Master Shen was startled, and was about to say something more, but Wang Laoliu pointed at Master Shen and said, "Pull it down and chop it up, and after a while, his Shen's house will be confiscated."

The soldiers who rushed in heard the words, and according to the method they had already discussed, they first blocked Master Shen's mouth, and then two served one, and dragged the struggling Master Shen out.

Only then did Wang Laoliu look at the remaining five people with a sneer, and said with a smile, "Let's discuss it now?"

2 Forty Chapters: Zhang Zhiji Enters the City (4-character chapter)

Master Zhang, Master Li, Master Liu, Master Zhao, and Master Chen all trembled in their hearts.

This Master Shen is the unlucky chicken, and he and others are the monkeys who only want to be frightened.

But can I and others say that I am not scared?

Obviously, no.Just now, Master Shen who acted as if he wasn't scared has already been dragged out, so if he and others say he wasn't scared, what if he is dragged out by these rebels?

At this time, Master Zhang and the others missed the time when Zhixian and the others were still there.

Although the magistrate Zheng Wu is not a good guy, he always cooperates with Jinyiwei's hawks and dogs to urge taxes and food, and he doesn't have a good look at these country gentry and elders. Even if there are villains, he always waits for others to come... …

But at least you don't have to worry about your life, right?

No matter how bad Zheng Wu is, he still has to be reasonable. Everything follows the law of the Ming Dynasty. If compared with it, Master Zhang and others still prefer the original Zheng County Magistrate to invite him and others to drink—— Although most likely to bleed a little.

It's just that it's too late to regret. When the rebels attacked the city, didn't I and others ignore Zhengzhi County's request to borrow food and family members?Now it's my turn, but I can't blame who is here.

It's just that in the current situation, no matter how regretful I and others are, there is no way to recover, so I have to calculate again to see how to bleed myself without killing myself.

After deliberating for a while, Master Zhang said: "I am willing to donate 500 taels of military pay to the king and [-] shi of food."

The rest of Master Li and the others also made eye contact with each other, and reported the amount they were willing to donate.

Wang Laoliu summed it up in his mind, the silver was more than 6000 taels, and as for the grain, it also reached as much as 1 taels.

Thinking about it secretly, Wang Laoliu, who felt that it was almost done, smiled and said: "Look, all the sages of the village generously donated their money to help the king's great affairs, and the king will not forget you in the future, will he?"

Mr. Zhang, Mr. Li and the others cursed secretly in their hearts, "Fuck you, you won't forget me. In the end, you will forget all about it. Just pretend that you and others never existed!"

It's just that no matter how you think about it, Master Zhang and others are also very disturbed.Today's matter is not big, but it is not small.

As long as the officers and soldiers take back Pucheng, I'm afraid that the crime of being a thief will be confirmed. At that time, I don't know how much effort it will take to manage it. The more I think about it, the more distressed Master Zhang and others are about it. The untouched dishes on the table also lost interest, and they all bid farewell to Wang Er and went back.

After Mr. Zhang and others left, Wang Er looked at Wang Laoliu and said with a smile: "Brother's brain is better than mine. Now we have a bottom line."

Hearing this, the sixth child picked up the wine glass on the table and said to Wang Er: "Brother, can you rest assured now? With these grains and money, let alone Pucheng, we will go north to join Gao Yingxiang and the others. We are not afraid of attacking Yan'an Mansion."

Wang Er nodded, raised his glass and said, "Brother is right. Come on, brother toast you!"

After drinking the wine in the glass, Wang Ercai continued: "In this case, let's get ready and go back to attack Chengcheng."

The sixth son answered, and started eating and drinking with Wang Er and Wang Blind.

After Lao Liu ate and drank enough and left, Blind Wang suddenly said to Wang Er: "This is not right. Lao Liu never wanted to ask for peace, but now his attitude is a bit too much."

But Wang Er said carelessly: "Maybe it's because I saw the benefits. Scholars have a lot of eyes, maybe they think it's better to go overseas with His Royal Highness Tang."

Blind Wang hummed and then said: "But brother, have you ever thought that the King of Tang is the king, and you are also called the king now, so His Royal Highness Tang can use you with peace of mind? The court can still recruit you? I'm afraid that now we It is the way of Lao Liu, so I can only go to the dark by a small path."

When Wang Er heard this, he also said seriously: "Even though there is a word "two" in my brother's name, it's not really just two.

The sixth child has his own ideas, and his brother knows it too, but what if he doesn't follow him now?From the beginning to the end, he was the one who made suggestions to get all the way to today.

To put it bluntly, it is true that my brother is the head of the family, but to put it bluntly, it is just a name here.If there is no Lao Liu, we will not be able to defeat Baishui County, let alone Pucheng? "

Blind Wang let out a hey, and said bitterly: "Now we can only take one step at a time. If the sixth child really can't recruit, and wants to cause even bigger troubles, no wonder I, blind Wang, don't recognize people!"

Wang Er hummed, and stopped thinking about these embarrassing things, and only concentrated on dealing with the delicious food in front of him.

At this time, Zhang Zhiji, Zhang Houye, who had originally stayed in Lantian, had already gone north with his soldiers.

