Obtain the divine power at the beginning
Chapter 626 and Feng Xing
Everyone was shocked and asked, "Miss Tang, what's wrong?"
Suddenly, everyone understood. They were all rich men, with three wives and four concubines. They all understood what was going on in Tang Meiling's mind.
Tang Meiling covered her face with tears and ran away.
Sad, very sad indeed.
The dream of becoming Mrs. Shi and becoming a fairy couple with Shi Tianyu, practicing monogamy, has been shattered.
~
Yao Luyang also understood in his heart: his beloved daughter was unwilling to accept that Shi Tianyu had multiple wives.
But, haven’t all rich and powerful men been like this throughout the ages?
Could it be that Yao had hurt the mother and daughter too deeply in the past?
If you want to marry a man who can only marry one woman in his life, then you can only find a mediocre man.
Hey! Ling'er's marriage, it seems that this life will not be easy.
Maybe she's been spoiled by me too much.
~
Qian Youyu and Jiang Zaixing looked at each other and walked to Tang Meiling's door together.
Jiang Zaixing said loudly: "Hey, Brother Qian, how many wives and concubines do you have?"
Qian Youyu also said loudly: "About 17 or 18 people, many of whom are outside, I can't remember their names. Brother Jiang, how about you?"
Jiang Zaixing said with a smile: "I only have eight or nine brothers. Haha, I'm sorry to make you laugh, Brother Qian."
Qian Youyu pretended to be surprised and said, "No way? Brother Jiang, you are so rich, but you only have nine wives and concubines? Isn't that too few? Why save so much money? If you don't enjoy it while you are alive, the money will become waste copper and rotten iron after you die. Which rich and powerful man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? My brother Jiang, you should marry a few more wives and have more children. In the future, choose the best heirs from among your children to inherit your property."
Jiang Zaixing pretended to be modest and said, "That's right, Brother Qian is right! I have already picked out several marriage proposals, and they will be held on August 15, September 19, and Laba Festival this year. Soon, I will surpass Brother Qian."
The two men were talking nonsense, but they were actually telling Tang Meiling in the room, and were also teaching her to adapt to the world. They were also hinting to Tang Meiling: General Shi is rich and powerful, brave and healthy, how could he stay with a woman like you, Tang Meiling, for his whole life? Even if General Shi is willing to stay with a woman like you for his whole life, would other beautiful girls let General Shi go?
Hehe, do you think General Shi is Wu Dalang?
~
indoor.
Tang Meiling was extremely sad. She had kept a close eye on Shi Tianyu in the past just to find out about his feelings.
However, Shi Tianyu's emotional affairs have now surfaced. Tang Meiling understands the truth and does not need Qian Youyu and Jiang Zaixing to talk nonsense. However, Tang Meiling cannot accept it.
According to the rank of wives, she could only be Shi Tianyu's concubine.
Eh!
~
"Lord Dai is here!" a loud shout came from outside the mansion.
It was Xun Jinchi who led Dai Kun, Xiang Laixiang, Hua Tiandi, Fang Shizhong, Wang Chao and others in.
All the merchants bowed hurriedly to greet Dai Kun and others.
Dai Kun waved to the merchants, sat down in the hall of Yao's house, and explained his purpose to Yao Luyang, saying, "Oh, Mr. Yao, the house is so lively! Oh, Mr. Yao, congratulations on your old age. Lord Fu always remembers Miss Tang and asked me to visit Mr. Yao!" Yao Luyang and other merchants were shocked when they heard this, and asked in unison, "What? What? This?!"
Yao Chaohai hurriedly slipped away secretly to look for Shi Tianyu. In the past two days, there was no movement of soldiers inside and outside the city. Shi Tianyu should still be in Chengdu City. He had to find Shi Tianyu as soon as possible and let Shi Tianyu come forward to calm the incident.
Tang Meiling was angry and took the opportunity to climb out of the window. Her thoughts and actions were the same as Yao Chaohai's.
