Chapter 224 Abandoning the Disease
"What did he say?"

When the dust and smoke cleared, there was no one standing in front of the south gate of Bozhou City.

There were broken limbs and rotten flesh all over the place, and the large pieces of blood that stuck to the ground just now were covered in dust. Everyone's ears were buzzing, and it was hard to tell whether it was the wailing of people or the tinnitus after the violent explosion.

The old troops of the Zuohu Army on the east and west sides were held at the top of the city by the people led by Zhang Jun and Han Chang. When the loud noise came, the two of them were startled. They did not dare to delay any longer, and they agreed in unison, Climbed the ladder as the commander of the first army.

They are all masters who have experienced countless battles and murders. Seeing the scene below the city at this time, I couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, but...

Fortunately, Zhao Guan's family is fine.

Fortunately, Bozhou City was broken.

Zhong Lei is young, and in his family's educational knowledge, he has dabbled in horse combat and foot combat and even water warfare, but this is the first time he has seen this method of warfare with firearms.

At this time, he clearly heard what the emperor's brother-in-law said, but he lost his mind for a rare time, so he asked tentatively:

"Official, what are you talking about?"

Liu Bang stood at the forefront, and he was relieved after seeing that the generals were all fine... The power of the thunder that shook the sky was like breaking the sky, completely refreshing the emperor's cognition.

"Didn't you hear?"

He turned his head and looked at Zhong Lei with some doubts:

"What did the old man say before lighting the fire?"

When he talked to Li Qiong, each said a sentence, and the guards next to him repeated it, so it was no problem to be able to talk.

But when the old guy rushed over, he really shouted something...

Zhong Lei nodded and said, "It's true that I didn't pay much attention to it... Is this important?"

Does it matter?

It's just the last words of a dead person, of course it doesn't matter.

Right now he has a lot of things to do, the soldiers in the city, the terrified people, the wounded soldiers, and the garrison of 10,000+ soldiers and horses, all of these must be decided by him.

But there seemed to be something grasping in his heart, he really wanted to know what the old man was shouting about.

So he looked at the others again: "Did you hear that?"

Like him, the people around him were far away from Xin Zan. If he couldn't hear it, neither could anyone else.

But someone always heard it, and Liu Bang staggered forward. At first, he had the heart to avoid the broken meat on the ground, but later, he simply gave up... Whether it was blood or bone, he stepped on it directly.

"Did you hear?"

As the distance from the explosion point got closer, more and more people heard the shout, but no one could clearly hear what he was shouting.

All the way to the side of those two people...the two stayed for a while. They were among the five dead men. They were ready to die, but after all, they were young. A little discouraged.

This is human nature and no one can blame it harshly.

"His Majesty……"

The two men fell on the ground, and now they began to cry belatedly. Maybe it was because of fear, maybe it was luck, maybe it was because they cried uncontrollably after seeing death.

Anyway, they themselves couldn't tell why they were crying and for whom they were crying.

"You guys, did you hear that?"

The two raised their heads: "I heard it, I heard it!"

Liu Bang grabbed their arms: "What is he shouting?"

"Thank you Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my wish."

"This sentence?"

"That's it."

The two could hear clearly that the old man actually cursed, but they knew that this was not what the officials wanted to hear.

I only picked up the second half of the sentence.

After all, the old man listened to Mazi's words and cursed out the dirty words, so he left cleanly.

Liu Bang was silent for a while: "Take the injured to the hospital quickly."

Zhong Lei quickly responded, although the Imperial City Division's Forbidden Army was only responsible for Zhao Guan's family, but at this time, they should do the logistics work.

"Li Qiong's soldiers and horses... If anyone wants to surrender, let Zhang Jun take care of them first, and no one is allowed to escape."

"Those who are unwilling to surrender will be killed on the spot without further explanation."

"Ask Xin Ciying to appease the people first, and register the household register and land register as usual."

"For those who have achieved military exploits... you should arrange for someone to check it, and you can't make any mistakes or omissions."

"Tell Han Chang to take stock of the military supplies, food and grass, as well as troops, to see how much has been lost."

"These three..."

Having said that, he waved his hand: "Let's do this first, I will handle the matter of these three people myself."

Zhong Lei all agreed, and just when he was about to turn around, he turned around and said:
"Those people..." He pointed to a group of people surrounded by imperial guards, they were the ones who rushed to the front just now, and they were separated from other people to protect them.

"How to deal with it?"

Taking a deep breath, Liu Bang whispered:

"All killed."

"Then it will be later, minister..."

"No need," Liu Bang interrupted, "At this moment, in front of everyone, kill them all."

Chong Lei was stunned for a moment, wondering why the people who had worked so hard to protect them would take their lives with great fanfare.

