  Chapter 591 588 [Death for money]

  The Datong army and the remnant soldiers from Yunnan entered through the city gate taking advantage of the chaos, but they did not attract the attention of the defenders.

   Instead, it was the refugees who were fleeing. Seeing the soldiers entering the city, they turned around and fled into the streets in fright.

   Zhao Mingzheng ordered that a group of fifty people be dispersed throughout the city. When you see someone burning, killing and looting, you don't need to ask for their identity, just kill them on the spot!

  Zhao Mingzheng led fifty people himself, and Wang Feng also led fifty people, and went straight to the direction of Mu's mansion.

   Soon they found a group of native soldiers, holding torches and smashing the door. The people living in it should be rich families, and they took their slaves to block the door, trying to prevent the soldiers from entering, and the soldiers got a ladder from nowhere and planned to climb over the wall.

   "Kill them all!" Zhao Mingzheng ordered.

  Wang Feng immediately pulled out his waist knife, led the soldiers under his command, and rushed towards the local soldiers in Shadingzhou.

  His whole family was cut down by Sha Dingzhou, and he bears a deep hatred. Now is the time for revenge.

  Those soldiers, seeing the army coming, could not see clearly in the dark, and thought it was their own people. Immediately yelled in local dialect: "Don't come to rob, this household belongs to us, you go find another rich person!"

  It wasn't until Wang Feng approached with a knife that the soldiers saw something was wrong, and just about to open their mouths to warn, a ray of knife light had already cut through.

  Wang Feng didn't stop after the murder, and rushed to the second soldier in the blink of an eye. The soldier raised his spear to stab him, but Wang Feng blocked it with a wrong step. The edge of the knife pressed down along the shaft of the spear and cut off the enemy's thumb.

"what…"

   As soon as the soldiers had time to scream, Wang Feng had already raised his knife and cut the enemy's throat quickly and accurately.

  Nope, the battle is over.

  The rest of the native soldiers were all dealt with by the Datong Army, and they had no resistance under the surprise attack.

  When Zhao Mingzheng and Wang Feng led the army to leave, the family hadn't reacted yet. The master took the servants, stepped on the ladder, climbed to the top of the wall, and watched quietly for a long time before he was sure that they were really safe.

   "Father, a group of soldiers came and killed the chieftain soldiers. After killing them, they left. I don't know where they went." The middle-aged man at the top of the wall shouted at the old man inside the wall.

  The old man bowed to the sky, and folded his palms together: "Amitabha, God bless. My Ye family has done good deeds for generations, it must be the sinful virtues accumulated by the ancestors, which moved the Jade Emperor to send the heavenly soldiers and heavenly future to rescue him."

   Such battles were quickly staged throughout the city.

  Thousands of chieftain soldiers lost their organizational system due to robbery, and they were basically in a group of more than a dozen people—too many people is not beautiful, and disputes will inevitably arise when dividing the spoils.

  The Datong army with a group of 50 people encountered a group of chieftain soldiers with a few or a dozen people. Under the surprise attack at night, the casualties were negligible.

   "The Han army has entered the city!"

  Finally some fish slipped through the net and ran fast without being killed, shouting and rushing all the way to report the news.

  It is easy to throw out soldiers, but it is difficult to get them back, not to mention that it is still at night.

  This kind of shouting and warning, not only failed to make the chieftain soldiers gather to resist, but also caused the chieftain soldiers to flee before encountering the enemy.

  The Tusi soldiers along the way heard that the Han soldiers had entered the city, but they didn't ask where the Han soldiers were from. They carried large and small bags, all of which were looted goods, and subconsciously fled towards the nearest city gate.

   "The reinforcements are here, Han Jia Erlang, follow me to kill the thief!"

  A young man in a Confucian shirt led a few house slaves to fight out. Many people with broken families picked up sticks out of hatred and joined the hunt.

  After chasing and killing two streets, hundreds of people gathered around the boy.