~
In the hall, Xiang Laixiang hurriedly acted as a matchmaker for Fu Xing, saying with a smile, "Mr. Yao, this is a great thing. First, it shows that Mr. Fu values love and friendship, and still loves Miss Tang. Second, Mr. Fu is young and promising, holds a high position, and is the nephew of the Ninth Prince."
"Alas!" How could Yao Luyang dare to say anything? Even the governor Dai Kun had come forward, this matter was really difficult to handle.
Right now, he didn't even have the chance to go out and find Shi Tianyu to report the news.
Yao Luyang was extremely depressed. He sighed deeply and fell into the chair.
~
Fang Shizhong quickly seized the opportunity and stepped forward and said, "Since Mr. Yao has agreed, why not send your daughter to Meizhou to marry Mr. Fu tonight and hold a wedding banquet again?"
Yao Luyang didn't say anything, but turned sideways and glared at Xun Jinchi. It was all Xun Jinchi's fault.
Inwardly, he sighed: If I had not accepted Xun Jinchi, this bad disciple, how wonderful the Yao family would be! Oh! What a pity, my kindness was not rewarded. Back then, I pitied Xun Jinchi and was homeless on the streets. I kindly took him in, but ended up inviting a wolf into the house. Oh!
~
Xun Jinchi stood aside trembling with fear, how could he dare to look his master in the eye?
Yao Luyang closed his eyes and cried silently.
How dare the merchants persuade him?
They didn't know whether to sit or walk, and all of them looked embarrassed.
~
"General Shi is here!"
At this moment, outside the Yao Mansion, Yao Lin, the housekeeper of the Yao Mansion, shouted.
Everyone's heart sank, and they all stood up and trotted out of the hall to greet them.
Shi Tianyu, accompanied by Zhang Jiaxuan, Li Zhenhai, Murongsheng, Luo Baozhong, "Dudu" and other people and the magic dog, strode in with a dashing demeanor. Tang Meiling escaped through the window, and Yao Chaohai, who had just run out of the house to find someone to report the news, hurriedly came back. The brother and sister walked behind Shi Tianyu and his party and followed into the main hall of the Yao family.
Seeing that all the merchants were there, Shi Tianyu sang to the wind and moon, using poetry to express his feelings, saying: "In the sound of autumn leaves, the setting sun shines on thousands of houses. Dear shopkeepers, autumn is here, and autumn is the season of harvest!"
What I mean is that all the shop owners have to support Mr. Shi!
I am under a lot of pressure due to the post-war reconstruction, and I would like to trouble you to provide me with financial support.
~
The breeze is cool and pleasant.
When he stepped into the hall, Shi Tianyu was startled to see Dai Kun, Xiang Laixiang and others there.
Xiang Laixiang and others hurried over and bowed to greet them.
Dai Kun naturally would not bow to his son-in-law, so he just stood aside.
Shi Tianyu nodded towards Laixiang and the others, waved his hand, and signaled them to move aside.
Now, the most important thing is to win the support of all merchants.
~
Gao Jianguang stepped forward and said loudly, "Master Shi, we know that the war is about to end. With your love for the people, you will surely comfort the people and keep the country safe. Therefore, we have come together to express our gratitude to you. This is the donation we have raised together, a total of 360,000 taels of silver, of which Mr. Yao donated 100,000 taels of silver. Please accept it, Master."
After that, he took out the list of donors and banknotes from his wide sleeves and handed them to Shi Tianyu, and emphasized the amount of Yao Luyang's donation. He hoped that Shi Tianyu would be able to save the Yao family and Tang Meiling later.
Gao Jianguang then whispered, "Dai Kun, Xiang Laixiang and their gang are here to force Mr. Yao to marry his daughter Tang Meiling to Fu Xing. They will send Miss Tang to Meizhou to marry Fu Xing later." After saying that, he bowed and left.
~
Shi Tianyu was furious when he heard this, but he did not show it. Instead, he accepted the banknote and handed it to Li Zhenhai. He said to Li Zhenhai, "This money will first be deposited into the account of the Three Provinces Governor's Office, and then transferred to the Sichuan Provincial Administration Office as the start-up funds for the post-war reconstruction of Sichuan. Part of it will be allocated to the Chengdu government office. Please also ask Mr. Zhang Jiaxuan, the Chief Justice, to supervise its use."
