Chapter 3737
Xu Fang died in battle, and the rebels were shocked.

Fang Tianding cried out in grief, "General Fang!"

He drew out his long sword and shouted to his subordinates, "Avenge General Fang, kill him!"

The dense rebel army immediately rushed to the rebel army in front of them frantically.

Like a fight between trapped beasts, everyone has red eyes and a heart of death.

They don't have weapons or armor, and they only have some swords and guns from the imperial army that they just robbed, as well as some sticks and farm tools looted from the homes of the common people.

The rebels on the opposite side are all well-equipped.

Although there are a large number of these rebels, they do not have any advantages in equipment or physical strength.

The rebels waited for work with ease, and greeted them with army formations.

Quickly separated the unorganized rebels who rushed up.

The shield is in front and the spear is in the back.

The archers shot first, and the shield soldiers and pikemen followed behind.

The battle raged from night to day, laying corpses outside the city.

The blood stained the earth, and the ground outside the southern city wall was dyed a scarlet color.

The rebels took millions of prisoners, and more than 30 died on the battlefield.

The rest of the wounded, those who surrendered, were all controlled by the rebels.

Fang Tianding broke out from the siege of the rebel army with an elite cavalry of thousands of people in the melee.

The rebel army regained control of the four city gates, collected the people's supplies, and moved them to the largest square in the city.

Lin Chong asked people to count the quantity and prepare to return the materials to their original owners.

At this time, the Imperial Army rushed out from the Shenggong Mansion and immediately occupied all parts of the square.

The commander of the imperial army, Wang Fang, found Lin Chong and shouted at him, "Mr. Wu, the privy envoy has an order to seize all the stolen money that the thieves robbed last night, so that it can be returned to the people in the city in the future. Please also leave the state immediately. City, we have taken over here."

Lin Chong's tiger stared at him and said, "Where were you when you were dealing with the rebels last night? Now that the fighting has subsided, you jumped out and even took away such a small amount of supplies. Do you still have any sense of courtesy?"

Wang Fang cursed, "Presumptuous, are we robbing? We are seizing supplies so that they can be returned to the people. You dare to be so rude to this general, and dare to despise the court's laws. Are you not afraid of being punished by the privy envoy?"

"Master Privy Envoy, you have to be reasonable. These supplies belong to the common people, and should be returned to the common people. I don't need you Imperial Army to worry about this matter. We will return all these supplies today."

Lin Chong was not polite to him.

Wang Fangqi pulled out the long knife in his hand, and shouted at Lin Chong, "Lin Chong, do you want to rebel?"

A group of soldiers behind him, pretending to be powerful, all drew out their long knives and quickly surrounded Lin Chong.

Lin Chong looked around at the crowd, raised his gun and cursed, "Okay, killing thieves last night wasn't fun, anyone who dares to do it, just come up together!"

There was a murderous aura on his body, which made all the imperial guards uncontrollably terrified and retreated one after another.

The soldiers who followed Lin Chong also drew their long swords and glared at the imperial guards.

They looked at Lin Chong in amazement, and thought to themselves that two days ago, he was still submissive and aggrieved, why did he suddenly look like a different person now?
Ma Zhiyuan, the magistrate of Qiantang, came up with a group of yamen servants at this time, and hurriedly persuaded them, "You two gentlemen calm down, you are all doing things for the court and the common people, why do you need to fight each other?"

He gave Wang Fang a step, and made Wang Fang put away the knife with a cold snort.

The two parties put away their long knives one after another, but they still stared at each other angrily.

Wang Fang pointed to Lin Chong, and coldly applauded, "Okay, you're kind. I'll report to the Privy Envoy and see how the Privy Envoy handles you!"

He raised his hand and signaled his group to leave.

Ma Zhiyuan sent them away with a smile on his face, and came over and said politely to Lin Chong, "Mr. Wu, why do you have to be as knowledgeable as them? These people rely on the power of privy envoys, they are unscrupulous and domineering. If you offend him, he will definitely not let him go." You've had a good time!"

Lin Chong shouted sullenly, "These dog officials will kill them with their own hands sooner or later."

Ma Zhiyuan swallowed, and said with a dry smile, "Mr. Wu, you've already been tired after killing all night. Leave this place to us, and I promise to return all these supplies to the people."

Lin Chong nodded, handed over the square to him, and asked half of the soldiers to go back to the temporary camp on the city wall to rest.

He didn't worry about the forbidden army, and he didn't worry about these yamen servants, leaving half of the rebels here to greet them.

The people suffered heavy casualties last night, 10,000+ people died in this rebellion.

Crying and howling were everywhere in the city, and some streets were completely burned to ashes, like a purgatory on earth.

The servants beat the gongs and publicized everywhere in the city, "Fathers and folks, the government has helped you quell the rebellion and snatched back the supplies. What have you lost, what is missing, or what has been robbed, immediately go to the square to claim it." .”

The people were numb, looking at them one by one in horror, but no one responded.

They still remember the tragedy that night in the square.

They are afraid of the government, afraid that they will be killed by the government again in the past.

Right now they don't need any supplies, gold and silver, what they lack is just a bite to eat.

The government publicized it on the street for a long time, but no one came to the square to collect supplies.

In the Shenggong Mansion, Wang Fang, the leader of the forbidden army, saw Tong Guan in the main hall, and complained to him depressedly, "Privy envoy, these rebels are too presumptuous. Especially this Lin Chong, how dare he draw his sword at me?" , and don’t pay any attention to the privy envoy. According to the general, these rebels are probably planning to rebel!"

"There is such a thing?"

Wang Fu snorted, "It seems that these rebels still need to be disciplined!"

Li Bangyan said harshly, "They are thieves who will not change their nature. We must not relax a little bit towards them. We must deal with them quickly."

Gao Qiu suggested, "It's simple. Let Song Gongming take responsibility for the mistakes made by the rebels. Let Song Gongming order this Lin Chong to be arrested, beaten, and imprisoned. He won't listen to our words, but he has to do what Qi Guogong says. listen?"

Tong Guan said indifferently, "You don't have to worry, just let them continue to fight for two more days. I have already dispatched a large army, and they are marching towards Qiantang Prefecture. When the army arrives, the rebel army will become a soft-shelled turtle. At that time, what do we want to do? Just deal with them whatever you want. Even if they refuse to accept it, it won’t help.”

The three of Gao Qiu looked at each other and asked in surprise, "Master Privy Envoy, where did we get the army?"

Tong Guan laughed loudly, "This official has already made arrangements to dispatch ten envoys to various places in the south of the Yangtze River in advance. They have already received the transfer order, and they will be here in three days at the latest. After three days, Jiangnan will completely become ours. the world."
