"Dafu." Yang Qiu, who was standing on the side, said: "It may be that the Chengtou Xiang Army froze at night to make a fire to keep warm, and the residual fire was not extinguished after dawn, so that the water was gone." ”

Yang Xuan is reasonable, the temperature has dropped recently, and he has already felt cold at night, and the clothes of the Xiang army are thin, and it is very likely that the fire will be heated at night.

Wang Yue had some anger in his eyes, and said: "Recently, the old man is going to go to work, and he is not a director, and these people are becoming more and more slack." ”

"Dafu doesn't have to move." A staff member advised: "The edict must have arrived in Fuzhou, but he was stopped by the rogues and could not come." These things, handled by the successor, have nothing to do with the mansion. ”

Wang Yue nodded slightly, but the sense of uneasiness in his heart was still very strong, his white eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he just looked at the Jianzhou city wall not far away in a daze.

"Be careful in everything...... Wang Yue said in a deep voice, "You guys go over and take a look......"

Yang Zhao gritted his teeth, moved his cheeks a few times, and said, "Dafu, I'll take a look." ”

At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a rumbling sound.

It was like thunder, but it was a little stuffy, and there was a slight tremor under the soles of the feet.

"It's broken!" Wang Yue's face turned pale and said: "The fire is lit inside, and the outside is rushed, it's the rogue who is coming!" ”

Yang Zhao immediately hugged his fists and said: "Dafu, I will immediately take the brothers of the group training to take a look, and also ask the Xiang army to hurry up to the city." ”

"Okay, okay."

Wang Yue has been an official in Beijing for many years, and he has also been an official in the local government for many years, but he has never experienced such a thing. In the later period of the Beijing Division, Liukou had already started an incident on Qinfeng Road and Hedong Road, but for these Beijing officials, Liukou was just some words and numbers on the newspaper, and he didn't care too much, Wang Yue was just a middle-level civil official at that time, and the major military and political affairs had nothing to do with him.

Until the eleventh year of Chongde, he defeated many streams of rogues on Henan Road, and since then, the rogues have been in a slump and scattered, and they have not heard of the rogues for several years.

When there was really a large stream of rogues in front of him, Wang Yue was already at a loss, and when he saw Yang Yu taking the initiative to ask for help, Wang Yue actually felt like crying.

At that moment, Wang Yue pointed to a box cage and said, "A box of money here, a thousand yuan, will be rewarded to Yang Xuan." ”

"Xie Dafu."

Yang Zhao didn't say much, and glanced at the Li family brothers and others, and more than 100 people rushed out and swarmed out from the gate of the prefect's yamen.

There is no trace of people around, after the fire, many people in the city know that something is wrong, many people choose to close the door and hide their traces, and some men have climbed on the roof to watch, most of the people around the government are large families, these domestic servants are taking heavy objects near the main entrance.

Yang Yu took a sip and scolded: "These fools, the top door is used for birds, people don't know how to use ladders, they can't hit the door?" Tens of millions of people came into the city, just to catch turtles in urns, and the door was locked, just so that all the people were caught alive, and not a single one of them could escape. ”

Li Fuwen said with a smile: "But isn't it, if I change into my old robe, go to the temple bridge cave vegetable field somewhere to hide, endure hunger and thirst for a few days, if the thieves slaughter the city after breaking the city, it will be fine to avoid the first few days." ”

"They also have a small family," Yang Zhao laughed cruelly, and said in a low voice: "Wang Yue's old dog, you want to send us away with a box of money?" Wait a while near the city gate, let's surrender the city and rob this old boy's belongings. There are also rich and wealthy people around, who have already inquired about the details, and as soon as the chaos starts, we will start looting, and we will make a decision on this windfall. ”

All the regiments were pregnant with ghosts, holding spears,?, knives and other weapons in their hands, and ran along the road to the south, when the sound of horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and it was really like there was thunder rolling in the distant sky.

When they got to the city gate, the fire was gone, and the smoke had faded, it was obvious that no one had set fire to the city, and when they got closer, there was no one on the street, only more than a hundred people were guarding near the city gate, and when they saw Yang Zhao and others, they didn't pay attention to it.

Closer, the sound of the cavalry galloping was getting closer and louder.

