Chapter 81: I'm Dirty, So What?

Liu Hong's posthumous affairs are not beautiful, at least for an emperor, Liu Hong's aftermath can be said to be hasty, on the third day, Liu Wei was supported by He Jin and the ministers, ascended to the throne, and Taifu Yuan Kui and He Jin jointly assisted the government.

The court seems to have returned to a calm state, but now the people in power have become He Jin and Empress Dowager He, although Yuan Kui is nominally in charge of the government with He Jin, but in fact, Yuan Kui's right to speak is obviously not enough.

And what disgusted Yuan Shao and others the most was that they helped He Jin successfully put Liu Wei on the throne, but in the matter of exterminating the eunuchs, He Jin's attitude was ambiguous.

This is also the reason why many scholars are indignant, but indignation is indignation, He Jin now holds military power, and he is the uncle of today's son, and there is the queen mother who listens to the government, although the eunuchs are not as powerful as before, but there are still many friends, and the scholars can only continue to pinch their noses and follow He Jin in order to survive.

The new emperor succeeded to the throne, and the old era name naturally could not be used, and at He Jin's suggestion, the era name was changed from Zhongping to Guangxi.

For Chen Mo, this time He Jin promised to help him release Gao Shun, which is actually a good thing, but from the perspective of the entire scholar class, the scholars have no way to take charge of the government after all, and the government has transitioned from the hands of the previous eunuchs to the hands of He Jin, for the scholars, this is actually no difference.

But this is not Chen Mo's business, he has made the right chips in this team, although his status has not changed, but he is in the right direction, and he has the status of a scholar, and the road in the future will be much easier.

However, in the next few months, Chen Mo did not have a good time, and the imperial court seemed to have forgotten the existence of the Xiyuan New Army.

Moreover, these years seem to be more chaotic, the rebels under the banner of the Yellow Turban seem to be inexhaustible, and even the remnants of the Yellow Turban have appeared around Luoyang, Chen Mo began to take the initiative to ask for orders to eliminate the Yellow Turban thieves around Luoyang.

"According to the general's orders, the first evil has been punished, and after the remaining thieves handed over their weapons, a part of the seized materials were distributed to the people with the avatars and sent back to their hometowns." Zhong Yun took all the soldiers to Chen Mo's side to resume his life, this was already the seventh Yellow Turban Thief they had extinguished.

They are all bandits who are not in the climate, in the face of Chen Mo's team, there is not much room for resistance, and being found by Chen Mo basically means that the battle is over.

"The soldiers have worked hard, you keep half of the remaining supplies, and the rest have to be taken to restore your life." Chen Mo waved his hand and stood up a little bored, he wanted to use these yellow turban thieves to train his troops, so that those recruits who had been supplemented could see blood, but looking at those yellow turban thieves who were ragged and didn't even have any decent weapons, he couldn't do anything.

But there are a lot of seized materials, any group, since it has an organization, no matter how poor it looks, but there are still some family backgrounds, those who keep saying that they want to do it for everyone, which one is not for the rich and powerful

Chen Mo can be regarded as having seen through many bold words in this world, in the final analysis, it is just for a good word.

"Thank you, General" When the soldiers heard this, their originally tired expressions were suddenly shocked.

"General, this matter is illegal." Gao Shun followed Chen Mo's side, although he knew that it was useless, he still instinctively persuaded him.

"I know, I'll talk about it later." Chen Mo nodded, not wanting to talk more on this issue.

"If the general doesn't stop, please forgive the general for not being able to follow the general anymore," Gao Shun frowned.

"Okay, if I don't give a reason today, General Gao won't give up on this matter." Chen Mo sighed, looked at Gao Shun and said: "Do you know, how many days have our military salaries not been paid, this is not the county soldiers, this is the elite of the imperial court, the imperial court can't come up with money to support them, or it can also be said that they don't want to, now the general is winning over the hearts of the people, the ten permanent servants are trying to marry the general, no one cares about their life or death, they also have to support their families, what should I do?"

Gao Shun Chen was silent.

Chen Mo pointed to the side of the guide: "When I killed the Gepi thieves in Runan, the soldiers under my command fought the most bravely, went deep behind the enemy, and did all the things that were fatal, the general knows how much he was rewarded in the end."

Gao Shun shook his head, during that time, he was in prison, and he was only responsible for training troops on weekdays, and he was not qualified to lead troops to fight, so he naturally didn't know about this.

"Fifty bucks." Chen Mo said with a smile: "In Luoyang, a slightly better restaurant, a meal is gone, these generals in the army are better, there is at least a monthly salary, but the soldiers below have nothing, that, the old lady in the family is more than fifty, see it, if he dies on the battlefield, how can the old lady starve to death." There is that, I just had a son last year, he died, who raised the court for his son, no one cares, I know, the court has no money now, whether it is a general or a Shuo, and they want to pay their own money to raise the soldiers of the court, no one wants to, now the general is in charge of the government, these new troops are useless, so he is not willing to raise these people, but it was set up by the first emperor, no one dared to withdraw, just let it go, there are deserters in other battalions every day, but our battalion does not have it, do you think because I am handsome, or General Gao is good at governing the army is bullshit, Do you know how I've spent the past few months?"

