After noon, the haze in the sky became heavier, as if to indicate that a heavy snowfall was coming, and this winter was particularly heavy and snowy. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info And when this snowstorm is coming, the people in Wuchang County are carefully opening the door and looking at the street cautiously and nervously.

After the notice was posted and read, the people now dared to poke their heads out to look at their city, when the people walked out of their homes with trepidation. In the Wuchang County Ya, sitting in the lobby, with a plaque of "Mirror Hanging" hanging on his head, Zhu Yifeng still feels a little trance.

Not a single shot was fired, not a single shot was fired!

Dedicate the city!

Looking at the Wuchang Zhixian who was in his self-explanatory robe and only underwear, as well as the lord, the history and the officials who knelt beside him, Zhu Yifeng's heart was mixed for a while. In this way, this Wuchang county town was taken down?

It's just that the big guy put a pose at the city gate?

Originally, he was still ready to attack, and he was ready to bombard a hundred and ten cannons to test the power of this caron cannon siege, but who would have thought that he would only fire one cannon and surrender to the right person.

Looking at Xu Shiliang kneeling on the ground, Zhu Yifeng didn't mean to embarrass him, this kind of timid rat not only does not have to be embarrassed, but can also be used, such as continuing to serve as the county magistrate, at least during the transition period, maintaining local order, collecting taxes and silver on time, and urging the people to pay grain and money. When there are their own people in the future, they will appoint the magistrate and the history of the six rooms. As for now, everything is still the same as the old system, so that this Wuchang County will become a cow, not a burden.

Looking at the people who were kneeling on the ground and didn't know whether they were cold or trembling because of fear, Zhu Yifeng didn't plan to show them kindness now, he knew that even if he was gracious, it might not be able to make them do their best, rather than this, it was better to drive them with fear.

"As a Han Chinese, you are willing to be driven by the Manchus and enslave my Han compatriots, what crime should you be guilty of!"

A scolding came into his ears, only to make Xu Shiliang and the others tremble, and hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Sin deserves death", although he said so, but ants are still stealing life, let alone people.

"General, General, here, there is still silver grain in this treasury, and the small, small and small people are willing to give all to the army......"

"Oh, there is silver grain? How much? ”

Listening to his words, Zhu Yifeng's face slowly showed a hint of joy.

“…… The surviving treasury silver is 11,453 taels and 4 coins, the money is 3,864 and 761 wen, and the rice valley is 4,532 stone ......"

"Oh, there is so much money and food in this county?"

Thinking of the dilapidated city wall, Zhu Yifeng really didn't believe that there would be so much silver and so much grain in the silver treasury of this county.

If nothing else, that rice is enough for tens of thousands of people to eat for several months. There will be so many things in such a small county, which can be said to be completely beyond his expectations.

"Return, back to the general's words, before the army arrived in Wuchang, since the little man was in the court...... At the order of the puppet dynasty, a brave exercise was held here, and half of the silver and grain stored in this treasury were donated by the local squires......"

It's true that it's the local rich gentry, but don't they donate? The county order of the house, the government of the extinction. With him, the magistrate of the seven-grade county, personally came to the door to donate, the squire in Wuchang County naturally "enthusiastically pledged", but after a month's effort, he donated nearly 30,000 taels of silver and 10,000 stone of rice grain.

Although in order to survive, when Xiang Rong passed by, he provided a lot of silver and rice grain, but there was also a lot left. Originally, the silver taels were "privately withheld" by Xu Shiliang, which can be said to be the "reward" for this "thief rampant". But now, even if he is unwilling, he has to hand over the silver to save his life, if there is a regret medicine in the world, I am afraid that he will abandon the city and flee early, and there will be his own life for that little silver.

"All this silver grain is donated!"

Eyebrows and body jumped, Zhu Yifeng asked rhetorically! Although he knew what this so-called "donation" was, it still made his eyes shine.

"Where is the receipt of the gentry's donation of silver and grain?"

Since those gentry were able to donate tens of thousands of taels to the Manchus, they now went into the city by themselves...... Hmph, I want to see what they think!

"General, general, villain, villain, here's the document......"

Shi Tingtao hurriedly took out the voucher from his arms, as a master, how could he not know what the use of this adult asking for this voucher was this? Isn't it just to "squeeze" a sum of money from those gentry, these days, officials are bandits, and bandits are also officials!

"You don't have to look at the receipts!"

