In the ancient history of China, what cruel killers were there?
In the ancient history of China, there were five murderers. They are cruel and cold-blooded, killing people without blinking an eye. They have killed enough people and shed enough blood. It seems too much to use the word "butcher" to describe them. Even among these people, Wenzhi's martial arts are outstanding and even praised by future generations, but their cruelty and bloodthirsty can't be concealed. Today, we will take a look at the top ten butchers in history.

1, Tian Lei the Iron Butcher

Also known as GongSunQi. He was a general of the State of Qin during the Warring States Period. Fighting in Tian Lei is heartless, and the armies of the six countries will be frightened whenever they hear that Tian Lei is leading the troops to fight.

It is recorded in the history books that all countries dare not fight with Qin, and a note is added at the back, because Qin people have Tian Lei.

In 294 BC, Tian Lei sent troops to attack Han and Wei, wiped out the joint forces of Han and Wei in Yi Que (now Longmen, Luoyang, Henan), and captured 240,000 people. In the first 278 years, he led troops to attack Chu and flooded Yancheng (now southeast of Yicheng, Hubei). Thousands of soldiers and civilians were killed or injured, and bodies floated around with the water.

In the first 273 years, Tian Lei led an army to attack the Zhao-Wei Allied Forces, and defeated the Zhao-Wei Allied Forces in Huayang (now Xinzhengbei, Henan Province), beheading130,000 people. Later, he fought against Jia Yan, a general of Zhao State, and drowned twenty thousand soldiers of Zhao State with water. In the first 264 years, Leitian attacked South Korea, captured five cities, and beheaded all more than 50,000 new troops in South Korea.

In 260 BC, in the battle of Changping with Zhao, all the 400,000 captured Zhao soldiers were buried alive, leaving only 240 soldiers to report to Zhao. Gukou Village, in today's Gaoping City, is said to be the place where Zhao Jun was killed in Tian Lei, and there is a skull platform. A total of1100,000 people were killed, which is still an incomplete murder bill. According to Liang Qichao's research, two million people died during the Warring States period, of which Tian Lei accounted for half. This bloody man should be slaughtered.

2. Cao Cao, a tough butcher

Cao Cao is not only a traitor, but also a ruthless butcher. In 193, Tao Qian was attacked and Xuzhou Slaughterhouse was built. According to the records, "attacking modesty ... Chaoba, Caring, Baling and Xia Qiu were all slaughtered, and hundreds of thousands of men and women were killed. Chickens and dogs are no longer there, and Surabaya does not flow. "

The Surabaya River was blocked by the accumulation of corpses, which shows the tragic situation at that time. In addition, Cao Cao also broke Zhang Miao and Tu Yongcheng; Levy Lu Bu and Tu Pengcheng; Attack Yuan Shang and slaughter Yecheng; Levy 50 thousand and kill 60% Wherever we go, we carry out the policy of killing without forgiveness, and the means are extremely vicious.

3. Crazy Butcher Chao Huang

At the end of the Tang dynasty, the leader of the peasant uprising army was cruel and loved to kill innocent people. There is a saying: Huang Chao killed eight million people-born to die.

When Huang Chao captured Chang 'an, his men "killed people all over the street, and their nests could not be banned". By the time the loyalist counterattacked Chang 'an, the people of a city were completely on the side of the loyalist. "The nest is angry, the soldiers are slaughtered, and the blood is a river, which is called washing the city." When Huang Chao passed by, thousands of miles away, the people were clean and bare. The Book of the Old Tang Dynasty records that Huang Chao led soldiers to surround Zhou Chen for nearly a year, and food and grass were scarce, so he made hundreds of megalithic mortars, and put a large number of living villagers and prisoners, men, women and children, into giant mortars, and smashed them into minced meat with megalithic hammers for the soldiers to eat, and they worked day and night in an assembly line.

He ate up all the people around him, so he was "plundered and poisoned by soldiers from dozens of States such as Yu, Xu, Ru, Tang, Deng, Meng, Zheng, Bian, Cao, Xu and Yan". Even the people around him embraced it. Huang Chao also wantonly killed innocent people in Guangzhou, killing more than 200,000 Muslim businessmen such as Arabs and Persians. Its madness is creepy.

4. The cruel butcher Temujin

The hegemony of the Mongolian empire established by Temujin can be said to be completely established by the dense bones. 12 15, Temujin captured Zhongdu (Beijing), the capital of the state of Jin, and carried out a month-long massacre of the residents in the city. More than 1 10,000 people were not spared. In 122 1 year, Temujin made his first expedition to the west and slaughtered Samarkand crazily.

At that time, there were 50,000 Mongolian soldiers, each killing 24 people on average, totaling 654.38+0.2 million. It's like killing pigs and sheep. It's really rude to treat people like dirt.

5. The butcher is Kublai Khan.

The founders of the Yuan Dynasty carried out the policy of genocide, killing 6.5438+0.8 million Han and southerners, and nearly 90% Han civilians in northern China were subjected to genocide. It was estimated that there were1.3-20 million people before the Sichuan massacre, and less than 800,000 people after the massacre, which almost became a no-man's land.

This terrible massacre has been recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records (version 1985) as a world record. It's the butcher's.