Dian Wei, who was on the side of "General Gao", suddenly said in a sullen voice: "These days, the military salaries we are waiting for are all issued by the general, and his salary is not enough, and he will help people carve bamboo slips every day." ”

Since the new emperor ascended the throne, Chen Mo has been a little depressed in the past few months, and now Gao Shun took it away to threaten him, Chen Mo only felt a sullen breath in his chest, did not vomit unpleasantly, waved his hand, signaled Dian Wei to say more, glared at Gao Shun and said: "I don't want to be as honest as your General Gao, you go and ask, when I exterminated the Ge Pi thief, how much property I seized, I can move a liter of rice, a penny, but I can't let my soldiers go hungry and fight with me, people not only have to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, we can't eat enough, we are loyal to the monarch, loyal to the community, Loyal to the court, who has ever cared about their life or death"

"I, Chen Mo, am now a scholar." Chen Mo patted his chest, looked at Gao Shun and said: "My special mother still has to make a living by giving people bamboo papers, the concubines and maidservants in the family, I can't be reluctant to change clothes, among the scholars, which one is like this?"

"I don't say how noble I am, I'm not noble, I just want to be promoted, do this, just want these soldiers to follow me to win battles, help me accumulate meritorious deeds, I will be promoted and make a fortune, revitalize the family, but there is no money and no food, who will follow you, who will raise their family" Chen Mo looked at Gao Shun, the grievances and depression of the past few months, suddenly vented out, and his chest was a lot more happy, pointing at Gao Shun, and then pointing to the soldiers from the micro-business: "Let me tell you, don't think that no one knows these things, there is no impermeable wall in Luoyang City, why no one cares about them, I don't like this thing, and they need me to win the battle, I can quickly put down the rebellion and make the court more glorious, so even if someone can't get used to it, the general will protect me. ”

"The last general" Gao Shun didn't know what to say for a while, Chen Mo was wrong, it seemed to be right, but it did violate the law.

"It's very dirty, but I have a clear conscience, these belongings, you can see that I have touched half of them" Chen Mo looked at Gao Shun and said: "Gao Shun, I respect you as a person, I know that you are not used to seeing these, but this is the way of the world, loyalty and etiquette must first let us eat enough, General Gao is also from a famous family, I probably don't know what it feels like to be hungry." ”

Chen Mo rubbed his stomach and said with a smile: "I know, maybe in your opinion, Chen is already dirty, if you want to leave, I won't force you to stay, but I have a clear conscience, if you want to expose it to the court, feel free, you see if anyone will accept it"

"Do you dare" Dian Wei, who was covered in blood, took a step forward, Da Lang slowly pulled out the ring head knife, and Zhong Yun, Yu Sheng, and Bao Geng slowly surrounded them with their respective soldiers.

"What are you doing to rebel" Chen Mo glared and looked at the people around him: "Get out of the way for me." ”

Zhong Yun took a deep breath and saluted Gao Shun and said: "General Gao, when I first joined the new army, the last general admired the general the most, and now I admire the same general, but the last general admires General Chen even more."

After saying that, he left straight away.

The rest of the generals also bowed to Gao Shun and left silently.

"Put away the knife" Chen Mo glared at Da Lang, and Da Lang silently put away the knife and stood up.

"The Tao is different, don't conspire with each other, if General Gao feels that Chen Mo is unbearable, he will go by himself, and he will never leave difficulties." Chen Mo's heart is a lot easier, he does love Gao Shun's talent, but this kind of thing will only be more in the future, he has been avoiding Gao Shun because of this kind of thing, Chen Mo also feels tired, it is better for everyone to talk about it, and if they can continue together, it is naturally the best, but if Gao Shun is unwilling, Chen Mo will not force him to stay.

"The last general" Gao Shun was silent for a moment, then clasped his fists at Chen Mo and said, "Know your mistake." ”

Knowing his mistakes, not his guilt, recognized Chen Mo's approach, but he didn't feel that he was at fault, but he basically wouldn't leave.

"Just don't see it." Chen Mo nodded, continued to command the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, and then returned to Luoyang, although there were other bandits that had not been eliminated, but the money and grain allocated by the imperial court were only enough to fight here, unless the imperial court did not care about the money and grain he wanted to seize, otherwise the imperial court would not allocate money, and Chen Mo would not send troops.

After a long time, Chen Mo is also changing little by little towards those people he was most unaccustomed to, in fact, sometimes he is quite envious of Gao Shun.

When I returned to Luoyang, I handed over the token, and as soon as I returned to the barracks, I saw that the steward of Zang Mansion was already waiting there, and when I saw Chen Mo, I hurriedly greeted him and smiled: "See Childe"

"Don't be polite." Chen Mo asked Gao Shun to return to the camp with the soldiers and horses, looked at the steward and smiled: "But there is something at home."

"Exactly, Yuan Gong heard that the general returned triumphantly, and the special person sent an invitation, Yuanlong Gongzi and Gongzi were among the invitees, Yuanlong Gongzi calculated the time and asked him to wait here." The steward smiled.

"Yuan Gongyan invites you to go home first and ask someone to help me prepare for bathing, this body is dusty, it is inevitable to be rude to go." Chen Mo smiled.

"Don't worry, Childe, someone is already ready."

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll take care of some military affairs and leave."

"Whoa"
