Zhu Yidao's rations are indeed not much. Three hundred people brought rations for four or five hundred people, but it was these small military rations that made the generals and soldiers who stayed behind in the camp speechless: After all, they are not your direct commanders, and it is good to be able to give you some food. What's more, it is stated that the disabled military households must be allowed to receive it first, and no one can raise any objections.

Before distributing the grain, Lao Zhu still made a speech as usual: "Although we don't have much food, this is definitely not charity!" This is a reward for the meritorious men of my Ming Dynasty! You shed your blood for Daming, this is what you deserve! I don't know what the local governor has done, but I just know that you meritorious men must not be allowed to go to war hungry! As long as I'm here for a day, I'm going to make sure you have something to eat! ”

The general couldn't help but have tears in his eyes. Bo Bai never had these actions, he only cared about his pale army, and he always used them as cannon fodder, calling and drinking every day, and not caring about those who starved to death and died in battle; Now Lao Zhu's behavior has deeply left an imprint in the hearts of these soldiers: maybe only by following such a general can he survive better and live like a better person!

After the distribution of military rations, most of the people still looked at those who had military rations with greedy eyes. Lao Zhu thought about it, gritted his teeth, and whispered to Jiang Fei, "How much silver do we still have?" "——At the beginning, he copied the silver treasury of Runing Mansion, and Wanli generously rewarded Lao Zhu with 100,000 taels of silver, but Lao Zhu never spent much.

"There are more than 90,000 taels! Adult, you won't be ......" Jiang Fei was really a little angry this time. Is it worth spending so much money for these soldiers who don't belong to you?

"Let's take out 10,000 taels first!" Lao Zhu was also distressed and dripping blood. He just thought that here in Bobai, there is an army that is not loyal to him, at least with some eyeliner, he may have a lot less trouble, and the few hundred brocade guards brought by Lao Zhu himself can be said to be unable to stir up even a little splash in these armies.

Jiang Fei struggled for a moment, maybe Lao Zhu had other intentions! He still instructed the people below to take out 10,000 taels of silver he brought, and several people came over carrying the silver taels.

The general watched a few people come over with a large door panel, and froze: After the military rations are distributed, what else do you have to do? It can't be a cure for one's own false words, right? If this brocade guard takes himself now, none of the following thousands of people will be of use: the military heart has been collected by others, what else can he do?

When the few people who carried the door panel pulled out the curtain, the hundreds of people in the front were dumbfounded: That's tens of thousands of taels of silver!

Lao Zhu cleared his throat and shouted at thousands of people: "The military rations have been distributed, but it is too little, these silvers are considered to be compensated to everyone on behalf of the emperor, two taels per person, or the old rule, the disabled military households will receive it first!" ”

Everyone was in an uproar!

How could anyone do such a big deal? Two taels of silver, in a place like Zhongwei, Ningxia, is enough for ordinary people to live for a year! This brocade guard is either stupid or has ulterior motives!

But the situation no longer allowed the general to think about anything, and after a short silence, everyone erupted in enthusiastic cheers!

Then everyone knelt on one knee, touched their chests with their right hands, and gave the most solemn military salute to Zhu Yidao!

The general gritted his teeth, struggled fiercely in his heart, and after thinking about it, he still felt that following this hundred households might be more promising than following Bobai, so he also knelt down on one knee: "The subordinate Ningxia Zhongwei Xicheng suppressed Bolian, see the Lord of the Hundred Households!" ”

Although the grade of Zhenfu is higher than that of 100 households, it is really the 100 households of Jinyiwei who are too valuable. If Bo Lian knew that Jiang Fei was still a thousand households, it was estimated that his eyeballs would fall off - how could a thousand households be so respectful to a hundred households!

Lao Zhu waved his hand: "Get up!" Don't thank me, it's what you deserve. When I get to Ningxia City, I'll go and meet the governor and ask you for an explanation! ”

This was not expected. It is said that this hundred households should be good to comfort everyone, and then pull everyone over, and then leave here. Unexpectedly, he chose to maintain his current position. This hundred households, there is really no common reason to do things!

After leaving a long distance, Lao Zhu was still silent without saying a word, and Jiang Fei couldn't help but ask him, "What are you still worried about?" The morale of the army is already ours, and it is impossible for Bolian to count on these soldiers to do anything to us. ”

"That's not what I'm worried about. If Ningxia's guards are in such a state...... My Ming border ......" Lao Zhu took a deep breath, "In case of a large-scale invasion by foreign enemies, the consequences will be unimaginable......"

