He Wu looked at Xin Wu helplessly: "General, should we continue?"
Xin Wu moved his lips, but no sound came out.
Should I add it or not?
If I add it, there is no guarantee that Jiang Yuan and others inside will also add it, but if they don’t, wouldn’t my ten thousand taels of gold be wasted?
You have to know that this silver is military pay. If we spend the money and still fail to capture the city, we will be screwed.
Just as the two were struggling with their inner thoughts, a voice came from afar again.
"Generals! Don't hesitate. This time it's real. If you can raise the amount to twenty taels, the city gates will open immediately!"
"General." He Wu turned and looked at Xin Wu.
"Damn it!" Xin Wu clenched the sword in his hand. He had already given so much money, and the military salary could not be paid much, so he might as well take a chance.
Anyway, the worst outcome is nothing more than an attack on the city. By then, with the 20,000 men under his command, even if they fight to the death, they will be able to take over Taiping County.
It is reasonable to take action against these untrustworthy guys. The money will still be yours in the end, so what is there to be afraid of!
"He Wu, have someone bring out the silver and send it to them. I hope they won't challenge our bottom line!"
"Yes!"
He Wu waved his hands menacingly at the soldiers in the rear: "Let's go! Follow me to move the silver!"
Soon, when several large boxes of silver were moved to the bottom of the Taiping County wall again, Jiang Yuan directed everyone to pull all the silver up. He Wu, who was standing not far away, looked at the city gate with red eyes.
If you don't open it, you're really shameless.
On the city wall, Jiang Yuan looked at the boxes filled with silver in front of him and said, "Yes, General Long, please make arrangements. This time, everything is almost done. Let's prepare for the battle."
"Yes, sir, but should we carry the silver away first? It will be difficult to deal with if a fight breaks out." Long Guangxian said.
Jiang Yuan gave Long Guangxian a mysterious smile and said, "No need. The gold we earned earlier is already earned."
"I've been thinking about this little bit of money, and I really don't deserve it. Holding it makes me uneasy, so I'll just destroy it."
Jiang Yuan said this and picked up the loudspeaker again and shouted at He Wu.
"General! I have received the silver, but I have to tell you with regret!"
"Just now, the county magistrate has demoted my command status. I'm afraid I can't get anything done!"
He Wu's pupils shrank, and he looked at the guy on the city wall whose appearance was not very clear with shock.
What did I hear?
Can't get things done without your command?
If you want to do this, shouldn't you just raise your arms and say, "Brothers, this corrupt official is heartless and ungrateful. Why don't we find another wise leader?"
Now that they say they will impeach you, you will be impeached, so why the hell are you still rebelling?
However, before He Wu could react, he heard an angry roar from Xin Wu behind him.
"All-out attack!"
"The first person to kill that bastard will be promoted three levels and receive a reward of 1,000 taels!"
"Bang! Bang!"
The sound of war drums rang out, and a team of tens of thousands of people trampled the ground, making it buzz. The shield soldiers charged forward, using their flesh and blood to forcibly open a path for the troops.
It was not until hundreds of soldiers pushing ladders passed by He Wu that he reacted, quickly drew his sword, hid behind the ladder and began to move forward.
The city wall of Taiping County.
"Please step aside, sir!" Long Guangxian looked at Jiang Yuan anxiously.
"General Long, don't worry about me. I will naturally retreat when danger comes." Jiang Yuan said calmly.
Not long after, when the local siege ladders were set up on the city wall and no one was seen climbing out, Jiang Yuan immediately handed the loudspeaker to Wang Gang.
"Quick! Do as I just taught you!"
"Don't worry, sir!"
Wang Gang nodded vigorously, raised the loud speaker, gathered all the inner energy and started shouting:
"Listen up, rebels! All your military pay is now in our hands. We can't even get your next month's pay. Do you want to work for someone like us?"
"But our Lord is kind-hearted and willing to give you some silver!"
As soon as Wang Gang finished speaking, Jiang Yuan and Li Hu dragged a box of silver together and threw it directly down.
He Wu had just rushed to the foot of the wall and had not yet had time to climb up the ladder when a piece of silver falling from the sky hit his armor. He caught the silver with disdain and directly squeezed it out of shape.
"Humph! You think this little thing can disturb my mind? Dream on!"
However, just as He Wu finished saying this, more and more silver fell from the sky.
He Wu didn't think it was a big deal. After all, this was a battlefield, and no matter how much money he had, he had to survive.
Of course, the veterans in the team can understand this truth, but who can guarantee that all those rushing over are veterans?
For the army, the most valuable thing is not the silver or the various equipment, but the human lives that seem to be the least valuable on the battlefield.
Of course, it’s not the lives of these cannon fodder recruits, but the lives of those veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles and can survive time and time again!
No matter what time, the lives of these veterans are the most important, and they will never be allowed to charge unless the outcome is decided.
Although Xin Wu was deceived and lost some rationality in anger, he would never let the veterans charge right away. This resulted in most of the people under the city wall not having much combat experience.
Seeing the silver at this moment, even if he could control himself from picking it up, his eyes couldn't help but glance at the ground.
As soon as they stopped, the soldiers rushing towards them from behind started to panic.
"Charge! Charge quickly! Don't you want to live anymore?" He Wu roared angrily at these people.
However, Jiang Yuan on the city wall would never miss such a good opportunity to fight. He smiled and brought a jar of hellfire to the top of the city.
"Brothers under the city wall, money alone is not enough, I also have wine here!"
"It's not a particularly good wine, but it's incredibly hot!"
As he spoke, Jiang Yuan suddenly dropped the jar in his hand, and a row of soldiers on the city wall dropped the jars in their hands one after another.
"Li Hu!"
"coming!"
As two roars sounded, Li Hu quickly shuttled across the battlefield, kicking down the stoves that had been erected on the city walls one by one.
In an instant, countless braziers fell, and He Wu, who was watching all this happening before his eyes, suddenly had an expression of fear on his face.
From the time he threw the silver until now, it was only five seconds in total. He was able to react, but the key point was that not everyone was a master of the third realm, and not everyone was him, He Wu.
It was not until the unknown liquid in the jar splashed on their faces that these guys reacted and retreated desperately.
However, it was too late.
As the first brazier fell on an unlucky guy.
boom!
All that was left in front of He Wu was a sea of violent fire...
