Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 330: Surrender doesn't call me

The one who had this idea was Dai Dongche, the ambassador of Xingquan House, who just flattered and slapped the toilet on the toilet.

This ambassador is not a diplomat of the ambassador of a country in later generations, and his status is prominent, but a miscellaneous official. His official hat is smaller than that of Sesame's son.

Just by hearing the name of this official position, he is actually a small boss in charge of the warehouse.

As a person who has no fame and is at best just a child, it can be said that it is very difficult for him to get along today.

He failed to study in his early years, and he joined a low-ranking official before the age of twenty. He worked hard for 30 years, and climbed from ordinary clerk to ambassador Cang step by step. His experience is the best of countless low-level officials working hard and climbing up experience.

But even though he is already the role model that countless officials dream of, he is still not satisfied, because he still wants to climb higher, he wants to continue to rise to the ninth grade, even the eighth grade, the seventh grade, and become a county magistrate.

But if there is no miracle, he will be like this in this life, not to mention the grandfather of Qipin County, even if he is a true 9th rank, he can only retire from the rank of 9th rank.

But as an ambitious person, he is not reconciled!

He was able to spend 30 years of continuous improvement, and finally put on the official robe that everyone envied. It can be seen that this person is not mediocre and content with the status quo.

And ambitious people are the most terrible, they either become heroic protagonists or become villains.

After coming out of the prefectural government office, Dai Dongche raised his head and glanced at the sky. The sky was pitch black, and there was no starlight.

At this time, his entourage also brought a two-person sedan chair to him. At this time, his entourage said, "Master, are you going back to the manor?"

Dai Dongche did not answer immediately, but after pondering for a while, he said, "No, go to Wang Xianjian's mansion!"

Naturally, the entourage would not know, nor would he ask Dai Dongche why he went to the Wang Patrol's Mansion. He consciously said, "Yes!"

Then he greeted the bearer: "Go!"

Sitting on the swaying sedan chair, Dai Dongche half-squinted his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking. His face was a little gloomy. His entourage was also an old man who had followed him for many years. Seeing that his master seemed to be in a bad mood, he immediately whispered: "Master, what's the matter, is it because of the pseudo-Tang bandit army?"

Dai Dongche turned his head slightly, then glanced at him, didn't say much, just nodded slightly!

At this time, the entourage who followed the sedan chair continued to speak: "Those pseudo-Tang thieves are outside the city, and now everyone is in a panic. The young man heard that the people from the Yang family in the east of Fangcai City wanted to escape from the city, but they had just left the city. After entering the city gate, it was stopped by the pseudo-Tang bandit army outside the city, and it was not easy to run back!"

Dai Dongche snorted coldly at this time: "Stupid, the pseudo-Tang thief army is not a fool, naturally they will watch over several city gates, how can it be so easy to escape, let alone them, even if it is a detective It's not that easy to ride out of the city!"

"But it's okay if you can't escape. If everyone wants to escape like him, the city will not be defended!"

When Dai Dongche said this, he naturally wouldn't tell others. In the afternoon, he also thought about escaping from the city, but before he could implement it, he heard about the big gentry who fled the city first or He was shot and killed by the pseudo-Tang outside, or he was embarrassed to get it back, but I have never heard of anyone who managed to escape.

That's why he stopped thinking about running away, not just him. In fact, most of the people who held a meeting in the prefect's yamen today have experienced the same thoughts as Dai Dongche.

It's just that this idea didn't work out.

It is not so easy to get out of the city now.

Since the puppet army of Tang thieves arrived outside Xingquan Mansion in the afternoon, Xingquan Mansion has closed several city gates in and out, and has also sent manpower to guard it strictly. This aspect is of course to stop the pseudo Tang thief army. Trying to sneak into the city, but on the other hand, it is also to prevent a large number of people in the city from escaping.

This person has all run away, how can the government arrest the young and strong to defend the city!

But this is only superficial work. Ordinary people can't get out of the city, but some rich and powerful people want to leave the city, and the guards at the city gate really dare not stop it.

But since the afternoon, there have been no one hundred people trying to escape from the city to other places to escape the war, and there have been eighty people, but I haven't heard of anyone who can break through the blockade of the pseudo-Tang thief army and escape successfully.

Those who escaped the city were lucky enough to be able to get it back, but if they were unlucky, they would be directly shot or captured by the pseudo-Tang thieves outside the city.

In order to prevent important people in the city from escaping, and then go to other places to transport rescue soldiers or something, after Hao Bainian arrived in Xingquan City, he soon completely surrounded Xingquan City. There are four city gates in the south, south, and northwest. People were guarded, and a peripheral line of defense was also established, with soldiers regularly patrolling.

In this kind of encirclement, if people in the city want to escape, one or two people will run away secretly. The single person is flexible, the target is small, and it is easier to hide, so it is still possible to escape.

But if you run away like a family moving house, you will never get out.

But those who wanted to escape were gentry and big families. Naturally, they did not escape alone. They had to bring their parents and children, a group of wives and concubines, and gold and silver treasures full of carriages.

