Chapter Eighty-Six: Heated Debate 1

After nightfall, Zhang Erzhong really couldn't stand it in the city, he actually understood better than anyone that as soon as the Dazhong Army came, it was impossible for him to hold Tongzhou City, and Tang Tong in the north of the city had sent someone to tell him clearly, he Tang Tong and his generals all agreed to surrender to the Dazhong Army, and asked Zhang Erzhong to make a decision, it was best to surrender the Dazhong Army with them, so as not to kill the soldiers and civilians in Tongzhou.

After Zhang Erzhong learned about it, he knew that Tongzhou was completely finished, no matter how loyal he was to the Ming Dynasty, but it could not be denied that the timely arrival of the Dazhong Army saved the soldiers and civilians in the entire Tongzhou City, otherwise, it would not be these Jiannu Tartars who were slaughtered at this time, and it was not possible to do this Jiannu is attacking the city as they said, massacring the soldiers and civilians in the city in Tongzhou City, and ruining the women in the city!

So Zhang Erzhong sighed, didn't say much to Tang Tong's subordinates, and took his two sons to the city tower alone, watched the scene of the massacre of Jiannu by the Dazhong army, and after nightfall, Zhang Erzhong ordered to open the south gate of the city, and walked out of Tongzhou City alone with his big seal and two sons, and made their identities clear to the Dazhong soldiers outside the city, and asked to see Xiao Tianjian, the emperor of Dazhong.

So after Xiao Tianjian got the news, he ordered the generals to bring Zhang Erzhong and his son into his big tent, Zhang Erzhong and his son were brought into Xiao Tianjian's Chinese army camp by the soldiers, only to find that although Xiao Tianjian was already the emperor of the Great Middle Dynasty at this time, but his big tent was not only relatively large, but there was no sense of luxury, even in his Chinese army camp, not a single woman saw it, only some military appearance and sturdy Yu Linwei were protecting Xiao Tianjian and serving Xiao Tianjian, The furnishings in the tent are also very simple, and nothing can be seen in the slightest extravagance.

So Zhang Erzhong couldn't help sighing, if you just look at this seemingly simple big tent, he really can't believe that this is the big tent of the Dazhong Emperor, the furnishings and layouts here and the items, even the hall of his Ming official, who has been declining, is not as good, thinking about Xiao Tianjian, a person of such status, can also be so self-disciplined, Zhang Erzhong admires it very much in his heart, and secretly says No wonder the Dazhong Army is so strong and incomparable, this Xiao Tianjian's success is inevitable.

Their Ming officialdom is too rotten, before Zhang Erzhong left Beijing to go to Tongzhou, he saw those colleagues in the Beijing Division, on the one hand, they were in a panic, but they were still enjoying their luxurious life, the Ming Dynasty was about to die, but most of these so-called colleagues, but most of them still guarded their family property, and refused to take it out, the defenders of the city would be short of food and salary, they didn't care, or admit death and felt that this was not their business, and he Zhu Youzhen was the emperor, so he should pay for it, The soldiers and generals who defended the city complained about it, and it was really strange that the Ming Dynasty would not die.

After entering the big tent, Zhang Erzhong looked up and saw Xiao Tianjian sitting behind the big case with a helmet and armor, and Xiao Tianjian was now in a golden helmet and golden armor, and there was an immediate momentum of not being angry and arrogant towards the top one, and his eyes flashed with a gaze that seemed to penetrate people's hearts, making Zhang Erzhong almost unbearable, and almost knelt down.

"Who is coming! Why didn't you kneel down when you saw our emperor? Yu Linwei, who was in the tent, saw that Zhang Erzhong and his two sons were standing in the middle of the big tent after entering the big tent, but they didn't mean to kneel, so someone immediately shouted angrily.

Zhang Erzhong's sons had never seen such a big scene, and although they didn't agree with Xiao Tianjian's identity as the emperor at first, but after they really saw Xiao Tianjian, they felt Xiao Tianjian's momentum of not being angry and arrogant, and he was high up in the upper position.

And Zhang Erzhong heard the sound of the two sons kneeling, turned his head and glanced at the two sons slightly, and saw that the two sons were bowing their heads and did not dare to raise their heads, so he sighed again.

"Under Zhang Erzhong, he is the right attendant of the Ming Army, the old man only knows that there is only the Ming Emperor in the world, but he doesn't know what other emperors there are, so this official can't kneel!" Zhang Erzhong controlled his emotions, tensed his legs hard, and stood as firm as he could, so that he could not withstand the kind of coercion that Xiao Tianjian passed on to him, and suddenly his legs fell to his knees.

"Presumptuous! Are you looking for death? Come on, break this old man's leg and see if he still kneels! Tietou heard Zhang Erzhong make such nonsense in front of Xiao Tianjian, so he immediately became angry and shouted loudly.

Those Yu Linwei in the tent couldn't see anyone daring to be disrespectful to Xiao Tianjian, so immediately Yu Linwei flew out, and wanted to discount Zhang Erzhong's leg to see if Zhang Erzhong dared to make a big deal here.

But Xiao Tianjian snorted, and those Yu Linwei saw that Xiao Tianjian seemed to be dissatisfied with their actions, so they all froze and didn't dare to pounce on Zhang Erzhong again.

