The one who has this idea is the official from Jiupin who just slapped the sycophant on the toilet, Dai Dongche, the ambassador of Xingquan Fucang.

This ambassador is not a diplomat of the ambassador of a country in later generations, with a prominent status, but a miscellaneous official, whose official hat is smaller than that of Sesame's son, and further down, it is not in the stream.

Just by listening to the name of this official position, you can know that he is actually a small boss in charge of the warehouse.

As a person who has no fame and is only a child at best, it can be said that it is not easy for him to get to this day.

He failed to study in his early years, and joined the lowly officials before he was twenty years old, and struggled for thirty years, climbing step by step from an ordinary scribe to the ambassador of the warehouse.

But even though he is already a coveted role model for countless officials, he is still not satisfied, because he still wants to climb higher, he wants to continue to rise to the ninth rank, or even the eighth grade, the seventh grade, and be a county magistrate.

But if no miracle happens, his life will be like this, not to mention the seventh grade county master, even if it is the ninth grade, it will not be his turn, he can only mix from the grade of nine to retire.

But as an ambitious person, he is not reconciled!

He was able to spend thirty years of continuous improvement, and finally put on the official robe that everyone envied, which shows that this person is not idle and content with the status quo.

And ambitious people are the most terrifying, they either become heroes or villains.

After coming out of the prefect's yamen, Dai Dongche looked up at the sky, the sky was pitch black, there was not a drop of starlight, and the pitch-black sky seemed to be a huge hand, completely enveloping Xingquan Mansion City.

At this time, his entourage also led someone to carry a double sedan chair to him, and at this time his entourage said: "Master, are you going back to the house?" ”

Dai Dongche didn't answer immediately, but pondered for a while before he said, "No, go to the king's inspection mansion!" ”

The entourage naturally didn't know, and they wouldn't ask Dai Dongche why he went to the Wang's Inspector's Mansion, he said very consciously: "Yes!" ”

Then he greeted the sedan chair man: "Go!" ”

Sitting on the rickety sedan chair, Dai Dongche half-squinted, he didn't know what he was thinking, his face was a little gloomy, his entourage was also an old man who had followed him for many years, and when he saw that his master seemed to be in a bad mood, he immediately whispered: "Master, what's wrong, is it because of the puppet Tang thief army?" ”

Dai Dongche turned his head slightly, then glanced at him, and didn't say much, just nodded slightly!

At this time, the entourage who followed the sedan chair continued to speak: "Those pseudo-Tang thieves are outside the city, and now everyone is panicking, the little one heard that the people of the Yang family in the east of the city wanted to escape from the city, but as soon as they got out of the city gate, they were stopped by the pseudo-Tang thief army outside the city, and they finally ran back!" ”

Dai Dongche snorted coldly at this time and said: "Stupid, the pseudo-Tang thief army is not a fool, naturally they will watch several city gates, how can it be so easy to escape, let alone them, even if the scout wants to get out of the city, it is not so easy!" ”

"But it's okay if you can't escape, if everyone wants to escape like him, this city can't be defended!"

When Dai Dongche said this, he naturally wouldn't tell others, and he also had the idea of escaping from the city in the afternoon, but before he could do it, he heard that the gentry who escaped from the city first were either shot and captured by the pseudo-Tang outside, or they were embarrassed to get back, so I haven't heard of anyone who successfully escaped.

That's why he stopped thinking about escaping, and not only him, in fact, most of the people who were meeting in the prefect's yamen today had experienced the same thoughts as Dai Dongche.

It's just that this idea has not been implemented.

It's not so easy to get out of town now.

Since the puppet Tang thief army arrived outside the city of Xingquan Mansion in the afternoon, the Xingquan Mansion has closed several gates in and out, and has also sent people to strictly defend it, on the one hand, it is to prevent the puppet Tang thief army from trying to sneak into the city, but on the other hand, it is also to prevent a large number of people in the city from escaping.

This person is all gone, how can the government catch the young and strong to defend the city!

However, this is only a superficial job, ordinary people can't get out of the city, but some rich and powerful people want to go out of the city, and the people guarding the city gate really don't dare to stop them.

But since the afternoon, there have been not a hundred people trying to escape from the city to other places to escape the war, but there are also eighty, but I have not heard of anyone who has been able to break through the blockade of the puppet Tang thief army and successfully escape.

Those who escaped from the city were lucky and could get it back, but if they were not lucky, they would be shot or captured by the puppet Tang thieves outside the city.

In order to prevent the important people in the city from escaping, and then go to other places to carry rescue troops or something, after Hao Bonian arrived in Xingquanfu City, he soon completely surrounded Xingquanfu City.

Such an encirclement, the people in the city want to escape, one or two people secretly run is fine, the single action is flexible, the target is small, and it is easier to hide, so it is still possible to run out.

But if you run away like a big family moving, you will never be able to escape.

But those who wanted to escape were some large gentry families, and they naturally did not flee alone, they also had to take their parents and children, a group of wives and concubines, and a cart full of gold and silver treasures.

