Chapter Eighty-Nine: The people's hearts are changeable, survival is difficult, and it is not uncommon for cities to change hands

On the day, the sun is shining, the autumn is strong, and the cool breeze is blowing, which is the best time to travel. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, in Taiyuan Mansion, it has long been quiet.

In the middle of the avenue, the carts are all piled up with all kinds of goods, from those chickens, ducks, fish, meat, melons, fruits and vegetables, to all kinds of silk and satin, gold, silver and jewelry, etc., can be said to have everything.

And in these carts, the group had already knelt on the ground, and the upper body was not an inch, ignoring the fact that it was the cold autumn wind at this moment, all of them were naked and did not wear any clothes, and the ones that were tied with straw rope were sturdy, so that the white skin was strangled with blood, and the two arms were also bent backwards and tied behind them with straw ropes to prevent any abnormal movement.

"Hey, why hasn't that Commander Xiao come yet?"

Raising his head, a fat man opened his eyes and looked into the distance, but there was no movement where the city gate was opened.

"I don't know. Maybe something went wrong on the way, so you're late?" another thin man asked in a low voice. A cool breeze blew suddenly, and he shivered, and said, "If that one doesn't show up again, then I'll have to freeze to death." As he spoke, he moved his hands, and the knot, which seemed to be sleepy, was loosened on the spot, and then his hands broke free from it, and put them on his chest and twisted, trying to generate a little heat in this way.

Seeing the thin man behaving like this, the fat man was immediately annoyed, and wanted to move his body to keep warm, but no matter how hard he struggled, his arms could not break free from the rope. In his frustration, he immediately scolded: "That damn Ah Da actually tied me so tightly. Looks like I'm going to have to let this bastard fuck off when I go back. But you're a flattering guy, and you have pillows in your knees like this, what a ghost, no wonder so many people fold them in your hands. He read it in pieces, obviously envious of the thin man.

"So what? Anyway, we're just ordinary people, just to beg for food. Whoever can give food will follow him, but that's all. Although it was a clever way to reduce the toss of the cold wind and the cold ground, the thin man also knew that if he wanted to get through this difficult time, he would have to have to blood this time.

After all, Xiao Feng is not a good man and a woman, and he will be fluttering because of the so-called sycophancy!

When the rest of the people heard the thin man's words, they were also concerned, and nodded again and again: "This is also true." ”

At this moment, from the city gate, a small servant hurriedly rushed in, and said in a panic, "Here they are! As soon as the words fell, a burst of thunder suddenly exploded, like a dry thunder on a sunny day, which immediately made everyone present tremble, with fear in their eyes, and a few tears fell.

"What is this? It's so loud? I thought it was a bolt from the blue. ”

"I don't know, it seems to be called a tiger squat cannon. The previous one was defeated because of this. ”

"Tiger squatting cannon? Could it be that the woman actually surrendered the tiger demon that day?"

“............”

Trembling, they looked at the uniform, dragon-like army coming in the distance, and they were already so frightened that they couldn't even speak.

And at the spacious city gate, a column of people and horses has appeared here, the leader is red, riding a tall white horse, it is Xiao Feng, and behind her is followed by two people, one is a young woman, with an indifferent face, the other is an elderly man, a little mysterious, these two people are Xiao Yue and Yu Wenwei, and behind them is a group of sergeants lined up in a military formation.

The blood-stained armor has not yet been removed, the sweat-soaked long knife has not been abandoned, and the spear that has been repeatedly charged has long since been broken.

After half a year of fierce battles, this army, which has only been established for less than a year, is already full of a killing atmosphere, and it is already frightening to stand in one place, let alone form an army to step into this former Taiyuan City.

And at this moment, under the guidance of the red banner, they all gathered under the command of the group, forming the army in front of them, ready to step into this Taiyuan Mansion, which had been ravaged by the Mongols several times.

"Looks like this group of people is ready, just waiting for us to accept it?"

Raising his eyes, Xiao Feng swept past the neatly arranged carts and all kinds of reward materials, and swept over the people who were kneeling on the ground in front of the military formation, and his mouth couldn't help but have some disdain.

Before resisting, Kaicheng surrendered, no wonder the Jin Dynasty collapsed so quickly in previous years, and why can they continue to this day, and they can still hide in this Taiyuan city at ease.

However, this time, her purpose was not only those cattle and sheep, grain and grass, and all kinds of gold and silver treasures!