With so many carriages, you still want to break through the blockade of the new army of the Tang Dynasty. Isn't that just a joke!

For these people, the new army of the Tang Dynasty are all prisoners who can be captured, and those who cannot be captured should keep their belongings as much as possible.

After capturing more than a dozen motorcades, the new army of the Tang Dynasty has gained quite a lot. In total, they have captured two eldest masters, half of the elegant sons and brothers, and a dozen of them embroidered boudoirs. .

Of course, these captives were not in Hao Bainian's eyes. What he valued more was the large amount of spoils captured along with these captives.

Gold and silver jewelry, rare calligraphy and paintings are a lot. If those jewelry are not included, there are more than three hundred taels of gold alone.

The total value of this batch of goods alone is not less than ten thousand taels.

And this figure is already equivalent to the amount of money that the Datang New Army has collected in Zhengtai County in the past few months.

Even if these gold and silver cannot be eaten or drunk, they can be traded with businessmen like Old Man Sun to buy strategic materials such as copper, iron, saltpeter, and sulfur needed by the new army of the Tang Dynasty.

Besides, in addition to external transactions, the subsequent Datang Dynasty can't always keep the salaries of officials from disbursing them. This can only be disbursed when there is money.

Therefore, for the new army of the Tang Dynasty, the more gold and silver they have seized, the better.

For this reason, Li Xuan, who arrived here in the evening, also specially praised Comrade Xiao Hao, saying that he was anxious about the worries of the Tang Dynasty and worried about the worries of Zhen. He was really a loyal minister, a great loyal minister!

Xingquan Mansion is under siege, some people want to escape, some people want to defend, and some people will make other plans.

Dai Dongche wanted to escape at first, but after he couldn't escape, he wanted to be a main battle faction and stick to Xingquan Mansion City. Originally, when he went to the prefectural government for a meeting today, he had already thought of several strategies and was ready to donate to the same. Knowing the adults, in order to gain appreciation, and at the same time, I also prepared to take out some good things in the warehouse to use as military expenses.

He planned to do this before, naturally not because he was loyal to the king and patriotic, but because he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to stand out and make a big contribution, and he was afraid of not getting promoted?

His requirements are not high, and he can't expect to reach the seventh rank in one step, but he has to upgrade one level, and the ninth rank is good.

But there will be thinking that he has not had the opportunity to express his determination to stick to it, that is, he was reprimanded by the same Zhi Chang Chuan.

At that time, he not only lost face and could not come to the stage, but also lost the opportunity to offer advice to Dai Dongche in the future, so that in the meeting for more than an hour, he could only sit there dryly and watch others chat with Dai Dongche.

However, taking advantage of the opportunity of the pseudo-Tang thief army to attack the city, his intention to make himself further is still not cut off.

Since Dai Dongche did not give him a chance to make meritorious deeds, and since the imperial court did not give him promotion, then he simply voted for his family.

The Pseudo-Tang Bandit Army is a good choice, isn't it?

I heard that in the past few years, there have been no officials from the Pseudo-Tang Bandit Army who surrendered to the past.

Since he can't be a high-ranking official in Daming, he will go to the pseudo-Tang side to become an official. Isn't this an official there?

As for when the pseudo-Tang thief army will be destroyed, Dai Dongche is more optimistic about this. This pseudo-Tang thief army of several thousand people can defeat the official army of 10,000 people~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is not a big opportunity to develop, but There must be, take 10,000 steps back and say that if the pseudo-Tang bandit army was finished that day, it would be a big deal for him to become a traitor again. Maybe he will be able to get a promotion and make a fortune because of his defection and meritorious deeds.

However, as an ambitious official, he didn't want to wait until the pseudo-Tang bandit army invaded the city before surrendering. That would not show his talent and value at all. How could he get the importance of the pseudo-Tang bandit army, such as To surrender in advance, and it is best to get a city dedication.

How to donate the city?

This is why Dai Dongche often inspects the mansion before tonight.

Wang Xunjian and he are the in-laws of their children. Of course, this relationship is not important. What is important is that this Wang Xunjian has nearly dozens of arresters and helpers under his command, and is responsible for the security patrols in the city.

Just like this, it's not worth Dai Dongche running to his house late at night. What's more important is that he knows that this inspector Wang is just like himself and wants to climb up. However, this person was a bandit who surrendered before. If there are no miracles in his life, he will not be able to climb it in this life.

Dai Dongche believed that he was at least half sure of persuading him to find a way to open the city gate to surrender and win the merit of dedicating the city.

But what he didn't expect was that when he arrived at Wang Xunjian's mansion, he heard from the people in the king's mansion that Wang Xunjian was not there, and that he had taken people to inspect the city gate.

To visit the city gate?

What a joke, the city gate is so dangerous, according to the character of the **** surnamed Wang, he will take risks at this time, it is impossible.

And in the middle of the night, he took a group of people to inspect? Patrol what? What's there to inspect?

Dai Dongche stood on the spot and thought for a long time, suddenly slapped his forehead, and couldn't help cursing: "Well, you son of a bitch, you don't even call me when you surrender!"
