There is a way to cut the grass without removing the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows.

Zhu Zilong naturally understands this truth.

Finally, I was able to take advantage of the fire to rob and borrow a knife to kill someone. Will Zhu Zilong let go of the private salt giants who did not run out to ask for protection?

Oh, how is this possible!

So, soon, under the pretext of arresting the rebellious people, a large number of the first military camp of the Zhu family army rushed into the mansions of some rich salt merchants.

At this time, the largest one was in the Zheng Mansion.

The old man of the porter scolded angrily: "You bastards, do you know whose mansion this is, this is Master Zheng's house, do you know how much of a sin you have committed?" Let me tell you, as long as our lord sends a name card to the government office, you all have to squat one by one! ”

It's just that the only thing that answered him was a shiny knife.

In the next second, the old man's eyes widened, covered his wounds, and fell to the ground, his intestines flowing all over the ground.

"This is the harbouring of important criminals, and this mansion is all surrounded, and no one is allowed to escape, and if they encounter resistance, they will be killed!" Ma Xiaosan commanded loudly.

"Yes!"

Soon, in this originally solemn mansion, bursts of sharp screams and screams immediately sounded.

There are more than 100 people in the direct and collateral lines of the entire Zheng family, plus more than 800 people such as maids, family members, nursing homes, and old mothers.

Therefore, the escort force in the Zheng Mansion is no less than that of a hundred households.

It's just that when the nurses and the family members angrily used knives, guns and sticks and rushed towards the front of the house. They were shocked to find that waiting in front of them were rows of Ming sergeants standing neatly and holding spears and birds.

Official, military?

The leader of the courtyard was also clever, and when he saw that there were hundreds of sergeants waiting in front of him, he knew that it was not good. So, in the next second, he hurriedly raised his hand to signal his subordinates to stop, and at the same time shouted and asked:

"Who are you, this is the Zheng Mansion, if you dare to trespass on the house, aren't you afraid that our master will sue you to go to the peak!"

Ma Xiaosan just smiled coldly, ignored the words of the nurse, and said: "This official has received a report that your Zheng Mansion colluded with the rogues to rebel, and now this official is ordered to arrest you and others, you immediately put down your weapons and surrender, those who are stubborn, today next year is your death day!" ”

Ma Xiaosan's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, stunned these nurses with knives, guns and sticks.

They are not soldiers and regular soldiers in the end, and they are inherently lacking in confidence to oppose the government army.

The concept of civil discord and official struggle is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, including them, of course.

However, thinking of Master Zheng's power. There are also these high wages, and after a long time, the head of the nursing home shouted in shock and anger: "This is impossible, how can my master do such a rebellious thing, you are framed!" ”

Ma Xiaosan continued to sneer: "You count that X, now the official counts three times, if you don't immediately put down your arms and surrender, don't blame the official for being polite." ”

"Okay, I want to see how you people are not polite, do you dare to openly kill people in the Zheng Mansion?" The leader of the nursing home still can't believe that Ma Xiaosan will really kill someone.

For a long time, no one in the entire city government dared to treat the Zheng Mansion like this, and in his opinion, even the prefect had to be polite when he came to the Zheng Mansion. What are these soldiers, Da Ming is the world of civilian officials!

"One!"

"Put!"

has been following Zhu Zilong for a long time, and now even the pure Ma Xiaosan has been broken, and he obviously said that he would shoot after counting three times.

As a result, Ma Xiaosan just counted the first time, just called a word out, and the next second others were still waiting for him to call two. Why did this gun fire?

The preparation was not good for a while, and hundreds of nursing homes on the spot gave the beaters X horses.

"Bang bang

The dull sound of gunfire was particularly harsh.

By the time the first round of gunfire had been fired, more than 100 of them had fallen in pools of blood.

Looking at the people who fell in front of him, Ma Xiaosan's discipline was obviously about to become negative, and he directly ordered to fire again.

"Bang bang bang" "Bang bang bang" "Bang bang bang" "Bang bang bang"!

The sound of thumping sounded again, and the guards were as sparse as sand sifted by a dustpan, leaving less than a dozen people scattered in place. The other 90% of the people are honorably taking the boxed lunch back to their hometown!

There was silence at the scene, and only the sound of "clanging" was heard.

The long knives in the hands of the remaining nurses fell to the ground paved with bluestones, and one by one they were scared and peed their pants. Get on your knees!

"Don't shoot, we surrender!"

Soon, Ma Xiaosan led people towards the depths of the inner courtyard.

In the middle, there was already a brocade guard sneaking in, and when he saw Ma Xiaosan coming. shouted: "Master Ma, the head of the Zheng family has been caught." ”

Similar scenes have occurred in the mansions of the Liu Mansion, the Li Mansion, the Ma Mansion, and other salt smugglers in the city.

Subsequently, the remnants of the old man of the family were escorted to Zhu Zilong.

Zhu Zilong sat there and drank the wine in his hand, and asked an old man, "Are you the head of the Zheng family?" ”

I saw the head of the Zheng family, and replied proudly: "You dog Hou listen well, the old man will not change his name or change his surname, it is Zheng Chenggong, the head of the Zheng family." The old man can tell you clearly that you must be dead if you do such a great rebellion. But if you are willing to repent now, the old man can make the decision to spare your family's death. A whole corpse for you! ”

Ha? Whole corpses?

Zhu Zilong laughed dumbly, and his wine glasses fell to the ground with laughter.

Originally, Chong's name was Zheng Chenggong, and he had the same name and surname as a person, and he wanted to play for a few more minutes. I didn't think about it, this old man didn't die!

There was silence all around, and it was a long time before a burst of laughter broke out. The soldiers of the Zhu family army next to him all laughed and leaned back, this old man is now difficult to protect himself, and he even dares to threaten the Hou Ye?

After laughing, Zhu Zilong looked at the brain-dead head of the Zheng family with a trace of sadness on his face.

This old man is dying and still pretending to be a big-tailed wolf, and he doesn't know where he got his confidence. When this kind of person faces the Qing army, I'm afraid he will either be a traitor or die, right?

These people claim to be the elite of the country, but they desperately cling to the body of the Ming Dynasty and sucking the flesh and blood of the Ming court and the people.

Damn it!

They are desperately trying to seize power from the emperor with the civilian clique, and in their hearts they actually treat the emperor as a puppet.

Damn it!

Under the banner of asking the emperor to "not compete with the people for profit, but hide wealth from the people", they did evil things behind their backs.

Damn it!

The phrase "Zhumen's wine and meat stinks and there are frozen bones on the road" is talking about these rich gentry, just like these merchants who smuggle salt.

Damn it!

The next minute, Zhu Zilong walked over.

"If you want to shoot, it's just a waste of Benhou's bullets."

"Hmph, Gouhou, how about An Dare?" The head of the Zheng family still wanted to pretend, but he didn't wait for him to finish speaking, the next second.

He felt a chill pass through his neck, and as he shook, he was surprised to find that he could actually see behind him.

This, this, this?

No one answered him, because his human head had fallen to the floor.

Shang Fang's sword, such as my own arrival.

If you don't come out of the sky, who will compete?

The head of the Zheng family fell to the ground, and his dead eyes looked directly at the Shang Fang sword in Zhu Zilong's hand. And, his headless corpse, which was spurting blood, slowly fell to the ground-
