After breaking Yang Tiansong's belly, Zhang Jun was about to take his heart and drink. He thought of Wang Xiaolie's strictly prohibition in the army, so he could barely hold it back. He slashed Yang Tiansong's head with a knife, held it in his hand, and stepped into the yamen.

Liu Man knew that he could not resist the enemy today, so he hurriedly packed up the accumulated wealth in the yamen and wanted to escape from the city. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jun broke in in just a blink of an eye. Several of his men ran away like a disadvantaged person, leaving Liu Man there alone.

Zhang Jun said: "You have been happy for many days, and it is worth the rest of your life. Come here quickly, I will kill you with one knife!"

After killing Liu Man, Zhang Jun searched everywhere. As soon as he walked to the Houya, he saw his mother coming out of it. Seeing his son, Pan Sanniang said happily: "My son, it's really you here! I miss you so hard these days! Put down the knife quickly! You are covered in blood and look at the creepy person!"

Seeing that his mother was dressed neatly, wearing silk, satin, painted and powdered, and looking red, Zhang Jun couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It's really hard to say, his mother.

The soldiers opened the city gate, and Shao Ling led the army into the city. Yang Tiansong and Liu Man were killed, and dozens of soldiers were scattered everywhere and had nowhere to look for them. Shao Ling had to send someone to appease the people and occupied the Xinyang army.

The Jinzhouyamen each sat down, and Zhang Jun said, "Just as soon as he killed Liu Man, he saw him packing up his treasures there and preparing to run away. The two thieves robbed a lot of treasures. It is better to send people quickly and carefully count them."

Shao Ling nodded: "This period of time, the army spent a lot of money, and the magistrate really lacked money. We are not allowed to privately seize it, and we must pay it back. With these treasures, we can support a lot of life."

Zhang Jun smiled and said, "From the arrival of Ruzhou, there was no investment in the whole winter. The magistrate did so many things, but did he rely on the supplies he received from Yang Jin? Kill a few more thieves and life would be more abundant."

Shao Ling said: "You can't say that. The magistrate made it clear that if someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend others. In the days to come, we must focus on practicing our internal skills. The people work hard to farm, the army practices killing skills, and the merchants do business steadily, which is the way out."

Zhang Jun said: "The magistrate is a kind-hearted person. To be honest, sometimes I feel that the magistrate is too soft-hearted!"

Shao Ling shook his head and said earnestly: "Our brothers, I will tell you the truth. The magistrate has its own magistrate. We subordinates should not talk casually. In April, the magistrate woke up and took our brothers to fight for a lot. How could he suffer a loss? If you only follow your own wishes, how could you be today? Now there are several states, and you can train your troops steadily, and you will definitely have a great future!"

Zhang Jun nodded and said yes. But he felt a little dissatisfied. In his opinion, Wang Xiaolie was too conservative. He had passed the Lushan Pass and had no opponent around him. He took this opportunity to defeat all the surrounding prefectures and counties. Even if he couldn't defend himself, he was plundering all the wealth from various places into his own hands, which is not better than now?

Shao Ling wrote a letter and sent a quick horse to Wang Xiaolie. Six days later, Wang Xiaolie's letter arrived. He asked Shao Ling to temporarily keep Xinyang Army, and Zhang Jun immediately returned to Xinye. Let's talk about the specific arrangements later.

Zhang Jun took his mother and walked all the way, and finally arrived in Xinye.

After nearly a month of construction, the roads around Xinye have been cleared. There are also a large number of migrant workers here, building rivers, canals, small roads and military residences, and they are full of enthusiasm.

When I entered Xinye City, I saw that it was empty inside and there were not even a pedestrian on the road. Pan Sanniang frowned and said, "The city is so deserted! I was captured by Yang Tiansong and lived many hard days. What should I do if I live here?"

Zhang Jun said angrily: "Living here is at least peaceful days! In the chaotic times, living is more important than anything else!"

Pan Sanniang sighed deeply, with a sad face and stopped talking.

After relocating his mother, Zhang Jun entered the yamen and paid a visit to Wang Xiaoli.

Let Zhang Jun sit down, Wang Xiaolei said: "I didn't expect to break the Xinyang Army so soon. You made great contributions this time! By the way, Shao Ling said that you have the merit of climbing first this time. When you arrive at the city, you will break the city in one or two hours."

Zhang Jun said: "Yang Tiansong, who was in Ruzhou, took my mother abducted. How can I tolerate him?"

Wang Xiaoli nodded: "Indeed, this thief cannot be kept. By the way, what happened to the rebel Yang Tiansong and Liu Man?"

Zhang Jun said, "I killed him with one knife!" After saying that, he was always a little unwilling to accept it. He said, "I was going to take his heart and drink with him after killing that guy Yang Tiansong. But the magistrate has been strictly prohibited from doing this in the army, so I just let it go!"

Wang Xiaolei was surprised. Looking at Zhang Jun, it took a while to realize that people's thoughts were different from themselves at this time. From the late Tang and Five Dynasties, it can actually be traced back to earlier when the Chinese army had the habit of eating human flesh. By the Song Dynasty, this wind slowly declined. But in the army, this habit has always been there.

When I remembered my previous life, I often drank people with wine when I read "Water Margin". At that time, I couldn't feel anything when I read the text, but when I really met it today, I felt shocked. In fact, it was not just this time, until the Republic of China that the atmosphere was not cut off.

