With Tong Guan arriving at Daming Mansion, it means that the war between the imperial court and Jingdong has officially entered the countdown.
And just when Guan Sheng was about to go on an expedition, a piece of news reached Song Jiang.
"Hangzhou was captured??" Song Jiang said in surprise on the way from Shanzhou back to Jingdong Mansion.
"Yes, the military advisor just sent this. Because Jiangning Mansion was occupied by the rebels, Fang La didn't have to worry about anything. He directly mobilized armies from all over the country, assembled 60,000 soldiers and horses, and captured Hangzhou, the most important city in the south of the Yangtze River. The imperial court The envoy Chen Jian and the envoy Zhao Yue were both killed, and no one in the whole Jiangnan can threaten Fang La." Zhu Wu nodded and said,
"It's so fast!!" Song Jiang looked at the love report.
"It's fast, but unstable," Zhu Wu said with a frown.
When Song Jiang heard this, he shook his head.
"Brother Zhu, what do you mean by this??" Pei Xuan next to him asked a little confused.
After reading it, Song Jiang directly handed over the information.
"Although the Jiangnan Rebels seemed majestic, they killed too much. According to Xu Fu's report, every time the Jiangnan Rebels captured a city, they burned, killed and looted it. They treated the wealthy gentry like pigs and dogs, and even cut their flesh into pieces. Extremely cruel methods such as removing limbs, taking their lungs and intestines, and boiling them into ointment are not what the rebels did!!" Zhu Wudao said.
After reading the information carefully, Pei Xuan suddenly looked angry and said: "Is this still called a rebel army?? Fang La, I thought he was also a hero, but now it seems that he is not as good as his brother!!"
Song Jiang waved his hand and sighed: "We can't control the affairs of Jiangnan even if we want to. Although what we have done is a bit excessive, there is nothing we can do about it."
"Brother is wise"
"Brother, if the Jiangnan Rebels behave like this, they will definitely be hated by the people. In this case, can they stop the famous general Zhong Shidao?" Pei Xuan asked worriedly.
"There is no need to worry about this. The situation in Jiangning Mansion where Wang Yin is sitting is relatively good. As long as Jiangning Mansion does not lose its control, it can control the natural dangers of the Yangtze River. Coupled with my support from Jingdong, there will be no problem in sustaining it for several years. In addition, after all, there are still "Zushi Yuan, Miss Fang and the others are here," Zhu Wudao said.
Song Jiang nodded and sighed: "Actually, I still hope that Brother Fang can take care of it so that the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River is not destroyed."
"It's a pity that we, JD.com, have now reached a critical moment, so we should stop engaging in friction."
"Brother, don't worry. Shaoyang has gone to Jinan. As long as he helps Brother Wu Song, even a hundred thousand troops will never cross Jinan." After hearing this, Zhu Wu consoled him.
"I hope so. By the way, in order to ensure the alliance between JD.com and Jiangnan, we still have to send someone to congratulate you."
"yes"
. . .
At this time, in the city of Hangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, the most prosperous city in the south of the Yangtze River was in a mess. Although the war was over, the sounds of wailing and crying seemed to be everywhere.
When there was a sound of footsteps, Fang Baihua led a group of soldiers walking on the somewhat chaotic streets, with a look of shame in his eyes.
"Beasts, you bunch of beasts!" At this moment, angry shouts suddenly rang out. When several volunteers had just put on their clothes and walked out happily, an old man with tears in his face rushed into the room behind Cong. He came out and hit them with a wooden stick.
"court death"
"Stop!" When Fang Baihua shouted, the old man had already been killed with a knife.
When Fang Baihua arrived, several people were shocked and quickly said in awe: "General"
Fang Baihua looked into the room at this time and saw a naked woman lying in it. It was obvious that she had just been insulted.
"Bastard" Fang Baihua angrily drew his sword and beheaded a soldier in front of him. Looking at the other people who were frightened and screaming, he said with cold eyes: "Take them down and kill them all!!"
"yes!"
"General, spare your life, spare your life!!"
Looking at the few people who were taken away directly, a female general next to her quickly comforted her with some helplessness: "General, this is why morale is boosted!!"
"Morale, if morale is boosted by a woman's body, then would such a rebel army still be called a rebel army?"
"Why do we want to revolt? It's because the court is corrupt and the people are suffering. But now what we are doing is ten times more ruthless than the court. If this continues, will there be people who will resist our rule in the future?!" Fang Baihua said angrily.
"this.."
"The rebels shouldn't be like this. In terms of wealth, people, and terrain, Jingdong is far inferior to Jiangnan and is adjacent to the imperial capital. But look at the news coming back from Jingdong. The states and counties are living and working in peace and contentment, with clear rewards and punishments, and the people Supported by scholars and wealthy families, being on the edge of the imperial capital, the court is really helpless, but what about us?? Seizing a great opportunity, we really only know how to rob. If you think about it carefully, in the state capital we have taken now, the officials arranged , there are a few who can really govern the people, but most of them regard the yamen as a plaything and moral articles as bullshit. If Brother Wang hadn't been in charge of Jiangning, how long could our rebel army have lasted!!" Fang Baihua said with worry on her face.
The female general trembled and said quickly: "General, don't worry, this is just the beginning. When it stabilizes, the Holy Duke will definitely give orders to stabilize the situation!!"
Fang Baihua's eyes narrowed, "Let's go, let's go see brother right away."
"yes!!"
. . .
At this time, there was also a quarrel going on in the yamen. Zu Shiyuan looked at Fang La with a serious face and said: "Holy Duke, military discipline must be strictly enforced, otherwise Hangzhou will be doomed if this continues."
"Shi Yuan, the soldiers below finally captured Hangzhou. It's time to enjoy themselves for a few days. Are you a little alarmist?" Lou Minzhong said nonchalantly across from him.
Zu Shiyuan glanced angrily. Ever since the army officially revolted, he and Lou Minzhong had become more and more dissatisfied. Although Lou Minzhong was wise, his methods were too ruthless. In the past, he might have supported it, but after Cong Liangshan returned, , he felt that Liangshan was taking the right path. Although the killings were shocking, they had indeed lost their roots and had no long-term thinking.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Zu Shiyuan looked at Fang La again and said: "Shenggong, you are the master who wants to achieve great things. You are the only hero in the world who can rival Jingdong Song Jiang's brother. Now in terms of military exploits, Shenggong even surpasses him." Brother Song Jiang, the next step is governance. If people know that Shenggong’s subordinates act casually and ignore military regulations, then..."
When Fang La heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately said: "What Shi Yuan said is absolutely true. We are here to overthrow the imperial court. We must not kill people at will. If the order goes down, whoever dares to violate military discipline will be executed!!"
"yes!!"
When Lou Minzhong saw this scene, his face suddenly darkened. He didn't mean that Zu Shiyuan's suggestion was wrong, but he just couldn't understand that Zu Shiyuan often moved Song Jiang out because of Liangshan and his party. Fang La was particularly fond of Song Jiang. In our friendship, we often say that the heroes of the world are only me and Song Gong Ming'er! !
After all, he has never met Song Jiang, so he is not qualified to say such things. As a result, now, he, the first think tank of the Jiangnan Rebel Army and the newly appointed magistrate of Hangzhou, is often suppressed by Zu Shiyuan and loses a lot of face.
Looking at Zu Shiyuan who left happily, Lou Minzhong couldn't help but have a cold look in his eyes.
