Chapter 104: Begging for mercy

"Who is it?" Wang Yuanwai asked subconsciously.

"It's the younger brother of Zhang Zhixian in Funing County, and his identity is a lifter." Yang He said with a smile.

"What? Zhang Zhixian's younger brother? So why didn't he identify himself? Wang Yuanwai was shocked when he heard this.

Yang He smiled: "Don't you know that Zhuang Ding arrested people? ”

"Uh......" Wang Yuanwai was speechless.

Shaking his head, Yang He smiled and said: "Wang Yuanwai, you are really good, you have already been a magistrate and dare to arrest people, if you don't have a magistrate, it is estimated that even the court officials dare to arrest them." ”

Wang Yuanwai was shocked when he heard this, he couldn't afford this charge.

Arching his hand at Yang He, Wang Yuanwai hurriedly said: "Yang ...... Mr. Yang, the old man really didn't know that the family was arresting Zhang Zhixian's younger brother, and he didn't know that he was a lifter. ”

Yang He snorted, turned around and walked into the house.

Wang Yuanwai hurriedly followed into the house.

After a while, the soldiers took Zhang Fengwu, Lang Zhong and Wang Weiguo into the house.

Yang He looked at Zhang Fengwu for a while, and saw that Zhang Fengwu looked embarrassed, and there were still a few footprints on his body, needless to say that Yang He also knew that Zhang Fengwu had been beaten. looked at Na Langzhong again, and saw that Na Langzhong was even more embarrassed than Zhang Fengwu.

When he saw Wang Weiguo, Yang He's face suddenly became gloomy.

Among the three people, Wang Weiguo was beaten the worst, his face was blue and purple, and the clothes on his body were even more tattered.

Seeing Yang He looking over, Wang Weiguo said in a low voice: "Master, I didn't protect my husband." ”

Zhang Fengwu hurriedly said: "If you weren't protecting me, how could you be beaten like this." ”

Yang He gently patted Wang Weiguo's shoulder, and then handed the knife in his hand to him: "Whoever beat you, find it yourself, everyone is in the courtyard, and you can kill or chop it." ”

"Master, it won't cause you trouble, will it?" Wang Weiguo said in a low voice.

"Trouble? What's the trouble? You are my soldier, you were beaten, if I don't help you get it back, what face do I have to lead the army? Just let it go, and I'll take care of all the mess for you. Yang He smiled.

"Thank you, sir." Wang Weiguo Road.

After speaking, Wang Weiguo limped out with a knife.

"You connived at soldiers to kill?" Wang Yuanwai pointed at Yang He and said angrily.

Yang He smiled, turned around and looked at Wang Yuanwai and said, "Do you think I am conniving at soldiers to kill?" ”

Shaking his head, Yang He looked at Wang Yuanwai with disdain and said, "Do you know what the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty lack?" ”

Suddenly, Yang He raised his voice and said: "Let me tell you, what our soldiers lack is blood, and it is precisely because our soldiers have no bloodiness that they have not seen the enemy, so they have abandoned the city and fled, causing a fortified city like Guangning City to fall into the hands of the enemy."

You think I'm conniving at soldiers to kill, but I'm actually cultivating their blood.

If a soldier is beaten by bandits and does not dare to fight back, how can you expect them to fight bravely on the battlefield?

I don't care about other people's soldiers, and I can't control them, but my soldiers under Yang He can do without anything, but they can't be bloodless, whoever dares to touch my soldiers, I will make him look good! ”

After speaking, Yang He Huo Ran turned his head, glared at Wei Shanjin and shouted, "Do you remember my words?" ”

"Remember!" Wei Shanjin replied loudly.

Yang He nodded, asked Wei Shanjin to help Zhang Fengwu and Na Langzhong to take their seats, and then arched his hand at Na Langzhong and said: "Mr. has suffered, don't worry, you are the person I invited, I will definitely give you an explanation." ”

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief." Na Lang said busily.

Yang He smiled and said: "I'm just a regimental training chief soldier, I can't afford your chief soldier." ”

"Deserved, deserved." Lang Zhong said busily.

Yang He waved his hand and looked at Wang Yuanwai coldly.

Wang Yuanwai hurriedly said: "What do you want?" ”

Yang He sneered: "What do I want?" Do you know who I asked this Lang Zhong to heal? ”

"I don't know." Wang Yuanwai hurriedly shook his head and said.

Yang He sneered: "I recruited a soldier yesterday, this child is only thirteen years old, and he will become a soldier at the age of thirteen, do you know what the reason is?" ”

Yang He suddenly changed the topic, and Wang Yuanwai didn't understand what he meant for a while, so he had to shake his head again.

Yang He sneered: "This child's name is Ding Gouyu, his family owes you three taels of silver, less than a year, you want to collect fifteen taels of silver from his family, his family has no money to repay, you occupy his family's land, and he wants his daughter to pay off the debt, his father refuses, you let people beat his father and rob the girl back."

Now Ding Gouyu's parents are both bedridden, and the soldiers under my command saw me and told me that if they don't heal, I'm afraid time is running out, so I asked Lang Zhong to go to Ding Gouyu's parents overnight to see a doctor, but I didn't expect Lang Zhong to be arrested by you. Outside the king, what do you say I should do with you! ”

Listening to Yang He's voice getting colder and colder, Wang Yuanwai only felt a cold air hit his body.

"Lord Yang, the illness of the dog's parents can't be delayed, I'll go to the dog's house now." Lang Zhong said.

