Chapter 054: The Means of Making War Money

Seeing that the reinforcements were defeated by the Yellow Turban Army, Gong Jing returned to the Taishou Mansion and began to spread the breath of defeat.

At this time, Qingzhou City, the entire defense line has been broken, if tomorrow the Yellow Turban Army has the power of a great victory and launches another attack, then Jingzhou City will definitely be breached.

Facing Qingzhou City, which was hopeless, Gong Jing began to command his slaves, as well as a small number of officers and soldiers, to make the final plan - to abandon the city and break through, and then turn into the sea of stars, and continue to fight to the death with the Yellow Turban thieves.

As a result, Gong Jing tossed so much, of course, the news leaked, and at this time, those gate valve clans really began to realize that the crisis of their extermination was imminent, so they sent representatives to Gong Jing to ask Master Taishou to hold on and protect everyone's homeland wealth.

As a result, at this time, Gong Jing also began to play a scoundrel, and spread his hands to the representative of this big wealthy family: "There is no one to ask for people, there is no money to ask for, now there is no conscience indoors, there are no rescuers outside, Qingzhou City is about to be broken, I am helpless, but." Then he said righteously: "It's not that I don't want to live and die with Qingzhou City, but if I die in Qingzhou, it will be the first highest-level official in the Han court to die in the hands of the Yellow Turban Thief, which will be a blow to the morale of the entire Han Dynasty, but it is an encouragement to the Yellow Turban Thief, I must not let such a thing happen, so I must turn in, I am ready to return to my hometown Yongzhou, and then ask the court for reinforcements to recapture Qingzhou again." I'm not greedy for life and afraid of death, what is this called? It's called pivoting, which means I turn around and go on the offensive. "Isn't that a lofty reason? That's pretty tall.

After saying this impassioned speech, Gong Jing continued to command his servants, continued to organize his simple bags, and continued to prepare for the escape, not even bothering to pay attention to the deputies.

At this time, these wealthy families really panicked, your Taishou family is in Yongzhou, you are a family of a few to take office, you can pat your ass and leave, but the foundation of our wealthy families is here, once the Yellow Turban Army invades Qingzhou City, everyone's hundreds of years of foundation will immediately disappear, so they have discouraged Gong Jing from running away.

As a result, Gong Jing spread his hands: "I have already said, I must not die here, I have no money or food, and I have no troops to defend the city, I can't do anything." Then he bowed his hand to the representatives of the families: "You will ask for more blessings for yourselves." ”

As the saying goes, people have no head, no lackeys, no head, the biggest official in Qingzhou wants to run, and he runs so high-soundingly, how can Qingzhou not break if he leaves this plate of loose sand?

But what Gong Jing said is indeed true, the people's military morale is unstable, and the government is running out of money and food, which is indeed making this Taishou master powerless, at this time people remember that they should make a difference, so they returned to their homes and began to study how many people contributed how much food.

Gong Jing watched them jump up and down with a gloating mentality, and he still packed his luggage, and let out the wind to say that as long as it dawned tomorrow, he was ready to open the north gate, take the most loyal army and slaves, break through the siege, and turn to the whole country, to the world, to the vast universe, anyway, he can't stay in Qingzhou anymore.

This kind of provocative style finally made those wealthy families panic again, so they stopped arguing, sat down and discussed carefully, and finally before dawn, in the square in front of the Taishou Mansion, there were 10,000 slaves of various wealthy families gathered at once, with the arrival of the personnel, there are donations from each family, 20,000 yuan of food, and 50 million money.

Looking at the mountains of money piled up in front of him, Gong Jing smiled and rattled, thinking that what he wanted was finally in hand.

In fact, Gong Jing saw that the reinforcements were repelled by the Yellow Turban Army yesterday, but the Yellow Turban Army who returned to the camp did not bring many heads of reinforcements, and he had already judged that this time the reinforcements were just a hasty engagement and did not gain a firm foothold, so he judged that the reinforcements would never retreat, and at this time, the Yellow Turban Army had been trapped in the city for a long time, and its morale was exhausted. You can cooperate with the reinforcements from the outside, and the inside and outside should be combined to completely defeat the Yellow Turban Army.

However, before defeating the Yellow Turban Army, Gong Jing was always worried about it, and the reason was that these clans in the city had not made a little blood until now, and they did not let themselves take advantage of this opportunity to make a profit.

As a result, my article did it right, not only got 10,000 new troops, but also obtained, 20,000 pieces of grain and grass, and more importantly, the 50 million yuan, which is definitely a large amount, the war is about to end, with those 20,000 pieces of grain and grass, you can reward and compensate those people who died in the war, and the remaining 50 million money can almost justifiably fall into your own pocket.

So Gong Jing sighed: "This is really a war drum, ten thousand taels of gold, should I contact the Yellow Turban Army?" Let them come a few more times? In that case, you will become a billionaire in the blink of an eye? No, isn't it impossible to share the dirt with them? ”

When the money and grain arrived, the first thing Gong Jing did was to immediately carry the 20,000 Hu grain to the city wall, so that those who were still fighting to the death, the people, had a full meal, and announced on the spot that in this month's defensive battle, the people who died in the battle gave half of the grain 100 Hu (2,400 catties) of war wounded, and no one who participated in the war would pay a day and would never be in arrears.

After this encouragement, the city and the city were thunderous, the fighting spirit was high, and tens of thousands of people took the initiative to participate in the city defense battle.

So Gong Jing once again threatened the gate lord clan: "Now that the people are listening to me, if you don't continue to take out money and food, I will be ready to take these people in." ”

Now these people only have Taishou in their hearts, because only Taishou can give them money and food, and these people really followed Gong Jing in, just with the 10,000 family Ding slaves that everyone drew out, they can't keep this Qingzhou City no matter what, if you want everyone to avoid ruining your family, then you can only listen to the call of this Taishou Lord and continue to contribute money and grain, so, after some bargaining, everyone made up 50 million money, and a large number of grain, grass and cloth, Seeing this steady stream of wealth, Gong Jing was directly happy.