Xiao Tianjian looked at Zhang Erzhong, nodded slightly, and then asked Zhang Erzhong with a cold face: "Are you really not afraid of death?" ”

Zhang Erzhong stubbornly stiffened his neck and replied: "What are you afraid of when your husband dies? ”

Xiao Tianjian looked at the two of his sons kneeling behind Zhang Erzhong, and then asked Zhang Erzhong: "Then aren't you afraid that I will kill your son?" Or will it destroy your full door? ”

Xiao Tianjian's words suddenly scared Zhang Erzhong's two sons enough, and they quickly kowtowed to the ground one by one, but they didn't dare to speak, now they actually know what Zhang Erzhong is going to do, but Zhang Erzhong stimulated Xiao Tianjian so much that his two sons were at a loss, in front of Xiao Tianjian, they didn't dare to say that Zhang Erzhong was not, so they could only beg their father in their hearts not to go crazy at this time.

Zhang Erzhong's body trembled slightly, after all, he was in his sixties, and his psychological pressure was very high at this time, and the nervousness made him tremble slightly, but he gritted his teeth and insisted: "Of course I'm afraid!" The beast still has the feeling of licking the calf, and the official is a human being, how can he not feel sorry for his son? ”

Xiao Tianjian showed a playful smile on his face, leaned forward slightly and asked Zhang Erzhong, "Then I don't know how Xiao can make you kneel willingly?" ”

Zhang Erzhong raised his head and looked directly into Xiao Tianjian's eyes, and said loudly: "It's actually very easy to want this official to kneel, as long as you promise not to kill a single army and a single person in Tongzhou City, then even if this official kneels for you, what's the matter?" ”

Xiao Tianjian laughed out loud after hearing this, but suddenly he stopped laughing and shook his head at Zhang Erzhong and said, "No!" I can't promise you! You're asking too much! I can't do that! ”

After hearing this, Zhang Erzhong's eyes immediately widened angrily, glared at Xiao Tianjian and asked loudly, "Haven't you killed enough?" You've killed so many people outside the city! Do you also want to be like Jiannu and slaughter the soldiers and civilians in Tongzhou City? ”

Xiao Tianjian leaned back, leaned on and raised his hand and shook his fingers and smiled: "You, an old guy surnamed Zhang, are simply wrong in your proposition!" Did I kill someone outside the city again? Can I kill someone? Are you dizzy and can't see clearly? ”

Zhang Erzhong said angrily and loudly: "From the afternoon to now, you have been killing people under the city, and you are still killing people outside until now, is it because I am old and dizzy or you have no eyes?" ”

Xiao Tianjian's face sank, and he slapped the table and shouted, "Shut up!" ”

As soon as Yu Linwei heard that the old guy dared to say that Xiao Tianjian had no eyes, he drew his knife and scolded: "The old dog is looking for death", so he pounced on it again and threw this old thing to feed the dog.

"Stand down! It's not your turn! Good! The surname is Zhang, you are enough to bring seeds! I, Xiao, admire you, Da Ming is still a bit of a backbone official in the end! You're one of them, too!

Since you old fellow are talking about it today, then I'll argue with you! You call me murder! Then I ask you, can the ones killed outside be called people? The people we kill in the Dazhong army are all Tartars, and what they do is what beasts do, can they be considered human? Those people don't deserve to live in this world, how many of our Han people they have killed, and now it's time for them to pay off their debts, but you, old guy, do you think I killed the wrong one? You still say that they are human, whether it is me Xiao Tianjian who has no eyes, or you old guy who is dizzy, you say it yourself! Xiao Tianjian was furious, waved his hand to drive away those Yu Lin Wei, pointed at Zhang Erzhong and shouted at him.

Zhang Erzhong was scolded by Xiao Tianjian, and he really felt that he was poor in words, they were Ming people, and there were really few people who regarded Jiannu as a person, in their eyes, Jiannu was indeed a bunch of beasts, a bunch of beasts, Xiao Tianjian commanded his soldiers to kill Tartars, at the beginning, even he looked at it and felt very happy, Xiao Tianjian's hatred of Tartars is not a recent thing, as early as many years ago, Xiao Tianjian publicly said that Tartars are the enemies of the Han people, and when Chongzhen was eleven years old, Xiao Tianjian did not take advantage of the great opportunity, Unilaterally stopped the war with the imperial court, and led the troops north to fight against the Tatars, this matter is known to everyone in the world, and he Zhang Erzhong also talked about it to his son at home at that time, and applauded Xiao Tianjian.

But needless to say, the results are as we all know that the imperial court regarded Xiao Tianjian as a confidant from top to bottom, not only did not let the Ming army cooperate with the Xingtian army to fight against the Tartars, but did some things behind the Xingtian army everywhere, and finally forced Xiao Tianjian to lead his troops back to Henan, and as a result, the Jiannu army attacked Shandong, and after plundering, he went out of the customs safely.

Now Xiao Tianjian is really happy to kill these Tartars, being scolded by Xiao Tianjian, Zhang Erzhong really has nothing to argue, but after Zhang Erzhong thought about it for a while, he still insisted: "What you said is right, but Tartars can't be counted as people, but killing them is not an exaggeration, this official admires what you did!"

But how can my Ming people be as knowledgeable as the Tartars, such a massacre is obviously a dry heaven and a peace! What's more, among the Jiannu you killed, there are still many of us Han Chinese, who were just forced by the Tartars to serve them! Isn't it possible that you will kill them all? ”
