The Dahua Empire base camp ordered: "Wu Guohui, commander-in-chief of Tie Erye, Yuan Chonghuan, deputy commander-in-chief, and Murong Zhi, military advisor, immediately encircled and suppressed Zhang Xianzhong." ”When Wu Guohui received the order from the base camp, he was already going to Sichuan day and night to kill Zhang Xianzhong.Before that, Wu Guohui and Yuan Chonghuan had heard rumors from all sides about how murderous Zhang Xianzhong was.Zhang Xianzhong's word Bingzhong, No.
Jingxuan, Ming Wanli ancient thirty-four years & He was born on September 18 in Liuqu Village, Haotan Township, Dingbian County, Shaanxi Province.Although he read a little as a child, he was a complete scoundrel, a scoundrel, and a scoundrel.He had broken the law in the army, and he was supposed to be beheaded, but he was only pleaded for because of his powerful appearance, so he was saved from death.In 1630, the third year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Xianzhong actively responded to the call of the anti-Ming Dynasty and revolted in Mizhi.Soon after, he and Li Zicheng and others attached themselves to Gao Yingxiang, Gao Yingxiang was called the king, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng were called generals.In 1635, the eighth year of Chongzhen, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng began to split due to small reasons, Zhang Xianzhong led his troops to attack the Yangtze River Basin, and Li Zicheng attacked the Yellow River Basin.Since then, two peasant rebel armies on the land of China, one has swept the world in the north, and the other has swept thousands of armies in the south.After Zhang Xianzhong's rebel army went south, he successively fought with the army of the Ming Dynasty in Hubei and Hunan, because he adopted the tactics of "the enemy advances and I retreat, and the enemy retreats and I fight" and "avoiding the real and making the virtual" tactics, so that he has more time to win battles and less time to eat defeats, so that Zhang Xianzhong's power is getting bigger and bigger.During this period, he also played the trick of political deception, and for a while proposed to return to the Ming Dynasty, when the imperial court had just agreed and entrusted him with important tasks, he suddenly changed his position and gave the imperial court's army a surprise attack, defeating the imperial court's army; After a while, he will work closely with Li Zicheng, saying that he will jointly fight back against the Ming Dynasty.When Li Zicheng was actively cooperating with him, he suddenly changed his hexagram, and after Li Zicheng relaxed his vigilance, he wantonly expanded his territory and people.Zhang Xianzhong used such a treacherous, despicable, and shameless trick to win military victories again and again.Zhang Xianzhong thus controlled all of Hunan, as well as the vast areas of southern Hubei, Guangdong, and northern Guangxi.In the first month, Zhang Xianzhong led his troops to Sichuan.After Zhang Xianzhong entered Sichuan, although he encountered resistance from many local armed forces, this was for his powerful army.It's like being in a no-man's land.On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Xianzhong's peasant army conquered Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan.After conquering Chengdu, Zhang Xianzhong immediately eradicated the forces of the princes from all walks of life, and as soon as the situation stabilized, Zhang Xianzhong couldn't wait to claim the emperor in Chengdu.The founding name of the country is "Daxi", with Chengdu as the western capital.In order to consolidate his power, he personally appointed his four adopted sons as kings: Sun Kewang was appointed as the king of Pingdong.Liu Xiu was appointed as the king of Funan, Li Dingguo was appointed as the king of Anxi, and Ai Nengqi was appointed as the king of Dingbei.In this way, the southeast, northwest, and northwest of Sichuan were guarded by his adopted sons and cronies.The reason why Zhang Xianzhong wants to set the capital is Chengdu.He is very optimistic about the treasure land of Chengdu.Because, the Chengdu Plain is not only rich in products, like spring in all seasons, but also easy to defend and difficult to attack.The mountains around the Chengdu Plain have become his natural barriers.Being the emperor in such a place, Zhang Xianzhong seems to have a sense of peace of mind.The Onishi regime was established.became the emperor again, which made Zhang Xianzhong, who was used to fighting and killing, feel extremely empty and lonely.That's when he thought of Buddhism.One day, he went to Chengdu Daci Temple to burn incense, but he tripped over the high threshold and almost fell.After he was helped up, he was immediately furious and ordered all the monks in the temple to be killed.So, his subordinates immediately drew their swords and killed the monks of the whole temple.After killing the monks in Daci Temple, Zhang Xianzhong's anger was not completely relieved, and he ordered to kill all the monks in the temples around Chengdu.So, his army marched into all the temples around Chengdu and went on a killing spree.For a time, the blood of these temples flowed into the sky, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and many temples were reduced to ashes.In this bloodbath, more than 2,000 monks were slaughtered, and almost nothing was missed.Chengdu people's Buddhist beliefs for many years were slaughtered by Zhang Xianzhong's anger.Just when Zhang Xianzhong was massacring monks, two Western missionaries who were preaching in Chengdu advised him not to exterminate humanity in this way.Because they were considered Westerners, they were let go of their lives.However, Zhang Xianzhong did not let them out, and kept them under house arrest to watch his killing.When Zhang Xianzhong became the emperor, he naturally wanted to recruit talents and recruit talents, so as to consolidate his power.So, he went around posting lists, advertising in Sichuan, and wanted to select talents.Sichuan has always been a place where talented people gather, and with such a good thing, responders naturally flock to it.Talented people who took the exam rushed to Chengdu day and night from all directions, hoping to be admitted and get a half-official position.On the day of the exam, because a student who took the exam offended Zhang Xianzhong, he felt very unhappy, and immediately roared at the examination room and ordered to kill all the more than 17,000 talented people who came to take the exam.As a result, on the empty dam in the Qingyang Palace in Chengdu, an unprecedented large-scale massacre of scholars occurred.These students, where do they have the power to fight back, the butcher's knife flashed, and immediately the head fell to the ground, and blood splashed.Some students wanted to run, but before they could run ten meters, their legs were cut off, and then they were dissected, and the mixed blood plasma of the internal organs flowed all over the ground, and they were killed in pain.Some students scolded and were immediately cut off their tongues, scalped off, and then killed.Some students were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but before he could finish his begging for mercy, he was poked to death.Some students helped to slaughter their own kind in order to survive, but as a result, he still did not escape the catastrophe and was still killed.This massacre of the students lasted for most of the day, and the Qingyang Palace was full of blood, filled with a strong bloody atmosphere, and the corpses that were slaughtered were piled up into a huge mountain.Later, when the scene of the massacre was cleaned up, the brushes and stone inkstones alone were piled up like a huge tent.As a result of Zhang Xianzhong's massacre of his students, Sichuan's intellectual circles were depressed and almost barren after a few years.Two Western missionaries recalled the scene: "Flesh and blood flew and died in agony. ”Zhang Xianzhong put the two Western missionaries under house arrest and often listened to their preaching, but Zhang Xianzhong did not derive any love from Catholicism, but became even more brutal.In Zhang Xianzhong's view, what he slaughtered was nothing more than thoughtless pigs, dogs, chickens and sheep.To be continued.