Dai Kun was overjoyed and quickly complimented him, "General Shi really distinguishes between public and private affairs and abides by the law."
Xiang Laixiang, Fang Shizhong and others hurriedly bowed to flatter Shi Tianyu, praising Shi Tianyu as an honest and good official who was dedicated to serving the people.
~
The upright Zhang Jiaxuan immediately ordered his followers to record it.
He always carries civil servants and the four treasures of the study with him.
~
Shi Tianyu ignored Dai Kun, Xiang Laixiang and others, and said to the merchants: "Thank you for your support to the three provincial governors. The war has caused mines and farmland to be abandoned. I have asked people to draft a plan in the past two days to recover your losses. I also hope that everyone will vigorously develop handicrafts to make the people rich. Thank you for your support, and please come to the northwest to invest and start a business. As long as you come to the northwest, you will be exempted from taxes for three years and subsidized for rent."
When Qian Youyu, Jiang Zaixing, Gao Jianguang and others heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up and they all bowed to express their gratitude.
Tang Meiling had tears in her eyes. She quietly reached out and held Shi Tianyu's hand. It was her turn to deal with her affairs.
~
Shi Tianyu glanced at Tang Meiling and found that she looked a little haggard and thin, so he said tenderly: "Miss Tang, you and your father lurked in the residence of the so-called Prime Minister Li Zhiyong of the rebels to quell the rebellion, and provided a lot of valuable and practical information to the officials and soldiers of the court. Thank you for your hard work! The 600 soldiers and horses I sent to your mansion not only show the determination of the Three Provincial Governor's Office to defend the Yao family, but also make it clear that anyone who interferes with your mansion and the law-abiding merchants in Sichuan will be killed first and reported later by these 600 soldiers and horses."
The meaning is very clear, Dai Kun has no right to come and disturb the Yao family.
The entire Yao family, Qian Youyu and other wealthy businessmen were all very excited and their eyes were filled with tears when they heard this.
Dai Kun, Xiang Laixiang, Hua Tiandi, Xun Jinchi, Wang Chao and others looked at each other.
~
After praising the Yao family and improving their status, Wang Chao and others were targeted.
Then, Shi Tianyu shouted again: "Come here, please take out the imperial sword. After investigation, Wang Chao, Fang Shizhong, Xun Jinchi, and Hua Tiandi, four thieves, colluded with the remnants of the Mahayana sect, attacked Chengdu, and committed many evil things. In order to please Wang Haoxian and Li Zhiyong, they were willing to castrate themselves as eunuchs to please Wang Haoxian and Li Zhiyong, and took the initiative to offer their families to Wang Haoxian and Li Zhiyong for their entertainment. They are really despicable and shameless. After the court suppressed the rebellion, Wang Chao and other criminals frequently transmitted intelligence to the rebels and leaked our military secrets. The three provincial governors' offices decided to execute Wang Chao, Hua Tiandi, Xun Jinchi, and Fang Shizhong on the spot, chop off their heads and show them to the public, and immediately execute them, and feed their remains to the dogs."
~
Fang Shizhong, Wang Chao, Hua Tiandi, and Xun Jinchi were so frightened that they fell to their knees and begged for mercy in a trembling voice: "Please spare my life! General Shi, I did not do that! I am innocent! General Shi, please spare my life!"
Dai Kun hurried forward and wanted to say something.
"Hmph!" Shi Tianyu snorted coldly, let go of Tang Meiling's hand, and turned away.
Li Zhenhai and Murong Sheng also led the crowd away.
~
In Yao's mansion.
Zhang Jiaxuan wanted to persuade Shi Tianyu, but when he heard Shi Tianyu ask for the imperial sword, he did not dare to stop him. He took a step forward and took three steps back.
Luo Baozhong and others watched coldly and had long wanted to chop off the heads of treacherous villains such as Wang Chao, Hua Tiandi, Fang Shizhong, Xun Jinchi and so on.
