As soon as Dong Sheng died, Zhu Shitao and Lei Heng panicked. Yang Hu held the sword in his hand and cut off Zhu Shitao's Nine Dragon Chaoyang Sword.
He was surrounded by a group of soldiers. Although he resisted, he was still injured.
He was seriously injured and lost his weapon, and was hacked to death by a group of soldiers. Lei Heng fought against Hua Xiaorong alone. Seeing Zhu Shitao and Dong Sheng dead, his hands were messed up, and Hua Xiaorong turned around and stabbed him in the waist with his carbine. Fortunately, Lei Heng died.
He held on tightly to the horse's reins to prevent him from falling off the horse.
He was so frightened that he no longer wanted to fight with Hua Xiaorong. He immediately gave up his weapon and rode away on horseback. Er Yang broke through the obstruction and helped Lu Heng. Naturally, Qin Lang and others could not get any benefits. Seeing that Zhang Xianzhong and others had already
He fled far away and immediately used a flaw to escape. Unfortunately, Hua Xiaorong was too quick and stabbed Zheng Tianshou to death.
Hua Xiaorong fired a shot, and since then the three Qingfeng Mountain brothers Han Ying, Yan Biao and Zheng Tianshou were all killed. Qin Lang and others had no intention of revenge and could only flee in a hurry. Lu Heng also wanted to lead the horse to chase, but was
Hua Xiao
Rong stopped him, "Monk, there's no need to chase him. If you really wanted to kill Zhang Xianzhong, this Xianzhong would have died long ago even if it had nine lives. Leaving him alive would be of great use."
In a battle in Shouzhou County, more than half of the more than 30,000 people in Chaohu were killed and injured, and most of those who escaped with their lives were scattered. When the news that Shang Kexi, Liu Guoneng and others raided Shouzhou County reached Xihua County, Rousseau knew that he was in trouble
Others take the blame
, but it was too late to react at this time. If he wanted to attack Xihua County again, many people would have to be buried near Xihua County when Shang Kexi's army came back for reinforcements. There was no other way, so he set up camp and retreated south that night. Tie Mo also
The wise man did not pursue.
After a great battle, Chaohu suffered heavy losses, including numerous casualties of soldiers and horses. The loss of leaders, big and small, was heartbreaking. After returning to Chaohu, people were asked to count the number of people. Zhang Xianzhong knelt down and howled on the spot. After the battle, the war
More than 16,000 people were killed, including Shuang Dongsheng, Zhu Shitao, Zhang Xing, Liu Kui, Lei Heng and Sun Sheng.
, Sun Yong, Zheng Tianshou, Yan Biao, and one Zhuang Huai, whose whereabouts are unknown, and countless others were injured. Ten leaders were lost in the first battle, and Zhuang Huai still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. How can Zhang Xianzhong not feel distressed?
Also, Shi Ming, Zhu Shen, Chen Da and Yang Chun actually surrendered the Northern Shanxi Army.
On August 15th, the eighth year of Chongzhen Emperor's reign, before Zhang Xianzhong could calm down, Zhu Youneng sent a man back outside Chaohu Water Village. When he saw the man lying on the wooden board, Zhang Xianzhong swayed and threw himself on him and cried bitterly.
At this time, both Zhuang Huai's arms were missing, and there was a piece of cloth stuffed in his mouth. His eyes were staring at the sky, a little blankly. He pulled out the cloth, Zhang Xianzhong hugged Zhuang Huai and cried loudly, "Zhuang Huai, it's
Who, who did this to you?"
"It's Xu Meiling, that stinky bitch. She chopped off both of my little brother's arms, but she didn't kill him. She even knocked out his teeth. Even if he committed suicide, he couldn't do it...Brother Zhang...please show your kindness."
, kill my little brother...please, don’t torture my little brother..."