Isn't it just a joke that this brings so many carriages and wants to break through the blockade of the Datang New Army!

For these people, the Datang New Army is a prisoner who can be captured, and those who can't be captured must keep as much of their property as possible.

After capturing more than a dozen convoys, the Datang New Army gained a lot, a total of two captured masters, half the size of the handsome son, and a dozen of the delicate women, as for the beautiful wives and concubines of those masters and sons, there is a large group.

Of course, these captives were not taken seriously by Hao Bonian, and he valued more of the large amount of booty captured with these captives.

Gold and silver jewelry, there are many calligraphy and paintings, and if those jewelry are not included, there are more than 300 taels of gold alone.

Just this batch of goods, the total value is not less than 10,000 taels.

And this figure is already equivalent to the money looted by the Datang New Army in Zhengtai County in the past few months.

Even if this gold and silver cannot be eaten or drunk, it can be traded with businessmen like Old Man Sun to buy strategic materials such as copper, iron, saltpeter, and sulfur needed by the new army of the Tang Dynasty.

And in addition to foreign transactions, the follow-up Tang Dynasty can't always stop issuing officials' salaries, which can only be distributed when there is money.

So now, for the Datang New Army, the more gold and silver seized, the better.

For this reason, Li Xuan, who arrived here at night, also specially praised Comrade Xiao Hao, saying that he was anxious about the Tang Dynasty and worried about it, but he was really a loyal minister, a great loyal minister!

Xingquan Mansion is besieged, some people want to escape, some people want to defend to the death, and some people will make other plans.

Dai Dongche wanted to escape at first, but after escaping, he wanted to be a main battle faction and defend the city of Xingquan Mansion, when he went to the prefect's yamen for a meeting today, he had already thought of several strategies, and was ready to take the initiative to donate to Lord Tongzhi in order to gain appreciation, and at the same time he was also ready to take out some good things in the warehouse to press the bottom of the box and use them as military expenses.

He planned to do this before, naturally not because he was loyal and patriotic, but because he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get ahead, and after making a great contribution, he was afraid that he would not be promoted?

His requirements are not high, and he doesn't expect to reach the seventh grade in one step, but he has to be promoted to one level, and the ninth grade is very good.

But there will be thought that he has not had a chance to express his determination to stick to it, that is, he was reprimanded by Tongzhi Chang Zhuo.

At that time, he not only lost face and couldn't get off the stage, but also lost the opportunity to give advice to Dai Dongche in the future, so that in the meeting for more than an hour, he could only sit there dryly and watch others talk to Dai Dongche.

However, taking advantage of the opportunity of the puppet Tang thief army to attack the city, the idea of making himself go further has not been broken.

Since Dai Dongche didn't give him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and since the imperial court didn't give him a promotion, then he simply went to his family.

Isn't the puppet Tang Thief Army a good choice?

I heard that in the past few years, there have been no officials on the side of the puppet Tang Thief Army who have surrendered to the past, and if they take the initiative to surrender to the past, this is the work of the dragon.

Since he can't be a big official in Daming, he went to the pseudo-Tang to be an official, and this official should not be an official.

As for when the puppet Tang thief army will be destroyed, Dai Dongche is still more optimistic about this, this puppet Tang thief army of a few thousand people can defeat the 10,000 official army, this chance of development is not big, but there must be, take 10,000 steps back and say, if the puppet Tang thief army is finished that day, it is a big deal that he will be a traitor again, maybe he will be able to get promoted and make a fortune because of his meritorious service.

However, as an ambitious official, he didn't want to wait until the puppet Tang thief army entered the city before surrendering, which would not show his talent and value at all, so how could he get the importance of the puppet Tang thief army, such as surrendering in advance, and it was best to make a contribution to the city.

How do you dedicate the city?

That's why Dai Dongche often inspected the mansion before tonight.

Inspector Wang and he are sons and daughters, of course, this relationship is not important, the important thing is that Inspector Wang has nearly dozens of arrests and helpers under his hands, and is responsible for security patrols in the city.

It's just like that, it's not worth Dai Dong's late night to go to his house, more importantly, he knows that this Wang Inspector is the same as himself, and he wants to climb up, but this person was a mountain bandit before, and if there is no miracle in this life, he will not be able to climb in this life.

Dai Dongche thought that he was at least half sure that he would persuade him to find a way to open the city gate and surrender to Chengcheng and win a merit in dedicating the city.

But what he didn't expect was that when he arrived at the king's inspection palace, he heard the people in the king's palace say that the king was not there, and said that he went to the city gate with his manpower.

Patrolling the city gates?

What are you kidding, the city gate is so dangerous, according to the character of the bastard surnamed Wang, he will take risks at this time, impossible.

And in the middle of the night, he took a group of people to patrol? What to patrol? What's there to patrol?

After Dai Dongche stood in place and thought for a long time, he suddenly slapped his head and couldn't help scolding: "Good bastard, you don't even call me if you surrender!" ”
