Chapter 622: Return to Fengyang

Zhu Dadian was like a defeated rooster was forcibly sent back to Fengyang City, when the Huai'an army arrived in Fengyang City, Li Xin had an anti-guest posture, and organized the whole city to welcome the general soldiers and pro-soldiers and horses into the city with a very grand ceremony. As for Sun Zhijie's army, like the main force of the Three Guards, it was stationed in the east of the city.

Sun Zhijie didn't expect that this beautiful show was arranged in Fengyang City, and at first he was not confident that he might be welcoming the arrival of a certain big man, until the ceremonial officer sang Sun Zhijie's official name and surname, and he was sure that this was indeed welcoming him. Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, Sun Zhijie happily entered the city, and after entering the east city gate, Huo Ran was bright in front of him, and the people, the army and the people were all in the middle of the road to greet each other, and the sound of warm cheers penetrated through the sky. In this kind of situation, I'm afraid that how many people will not have the opportunity to see it with their own eyes.

Faintly, Sun Zhijie couldn't help but snicker, and regarded himself as a great hero who solved the siege of Fengyang, and calmly accepted this over-standard and unique welcome ceremony. Because such a welcoming scene has to be cooperated by the officials of the city, and the scene in front of him is of course the result of public discussion, so why be ashamed of it?

What Sun Zhijie didn't know was that this grand welcome scene was all the result of Li Xin and He Tengjiao's running. Of course, the purpose of doing this is not for Sun Zhijie's small general army, the deeper reason is that after several changes in Fengyang, the hearts of the army and the people in the city have fallen to the bottom, and in order to re-stimulate the morale of the army and the people, this unprecedented welcome ceremony was produced.

The pro-soldiers and horses of the Huai'an General Army are bright and bright, majestic, high-spirited, and arrogant, but they will also be stunned by the soldiers and civilians in Fengyang City, and they have praised and sighed, so the military power has finally been seen again since the Apocalypse Dynasty.

Listening to the loud comments of the people intermittently, Sun Zhijie was extremely proud, although this honor came a little inexplicably, but pie fell from the sky, how could there be no reason? On the contrary, Zhu Dadian, the governor of Fengyang, who was sandwiched in the pro-soldier team, was in a different state of mind.

Seeing that the soldiers and civilians of the city were welcoming this general soldier who had nothing to do with the battle of Fengyang with unprecedented enthusiasm, he couldn't help but scold the people for being blind, he wanted to jump out several times and claim that he Zhu Dadian was the biggest hero of the battle of Fengyang City, if it weren't for him, you would have become a thief and a lost dog by now, where would you stand here so calmly?

However, Zhu Dadian did not have the courage to stand up, because he was escorted back by Sun Zhijie in the name of a deserter, and in a short distance of more than ten miles, Sun Zhijie walked for a whole day. During the period, Sun Zhijie let him read several official documents with Li Xin in Fengyang City. Of course, Sun Zhijie didn't have a good heart when he did this, and the main point in these official correspondence was how to deal with Zhu Dadian. Li Xin seems to be kind in this regard, only saying that Zhu Dadian is a feudal official of the imperial court after all, although he is suspected of abandoning the land and fleeing privately, he should not be slow, he should only be placed under house arrest, brought back to Fengyang and then reported to the court for disposal.

Sun Zhijie also had a little doubt about Li Xin at the beginning, afraid that the two of them were angry and caused these incidents, but when he saw that Li Xin's statement was completely public-minded, his doubts disappeared. As for He Yilong's situation, it was not so good, Li Xin bluntly said that this person was a war criminal, and he must be dealt with by the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and he must be locked up and taken into the city.

In several official documents, the treatment of Zhu Dadian and He Yilong was completely different, but Sun Zhijie had to admire Li Xin's scheming, on the surface, he was extremely generous to Zhu Dadian, and left the place of governance without permission, even if it was reported, the court would at most reprimand it. But Zhu Dadian's trouble was to go with He Yilong in disguise, and He Yilong was one of the five thieves in the fifth battalion of the Revolution.

So, here's the problem. Zhu Dadian, as a feudal official, escaped with the rogue thieves, what does this mean, even a three-year-old boy can figure it out. Because of this, Sun Zhijie put away his contempt for this famous marquis, and instead tried his best to cooperate with this person's various constructions. Let's just say that to deal with He Yilong, Sun Zhijie's lock is not a simple control of his behavior, the 100 catties of chains and shackles are smashed to the hands and feet with a sledgehammer, that is, there is no key to solve at all, if you want to get rid of it again, I am afraid that there will be no work for a few days, it is difficult to take it safely without hurting the flesh and bones of the hands and feet. At the same time, in order to prevent He Yilong from talking nonsense, this Sun Zhijie also bothered a lot, and used something like a horse's chew, which was directly locked on his head and face, so that he couldn't even speak.

Seeing He Yilong's miserable situation, Zhu Dadian was shocked, and immediately put away his pleading for this person.

