Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

After saying that, Zhang Yi turned and left, taking all his soldiers with him.

Seeing that Zhang Yi had left, Yang Kenan also let go of Cao Shaolin.

Cao Shaolin chuckled and said, "I'll play a game with you, just for one day. I want you to release me yourself."

Seeing Cao Shaolin's arrogance, Yang Kenan coldly said, "Lock him up."

Riots broke out again in the crowd.

'He's Cao Ying's son, how can we afford to offend him?'

'What should I do?'

'Release Young Marshal Cao quickly!'

As he spoke, everyone gathered around.

Yang Kenan's face was extremely grim.

Boss Liu said, "Ke Nan, in my opinion, we should release Cao Shaolin."

He's Cao Ying's son, and he's a young marshal.

We kowtow to him, admit our mistake, or..."

Yang Kenan took a deep breath and insisted, "No, he's a murderer, he should be executed tomorrow morning."

Boss Liu took a deep breath and said, "Ke Nan, since you say so, I won't follow you to my grave."

After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling his men to carry him away and pack up to leave.

Shen Hao discovered that this Boss Liu was a smart man; a wise man knows when to yield.

No wonder they're so rich; they're much better off than honest people.

Yang Kenan looked at the pale-faced onlookers, his heart pounding with fear.

He then reassured everyone, "Don't worry, I will notify the Allied forces as soon as possible so they can come to our aid."

Upon seeing this, Shen Hao smiled. This Yang Kenan was indeed upright and incorruptible, unafraid of powerful figures.

They're also good at making grand promises.

Damn it, is your allied army yours to invite?

If someone really had that much influence, they wouldn't be a lowly local constable.

Do not overestimate your own capabilities.

This is Shen Hao's impression of Yang Kenan.

It would be better to just kill Cao Shaolin and everyone run away quickly.

"Alright, everyone, you can leave now."

Everyone looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

Li Tieniu, who was standing to the side, was also dumbfounded. He had originally planned to give Shen Hao a hard time, but this happened instead.

Bai Ling, standing to the side, looked at Cao Shaolin, who was being held captive yet still looked arrogant, and finally swallowed the hatred in her heart.

For the sake of those who are alive, we must endure it.

The person you hate most is right next to you, but you can't bring yourself to kill them.

Killing him would provoke Cao Ying's furious revenge.

Bai Ling was afraid of implicating her cousin, and even more afraid of implicating Shen Hao.

Tears welled up in my eyes, but I could only swallow them back.

After the play ended, Shen Hao took Bai Ling's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go too. If we don't leave now, we'll really be buried with them."

Of course, Shen Hao's loud voice was also a reminder to everyone.

The smart ones don't need to be taught, and the stupid ones can't be taught.

Li Tieniu said defiantly, "You coward, didn't you see that Commander Yang said to invite the Allied Army? Why are you running away?"

Our provincial military governor, Hu, is a member of the Tongmenghui (Revolutionary Alliance).

Shen Hao laughed and said, "You're right, then I won't keep you company."

90. Even Commander Cao wouldn't dare to provoke him.

Yang Kenan's upholding of justice is a cause for great satisfaction.

But the consequences were dire: offending Cao Ying meant the entire city would perish.

Shen Hao greatly admired Yang Kenan's courage in facing certain death without hesitation.

However, despite my admiration, Shen Hao is definitely not that kind of person.

Yang Kenan is now in a difficult situation. He probably knows that whether Cao Shaolin is released or not, the other side will not let the people of Pucheng go.

Cao Shaolin, that beast, brought tragedy to Pucheng the moment he stepped into the city.

To put it bluntly, regardless of whether Yang Kenan releases the people or not, he will indiscriminately kill innocent people because the other party is simply a beast.

Pulled along by Shen Hao, Bai Ling's expression was complicated.

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he stopped speaking.

Just as Shen Hao was about to ride away, a sudden downpour began, forcing him to stay another day.

Upon entering the guest room, Bai Ling appeared dazed.

Li Tieniu, seeing Shen Hao, said with displeasure, "Weren't you leaving? Why are you back?"

Shen Hao said, "I was going to leave, but unfortunately the weather turned bad. It suddenly started raining heavily, as if it wouldn't let me go and wanted me to continue watching the show."

Li Tieniu snorted and said, "Want to watch a beheading show?"

Shen Hao shook his head and said, "That's definitely not interesting. Next, all the gentry in your Pucheng will unite to force Yang Kenan to release the people."

At the same time, all the people, including you, will beg for their release.

Li Tieniu stubbornly insisted, "I believe Commander Yang."

Shen Hao sneered, "Trust Commander Yang? Don't you know how your cousin fled and how you took in refugees?"

Next, if your regimental commander Yang 167 really kills Cao Shaolin, your entire Pucheng will be slaughtered.

Including you, today Colonel Zhang Yi did have a little conscience and gave you a day to live.

Otherwise I could have killed you all just now.

Upon hearing this, Li Tieniu's face gradually turned pale. He was stupid, but he wasn't a killer.

At this moment, his heart wavered, and in the face of death, his so-called justice began to tilt.

Li Tieniu said, "So now if we release that young marshal, will he let us go?"

At worst, we'll kneel down and kowtow to him to admit our mistake.

Shen Hao laughed dismissively.

Even if you release him now, he won't come out.

Do you think kneeling down and begging him will work?

All that awaits you is slaughter.

Cao Shaolin went through all that trouble just to get them to release him?

He's just messing with you guys on purpose.

Cao Ying commands tens of thousands of troops; just imagine the consequences of offending him.

These words made Li Tieniu turn pale and panic for a moment; he was terrified of dying.

Bai Ling's face was as pale as paper.

"Brother Hao, what should we do? Should we leave and take those kids to Qing City first? I'm worried something might happen to them."

"Don't worry, I'm here," Shen Hao said with a smile.

When Zhang Yi returned to the military camp, his two subordinates asked, "Colonel Zhang, why didn't you rescue the young marshal earlier?"

"Yes, if anything happens to the young marshal, our heads will be in danger."

The two spoke in unison;

Zhang Yi's face turned cold as he said, "Don't you all know what kind of person the young marshal is? He won't let this go until he's had his fill of playing with him."

If they wanted to start killing, they would have done so already.

Moreover, we aim to rule a city, not destroy it.

They would absolutely not dare to touch the young marshal.

"Come into the city to pick me up first thing tomorrow morning."

"but.."

Zhang Yi roared, "I'm the boss here!"
