At midnight, the cannon roared endlessly, and Chen Kaiyuan was not easy to fall asleep, and he was stirred up on the bed and tossed over and over in pain. kept scolding Mi Yan in his mouth, obviously the thief was willing to surrender, but what kind of bombardment was he doing here, what did he mean?

On the other hand, Zhang Yingxuan, who was in the same account, slept steadily.

So, after a night of drowsiness, the sound of the cannon finally faded when it was almost dawn, and Chen Kaiyuan also fell back asleep in a daze. But he was soon woken up by the boiling voices, and when he heard the raging shouts outside the tent, he was immediately frightened and lost his sleep.

His first reaction was to steal the camp from the thieves, otherwise he would not have made such a moth with the strict discipline of the Three Guards.

Chen Kaiyuan hurriedly pushed Zhang Yingxuan beside him, and Zhang Yingxuan looked at his colleagues in front of him sleepily.

"What's disturbing your dreams?"

Chen Kaiyuan's nose was about to crooked, and seeing that the catastrophe was coming, he still had the heart to dream.

"The thieves have stolen the camp, Brother Baomo has come up with a countermeasure!"

As if to confirm Chen Kaiyuan's words, a few more cannons rang out from outside. Who knew that Zhang Yingxuan listened to it for a while but laughed: "When will your frizzy personality change, listen to it again, is this a stealing camp, or a cheer to celebrate victory?" ”

"What?"

Chen Kaiyuan's eyes widened in disbelief, and his mouth was open.

Zhang Yingxuan nodded and said, "If it is not bad, Mi Yan has already recovered Yangzhou!" ”

"What? Recovering Yangzhou? ”

Hearing Zhang Yingxuan's words, Chen Kaiyuan seemed to have heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.

"How is this possible?"

Yangzhou City is high and deep, and the thieves are fierce, even if the combat effectiveness of the Three Guards is outstanding, there is no reason to break the thieves into the city overnight!

"The old man doesn't believe it, he always has to see is believing, let's go and see together!"

Looking at the new army of the Three Guards cheering to his heart's content, Chen Kaiyuan couldn't understand even if he wanted to break his head, how could he recover Yangzhou overnight with Mi Yan, a thin scholar?

"It can't be! It must be Mi Yan, this guy is cheating and trying to fool you and my brother! ”

Zhang Yingxuan stroked his goatee under his chin, "Whether you cheat or not, you will naturally see when you enter Yangzhou City!" He suddenly turned his head and glanced at Chen Kaiyuan again, "Why, listening to Brother Zi'an's tone, don't you want to recover Yangzhou so soon?" ”

"This, how is this possible!" Chen Kaiyuan's face immediately turned red, and he was a little embarrassed to be asked by his colleagues and old friends, as if someone had peeked into the secret in his heart.

"Let go of Ben Shuai, let go of Ben Shuai, you guys eat things inside and out, how can Lao Tzu treat you badly on weekdays?"

Yang Bama's feet were tied to the saddle, and he was helpless no matter how he argued, while the war horse was led by the two personal soldiers he trusted the most, and was walking back along the escape route.

The slightly taller pro-soldier spoke politely, "Leader Yang, it's not our brothers who betrayed you, these years people don't kill for themselves, you have now become a lost dog, our brothers can't die with you, right?" ”

"You bastard, Lao Tzu should have let you die on the battlefield in the first place, but I didn't expect to save you, a white-eyed wolf! Yes! ”

The other slightly fat pro-soldier was not so polite, and raised the horsewhip in his hand and whipped it towards Yang Bama's front. Yang Bama was scolding, and when he was caught off guard, he was slanted from his left eye to his right jaw, and suddenly a blood mark arched up.

"If you make any more noise, I'll kill you!"

"Chen Zhu'er, you bastard...... Oops......"

Chen Zhu'er didn't care how black-hearted he was before, and now Yang Bama is not as good as a chicken, so he raised the whip in his hand without any scruples and whipped it hard. The pain made Yang Bama scream, he couldn't hide and couldn't hide, so he could only drink hatred and beg for mercy: "Brother Chen, don't, don't smoke!" ”

Chen Zhu'er snorted and said with a big yellow tooth monster and said, "Do you think you are still handsome?" Dare to order Lao Tzu? Lao Tzu sucked you to death, sucked you to death! ”

The strength in his hand increased again, he was so whipped by Yang Bama for an hour, the skin of his entire back was broken, and Lang Zhong said that he was dead, and it was a miracle that he could come back to life.

The thin soldier was afraid that Chen Zhu'er would suck Yang Bama to death, so he stopped him and said, "Brother Chen, don't wait for him to receive the reward, and then be sucked to death by us!" ”

Chen Zhu'er reluctantly stopped, and pointed at Yang Bama and scolded viciously: "It's cheap for you!" ”

The army entered the city, but Mi Yan always felt a little regretful, that is, he ran away from Yang Bama, the defender of Yangzhou, if this person was caught and sent to Nanjing, it would be perfect. Even God seemed to hear his heart, and soon a personal soldier came to report.

"Someone outside the city claimed to have captured Yang Bama alive to receive the reward!"

It turned out that Mi Yan gave a reward of 10,000 taels of silver and a seventh-grade military attache to reward Yang Bama, but he didn't expect it to really work.

Chen Zhu'er danced in front of Mi Yan, and depicted how he caught Yang Bama. Chen Kaiyuan, who was watching the excitement on the sidelines, suddenly interjected and asked: "So, are you selling your master as a servant?" ”

Chen Kaiyuan hates this kind of traitor for glory the most, although the reward is first, but he also doesn't want this kind of villain with no moral character to be awarded a big confession, as for the promise of ten thousand taels of silver, he might as well fulfill it. However, Miyan unceremoniously rejected his suggestion.

