Chapter 284
Why did Liu Bu hand over Zhang Xianzhong to Wang Zhiwen? It wasn't just to support him and let him take care of Zhang Xianzhong, so he could send his people to search for the property of the bandits alone.
Liu Bu's troops were very rare in the Ming army, and they had independent intelligence departments. His intelligence departments pointed out that Zhang Xianzhong's army had a large amount of money and property because they were bandits. The so-called bandits were bandits who were moving around and had no place to live.
So they will only bring their belongings with them and cannot put them in other cities.
And they also believe that while they have a lot of wealth, these finances must be gold, silver, jewelry, and other things, such as copper coins. I guess the bandits are unwilling to carry them, because they are all moving around quickly and have little meaning.
So they believed that if the opportunity came, they should immediately loot Zhang Xianzhong's finances.
Liu Bu led his trusted troops to loot in this action. They entered the bandit camp and finally lived up to their expectations. The bandit camp did indeed have a large amount of property, which was all in Zhang Xianzhong's camp, and was under the supervision of some of his personal soldiers. Now that Zhang Xianzhong is finished, these personal soldiers have also fled everywhere. Some people even want to rob some property and run away, but these people can't escape, because if you think about it, there are hundreds of kilograms of things on them, which is difficult to escape.
Why do these people bring hundreds of kilograms of things? Unless they don’t bring any money, if they are in the area, they can’t control their hands, and they will take them until they can’t move. At the beginning, when you move hundreds of kilograms of things, there is no big problem, but over time, the problem arises. They flee with hundreds of kilograms of things and are easily captured by the soldiers of the Liu family army.
It would be fine if they surrender obediently. If they dare to resist, they would kill them without hesitation.
Mi Zhu's confidant general Xiao Ning had firmly controlled Zhang Xianzhong's camp. There were not many things here, only hundreds of big trucks, but these big trucks were filled with gold, silver and jewelry. Liu Bu was excited and waved his fists repeatedly.
I knew that the bandits had a lot of money, but I didn’t expect that they would have so much. As expected, being robbers means having money. What else can you make money faster than robbing these days?
You should know that money is a good thing. They can be used to buy all kinds of things. More importantly, when he is chased by the government army, he can even buy money for the government army chasing them.
Liu Bu heard a rumor that the bandits were surrounded by champions and blocked and chased them, but they escaped several times in the encirclement. How did they escape? They were not just bribed the government troops surrounding them, and then they fled.
Because these officials and soldiers also know how powerful the bandits are, they have encircled and intercepted the bandits, but if they are forced to force the bandits to death and they will not have a good life. The best way is to take their continued money and continue to chase and kill them.
This time, Liu Bu and his friends unexpectedly attacked Zhang Xianzhong's troops and destroyed the other party in one fell swoop. The other party had no time to play this trick, and then he destroyed it. Seeing so many gold, silver and jewelry, Liu Bu was very happy. He knew that as long as these things were in hand, their trip would not be in vain. Even if the emperor did not show any of their trip, they would have made a fortune.
As a regular official army, the Liu family army has ambitions, so it is impossible for him to go out to grab money or things, but someone robbed them on his behalf. He robbed these robbers and ate them. This is completely fine. In fact, not only are they just robbed the black man, but they also do some shameful things, such as they robbed Jimo County and killed the Fan family among the eight major imperial merchants in Shanxi. As long as it was not spread, they dared to do it.
Now that they defeated Zhang Xianzhong, the first thing they did was to attack Zhang Xianzhong's wealth.
You should know that Zhang Xianzhong has spread so many places in the world and occupied Fengyang, Zhongdu, so he must have plundered a lot of treasures. They could not hand over these treasures to the court, nor could they share them with Wang Zhiwen and others. They would only fart in their own beds - swallowing them up.
The Liu family army is an army with very high welfare, and welfare is the guarantee of their army's combat effectiveness and cohesion, which means huge investment, so they try every means to prepare more money and grain. Without these money and grain as support, they will not be able to fight this battle.
Liu Bu was so happy after discovering these treasures.