Yang He looked at Lang Zhong: "Can your body stand it?" ”

"It's fine." Lang Zhongdao.

"I'll go with him." Zhang Fengwu continued.

"Good work, Brother Qi." Yang He said.

After speaking, he turned back to Wei Shan and said, "Take the two gentlemen to the dog leftovers house immediately and protect the two gentlemen." ”

"Yes!" Wei Shan said.

After the three of them went out, Yang He sat on the chair and looked at Wang Yuanwai coldly.

Seeing Yang He's gaze sweeping around his body like a blade, Wang Yuanwai couldn't support it anymore, his knees weakened, and he knelt on the ground: "Lord Yang, the old man knows his mistakes, and I ask Lord Yang to raise his noble hand." ”

Yang He didn't expect Wang Yuanwai to kneel and beg for mercy, and he couldn't help but hesitate for a while.

Yang He didn't really come to Pingping Wangjiazhuang with his troops, he really wanted to wash Wangjiazhuang in blood, and he couldn't eat and walk around, Yang He just said that to boost the morale of the soldiers.

It is impossible to deal with people with backgrounds in the court like Wang Yuanwai, so Yang He arranged for Sun Defu and others to pretend to be bandits and robbers, and let Sun Defu act in the name of bandits.

Yang He asked Sun Defu and others to pretend to be bandits for another purpose, that is, there are bandits in Funing County, and it is justifiable for the county to organize regimental training, and then the township soldiers will be taken seriously, and only then will his words have weight.

This idea was not improvised by Yang He, two days ago when he heard Zhang Fengqi say that the wealthy businessmen in the county were unwilling to contribute money to support the township soldiers, Yang He was thinking about how to make those wealthy businessmen in Funing County contribute willingly.

On the surface, Yang He said that he didn't need those people to pay, but that was just for show, after all, it was these people who organized regimental training and recruited township soldiers to protect them. If you don't pay for it and want to be protected, how can there be such a good thing in the world? If Yang He pays for it himself, how can he protect these people?

And for these people to be willing to pay, they have to make them feel that their wealth is threatened. And the only ones who can make those wealthy and rich feel threatened are bandits and robbers, so Yang He came up with the idea of letting people pretend to be bandits.

However, the scale of the bandits should not be too large, if the number of bandits is too large, the imperial court will use officers and soldiers to exterminate them, then there will be nothing to do with the village soldiers. The number of people should not be too small, and too few people will not pose a threat to the powerful in those places.

Yang He originally wanted to arrange forty or fifty people to pretend to be bandits, which was a threat to those wealthy families and would not attract the attention of the imperial court. It's a pity that Yang He has too few people in his hands now, and the transfer of more than a dozen people is already the limit.

More than a dozen people are not a threat to those wealthy families at all, and there are more than 100 people in Funing County, and there are so many people who take care of the home and nursing home, and they will not take a dozen or so robbers in their eyes.

Normally, a handful of bandits of a dozen or so people do not dare to touch such a wealthy family at all, and at most they dare to rob some small families.

But Yang He made people pretend to be robbers not to rob, but to make those wealthy families feel threatened, robbing small families does not work at all, and if you want to make those big families feel threatened, you must attack the big ones.

Obviously, this is a contradiction.

If he wanted more than ten people to rob a large household with more than 100 people taking care of the home, Yang He had to use the troops on the surface to deal with the families who were taking care of the home.

And in order to use troops to solve the problems of those large families, it is necessary to find a suitable target, and there must be a reasonable reason.

Since there was no suitable object at that time, Yang He put the idea on hold for the time being.

Until yesterday, Ding Gouyu and Ye Liangchen talked about what Wang Yuanwai did, Yang He thought that the Wang family was the best target for robbery, and robbing such a rich and unkind family had no psychological burden at all.

Then Yang He also needs to find a reasonable reason to send troops.

Let Gou Yu and Ye Liangchen bring things home, just hoping that the people of the Wang family can snatch these things away, so that Yang He can give the Wang family a charge of robbing soldiers' military funds, and then send troops justifiably.

It's just that Yang He didn't expect that the Wang family didn't rob the things of Gou Yu and others, but instead arrested Zhang Fengwu and others, this excuse is even better than the excuse of robbing military funds.

But Yang He couldn't send troops immediately, he wanted to make Zhang Fengwu and others suffer a little, and the greater the suffering of Zhang Fengwu and others, the more sufficient his reasons were.

Yang He believes that Zhang Fengwu can understand what he means, as long as it is not a matter of life and death, Zhang Fengwu will never reveal his identity.

Everything was as Yang He expected, the subordinates of Wang Yuan's family did not know the identity of Zhang Fengwu and beat Zhang Fengwu and others, so that Yang He could attack those family members unscrupulously.

As for Wang Yuanwai himself, Yang He can't do anything to him on the surface, after all, Wang Yuanwai has an official body, even if Wang Yuanwai kills people and sets fires, he has his own court law to manage it, and it is not something that he can deal with with with a small regimental training general soldier.

However, as long as the Wang family's caretakers are cleaned up, Yang He's purpose has been achieved, and on the surface, Yang He can't clean up the king, so he can let Sun Defu clean him up in the name of bandits.

After achieving the goal, Yang He was ready to withdraw his troops, but he still had to do enough to play.

In Yang He's mind, Wang Yuanwai would not be afraid of him, the chief soldier of the regiment, and Yang He was ready to take people away after arguing with Wang Yuanwai for some compensation.

It's just that Yang He never expected that Wang Yuanwai would not be as tough as he expected, and he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
