    Li Hou originally chased them all the way, but then he saw that there were no soldiers following behind him. He immediately became cruel and devoured the civilians in the city with demonic magic.  Among the several large cities that stretched away, there were no less than millions of Mu people. Liu Fengming mistakenly thought that the Mu people had removed the civilians early, but the generals of the Mu people thought they had been massacred by the Central Plains army.  This matter was debated for hundreds of years after the war, and then became a dead case.

    They captured five big cities of the Mu tribe in succession. Four of the remaining five were located on the other side of the Nao River, and the remaining one was on the Nao River behind the big city on this side of the Nao River. One after another, the Mu navy troops came from afar, but for a while  Nature is invincible.  Fortunately, there were countless specialties of the Mu tribe in the captured cities. Liu Fengming continuously sent the loot back to the Central Plains, and the whole country was naturally jubilant.  After Zhao Dingkun learned about Li Hou's military exploits, he was even more delighted. He immediately promoted Li Hou several levels and became a general in the Zhao Dynasty.

    "If we say that those who really occupy a place in the army are undoubtedly the lieutenant generals, generals and the general in the military headquarters.  The general in charge of millions of soldiers across the country was held by Zhao Yintian himself, while Liu Fengming held the position of general. Zhao Dingkun defied all opinions and promoted Li Hou to the rank of general, which was also a sign of rebellion.

    Then Zhao Dingkun issued another military order and mobilized 400,000 troops to join Li Hou's command. Liu Fengming was also asked to garrison the city that had been captured. Li Hou's troops instead sent a large army to conquer, waiting for the opportunity to move, hoping to capture Mu Nao before the end of the year.  The land south of the river.

    "Well, put the wool and sheepskin here, the jewelry over there, the gold and silver in the middle, hey, hey, hey, that guy, the centurion, asked you to put it in the middle."

    Li Hou held a horse whip in his arms and stood in the main hall of Hefeng City. He watched the soldiers carrying boxes with great excitement and placing boxes of treasures in the hall.  Hefeng City is relatively wealthy, with one and a half boxes of gold, twenty or thirty boxes of silver, and a lot of other valuable items.  However, Li Hou was too vicious. He even pulled down the night-light pearls used for lighting in the city lord's mansion and threw them into the pile of gold and silver.

    Li Hou couldn't help but think that if he could break into the Mu clan's palace, he would be able to get many times more gold, silver and jewelry than he does now. Although these things are of no use to him, they can be found in the secular world.  After a long time, I started to have some thoughts of greed for money.

    He was so triumphant that he didn't notice that the generals under Liu Fengming had sneaked out of the city lord's palace and ran away. Only Zong Zhengwen was by his side with a smile on his face.  After the generals rushed out of the gate, they immediately ran into the barracks and shouted loudly: "Where are the heralds sent by General Fengming? Where have they gone? Recruit them all."

    A hundred households looked nervously at the generals and explained in a low voice: "Just now, General Li Hou ordered all the soldiers to move the granaries outside the city. He said that he wanted to transport all the food to the city. The heralds went to the barracks.  I sent an order to all my brothers to go out and transport food."

    The six military generals almost fainted, and a Qianhu screamed: "Are you so stupid? When we talk about dividing the spoils, do you really divide the spoils? Isn't it a big joke if it spreads? We are all General Fengming.  My subordinates, have you forgotten how strict General Fengming controls the army? If the Ministry of War finds out, will we have our own future in the future? I think General Fengming will cut you all off."

    The hundred households looked at the six immediate superiors with aggrieved eyes, full of grievances. He cursed in his heart: "Mother, I just heard someone say that they want to share the benefits with the brothers, so they nodded without saying a word. Wait until General Li Hou  They sent all the people out, and now you are blaming me. I am just a hundred households. You have no objections. I dare to say anything. But I am just following orders, but it has nothing to do with me. Even the Ministry of War and General Fengming  If you want to be held accountable, it¡¯s your fault too.¡±

    "However, only a fool would say such a thing. The hundred households just lowered their heads and remained silent.

    A head of a thousand households grabbed a white wax pole from the weapon rack of the guard station and shouted loudly: "No matter how many things there are, go and call the heralds back quickly and let the clerk write down everything here clearly.  The more detailed the better, and then report it back to General Fengming and let the general suppress him, otherwise it will be terrible if military discipline is broken."

    At this time, there was a noise of people and horses at the door of the barracks. When these military attach¨¦s rushed out to see, it was hundreds of soldiers escorting carriages, transporting carts of grain and grass to the lobby of the city lord's palace.  A Qianhu grinned and smiled bitterly: "Does General Li Hou have any brains? He just wants people to take out the gold and silver in the treasury. Why should he take all the food in the granary to the lobby? Is that lobby?  JustCan you afford so much food?  "

    Another general yelled and cursed: "What are you doing? Are you really following his orders to transport grain and grass? You bastards, get over here. Go, take back all the gold, silver and jewelry that have been distributed, and bring the grain and grass to me."  Transport it into the grain depot, and send people to put up the general's flag at the top of the cityQuickly, don't worry about these grains and grass, go find the herald first."