He immediately ordered his trusted troops to transfer these things urgently, and then brought hundreds of trucks of food, weapons, silver, cloth and other things. These were handed over to deal with Wang Zhiwen and the others. Although he was not afraid of Wang Zhiwen at all, the surface explanation and response were still necessary. This is called hiding secrets. You must know that if everyone in the world knew that they were robbing Zhang Xianzhong's treasure, they would become the target of everyone, but if no one knew, it would be different.
Who said that Zhang Xianzhong must have a lot of treasures? Liu Bu did not agree with this and would not admit it. Whoever thought there was one, asked him to find it himself? Anyway, he found hundreds of trucks of food, cloth and other things in Zhang Xianzhong's camp. As for the rumored gold, silver and treasures, he has not found it yet. This is also the reason why he shirked the responsibility to the court, Hong Chengshou or Zhu Dadian. Anyway, there is no evidence, and no one can do anything to him. He will definitely take this treasure alone and will not share it with others.
This was also one of the goals of Liu Bu and his team's trip. He did not expect to defeat Zhang Xianzhong, but after they defeated Zhang Xianzhong's army, the first thing they thought of was to seize the other party's treasures and take over this batch of treasures.
Now that I have seen this batch of so many treasures, the generals led by Liu Bu are happy. The Liu family army is not like other troops. When everyone sees treasures, they are desperately robbing them because they have strict military disciplines. In addition, they also have their own dividend standards, which is how much each person should get. Everyone understands very clearly that this is like the salary plus equity incentives in later generations, so the morale of these people is still very high. Moreover, everyone is staring at so many eyes, and no one dares to reach out to this and want to take it alone.
Liu Bu smiled so hard that his face turned aside today. He never expected that the first battle in the Liu family army in the true sense would defeat Zhang Xianzhong, who was famous all over the world. It can be said that the Liu family army officially became famous, officially entered the sight of all heroes in the world, and officially became the world's best-ranked strong army.
In the past, the world-strong army was composed of Hong Chengchou's Qi army, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army, and the Waiguan Ning army, etc. Now their Qi army has officially entered one of the world-strong army.
No matter how good they are, they will be enough to become famous just by defeating the bandits and defeating Zhang Xianzhong.
Liu Bu and the others took action very quickly. As soon as they transferred the treasures to some ordinary finance, Wang Zhiwen rushed over.
After all, Wang Zhiwen, the prefect of Anqing, was not a fool. After completely controlling Zhang Xianzhong, he immediately thought that this person was a great thief who had broken Fengyang and ran the world, and there must be a lot of treasures hidden around him.
So he rushed to see it immediately and tried to get a piece of the pie. When Liu Bu saw Wang Zhiwen, he immediately blamed him and said, "Master Wang, why don't you look at Zhang Zhei? If you let him escape, no one will be able to take care of it."
Wang Zhiwen quickly explained: "General Liu, you can rest assured that Zhang Zhe has been firmly controlled by my official and there will never be any trouble. I can assure you that if there is any trouble, I will only ask."
After all, Wang Zhiwen was a regular Jinshi and a prefect of a government official. He still had certain confidence. He still dared to call himself the official in front of Liu Bu, and he could not call himself the official in front of Liu Bu, a military officer.
When Liu Bu heard the other party's explanation, his nervous expression relaxed a little. He said, "Don't blame me for being too long-winded. This thief is really important. I also believe that Lord Wang, your character is steady and proper, so that I will hand this thief to you. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me for turning against others."
Liu Bu said this, in fact, it was a matter of proper meaning. Everyone's wealth and honor fell on Zhang Xianzhong. Wang Zhiwen also recognized this, and he understood the other party's nervousness.
So he repeatedly said, "There will be no problem." Then he asked, "Zhang Thief broke through Fengyang, he has caught a lot of treasures around him. Did the army seize these things? If it is seized, it is best to use it to resettle refugees and restore local people's livelihood."
He must have thought Wang Zhiwen was taking it alone, but he would never dare to say such words. If he dared to say such words, he would probably chop it up for Liu Bu or even throw it away.
Liu Bu was secretly funny, and only then did he realize that the daylily was cold and the hair was gone, and he was still fighting for nothing? However, Liu Bu didn't understand and said, "Mr. Wang, you came just now. We just drove the enemy and captured all these enemies. We also took the opportunity to capture two or three thousand more prisoners. There were still some supplies and property here. Just as he was about to count them one by one, the Lord came and helped."
