The rebels want everything!

As long as it is useful and easy to carry, golden tickets, war horses, food, medicinal materials, weapons and armor...... Out of the desire to monopolize Wu'an, and a little fear of the Taiping army, in the face of Yuan Xingwei's sky-high price, Wang Huifang repeatedly retreated, until his temper was almost angry, and finally reached a condition with Yuan Xingwei. ￠￡，

Including a hundred war horses, the rebels obtained a large number of war materials, food, medicinal materials and millions of imperial golden tickets.

According to the agreement, the good friends will have these things ready within three days. When the time comes, the Taiping army will go out of the city, and the Good Friends will deliver the goods with one hand.

As for weapons and armor, this is the lifeblood of the Good Friends Association to ensure their own force, and they are reluctant to give anything.

The failure to get these undoubtedly made Yuan Xingwei a little disappointed. However, to be able to exchange a meaningless city for so many things, the rebels have already made a lot of money. If it is in a few days, when 30,000 city guards are in the city, Wang Huifang's expression is estimated to be very exciting.

It's a pity that I can't see it.

When Yuan Xingwei was secretly thinking about bad intentions, Shi Xianqian, who had been ordered, had also arrived at the Lin family. Because it wasn't Chen Wu in person, the specifications of the Lin family's hospitality this time were much lower, but it was still not slacking off in comparison. Shi Xianqian had only been sitting down in the Four Seas Pavilion for a short time, and he was still secretly looking at the luxury of the family, when Lin Yunwen, the eldest son of the Lin family, hurried over and entertained him personally.

"The Taiping Rebels are leaving Wu'an?"

Hearing the news told by Shi Xianqian, Lin Yunwen was also taken aback.

His head spun quickly, while secretly pondering Chen Wu's intention to make this decision, as well as the change in Wu'an's shape after the Taiping army left. He asked casually, "Mr. Shi." But specifically to announce this? ”

"Not really."

Shi Xianqian shook his head. first conveyed Chen Wu's words to the Lin family and Lin Xing and Lin Yue's affairs, and then said: "Because the stone throwers are heavy and inconvenient to carry, General Tiangong wants to transfer these stone throwers ......."

"My Lin family bought it!"

Before Shi Xianqian's words were finished, Lin Yunwen interrupted him and said decisively: "Please Mr. Shi bid, all the stone throwing machines, how many Lin families want!" Not just trebuchets, other siege weapons. For example, if the rebels are willing to sell it, my Lin family will also buy it. ”

This attitude!

Shi Xianqian couldn't help but secretly admire the accuracy of Chen Wu's prediction, and after hesitating for a moment how high the asking price should be, he finally said: "After the restoration, there are a total of eighteen large-scale torsion stone throwers that can still be used now. As for the price, Shi is not good at military affairs, and he doesn't know how much this weapon is priced. I don't know, how much price is Lin Gongzi willing to pay for this? ”

Not good at it?

Such a big business. With Chen Wu's shrewdness, would he send someone who doesn't understand anything?

Of course, Lin Yunwen will not believe the other party's words. This is just a common asking price trick in business. The easiest way to deal with it is to quote a low price first to test the other party's reaction. But whether it is the situation in Wu'an City or the current transaction, the rebels have the absolute initiative, and Lin Yunwen is worried that his temptation will backfire.

After a moment's deep groaning, he opened his mouth and summoned a confidant and whispered a few words.

Soon, the other party hurriedly returned.

Lin Yunwen took out a stack of golden tickets from the brocade box in his hand and pushed it in front of Shi Xianqian: "Just a little heart, please accept it." If it is not enough, we can talk about it again. ”

Ten Golden Tickets of the Imperial Bank!

Due to the good reputation of the Empire, this golden ticket is not only common within the Empire, but the entire Eastern Continent is almost hard currency.

10,000 gold each!

Touching the flexible and special material of the golden ticket with his fingers, and seeing the amazing number, Shi Xianqian's heart beat uncontrollably. In the account books of the Taiping Army, although the number is much larger than this, after all, it is the military capital of the Righteous Army and the wealth of Chen Wu, not his!

Looking up at the smiling Lin Yunwen, Shi Xianqian hesitated.

He turned his head sideways, forced himself not to look, and asked knowingly, "What does Lin Gongzi mean by this?" ”

The 100,000 gold coins failed to impress the other party, which made Lin Wenwen a little surprised. He took a small stack of five golden tickets from his henchman's hand again, pressed them in front of Shi Xianqian, and said lightly: "I'm not afraid of Mr. Shi's jokes when I say it, Lin doesn't understand this trebuchet." Mr. Shi, can you point me out, what is the value of this stone throwing machine? ”

A full 150,000 gold coins!

As long as you nod your head, it's completely your own!

Thinking about the hardships of living a hard life in Yicheng, Shi Xianqian couldn't resist the temptation, stretched out his hand little by little, and pressed it on the golden ticket.

This move made Lin Yunwen's face show an elegant and handsome smile.

However, his smile lasted for a second, and then froze. Shi Xianqian's face was obviously hesitant and struggling. He remembered the sword he had brought with him when he took refuge in Chen Wu!

Even when he couldn't eat enough and his clothes were patched, Shi Xianqian was reluctant to use his sword as a pawn.

Is that sword worth 150,000 gold coins?

Looking at the workmanship and material, don't say 150,000 gold coins, even 15 gold coins may not be able to be sold.