When everyone was left less than half a mile, Yang Xiang and others saw the military flag unfurled, and the "Li" word flag was flattened by a knight, and then rushed through the city, after entering the city, the tall flag bearer unfurled the flag, and everyone saw clearly that the front was the Li flag, but the back was written "Marshal Fengtian Advocacy of Righteousness", Yang Zhao and others were literate, and they were shocked and stopped at a glance.

"Welcome to the city."

Luo Zhenbang and a group of thieves were scattered at the gate of the city, a team of more than 100 cavalry entered the city, and then Li Kaiming, who was in a hat and blue robe, rode in, his tall body, a red face with a national face full of smiles, after entering the city, he drove the yellow fat horse to run ten steps first, and then slammed it, the horse screamed, and lifted half of his body.

Li Kaiming didn't move at all on the horse, but just loosened the reins slightly, and the war horse smoothed out again.

Li Kaiming laughed and said: "I haven't ridden a horse for a long time, this time I ran 200 miles from Jianyang, and it took me a night, thinking that riding must be deserted, this time I tried it, fortunately, I didn't throw it away!" ”

Luo Zhenbang said with a smile: "Dashuai, wait for your subordinates to lead your horse into the mansion for a while." ”

"It's just a government office." Li Kaiming showed contempt on his face and said: "When I enter the capital of Great Wei in the future, Lao Tzu will ride into the Xuanzheng Palace!" ”

"Handsome and heroic!"

Everyone praised for a while, and Li Kaiming was slightly intoxicated as if he had drunk some wine.

This time the surprise attack on Jianzhou is risky, because the foundation of Jianyang is not stable, and the army of fifty or sixty thousand people is still practicing there, Li Kaiming only brought a few generals and more than 1,000 old battalion soldiers this time, in fact, it is the real elite who can be relied on to raid Jian'an Fucheng, and his subordinates are only less than 2,000 left, and more than 1,000 war horses.

If the surprise attack is unfavorable, Li Kaiming will lose his real combat power for a long time, and he will lose the possibility of further strengthening his strength. Jian'an's treasury must not be compared with Fuzhou Road, but when you open an armory in a military state, there will be some armor, weapons, shields, horses, food and other urgent military supplies, Li Gu and Pujia have sent a lot of money and ordnance, but it is still not enough to arm an army of 60,000 people.

These days, many miners are working around the clock? and horizontal knives, and also hit the heads of some spears, and many ordinary Ding Zhuang held wooden poles and spears, and they also used them as weapons.

There are also things such as building shields, there is no shield on the battle array, and the military spirit will naturally collapse when the battle damage is too large, so the shield is also a very important material.

The new rogue is not an opponent of the officers and soldiers, and the main reason is also the lack of protection, in addition to the lack of attack power. Li Kaiming now has less than 2,000 bows on hand, and the quality is far worse than that of the forbidden army, and the Fuzhou forbidden army has at least about 300 divine arm bows, and it is even worse in long-range attacks.

A good bow, the manufacturing process is as short as half a year, as long as several years, even if the standard bow takes at least half a year, generally it takes a year.

During this time, the Liukou came to search everywhere, but they collected more than 1,000 longbows, the quality of which was good and bad, and the best civilian bows could not be compared with the standard bows in the army.

The biggest goal of building Anfu City this time is the Xiangjun Treasury in the city.

Although the Xiang army is wasted, the combat effectiveness of the Xiang army in various places is not the same, the weapons are poor, and there are not many shields and armor, but the number of bows and arrows is a lot, after all, the Wei army is good at bows and crossbows, and the bow quality of the Xiang army is poor, but compared to the shoddy hunting bows of the people, it is still much stronger.

If you can raise one or two thousand bows in Fucheng, this trip will not be a loss.

There must be some weapons, leather armor, armor and shields, plus money and food, and the joy on Li Kaiming's face is also from the heart, without concealment.

"The cavalry entered the city and took control of the surrounding gates." Li Kaiming ordered: "The three armies following behind the order hurry up, and they will be stationed in the capital city after that." ”

Li Kaiming planned to use Jianzhou as the base first, polish and train the army, and even collect taxes in Jianzhou City normally, so he hurriedly followed the order: "Then pass on my general's order, you must not set fire to the city, kill the people, and plunder the affairs of large households. Don't kill, don't commit adultery, don't commit adultery, and those who violate orders will be beheaded! ”

"Obey the orders of the commander!"

