Chapter 3: Boring Conversation
When sending Cao Rong away, Yun Zheng looked up to the sky and sighed, how can there be a fool in this world? As long as you can bring them supreme glory, they will slowly pull you to the side of Jiangmen, and finally completely assimilate you.
The reason why Di Qing is looked down upon by everyone is because his background is too low, his luck is too good, and he seems to have a bit of stubbornness, so the official to the privy deputy is still very difficult in the capital.
Cao Rong told Yun Zheng about Di Qing as a joke, which was actually a silent warning, and those who didn't mix with them would be killed by the civil officials sooner or later.
This is not a joke, how Di Qing died Yun Zheng knows clearly, and dies of fear! An invincible commander on the battlefield was stunned and died of fear by those civilian officials, this is simply a big joke, those people's vicious thoughts are different from the rain of guns and arrows on the battlefield, it really makes people feel cold from the cracks in their bones.
They were really thoughtful, Cao Rong even began to help Yun Zheng touch the house in the capital, and asked Yun Zheng if he wanted to get Yun Er, Su Shi and Su Xun to the Royal Academy, they have a way......
Walking in the barracks, listening to the snoring of those soldiers one after another, Yun Zheng calmed down a lot, someone plans to share the credit, whose credit is it? It is undoubtedly the credit of these soldiers who are sleeping a lot, if these people know that their generals are wondering whether to share their credit with those gentlemen, I don't know if they will still be able to sleep.
There was a bangzi sound from above the thick fight, which was to report safety, and the sound of bangzi came far away in the quiet barracks, which seemed even more quiet.
A team of sergeants armed with spears patrolled the camp with neat steps under the leadership of the military leader, and when they saw Yun Zheng, they didn't stop, and they beat their chests as a greeting, and walked towards the rear camp with their boots in their hands.
Peng Jiu rode across a crooked tree and kept drinking, and when he saw Yun Zheng coming, he greeted him and planned to jump down from the tree. Yun Zheng stopped his behavior, stepped over the tree himself, took Peng Jiu's wine gourd and took a big sip, I don't know why I just wanted to drink tonight. My heart is very blocked.
Peng Jiu didn't ask the general why he didn't sleep, the man's family, if there is something sad, just drink some wine. Yun Zheng didn't hold back and whispered to Peng Jiu about it.
Peng Jiu sneered and stuffed the wine gourd into Yun Zheng's hand and said: "Okay, my lord, what is this matter, there were more such things in the past, and the credit of Wu Shengjun's farm work will be snatched away, so that there is a big joke that our general is the general who harvests 800 mu of rice in one day, what is the result, people are still promoted and rich......"
"Promoted to a fart officer. Didn't you drag you to the back of the horse and drag you to death? ”
"You and the dead ghost Wen Hanchen are not the only ones who have served in the lowly position, there are at least two in front of them, and the lowly officials can't even remember their names now, they only remember that he harvested 800 acres of rice alone."
Peng Jiu took a sip of wine and frowned and said, "The things that you can't get by with here are actually nothing in the eyes of the brothers. Do you remember the names of the brothers who died in battle, you know how to go to their graves to pour a glass of wine, burn some yellow paper, go to a widow's house to give some rice and food, and beat a few disobedient children.
You have not owed money to your brothers, nor have you spoken without counting. Look at it, this time in Shuzhong's great suppression of bandits, our Wusheng army killed more than 200 brothers, but do you hear any complaints?
No, the dead are grateful to you, and fifteen times the silver burned is about as heavy as the one who died in battle. This money is enough for their family to buy a cow, as long as Wu Shengjun does not collapse, sending the old man away, raising the child is not a big problem, not to mention that as long as Wu Shengjun has a reward. Whoever it was, those women had money, and although it was less, it was a lot.
Wu Shengjun is a poor life, born with no food and clothing, so life is not valuable, before he died and threw it into the big pit in this life, even if he was mixed up, until you came, he finally set a price for the lives of the brothers - fifteen guan, fifteen guan out of ten, this money is enough for a poor man to work hard.
What's the use of us getting credit? I don't know if you've thought about it? We don't have land, and the exemption from taxes has nothing to do with us, exemption from labor? We're fucking doing labor every day. Promotion? Hahaha, this is a joke, the humble position is an official in your eyes, but in the eyes of a master bookkeeper, he is just a thief with an army.
Therefore, Lord, once there is that kind of thing that exchanging merit for money, you must not miss it, brothers are now living with money, only our martial arts army has become powerful and incomparable, and our children have read, these merits can be of real use, do not hesitate, I Peng Jiu put my words here, if there is a brother in the future who thinks you have done something wrong, you can cut off my Peng Jiu's head. ”
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "There is always a feeling that you have done something wrong. ”
"Don't be sorry, if you don't do it, you will be sorry, the credit of the Xiang army is actually a piece of fat, if you don't sell it, we won't get anything, and when the time comes, it will be Chengdu empty-handed, and the brothers will scold the mother."
Peng Jiu hurriedly nailed the Lord's heel to death, he couldn't hope for this kind of thing, how could he let it go......
