"Pass on this prince's order——"
"The three armies are stationed in Jucheng. The personal barracks seal the treasury and shops; the new army rests on the spot and collects property and food." Xiong Wuliang gave the order.
The surrounding Chu army generals cheered up, clasped their fists and raised their hands: "I will obey the Lord's order!"
Xiong Wuliang frowned and added: "Remember, the order given to you is to search for valuables, not to massacre the city!"
"Without my order, no killing or adultery can be carried out in the city!"
"Of course...if there is resistance, there will be no mercy." Xiong Wuliang waved his hand, indicating that the order could be passed on.
The Chu army was well-trained and quickly took over the city's defense, and then followed Xiong Wuliang's order and began to plunder the city's wealth.
Of course, this search for property also involves skills - those idiots certainly have nothing to rob. Even the people of Qi, who have always been known as rich, only have some food and a small amount of iron money in the homes of ordinary people.
Those who want to be robbed are the rich households! Rich family! Officials!
Of course, the Quyang New Army learned from Quyang Army and Shaohu Army... They are no strangers to this kind of work, and can even be said to be comfortable with it.
There is no need to rob, as long as an order is announced - ordering the wealthy families in the city to donate money and food voluntarily, but the later people pay, the more money they will have to pay!
So these wealthy families rushed to pay.
Even forgot to resist...
The people of Qi State were very cooperative, and the people of Chu State had no excuse for killing - the Lord had orders and they were not allowed to kill rashly. The military law and discipline of the new army trained by Shaohu was always very strict.
A large amount of looted materials piled up in the city lord's mansion.
The 8,000 new troops forced almost all the things with wheels in the city, and sent these things back to Wuyang day and night, and then transported them back to the fief via the Song Dynasty.
…
"Master! I'm rich!" Zhao Hua's eyes turned green.
This country of Qi is so rich!
If you don't rob the people of Qi, it will be in vain to rob the whole world!
Xiong Wuliang took the account book handed over by Zhao Hua, glanced at it briefly, and then his eyes widened in shock!
Zhao Hua added: "My lord, these are just the things stored in Jucheng's treasury... If we include the materials that the new army plundered from the people, there will probably be much more!"
Xiong Wuliang looked at the account books carefully——
There are nearly ten thousand gold in cash stored in the sealed warehouse of the personal barracks!
My day!
Some small countries with economic difficulties do not even have so much money in their treasury!
Brand new tanks, two hundred!
Enough swords, halberds, shields, drums and tents to arm 30,000 people...
There are even eleven huge granaries filled with food!
Hold the grass! Get rich!
Xiong Wuliang took a deep breath, and his heart was filled with the joy of getting rich... With all this money and food, it was tantamount to destroying a small country... Qi State was really too rich!
The total value of the items counted in these warehouses and shops alone has exceeded 50,000 gold... If the items looted by the private sector are also included, at least 70,000 to 80,000 gold can be taken from the robbery of Jucheng this time!
It’s all so cheap, Xiong Wuliang!
As the saying goes——
When my neighbor collects grain, I store my gun, and my neighbor is my granary.
Ugh!
Since Xiong Wuliang traveled to this era, he has spent several years of hardship (deception) and abduction (abduction) and camp (cheating), but he has not earned so much money in total!
This battle was so worth it!
"Transport everything back to the fiefdom!"
"We will transfer three thousand wheelbarrows from the fiefdom!" Xiong Wuliang waved his hand.
At this moment, he finally understood deeply why Li Zicheng had undergone various changes and behaviors after entering Beijing at the age of 25.
How have we country bumpkins ever seen such abundant wealth?
…
Chu State, the capital of Ying.
Marquis Quyang won a great victory in Qinnan, annihilating 60,000 Qi troops!
This hot news quickly spread throughout the streets.
King Huai of Chu personally read out Xiong Wuliang's military report in public, and then said to the ministers: "My lords, at first you advised me not to attack Qi... Now my great nephew has achieved another great victory, and you and others still have What to say?"
The ministers looked at each other, speechless.
This Quyanghou Xiong Liang is really shocking!
He actually achieved such a great victory again!
Since we can be located above the court, then everyone is not a mediocre person - all the ministers know in their hearts that the main force of Qi State is contained in Jixi by the coalition forces. After the victory of Qinnan, Qi State is no longer able to defend the large territory in the south.
Xiong Wuliang is going to make a great contribution this time.
Zhaoju took a deep breath, stood up, and said with joy on his face: "Congratulations to the great king! Congratulations to the great Chu!"
"Marquis Quyang is truly a good general of the country!"
The officials looked ugly, but at this time they had to stand up and congratulate... Qi State was already the mortal enemy of Chu State, so they had to celebrate for achieving such a victory.
It's just damn Xiong Wuliang... This person is becoming more and more powerful. How can we get rid of him in the future?
King Chu Huai patted his belly and smiled.
This Xiong Wuliang always surprises me!
…
When Zhaoju returned to his house, his face quickly darkened. He went straight to the study with a cane and locked himself in the study for two hours without even eating dinner.
The study door was pushed open, and Zhao Shu came forward anxiously, his face full of anxiety: "Dad, have you heard?"
"Damn it, Mi Liang won another battle!"
Zhaoju didn't answer. After thinking for a long time, he waved his hand——
"According to reliable information, Xiong Wuliang has 10,000 private soldiers under his command, and they are all fierce soldiers."
"Such a force is too big to lose."
"The king is so stupid that he doesn't take it seriously...but Prince Mi Heng is a normal person. Even though the relationship between the two of them was once very good, as long as I use some tricks, I can definitely drive a wedge between the prince and Mi Liang."
Zhao Shu was overjoyed and full of expectations.
Zhaoju smiled sinisterly again: "But this method is still too slow to take effect... I have a plan that can make Xiong Wuliang die a violent death!"
"Originally I didn't want to implement this strategy, but Xiong Wuliang actually won on the battlefield, so I had to do it!"
Zhaoju took the banknotes, considered them for a moment, and then began to write with his head down, changing a few strokes from time to time. After a full hour, he put down the pen in his hand and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Zhao Shu's face was full of expectation, waiting for the pen and ink at the side. The more he looked, the more frightened he became, and finally he opened his mouth in shock: "Such a vicious plot..."
Zhaoju glanced at Zhaoshu coldly: "Shu'er, I need you to go and do it yourself... Remember, don't let the news leak out."
Zhao Shu's face was full of joy, and his face showed the joy of revenge: "Father, don't worry...this time, Xiong Wuliang will definitely die in Qi Kingdom!"
Zhaoju blew out the candle and smiled slightly: "Xiong Wuliang has always relied on force and the king's favor, and does not take Zhao family seriously... Today is the time for him to pay the price!"
"Xiao'er, you have to remember - strength does not determine everything, tactics and strategies are the most important... From now on in Chu State, anyone who disobeys our Zhao family will have to pay the price with blood!"
Zhao Shu expressed that he had been taught, then received the letter with the ink still wet, carefully put it into a wooden box, put it close to his body, ordered more than a dozen Zhao family songs, and took off all the things on his body that could prove his identity. The objects left Yingdu at night.
Heading straight north...
