Chapter 191 Weighing In less than an hour, the battle of Gaoyou was over.
Zhao Jun used his powerful general Fu Youde and 150 cavalry, with the cooperation of Zhang Shicheng, Li Boxheng, Qu Tong and other "rebels" and Yanding leaders, to deceive the east gate of Gaoyou City and kill the Meng Yuan deputy in the street.
One person per ten thousand households, five persons per thousand households, and more than forty officers and soldiers from each hundred households.
They captured alive Qi Zhedu, Zuocheng of Henan Jiangbei Province, Li Qi, the prefect, and nearly a hundred officials of all sizes.
They also forced more than 20,000 "rebel soldiers" and Yanding temporarily recruited by the Gaoyou government to defect on the spot, turned around, and together with Zhang Shicheng and others, killed more than 7,000 formal officers and soldiers with corpses scattered all over the ground.
Gaoyou City, like Huai'an, is an important cargo distribution hub on the canal.
Therefore, there are many wealthy families in the city, and the people's lives are relatively prosperous.
Most of the "volunteers" recruited by the government and the forced saltmen belonged to the lower class of this era.
In addition to being scolded by officials at all levels, they were also criticized by "city people" Rolling eyes.
Therefore, after killing the formal officers and soldiers, he immediately pointed the blade at the people in the city.
When he saw a decent house, he couldn't help but rush in and rob it.
When he saw a slightly attractive woman, he would immediately tie a rope to her shoulders, or push her down on the spot, and then do that beastly thing.
When Fu Youde saw this, he had no choice but to send cavalry over to cut down the bandits who were leading the harm to the people as a warning to others.
He also called brothers Zhang Shicheng, Li Boxheng, Qu Tong, Pan Yuanming and others to his side, scolded them, and ordered them to restrain their direct relatives and not to mess around in the city.
The Zhang brothers, Qu Tong, Pan Yuanming and others did not dare to talk back to him in person.
They turned around, but they all felt that Fu Youde was making a fuss, and they all whispered: "What are you pretending to be?
Everyone put their heads on their belts to rebel.
Isn't it just for fun?
This is not allowed, and that is not allowed.
Why should we follow him and continue to work under Qi Zhedu?
It's not the same."
"He ate huge chunks of meat and didn't even let us drink the soup.
Even the emperor can't treat meritorious officials like this."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Shicheng was upset when he heard this.
He raised his eyes and scolded in a low voice, "Be careful of the trouble coming from your mouth.
Besides, why bully an ordinary citizen?
Why do you want to play?
Let's do the big thing ourselves in the future."
"Well" everyone thought for a while and nodded vigorously, "Today we will let Fu regain his prestige.
One day, we men will also become soldiers alone."
"Keep your voice down, no one will treat you like a mute."
This time, it was Li Boxheng who stopped everyone.
He looked around and asked in a whisper: "Jiu Si, what you told everyone this morning, can it come true?
Then Fu Youde is just a general under Zhao Jun, how could he do it to Zhu Bayi?"
"Master" "You are looking down on Butcher Zhu."
Zhang Shicheng also looked around secretly and responded in a low voice, "Think about it, no matter who Fu Youde's subordinate is, he is opening up territory for Zhu Ba11 right now.
So no matter what promise Fu Youde makes, he Zhu Ba Eleven has to be carried behind.
Besides, after this battle, our brothers' names will definitely spread all over the country.
If Zhu Bayi refuses to fulfill Fu Youde's promise, what kind of reputation will he lose?
Who among the heroes in the world will dare to do so.
Come and join him because of his fame.”
"That's true."
Li Boxheng was not a very independent person to begin with.
Hearing Zhang Shicheng's affirmation, the uneasy feeling in his heart eased a little, "That Zhu Tu, Manager Zhu, has always been known for his benevolence and righteousness.