    After busying for a while, I finally sorted out this chaotic scene. When the herald arrived, several thousand households surrounded the herald. The clerk was dancing with his brush beside him, writing full of words.  Head sweating profusely.  After the heralds rushed towards Liu Fengming's brigade, several thousand households looked at each other a few times, smiled bitterly, and then summoned hundreds of soldiers to escort the carriage towards the lobby of the city lord's palace.

    The convoy meandered to the gate of the Yamen, where soldiers had already sent dozens of carts of grain and grass in. There were too many grain carts, and the courtyard of the city lord's mansion was already packed. Several thousand households were stunned for a few times, but they had no choice but to leave.  The grain cart was placed on the street, and he dusted himself off and walked in quickly.

    With a ¡®boom¡¯, the wall of the city lord¡¯s palace was shattered by a huge force, revealing a space more than ten feet long.  Li Hou jumped onto a grain truck with great dignity. With the mace in his hand, he shouted loudly: "Gold, silver, ah, ransack the house. Those civilians ran fast and didn't take away anything in the house. Move it all to me."  Come here, everyone has a share, and everyone will be rewarded!"

    The five hundred soldiers led by the six generals were stunned on the spot. After hearing what Li Hou said, they looked nothing like the Central Army of the Zhao Dynasty. They were no different from bandits.  And those soldiers who were lucky enough to survive from the tens of thousands of infantry regiments led by Li Hou when he attacked the city had already obeyed Li Hou's orders and ran towards the largest houses in Hefeng City.  Li Hou stood proudly on the grain cart and laughed wildly. His eyes were shining with a golden light, as if his eyes were polished with gold.

    One of the generals gritted his teeth and roared loudly: "General Li Hou, if we really divide the spoils privately, the military discipline of our Central Army will be ruined."

    After being stunned for a moment, Li Hou looked at the several thousand households standing in a row in front of him with a smile, and spat into the pile of grain.

    There was a crunching sound, and Li Hou exerted a strong force on his feet. It seemed that a carriage had been trampled down. The sounds of "crunching" and "crunching" kept coming, and the wheels of the overturned carriage slowly turned.

    "What were you doing when I led my brothers to attack the city? Brothers rushed and killed them one by one regardless of their lives, so they took the gold and silver. Why can't they be divided? I don't know about military discipline. I only know about the brothers' homes.  There are still people who want money to live back home, especially the dead brothers, whose pension is only a few dozen taels of silver. How do you want them to live? If you don¡¯t want to, just get out of here. My brothers can still get double share!"

    In the eyes of people like Li Houcai, he was a god of murder. Now that he was showing off his power, he was filled with murderous intent. How dare every thousand households dare to say a word? What's more, what Li Hou said was justified and his voice was loud.  , I am afraid you can hear it clearly from a few streets away. Groups of soldiers came after hearing the sound and surrounded the city lord's palace. Seventy-eight percent of them were soldiers from the infantry battalion when they attacked the city.

    Li Hou didn't even bother to look at the six trembling generals who didn't dare to talk to each other. He shouted and cursed loudly: "Brothers, if you want money, let me search for it. If nothing else, at least those brothers who died in battle, we can't take them."  You're being treated badly! Don't let me know about anyone who dares to be greedy privately." After saying that, Li Hou grabbed the axle of a grain truck with one hand, exerted a slight force, and saw that the thick chestnut wood axle was pinched into two pieces.  As a result, the area held by Li Hou turned into wood slag.

    Seeing that the situation outside was different, the dog-headed military advisor Zong Zhengwen, who was about to come to persuade, saw Li Hou's fierceness, but smiled slightly on his face and said nothing.

    After a while, the soldiers sent out by Li Hou to search for gold and silver rushed back, dragging sacks one after another behind them. The sacks fell to the ground and were dragged along, making a clattering sound.

    "General, it seems that the rich families left in a hurry. They didn't have time to move a lot of things. The young people only took a very small part. Please ask the general to send people to search."

    Li Hou picked up a general with one hand and shouted: "You guys, take people to move all the houses of the rich families for me. The uncle only wants half, and I don't care about the other uncles. Most of them are returnees anyway."  Brothers roar, go quickly, if you don¡¯t want to die, go and bring their gold and silver over here.¡±

    The six generals looked at each other for a long time, then suddenly let out a strange cry and roared several times. Regardless of the soldiers who had heard their heroic words, they rushed out like wolves with hundreds of new soldiers.  .  Damn,Just as he has no way to disobey his orders now, if the issue of pension makes his brothers have different intentions, it will be troublesome to lead the army in the future.  Besides, he also received Li Hou's military order. When the time comes, the Ministry of War and General Fengming will pursue Li Hou, and Li Hou should be fine with the emperor's favor.  Now that it was clear that Li Hou was going to plunder, they would be sorry for themselves if they didn't get some benefits.
