About half an hour later, Ding Desun came back and told Hua Ju that the robbed property and food had been found.

"You go and tell General Zhang that he will take Yu Tong to Fangcheng County to execute him and avenge the murdered people." Hua Ju said.

"Yes." Ding Desun responded.

He followed Hua Ju and said, "In addition, you will take some people to escort those less injured people together and let them witness the execution of Yu Tong with their own eyes."

"yes."

Ding Desun found Zhang Qing and conveyed Hua Ju's order to him. Zhang Qing then went to the place where Yu Tong was detained and asked the soldiers to lift him out. Yu Tong thought he wanted to let him go, so he rushed forward.

Zhang Qing thanked.

Zhang Qing didn't explain so much to him. He smiled at him strangely, and then asked the soldiers to take Yu Tong with him.

More than ten minutes later, they arrived at the gate of Fangcheng County. Yu Tong found that the place he came was wrong and asked hurriedly: "General, why did you bring me here?"

"Of course, you use your blood to pay tribute to the people you killed." Zhang Qing said.

Yu Tong immediately shouted when he heard this and said, "You lord have promised me that as long as I tell the whereabouts of the property, he will not kill me. You cannot speak without trust."

Zhang Qing smiled slightly and said, "We lords have indeed promised him not to kill you, but they did not stop us from killing you."

Yu Tong suddenly realized that he had fallen into Hua Juicy's writing trap and shouted heart-wrenchingly: "You actually deceived me, shameless, despicable, let go of me, let go of me..."

Zhang Qing sneered and said, "You have done so many evil things in Fangcheng County and harmed so many people. If you don't kill you, wouldn't it make those people die with their eyes open? Only by using your head to pay tribute to them will they

Reincarnate with peace of mind.”

Yu Tong cursed: "Scammers, you are all a group of scammers. Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you go..."

Zhang Qing was annoyed by his quarrel and said to the soldier: "Clog his mouth."

The soldier grabbed two handfuls of soil from the ground and stuffed them into his mouth. Then he strangled his mouth with a cloth strip. He followed Zhang Qing to take him into the city, and came to the cross street that originally belonged to the middle of the county town.

He knelt on the ground.

At this time, Ding Desun also brought some of the less injured people, including Tailor Wei, and some of the people who were less injured, slowly came, stopping ten meters away from Yu Tong, waiting to see Yu Tong be executed.

Zhang Qing looked at the people present and said, "Dear Fangcheng County fellows, Yu Tong, this evil thief, has harmed the people of Fangcheng County, causing irreparable harm to everyone. Now I am on our orders,

He killed Yu Tong and avenged the dead."

"Thank you, thank you, General," said the people.

Zhang Qing looked at the soldiers escorting Yu Tong. The soldiers untied Yu Tong's hair and pulled his hair hard to stretch his head.

Then, Zhang Qing walked to Yu Tong's left, slowly pulled out the knife and raised it, paused for two or three seconds, and then swung it down hard, Yu Tong's head was chopped off.

"OK!"

The moment Yu Tong's head was cut off, all the people watching were screaming happily.

Then, Zhang Qing took all the people and took Yu Tong's head to the place where the murdered people were buried, and used Yu Tong's head to pay tribute and comfort them.

After the memorial service, Zhang Qing took the people back to the camp and told Hua Ju about the death of Yu Tong.

It was not yet two o'clock in the afternoon.

Lu Junyi, Guan Sheng, Wang Jin, Xue Yuanhui and others arrived with the imperial guards, the incorporation army and the officials sent by the imperial court.

After Hua Jue met everyone, she called the magistrate of Fangcheng appointed by the imperial court to the injured people and introduced him to the situation in Fangcheng County in person.

The magistrate Fangcheng originally thought that as long as Wang Qing's anti-army was driven away, he could manage Fangcheng County normally, but he did not expect that Fangcheng County would be destroyed so seriously. He was very nervous and didn't know what to do next.

"Mr. Hua, the official has never faced such a situation. Please give instructions." said the magistrate of Fangcheng.

The magistrate of Fangcheng is 35 years old and looks polite and elegant. He has a scholarly temperament. He has never dealt with similar things before, so Hua Jue did not blame him and patiently told him how to take one step.

Rebuild Fangcheng County in one step.

After Hua Jue's detailed description, Fang Chengzhi finally understood what to do. He held his hands together and bowed to Hua Jue and said, "Thank you for your teachings, I know what to do."

Hua Ju said: "The reconstruction of Fangcheng County will take some time. During this period, you need to patiently appease the people. They have been deeply harmed by Wang Qing's anti-military army. This is the time when the court needs care.

Don't be too harsh or harsh on them."

The magistrate of Fangcheng County said: "Please rest assured. The emperor will not let down the trust of His Majesty and the Lord. He will definitely rebuild Fangcheng County so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

“So very good.”

Hua Ju said: "The batch of property Yu Tong robs will be used to repair houses for the surviving people, and then the streets and surrounding roads in Fangcheng County will be built so that the people can

The smooth travel point. As for the food, it will be left to the people, so that there will be no need to transport food from outside for at least one year."

"The subordinate official obeys the order." said the magistrate of Fangcheng.

Hua Jue led a large army to stay in Fangcheng County for a total of three days.

During these three days, Hua Ju asked the imperial guards and the soldiers of the recruits to clean up all the burned houses in Fangcheng County, and found trees and built some simple houses near the north gate of the city for the surviving people.

live.

In addition, Hua Ju also formed all the prisoners of the anti-army soldiers, which increased their strength again.

