please make me king

Chapter 1263 Value

"It's really ungrateful, obsessed with money, and has no sense of shame!" Wang Shiren, the general of Datong, stood on the tower, and shouted loudly at the three people who were tied up by five flowers.

"You don't care about anything just for a few catties of food."

"To disregard the righteousness of the state from above is disloyal; to disregard the lives of elders and elders is to disregard filial piety; to disregard wives and children to the left is inhumane; to disregard superior officials and colleagues to the right is unrighteous. "

"Such an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person, what kind of face does he have to live in the world!"

It turned out that on that day Wang Shiren listened to Zhu Xieyuan's suggestion and really went to count the number of people, and found that the whole army was missing [-] people, and he was immediately furious.

Therefore, he sent a sentry to ambush outside the city, preparing to capture these "shameless people" one by one, and kill them as an example to others.

As a result, there was still no movement until dawn the next day.

Wang Shiren, who slept until dawn, remembered this, and sent his servants to investigate.

After a long time, those dozens of servants managed to rush back, and brought back three people.

They came back to report: "I searched from the east of the city to the west of the city, and from the south of the city to the north of the city, but I didn't see a single trace."

"I was about to turn around when I happened to meet three or five people sneaking around."

"I was about to go up to ask questions, but I didn't expect them to run away when they saw us. I went up to chase for a long time, and finally caught these three people. After asking, I found out that the sentry had already gone to surrender to the thieves. .Now they want to surrender to the bandits, so we kidnapped these three people and reported them to the commander-in-chief!"

So, this is the beginning of the scene.

Not to mention how angry Wang Shiren, the general soldier of Datong, was, but also said that the three of them saw that they had fallen into Wang Shiren's hands, and knew that they would die, so they couldn't help but retorted: "As an official of the imperial court, you have received the grace of the country."

"It's disloyal to lie to superiors and subordinates, to embezzle military pay and food; to break the laws of the country, to ruin family laws, to humiliate the ancestors, is to be unfilial; to drink the blood of soldiers, to bully soldiers, to be cruel internally and externally, is to be inhumane; to only enter, not to exit When you recruit soldiers, you say all the good things, and when you leave the camp, you do all the bad things, it is unrighteous!"

"Such an unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person, what face does he have to show off his might!"

"Zhuzi, how dare you be rude!" Wang Shiren was furious when he heard the words, and shouted sharply, "Let's cut off his tongue and smash his teeth, let's see if he dares to talk back!"

"You dog thief, if you kill me today, how can you know that he won't kill you tomorrow! I'll wait for you on the Naihe Bridge and see what will happen to you!" Seeing that this man was so cruel, the soldier didn't beg for mercy. Just yelled.

Just scolded a few words, someone grabbed his tongue and cut him off.

Afterwards, someone pried open his mouth again, smashing all his teeth, and he couldn't even speak at once, he could only yell "Woooo".

"This is what happens to thieves! Come on, put them at the gate of the city to warn offenders!" Datong General Soldier Wang Shiren swept around coldly.

Little did they know that most of the soldiers had their eyebrows lowered and their eyes flickering.

"Absurd, absurd!" Just as Wang Shiren, the commander-in-chief of Datong, was showing his might, Zhu Xieyuan of the Zuozhu Kingdom had already been blown bearded and stared at by his arrogance.

"Since these three are thieves, they can be dealt with by military law!"

"As for the other soldiers, who came all the way to help me in Taiyuan, how can they be dismissed with empty words?"

"Today, the old man is in charge. If the food and wages are not enough to buy a stone, the old man is in charge to make up for the shortage. We must not let the soldiers feel cold!"

As soon as Zhu Xieyuan's words came out, everyone who had been demoralized couldn't help cheering.

It turns out that although the "nine borders" of Ming Dynasty are all important towns, they are also prioritized.

Now the Tartars are prospering in eastern Liaodong, and the two towns of Ji and Liao are the most important in the world, so they gather elite soldiers and generals, and their salaries range from two to three taels, far exceeding those of other towns.

Yansui Town, which was originally regarded as the most miserable place, was in arrears of payment for two and a half years, and the sergeant could not make a living.

They went on to launch rebellions one after another, so that it led to a massive peasant uprising during the Tianqi and Chongzhen years.

In order to extinguish this force, the Ming court had to rely on Yulin Jiangmen and other forces to distribute food and train soldiers and horses. At one time, the "Zijinliang", "Chuangwang", and "Chuangjiang" had nowhere to stand.

Only the three towns in the west of Xuanda Mountain have no worries of Tartars in the east and bandits in the west, so the food, wages and treatment are always lower than those of Jiliao and the three sides.

In the past, the most elite of the three sides, Yulin Town could still be subdued by Zhang Shun's monthly salary and food, let alone the Xuanda Frontier Army?

His family knew his own family affairs, so of course Zhu Xieyuan of the Zuozhu Kingdom would not be as childish as Wang Shiren, the commander-in-chief of Datong.

Therefore, this is why he promised food and salary on the spot to offset the price of the rebel army.

To be honest, although the credibility of the Ming court was almost completely bankrupt, there were still many people who foolishly believed Zhu Xieyuan's one-sided words.

Therefore, as soon as he said these words, the morale of the army immediately stabilized a lot.

However, Wang Shiren, the general of Datong, couldn't sit still when he heard the words, he couldn't help but stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Now we have more than ten thousand troops under our command, and the monthly salary is one shi, so we have to make up ten thousand shi of food and grass every month."

"Nowadays, there is not much food in Taiyuan City. How can we sustain it in the long run?"

"I don't know why, I still use it; you teach me?" Zhu Xieyuan laughed angrily when he heard the words.

"If it wasn't for you tossing around and ruining the morale of the army, why did the old man make such a bad plan?"

"But you don't have to worry too much about the food and salary."

"It only takes half a month, and Governor Zhang Fengyi will definitely come to help. At that time, it is still unknown who will win the deer, so why worry about food and salary?"

Wang Shiren couldn't help but suddenly realized when he heard the words, and immediately cast his eyes on the five bodies admired by Zhu Xieyuan of Zuozhu Kingdom.

High, it is high!

If this battle is defeated, whether he can save his wealth or life, or two things, how can he care about the food and salary?
If the officers and soldiers can break the "shun thieves", the mountains of food and grass outside the city will naturally belong to the officers and soldiers, and there will be no gap in food and pay.

Oh, no, if the officers and soldiers win, the so-called "one stone of monthly salary" is naturally "just coaxing it", how to count?

Not to mention what Zhu Xieyuan and Wang Shiren's plans are, let's say that Zhang Shun and others are still digging camps and building granaries in full swing.

Suddenly Ji Longfeng rushed over and reported to Qianqian: "Your Highness, Mr. Song and General Sun are back, and they brought back a cavalry army."

"Oh? Hurry up, please... No, just follow me to meet him!" Zhang Shun just changed his mind halfway through speaking.

"Yes, the last general will take orders!" Ji Longfeng remained calm, but in fact, he longed to give himself two slaps.

It turned out that when Song Xiance invited him to go with him, he declined this person for the sake of "being the first to ascend".

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiang, the guard of Taiyuan County, was careless and captured by the rebels. Naturally, Ji Longfeng lost the chance to ascend first.

On the contrary, Wukong followed Song Xiance for a while, and finally persuaded a cavalry army to surrender. How can Ji Longfeng not regret and blame himself?
