Chapter 61 Military Pay
"Everybody's got it?"
Hearing this, Shi Hu was startled suddenly, and he was directly frightened into a cold sweat.
Although Bai Yuan said that he planned to support this Mo family's great son, if Chu Yang died so inexplicably, then there might be a big earthquake in the Surabaya officialdom!
The county guards and county lieutenants ostensibly perform their own duties, but in fact, the imperial court also has the meaning of separation of powers and mutual supervision.
If a county lieutenant dies in Surabaya, the county guard will not escape the involvement.
"Old Master Huang, you are ......"
Shi Hu walked behind Huang Lun, looking a little nervous.
"General Shi is not afraid, since the county guard believes in me Huang Lun, how can the old man be such a person who doesn't know the severity?"
Huang Lun patted Shi Hu's shoulder and said in a low voice:
"Just look at it, the old man is sure to call him Chu Yang to survive and not to die!"
Shi Hu nodded suspiciously.
This sentence sounds very uplifting, but what kind of character Chu Yang is, he has already understood it.
Now, it's up to this priest from the Jixia School Palace to have such skills.
……
Early in the morning, Chu Yang came to the Surabaya camp with his entourage.
As soon as they arrived, they were surrounded by a large group of soldiers.
The soldiers looked at their faces bitterly one by one, and a few wanted to make a mistake, but after seeing Fan Xu, they stopped puffing up again.
"My lord, when will we be able to pay off! A lot of people in the family are counting on these things to survive! ”
"Yes, my lord, you are a well-known wealthy merchant in Surabaya, and these salaries are not worth mentioning in your eyes, as long as you can leak some from your fingers for everyone, it will be enough for us to live for a long time."
"My lord, everyone has worked hard to become a soldier, to be honest, just to ask for a livelihood, you can't see death without help!"
Several captain-level soldiers were arched to the front by everyone, and they said what was in their hearts.
Chu Yang noticed that in the crowd, there were several guys with thieves' eyebrows and rats' eyes, who were staring at each other and adding fuel to the fire.
"Come on, take those few down for me!"
As soon as Chu Yang gave the order, someone tied up these instigators.
"Dare to ask my lord, what crime have we committed, and you want to treat us like this!"
"Yes, even if we are not the personal soldiers in your mansion, but we are also soldiers of the imperial court, you can't do this to us!"
"Brothers, you see, this newly appointed county lieutenant doesn't take us seriously at all, he can treat us like this today, and he can do the same tomorrow with you, such a person, do you still want to follow us with all your heart!"
As soon as these men finished speaking, the other soldiers began to whisper.
At the beginning, as Fan Xu defeated Shi Hu's pro-army, these people were also full of longing, hoping that under Chu Yang's training, they could also become such warriors.
It's just a pity that after Fan Xu became a deputy general, although there were some new ideas in what he taught, there was no essential difference from the previous training, and the gap was even greater compared with Fan Xu's team that survived in the wild.
Over time, there was a saying in the army that this Chu County Lieutenant looked down on these soldiers in the Surabaya battalion at all, except for his own family.
On weekdays, everyone was just afraid of Chu Yang's prestige and Fan Xu's strictness, and they didn't dare to show it.
But now, with the arrest of these "brothers", they have all been aroused, and their eyes towards Chu Yang have become angry.
"Smack!"
Chu Yang glanced at everyone, took out a stack of papers from his arms, threw it to Fan Xu, and snorted.
Fan Xu immediately read it out with understanding.
"Li Erhu, Shi Hu's old department, has been following Shi Hu for six years, asked for leave to leave the camp the night before yesterday, the ostensible excuse was to see a doctor and grab medicine, but in fact he slipped to the county guard mansion and had a private meeting with Shi Hu."
"Zhang Yu, an old man from the county guard, once served as the county guard, and was personally arranged by Bai Yuan to enter the army three years ago, with the purpose of monitoring Shi Hu and collecting the thoughts of the soldiers, and six colleagues were sentenced to beheading because of their reports."
"Zhou He, a slave of the county guard, just mixed into the army three days ago, the purpose is to incite the soldiers to make trouble, and to guard the county Bai Yuan's secret disguise!"
Fan Xu read out the true identities and resumes of several people in public, and in the past few days, in addition to trying to find ways to urge food and wages, he also secretly sent team members to secretly investigate the every move of the sergeants.
Soon, the details of these people were clearly checked by the intelligence team that has undergone special forces training.
When everyone present heard this, they were all stupid.
They never thought that these comrades who used to laugh and play were actually the fine works left by Shi Hu and the county guard!
"If Lieutenant Chu wants to get rid of us, he will do it directly, why bother with others!"
"That's right, if the husband dies, he will die, and a few of us just can't get used to the unfairness in this army, and we want to find justice for everyone, what a crime!"
"Hello everyone, don't be deceived by this surnamed Chu, he just wants to take a few of us and force you to settle down, in the end, he can't solve the problem of military salaries at all, I think everyone might as well find another way!"
"You guys can talk nonsense!"
Listening to these people chattering crookedly, Fan Hao on the side was already impatient, and went up directly with three punches and two kicks, and beat these people to the point of bleeding.
Chu Yang glanced at these people lightly, feeling a little sad.
"Where is the military judge!"
Chu Yang snorted coldly, and saw a team of soldiers in special clothes trotting towards this side.
"Dare to ask the lieutenant what he commands?" The middle-aged man in the lead said respectfully.
"What is the crime of making trouble in public and inciting soldiers to mutiny?"
"According to the law, you should be beheaded, and the three tribes will be killed!" The middle-aged man said categorically.
"What!"
Hearing the words of the military judge, all of them collapsed on the ground with pale faces, and they no longer had the swaggering appearance they had before.
"You...... You can't kill us, or the county guard won't let you go!" ”
"Yes, Bai County Shou is the real head of Surabaya County, you are a county lieutenant in Chuyang, why should you deal with us!"
"Shut up, you two, idiot! Don't keep your voice shut yet! ”
The house slave from the county guard mansion couldn't help but be angry when he saw that his two pig teammates were leaking all of a sudden.
At this time, the soldiers on the side, who were originally half-convinced, completely understood the matter, and looked at the three people with sympathy but resentment.
In this world, there is no one more hated than a traitor who informes.
Fortunately, Lieutenant Chu pointed it out in time, otherwise they would probably be pulled into the water by these guys.
Seeing the guilt gradually rising on everyone's faces, Chu Yang nodded and said:
"This matter has nothing to do with everyone, you don't have to worry, since Chu Mou dared to come over today, it was naturally to solve the matter of food and salary, it doesn't matter if his county guard doesn't pay food, Chu is giving you some good things here, and at the same time, I will also explain this matter to Your Majesty in the above letter, and ask for justice for everyone!"
As he spoke, Chu Yang waved his hand, and saw a large group of fat-headed and big-eared guys being driven into the army from outside.
Looking at these humming creatures, the soldiers were shocked.
"What the hell is going on!"
