Chapter 291 The government eliminates evil
In the evening, he returned to the back office full of confusion, but saw Liang Zhongshu and other officials talking about what thieves were unable to attack or something, and couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust, so he stopped and wanted to go out. However, at this moment, he only heard a loud "boom", and then the ground shook strongly, and his body tilted and the whole person hit the pillar next to him. A moment later, stimulated by a sharp pain in his forehead, he came to his senses, immediately thought of something, and rushed out like crazy.
However, as soon as Wen Da ran to the front office, he saw the Liangshan team rushing in from the front like a tide.
Finished!
Wenda sighed and stood there stunned without moving.
In front of Qingsheng Tower, Gu Haotian and the others witnessed the wall in front of the mansion, and with an explosion, it became a pile of rubble in an instant. Many people who had never seen the power of gunpowder were all shocked and stupid, even the two infantry battalions that were preparing to attack were also stunned like wood carving clay sculptures.
"Two masters, if you don't attack at this time, you will wait for when!"
Xu Guanzhong was one of the few people in the manor who had seen the power of gunpowder, and he had already been mentally prepared, so he was not too surprised, and at this time he saw the two great monks standing in front of the formation at a loss, and couldn't help but quip.
"Straight lady thief, this is such a power, but it scares the Sprinkle family!"
Lu Zhishen was woken up by Xu Guanzhong's words, he laughed at himself, and immediately led the seventh battalion of infantry to rush over, Zheng Yuanju also woke up, and immediately led his troops to follow. In just half an hour, all the Daimyo Mansions fell into the hands of the Liangshan people, and none of the characters in them escaped the net.
When Gu Haotian and Xu Guanzhong, Lin Chong, Lu Junyi and others entered the mansion, it was nearly late, and before they reached the main hall, they saw Lu Zhishen escorting a person out.
"The third brother was stupid by the explosives, and when I entered the front office, he stayed there motionless, thinking he was dead!"
Lu Zhishen caught a big fish, and when he saw everyone coming in, he muttered excitedly from afar.
Everyone looked at it, but they recognized it as the commander of the army in Beijing. This person was the mainstay of the officers and soldiers of the Daimyo Mansion in this battle with Liangshan, and after the defeat of Li Chengbing, he was unwilling to take charge of everything in order to evade responsibility, and it was all Wenda who arranged military affairs.
Gu Haotian didn't have much impression of Li Cheng and Wen Da, but he felt that the two of them were Suo Chao's bosses and generally had some skills. But judging from this match, Li Cheng is arrogant, greedy for life and afraid of death, but he is a real villain. Wenda is a man who dares to act and take responsibility, although he has been fighting against Liang Shan, but he has the idea of cherishing talents in his heart. Then he commanded:
"General Wen is a bloody man, and the eldest brother treats him well, so don't treat him badly."
The moment Wenda was broken at the door of the mansion, he had the will to die, and then the little official who suddenly heard him say this, his heart couldn't help but be shocked, and when he wanted to take a closer look, he saw that he had already entered under the crowd, and what remained in the field of vision was only a heroic silhouette.
"You don't have to look at it, this person is a petty official in the manor, but you are lucky, you are favored by the brothers of the Sprinkle family, but you think about it, don't lose a great opportunity."
As soon as Lu Zhishen heard it, he knew the thoughts of this third brother, so he said it with a grin. But after hearing that Da saw it, his heart made waves for no reason.
In the back office, Liang Zhongshu and others were frightened by a sudden explosion, and when they came back to their senses, they hurriedly went out to inquire about the situation, but only after a while, they heard the shouts and killings outside, and when they were frightened, they saw the Liangshan army rushing in like a flood, and in an instant, everyone's faces were dead.
"I-I-I'm an official of the imperial court, Cai Xiang's family, you can't wait to mess around."
Seeing Gu Haotian and the others coming in, Liang Zhongshu knew that the protagonist had arrived, so he shouted inwardly.
