Chapter 64 Copying the house (for collection)

Until he was pressed in front of Lao Zhu by Erhu.

"Kneel down!" Erhu yelled, and kicked Wei Zaode's knee directly, and Wei Zaode, who couldn't bear it, knelt down in front of Lao Zhu.

"Who are you? Do you know who I am? You are so brave, let me go quickly, and I will spare your life then." Wei Zaode looked up at the only chair in the tent Lao Zhu.

I keep thinking about it in my heart, who the hell is this?It seems that there is no such person in the capital!
"Wei Zaode, the chief assistant of the Ming cabinet? See what this is?" Lao Zhu threw out a few letters casually.

"I don't know what this is. Don't try to frame me. As the chief assistant of the Ming cabinet, how could I communicate with the intruders!" Wei Zaode saw the letters in front of him, his eyes changed. Although the letters were not written by him, they were It was indeed his instruction. After all, as the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, he still needs some face. How could he surrender and rebel before the city was broken.

The letter is just a means for him to borrow someone else's hand to communicate with Li Zicheng first, and after Li Zicheng ascends the throne, he can also restore his official position as soon as possible.

"Master Wei, can I ask you something? Do you know how much silver is in the treasury? Do you know how much silver is in the emperor's internal treasury?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little curious. You must know that this was the first time he had heard of the emperor's court. Such things as borrowing money from the ministers.

After they occupied the palace, people continued to make statistics, and finally found that there was less than 10 taels of silver in the dignified treasury of the Ming Dynasty, and the emperor's internal anger was even less than 1 taels.

When Old Zhu knew about it, he cursed inwardly, this shitty emperor is not as rich as he was when he was King Wu.

"Hmph, I don't know, don't use such white and yellow things to contaminate us and other literati." Although Wei Zaode was kneeling, the words were quite righteous when he uttered them, which aroused admiration in the hearts of those who didn't know.

"Hey." Lao Zhu was almost amused by Wei Zaode in front of him. If Jin Yiwei hadn't found no less than 100 million taels of silver from Wei Zaode's house, as well as some jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, Lao Zhu would have believed that this person was a high-spirited and upright official up.

Zhu Biao also held back his laughter, knowing that before Wei Zaode was overwhelmed, Jin Yiwei sent over the details of the gold and silver treasures after the ransacking of the house one step earlier.

"Okay, since you're so stubborn, we don't want to say anything more to you. I've seen you. This Daming is indeed rotten to the root. Let's cut it down, Erhu, according to the information collected by Jin Yiwei, Officials in the city should be arrested and killed, we are not interested in them anymore, a cabinet minister who has been in the cabinet for less than two years can be so embezzled that he can be dragged out to peel the weeds."

What Lao Zhu hated most in his life was corrupt officials. When he saw Wei Zaode, he just wanted to see what the last chief assistant of Ming Dynasty was capable of.

"Before he dies, tell him who we are, and let him know when he dies." Lao Zhu waved his hand and asked Erhu to take him down immediately.

"This..." Wei Zaode was just about to say something when a piece of sackcloth was stuffed into his mouth, and he couldn't speak anymore. He wanted to show off his character as a literati and see if the person in front of him could spare his life.

This just showed his strength of character, how could he have to pull down the day lily, how many years has this kind of torture been carried out?
Wei Zaode regretted it very much at this time, he knew that he would not pretend to be tough from the beginning, the most important thing is that the person in front of him is immoral!He didn't even give himself a chance to finish his sentence.

"This Ming Dynasty died at the hands of such corrupt officials!" Lao Zhu not only read Ming history all day and night, but also read many recent excerpts from various places, as well as various information collected by Jin Yiwei. over again.

The conclusion is that this Ming Dynasty is completely rotten, so rotten that it cannot be saved. Compared with saving it, Lao Zhu is more inclined to start the world again.

