Chapter 209
Hearing the senior official in front of him asking about the rogues, the old man was very embarrassed:
"Rogues? The grassroots really don't know what rogues are. There was indeed a fight outside last night. The shouts and killings were so loud that the old man was scared to death. How dare he go out to check."

What the old man said was not unreasonable. There was a war outside, and ordinary people were afraid that it would be too late to escape, so how could they go out to check.

"Fuck off"

"Boom..."

"Come here, grab two young men for this general, and if you encounter resistance, you will be executed on the spot."

"Yes"

Seeing that the old man didn't look like a liar, Zhang Yong raised his leg and kicked the old man to the ground.

The old man spat out a mouthful of blood after he fell, and couldn't get up at that time.

But Zhang Yong didn't even look at him. In Zhang Yong's eyes, these ordinary people were worse than dogs.

Then ordered the soldiers to continue arresting people, his ugly performance was no different from bandits and bandits.

If it weren't for the Daming General's armor he was wearing, ordinary people would not believe that this was the Daming Zezhou garrison.

Several soldiers brought the two young men to Zhang Yong.

Two ordinary people who had never seen a high official fell to their knees immediately after seeing Zhang Yong's appearance.

"The grass people kowtow to the general..."

Zhang Yong didn't let them get up, and the two young men didn't dare to get up, kneeling on the ground and still trembling.

Zhang Yong looked at them coldly and asked:

"Where did those rogues go last night, and how many of them are there in the crowd? You'd better answer honestly, otherwise the consequences will be serious."

These two young people didn't participate in anything last night. They really didn't know what was going on, so they hurriedly answered tremblingly:

"Reporting to the general, we really know where the rogues are. I heard that they all went up the mountain. The grassroots really don't know who they are fighting with. Please check it out!"

"Damn it, you're obviously lying to General Ben, someone dragged it down and hacked it up."

Seeing that the two common people were not telling the truth, Zhang Yong was furious, and immediately ordered his subordinates to behead the two common people.

"The dog officer is too bullying. He just kills people casually like this. He doesn't treat us as human beings at all. He fights with them..."

The anger and resentment that had been squeezed in the hearts of the people for many years finally broke out at this moment.

They flocked to Zhang Yong one after another. Although they had no weapons in their hands, there were a large number of them.

Seeing that the people were disobedient and wanted to rebel, Wang Qiang smiled coldly:
"A group of untouchables who don't want to die, since you don't want to live, I will let you go today, and General Zhang will kill them all."

Although there are more than 2000 people, there are also thousands of officers and soldiers. Don't look at them fighting bandits and captives.

But facing twice as many unarmed ordinary people, they are still sure of victory.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, some officers and soldiers treated the common people like rogues, and Zuo Liangyu's Gaojie army was like this.

With his fortune cut off, Zhang Yong had long wanted to kill someone, but he still had some concerns.

The magistrate's order was in line with his wishes, and he stretched out his hand and pulled out the sword at his waist to deliver the order:
"Come here, order the archers to prepare. If these untouchables take a step forward, shoot them all on the spot."

"The two adults can't, they are unarmed ordinary people, today is mighty, we can't make mistakes."

Seeing that the people are about to suffer, Zhu Youjian in the crowd has not issued orders, and he wants to see if the system inspection is working.

If Wang Feng does not speak now, his loyalty and sense of justice will be meaningless, and he will be useless.

Sure enough, Wang Feng did not disappoint Zhu Youjian. At the critical moment, he jumped off his horse and stood in front of the people.

Seeing that Wang Qiang ignored him, Wang Feng cupped his hands to Wang Qiang and Zhang Yong again and said:
"My lords, in broad daylight, we must never attack unarmed civilians. If the imperial court finds out, it will be a small matter to lose the official position, and the whole family may suffer along with it."

"You... What do you mean, Mr. Wang?"

Zhang Yong glared at Wang Feng fiercely, without Wang Qiang's order, he really didn't dare to attack Wang Feng.

But Wang Qiang said coldly:
"Wang Feng, you finally showed your fox tail. This residence thought you could keep pretending! This residence has the support of the governor, and you can shoot and kill together with you. Do you believe that you are still a high-ranking official?"

Facing such a shameless Zezhou magistrate, Wang Feng trembled with anger. He pointed at Wang Qiang:
"Shameless, today's sage, sage, he will avenge us, there is a kind of you to kill me together..."

After finishing speaking, Wang Feng turned back and shouted to the archers:

"Brothers, you are officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, not Wang Qiang's private soldiers. Don't follow him to act mischievously. You should be very clear about what kind of person the Holy Majesty is today. The bandits and captives are all fleeing. If you do this, the nine clans will be wiped out. Think about it. Have you ever met your relatives?"

Seeing Wang Feng disturbing his army's morale so much, Wang Qiang's face was livid with anger, and he shouted to Zhang Yong angrily:

"Zhang Yong, we are already grasshoppers on the same rope, there is no turning back, kill..."

Zhang Yong knew that Wang Qiang had a backer, so he listened to him very much, and immediately sent an order:

"Shoot the arrows, no one can be left behind!"

But after those archers drew their bows and set their arrows, they were a little moved by what Wang Feng said, and they didn't release their arrows for a long time.

Zhang Yong and Wang Qiang have been withholding their military pay to support private soldiers. They were upset at first, but they didn't dare to resist.

Although Wang Feng is not their boss and can't control them, he is a good official.

Another main reason is the imperial court. Everyone knows the prestige and decisiveness of the current emperor.

He easily fought back and killed hundreds of thousands of rogue bandits who besieged the city, and now the troops are divided into three groups to encircle and suppress the Eastern captives.

They shot and killed Zezhou Tongzhi and more than 2000 innocent people today. If the court finds out, the emperor will definitely wipe out the nine clans.

"Fire the arrows, you idiots, those who disobey the order will be killed without mercy!"

Seeing that the archers did not dare to shoot arrows, Zhang Yong swung his sword to knock down an archer and gave another order.

Suddenly someone in the crowd spoke loudly, and the sound could be heard far away.

"Everyone, don't listen to their orders. You are all family members. You should learn from Master Wang Feng."

Zhang Yong raised his eyes and saw a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes walking out of the crowd, and it was he who spoke just now.

Although this person was not tall, he carried a powerful aura that made both Zhang Yong and Wang Qiang feel chills down their backs.

There are more than a dozen people following this person, all of whom have firearms in their hands.

Seeing them and the firearms in their hands, Zhang Yong and Wang Qiang immediately remembered the scout's report.

The two of them gave orders to their own soldiers almost in unison:

"Guardian, kill them quickly!"

"Yes"

Both of them have more than 300 personal guards. They are all private soldiers who deducted the military pay from the two of them, and they absolutely obey orders.

Hearing the master's order, more than 300 people immediately drew their weapons and rushed to Zhu Youjian.

"Bang bang bang..."

The twenty guards standing beside Zhu Youjian immediately picked up their rifles and pulled the triggers one after another.

As soon as Wang Qiang and Zhang Yong's personal soldiers rushed up, 20 people were knocked down by the royal guards in an instant.

Ah Qing also drew out her two guns and fired in bursts, killing six more people.

But these people are really not afraid of death for the sake of their master, and they still rush to Zhu Youjian and others desperately.

Qinglong looked at the dazed archers, rolled his eyes, and shouted loudly:

"Ming soldiers, listen up. I am Qinglong, the commander of Jinyiwei. I am currently inspecting Zezhou as an imperial envoy. As long as you make up for your mistakes, this imperial envoy forgives your innocence..."
