Chapter 172: Heroic Tears
The battle of Yangzhou was fought from the beginning of the night to dawn, Hao Ren was surrounded by all the soldiers and the left guards of the Chinese army, and stood on the high post and watched coldly, until there was no suspense in the battle, Hao Ren rushed down the hill with the cavalry, and entered the city from the north gate.

The soldiers and horses of the various units were still searching for the defeated soldiers of the Green Turban Army everywhere, but Hao Ren took a retinue and directly entered Zhang Mingjian's marshal's mansion.
The entire Marshal's Mansion seemed to be washed in blood, the ground was full of corpses, the blood had not dried up, the smell of blood was tangy, I don't know who it was, the Marshal's Mansion had been washed in blood one step earlier, and the entire Marshal's Mansion was not a single living mouth.
Zhang Mingjian was ruthless enough, and after the defeat, he went back to the mansion, killed all the family members, entourage, and captive women in the mansion, and destroyed his own evidence of crime.
Hao Ren thought so in his heart, and raised his head lightly to Wu Liujiu, the head of the guard, Wu Liujiu understood, and quickly asked the guards to take off the corpse in the courtyard, and splashed buckets of water on the ground, and cleaned the main hall where Hao Ren was located without a moment's effort.
"Join the army, I'll rest here tonight, and the war outside will be handed over to the generals from all walks of life!"
Liu Bowen saw that Hao Ren was going to be the shopkeeper, and hurriedly advised: "City street battles are not as good as field battles, Yangzhou has always been a rich place, and businessmen gather, if no one unifies and rectifies military discipline, I am afraid that the newly attached generals may not understand the orders of the governor."
Hao Ren was originally quite confident in dealing with Youde and Tu Danjun's military discipline, after all, he had followed Hao Ren for a long time, and he knew everything about it, as for the military discipline of Li Zongke, Deng Youde, and Chang Yuchun, it was unknown.
"Appoint Wu Liujiu as the military discipline supervisor, inspect the military discipline of all departments, if there is a violation of military discipline, anyone I know, will be brought back and handed over to the governor of Pontus to deal with, if I don't know, you can deal with it yourself!" Hao Ren ordered.
"No!" Wu Liujiu received the order, and was quite satisfied with the rights given by the governor, and held the power of life and death, above all the thousands of households and the governor. He held the hilt of his sword and confidently walked out of the tent.
As soon as Wu Liujiu went out, Tu Shan Jun was full of smiles, and pushed the bound Zhang Mingjian into the Temporary Governor's Mansion.
"Governor, Zhang Mingjian let me be arrested! Ha ha! I've run out of drinks this month, and a living enemy chieftain can finally get a drinking order eight times out of ten, right? "It's half a joke, half serious.
Zhang Mingjian's clothes and armor have already been stripped off, his cloak is scattered, three points like a human, seven points like a ghost, and the sauce-colored middle clothes are sparkling with blood. I don't know how many wounds there are all over my body, and the blood is still seeping out through the middle coat.
Zhang Mingjian didn't wait for Hao Ren to speak, and knelt down first: "Zhang Mingjian, the criminal general, is willing to ask the governor to surrender, and is willing to be a pawn under the governor!" ā
Hao Ren had also heard that Zhang Mingjian was brave, whether to surrender or kill, Hao Ren was also quite hesitant, surrendered, may gain a reputation for loving talents, kill him, may regain the hearts of the people.
"Did you abuse him?" Hao Ren pointed to Zhang Mingjian's wound and asked Shan Jun.
Tu Danjun said: "This guy is full of evil, on the way to the escort, the people flocked to him, and the crowd was excited, saying that he wanted to bite this demon to death one bite at a time, his subordinates were incompetent, and he couldn't stop it, so when he was in my hands, he was almost bitten to death by the people who swarmed him, please supervise the crime!" ā
"The punishment will be forgiven, you can bring him alive, it is a credit, you will have a month, you can soak in the wine vat, however, this matter needs to be after the class teacher, the governor of Pontus will give you a month's vacation, remember one thing, you are not allowed to drink to death, and you are not allowed to make trouble after drinking!" Hao Ren praised.
