After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 612: Suppressing Bandits and Making Money, Not Dead

Such thick crossbow arrows, with thin iron feathers that can increase accuracy, plus the super strong pulling force of the large crossbow cart, can probably penetrate the city wall from a thousand meters away and directly take the head of the general commanding the battle on the city wall!

And there are so many ballistas here.

Only ten crossbow carts are needed, and each crossbow cart only needs one arrow to kill all the generals, deputy generals, and captains who are leading the troops in a prefecture!

Dai Qianhu felt the chill penetrate into his bones and his body shivered uncontrollably.

Uncle Qin was not just a scholar because of the influence of Grandpa Qin. After seeing the large number of crossbow cart parts and then looking at Dai Qianhu, he understood his fear.

but……

He smiled and said, "Captain Dai, crossbow carts are worth ten times more than war horses. There are at least three hundred crossbow carts here, which are equivalent to three thousand war horses. The East Desert spies must have spent a lot of money and years of work to make these crossbow carts, but now they are all ours. They got nothing."

"What do you call this? This is called the prosperity of our Great Wei. Even though the East Desert spies have been planning for nearly a hundred years, in the end, it all came to nothing!"

and so……

"We are the ones who made the profit, and we are also the ones who won... Let's count the spoils first, and when the battle starts, we will use the crossbow carts of the East Desert to kill the East Desert generals. It's so exciting just thinking about it!"

This?

After listening to this, Dai Qianhu thought about it again... Damn, this is really cool.

"Hahaha, Brother Qin is right. The evil monks in the East Desert have little luck. They have been struggling for a hundred years, but in the end, they got nothing. It's all ours!"

Dai Qianhu stood up again and said, "Come here, move all these crossbow cart parts out. Even if it's just a pile of horse manure, you have to shovel it away from the evil East Desert. It can also be used as fertilizer for the pasture."

In short, everything in these mountains accumulated by the Dongmo people is theirs, and not even a piece of horse manure will be left for the Dongmo spies!

"Yes!" The soldiers were very excited. While counting the parts of the crossbow cart, they led the horses over and let the horses carry the parts out.

A total of 350 parts for the crossbow carts and the supplied large crossbow arrows.

There are also large wooden siege cones and large iron-headed cones.

Materials for arrow towers; mountains of pig iron...

After a whole day of moving, we only managed to move less than 10%.

It’s impossible to transport it all.

When Captain Tang, who was guarding the top of the bandit stronghold, learned about the situation on Yangma Mountain, he couldn't help but rush over. He was stunned when he saw the horses running around on the grass and the valuable parts piled up like small hills on the grass.

After coming to his senses, Captain Tang hurried to find Captain Dai and suggested, "Captain, why don't you send someone to find Captain Lang and Captain Wei and ask them to send half of their troops back to guard the place. Otherwise, I'm afraid that when I wake up, these good things will be gone."

There was no way. Having been used to being poor, and suddenly becoming so rich, Tang Baihu was very panicked, fearing that these were all illusions and would be gone in the blink of an eye.

Dai Qianhu refused: "No, it's more important to chase after the little prince of Dongmo. We can take our time to raid the treasury."

They are soldiers, they should know what is important and what is not, and should not be blinded by the spoils of war.

Captain Tang said hurriedly: "The captain is right, I was blinded by the money, I will fine myself three months' military pay!"

How important are spies? There is also a little Prince Hongyu among them, but he only sees money. For someone like him, he deserves not to be a thousand households.

Dai Qianhu said, "That's not necessary. We have raided the bandit camp and have become rich. There is no need to find excuses to deduct the brothers' military pay."

Uncle Qin: "..."

Are you, the Northwest Army, so poor?

So should he still go to the military camp to do civilian work?

I heard that military work is the most tiring. If he is still owed wages, wouldn't he be worse off than a dog? !

Captain Tang smiled and said, "Thank you for your consideration."

But they really made it big this time.

"Twenty-one of the thirty warehouses on the top of the mountain have been opened, and 513 boxes of gold have been seized. Each box contains 60 ingots, weighing one tael, for a total of 37,800 taels. That's more than 30,000 taels, and it's gold, which is ten times more valuable than silver. And we haven't even finished searching all the warehouses yet!"

"There is also silver. We have seized 840 boxes, totaling just over 50,000 taels."

"There are also bundles of banknotes, but unfortunately some are very old. I wonder if they can still be exchanged now?"

"We also seized a lot of leather, medicinal herbs, weapons, and so on. I brought a hundred sets of armor for Qian Hu this time, and equipped all the soldiers who didn't have armor!"

"Yes, yes, there are dozens of boxes of calligraphy and paintings, books, and they have been stored away, waiting for Mr. Qin to have time to verify their authenticity and appraise their value."

Captain Tang was so excited that he seemed drunk, his face flushed and his head dizzy.

Uncle Qin, Uncle Pang, Doctor You, and the martial artists from the Xue and Huang families were also stunned... The treasury, the bandit camp was indeed a big treasury, and so many valuables were confiscated.

"Are there any more bandit camps like this? If we can raid one of these bandit camps in a year, Your Majesty won't have to worry about military expenses." Dai Qianhu's fingers trembled with excitement. He sighed for a while, then calmed down and asked hurriedly, "Which hall does the warehouse that hasn't been opened belong to? Why hasn't it been opened?"

"They are from Yutang, Zangtang and Dongtang." Speaking of this, Captain Tang looked painful and apologized, "It was my incompetence that not only failed to open the warehouses of these three halls, but also killed six soldiers."

The boss of Yutang is the young prince Hongyu of Dongmo. There must be some evidence in the warehouse, so Captain Tang took people to open it.

Unexpectedly, the poison rushed out... and four soldiers were scalded to death.

Fortunately, the poison is not contagious to humans.

Otherwise, they all would die.

After this blow, Captain Tang became much more cautious, thinking that the boss of Dongtang was the biological father of Ershuan, and the warehouse might contain a list of spies.

Therefore, Captain Tang took the risk to reopen the Dongtang warehouse.

As a result, two more soldiers died.

"Injuries are unavoidable in battle, so don't blame yourself. Keep a clear record of the deceased soldiers. In addition to the pension given by the court, I will apply to General Liang and our Liang Army will give us double the amount."

We have made a fortune, but we cannot let our brothers who died in battle suffer losses.

"I would like to thank you, Captain." Captain Tang solemnly thanked Captain Dai on behalf of the dead soldiers.

Uncle Qin saw that they had almost finished talking, and couldn't hold it in any longer, so he asked hurriedly, "By the way, Captain Tang, do you have any news about Dalang and the others? They have been out for several days, and I don't know if they have caught up with the young prince of Dongmo."

The reason why the Dongmo spies risked their lives to run towards the southwest cliff was because they had already dug many caves on the southwest cliff.

Before the rope ladder of the young prince Dongmo was cut by Dalang, he had safely entered the small cave inside the cliff.

Not only him, but most of the spies also entered the cave and saved their lives.

The young prince of Dongmo was extremely cunning. He used small caves to move to the southeast cliff, then went down from the southeast cliff and fled into the mountains.

Therefore, Captain Wei and his men came to nothing at the bottom of the southwest cliff.

Fortunately, the scouts were very capable and found the trace of the spy's escape. Wei Qianhu, Dalang, Lang Qianhu and others went to chase him.

Captain Tang said, "There's a letter back. Brother Jiang is safe. We killed a dozen spies. Unfortunately, we haven't caught the young prince Hongyu yet."

That dog is quite lucky and is more familiar with this mountain range than them. He is like a cunning rabbit and can run very fast!
