Chapter 303: Plunder

The magistrate hid in the cellar, looking excited and a little depressed, pacing back and forth, muttering something in his mouth.

Most of his men gathered in the back, and there was a little horror on their faces.

They prayed silently in their hearts, those mud-legged people don't find here, don't find here, they don't want to die yet.

The process of attacking the county seat was very smooth, it was just to open a city gate, and it was too simple for Gao Ninglai.

The gates were opened, and the captain of the guard entered, but anyone who dared to stand in the way was killed with his guns.

With the slow advance, the slogan of surrender and death was constantly shouted, and in less than an hour, the resistance of the entire county was disintegrated.

Gao Ning's purpose was very clear, he led the team straight to the county office, and after the armory, granary and silver warehouse were all emptied, he called the guards under his command to kidnap all the soldiers and officials in the entire county.

The common people were panicked, most of them hid in their homes, and occasionally there were hooligans and ruffians, and those who wanted to take advantage of the chaos were directly taken down by the escorts.

It took the longest time to move the food, but even then it took two hours to pack everything.

As the escort slowly withdrew from the county seat, a few family members who had been deliberately let go rushed back to the prefect's yamen in fear.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

A sudden sound overhead startled everyone in the cellar, and his men hurriedly drew their knives and guns and aimed them at the only entrance above, looking a little nervous.

The magistrate was awakened violently, and involuntarily shivered, and just wanted to retreat, but reacted violently, this turned out to be the voice of his entourage.

"Don't panic first, it seems to be two!"

Lord Zhixian took a deep breath, patted the subordinate next to him, and motioned for him to ask.

The subordinate swallowed a mouthful of saliva and raised his voice: "Who are you?" ”

"My lord, I'm the second, those rebels didn't stay, they just plundered and then withdrew, now it's safe, you can come out!"

Lord Zhixian said excitedly: "Is this true? ”

"It's true, yes, if you report to the adult, please come out first!"

Hearing this affirmative answer, everyone in the cellar breathed a sigh of relief.

The magistrate calmed down, adjusted his complexion back to a state of calmness, and just turned around to remind him, he found that his subordinates who were still a little ridiculous just now became righteous and awe-inspiring one by one.

He couldn't help but roll his eyes, doesn't the eldest brother know the second brother? What to pretend in front of me.

But things have come to this point, and it is already very good to be able to leave a superficial state, Lord Zhixian shook his head, and slowly climbed out of the cellar under the protection of his subordinates.

The backyard of the county yamen was originally for the county officials to live in, and there was no such strange escape place before, but later because the Shandong region was too chaotic, even the officials had to be worried.

So in order to save his life and make himself more at ease, he specially found a group of people to dig three secret rooms, two of which were distributed in the room, leading directly to the back house, and the other was directly arranged in the kitchen, just digging the cellar a little bigger.

This time he escaped in a hurry, and there were a lot of people around him, so he could only choose the biggest one to lie down, and the other two were still hiding his family, which had plenty of water and food, as long as he could endure loneliness, it would not be a big problem to hide for a month, so before he figured out the situation, the county magistrate was not ready to call his family out.

The second watched the old man come out from below, and finally showed a hint of joy on his face, and hurriedly saluted: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master!" Although our Jimo County is outnumbered, in the face of the rebels, we also have to forget our lives and fight bravely, and finally after a stalemate between the two sides for a few hours, this group of only more than 3,000 rebels was repulsed.

Although we also lost some of our energy, we were able to save the city, which is a great credit! ”

Hearing him like this, Lord Zhixian's face darkened, and he said angrily: "You are really a different person, when has this been, you are still playing with me, hurry up and what happened!" ”

Er hurriedly nodded: "The rebels are really bold, after they entered the county seat, they did not harass the people, but came directly to the county government and the four warehouses, I went there before I came back, and found that the granaries and silver warehouses were all wide open, and the things inside were cleaned."

There is no trace of the weapons in the armory! ”

The magistrate was first surprised, and then rejoiced.

I heard that these mud legs really haven't seen the world, it's not good to rob something, they actually robbed the treasury of the government.

The grain depot in the county town was sold short by him as early as two years ago, and all the old sesame seeds and rotten grain were piled up inside, which no one could eat and could be used as feed.

There was nothing in the armory, but after I took office, I specially asked someone to get a batch of wooden sticks, painted them, and pretended to be swords, guns, swords, and halberds.

Even if it is taken away, it is still burned as firewood.

And after being robbed this time, the problems that occurred in Curry before will be written off, and anything that happens can be blamed on this group of rebels.

This city is well attacked, it is so well attacked!

Thinking of this, the county magistrate had some eyebrows fluttering, and the second one couldn't bear to look at him, and after hesitating for a while, he still said: "Master, although there are not many things in the silver vault, at most one hundred and eighty taels of silver, but they didn't let it go before, and two boxes of gold were found in the secret vault later, and all of them were taken away!" ”

The county magistrate was stupid in an instant.

"Ahh

The magistrate was stunned for a moment, and then collapsed directly, his eyes were red, and he kept shouting, eager to roll on the ground.

Thousands of miles of officials are just for money, and they have worked hard for several years to be the county magistrate, and they have tried their best to resell their property and loot the people, so they have accumulated two boxes of gold, and now they have been killed by these people and even the pot has been taken away!

This is not a way to live!

The magistrates are about to go crazy.

"There is no way to do without, there is no way to do it, I dare to rebel, how much sin is there in this world, no, go and call someone to prepare a horse, I will go to Laizhou Mansion to report to the prefect!"

Seeing the state of the county adult, the second was also a little unbearable.

"Master, we don't have manpower anymore, all the soldiers, plus the prisoners in the prison, and even the jailers have been kidnapped by the rebels! Now in the entire county, there are only a few of us left, and there are no soldiers guarding the city gate! Now we don't have the strength to guard, and if a group of bandits suddenly comes, I'm afraid the consequences will be unimaginable...... My lord, you better find a way as soon as possible! ”

Lord Zhixian was stunned!
