Chapter 141: Windfall (Second Update)
Linjiang County, four city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest, gunpowder smoke everywhere, war is pervasive.
In less than an hour, the five thousand dragon and tiger elites led by Nie Zheng captured the Linjiang city defense like a bamboo.
At this moment, the four-way dragon and tiger army, all of which entered the city with great momentum, pursued and cleared the Dayue city defense soldiers who fled from the city tower.
Linjiang County was not an important city in the first place, so Sangkang, the king of Dayue, sent less than a thousand Dayue soldiers to garrison here.
Just now, Nie Zheng, Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie, Su Dongshan and other four people, when attacking the city, all used rocket launchers, light machine guns and other weapons, and bombed the city defenses everywhere, and on the spot, the Dayue soldiers who defended the city suffered more than half of the casualties.
The remaining hundreds of Yue soldiers, seeing that the enemy was fierce, and the firearms used in the siege process were extremely ferocious, and they were completely frightened by the arms and weapons in the hands of Nie Zheng and others.
All of a sudden, hundreds of Da Yue soldiers who were lucky enough to escape from the city defense rushed to the rest of the city gates in horror, wanting to escape from other places.
However, Nie Zheng had long expected that the enemy would make this move, so long before the siege, he sent leaders such as Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie and Su Dongshan to block all the ways out of the entire Linjiang County.
With the momentum of thunder, it quickly captured the east gate of Linjiang County.
Nie Zheng had just led his men and horses into the city, and on the spot, he ordered Xue Changsheng who was following behind: "Xue Changsheng, you are now leading five hundred men and horses to occupy the eastern city defense!" From now on, no one will be allowed to enter or leave without my orders! ”
After hearing the order, Xue Changsheng was stunned, and he gave the order on the spot: "Obey, alliance leader!" ”
With that, he immediately led five hundred men and horses and quickly rushed to the top of the East City Tower.
As soon as he ascended the city tower, Xue Changsheng loudly ordered the defense.
"Wang Mazi, you take two hundred people to the right city wall, Li Ergou, you also lead two hundred people to the left city wall, everyone first clean up the battlefield, see if there is any living mouth in the corpses of these Dayue natives, if there is, kill them on the spot!"
"Yes, Hall Master!"
In an instant, hundreds of dragon and tiger elites immediately searched and inspected above the city defense to see if there were any living mouths left, as long as it was found that there were some Dayue soldiers who were not dead or were still groaning and screaming above the city defense, these dragon and tiger elites immediately raised their long knives and cut off their heads mercilessly.
At the same time, Xue Changsheng took the remaining 100 men and horses, carried more than a dozen Makqin heavy machine guns, and quickly deployed all of them on the city defense.
After Nie Zheng ordered Xue Changsheng to occupy the eastern city defense, he and Niu Meng led 1,500 men and horses and continued to rush towards the center of the county.
Soon, Nie Zheng met people and horses from three other directions at the intersection of the streets of the county seat.
After seeing Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie, Su Dongshan and others who were attacking the other three city defenses coming, Nie Zheng immediately said loudly: "How is it over there, is everything going well?" ”
Hearing this, the three hall masters hurriedly turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to Nie Zheng's horse, and bowed their hands and said: "Alliance master, at present, the three city defenses of the south gate, the west gate, and the north gate of Linjiang County have all been occupied by us, according to the alliance leader's previous plan, thirteen heavy machine guns have been deployed on each city defense, leaving five hundred men and horses to defend!" ”
Nie Zheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, the brothers are doing a good job!" Next, it's time for us to have a game of cat and mouse with the Dayue monkeys hiding in the city. ”
Speaking of this, Nie Zheng turned his head and shouted, "Where is Jia Xiufang?" ”
"The subordinates are here!"
After hearing Nie Zheng's call, Jia Xiufang hurriedly jumped off the horse with the support of a minion, and then trotted all the way to Nie Zheng. "I wonder what the alliance leader commands?"
Nie Zheng looked down at him, and said sharply: "Xiufang, you are a literati, you have read the economy, and you are well versed in the way of governing and reassuring the people, from now on, the important task of appeasing the people of Linjiang County will be entrusted to you, I hope you will not let me down!" ”
Hearing this, Jia Xiufang took a deep breath and said with a solemn expression: "The subordinates will definitely live up to the trust of the alliance leader!" ”
Nie Zheng took a deep look at him, and then ordered Shi Zheng and the others who were standing in front of the horse: "Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie, Su Dongshan, the three of you will each lead 900 men and horses, block all the streets and lanes in the city, and before dawn, you must find out all the remnants of Dayue who are hiding in the city!" ”
As soon as these words came out, all the leaders gave up their hands.
