Chapter 54: Exoneration

When these tartars were engulfed in flames, and the upper end of the ladder was also contaminated with the grease of the furnace cabinet, and it also burned, and the tartars below saw this appearance, and knew that they could not attack from this ladder, and they retreated from this ladder.

The Ming army on the city wall seized this opportunity, and a few soldiers carried tens of thousands of enemies and threw them down from the city wall, but now, these soldiers have no time to pay attention to whether there are any acquaintances he knows below, because as long as this tartar comes up from this ladder again, maybe, his life will stay here.

"Boom" The 10,000 enemies burned and exploded, and the scattered grease was quickly ignited by the flames, and the raging flames ignited everything around that could be burned, people, ladders, crashes, and the most corpses on the ground.

"Woo" The army in the distance blew the horns, and the tartars under the city slowly approached the army of this formation. A few of the wounded, supported by their companions, slowly followed the back of the team, and in an instant, there was not a single tartar left in the city, except for the corpses in one place and the refugees who had run away.

Several cavalrymen rode out of this military formation, waved the leather whip in their hands, and slowly drove these scattered refugees together, and several refugees seemed to want to escape, these cavalry chased after them, one by one, and cut down again and again.

Then they marched away, and the refugees under the whips, like cattle and sheep on the steppe, meekly met the army in the distance.

The faces of the people on the city wall were ugly, and their villagers were taken away in front of the Tartars, but they could only watch and be powerless. It made them feel ashamed from their hearts. In particular, among the refugees in the city, Minzhuang, who had his own relatives, squatted on the ground and cried bitterly.

The city was defended, and no one was happy, and the soldiers gathered up the bodies of their comrades, and the bodies of the Tartars were thrown down from the wall, and with a pop, a cloud of dust was thrown out of the dry land.

Soon, the city wall was cleared, and the corpses of his own soldiers were neatly placed aside. Among them were also the bodies of several people and criminals.

The soldiers were gathered together, and even these criminals were newly shackled, but Hu Ding several of them who had meritorious service in defending the city were separated independently, and the people below whispered something, most of them defended the city this time, and what rewards would be given.

That Hao Baihu had already sobered up, and was standing beside Li Qianzong with a pale face, next to the prefect of Yu and Qin Tong, they got together, muttering and discussing something, they raised their heads from time to time to glance at Hu Ding, and after a while, the prefect raised his head and said a few humble words to Mr. Li Qian, under the repeated desire of Mr. Li Qian, he stood on the height of this city tower.

"This time, the Tartars attacked my Shunde, worshiped our emperor Hongfu, and the soldiers used their lives. I Shunde turned danger into a disaster, today's work, all the monarchs have efforts, therefore, the urban and rural gentry and celebrities in my house discussed, today all those who participate in the defense of the city, the soldiers and soldiers are one or two dollars, and the people are strong and eight dollars......"

The prefect said, and glanced at the gang of criminals underground, but he snorted coldly, "Defending the city today, whether it is a soldier or a strong people, they are all doing their best, but there are some people and bandits, tricky and slippery, not trying to report the emperor's favor, and they are not willing to help defend the city and protect my fellow villagers." This is really the shame of my Shunde, if it were not for the hearts of our military and civilians, today this Tartar will break through the city, today I Shunde has not been broken the city, I will definitely report to the division, heavy sentence for the crime of you!! ”

As soon as he heard the words of the prefect, Hu Ding, oh, no, it should be called Yang Quan now, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his head, listening to the words of the prefect, but the big thing is not good.

At this time, the Qin Tong sentence said with a smile, "My lord, these people, don't be angry with them, among these prisoners, there are still loyal and brave people, a few people here, they are the righteous men who desperately help our army and people defend the city, just this Li Qian always said, these strong men, do not ask for the reward of the prefect, only to be able to exempt them from responsibility, I don't know your lordship, I don't know what you see?" ”

Regarding Qin Tong's sentence, Yu Zhifu suddenly "turned his anger into joy", and looked at these criminals with great relief. "Well, then, it seems that I am too arbitrary, in this case, these righteous people should be punished for their crimes."

Speaking of this, an official in a cyan official robe next to him walked out of the crowd in one step, "My lord, my subordinates don't agree!!" ”

The situation that everyone was happy was suddenly broken by this person, Yu Zhifu frowned, looked back, and saw that the official who stood up was gray and black, and he was smoked like a big flower face, but this adult couldn't recognize it for a while.

Master Yu next to him knew that his master couldn't see things in the distance, so he hurriedly walked to Prefect Yu's side, and whispered in his ear, "My lord, this is Lord Song Zhilian of Xingtai County." ”

Only then did the prefect know that in front of him was the county lord of Xingtai County, which was different from the same city in ancient times, and sometimes the administrative division, the prefecture and the county overlapped, just like some prefecture-level cities and county governments now, they would be in a city, but the requirements in ancient times were stricter, and the prefect and the county order were in a city, and the two prefectures would not meet. Even in addition to the correspondence on official documents, the two masters, although they are superiors and subordinates, will not interact with each other many times. This was also the officialdom at that time, a rule that was not a rule.

However, this Master Song spoke at this time and refuted the prefect, but he couldn't lose face in the prefect. However, this Song Zhilian looked at the prefect's face was not good-looking, and knew that what he said just now was too direct, so he hurriedly added, "Lord Prefect, treat the people under his rule, it is absolutely tolerant and loving, these righteous men almost fought for their lives in order to defend the city, and the reward should be deserved, but they are all pardoned, and the lower officials think that something is wrong, among these people, there are good and bad, although there are loyal and patriotic people, but there are also extremely vicious people, if they are released, in case they do bad things......"

Although the prefect of Yu hated this Song County Order, he still pretended to be vain.

"Well, what Song County Ling said is reasonable, but I was too reckless,"

As he spoke, he turned around and asked, "Qin Tongju, how many people have committed peace and other crimes?" “

When Qin Tongju heard this old man say this, he groaned for a while, and then said, "Is this," he glanced at Hu Ding, and then continued, "Among these people, Hao Daniu, Qi Zimo, the two of them were fighting and fighting, and the tall second Sun next to him came in with the two of them fighting, oh, and this Wang Dafang, Song Ruhui, Wang Jingdi, Wang Jinghe, these people were arrested for stealing and robbing."

As for this person named Yang Quan. It seems that someone accused him of intentional homicide, so he was detained, and now the bitter lord is in the future, and the evidence is not sufficient, so this murder cannot be charged for the time being. ”

As soon as he heard this person's words, Yang Quan breathed a sigh of relief, look at the Qin Tong sentence, how beautiful these words are, and the charges of several people have become much smaller, why didn't he say that this Hao Da Niu was seriously injured during the fight? Why don't you say that this Wang Jinghe stole at the beginning and almost ruined the innocence of other girls? If it weren't for this, this group of guys could have been locked up with him Yang Quan's murder suspect?
