Chapter 327 Psychological Warfare
Dorgon truly lived up to his reputation as a powerful and ruthless leader. It could be said that in Wang Wenzhou's time, the Qing Dynasty was established by Dorgon.
Dorgon remained calm in the face of the unexpected turn of events. After a moment's thought, he said, "Dodo, immediately send people to spread the word that Wang Wenzhou's two concubines and one sworn brother will be executed by slow slicing at noon today in the ruins of the Great Qing Gate."
Dorgon frowned and said, "Brother..."
Dorgon quickly said, "Dodo, I know what you want to say. I just said that if either of us backs down, we will lose everything. So we must let Wang Wenzhou know that we dare to torture his wives and concubines, so that he will be afraid! Wang Wenzhou was willing to sacrifice so many people to save his wives and concubines, which shows the importance of his wives and concubines in his heart."
"Alright! I'll go take care of it right away!" Dodo hurriedly went out.
"Hoo..." Dorgon took a deep breath. Although he was trying to persuade Dodo, he was also very upset. His only daughter had been kidnapped by Wang Wenzhou. Although he had the upper hand, if his daughter died, even if he killed Wang Wenzhou, it would be of no use!
Endure! You must endure! Dorgon muttered to himself, "The word 'endure' is like a knife above one's head; if you can't endure it, it will pierce your heart, and you will lose everything."
"Report!" At this moment, a guard came to report: "Your Highness, an envoy sent by Wang Wenzhou requests an audience."
"Alright! I'll be there shortly!" Dorgon stood up, walked to the bronze mirror, and looked at his flustered reflection. He quickly took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and then arrived at the gate of the palace.
Hero of the Ming Dynasty 001, carrying a wooden box, waited at the door. Upon seeing Dorgon appear, he hurriedly said, "Why are you so late? I've been waiting for so long! Don't you know that Lord Wang is waiting for me to go back and deliver a message? If I keep Lord Wang waiting and he gets upset, I'll be in trouble!"
Dorgon shook his head with a wry smile. Wang Wenzhou, that madman, didn't have many normal people under his command.
"What does Wang Wenzhou want to say?" Dorgon asked.
The heroic martyr of the Ming Dynasty casually opened the wooden box.
"Don't move! Don't move!" Dorgon's guards immediately tensed up. Who knew if that madman Wang Wenzhou would send someone to throw bombs?
001 quickly picked up the wooden box and said, "Don't be afraid, it's just two children's fingers, not a human head, what are you afraid of?"
Dorgon's heart raced; he was truly terrified—the fingers in the wooden box belonged to his daughter!
Dorgon feigned composure and said calmly, "Wang Wenzhou is getting more and more playful. This isn't child's play. Throwing two fingers at me like that, is that interesting? Whose fingers are they?"
"Hmm?" 001 suddenly fell silent.
"Ah!" Dorgon felt a sharp pain in his heart. He thought 001 was silent because he dared not say it was his daughter's finger, fearing that he would take his anger out on him and cause him to bleed on the spot. Dorgon smiled bitterly. Even if it really was E'er's finger, even if I secretly vomited blood, I would not say a single harsh word to you.
Dorgon, unable to bear the agonizing wait any longer, finally asked, "Whose is it?"
001 said with a hint of apology, "Should I chop you up or avoid you? That's pretty much the gist of it, like he's some kind of little prince."
"Phew..." Dorgon breathed a deep sigh of relief. He felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders. It wasn't E'er's fault; that was wonderful. But then he felt a little embarrassed, after all, Dodo was his beloved younger brother.
"Sigh..." Dorgon sighed with a bitter smile. In this world, for parents, no matter who it is, no one is closer than their own biological children.
Dorgon said coldly, "What else did Wang Wenzhou have to say?"
001 mimicked Wang Wenzhou's tone, cursing and saying, "Our Lord Wang said, Dorgon, you better listen up. Your baby and daughter are in my hands. If you dare to touch a single hair on my baby's head, I'll immediately have ten thousand men gang rape your wife and children."
Dorgon feigned calmness and said, "Go back and tell Wang Wenzhou that at noon, I executed his wives, concubines, and sworn brother by slow slicing in the ruins of the Great Qing Gate. If he wants me to stop, he should surrender. I am still young; I can remarry and have more children. Now get out!"
001 tossed the box in his hand, kicked it, and said, "I'm leaving! Maybe I'll come back later, but don't keep me waiting so long next time!"
Dorgon shook his head with a wry smile, quickly ordering the guards to put the box away and strictly forbidding anyone from telling Dodo about this. Dorgon was genuinely afraid that Dodo would lose his temper and give up first, which would mean they were doomed to lose and would be at Wang Wenzhou's mercy.
A moment later, 001 turned back and saw Dorgon. He immediately knelt down and, imitating Wang Wenzhou's tone, cried and said, "Our Lord Wang says, Lord Dorgon, please don't hurt my babies."
After saying that, 001 stood up, wiped away his tears, and cursed, "Dorgon, you're awesome! Trying to play acting games with me? You're still in kindergarten! Dorgon, listen to me, I'm younger than you. I haven't been playing with those two babies for very long, so I don't have a deep relationship with them yet."
001 suddenly knelt down again, crying and pleading, "Lord Dorgon, please! You can't touch my baby! He's my precious darling! Let's talk this over. You release my baby, and I'll release yours, okay?"
Just as Dorgon was about to speak, 001 stood up again, pointing at Dorgon and cursing, "Dorgon, you son of a bitch! I still have 3 babies with me and 7 babies at home, and you've only captured 2 of my babies. Even if you kill them all, I still have 10 babies. I don't care! You son of a bitch! Goodbye!"
Dorgon gazed thoughtfully at 001's retreating figure as 001 gradually disappeared from his sight.
"Hahaha!" Dorgon laughed heartily, suddenly feeling a sense of regret for not having met Wang Wenzhou sooner. Dorgon thought that if he and Wang Wenzhou weren't enemies, they could definitely become good friends.
Wang Wenzhou's seemingly erratic words just now actually had a deeper meaning. Wang Wenzhou was expressing to him his inner torment, and also to him: I know you feel the same way.
Dorgon was deeply moved, as if he had gone mad. He wanted to persevere, but he was also reluctant to give up, fearing that his loved ones would be harmed.
"Sigh..." Dorgon sighed deeply. Wang Wenzhou was truly a formidable opponent. His mind was completely seen through by Wang Wenzhou, but Wang Wenzhou acted like a madman, and Dorgon simply couldn't guess what Wang Wenzhou was thinking.
Dorgon pondered for a moment, then reassured himself, "Don't be afraid! At worst, we can exchange prisoners."
Wang Wenzhou was also in a dilemma. Although he had taken more hostages, the loss of any of his babies would be irreparable, even if he killed all the hostages he held.
Wang Wenzhou, brandishing his sword, pointed at the row of naked girls in front of him and said viciously, "That madman Dorgon doesn't want to exchange hostages! You're all so ugly, all of you combined aren't as pretty as my baby! Tell me, who should I kill first?"
