Chapter 91
Ye Zheng and a group of bandit leaders were at the gate of the city. After reorganizing the team, only a small number of troops were left to take care of the injured brothers. The rest of the troops followed him to the county government in Feng County.
.
Along the way, they could hear the frightened cries of children coming from the public houses on both sides of the street from time to time. They must have been frightened by Ye Zheng and the others who had just attacked the city and shouted for death.
Seeing this, Ye Zheng shook his head helplessly and sighed, and ordered to the bandits around him: "All brothers who enter the county, please listen to me. You must be self-disciplined along the way and don't do anything that disturbs the people by robbing, smashing, and looting. We
The purpose of this trip is to rob official rations, not to harm innocent people. If I know that someone is taking the opportunity to do evil, I will kill them all!"
After the bandit leaders heard his murderous warning, they were all frightened and hurriedly sent people to convey his order to prevent their men from committing such unethical acts of killing and robbing.
After running for a cup of tea on the main street of Fengxian City, a group of bandits arrived at the gate of the county government.
Ye Zheng looked at the government office with the door closed, his face darkened and he said: "Smash it open, rush in and arrest the county head. If anyone inside resists, shoot and kill!"
"As you command, leader!"
Immediately, a group of people, led by a bandit leader, smashed open the gate of the county government office like wolves and tigers, and rushed straight to the backyard of the government office.
In the lobby and backyard of the county government, except for some servants and an old master, no trace of the county master of Nafeng County was found. It seems that he saw that the city gate was breached by Ye Zheng and others, so he should have been there early.
So he rolled up the gold and silver and ran away.
At this time, the old housekeeper was mentioned in front of Ye Zheng by a bandit leader. "Leader, except for some servants of the yamen, the county lord of Feng County, this old guy, was not seen in this yamen."
He is the master of the dog officer. Damn it, I searched for a long time before I found him in the hidden attic. This old immortal almost let him hide!"
After saying that, the bandit leader angrily prepared to kick the master, but was stopped by Ye Zheng in time.
The master of the county government was now curled up with a pale face, paralyzed on the ground and trembling. He must have been frightened by Ye Zheng, a gang of vicious bandits.
Ye Zheng walked up to him expressionlessly, lowered his head and asked: "I'm going to ask you a few questions now. Just answer them truthfully. As long as you don't lie to me, I won't embarrass you servants."
When the master heard that he had a chance to live, he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Hero, spare your life, hero, spare your life. If you have any questions, just ask. I promise to tell you everything I know. I will never tell lies to deceive you heroes."
Ye Zheng nodded with satisfaction and asked, "When did those thousand regular troops defending the city arrive at Feng County?"
When the master heard this, he hurriedly replied: "It was seven days ago! Seven days ago, the head of my county received an order saying that the state city would send a thousand regular troops to assist Feng County in defending the city. It was said that bandits would come to attack in the near future.
We want to seize food from the city, so we have to deploy heavy troops here to ambush them, so as to give those bandits a head-on blow and force them to retreat in the face of difficulties!"
When Ye Zheng heard this, he frowned and said, "Did the state city only send a thousand regular troops?"
The master nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, only a thousand regular troops came to help defend the city!"
Ye Zheng lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said: "Where is the granary of the Feng County government? You can take us there now. We are here only for food and nothing else! As long as we get the food smoothly, naturally
I will let you go."
When the master heard this, he hurriedly said: "I know where the granary is. I will take all the heroes there now..."
Hearing this, Ye Zheng didn't say anything more. He just ordered someone to keep the master under guard and let him lead his group to the granary to get food.
Under the leadership of this master, everyone arrived at the granary of Fengxian County Government in less than half an hour. At this time, Ye Zheng ordered people to break open the door of the granary, but when he saw the inside
After the scene, everyone immediately frowned deeply.
It turned out that there was not much grain left in the county government's granary in Feng County. Everyone estimated that the rice grain in the warehouse would not exceed two hundred tons. The weighing and calculation unit of the Dalie Dynasty at that time
, respectively, one liter is one and a half kilograms, ten liters is one bucket, ten buckets is one load, and ten loads is one cart. Therefore, all the grain in this warehouse is only about 30,000 kilograms.
Thirty thousand pounds may be an astronomical figure for an ordinary family, and it cannot be more, but for the more than 10,000 old, weak, women and children of the Desolate Alliance led by Ye Zheng, it is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket.
Two hundred loads of grain would not last more than a few days.
At this time, Liu Chengfeng came to Ye Zheng's side, sighed and said: "Leader, we have spent so much effort this time, but we did not expect that we could only rob so little food. It seems that the officials of Feng County,
They have already taken precautions!"
As soon as Liu Chengfeng finished speaking, several bandit leaders next to him began to worry: "Leader, we didn't get enough food this time, what should we do now?"
"Yes, yes. If we transport just this little food back, it will last for three to five days at most. So what should we do next?"
"Hey, since the government's granary is not enough, and we have captured Feng County anyway, let's just let go of the troops and let the brothers go to the houses of some wealthy families in the county to rob them. We are all bandits anyway, and this is what we do
This kind of robbery, burning and killing business..."
"Shut up!" Ye Zheng shouted angrily, looking at the bandit leader who just said he wanted to rob the people, and said with a sullen face: "Although we are bandits and robbers, we still have to steal in a good way. If we are ordinary brothers,
Ye absolutely agrees with the business of robbing the rich to give to the poor and eliminating harm for the people. But whoever dares to attack those innocent civilians and rob them of their gold, silver and food, I will be the first to kill him!"
The bandit leaders were all ashamed after being rebuked by him in such a stern voice, especially the one who just said that he would send people to rob the leader. At this time, he hung his head in shame.
At this time, Liu Chengfeng saw that Ye Zheng was angry and the atmosphere was very tense. He quickly stood up to calm the atmosphere and said: "What the leader said makes sense. Although we are bandits, we must also be bandits.
, Therefore, it is absolutely inappropriate to rob the common people in Feng County City. If this matter is spread, the entire Xicang Seven Counties and Thirty-sixth Road Green Forest colleagues will definitely laugh at us. So, what should we do next?
What to do, we can just think of a solution ourselves."
Having said this, he looked at Ye Zheng and asked: "Leader, according to your wishes, what should we do next?"
Ye Zheng thought for a while and said: "Let brothers move the grain out of this warehouse first! We will buy the remaining grain from the local people to see if they have any extra grain."
When Liu Chengfeng heard this, he nodded and praised: "This is a good idea, leader. It's very good. I will arrange for the brothers to do it and let them buy food early tomorrow morning."