~
"Dudu" he drew his sword and started chopping.
Click!
Boom!
The heads of Wang Chao, Hua Tiandi, Fang Shizhong and Xun Jinchi fell to the ground, and their four bodies collapsed with a thud, leaving a pool of blood.
Shi Tianyu gave face to Dai Kun and tolerated Wang Chao and others for a long time.
Now, Wang Chao and others have gone to Yao's mansion to cause trouble again. If they are not killed, it will be difficult to quell the public anger.
How can we carry out post-war reconstruction without protecting the interests of the Shang Dynasty?
~
Boom!
Dai Kun and Xiang Laixiang were so frightened that they fell to the ground, both of them were sweating profusely and had wet their pants, like two piles of mud.
Luo Baozhong waved his hand, signaling his personal soldiers to carry Dai Kun and Xiang Laixiang out. He also signaled his personal soldiers to help clean up the Yao Mansion and throw the remains of Hua Tiandi, Wang Chao, Fang Shizhong, and Xun Jinchi out to feed the dogs.
~
The merchants felt as if they had taken a reassurance pill, and they all sat down, wiping their sweat.
Zhang Jiaxuan was grateful for Shi Tianyu's support, so he ordered the accompanying civil servants to immediately issue a notice, organize scholars to copy it, and post it throughout the city. He also ordered the accompanying staff to send people to deliver some notices to various prefectures and states, and have them copy and post them, thus announcing the crimes of the four thieves Wang Chao, Hua Tiandi, Fang Shizhong, and Xun Jinchi.
It is more legal, compliant and powerful to have the evidence of guilt announced by the Supreme Court.
After Qian Youyu sat for a while, his legs stopped shaking so much, so he took the initiative to invite all the merchants to have dinner at the nearby Mulberry Leaf Inn.
After lunch, Qian Youyu and others hired some servants, maids and bodyguards to protect the Yao Mansion, trying their best to please Yao Luyang.
After lunch, Tang Meiling went to look for Shi Tianyu again, but found that he was gone. The gatekeepers of every government office said that they had not seen General Shi since lunch, and they thought that General Shi had gone to the countryside to inspect and understand the people's sentiments.
~
The night is cool as water, and the moon is dimly shining.
Tang Meiling sat alone in the hall, crying silently. There seemed to be a mist between her brows and her expression was a melancholy blue. She thought: Shi Tianyu quelled the rebellion of the remnants of the Mahayana sect in the three provinces within two months. The speed was indescribable and it seemed effortless.
In the future, will Shi Tianyu really lead his troops to Shanhaiguan?
Is it really time for Shi Tianyu and I to come to blows?
Is it true that our Great Jin Kingdom is no match for Shi Tianyu?
……
~
The autumn night wind is a little cool.
In the backyard of Long'an government office, Xu Guan had another sleepless night.
His heart was lifted up and blown down again and again by the autumn wind, as if it had lost consciousness.
There was no fighting between the rebels and the Ming army these days, but Xu Guan still heard bad news: the two cities that the rebels were defending alone had been besieged for a long time, and there were constant incidents of soldiers stealing food, and countless villagers were becoming more and more disgusted with the rebels.
From time to time, people from the martial arts world would sneak away.
His most capable "confidant" Wang Biao had also been completely shaken, and kept telling him to abandon the city and escape quickly.
Ugh!
~
There was a crescent moon hanging in the sky, the light was dim.
The autumn wind made the branches sway and the leaves began to fall.
"Bang! Ouch!" Xu Guan lowered his head to think, and unexpectedly bumped into the tree trunk in front of him, resulting in a blister on his forehead.
"Report!"
Just as Xu Guan touched his painful forehead, the guard hurried over and knelt down to report: "My lord, something terrible has happened. The Ming army's Shi Tianyu, Li Zhenhai, Murong Sheng, and Luo Baozhong suddenly attacked our army camp in Jingzhou. Our army suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining troops fled and their whereabouts are unknown. Currently, the gates of Jingzhou have been opened, and the people are free to enter and exit, and industrial and commercial trade has been carried out normally."
