Han Yu's words made captain Wang Wei overjoyed, but everyone present was suspicious. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If it weren't for Han Yu being Zhang Bai's younger brother, he would have always stayed at home and had no intersection with the military attaché in the army.

I'm afraid that these officers will firmly believe that Han Yu and captain Wang Wei are both thieves.

"Brother Han, what basis do you have?" Zhang Tanghuai immediately asked.

As everything developed towards Han Yu's prediction, Zhang Tanghuai paid more and more attention to this increasingly incomprehensible brother's opinion.

"You look at Yao Rui's palms, the thick calluses indicate that he is proficient in the use of blades, and his legs are slightly bow-shaped to prove that he is skilled in riding horses, and there is a trace of fear in his sharp and ruthless eyes, this kind of person has long been put aside from life and death, and he will never confess to the same party just after suffering a little bit of flesh and skin, I just checked Yao Rui's military registration, and the above record is obviously problematic, but it can be roughly determined that there may be some reason for Yao Rui to leave the Kou army and plan to live and work in peace and contentment in Fengyang City, but now the Kou army is coming, Maybe in order to save his life, or maybe in order to make meritorious service, he plans to go out of the city to report. ”

Han Yu talked about it and clearly analyzed Yao Rui's past and present situation.

Han Yu's tone paused slightly, looked at the sweaty captain Wang Wei on the side, and continued in a slightly slower tone: "As for Captain Wang, I'm afraid he just took Yao Rui's benefits, changed this military record, and promoted him to be a chief, but he shouldn't have any contact with Kou Jun." ”

The entire cellar was as quiet as death, and everyone looked at Han Yu with blank eyes.

No one thought that this Bai Zong brother, who had always been regarded as a fool, would actually say such clear and logical words.

Listening to Han Yu's narration, the whole thing became clear.

In fact, if it were usual, everyone present would not be led by Yao Rui, but now that the Kou army is coming, everyone is nervous.

Hearing Han Yu's analysis, Yao Rui's face turned pale, although it was not tight, but it was also speculated.

Yao Rui really didn't expect Han Yu, a fool, to be such a number one person.

"I see, but I'm too careful!" Zhang Tanghuai got up and saluted the captain Wang Wei.

Captain Wang Wei's old face turned red, although he was indeed not Kou Jun, but it was true that he took Yao Rui's benefits, but fortunately, Zhang Tanghuai had no intention of pursuing it.

Moved, he hurriedly clenched his fists and said apologetically: "My lord is really embarrassed, I am really ashamed to have such a scum under my subordinates, thank you for your impartiality, thank you for your kindness!" ”

Han Yu didn't dare to hold it up, so he hurriedly hugged his fists and returned the salute, which made the captain Wang Wei very useful, and he had a good impression of Han Yu.

"At this time, the foreign enemy is coming, we should unite sincerely, otherwise the day the city is broken, it will be the time for us to die!" Zhang Tanghuai took the opportunity to unite people's hearts.

"It's useless, just because you also want to block Zhang Dashuai's strong attack? The fall of Fengyang is a foregone conclusion, you are just a mantis arm as a car! ”

Yao Rui, who was sitting on the side mockingly, had a flat gaze, obviously no longer had the desire to survive, and Yao Rui seemed to be full of confidence in whether Zhang Xianzhong could conquer Fengyang.

"When people die, the lights go out and there is nothing, if you know the current affairs and explain quickly, not only can you live, but also protect the people in the city!"

"Aware of current affairs? Good for the official eagle dog? And protect the people! Yao Rui laughed angrily.

"Open your eyes and look at Fengyang City, the gentry and officials sing every night, drunk paper and gold, and the people are hungry and have no clothes to cover their bodies!"

"Let me ask you, Master Zhang, who are you protecting?"

Although Yao Rui's words sound harsh, they are true.

The gentry and officials controlled the market, and the taxes were heavier and the layers were deducted, and even in a prosperous city like Fengyang City, there were also many hungry people, and as many as 100 people starved to death every day.

Most of the soldiers present were from poor families, so they could naturally empathize, and I have to say that Yao Rui's words were extremely inflammatory.

