Zhang Xianzhong, Ma Yuanli, and Feng Shuangli were all speechless by Li Dingguo.

Also, what can be said accurately, if you are really afraid of this and that, then nothing can be done.

So Zhang Xianzhong immediately made a decision, ordered Mingjin to collect the troops, and then said to Ma Yuanli: "Ma Yuanli, you immediately send someone to shout, as long as they stay at home and do not come out, and do not resist the offensive of our army, then I will not embarrass them, if there is a gaffe, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed." Then vacate the north gate, and let them go on their own, and no one will stop them! ”

Zhang Xianzhong spoke, but Ma Yuanli didn't dare to disobey, and immediately went down to order someone to pass the word.

In this way, the vigorous siege operation was temporarily over, and the order of Zhang Xianzhong soon spread throughout Nanchuan City.

Everyone was skeptical, because it was true that Zhang Xianzhong said to him that the north gate was really empty, and looking at it, there was no one guarding outside the north gate, as if it was really like that.

So the people's hearts began to waver, after all, although the city was defended today, but the casualties were not small, three or four hundred people were killed or wounded, and lost their combat effectiveness, which is not small for less than three thousand defenders of the city.

And these various materials for defending the city are also consumed by this day, and they are basically going to bottom out, no one is a fool, whether the city can be defended or not, where can there be no points in the heart.

Faced with such a situation, Guan Dachang quickly found Mao Ziyang and said to Mao Ziyang: "My lord, the morale of this army is going to be unstable, my lord, you have to think of a way!" ”

Mao Ziyang also had a bitter face, and said: "With such a military, what can this official do!" ”

"My lord, since ancient times, if you want to improve the morale of the army, it is nothing more than to give a heavy reward, as long as the adult takes some money and food to work the army, the morale of the army will naturally slowly settle down."

Mao Ziyang listened, smiled bitterly and shook his head,

"General, you said that it is light, what is it like in the treasury, don't you know it, general? Why don't you go and see, if there is still money and food in the treasury, you can take as much as you like! ”

Guan Dachang listened, thought about it, and said again: "Now it seems that the adults can only go to the county king's mansion again, even if the county king can't get the money and food for Zhang Thief, but the money and food of the labor army, he can't refuse!" ”

When Mao Ziyang heard this, he just shook his head and didn't go.

The literati want to be embarrassed, the last time he went, he touched his nose with ash, and at this time, Mao Ziyang naturally didn't want to suffer that anger anymore.

"My lord, the morale of this army is incredible, if the thief breaks the city, none of us will survive!"

Mao Ziyang was also taken aback, let's go, just go, anyway, I lost face once, and I don't care about losing it again.

So Mao Ziyang came to the county king's mansion again and met Zhu Zhixiang, the king of Nanchuan County.

That Zhu Zhixiang asked what he meant, and said: "This guard Nanchuan City, everyone is responsible, and this domain can't stand idly by, but the palace is also at the bottom of the treasury, so let's take out the utensils used in the house and some treasures and sell them, which can be regarded as a little bit of the heart of this domain." ”

Mao Ziyang was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Zhu Zhixiang to reach such a point, he still didn't pull out a dime, he said it nicely, and he took things out and sold them, but at such a juncture, these things are ghostly!

"Domain Lord, as the king of Nanchuan County, Nanchuan City is now in such a big disaster, is it a bit too much for you to do this!"

"Presumptuous!"

Zhu Zhixiang scolded again,

"Lord Mao, don't forget what your identity is! What is the system of talking to this clan like this! ”

Mao Ziyang was blushed by Zhu Zhixiangxun's thick neck, and finally "snorted" heavily, didn't even salute, and threw his sleeves away.

After Mao Ziyang left, Zhu Zhixiang's eldest son Zhu Pingbi walked into the hall and said to his father Zhu Zhixiang: "Father, now that the city of Nanchuan is in danger, why do you care so much about money and food, father?" If the city is really broken by the thief, our county palace will not be able to escape! ”

"Hey!"

Zhu Zhixiang sighed heavily, and then said to Zhu Pingbi earnestly: "Bi'er, you know this truth, how can my father not know!" Say a thousand, say ten thousand, who called us the vassal kings!

Can you pay for this money? As soon as he took it out, there would immediately be that shameless official who impeached his father, saying that his father had a close relationship with local officials, and that he must have taken out money and food to invite people to buy people's hearts, and there must be an ulterior secret in it!

For the emperor, this kind of thing has always been to kill the wrong person and not let it go, at that time, not only could we not keep the hereditary title, but even our lives were hanging! ”

Zhu Pingbi listened, this is what he understands Zhu Zhixiang's worries, if that's the case, it's better to fall into the hands of thieves, in that way, at least there is no humiliation of the ancestors!

"Bi'er, you pack up, disguise yourself, quietly leave the palace with a few guards, and disappear, once the city is broken, no matter what happens, you can't come out, you know?"

"Father, what about the child,"

"Needless to say, my father is doing this, not only for you, but also for the inheritance of our Nanchuan County King, go and clean it up."

After speaking, Zhu Zhixiang returned to the bedroom to rest with the support of a maid.

But said that Mao Ziyang returned to the county government and told Zhu Zhixiang what Zhu Zhixiang refused again, Guan Dachang was furious, slapped the table and said: "Damn, who is we working hard for?" It's not for the sake of his Zhu family! Now he doesn't cherish it himself, what else do I have to fight for! ”

After yelling, Guan Dachang ignored Mao Ziyang, raised his feet and left.

"General, General,,,"

Mao Ziyang called again and again, but he couldn't call Guan Dachang back, Mao Ziyang only said that Guan Dachang was angry, and it would be okay to dissipate the anger, who knew that the next day, the news of Guan Dachang's disappearance came.

Mao Ziyang is in a hurry, who is missing this Nanchuan City now, and he can't be missing Guan Dachang!

So Mao Ziyang hurriedly arrived at Guan Dachang's house, and asked around to find out that Guan Dachang secretly took his family with him last night, and left from the north gate.

This news blew up all of a sudden, and all the soldiers defending the city ran home one after another, dragging their families to escape from the north gate with their families, and no one could stop them, of course, no one stopped them, because the person who was ordered to stop them, he also had to leave!

The officers and soldiers defending the city have all run away, what does that mean, even fools know it, this time, the situation is even more out of control, and the little people can't sit still, they all follow the officials and soldiers out of Nanchuan City.