Before Gu Haotian could speak, Lu Junyi's enemies were very red when they saw him, he couldn't stand it for a long time when he stood on the side, and took a few steps forward to pick him up, and said fiercely:
"Dog officer! When you brutalized innocent people and disregarded human life, you could think that you couldn't mess around, and my lord will let you taste the taste of chaos today. ”
"Members--The affairs outside the staff are all received by Zhang Kongmu and Li Gu, and the official does not know, so he has to misunderstand."
As soon as Liang Zhongshu saw Lu Junyi, his soul was immediately scattered, and he could no longer hold up a trace of style, if he hadn't been lifted up in mid-air, I am afraid that he would have knelt down and begged for mercy.
"When death is on the verge of death, I still blame others, what's the use of leaving you a shameless villain!" Lu Junyi said that, and threw it on the ground.
"Senior brother, let's spare his life first!"
Gu Haotian saw that Lu Junyi was very heavy, and hurriedly stopped him. Unexpectedly, Liang Zhongshu was frightened and frightened, and when Bian Xiang went over to inspect, he was already angry.
"Senior brother, this guy didn't fall, I just ......"
Seeing this, Lu Junyi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"If you die, you will die, and you won't leave him anyway."
Gu Haotian wanted to interrogate him before taking his life, but at this time, he saw that the matter had come to this point.
At this time, the Liangshan army had all controlled the government office, and all the officials were concentrated in the back office, and dozens of people, old and young, were crowded together. Only at this time, I saw a person standing up trembling in the crowd, and I saw him say to Gu Haotian:
"Xia Guan has heard that the ancient petty officials are extremely benevolent and righteous, have good conduct, and the poems are sung in Beijing, and the good deeds are widely spread all over the world, and now Liang Xianggong has died, and the grievances will be eliminated, most of the officials in this government are innocent, and the women and children in the back house are not guilty, and please show mercy to your subordinates, and do not kill indiscriminately."
Everyone couldn't imagine that under such circumstances, someone would dare to speak up, but when they looked at it, it was a man in official uniform in his forties. Gu Haotian saw that he knew a lot about himself, so he couldn't help but be curious, so he asked:
"Who's down there?"
"Xiaguan Daimyo, prefect Wang Su."
Gu Haotian said that he suddenly remembered a person, "Water Margin" once wrote that when Lu Junyi was in prison, Dai Zong scattered headless stickers in the city, Liang Zhongshu was afraid, and asked Wang Taishou to discuss, and the book said that this Wang Taishou was a Confucian and kind person.
Thinking that it was this person, Gu Haotian couldn't help but take a closer look, but saw that he was standing there calmly, although he was a little flustered, his eyes were not evasive. I can't help but think that in such a situation, I still think of others, but I should also use the word "Confucianism". He replied gently:
"We are not murderous people, now the first evil is gone, but the accomplices have not been eliminated, as long as these wicked people are eliminated, they will let everyone return, and Lord Wang is at ease."
"In this way, the subordinate officials have thanked the junior officials on behalf of their colleagues!"
Wang Su breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but secretly thought of such a gentle and jade-like little Langjun, what was the reason for forcing him to rebel, this court ...... Alas! He sighed silently, then glanced at the few officials in the crowd with a complicated expression, bowed and bowed, and then stepped aside and sat aside.
The officials in custody all stared at Wang Su and Gu Haotian with fear, and heard Gu Haotian's words clearly, and then saw Wang Su retreat to the side, and all of a sudden "uproar" followed, leaving only Zhang Kongmu and a few other Liang Zhongshu irons, like a plague, no one dared to approach.
"Take it, cut it!"
Gu Haotian coldly ordered, and then a few guards stepped forward, carrying chickens and carrying out a few officials who had collapsed to the ground, and there was no sound after a few screams outside.
