Chapter 211: Attacking Xuzhou City
Miss Zhou's meaning is obvious, this is to let him directly attach himself to Mu Changan and follow the steps of this 'opener of a new era'.
To put it bluntly, it is to surrender directly.
Surrender?
How is it possible, he is the head of the Zhong family, one of the three major forces in Xuzhou City, and he has more than a thousand soldiers with strong combat effectiveness under his hands, and he can't find an opponent who can match him for thousands of miles around.
With such a strong strength, how can you say surrender and surrender.
What's more, all this is just what Miss Zhou said herself, whether it's true or not, no one knows, this kind of mysterious and mysterious thing is really hard to believe.
"Master Zhong still needs to make a choice early, if he waits for the people of the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce to occupy the southern area of the city to form a new three-legged trend, even if he chooses to be attached at that time, the benefits will be much less. The veiled woman left a sentence and quietly left.
Zhong Hong looked at the back of the woman in the veil leaving, squinted his eyes and called a subordinate, and ordered: "Send someone to keep an eye on Miss Zhou, and come back immediately to report if there is any movement." ”
"Yes!"
......
In addition to the Zhong family, the rest of the Zhao family is not much better, and they are in a hurry to hold private meetings everywhere; as for the Sun family, it is even more uncomfortable, I heard that Sun Qinchong, the head of the Sun family, killed three concubines in a row after hearing the news, which is enough to see his anger.
However, before the three major forces in Xuzhou City made a move, there was a sudden enemy attack outside the South City Gate, and it was still the army of Yongle City, but the number of people changed from one hundred to four hundred, of which three hundred were previous prisoners.
"Poof~"
Sun Qinchong spurted out a mouthful of old blood, fell to the sky, and fell into a coma.
"Too ...... It's so shameless!" On the south city gate, another general of the Sun family pointed at Mu Changan below, his hands were trembling, and he wanted to kill him on the spot.
Mu Changan didn't care at all, he rode on the white horse with a smile on his face, and shouted at the top: "You guys surrender quickly, or don't blame Young Master Ben for being cold-blooded and beat you to the ground!"
It's really too easy to fight, at least for Mu Changan.
Fight a group of prisoners, then recruit, send a month's salary, sign a contract, and immediately use it as your own soldiers, and the momentum is absolutely high.
No problem.
The guards on the city gate were very angry, but Mu Changan, who was shameless, simply didn't say anything, turned around and left, too lazy to care.
In fact, the city wall of the south city gate is not high, it is only five meters high, a master of the level of Mu Changan can go up with a jump, although ordinary soldiers can also do it, but there are soldiers with bows and arrows on the city wall, if you rush up like this, there will definitely be casualties, which is not in line with Mu Changan's way of fighting.
"Hurry up and think of a way, how to take this southern city gate!" Mu Chang'an brought Mengcheng and Zhang Mingyang to attack this time, they are considered military generals, this positioning is quite accurate, but since they are all military generals, the method of attacking the city is basically one, directly, how can there be any other way.
Seeing that Meng Cheng and Zhang Mingyang failed to give a plan, Mu Changan also shook his head, Yongle City has developed to the present, and the shortcomings have also come out, that is, there is an extreme shortage of talents, such as fighting, and there is not even a military division.
"It looks like it's time to recruit a new wave of talent. Mu Changan thought to himself.
Meng Cheng and Zhang Mingyang naturally didn't know that they were disgusted by Mu Changan like this, and they were thinking about strategies and thinking about ways with sad faces.
And at this time, the city gates suddenly opened......
What's going on?
I saw a small group of people running out of it, led by a soldier desperately waving to Mu Chang'an.
Where would Mu Changan miss the opportunity, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, rush!"
Immediately, he took the lead in riding a white horse, and the tiger and tiger who danced with the sword of life and death in his hand were vigorous, defending the city wall and shooting cold arrows down.
"Damn! release the arrows, release the arrows quickly, and shoot the arrows with spiritual power!" The general of the Sun family obviously found that someone had opened the city gate without authorization, and immediately ordered the soldiers above to shoot arrows, and then sent someone down to reclose the gate.
'Whoosh~~'
Arrows were shot from above, but none of them carried spiritual power, and the gap between the heads was too big, so they were deliberately letting Mu Chang'an and them in.
Mu Changan was overjoyed, knowing that this group of soldiers must also have the intention of surrendering, so he sped up and rushed in first.
The city gate was opened, the defenders on the city wall deliberately released water, and the army of 400 people drove straight in, but naturally there was no suspense, and the south gate was taken in minutes, and the general who wanted to escape was captured.
"Surrender or not?" asked Mu Changan.
"I'm the general of the Sun family, how can I vote for you!" The general surnamed Sun was quite tough.
Mu Changan expressed his admiration and waved his hand: "Pull it down and kill it." ”
The general surnamed Sun was shocked: "No...... Don't, I surrender, surrender!"
"Surrender is not something you can vote for if you want to, goodbye. Mu Changan smiled and watched the general surnamed Sun being dragged away, turned around and began to rectify the prisoners.
A total of 500 people surrendered this time, plus 400 of his own people, Mu Changan's strength now reached more than 900 people.
Among these more than 900 people, 800 of them were prisoners, and in order to let them know the benefits of surrendering, Mu Changan took the lead in giving them a month's monthly salary, calculated at 600 per person, a total of 480,000.
Ok, small amount.
Of course, the monthly salary is signed with the contract, and the soldier's contract is for one year, which is the same as a normal labor contract, and after one year, it depends on whether to continue to sign with the soldier.
