Chapter 764
"Old Master, I will kill Liu Zeqing in the last battle!" Hao Yaoqi walked into Li Guodong's central army tent with Liu Zeqing's head.
"Okay, General Hao, you will make your contribution today!" Li Guodong said with a smile, "I will report to Your Majesty to you to remember great achievements and will also be granted the title of marquis in the future."
"Master, you must not. If the last general is granted a title of uncle, wouldn't it be the same as you? Isn't it a title of marquis, which is higher than you?" Hao Yaoqi stared at the shock and shook his head.
"Hahaha!" Wang Chengen, Zhang Shuheng, Han Dashan and others on the side laughed.
Wang Chengen smiled and said, "General Hao, the contributions made by our uncle this time are enough to be granted the title of Duke and Marquis. When the emperor arrives in Nanjing, he will be granted the title of Duke and Marquis to him."
Hao Yaoqi suddenly remembered an important thing: "Brother, Liu Zeqing, the thief, was about to leave, and he rushed to jump over the wall. He lit a fire in Wang Yongji's Butterfly Garden and lit the Butterfly Garden. Fortunately, he was about to go in time and the fire was already under control."
"Okay! General Hao did a good job," Li Guodong nodded, then turned to Wang Chengen and Zhang Shuheng, "Eunuch Wang, Zhang Dusi, why don't you enter the city quickly? Seal the Butterfly Garden and give everyone there. Also, don't let Wang Yongji go to the nine clans in the city, and don't kill him. But the house is raided. Your Majesty is still waiting to use the silver when he arrives in Nanjing."
The emperor had already made a lot of money, but the more he had, the better. Wang Chengen said in his heart, and he laughed: "Okay, let's take the monkeys into the city!"
Liu Zeqing was killed, and all the remnants of the Liu family army in Gaoyou City had surrendered, leaving only the servants of the gentry in the nine tribes of the Wang family to resist stubbornly, but the servants of these gentry were no match for the regular army? When they met the Huai Army, they were killed like a melon and cut vegetables, and they had no power to fight back.
The Huai Army had almost no casualties against the gentry and servants, and the number of casualties was zero, and there were not many injuries.
The invulnerable iron-armored soldiers opened the way in front, followed by crossbowmen and gunmen, which was invincible. The gentry courtyards were broken by the Huai army. After the Huai army soldiers broke through the gentry courtyard, they ignored the courtyard and just asked the auxiliary soldiers to come up and tied up all the surrendered servants.
"Brothers, the Huai Army soldiers have left, and we are here to control it." said an auxiliary soldier adapted from the captives of the former Liu Zeqing Army.
Another auxiliary soldier beside him asked, "He Laoliu, what do you mean?"
"I mean, these gentry colluded with salt merchants, and their families were filled with gold and silver. When would we not do anything at this time? "He Laoliu said with a blood-red eyes. His eyes fell on a little maid. Although the little maid lowered her head, she knew she was a little beauty with her slender eyelashes and graceful figure. "And women! How beautiful! Brothers, we had enough hard life under Liu Ni before, and now we have followed Wu Weibo, why not take the opportunity to steal him?"
These auxiliary soldiers who had just participated in the siege and assisted the soldiers to capture Gaoyou City were all captured by Liu Zeqing's rebel generals. Before, Liu Zeqing robbed him from Shandong to Xuzhou, but the real benefits were Liu Zeqing's servants and elite soldiers. These soldiers who were thrown outside by Liu Zeqing when he was guarding Gaoyou were all suffering from the bitterness that he could not even drink soup. Now when he saw the luxurious gardens in Gaoyou, they all had bad thoughts.
"Brothers, come on!" He Laoliu shouted.
These soldiers who were originally bandit soldiers were in chaos. In just a short time, the garden had become a hell on earth. The bandit soldiers rushed into the house, searched for gold, silver and treasures, and cried everywhere in the garden. He Laoliu's first target was the little maid he just took a fancy to.
