The first thing Han Lin did after coming in was to take the hammer from Liang Ji's hand. After four lightning strikes, King Gaitian fell to the ground like mud. Because of the pain, his face turned pale, but he endured it.
He couldn't stop shouting. His whole body was shaking like dead leaves in the cold wind. His limbs were twisted strangely, and Han Lin's four hammers completely broke his limbs.
Han Lin threw away the hammer, grabbed an iron chain and shook it. Yun Zheng was shocked to find that the iron chain had been sawed open, so he picked up several other iron chains and checked them. He was sweating.
The same is true for the other iron chains. If I give King Gaitian a little more time, this guy will probably get out of trouble. No wonder he talks so much nonsense.
"When Monkey sent Qin Long and Mei Niang away, they walked to Minghui Zen Temple. Mei Niang told Monkey that King Gaitian was about to escape from trouble. You treat people sincerely, but people are wary of you."
As he spoke, he pointed at King Gaitian who was lying on the ground and said to Yun Zheng: "Do you think these people are rare heroes? They are just some thieves of the remnants of the people. I followed Qin Long astray and accidentally walked to the tomb.
Chang, you really should go see the pile of dead bones and corpses in the cave. There are no less than ten thousand corpses there. Remember, the next time you meet this kind of evil thief, don’t give him any hope, and don’t hold anything against him.
Any mercy, the greater the reputation, the more people will be killed, this is the rule."
As Han Lin spoke, he picked up the hammer and broke the half-connected iron chains one by one. He grabbed an iron chain and dragged King Gaitian out. He was not interested in what King Gaitian said at all. Yun Zheng watched.
King Gaitian's broken leg was twisted by the cold forest, and the pink bone stubble pierced the flesh. Liang Ji and Pengjiu breathed in the cold air and covered their ears, not wanting to hear King Gaitian's shrill screams.
If a person falls into the hands of Han Lin, it will be too difficult for King Gaitian to live well.
"Hurry up and get your belongings packed. Ma Jinhu will be back soon." Han Lin's cold voice floated down from above.
It's best not to mess with Han Lin when he becomes fierce. Liang Ji once suffered a lot from Han Lin. He was a little bit irrational and was beaten severely by Han Lin who asked for help in martial arts. The old Taoist was very good at beating people.
If you are evil, hit wherever it hurts. This is what Liang Ji later secretly told Yun Zheng.
Jinsha is Yun Zheng's favorite thing. Once this thing is burned back, it can be melted into gold ingots and become the Yun family's secret treasure. Pearls the size of pigeon eggs are also Yun Zheng's favorite thing. Lu Qingqing likes pearl jewelry more than
Love gems, there are two huge light blue pearls in an exquisite box. If these things were given to Lu Qingqing, it would probably...
Yun Zheng naturally hid the pearl in his pocket. The only person who could easily take the loot in Jiazi Camp was Yun Zheng. The things in Jiazi Camp belong to the general. This is the consensus of everyone. Peng Jiu even flattered him from a shelf.
He found a gem that shimmered with flames and presented it to the general, thinking that it matched the lady's status very well.
Yun Zheng took a string of pearl necklaces and a rose hairpin with a strong exotic style. He stopped touching the treasures here and went up to them with his hands behind his back.
After the general walked up, Peng Jiu's face darkened, and he said bitterly to everyone: "Watch your hands, these things belong to the big guys, if you don't want your whole family to be kicked out of Jiazi Camp, just go and get them.
I will definitely stomp on those thieving hands of yours myself."
For such a deterrent, Jiaziying didn't care. The fool only went to steal it now. The general did not sell the jewelry seized in Zhaogong Mountain last time. When Lai Lao's son got married, the general sent the monkey to deliver a set of headgear.
, saying it was a congratulatory gift from the madam. From now on, whenever anyone gets married or marries a daughter, jewelry will be given to her. This is also the rule of Jiaziying.
I really liked it, so I shamelessly asked the general to ask him to exchange the interest for some good things. If he was caught taking the things now, he would be shameless when he returned to Shu.
When Ma Jinhu came, it was already dawn. Yun Zheng saw that he was covered in filthy blood and smelled so heavy that he couldn't stand next to him. He asked him to take a shower, but this guy insisted on looking at the treasury first.
Under the contemptuous gaze of the Jiaziying sergeant, Ma Jinhu knelt down in the bank and cried loudly. He kept crying and held a box of silver in his arms without letting go. He begged Yun Zheng to leave some money for the Western Army no matter what, not all of it.
Converted into horse money, the brothers in the Western Army are living a hard life. With more money, they can go back and buy some food for the families of the brothers who died in the war, so as to survive this year's difficult days of drought.
Yun Zheng looked at the small amount of silver and then at the mountains of copper coins. He pointed at the pile of copper coins and said to Ma Jinhu: "I won't give you the silver. You can carry the copper coins yourself. Whatever you can carry is as much as you can carry."
"Eight hundred people carry it?" Ma Jinhu's eyes flashed brightly.
"Come on, there are only 500 people carrying copper coins. The remaining 300 people have to send me to Jingzhao Mansion. I don't have enough manpower."
Yun Zheng remembered that the last time he had 3,000 people carrying copper coins, he didn't carry much. After all, copper coins usually weigh seven or eight kilograms. They were wearing armor and had to carry weapons and food on their backs. The added weight of each person was thirty or forty kilograms. After all, from
From here to Huanzhou, we still have to walk for many days. There are mountains of copper coins and copper utensils in the cave in front of us. The value of copper utensils is higher than that of copper coins. A rough calculation is definitely not less than 10,000 guan. He can take away five
Thousands of sticks reach the sky.