Looking at Xiaotong who still had traces of the beacon fire in front of him, Zhang Zhiji spat bitterly, and ordered: "Come here, go and call to open the city gate."

It's just that before the people from Zhang Zhiji's group went to call the door, someone from the top of the city shouted: "Which army is in front?"

Seeing a person dressed as a county magistrate protruding from the top of the city, Zhang Zhiji rode his horse forward a few steps, and said loudly: "This is the Marquis of Pingbei Zhang Zhiji, quickly open the city gate and let Ben Hou enter the city." rest."

How come the county magistrate has never heard of Zhang Zhiji?Legend has it that the young man who followed the emperor to the north to conquer the grasslands was eight feet tall, with a waist circumference of three feet. He could run a horse on his arms and stand on his fists.He was born with a green face and long fangs, looking like a fierce spirit, and he had to drink the hearts of two Tartar children every day, otherwise he would be unhappy.

Of course, the county magistrate of Xiaotong County also knows that such rumors are often exaggerated, but the little boy in front of him really can't make himself connect him with the legendary murderous general.

The filial child magistrate, who had a lot of doubts in his heart, shouted loudly: "Please forgive me, my lord. Now that the bandit army has retreated, the lower officials have to be careful. I just ask my lord to bring a few soldiers into the city."

Zhang Zhiji was furious when he heard the words.

Well, you filial child magistrate, don’t you know that what annoys me the most is that people call me little grandpa?If you call it like this, don't you still think that you are relying on your father's name?

Is it tolerable or unbearable?Furious, Zhang Houye simply took four or five soldiers to the bottom of the city wall. After checking his suitability first, he entered the hanging basket placed on the top of the city and waited for the people on the city to pull him up.

But as soon as he reached the top of the city, Zhang Zhiji whipped his horsewhip towards Xiaotong magistrate without thinking.

Seeing this, more than a dozen yamen servants in Xiaotong County originally wanted to draw their knives to take back the magistrate, but they never wanted to be held back by a few soldiers brought by Zhang Zhiji, and they couldn't go forward for a while.

Xu Mingde, magistrate of the filial child, was whipped and rolled all over the floor, but he said stubbornly: "I don't know what's wrong with the lower official, and there are laws to deal with it. If the young man beats the lower official, isn't he afraid that the lower official will take a copy of you?"

Hearing this, Zhang Zhiji became even more angry in his heart, and whipped the whip a few more times, then threw the whip and said: "Call me, Lord Marquis! It's not the young master!"

After a little bit of anger in his heart, Zhang Zhiji had stabilized his mood, and after Xiaotong Magistrate got up, he ordered: "Open the city gate and let the army enter the city."

Xu Mingde secretly scolded himself for being an idiot, just now the young master kept saying that he belonged to Benhou and Benhou, and he still wanted to call him young master, this beating was not injustice.According to the holy family of the lord in front of me, if I read the book by myself, I guess it's just a matter of acting.

But no matter what, Xu Mingde didn't dare to seriously order to open the city gates and let the army enter the city.

There is a saying that the passing of bandits is like a comb, and the passing of soldiers is like a grate, especially for the guest army.

Xu Mingde, who was well aware of the virtues of these big-headed soldiers, became hardened: "Forgive me, my lord, but the officials can't order to open the city gate."

How could Zhang Zhiji not know what this filial child magistrate was worried about?Immediately he said angrily: "Open the door, I guarantee that these soldiers will not disturb the people in the city, even if they stay tonight, they will also be on the street, and they will not go to the people's homes to disturb the people!"

Xu Mingde stiffened his neck, he didn't even brush off the ashes that rolled out on the ground just now, he just said: "How can the Marquis guarantee that? If the bandits are not chaotic, but the soldiers are chaotic, how will the lower officials explain to the Son of Heaven?"

Zhang Zhiji was so annoyed by Xu Zhixian that he wanted to laugh—is Lao Tzu's soldier the same as those guard bastards before?If that's the case, let alone these soldiers arrived in your Xiaotong County within two days after receiving the imperial edict, even if they are ready, they don't know when!

It's just that Zhang Zhiji appreciates the county magistrate's refusal to open the city gate no matter what.

What kind of people lead what kind of soldiers? Emperor Chongzhen attached great importance to military discipline and common people, and Zhang Zhiji also attached importance to these, and immediately said to Xu Mingde: "This Marquis is willing to use his title as a guarantee. If a soldier disturbs the people, you Even if I impeach Benhou, even if Benhou is demoted to a commoner, I won't blame you!"

Xu Mingde saw that Zhang Zhiji had even said what he had said about taking the title as a guarantee, but was choked up for a moment and was speechless, after pondering for a while, he said: "Since Lord Marquis said so, I have no choice but to open the city gate. It’s just that Lord Hou must take good care of these soldiers, if something really disturbs the people, the next official will try not to wear this official uniform, but also to join Lord Hou!”

Seeing Xu Mingde's repeated emphasis, Zhang Zhiji just waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, I don't need you to participate, I just ask His Majesty to ask for forgiveness!"