   "It's right in front, don't let them get away!" A house slave shouted.

  But a few chieftain soldiers were hunted down by angry people, and they were reluctant to throw away their belongings.

  Being so desperate for money, he was quickly caught up and beaten to death by the common people.

"my money!"

   "Don't grab it, it's my money!"

  The people who had been working together just now became confused in an instant, rushing to grab the property left behind by the chieftain soldier after his death.

  The young man scolded angrily: "You don't continue to chase the enemy, but you are fighting among yourself here. Are you worthy of your dead relatives? You are a hero, so follow me to kill the enemy...Kill!"

  The young man ran for a while, and when he turned around again, there were only two house slaves left beside him.

   Not to mention the common people, even several of their own domestic slaves robbed money there.

  The young man was so angry that he stomped his feet, but he had no choice but to take two loyal house slaves with him, and the three of them continued to chase and kill the chieftain soldiers.

   "Good boy, I'll help you!" Another young man followed, about twenty years old.

  The young man said while running: "I am Yang Zhenxian, named Rulin."

  The young man said: "Chen Zuocai, whose name is Uncle Ji."

  The boy did not leave a name in history, and he probably died in the chaos of war.

  Young people are somewhat famous. They first voted for Mu Tianbo and then for Li Dingguo. After the fall of the small imperial court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, Chen Zuocai still kept his hair and beard, and lived in seclusion in the mountains. He always wore a bamboo hat and rode a donkey when he went out, to show that he was inseparable from the Qing Dynasty and would never step on the land of the Qing Dynasty for life.

  In his later years, Chen Zuocai chiseled a stone for a coffin, and he would never bury it in the land of the Qing Dynasty.

   "Dangdang..."

"kill…"

"what…"

  In the streets ahead, there were sounds of fighting and killing.

  Yang Zhenxian immediately cheered up, quickened his pace and ran, holding up the scribe sword and shouting: "Don't worry, general, I'll help you all!"

  Chen Zuocai also quickened his pace.

   After a while of sprinting, they finally came to the battle site, and the group of chieftain soldiers had been killed.

  The Datong army turned around and left, ignoring the property on the ground at all.

  Yang Zhenxian was very surprised, cupped his hands and clasped his fists: "Everyone, please stay! You have saved countless people in Kunming, and it is even more difficult not to be deceived by money. Please be respected by Wansheng!"

An officer turned around and said, "If you have a heart, young man, you will gather people and send all the unowned wealth in the city to the government tomorrow morning. The Datong Army is not greedy for the money, it will be used to help the people, and it will take a lot to deal with the aftermath." silver."

   "Wansheng must deliver the goods!" Yang Zhenxian bowed again.

  Then, these Datong troops left, and they chased and killed the chieftain soldiers everywhere.

  Chen Zuocai looked at the soldiers going away, and couldn't help sighing: "The land is full of wealth and goods, and they don't take a cent. It is not a fluke that the Datong court won the world to train such a strong soldier."

"That's right," Yang Zhenxian said with emotion, "Whether it's the army of the Ming Dynasty or the soldiers of the chieftain, the military discipline is strict if they can't plunder. These soldiers in front of them don't even take their own wealth. Also! The soldiers are like this, and the officials of the Datong court can also be seen. Tomorrow I will serve the court, do you want to join me, Uncle Ji?"

  Chen Zuocai smiled and said, "Let's go together."

  Yang Zhenxian said: "There are more than a dozen bags of goods here, it's really hard to move them away. Let's guard them and send them to the Datong Army tomorrow."

  Chen Zuocai found a sack, which was bulging, and he didn't know what it contained. Immediately sat down, using the sack as a backrest, looked at the night sky and said to himself: "The Datong army took Yunnan, and this troubled world is finally over. I don't know when the emperor will resume the imperial examination."

  Yang Zhenxian also sat down cross-legged: "At that time, let's go to Beijing to catch the exam together."

