Follow Zhu Yuanzhang to conquer the country

Chapter 24 This is not a bandit soldier, but a king’s master!
  Jia Zhili, Zhao Lu and other officials were eventually captured alive due to the large number of Yuan soldiers surrendering.

just.

There was another Yuan court official in Chuzhou City who was not at Zhizhou Yamen, but had already fled after hearing about the chaos in advance.

This official is Daru Hua Chima Shili of the Yuan Dynasty.

According to the Yuan system, all local government offices in the Yuan Dynasty had the post of Daru Huachi.

Daruhuachi held local administrative and military power and was the highest official at all levels. After the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty officially stipulated that each Daruhuachi should be appointed by Mongolians, and the general manager should be Han Chinese and Tongzhiyou. Hui Hui people act.

After that, the Han people became Daru Huachi, and the Yuan Dynasty dismissed him from his official position.

When there is a shortage of Mongolians, Semu people with "rooted feet" (noble family background) are allowed to fill the role.

In general, Daru Hua Chi is equivalent to a unique official position for Mongolian nobles, and those who can become Daru Hua Chi are naturally Yuan Ting nobles.

There is also a Daru Huachi resident in Chuzhou, who is responsible for military and political affairs.

However, the current Chuzhou Daru Hua Chimasili did not escape from the city at this time, but was running towards a city gate.

However, fortunately, Zhang Cheng promptly asked the rebels who had entered the city to give up looting, seize various city gates, and began to maintain order, rectify chaos, and expand the results of the battle in an orderly manner.

Therefore, when Zhang Cheng followed Tang He to straighten out the order and came to the South City Gate, he happened to meet Daruhua Chimasli who came here with his soldiers and slaves.

Both sides were stunned for a moment.

Although Zhang Cheng had killed people before, he had only killed a defeated army and ordinary rebel soldiers who did not obey orders. They were all sneak attacks from behind, and he had never faced them in person.

And now.

Zhang Cheng looked at the fat-faced, sturdy man in front of him, who was not wearing armor but was wearing the official uniform of the Yuan Dynasty, with two braids and a gold medal hanging on his waist. When he met him head-on, he was still a little nervous, not knowing that he Can you defeat this person?

But after all, Zhang Cheng had seen blood, so he wasn't that timid, so he calmed himself down, wiped the bloody blade under his left armpit, then spread his legs, stepped into a lunge, and held his hands in both hands. Knife, keeping an eye on the fat-faced, sturdy man, and prepared to use the few moves he learned from Hua Yun to work with Tang He and others to eliminate the remnant enemy in front of them.

but.

Before Zhang Cheng had time to draw his sword, Masli on the opposite side suddenly started to turn around.

no way.

Mashili was extremely scared now. Looking at the tall man with blood all over his face, his legs were so frightened that it was quite troublesome to turn around. His heels were like lead, and it took him a while to turn around. Passed.

Notice.

Although Masli is a Daruhuachi, a Mongolian noble, he has never seen weapons in his life. On the contrary, he is good at poetry and songs.

So, why wasn't Masuli afraid when he saw Zhang Cheng with his face covered in blood?
  Zhang Cheng was quite stunned when Ma Shili turned around. In addition to his astonishment, his murderous intention suddenly aroused. He took the first step and stabbed Ma Shili's abdomen with just one knife.

"what!"

Masuli shouted.

Zhang Cheng immediately pulled out the knife after Ma Shili screamed, and after Ma Shili fell to the ground, he slashed his neck with another knife, and blood spattered on his face.

Zhang Cheng suddenly became like a blood demon. He was so frightened that he and the people from Masuli fled, some of them could only crawl away.

Zhang Cheng himself winked, and then cursed: "It was just another stab in the back! This Mongolian is really not as brave as he used to be."

With that said, Zhang Cheng pulled off the gold medal from the body of Masli, and told Tang He: "Arrange someone to take custody of this guy's body, and pour some cold water on it to prevent it from smelling too fast!"

"it is good!"

Tang He agreed and asked, "Mr. Zhang, what kind of official is this?"

"She should be a Daru Hua Chi, otherwise she wouldn't be wearing the gold medal."

After Zhang Cheng said that, he said: "We will continue patrolling."