The trusted Prime Minister Pang Ji did not rest, took the document and looked at it again, Han Qi, the governor of the political council, sat down beside him, looked through the documents for a long time, and then closed the document and asked Han Qi: "Zhigui, what is the origin of this Wusheng army, how can they ensure that they have so many people to fight in Sichuan." Speaking of this, he flipped through the documents and said: "Zhang Fangping, Liu Yucheng is just that, how to Bao Zheng, Fu Bi is also involved, the most incomprehensible thing for the old man is that the gate is also the word of the people, is a box army really better than the forbidden army?" ”
Han Qi didn't even stop the pen in his hand, and said lazily: "Who knows, I have always advocated that seeing is believing and hearing is false, but I still believe in Bao Zheng and Fu Bi's vision, plus Zhang Fangping is not a mediocre talent, and his ability to guarantee shows that this army does have something extraordinary." ”
Pang Ji said with a smile: "The old man also thinks so, but this young general actually asks for absolute autonomy, which means that he is ready not to obey Di Qing's generals and is not subject to Di Qing's jurisdiction, which is nonsense." Why is he so arrogant? ”
After hearing this, Han Qi smiled, then took a stack of documents from his desk and put them on Pang Ji's table, patted the documents, and said, "This is people's confidence." ”
Pang Ji opened a document with a smile and read it quietly: ", there are Mianzhou, Hanzhou, Pengzhou, and Jiange...... So much? Could it be that Shuzhong has been carrying out a large-scale crackdown on bandits recently? And they all succeeded, ready to repay the merit? Is it conclusive? What does this have to do with that amazing young man? ”
Han Qi said with a smile: "The evidence of the people is conclusive, and the heads of those bandit leaders have also been sent over, and they should be asked to be inspected by Kaifeng Mansion, I heard that the bandits in Shuzhong are now extinct, and the merchants can go on the road unimpeded, these information can be confirmed, and the officials in Shuzhong have not dared to deceive the officials like this." ”
Taking advantage of Han Qi's speech, Pang Ji had already discovered the trickiness in it, that is, these state capital documents were written in inconspicuous corners with nonsense such as Wu Shengjun's help, and if you didn't look carefully, they would almost be missed.
"These bandits were all exterminated by Wu Shengjun in half a year?" Pang Ji raised his head in surprise, since Nong Zhigao's rebellion, he took the position of prime minister instead of Chen Zhizhong, and said that he knew that if he still used the good old man Chen Zhizhong at this time, it would be disrespectful to the Great Song Dynasty, so the old and spicy Pang Ji sat in this position.
It's all bad news these days, and I've finally heard something that makes him a little happier.
Han Qi nodded and said: "The Secret Spy Division and Liu Yucheng have confirmed this, Zhang Fangping is not a person who is open-mouthed, he also said so, it is naturally true." ”
Pang Ji flipped through the documents on his desk again and said, "Why don't you see Wu Shengjun's report?" ”
Han Qi said casually: "He sold all these credits for money, so naturally he won't report it." ”
"Nonsense, whose credit should be whose merit is whose merit is, the most taboo in the army is to conceal merit and not report it, doesn't he know the way to unify the army?" Pang Ji is also an expert in martial arts with literature, so he naturally knows what the end is if he conceals his merits and does not report them.
"It is said that the sergeants are taking money according to the head, and there is a lot of money, how can the sergeant be dissatisfied, I used to worry that he would not be able to feed more than 40,000 people, now it seems, my heart is in vain, he clearly has a plan, the day he received the military position, he began to train the army, and when the army has a certain combat power, he will take it out to fight with the bandits, to fight the war, and also train the soldiers, and finally achieve the goal of strengthening the army, for this young man, I have nothing to say, and was used by others once, As soon as he became the governor, more than 3,000 yuan was blackmailed away. ”
Hearing what Han Qi said interestingly, Pang Ji's tightly knit brows also relaxed, since the local government has already discussed it, there is no need for him to do much.
Due to the dense war in the south, Pang Ji and Han Qi both stayed in the palace and were ready to wait for the emperor's summons at any time, just after dealing with official business, Han Qi ordered the servant to bring in a set of tea sets, after boiling water, he brewed two cups of tea, one was given to Pang Ji, and he held a cup, and it was really good to have a cup of hot tea to drink in the cold night of spring in Kaifeng City.
"This is the new tea that Zhang Fangping brought over after he deceived me, I heard that it was fried, I tasted it twice, and it was really good."
"If it weren't for the chaos in the south, you and I wouldn't have to work so hard."
"Why should the Duke of Alcohol tell lies in front of the Ming people, Nong Zhigao's soldiers are old, if you don't want to annihilate the whole army, the only way to return to the army, as long as Di Qing goes to completely uproot his lair and behead those who are thieves, the south will be decided, and that little bastard in Shu plans to take the opportunity to take credit, is the Alcohol Guild turning a blind eye?" Han Qi rolled his eyes and said.
ps:
In the second chapter, I will continue, I don't know if there is a guaranteed monthly pass in the hands of the brothers.
