Volume 4 Southwest Raiders Chapter 398 Windfall (I)

In just one day, Jinguan City has completely been reduced to a purgatory-like existence on earth.

The west gate was broken, so that the last bit of fighting spirit of the defenders of the city was completely dissipated, and when the officers and soldiers were killed, they were no different from ordinary people, either kneeling on the spot and surrendering, or turning around and fleeing for their lives.

And no matter what choice they make, their result is the same, and that is death.

As early as more than half a month ago, when he ordered the siege of the city, Sun Ning had already issued the order to destroy the city and slaughter the city, which was also one of the reasons why all the soldiers and horses could maintain their vigorous combat strength.

Therefore, when the city is broken, all the soldiers and horses naturally rush into the city, either for revenge, or for the robbery of property, to vent their desires...... Anyway, none of them are soft-hearted.

As long as it is a living person who appears in front of them, whether it is a soldier or a civilian, it is a dead end.

After cutting down all the targets they could see, the officers and soldiers would divide into small teams and go deep into all corners of the city, setting fire to people, looting and committing violence, and carrying out carnivals that only belonged to them.

When tens of thousands of people, no, it should be said that tens of thousands of red-eyed beasts were destroying this fallen city uncontrollably, Jinguan, this famous city of Sichuan and Shu was naturally ravaged, and the people among them suffered unimaginable disasters.

The bodies of the slain were everywhere on the road alone, lying there in all directions, and no one cared.

Many houses and shops were burned in the fire, and the corpses were turned into charcoal, and all the belongings inside were looted.

Only some of the good-looking young women may be able to save their lives, but they will never end much better than death......

Fight for the city, kill the city!

This is a feeling born from the heart when Sun Ning officially stepped into Jinguan City after dawn and looked at the fireworks ruins and corpses in the city.

And the consequences of all this, in the final analysis, are inseparable from him, because it was his order that led to this massacre.

Regret it?

When this thought suddenly came to mind, Sun Ning quickly denied it.

War has always been cruel, and although the slaughter of the city is not necessary, he has given them a chance.

Before the siege of the city, as long as someone chooses to open the city and surrender, even if it is just to open the city gate and enlarge the army to enter, the situation will be different later.

But the soldiers and civilians of the city chose to defend to the death, and that was the price they had to pay.

Riding a horse slowly through the street strewn with corpses, Sun Ning's gaze had surrendered farther away, and he asked left and right: "Have you sent people to guard all the warehouses?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, after entering the city, the minister has already sent people to directly control the warehouses." Xiao Keding was the first to respond, "And it was also found over there that someone from the Tang Sect tried to set fire to the warehouse, and it was killed by our soldiers on the spot, and there was not much damage to all kinds of materials." ”

"Well, that's good." Sun Ning nodded in satisfaction.

Xiao Keding quickly improved and matured in the battles that followed him all the way to the Northern Expedition, and now he is a qualified general who can take charge of himself.

It can be said that in terms of ability, he is far above his father, Dingxi Hou Xiao Changyong.

Without Sun Ning's orders, he knew that outside of the slaughter of the city, the baggage of the warehouses in the city was the most important thing, and it must not be intruded by the soldiers who acted at will.

Xiao Keding was immediately encouraged, and reported: "And Your Majesty, there are people inside Tangjiabao who have gone to the fort to be empty, and the minister has also sent a section of the Japanese battalion to guard over there, and no one will be allowed to enter. In addition, there was a team of men and horses who searched the fort and found some discoveries. ”

Sun Ning nodded again: "Oh, then go over and have a look." ”

The huge Jinguan City has become chaotic, and only Tangjiabao, which is defended in time, can make him, the emperor, temporarily stop. This point, the soldiers who killed the red and grabbed the red eyes also understood it, so no one dared to go there to spread the wild.

Sun Ning's team moved forward decisively, and after half an hour, they finally arrived in front of Tangjia Fort, where the gate was closed, and the soldiers guarding there saw the emperor's banner coming, so they hurriedly opened the door to greet them.

The first to come out was Xiao Kedi, and his face was still a little excited: "Your Majesty, everyone in the Tang family only had time to take away a small part of the gold and silver, but they left a huge amount of silver and cloth cloth brocade in the treasury of the fort......"

"Oh? So much better! Sun Ning smiled with satisfaction again, "In this way, when the time comes, take out a part of the silver and silk and distribute it to the soldiers who guard the fort and the treasury." Each person will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver, and two horses of Shu brocade! ”

didn't ask any more questions, so Sun Ning immediately made arrangements.

As soon as these words spread, the surrounding soldiers cheered: "Your Majesty Shengming, long live Your Majesty......"

They were ordered to stay here, but they could only watch the other barbarians loot everywhere, and they wanted to say in their hearts that it was false to say that they had no idea, after all, at this point, who didn't want to make a fortune?

Now, His Majesty the Emperor directly opened his mouth to reward them with so many things, which was no less than this looting, which was naturally enough to make everyone feel grateful and more loyal to the Emperor.

Sun Ning only waved his hand at them, then led people into the fort, glanced around, and found that the scale of this Tangjia Fort was indeed quite large, it was actually two or three times larger than Yanjia Fort, and the courtyards everywhere were scattered in an area large enough for a small county, which seemed so beautiful and tranquil.

It's just that all of this is built on the tragic experience of other people, and the Tang Sect can have the scale it has today, but it also kills people and robs other wealthy merchants or gangs.

And now, the entire Tang Sect has also been wiped out, and the wealth they have accumulated over the years has naturally fallen into the hands of the imperial court as conquerors.

Maybe this is the reincarnation of retribution......

Without going to the richly decorated and magnificent halls and pavilions first, Sun Ning first went to the warehouses that had been specially sealed to find out.

In addition to a granary with tens of thousands of stone of grain, the other four warehouses are silver boxes, money boxes, and brocade cloth piled up in the warehouse.

It can be seen that the wealth of the Tang Sect is indeed a rich country.

It is precisely because they have such a large amount of wealth in their hands that they are not satisfied with the status quo, and they actually try to get involved in the world's major affairs as a gang.

After Sun Ning casually looked at these mountains of belongings, Xiao Kedi came over with a solemn expression and reported: "Your Majesty, in addition to these large warehouses, we also found a slightly smaller warehouse in another hidden place, but what was hidden in it was not gold and silver property, but many items related to the secret weapons of the Tang Sect. That's where they forged their weapons......"

These words immediately attracted Sun Ning's attention, and he said with interest: "Oh? Then you can take me there quickly! ”
