Chapter 566: Rich and Rival Country
For the first time, Fan Yongdou felt that he was so small, in the past, he always thought that there was nothing in the world that could not be solved with silver, from the six ministries and nine qing, down to the local officials, which one was not fed by him, and which one did not have a handle in his hands!
But Fan Yongdou forgot that his things couldn't be put on the stage after all, and he tore his face, and he realized that those petty officials who used to be respectful to him didn't care about themselves at all, on the contrary, they were still desperately commanding the officials and soldiers, and attacked their group without any emotion.
"You, you wait, nothing will end well!" He roared angrily, but he didn't dare to stay for a moment, and under the protection of his family, he fled all the way to Dongcheng, and saw that escape was in sight. Suddenly, a gunshot rang out, and his family fell into a large area at once.
Not to mention that the family hired by Fan Yongdou was really brave, and he didn't scare away, but instead formed a wall to firmly protect his master.
At this time, Zhang Zongheng, who had arrived in advance, waved his hand, and Zhou Yuji rushed up with his men and horses, and the two sides were killed together in close combat.
Zhou Yuji was very resentful at this time, if he was replaced by Yizhou soldiers, he would be able to kill Fan Yongdou's subordinates with fire guns alone. However, his subordinates' firearms were too bad. Since firearms are not good, then use courage to make up for it!
"Brothers, follow me!"
Zhou Yuji waved the knife with both hands and slammed into the team of the family members, and the knife in his hand flew up and down, dancing faster and faster, like a white mist, swirling around his body. There was almost no battle between the family members, and they were either cut off in the head, or their chests were broken, and then they were split into two pieces.
You must know that many of these family members are Jiangyang thieves. The agile outlaws are even more desperate at this time, but they are really not as brave as Zhou Yuji.
A knife is like a demonic nature. Frequently slashed through the opponent's vital points, blood splattered, turning Zhou Yuji's whole body into a hideous blood, and a thick fishy aura, as if he had just crawled out of hell.
Similarly, Zhou Yuji's subordinates were also heroic, killing and slashing, beating the family to a retreat.
"Listen, y'all. Fan Yongdou's crime is not punishable, why accompany him to death? Hurry back to the shore. The prince is magnanimous and has forgiven you. If you resist stubbornly, it will only harm your family! ”
"Lay down your arms and don't kill yourself."
……
Zhang Zongheng seized the opportunity and made his subordinates shout. Break the morale of the army. Sure enough, Fan Yongdou is just a businessman after all, the Jiangyang thieves he collected are not weak in martial arts, but they are still a group of rabble, seeing that there is no chance of winning, they suddenly scattered, except for a few who protected him to the death, the others all escaped, and it was only a matter of time before Fan Yongdou was captured alive.
On the other side. Zhang Ke's men and horses came out of Nancheng, carrying their butts. Caught up with Hua Chengzhi's soldiers. I have to say that Hua Chengzhi is also unlucky enough. He had just left the city and had not gone far when he came across a river with quite a few yurts by the river. It turned out that the water and grass here were beautiful, and some Mongolians walked their horses here and set up camp by the way.
Hua Chengzhi crashed headlong and rushed to kill with the herdsmen, and after seeing it clearly, Hua Chengzhi's soul was scattered, could it be that the Tartars have made a comeback? It would be nice if that was the case, Zhang Ke had trouble, and he could just escape.
At this time, the Ming army came out of the city, and the scene that made Hua Chengzhi's eyes drop appeared in shock, and those Tartars waved desperately and shouted.
"Lord of the Celestial Empire, we stopped them, hurry up!"
Hua Chengzhi almost fell off his horse, God, how could the Tartars listen to Zhang Ke and let them live?
No matter how Hua Chengzhi scolded, it was useless, the Ming army came up, slashed and killed, his subordinates scattered, collapsed, and became prisoners.
At the same time as capturing Hua Chengzhi, there was also a group of businessmen in his army...... Zhai family, Zhai Tang fled with his family and Fan Yongdou almost at the same time, his thoughts were different from Fan Yongdou, but Hua Chengzhi was the one who led the troops, and he might be safer with him.
How do you know the difference of a thought, but it made him the fastest prisoner.
After taking them, the battle in the city also came to an end, and the main battle was over around dawn.
Except for a few rebels who fled, most of the rebels took refuge in Zhang Ke and became warriors who fought back. Zhang Ke was very generous and let them continue to guard the city.
In fact, Zhang Ke also had to do it, one night of chaos, Barth and others stationed outside the city were confused, didn't they say that they wanted to reward them, why did the Ming army fight first.
A few days ago, they were desperately attacking Datong Mansion right in front of them, is it taking advantage of the chaos to fight with a snipe and a clam fight!
My heart was like grass growing in my heart, and I went from the tent to the outside again and again, looking at the fire-lit Datong, and a word was swirling on the tip of my tongue.
As long as an order is given, the subordinates will enter Datong, and perhaps the goal that was not achieved last time will be achieved. Whenever the order to march was about to blurt out, Zhang Ke's figure appeared in front of him, with a contemptuous look and a faint mockery, as if to say, if you have the ability, you can come, this king will make you regret it for a lifetime.
