Chapter 54: Simple Bribery
Eighty miles away, the fast horse also needs an hour, Yun Zheng looked at the sun slanting west, sighed, and settled down at home, asking Lu Qingqing to take care of the family, telling Yun Er that he is now the male owner of the family, and he has something to carry up, and finally helped the bacon dry his tears and only brought Han Niu and the monkey to prepare to join the army, and Cang'er They all stayed at home to watch the family.
took out three horses, and galloped to Dujiangyan without thinking about it......
Junhan is very strange, Wu Shengjun only arrived in Dujiangyan yesterday, and he is usually stationed in Zhijiang, what is the reason why this Shangguan went straight to Dujiangyan without asking?
Hearing Jun Han ask himself, Yun Zheng smiled bitterly, didn't answer, only roared in his heart, where could it be? The freshly baked infantry army is Yu Hou, and he doesn't fight, so he is naturally made to be a coolie, otherwise why not the horse army Du Yuhou?
I think too highly of myself, authority is Zhang Fangping's biggest reliance, as long as he is under his rule, there will always be a way to deal with himself, the so-called county order of breaking the family, the prefect of destroying the door is this meaning.
The war horse galloped on the dry land, and the military man once again wanted to ask Du Yuhou why he rode better than himself.
In the face of this chatter, Yun Zheng was speechless, the kung fu of the war horse galloping could still open his mouth to ask questions, regardless of the dust raised, and he didn't know where his curiosity came from.
Yun Zheng knew that the army of the Great Song Dynasty was very bad, but he didn't expect it to be so bad, what was the reason why the garrison did not set up a village? What is the reason why the east and the west are lying on the ground with their chests open?
What is the reason for not taking any precautions when you hear the sound of a war horse galloping? What the fuck is the army? Dirty, extremely dirty, lice can crawl up to the bearded face without feeling it. However, seeing the golden seal on everyone's face, Yun Zheng's dissatisfaction with the Zhao family dynasty was all vented.
However, the target is not the Zhao dynasty. He couldn't afford to provoke him, so he could only target these so-called sergeants.
"Assemble!" Yun Zheng shouted at the top of his voice, and after waiting for a while, he found that no one seemed to pay attention to him.
"Assemble" shouted again, and the sergeants who should have gone to bed were still sleeping, and the ones who should have been snoring didn't even mean to pause.
The chatter soldier leaned over and rubbed his hands and said, "Marquis Yu." If you can't do this, there are 673 of our foot soldiers, and these guys have never recognized only two things, one is money and the other is food! I haven't heard of military law for a long time. β
Yun Zheng groaned and squeezed out a sentence from his throat: "According to the establishment, shouldn't there be one thousand and one hundred sergeants under my command?" Why are there only 673 left? β
The chatter soldier smiled with a yellow tooth: "You are the general, that's right, but you still have ten lieutenants under you." There are three lieutenants in Jinyong, one in the main book, one in Chengjielang, plus the small three classes of Dianzhi, a total of sixteen people, as well as the generals and the personal soldiers you brought, all of us need to enter, so it is inevitable that we will eat some empty salaries. Those killers, as long as they don't rebel, just go with them on weekdays. The filial piety that the little ones give you is in the tent, and please smile at the Lord. β
Yun Zheng smiled, no longer angry with those soldiers, but dragged the chatter to the Minjiang River and said with a smile: "Tell me, if I need to make up the vacancy, we won't eat empty salary." What's the solution? β
The chatter soldier grinned and said: "Don't hide it from the general, there's no way, we are not three classes of regular soldiers, the real effect of the conquest operation is to praise the Japanese army, let's just have a good time, once the fight starts, just run faster." β
Yun Zheng threw a stone into the Minjiang River and said, "I know, it's all about money, but when you look at me, do you think I'm like a person who is short of money?" What Lao Tzu needs is meritorious, is a record of achievements, since he has become a military attachΓ©, my subordinates should be a group of soldiers, not a group of people called Huazi. Tell me, what is the way, the last thing you lack is money! β
The chatter soldier approached Yun Zheng's side and said carefully: "The villain understands, from the first glance of seeing the general, the villain understands that you don't lack that bit of soldier blood, you are the general, what you need is strong soldiers and military exploits, if you want to make up 1,100 soldiers, it is not difficult, as long as you let the small one go to other battalions to go around, your 1,100 soldiers are guaranteed to be together, but the food and salary need to be extra."
In addition, your subordinate generals also need to be taken care of, otherwise your face will not look good when there is trouble. β
Yun Zheng looked up to the sky and laughed for a while, slapped the words heavily and said to the soldiers: "If you sue you, as long as you find all my subordinates for me, if you don't want to be a soldier, you can go to my house to be a steward, and I won't lie to you, you go and ask Han Niu and Monkey, how much does the steward in the lord's house spend a month, and the few people who followed the lord to suppress bandits in Yuanshan back then, which one has a few hundred yuan of silver on hand, that is, the big girl in the family, and the monthly spending is not less than five yuan!" β
The chatter soldier gasped, he didn't believe Yun Zheng's words, he had seen it in the Yun family, the clothes worn by the servants in the family did not have patches, those maids still had hairpins in their hair, and a piece of jade pendant hanging from the waist of the lame housekeeper was dark and light flowing, warm as water, it was not a cheap plant, and I was afraid that I would not be able to take it down without a dozen guan.
