Chapter 438: Plunder
readx; Unlike the capital, Hangzhou, and Suzhou, the border or the cities outside the city are basically very small, mainly used to hoard things such as military rations and war materials, as well as to protect local political axes, while the people mainly live in the countryside outside the city. The scale of the www.biquge.info is not very large, even if it is a national central royal capital like the dome. It's not because Zhangxiong doesn't want to build the royal capital bigger, but mainly because the weather, conditions, and cultural environment don't allow it. Before attacking the Dome City, just from the outside, it was only the size of Hangzhou, and it couldn't even reach half of it. This is also why, Wei Hong only used 8,000 cavalry, which could play the role of besieging the city.
There were no civilians in the city, except for the political axe portal, which was the mansion of the nobility. The palace was at the innermost point facing the city gate, and the horse galloped and arrived at the palace gate in the blink of an eye. Wei Hong thought that the palace gate would be closed, but when he arrived, he found that the palace gate was wide open, and the maids and attendants were running around with their burdens. In addition to these irrelevant people, the guards, officials, nobles, and royalty are all gone.
Realizing that Zhangxiong's royal family most likely took the opportunity to escape, but considering that there were only two ways to leave the vault, the first was to leave through the main gate, and the second was to climb over the mountains. These royal families are used to being pampered, and it must be extremely hard for them to climb the mountain, and they are expected to have not run far. Wei Hong immediately ordered Cheng to take 2,000 cavalry and quickly move to the back of the mountains on three sides to intercept the fleeing royal family, and be sure to wipe out the royal family, nobles, and officials in the vault.
Similar to Wei Hong's imagination, Rao is a plateau country like Xiangxiong, and the construction and decoration of the palace are also meticulous, although it is not as high-end and high-grade as the palace of Comrade Lao Li, but it is also extremely good. The impenetrable high walls, the imposing palace gates, the endless palaces, and the various luxurious decorations inside the palace all prove the fact that no king can live a miserable life. On the contrary, as the king of a country, if he can't even improve his own living standards, how can he improve the quality of life of the people in the world?
What is the name of the Jinluan Hall of the Lord of Xiangxiong, Wei Hong doesn't know, even if there is a huge plaque hanging on the door of the palace, Wei Hong can't understand it, and the surname Suo doesn't care about what this Jinluan Hall is called. Entering with Saimaga and a dozen or so soldiers, Wei Hong did not go to sit on the throne, but sat down in a position at the head of the throne, with a soft blanket underneath. After doing horseback for so long, ** has long been worn stiff, and it is a little uncomfortable to sit on such a comfortable blanket at this time.
When Wei Hong waited for Cheng Chumo to hunt down the Zhangxiong royal family, the entire Dome City was in chaos. Although Wei Hong does not plan to keep Zhangxiong, it does not mean that Wei Hong will not take advantage of the fire to rob and fill his pockets...... After all, Datang has also contributed, and it still has to make some extra money. According to the spies, before Zhangxiong participated in the exhibition, looking at the government and the opposition, all the main battle factions were overwhelmed. While highlighting the boldness of the Xiangxiong people, it also disgusted Datang, who was almost hit hard in this battle. In addition to the nobles, the entire Dome City is a wealthy family, which shows the strict hierarchy. The so-called people are divided into groups, and what kind of good birds will the people who are concentrated in this nest be? What's more, the price paid for attacking the vault should also be repaid by these people. Therefore, Wei Hong had already ordered before entering the city, and all the soldiers, after controlling the defenders and officials in the city, would loot on a large scale, and the gold and silver should be heavy, and some daily necessities such as food and clothes should also be taken. When they leave the vault, they will be counted, and then a nine-to-one dividend will be given according to how much each soldier has taken. In short, the more you take, the more you will divide in the end, and if you take 100,000 taels of silver, you will get 10,000 taels of silver.
This directive is undoubtedly inspiring. The soldiers are in the city, they enter when there is a door, and turn over the cabinet, look at the posture, it is not much better than the bandits. As a result, a very peculiar sight appeared in the vault city, each soldier wore armor and armor, and his body was covered with countless cloth bags, large and small, and the sound of clanging in them was incessant, like beggars. The more ruthless soldiers directly led the war horse, put a big bag on the horse's back, and searched door to door, generally not wanting two things, and picking gold, silver, jewelry, jade agate and other valuables.
Seeing that the Tang soldiers were like bandits entering the city, the 1,000 Tubo soldiers were all stupid. They also had the heart to participate in the ranks of 'fighting local tyrants', but Saimaga didn't give an order, so they didn't dare to do it easily;
In the end, he couldn't hold it back, so the Tibetan soldiers asked: "You have plundered so much, if your generals know about it, how can they spare you?" ”
Hearing this, the Tang soldiers shrugged their shoulders disapprovingly, pointed to a big man with two large strings of pearls hanging around his neck, a bag of barley in his left hand, and a roll of silk cloth in his right hand......
"Uh...... Your commander-in-chief doesn't care? The Tubo soldiers looked at the rich Tang soldiers and sighed.
The Tang soldiers stuffed bronze tools into their pockets and said casually: "Grand Commander? Are you talking about Mr. Wei? To tell you the truth, it was Mr. Wei who personally ordered us to loot! ”
The Tibetan soldiers were very envious just now, but when they heard this, they seemed to find some comfort, and grinned: "I see, I'm afraid that no matter how much you loot, it has nothing to do with you, right?" After all, it will be confiscated. ”
After stuffing the bronze utensils, seeing that there was really nothing to take around, the Tang soldier kicked a newly weaned lamb to it, tied it on his shoulder, and said with satisfaction: "You really guessed wrong." If other generals are replaced, they will naturally be confiscated. But don't you look at who the leader is, Mr. Wei, especially the person who plays cards with common sense? Mr. said that confiscation is naturally to be confiscated, but everyone will keep a part. The more you take, the more you keep, it's considered a hard time. ”
Hearing this, the Tibetan soldiers were speechless for a while, looked up in the direction of the palace, and sighed: "Why can't we have such a good master?" ”
Originally, the 8,000 cavalry led by Wei Hong from the border were reluctant to come. After all, a long-distance run is not an easy job, and the slightest carelessness will lead to death in a foreign land. But at this time, none of the soldiers had the reluctant expression on their faces when they had just left Datang, but they all grinned to the sky, and laughter echoed in Nuoda Dome City. This year is the early Tang Dynasty, the income of being a soldier is very average, being a soldier for a few years is really not as good as farming at home to earn more, the key is that being a soldier has the worry of life. And in this battle of the dome, these soldiers who have no hope for the future have turned into nouveau riche, divided the red, sent the money home, and bought a few acres of fertile land, all of which are a generation of local tyrants, how can this make the soldiers unhappy?