Upon hearing the news, Xu Guan took a deep breath, stepped back several steps, and asked in a trembling voice: "What? What? What? What's going on?" So now there is only one lonely city left, Long'an Prefecture. Can it still be defended? Can it still be defended? Shi Tianyu always descends from the sky, always appears and disappears, and always uses his troops like a god. Hey!
~
The guard supported Xu Guan and reported the cause of the incident to him, bowing and saying, "My Lord Xu, it is said that the soldiers of Zhong Wanqiang's army robbed food and massacred the villagers. Some martial arts heroes were dissatisfied. They said that the rebel army was far inferior to the Ming army. Under the command of Shi Tianyu, the Ming army always comforted the people and benefited the people wherever they went, allocated funds and food to the villagers, and set up schools for the villagers. However, the rebel army massacred the people. Therefore, many martial arts heroes sneaked away at night. At present, Beigong Bo, Zhong Wanqiang, Zhao Jianfa and others are all missing." Wang Biao waved to the guard, then reminded Xu Guan, saying, "My Lord, let's go quickly. As long as we have the green mountains, we will not be afraid of running out of firewood." Xu Guan asked dejectedly, "Go? Where else can we go? Can we still go?"
Wang Biao hurriedly offered a suggestion, saying, "My lord, at worst, we can just pretend to be refugees and run away. Wang Haoxian is the emperor of the Mahayana Xingsheng Dynasty, and he can do it, so what can we do? Let's run away, saving our lives is the most important thing."
Having said that, it was indeed difficult to speak, and I stammered and didn't say any more.
~
Xu Guan laughed desolately, "Haha! Do you want me to learn from Li Zhiyong and Wang Haoxian? Haha! Think about what a hero my father was! He would rather die than surrender, and was captured when the city was broken, and his family of 18 was buried alive. How could I tarnish my father's heroic name? Haha!"
After saying this, he looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, his laughter was very sad and miserable.
Wang Biao still tried to persuade him earnestly: "My lord, we can still make a comeback. Shi Tianyu has not led his troops to our Long'an City. I think he is considering our friendship and intends to let us go. Let's go while it's dark."
Xu Guan shook his head and said, "Wang Biao, you are wrong. Shi Tianyu didn't come because he wants to defeat the enemy without fighting. Shi Tianyu wants to win the hearts of the people by comforting the people, maintaining peace in the country, and running schools. If our city gates had not been closed tightly, the people in the city would have fled to his side long ago." Yangtian sighed and analyzed the reasons why Shi Tianyu had not led his troops here yet.
~
Wang Biao argued awkwardly, saying, "Shi Tianyu always uses the same old tricks. He doesn't have any new ideas. His brain is really filled with water."
Xu Guan smiled and said, "Shi Tianyu is always right. The people's hearts are like water, which can carry a boat, but can also capsize it. The reason we were defeated was that we were too eager to become king and did not work hard to win the hearts of the people. The people from the martial arts world who gathered temporarily were eager for quick success and instant benefits. Once they captured a city, they robbed food and money. They did all kinds of evil and were morally corrupt. Alas!" After another analysis, he let out another long sigh.
Wang Biao had nothing to say anymore. He wanted to curse Shi Tianyu, but he didn't have the words to do so. He had already cursed Shi Tianyu.
However, he has never been a match for Shi Tianyu!
~
"Report!" At this time, another guard hurried over.
Wang Biao shouted, "What's the matter?"
The guard bowed and said, "My lord, the Ming army is attacking the city. Shi, Shi, Shi Tianyu came at some point, and now he is personally raiding the battlefield. The Ming army's attack is fierce, and each time they fire arrows, they fire tens of thousands of arrows. Those arrows were made by us."
When reporting military intelligence, when he mentioned the three words "Shi Tianyu", his voice trembled, his legs went weak, and he even wet his pants.
"Haha!" Xu Guan laughed out loud again, his heart completely chilled.
"My lord!" At this time, Pan Dong came running over with sweat all over his forehead.