But since it was the emperor's wish, he didn't ask any more questions. According to his personal opinion, this was the best.Because they were indeed enemies before.

Liu Bang thought very clearly that he didn't kill just now because he didn't want to cause panic when the people ran for their lives.

For himself, he was merciful enough to the people of this city.

What is compassion?
When you have the means and ability to retaliate, you choose to stop. This is compassion.

Compassion that has neither the method nor the ability to retaliate is called cowardice.

Only when grace and power are given together can the effect of grace be maximized. Moreover, Liu Ji has never been a magnanimous person.

The screams from behind rang out again, but this time, there was no forbidden army to stand in front of these people.

The south gate was opened by Wang De's men, and Xin Ciying entered the city together with many people. Like Zhang Jun and Han Chang, they were also shocked by the horror in the city.

but……

Everyone's attention was concentrated at this moment.

On the ground full of corpses, there was a person wriggling like a bug.

When she got closer, Liu Bang realized that it was a woman, an old woman.

What's more, she seemed to be unable to see clearly, and she was crawling indiscriminately, without direction.

After taking two steps towards her, Liu Bang squatted down.

"Who are you looking for?"

The woman ignored him and reached towards him with her hand. After she felt the armor on his body clearly, she said with some confusion:
"Are you Song Jun? Why is your armor different from Marshal Li's, and different from other Song Jun?"

Admiring her ability to recognize armor, Liu Bang said:
"Li Qiong is dead, you just stay here, someone will take you home soon."

The old woman was taken aback for a moment, then laughed wildly and said:
"Marshal Li is such a hero! You youngsters can kill him?!"

"Since I have met you, I deserve this disaster! Just kill me, otherwise, when my son arrives with a knife, you will regret it later!"

"Your son should be dead too."

Liu Bang was a little indifferent, and it was even more cruel to say such things to a mother.

Sure enough, the old woman went mad immediately:

"You are talking nonsense! You are talking nonsense!"

"Don't make up my son's lies, you villain from the Southern Dynasty, you are not as good as a pig or a dog!"

She was a little hoarse, but Liu Bang didn't bother to pay attention to her, because someone else arrived next to him.

Liu Zhan walked over with a child in his arms, followed by a woman.

"His Majesty."

"Who is he?"

Liu Zhan put the child on the ground...it looked like one or two years old, and it was the time when it was cute and cute.

At this time, he seemed a little ignorant, walking unsteadily on the ground, and seemed to be in danger of falling at any time.

"He is Xin Zan's grandson, and this one is Xin Zan's daughter-in-law."

"Xin Zan's son, Xin Wenyu, led his clansmen to train secretly last year, but was discovered by Jin Bing. Although Xin Zan was quite famous in the Northland, Xin Wenyu was shot to death by Jin Bing, leaving only his wife and son. Leave it to Xin Zan to take care of."

The child finally couldn't help it, and leaned forward, which made the woman behind scream out in fright, but fortunately Liu Bang was quick and helped him up.

"how old are you?"

"He was born in May of the tenth year of Shaoxing, almost two years old."

It happened that Xin Ciying also arrived. He saw that Zhao Guan's family was teasing the child. Although he was a little speechless, he still stood aside silently, unwilling to disturb him.

"Zhu Song's son, where is he now?"

Knowing that the emperor was asking him, Xin Ciying didn't even think about it:
"Zhu Song has a close relationship with Liu Ziyu, and Sanlang Zhu is still in Lin'an, under the care of Liu Shangshu."

"Send this child to Lin'an too," Liu Bang stroked his head, "Lu Zai, Liu Ziyu, and Hu Quan are all learned people, let them teach them well."

"If Zhong Yu gave birth to a son, there must be someone to accompany him to study in the future."

Liu Zhan hurriedly saluted the emperor, of course he knew what the emperor's words meant.

The Xin family, starting from this child, will flourish in an upright manner.

The woman didn't seem to realize the importance of the matter, but Liu Zhan reminded her before she remembered Xie En.

"The official family..."

Seeing the emperor stood up and made a gesture to leave, Liu Zhan called him to stop again.

"What else?"

"That..." Liu Zhan paused, and then said, "The child doesn't have an official name yet, so you can choose one."

Children are not easy to raise. When they are young, they are called by nicknames. Only when they are older can they have a formal name.

This also makes sense.

"Well... I like Liu Che's Huo Qubing very much. It was a real disease that killed the Han Dynasty."

"Then, how about you call him Qiji?"

Liu Bang touched his little face, the child didn't know what happened, and his eyes were wide open, looking at the adults in front of him.

"I hope that one day you can also help me and abandon this disease of the Song Dynasty and the disease of the Han people forever."