"Among you, it is not that there are people who are corrupt and pervert the law, today is Lord Wang's words and pleading, let me let it go, but we must also know that the precipice is reined in, turn back to the shore, if you do injustice again, don't think that Liangshan Road is far away, there will always be my manpower in this Beijing city, and someone will take your life then."
Then Gu Haotian stared at the trembling officials, gave them a stern reprimand, and let them go. It was only unexpected, after that, the officialdom of the Daimyo Mansion changed greatly, and under the governance of the Confucian prefect Wang, this important northern town took a rare stability, which played an unexpected role in the later march of the Liangshan army into Hebei.
That night, Liang Shan's team searched Liang Zhongshu's official residence and counted the number of belongings, of course, they would not be polite, and immediately loaded them all and transported them away. As for the Liang family, Gu Haotian is not a ruthless and vicious person, he only killed Liang Shibao and other accomplices, and the others were detained in one place and guarded.
After cleaning up Zhang Kongmu and others, Gu Haotian did not participate in the actions of sweeping the Liang family, and he immediately rushed to the military camp in the city with Xu Guanzhong. There were five or six thousand captives sent from Huaishupo and all over the city, but only Yang Zhi, Huang Xin, and Wang Ding were watching, even if Suo Chao, an old man in the army, was helping, but it was not reassuring, and he wanted to have a good talk with Suo Chao.
At about night, Gu Haotian and his party came to the barracks, but they were surprised to find that it was unusually calm inside, and everyone couldn't help but be surprised. It wasn't until after listening to Yang Zhi's words that he suddenly realized.
It turned out that there were only more than 1,000 people in the barracks, and in the morning, under the persuasion of Suo Chao, Wang Ding, etc., they also settled down, but later the captives from all over the place kept sending over, which also brought a lot of uncertain news, and these people were a little commotion. At this time, the thousands of captives of Yang Zhi and Huai Shupo arrived, and these people had already been educated and knew Liangshan's discipline well, so they showed up one by one to say the truth, and immediately let those people settle down again.
When Gu Haotian heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This time, it is Director Xiao and Brother Yang Zhi who have made great contributions. ”
"Not really, General Suo Chao and Brother Wang Ding made great efforts before, otherwise they wouldn't have waited for us to arrive."
Yang Zhi replied modestly, but intentionally or unintentionally pointed out Suo Chao.
"Where are these brothers of Sotihar and the king?"
When Gu Haotian saw this, he immediately asked.
Let's say that Suo Chao and Wang Ding stood behind the crowd, and suddenly heard Gu Haotian's call, so they stepped forward. Wang Ding saw Gu Haotian for the first time, and at this time, he thought of his previous correct choice, and his heart was excited. Suo Chao thought about the future and was stunned.
"This time, my senior brother is safe and sound, Brother Wang Ding has made a great contribution, just wait until I return to the manor, and thank you again."
Wang Ding had already made it clear that he wanted to go to Liangshan with him, so Gu Haotian told him first. Then he said to Suo Chao:
"Suo Tishi, Liang Zhongshu has been killed in Yazhong, with Cai Jing's temper, he will definitely find a scapegoat to vent his anger in the future, if you continue to stay in Beijing City, you must be the first candidate. If there is no suitable place to go, the general might as well go to Liangshan to live, and don't dislike it. ”
Suo Chao didn't expect Gu Haotian to invite him to Liangshan and couldn't help but be stunned, but then he saw Yang Zhi on the side and said:
"Brother, I use my character as a guarantee, Liangshan Manor is definitely a good place for my generation to make contributions, and I hurry up."
"Ti Zhi envoy, his subordinates have gone to Liangshan, and they will go together, so they can drink together and go into battle in the future."
Wang Ding was also desperately instigating on the side, he couldn't wait to pull this Shangguan to Liangshan, and he would have one more to rely on in the future.
Suo Chao saw that everyone persuaded him, and then thought that this little official was indeed an extraordinary person, but there was really no suitable place to go. No longer hesitated, he came to Gu Haotian and bowed to him, and thanked him.
