Chapter 527 What have you done, why do you call yourself a hero
On the earthen platform built by the bandits outside the north gate of Kaifeng City when they attacked the city, Zhang Cheng was wearing a bright armor and a wool cloak with a bright red and white border, looking at the smoky battlefield with high spirits.

"Commander, the thieves outside the north gate have been wiped out, the leader of the thieves, Liu Tichun and Wakanzi, have been captured alive, and the rest of the thieves and thousands of hungry people are being held separately.

However, the thieves from the east of the city attacked several times, seeing that they could not save the thieves from the north of the city, they retreated directly to the south of the city, and formed a group with the thieves there, and there were nearly ten thousand people. "Zhang Guodong came to Zhang Cheng and reported softly.

Zhang Cheng still looked at the outer battlefield. He was only guarded by Zhang Chengfang and Zhang Jintai. There were more than 15 boy scout soldiers on the outer edge. The youngest is 17 years old, and the oldest Zhang Chengfang is [-] years old.

He seemed to be in deep thought, and after a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Hmph, the thief is very cunning. If he escapes, leave him alone, and leave Chen Dakuan's troops stationed in the camp of the thief Kowaguanzi. In addition, your central army Strengthen the sentry on the east side of the city, and don't let the bandits come back again.

Order Jin Yong's subordinates to step up the screening of the surrendered bandits. The old bandits inside must be selected and detained separately from the newly recruited bandits, and the hungry people must be properly resettled.

I will ask Su Shoudao to enter the city and ask the city to send people out to open porridge sheds to appease these bandits and hungry people. "

Zhang Cheng then said to Zhang Guangda: "Your heavy cavalry rushed to the crockpot bandits, and you are already exhausted. Take a rest in the north of the city to recover your strength first, and order Qingqi to rush to the northwest chariot formation and stay on standby."

He turned to Lin Fangping and continued: "Fangping, take Su Laohu and Mo Zhigen from the east to the south of the city to see what the bandits are doing there. Remember, if the bandits go out to fight, you will have to fight with them. There will be no army in the future." Relying on it, you must not engage in close combat with thieves."

The three of them promised to fight loudly, turned around and were about to leave.

Zhang Cheng suddenly called Zhang Guodong to a stop, and said softly to him: "Guodong, the good report only says that the thief's head was caught, and the crockpot is the only thing. As for Liu Tichun, you leave it to Cheng Fang, and bring it here to me."

Zhang Guodong was taken aback when he heard the words, but immediately responded loudly: "Here!"

Without hesitation, he turned around and led Zhang Chengfang and several boy scout knights to gallop away.

…………

Zhang Cheng watched the generals leave, and then said to Zhang Jintai: "Jintai, you lead two scout soldiers to escort Lord Su Zhuang into the city, please all the adults in the city quickly set up porridge sheds in the city, so as to keep the captured bandits and hungry people safe." .

As for the results of the battle, let's just say that the thief Kowa Jar was captured, and the other cases are still being counted. "

"Here!"

After Zhang Jintai agreed to take the order, he called two young soldiers to ride away.

After a while, Zhang Chengfang escorted Liu Tichun to the earth platform. Liu Tichun's head was covered with a white cloth, tied with five flowers and pressed to the ground. Then he took out the cork from his mouth and shouted: "If you want to kill, you must cut it into pieces." , Our old man will never frown, and you should not come to persuade us to surrender, our old man will stand upright until death, and will never surrender to you dog officials."

Zhang Chengfang took a steel knife from the boy soldier next to him, and hit him twice with the handle of the knife with his backhand, causing blood to flow from his head and stars staring at his eyes.

Zhang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Cheng Fang, don't be reckless."

He stopped Zhang Chengfang and said to the left and right: "Come on, take off the hood for General Liu and untie it."

Zhang Chengfang took a step forward holding the steel knife, and said anxiously: "Father, this guy is very strong..."

Zhang Cheng waved his hand to stop him from continuing, and said, "This commander is not made of mud, and you are not made of clods of dirt. Many people are afraid that he will turn against the sky. Let go!"

Over there Zhang Chengfang waved his hand, and immediately four scouts came up to guard Zhang Cheng's left and right sides. Then they took off Liu Tichun's headgear, and another scout came up to untie him.

Suddenly, Liu Tichun only felt that it was very dazzling. Although it was cloudy and the light was not strong, he had been wearing a hood since he was captured, and he took it off suddenly, and still felt uncomfortable.

He blinked hard a few times before he gradually adapted to the light outside. He saw a handsome young general standing in front of him, tall and straight, with bright armor, like a god. It was a few minutes shorter.

Looking at the sergeants around the young general, they all looked childish, they looked young, but they were full of heroism, just like those child soldiers under King Chuang's command.

At this moment, Zhang Cheng said to him with a sneer, "Hmph. Isn't it easy to die? One click and it's done."

Liu Tichun was no longer as rude as before. He stood up with his hands on the ground, only to realize that the handsome young general was almost a head taller than himself.

Looking up at Zhang Cheng, Liu Tichun said: "If you dare to ask the general's name, I will make Er Hu understand."

Zhang Cheng didn't speak, just stared at him, but Zhang Chengfang on the side said in a deep voice: "The person in front of you is the deputy general of Xuanzhen, the chief of Henan aid and suppression general Dingyuan, who once fought against the slave chief Yuetuo. Zhang Cheng is."

Liu Tichun stared at Zhang Cheng with piercing eyes, with mixed emotions in his heart.

He knew the name Zhang Cheng, but he had never met him, but he never expected to meet Zhang Cheng here, in this way.

Some time ago, in Luoyang, I heard that Zhang Cheng from Xuanzhen came to help Henan, but the army failed to attract the attention of the Chuangjun. It was not until Yanshi was taken back by Zhang Cheng that they learned about Zhang Cheng from Song Xiance, Li Yan and others. Sincere deeds.

However, for more than ten years in the Ming Dynasty, and even the gang of giant bandits who once ravaged more than ten provinces of the Ming Dynasty, they didn't pay attention to Zhang Cheng at all. Who would have thought that the news of the present world would come so quickly?
Liu Tichun seemed to be in disbelief, and said suspiciously: "You are Zhang Cheng? You are so young!"

"Hahaha!"

Hearing this, Zhang Cheng couldn't help laughing out loud, and then said, "What? Is this handsome old man with a beard?"

Liu Tichun was at a loss for words for a while, but he didn't know how to answer. He was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Since it fell into your hands today, it's not an injustice. I just blame my carelessness. I never thought that I would be stolen by you."

He then said boldly: "Come on, give me a good time, I will still be a good man 30 years later!"

"hero?"

Zhang Cheng first asked a question, and then said with a smile: "What have you done, Liu Tichun, why do you call yourself a hero? Since you became a thief, you have traveled across several provinces and harmed countless lives. How dare you call yourself a hero!"

The more he talked, the more angry he continued, "Telling about today's battle, you actually drove unarmed people to fill trenches and dig city bricks, is this what a hero should do?
What you have done is to eradicate the fortress every time you go to the city, and plunder all the food and grain in the city. Have you thought about how the people in the city will live in the future? "