However, Shi Xianqian suddenly felt that it was worth the price!

If the Taiping Righteous Army is a dou who can't be supported, and it is not worth his refuge, it will be fine. The fact is that the Taiping army is thriving under the leadership of Chen Wu. Even if it was encircled and suppressed by 30,000 imperial city guards, there was Chen Wu's plan to expand eastward, which still made everyone see the dawn and hope.

With such a force that can succeed, his future will never be worth only this 150,000 gold!

His hand slowly lifted from the golden ticket. There was reluctance in his eyes, but he was a little more relieved.

Lin Yunwen's face changed several times, and he couldn't help but sigh regretfully.

A moment later, a full 1.2 million golden tickets appeared in front of Shi Xianqian.

Looking at this figure that was eight times that of the previous one, Shi Xianqian wanted to say in his heart that it was impossible to say that he was not touched. But for him, who had already thought about it, the temptation was not as big as the previous 150,000. Silently packed the prepaid half of the golden ticket in a brocade box, got up and said goodbye to Lin Yunwen.

"We will inform Lin Gongzi before evacuating, please prepare the remaining money and the manpower to receive the stone thrower."

………

After coming out of the Lin family, being blown by the cold wind, Shi Xianqian couldn't help but stop and wrapped his robe tightly.

Looking back at the spacious, vermilion gate of the Lin family, Shi Xianqian suddenly felt a little happy in his heart, followed by fear. The military intelligence department of the Taiping Army was not conspicuous when it was first established, but since this period of time, the ability of the military intelligence department has been known by the generals of the righteous army. If he was blinded by lard for a while and accepted the benefits of the Lin family, he would have been known by the people of the MI......

Thinking about the consequences of General Tiangong's anger, Shi Xianqian couldn't help but shudder.

Thankfully, I made a wise decision.

Thinking like this, he only felt that even his steps were much lighter, he touched the brocade box in his arms, beckoned a few guards, and hurried back towards the Taiping Army camp.

At the same time, the senior management of the Lin family began to urgently discuss the news leaked by Shi Xianqian.

"The Taiping Righteous Army is leaving Wu'an!"

The head of the family, Lin Anhe, the five elders of the Lin family, the chief housekeeper of the Lin family, the general of the protection army, Lin Anluo, and the young master of the Lin family, Lin Yunwen, all fell into contemplation.

The discord between the Good Friends Association and the Taiping Army, and even almost infighting, could not hide the Lin family's deep-rooted tentacles in Wu'an. However, no one thought that the Taiping army left Wu'an because they were afraid of the Good Friends Society. There must have been some other serious change that prompted the Taiping Army to suddenly make this decision.

"Perhaps, the Empire's counterinsurgency army has arrived ahead of schedule!"

This was the inference of the Lin family's big housekeeper, and it was the only reason he could think of.

Lin An and Lao Mou were very calculating, of course, he had also thought about this, but he undoubtedly thought deeper, shook his head and said: "Before Wu'an City was surrounded, the decisive battle between the empire and the tile thorn had not yet begun. No matter how quickly the battle ends, the drawn army should not be able to catch up now. Besides, if this is the case, why did the Taiping army march eastward? Their only possible way to survive is in the south! ”

Lin Yunwen and Lin An were slightly speechless.

They had to admit that the analysis of the head of the family was also very reasonable. To the east, whether it is to fight Dongguan or hide in the Bayan Mountains, it is a dead end.

Could it be that the eastward advance is just a pretense, and it is a maze of the old cloth?

It doesn't look like it!

The people of the Lin family couldn't analyze it, and they fell into confusion for a while. But one thing is certain, no matter what happens outside, as long as the empire's counterinsurgency army does not reach the city for a day, the Lin family will maintain its current state and will not move lightly. Moreover, as soon as the Taiping army left, without the suppression of this group of sane rebels, the order in Wu'an City would inevitably deteriorate rapidly. And the malice and greed of the good friends towards them, the Lin family had already known from the first day of Wu'an's city break.

Be sure to raise your vigilance to the highest level to guard against the possible attacks of those thieves!

………

The Taiping Righteous Army is leaving Wu'an and attacking Dongguan Mansion!

Although the Taiping army had tried its best to control the news, the general mobilization of the whole army, the collection of supplies, and the forcible kidnapping of people, the series of movements was too great to be blocked. The first two days were fine, but by the afternoon of the third day, all kinds of rumors and speculations spread wildly in Wu'an City.

At this point, the rebels who were about to evacuate did not bother to care, and began to make final preparations for the strategic shift.

After more than two days of fermentation, coupled with the Taiping Army's obvious big moves beyond the necessary, the Good Friends Association faintly sensed something and began to stare at their actions. However, not to mention that the Taiping army is really bent on advancing eastward, even if the Good Friends Association realizes that danger is coming, they also receive the news that the "Qinghe Alert Division" has rushed to quell the rebellion in advance, are they willing to abandon this Wu'an City?

Wang Huifang doesn't have that courage!

Therefore, he could only stick to the original plan when he was already feeling uneasy. After handing over the supplies, the Taiping army slowly opened the east gate of Wu'an on the morning of the new day, and marched all the way to the east.

In the rising sun, the Taiping army gradually drifted away.

Inexplicably, Wang Huifang suddenly felt a little flustered. (To be continued.) )
