Chapter 90: This tattered city

The rebels launched a general offensive, but when they came over aggressively, the originally closed gate suddenly opened.
Hearing the noisy noises coming from the city, soon, more than a thousand people rushed out on horseback, and behind them were people chasing and crying.
After the cavalry rushed out, instead of confronting the rebels, they turned their heads and ran directly to the west!
This...what's the situation?
In order to boost morale, Dong Kui deliberately rushed to the forefront on horseback. He watched the group of people turn around and ran, and finally his gaze fell on the back basket carried by each of them.
The back basket looked very heavy and heavy, and it was tightly wrapped in cloth, but the horseback was too bumpy. After a few steps, some of the cloth covered on the back basket was shaken away, revealing the white silver inside!
That is real silver! Glistening in the sun, especially dazzling.
Perhaps because of time constraints, they can only use baskets to hold silver. After running like this, a lot of the silver will fall out, but the cavalry rushing on the road don't care about this at all. After all, they have more than a thousand baskets, and they still care. Is this silver?
Dong Gu was stunned. The silver was so dazzling that he almost chased him, but he was a cautious man after all. He grabbed the rein in his hand hard, and moved his gaze away from the cavalry with difficulty and moved to the city.
Inside the gate of the cave, there was a messy black street. The street seemed to be only half repaired, and it looked very shabby.
And there are dirt pits everywhere on both sides of the road, and the surrounding houses are also dilapidated, as if they have been demolished in half but not completely demolished. The whole city is completely unsightly except for the better walls!
This is the rich city that man said? This is what the person said about Jinshan Yinshan?
Yes, Xiangcheng is rich, but it doesn't say that the people are rich. All the money must be in the hands of the county official!
When the county magistrate saw that the city general was not guarding, he directly took the money and fled. If he really told them to run like this, his trip would have come for nothing!
That is more than a thousand baskets! If every one is filled with silver, isn't it a golden mountain and silver mountain?
The huge benefits stimulated Dong Ku, but he made a decision after a while!
"Everyone, stop the cavalry! Don't allow any of them to escape! Hurry!"
Shouting like this, he took the lead and rushed to the west. His men couldn't hold back the moment they saw the silver. They just waited for him to give an order and rushed away.
Dong Gu and his soldiers on horseback naturally rushed to the forefront, while the rebel troops behind also ran very fast, mainly because of their wealth. If they ran slowly, the money would be robbed by the people in front. How to do?
In this way, the mighty 20,000 to 30,000 people were originally going to attack the city, but they turned abruptly in front of Xiangcheng, chasing the cavalry before.
Originally, there were people who were moved to take advantage of the chaos to go to Xiangcheng to rob, but like Dong Ku, they just glanced through the gate and instantly lost interest.
Is it necessary to grab the city in front of this unbearably broken city?
And the people who chased them out, when they saw the cavalry running away, they just sat at the gate of the city and cried. They didn't mean to close the door at all. Obviously, the valuables were taken away. It doesn't matter whether they close the door or not.
Rather than rob these people, it is better to chase the cavalry in front to grab them, run faster, and maybe you can share some soup!
When they ran away, Mr. Huang, who was hiding behind the city wall, let out a long sigh of relief.
"I don't even get in. Does our city look so bad?"
Mr. Huang is very puzzled, he thinks Xiang Cheng is very good and advanced!
Mr. Liu was originally nervous, but after hearing what Huang said, he looked around and finally couldn't help showing his first smile in these days.
"It looks pretty shabby."
Because they are being built everywhere, and the houses on both sides of the road have to be demolished and rebuilt. In addition, in the past few days, everyone has been in turmoil and all kinds of tools are thrown away everywhere. At first glance, how can this be described as a broken word? ?
And this kind of damage is not deliberately made to pretend to be broken, after all, who can tear down a street house like this in a few days? No matter how smart Dong Kui was, he would never think that this was part of their infrastructure, so he would naturally be fooled!
Old Huang touched his beard and suddenly smiled.
"Sure enough, young people still have a way. Why didn't you think of it before the old man?"
When Qin Jue proposed to use silver to lure them to the valley, Huang Lao still felt wrong. If Dong Ku wasn't fooled, wouldn't the people in that city suffer?
When Qin Jue heard it, he just said lightly, "Lin Lang said, you can’t just look at the surface, you must look at the essence through the surface. Although the target of these rebels is Xiangcheng, in addition to the geographical location of Xiangcheng, and In addition to the unknown money-making technology, what they value most is Xiangcheng's money.
Dong Kui wanted to appease his subordinates, and he wanted to expand his power. Money was inseparable. Therefore, money was the main purpose among their many purposes. "
So Qin Jue took advantage of this, and rushed out all the valuables in the city, including the treasures, and Xie Linlang's small vault, and then rushed out with a group of people.
Sure enough, after seeing the scene in the city, that Dong Ku resolutely gave up Xiangcheng and ran after the cavalry.
In Dong Kui's mind, it is normal for officials to leave the people behind and run away with money. Qin Jue used his knowledge to open the city gates and pretend to completely abandon this place.
Coupled with the dilapidated scene in the city, no matter how cautious Dong Kuo was, he would make the choice Qin Jue had expected.
Mr. Liu touched his beard and said, "This world requires a few more talented young people, and your Highness is kind! Originally, he could directly let those five thousand people attack the enemy from the back, so unexpectedly, even if there were a number of people. There is also a chance of winning.
But His Royal Highness cherished the lives of the people in the city and the lives of the five thousand recruits, so he resolutely took out all the money, just to lure the enemy to go deeper, move the battlefield, and reduce sacrifices... This quality is less fame and fortune than those in the capital. The fateful old man is much better. "
No matter how well-planned, as long as the treasure is taken out, there is definitely a risk, and in order to take a breath of blood, it is good not to squeeze the people. How can they risk losing money to replace the people? Sorry, are those civilians worthy?
When encountering danger, the people above push the people below to die, and run away with money. This recognition is not only owned by Dong Kui, but also by Mr. Liu and others, because this is the way the world is, and most people in power are like this. made.
That's why they couldn't make the decision Qin Jue made, and they couldn't think of the strategy Qin Jue would think of.
Sure enough, is this still black for those who are close to Zhu?
