Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Dorgon was so anxious that he ordered the Han army's flag artillerymen to kill Liu Zongmin!

Dashun's last hope of a comeback was dashed.

The artillerymen of the Qing army smashed the overwhelming cannonballs at Liu Zongmin's location.

The arrow headed by Liu Zongmin suddenly suffered heavy casualties and the formation was in chaos.

At this moment, a flying arrow penetrated Liu Zongmin's chest.

After Liu Zongmin was seriously injured, Li Zicheng was shocked and rushed into the battle in person, snatched Liu Zongmin back, and then ordered the entire army to retreat.

……

In the battle at Shanhaiguan, even though Zhu Youjian tried his best, he did not hesitate to support Liu Fangliang and Yuan Zong.

Want to take the opportunity to weaken the Manchu Qing...

But because of the rebellion of the gentry, they miscalculated.

The reason for Zhu Youjian's miscalculation was not that Liu Fangliang was incompetent!

But...

Li Zicheng did not appoint his nephew Li Guo to stay in Xuzhou and take charge of the defense of Xuzhou.

Instead, Wu Su was appointed as the defense envoy of Xu Huai.

However, the defense envoy had only been in office for less than a month when he was hosted by Lu Zhenfei, the governor of Huai'an from the Nanming court next door, who hosted a banquet in his honor.

These two are old friends!

Wu Su was also a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty and had a fairly good personal relationship with Lu Zhenfei.

Wu Su did not doubt his presence and went to the banquet happily.

Unexpectedly, before the banquet was even eaten, Lu Zhenfei was kidnapped to Nanjing and killed.

……

It stands to reason that these civil servants must have a sense of collegiality among themselves. They all have a large number of friends of the same age, hometown, and subject. They are deeply involved with each other. They shouldn't be in such a life-and-death relationship!

But because, Lu Zhenfei is in trouble!

Lu Zhenfei's political status was unstable at this time. As a member of Donglin, he supported King Fu Zhu Yousong in the major event of Nanming's establishment. Therefore, he was regarded as a traitor by Donglin and Fushe.

At this moment, an opportunity appeared in front of Lu Zhenfei——

Li Zicheng ordered Lu Bizhou, who was originally the deputy envoy to Henan in the Ming Dynasty and was appointed the military envoy to Huai'an after the surrender, to come to Huai'an to seize territory.

Dong Xueli was appointed as the defense envoy to Suqian (the one entrusted to Erchen Zhuan).

Wu Su also came at this time.

Politically, Lu Zhenfei offended his colleagues from Donglin and Fushe. At the same time, he was also in a difficult situation in the officialdom.

Liu Ji, the uncle of Chengyi, was also Liu Bowen, and Liu Kongzhen, the uncle of Chengyi, succeeded him in the late Ming Dynasty. (This man is a typical villain)

Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng were isolated and helpless in the court, so Liu Kongzhen came over and recommended his confidant Tian Yang to them.

Let Tian Yang take Lu Zhenfei's position.

Therefore, at this time, Lu Zhenfei lost the trust of his allies politically, and in the officialdom, he was coveted by others.

Lu Zhenfei is in urgent need of political capital.

There is a saying that when you feel sleepy, you touch the pillow, and when you are hungry, pie falls from the sky.

Lu Zhenfei’s pie is here!

Fortunately, the Dashun officials sent by Li Zicheng to his surroundings were all generals from the Ming Dynasty, and they all knew Lu Zhenfei.

So, during a banquet, it was unknown whether they drank or not, and Lu Bizhou and Wu Su were captured.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Dong Xueli ran away before he could reach Lu Zhenfei's house.

But something went wrong while capturing the two of them.

Lu Bizhou came from a military background, and he was able to serve as deputy envoy to Henan, so he had some skills.

After his fierce resistance, Lu Zhenfei ordered him to be chopped into pieces on the spot.

