Chapter 1218: Uprising against tyranny doesn't mean you conform to heavenly principles
Zhao Ting, who knew that he was going to die, originally wanted to be able to die a happy death, but he was afraid that he would lose his life after suffering all the fragments. Since Xiao Tang dared to openly gather a crowd in Hangzhou to oppose the officials and soldiers, it also means that he has completely broken with his colleagues who were originally ministers of the same dynasty, and as a civil official, Xiao Tang only knows each other's identities and votes, and what kind of affection does he have, and now that he has fallen into the hands of him and a group of rebels, how can he save his life?
But when he heard Xiao Tang's whispered words into his ears, Zhao Ting's heart suddenly gave birth to the hope of survival, he was still loyal to the Great Song Dynasty court, unwilling to ask Xiao Tang for mercy, but he did not stand up and reprimand the thief with the courage to rebel against the court, Zhao Ting only nodded hurriedly, Xiao Tang saw this and gave Shi Xiu a look beside him, Shi Xiu understood, and immediately ordered his subordinates to come forward to loosen the tie for Zhao Ting, stripped off the official robe on his body, and taught him to mix in the group of soldiers behind him. He ordered a leader to look at the frightened and silent courtier.
And Zhang Shun and Zhang Rong went to the city, and they also found Xiao Tang and other brothers after a while, and then Zhang Shun immediately threw Zhu Mian, who had fainted, to the ground, and said to Xiao Tang: "Fortunately, Zhu Mian, the leg of the dog thief, was smacked by Brother Zhang Rong, but he drowned and passed out, but he still had a breath left, and he was specially escorted to hand it over to his brother!" ”
Ruan's Sanxiong and Zhejiang Silong, who were guarding and intercepting the water gates in Hangzhou's Nanshui and Beishui, had also reported that Zhu Mian had been captured alive by Zhang Shun and Zhang Rongsheng at Yongjinmen, and they also led their troops to rendezvous. Later, when Zhang Shunji said that Zhang Rong did make his own claim, he did not avoid danger, and took advantage of the chaos to sneak on the boat and drag the dog official into the lake before he was successfully captured, Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu and even Cheng Gui and others and other good men in the water couldn't help but hear it, and Ruan Xiaoqi laughed even more, and stepped forward to pat Zhang Rong's shoulder and said: "Good boy, there are you!" You little also brought seeds, and you dared to kill the boat alone to drag Zhu Mian, the dog thief, into the water. Originally, I was expecting this guy to fall into my hands through the North Water Gate, but I taught you to grab this skill! ”
Zhang Rong raised his head even more when he saw it, and said with a smile to Ruan Xiaoqi: "Seventh brother, this is called the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, and if there is anything to do in the future, look at my ability, I will not lose and fight for a long time!" ”
When Ruan Xiaoqi heard this, he was about to hit Zhang Rong, and scolded with a smile: "Little Qianqi, I just praised you a few words, but I kicked my nose in the face with Lao Tzu!" ”
Zhang Rong smiled and dodged away, and when he looked at Xiao Tang happily again, he also had an expectation in his heart that he wanted to be recognized by the eldest brother of righteousness, but Xiao Tang thought for a moment, but shook his head slightly, and warned Zhang Rong again: "Brother, this time you have indeed made great achievements, but before Xiao Qi clearly taught you to follow the orders of Brother Zhang Shun, this time you made your own decision and took the credit by luck, but if you are a little negligent, you are trapped in the boat and other people can't rescue you, so you have to lose your life in vain?" What's more, after I wait for several mountains and soldiers to jointly raise things, we can no longer rely on the means of the green forest to act rashly. If I teach you to lead a group of sailors to kill the enemy, if you do not obey the general's orders, it is very likely that the troops and horses of the various departments will not be able to coordinate with each other, and the whole body will be affected by one shot, how can it be child's play? When you lead an army alone, the lives of many brothers will be entrusted to you, or they may be folded in your hands because of a moment of recklessness.
