Speaking of which, more heads were beheaded by wolf soldiers than by official troops.
After all, too many people thought that forests were easier to break through than camps, until they were hunted by wolf soldiers in the mountains and forests.
Only then did I realize what a terrifying trap it was.
Cen Meng had chopped off the heads of more than 200 people before, but Yang Chengzu did not take any advantage and directly rewarded him with more than 10,000 taels of silver based on the standard of fifty taels per song, and he paid in cash.
Such a large amount can be called a huge sum of money in the barren land of Guangxi.
Even if they do not consider the marriage relationship and only think about silver, Cen Lian's men are particularly enthusiastic when hunting pirates.
Even though there are many good players in the commando team, they are all killed by the wolf soldiers in the end when they fight in an environment like the mountains.
Previously, some people in the army were dissatisfied with Yang Chengzu's reward of silver to Cen Meng.
Everyone could see that those heads were not beheaded by wolf soldiers.
This kind of treatment method that benefits the villain is obviously not fair, but if the person involved Xinjun doesn't speak, it will be difficult for others to say anything.
By this time, they all understood that this was a thousand pieces of gold to buy horse bones, and they wanted to use this money to inspire the whole army to kill people.
Wang Hong is concerned about another thing.
As of today, there have been three ships transporting supplies, food and water to Tuen Mun.
These things are not precious on weekdays, but the army is stationed here, which consumes a lot of money.
Even if the army has supply ships, this consumption will put great pressure on the troops.
Furthermore, there are always problems of one kind or another in the supply of grain and grass in Guangzhou.
It is obvious that someone is obstructing it and deliberately blocking money and grain.
This kind of behavior is not destructive at the moment, but over time, the cost of tens of thousands of troops will cause big problems.
By then, the attacking side may not be able to maintain the siege.
But with the start of these three ships, the issue of supply no longer needs to be considered.
Xu's fleet has also begun operations.
They have their own relationships in the surrounding areas.
Through these relationships, more merchants will bring supplies, including medicine, cloth, gunpowder and other military supplies.
These people can also be relied on to meet the supply, which is more reliable than official channels.
Fighting on his own land, the final supplies depended on these channels.
Wang Hong was quite dumbfounded looking at the food, meat and even fruits.
He finally felt a little more settled, at least the food for the past few days was available.
Yang Chengzu came from a distance with several ladies and said hello to Wang Hong, "Mr.
Chengzhai, why don't you go and take a look at that market?
It is about to be restored to use.
Several businessmen came over and decided to make deliveries there."
"As soon as the market opens, more businessmen will come."
The merchants who brought supplies wanted remuneration not in silver, but in goods such as silk and porcelain.
Since Tuen Mun was a free trade port before, many merchants traded here, and many such goods were stored on the island.
What the Portuguese transferred to the castle was gold, silver, grain and water, and they did not have time to dispose of these goods.
The officers and soldiers only relied on seizures, which was enough to pay the material rewards for a long time.
In addition, some merchants, through their connections with the Xu family's caravan, applied to the government to see if they could continue trading in Tuen Mun after transporting supplies.
The last sale organized by the government in Ningbo made many businessmen rich.
This time it broke through Tuenmen.
The businessmen hope to follow suit and continue to make money.
Many of these businessmen have methods.
Even the powerful maritime merchants in Guangdong cannot stop these people's business activities.
The once-quiet Tuen Mun Market became lively again.
Yang Kee's merchants, as Yazi, shuttled back and forth, introducing the goods seized by the government to the merchants.
There are not too many merchants coming, but many stalls have been reserved.

In addition to merchants from the Ming Dynasty, there are even merchants from Southeast Asian countries who come to trade.
According to intelligence feedback, more supplies will be transported soon.
The officers and soldiers will be surrounded here for two or three months without worrying about money, food and supplies.
There were even some businessmen who brought over women who were in the leather and meat business.
The taverns that were once empty had new owners, and people were already cleaning up the rooms and setting up tables and chairs in preparation for resuming business.
Several wind-stricken women were leaning against the door, laughing loudly at the men passing by, soliciting customers.
No one seemed to care about the rumble of artillery in the distance.
The entire Tuen Mun was returning to its pre-war state.
Looking at the market that was beginning to regain its vitality, Wang Hong hesitated.
"The trade on this island is actually not tolerated by the imperial court.
If we allow them to do this, we will inevitably be impeached by the officials in the future."
"Mr.
Chengzhai, those imperial envoys do not hold local posts, so they can easily use royal laws to impeach us, but we cannot use royal laws to destroy this island.
Even if we want to abolish them, we must find a new one for them.
In the current environment, it is unlikely that these merchants will go to Guangzhou to do business.
It is better to let them do business elsewhere.
They work under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.
At least they are willing to pay taxes.
Moreover, here, regardless of the imperial court's rules, whether you are a candidate or a scholar, you must pay according to the rules.
Otherwise, we are not allowed to come in and work in such a good environment.
Why are we?
If we don't maintain it and don't use some means, and just rely on Guangzhou's food supply, I'm afraid we will run out of food in a few days."
When Wang Hong heard this, his expression became a little more angry.
"I didn't expect that even though the imperial envoy was personally in charge, they still dared to use such small means.
If they were just old-fashioned, I'm afraid they would have done more extreme things.
The three armies are indispensable.
There is a fortified city opposite.
If we attack forcefully, the casualties will be too great.
If we want to siege the city, it will probably take several months to determine the winner.
The war is the most important thing.
This kind of extraordinary method has to be used.
At the worst, I will have to pay for it.
To get ahead, we must first eliminate this group of pirates.”
"Mr.
Chengzhai, although this castle is strong, it may not really last for a few months.
How about I make a bet with you?
I think this Yicheng will change hands in a short time."
Wang Hong knew that he had contact with a female envoy from Fo Langji.
Many people in the military camp knew about this matter, so it was not a secret.
However, as a veteran with considerable experience in leading troops, he did not believe that such a female messenger could change hands for such a strong fortress.
The enemy's several breakout actions proved that their will to resist is still there, and they will definitely persist in the castle.
This battle will not end too soon.
Yang Chengzu responded to this kind reminder with the same kindness, pointing to a restaurant on the roadside that had not yet been put into use, "Go in and sit down, and talk slowly if you have anything to say." ian:
