Chapter 1126: Pingzhou Golden Ticket
Command your army of crossbowmen to launch a tentative attack, watch out for enemy catapults and ballistas. "
Tai Shici issued the order weakly, his face was full of depression.
A few days ago, he proposed to Liu Yi to launch a surprise attack on Linzi City, and Liu Yi finally agreed to this suggestion. However, Tai Shici's original intention was to lead an army to attack Linzi city by surprise, but the final result was that Liu Yi led his army to attack Linzi, leaving Tai Shici to preside over the overall situation here.
And Wu Anguo fought very hard, no matter how provocative Tai Shici was, he just didn't go out of the city to fight.
And Liu Yi did not allow the storming of Ju County without the cover of heavy engineering equipment, which made the battle on the frontal battlefield very boring. The armies of both sides just shot at each other without technical content, making Tai Shici drowsy.
"Hey, if I knew it earlier, I should have handed over the army to Feng Yu's command. It's so interesting to follow the commander in surprise attack on Linzi City!"
Tai Shici sighed, and said with some annoyance.
However, he also knew that this was just a complaint. With Feng Yu's qualifications and meritorious service, he was not qualified to command three elite combat armies.
"General, it's almost time, it's time to withdraw troops."
Seeing that Tai Shici was distracted, the deputy general who narrated had no choice but to remind him.
"Oh? Is it time already? Then withdraw the troops quickly."
Tai Shici looked up at the sun, saw the scorching sun was hanging high, and it was already noon, so he got up and stretched, and said indifferently.
"Mingjin retreats!"
The deputy general immediately took orders and conveyed Ming Jin's order to withdraw troops.
The siege army retreated like a tide, and they were completely withdrawn in a blink of an eye. The Kong Rong army on the top of the city was not surprised, and stopped fighting tacitly. Seeing this, the recruited people immediately sent the prepared meals to the city wall, and Kong Rong army began to eat in batches.
In the past few days, Kong Rongjun has gotten used to Tai Shici's clock-in-the-clock fighting. Every day, he scolds in the morning, shoots in the morning, and shoots while cursing in the afternoon. Get up together in the morning, and first send a group of people to challenge under the city wall, which is comparable to a square dance that disturbs the people.
Swear for about an hour, withdraw troops for breakfast, and dispatch bow and crossbow troops to shoot long-range after eating, shoot and curse at the same time in the afternoon, three stages a day, get off work on time when the time comes, never work overtime when attacking the city, and are extremely self-disciplined!
Kong Rongjun also went from being nervous at the beginning to being indifferent now,
Gradually began to become firm.
Looking at the soldiers talking and laughing on the city wall, Wu Anguo was not in a happy mood. He didn't believe that the famous Liu Yi (Wu Anguo believed that Liu Yi was the leader of the army) had only this kind of means. He firmly believed that Liu Yi was up to something, but he couldn't find any clues, so he could only order the army to strengthen its vigilance.
However, the morale of the army is easy to vent and difficult to raise. Once the soldiers get used to this kind of loose and regular fighting, it is not something Wu Anguo can do if they want to get nervous again.
In the darkness of night, an army is advancing silently. The number of troops is small, only about 20,000, but everyone is dressed in black and armored, and even the horses are pure black. There are special thick pads on the hooves of the horses, and the sound of running is almost inaudible.
The night is Liu Yi's home field, and there is no need for any torches to illuminate it. Under Liu Yi's leadership, the Ghost Rider is really like a ghost in the night, galloping quietly and swiftly.
At night, the ghost cavalry is completely integrated with the surrounding night. Without close-up observation, the ghost cavalry cannot be found at all.
In order to demonstrate the feasibility of the plan, Liu Yi even tried it before. He led 5,000 ghost cavalry around a city at night. The ghost cavalry closest to the city was less than a mile away. There was no response.
As time went by, Liu Yi's troops were getting closer and closer to Linzi.
"Marshal, we are still a hundred miles away from Linzi, and there is no abnormality at present."
