Chapter three hundred and ninety-first crime of non-war
With the fleeing of reinforcements, Muzhou City was defeated without any attack. When Fang La led the victorious army back, only tens of thousands of people were left in the city.
Fang La took over an empty city without much damage, accompanied by the food, supplies and weapons sent by Wang Xiu on a long journey.
Fang La was an uprising, and he wanted to fight the whole world, not a bandit. After entering Muzhou, Fang La posted a notice to relieve the people, rob the rich and help the poor, confiscate the wealth of the rich and distributed it to the extremely poor people. He also changed the mansion of the rich businessmen into a temporary palace, and established the six departments of the government according to the old system to reduce taxes. All temples and Taoist temples that had not been burned were changed to Daguangming Temple, and encouraged the general public to enter the Guangming Church. All Confucius Temples were abolished and changed to schools to provide for the righteous army and the people to read and read.
Although the various actions and orders were brought out, many scholars were indignant, most of the people in the city were still poor, and these actions were deeply loved by the people.
After gaining a foothold in Muzhou, Fang La officially wore a golden crown and a dragon robe, ascended the throne of the emperor, established the Yongle Dynasty, and changed the year name to the first year of Yongle.
The leaders of the righteous army knelt on the ground, shouting long live the mountain, and all of them were divided into feudals.
-------
At the end of August, the civil and military officials under Fang La dispersed the banquet, and the drunk civil and military officials left one after another.
Fang Qifo wore a Confucian robe, still dressed as a scholar, and brought Fang La, who was already an emperor, to a garden in the city.
The garden scenery is beautiful and not affected by the war. It is just that the original flowers, plants and shrubs were shoveled away, leaving several acres of open space with wooden signs inserted on it, and the soil was flipping through and buried. It is very new, and it is obvious that it has only appeared for a while.
After Fang La's army entered Muzhou City, tens of thousands of rebels rushed into the high gate and occupied the house. They accidentally discovered the garden near the city wall. They asked the people around them and found out the meaning of these wooden signs.
Below this garden, there are all buried officials and soldiers who died when guarding the city. Most of them have no coffins and can only be buried in the grass, leaving behind wooden tombstones, densely buried nearly a thousand people.
When siege, many rebels lost their brothers, relatives and friends. They hated the fierce officers and soldiers on the city walls to the core. After hearing this, many rebel soldiers ran over and wanted to dig up the garden and whip the corpse.
After learning about it, Fang Qifo rushed here, stopped the angry rebels and buried the body back.
Fang La stood in front of the dense tombstones, just looked at it carefully, and silently.
Fang Qifu followed with his hands and his face calmly, walking through small graves:
"What can the Holy One see?"
Fang La is tall and wearing a dragon robe. At this time, she squatted down and looked at the simple wooden board with a line of small words written on it:
The Black Feather Guard, Zhang Meng, died in the battle with the East Gate on August 17th, and killed thirty-two enemies at the age of seventeen.
On the tombstone, there is a black feathered guard tiger head sign, which has a brand new texture. It is obvious that the owner of the sign has only been hung on his body for a day, and there are still blood stains on it.
Fang La squatted on the ground, picked up the tiger head sign and looked at it. There was a tooth mark on it. He could imagine the scene where the owner of the brand was excited after getting the brand, and picked it up and took a bite.
"It's a shame that he died young..."
Those who can be a commander are all people who love talents, and so are Fang La, otherwise he would not have been able to win over so many brothers in front of him and behind him.
Fang Qifo nodded gently and continued walking in front of the tombstone:
"What else does the Holy One see?"
Fang La put down the wooden signs, stood up and walked through the graves. The buried was very hurrying, but meticulous. Each wooden sign was straight, with its name, how many enemies were killed, where to die in battle, age, and who knows its hometown, will also write it on it.
"In a desperate situation, I still don't lose my fighting spirit. I'm a tiger and wolf army."
Fang La's eyes showed a little sigh.
Fang Qifo shook his head and continued walking with Fang La, stopping speaking.
Fang La frowned slightly, knowing what Fang Qifo means, and walked with his hands behind his back and looked over them one by one.
Only after walking through more than a hundred tombstones did Fang La's eyes appear a little solemn. He stopped and squatted down to check carefully:
"Are these inscriptions written by one person?"
Fang Qifo nodded gently and stood peacefully behind Fang La, his voice calmly:
"May the Holy Lord remember the names of his Hundred-My Life Guards?"
"Of course."
"A thousand people?"
"...Impossible. Even if Cao Hua wrote these, he might not remember them all. The government has a list of rosters..."
"But the imperial guards on the top of the city would think that he remembered that Cao Hua wrote the names one by one by one, at least when he wrote them."
Fang La stood in front of the tombstone with his hands behind his back, silent for a long time.
Fang Qifo sighed slowly and looked at the autumn sky:
"Where is our soldiers' bodies?"
Fang La rubbed his fingers and shook his head: "I dug up a mass pit and buried it properly."
"Does the Holy Lord remember who were the dead? Those who were the bravest? Those who were the first to climb the city wall? Those who fought to the death and killed the enemy? Those who killed the most?"
Fang La held his fists with his hands behind his back, stood in the garden full of tombstones silently, and could not answer because he didn't know.
Fang Qi Buddha started walking again, his voice calmly:
"It is said that those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. The Lord has the world in his heart and many followers, so the momentum is like a fire.
But if one day the defeat is defeated, the world will become a luxury. How many people can be left by the Lord? The power is destroyed... like a mountain collapse."
Fang La frowned and thought for a long time before he said in a deep voice:
"I don't know whether Cao Hua will use troops, but he is very good at using people."
"There are advantages to those who can be praised in the world."
Fang Qifo looked at the dense tombstones: "Cao Hua takes defending the city as his mission. Cao Hua feels that he has lost something and makes up for it as much as possible, rather than thinking that this is what the defenders should do. The defenders of Muzhou will naturally repay their favor.
If the rebels who attacked the city died in battle, they would sacrifice their lives bravely to resist Zhao Song, not to die generously for the Holy Lord. The Holy Lord possessed justice but did not capture the hearts of the people."
Fang La nodded slowly, savored it carefully for a long time before saying softly:
"Cao Hua has some tricks, no wonder he was able to defend Muzhou for so long and lead a group of soldiers into a tiger and wolf army. If there were more people like this in the Song Dynasty, we would be afraid it would be difficult to accomplish anything."
Fang Qifo sighed softly and looked at the newly captured Muzhou City:
"The loss of Muzhou is not a crime of war."
