Chapter 905: Ninety-Two Three: Private Collection
Not to mention, to the surprise of Dong Ce and others, although these intruding cavalry looked weak and vulnerable at all, they were still quite oily and watery. For example, not far in front of Dong Ce, the corpse of the intrusive army that fell to the ground, a family member searched out a small burden from the saddle of his war horse, opened the baggage, and saw that there was a lot of silver inside, some broken silver, and some small silver ingots, adding up to dozens of taels. In addition to the silver, there are a few pieces of gold leaf the size of a child's palm, and even a few gold hairpins, gold earrings, gold rings and other jewelry.
At a glance, you know that these things are not known where the invading cavalry stole them from?
The property found on the cavalry alone was worth at least a hundred taels.
And looking around, when the soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, they found a lot of packages like this. Dong Ce looked at it and nodded slightly, with this entry, he could make up for the money spent on buying horses from the Empress Dowager Sutai.
It took about a quarter of an hour to clean up the battlefield, and all the finances were piled up in front of Dong Ce, more than half a person high, like a hill. This hill of silver, gold, and jewels of all colors, gold and silver jewelry, glows in the sun.
Before cleaning up the battlefield, Dong Ce had already issued an order, stating that all property, even a copper coin, was not allowed to be kept privately, and all must be handed over. And by the staring eyes of those leaders, no one dared to do anything wrong.
At least Dong Ce didn't see it, but if he didn't see it, it doesn't mean that others didn't see it.
Alatan Ulla suddenly jumped off his horse, and his body, which weighed more than three hundred pounds, slammed into the ground like a giant steel ingot, making the people around him feel as if the ground was shaking. He strode up to one of the Chahar elites, his head bowed, his eyes fixed on him.
He didn't say a word, but the Chahar elite was already horrified, his face was pale, and there was sweat on his forehead. After all, being stared at by such a giant who has always had a brave and invincible reputation in the Chahar Department is really a very stressful thing.
This Chahar elite had seen Alatan Ullah before, but this was the first time he had been so close to him, and it was not until Alatan Ullah stood in front of him that he felt his own insignificance and powerlessness, as if his huge hand as a fan could crush himself in one fell swoop.
Even when there is nothing to do, Alatan Ulla stands in front of his house, he will be afraid in his heart, not to mention that he still has a ghost in his heart at this time.
Seeing that there seemed to be something wrong with his expression, Dong Ce's eyes narrowed slightly.
Alatan U stretched out his large, fan-like hand, and his voice was slow, like iron sand flowing: "Take out what is in your arms." ”
The elite body of the Chahar Department trembled violently, but he stiffened his mouth and forced a smile: "What is it? What did you say about Alatanula? I don't understand! ”
"I told you to hand over what you were hiding!"
Alatan Ullah suddenly became furious and shouted angrily at the elite of the Nachahar tribe.
As soon as he roared in anger, his voice was like thunder, and the person who shook seemed to have his eardrum about to burst, and it hurt for a while. And such a huge emotional transformation between his previous extreme calm and extreme anger at this time made people tremble in their hearts, only to feel that this person was so moody.
The elite of the Chahar Department was so frightened that they couldn't stand steadily, knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to Dong Ce again and again: "The adults spare their lives, and the little ones are just confused for a while." ”
Dong Ce looked at him and said lightly: "Take out the things!" ”
"Yes." The elite of the Chahar Department took out a small cloth bag from his arms, his hands were trembling all the time, the burden in his hand was not steady, and it fell to the ground with a bang, but it was not silver, but a small gold ingot. Looking at this bag of gold ingots, I am afraid that it will not be less than thirty or fifty taels. According to the current exchange ratio of gold and silver, this package of gold is nearly five hundred taels of silver.
I don't know if the elite of the Chahar Department was lucky or unlucky, and I don't know who found such a bag of gold. But it was precisely because of the gold that he found that he was fascinated by wealth, and he even had the idea of swallowing gold alone, if it was silver, maybe he would not have this idea. But the matter has come to this, the mistake has been made, that is, it is useless to say anything.
Alatan Ulla looked at Dong Ce, sighed deeply, and said in a heavy voice: "Master Dong, it was I who had no way to discipline him and made him make a big mistake, please look at my face, I can spare his life and let him continue to serve you." ”
Dong Ce stared at Alatan Ula's resolute and solemn face, and sighed deeply in his heart. It was only at this moment that he really realized what kind of person Alatan Ula was, originally this person had hidden the gold, Dong Ce didn't see it, Alatan Ulla could have hidden it, but he chose to tell Dong Ce. And after he exposed the matter, he took the initiative to take the fault on himself and interceded for this person.
This person is really open-minded and fair-minded, but he also values love and righteousness, and is quite responsible! Dong Ce was really grateful to the Empress Dowager Su Tai at this time, and the Empress Dowager Su Tai really helped herself a lot by sending such a person with good skills and good character to herself. There is such a person, even if there are no three hundred elites of the Chahar Department, Dong Ce does not feel a pity.
It's just that this time, Dong Ce can't follow him.
Dong Ce said in a deep voice: "Alatan Ula, in fact, you made two mistakes just now. First, you say that you are not good at discipline, but you are wrong. It's not that you don't discipline well, it's that I don't discipline well, and everyone is my subordinate, including you. He makes a mistake, don't blame you, you can intercede for him, but you don't have to take all the fault on yourself. Second, you are wrong to intercede for him. Before cleaning up the battlefield, the officer had already told everyone what would happen if they hid their belongings. Therefore, if you intercede for him, I cannot agree, and if I agree, I will ignore the rules. Since then. If you plead today and tomorrow he pleads, this military discipline will be completely corrupted. ”
Dong Ce glanced at Alatan Ula deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Do you understand? ”
Alatan Ullah was also sweating from his forehead at this time, he was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "The subordinates understand, it is the subordinates who are wrong. ”
Dong Ce nodded, faced everyone, and raised his voice: "You were handed over to me by the Empress Dowager Su Tai, and I promised her that I would try my best to bring you back and let you return to your hometown with honor." But you must also obey my orders and strictly implement them without discount, if anyone violates my orders and violates my military law, I will deal with it in the same way, and I will never show mercy! ”
Everyone was solemn, Dong Ce waved his hand: "Leave here first, and we'll talk about other things when we return to the camp." Wang Hun, find two people to watch him. ”
"Yes."