Jiang Fei looked at Zhu Yidao strangely. This Jinyiwei Baihu is really not like Jinyiwei, but like a civil official who worries about the country and the people, these things, where can Jinyiwei think of doing them?

Lao Zhu ignored him, still immersed in his own thoughts. After years of recuperation, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have a lot better equipment, but the soldiers of this guard are ...... More and more decaying. I heard that Li Chengliang's Liaodong Iron Cavalry, Qi Jiguang's Qi family army can still be worthy of a war, and other troops are simply unwatchable. Wanli followed all the way before, and he also knew the current situation, but he couldn't do anything for a while.

Wanli years...... Lao Zhu suddenly remembered that the famous anti-Japanese aid in history seemed to have happened in the Wanli period! This is a great event that will go down in the ages! It's just that I don't know when it happened. Now that he has been sent far away to this barren mountain and wilderness, won't he be able to see this war with his own eyes?

No way! I have to find a way to tell Wanli that if I can witness this war, it will be worth dying!

"Newspaper—" A herald galloped over!

"My lord! Bobai has extinguished the fire! Now I am asking for credit from the governor Dang Xin and the political envoy Chen Cheng in Ningxia City! ”

"Oh?" Lao Zhu was stunned, this Bobai Cangtou Army is really powerful, just 3,000 people wiped out as many as 10,000 Huoluochi Coalition Army! It seems that the combat power is still very good!

Jiang Fei was also taken aback, he didn't expect Bo Bai's movements to be so fast, his combat effectiveness was so strong, and he had killed so many people in a short period of time and made great contributions.

Lao Zhu suddenly remembered a question: "The Cangtou army of Nabobai is all stationed outside Ningxia City?!" ”

"Yes! The governor is discussing with the envoys and the commanders how to reward them! ”

"Hurry up and let the party adults prepare! Let so many people be outside Ningxia City, if Bobai has any different intentions, Ningxia City will be finished! Lao Zhu's cold sweat came out of the ground. Dang Xin didn't know, but Lao Zhu knew how much food and how much silver Bo Bai had gotten over the years, if he didn't have any dissent, how could he do everything possible to do this?

As soon as Lao Zhu reminded him, Jiang Fei immediately reacted: "Hurry up and report to the party!" Prepare the guards of Ningxia City! Let's start from Zhongwei and go over to pick up! ”

Ningxia City Governor Yamen.

Chen Cheng kept blowing on the teacup in his hand with a cold face, Dang Xin was still slowly wiping the blue and white porcelain vase, and Li Yuan walked around anxiously: "Lord Governor, Bobai's military horses are still waiting outside the city!" Just waiting for the reward! This time, they must wait until all the military pay is in place before they leave! ”

"Then let them wait outside! Go and invite Junfeng Liu Dongchang over! Dang Xin doesn't seem to take this matter to heart at all. Li Yuan's least favorite person is him, no matter what happens, he always looks like he doesn't care about himself, and I don't know if he is sure or not. Liu Dongchang is the military leader of the Ningxia City Guard, and he has always been at odds with Dang Xin, for no other reason, Dang Xin also detained his military salary for a long time and refused to give it.

Liu Dong strode in with a huff: "My lords, how dangerous it is for the army of Nabobai to be stationed outside the city!" Why not let them go sooner rather than later? ”

Seeing this, Li Jian quietly retreated, he was going to reorganize the soldiers and horses just in case. Without waiting for Dang Xin to speak, he walked out quickly, and as soon as he got on the horse, he said in a deep voice to the captain who led the horse: "Bobai is at the north gate, let's go from the east gate!" ”

Dang Xin raised his head, and a gleam flashed in his eyes: "Liu Junfeng, you have to work hard this time, go and negotiate with Bo Bai, and tell him that there is no silver or two grains in the treasury." After this errand is done, the military salary for these two years will be doubled by the officer! ”

"You!" Liu Dong was speechless. This is obviously to let Liu Dongchang go to death, and if he goes to Bobai, he will kill him; If you don't go to Dang Xin, you can kill him openly. He was in a dilemma.

"Do you count?" Liu Dongchang has already decided.

"Liu Junfeng, how can you speak to the governor like this!" Chen Cheng slapped the table.

"This official has always counted when he speaks, he will give when he says he will give, and if he says he will not give, he will not give!" There was a hint of murder in Dang Xin's small eyes.

"Good! Wait, see how I retreat from the army of Bobai! Liu Dongchang turned his head and left, without the slightest hesitation.