Everyone bowed down and obeyed the order.

At this time, more than 100 people were snatched from the city, all wearing military robes, holding spears,?, horizontal knives and other weapons. Stand in front of the horse and prepare for the impact.

"Generalissimo, Generalissimo." Yang Zhao shouted from afar, and when he got closer, he lay down and bowed: "The big families and villains in the city all know that they are here to serve today, and they are willing to stand in front of the army and go to fetch money and food." ”

"This generation of villains," Li Kaiming raised his palms and said with a smile: "But villains also have the use of villains, they have been in Jianzhou for a long time, and they are familiar with the situation everywhere, leave them, and ask them to take the lead in plundering the floating wealth of big households." ”

"I really want to slaughter these dogs." Liu Maoqi scolded with a smile: "That bearded one, he set up a card in the valley mouth area before, and robbed Lao Tzu several times." ”

Yang Qiu fell to the ground, and his body suddenly shook.

"That's it, get up." Liu Maoqi walked in front of Yang Qiu, kicked hard, and scolded: "Take Lao Tzu to the yamen of the mansion first, and then arrest Wang Yue's old boy." ”

"Yes," Yang Yu hurriedly got up and said, "Wang Yue, that dog official, took him hundreds of cages, and he still delusionally thought that we would defend the city for him." He has searched for good land, and now it is good, these things are prepared for the generalissimo. ”

Li Kaiming also smiled slightly when he heard it, and he felt very good.

In this incident, the looted floating wealth has already exceeded one million guan, plus the people sent by Li Gu, as well as the harvest of the founding of the state, there will be millions of guans of income at once, which is an accumulation that has not been obtained in the past few years.

The money they looted could not last at all, and even the money was not very meaningful, because all their materials were obtained by looting, so what was the use of the money? What can be bought can be robbed, and what can't be bought can also be robbed, so why spend money?

Only a few times, when they are hidden, they will send people with money to the military states to buy some medicinal materials, cotton cloth, grain and other urgently needed materials, and have to spend a lot of difficulties and dangers to transport to the army, at this moment, but already sit on the two counties of Jianzhou, occupy the capital city, and soon have millions of money, can pay the soldiers, build weapons, buy food and other materials, as long as another month, more than 60,000 soldiers have been trained for a period of time, plus the elite of the old battalion, it is considered to have a fight.

"Wait ahead." Liu Maoqi shouted: "Arrest Wang Yue Lao'er for me!" ”

……

The noise at the city gate not only did not stop, but became louder.

Then the sound of horses' hooves and cheers came again and again, Wang Yue has been an official for more than 40 years, how can he not understand that the capital city of Jianzhou has been broken? Even those ordinary servants and family members also understand in their hearts that all of them are colorless, and the timid ones are already trembling.

Wang Yue climbed the corner tower of the palace to watch, there were already a large number of flags and cavalry pouring in at the city gate, scattered like the tide, controlling the gates, a large number of soldiers of the Xiang army, discarding the military flags and weapons in their hands, one by one honestly kneeling on both sides of the road, listening to the Hou Fa fall.

The commanders of the van army, the battalion commanders, were all tied with ropes by the thieves, dragged behind the horse's buttocks, and trotted dejectedly.

There was a group of cavalry coming along the avenue to the side of the government, and Yang Zhao and other scoundrels were also holding weapons in their hands, running in front of the cavalry with great momentum.

Wang Yue sighed, knowing that these family soldiers he hired had already turned against the water, which was also expected, neither was he a member of the family, nor did he have a long time to control the means to polish it, and he used both grace and power to make him die of loyalty, and now he turned against the water, which was expected.

I just didn't expect this gang of scoundrels to be so shameless, Wang Yue thought that they would scatter and flee, but unexpectedly, these people led the thieves who had just entered the city and came straight to the mansion.

Wang Yue's figure is a little rickety, people are above the corner tower, the breeze blows, his red robe blows and swings, the long white eyebrows and beard are swaying with the wind, looking at it is really like a fairy man.