   "My home is in Menghua (Weishan)," Chen Zuocai said with a smile, "When will you go to Dali, brother, you can come to Menghua to find me and take you to visit Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake together."

  …

  Mu Mansion.

  The Mu family has too many treasures. In addition to gold and silver, there are also treasures such as Buddha capstone and amber.

  According to the history books, all the treasures of the Mu family are packed in boxes, and a box weighs a hundred catties. Fifty boxes are surrounded by wooden boards to form a warehouse, and a total of more than 250 warehouses are surrounded. And these... are just some of them.

  The road in front of Mu's house was blocked by cars.

  Hundreds of the most elite chieftain soldiers did not participate in the robbery in the city. They were responsible for guarding the treasures. There are also many captured civilian husbands, as well as the domestic slaves left by the Mu family, who were ordered to move out the treasures box by box.

   "Mistress, it's not good, the Han soldiers have entered the city!" Several disabled soldiers fled in panic.

  The Wan family was counting the wooden boxes according to the list, and trembled when he heard the words: "Where did the Han army come from? Is it the Datong army of the imperial court, or the Han army of the Chuxiong rebellion?"

   Those defeated soldiers shook their heads again and again: "I don't know."

   "A bunch of wimps!"

  The Wan family cursed and ordered: "Hurry up and send the property out of the city, and don't move the rest."

  This woman was extremely greedy. The enemy army had already entered the city. Instead of running for her life, she actually wanted to take away the treasure in front of her.

  The chieftain soldiers guarding the treasure were a little at a loss when faced with this order. They have been fighting with Shadingzhou all year round, and they know what to do at this moment. Isn't it suicide if they continue to **** the treasure?

  Wan Shi said angrily: "Are you all deaf? Hurry up and get on the road, and rush out of the city while taking advantage of the chaos!"

  Perhaps because of Wan's reputation, the chieftain soldiers did not dare to disobey the order, and actually escorted the treasure out of the city slowly. The speed is too fast to be fast, and the treasure is too heavy, so it can only be pulled slowly by horses or mules.

   They only walked half a street, and Zhao Mingzheng and Wang Feng led troops to kill them.

   "Protect the treasure, protect the treasure," Wan Shi stood on a carriage, pointed at the Datong army ahead, and said, "Kill them and rush over!"

  The chieftain soldiers looked at each other. They had been frightened when they heard that the enemy had entered the city. Now that the way forward is blocked, and there is another crazy woman commanding blindly, how dare you really obey the order to charge and kill? They don't even know how many enemies have entered the city. Even if they kill the enemy in front of them, what should they do if they continue to **** the treasure and be surrounded?

   "Run!"

   A chieftain soldier muttered.

  The sound was not loud, and the influence was not small, and more than a dozen chieftain soldiers fled immediately.

   "Hurry up and kill... Stop, don't run!"

   When Wan urged him again, he found that most of the soldiers had already fled.

  Some chieftain soldiers even broke open the wooden box, took out one or two pieces of gold and silver, put them in their arms, and fled to the back alleyway.

"kill!"

  Zhao Ming was leading a charge. Fifty Datong troops and fifty Yunnan remnant soldiers rushed towards hundreds of elite chieftain soldiers.

  As soon as the Datong army charged, the remaining chieftain soldiers also moved, and they all turned around and ran away. And the coachman, folk husbands, house slaves and the like ran faster than rabbits, and in an instant only Wan Shi was left standing there alone.

  Wan Shi looked at the long line of convoys, which were filled with his own treasures, and his heart ached as if bleeding.

  At this moment, she is not afraid of death, but reluctant to part with those treasures.

  Wan Shi was too lazy to look at the Datong soldiers rushing over. He got out of the car and picked up a fallen Buddha capstone, and reached out to caress it with great nostalgia.

"what!"

  The moment his fingers touched the Buddha's Capstone, Wan Shi was kicked over and then pushed to the ground. The blood from the forehead had stained the top stone of the Buddha red, and the golden top of the Buddha was stained with blood.
