When Zhang Xu was brought out, he could hardly believe his eyes!
Wang Hengyue, you actually saw Wang Hengyue here?
Initially, the New Army mutinied and Zhang Xu, who came here for inspection, was detained here. Zhang Xu thought he would die, but unexpectedly he met Wang Hengyue here.
Now that Wang Hengyue is here, maybe he doesn't have to die, right?
In fact, from the moment the New Army mutinied, Zhang Xu clearly saw that the rebels were destined to fail!
Moreover, my whole family is in Chengdu. As long as I follow these people, the safety of my family is really worth worrying about. It is better to die in exchange for the safety of my family and at least get some pension money!
With such thoughts in mind, no matter how many threats and inducements the other party tried, Zhang Xu never agreed.
Xiong Kewu looked at Zhang Xu and then gave Wang Hengyue a fist: "Young shopkeeper, Zhang Xu has given it to you, ten thousand taels of silver. I hope you won't break your promise!"
Wang Hengyue knew that Xiong Kewu was protecting himself, so he also handed over his hand: "Don't worry, I have already delivered the 10,000 taels of silver!"
As he said this, he exchanged glances with Xiong Kewu: "Zhang Guandai, let's go!"
As soon as he walked out of the door, Zhang Xu, who had been holding on hard all the time, almost collapsed. Fortunately, Wu Qianlong at the side gave him a hand and did not fall down.
"Wang Bangdai, brother Shuzhi, I..." Zhang Xu wanted to say a few words of gratitude, but found that no matter what he said, he could not express his gratitude.
Wang Hengyue smiled slightly: "Zhang Guandai, after my little brother knew that you should not be held hostage by the gangsters, I had no choice but to use my name to redeem Zhang Guandai with money. I finally fulfilled my mission."
"Brother Shuzhi..." Zhang Xu finally came to his senses: "You saved my brother's life. From now on, in front of outsiders, you should still call me a dignified person. There are no outsiders, so you have to respect me."
Me, just call me brother, and we will share life and death, misfortunes and blessings in the future!"
"Brother Zhang!" Wang Hengyue was not polite: "This is not the place to talk, please leave with me!"
When they returned to their military camp, the brothers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the team officer had returned safely.
According to Zhang Xu's intention, he wanted to take this opportunity to invade Leshan in one fell swoop, and he would gather the brothers who were still holding on in the arsenal to cooperate internally and externally to completely put down the rebellion.
However, Wang Hengyue said that he would wait until the brigade arrived before taking action. Rushing in so rashly would cause unnecessary casualties, so Zhang Xu reluctantly let Zhang Xu swallow his breath.
Before night, Liu Hongkui, commander of the 66th Biaobiao, had arrived with a large team of troops and immediately called a meeting with all his subordinates.
It is a consensus to attack the city with force and wipe out the rebellious party in one fell swoop. The key is how to fight and how to fight.
"Wang Hengyue, you are the first to arrive, tell me how to fight?" Liu Hongkui's eyes fell on Wang Hengyue.
Wang Hengyue stood up bravely: "In response to Lord Biaotong's words, it is not difficult to pacify the Leshan rebellious party. The key is what to do after pacification."
"What should we do?" Liu Hongkui sneered: "Kill! Those gangsters who were killed will never dare to cause trouble again!"
"Biao Tong is wise!" the subordinates said in unison.
Liu Hongkui no longer asked Wang Hengyue's opinion: "The whole army listens to the order and will strictly monitor Leshan tonight. When the artillery team arrives early tomorrow morning, Leshan will be bombarded and attacked from all sides. No rebels will be left alive!"
"Yes, attack together, leave no one alive!"
Wang Hengyue sighed softly, what was supposed to come finally came. When the Revolutionary Party started the uprising, why didn't they consider the problems that would occur if they failed?
Liu Hongkui looked at Zhang Xu: "Zhang Xu, you are not strict in running the army, causing your subordinates to mutiny. Although you refuse to be a thief until your death, you are still responsible for the crime. If you are removed from the post of leader, you will still remain in the position to perform the crime and perform meritorious service!"
“Thank you, Biao Tong!”
"Let's break up. Let's work together to defeat the thief tomorrow morning!"
After walking outside, Wang Hengyue thought for a while, then turned around and walked in unwillingly: "Biaotong, this subordinate has something to say."
"Speak!" Liu Hongkui said without raising his head.
Wang Hengyue toughened his scalp: "My subordinates think it is inappropriate to bombard the city with artillery."
"Oh, why?" Liu Hongkui finally raised his head.
Wang Hengyue paused briefly: "Sir Biao Tong, an artillery attack is naturally easy to succeed, but it can also easily cause a large number of civilian casualties. Moreover, there are our own brothers in the city, and the artillery shells have no eyes. At the same time as the rebels are suppressed, I am afraid it will also cause a large number of innocent people."
The person was killed or injured. If word spreads, I'm afraid..."
"I am united in suppressing the rebellion and loyal. Who dares to say that I am half-hearted?"
"That's what I said." Wang Hengyue simply gave up at this time: "But once these things reach the ears of people with ulterior motives, I'm afraid they will say that you killed innocent people indiscriminately for your own selfish purposes, especially if it spreads to the court.
Here, those gentlemen in the capital don't know the hardships down there, and by then you will have a thousand or ten thousand mouths and you won't be able to explain clearly."
Liu Hongkui stopped his movements and frowned tightly.
Wang Hengyue's words are not unreasonable. This kind of thing has happened before. When the court uses you, everything is fine, but if you commit something, these will become evidence of your crime.
"So, what do you think it should be?"
Seeing that Liu Hongkui's thoughts were gradually brought to him, Wang Hengyue said hurriedly: "Actually, those rebels don't have much fighting power, so it is not difficult to pacify them. Tomorrow morning, we only need to concentrate all our forces and attack from all sides. We have people in the city, is it possible?
Can the chaos still succeed?"
Liu Hongkui thought carefully for a long time and nodded slowly: "The Wang gang said that you can fight. I didn't see it with my own eyes, but the words you said today and my thoughts about me are all in my heart.
."
"Thank you, Lord Biaotong!"
"Come here, pass the order, the artillery team will move slowly!"
As soon as he heard this, Wang Hengyue finally felt relieved. In any case, this stage has finally passed. Although the rebels will still suffer a large number of casualties in the attack tomorrow, compared with using cannons, he is already more capable.
The range minimized the casualties Leshan would suffer.
For the rest, the people in Leshan City can only ask for their own blessings.
Liu Hongkui suddenly said: "Wang Bangdao, you are very good at using your brain. I lack someone like you around me. Are you interested in coming to help me?"
Wang Hengyue was shocked. He had finally gained some scale in Rong County. Now that he was transferred, all his efforts would be in vain. He quickly said:
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Biaotong. My subordinates can still serve you in Rong County. If I promote my subordinates now, I'm afraid it will cause gossip among others. After a while, if Biaotong still misses me, Heng Yue will definitely come over.
