Chapter Three Hundred and Sixty Three

When Wu Nian came to the county government office, the door was closed.

"The mantis is trying to make a chariot without overestimating its own capabilities." Wu Nian was very angry today, with contempt and coldness in his eyes.

However, Wu Nian still held back. He hated Jiang Gan even more for being such a person. He said: "Attack in, pull out the county magistrate and kill him. Forget about the women, wives and children."

"Yes." The accompanying hundreds of households responded immediately, and led the people to climb over the wall and rush in. Soon after, screams came one after another in the county government office.

Then the door was opened, and an old man who was over fifty years old, with gray hair and very well-dressed, was dragged out in embarrassment by a strong soldier.

"General, General, spare your life." The old man glanced at Wu Nian and begged for mercy in a trembling voice.

With a "click", a soldier raised his knife and chopped off the old man's head. The head rolled down to Wu Nian's feet.

Wu Nianfei kicked the head away and cursed: "I spared you, who will spare me?"

Immediately, Wu Nian sent troops to capture and kill the county magistrate. After the soldiers cleared out the county government office, he walked into the county government office, took off his armor in the hall, treated his injuries, and sat down to wait.

At this time, Wu Nian couldn't hold on anymore, his eyelids were fighting, and he was drowsy. But there were some things that he hadn't dealt with yet.

He can't sleep.

"Da da da." Wu Nian was awakened by the sound of footsteps. His eyes lit up and he raised his head to look at the door. Wang Gui walked in from outside with a loud voice, holding the handle of the knife on his waist.

"General, the city gate has been controlled. However, Commander Qian Zhengguang saw that the situation was not good and ran away with some of his cronies and family members."

With a look of hatred on Wang Gui's face, he bowed and said. He and Zhang Sheng divided their forces to attack the other two city walls, but they also suffered a lot of damage.

Seeing the huge casualties among the soldiers, he felt heartbroken.

"It's an advantage for him." Wu Nian narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

"Don't worry about him. Have you killed all the centurions and ten-centurions in the army?" Wu Nian asked.

"He has been killed, and his head will be hung on the city wall." Wang Gui showed a sinister smile.

"Okay. Make a statement. You immediately send troops to the warehouses, granaries, and arsenals to collect carts in the city. Load the gold, silver, grain, and military supplies onto the carts."

"Divide the troops to guard the four walls, take care of the wounded soldiers, and collect the corpses. This time we have time, so we have to bury the dead soldiers."

"The guard adopts a rotation system. Let the soldiers who have no mission go to sleep immediately."

Wu Nian nodded, turned to look at Zhang Sheng, and said in a deep voice.

"Yes." Zhang Sheng didn't say anything, he just responded with clasped fists, turned around and left.

"Brother, go and bring the officials of this city here." Wu Nian turned to Wang Gui and said.

"Yes." Wang Gui responded with clasped fists, turned around and left.

Wu Nian's thousands of men and horses went about their own business in an orderly manner. He did not want to occupy the city. While collecting food and grass, he still followed the old routine of taking away the Han people who were willing to leave with him.

It's not forced.

But the soldiers of tens of thousands of Han households were not included in this list. The captives were tied up and taken away by force. This group of people had fighting power and should not be underestimated.

It should not be returned to the Mongolian people.

If these soldiers are local soldiers, they can also forcibly take their family members and tie them up with each other.

"You have to stay up late," Zhang said. After Wang Gui left, the spirit he had just cheered up began to slump again.

Wu Nian, a great general, could not sit upright. Not only was he drowsy, but his whole body felt weak and he wanted to collapse on the Taishi chair.

And this Taishi chair is so comfortable.

Wu Nian smiled bitterly and continued to fight with his eyelids, fighting against sleep.

After waiting for a long time, Wu Nian woke up again amid the sound of chaotic footsteps, and his limp posture straightened up again.

He straightened his chest and back, held his head high and moved forward, his eyes gleaming.

Wang Gui came in with a group of well-dressed men. They were all trembling, their faces were pale, and they were a little embarrassed.

"Don't worry. As long as you do as I say, I won't kill you." Wu Nian said coldly.

Sen Han's tone, coupled with his sitting posture, his aura, and his powerful reputation in Liaodong, immediately made the junior officials nod their heads.

"General, just give us your orders." A white-haired old official said with a trembling voice.

"You command the government officials, beat gongs and drums in the city, and shout along the streets, saying that Wu Nian, the general who assisted the Han Dynasty, has entered the city. Recruit people with lofty ideals to fight against the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty with me. I will repair the city all night, and tomorrow I will send troops to attack Yacheng.

Let those with lofty ideals be prepared."

Wu Nian said in a deep voice.

Wang Gui's face moved slightly.

"Yes." The old official bowed in response very smoothly.

"Go down." Wu Nian waved his right hand, his expression softening slightly.

"Yes." The minor officials responded tremblingly, turned around and left.

"General, are you spreading rumors? You said you were going to attack Yacheng. In fact, you had another purpose?" After everyone had left, Wang Gui came to sit next to Wu Nian and asked in a low voice.

Although the men and horses were damaged, the food problem was solved. They also defeated the soldiers of two thousand captains of Han people and killed Jiang Gandang.

It can even take away part of the population, gold, and silver.

Their goal was completely achieved. What they had to do now was to weave their way through the mountains and return to Beishan Fort safely under the watchful eyes of the nearby Mongolian and Yuan soldiers.

Now Wu Nian told these officials that his next move was to attack Yacheng.

The news will definitely spread.

It must be a plan to attack the east and attack the west.

I claimed that I wanted to attack Ya City, but in fact I didn't attack Ya City at all.

After experiencing Wu Nian's plan to build a plank road openly and covertly to attack Chencang, the army's departure from Yacheng was actually a rush march to attack Chongxian County.

Wang Gui felt that he had guessed Wu Nian's thoughts.

"No. This time I really want to go to Yacheng. As for whether to attack, it depends on whether Yacheng is prepared."

"After my plan to build a plank road to cross Chencang secretly, Wan Yanxian, Jin Ruiyun and others must be suspicious. If I tell the truth, they may not believe it."

"We may have relaxed our vigilance against Yacheng and strengthened our vigilance in other counties. The large group of troops also directly abandoned the direction of Yacheng and headed straight for Chongxian County."

"Didn't they fail again?"

Wu Nian's eyes and face were full of smiles, and he was smiling everywhere.

Surprise means keeping the enemy from guessing.

I claimed that I was going to attack Yacheng, but actually I really wanted to go to Yacheng.

True and false.

Let the four thousand households in Meng Yuan worry about it. Anyway, now I can run, fight, and attack cities. I am not afraid at all when wandering around in these deep mountains and old forests.

Just take advantage of every opportunity.

Wang Gui was dumbfounded when he heard this, is it true?

But after thinking about it carefully, he became convinced. He cupped his hands and said, "Yes."

Wu Nian looked at Wang Gui. He was clean. He probably did not participate in the battle directly, but his haggard appearance and two big dark circles under his eyes were particularly eye-catching.

"Brother, you also go down to detoxify, take a bath, and go to sleep. Chong County is fine, don't worry." Wu Nian said in a softer voice.

"Okay." Wang Gui couldn't hold it anymore, smiled and nodded, and then went down to find a house in the county government office to rest.

Wu Nian couldn't bear it, so he didn't even need to take a shower. He directly found a room, took off his clothes, and lay down on the bed to sleep.

There are still 40,000 households to deal with, so we need to be mentally replenished.
