Volume 2 Nanyang Chapter 171 Aftermath Containment
Chapter 171: Aftermath Recovery
"What?" Zhu Houhuang was taken aback. He never expected it. He was surprised and delighted at the same time. I was shocked that the war, which I thought would take a long time, ended like this. The joy is that you don't have to waste too much time here.
"Yu Dayou, what's going on?" He asked carefully.
Yu Dayou immediately told Zhu Houhuang what he had done. In the end, he pleaded guilty and said: "The general will be outside, and the king's order will not be accepted." This victory is meritorious, defeat is a fault, what is the sin. ”
Yu Dayou said: "Your Highness Xie." ”
Wu Ming glanced at Yu Dayou deeply, and secretly complained to Zhu Houhuang in his heart that he let Yu Dayou pick up a bargain. The great credit in hand slipped through his hands like this.
Zhu Houhuang didn't care, who had more credit and who had less credit was a very indifferent thing to Zhu Houhuang. said: "Let's go, go up the mountain and take a look." ”
Tossed for most of the night, and when Zhu Houhuang walked to the mountain, the sky was already bright.
Zhu Houhuang walked on the mountain road, looking at the crowd kneeling on both sides. Guarded by dozens of soldiers, all the way to the cottage.
Zhu Houhuang glanced at it from the outside and knew that this cottage was a shoddy product. It's just a stone wall made of large and small stones, which looks relatively strong, but in fact it is vulnerable.
Both gates are made of hardwood, and not even clad iron. However, the mountain is very steep, and it seems to be a slope all the way up.
After Zhu Houhuang entered the gate, he saw more captives. However, Zhu Houhuang was not interested in this.
"How many casualties did you take in this battle?" Zhu Houhuang asked.
"Only a few people had broken their ankles." Yu Dayou said.
It was a very painful battle. Little resistance was encountered.
"Bring that Boss Zheng over to me." Zhu Houhuang said.
In the cottage hall, a wooden chair with a speckled frame sits on the main seat. It was covered with the skin of a tiger or a leopard.
Zhu Houhuang sat on the main seat, and a person was thrown below, his face was covered with blood and bruises, so that Yu Dayou couldn't recognize it for a while. Boss Zheng must have been repaired.
Zhu Houhuang was a little disappointed in his heart, if Boss Zheng was like a man and had an extraordinary bearing, Zhu Houhuang would still be able to raise a little love for talent, but seeing Boss Zheng like this, he felt a little contempt in his heart.
He asked, "Are you guilty?" ”
"Guilty? Hehe. Zheng Lao laughed loudly: "Becoming a king and defeating a king, what is there to say." But I am here today, and you must be proud, and I believe that my brother will avenge me. ”
Zhu Houhuang saw that he was stubborn, and he had no intention of entanglement with him, and with a wave of his hand, someone immediately pulled Boss Zheng down. Good students will be detained, and then they will be punished.
After Boss Zheng was dragged down, more than a dozen people immediately came up, each of them struggling to carry a large box. With a thud, it slammed into the ground.
This is the seizure from the warehouse.
Zhu Houhuang walked down, came to the front of the box and said, "Open it." ”、
Zhu Houhuang gave an order, and the box was opened, and for a while, the golden light was shining, and the golden sand, gold nuggets, were densely piled up in a box. Although Zhu Houhuang is a little tight now, he is not a person who has never seen money, but at this moment, when he sees so much money, he is still shocked. After all, the money he saw was all written in the account book, and it was the first time he had seen so much gold. Not to mention that the gold is not smelted gold bars, but natural gold sand, and irregular gold nuggets.
It wasn't just Zhu Houhuang who was surprised. Zhu Houhuang was still a little determined, he immediately came back to his senses and said, "Open it all." ”
More than a dozen boxes were all opened, and for a while, the entire hall was full of jewels, and it was almost blinding.
The sound of "goo-dong, goo-dong" reached Zhu Houhuang's ears, and Zhu Houhuang waved his hand and said, "These golds will be rewarded to the three armies." ”
"Your Highness Xie, Your Highness Wansheng." All the soldiers were overjoyed when they heard this, and they praised in unison.