When he was about to leave on the third day, Hua Ju selected a thousand people from the invading soldiers and stayed to protect the people of Fangcheng County until the reconstruction of Fangcheng County was completed.

"Magistrate Hao, I will leave your future affairs to you. I hope you can be a competent magistrate and not let the people down." Hua Ju said to Fangcheng County Magistrate.

The magistrate of Fangcheng County said: "Don't worry, sir, the subordinates will never disappoint you."

"Then we will say goodbye."

Hua Jue rode on the horse and left with a large group of people. The magistrate of Fangcheng and the people watched them go away before returning to Fangcheng County.

One and a half hours later.

At the north gate of Wanzhou, a man came quickly on a fast horse. Under the city gate, he lit up his waist sign to the soldiers on the city wall. The soldiers guarding the city gate immediately opened the city gate and let him in.

A few minutes later, the horse arrived at the government office, and the horse immediately flew off the horse and quickly stepped into the mansion.

This person was a spy sent by Liu Min to inquire about Hua Ju and the others' movements.

Since Liu Min escaped back a few days ago, he was worried that Hua Ju and the others would come to attack Wanzhou soon, so he sent someone to quietly stare at Hua Ju and the others' movements.

"Sir, the Song army has begun to march towards Wanzhou." said the spy.

Liu Min immediately became nervous when he heard the news and asked, "How far are they from us?"

The spy said: "They have a lot of infantry and the marching speed is not very fast. At this time, we should be seventy or eighty miles away. We should not arrive tomorrow."

Liu Min walked back and forth twice, looked at the five generals of Han Su, Ban Ze, Lu Ming, Qin Yan, and Zhao Shun, and said, "There has not been a reply from the King of Chu. If the Song army comes, the city will be

The 30,000 troops of the country won’t last long, what do you think should you do?”

"General, there is no other way to go now. You can only ask for help from the defenders of the surrounding cities and ask them to send troops to support us." Zhao Shun said.

"That's right."

Han Su said: "Now, only by asking for help from nearby states and counties can we protect Wanzhou."

Ban Ze, Lu Ming and Qin Yan also agreed with this approach. Liu Min immediately wrote three documents for help, sent people to Ruzhou, Anchang, Yiyang and other prefectures and counties, asking them to send reinforcements.

Turning around, Hua Jue brought a large group of troops to Wanzhou, and then ordered Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, Wenda, Sun Li, and Liu Yun to lead 30,000 imperial guards to garrison outside the northern city of Wanzhou.

He ordered Wang Jin, Shi Jin, Tan Gao, Lu Fang and Guo Sheng to lead 30,000 imperial troops to guard the Xicheng.

He ordered Guan Sheng, Li Cheng, Li Tianrun, Si Xingfang and Zhang Wei to lead 30,000 imperial troops to station in the south city.

He ordered Sun An, Yang Zhi, Xu Ning, Xu Fang and Wang Yin to lead 30,000 imperial troops to guard the East City.

After surrounding the four cities of Wanzhou, Hua Ju immediately ordered the incorporated surrendered troops to attack Wanzhou from the east, west, south and north at the same time, hoping to take down Wanzhou through a strong attack.

However, the city walls of Wanzhou are solid. In addition, in order to quickly arrive at Yuzhou, Hua Ju brought all cavalry and did not carry wind and thunder cannons, so it was impossible to suppress the defenders on the city walls. In addition, there was no special

The siege equipment caused the incorporated army to attack for three consecutive days, but no one captured it for four days, and more than a thousand people were killed or injured.

In the evening, Hua Ju and the generals gathered together, and Wen Huanzhang said, "Sir, it's not OK to fight like this. You have to find another way."

Hua Ju nodded slightly and said, "I am also considering this issue, but I haven't thought of a good idea yet."

Then he glanced at the generals present and asked, "Is there any good way for everyone?"

Sun An said: "Although we have not captured Wanzhou these days, the army besieged the city. The food in the city should not last long. Perhaps in a few days, they will not have enough food and will surrender."

Hua Ju said: "Although this is a solution, it is too time-consuming. If their reinforcements arrive, it will make our attack more difficult."

Lu Junyi said: "Your sect is right. In such a siege, the most taboo thing is to stalemate. The longer the time is delayed, the more unfavorable it will be for the attacking side. So I agree with you, and you should still take Wanzhou as soon as possible.

Down."

At this point, a Malay newspaper in charge of inquiring about the news: "Master Qi reported to you, an anti-military reinforcement of 20,000 people came from Ruzhou."

"How far is it from us?" Hua Ju asked.

"It's about sixty miles away." Tanma said.

As soon as he finished speaking, two more visiting horses came: "Sir, five thousand people came from Anchang and Yiyang."

Hua Ju was thinking about countermeasures, and Wen Huanzhang said: "Sir, our chance to break through Wanzhou is here."

"What are the clever strategies for military advisors?" Hua Ju asked.

Wen Huanzhang said: "We can send troops to wipe out these three anti-army forces first, and then pretend to be the three anti-army forces and open the city gates, so that we can easily capture Wanzhou City."

Hua Ju nodded in agreement and said, "The military advisor is right."

Then he began to dispatch troops and said, "General Wang, Commander Lin, General Hu Yan, General Han, Shi Jin, you lead 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 recruited troops to wipe out the anti-military reinforcements from Wanzhou.

General Guan, Wenda, Xu Ning, Sun Li, you lead 10,000 cavalry to wipe out the anti-military reinforcements from Anchang.

Sun An, Luan Yanyu, Yang Zhi, Wang Yin, you lead 10,000 cavalry to wipe out the anti-military reinforcements from Yiyang."

"The low-ranking ranks obey the order."