But it is a bitter face, as the sound of the horse's hooves is getting closer and closer, the people in the government are like ants running around on a hot pot, some people hide in the back garden, hide in the flowers, lotus ponds, mountain and stone gaps, some people drill under the bed, some people climb to the roof to hide, these people are sick and rushed to the hospital, and those big households who block the door, hope to escape this disaster in this way.

Wang Yue didn't move at all, just staring at the cages inside and outside the door in a daze.

More than 300 large wooden boxes, hundreds of thousands of dollars and countless antique utensils to play celebrity calligraphy and painting, this is the accumulation of decades of eunuchs, Wang Yue is nearly seventy, originally planned to rely on these things to return to his hometown, a good life to enjoy more than ten years, now it seems that all the plans are jokes, all are empty.

"False, really vain......" Suddenly, Wang Yue couldn't help laughing.

"Wait until you all kneel, kneel!"

"After kneeling, hold your head in both hands, rush your head down, don't look around, don't move!"

"Whoever dares to stir up trouble will be put to death immediately."

Yang Zhao and the others took the lead in rushing in, but they were driven aside by the cavalry, many rogue cavalry are quite familiar with such a scene, they are all veterans, will they be long? Hanging down, sharp? The tip swept past the nose and shoulders of Wang Yue's soldiers, and everyone did not dare to resist, and knelt down honestly one by one.

Someone moves a little and is immediately long? Across the row, blood spilled out, and suddenly there was a low shout, but then he was scolded again, and no one dared to move this time.

"Where is Wang Yue?" Li Kaiming also rushed over quickly, and Li Kaiming only glanced at the boxes on the ground, and didn't pay much attention to them.

There is no need to care too much about what has already been obtained, money is only the cornerstone of a great cause, not the goal.

Liu Maoqi rode over, pointed to the corner tower, and said, "Big boss, that dog official is on the corner tower." ”

Li Kaiming smiled slightly, and drove the war horse to the bottom of the corner tower, and a few of Wang Yue's close attendants were holding the divine arm bow on the corner tower, but Li Kaiming was not afraid and didn't see it at all.

However, Liu Maoqi and the others were cautious and cautious, and followed with shields, in case those people went crazy and suddenly shot arrows.

"Wangdafu." Li Kaiming looked up, the red-robed man seemed to be standing majestically on a high place, but in fact he was like a prey falling into a spider's web, the higher his identity, the more he struggled, the more ridiculous and pitiful he was.

Li Kaiming said: "Please also ask Wang Dafu to come down, it is not very good-looking to make it like this." We want to establish a foundation in Jianzhou, as long as Wang Dafu is willing to surrender and depend, his life can be guaranteed, and his official position can also be guaranteed. ”

Wang Yue showed a strange smile on his face, bowed his head to Li Kaiming and said: "The old man has been perverse in Jianzhou in recent years, others dare not say it, and the old man himself still doesn't understand?" The people of Jianzhou hate the old man to the core, even the gentry and students have a lot of complaints, use the old man to continue to be the prefect of Jianzhou, don't you want to succeed? Lies and deception are not done by heroes! ”

When Li Kaiming heard this, his expression froze, he really wanted to coax Wang Yue down, and then gather the gentry and the common people, torture and kill in public, in order to invite people to buy people's hearts.

"The old man knows that you are one of the many rogue leaders," Wang Yue said in a deep voice, "He is ambitious and trying to turn things upside down. ”

"That's how the way of heaven is, every three hundred years." Li Kaiming said: "Wang Dafu is also a Jinshi and the first, how can you not see this? ”

"It's true that there will be chaos in three hundred years, and there will be a saint in three hundred years." Wang Yue sneered: "Look at yourself, do you look like a saint who should be a saint once in a hundred years? ”

Li Kaiming is stagnant, although he has ambitions, he also feels that he has luck, skills, and ability, and his subordinates follow him all the way, and he also has a faint feeling that Li Kaiming is a person who can achieve great things, but to say that it is a saint who comes out once in a few hundred years, he determines the world, establishes the program, and rebuilds order, such a heroic posture, Li Kaiming does not have this self-confidence, and his subordinates may not have this kind of self-confidence.