After adjusting his thoughts, Wang Xiaolei said: "Confucius once said that we never tire of food, and never tire of fine meat. When we eat food, we say that the taste is good and good for the body. We cannot eat meat and drink blood like animals. If you have a grudge against Yang Tiansong, it will be enough to take his life. What is the use of eating his heart and liver? This is done by the uncivilized barbarians, and we cannot do it."

Zhang Jun nodded. However, judging from his meaning, he obviously did not agree with Wang Xiaoli's opinion.

Wang Xiaoliu is powerless to do anything about this. Changing an era is not just a matter of saying a few words. Instead, it is a silent moistening thing, slowly changing over time. Now he can only force the rules and it is difficult to convince his subordinates.

Wang Xiaoliu said: "I have something to order you to call you back this time. Xinyang Army is not big, but its geographical location is very important and should not be underestimated. After passing Xinyang, you can go directly to Ezhou and have no danger to guard. It is the gate of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River—"

Hearing this, Zhang Jun couldn't help but interrupted, "Magistrate, there are more roads to Ezhou, how many people are going to Xinyang Army? To be honest, it's not an important place to go there."

Wang Xiaoli was stunned for a moment. He knew that Xinyang was Ezhou, which was the gate of Wuhan in later generations, and did not rely on the knowledge of this era. It was mentioned in the introduction materials during the War of Resistance Against Japan. However, there were too many changes in ancient and modern times, and Ezhou was far from the important position of Wuhan in later generations. The major transportation routes in north and south were still in Xiangyang and Jiangling Prefecture. Later, the road moved eastward and Wuhan's status was improved. Of course, the strategic value of the Xinyang Army was not comparable to that of now.

After waved his hand, Wang Xiaolei said, "Don't guess randomly, just listen to me. The Xinyang Army is inconspicuous now, but the geographical location is there, so you must not underestimate it. I want to send you to watch this place."

After hearing this, Zhang Jun was overjoyed. After moving south from Ruzhou and annihilated Yang Jin, the other generals became the governors of one state, and only he was left. - Of course, Shao Ling could not be counted as he was now a general in the army. - Zhang Jun was so envious. He heard that Wang Xiaoli wanted to go to the Xinyang Army by himself, he was overjoyed.

Wang Xiaolien said: "There is another thing, Xinyang produces tea. If you want to make money, the fastest thing is salt, wine and tea--"

Zhang Jun couldn't help but say, "The magistrate, Xinyang does not produce much tea. The one that produces a lot of tea is Guangzhou in the south."

Wang Xiaoli was a little annoyed and aggravated his voice: "How can Xinyang not produce tea? Lu Yu Tea Classic records, Huainan Tea Farm, Xinyang Tea is second only to Guangzhou Tea! Guangzhou is a major road in the north and south, and belongs to Huainan Road. It is not under our jurisdiction, so we can only produce tea by Xinyang Army. After you get there, you can book all the tea farms of Xinyang Army and find out one by one. In the past few days, I will go there myself."

In my memory of my previous life, Xinyang Maojian was the best among tea. Now that I have occupied Xinyang, Wang Xiaoliu is obsessed with it. In this era, tea is a source of wealth and cannot be spared. Once the tea is made, there will be a lot of ways to make money.

In fact, in this era, as Zhang Jun said, the Xinyang army was far from the status of later generations. The one who replaced Xinyang was Guangzhou, which was Huangchuan County, which belonged to Xinyang City in later generations. At this time, the north-south passage and tea-collecting farms were all in Guangzhou. So Wang Xiaoli did not allow Zhang Yong to pass through Tangzhou, so he went to Guangzhou very sweetly. Occupying Guangzhou was much better than Tangzhou.

This is a difference between ancient and modern times, and Wang Xiaoli's memory is not very useful. At this time, the Jianghan Plain had not been developed yet, and there were large swamps in Hubei, and major transportation routes from north to south were avoided in Wuhan. Jiangling Prefecture in the west was a passage from Shu, and its status was much more important.

Seeing that Zhang Jun stopped interrupting, Wang Xiaolei said: "A military general is the main purpose of preventing foreign bandits from peeping at the city. Don't take too much care of daily government affairs. I will send officials to manage local affairs. Except for local affairs, don't interfere with them in daily life-"

Zhang Jun was stunned when he heard this. He said, "In this way, what is the use of my magistrate?"

Wang Xiaolei said: "How old are you? Is it possible to manage a state well for you? As long as you control the army, guard the city, and at the same time suppress the public officials under your command, you will be very competent! Let me tell you that recently, all states have been cleaning up local tyrants, revoking packages, and blocking their heads. There will inevitably be many things. If someone makes trouble under the rule, you must take ruthless measures and arrest people immediately! Don't be afraid of them making trouble, and don't be afraid of them having too many people, just do it!"

Zhang Jun smiled and said, "I did this! If you say you are trying to do it, it will be the best for me!"

Wang Xiaoli nodded: "Just know that things must be done strictly in accordance with the regulations of the prefectures and counties, and do not make things angry. As long as the public officials under their jurisdiction do not commit crimes, they should not interfere too much. We are leading troops to fight, so don't waste energy on this."

Compared with others, Zhang Jun is the youngest and most energetic. Therefore, Wang Xiaolie specially called him back and specifically reminded him, for fear of something going on in trouble. Of course, Wang Xiaolie said that Zhang Jun was young, but forgot that he was not old.