At this time, Zhuang Huai's mouth was open, but it was empty. Where could he find half a tooth? Zhang Xianzhong's eyes were red, and his hands were shaking slightly. They said that snakes, scorpions, bees and needles are the most poisonous to women's hearts. It is indeed true. This Xu Meiling chopped
She took both of Zhuang Huai's arms, knowing that Zhuang Huai's life would be worse than death, but she still saved him and knocked out a mouth full of teeth. That was all, why did she send Zhuang Huai up the mountain? Did she want Zhang Xianzhong to kill Zhuang Huai with his own hands?
Feeling hatred and panic in his heart, he let go of his hand. Zhang Xianzhong staggered back, his hands still waving, "No...no...Zhuang Huai, you can't die, you have to watch as my brother's replacement."
You take revenge, and for your brother’s sake, you must let that woman die..."
"Heh...Brother, what's the point of seeing my little brother like this? You know how my little brother can live like this? Please...kill Zhuang...kill Zhuang
, I will repay your kindness in my next life..."
Knowing that what Zhuang Huai said was true, and knowing that living like this would be worse than death, how could Zhang Xianzhong do it? Xu Meiling's move was so cruel. If Zhang Xianzhong did it himself, what would the other brothers think? This move was simply unbelievable.
It's worse than chopping him and Zhang.
Turning around, two streaks of blood and tears ran down his cheeks. After listening to Zhuang Huai's cries for a long time, Zhang Xianzhong gritted his teeth and pulled out the knife next to him. Zhang Xianzhong walked towards Zhuang Huai step by step. The leader in the hall was gone.
One came up to stop him. Everyone knew that the best result for Zhuang Huai was a quick death, but among the villagers, except Zhang Xianzhong, who had the power to end Zhuang Huai's life?
"Brother, don't worry, I will make Xu Meiling live and die..."
"Brother, if you want her to be a bitch, and be ridden by thousands of people, Jiejie... don't kill her... Jiejie... don't kill her... Jiejie... Jiejie.
.." Zhuang Huai looked so terrifying with his hollow mouth open, and his laughter seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hell. He hated Xu Meiling, but he had forgotten what he had done back then.
Zhang Xianzhong nodded with difficulty, "Han Niu, let's be brothers again in the next life." After saying that, Zhang Xianzhong wiped the knife on Zhuang Huai's neck. Suddenly, blood flowed across the floor. Zhuang Huai lay on the board with his eyes wide open and his face
But it was a smile of relief.
Zhuang Huai is dead, but Zhang Xianzhong is alive, but in this life, this shadow will torture him. Holding the steel knife tightly, Zhang Xianzhong's tall body bent a little. He looked at the blue sky outside the hall, his eyes became more and more sinister, and his whole body was exuding.
With a strong momentum, he said, "The Living King of Hell... Xu Meiling... In the future, I, Zhang Xianzhong, will definitely make you regret what you did today..."
Maybe Xu Meiling did everything, but Xu Meiling is Tie Mo's woman, and Tie Mo has to bear all the sins.
Lu Tong frowned without a trace. He knew that from today on, Zhang Xianzhong is no longer the same Zhang Xianzhong. Maybe he was still pretentious before, but from now on, he will become more cruel and vicious.
, and also looked more heroic. For some reason, Lu Tong was a little scared. He couldn't help but glance at Rousseau, who was silent next to him. In the future, this rebel army would be in chaos.
After the war, Chaohu's vitality was severely damaged. Now it can only rely on water fortresses to compete with the imperial court. Want to go out? Haha, even if one hundred thousand stones of grain are placed outside Yingzhou City, it is estimated that Chaohu will not have water fortresses. A big war,
If someone loses, someone will gain. The one who gained this time was Tie Mo. Not only did he speak loudly about Chaohu, he also gained a lot of talents.
When Lu Heng led Shi Ming, Zhu Shen and others to the county government office, Tie Mo's eyes looked back and forth on these people, especially Zhu Shen. Seeing that this man faced squarely and had a tall body, he looked like a fierce man. Who could
Did you think he would be so scheming?
