total war broken

Chapter 228
The news of Zhang Xianzhong's arrival was told to Xiao Chuan when the little refugee woke up. Looking at the very pretty little girl in common clothes beside Wang Dazi, Xiao Chuan looked strangely and said, "This is the girl you saved?" Xiao Chuan The tone was strange, this Wang Dazi should be thankful if he didn't kill someone, but today is the first time I saw him save someone!Looking at his eyes, he still seems to be very concerned about the appearance of this little girl.

"Yes, big brother, I have already accepted him as my righteous sister." Wang Dazi said, with a rare softness in his tone, looking at the ghostly girl beside him, but the girl shouted in an ethereal voice Brother, that Wang Dazi's cloudy eyes narrowed.

Xiao Chuan and Wang Heng looked at each other, and they were both incredulous. When will Wang Mazi accept someone as a righteous sister?Xiao Chuan pinched his face, or rather, everyone in the room pinched his face to confirm whether he was dreaming.

"My brother, give me a punch." Han Gang said to Han Tie, pinching his face again.

Han Tie didn't care about his brother, but hammered himself hard, his eyes glazed over.

Xiao Chuan did not watch this shocking scene, but said: "[-] troops?" And they are all elites, this is the most terrifying thing, so many elites in Zhang Xianzhong?Moreover, the infantry are all horse infantry, horse infantry, and the luggage is also transported by mules and horses. This is the most terrifying place, such a strong mobility, such a huge elite army.

Looking at the map, he wondered: "Why didn't he choose to go to the southeast, the territory of Guangxi wolf soldiers, and go to my place?"

"Guangxi wolf soldiers are the best in the world! Naturally, they seem to be stronger than our team that has just made a name for themselves." Wang Heng said, shaking his head, and said: "But he, Zhang Xianzhong, will soon regret his decision, haha. "

Although the crowd is calm on the surface, there is such a different kind of pressure in their hearts. The number of enemy troops that has never been seen before [-] rogues attack the city is just the number of soldiers among them.
Xiao Chuan shook his head, looked at the city, and said: "Since this is the case, the only way to fight is to let the thief regret it, and go to Nanyang at that time."

"My lord, why don't we set up an ambush outside the city, ambush, how about ambush that Zhang Xianzhong?" Han Gang said, looking at the map in the middle.

"Impossible, Zhang Xianzhong has 6 horses, how can he ambush? I'm afraid we will be surrounded by the opponent before the ambush is over!" Lan Tian said, and he came out to refute as soon as Han Gang finished speaking.

Han Gang's face turned blue, and he said by saying: "How can we be surrounded? We can get it in an ambush. It's just a group of thieves. How can we surround our army?"

The crowd began to quarrel lively again, but Wang Dazi, who usually likes to yell and argue with others at this time, is standing quietly aside at this moment, talking to the younger sister he has just met.

It is also to arrange the task of defending the city and assign whoever is stationed on the four walls. , everyone went out to prepare, but Wang Dazi took his righteous sister to the city to buy clothes.

Looking at Wang Heng at the side, Wang Heng said before Xiao Chuan opened his mouth, "It's okay, I don't think that little girl is a spy!"

"I didn't expect that this Wang Dazi had such a side." Xiao Chuan exclaimed, he was really gentle and heroic, but he could see that the little girl had no interest in Wang Dazi, and most likely regarded him as a winner. It's unbelievable that a man as vicious as Da Mazi would still be captured by a woman.

"Hehe, my lord, maybe that Wang Dazi just treats the little girl as his younger sister." Wang Heng said with a big smile, his tone full of satisfaction.

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Xiao Chuan clapped his hands, and after a while, a man in black from the blood killing team appeared, holding a short knife in his hand, looking at him, Xiao Chuan said, "How is it?"

"My lord, the evidence has been laid out," he said, with disdain in his voice, "Hmph, it's just a bunch of chickens and dogs, and I can sneak in easily."

"Have you imitated the handwriting?" Xiao Chuan asked, with a trace of worry in his heart.

"Okay, my lord," the man said again: "That family is really a thief, so we don't need to frame it. I found the letter of the thief in his house, so there is no need to imitate it."

