Chapter 92: Fighting from both sides

As soon as Xia Wanchun's words fell, he felt a tightness in his neck, a big hand was pinched on his neck, and he was just about to resist, but the strength on his neck suddenly increased, making him lose the strength to resist in an instant.

It was lifted off the horse so softly, and there was no power to resist.

"What's the matter, the secret spy department can't enter the eyes of the eldest young master now?"

After hearing Han Lingshan's voice, Xia Wanchun sighed, no longer intended to resist, and could only soften his body and let others sway around.

It stands to reason that it is a very humiliating thing to be pinched by the neck and have no power to resist.

However, it still depends on who makes the shot.

If it was Han Lingshan, Xia Wanchun felt that he could bear it completely.

Because this has nothing to do with dignity and glory, if you can't beat it, you can't beat it, whether it's at the level of wisdom or force.

"What are you going to do in the palace?"

Back in a mansion that was neither too big nor too small, Han Lingshan finally began to ask.

Xia Wanchun untied the little baby girl tied to her chest, handed it to Han Lingshan and said, "Get justice for this child." ”

Han Lingshan skillfully held the little baby girl in the crook of his arm, and said while looking at the child: "How are you going to seek justice?" ”

"I'm going to beat the emperor."

"Well, and then what?"

"And watch him finish."

"And then?"

"It's gone, people die and debts are gone."

Han Lingshan sneered and said: "The target we want to liquidate is not only the emperor, but also the entire corrupt Ming Dynasty, they have embezzled so much people's fat and people's ointment, they have to spit it out." ”

Xia Wanchun said: "You mean that Mu Tiantao is liquidating?" ”

Han Lingshan nodded and said: "Mu Tiantao's courage is insufficient, he only knows how to liquidate the nobles, and he doesn't know how to liquidate those corrupt officials, profiteers, big landlords, and heroes. ”

Xia Wanchun said: "From Mu Tiantao's point of view, it is right to do this, he can't be in the north. The capital set off a frenzy of liquidation, in that case, the city would not be able to be defended. ”

Han Lingshan sneered and said: "Can the city guard our, the old dynasty in the land of Gyeonggi has the most poison, and it can't be changed without a big change." ”

Xia Wanchun said in surprise: "You mean to say that we are on Li Hongji's side this time, right?" ”

Han Lingshan shook his head and said: "As before, things will be done by Li Hongji, we will receive the results, okay, hold your sister-in-law, recently the family members of Lantian secret spies are going to withdraw to Lantian, just let them take your sister-in-law back and hand it over to your mother." ”

"It's not my sister." Xia Wanchun frowned.

Han Lingshan sneered; "Now it is."

Xia Wanchun looked at the little baby girl who had returned to his arms, and found that the little guy had woken up and was smiling at him......

Emperor Chongzhen stood on the main hall for a long time, and Chongzhen felt that he was extremely powerful at this time.

Especially when he saw the mountains of silver ingots and gold ingots piled up on the main hall, his chest was full of pride, and with this money, he thought that he was enough to hold the capital and wait for the army of King Qin.

One million 740,000 taels of silver, just piled up into a mountain and placed on the main hall, it is heavy, like the ballast stone of the Ming Dynasty, which is enough to stabilize the broken ship of the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, Mu Tiantao is extremely unreasonable, he actually dragged the abbot behind the horse and ran, poor abbot is old and weak, where can he withstand such torture, in less than a pillar of incense, his clothes are torn, and his skin and flesh are open and he complains bitterly in front of the people in the city, but Mu Tiantao listens to it.

He was not satisfied with getting 100,000 taels of silver from the Guozhang Mansion, and even entered the inner house, regardless of the dignity of his daughter, forcibly searched, and found sixteen large boxes under my mother's bed, but I didn't know that this was my mother's dowry......

Woo woo, Your Majesty, the concubine knows that state affairs are difficult, but even if it is difficult, she can't be so disrespectful of royal face......"

Chongzhen glanced at Empress Zhou and said, "I remember that when I launched the fundraiser, the national ruler once said that the family had no money to spare, and there were more than 200 people in the house, and 6,000 taels of silver were saved for me from between my teeth.

Mu Tiantao didn't do anything wrong, didn't he leave a family of 10,000 taels of silver for the national master? ”

At this moment, Chongzhen was in no mood to explain anything to Queen Zhou.

In his heart, he hated these nobles more than he hated the world's rogues and slaves.

"Wang Chengen, informed Zhang Jinyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and ordered him to immediately go down 800 miles to expedite, and told Bai Guangen, Wang Pu, Cao Bianjiao, and Wu Sangui to go south to King Qin immediately, and the expenses they needed to be doubled after arriving in the capital.

At the same time, he ordered Shun Tianfu to tell the people that whoever struggles to kill thieves will be given generously. ”

With money, Chongzhen felt that his lifeless court seemed to come to life again.

Officials also have the strength to get things done.