In everyone's mind, they have a different concept of wealth. In Zhu Houhuang's eyes, more than a dozen boxes of gold, although very valuable, can solve a large part of it for him. But compared to this point, Zhu Houhuang is more interested in the morale of the army.
Zhu Houhuang took King Yong's army as the cornerstone of the rule of the entire Yongguo, so he naturally had to think about them, and he couldn't eat meat by himself and let his subordinates drink soup.
Although Zhu Houhuang set a lot of salaries for the officials around him, Zhu Houhuang must consider this for thousands of miles for officials to make money.
Don't look at the amount of gold rewarded this time, but it is really in the hands of the soldiers, but it is only ten taels or eight taels of gold, and they are paid for a year, and most of them are in the officers at all levels, this is not corruption, but the army's own class.
"Your Highness." An officer suddenly came from outside and said, "There's a new discovery out there." ”
Zhu Houhuang asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The officer who reported the news had a sad look on his face and said: "In the back mine, there are many people locked up, and the situation is unbearable. ”
Zhu Houhuang frowned and said, "Take me to see it." ”
Under the guidance of people, Zhu Houhuang went to the gold mining area.
The place where the gold is mined is not in the cottage, but it is not far from the cottage, in the mountains behind the cottage.
After bypassing the cottage, Zhu Houhuang entered a place that he will never forget.
This is a canyon, and in the middle of the canyon, there is a river that flows slowly. On the hillside by the small river, there are many caves. These caves are all newly dug, and they all look like rat holes, black holes. Zhu Houhuang walked over to the entrance of the cave, but found a person naked.
There are both men and women, and they don't look like people at all, but like humanoid animals. In each cave, it was so deep that it was impossible to see how many people there were. Zhu Houhuang looked at everyone's eyes, they were all stagnant water, and he couldn't see the slightest hope.
Zhu Houhuang asked, "How many people are here?" ”
"I don't know how many people there are here, it's just the people robbed by Zheng Bandits, some of them are here, some of them are in the back of the mine, here are all old, weak, sick and disabled, panning for gold in the river, and the strong people are in the mine."
Zhu Houhuang estimated that there were at least 10,000 people in this area.
He didn't say anything, and soon came to the mine. Zhu Houhuang was about to walk in, Li Liangqin said: "Your Highness, the son of a daughter can't sit down, in this mine, the terrain is complicated, and it is extremely easy to collapse, Your Highness still don't go in." ”
Zhu Houhuang said: "Okay, call out all the miners inside." and find out the Zheng bandit and the leaders of his subordinates. ”
"Yes."
After half a day's work, the entire canyon was densely packed with people, and Zhu Houhuang saw at a glance that there was no other color, all of them were black, with black skin, black clothes, and black hair.
Their black was not specially dyed black, but they had been crawling and rolling in the mine for an unknown number of times, and they had not changed their clothes, and they were all dyed black.
Zhu Houhuang said: "Lone is the king of Yong, and Dongyong is the jurisdiction of Lone. When he said a word, several people immediately spread the word, respectively in Hakka, the indigenous language of Beigang, as well as the official dialect and the local dialect of Fujian.
Zhu Houhuang continued: "You are waiting in Dongyong, and they are all lonely people. Lonely and missing, Ling Er and others suffered. Today, I will solve you alone, Zheng Bandit is extremely evil. Today, the Ming Dynasty is punishing the canonical punishment to avenge your hatred. ”
Dozens of people led by Boss Zheng are all Boss Zheng's henchmen and people with status in the cottage. They were pressed together.
It seemed to be a pool of stagnant crowds, and I don't know who opened their mouths and scolded: "Kill him." ”
More than 10,000 people suddenly turned into a boiling ocean. Zhu Houhuang's soldiers arranged everywhere were almost uncontrollable.
Yu Dayou pulled out the fire system and fired a shot into the sky, which can be regarded as calming the scene.
Zheng Boss has dozens of them, all of them are tied up, and there are things stuffed in their mouths. Whine, can't say anything. Dozens of soldiers were drawn out to serve as executioners temporarily. Dozens of human heads were cut off, blood spurted out several feet away, and skulls rolled all over the ground.