"Taizu Cheng was just an ordinary person before, a member of Luo Tuosheng." Li Kaiming frowned and said, "An Zhi I am not a person who can re-stabilize the world?" ”

"Oh?" Wang Yue laughed and said: "Taizu was a member of his life before the incident, but the article has moved the world, and the two taxes, eunuchs, clans, feudal towns, festival marshals, town soldiers, salt and iron, all have been analyzed at the end of the Tang Dynasty. You must have read these articles. Do you think you have the talent of Taizu? At the beginning of the uprising, Taizu responded to a hundred calls in the locality, more than ten counties, several military states, and the chief officials all looked at the wind, because everyone knew that Taizu had the ability to lead the army against the northern captives, and at the beginning of the Taizu uprising, the family assets amounted to 10 million, which could train 200,000 male soldiers within a few years. Li Kaiming, think to yourself, which one can be compared with Taizu? ”

Li Kaiming frowned and was silent, feeling that his words were becoming clumsy, and it was unwise to debate with the old man in front of him.

"Dog official, how many people have you killed in your fishing and meat township, and what kind of ancestor is you talking about here?" Luo Zhenbang is a spiritually awakened person, and he immediately stood in front of Li Kaiming, and scolded with his halberd fingers.

Wang Yue was indeed extremely unpopular, he was scolded by Luo Zhenbang at this time, and he also knew that he was at a loss, but his face was stiff, and he originally planned to humiliate and attack Li Kaiming before he died, but it was in vain.

"Just be caught," Li Kaiming said coldly: "Give you a knife and die a happy death, again??" Collect? Poke the emu heartily and push it? Forgive!

This leader of the thieves has always boasted that he is the leader of the rebel army, and even has the idea of starting a business, but today he was humiliated by such a bad old man, and he was really angry.

Wang Yue smiled, his face was full of madness, and he roared: "The old man said so much, do you think it's Hu Qin?" The old man told you that you are just proud for a while, and someone in Dawei can clean you up. ”

"Oh?" Li Kaiming said coldly: "Which one is Wang Dafu talking about?" ”

"King Zhao can't succeed, his strength is small, his ability is small, and his pattern is small, even Yuan Benchu is not as good." Wang Yue said as if he was crazy: "Lin Douyao, it is impossible to defend the land, don't talk about pacifying the chaos." Only Xu Zixian, the king of Zhongshan, has repeatedly frustrated the old man's affairs, the old man was originally very dissatisfied, but now think about it, his aura pattern is magnificent and generous, good at financial management, can lead the army, decisive and resolute, given time, isn't it another Taizu Gao Emperor? ”

Under the high platform, everyone was shocked when they heard the words.

It turned out that Wang Yue mentioned Taizu, but he wanted to say Xu Zixian.

If there are really any forces and characters in Fujian Road that can threaten Li Kaiming, Xu Zixian, the king of Zhongshan, is the only candidate!

Li Kaiming was annoyed in his heart, looking at Wang Yue in front of him, he was really angry in his heart.

"My generation is in the sky, the Son of Heaven dares to pull off the horse, a prince is a bird!" Liu Maoqi suddenly became angry, stretched out his hand, took off the bow and arrow on the side of his horse's belly, and when he drew the arrow, he scolded: "The greedy old dog dares to speak falsely!" ”

The arrows flew up like a fly, straight to Wang Yue's chest!

Everyone only heard the sound of "Du", and Wang Yue screamed again, this palace scholar, Zhijianzhou military affairs were shot through the heart by an arrow, and after a few screams, he fell from the top of the corner tower.

Obviously, it is impossible for him to surrender to the enemy and commit himself to the thief, so not only will he be more ruined and disgraced, but he will also be ordered by the court to raid the house, and the foundation of the entire Wang family will be destroyed. Wang Yue acted unscrupulously in Jianzhou, but he took care of his family in every way, such a person could not turn his back on the family, in order to survive for a while, so that the family would be damaged.

He didn't surrender, and he didn't dare to commit suicide, so he had to anger the thieves and make himself happy.

If he was captured alive, Wang Yue was afraid that he would be tortured and humiliated, and his death would be miserable.
