Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 36
Zhao Wen frowned, and shouted at Hou Shilu, "What do you mean?"

Hou Shilu came back to his senses and said, "I heard that three Ming soldiers killed hundreds of Tartars today outside the city of Xuanfu. Is it you?"

Zhao Wen said, "So what if it is, so what if it's not?"

Zhao Wen put his hands on his waist, and tightly grasped the big black star.

"Hehe, young man, have courage. I want to discuss something with you!" Hou Shilu narrowed his eyes, looking greedily at the head on the cart.

Looking at Hou Shilu's appearance, Zhao Wen couldn't understand what Hou Shilu was thinking.

So, Zhao Wendao: "I know what you want to do, but have you thought about it. Since I can kill so many Tartars, don't I have a certain method?"

"Methods? Hehe, look at you now, what methods can you use? I admit that you have some ability to wipe out hundreds of Tartars in the wild. But, have you ever thought that this place is different from the wild. You The place we are in now is called Weng City. Now, the front and rear gates have been closed. Do you think you can escape? Let alone the three of you, even if there are thousands of people inside, I am sure to kill them all "Hou Shilu narrowed his eyes and sneered.

Although the three people in front of him were probably the three people mentioned by the Tartar captives, Hou Shilu still had a little luck in his heart.What if it wasn't what the Tartars said, and the heads they pulled were just picked?
Thinking of this, Hou Shilu decided to give it a go.After all, now the three of them are like turtles in a urn, trapped in Wengcheng.And my own side is condescending, surrounded by high walls to protect, and there is no way out.No matter how you look at it, your chances of winning are better.

Besides, who knows if those Tartars were scared out of their wits and bragging there?

There is a saying that people make money and birds die for food. The heads on the big cart in front of me are a great achievement that is within easy reach. As long as I have these heads, my future will be extremely bright. .At that time, let alone a small general soldier, he might be awarded a hereditary title by the imperial court.

A hereditary and irreplaceable title, that is a rest with the country.You can't enjoy the glory and wealth.

When Hou Shilu thought of this, his heart became hot again.He looked at Zhao Wen in Wengcheng, his face gradually darkened.

"This town wants the head of a tartar in your hand, you can make a price." Hou Shilu said coldly.

Before it was time to have to, Hou Shilu didn't really want to tear up his face with Zhao Wen and others.

If you can safely get the heads in their hands, then why bother to fight?
After all, if this matter gets out, the impact will not be very good.

"You want the Tartar head in my hand?" Zhao Wen raised his eyebrows and looked at Hou Shilu jokingly.

Hou Shilu said solemnly: "That's right, this town wants to buy the Tartar head from you, what do you think?"

"Then how much can you pay?" Zhao Wen touched the big black star on his waist, then looked at the Ming army surrounding the city, felt something was wrong, and then stuffed the big black star back.He gradually backed up and stopped right in front of the cart.

Zhao Wen touched Hou Shilu with his right hand while tugging at it.

Zhao Wen's hands kept groping on the cart, and suddenly, a cold touch came from his fingers, and Zhao Wen knew that it was the 40 fire that he had put there.

"One head, five taels of silver, what do you think?" Hou Shilu stretched out five fingers and shook them in front of his eyes.

When Zhao Wen heard this, he cursed in his heart: Damn, a tartar head was originally worth three or forty taels of silver, but this bastard is only worth five taels of silver. What's the difference between this and Ming Qiang?
In my later life, I once read in a book that the civil servants and military generals at the end of the Ming Dynasty were greedy.Before, I thought it was written by the Qing Dynasty deliberately, deliberately discrediting the Ming Dynasty.Unexpectedly, if Zhao Wen hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes today, he wouldn't have realized the greed of officials in the late Ming Dynasty.

Zhao Daniu on the side had an angry look on his face. I and others worked so hard to get these tartar heads. As a result, you just wanted to buy them for five taels of silver with a light sentence. You are not too Did you bully someone?

Zhao Daniu looked at Hou Shilu angrily, and said angrily, "My lord, aren't you bullying people? A tartar's head is worth at least 30 taels of silver, and you only pay five taels of silver. Isn't this a clear robbery?"

Hou Shilu sneered, and said: "It's already quite a lot. You can do the math yourself. One tartar head is five taels of silver, ten is 50 taels, and one hundred is 500 taels. This town estimates that there are enough taels in your big cart." Three hundred before, three hundred, this is 500 taels of silver."

Hmph, grab it?If it wasn't for Lao Tzu's fear that he would be too ugly and be talked about by others, I wouldn't want to spend a single copper coin.

"Damn, you corrupt official. You want to buy a tartar head from me for 500 taels. Are you dreaming?" Zhao Daniu spat directly and cursed fiercely.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents.What's more, what about a big soldier like Zhao Daniu who has been poor all his life?
Hou Shilu's complexion darkened, he gritted his teeth and said: "Don't be shameless, if you don't toast, you will be punished!"

