Chapter 229

In Shouzhou City, the battle has come to an end. Groups of defenders were escorted out of the city by the coalition soldiers.

Surrounded by nearly a hundred personal guards, Gao Yihuan entered the city and went straight to Liu Liangzuo's mansion.

A huge plaque in front of the door fell to the ground, Gao Yihuan stepped on it, entered the mansion, and saw dead bodies everywhere in the yard.

When the two armies clashed, death was unavoidable. Although the coalition forces broke through the city very quickly, and the street fighting in the city ended in less than an hour, the civilians and wealthy households in the city still suffered misfortune. The defeated army took advantage of the fire to loot and insult women. Some coalition soldiers, Also took the opportunity to participate.

Gao Yihuan stood in the blood-stained commander's mansion and ordered: "Xian Gang, pass on this general's order, and release the list to calm the people. If there are any looters in the city who take advantage of the chaos, they will all be executed, no matter the enemy or us!"

Jin Xiangang nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Let's do it now!"

Then Gao Yihuan ordered again: "Xinghao, you lead people to raid all the shops of Fan's family in the city, and arrest them all."

"Second brother, I'll go right away!" Gao Xinghao clasped his fists and said.

Gao Yihuan asked again: "In addition, let people go to the cell to take a look, and release the merchants arrested by Liu Liangzuo, as well as our people. You have to comfort me with good words and tell them to follow me, Gao Yihuan, and I, Gao Yihuan, will I will be responsible for them, and whoever dares to touch them, I will naturally stand up for them."

Gao Xinghao's heart is excited, the second brother's words are to cheer up, and he will not leave a brother behind.

At this time, a group of soldiers came out carrying a few boxes, which seemed to be very heavy. They passed by Gao Yihuan, and a small school led by them saluted Gao Yihuan: "General Gao, my general is in the backyard."

Gao Yihuan nodded, and then, surrounded by everyone, came to the backyard. He saw Liu Heizi directing his subordinates to move the belongings in Liu Liangzuo's mansion, and Gao Yihuan didn't even notice when he came.

"Haha~" Seeing this, Gao Yihuan walked over with a smile, "Brother Liu, how are you doing? Do you know how many gains you have made?"

Seeing Gao Yihuan behind him, Liu Heizi said excitedly, "It hasn't been settled yet, but the cash in Liu Liangzuo's mansion alone may be more than 40 taels."

As he said that, Liu Heizi suddenly smiled, stepped forward and grabbed Gao Yihuan, and said mysteriously, "Come on, brother Gao, let me show you something."

Gao Yihuan thought that he had copied some treasure, but when he thought about Liu Liangzuo, a vulgar man, besides gold and silver, what other treasures could he have?
Gao Yihuan followed Liu Heizi suspiciously to a room. Liu Heizi smiled mysteriously and pushed the door open. Gao Yihuan looked inside curiously, first he heard two screams from a woman, and then saw two screams. The beautiful woman curled up in a corner in horror.

"How is it? Brother Gao, this is specially reserved for you by Brother Liu!" Liu Heizi smirked, "Brother must be interesting!"

"Playing the piano!" Gao Yihuan thought it was a baby, but he didn't expect it to be two women.

Liu Heizi obviously wanted to give these two women to Gao Yihuan, he hurriedly said, "Look, they are exactly the same!"

Liu Heizi smirked, "I've found out everything. This is Liu Liangzuo. He bought the land from Yangzhou for 2000 taels. My brother will give it all to you, and I won't compete with you."

Brothels in the Ming Dynasty were very developed, especially in the Jiangnan area, Nanjing and Yangzhou, which can be said to be the best in the world.

Among them, the brothel painting boats in Nanjing mainly cultivate famous prostitutes who are proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, in order to provide spiritual needs for the princes, nobles, officials and gentlemen in Nanjing.

Officials and gentlemen are all scholars, but many of the wives they take are illiterate. There is no common language between husband and wife, and they can't talk together, which gives brothels great opportunities.

The brothels in Yangzhou are another faction. The people here are mainly salt merchants from the Huaihe River and Huaihe River. They don’t need women from brothels who can recite poems and fight against each other, as long as they can serve themselves and their guests well.

