Soldiers were the guts of generals, and generals were the souls of soldiers.
Zhao Feng charged into the granary with the flag and saber in his hand.
How could the soldiers behind him not fight bravely?
In a short distance battle, especially in a situation where the number of people was equal, the most important thing was to have an imposing manner.
The enemy was weak, and I was strong. I was weak, and the enemy was strong. It was that simple.
If Zhao Feng was not afraid of death, why would the soldiers behind him be afraid?
After charging into the granary, the Wei family guards were unable to form an effective counterattack.
? Especially after seeing Zhao Feng who was as fierce as a tiger, they were scared out of their wits and didn't even have the intention to resist.
Some even knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
? Zhao Feng didn't care. Captives were useless to him.
Kill, kill, still kill.
As long as it wasn't his own people, he would kill them all.
In just 15 minutes, all the guards in the granary were wiped out.
Zhao Feng turned around and looked at his brothers.
"How is it?" he asked with a big laugh. Brothers, are you happy? I told you, you will love this feeling.”
"Quickly prepare the kerosene and burn down this granary.”
Before the battle, many people were nervous. When they saw such a lineup, they were so scared that their legs went weak.
Now, they were so excited that they wanted to roar out to vent.
Wei family guards? In the past, when he was an ordinary citizen, he was scared to death.
But now that they were done fighting, what kind of trash were they? He couldn't take it anymore.
Just as everyone was scattering kerosene everywhere.
Suddenly, someone shouted," Marshal, come over and take a look. There are a few big boxes here. They seem to contain valuable things."”
Zhao Feng walked over and looked down.
"Quick, give me a light, let me take a closer look."”
The people beside him quickly lit a torch.
After the torches lit up, everyone around them took a deep breath because the chest was filled with gold.
Even Zhao Feng was shocked. The box was filled with gold coins.
The gold cake was not too big, only the size of a palm, but it was heavy in his hand.
There were at least a few hundred gold coins in each box.
"Quick, take off the clothes of those dead people and use them to store the gold cakes.”
"After you pack them, carry them on your back and take them all away.”
The others hurriedly took action.
After all, it was a big box, especially one that contained gold. It was estimated to weigh almost a thousand pounds. It was basically impossible to carry it away.
They could only spread out and let everyone carry some on their backs.
It would not affect the battle and could be taken away.
There were a total of four large chests, estimated to be at least three to four thousand catties of gold.
What kind of concept was that? Zhao Feng had really struck it rich this time.
Be it in modern times or ancient times, gold had always been a hard currency.
There was a saying that gold in troubled times was antiques in prosperous times.
The more chaotic and unstable the world was, the more valuable gold would be.
Ever since the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out, the price of gold had been rising.
In the black market, a gold cake was enough for a family to live a good life for several years. It could be exchanged for at least ten loads of food. (About 1200 pounds)
? After putting all the gold cakes on, Zhao Feng threw out the torch in his hand and everyone left the granary.
The third granary also caught fire.
? Zhao Feng didn't continue to lead his men to attack and instead gave the order to retreat.
At this moment, the three groups of soldiers and horses began to run toward the meeting hall.
Xu Huang, Yang Feng, and Zhao Feng all started to rush back.
……
After the first warehouse caught fire, Wei County had already received the news.
Wei Bao knew the news immediately and quickly got up to get dressed.
He then called for the guards of the Wei Residence to gather.
Wei Bao, in his early thirties, had a dark expression on his face. At this moment, his expression was as cold as frost.
? To be able to become the head of the family, Wei Bao was naturally a smart person. After knowing that the granary was on fire, he immediately suspected Zhao Feng.
In the entire Hedong County, only Zhao Feng had the guts to do this.
There were 1,000 guards in the Wei family mansion.
This group of guards were the true elites. Most of them were veterans who had retired from the battlefield.
However, it was precisely because they were elites that the Wei family had them guard the mansion and not the granary.
After the guards gathered, Wei Bao was not in a hurry to leave the city. Instead, he went up to the city wall to check on the situation.
Seeing the chaos in the wilderness, Wei Bao was also very helpless.
At this moment, Wei Bao suddenly realized that the third granary was on fire and immediately became anxious.
The two granaries in front were burned down. There were only some grains and sundries inside. They were not worth much.
But the third granary was different.
Wei Bao hid the gold in the third granary because he did not want others to know.
He planned to send the gold inside to Luoyang to bribe the eunuchs. Naturally, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
In the city, there were too many people. For safety reasons, Wei Bao hid in the third granary.
Wei Bao was anxious and hurried down the city.
Riding on his warhorse, he charged out of the city with a thousand cavalrymen and headed straight for the third granary.
Wei Bao was going to save his gold and his future.
It could be said that all the other granaries of the Wei family added together were not worth as much as four chests of gold.
……
Zhao Feng ran back while observing Wei County.
When they saw Wei Bao leading a thousand cavalrymen out.
He muttered,"Tsk tsk, this Wei family is indeed a big family. They can casually take out a thousand cavalry. They are indeed rich."”
"Brothers, hurry up and retreat, don't be surrounded by the Wei clan cavalry.”
? When Zhao Feng returned, Xu Huang and Yang Feng had already returned.
The two of them looked excited.
"Canal Marshal, this feels good. It's been a long time since I've fought such a satisfying battle.”
"That's right, Canal Marshal, what should we do next? If you give the order, I, Yang Feng, will be the vanguard.”
Zhao Feng saw that the cavalry didn't lose anything and relaxed.
Then, he shouted,
"All cavalrymen, mount your horses with me. This time, our target is the Wei Manor in the county town.”
"Bring me the remaining kerosene and fire arrows. This time, I'll bring you to burn down the Wei Manor.”
"Everyone else, stay where you are and wait for our return.”