This not only prevented the soldiers from eating and waiting for death here in Mu Chang'an, but also prevented the possibility of the soldiers rebelling.
It can be said that in the current Cursed God Continent, only Mu Changan can do this.
Who allowed him to restore the deity to the covenant?
This golden finger is so useful.
After the rectification was done, the entire Sun family over there was in chaos.
There are only more than 1,000 soldiers under the jurisdiction of the Sun family, and now nearly eighty percent of them have been swept over by Mu Chang'an, and the entire Sun family is considered to be seriously injured, and it is too late to make up for it.
Anyway, now that the spiritual energy of the mainland is exhausted, the world is so big that you can go everywhere, it is easy to find a place to occupy the city as the king, why bother to fight with Mu Changan here.
Sun Qinchong, the head of the Sun family, also thinks this way, this failure is an inevitable event, not only is his decision-making mistake, but more importantly, the other party is too fierce, and it was a wrong decision to provoke the other party from the beginning.
As for the foundations that are currently operating in Xuzhou City, in fact, he doesn't value them, anyway, as long as there are spirit stones, he can make a comeback anywhere.
Therefore, Sun Qin Chong took advantage of the fact that Mu Chang'an was still collecting the soldiers who surrendered at the city gate, and hurriedly gathered the remaining soldiers to prepare to escape, before that, he also bled heavily, gave these soldiers 500 spirit stones each as a comfort, and declared that as long as he was obedient, he would immediately distribute the arrears of the previous monthly salary after finding a new place of survival.
Barely appeasing the remaining soldiers, Sun Qinchong secretly took his clansmen and a group of his subordinates and began to flee.
When Mu Changan got the news, he was a little surprised, surprised by Sun Qinchong's decisiveness, Xuzhou City, which had been in business for so many years, said to give up and gave up, but unfortunately he was too stingy to be a man, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to let him in so easily.
In fact, Mu Chang'an's approach was the same as that of the Qiqiao Sect before digging up the disciples of the Fengyue Sect with spirit stones at the foot of the Fengyue Sect, using the spirit stones to dig up the disciples of the sect and reducing the strength of the Fengyue Sect itself, thus gradually eating away the entire Fengyue Sect.
If it weren't for Mu Changan's accidental intrusion into the Qiuchu Plains at that time, the Fengyue Sect would have been destroyed.
To put it bluntly, in today's Cursed God Continent, as long as there are spirit stones, you are equivalent to mastering the key to success.
"Run away and don't chase, surrender and don't kill, this is the sect master of Young Master Ben, let them go. Mu Changan decided to give up chasing Sun Qin Chong, of course, the more important reason was that he got the news that many troops suddenly appeared in the adjacent areas of the north and west of the city and the south of the city, obviously this is another Zhong and Zhao two families in the embankment of him.
Mu Changan didn't dare to leave with his troops like this, for fear that as soon as his front foot left, the place where his back foot had finally knocked down would be copied.
So this Sun Qin Chong, just go.
It is important to stabilize the situation first.
And just when Mu Changan began to occupy the territory that once belonged to Sun Qinchong, Sun Qinchong and his party, who had run away twenty miles away, were also forced to stop.
for they were stopped.
The other party is the Zhong family, who is also one of the four families in Xuzhou City.
"Old man Zhong Hong, you are going to put the old man to death!" Sun Qinchong rode on a horse and looked at an elegant middle-aged man opposite with a gloomy face.
He is the head of the Zhong family, Zhong Hong.
"Brother Sun, what you said is wrong, Brother Xian just heard that Brother Sun was in distress and came to help, how can it be said that Brother Sun was killed?" Zhong Hong said with a kind smile on his face.
He is indeed happy now, because Miss Zhou's prediction has come true, and Sun Qinchong really took the initiative to run......
It's not in vain that he took the lead in sending people to block here, if he can take down Sun Qin Chong, wouldn't all the spirit stones gathered by the Sun family over the years belong to him?
Sun Qinchong naturally didn't believe Zhong Hong's words, but the current situation was critical, if it was delayed, in case Mu Changan chased after him, then he would fall into a situation of being caught between the front and back, and he would die for life.
Therefore, it is necessary to solve the obstacles in front of us as soon as possible.
Beat.
It must be the next policy, the other side has 500 people, and it is not an opponent at all.
It can only be negotiated peacefully.
Thinking of this, Sun Qinchong said in a deep voice: "100,000 spirit stones, let the old man live." ”
"Oops...... Where did Brother Sun say, how could the head of the Sun family, one of the four great families in Xuzhou, be worth a mere 100,000 spirit stones......" Zhong Hong teased with a smile.
"Five hundred thousand, that's the highest price. Sun Qinchong hesitated for a moment and directly raised the price by five times.
Now is not the time to bargain.
500,000, this price is indeed not small, Zhong Hong was a little moved, but he hesitated after remembering the words of Miss Zhou before leaving.
"Zhong Hong, this is already the highest price that the old man can give, if you refuse to let the old man live, then you will work hard, and the old man will also break out by himself!" Sun Qinchong was also ruthless, it was a big deal to give up everyone under his hands and fight to the death with Zhong Hong.
Zhong Hong was even more hesitant at this time, and Miss Zhou's words surrounded his ears, making him hesitate to make up his mind.
In the end, when Sun Qinchong was about to lose his patience, Zhong Hong finally nodded and agreed: "600,000, I'll let you go." ”
"Deal!"
......
In the direction of less than two miles away from them, a veiled woman quietly watched Sun Qinchong lead her men away, and sighed lightly: "Originally, you could have a better future, why should you be blinded by the immediate interests. ”