"Marshal, we are fifty miles away from Linzi, and there is no abnormality at present."
"Twenty miles, no abnormalities."
"Wuli, tell the Commander-in-Chief that Linzi City is right in front of us, please show the Commander-in-Chief what to do."
Soon, the majestic and majestic Linzi City was already in sight, and Liu Yi led his army to stop less than five miles away from Linzi City. This is already a very short distance for high-level cavalry. On a flat road, it would not even take a minute for high-level cavalry to charge with all their strength.
Because of the war, Linzi city has been under martial law, the city gates are tightly closed, there are a large number of patrolling soldiers at each gate, and a whale oil lamp ten steps above the city head illuminates the sky as if it were daytime.
"Notify the people in the city that they can act now."
Looking at Linzi City, Liu Yi took a deep breath, calmed down his excitement, and ordered in a low voice.
In Linzi City, at a gate, a middle-aged man in brocade robes was riding a horse, followed by hundreds of servants in armor and holding weapons, running wildly on the wide streets.
Naturally, such a blatant move could not be concealed from the defenders at the city gate. Immediately, a general led a team of cavalry out to stop the middle-aged man in brocade robe.
"Who am I? Why are you Mr. He? What are you doing? In the middle of the night, if you accidentally hurt Mr. He, you will be in trouble."
The general was obviously familiar with the leading middle-aged man in brocade, and he joked as he got off his horse.
"General Lee."
Mr. He got off his horse, first clasped his fists together, and then said anxiously: "General Li, I have something important to leave the city, so I ask General Li to accommodate me."
As he said that, Mr. He also took out a stack of bronzing paper with complicated patterns printed on it, and stuffed it into General Li's hands.
General Li glanced at it, saw the huge "Shang" character on the top and the slightly smaller "One" character on the bottom, and immediately put it away with a smile on his face.
This is the large-value transaction certificate issued by the Pingzhou government, commonly known as "golden ticket". As long as you hold the voucher, you can go to any official store in Pingzhou to exchange 1,000 gold coins, or buy goods of the corresponding currency value, and holding this voucher has the right of first refusal.
It's ridiculous to say that while Kong Rong was at war with Shang Ji, on the other hand, such bills in Qingzhou were still unimpeded. And because it is easy to carry and has a high reputation, it is very popular with aristocratic families from all over the world.
Shangji clearly stipulated that large-value transactions (a single transaction exceeding 100,000 gold or more) between the owner and the general's mansion must be settled with gold tickets.
If you want to buy a large amount of medicines, war horses, food, armor, wine and other commodities produced in Pingzhou, you can't bring gold coins. You have to go to the Pingzhou Gold Store to exchange them for gold tickets before you can trade. Of course, if you want to exchange the gold tickets for gold coins, merchants will never stop you, and you will not be charged any fees during the exchange process.
This move looks like taking off your pants and farting, but the meaning contained in it can refer to real-world dollars.
Under the vigorous promotion of Shang Ji, the scope of circulation of gold tickets is extremely wide, and Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Bingzhou are the "hardest hit areas".
Kong Rong also knew about this situation. On the surface, the circulation of gold tickets in Qingzhou was banned, but because the scope was too wide and the chain of interests involved was too complicated, Kong Rong did not dare to really ban it, so he could only turn a blind eye.
The Mr. He just handed over five gold tickets, equivalent to five thousand gold, which was a real windfall for this general.
"Mr. He, what's the matter with you? Why are you rushing out of the city in the middle of the night?"
Although General Li took the money, he didn't rush to open the door, instead he asked curiously.
"Oh, don't mention it. The old man received a message from his clansman that there was a remnant of moth thieves who dared to attack my He clan's Wubao outside the city. Do you think this old man can sit and wait for death? Don't tell General Li, wait for the old man to fight After retiring the bandit army, I invite General Li to drink again later, and I also ask General Li to open the city gate and let the old man go out for convenience."