Wang Biao remained silent, knowing that he had no chance of escape now.
Xu Guan also knew that his doomsday was coming, so he calmed down. He thought that he was going to die anyway, so what else was there to be afraid of?
So Xu Guan said calmly: "Let's go to the top of the South Gate and take a look."
~
The lights on and off the city of Long'an were bright, as if it were daytime.
Arrows rained back and forth between the two armies.
From time to time, rebel soldiers were shot by arrows and fell off the city wall, and the water splashed was all blood red.
The Ming army had more troops and more arrows, and they erected shield mountains in front of them to block the arrows.
The Ming army responsible for shooting arrows in the back used a covering strategy, shooting tens of thousands of arrows each time, but there were no casualties.
On the contrary, the rebels on the city walls were shot by arrows and fell into the moat from time to time, and the screams were endless.
The smell of blood is pungent and the stench of corpses is unbearable.
Even the moat was piled with corpses.
After several rounds of arrow rain from the Ming army, there were only a few rebel soldiers left on the city wall of Long'an Prefecture.
The Ming army outside the city, with flags flying, surrounded the entire Long'an City like an iron barrel. This was the last battle to suppress the rebellion. Shi Tianyu assembled an army of 60,000 and came here in a show of force. It was not for fighting, but just to show off. It was that simple.
If they wanted to fight, Shi Tianyu would have sent people to infiltrate the city as an insider, and then cooperate with the enemy from inside and outside.
but.
Shi Tianyu came here just to show off his strength.
~
At this time, Shi Tianyu was dressed in white, riding a white rabbit horse, holding a golden shield in his left hand and a Fang Tian Huaji in his right hand.
The golden shield shone with a sharp light, and the crescent blade on the Fang Tian Huaji was sharp and dazzling, which was particularly eye-catching.
To his left is Luo Baozhong, the "Little Handsome Tiger," in white robe and with silver spear.
On her right is the "Fire Phoenix" Jiang Meilin, dressed in red and holding a sword that is shining with cold light.
On the left and right are Song Ziqing and Liu Laifu, both old friends.
But the old friendship is no longer there, and what is left is now a fight between the two armies.
Xu Guanxin felt a surge of emotion and sadness.
~
Shi Tianyu looked up and saw Xu Guan, Wang Biao and Pan Dong appear on the top of the city wall, so he raised his Fang Tian Huaji and slashed it down diagonally.
The rain of arrows from the Ming army soldiers suddenly stopped.
Xu Guan also waved to the scattered rebel soldiers on the top of the city.
Both sides stopped firing arrows.
~
Song Ziqing then jumped on his horse and came over, less than ten feet away from the city.
Wang Biao drew his bow and arrow, intending to assassinate Song Ziqing.
Xu Guan said in a low voice: "This man is Song Ziqing, now the Tongzhi of Baoning Prefecture. He came here alone to speak. In the past, Song Ziqing and I were best friends, and Song Ziqing is indeed a friend worth making friends with. He is a good person, and you cannot hurt him."
Wang Biao had no choice but to put down his bow and arrow in disappointment.
Song Ziqing stopped his horse and said in a loud voice: "Xu Guan, oh, no, it's Brother Chen Biao. I haven't seen you for a few months, and your hair has turned completely white. Do you remember the delicious meals Miss Hui'er prepared for us?"
Just as Xu Guan expected, Song Ziqing came alone on horseback to speak.
Song Ziqing used the old title and mentioned the old friend.
When Xu Guan heard this, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Wang Biao supported Xu Guan, pointed his finger at Song Ziqing and cursed: "Song Ziqing, you followed the dead butcher named Shi and now come to slaughter your former brothers? You will not die well. You are really a piece of shit!" He cursed as if Song Ziqing was the one who was wrong.
~
Liu Laifu rode up on his horse, holding the Jiuzhou copper stick, pointing it at Wang Biao on the top of the city wall, and shouted loudly, "Chen Biao, you, Pan Dong, and Tang Guan were all under Lord Shi in the past. You were promoted the fastest, the most trusted by Lord Shi, and the one who ate the most meals cooked by Miss Hui'er. I never thought that the person who betrayed Lord Shi was the person Lord Shi trusted the most. Think about it carefully, are you worthy of Lord Shi? Who is the butcher? Who is the ruthless person?"