Thinking that he could go to the house to be a steward, his heart was hot, if not for anything else, just for the meal he ate at the Yun family, he felt that it was very worthwhile, especially when he saw that the master's family and the servants and his own food were the same, this was to govern the family as a military camp, only the descendants of those famous generals would always maintain this style.
Thinking of this, he knelt down on one knee and said: "General, no, the head of the family, the little Peng Jiu is willing to serve the head of the family, and I only ask the head of the family to reward the villain with a hot meal." β
"Peng Jiu, you have thought clearly, although the food in the master's house is delicious, it is not delicious, the Yun family does not allow anyone to betray, once you enter the Yun family, unless I agree, I have to die in the Yun family!"
Yun Zheng said this sentence so violently that Peng Jiu did not allow any illusions.
Peng Jiu kowtowed again and said: "The little one is also an old man in the army, knowing that the military rule of law, the small family of seven will not be able to live, so he voluntarily enters the Yun family and asks the master of the family to be fulfilled!" β
Yun Zheng nodded, took out a silver ingot of three taels from his arms and threw it to Peng Jiudao: "Master is not a hungry soldier, he came out in a hurry, he didn't bring copper money, this money is your first month's share, use it to send your family to the Yun family, and Mrs. will naturally arrange it." As for gathering the soldiers, what are you going to do? β
Peng Jiuqiang couldn't resist the urge to put the silver in his mouth and bite it, carefully put it into his arms, and said with a smile: "Family master, in fact, this thing is very easy, you want soldiers, other generals don't want soldiers, many people can't get rid of it, as long as the small one and the familiar master book say, they will definitely get this bit of manpower, you don't know, our Wusheng army has more than 8,600 people." β
Yun Zheng patted Peng Jiu's shoulder and said with a smile: "I found that those people don't seem to have enough to eat, you go to other master books to buy food, don't let them suffer, just buy it at the market price." For newcomers, they always have to let the brothers have a full meal, so that they don't have a mess with Yun in vain. Let the monkey accompany you, and when choosing soldiers, remember to pick some honest and honest soldiers, and don't want a ruffian. β
"Those Shangguan ...... in our camp"
Halfway through Peng Jiu's words, he saw the gloomy expression on Yun Zheng's face, how could he, as an old fritter, not know what his master was planning. I'm afraid those people are going to fall on the frieze.
Seeing Peng Jiu and his acquaintance with a few brothers muttering for a while, those people immediately changed from lifeless to elated. Seeing that Peng Jiu kept taking out the ingot of silver to show off, Yun Zheng knew that his plan would work.
Since he arrived at the barracks, he found that the army was not in order, and the number of people was not even, Yun Zheng knew that Zhang Fangping was ready to clean himself up, it is estimated that he had to fight thirty kills first, the reasons are ready-made, eating empty salaries and slacking off the army, these two crimes are enough, and hitting dozens of military sticks is cheap for himself, and his own call will be worthless to Zhang Fangping, that guy wants to use himself, and wants to polish his edges and corners.
How could Yun Zheng give him such an opportunity, this night is his own opportunity, as long as he gathers enough people, and then makes the military look neat, how can he mix it up tomorrow morning, as for others are unlucky, Yun Zheng doesn't care at all, those officials and subordinates of his know that they will come, and they don't know who they are to greet and report, who do they think they are?
The camp tent where the officers lived was in a flat and shady place, Yun Zheng didn't intend to alarm them, and after walking around, he found that there were still courtesans singing wild tunes, and the prostitutes who appeared in the barracks were probably not high-end goods, Yun Zheng didn't bother, and asked Peng Jiu's brother to help him set up the camp tent by the river with the soldiers.
This move immediately aroused the onlookers of those sergeants, Yun Zheng ignored them, and just ordered the few people who could make him able to start preparing pots and stoves by the river, dozens of cauldrons lined up, and the rice brought by Peng Jiu was directly poured into the cauldron, and the military rations, even if he was by the river, he didn't bother to wash them, poured in a few buckets of water and began to steam rice.
The soldiers didn't understand what this young man was going to do, and they had just heard those people say that this was the new Du Yuhou, smelling the fragrance of rice, swallowing dryly, but they didn't dare to come forward.
It was already getting dark, and Yun Zheng shouted at the crowd, "What the hell are you going to eat just dry rice?" Immediately go and find wild vegetables, if you can't find it, you won't have anything to eat! Hearing that these meals were prepared for themselves, the group of people ran to the riverside to look for wild vegetables, and there were many things such as water celery on the riverside.
Han Niu grinned and laughed at those people, helping Yun Zheng to watch the fire, and after a while, someone found the wild vegetables, cleaned them and handed them to Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng took the knife and chopped it into a few sections and threw it into the pot of boiling water, seeing that the wild vegetables were almost there, he took out a large piece of bacon from the horse bag and cut it into the pot with his own knife, and the slices of meat fell into the pot like snowflakes, and the throats of those people stirred even more, this is the fucking broth!