However, Yun Zheng found that he had miscalculated. People like Ma Jinhu were very imaginative when faced with large piles of copper coins. The sergeants given to Yun Zheng were all thin and weak, while those who were fat and strong
They all carried wicker baskets and carried copper coins into the cave.
The sergeant of Jiazi Camp and Yun Zheng squatted at the mouth of the well with their rice bowls to watch these people carrying money. When Ma Jinhu came out, Yun Zheng was shocked. This guy had a huge basket on his back, and all the copper coins in the basket were
Come on, this basket will definitely not be less than 300 kilograms. The rope on the basket cut deeply into his shoulders, and the veins on his neck jumped. He climbed out of the well step by step. If something went wrong, he would
Killed by copper coins.
Yun Zheng sighed, put down his job and went back to his room. He underestimated the power of people under the call of money. An hour later, the monkey came to retaliate. These people just moved all the copper coins in the cave.
.
Looking at the triumphant Ma Jinhu in front of him, Yun Zheng said helplessly: "Not counting armor, weapons, food and water for each person, how can you let each of them carry more than 160 kilograms of copper coins back to Huanzhou? What if they meet bandits?
What should we do?”
Ma Jinhu looked at Yun Zheng strangely and said: "I will put the copper coins on the mule cart and be escorted by five hundred people. Hehehe, I will not believe that the short-sighted man dares to come and rob me. These five hundred brothers now, I will
Dare to take them to Xingqing Mansion!"
Yun Zheng shook his head and said: "Don't think about the mule cart. The ordnance seized this time is more important than the copper coins. These things need to be placed on the mule cart. Since you dare to take so many copper coins, you can find a way to get them back yourself. That's extra money."
The spoils of war.”
Ma Jinhu said with a smile: "In this case, the general will be stationed in Yizhou. When my commander-in-chief sends people over to receive money and food, the commander-in-chief will definitely not pay attention to the court's red tape."
Yun Zheng said coldly: "When you come out to fight, you must follow the rules, but there are no taboos when you come out to take money."
Ma Jinhu rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said: "General, please don't complain about our commander. This is true. If the commander comes out with his army to destroy the bandits, regardless of victory or defeat, he will be impeached by the censor. This is a serious crime.
Ah, even if my commander-in-chief wants to defend himself, he has nowhere to say it, but it’s easy to say that he came out to pick up money and food. Even if the censor impeaches him, the ministers in the political hall will only laugh and curse greed, and even if he is convicted,
It's just a reprimand, the two are not the same."
"Oh, forget it, your commander-in-chief has tried his best on this matter. How could I not know the difference between the two? It doesn't matter if you take away all the copper coins, I can go back to Shu lightly and carry them with me along the way.
I'm afraid the tens of thousands of kilograms of copper coins traveling across the state and government are not enough to be blackmailed. If you take them away, I will at least understand that all the money will be used on the border troops, so that's fine, let's handle it like this!"
Ma Jinhu's hanging heart was finally relieved, and he saluted Yunzheng solemnly: "In the future, as long as the general's affairs are concerned, our Western Army will do its best. No matter how high or low we are, we are grateful for the general's generosity."
After handling the money, everyone was happy. Jiaziying knew that he had taken away the light and valuable things, and everyone had no problem with giving the bulky and worthless things to the Western Army. After all, it was impossible for him to transport the money back to Sichuan.
, it’s not bad to give it to the Western Army. At least these days of fighting together and sharing life and death have created some camaraderie. They all feel that this is the general deliberately giving an advantage to the Western Army.
The whole Western Army also thought so. Otherwise, a general who knew all his plans would not have made such a mistake. It was not a particularly difficult task for a strong man to carry a hundred kilograms on his back. Therefore, when the Western Army saw Jiazi,
The battalion sergeant felt somewhat apologetic. General Ma said that the silver was actually not much and its value was not as good as copper coins.
The bandits in Kongtong Mountain not only have money warehouses, but also weapons warehouses, material warehouses, and grain warehouses. Yun Zheng issued an order and ordered people to go to Yizhou to recruit militiamen. He planned to completely destroy all the places on this mountain that could hide troops.
destroyed.
Because there was no shortage of money and food, the dubious civilians rushed to tell each other when they saw the piles of corpses of the bandits. People from Yizhou City went out almost empty-handed, and led by the soldiers of the Jiazi Battalion and the Western Army to clean up the holes one by one.
, the sins in the world that were covered by mountains were finally exposed to the broad daylight.
Yun Zheng looked at the layers of corpses in the deep cave and cried on the spot. The scribes in Yizhou were almost furious when they saw this scene. Countless texts appeared in Yizhou, accusing the crimes of these bandits.
The eminent monks of Minghui Zen Temple held solemn rituals here to save the souls of the dead.
Yunzheng not only found a lot of money and food, but also found numerous evidence of collusion between officials and Kongtong bandits. Since he was not a local official, Yunzheng hired some local scribes with excellent reputations to help clean up Kongtong's documents. As a result, these officials
Documents dealing with the bandits also quietly and unintentionally spread out.
Countless officials in Yizhou City hanged themselves that day.
Fu Bi held the document sent by Han Lin through the Secret Service in his hand and closed his eyes in pain. He never thought that his deputy would also have a close connection with King Gaitian. (To be continued)