Hearing the news, Xiao Chuan and Wang Heng looked at each other in disbelief, a thief?Can Tong Manqing explain it?This thief, hehe, what are they planning?Perhaps just like the fall of the city of Beijing, everyone knew that Chuangjun was someone who robbed the government and rich households. As a result, a group of ministers in the court scrambled to become second ministers, always thinking that Li Zicheng would treat him kindly after he entered the city. As a result, all of them were unlucky.

While asking Xiangyi to prepare the clothes for that night, he clicked on the system option and planned how to distribute the money after he made money later. This is an important issue.

A tent of 5000 silver, plus about 7000 silver, is [-] Hun cavalry archers, [-] and [-] Hun cavalry, what if you rob Beijing? [-] million taels of silver, but there are millions of Hun cavalry archers. This huge temptation will make him unable to recognize it and go out to fight the capital.

As well as the beggar army and the bearded soldiers, the French Old Guard now has more options for expansion. However, the 1 taels of silver later will make it collapse. This time, it can be collected. In this way, the strength of these armies The quantity, I'm afraid, will allow me to run amok.

And the warship, moreover, the navy warship, you can ignore all kinds of conditions, as long as you give the money, you can ship, and when the time comes to form a navy fleet, why are you afraid of Zheng Chenggong? Once he came here, he could copy his hometown by water.

*************
Walking out of the mansion, looking at the faint twilight, there is a coolness in the air, and the fresh air unique to the Ming Dynasty makes people feel refreshed. Outside the door is a green brick road, and when they get in a carriage, there are impoverished refugees on both sides of the road. Just after the cold winter, some people had festering chilblains, white pus remained, and firewood was carried on their backs. The tattered clothes had been worn for an unknown amount of time, some were covered with patches, and some had no patches. a gaping hole.

The originally fresh air was now filled with a stench, which attracted lotus seeds. Xiangyi in the car was dressed in a pink long dress, elegantly dressed, as beautiful as a lady. Xiao Chuan immediately used her as a lap pillow and slept on it.

After a while, she got up, and Xiangyi pointed to the snow-white trousers, which were a little wrinkled by Xiao Chuan's headache, and gave him a reproachful look.Just got off the carriage.

After getting out of the carriage, this place is the mansion of the Tang king. The vermilion gate in front of him has just been painted, it is bright and bright, and looks very beautiful. The servant at the gate sees the beautiful Xiangyi face and understands that Xiao Chuan in front of him has a high status, so he immediately to meet.

After walking in, the inside is completely different from the outer city that I saw just now, like two worlds, with pavilions, towers, mansions, rockery and ponds, and every servant is gorgeously dressed.

In the inner lobby, half the size of a basketball court, the patriarchs of various families in long gowns with jade hanging around their waists were already chatting there.

On the main seat was the obese King Tang. He saw Xiao Chuan coming, with a hint of joy in his eyes, stood up with some difficulty, and said, "General Qin is here."

All the patriarchs looked over, looking at Xiao Chuan who was dressed in blue, but most of them were attracted by Xiangyi who was behind Xiao Chuan, seeing her dressed in red, like a noble lady.

They all began to discuss secretly, and many patriarchs looked at Xiao Chuan with weird eyes, as if they were disdainful or worried.

The banquet that was going on was going to be cold. Looking at the group of patriarchs, Xiaochuan immediately clasped his fists and said, "Masters, Qin Xiaochuan is a soldier, so he spoke quickly and directly stated his intentions. It was a matter of military expenses. I just received information from the sentry that the thief Zhang Xianzhong is about to approach Nanyang City, but our army is short of food and clothing, as well as food and wages!"

Hearing the news that the loyal waist came to Nanyang City, all the people looked like they were frying pots, and they all looked terrified. The Tang King's face was full of fear, and Wang Shuang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord, there is Qin. General, here, General Qin is here."

Liu Ying also looked embarrassed, the thief really chose to move here to break through.All the patriarchs looked flustered, that Zhang Xianzhong's method of dealing with the aristocratic family was extremely cruel.

Seeing the panic-stricken clan heads, Zhang Xianzhong's prestige is too high, so it won't be too difficult for these patriarchs to ask for military expenses. Lack of food and pay, the soldiers lack the will to fight, if there is food and grass for food, the soldiers will naturally work hard, and the city will not be lost."

After the next conversation, everyone realized that the young man in front of him was the star general who had just defeated Liu Guoneng of Jiangbei, and his heart was full of turmoil, but let them pay the money. . . .

