Chapter Eighty-Five: Barracks Rebellion
When Mu Tianxiang came to the barracks, he watched hundreds of thousands of troops gathered in the barracks, and the people everywhere were noisy, shouting all kinds of slogans, but in general, they were asking for the payment of military salaries, and the scene was very chaotic, and under the instigation of well-intentioned people, it was likely to turn into a mutiny, and the situation was very critical. Hao's 10,000 troops were only around, but in the face of such a big scene, they were a little overwhelmed for a while.
"What's going on?" Mu Tianxiang was very angry.
"I came to the barracks and started the handover, the roster said that there were 500,000 troops in Tianyu City, but I took a general look and found that even if it was counted as less, it was less than 200,000, so I asked the general who was now in charge to ask, but I didn't expect it to cause the current situation...... "Hao Jun said aggrievedly.
"This is drinking the blood of soldiers," Mu Tianxiang thought.
I knew that what I inherited was a mess, but I didn't expect it to be so rotten that the shortage of staff reached two-thirds, these people are really daring.
But Hao Jun's ability to deal with things is not good, this matter should be investigated secretly, slowly and slowly, and when he has conclusive evidence, he will deal with a few major generals, kill chickens and show monkeys, and deter a group of people. Through training, a group of people will be organized and divided, and this matter will not be such a passive situation.
But it's already like this, it's too late to say anything, and it must be dealt with quickly. Mu Tianxiang knew that this matter was definitely operated by someone, otherwise such a situation would never have been formed. Moreover, we must not retreat in handling this matter, otherwise there will be endless troubles in the future management of the barracks.
This group of people just bullied Mu Tianxiang when he first came, and Mu Tianxiang didn't dare to make a heavy hand, and gathered all the officers and soldiers to make trouble together, and they also had the heart of not being responsible for the public. Otherwise, there will be a mutiny, and it will not be easy.
These people eat the blood of soldiers so rampantly, it can be said that they are unscrupulous, it seems that the entire military camp is rotten, no wonder Zhuge Hongzhi is completely disappointed in this group of people.
Mu Tianxiang in contemplation thought of a lot.
"Mr. Mu, no, I'll take people and destroy them all!" Hao Jun said directly.
"Shut up!" Mu Tianxiang said: "Your problems will be dealt with, and you don't use your brains to do anything." ”
"What's wrong with me?" said Hao Jun, who didn't know the problem at all.
"Ma Xiaoke, what do you think of it?" Mu Tianxiang named Ma Xiaoke, the original commander of the three armies.
"This matter categorically cannot be delayed, nor can we retreat, but in the end, this is more than 100,000 people, and it is not appropriate to rashly adopt thunderous measures, it is likely to cause a large number of casualties, and those chaotic troops do not matter, but if our more than 10,000 people suffer too much loss, then they will not be able to draw it. Ma Xiaoke said.
"To say it is to say nothing. Hao Jun looked at Ma Xiaoke and sneered.
Li Muran is not here, if he is in the matter, it may be much easier, Mu Tianxiang looked at the group of generals below and had a headache.
"Mr. Pastor, if you can divide them, things will not be so difficult to deal with, although most of the people here are hopeless, but there are still some good ones, and those who make trouble may not necessarily be united, just temporary interests drive them together, if they can be divided, it will be easy to do. Ma Xiaoke said.
Mu Tianxiang's eyes lit up, and he thought of a solution.
"Hurry up and invite Elder Liu and Elder Long. Mu Tianxiang ordered his own soldiers.
Although the method is good, it also needs the support of strength, otherwise everything is delusional. At this time, the role of Dragon Dao and Liu Zongwei came.
"What kind of cultivation do those generals have?" asked Mu Tianxiang.
"The highest is the first level of the prefecture level, there are two or three. The rest of the people are also the appearance of the Xuan Rank, Intermediate to High Rank. Hao Jun, who already had some understanding, said.
"Got it. Mu Tianxiang nodded.
It is similar to Mu Tianxiang's, after all, it is only a military camp with 500,000 people, and it is almost the same to have two or three prefecture-level monks to lead it. Mu Tianxiang is really afraid that there is a master of Tianji, then Liu Zongwei and Long Dao will not be able to control the scene, and the fun will be great.
Long Dao and Liu Zongwei soon came.
Mu Tianxiang did not hesitate, and led everyone out of the big tent to the barracks.
At Mu Tianxiang's signal, Long Dao and Liu Zongwei released the breath of the heavenly pole. In an instant, the entire barracks were covered. The majesty of the heavens could not be ignored, and the original chaotic scene soon fell silent.
The people below were also shocked, things were not so expected. I thought it was just a small outsider, but I didn't expect it to be supported by a monk from Tianji. It seems that today's purpose will not be accomplished.
Several leading generals exchanged glances vaguely, and their hearts calmed down, although the monks of Tianji cannot be challenged, but they have more than 100,000 people, and there are many monks, and they are not afraid of Mu Tianxiang's hard coming, if they really tear their faces, in the face of more than 100,000 people, Tianji monks also have to think about it.
And Mu Tianxiang really dared to slaughter all these hundreds of thousands of people? I can't think of it, otherwise how can I explain to the eldest prince.
