Chapter 23 Thieves enter the city

It turned out that Zhang Shenyan didn't know about it. After Zhang Shun got his handwriting, he took the opportunity to attach a forged letter from Zhang Shenyan's son Zhang Luxuan and sent it to Chenzhi County in Yangcheng. At that time, Zhang Shun thought to himself: Zhang Shenyan is a third-rank official.

When the magistrate of Yangcheng County came to take office, he must have visited him frequently and became familiar with this person's handwriting. As for Zhang Shenyan's son, although his studies were good, he was still a child. He must have been obscured by Zhang Shenyan's light, and his handwriting must not be familiar to others.

If the Yangcheng County magistrate is really familiar with Zhang Shenyan's handwriting, he must be a "shaolengzao" person. How can he sit back and watch the fall of Tuncheng Village? He must personally go out and make himself familiar with Zhang's face. If this person does not know Zhang Shenyan's handwriting, he must laugh.

Above all, the priority is to protect Yangcheng.

Therefore, Zhang Shun ordered his subordinates to ambush between Yangcheng and Tuncheng Village. If it was the first case, they would definitely be able to capture the county magistrate and take Yangcheng lightly; if it was the second case, they would attack Tuncheng Village and use Zhang Shenyan as a "voucher for surrender."

.

When Chen Zhixian saw Zhang Shenyan's handwriting, he did not doubt it was a lie. As expected, he sent troops to rescue him, but was ambushed by Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun's subordinates Chen Changzhen, Xiao Qinhu, Wukong and Zhang Sanbai were all fierce generals, and they defeated Chen Zhixian's men with a single charge.

The mixed soldiers were strong and captured the magistrate Chen of Yangcheng alive.

So, Zhang Shun smiled and said: "Sir, you are a high-ranking official. Please give me an idea: Do you think County Magistrate Chen should kill or release?"

When Zhang Shenyan heard this, he just wanted to curse: This thief is shameless and cunning, and he behaves like a thief even when he gets an advantage. Asking this question is just a deliberate attempt to embarrass himself. If he said that he should let the magistrate go, he would definitely be tainted by the magistrate as a thief, which would harm his family.

Destroy your reputation; if you say you killed the magistrate, you will definitely feel sad about this, so how can you claim to be a loyal minister?

One sentence, two traps, but in the end the other party didn't listen to his answer at all. Zhang Shenyan had to admire that this guy really turned his hand into clouds and rain, and was speechless.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Shun said to Magistrate Chen: "I already know this person's intentions, so you can go on your way with peace of mind!"

They had people pull him down and chop him down. Chen Zhixian was shocked when he heard this and quickly asked for help: "Shilang Zhang, please open your mouth and save me."

Seeing this, Zhang Shenyan almost couldn't help but open his mouth to intercede. He opened his mouth silently, but finally held back. Don't look at this guy as pitiful. This guy was captured because he was defeated. After this guy escaped, in order to get away with it,

Not only will he put all the blame on himself, but he will also kill his entire family to avoid future troubles.

It is not worth pitying to die, but if this thief becomes bigger, the Ming Dynasty will never have peace. Only by keeping a useful body and exchanging the life of this thief can the world have peace.

Zhang Shun saw that he was silent and did not force him too much, so he beheaded the man. Then he escorted the prisoners from Yangcheng County, picked up Chen Zhixian's head, and walked towards Yangcheng County in a show of force. Zhang Shenyan's true story was that Zhang Shun would definitely come over and treat him for a while.

He was sarcastic, but never thought that the thief just pretended that the incident had not happened and went about his business.

When Zhang Shun led his men to Yangcheng County, picked up the head of the county magistrate, and took the captives to show off their power, the guards on the city were all silent and did not dare to look directly. So Zhang Shun had someone build a simple wooden ladder and climb up

Go up to the city wall. Sure enough, when the Yangcheng guards saw the thieves rushing up, they dispersed in a hurry.

Zhang Shun easily occupied Yangcheng, so he sent a message to "Zijinliang" to say that he had captured Yangcheng County, and asked Zhang Shenyan to enter the city with him. Zhang Shenyan said that since these bandits captured the city, there must be a burst of burning, killing and looting.

At that time, I never thought that Zhang Shun's team would have no plans.

It turned out that the soldiers recruited by Zhang Shun were all good people. Although they were not trained, they were not infected by the behavior of "rebellious soldiers". In addition, Zhang Shun hated out-of-control behavior, and he actually trained a completely different army.

As the saying goes: A thief is like a comb, a soldier is like a grate. This comb refers to a comb, and the grate is a comb with dense teeth, a tool used to clean out lice in the hair. It means that when a thief comes, he is like a comb.

It's like scraping, but when the officers and soldiers come, it's like scraping with a grate. It's often used to illustrate the ruthlessness of thieves and officers and soldiers and the harm they do to the people.

In such a comparison, Zhang Shun's army is simply the army of kings. Even Zhang Shenyan has to admit that Zhang Shun does have means, and it is unknown whether he really has destiny.

After waiting for a day, "Purple Gold Liang" came over with a large number of thieves, and also took some crying people and women with them. Zhang Shun frowned when he saw it, but he couldn't say anything.

When the two met, "Zijinliang" laughed loudly and said: "The little brother really has a way. Brother Yu besieged Gaoping County and tried to fight twice but failed to defeat him. Instead, the little brother took the advantage. Brother Yu went first."

Reward your brothers and I will talk to you later."

As he spoke, he walked towards a house with a tall lintel in front of him. Zhang Shun quickly asked: "Second Master, what are you doing? Why are we going to someone else's house instead of going to the county government?"

"It's strange that your little brother is nicknamed 'Optimus Prime' but he is a eunuch. When the Sa family comes in, it is natural to comfort the family members for the master of the house. Look at me, I am almost becoming 'Optimus Prime'." 2

The head of the house was a lewd monk, and he entered the courtyard with a filthy look on his face. Suddenly, all kinds of sounds of chickens, dogs, and screams could be heard from inside.

Zhang Shun showed a look of disgust on his face and spat. Zhang Shenyan looked at him very strangely and tried to persuade him, so he took the initiative to ask for the first time: "Aren't all thieves and bandits like this? As a bandit, why do you despise this kind of behavior?

?”

Zhang Shun pointed at the residents on the street with disdain and asked, "What is this?"

Zhang Shenyan didn't know what he was talking about, and asked strangely: "They are just common people, what else can they be?"

"Whose people are these?" Zhang Shun heard the words and said with a smile, "These are all my people, they are just staying in the Zhu family for the time being. If it were not beyond my power, I would like to kill this thief to relieve the hatred in my heart. How can I live under someone else's roof?

I have no choice but to do what Goujian did."

Zhang Shenyan was speechless when he heard what he said. "Zijinliang" was a bandit, and his behavior as a bandit was really hateful. However, Zhang Shun, as a bandit, loved the people more than the officers and soldiers, and even directly regarded the people as his subjects, and regarded Zhu as his own.

The emperor's lack of things was simply frightening. For a moment, he couldn't tell which kind of bandit made him more disgusted, but he was sure that Zhang Shun's kind of bandit made him want to get rid of him more quickly.

So, Zhang Shun had no choice but to return to the county government office by himself, took out the steel whip in his hand, and whipped it twice at the doorpost of the county government office, and then walked into the courtyard with satisfaction. Zhang Shenyan followed, walked to the doorpost, and looked at the two doors.
