Chapter 38: The Rebels Enter the City
Hearing the news, all the people in Pingyin County were numb. The army of this court actually ran away directly. As I said before, if the rebels arrive, they will rush forward to fight.
That's why the family in Pingyin County contributed so many resources, just because they were afraid that the rebels would come and directly ransack them. After all, sometimes, the imperial army still pays attention to a little food, and the rebels don't care about this.
The result is now good, and the imperial army has fled.
Some people in Pingyin County don't know what to do, if they want to resist and close the city gates, they can resist for a while. But how long this time can be is a little unclear.
After all, there is no army in Pingyin County, only the county government's officials and fast catchers, and the equipment for defending the city is also very simple. It is very difficult to resist the surging rebels.
And there is another problem, if they resist so stubbornly to the end, if the city is broken in the end, then the entire Pingyin County will definitely be looted.
Judging from the news from other towns, as long as there is resistance, the fate of the whole town is to be burned and plundered. That's how so many refugees came about.
If you don't resist, just Kaesong surrenders, and the end may be better. But it's just a little better, those rebels have conquered the city, and they haven't thought about business or anything like that, and the most important purpose is all kinds of resources.
Pingyin County didn't know what to do, both options were very difficult, and they seemed to be dead words. It's just that one dies standing and the other kneels.
Ten miles away.
"The imperial army has withdrawn?" Tan Zhen'an sat on the horse and looked at the spies below and asked.
"Yes, they have all been evacuated, and in recent days, they have taken a lot of supplies from Pingyin County." The spy bowed his head and reported.
"What a group of bad breeds, with this kind of guts, they dare to lead the army to fight!" Hua Shizhong sneered.
"If it weren't for this group of people, how would we be able to get on the ground. And if they fight against us based on Pingyin County, even if we can win in the end, we will suffer heavy losses. ”
Tan Zhen'an looked at the looming city in the distance, and with a wave of his hand, the whole army began to speed up.
Since the imperial army is not here, Pingyin County is already in their pocket. As for whether Pingyin County resists or not, there is no difference in his eyes.
Since he planned to loot Pingyin County, Tan Zhen'an had already made all preparations.
The people of Pingyin County were still wavering, the gate of Nancheng had already been opened, and the officials guarding the city were killed by seven or eight people, and they all surrendered.
It's not okay if you don't surrender, a master of the marrow realm, for these servants who practice the flesh realm at most, it is really a crushing existence. I don't know when, there are rebel people lurking in Pingyin County, and they explode directly at this moment.
If the county government is resolute enough to defend the city, it will naturally send heavy troops to guard the gates. But this kind of forward-looking mentality, the defense of the city gate has naturally become a joke.
Chen Fei stayed in his courtyard, listening to the commotion outside, and his heart was a little irritable.
A few days ago, I thought that the rebels would not come, but now they appear directly in front of me.
The infirmary was closed when it was reported that the rebels had arrived. Chen Fei originally thought about whether to go to Zhang's house to hide for a while, but after thinking about it, he still didn't go.
When the rebels entered the city, the biggest target was these families. Hiding inside, Chen Fei was easily affected by the pond fish. And the Zhang family didn't let Chen Fei go to the mansion, and obviously didn't think about sheltering Chen Fei.
As for whether the rebels will loot civilians, it depends on how high the lower limit of these people is. It's really not good, Chen Fei can only shoot one shot for another.
At this time, the effect of the disguise technique is manifested, at least it will not be recognized.
"In the eyes of the master, this disguise technique is estimated to be a little flawed. If you have the opportunity in the future, you still have to find a stronger transfiguration technique to learn. ”
Chen Fei swirled thoughts in his mind, returned to the Dan room, came to a basin, and buried his whole face in the cold water.
"Pure Heart Recipe XP +1... +1 XP..."
It is not troublesome to wash your hair with cold water, but it is a bit cumbersome to wash your hair all the time, and finally Chen Fei found such a way, hold his breath, bury his head in cold water, and after a period of time, the experience value will increase once.
By now, Chen Fei had cultivated the Pure Heart Technique to the proficient level, approaching the position of consummation.
Under the effect of the Pure Heart Formula, Chen Fei's mood has become more calm and calm, and when he encounters things, he can make decisions faster.
Of course, Chen Fei is cultivating so hard now, and his biggest purpose is still thinking that if Pingyin County can't stay, Chen Fei will travel a long way to the Xianyun Sword Sect.
Let's not say whether he can worship the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, but at least the stable environment there can allow Chen Fei to continue to cultivate and grow. And in such a big city, the level of pills and cheats must be much higher than that of Pingyin County.
When Chen Fei forced himself to cultivate calmly, the yamen and the family in Pingyin County were gathering together at this moment, looking at Tan Zhen'an in front of him.
Different from the happy relationship between the imperial court and the army, the people in Pingyin County were quite nervous and restrained when they faced Tan Zhen'an at this moment.
"It seems that everyone has arrived, so I'll say a few words."
Tan Zhen'an looked at everyone, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "Here, what is my purpose, you also know very well what I want to do." ”
"When it comes to the general's request, we will do our best to meet it." The county magistrate looked at Tan Zhen'an, with a hint of sycophancy on his face.
"With your words, then I will be relieved, otherwise who will not be able to do it at that time, and say that we have not explained it in advance."
Tan Zhen'an glanced past the county order, looked at the people of various families, and said, "Zhao family, 100,000 taels of silver, 1,000 pieces of fine iron blades." The Li family has 80,000 taels of silver and 1,000 pieces of half-length rattan armor. Zhou ......"
As Tan Zhen'an reported the numbers one by one, the faces of the people of various families turned pale for a while.
This is simply to wipe out all their old bottoms, leaving no room at all.
"My Zhou family has been operating improperly in recent years, and I can't come up with so much money, so I hope the general will be accommodating."
"Yes, my Zheng family is just a small family, where is there a ......"
"Whew!"
The light of the knife flashed through the lobby, and before everyone could understand what was happening, they were drenched in blood. The two people who spoke just now have been separated.
"This is not a negotiation, it is an order. What else can't be done, can be said now! ”
Hua Shizhong slowly put the blade back into the scabbard, his eyes looking at the people of various families, with a playful smile on his face.
"Pay the money in two days, and hand over the supplies in ten days. Let's disperse. Tan Zhen'an waved his hand and left the lobby, this conversation was indeed a process of giving orders.
The people of various families glanced at each other, especially at the corpse on the ground, and couldn't help but shudder.
If you don't agree with each other, you will draw a knife and kill people, and you won't even say superfluous words.
Everyone returned to their families and passed on the story. Now it's just buying life with money, and if you don't want to take the money, the end has already appeared in the county office.