It was now noon, the sun was shining brightly, the smell of blood became stronger under the heat wave, and the buzzing of flies had begun to be heard.

People became more and more agitated because of this, so many local ruffians were indeed preparing to take advantage of the chaos to rob, and even some powerful slaves from wealthy families began to want to do evil at this time.

Zhang Cheng, Tang He and others who were also in a very irritable mood were not polite and would kill anyone they saw doing evil. "You go grab the rice from the rice shop opposite. Go quickly and say that you are rebels. The merchants in the rice shop will not dare to sue! Just in time, you can also ruin the reputation of these thieves and let them set up shop in Chuzhou City. Unsteady on your feet!”

Yan Wuliang, who had been an official of the Yuan Dynasty, started to give instructions to his newly acquired slave Jin Yikui and others through his own door, laughing secretly as he spoke.

"I am willing to work hard for my master!"

After Jin Yikui agreed, he sneaked out from the Lujiajiao door, rushed into the Lijia rice shop opposite, and started grabbing rice.

"What are you doing!"

"Go away, I am a rebel. Now I am expropriating your rice. If you dare to disobey me, I will chop you up!"

Jin Yikui kicked away Li Gui, the owner of Lijia Rice Shop, who tried to stop him.

Li Gui had no choice but to curse: "You robbers!"

Jin Yikui just sneered, but as soon as he and his accomplices came out carrying rice, they were bumped into by Tang He.

Tang He immediately beheaded several of his companions, and Jin Yikui immediately threw rice on the ground and knelt down to beg for mercy.

After hearing this, Tang He couldn't help but angrily said to Zhang Cheng: "Mr. Zhang, damn, someone is ruining the reputation of our rebel army!"

"Arrest him first and keep him as evidence until the superiors deal with it. It is important that we continue to maintain order and prevent other wealthy families from taking advantage of the chaos to embezzle people's property and throw dirty water on our rebels."

Zhang Cheng ordered.

Tang He nodded and glared hatefully at the Yan family's gate opposite.

And this time.

Yan Wuliang also saw the scene of Jin Yikui and others being killed and arrested through the crack in the door. He couldn't help but be stunned, his smile suddenly disappeared, and he became panicked.

"oops!"

"The leader of this group of thieves is really resourceful."

"Don't go burning down Gu's shop. Just stay here. If you go out now, you will only be killed, and it will easily lead to the destruction of the family."

at the same time.

Ren Qiande, another wealthy householder in Chuzhou City, also sighed after seeing the rebels maintaining order. After saying a few words, he stopped the domestic slaves he was about to send to cause trouble.

At this time, Jin gentry Yang Yuangao, who was also a big family in Chuzhou, turned from uneasiness to joy. He smiled at his son Yang Bi and said: "This is not a bandit, this is the king's master!"

"The commander of this army must be a powerful person, one who has been blessed by destiny!"

"We can't go against nature!"

then.

Yang Yuangao then told his son Yang Bi: "My son, please quickly order people to open the middle door, set up benches on the street, take bowls of exquisite snacks from our house and put them outside to reward Master Wang, and take some food at the same time." Put a few buckets of water outside so that they can quench their thirst, wash their faces and hands, and then tell people to prepare better food, go quickly!"

Yang Ben raised his hand and said yes.

Then, Yang Yuangao said to the elders of his clan: "Let's go and kneel down to greet them. This army is obviously more disciplined than the Yuan soldiers. They will win the world in the future. Even if they don't win the world, we can still maintain good relations with them now." Peace for a while.”

The Yang clan elders all nodded in agreement.

So, not long after, Yang Yuangao and others came out and knelt on the street, set up incense tables, set up memorial tablets for obedient people, and shouted words of welcome to Master Wang.

There are indeed different effects between groups that have violence and those that have violence but do not use violence but only use violence to maintain order.

Therefore, after Zhang Cheng asked Tang He and others not to kill and loot but to maintain order, he soon found that not only were there fewer ruffians and gangsters looting, but more people opened their doors and knelt down to greet them.

"Mr. Zhang, so many Confucian scholars and gentry have begun to kneel down to welcome us!"

Tang He couldn't help but talk to Zhang Cheng when he saw this.