At this time, Ma Dehui rode up again, raised his hand and pointed at Xu Guan on the top of the city wall, and said, "Xu Guan, do you know why Lord Shi left you in the Fucheng government office before he came to Beijing last time?" The hearts of Xu Guan, Wang Biao, Pan Dong and others began to beat wildly.
They were a little surprised by Shi Tianyu's behavior before, but they didn't think about it too much.
Sometimes, I just thought that Shi Tianyu trusted them the most at that time.
At this time, Ma Dehui mentioned this matter, which touched their minds and made them listen attentively involuntarily.
~
Xu Guan, Pan Dong and Wang Biao listened attentively, all wanting to know what was going on.
"Swoosh!" At this moment, the three people behind Shi Tianyu drew their bows and arrows, each with one bow and three arrows, and shot directly towards the top of the city.
These three people are none other than Kou Yanming, Li Zhenhai and Murong Sheng, the three great masters of the capital.
The arrow was like a meteor, fast, fierce, powerful and accurate, flying through the sky.
"Boom!"
"You! You! Are! So! Vicious!"
Xu Guan never dreamed that Shi Tianyu would come up with such a series of tricks, using old friends, old names, and whetting appetites, hiding the sudden attack of the three great masters of the capital. He raised his finger and pointed at Ma Dehui, and fell down before he finished speaking.
Xu Guan, Wang Biao and Pan Dong were all shot by arrows at the same time.
~
"Whizzing!"
After Kou Yanming, Li Zhenhai and Murong Sheng shot nine arrows, the six thousand Jinyiwei cavalrymen beside them all held Ma Jun crossbows and fired continuously. The arrows were fast! The force was fierce! The aim was accurate!
In an instant, thirty thousand arrows were shot out, covering the rebel soldiers who were watching intently on the top of the city wall.
The rebel soldiers on the city wall were concentrating on listening to the conversation between the two generals. They did not expect that the Ming army would suddenly fire a volley of arrows. Before they could react, they fell down holding their chests.
Shi Tianyu raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji and shouted, "Kill!"
Kou Yanming, Li Zhenhai and Murong Sheng jumped off their horses, flew to the top of the city wall, lowered the drawbridge, ran down again and opened the city gate.
The 60,000 infantry and cavalry of the Ming army shouted in unison: "A hundred battles in the yellow sand have worn away our golden armor, and Shi Lang's ingenious plan has brought peace to the world." They jumped over the piles of corpses in the moat and poured into the city like a tide, opening their granaries to release grain and distributing money and food to the people in the city.
Suddenly, the people in the city cheered and shouted: "Yellow sand has worn golden armor after a hundred battles, and Shi Lang's clever plan has brought peace to the world!"
The rebel soldiers in the city had been killed by the rain of arrows just now. How could they resist? How could they resist?
However, the shouts of the Ming army soldiers themselves, the sounds of gongs and drums, and the neighing of horses also resounded through the sky.
Pan Dong was shot in the throat and died.
Xu Guan was shot in the left eye and left chest. His head hit the ground with his right eye wide open, and he died with his eyes open.
Wang Biao was shot in the eyes, ears, nose, mouth and throat, and his eyes were blind. I don’t know whether he died with his eyes open.
Song Ziqing, Liu Laifu, Ma Dehui and others ran up to the city wall and surrounded the bodies of Xu Guan and Pan Dong.
Thinking about the friendship in the past, I feel filled with emotion.
Thinking about being deceived by Xu Guan, he wished he could kill Xu Guan with his own hands.
~
At this time, Cen Zhan also flew over and swung his sword.
"Crack!"
Cen Zhan had already chopped off the heads of Xu Guan, Pan Dong and Wang Biao.
Crack! At this time, other soldiers went up to the top of the city wall and chopped off the heads of the rebel soldiers with their swords, and took them to register.