"Self-confidence is a good thing, but self-confidence can also be a bad thing. Opening his mouth, Yu Wenwei had already expected this: "Nahe monk Badu has always been brave, and he is a rare member of the Mongolian army. However, after all, he was born in the grassland, and if he talked about the cavalry vertical and horizontal, thousands of miles away, of course, he was only in the palm of his hand. If we talk about defending and besieging the city, how can they be comparable to the athletes of our Han family? What's more, they are just barbarians from outside the country, and although they have relied on force to seize the land of the Central Plains, they do not know anything about our Chinese classics and the affairs of farmland and cultivation, and they do not understand anything about the business of business and colonization, otherwise how can they cause resentment among the people and rebellions emerge one after another? Therefore, as long as Commander Xiao brings his troops, he will definitely be able to completely take over this Taiyuan city in one go. After that, we only need to annex all the savings of this Taiyuan Mansion, and the destruction of Nahe Monk Ba is just a matter of turning over hands. ”

Pulling the reins, Xiao Feng asked Bai Lin to stop, condescendingly swept over the group of officials who were kowtowing to the ground, and immediately whispered, "Then what do you think of next?"

"I guess it's the so-called dedication ceremony. The corners of his mouth curled, and Yu Wenwei replied with some disdain.

Sure enough, the bureaucrat in the middle immediately trembled, took off the official seal hanging on his chest with trembling hands, and then raised it respectfully, his knees were not straightened, so he moved to Xiao Feng little by little, and then said loudly: "Zhang Bangyi, the governor of Taiyuan Prefecture, welcomes Commander Xiao into the city." I have heard for a long time that the Red Phoenix Army has repeatedly fought with the Tartars, and has frustrated its edge several times, and the people in the city are full of enthusiasm, but they can only hate to be in the enemy camp and cannot meet them far away. ”

"Is that all?"

Raising his eyes, Xiao Feng swept over the dozens of carts placed in the distance, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

Those carts were not only full of all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry, but also dozens of carts full of grain, and faintly heard the sound of chickens and sheep crowing, obviously these things were quite abundant, fully enough to meet the food consumption of their soldiers within ten days.

But where did these things come from?

In Xiao Feng's heart, he was already suspicious!

Zhang Bangyi immediately nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, then I'll let my subordinates give these things to the ranked warriors?" and seeing a little promise on Xiao Feng's face, he stood up, waved his hand and said, "Everyone, hurry up and give these things to the Red Phoenix Army, don't let the ranked warriors slack off." ”

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers next to the carts immediately started to push the carts full of all kinds of things, and the heavy carts made the stone slabs on the avenue creak, and they were quickly sent to the front of the Red Phoenix Army's military formation, and then those people took out all the chickens, ducks, and fish meat, and prepared to stuff them into the hands of the soldiers of the Red Phoenix Army who were a little panicked.

Looking at this scene, Xiao Feng immediately called: "Li Mingcheng!"

Hearing this, dozens of people immediately stepped forward, and with a "bang" sound, the spears they were carrying behind them were immediately removed, and the extremely cold tips of the spears were aimed at everyone, and the group of people was immediately stopped. Then, Li Mingcheng walked out of this unit and said, "Everyone, just leave these things behind." We'll take care of that next. ”

In desperation, Zhang Bangyi looked aggrieved and looked at Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng only sneered in his heart, and then opened his mouth and said, "Zhang Zhizhou." Our army has its own rules, all the sergeants of the Chifeng Army are not allowed to take a stitch from the people, so please forgive the soldiers in the army for being reckless. But the enthusiasm of the people in Taiyuan City is obvious to all, so on behalf of all the soldiers of the Red Phoenix Army, I accept these things. As for the rest of the matter, I won't bother with you. ”

Speaking of this, she saw those people who were kneeling on the ground, and they didn't know whether they were frightened by the Red Phoenix Army or blown by the cold wind, so that their faces began to turn blue, but with a wave of their hands, a red light immediately swept out, enveloping everyone in front of them, and after a while, these people recovered their health, their complexions became ruddy, and even the stubborn diseases in their bodies for many years disappeared.

After Xiao Feng saw that everyone was recovering, he said, "There are more." At this time, it is autumn and winter, the weather is cold, the ground is cold, and it is not a place to live for a long time. You are still scattered, as for your safety, it is naturally arranged by our Red Phoenix Army. ”

"I see. ”

Although Zhang Bangyi still wanted to say something, when he saw Xiao Feng's already impatient look, he immediately endured it and led the group to the mansion as a guide.

After all, there are many classics in this palace, such as the roster of the inhabitants of the city, the division of land deeds for each farmland in the surrounding villages, the ledgers of the various warehouses used to store grain in the city, and even the judgment files accumulated over the years.

If Xiao Feng wanted to completely rule the entire Taiyuan City, it was extremely necessary to master these things.

And after these materials were cleared out one by one and properly classified, the General Staff began to count and study the things in them, so as to completely and thoroughly grasp the entire Taiyuan City.

After everything was processed, Xiao Feng finally showed a satisfied smile when she looked at the data that was presented to her, her five fingers clenched slightly, and looking at the distance, she couldn't help but feel that the pride in her chest was dry, and thousands of pride inevitably overflowed, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, there is a gap between it and what I expected, but these snakes, insects, rats and ants are just mantis arms to block the army, less than a sigh." You need to know that occupying this Taiyuan Mansion is only my first step, and the next thing is the main thing. ”