Anyway, for him, he had only been enthroned for less than a year, and he was nothing more than picking up his old job. He believed that his old brothers would not mind going to the battlefield to fight again.

"Biao'er, we want to go back to Daming. Do you stay here or go back with us?" Old Zhu was a little tired. After all, his deeds recorded in Ming history were exactly the same before he ascended the throne. If it weren't for luck When the altar appeared, Lao Zhu felt that history might really be the same as the records in the book.

"Father, my son has never experienced a battlefield. I want to stay here and see the world with Marshal Xu Da." Zhu Biao didn't want to go back now, but he might not be able to survive this time. It still needs to be explained to Wen Wu, and to Empress Ma, and arrangements must be made for Daming to come back.

Moreover, Lao Zhu, who has read the history of Ming Dynasty, does not know what he will do when he returns to the world of Ming Dynasty. Instead of going back with Lao Zhu, it is better to learn from Xu Da here.

"Okay, then you stay here, watch more and talk less, and don't interfere with Xu Da's command." Old Zhu saw that Zhu Biao didn't want to go back, so he didn't say any more, and after a few instructions, he was ready to take people back.

"By the way, after the ransacking of the house is finished, write me a note. I'll see how corrupt these corrupt officials can go. The most important thing is to bring the money back to us." Old Zhu just raised his feet as if thinking of something, He asked Zhu Biao again.

"I obey the decree!" Zhu Biao thought that no one would have imagined that more than 7000 million taels of silver could be copied from all the officials in Beijing. .

Old Zhu went back, and Zhu Biao didn't stay in the tent for too long. In the tent, it's better to go to the city wall to see the cruelty of war, and do some psychological training first, so as not to get used to it in the future.

As for the two tigers, they were naturally left behind by Lao Zhu, staying in this world to cooperate with Jin Yiwei to search for supplies.

"Don't worry, the grenade in your hand will be thrown to me when the enemy approaches thirty steps. After two rounds of throwing, get ready to fight."

The sound of orderly and undisturbed arrangements on the city wall, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty kept repelling the invading enemies, Liu Zongmin was also a little puzzled at this time, he mobilized 5 people to attack the city, and lost nearly 5000 people in four hours Well, the Ming army on the city wall was also damaged, but why are there so many people on the city wall?

"His grandma, didn't he say that there are not enough guards in the city? Doesn't it look like there are not enough guards?" Liu Zongmin cursed, and failed consecutive sieges, which made him furious.

"Give me an order. The first person to climb the city wall will be rewarded with 3000 taels of silver and be promoted to three ranks." Liu Zongmin's mouth twitched slightly. You must know that the reward of 3000 taels of silver has to be paid by himself.

After a while, Liu Zongmin's reward for first ascending spread throughout the army. Morale had already started to slump, but when stimulated by real money, all the people seemed to be in a frenzy, rushing towards the city gate without fear of death.

"Boom~Boom~"

The original garrison artillery on the city wall kept spraying flames.

"Marshal Xu, why don't you use our general cannon?" Zhu Biao looked at the intruders who died one after another on the charging road under the city wall.

Fortunately, there are many flintlock teams guarding the city wall now. The flintlock guns with an effective range of more than 80.00 meters are condescending. Even if they are not accurate, as long as they shoot now, there is an [-]% probability that they will be shot. Can hit people.

"Not yet." Xu Da said calmly, looking at the battlefield in front of him.

Xu Da narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the somewhat blurred tent in the distance. Before the city was attacked, there was no such tent. Even if it wasn't the so-called Li Zicheng, it was still an important figure in the army.

Xu Da was waiting for a chance to shoot him after repelling one or two waves of attacks. If the general's cannon was really that powerful, the chance to hit him was right in front of him.

And the handsome tent that Xu Da was eyeing was Liu Zongmin's camp. Because of the failure of the siege, Liu Zongmin had to come to the front to supervise the battle in person. After all, Li Zicheng gave him his life. The rear army went to eat cold food.