For officials, as long as Mu Tiantao can't raise money for himself, it is a great thing.

As for the nobles who suffered, they really couldn't sympathize.

The situation of the Ming Dynasty is so bad that it is about to collapse, and they understand this more clearly than the emperor, and for them, the collapse of the dynasty is also something they are extremely unwilling to see.

Now, the rogue soldiers are pressing, and they also want to make a last stand.

Seeing that the last 500,000 taels of silver was sent to the palace, Mu Tiantao breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that this silver could not save the Ming Dynasty, at least it could give the emperor a little more courage to resist.

Turning his head, Mu Tiantao looked at the cold gaze of Chunlai in the crowd, and he also understood that from this moment on, he had become the person the most wanted to get rid of by the Ming nobles.

He doesn't care.

He only cares about the upcoming battle, and this battle will be the most important thing in his life.

The silver of the white flowers was taken out, and Mu Tiantao obtained 8,000 warriors who were willing to fight to the death for money.

The guerrilla general of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was the official position that Mu Tiantao obtained after raising more than two million taels of military salaries for the emperor.

The task of raising military salaries has been completed, and Mu Tiantao immediately began the arduous military training.

Every day, he would arrive at the school on time, the first to come, the last to go, every day, he would personally participate in any military training, every time it was time to rest, he would go into the group of soldiers, eat with them, live together, and talk about the consequences of the thieves entering the city.

The reason he instilled in his soldiers was very simple - victory, drinking wine and eating meat, the whole family was happy, defeated, his wife was separated, and the family was ruined.

In fact, his brutality in the capital won the favor of most of the soldiers, and the aura of Mu Wangfu also made the young soldiers regard him as a general to follow.

Zhu Yujiao came to see Mu Tiantao every day, and every time she would stay in the school military field for a long time, her eyes never left Mu Tiantao's figure, sometimes she was shy and timid, sometimes she would burst into tears, and at most, she just looked at this only man she could rely on.

When Li Hongji's army approached Tianjin, the capital finally closed all the city gates......

It's just that in the dead of night, the city gates will become crowded again, and countless wealthy families have left the capital and fled into the wilderness and into the mountains in order to protect themselves.

However, their escape from the capital was not smooth.

Because outside the capital, some wealthy officials, nobles, royal relatives, and big families can always meet some powerful bandits.

These robbers don't kill people, they don't humiliate their ladies, they just want one thing - money!

Even if it is money, they will not take it all, but will leave some living silver for the victim.

The only exception is that Tai Kang Bo Zhang Guoji's family not only did not be robbed of a penny by the robbers, but even the robbers told Tai Kang Bo Zhang Guoji's family members where is the best place to hide.

Tai Kangbo Zhang Guoji was one of the few people who did his best to help the emperor when the Ming Emperor was raising donations.

Therefore, it is clear to everyone who the robbers outside the city gate belong to.

That is, because there are vicious robbers outside the city, the number of large families who want to leave the capital to avoid disaster has decreased rapidly.

After Xia Wanchun returned to the mansion where he lived, he took off the mask on his face, first went to the bedroom to see the poor little baby girl, and saw that the child was beating in the arms of the nurse, so he returned to the hall and let out a long breath with his feet on the low table.

He was able to get more than three million taels of silver in half a month, which was really beyond his expectations.

He used to think that the Ming Dynasty was very poor, the people were very poor, and the capital was very poor, but after this incident, he understood a truth - the capital is really rich, but not in the treasury, not in the people, but in the hands of officials, nobles, eunuchs, big businessmen, and big landlords.

All the money was taken away, and soon it was turned into food, medicine, cloth, and supplies for reconstruction.

It's an economic issue.

Lantian officials are now very skilled in disaster relief.

Disaster relief and epidemic prevention are one, Xia Wanchun understands that as long as the thieves enter the capital, his historical mission will be completed, and he will soon face Li Dingguo's southward legion and Yunyang's eastward marching corps.

There is no army in the world that can face these two modern legions with a total of more than 200,000 horses at the same time.

The number of artillery pieces alone exceeded two thousand.

These cannons have long been out of the original state of firing large iron balls, and there are five types of shells in the Yunyang Legion alone, and each type of cannonball is carefully selected and retained.

Flowering bombs, fire oil bombs, phosphorus fire bombs, city breaking bombs, close grenades.

Each shell was developed according to the actual needs of the war, and the power is amazing.

Xia Wanchun knew that the master was waiting for Chongzhen's death, and once Chongzhen died, the master could hold high the banner of "avenging the emperor" and quickly dominate the world, and inherit all the inheritance of the Ming Dynasty by the way.

Then, open up a new world!

The little baby girl's quacky laughter came from the bedroom, Xia Wanchun stood up and laughed, then put on the mask again, checked the equipment on her body, and then walked out of the place where she lived lightly.

After merging with a group of men in black, they once again merged into the vast darkness.
