Chapter 101: There is so much silver (four watches)
Zhang Nai is Li Zicheng's adopted son, a few years younger than Liu Fangliang, he has loved to joke with Liu Fangliang since he was a child, and now he has become a mighty general, and he is crowned Yihou, known as Xiao Zhanghou.
Now in his twenties, he still likes to play with Liu Fangliang.
Liu Fangliang's face flushed and glared at Zhang Nai.
In the laughter of the generals, Liu Zongmin's face suddenly changed, and he replaced the military order with the double swords in his hand in one fell swoop, "Siege!"
Liu Zongmin's order was like a mountain.
A thousand archers shot at the head of the city, the arrows rained down, the Ming army in the city hid, ran and ran, this rain-like random arrow did not shoot a single Ming army, and the Ming army did not release arrows to fight back.
But the thieves ignored this, and continued to shoot arrows at the city, and a rain of arrows shot into the night sky.
Under the cover of bows and arrows, 500 thieves carried logs, some with hammers, nails and ropes, rushed to the moat, plopping and clanging, and the temporary pontoon bridge was erected without two teas.
At this time, the thief carrying the ladder rushed across the moat and erected a ladder under the city. Long ladders lined up the southern walls of the palace, one after the other.
5,000 siege death squads also rushed in, with steel knives in their mouths and shields in the other, freeing one hand to grasp their balance, and kicking up with both feet dexterously, as fast as apes.
It is really worthy of Liu Zongmin's team, the combat effectiveness is quite strong, and it only one charge to attack the city.
But at this time, the Ming army in the city had run out, and torches, flags, swords and guns were thrown all over the ground, scattered and scattered.
At this time, Zhang Nai, who was covered in armor, also rushed to the city with a knife, and said disdainfully: "Let's run, look where these bright dogs are running, and chase me down to the city!"
The thieves who rushed to the head of the city shouted and went down the road one after another.
On the main road under the city outside the noon gate, the thieves' soldiers were crushing and chattering, crowded to the brim, and the front was a huge siege vehicle, 100 strong thieves, pushing this behemoth, slammed into the palace gate.
The large pillars with a thickness of three or four zhang long were hugged on the frame, and every time they hit the city gate, they made a dull sound, like tearing down the city gate, clanging and clanging......
It was hit seven or eight times in a row, and in the last blow, two fiery red palace doors were knocked down with a click.
"Rush!" Li You, the mighty general who personally supervised the battle in front, was overjoyed, waved the long tasseled gun in his hand, shouted an order, and rushed into the palace first.
Countless thieves poured into the palace like a flood that broke the gates.
At this time, the thieves in the city also rushed down, but except for countless thieves, there was not a single Ming army.
The torch illuminated Liu Zongmin's armor, his beard trembled, and he scolded with two knives: "All of them are fucking scared away, look where they are running, they have to be pulled out and chased when they run into the mouse hole!" Search for Lao Tzu!"
The thieves screamed, and countless thieves tossed around in the palace.
Large and small palaces, all corners, next to each other.
But the Qianqing Palace, the Heart Cultivation Palace...... All the palaces were empty, including the underground secret rooms, and there was not a single figure.
Torches illuminate the face of every rogue.
"It must have been hidden in the coal mountain, it was the back flower courtyard of the palace, hurry!" Gu Kecheng was well-informed, and suddenly realized.
"To the Coal Mountain!" Liu Zongmin shouted, and the soldiers shouted like a rolling torrent.
Because there are too many people, there is a surge of thieves.
At this time, a first-class thief felt a hard object under his feet, and it hurt. When I bent over to look at it, my eyes immediately widened.
It turned out to be a large piece of silver, twenty taels!
Twenty taels of silver is his military salary for half a year, that's money!
The thief's eyes lit up, and he grabbed the silver and stuffed it into his body.
Wow, there's still one over there!
And he saw a bigger piece of silver beside him, fifty taels!
The thief pushed away the thief in front of him, leaned over and grabbed the silver.
", it's mine!" The thief next to him also found out, and he was faster than his hand, and he bent down and snatched it away.
The thief caught the air and fell to the ground with too much force.
"There's still one over here! I saw it first......" the thief shouted.
The rest of the thieves were alarmed, and they did not look forward or upward, but all bowed their heads and began to look for money.
In fact, there is no need to look for it, there is still more silver on the ground, inside and outside the palace, there are scattered silver on the ground everywhere, as little as five taels, some ten taels, and twenty taels and fifty taels.
Large pieces of silver, lying on the ground, glowed by the light of the torches.
That's a lot of silver!
Chongzhen was so generous, so that Wang Chengyi scattered 2 million taels of silver inside and outside the palace at once, can it not be much!
Just now, the thieves were only concerned about searching for the Ming army, and they didn't even look at their feet, and now it is as if they have discovered a new continent.
The thief then remembered that this was the Imperial Palace. It is said that the rich are richer than the princes, and the palace is certainly richer than the princes.
Not to mention silver, gold and silver beads must be everywhere, such opportunities to make a fortune are not common, there must be a faint king and a Ming dog soldier who fell to the ground when they were about to run, and it will be ours!
There is silver to grab, who cares about Chongzhen and those Ming army?
Over the years, they have tucked their heads into their trouser pockets, isn't it just to eat and earn two dollars? As for who sits on the country, it has nothing to do with them.
Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen
