Chapter 34 The Angry Yu Wan
After the Eastern Army captured Anqing, Huang Degong killed all the disabled prisoners, and then escorted the healthy ones to Nanjing by water.
Immediately afterwards, in order to boost morale, Huang Degong instigated his subordinates to burn, kill and plunder for three days. There were thousands of civilians who were slaughtered, and countless women who were insulted were innumerable.
Although An Qing had fallen into his hands, Xie Liang led the remnants of troops to defend Huoshan, which was still like a thorn on his back for Huang Degong. He would not dare to attack Hanjing without pulling it out.
So he sent troops to defend all the passages of Huoshan and organized a large army to attack in batches.
As for Zheng Yixue, it became Murong Bowen's personal product, who planned to hold a wedding in three days, with Deputy General Man as the witness.

Yu Wan and Xu Hu traveled day and night, and arrived in Xinyang, Henan three days later.
It’s just a vast crowd, where can I find the fourth son of the emperor?
In the tea shed on the official road in Luoshan County, Xinyang Prefecture, Henan Province, Yu Wan and the other were discussing with a frown.
"Hu Zi, where do you think Zhu Cizhao is?"
Yu Wan knelt peanuts and chewed rice wine, and asked at the deserted mountain road.
"I don't know where he is. What I know is that even if you carry this bag of things, even the horse will be exhausted."
Xu Huchou raised the burden brought by Ti Yu Wan in great pain, and his expression looked very much like a resentful woman in the deep boudoir.
"Don't cry for the first time, you will thank it one day."
The two of them talked about it for half an hour, but seeing that there was no good solution, they had to pay the bill and leave.
At this moment, there were whips and whistles coming from the mountain road.
"If you don't die, you'll cut you alive if you pretend to die!"
After saying that, there was another crisp sound of "papa".
Looking around, dozens of Dashun soldiers were escorting more than a hundred workers on the official road. An elderly man with white hair staggered and fell beside him and was whipped fiercely by three officers and soldiers.
"It's a sin. These murderous people have requisitioned migrant workers again, and they won't even let such a weak old man go!"
The boss lady brought the pumpkin pie up. When she saw this scene, she couldn't help but sigh.
"Don't King Li Chuang rarely abuses migrant workers?"
Yu Wan was also extremely worried when he saw it. The unarmed people were always the target of mermaid meat.
"It was indeed rare before." The boss's wife wiped the sweat, so she sat down and continued, "But these days, Xinyang Prefecture has dispatched a large army and levyed labor. I heard that there was a Tongshan Bridge to be built in Shuilian Temple. There was not enough labor, so she arrested many people, and my husband and son were arrested!"
Speaking of this, the boss's wife couldn't stop crying.
After the boss's wife calmed down a little, Yu Wan said, "Where is the Water Curtain Temple? Why did you need to build the Tongshan Bridge? Didn't there be a bridge before?"
"I don't know much about this." The boss lady took the scarf handed over by Xu Hu and gently wiped her tears. "It seems that it was demolished. I don't know who did it. The civilian woman wanted to advise you to leave before these beasts could find out. If you were arrested for hard labor, you would die in the end!"
Oh? Yu Wan's eyes lit up, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Hu Zi, I have a way, maybe I can find the person we are looking for."
"What's the solution?" Xu Hu saw him staring at the peasant army in a smirk, and his face changed quickly, "You won't ask these turtle grandsons to help us find it, right?"
"I can't tell, you're quite smart!"
Yu Wan smiled and patted his shoulder. Henan was Li Zicheng's territory after all. He would never ignore the news of Zhu Cizhao's release. He would definitely send people to search for it from multiple sources. As long as he follows the Dashun Army, he would have the opportunity to find out the whereabouts of the fourth son.
After pausing for a while, he trotted up and said to the whip hands:
"Stop, I'll do it for him!"
This roar almost made the three of them feel paralyzed, and they quickly peeked at each other, their faces full of shock.
Nowadays, no one has ever tried every means to escape labor service. I have never heard of him coming to the door. I immediately looked up at the sky. Is it impossible to get into evil in this blue sky and sunny day?
Seeing their shocked expression, Yu Wan felt funny, and quickly grabbed Xu Hu behind him and said, "We should be bothered by an old man, that's OK."
Xu Hu smiled on his face, but felt very distressed: I was cheated by Master Yu again.
Everyone looked at the two strange boys in disbelief. The whipped old man kowtowed with gratitude and bowed to him, "Thank you, the living Bodhisattva! Thank you, the gods who have saved the sufferings and the sufferings!"