This time, it's just to catch Zhu Mian in the water gate everywhere, but when the army is killed, although the brothers have affection, the military law is strict but they can't show mercy. In the future, you should also keep in mind that improvisation is definitely different from doing things on your own when your brain is hot, and you must also keep in mind. ”
Zhang Rong, who was waiting for Xiao Tang's praise, seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water, and he was still a little unconvinced, but after thinking about it for a while, he could vaguely understand Xiao Tang's intentions, and Zhang Rong also looked very clear, and said: "My brother can see it very clearly, and when my younger brother is ordered to do something in the future, I should remember my brother's teachings." ”
And Xiao Tang's exhortation to Zhang Rong also taught Ruan Xiaoqi to see it in his eyes, and then he has a happy and wanton temperament, but he is by no means an unreasonable person, even Ruan Xiaoqi can listen to it and remember it in his heart. Xiao Tang knew that Zhang Rong had been following the Ruan brothers for a long time, and he was not a regular army sailor with strict military discipline, so it was inevitable that their methods were still inclined to green forests and grasses, and Zhang Rong had the qualifications to become a famous general who led the naval army to defeat the Jin army one after another.
Xiao Tang saw that Zhang Rong could listen to his persuasion, and understood that although he was indeed making his own decisions this time, he did get a great success, so he gave a few words of encouragement. At this time, there was another rush of footsteps. Deng Yuanjue also had to report that the leader of the navy under Xiao Tang had captured Zhu Mian, who was hated by the people in the south of the Yangtze River, and he also remembered Fang La's instructions to him, so he immediately hurried over. Deng Yuanjue first saw Zhu Mian, who fell to the ground unconscious, and immediately stepped forward and spat it, and scolded angrily: "Dog thief! It's been a long time to teach you to be powerful, and finally today! ”
After scolding angrily, Deng Yuanjue immediately turned around again and said to Xiao Tang: "Xiao Renxia's group of heroes really had a good trick, and the dog thief who didn't teach Zhu Mian escaped, according to the agreement between Sect Leader and Fang, is it time to hand over this dog thief who is worthy of a thousand cuts to me?" ”
Deng Yuanjue was anxious to ask Xiao Tang to hand over someone, but Xiao Tang gestured, instructed several brothers around him to escort Zhu Mian down, and said to Deng Yuanjue in a deep voice: "Deng Protector, now that Hangzhou City has been taken down, it is said that the general should be ordered to save the fire on the one hand, and to make an example on the other hand, so as to teach the innocent people in the city to make a living...... However, now that there is still chaos in the city, has the Dharma Protector taught the followers of your sect not to take advantage of the chaos to kill good people? Now listening to the movement from all sides, I am afraid that the leaders of the other commanders of your sect have not restrained their men. ”
Just when Xiao Tang and Deng Yuanjue spoke bluntly face to face, a large number of fanatical Manichaeans who entered the city set a few new fires to the city, and many ordinary people were already buried in the fire. Xiao Tang only heard the cries caused by the turmoil on all sides, and he could also perceive that the chaotic situation in Hangzhou not only did not calm down, but on the contrary, it was intensifying.
At the same time, officials such as Chen Jian, the envoy of the Hangzhou government and even the subordinate envoy of Liangzhejiang Road, and Zhao Yue, the envoy of Lian Visitor, ran into the Manichaean congregation, who had already been provoked to become ferocious, and were slashed alive by the rebels. Anyone else who was caught by the Manichaeans was cut off by the officials, or stripped off their breasts and lungs, or burned with fire to make anointing oil, or shot them into hedgehogs with arrows... All kinds of torture that intensified in order to vent the hatred in their hearts were staged everywhere in Hangzhou, and finally they were able to avenge the shame of those abusive officials who bullied and oppressed them, but it also made too many Manichaeans turn into bloodthirsty beasts, and even many people were red-eyed, and looked at the people in the city who were so frightened in front of them that they couldn't dodge, and even showed their butcher knives here, and roared straight up......
And Deng Yuanjue listened to Xiao Tang's words, his face couldn't help but become a little unnatural, this Baoguang Rulai, who was originally a little similar to Lu Zhishen's temperament, and often fought with others, was also a little stubborn, and said to Xiao Tang: "My brothers in the sect, most of them are poor people who have been abused by tyranny, and they have endless grudges in their hearts, and now that the rebellion has succeeded, they will inevitably be unable to restrain their ......."
Xiao Tang snorted coldly when he saw it, and was about to speak to Deng Yuanjue again, but suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves suddenly came, when Xiao Tang and the brothers around him and Deng Yuanjue turned their heads to look, they saw Shan Shiqi galloping on his horse, and there was a little blood dripping at one end of the iron rod in his hand, and after seeing Xiao Tang, Shan Shiqi immediately shouted loudly: "Brother, the Manichaean people who rioted in the city have come to find our bad luck!" He has already clashed with some brothers and used knives, broken a few lives, and slaughtered more than ten of the birds! ”
