494: One Hundred Thousand Banners to Kill Yama (Part 9) [Please vote]
Perhaps the Shiwu nobles never dreamed that when Shiwu was at its peak, in the most important political center of Shiwu, and in their home base where they had the greatest sense of security, the door would be kicked open by the enemy. Where did the enemy belong?
When to infiltrate?
They know nothing.
Some unlucky people didn't even have a chance to think about these issues, and were killed by a swarm of enemies.
The fire jumped and the screams reached the sky.
Xu Quan was the strongest among them all, and all the brave warriors with slightly higher strength were left to him to deal with and contain, while Bai Su led his troops to kill several types of people - tall and burly people, wearing underwear made of silk and satin
The one who is successful is the one who is weaker than a man!
If you encounter him, kill him if you can!
The rest of the women and children who are weak can be let off as appropriate.
And this was formulated by Bai Su before taking action.
Lin Feng was young and had little experience. Although he could see some skills, he still had some puzzlements: [This... tall and burly man, mostly a brave warrior. This surprise attack was to severely defeat Shiwu Xun.
Dear senior officials, we should make a quick decision...]
There are also brave and courageous warriors around noble officials to protect them. Although their strength is not very high, they can still deal with ordinary soldiers. Considering that the opportunity is fleeting, shouldn't we deal with as many suspected targets as possible in the limited time?
The difficulty of tonight's operation might be beyond her expectation, so Lin Feng was mentally prepared to never return to this trip.
【it's not true.】
Bai Su has been traveling in the world for many years, and her considerations are as comprehensive as those of Lin Feng. She said: "Your considerations are not unreasonable, but a tall body cannot be cultivated by corn and rice. Meat and white eggs are even more indispensable. Even for high-ranking officials
It is impossible for the servants who serve at home to have a big meal of fish and meat, and eat a few eggs a day. Especially in a cannibalistic place like Shiwu...]
Lin Feng nodded when he heard this: [I have learned a lesson.]
Using skin-friendly and precious silk and satin to make obscene clothes means being rich or noble, which is not a condition that ordinary people can have. Men with weak crowns and above are not allowed to be retained, which is also a way to screen out the high-ranking officials. After several comprehensive considerations, it is indeed more thoughtful than Lin Feng's original idea.
many.
Xu Quan rarely interrupted.
[Let me say it first, I am not asking about indiscriminate killing and violence - why should women and children be spared? It's okay for women and children. The status of senior women in Shiwu is much higher than that in Guannai, but no matter how high they are, they are not allowed to take the lead, but their children
...]
Xu Quan: [Even if they are children, they are also noble and high-ranking officials. The tribal forces behind them will support them and support them. The future will still be a big problem... If you don't bother the two masters, why not take this opportunity to eradicate it?
】
Bai Su said lightly: [Because of time.]
Xu Quan wiped his nose: [It is true, we don’t have much time, and I don’t know how long sir, they can fight for it...]
[Wrong, what I mean is that it takes time for these young wolves to grow up to the age where they can be independent. This time is enough for us to grow our power. If we use sneak attacks today, why can't we send troops directly into Shiwu King's capital in the future? Therefore, it is not enough.
For consideration.]
The reason why hidden dangers are hidden dangers is because the person being threatened is not strong enough and is negligent and gives others a chance.
If this trip is successful, at least five to ten years can be gained. By then, the lord will no longer be the lord of today, and Shiwu will not be the Shiwu of today! Xu Quan was choked by what Bai Su revealed.
, I wonder where her confidence comes from.
Did the lord give it to me?
Xu Quandao: [OK, just follow what you say.]
Listen to others' advice and eat well. My cousin always says that he is not smart and Bai Su has more experience in the world than him, so he listens to her.
I thought this act was extremely dangerous, but in the end——
Unexpectedly smooth.
This area in the inner city was the focus of Gu Chi's care. Xu Quan and others moved very smoothly. Occasionally they encountered major obstacles and were able to overcome them without any danger. Some of them had some magical writing skills to help relieve the pressure, and the battle losses were less than expected.
Much more.
Of course, the results were much more fruitful than expected.
Xu Quan secretly sighed in admiration - indeed, an excellent literary scholar can indeed save a lot of trouble.
What's more, there are still three of them.
He was a little moved when he looked at the Lingde girl.
If such a good literati seedling can dig into his own fence, wouldn't he be bound by the five virtues of a general?