"Hey, I just don't give you face, why? Want to kill me?" Zhao Wen smirked, and then slowly removed 40 fire from the cart.

Hou Shilu didn't notice the 40 fire in Zhao Wen's hand. He snorted coldly, then waved his hand and shouted: "Fire me an arrow!"

At the same time, Zhao Wen directly raised the 40 fire in his hand, aimed at Hou Shilu, and said angrily: "Do it!"

When Song Hu and Zhao Daniu heard Zhao Wen's voice, they directly took off the 56 halves from their backs, pulled the trigger, and fired at the top of the city wall.

"Hey!"

The rocket with its orange tail flame made a strange scream and flew towards Hou Shilu rapidly.

"What?" Hou Shilu looked at the rockets flying towards him, his pupils shrank, and he was horrified.

He felt an extremely dangerous aura from the rocket.

"Oh!"

The rocket landed at Hou Shilu's feet, and before he could react, it exploded directly at his feet.A huge flame directly enveloped Hou Shilu.

"what!!!"

A shrill scream rang out, and then a big pit appeared where Hou Shilu was standing.

After the smoke cleared, everyone was horrified to find that the commander-in-chief standing there had disappeared.Instead, there was a dark pool of blood on the ground.

"Master Chief Soldier was killed!!!"

"Master Chief Soldier was killed!!!"

"The commander-in-chief is gone? What kind of weapon is this? Why is it so terrifying?"

The Ming army on the top of the city looked at this scene in horror, and for a while, the whole city was in chaos.

Zhao Wen looked at the panicked Ming army and waved his hand to make Song Hu and Zhao Daniu stop shooting.

"My lord, everyone, you, you, you killed the general officer of Xuanfu Town!!!" Zhao Daniu was trembling all over, and he pointed at Zhao Wen in disbelief, trembling with horror on his face.

Zhao Wen turned around and said with disdain, "So what?"

"Killing an official is equal to rebellion. Let's kill one of the important towns on the Nine Frontiers, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town. This is even more serious than a rebellion. This is a crime against the Nine Clans!!!" Zhao Daniu said tremblingly with wide-eyed eyes. .

Although Zhao Daniu was disgusted when he saw Hou Shilu's greedy look before, but he never thought of killing him.Zhao Daniu never thought about it from the beginning to the end.

Zhao Wen laughed, and said: "In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and schemes are false. If the commander-in-chief was not so greedy, this would not have happened, but who made him so greedy? If it is too long, it will inevitably be chopped off."

"But let's kill the chief military officer!" Zhao Daniu still held onto it, obviously he was extremely afraid of this matter.

Zhao Wen looked at Zhao Daniu's appearance and let out a long sigh.

Alas, for thousands of years, the people of China have formed a natural awe for officials, and this awe has been integrated into their bones.

"Da Niu, how do you talk to your lord? Your lord is an immortal, what is a small general soldier?" Song Hu kept trembling with the hand holding 56 and a half. Calm yourself down.

"But that's the commander-in-chief after all, we're doomed now. If the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town is killed, the imperial court will definitely send a large army to encircle and suppress us." Zhao Daniu said tremblingly with horror on his face.

Li Xiaoying looked at the trembling Zhao Daniu, frowned, and scolded: "You are a big man, it's such a big deal, are you afraid of becoming like this?"

Zhao Daniu turned around and shouted: "You bitch, what do you know?"

"Although I am a woman, I know that if the commander-in-chief hadn't been greedy and wanted to take your gains, I wouldn't have died. Hmph, this kind of person dare not beat the tartars, but only dares to fight in the nest It is best for people who are dead to die. The Ming Dynasty was plagued by such people. Besides, you have powerful magic weapons in your hands. What are you afraid of? The Ming army in Xuanfu City is even afraid of Tartars , what are you afraid of?"

Li Xiaoying frowned, glared at Zhao Daniu, and said in a sharp tone.

Zhao Wen pointed at Zhao Daniu and said with a smile: "Look at you, you are not even as good as a woman. Come on, what are you afraid of? We have weapons and the heads of tartars, what else can we do? The whole Xuanfu Town, I don't believe that he, the commander-in-chief, can cover the sky with one hand?"

Zhao Wen looked at the city gate in front of Wengcheng, and then stuffed a rocket into the launcher.

He set up the launcher, aimed at the city gate directly in front of him, and directly pulled the trigger.

"Oh!"

The rocket hit the city gate, and a huge hole was instantly blasted out.The entire city wall trembled, and the soldiers standing on the wall looked at this scene in horror, and they all froze in place.

Zhao Wen held up the 40 fire, pointed at the city gate, and shouted: "Enter the city!"

"Hurry up and gather heavy troops!" Lu Daliang, the deputy commander, looked at Zhao Wen who was slowly heading towards the city, and hurriedly ran down the city wall, shouting loudly to the guards behind him.
