My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

"What's going on? Why didn't anyone inside come out?"

Outside the city, a group of people stood waiting.

"Do you still want to wait? Nothing will happen inside, right?"

"It shouldn't happen, right? Chang Yuan didn't react at all."

"But it's true that no one has come out now. The time agreed with them has already passed."

"Is there something that was delayed, or was it blocked due to other matters? Taixi County is now strict in entering and exiting."

"Look!" Everyone stopped talking and looked in the direction of the speaker.

I saw thick smoke billowing in Taixi County and black smoke rising everywhere.

Everyone was excited, "It's on fire, it's on fire! The plan has begun! Taixi County must be in chaos now!"

"Why hasn't anyone come yet? Do we still have to wait?"

Listening to the commotion coming from the city, one could vaguely glimpse the chaos inside.

The leading man thought for a while, "We can't wait any longer! We have to report the news back quickly! The plan is in progress, they can go back on their own if they come out. Taixi County must not have time to take care of them. They must be entangled in something." .”

Several people made a decision and left quickly.

After bringing the news back, several parties took action to besiege Chang Yuan's major cities.

……

Liu Jianxing was preparing to lead his soldiers straight into Yuzhou and their border defenses.

"Your Majesty, we are the closest to Taixi County. As long as we capture the entire Yuzhou, we can directly reach Taixi County. Then Chang Yuan will be in our pocket!"

"Hahaha, that's right! We can also get hold of his palm thunder. Who in the world can compete with us then? Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, please lead the troops to attack the city first!"

"Your Majesty! I am also willing to lead people to attack the city!"

Everyone was celebrating and begging to fight, as if as long as they sent out their troops, the opponent would be knocked down like tofu.

But in fact, this is indeed the case in their eyes. Now that there is a fire in Taixi County and there is a shortage of food, the people in the city will definitely be in unrest. Chang Yuan himself has no time to take care of himself, so how can he be wary of their alliance of several soldiers and horses?
Liu Jianxing remained silent and was not as excited as his subordinates.

"I always feel that something is wrong, and Chang Yuan also knows something about it. It is impossible for him to fall into our scheme so easily, but he just fell into it."

"This is going so well."

The subordinates all said enthusiastically, "Your Majesty, this time it was our big families and big forces who worked together to set a trap for them. It's normal that they can't break free. I tell you, Your Majesty thinks highly of him."

"Although Chang Yuan is capable, I have only heard that he is very good at fighting. In terms of resourcefulness, how can he defeat so many of us?"

"There aren't even many scholars around him, so it's normal for him to not be able to see through the scheme. I heard that the one he trusts most, Ning Changrong, is still a bastard who doesn't even have any fame. For such a person, let's try some tricks and not fool him. Are they running around?"

Several people were discussing, when suddenly a messenger approached and said, "Greetings to Your Majesty."

Liu Jianxing raised his hand to let the other party speak.

"King Yong has sent troops to attack Huaixi Prefecture, and Emperor Nan Chen has sent people to attack Shaanzhou."

Liu Jianxing waved his hand and asked people to leave.

His subordinates made suggestions one after another.

"Your Majesty, they have already taken action, we must take action immediately."

"Your Majesty, please lead the troops!"

While they were discussing, the heads of several aristocratic families broke into the camp, bowed down and said, "I have met Your Majesty."

It was like following a formality, the movements were in place, but there was no hint of respect.Liu Jianxing's expression remained unchanged, as if he didn't notice anything wrong, and he didn't blame them for their sudden intrusion. "Everyone, why are you here suddenly to discuss something important?"

The head of the Wang family said, "I have received news from all sides that the north has begun to take action. The young emperor in Nancheng has also sent troops. Other places are also starting to send troops. I wonder when your Majesty is going to send troops?"

Other family heads also asked, "This is the best time. Your Majesty must not miss it."

Liu Jianxing frowned and thought for a while, and finally he could only sigh helplessly, "Okay, tell me my decree and send troops immediately."

Then he appointed siege generals and ordered 20 troops.

……

The boundary line of Yuzhou City was originally conquered together, and Yuzhou was divided into two. On the border, Chang Yuan built a long cement city wall, which has now become a line of defense against the enemy.

Looking at the dense enemy troops in front, the general defending the city was unhurried, and the soldiers on the city wall were also making preparations to defend the city in an orderly manner.

"Woooooo!" This is the sound made by the siege horn.

Liu Jianxing sent thousands of soldiers to charge and test.

"Swipe!"

When they approached the shooting range, they were greeted by an overwhelming rain of bows and arrows. The soldiers were wiped out before they even got a hundred steps closer to the city wall.

The hand crossbows alternated between projectiles and flat shots, and the shields of these soldiers hardly blocked them.

Bows and arrows have extremely strong penetrating power, and unlike bows and arrows, it doesn't take as long to prepare for the next shot. It can almost complete the arrow rain coverage.

……

The confirmation news has spread, and the black smoke in the city has been gradually extinguished, and the city has returned to its orderly appearance. A new shop has also been opened to sell affordable grains. That was brought out by Ning Changrong from their own grain depot. of food.

Ten coins per dou of rice limited the amount that each person could buy and prohibited transactions. This was the price before the plague.

Although this lesson has been learned, we are not completely sure that no one will take advantage again and buy at low prices and sell at high prices.

……

Several major grain stores had been thoroughly investigated, and it was the turn of the last Wang's Grain Store.

"No money?" Ning Changrong asked with a frown.

The soldier shook his head and said, "Mr. Ning has searched everything inside and outside this place, and no money was found."

It was impossible. Ning Changrong had people keeping an eye on how much money they had made in the past few days. The amount that the other party transported was obviously wrong. Most of the money must be hidden here.

He knocked around and found nothing wrong.

He came to the courtyard and looked carefully at the land on the ground. Suddenly his eyes fell under a big tree. He squatted down and twisted the soil with his hands.

The soil here is also old soil, but it feels softer than other places.

He summoned the soldiers and pointed to the soil in front of him, "Try digging here a few times."

The soldiers took shovels and dug around the area under the big tree. After digging for a while, they found nothing wrong. Just when Ning Changrong thought he had guessed wrong, the shovel hit a hard object and made a collision sound. .

The soldier exclaimed, "There's something down here!"

Then they dug even harder, and within half a quarter of an hour all the big boxes underneath were exposed.

After being carried out, five large boxes were placed side by side.

Ning Changrong looked at the large pit that was excavated. It was at least four or five cubic meters in size. It was really deep.

Opening the box, it turned out to be the silver that had not been taken away.

"Carry them all back to the county government for counting." Another amount of money was credited to the account.
