Chapter 620: Strange

Last night, Xue Kai welcomed a few strangers and guests in his camp. These people said they were local families in Meixian County. Now they are in contact with him because they want to cooperate with him and help him. To capture Meixian, of course, they also need some benefits afterwards.

Xue Kai didn’t care about this at first, because, in his opinion, even without the help of those in the city, he could win the siege. If he accepts the help of those people, then he Afterwards, he still had to give benefits to those people, and he was a little unwilling in his heart.

However, later, his staff persuaded him that although some benefits must be discarded, they can reduce casualties. Moreover, their benefits are not so easy to take. As long as they seize Meixian, Meixian will be in the future. Within the scope of their control, those who have great cause can not leave at all, do they still have the opportunity to get back the benefits from them?

In the end, Xue Kai accepted the advice of his staff, mainly because he believed that with his own presence, those people would not be able to overcome the storm.

"Going back to the general, our offensive in the morning scared them a long time ago. They heard news that at midnight, they can help us open the east gate, and we can enter the city directly at that time." said the aides.

"Will there be fraud?" Xue Kai asked.

"Probably not." The aides said: "Actually, after the rebels entered the city, they did not converge much in practice. Moreover, I also inquired that the rebels suddenly dealt with a problem yesterday without warning. A local family who supported them, the head of the family was killed, and the family was ransacked. It is estimated that these people are afraid that such things will fall on them. Therefore, they have lost trust in the rebels and will take the initiative to contact us. of."

"Hmph, these guys are quite self-aware." Xue Kai said: "However, when we enter the city, they will know that we will not be much better than the rebels!"

Xue Kai is pretty good to his soldiers, but he has a lot of methods to treat those wealthy businessmen. Otherwise, how can he get so much money to let his men sell his life? It can be said that although the Western Army is nominally an army of the court, it is no different from his personal armed forces.

Over the years, due to the impotence of the imperial court, many troops have suffered from the inability to distribute their military payments in time, and the Western Army is a team that has not been formed for a long time. It is even more painful for grandma and uncle, if not. If Xue Kai obtains the money through his own means, not to mention that the Western Army has the current combat effectiveness, but whether it can exist or not is a question.

And those soldiers naturally knew who was giving them the money, so they were very hardworking to Xue Kai, and even more loyal to him than to the emperor.

The staff also knew why Xue Kai wanted to make money, so he did not discourage him. He even encouraged Xue Kai to make as much money as possible and expand his team, because he has realized that the troubled times have come, and in troubled times. Only if you have enough power in your hands can you survive and live better.

"Okay, you can go and rest too. Since those people help us, we won't attack the city in the afternoon. Let's wait for the arrival of the son." Xue Kai said to his staff.

Subsequently, the staff left, and the entire camp seemed to become quieter.

Throughout the afternoon, the rebels in the city spent the entire afternoon in fear and doubt. They didn't know if they would survive if the opponent attacked the city again. What was puzzled was that the Western Army didn't seem to have any plans to take Meixian in one go.

As for the big bosses, seeing that the Western Army had not attacked the city throughout the afternoon, they were relieved a lot. Even many people were optimistic that they could still hold Meixian County. The Western Army suffered heavy losses in the morning attack. The lives of their people were worth more than their lives. It is estimated that the leader of the Western Army could not bear such a loss, so he gave up the siege.

"I'll just say, we can hold on, those imperial dog thieves are nothing to worry about."

"Yes, fortunately, I didn't report to the leader before, otherwise, I was scolded for nothing?"

"It is estimated that the soldiers of the Western Army have been scared by us, and they may retreat tomorrow."

"I think they have to retreat tonight."

The big bosses of the rebel army are once again optimistic about the current situation. They believe that their desperate determination and courage to fight to the death have frightened the soldiers of the Western Army. They will leave here soon, and The siege of Meixian was solved.

However, Huang Feng and Su Pei are obviously not as optimistic as these big bosses. The more abnormal the Western Army, the more they are suspicious. If the Western Army is attacking again now, it would be better to say, but they are now However, they did not move. Obviously, there was something strange. The two of them didn't think that the Western Army was frightened and did not dare to attack.

"It seems that tonight will not be too peaceful." Su Pei said emotionally.

He is the same as Huang Feng. He thinks that there will be an accident tonight. However, he has no right to direct the big bosses to investigate. At this time, all he can do is protect himself and the safety of his subordinates. Up.

"General Su, my people now have control of Ximen. Once the court comes in, we can leave immediately." Wang Daniu said.

Wang Datou had already taken refuge in Su Pei, so Su Pei naturally couldn't watch him have an accident. At this time, he was also transferred to his side.

Su Pei nodded and didn't say anything. Now it depends on how many people he can take away.

The sky gradually darkened, and the court army on the opposite side still did not move. The rebels at the head of the city relaxed even more. In their opinion, the Western army would not attack anymore, at least not today. After all, in the afternoon Nothing happened. Could it be possible to dispatch at night?

Some leaders of the rebel army even wondered whether they would use the night time to steal the camp. However, even if they were denied, although they did not want to admit it, the current Western army is much stronger than last time, and, They had already suffered a loss last time, and this time it is impossible to not have the slightest preparation. The leading general this time will obviously not be as careless as last time.

Therefore, many leaders of the rebel army did not choose to steal the camp, but what they didn't know was that they didn't trouble the other party, but the other party was going to trouble them tonight.
