Chapter 296: Jiangzhou Governor Zuo Guangping
Jiangzhou, Pingnan County, Weifu.
On the school ground, Luo Xuan sat on the podium, surrounded by Pingnan Weifu guards sitting on the ground.
Dong Ning and Wang Si also sat on the ground, on the general's platform, listlessly looking at the black pressure guards below.
Luo Xuan was full of energy, looked at a corner, and said:
"Erdan, your family is poor, so you want to come to the army to improve your situation, but have you thought about it, if the Jiangzhou Governor's Mansion orders you to commit treason, and the imperial army comes to fight, Pingnan will become the front line, can you still keep your home?"
Luo Xuan has been chatting with the guards here for five or six days, and he basically controls this place, and all the captains of the guards have been taken down, leaving him with complete control of the Pingnan Guards.
Erdan couldn't believe it: "How is it possible, the governor is the governor appointed by the imperial court, how can he be treasonous, such a good official is not appropriate, is it not a loss of mind." ”
The surrounding guards were gossiping, and they all thought that Zuo Guangping had lost his mind.
Luo Xuan stretched out his hand to press it, the venue was quiet, Luo Xuan took a booklet from the guards behind him and unfolded it for everyone to see.
"This is the military salary allocated by the imperial court to the Jiangzhou guards over the years, and each person has thirteen taels of silver per year, all of which are paid in full and have never been in arrears."
"Come, big black man, tell me, how much money have you paid each year for the past three years?"
Luo Xuan asked as he pointed at one of the guards in the audience.
The big black man who was named touched his head, and stood up with a smile: "I sent three and a half the year before last, two taels last year, and only one or two this year." ”
Luo Xuan ordered a few more people, except for a few gang leaders, most of them were about the same as Da Heizi, and the military salary was deducted to the point that it was not even a fraction of a penny.
Finally, a guard stood up and pointed to the booklet in Luo Xuan's hand and asked.
"General, is the booklet in your hand real?"
"That's right, general, since the imperial court has paid it all, where did the rest of our military salaries go?"
The guards, who had been living a tight life, all asked.
Luo Xuan stood up and raised his voice a lot higher: "That's a good question, where did all these military salaries go?" ”
"Pull it out."
Luo Xuan gave an order, and the original lieutenants and lieutenants were all pulled out, tied up, and brought to the platform.
"Tell me, where has all the money been withheld?"
Luo Xuan stood in front of several lieutenants and asked in a cold voice.
Luo Wencai, the former lieutenant, said in a hoarse voice: "What is there to say, but it was embezzled by the big shots, and the military salary came to me, only four taels per person, and the salary of these four taels was still I desperately made money, begging grandpa to sue grandma, and I begged for it." ”
"I, Luo Wencai, are right for you, I will basically send as much as I want, if I can't take it, I Luo Wencai can't help it, the court gave it to the Governor's Mansion, and the Governor's Mansion refused to give it to me, what can I do!"
Luo Wencai looked indignant.
The lieutenants next to him also colluded in advance and shouted.
"He Zuo Guangping is not a thing, he deducted the silver and didn't send it, what can we do."
"Zuo Guangping is greedy for your money, and our military salary has also been deducted."
"What kind of life Lao Tzu lives on weekdays, you grandsons don't know."
Luo Xuan waved his hand, several guards came up and released the lieutenant and lieutenant, Luo Xuan stood in front of the general platform and said loudly.
"Brothers, your money, grain, and silver have all been withheld by Zuo Guangpingke, the governor of Jiangzhou."
"I came this time to follow the order of the king of Anguo County, gather you, and prepare to take Zuo Guangping."
"The military salary and silver, as long as you take Zuo Guangping, you can take it out from his governor's mansion."
The guards in the audience responded violently, and they were all shouting that they wanted to fight with General Luo to Jiangzhou, take Zuo Guangping, and divide the governor's mansion equally.
Luo Xuan stretched out his hand and pressed down, and the school field suddenly became quiet, and Luo Xuan opened his mouth and commanded.