People like Shi Wu were not stupid, and they would not stay where they were and line up on Huangquan Road. After experiencing the initial fear, they organized their manpower to break out. Xu Quan was short of troops, so as long as he could break through, he had an 80% chance of escaping.
Then, they made the right bet, and after paying a heavy price, they finally led the remaining soldiers to retreat safely and saved their lives.
But they also made the wrong bet——
The target of Xu Quan and others is not just them.
There is also Shiwu Treasury!
You need to know that Shiwu is rich in minerals, especially gold, silver, copper and iron. These are the magic weapons they use to do business with people in the pass and bribe them. They have also used them to cultivate a group of elites in recent years. Otherwise, how could Shiwu be so fast?
What about Rise?
The treasury stores a large amount of belongings all year round.
Xu Quan and the others don't need copper or iron.
The most important thing is gold and silver jewelry!
"I have a question……"
In the entire Shiwu inner city, the largest concentration of troops was near the treasury. However, these soldiers and horses were mobilized away from the mountain when the earth dragon turned over. In addition, something happened to the noble and high-ranking officials, so they had no choice but to mobilize troops to support them, but they were reduced to pieces.
They were defeated one by one by Xu Quan and others, and many remaining soldiers were killed on the way. The journey was uneventful until they reached the treasury gate.
Treasury, Treasury, worthy of the name!
Boxes of neatly stacked gold bricks and silver nuggets made Xu Quan, the son of the Tianhai Xu family, salivate...
"what?"
Bai Su is quite calm.
It's not that she is well-informed and treats money like dirt, but her early experiences have made her indifferent to gold and silver.
Xu Quan was carrying one in each hand. He wished he could grow three heads and six arms, and he also hated the brave warrior because he was no longer stronger!
He asked: "Sir, why do they know where the Shiwu Treasury is and how to get there? Isn't this confidential?"
He had been holding back this question for a long time.
The earth dragon turned over and collapsed the hole dug in advance.
Only one path remained, leading from the treasury to the outside of the city.
Bai Su: "..."
She couldn't answer this question either.
But—
"If you have the strength to speak, just move as much as possible."
Throwing the treasury boxes into the hole one by one.
This hole was dug extremely deep, and there were more than a hundred people lurking underneath. They did not go to the battlefield, but were always waiting below, in order to transfer this batch of gold and silver treasures as quickly as possible and in the least time. Any movement in Shiwu King's capital would alarm the people.
nearby tribes.
Once these tribes send troops to reinforce, they will be taken advantage of by the enemy, so - they must race against time.
As dawn approaches, tribal reinforcements arrive after receiving the news.
From a distance, I saw a huge hole in the towering wall of the royal capital.
It was as if someone had used violence to destroy it from the inside out.
There is still a violent and unfamiliar martial spirit left at the edge.
The air was filled with a burnt smell.
The inner city of the royal capital was in ruins, with occasional unburned flames swaying quietly and smoking loosely.
Where is the shadow of the enemy?
The ordinary people in the capital city suffered little damage, mostly burns. Only a few unlucky ones died and their property was burned to the ground. However, the core area where noble and high-ranking officials gathered was completely reduced to ruins, and charred corpses could be seen everywhere, which was shocking!
When the leader of the troops and horses who came to support saw this scene, his legs suddenly became weak and he almost collapsed to the ground.
It’s over——
All is lost!
There is only this thought left in my mind.
If the king returns home victorious and sees that the royal capital he spent huge sums of money to build has turned into this, the first thing he will do is hold them accountable for their poor protection and lack of timely support.
No matter how they explain it, I'm afraid the end result will be——
When I think of that scene, my face turns pale.
Even more desperate than them are the princes responsible for guarding the royal capital this time. Although they have ambitions, they know that their age and strength are too far behind their elder brothers, so they are forced to lie down.
Life is only a few decades, isn't it good to eat, drink and have fun?
They are good at eating, drinking and having fun.
Defend the city and mobilize troops to deal with emergencies...
They really can't do it!
The earth dragon turned over for a while before one of the hungover princes was dug out from the ruins by his subordinates and forced to sober up. He was still confused. Although the other princes were not so exaggerated, they could not come up with an idea and were instead beaten by the menacing Xu Quan.
The others were so frightened that they hurriedly asked the guards to escort them to break through and escape.
One of them was particularly unlucky.