"Hahaha! Little beauty, don't be afraid! You follow me, I am from Wuweibo, and I will make you delicious and delicious in the future." He Laoliu stretched out his dirty hands, and the little maid screamed in fear, desperately trying to block He Laoliu's clutch, but her strength was nowhere to be as strong as He Laoliu, and she was subdued in a blink of an eye.
Seeing that she was about to be humiliated, the little maid couldn't help but burst into tears. She shouted desolately: "Help! Help!"
"Little beauty, even if you screamed, no one would pay attention to you. Just be honest with me!" He Laoliu smiled grimly.
Just as He Laoliu was about to tear the little maid's clothes, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, and then he felt a severe pain in his chest. He lowered his head and saw a bloody knife stabbing out of his chest.
"Rull the soldiers! Kill without mercy!" Zhang Shuheng drew out the Xiuchun sword and shouted at the top of his voice.
A group of Jinyiwei and Dongchang Fanzi rushed into the bandits and fell with their swords. The bandits who were robbing were chopped over and overturned one by one by one in a pool of blood.
"Master Dusi, isn't this the house you want to confiscate?" A bandit soldier who was chopped over to the ground and had not yet died of anger asked with unwillingness.
"Rareless!" Zhang Shuheng stepped on the bandit soldier's chest, "This is the rebel family that Your Majesty wants to confiscate! All the things here, gold, silver, treasures, food, including women and children, are His Majesty's wealth! Only when Your Majesty says you reward you will you be qualified to take it. You rob your Majesty yourself, that is, you will rob Your Majesty's property! Death is to be accused of the crime!"
After saying that, Zhang Shuheng raised his sword and fell, the embroidered spring sword slashed a white rainbow, and the bandit soldier's head rolled to the ground.
Wang Chengen said with approval: "Zhang Dusi, do you even dare to kill Wuweibo's soldiers?"
Of course, Zhang Shuheng knew that these soldiers were actually Liu Zeqing's prisoners, not real soldiers of the Huai Army. The Huai Army had strict military discipline and such a thing could not happen. But he had a firm face and replied loudly: "Eunuch Wang, Xiaguan only knows that everything here belongs to His Majesty! No matter who he is, as long as he dares to steal His Majesty's property, he will be killed without mercy!"
"Okay! OK! OK!" Wang Chengen said three words "Okay" in a row: "Zhang Dusi is indeed loyal to the emperor! Good thing! Our family will explain to Wuwei Bo."
The Jinyiwei and the Dongchang Fanzi cleaned up the riots and broke into the gentry garden. They first tied everyone away and waited for treatment. Then they rushed into rooms, rummaged through boxes and cabinets, found boxes of gold, silver and treasures, opened the warehouse, and found food.
Zhang Shuheng and Wang Chengen took the two thousand Jinyiwei and the five hundred Dongchang men to search the homes of gentry one after another, and finally came to Wang Yongji's Butterfly Garden.
Because Hao Yaoqi put out the fire in time, the fire in Butterfly Garden has been put out, and the loss is not very large.
Zhang Shuheng walked into the Butterfly Garden. The originally luxurious and magnificent Butterfly Garden is now in a mess. Although the losses are not big, there are still many houses, pavilions and towers are burned to the point of being broken. In the peach blossom forest, some peach trees are burned to the point of being dark and dead branches. In addition, a burned pavilion next to it looks very unsightly.
The Huai Army officers and soldiers formed a circle around, with the men and women of the Wang family sitting in the middle. The men sat on the ground sighing, the women hugged the children and cried, and some servants, the maids' clothes were blackened, and their originally beautiful faces were covered with black and gray. This was the trace left when the fire was put out just now. But whether the Huai Army soldiers helped them put out the fire or not, these servants and maids were also taken into custody in the middle.
These people will be sent to the Jinyiwei for interrogation. Anyone who is the Wang family will be implicated, but they will not be killed. Instead, they will only behead the evil people, turn the other males into slaves, the women will be sent to the Jiafangsi, and the old women will be sent to wash clothes. As for servants, maids, and helpers, they will be treated differently. All slaves will be free and re-registered. Maids who are somewhat handsome will be assigned to meritorious officers and soldiers as their wives.