Zhu Yifeng didn't even glance at the receipt, but turned his gaze to Xu Shiliang, and then smiled.

"Xu Zhixian, since you surrendered the city, how could Ben Shuai be embarrassed and wait!"

When the words fell, Zhu Yifeng helped him up again with his own hands and continued in his panic.

"Since you have taken refuge in Ben Shuai, Ben Shuai will naturally not treat you badly, and now Ben Shuai ordered you to temporarily belong to Wuchang County, and continue to operate this county, as for this ......"

The voucher from Shi Tingtao's hand was stuffed into Xu Shiliang's hand.

"The matter of this gentry's donation was all handled by Xu Zhixian......"

"Small, little ......"

In the face of the obscenity of this rebel, how could Xu Shiliang dare to refuse, but Shi Tingtao saw that his life was in danger, and hurriedly said on the side.

"Please, please rest assured, the villain will definitely assist the magistrate to do this errand well, and he will definitely let them donate according to the book, no, donate double the amount of silver and grain to reward the army......"

"Double...... Hum! ”

With a sneer, Zhu Yifeng stared at Shi Tingtao, the corners of his lips were lightly raised, and his face was full of coldness.

"Two, twice ......"

Shi Tingtao muttered, this, so much silver, that, it is really no different from a broken family. But in any case, first satisfy the handsome man in front of him.

"Your Master Shi is really a loyal minister of the Manchu Qing Dynasty!"

The handsome sneer came into Shi Tingtao's ears, only to make his legs weak and quickly knelt down.

"Big handsome, small, villain......"

"Such a small Wuchang City, let you squeeze out a few drops of oil, and in the end, the people's grievances will not all fall on Ben Shuai!"

Sneering, Zhu Yifeng stared at Shi Tingtao who was kneeling on the ground, looked at his trembling appearance, and knew that his pitiful look was just pretending, so he raised his leg and kicked it.

"You thing, aren't you harming Ben Shuai! What's the use of keeping you! ”

"Small, little ......"

Shi Tingtao, who was kicked down, dared to suffer pain there, but continued to plead.

"The villain is just bent on raising military salaries for the marshal...... The villain's loyalty can be shown to be ...... the sun and the moon"

Get...... Looking at his sobbing appearance, Zhu Yifeng, who sneered in his heart, knew that the play was almost the same, and snorted.

"Well, you're loyal! Xu Zhi County! ”

Xu Shiliang, who was stared at by this person in a blink of an eye, and his head was still dangling in other people's hands, only felt that his legs were weak, and he knelt down.

"This food and salary will be handed over to you and this dog thing, if anyone dares to take the opportunity to extort, don't blame Ben Shuai's knife for not recognizing people!"

When it was over, Zhu Yifeng specially commanded again.

"As for the gentry's donation, it will be ...... as it was."

Looking coldly at the trembling appearance of the people kneeling on the ground, and listening to them say words like "villains don't dare" in a trembling voice, Zhu Yifeng's heart swelled up with a feeling that he had never felt before, this feeling of mastering the life and death of others is really fascinating, one word...... Refreshing!

In fact, it is not just a "cool" word that can be summed up, until he left the yatang, the feeling of others controlling life and death between talking and laughing still made Zhu Yifeng a little fluttering, it seems that at this time, he finally understood, why the history books will say "A husband can't be without power for a day", isn't this right the right to give people life and death?

When listening to the footsteps of the handsome departing gradually faded away, Xu Shiliang, who was still kneeling, sat there violently as if he had lost his soul, and Shi Tingtao sat there even more and muttered.

"I, I'm still alive?"

He even twisted his arm as if he didn't believe it, and it wasn't until he couldn't stand the pain that he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, this, this is really a walk in the ghost gate, Lord Xu, let's, we can be considered to have saved our heads now......"

"Save, keep ......"

Xu Shiliang muttered, he who would be wet under his crotch could take care of other things, but he was glad that he survived, in fact, even if he was in other people's situation, he was not much better than him, after all, the people in this yamen were usually bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and he was threatened with his head, would he be afraid?

"Master, Master......"

At this juncture, suddenly, a servant quietly flashed up and whispered a few words in Shi Tingtao's ear.

"What, you mean ......"

The officer's words made Shi Tingtao's eyes light up, and the panic on his face suddenly disappeared, and he asked in a loud voice.

"Well, that's a good thing! Where are the people, the people? ”