Tie Mo wanted to use Zhu Shen, but he didn't dare to use it. After all, he was just a newcomer and didn't know Zhu Shen very well.
Tie Mo was silent for a long time, and Zhu Shen and others seemed to be uneasy. They had heard about the Living King of Hell for a long time. In addition, in the battle of Shouzhou County, it was really extraordinary to act so decisively and ruthlessly. Moreover, although this man was young,
But with every move of his hands and feet, his aura is revealed, he is not angry and intimidating, and it is difficult not to be afraid.
After thinking about it, Tie Mo smiled and said, "Shi Ming, Chen Da, and Yang Chun, as brave as you three are, you should first serve as team leaders under General Lu. When you have merit in the future, you can accumulate your merits and receive rewards. As for
Zhu Shen, there is one less military counselor in our army, are you willing to deign to do so?"
Although the head of the Northern Shan army was only equivalent to a hundred men, it was still a bit low for Shi Ming and others. Therefore, Shi Ming and others felt that Tie Mo looked down upon them, but the next arrangement for Zhu Shen
, and let them see hope. Although they did not have any specific duties to consult with the army, at that time, the status of those who followed the commander was only below that of the military adviser. If they did a good job, they would have a bright future. It can be seen that the commander intended to
Zhu Shen needs to be reused.
Shi Ming had one idea in his mind, but Zhu Shen had another idea in his mind. When he thought about it, the supervisor kept him by his side. It seemed to be important, but in fact it also meant surveillance and observation. If he did it well, he would have a bright future.
If you don't do it well, you may end up dead at any time.
On the other hand, although Shi Ming and others are just the leader of the team and are lower-level officers, they must not forget the relationship between Shi Ming and Lu Heng. If they work under him, if there is a war in the future, if they want to take credit, it is not a matter of Lu Heng's words, so
It seems that the arrangement is a bit low, but in fact, a good road has been paved. Zhu Shen is not dissatisfied with Tie Mo's arrangement. If the supervisor entrusts him with important tasks and believes in it as soon as he comes, it will appear that the supervisor is incompetent.
. Moreover, they all have real abilities. Are they still afraid that they will not be able to accumulate merit and be promoted in the future?
Shi Ming and others were still hesitating, but Zhu Shen rubbed Shi Ming and Chen Da with his elbow, and immediately said loudly, "Thank you, Governor, for your kindness. We will definitely live up to the Governor's trust."
Seeing Zhu Shen like this, Shi Ming and others also followed suit and saluted. Tie Mo looked at Zhu Shen with satisfaction. He is really a smart man. If this person can be trusted, Brother Dongfang Ximen will not have to complain about the heavy burden all day long.
.
"Okay, there is no need for this. You just need to do your job well, but if you have the ability, I will never taint you. You have worked hard for a day, so you should go down and have a rest. Monk, please entertain these few for me!
"
"Don't worry, Supervisor, the Sa family will take care of it!"
Lu Heng's careless words shocked Shi Ming and others. He was doing all sorts of things in front of the Superintendent. Isn't that the same as his self-proclaimed mantra? What makes people even more speechless is that Superintendent Tie seems to be used to it.
, I don’t care, what is going on? Not to mention Shi Ming, even Zhu Shen is a little confused. Is this how the bald man usually talks to the supervisor?
After Lu Heng and others left, Tie Mo nuzzled at Yang Hu. Yang Hu understood and followed Lu Heng to drink. Yang Hu was not here to join in the fun, but to take the opportunity to observe Shi Ming and others. After all, Liu Guoneng and others
With his identity, it is impossible for him to take the initiative to drink with Shi Ming and others.
After a great victory, not only those in Chaohu hated Tiemo, but Cheng Jiming and others also hated Tiemo. Chaohu troops were defeated so quickly. Wasn't the imperial court's dream of taking the opportunity to weaken the Northern Shanxi Army shattered?
