was not until the two were cut to the point of only the skeleton left. The executioner stabbed the heart with the last knife, ending their pain, and his heart was dug out to worship Taizu.

The highlight was still behind. Fan Wencheng was dragged to the death penalty platform. The executioner waved a big axe and cut off Fan Wencheng's arm and thighs. Then someone came up to stop the bleeding and wrapped the wound with gauze soaked in salt water and alcohol. Fan Wencheng fainted. Then someone sucked him with cold water, then dug off his eyes, cut off his tongue, pierced his eardrum, and sealed his ears with hot copper juice, and then put the man's piercing into a large jar.

After Fan Wencheng was made into a human pig, he lived for seven days and seven nights, and finally died in extreme pain.
