Chapter 2092 The arrival of the army
Chen Yongfu and others came and left quickly.
The Xu coachman who stayed under the city gate didn't know what to do for a moment.
The money for leaving the city was spent, but the general who just now refused to leave the city. He didn't know whether he should continue to leave the city or retreat to the city.
"Why are you still standing there? Let's go!" The yamen runner Huang Yougui said unhappily when he saw the other party blocking the city gate.
"Oh, OK, OK."
The driver who drove the car jumped out of the carriage and took the reins of the animal, trying to get the animal back and retreat into the city.
"What are you doing, what are you doing!" Huang Yougui's face darkened when he saw the coachman's behavior, and he said, "I'm asking you to leave the city quickly. Could it be that you want to pay the city fee again?"
The coachman then realized.
He hurriedly pulled the cage beside the animal's mouth and walked out of the city.
The Xu family's carriage quickly left the city gate.
Huang Yougui looked at the departing Xu family carriage and curled his lips, saying, "Why did the Xu family get such a fool to drive the car? I'll drive the car into the ditch sooner or later, bah!"
As he said that, he spat on the ground.
"Boss, do you really just let the person out of the city?" A white servant came forward and said worriedly.
The yamen runner Huang Yougui retracted his gaze, glanced at Bai Jun who was talking, and said, "What? I don't want the benefits anymore? If you don't want them, I still want them!"
"No, no, of course I want it, but the General Chen asked us to close the city gate just now and not allow the people to leave the city. Now we will release people out of the city. When General Chen turns around, I know, I am worried about you.
It’s not easy to deal with the job.” said Bai Jun.
Huang Yougui snorted and said, "You know, go and collect the city fee honestly. I will definitely make the decision whether the city gate is closed or not."
The Bai Masao was angry when he saw Huang Yougui, so he ran to collect the city expenses in a sloppy manner.
With the Xu family's carriage out of the city, the people crowded in the city gate breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the high city leave expenses still stopped many people. Most poor people could not afford a hundred big money at all, let alone the family's total of more than one hundred big money.
Some people knelt down and begged, hoping that the guards of the city would give them pity.
Unfortunately, compassion is the cheapest thing in front of money.
Not only did the white soldiers not be kind, but instead punched and kicked a begging people in order to establish their authority, so that other people who wanted to leave the city could understand that the only way to leave the city was to pay the city expenses.
The effect is very obvious after beating people and establishing their authority.
Many people withdrew from the team leaving the city and had to return to the city with their families.
But some people forced themselves to grit their teeth and paid the expenses for the family to escape from the city.
Fortunately, the poor cannot get on the carriage, and they carry their luggage themselves, and at most a wheelbarrow is pushed out of the city.
Even so, the basket in front of Huang Yougui was quickly filled with the fees he received for leaving the city.
Especially big families like the Xu family, they basically take horse-drawn carriages out of the city, and many families have more than one carriage, plus the servants and maids accompanying them.
It can be said that it is a waste of money to collect money.
"The rebels are here, the rebels are here!"
When Huang Yougui was guarding the city gate and happily receiving the expenses for leaving the city, he didn't know who shouted the news of the arrival of the rebels.
The situation here in Dongchengmen was originally quite stable, but it was suddenly blew up by the news of the arrival of the rebels.
Drive! Drive!
A carriage from a wealthy family rushed out and rushed out of the city regardless of concern.
Faced with the sudden collision of the carriage, several white servants chose to follow their hearts, and hid aside and refused to let them go, not daring to confront the carriage head-on.
I was helpless as the carriage left the city.
"Why don't you stop me? Why don't you stop me?" Huang Yougui looked at the carriage leaving the city with a look of pain on his face.
In his eyes, it was not a carriage, but a dazzling silver.
The white servants ignored Huang Yougui's complaints.
I have my own mark in my heart.
They are just the lowest level of white servants in the yamen. If a person dies, he will probably not have his own share of the expenses he leaves the city. Even if he doesn't die, it is not worth doing it if he just breaks his arms and legs.
Although it is obvious that the city expenses have been charged a lot, few of them may end up falling into their hands, which is not enough to ask a doctor to use decoction.
When other carriages inside the city gate saw a carriage breaking out, they all followed suit and rushed out of the city.
Many people who didn't know how to leave the city rushed forward and pushed and ran out of the city.
The scene fell into chaos, and several white soldiers were unable to stop the people leaving the city.
"Hey, I'm leaving, it's completely messy here." A white servant came to Huang Yougui and wanted to help Huang Yougui carry the basket on the table together.
Huang Yougui also understood that the situation in front of him could no longer allow him to continue to charge the city fee.
Although I felt sorry for the fact that I still had so much money to leave the city, I knew that the city gate could not be kept here.
While the people were looking out of the city, he took the Baifu beside him to carry a basket full of copper coins to sing.
He was also worried that if he didn't leave, the people would look at him and finally receive the money he left behind.
The city gate that was not big was crowded with many people and carriages, and they all wanted to leave the city faster, but the faster they wanted to leave the city, the faster they were to get out of the city, the faster they were to leave the city when they were handed over.
However, Huang Yougui didn't care about these things anymore and hid on the top of the city with his city guard.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to go back to the city or go out.
But the city gate is full of people, so it is impossible to leave the city.
As for the way back to the city, the more and more people fleeing from the city, it is undoubtedly difficult for him to go back to the city with so many copper coins.
Moreover, he was worried that people with hearts might encounter rogues like Lahu, and took advantage of the opportunity to steal his expenses for leaving the city.
Step! Step! Step! Step!
The rapid sound of horse hooves appeared outside the gate of Dongcheng, Zhongmu County.
"The rebels are here, run away!"
A cavalry team with more than a thousand people appeared outside the gate of Dongcheng, Zhongmu County, blocking the way out of the city.
This made the people who were crowded and wanted to leave the city rush back into the city.
However, it is easy to retreat, but the carriages are not easy to retreat. Several carriages blocked by the city gate cannot enter and exit. The driver who drove the carriage even left the carriage and fled to the city with the crowd.
"Damn it, these rebels look even more fierce than the official army." Huang Yougui, who was hiding on the city, saw the neat and unified costumes of the cavalry outside the city, subconsciously swallowed.
A white servant hiding beside him whispered: "It doesn't look like a rebel! Could it be an official army?"
"You know," Huang Yougui couldn't help but curse, and then said, "I have seen all my personal soldiers, but I have never seen anyone using muskets. But we came to our rebels in Henan. I heard that everyone is a shot.