Soon, outside the south gate of the city and along the city wall, the heads of rebel soldiers were hung.
Shi Tianyu, together with Jiang Meilin, and accompanied by Kou Yanming, Li Zhenhai, Murong Sheng and others, went to the top of the city wall.
Luo Baozhong rode his horse straight to the government treasury and granary to check the money and grain.
What he wanted to do most was to open the granaries, release grain, and do good deeds.
~
Seeing Shi Tianyu walking up the city wall, Song Ziqing and other soldiers hurriedly moved aside.
Shi Tianyu glanced at the remains of Xu Guan and Pan Dong, then turned to Dai Yugang and said, "Master Dai, you will immediately take up the post of the new prefect of Long'an Prefecture. I will come here to inspect in half a month. I want to see that the villagers have houses to live in, food to eat, clothes to wear, and a school. Otherwise, you will get out."
"Yes!" Dai Yuguang bowed happily and left.
Dongfang Xiao, the "Two Elders of Xuanming", "Five Qians", Shao Qicong and others came to Shi Tianyu, clasped their fists, bowed and said goodbye to Shi Tianyu. The rebellion was over, and they were going back to Kyoto and back to the Jinyiwei Office.
~
Shi Tianyu ordered Kou Yanming to go to the government treasury immediately to withdraw some silver and give each of the masters 10,000 taels of silver to thank them for accompanying him along the way, leading the way in killing the enemies, and making great contributions to the suppression of the rebellion.
There must be a lot of money and grain in Long'an Prefecture.
Because Xu Guan, Wang Biao and Pan Dong fled here.
Because there must be a huge amount of money and grain hidden here, Xu Guan thought of coming here in an attempt to make a comeback.
Unexpectedly, these money and grain became the funds for Shi Tianyu's post-war reconstruction.
After seeing off Dongfang Xiao and others, Jiang Meilin also said goodbye to Shi Tianyu.
She said she wanted to return to Kyoto to visit her parents and report to them on the progress of the rebellion.
Shi Tianyu nodded in agreement, and ordered Luo Baozhong to accompany Jiang Meilin back to Kyoto, and ordered Kou Yanming to give Luo Baozhong and Jiang Meilin each one thousand taels of silver as travel expenses.
Luo Baozhong participated in the suppression of the rebellion not in order to become an official, but because he was kind-hearted and hoped to put an end to the war as soon as possible. He also had no ambition to become an official.
His biggest wish is to find the whereabouts of his beloved Zhao Minna.
~
The breeze is whispering softly.
The rebellion was successfully suppressed. Shi Tianyu withdrew 500,000 taels of silver and 2 million shi of grain from the 1 million taels of silver and 3 million shi of grain stored in Xuguan of Long'an Prefecture, and escorted them to Xi'an Prefecture.
As Dai Kun guessed, Shi Tianyu's main official duty this time was in the northwest, where he was planning to build the Three Provinces Governor's Office in Xi'an.
Post-war reconstruction is a far more arduous task than suppressing the rebellion.
The Northwest has been experiencing drought for nine out of ten years in recent decades, with large tracts of farmland lying barren and a sparse population.
Attracting population return is an important measure of Shi Tianyu's administration.
In order to attract population return, it is necessary to develop the economy and invite some wealthy businessmen from the south of the Yangtze River to come and invest and start businesses.
Shi Tianyu selected an inn in the city and ordered He Baofu, the governor of Shaanxi Province, to build a wall for him. He then rented an inn and simply opened the Three Provinces Governor's Office, setting an example for the officials here and setting an example of integrity.
The 500,000 taels of silver and 2 million dan of grain were handed over to He Baofu for storage, registration, and approval.
After hearing that Shi Tianyu had put down the rebellion, Tang Meiling did not stay in Sichuan, but went to Xi'an Prefecture to open the Three Provinces Governor's Office, and hurriedly rode here to track down Shi Tianyu's whereabouts. Even if she could not marry Shi Tianyu, she had to get a lot of information from him.
Anyway, some purpose has to be achieved.
