The Cao Army, who were charging forward, suddenly saw a black mass of something pouring down from the sky. They thought it was a hidden weapon and wanted to dodge it, but when they looked at it, their eyes widened.
"Money! It's money!"
"So much money!"
"Snatch!"
The scene instantly became chaotic. Everyone was no longer in the mood to fight, and they all bent down to grab the copper coins and stuffed them into their pockets.
Xiahou Yuan was exasperated." Do you want to die? We are fighting now, stop!”
The effect wasn't great. Even if they didn't pick it up again, their minds and eyes were always on the money.
"Kill them!"
How could Wang Mou let go of this opportunity? He immediately led the defenders to launch a fierce attack, forcing the Cao army to retreat.
"A bunch of idiots!"
Xiahou Yuan saw that he couldn't do anything, so he quickly turned around and fled.
Only a few Miaomiao from the hundreds of Cao troops managed to escape. Most of them were cut down on the ground, and the crisis was averted!
"Young Master is brilliant!"
"Hehe…This is what it means to die for wealth!"
Seeing the guards staring at the money on the ground, Wang Mou laughed and scolded,"This money will be yours sooner or later. Leave it there and don't worry about it. It will be our weapon to defend the city. When the Cao army retreats, you can take it!”
Everyone was overjoyed." Thank you, Young Master!"
Seeing that this method was effective, Wang Mou immediately ordered,"Carry out all the valuables and throw them all over the aisle. If there's not enough, ask the wealthy merchants for more!”
"Yes!"
Le Jin happily climbed over the city wall, thinking, I, Hu Hansan, am back again. Wang Mou, you son of a b * tch.
But as soon as he landed, he felt that something was wrong. Where did he get so much money? Who dropped it?"
He immediately reacted." Not good!"
The soldiers who had caught up with them were already lying on the ground and frantically fishing, not having the slightest awareness of being on the battlefield.
When he raised his head again, Wang Mou had already led his troops to charge over aggressively.
Le Jin looked at the soldiers around him and then at the wolf-like guards. Without saying anything, he turned around and ran, not daring to stay for even a moment.
Just like that, Wang Mou used the method of 'money and silks move people's hearts' to disintegrate the Cao army's momentum and stabilize the north gate.
Cao Cao gritted his teeth when he heard the news." Damn Wang Mou, why do you have so many evil ideas? Even if you're rich, you won't squander like this!"
Facing such a situation, attacking by force was no longer a good idea. They could only order the siege to be postponed and gather the generals to discuss countermeasures.
"Think of a way to break Wang Mou's shameless tactic.”
This would make things difficult for everyone!
Xi Zhicai analyzed," Even if there are strict orders not to pick it up, the soldiers 'minds will still be attracted and their combat strength will be greatly reduced! Even if they were told that all these would be theirs after the city was breached, this situation would still happen! There was only one solution.”
"What method is it?”
"Tell the soldiers not to kill the enemy after climbing up the city wall. Pick up the money and leave. Let's see how much money the other party has to squander like this? However, there is a drawback. Wang Mou will definitely not watch for nothing and will definitely take the opportunity to pursue us. Our army will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. In other words, using lives to exchange for property!”
Cao Cao shook his head." No, no, in this chaotic world, military strength is the foundation of everything. How can we waste it like this?”
"Think again!"
Everyone racked their brains, but they still couldn't think of a good idea.
Seeing that the Cao army was not attacking the city, Wang Mou could not stay any longer. After giving some instructions, he hurried to the south gate. He was really worried.
When he arrived at the southern gate, he found that the situation was not bad. The Cao army did not have the advantage, which made him feel much more at ease.
When Wang Mou found Xu Sheng, he found that he was being lectured while giving orders.
A middle-aged scholar in his thirties was beside him, his saliva flying everywhere.
" The way to defend a city is to be stable. Every tool corresponds to every situation in order to be of the greatest use. Our ancestor has already summarized this experience for us. If you don't know how to do it, just do it. At most, you can be flexible, but you can't deviate from the principle. You're good. In order to deal with a mere lieutenant, you actually used the golden liquid extravagantly? Do you think he's Cao Ren, the general? It was simply a waste! Also, the random arrows just now…"
The middle-aged scholar was chattering non-stop, scolding Xu Sheng until he didn't have any temper at all. However, he didn't dare to retort and just humbly accepted the teachings.
Wang Mou walked over with a face full of amusement."Wen Xiang, how's the situation?”
"Young Master, why are you here?"
"If you're worried, then come over and take a look! This is…"
Without Xu Sheng's introduction, the middle-aged scholar bowed to Wang Mou." Zhang Zhao greets Young Master!”
Wang Mou's eyes widened." Is that Zhang Zibu?”
"That's right!"
Wang Mou was overjoyed. He stepped forward and held Zhang Zhao's hand." I've long heard of your name, sir. I didn't expect to meet you here. Why didn't you follow Tao Gongzu to seek refuge?”
"My hometown is facing a war disaster, how can I be alone? On behalf of the citizens of Peng City, I would like to thank Young Master for saving my life!”
"Sir, you're too polite. This is the duty of a person!”
Zhang Zhao praised in his heart. What a good sentence. Compared to him, Cao Jun was simply not worthy of being a human. He was even worse than a beast!
Zhang Zhao was from Pengcheng. Tao Qian had repeatedly refused to comply with his request and had even been imprisoned. It was only because of his friend's request that he was able to regain his freedom.