Fang's reaction was mixed, while the Iron Supervisor was thinking about other things.
On August 17, a carriage drove into Xihua County. That night, a woman in green shirt quietly entered the county government office. In the study, Tie Mo played with a bottle of the latest perfume, but kept staring at the pretty girl next to him.
Girl.
Today Zhilan is wearing an emerald green gauze shirt, which looks thin and makes her exquisite figure look very enchanting. "Ahem, girl, are you here to hook up with the governor, or with Ximen Feng?"
"
After listening to Inspector Tie's words, Zhi Lan blushed and said angrily with her almond-shaped eyes, "Inspector, what are you talking about? It's... the matter is so big... I'm afraid that Inspector will make some omissions."
, the maid is just here to take a look, not to hook up with... but to see the supervisor."
"Hehe, I'm talking nonsense. Guess you're talking nonsense. Isn't it just to kill Ximen Feng? Are you more capable of killing people than I am? If you want to seduce me, just say so. Anyway, the eldest lady is already married.
Now, can I still be angry with you?"
Superintendent Iron's words were too straightforward, even though Zhilan was a bit thick-skinned, she couldn't bear it. She stomped out with a red face, "Superintendent, I'm ignoring you, you're always teasing your maid!"
Looking at the disappearing pretty figure, Tie Mo shook his head secretly. What's the point of being embarrassed? It's only a matter of time. However, Zhilan is not in a hurry. Ximen Feng needs to hurry up. What reason should be used to kill Ximen?
Where is the wind?
Ximen Feng is very influential in Xihua and even Kaifeng Mansion. For a big businessman like him, you have to have a good reason to kill him. Otherwise, you will end up with the reputation of destroying the manor and embezzling the family wealth. In the future, you want big businessmen to do it.
It will be difficult for them to do things. Of course, the best reason is that Ximen Feng has connected with Chaohu and intends to rebel. However, Ximen Feng is too shrewd and has not left any evidence. Is it necessary to forge evidence and frame the blame?
Touching his forehead and knocking on it, a thought suddenly flashed through Tie Mo's mind. I heard that Ximen Feng often goes to Yicui Building? Hey, Xu Meiling happens to be there too. If you plan carefully, it's not hopeless.
In the Xihua Building, Ximen Feng, who was drinking happily, suddenly shivered. It was strange. Why was he shivering in this warm August weather?
It is said that Ximen Feng has only two hobbies, one is good money and the other is prostitution. He has many wives and concubines at home, but he likes the feeling of colorful flags fluttering outside. No, he has recently fallen in love with Meng Wenyue, a young widow from South Street.
Meng Wenyue was originally the mother-in-law of Yang Gao, a silk and satin merchant on South Street. She had skin as white as snow, charming eyes, and a face that seemed to be dripping with water. Meng Wenyue was from a well-off family, and Yang Gao had a lot of money.
Many people lived a happy life. Unfortunately, Yang Gao was not so lucky and married a beautiful woman. As a result, he died of a sudden illness within a few months of enjoying his life.
Now that it has only been three months since Yang Gao's death, Ximen Feng has begun to have ideas about Meng Wenyue. Firstly, he is greedy for Meng Wenyue's beauty, and secondly, he is thinking about the money and silk business in Meng Wenyue's hands. Don't look at Ximen Feng
The business shop is very large, and there is a lot of food on Jingdong Road, but the inside is also very empty. Recently, I have to compete with Zhang Min, a wealthy businessman in Daming Mansion, but I need a lot of money, so Meng Wenyue fell to Meng Wenyue.
Originally, Ximen Feng planned to ask the matchmaker Mrs. Xue and Wang Ganniang to take turns to make noise with Meng Wenyue in two months. It was easy to say that Mrs. Meng had followed him. Ximen Feng supposed that everything would be as usual, but Ximen Feng didn't know that it had already happened at this moment.
