Chapter 130: Don't forget to make money while fighting
Will Ye Chen not save Xiangping City? Of course not, this Liaodong has always been regarded by Ye Chen as his own territory, base, and the loss is too great, he is more distressed than anyone else.
But saving must also be saved at the lowest cost, after Ye Chen and they retreated, not only was there panic in Xiangping City, but the Yellow Turban Army also had a kind of fear spreading.
Now the cavalry retreated, but the fear of the cavalry spread among the yellow turbans, their morale dropped rapidly, and the whole person could not lift their spirits.
"Young family master, these more than 10,000 captives are placed in Yejiabao, and Yejiabao is about to burst." Ye Chen led the people to retreat and returned directly to Yejiabao, because the inside of Yejiabao was too crowded, and the guard camp was camped outside, but Ye Chen wanted to go to Yejiabao to have a look.
As soon as he entered Yejiabao, Wu Xian came to Ye Chen with a sad face.
Ye Chen thought about it, it was indeed inappropriate for these captives to be placed here, Yejiabao was not big in the first place, and it was no problem to live in a few thousand people, they were concentrated in one corner, crowded with people, and it was easy to get infectious diseases.
"You take a letter of resignation, and let Bai Feng arrange to disperse these people and resettle them in batches in Yuxian County, so that they can become farmers again." Now that Ye Chen is concerned about the war, of course he doesn't want to take care of these things, and directly throws them to Wu Xian and Bai Feng.
Ye Chen was about to leave after speaking, but Wu Xian still stopped him.
"Wu Xian, is there anything else? It's okay for me to go see the old man, and there will be a war at night or tomorrow? ”
"Young family master, that, that Hu Yanrou has been clamoring to see you, are you?" Wu Xian said that he didn't dare to continue, but glanced at Ye Chen ambiguously.
What is this Hu Yanrou going to do, of course Ye Chen knows, he has been brought back from the grassland for a year, and every time he sees Ye Chen, he pesters him.
Her request was very simple, either push her down and make him Ye Chen's woman, or send someone to let King Zuo Xian redeem her.
Originally, there was a fantasy of how many otaku people with good figure, good skin, and good looks were chasing after a beautiful woman, but Ye Chen didn't have that mind at all, he had been busy since he came back, and he was fighting most of the year, so how could he have that mind.
As for why he didn't send someone to King Zuo Xian to exchange the ransom, except for a man's careful thinking, he just didn't want to provoke the anger of the Huns at this time.
According to Ye Chen's thoughts, his wife was arrested, which is definitely a man's shame, and this thing can't be endured.
But Ye Chen didn't know the rules of the grassland, it was normal for his wife to be arrested, it was normal for him to be a wife, and it was normal for him to be redeemed by himself after being caught as a wife, and they would not feel ashamed of it, but Ye Chen didn't know it, so the matter dragged on.
"Leave her alone, it's time to fight." Ye Chen really didn't know what to do with it, so he simply continued to dry.
Ye Chen went to see Old Man Ye, everything was fine there, so he returned to the guard camp.
"Tiger head, you go and write a letter, take a team of people, and shoot the letter into the city." Ye Chen called the tiger head over and said: "The content of the letter is very simple, just say that our Ye family has suffered heavy losses in this battle, and if we want to save them, the big family is two million, the medium family is one million, and the small family is 500,000, and we count the size." ”
The tiger head was stunned when he heard this, and said honestly: "Young master, this is a money robbery, will they give it?" ”
"Don't worry, they're frightened now, and Xiangping City is still surrounded." Ye Chen said to the tiger head with a smile.
"Young master, what if they don't give it?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "They don't give it a try." ”
Tiger Head didn't understand the meaning of this, touched his head, and then asked, "Then what if they don't admit it afterwards." ”
"Also, in this way, your family, let them deposit the money in the Ye family money village in the city first, and we will save people when we receive the money, and also send a message to the person in charge of the Ye family money bank, whether this is a big family, a medium family or a small family, let them judge.
”
In fact, Ye Chen didn't think in his heart that they would dare to repay their debts afterwards, if they really dared to repay their debts, they would definitely lose more, there must have been a group of yellow scarves going to raid their homes that night, as for whether it was a real yellow scarf or a fake yellow scarf, although it was obvious, absolutely no one dared to come out and say more.
Ye Chen just wanted to throw the trouble to the shopkeeper of the Ye family's money bank, but it wasn't a trouble, if he didn't pay the money, he would just go to find trouble afterwards, and most people would still pay the money obediently.
The tiger head roared away with hundreds of people.
The sound of horses' hooves sounded in the heads of the Yellow Turbans, and they thought that a large force of cavalry was coming, and they were almost frightened.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there are hundreds of them." Seeing that there was chaos in the camp, the leaders of the Yellow Turbans hurriedly came out to stop them, telling them that there was no large force of enemies.