To Hu Dahai, Geng Zaicheng, There are also a few Mongols who surrendered to him, but they are all pretty good."
"Whether Zuo Yuan succeeds or not, we are all under his elbows."
Zhang Shicheng thought for a while, raised his voice a few points, and said solemnly, "Everyone, please cheer up and follow Fu Youde's words to restrain the brothers.
Don't let it go.
When Manager Zhu met us for the first time, he couldn't leave a good impression.
He told those brothers who wanted to make a fortune to be patient for a while and said that I owed them today and would do more when I had the opportunity in the future. compensate" "Yes, big brother" "Brother, we all listen to you" Everyone thought for a while and raised their hands.
Zhang Shicheng nodded and added with a smile, "If you want to be a hero, you have to look like a hero.
We can't think about making contributions while focusing on the few bones left by others.
Go up.
Look at Zhu Tu, Manager Zhu, because he has such a good reputation that even the Mongols in the city are not willing to be enemies with him.
If we want to achieve something successful, we must learn from others."
"Yes."
Everyone listened to his grand words and bowed their hands again.
Zhang Shicheng smiled again and waved vigorously, "Go quickly.
After gathering the team, pull them all out of the city, so as not to eat nothing and be suspected.
Let's stay outside the city.
Set up camp and wait for Manager Zhu to arrive."
"After all, he is the eldest brother of 1994, and he is very considerate."
"Brother, we listen to you.
When we meet Zhao Erzi, Feng Zhankui and the others later, we will also tell them this truth and let them listen to you."
"Lou Suo" Zhang Shicheng neither stopped nor objected.
He walked slowly towards the east gate of Gaoyou City with his back on his back.
He helped to capture this city.
He did not waste a single soldier from General Zhu, nor did he waste a tael of gunpowder.
Although part of the credit must be given to Fu Youde, the latter only had more than a hundred cavalry under his command.
As long as Butcher Zhu was not blind, he would definitely understand who had the greatest credit.
If Butcher Zhu asked him about his future plans, in addition to the conditions agreed with Fu Youde, he would tell him clearly that he was willing to shelter under the wings of Manager Zhu forever and be driven by him.
Mountains of swords and seas of fire will never sway.
Well, well, you can also promise to be more detailed and pay the money and food on time every year without any delay.
Anyway, those things are ownerless now.
Even if they are given 30% to Zhu, he will still lose a lot of money.
Zhengzhi was planning happily, when suddenly there was a crisp sound of horse hooves behind him.
Turning around suddenly, he saw Fu Youde galloping towards the door with two guards and a horse with an empty saddle.
"Where are you going, General Fu?"
Zhang Shicheng was slightly startled, and quickly stepped aside to get out of the way, while cautiously asking.
"Go to greet Mr.
Zhu and the others.
There is a horse that belongs to you.
You can go too."
Fu Youde gently took the reins and responded crisply, "Mr.
Zhu already knows that we have taken down Gaoyou City.
He and Mr.
Mao are leading the way."
We are rushing here with the soldiers.
We have nothing to do in the city, so why not go out to greet them together?"

"This, this city.
Once the general leaves, there will be no one in charge in the city."
Zhang Shicheng was stunned again and hesitated to dissuade him, "What if Qi Zhedu's remnants of the party cause trouble?"
"Aren't Li Boxheng and the others here?
My cavalry are also here."
Fu Youde smiled and explained very confidently, "If anyone wants to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, they must take Qi Zhedu and Li Qi from the prison of the government office.
I want to snatch people out from my brothers.
Haha, they must have the ability to go.
Don't delay.
I met the chief manager earlier, so your matter can be solved earlier."
"Then, the common people are more respectful than obedient."
Zhang Shicheng raised his hand, quickly came to the war horse prepared for him, and flew up.
The four mounts galloped along the pipeline at lightning speed, covering more than twenty miles in the blink of an eye.
From a distance, I saw a large group of armored cavalry approaching.
The land and water network of the Huaihe River is crisscrossed, and the climate is humid, making it extremely unsuitable for war horses to survive.
Therefore, it is rare for people to see large-scale cavalry.
Even if they are seen, most of them are riding relatively short Mongolian horses, which do not look very powerful.
However, today, the cavalrymen coming from the opposite side were all sitting on the backs of tall and powerful horses, covered with fine steel plate armor all over their bodies.
When the setting sun shines from a distance, it looks like a golden torrent.
Any obstacle standing in front of it will be smashed to pieces.
"Here" Zhang Shicheng immediately took a breath of air, feeling awe-inspiring in his heart.
Fu Youde turned around with a smile and said loudly, "Look, I said the chief steward will be back soon.
Opposite are the two stewards and their guards.
Please wait here with my soldiers for a while.
I went to meet the two managers first, and then I introduced you to them."
"How dare the common people disobey orders?"
Zhang Shicheng raised his hands hard again, and at the same time straightened his body on the saddle.
One Thousand Armored Cavalry Zhu Tutu actually had a thousand armored cavalry under his command.
Even if half of them belonged to Mao Gui, he had at least 500 armored cavalry left.
Sending these five hundred cavalry across the river, Suzhou and Hangzhou can almost travel on equal footing.
How can he use others to pretend to be powerful under his banner?
Zhang Jiu Shi, Zhang Jiu Shi, today's abacus is a bit crooked.
I want to do business with him, but I haven’t even figured out the business’s capital.
How can I still make less money?
Why not just join him honestly?
With today’s achievements, I will inevitably become a prince in the future.
But there was a wildfire deep in his chest, burning his heart.
Strong, what's the matter with people surnamed Zhu being strong now?
Yuan Shu was strong back then, but in the end he died at the hands of Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others.
If a man doesn't take advantage of the troubled times to fight for himself, what can he do by following others?
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
With Zhu Tutu's momentum, it's only wonder that the Meng Yuan court didn't regard him as a thorn in its side.
If the court attacks with overwhelming force, everyone who works under him will definitely fight to the death.
Swords and arrows are always blind on the battlefield, even if Zhu Butcher is lucky enough to survive this challenge.
Who among the generals under his command can guarantee that they can accompany him all the way to the end?

Come on, come on, let's try to use his strength to find our own way out.
At worst, we can just keep using his banner and always leave a way out for ourselves