One of the triangular-eyed and thin patriarchs stood up immediately and said: "It is the job of a soldier to serve the country in a war. My Ming Dynasty supports them by letting them go to war. If we have to pay for every battle, we will pay for it." Isn’t it true that the treasury of the Ming Dynasty is empty, how can there be such a reason, the court didn’t pay you soldiers on weekdays?”

"That is, the imperial court does not ask you to ask for money to support you. You need food and wages to guard a city. How decent it is."

"I think you are raising thieves to ask for credit!" The triangular-eyed patriarch said, he helped his cap, with disdain on his face, and said: "It is your duty to guard the city, don't you give me money? Stop fighting? What a joke!"

Xiao Chuan didn't speak, but just looked at the patriarch calmly. Their reaction was the same as what Wang Heng said, and he was not without a plan.Xiangyi was about to draw out his long sword angrily, Xiao Chuan held down his jade arm.

Tang Wang's expression on the side changed, and he hurried over to smooth things over, saying: "Hey, fellow patriarchs, it's not that General Qin is greedy for military pay, but that his troops have been without military pay for too long, and the soldiers have no fighting spirit, so it's really not easy to fight." He said again, "So, this king proposes that everyone pool together the money to pay enough for the army. The army guards the city and beats Zhang Xianzhong away, so that everyone can live in safety, right?"

The patriarchs' expressions softened and they all gave face to King Tang. The triangular-eyed patriarch curled his lips and said, "Okay, if that's the case, we'll collect the military salary for King Tang's sake."

Xiao Chuan clapped his hands, at this time two men in black with plates came in.

The triangular-eyed patriarch took out ten taels of silver from his cuff in pain, and said, "Oh, this is my Zhang family's one-month ration money, General Qin, you must fight hard, you must know, I In order to meet your military expenses, the Zhang family will starve for a month."

"The elder actually endured starvation for a month in order to eliminate the thieves. It is really righteous. We are ashamed of ourselves."

"Old Zhang Gaoyi!" All the patriarchs praised this patriarch, as if he had done a great thing that was beneficial to the country.

Xiao Chuan's eyes jumped, and he exchanged a glance with Xiang Yi, it was unbelievable, shameless, it was the first time he saw such a brazen person, and he paid ten taels of silver a month, the goldfish you eat every day is more than this money.This group of patriarchs is really shameless, just like when Emperor Chongzhen asked his ministers to donate money when Li Zicheng was besieging the city, those ministers who were so rich all said that they were clean and honest and had no money at home, and all of them said that they were clean and honest like Hai Rui. As soon as Li Zicheng entered the city, everyone was unlucky, exceeding 7000 million taels of silver.

"Hey, this is two taels of silver that my Liu family originally left for my son to marry. Take it away. My Liu family's heart to serve the country can be learned from the sun and the moon, and the sky will shine."

"My Zhou family has always been poor. We only eat meat once a month. This tael is my family's meat-eating money for half a year. Alas, I don't know how to eat meat for half a year." He said distressedly and took out a tael. The gold bracelet shone with a different kind of light.

Those patriarchs began to discuss how these impoverished patriarchs would live in the future after Xiao Chuan took away so much money from their family.

The man in black came in front of King Tang, and King Tang lost his breath and said, "Because of this, this king recently." He wanted to say something, but he couldn't think of a reason, and he was embarrassed, and the young servant whispered in his ear, He hastily said: "Because of helping the disaster victims outside the city and seeking the well-being of our Daming Society, we are in short supply at the moment." He took out ten taels of silver, and put it on the plate in pain. With a crisp sound from the wolf, his heart trembled.

Looking at the hundreds of taels of silver on the plate in front of him, Xiao Chuan straightened his eyes. Seeing this group of gorgeously dressed patriarchs crying for poverty, he felt a sense of overturning the world view.Said: "Patriarchs, do you still have money?"

"No, why are you such a rascal, blackmailing many of our good people, alas, many of my families have given you money for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, and you still ask me if I have money?" The triangular-eyed patriarch stood up road.

"In that case, I'll start arresting people." Xiao Chuan clapped his hands, and stomped --- there was a sound of footsteps, and men in black with sharp swords came in one by one.

The leader, Bai He, held a letter in his hand, and said: "The Chen family in Nanyang is a thief in Litong, and the crime is unforgivable."