It wasn't until dawn that Barthes wore out a pair of cowhide shoes and dragged his aching feet back to the tent to sleep! He had been frightened by Zhang Ke, and he didn't have the courage to give up his life at all.
The war was completely quelled in the afternoon, and Zhang Ke sent troops to search every corner of the city, and found Wang Dayu's body in a house. It turned out that he knew that he couldn't rush out and fell into Zhang Ke's hands, but he was afraid that life would be worse than death, so he took Hedinghong and committed suicide.
By the time the Ming army found him, the corpses were stiff.
"Damn, it's cheap, but don't think it's over when you're dead, drag his body away!"
……
"Zhen'er, are you okay? How did you get out that day? ”
Zhang Yuzhen stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Dad, people originally wanted to go out of the city to go shopping, but someone outside surrounded our house and plotted against it." The child had no choice but to get into the carriage of the old man who delivered pickles and escaped from Datong. ”
"What eyes are in the sky!" Zhang Zongheng shouted luck, and couldn't help sighing: "If it weren't for you, my father's old life would have been explained!" Zhang Zongheng grabbed Zhang Yuzhen's arm, looked at it again and again, and did not let go of a trace of detail.
"Dad, people haven't lost a piece of meat, don't look at it."
"Hehe, if it's really a piece of meat, maybe it's better!" Zhang Zongheng said as thin as a mosquito, Zhang Yuzhen was slightly stunned, and her little face instantly turned red.
"Dad, what do you want!"
"Alas, what can Dad think, of course it is your life's event, Dad is such a child like you, but you are such a character, which man can get into your eyes......"
"That's it!" Zhang Yuzhen shouted angrily, where does she not know her father's mind, she is looking forward to being the prince's father-in-law! It's just a pity that she Miss Zhang doesn't have this mind. went to Zhang Ke for help, it was a last resort, people are young, so they won't be rare that uncle!
Okay, Zhang Ke was directly classified as an uncle, if Zhang Ke knew, most of them would teach the bold little girl a hard lesson.
"You're Fan Yongdou?" Zhang Ke looked at the unkempt and bloodstained middle-aged man in front of him, shook his head slightly and sighed: "It's better to be famous than to meet, and the Jin merchants are just like that!" ”
The flesh on Fan Yongdou's face twitched twice, and he smiled bitterly: "King Anton doesn't have to show off in front of a white ding, right?" ”
"Hehe, ordinary Bai Ding Benwang can't look down on him, but you Fan Yongdou is different, relying on the smuggling business, manipulating the rise and fall of many tribes. If it weren't for you, the border people of the Ming Dynasty would not have died so much, and the blood debts are vivid, how do you say this king should settle accounts with you? ”
"Reckoning? It's nothing more than a success, King Anton, don't forget that when you were smuggling, you were also involved, and the same is true of the wool business, how come all the sins have become ours? After hundreds of years of business, we just continue to do it according to the traditions of the old generation, what's wrong? ”
Zhang Ke looked down at Fan Yongdou like a king looking at his slave. In the original history, it was Fan Yongdou and his accomplices who sucked the blood of the Ming Dynasty to nourish and strengthen Jiannu, which eventually led to the Jiashen Heavenly Change, and China sank for 300 years. When later generations mentioned this, they all sighed and even beat their chests.
But when Fan Yongdou appeared in front of him, Zhang Ke suddenly felt that he was not worthy at all!
Looking up at the sky and sighing, Zhang Ke was too lazy to talk to Fan Yongdou about anything.
"Give up all your wealth."
Fan Yongdou was stunned for a moment, then looked up to the sky and laughed, tears were about to come out.
"King Anton, after all, don't you also want money, okay, I can give you all the money, gold and silver, can you exchange my life?"
"Of course not!" Zhang Ke sneered: "This king can leave you a whole corpse." ”
Fan Yongdou's eyes instantly burst into a strong fire, he really hated it, it was this guy in front of him who ruined everything about himself, and didn't even give him a way out.
"King Anton, as the saying goes, if people don't know unless they don't do it, you have been raising private soldiers all these years, hoarding grain, grass and ordnance, and dominating Liaodong, just like the Son of Heaven. All kinds of crimes, Chongzhen's fool doesn't know, but in the next clear, I have already arranged manpower, it is easy for you to kill me, and the evidence of those crimes will be made public immediately, I see what you can do! ”
"Cold salad!"
Zhang Ke smiled contemptuously, not caring at all: "Fan Yongdou, with the strength of this king, can the emperor still help me?" ”
"You, you have long been disobedient?" Fan Yongdou asked in disbelief.
"Wrong, the world is everyone's world, not the world of the old Zhu family, if their family doesn't do well, just change someone, that's it."
Arrogant, arrogant!
Fan Yongdou hollowed out his mind and wanted to say something, but found that it was useless to face Zhang Ke, who was invincible to all poisons, and at this moment, Zhang Zongheng led a group of people over.
"Lord Wang, Xia Guan has just counted some of the properties of the Wang family and the Zhai family, and the silver alone is no less than five million taels, rich and rivals the country, it is really rich and rivals the country! It's the first time I've seen so much money! (To be continued......)
