According to the previous agreement, Ren Qiong would only get a small share of the wealth, which was a great loss. Du Qi had brought a lot of wealth to Jiuquan County, and there was a lot of food in the city. Ren Qiong had given up most of the benefits, but now he still wanted to change it.
Ren Qiong thought that Tian Fuyu wanted to take the benefits and raise the price.
So Ren Qiong was very angry.
Seeing the expression on Ren Qiong's face, Tian Fuyu smiled and said, "Ren Qiong, you misunderstood me. I'm not trying to be greedy."
"At this time, how can I raise the price and try to get more benefits?"
"The reason why I said that the previous agreement was invalid is because attacking Jiuquan County is already very difficult. Under this premise, we have to make some adjustments. "
Tian Fuyu said, "That's why I'm making adjustments?"
Ren Qiong said, "How?"
At this moment, Ren Qiong's hand was already on the hilt of the sword at his waist. He looked like he was going to fall out with Tian Fuyu if Tian Fuyu said something wrong. Of course, Ren Qiong did this on purpose. He couldn't let Tian Fuyu look down on him.
Tian Fuyu shook his head and smiled.
He didn't think that Ren Qiong's little tricks were meaningful. What they needed now was sincere cooperation. It was the key to taking down Jiuquan County. Tian Fuyu couldn't be bothered to argue with Ren Qiong.
Tian Fuyu said, "Since the siege isn't going well, we have to raise the morale of the soldiers and let them go all out to attack."
"Only then will we have a chance to take down the county."
"Moreover, only by attacking with all our strength can we attract Du Qi's forces to the tower of the county and create an opportunity for the people in the city."
"So now, my suggestion is to tell all the attacking soldiers that as long as they take down Jiuquan County, they are allowed to plunder for three days."
Tian Fuyu's face had a ferocious expression. He said, "As long as the resources they plunder during this time will belong to them. With this order, I believe that all the soldiers will go all out and be greatly encouraged. "
"Hiss!"
Ren Qiong couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
His eyes were filled with shock.
Ren Qiong was a Lone Mountain Bandit, occupying Lone Mountain. However, when Ren Qiong went down the mountain to plunder, he still left some leeway. After all, he lived in Jiuquan County. If he killed, burned, and looted everything, they wouldn't have anything to rob in the future.
Everyone had run away, and they had no chance of survival. They couldn't possibly let them produce food on their own.
However, if they followed Tian Fuyu's orders and let the soldiers loot freely, the entire Jiuquan County would definitely be turned into scorched earth. It would definitely be incomparably miserable.
This kind of situation was something that Ren Qiong was not willing to choose.
Tian Fuyu glanced at Ren Qiong and said indifferently, "Brother Ren, don't blame me for not reminding you. If we spend so much effort but fail to break into Jiuquan County and return empty-handed this time, then Du Qi will lead his troops to kill us. "
After a pause, Tian Fuyu continued, "When the time comes, you won't be able to withstand Du Qi's attacks and will lose your life. You led your troops to attack Jiuquan County and killed Du Qi's soldiers. Now that they have a grudge, Du Qi won't let you live. You may be benevolent, but it's very unfriendly to the soldiers in the army. "
When Ren Qiong heard this, he completely threw caution to the wind. He originally still had a trace of rationality in his mind. He nodded and said, "General Tian, give the order."
When Tian Fuyu heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
He had plenty of ways to deal with people like Ren Qiong. He didn't need to have a glib tongue. A little persuasion would suffice.
Tian Fuyu immediately called for a messenger and asked him to inform the soldiers behind him to shout the order to stop the plundering of the county for three days. After this order was passed down, someone began to shout, "Soldiers who are attacking, listen up …"
These words were shouted by the thieves in the army.
Their voices were transmitted to the city tower. Du Qi also heard the shouts outside the city. He narrowed his eyes. He wanted to see what other tricks Ren Qiong and Tian Fuyu had up their sleeves.
"Soldiers who are attacking, listen up. Everyone, attack with all your might and break into Jiuquan County. You are allowed to plunder for three days."
The order was shouted out in unison.
The voices were in unison.
The soldiers inside and outside the city could hear it clearly. Because the voices were so loud, countless people in the city knew that there were enemies outside the city.
Du Qi also heard this sentence.
He smiled coldly.
No matter what orders Ren Qiong and Tian Fuyu gave, Du Qi didn't have much of a problem. The soldiers under his command were more than enough to defend the county.
Especially since he was on the defending side, there were only five thousand thieves outside the city. Even if there were spies, it would be a joke to think that five thousand people could break into a sturdy county.
However, no matter what, all of the attacking bandits were incomparably excited when they heard Tian Fuyu's orders.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Battle cries rose one after another.
The eyes of countless bandits had already turned red as they charged forward without regard for anything else.
Whether it was the thieves under Tian Fuyu's command or Ren Qiong's, they were just following along to plunder and have a place to stay. They didn't have any money. Anyway, they had food and drinks in the team.
That was all!
Tian Fuyu's order gave them a chance to strike it rich.
They could plunder wealth.
They could plunder women.
Once they entered the city, they could plunder at will and find women to vent. Most of the soldiers in the army were actually single. Many of them had never even touched a woman's hand in their lives.
They could plunder wantonly. They could plunder women and then vent their frustrations.
Everyone rushed forward as if they had gone mad.
At this moment, they put a lot of pressure on the defending side of the city.
After seeing this, Du Qi's expression didn't change. It was precisely in such an environment that he could sharpen his soldiers and make them mature. The flames of war were a good way to sharpen soldiers.
Although there would be losses and deaths, this was a battlefield. This was also the law of survival in a chaotic world. If they wanted to live, if they wanted to obtain a better life, they could only risk their lives to kill the enemy.
"Report!"
At this moment, a deep and loud voice came from the road leading into the city.
This voice belonged to Ma Yuan.
A series of footsteps could be heard. Ma Yuan and Huang Shi rushed over. When they left earlier, Huang Shi didn't know that a battle was about to happen. When the battle started and the horn sounded, Huang Shi and Ma Yuan noticed it at the same time. The two of them packed up and rushed over.
The two of them were Du Qi's trusted subordinates. It was impossible for them not to participate in the battle.
Ma Yuan cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness, I, Ma Yuan, request to participate in the battle."
Huang Shi said, "I request to participate in the battle."
"Kill!"
All of a sudden, torches lit up in the city. About a hundred steps away from the city gate, a group of people charged over. There were about a hundred of them.
This group of people were the remnants of the First Under Heaven Pavilion.
When Du Qi saw this group of people, he smiled and said, "Ma Yuan, Huang Shi, you guys came at the right time. There are a hundred soldiers lying in ambush at the city gate. They are here to prevent any sudden attacks from happening inside the city. Immediately go down the city gate tower and stop the attackers. Completely annihilate them. "
"Yes!"
Ma Yuan and Huang Shi replied in unison.
To the two of them, this wasn't a difficult task. After all, there were still soldiers below the city gate tower.