The leader of the peasant army picked Yu Wan's chin with a whip, and after a while, he said, "I don't care whether you are crazy or want to make fun of your grandfather. Since you want to make you happy for this immortal grandfather, you will be able to help you. Be more at peace on the road. If you dare to play tricks, don't blame the uncle for being ruthless."
As he said that, he also grabbed Yu Wan and the others into the team and shouted loudly, "Everyone is cheerful, you must go to Water Curtain Temple tonight!"
Although it is an official road, because the heavy rain has just stopped, the road is full of mud. In addition, most of the servants are elderly, weak, sick and disabled, so the speed of progress is very slow. It was not until the crescent moon was high that it reached the surrounding area of Water Curtain Temple.
Shuilian Temple is built on Tongbai Mountain. The surrounding mountains are steep and cliffs, with two cliffs being more than 100 feet apart. If you want to go there, you must build a bridge.
Although the night was dark and windy, Yu Wan could clearly see that tens of thousands of migrant workers were nervously carrying wood and stones. Fully armed soldiers stood in the valley and cliffs.
The most eye-catching thing is the mountain opposite the east direction, where broken bridges and broken wood are still hanging, which seems to have been destroyed not long ago.
"Master Qianfu, the villain has searched all Fengming Town and only caught the 100th farmer. Please give me a few more words to the villain in front of the 100th."
The leader nodded and bowed to report the situation to the captain, and at the same time took out a ingot of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the other party's hand.
Sure enough, the captain put away his expression calmly, looked at Yu Wan and the others and said, "The harvest is pretty good. I have captured two young and middle-aged men. I can also get along with the boss. Zeng Laosan, you go down."
The commander named Zeng Laosan immediately felt relieved and thanked him very much. Finally, he completed the task, so there was no need to worry that the black hat would be lost.
He raised his whip and pointed at the peasants and said, "Be smart when you work later. If you annoy the grandmaster, I can't save you!"
"Old...President, we have been walking for a day. Can we have a meal first?"
Among the servants, a thin old man said hungryly with his hands raising his belly. If he hadn't been extremely hungry, he wouldn't have dared to make such a request.
Sure enough, as soon as he opened this mouth, all the labor service swallowed, and looked at the commander with a longing look.
Zeng Laosan suddenly felt his face was dull, and he took out the whip without hesitation, and whipped the thin old man without blinking!
"You can't eat four meals a day! You are a scammer and slick old man who knows how to eat!"
He whipped it for more than a dozen times, and the poor old man was so thrust that his flesh was covered in blood, crying and rolling around.
Everyone was frightened by this scene and hurried to work, fearing that Zeng Laosan would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be hungry and pass by it. He would be whipped up by this whip. He should know that they had no money to cure these hidden wounds.
Suffering has taught them to obey, but it has also erased human nature.
"stop!"
Seeing the old man's sang more and more weakly, Yu Wan finally grabbed Zeng Laosan's hand, pinching him so hard that he grinned and hurt.
This scene, not to mention the officers and soldiers and enslavements, even Xu Hu was shocked. Brother Yu was really hard to figure out. He broke out when he said it was out, but he was too brave. There were no less than five thousand soldiers and horses here, and even a hundred Yu Wan would not be enough to die!
Compared to Xu Hu who was scared and sweating, Yu Wan always looked calm, "Since I joined, I have never seen them eat anything. It's enough for you to fight for so long."
Boom! Everyone was stunned. This naughty young man... actually... dared to contradict the centurion. It was so life-deserving!
Even those ordinary soldiers admired and felt sorry for Yu Wan. Such a passionate young man is rare. It just makes Zeng Laos so angry that he will not have a life of life. Not to mention that he has power and power, just by force, the three Yu Wans are not the opponents of Zeng Laosan.
The most mixed feelings of emotion is Zeng Laosan. He thought he wanted to show his face in front of his boss, but he didn't expect that he would have glaucoma and he didn't take himself seriously at all.
"Oh, you little bastard, you dare to contradict the non-commissioned officers, you're extremely guilty!"
After saying that, he opened his eyes wide open, and took out a dagger from his waist with his left hand and slashed it hard towards Yu Wan's neck!
Just when everyone thought Yu Wan would definitely die, he waved his right palm and shook the dagger down. Then he used his left hand to break Zeng Laosan's right wrist!
It seems that Yu Wan was so angry!