He ran too fast and too far, and bumped into dozens of remnants of soldiers along the way. He mistook them for his own troops, so he stepped forward to identify himself, and then - and then nothing more -
There is no reason to extrapolate the military merit that comes to your doorstep.
Gu Chi was speechless and choked as he watched Jiang Sheng pull the sword out of the unfortunate man's chest and complained: "Does he still have a brain?"
Jiang Sheng said: "Empty."
Even if you have a brain, it is stuffed with straw.
"Then the head still needs to be taken away?"
"Take it with you."
After all, he is a prince. No matter how stupid he is, he cannot bear to have a father who is a king. His worth is different from that of ordinary Shiwu people.
Gu Chi said with a smile: "Let's go and meet the Lord."
This is a big win!
Although our own side also lost more than 200 men and more than half were injured, it was nothing compared to the enemy's losses.
He would like to see——
Shiwu returned from the expedition and saw the royal capital in this state, with 60% of the high-ranking officials lost. What would he look like!
It's a pity that it can't be seen.
Gu Chi couldn't help but curl his lips and show off his face.
This smile diluted the depression caused by the forced overdraft of Wenqi, and the almost pale cheeks gained a little more color.
All three parties were exhausted.
Compared with the exhausted body, the spirit was as excited as a chicken blood. Many people looked at their palms belatedly, unable to believe that they could survive an almost certain death action. The enemy
They died, the enemy's lair was burned down by them, and the enemy's treasury was stolen by them!
It’s so beautiful that it’s like dreaming!
If you can return to the pass alive——
This bull can brag for a lifetime!
"Lord!" Gu Chi.
"Lord!" Jiang Sheng.
Shen Tang, who was sitting on the box, was chewing green plums with her head down, using the sour energy to keep herself calm and awake. When she heard a familiar voice, she jumped up.
"You two are finally back!"
Very good, no arms or legs missing!
Gu Chi asked: "Lord, how was the harvest?"
Shen Tang gave a thumbs up, pointed at the countless boxes, and said with a smile: "Bumpy harvest! Big bumper harvest! Lingde is still sorting it out, we will know soon! I want to divide the spoils... Bah, let's put the soldiers first
Divide the pension reward, and then——"
Most of it must have gone into the public treasury.
It was used to build the post-war Longwu County and Yonggu Pass.
Restore people's livelihood and economy.
Part of the budget for today and beyond...
Part of the salary...
part of...
Shen Tang flexed his fingers to roughly arrange the purpose of each stroke, and finally he only had a little finger left.
Her smile suddenly became a little more vulgar and proud.
Gu Chi and Gu Chi had already noticed this.
"What are your plans, my lord?"
Shen Tang asked: "As the lord, I also put in a lot of effort in this battle. The Fire Bull Formation finally lost control. If I hadn't had an idea and let them break through the city wall and blast out a way out, they might not have been able to retreat so smoothly. As a result, I was struck by martial arts.
Backlash, the internal organs have suffered a little shock, so there should be some compensation and comfort, right?"
Afraid that Gu Chi and the others would worry about him, Shen Tang deliberately emphasized that the backlash was only "a little bit."
Gu Chi held back his laughter and asked again: "How much does the master want?"
Shen Tang stretched out five fingers and the lion opened its mouth.
"Five thousand taels, gold!"
After saying that, I felt a little guilty again.
After all, she was used to being poor.
The money bag only contains varying amounts of copper coins throughout the year.
This time the coin unit jumped to "two", and it was still gold. How could she not be excited, but did she want too much? Five thousand taels of gold can do many, many things...
Money will corrode people's will. She should uphold the good virtue of frugality and hard work, and talk about money without talking about it.
Gu Chi and Jiang Sheng were both speechless.
Jiang Sheng threw the blame away and said, "You are really misleading me."
Gu Chi retorted: "Her half-master is Qi Yuanliang."
Jiang Sheng sneered: "Oh, him? A mediocre teacher misleads people."
Shen Tang: "???"
What does this have to do with Qi Yuanliang?
Before she could figure out the reason, Lin Feng's frightened scream suddenly came from behind her, and she said: "My lord, something is wrong!"
Shen Tang tensed up his nerves instantly.
An enemy is coming???
who???
Where???

I slept a lot during the day, and now I can't even sleep.
In order to keep the chapter straight, I rushed out an extra 1,500 words...