A month? In a wine vat? Isn't this a fairy day?
Tu Shan Jun was full of joy, quite satisfied with this reward, and hurriedly hugged his fists and thanked: "Tu Dan remember the teachings of the governor, one does not drink to death, and the other does not make trouble after drinking!" ā
Zhang Mingjian saw that the generals who captured him alive did not have much reward, no women, and no money, and felt that he was worthless in Hao Ren's heart, so he hurriedly asked again: "Is the governor killed or stayed, hurry up and give a word!" ā
"Whether to kill or stay, I don't care about this matter, I need to ask if the people of Yangzhou agree!" Hao Ren said coldly, he knew that Zhang Mingjian was too angry with him in Yangzhou, but no matter how brave he was, he couldn't keep him.
The people of Yangzhou have the final say? Isn't that to be judged by the people of Yangzhou?
Zhang Mingjian felt that he had come to a strange place, rather than being humiliated, it was better to commit suicide, and at the moment when he was about to commit suicide with his tongue, he pinched Zhang Mingjian's jaw with a pair of big hands, and strangled a two-finger-thick hemp rope into Zhang Mingjian's mouth.
Zhang Mingjian was bent on death, no matter how he died, he would be happier than the public trial, seeing that he couldn't bite his tongue, he could only hit the corner of a table in the room, Tu Danjun pulled the rope behind him, Zhang Mingjian didn't hit it, but just knocked the table over.
The table was flipped over, and the person hiding under the table was exposed.
It was a young and graceful girl, tied up strongly, it was the woman Cui Sleeve who was captured by Zhang Mingjian's subordinates from the Spring Courtyard, and when Cui Sleeve waited for Zhang Mingjian to lead the troops out of the Shuai Mansion, the instinct to escape made him climb under a table in the Shuai Mansion, so she picked up a life when the soldiers slaughtered the Shuai Mansion.
Cui Sleeve saw that she was exposed, and her face was discolored, she was already frightened by Zhang Mingjian, Zhang Mingjian fell beside her again, and she shouted in fear: "Cannibalism!" Cannibalism! It wasn't until Zhang Mingjian was dragged down by Tu Shan Jun that Cui Sleeves calmed down.
Hao Ren saw that it was a woman who was captured by Zhang Mingjian, and it was not difficult for her, so he asked people to tie ropes and let the soldiers bring dry food and water to her.
Cui Sleeve held the water bowl in both hands, held the dry food in one hand, drank two sips of water, stared at the ignorant big eyes and asked Hao Ren, who was surrounded by everyone: "You are Hao Thirteen?" ā
Hao Ren has not been called Hao Thirteen for a few days, and suddenly heard a little girl shouting this name, feeling cordial in vain, but Liu Bowen took the trouble to shout and said: "Don't be rude to my family", Hao Ren raised his hand to stop Liu Bowen, just a title, it doesn't matter, as long as you don't scold your mother.
"You've heard my name too?"
Hao Ren said in his heart: Even a little woman in the market knows Hao Ren's name, which shows that her fame is loud in Huainan.
"The little slave didn't know the name of the governor, just because the godmother cursed Zhang Mingjian, cursed him to go out and meet Hao Shisan, and let him be killed by the governor's cannon!" Cui Sleeve Road.
How can there be such a curse? Put Hao Ren and the cannon together in the ranks of cursing and killing the bad guys.
"Then what's your name, whose woman is it?" Hao Ren asked.
"The little slave was sold to the old bustard in the spring courtyard as a goddaughter since he was a child, because of the war, the godmother did not find a suitable family for the little slave, and the little slave did not know whose family he was. The godmother because Mr. Jiaxuan has a word: 'Who asks, in exchange for the red scarf and green sleeves, and the tears of heroes', so she called the little slave Cui sleeves! Cui Sleeve said.
"It's a 'who asks, in exchange for a red scarf and green sleeves, and tears of heroes'," Hao Ren exclaimed.
