Chapter 172: Attacking the Kingdom of Qi (3)

The fleeing squires did not dare to come forward, and gathered inside the city gates, looking at the wolf-like soldiers with sledgehammers in alarm, although they were only fifty people. But these guards just didn't dare to take a step forward. Slowly, more and more people gathered here, and it didn't take long for it to increase to seven or eight hundred, which was more than ten times that of the Ye family's soldiers.

"Everyone rush out, staying in the city is death, who doesn't know the measures taken by the Taishou of Nale'an County to treat us rich families, it is the common people who get the benefits, it will only be us who are stripped of our skin and suffer!" A squire shouted.

The crowd rioted for a while, and the guards who were more than ten times larger than Ye Jiajun all swarmed towards the south gate, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

"Kill!" Sledgehammer saw the squire's guards rushing up, and took the lead in meeting them with broadswords, and the rest of the soldiers all showed their blades and slaughtered the rioting crowd.

"Ahh "Ahh "Ahh ——

With a series of screams, the squires who wanted to rush out of the city gate left behind the corpses on the ground, only then did they realize how big the gap between themselves and the army in front of them was, and they couldn't break out of the group of tiger-like soldiers in front of them to blockade them, and the frightened expressions appeared more and more on their faces, and they quickly retreated, but they still wanted to leave, and for a while, the whole scene began to stalemate.

Looking around, the corpses in one place, these dead corpses are like dead chickens, it's not stupid to fight with a sledgehammer, what he wants to do is to kill chickens and monkeys! Sledgehammer pointed at the corpse on the ground with a steel knife, and said softly and hardly: "I said too much, I won't kill civilians indiscriminately, you'd better give me not to act rashly, otherwise these are your ends, and you can live honestly." ”

The squires could not believe the words of the sledgehammer. Although he was very scared, he still gathered at the gate of this city tower and opposed the Ye family's army, but he didn't disperse. Still with the idea of wanting to run for your life.

"The county order, the county order, the people of Le'an County have come in." At this time, several soldiers who escaped from the sledgehammer finally ran to the county office. He called out the prefectural order who was sleeping, and shouted hoarsely.

"What's the panic, I already know the way, isn't it the call from Le'an County? I had long expected such a day. A voice in the county government said, "Come with me to pack up your salutes, go to Linzi Taishou, hurry up and help." ”

"Uh-it's from Le'an County, and I said I wouldn't let the county order you to run." A soldier said in a bit of a panic.

"Presumptuous, I don't even listen to what I say, do I? Isn't it from Le'an County, I know the Tao now, and I don't need you to repeat it. This middle-aged county magistrate with a short and fat figure appeared in front of them, looked at them with a fierce face, pointed at them and scolded: "I don't care if I don't treat you well, do you want to arrest me to receive a reward?" You ungrateful fellows, if you dare to do this, I will let you die at the hands of Lao Tzu first. ”

"Lord Prefectural Order. You misunderstood, how dare we have that guts! ”

"What are you doing then? Don't come and help, I have already gathered more than 500 guards just now, they are from the west to kill, and they may still be there, we hurry to kill the south gate, and we will go to Linzi to report the news. They started a sneak attack from the rear, and they had to be prepared! ”

This county magistrate is a greedy lord, and the county has not developed well, but has collected countless money. Taxes are exorbitant, but it is still possible to have a group of soldiers under him. There was meat to eat, and they were given soup to drink. Therefore, some soldiers are still willing to give him their lives driven by profits.

"Oh no, county order, our four city gates have been blocked, and they are all guarding the city gate tower. We can't escape now. A soldier hurried over to report back.

"Oops, how can this be!" This short county commander slapped his thigh and farted in a hurry. He lay down on the ground and muttered, "Now, suffered, suffered." What the hell is going on?"

One of the soldiers said at this moment: "Why don't we listen to the orders of the other side, and maybe we can save our lives." ”

The county magistrate of the dwarf also came to his senses, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and asked with a light in his eyes: "Then what did they say, tell me quickly." ”

"They said they didn't want bloodshed, they didn't want to hurt the county magistrate, so you could prepare your money and settle the people." The soldier said.

"Well, that's my savings for seven or eight years... Hey, my God, that's it, let's go out, it's important to save our lives, as long as Liu Taishou can eliminate these thieves, this official will be mine sooner or later, everyone will follow, carry those jewels and silver, and I will also go to appease the people, I hope these people will do what they say. ”

At this moment, at the city tower at the south gate, the Ye family soldiers who led the sledgehammer to increase the number of troops to one hundred and fifty were in a stalemate with this group of squires, he was really a little impatient now, and he wanted to kill all these people in front of him, anyway, they were not good birds, and there were not many people. Thinking of this, Sledgehammer was about to give the order.

At this time, a team of disheveled officers and soldiers of Guangrao County arrived, and these squires finally found a life-saving straw. However, the officers and soldiers who arrived said: "The county commander has an order, let you all surrender, he can guarantee that your lives will not be in danger, as for your money, you can wait to see whether your life is important, or money is important!" If you want money, he doesn't care..."

The words of the local officials worked, and when these squires heard this, they gradually began to disperse.

At this time, the county commander of the dwarf had already led hundreds of guards to arrive, carrying more than a dozen large and small boxes behind him. When he came to the sledgehammer, he said flatteringly: "Master Jun, this is all the money of the lower officials, little ones, you all open it and show it to Master Jun." ”

As soon as the box was opened, the dazzling gold-white thing flashed dazzlingly, and the sledgehammer squinted his eyes and roughly estimated the weight of the money, I am afraid that all the value of these materials is not less than five thousand taels of gold, no wonder before leaving, Ye Hao told the sledgehammer that this county order is a greedy person, and he must spit out the gold and silver he plundered.

"Lord Prefectural, you're really rich." Sledgehammer sneered.

The dwarf county commander thought that this was praising him, and continued to flatter: "The military master said that he laughed, this is all my savings, no... It is the savings of the entire county government for seven or eight years, and please be sure to accept it. The lower officials have appeased the people in the county according to your repeated efforts, you see, what you said, does it count to let the lower officials go? ”

The sledgehammer hit Ha Luha and said: "Count, of course count, I can also release those squires for my family, but I don't know if you have taken the lead in taking out so much money in Ludao County, are those squires also so generous." (To be continued......)