Suddenly, Xu Shijie couldn't help but ask: "Alliance leader, if you catch those Dayue natives who are hiding, will you kill them on the spot?" ”
Nie Zheng lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Try to capture it alive, if you kill it on the spot, I am afraid that it will frighten the people in the city." ”
Speaking of this, a cold smile flashed in Nie Zheng's eyes, and he said lightly: "When it is noon tomorrow, we will escort all the captured Dayue people to the city and parade through the streets to arouse the anger of the people." When the time is ripe, we will behead all these Dayue thieves who used to fish and flesh the people in Linjiang City and enslave the Han people in front of tens of millions of Han people, so as to vent the hatred of the people! ”
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up and they applauded.
A moment later, the three leaders, Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie, and Su Dongshan, each took nine hundred dragon and tiger elites to various blocks and lanes in the city to conduct a blockade search.
Looking at the backs of Shi Zheng and the others leaving in a hurry, Niu Meng, who was guarding behind Nie Zheng, muttered with a disgruntled face: "Alliance leader, why don't you arrange for your subordinates to search for those Dayue thieves?" ”
Nie Zheng turned his head to look at him and smiled: "If you go, who will be by your side to protect me?" ”
Niu Meng suddenly came to his senses, slapped his forehead again and again, and said, "Hey, I'm really confused, I actually forgot the task that Miss gave me......"
Nie Zheng shook his head and smiled: "Let's go, let's go to the county government and see if the indigenous lord who is powerful in Linjiang County is still hiding in the county office." ”
"Brothers, follow me to the county office!"
Nie Zheng gave an order, and suddenly, the remaining three hundred dragon and tiger elites present followed Nie Zheng's horse with an excited expression, and went straight to Linjiang County.
At this time, it was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening, and the sky was already dark.
Nie Zheng led three hundred men and horses to run through the streets of the city, and in the entire county, except for their men and horses, there was no strange figure to be seen.
It may be that when Nie Zheng led the men and horses to attack the city before, there was too much movement, causing the people and residents in Linjiang County to close their doors and windows, and the black lights were blind, so frightened that there was no movement at all.
It is clear that war is undoubtedly a terrible disaster for these ordinary people who only want to worry about food and clothing.
No matter who the attacking team is, for them, their hearts will only be filled with fear and fear.
The long streets, dark and silent.
The shops and storefronts on both sides of the street have long been firmly closed, except for some secluded and dark lanes, from time to time there are bursts of cat barking and dog barking, otherwise, it will really make people wonder if Linjiang County under the cover of this night is an empty dead city?
Nie Zheng sat on horseback, looking at the quiet and deserted scene in the city, and his mood was inevitably a little low.
Reborn in this strange ancient world for so long, he had never seen the lively streets and markets of this ancient time with his own eyes.
I remembered that when I was on the earth in my previous life, I watched a lot of costume film and television dramas, and the city market in it, whether it was day or night, was bustling everywhere, full of people, a piece of gorgeous lights, warblers and swallows, and the scene was very lively.
But now, hey......
Thinking of this, Nie Zheng sighed lightly and secretly decided: "In the future, as long as the cities under my Nie Zheng rule, I must let them prosper and sing day and night!" ”
…………
Linjiang County Ya.
Three hundred dragon and tiger elites, under the order of Niu Meng, spread out like a tide, surrounding this magnificently built county government.
At this moment, Nie Zheng beckoned, and Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, who were following closely behind, immediately rushed to him and carefully helped him off the horse.
Looking at the two tightly closed county government gates in front of him, Nie Zheng said lightly, "Break the door!" ”
"Yes, Alliance Leader!"
After receiving the order, Niu Meng immediately carried two giant hammers, "kicked and pedaled" over the stone steps, rushed to the vermilion gate, and with a burst of shouts, on the spot, the two firmly closed thick gates were blasted open by him with a hammer.
"Alliance leader, please!"
After breaking open the gate of the county government, Niu Meng stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.
Nie Zheng shook his head and smiled, and then under the escort of a group of minions, he quickly stepped into the county office.
After entering the county office, there was no need for Nie Zheng's orders, there was a group of wolf-like minions, carrying cold blades, and murderously searched around the entire county government to see if there were any enemies hidden inside. At the same time, they were also responsible for searching for gold and silver in the county office, because it was a special order from the alliance leader.
Sure enough, after a while, I saw Zhao Hu running to Nie Zheng with an excited expression, and said excitedly: "Alliance leader, I found it, I found it, it really has miles, and it is in the study in the backyard of the county government." ”
Hearing this, Nie Zheng smiled faintly and said, "A lot?" ”
Zhao Hu nodded and said, "At least a thousand taels." ”
Nie Zheng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Take me to see it." ”
"Yes, Alliance Leader!"
Under the guidance of Zhao Hu, Nie Zheng led several cronies of Heifeng Village and went straight to the backyard of the county government.
When he came to the backyard, Nie Zheng entered the study that Zhao Hu said, and sure enough, in this spacious and luxurious study, he found a secret door.
Pushing open the secret door, there is actually a dark warehouse with a radius of less than three meters, and inside the dark warehouse, there are two large wooden boxes.
Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng forcibly endured the excitement in his heart, and quickly opened the wooden box, and suddenly, rows of yellow gold ingots were neatly stacked inside.