"How can a man be untrustworthy?"

Chen Kaiyuan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Why do you need to pay attention to faith and righteousness for villains? ”

Mi Yan said righteously: "If faith and righteousness are set up because of people, how is it different from repeated villains? ”

Chen Kaiyuan was speechless by Mi Yanding, and his face was flushed.

After identifying Yang Bama's body, Mi Yan wrote the names of Chen Zhu'er and the others on the blank notice on the spot, and ordered someone to carry and seize 10,000 taels of silver from the thief soldiers.

"This prison army is true to its word, whether you sell the lord or not, the rewards will be honored, and now the money is yours!" As he spoke, he waved the two more farewells out.

Chen Zhu'er was so excited that he was grateful, and knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

However, Mi Yan suddenly turned his head to look at Chen Kaiyuan again and asked, "Killing one's father with one's son, what crime should one be guilty of according to the law of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Chen Kaiyuan was stunned by Mi Yan's question, and subconsciously replied: "According to the Ming criminal law, killing one's father with a son is hurtful, and he should be punished with Ling Chi!" ”

Mi Yan nodded, and then turned to Chen Zhu'er who was kneeling on the ground: "What is the difference between the two of you selling your master as a servant and killing your father with your son?" Even if the crime is reduced by one degree, you should be sentenced to be cut in half! ”

"Come on, pull these two thieves out and cut them down!"

Mi Yan changed his words abruptly, and Chen Zhu'er was shocked and accused him of going back on his word and not believing his words.

Mi Yan sneered and said: "Don't worry, this body will be buried with you with ten thousand taels of silver, and this prison army will never break its promise to Yu Er and other villains!" ”

Chen Zhu'er knew that he was in a catastrophe, and regretted that he was consumed by profit, so he threw himself into the net, even though he got a piece of paper and 10,000 taels of silver, but he had no life to bear! In desperation, he kowtowed like garlic: "The villain doesn't dare, the villain knows that he is wrong, beg the big man to spare the villain's life, ask the big man to spare the villain's dog's life, the villain is willing to be a cow and a horse for the big man for the rest of his life!" ”

"You are a cow and horse, this prison army is afraid that it can't stand it!"

The soldiers pounced on them like wolves, dragged Chen Zhu'er and the two of them out, and one of them cut down with an axe. The cruelty of the punishment of beheading is that after cutting a person into two sections, he will not die for a while, but he will endure great pain, and he will be hurt to death and tortured to death!

Until the two of them died, Mi Yan ordered the bodies of the two to be displayed outside Yangzhou for three days. Three days later, Mi Yan revealed to the whole city that he would never break his promise and get fat, and ordered the two to be buried in the west of the city, and all the silver and silver were used as funeral goods.

When Chen Kaiyuan and Zhang Yingxuan mentioned this matter, they couldn't help but sigh in admiration, not only fulfilling their faith, but also punishing the traitors who seek glory, in order to educate the world, saying that they are not as good as Mi Yan.

"Brother Zi'an, can't you see the evil intentions hidden by Mi Yan?"

"Evil heart?"

Chen Kaiyuan was stunned when asked.

Zhang Yingxuan shook his head, "Mi Yan showed the whole city, he won't break his word and get fat, but if you think about it again, just wait for the Three Guards to leave, who wouldn't be blushing with the ten thousand taels of silver?" ”

After Zhang Yingxuan's reminder, Chen Kaiyuan patted his head and suddenly realized.

"What a desperate means, these two thieves will definitely not be dug up and dug up!"

Indeed, there are 10,000 taels of silver buried in the two lonely tombs, which is a well-known secret in Yangzhou City, who can turn a blind eye to this? Thinking of this truth, Chen Kaiyuan suddenly felt a chill rising from his abdomen, this prisoner who usually looked weak had such a vicious temperament, he couldn't help but beat a spirit.

Mi Yan sat in Yangzhou to clean up the situation, and only sent a partial division to the north.

Seven days later, the news was transmitted back to Yangzhou City, and Gaoyou and Baoying looked down on the wind. The Huai'an Mansion, where the main force of the Fifth Battalion of the Revolution is entrenched, is close at hand.

Chen Kaiyuan and Zhang Yingxuan high-fived each other, never expected that this time the troops would be so smooth, and now Lu Xiangsheng's troops in Suqian, as long as the Shanyang and Qinghe of Huai'an Mansion are broken, the work of restoring the canal in this battle will be completed.

In the face of the imminent victory, Chen Kaiyuan and Zhang Yingxuan were a little inexplicably worried, it stands to reason that the last person who wants to see the north and south of the Grand Canal should be Li Xin, but he and his subordinates are so active in their lives, it is really incomprehensible.

"Could it be that the Marquis of Zhenyu is to blame?"

Chen Kaiyuan's senses for Li Xin suddenly changed. Zhang Yingxuan nodded, shook his head again, and then nodded again. This made Chen Kaiyuan more and more confused.

"Brother Baomo, what do you mean by nodding your head this time and shaking your head again a while?"

After a long time, Zhang Yingxuan sighed, "I always feel that the development of things will not be so simple, look at it, there must be something we haven't been able to calculate, see!" ”

However, this time Chen Kaiyuan was very dissatisfied with Zhang Yingxuan's judgment, "Lu Gebu and Zhenyu Marquis are both famous ministers and generals in the world, if they are willing to use their lives, can the five battalions of Gezuo, who are still trapped in beasts, turn against the sky?" ”
