Chapter 96: Ransacking the county government's treasury
After Ye Zheng ordered Zhou Zhengdong, the lord of Dahe County, to be dragged to death on the street, he asked the dying girl to be sent to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
After seeing that the poor girl was sent away for treatment, Ye Zheng led his group of mountain bandits and began to the dog official Zhou Zhengdong's mansion.
They found a large amount of gold, silver, money and antique jade in Zhou Zhengdong's home, although the number was not as large as Zhou Li's, but it was quite amazing. The gold, silver, money and silver bills found in the county government were all liquidated, and the results of the statistics surprised everyone, it turned out that Zhou Zhengdong, a dog official, had no less than 100,000 taels of gold, silver and copper coins at home alone, like those antique jades, which have not been counted.
After learning of this result, a group of mountain bandits smiled happily, they did not expect that this time they came to Dahe County, Zhou Zhengdong's personal property alone, the amount was so huge, several times more than what they had harvested in Feng County a few days ago.
After finishing Zhou Zhengdong's mansion, Ye Zheng led his group of mountain bandits and went straight to the silver and grain depots in Dahe County.
The silver and grain depots in Dahe County were not far from the county government, and it didn't take long for Ye Zheng and the others to find there. When they first arrived there, there were still several teams of officers and soldiers guarding the silver treasury and grain depot, but under the attack of Ye Zheng's gang of wolf-like mountain bandits, soon, those officers and soldiers died and were wounded, and the remaining timid and afraid of death also dropped their weapons and surrendered.
Ye Zheng was supported by the leaders, first came to the gate of the silver vault, looked at the thick and tall treasury door firmly closed, and then he took out a few grenades, blew it loose, and after blowing up the door of the silver vault, Ye Zheng sent several mountain bandit leaders with heavy weapons to smash the door, under the smashing of several hammers and iron rods, the gate of the silver vault collapsed.
When the door of the silver vault fell, everyone couldn't help but gasp after seeing the scene inside, and they were stunned!
The silver treasury in Dahe County is indeed not comparable to the small county town of Feng County, the gold and silver money in the silver treasury, box by box, piled up with more than a dozen large wooden shelves, roughly estimated, the gold, silver and copper coins of the entire silver treasury, if all converted into silver taels to calculate, at least more than 300,000 taels. Mountain bandits like them had only plundered about 10,000 taels at the most before, and they had never dared to think of such a spectacular scene that was calculated in hundreds of thousands of taels at every turn.
In the past, those mountain bandits were at most under the leadership of their own leaders to rob some of the more generous landlords, but they didn't dare to think about it when they hit the idea on the silver treasury of the government and county government.
Now, under the leadership of Ye Zheng, it is as simple and easy as eating peanuts, and suddenly, a group of mountain bandits sighed secretly in their hearts: " Ye Mengzhu is just awesome, people are the ones who do big business, where is it like we used to, only care about small troubles, and don't dare to fight the idea of the government, look at the people Ye Mengzhu robbing the government and the county government, it is as commonplace as usual, hey, people are more angry than people, no wonder Liu Chengfeng of Qingfeng Village respects and respects him so much, it seems that following Ye Mengzhu is really promising. ”
In the admiring and admiring eyes of the mountain bandits under his command, Ye Zheng gave an order, and the mountain bandits suddenly rushed into the silver vault in high spirits, and began to hurriedly carry the treasury silver.
A group of mountain bandits worked in the treasury for half an hour before they emptied all the silver taels in the treasury.
Looking at the dozens of carriages full of gold, silver, and money, all the mountain bandits were happy to close their mouths, and they secretly said in their hearts: What is robbery? This can be regarded as robbery! It is better to follow the Ye League Master to have a head, and in the future, he must behave well in front of him, and strive to show his face when he attacks the state city next time.
These mountain bandits were also carried away by a pile of gold and silver in front of them, and after capturing the two county seats, they arrogantly thought that they were invincible, and they also delusionally thought that they would attack the state city in the future. If the county is a docile domestic dog, then the state is a tiger.
After Ye Zheng saw that the silver treasury in Dahe County had been looted by himself, he left some of his brothers to guard the vehicles, while the rest followed him and went straight to the nearby official grain depot.
This time when I came to the door of the grain depot, without Ye Zheng's orders, several powerful mountain bandit leaders rushed over, only to see that several of them were all carrying their energy, and then at the same time a fierce punch hit the center of the warehouse gate, and suddenly, the door of the grain depot more than one zhang high was smashed by several of them.
After the mountain bandits entered the grain depot, they were amazed again, and secretly said that the official office of the Great Lie Dynasty was rich, not only did they have a lot of money, but also the grain and grass were piled up.
Ye Zheng looked at the mountains of grain at this time, turned his head and asked Liu Chengfeng and said: "Lord Liuzhai, how can you say that there is so much grain and grass in the grain depot in Dahe County, is it not that the government knows that we are short of grain in Canghuang Mountain, and deliberately prepared it for us, hehe......"
Liu Chengfeng couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "The alliance leader laughed, in fact, under normal circumstances, as long as it is not a war and turmoil, the general government will not hoard so much grain, the reason why we came this time to see so much grain hoarded in the granary, it is estimated that the grain tax collected by the Dahe County government from the people from all over the country during the summer harvest of grain during this time, but fortunately we came early, if it is a few days late, it is estimated that these grains and grass will be requisitioned and transferred to Cangdehu Pass." ”
Hearing this, Ye Zheng asked: "During this time, I always heard that the imperial court was going to send King Liang to lead troops out of the customs to rebel, is this the desolate pass?"
Liu Chengfeng nodded and said, "Yes, beyond Canghuang Pass, there are the seven counties of Xicang!" And the governor of the seven counties of Xicang, but has already cut the land for himself, support the army and stand on his own, and do not put the court in his eyes, so now the seven counties of Xicang, although nominally the territory of the Dalie Dynasty, but in fact it has existed in name only, this time the court sent troops out of the pass to rebel, it is estimated that Canghuang Pass will need a lot of grain and grass, and Canghuang Pass belongs to the territory of King Liang, so the grain and grass needed will naturally be requisitioned in the prefectures, counties, and towns of Qingjiang County. ”
Hearing him say this, Ye Zheng suddenly smiled and said: "Lord Liuzhai, if you say so, what we robbed this time is not only the official food of the county government, but also the military food of the rebellious army of the imperial court?
Liu Chengfeng smiled and said: "What we are doing is a business against the imperial court, I'm afraid that he will be a bird!"
Ye Zheng nodded and said: "Not only are we not afraid, since we are here this time, not only to rob Dahe County, but even a few counties near it, we have to take the sheep by the hand and do it ruthlessly, anyway, now that the soldiers and horses in Linjiang City are empty, the state city will not be able to spare extra soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress us for the time being, so during this time, we will do whatever we want and grab it enough!"
When Liu Chengfeng heard this, he was surprised: "Hey, why is there no soldiers and horses in Linjiang City? How did you know about the alliance leader? But if this is the case, then we will have no scruples and be unscrupulous, haha!"
"Sure enough, the hero sees the same thing, and the lord of Liuzhai and I have the same idea. ”
"Hahaha......"