"From Yangzhou?" Gao Yihuan took a closer look. The two beautiful women had fair skin and pretty looks. The key point was that they were carved out of the same mold.

"Liu Liangzuo really knows how to play!" Liu Heizi looked inside, sighed, and then said: "Brother Gao, think about it, if you really don't want it, then I'll share it with the brothers."

"Go, go, I don't need it." Gao Yihuan angrily pushed Liu Heizi away and walked back, but after walking a few steps, he stopped again, and after Liu Heizi followed, he said quietly, "Wait a minute, Bring it to my camp."

Liu Heizi smiled knowingly, revealing an expression that had seen through Gao Yihuan a long time ago. He looked around and said in a low voice, "Brother Gao, don't worry, we will send it there at night if no one is there."

They are all hard-working people, Gao Yihuan felt that these two women might be useful to him, so he agreed.

He could tell by Liu Heizi's expression that he was thinking about something unsightly.

Gao Yihuan didn't explain, but he was a little surprised. Looking at Liu Heizi's expression, he knew that Liu Heizi was also a womanizer. He didn't expect to keep two beautiful women for him.

Suddenly a soldier came to report, "General, Captain Zhao captured Liu Liangzuo and brought him here."

"Oh?" After listening to Gao Yihuan, he became interested, "Bring me to the general."

Not long after, Zhao Daxian brought people to the backyard.

"Second brother, Liu Liangzuo, I brought it for you." Zhao Daxian saluted proudly.

Gao Yihuan nodded, walked up to Liu Liangzuo, and saw that he was shot in the thigh and arm, a large piece of blood was stained, and his big face turned pale.

"Liu Liangzuo, did you think of today when you broke your business and copied my shop?" Gao Yihuan sneered.

After all, Liu Liangzuo is also a figure who has been fighting for many years, and he will not fall if he dies. Besides, the army has been defeated and his son has been shot. He glared at Gao Yihuan viciously.

"Gao thief, don't be crazy, you have the guts~" Liu Liangzuo stared at Gao Yihuan, and said viciously, suddenly a figure stepped forward, lifted his chin with one hand, and slapped him hard on the face, interrupted him.

Liu Heihei stepped forward, slapping his bow left and right, slapping his palm like a cattail fan four or five times, which forced Liu Liangzuo's pale face to become red and swollen, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, before spitting, stopped and scolded: "I'm a thief of your mother!" , How did you talk to my brother Gao!"

"Brother Liu, don't do this, let him say a few last words, and you won't lose a piece of meat." Gao Yi laughed and pulled Liu Heizi away, stared at Liu Liangzuo, and said with a sneer, "You keep talking, what's wrong with you?"

No matter how you say it, Liu Liangzuo is also a general, a second-rank military officer of the imperial court. Whenever he is slapped, he is slapped a few times in a row, and the blood foam is all blown out.

In an instant, Liu Liangzuo was so angry that his lungs would explode, but he had no choice but to cause a little harm to the person in front of him.

This sense of powerlessness and humiliation in his heart drove Liu Liangzuo into madness. With red eyes, he struggled and rushed towards Gao Yihuan, "Gao thief, I will kill you, kill you~ I will not let you go even if I am a ghost~"

Gao Yihuan saw that Liu Liangzuo was going crazy, and he had no interest in continuing, "You bastard, you cut off my money, and even colluded with the Tartars, you can die if you don't want to. I will kill your family, and send them to accompany you." You go to the underworld to be a ghost."

After Gao Yihuan finished speaking, he immediately ordered: "Daxian, kill him and hang his head on the city of Shouzhou, so that the world will know my reputation."

Upon hearing the order, Zhao Daxian immediately pulled the knife at his waist, tried the blade, then grabbed Liu Liangzuo's clothes by the nape of his neck, and dragged him out of the courtyard.

At this moment, a soldier ran in suddenly. After seeing Gao Yihuan, he rushed over and handed a letter to Gao Yihuan, "General, the order of Guanzhong."

Gao Yihuan was slightly taken aback, and hurriedly reached out to take it, but at this moment, there were bursts of miserable screams from outside the staff, and after a while, Zhao Daxian came in with a knife in one hand and a head in the other, and said easily: "Two Brother, I cut it a few times, and finally cut it off."
