Chapter 464 Got it
"How come? Where did they get the news?" The general was puzzled.

Whether it is the battle reports on the front line or the court's analysis of the enemy forces, they are all in the hands of the court.

Even if the Yan court guessed that they were pretending to divide their troops to attack Yuzhou, the court would not tell anyone in order to keep the people's morale stable.

"This……"

The spy said, "The news should have come from Chen Youshi, a colleague in Yuzhou. The general did not know that there was a local noble family in Chenyang County.

The other party's family happens to have a Yuzhou state official, so the other party should be the first to receive the battle report.

He told his family and asked them to leave with him, probably because he came to Chenyang County to visit his wife.

His departure did not attract the attention of others, but his departure must have made some wealthy people smell the danger.

Several wealthy local families in Chenyang County have followed suit..."

This is not surprising. Rich people in many places have a keen sense of danger, and most rich people are afraid of death.

Even if we know that King Zhennan has arrived from the capital, what if the other party is too late?

Rich people cherish their lives and will never use their own lives to block things.

So when the spies wandered into the city as beggars and learned that several wealthy family members in Chenyang County had escaped, they almost didn't rush out.

If these rich people run away, what about the pay for their army?

But there's no point in rushing.

Chenyang County was closed down very quickly.

He failed to spread the news in time, and when it did, Varan's troops hiding in Tan County would not be able to kill Chen Yang immediately.

"Where are their city guards? Aren't they going to stop them?" asked the general of Varan's branch. "The imperial court has not given up on Chenyang County."

As a city guard, he dared to ask all the people to evacuate. Why did he even withdraw the army?

They really won’t kill anyone alive...

"This is naturally because the county officials in Chenyang County are not people with good backgrounds." The spy sighed: "They did not dare to offend these wealthy people who were leaving, and those who were related to them evacuated Chenyang County. They are not easy to stop, plus they are greedy for money...

Although the city was sealed off fairly quickly, people could still escape as long as they gave money or people. "So the pay for their army...

Maybe they all went to the Chenyang County magistrate. The other party used the money to please the court, and maybe he could save his own life...

"..."

I understand, Chenyang County has become like this, and it’s all caused by the Chenyang County defender’s greed for money!
What else could the general of the Waran branch say? He could only scold County Magistrate Liu's ancestors for eighteen generations, and pretend that there is no place like Chenyang County at all.

Then he went to Lin County behind Chenyang County, "Labour and management don't believe it. If the people in Chenyang County run fast, the people in Lin County can also run fast!"

"General, calm down." The military staff said: "It doesn't matter if Chenyang County escapes, we can capture more cities faster than originally planned."

"That's right." Another staff member also sneered, "The people in the city abandoned the city and fled. If word spread, it would only affect their military morale."

"Well said!" The black-faced general raised the ax in his hand and shouted loudly: "Let's go to Lin County!"

"Yes!"

The army set off again.

Magistrate Liu also obviously knew that although Chenyang County had not left any supplies for the Varan rebels, it did not do anything to stop them.

The opponent's next target must be Lin County.