……

Afterwards, Lu Zhenfei arranged a play, saying that he captured two people alive in a battle and beat Dong Xueli to the point where he fled...

Lu Zhenfei reported this great achievement in order to stabilize his position.

This is truly a moment of glory and wealth, and a dead Taoist friend will no longer die a poor Taoist!

However, military merit requires living people!

Lu Bizhou has turned into a puddle of mud!

You can't hand over a pile of minced meat and say it's Lu Bizhou's body...

Who believes it!

Especially at this critical moment when people are coveting his position!

……

Lu Zhenfei thought about it and arranged a life-or-death drama involving archery on the school field:

He asked the sergeant to shoot three arrows, which hit Lu Bizhou.

Lu Zhenfei said that this was God's will, and you, Lu Bizhou, had committed a heinous crime!

So Lu Bi was executed in Zhou Dynasty.

……

(This paragraph in the scholar's account is contradictory. It is said that Lu Zhenfei captured two people in a formation and then convicted them by shooting arrows at the sergeant.

However, the account about Wu Su also states that he was captured while attending a banquet.

Which one is true?

Don't panic!

The ins and outs of the matter can be understood after some careful consideration.

I would like to ask, who has greater military merit is the living Lu Bi Zhou, or the dead Lu Bi Zhou with no intact body?

In this case, why did Lu Zhenfei resort to capital punishment in private?

Is he the kind of person who values ​​the justice of the country more than glory and wealth?

Don’t forget, in history, Lu Zhenfei saw that something was wrong, so after Emperor Longwu was killed, Lu Zhenfei, as a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and the chief minister of the cabinet, immediately learned Donglin’s usual method of restoring society— —in seclusion.

From this point of view, capturing at a banquet is the most real thing. )

……

After Lu Zhenfei was done, he whipped Wu Su eighty times, put him in a prison car, and sent him to Nanjing.

Why the eighty flogging?

This is not a whip, but a military stick!

The eighty-year army baton has come down, and even if you don't die, you have to shed your skin. Can you still speak?

In this way, Lu Zhenfei's military merit is not just how he repays it, but what it looks like!

It can be said that by this time, Lu Zhenfei had completely abandoned his political allies and bet his money on Ma Shiying.

By chance, Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng were looking for the charges against Donglin and Fushe.

With Zhou Zhong, a talented scholar who dared to draft Li Zicheng's enthronement edict and praised him as rare in the sky and unique on earth, Ruan Dacheng's origins came to light.

Ruan Dacheng and Ma Shiying started a "favorable case" on the grounds that the restoration of society was without status.

That is, the party case against Donglin and Fushe.

Wu Su tragically became a sacrificer to the flag...

Forget it, Wu Su was abandoned from the market together with Zhou Zhong and Guang Shiheng.

(Zhou Zhong: The great literary giant of Jiangsu Jintan who rode a horse and passed in front of Chongzhen’s body with his head held high.

He also drafted an edict for Li Zicheng's accession to the throne, saying that Emperor Chongzhen was "a man who gave the headship to a single man, and all the surnames returned to his heart."

He praised Li Zicheng for being "comparable to Yao and Shun in martial arts, and capable of fighting without any shame". )

(Guang Shiheng: Tongcheng’s great writer, who knelt down to ask for surrender when facing Li Zicheng’s soldiers.

These two people are both Fushe scholars.

These two people are also traitors. )

Even after Wu Su died, he still had to be humiliated and put among these people...

The case is actually not that big.

The number of gentry killed was not large.

However, the initiation of the case became the trigger for Hongguang Chao's fig leaf to be torn apart.

At this point, the entire Nanming was completely plunged into party strife.

Internal fighting became the root cause of Nanming's demise.

(It is impossible to deny Huang Zongxi’s literary status, but if we look closely at the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, it is really difficult to describe what he did.

The unity of the party and the opposition of different parties was vividly demonstrated in him. Since then, Huang Zongxi has been fighting for Zhou Zhong and Guangshi...)