Zhu Dadian was mixed in the pro-soldier team, wearing the clothes of ordinary soldiers, and he was not very conspicuous. He Yilong is just the opposite, at the end of the pro-soldier team, Sun Zhijie specially arranged a war horse to pull this person, and a long wooden plaque was tied behind him, with seven blood-red characters written on it, "He Yilong, the first thief of the rogue"!

As the horse team passed, the soldiers and civilians who greeted each other finally noticed the locked man who came on a war horse, but there were not many literate people, so they pointed and guessed the identity of this person. Finally, a literate person in the crowd pointed to the wooden sign behind He Yilong, and read in an extremely excited tone: "The first thief He Yilong ......" As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly got out of control. In the six months before the 5th Battalion of the Revolution surrounded Fengyang, a group of men and horses had already fled from Yinghuo Mountain at the junction of Huguang and Henan rivers, and they had been suffering for a long time. The names of several big thieves in the fifth battalion of the left are naturally full of evil among the people of Fengyang.

Hearing that the person who was pulled by the war horse was He Yilong, one of the five thieves who were full of evil, the people who reacted first threw stones at him, spitted on him, and some even urinated in public and smashed it with blades of grass. All of a sudden, He Yilong became like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouted to beat him, and everyone shouted to kill him.

"Cut him...... Rip him ......"

"I think it's cheap to cut him......"

He Yilong was miserable with the torture equipment, but Zhu Dadian, who was in the team, was shocked to see it, and secretly scolded Li Xin's methods, and the civil and military officials in Fengyang City knew that they valued this person very much, and always let him accompany him whenever he traveled. However, he doesn't think that he has really reached the point of desperation at this moment, and there is still a card in his hand that has not been used, that is, Zhou Yanru, who has just gone to Beijing, has an old relationship with him, if he asks for it, he will not sit idly by, and will definitely help.

It's just that since Sun Zhijie's experience has been learned, Zhu Dadian has an additional layer of understanding of these old people's views, and whether it can be used has become unknown, and he can only take one step at a time, and whether he can get out of trouble and take revenge depends on God's creation.

While he was thinking wildly, a voice came to his ears, causing him to shudder.

"Look at that person, doesn't he look like our Governor Zhu?"

Looking at the lively crowd, someone finally recognized Zhu Dadian, who had been deliberately covering up repeatedly, after this reminder, there were people who did good things to carefully identify, and there were eighty percent similar, but they were also suspicious, and they all said that Governor Zhu Dadian had escaped, how could he come back with the army? This is obviously unreasonable, so it is not done.

However, these shouts attracted the attention of the guide officer, and he carefully distinguished it, and was sure that this person was Zhu Dadian, and he was immediately shocked. Regarding the news that Zhu Dadian was accused by Sun Zhijie, Li Xin kept it a secret from the officials in Fengyang City, so it is not surprising that this guide official was shocked at first sight.

However, the leading ceremonial officer had been suppressed by Zhu Dadian, and as soon as his eyes rolled flattened, he had an idea, pretended to be casual and called a soldier in the leading team, whispered two sentences and continued to move forward. After a while, he suddenly saw the soap official in Fengyang Mansion coming with the banner of the prefect, and broke into the team on the street, and at the same time, there was a very loud soap Li shouting: "On the order of the prince of the mansion, arrest Zhu Dadian, the smuggler who colluded with the thief Shouhe Yilong, the idler, the idler avoided, the idler avoided!" ”

It is said that there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, Li Xin had previously offered a reward, and anyone who found the whereabouts of Zhu Dadian would be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver, even under the heavy protection of the proud soldiers, these soap subordinates of Fengyang Mansion also broke in with courage, and the only bold one was the Fengyang Prefect's flag. Such a nondescript group of people rushed in, and the pro-soldiers and horses under the command of the Huai'an General Soldier were naturally not angry, but seeing that the master of his own general army turned it as if he was nothing, and did not react, he was not good at doing it on the street, and he actually watched the soap subordinates drag this dignified feudal official off the horse.

I caught this person first. The man said another sentence, I caught it first. A dry soap was pulled around, and they all claimed that Zhu Dadian was caught by him first, after all, this is a reward worth 10,000 taels of silver, and it is a huge amount of money that cannot be earned in dozens of lifetimes.

Under the pull of left and right, Zhu Dadian was unbearable, and scolded angrily: "The old man is the governor of Fengyang, and he is rude!" ”

However, he soon found in despair that these soaps, who had been obedient like little sheep when they saw him, had turned a deaf ear to his warnings, and a kind of humiliation and anger that had never been seen before suddenly filled his chest.

This scene fell into the eyes of Sun Zhijie, the chief soldier of Huai'an, and it was a different feeling. He didn't know if this act was intentional, so it was inconvenient to interfere more, so he just ordered his own soldiers not to move, and just stood aside to watch the excitement.
