Chapter 891: Debasement (10th Update)
Prisoners! ”
Zhu Cihong waved his hand at the huge sea, and the huge sea with a sad face on the side immediately walked to the side of the high platform and shouted to the soldiers of the expeditionary force below.
The officers and men of the expeditionary force immediately retreated to both sides of the road, and after giving way to the road, a dozen prisoner carts creaked from the rear, and each prisoner cart had a Rakshasa locked in it.
The first one was the last tsar of the Rakshasa Kingdom, Alexei I.
Alexei has been in Liu Hongji's military camp for more than half a year, this person is frowning, and his clothes are very decent, if the Rakshasa people can speak the Great Ming language, there will definitely be people shouting, Your Majesty is still fat.
Alexei is indeed fat, although he is a captive, but because he is the emperor of the Rakshasa country, Liu Hongjian not only did not neglect him, but also raised him with good food and drink along the way.
The only ban was not to leave the cell, and Alexei had his own tent during the march, which of course was guarded by soldiers around the tent.
Even during the march, there were carriages that blocked the wind, and due to the shortage of covered carriages in the army, Lao Gu, who accompanied him for a long time, stayed in the same carriage with Alexei.
Lao Gu also had a task of monitoring Alexei to prevent the guy from committing suicide, and when he was in the camp tent, the soldiers in charge of defense would also open the tent every few moments.
It's just that to the disappointment of the soldiers, this Alexei is a soft egg who has long lost the courage to commit suicide.
The reason why he is so cautious is that Liu Hong is gradually worried that this guy will not be able to bring back the Ming Dynasty and go to see God, and the accompanying captives include several city lords of Rakshasa cities, as well as members and ministers of the Rakshasa National Assembly.
In fact, there were more than 30 captives, but only these 20 people were able to come to Daming safely, for a very simple reason, except for Alexei, who enjoyed VIP captivity, other Rakshasa officials did not.
They had to be locked in prison cars, creaking and jolting for almost half a year, and several elderly Rakshasa captives froze to death before they could leave the city of Moscow.
"This is the Tsar of the Rakshasa Kingdom, that is, their emperor, Alexei I, who provoked the war between the Rakshasa Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty.
Millions of people died as a result of this, and if you add the Chahar Khanate, an ally of the Ming Dynasty, at least 1.4 million people died as a result! ”
Liu Hongjian stood in front of the stage, pointed at Alexei, and shouted to the officials and people in the audience.
"Kill the culprit!"
"Punish him!"
"Long live Your Majesty!"
"King Qin is mighty!"
"Behead the Tsar!"
……
As soon as Liu Hong's voice fell, the people in the capital began to criticize Alexei.
Many old residents of the capital knew that there would be a ceremony to sacrifice prisoners when the army triumphed, and when they signaled that they would come in the morning, they would prepare a lot of rotten vegetable leaves, eggshells that had stinked after eating eggs, and other filth, and began to throw them at the captives.
This frightened Wu Gang, the prefect of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, this captive was not an ordinary captive, but the emperor of another powerful country, and even as a victorious country, he should be given due respect.
And Zhu Cihong hasn't spoken yet, who dares to be so presumptuous?
Wu Gang ordered his subordinates to stop the people from throwing rotten vegetable leaves and rotten egg shells, and at the same time, he slipped out the old fritters that threw the most fiercely and sent them to the prison of the Soldiers and Horses.
The prison of the Terracotta Division is different from that of the bigwigs of the Criminal Department, and they are generally locked up with some green skins who are not guilty of petty theft, and these old fritters are estimated to be clear in their hearts.
was arrested and shouted slogans such as killing the culprit, long live Your Majesty, and King Qin's might, which made Wu Gang cry and laugh.
Zhu Cihong waved his hand to signal the excited people to stop shouting, and the people saw that when the Son of Heaven stood up, they naturally obeyed the order, and it didn't take long for the noisy Anding Gate like a vegetable market to be quiet.
"Богваснакажет......" Alexei seemed to recognize Zhu Cihong as the emperor of the Ming Empire, and shouted at the high platform in the prisoner car.
Zhu Cihong and Liu Hongjian didn't understand what this guy said, and the Ministry of Rites Shangshu immediately called for an interpreter who understood Rakshasa language, and after the translation, he learned that Alexei was saying that God would punish them.
It's just that Zhu Cihong doesn't believe in God, and he doesn't know who God is, so he doesn't take it seriously.
Generally, if the crowd is agitated after the surrender of prisoners, the emperor will immediately order an on-the-spot execution to vent the anger of the people, but Zhu Cihong still hesitated.
As the emperor of the victorious country, he had absolute power to dispose of his captives, but he wanted to hear Liu Hongji's opinion.
"Liu Qing, what do you think should be done with this captive?"
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if the emperor does not kill the emperor, he has lost his country and all his people, and if he is willing to submit, he might as well spare his life." Liu Hong gradually finished speaking, and walked to Zhu Cihong's side and whispered a few words.
Zhu Cihong was also happy when he heard this, and immediately said to the translator: "You tell him that kneeling down to this me can spare him immortal and gain freedom, and if he refuses to kneel, God will punish him."
And God is the devil's head in the hands of the executioner. ”
The interpreter frowned when he heard this, and then he trotted down the high platform and told Alexei Zhu Cihong's original words in Rakshasa language.
Alexei frowned when he heard this, but after all, he didn't kneel, and Zhu Cihong was not angry, he felt that this was just Liu Qing's prank.
It was the first time he had heard of the idea that the emperor would not kill the emperor, but he didn't care if he killed the emperor of the Rakshasa country, the Rakshasa country had been destroyed, and the only hundreds of thousands of people had scattered and moved out to various parts of Europa, and even if he returned to Moscow, no one would help him restore the country.
Moreover, it is thousands of miles away from Moscow, and there is no way back on your own.
Huge Hai naturally heard what Zhu Cihong said to the interpreter, and saw that this Rakshasa Maozi did not kneel, so he ordered the executioner to do it in a hurry.
The prisoner cart was quickly opened, and the executioner's ghost-headed broadsword glistened in the sunlight, and with a command, the executioners raised their knives and beheaded all the Rakshasa captives except Alexei on the spot.
Alexei steadied the strong smell of blood, and watched his former courtiers die one after another, and the tragic situation directly not only stunned him, but also made him incontinent.
The executioner slapped Alexei's face with the back of the knife to wake him up, and Alexei couldn't stand up at all because of his weak legs, and he glanced at his colleague who was lying in a pool of blood, and knelt down in front of Zhu Cihong while shouting.
‘Яготовнаколени,пожалуйста,дайтемнесвободу! ’
“Яготовнаколени,пожалуйста,дайтемнесвободу!”
"Your Majesty, he said he was willing to kneel and hoped that you would give him freedom." The interpreter immediately translated Alexei's words to Zhu Cihong and Liu Hong.
"Hahahaha!" Zhu Cihong smiled happily when he heard this.
There is nothing more pride than the emperor of a country kneeling down to him, and so does Zhu Cihong.
"The emperor does not kill the emperor, God has the virtue of a good life, I know that you are lost, I amnesty you, and named you a disobedient baron, and give you a small courtyard!"