"Any change is not overnight, Zhang Xianzhong and others seem to uphold the righteousness, plundering and distributing food, in fact, it can only solve the needs of the moment, it is tantamount to killing chickens and eggs, there is no land foundation, and it is just wishful thinking to feed the people.

Everyone present, including Yao Rui, looked at Han Yu in shock.

In just a few words, Han Yu clearly analyzed the evil consequences of Zhang Xianzhong and other Kou army's plunder.

Although in later generations, anyone can comment on one or two things through history books, but at the moment it is a wake-up call.

Even Yao Rui suddenly felt that the so-called rebel army, what petitions for the people, were just a group of bandits who wantonly burned, killed and looted.

All the officers and soldiers present had a feeling that this Han Yu, who didn't look outstanding, was not simple.

"Brother Han..."

Zhang Tanghuai's expression was complicated, although he already looked up to Brother Han, but now he found that he still underestimated Han Yu.

Being able to say this, even if it is just a family talk on paper, it can also be seen that Han Yu is extraordinary.

Han Yu was stunned for a moment, and found that he had said too much in a moment of anger.

Although these words seem to be no problem, if they are taken out of context by someone with a heart, it will also cause big trouble, and the way the disaster comes from the mouth, Han Yu is very clear.

"Sure enough, it's an official lackey!"

Yao Rui was speechless by Han Yu's words, and could only use a painless insult to hide his inner uneasiness.

It's just that Han Yu obviously doesn't intend to let Yao Rui go.

"Judging from the household registration, Yao Rui, you still have a wife and children in your residence in the east and west of the city."

Han Yu suddenly turned his head to Zhang Tang and saluted with a fist in his arms and said, "Lord Zhang Haihan, I have asked the armor to go and capture the mother and son. ”

Yao Rui's face suddenly turned pale, his whole body couldn't help but tremble, and he gasped and roared at Han Yu as if he was crazy: "If you dare to touch a finger of their mother and son, I won't let you go!" ”

Han Yu sneered and suggested to Zhang Tanghuai: "It's better to send his wife to the barracks, use his son to sacrifice the flag, and ask Lord Zhang to agree." ”

The surrounding officers and soldiers looked at each other, secretly admiring that this Han Yu was really ruthless, and he didn't care at all about the morality of his family.

"I said, I told you everything, begging Lord Zhang to let their mother and son go!"

At this time, Yao Rui couldn't cry anymore, but the tough guy gave up the bottom line because of his family.

"Spare your life, spare your life, my lord!" In another cellar not far away, there were terrible screams and begging for mercy from time to time.

Another captured Kou Junzuo was first beaten violently, and then he was burned with a soldering iron and obediently explained everything.

Soon learned that the Kou army was attacked inside and outside, and the attack on Fengyang was based on torches.

After confirming the confessions of Yao Rui and several fine works, it can be roughly determined when the Kou army led by Zhang Xianzhong brought it, when it attacked the city, and how many men and horses and baggage supplies.

Although the number of officers and soldiers defending the west gate was small, they were at ease, and there were many firearms and sufficient equipment.

On the other hand, although Zhang Xianzhong's Kou army was numerous, it lacked siege equipment, and the labor division was far away, and the food supply was plundered along the way.

The dense fog around the Fengcheng City not only did not become a favorable factor for the Kou army to sneak attack and attack the city, but instead became a favorable condition for the defending officers and troops to hide the boulders and firearms.

Zhang Tanghuai's persuasion many times was fruitless, but Han Yu still followed him to the head of the West Gate City.

At this time, the fog around Fengcheng was filled, but in the endless darkness in the distance, there seemed to be a terrifying beast that chose people to devour.

Although Zhang Tanghuai wanted Han Yu to hide at home, he stayed at Han Yu's insistence and took the initiative to ask for a crossbow and dagger from the quartermaster.

In fact, Han Yu originally wanted to use firearms, but it was a little difficult to aim at firearms at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

In addition, Han Yu had never had experience in using firearms, so he finally chose a crossbow arrow that was relatively simple to operate and had a better accuracy.

In order to ensure Han Yu's safety, Zhang Tanghuai went to find a set of slightly heavy armor and put it on Han Yu in person.

And her mother-in-law repeatedly instructed Han Yu not to leave his side at any time, and Zhang Tanghuai didn't dare to be careless.