"Okay, since everyone has this in mind, then I'll give the order. From today onwards, everyone will begin to train according to the new tactics, and when the training of the battle formation is mature, we will gather the guards of Wangjiang, Shangshan, Wuling, and Yueshan counties to kill Shangjiangzhou and quell the rebellion. ”
After Luo Xuan finished speaking, he turned to Luo Wencai and a few lieutenants: "The next task will be handed over to Lieutenant Luo, cooperate with the people I brought, and train military affairs, can you do it?" ”
Luo Wencai looked excited: "General Luo rest assured, I promise to complete the task." ”
After the training of the Pingnan Guards, Luo Xuan took Dong Ning and Wang Si and a group of people to go out, and asked the two of them.
"How about it, are you sure that you will lead the army alone and take down Shangshan, Wangjiang, and Wuling?"
Dong Ning glanced at Wang Si, Wang Si glanced at Dong Ning again, but he didn't speak.
Luo Xuan couldn't help but scolded: "It's the gentlemen, no, I don't dare to say anything, it's in vain that the prince is so optimistic about the two of you, he can't even take the two county guards, and he lives up to the trust of the prince." ”
Wang Si's head was full of blood, and he patted his chest and shouted: "General Luo, don't worry, I will go to Wangjiang and promise to take Wangjiang Mansion." ”
Dong Ning smiled: "General Luo, we don't talk darkly, are you and Luo Wencai related?" The prince said, you have been dragged in Pingnan, Pingnan has been taken, you should be able to continue to the next county's Weifu. ”
Luo Xuan patted Dong Ning on the shoulder: "Those who can be favored by the prince are not simple guys." ”
"Okay, I'll tell you both about my mission."
"Shangshan is now the world of the Tang Army, do you know?"
Dong Ning and the others were stunned when they heard this, their faces were full of incredulity, how did Shangshan become the world of the Tang people?
Luo Xuan continued: "The Tang Emperor Gaolan newly established the Shangshan Jiedu Mansion, the location of the Jiedu Mansion is Yilong, under the jurisdiction of Pengshan, Yingshan, Fengshan, Yilong four places, the purpose of the establishment of the Shangshan Jiedu Mansion is to take down my Shangshan, and completely take down my Han Shangshan. ”
"Xie Ruyu is the new envoy of Shangshan, even if the task given by the Tang Emperor is to take Shangshan completely, Xie Ruyu's strategy is to win over the corrupt governor of Jiangzhou, infiltrate Shangshan, and control all parts of Shangshan."
"My current task is to go to Shangshan, take control of the Shangshan Guard, and at the same time collect the Shangshan Guard, and prepare for war with the Tang Army in Shangshan."
"General Su Ping took the mountains with his troops, looked north at Jiangzhou, and made an attack posture, in order to attract Zuo Guangping's attention and buy time for our actions."
Wang Si nodded heavily: "General Luo, don't worry, I'll go to collect Wangjiang, and when Wangjiang is closed, I'll go to Yueshan, Quxian, and Dazhu." ”
Luo Xuan stopped Wang Si: "Don't think about it too much, we are not the only ones working in the Han Kingdom, you don't have to think about Yueshanqu County, someone will take it, just do the tasks assigned to you." ”
The two nodded.
Luo Xuan watched the two of them leave with their troops, and the guards behind him asked, "General, will we also leave now?" ”
Luo Xuan nodded, and said, "Let's go, go to my hometown, I'll go to see my parents, and then we'll go to Shangshan." ”
The guards responded with a bang, their faces full of elation. can become Luo Xuan's personal guards, basically they are neighbors, Luo Xuan goes home, and they can all go home.
……
Jiangzhou, the Governor's Mansion.
Zuo Guangping, who had a long beard, was bending down to trim the flowers and trees in front of the hall, humming a small tune, and was contented.
He had already negotiated with Xie Ruyu, and when Shangshan was incorporated into the territory of the Tang State, he would no longer join the army, and just go to any of the Beijing officials in the capital of the Tang State. Thinking that there was no need to fight and kill in the future, a hint of triumph appeared on Zuo Guangping's face.
After a few years in the army, I can enjoy my old age in peace, and I hope to do it by counting the robes that I served in the army together.
Xie Ruyu is also really, he has to wait until the Tang Army completely controls Shangshan and then let himself go, which is really a superfluous move, and the Tang Army will come directly.
A guard strode into the middle hall: "Governor, Tang Shangshan has arrived." ”
Zuo Guangping was overjoyed when he heard this, Xie Ruyu arrived, great, his good days are coming soon.