Mu Tianxiang saw everything in his eyes. But he didn't speak, and when the scene calmed down, he went to the point under the escort of Long Dao and Liu Zongwei.
"I am Mu Tianxiang. I don't know what the requirements are for everyone to gather here?" Mu Tianxiang shouted loudly.
"We want military salaries, Tianyu City owes us military salaries, and now the old city lord has run away with the money, we have no choice but to ask for it!" Under the instigation of someone with a heart, it was originally just a few people who shouted again, and it soon resounded throughout the entire military camp, after all, it is a fact that Tianyu City is in arrears of military salaries. It is a matter of course to be paid as a soldier, and you can make sense wherever you go.
"Tianyu City owes everyone's military salaries, this is a fact, I also brought a large amount of military salaries from the young master this time, and it is not a problem to make up the military salaries. Mu Tianxiang said loudly.
Hearing that there was a military pay, the troublemakers began to fall silent.
The troublesome general saw that the momentum was not right, and shouted loudly: "Then take it out and give it to everyone!"
These people don't believe in Mu Tianxiang and military salaries at all, after all, this is not a small amount, and it is impossible for the young master to allocate so much money to Mu Tianxiang, after all, the young master is not rich, and these people can't fight, but these gossip are very well-informed.
These people guessed correctly, Mu Tianxiang didn't have any military pay at all, but at this time, he didn't dare to show his cowardice at all, Mu Tianxiang said loudly: "Look at you, the military camp of 500,000 people, it would be good to have 200,000 now." I just paid the soldiers, how many can go to the soldiers?"
Mu Tianxiang's words caused a commotion in the barracks, after all, what Mu Tianxiang said was the truth.
The generals and backbones who made trouble saw that the development of things was different from what they imagined, and hurriedly glanced at the surrounding cronies.
But Mu Tianxiang didn't give them a chance at all, and said loudly: "Before the military salary is issued, I think it is necessary for us to find out these black sheep." But I'm new here, and I don't know who the black sheep is, and I don't want to know, but I know that you know very well who the black sheep are. Now I give you three hours, anyone who reports the black sheep, as long as the evidence is conclusive, can get one-third of the wealth of the person who is reported, if someone says, I have also deducted military pay before? It's okay, as long as you report two people, you will not be responsible for the past. I made a promise in front of so many people, and I don't think you're afraid of me breaking the contract, right? Remember, there are only three hours, and the opportunity is given to you, and it depends on whether you can grasp this opportunity to make a fortune. With so much wealth, let alone being a soldier, where in the world can't you go?" After Mu Tianxiang finished speaking, he led people to turn around and enter the big tent of the Chinese army, leaving Long Dao and Liu Zongwei to continue to deter these people.
An hour passed quickly, and when Hao Jun and the others began to feel uneasy, a person finally walked in and shouted loudly: "I report our commander for deducting military salaries!"
"Is there any evidence?" Mu Tianxiang was also shocked and asked.
"Yes, I am his own soldier, and this is the account book for which he withholds his salary. The visitor hurriedly took out an account book.
"Hao Jun, send someone to take it!" Mu Tianxiang shouted.
Soon, Hao Jun brought in a person under the identification of the person who came.
Mu Tianxiang didn't ask in detail, so he took the person to Dianjiangtai.
"My sister is married to the second son's personal guard, you can't do anything to me, otherwise the second son won't let you go. The millennarian shouted loudly.
"Kill!" Mu Tianxiang shouted, and Hao Jun directly killed the person who came at the Dianjiangtai.
The brain is really, since Mu Tianxiang has decided to help the eldest son, he is still afraid of the second son? Sooner or later, he will go to the opposite side, and Mu Tianxiang will still give the second son face? Stupid and can't even find a backstage, if you don't die, who will die!.
Mu Tianxiang picked up the thousand-year-old's storage bag, with Liu Zongwei's help, the small prohibition was nothing, opened the thousand-year-old's storage bag on the spot, and distributed one-third of the wealth inside to the whistleblower.
Mu Tianxiang's iron-blooded methods also frightened many people, although those who were interested were still inciting, but there were very few people who followed. After all, wealth is moving. A lot of people's eyes lit up.
Even those people wanted to make trouble, but they were weak, and they didn't dare under the deterrence of the two Heavenly Extreme Cultivators.
Since the matter has begun, it will be lively, there is an endless stream of people who report it, and Mu Tianxiang is also decisive and will not be soft. The funny thing is that there are many people who usually eat the blood of soldiers and find that there are fewer and fewer people who can report, so they have no choice but to report themselves. handed over two-thirds of the wealth. Mu Tianxiang also said that he would do it, and with a wave of his hand, he let it go.
"Who are those people in the northeast corner," Mu Tianxiang asked, stopping a whistleblower.
"That's Liao Huayu, General Liao's army," the whistleblower said.
"Why aren't they messy?" Mu Tianxiang had been observing for a long time, and the rest of the place was messy, but the team of nearly 20,000 people in the northeast corner had not been messed up from beginning to end, even if the report began, there was no chaos there.
"General Liao is usually a good person and never withholds military salaries. The whistleblower, who had just reported that he had escaped, blushed and said in a low voice.
It seems that there are honest people there, and the military camp in Tianyu City is not completely rotten. Mu Tianxiang nodded.