Although there were only a few hundred people, those yellow scarves were still very afraid, especially those who were sent to stop Ye Chen, who were rushed and killed several times when they came back, and were more than half wiped out, and now they subconsciously wanted to run when they heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Tiger Head rushed towards the crowded place, but before he could rush, the yellow scarf had already separated from both sides, and Tiger Head knew his mission, so he rushed to the bottom of the city wall, took out the arrow tied with a note, and shot the arrow on the city wall.
After doing it, the tiger head did not stop, turned the horse's head and rushed back, this time he found the direction of more people, and rushed out, but those yellow scarves were still scattered, and before the tiger head arrived, there was no one left.
The tiger head was very depressed, and rushed back to recover his life.
"Oh, Tiger Head, I'm back so soon." It was only about half an hour from the time the tiger head left to the time he came back, so Ye Chen asked curiously.
"Yes, I'll be back when I'm done." Tiger Head asked sullenly.
"Hey, Tiger Head, what's upset?" Seeing the tiger head like this, Ye Chen knew that he was unhappy.
"Those yellow scarves are all unplanted guys, and when they see me going, they run away, and there is no one running.
Tiger Head said very angrily.
Originally, he thought that he could still fight a battle and have a good time, but he didn't expect that the group of yellow scarves didn't even give them a chance, and when they arrived, they directly dodged away, gave way, and let the tiger head have no chance to move his muscles and bones, which made him very depressed.
After Ye Chen figured out what was going on, he laughed happily, which made the tiger head even more depressed, and he pulled his head to stuff himself.
The people on the city wall originally thought that hundreds of cavalry were coming to save them, but they didn't expect to rush all the way to the bottom of the city wall, and no Yellow Turban Army dared to intercept them, and then they shot an arrow, and the arrow was tied with a note, they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately sent the arrow to the Taishou.
Li Wei read the note, and secretly scolded the Ye family for being shameless, but at least the Ye family was willing to send troops to save them, and besides, it was not him who paid the money, so he planned to gather all the families immediately and try to persuade them to pay the money to save their lives.
After Li Wei summoned everyone, everyone was silent after Li Wei said this, they really didn't dare to object, they didn't dare to oppose in front of so many people, because they are all smart people, and many families here are good friends with the Ye family, in case it reaches the ears of the Ye family, looking at this situation, the power of the Ye family is already very huge.
Everyone expressed their willingness to pay money and let the Ye family send troops to save people as soon as possible, in fact, many people were cautious, but they didn't dare to show it in front of many people, and some people even wanted to wait for the war to gather everyone to crusade against the Ye family, but they were doomed to fail.
The Ye family's money shopkeeper in Xiangping City, Wang Zhang, received Ye Chen's request for him to collect money there, ranging from two million to five hundred thousand in large, medium and small families, at first he thought that no one would come to pay the money, after all, he thought that this was the same as robbing money.
However, it didn't take long for a group of people to come and ask for money, for fear that it would be too late, and many people also said when they paid the money, they could ask the Ye family to send troops to protect them and go to some of their own houses to have a look.
These people all have Zhuangzi outside the city, maybe they have treasures hidden at home, and they don't dare to go back to get them, so they want the Ye family to send troops to protect them, but now the shopkeeper Wang doesn't care so much, collect the money first.
He can really be said to be soft in collecting money, there are hundreds of large and small families in Liaodong, this Xiangping City is also the governance of Liaodong, most of the families are here, even if they are not here, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many people have come here, after all, this place is much safer than other places.
The shopkeeper felt that there were tens of thousands of grassland horses in his head, and the world was so crazy, everyone was scrambling to give money, and after some calculations, he actually made tens of millions of dollars in vain.
It's not that they're crazy, it's the yellow turbans outside the city that are crazy, the walls were in danger before, and if they were attacked by these hungry peasants, then the whole city would be looted, and then there would be no property left at all, and it was still a question of whether people could survive.
In fact, what they didn't know was that even if they didn't pay the money, Ye Chen would save them, but now that most of them have paid the money, some of them want to play tricks, and Ye Chen will trouble them afterwards.
Ye Chen didn't expect that it would be so easy to get money, he had already thought in advance, he could get a little bit of it, and he had to save it anyway, but now he didn't expect to be able to harvest so much money.
Tens of millions of dollars should be used to make military expenses, this is still very worthwhile, Ye Chen is still fantasizing, sweeping county by county, how many billions can be earned, but this is just thinking about it, he has thousands of soldiers and horses, and he can't do it at all.
After receiving the money, of course he had to work, and Ye Chen began to prepare for the attack.
