Chapter 688: Shi A's Plan

After hearing this, Teji sighed and said, "General Shi, what do you say?" Although the method we came up with at the beginning was good, we didn't expect that there was no money, so I'm afraid it would be difficult to do! ”

Shi Adao: "I think the money is still in the city!" ”

"Why?" Twentieth asked.

Shi Ah Dao: "Let me sell it!" ”

Teji Twenty-One rolled his eyes and was immediately speechless.

Shi Ah shouted, "Someone! ”

A soldier ran in.

Shi A's expression was serious, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Immediately post a notice at the gate of the city, and look for ten people who saw Long Kui leading people to withdraw from the county seat." Whoever gives testimony and information will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver, which must be done quickly, and must be completed within half an hour. ”

"Yes!"

When the soldier heard this, he turned and left the palace.

Then, Shi Ah called another soldier and whispered a few words.

At these words, even the special twenty couldn't hear clearly what Shi A said.

Special Twenty said: "General Shi, what do you want to do?" ”

"Don't worry?" Shi Dao.

As soon as he heard this, he was not in a hurry, he was very angry.

……

At the gate of the city, after looking for ten notices that saw the Song army leading the troops to withdraw were posted, there were a lot of people in line.

Because as long as you can tell the situation at that time, then you can get the field, this is a pie in the sky, how can you miss it?

The soldiers selected ten civilians and led them to the yamen.

Upon arrival, the soldier asked ten civilians to wait outside, then entered the hall and reported: "General, the people have been brought and are waiting outside." ”

"Come one by one, let the first person come in first."

Shi Ah already has a chance to win at this time, and he also has his own thoughts.

The soldiers went to deliver the order, and soon a citizen walked in.

When the people saw Shia, they immediately knelt down.

Shi Ah hurriedly stopped, and the people stood respectfully, but they still didn't dare to come out.

Shi Ah said: "I ask very simple questions, don't be nervous. ”

However, the people are still nervous.

Shi Ah was helpless and asked: "Long Kui took the soldiers out of the city, so did you lead a carriage to leave here at that time?" ”

The people thought for a moment, and immediately said, "When Nightshade left with the soldiers, he left in a hurry. I saw them at the gate of the city, without any luggage, and with them in a carriage. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Alright, you go down."

Shi Ah waved his hand and looked at Tetwenty proudly.

The people said with some reluctance: "General, Xiaomin has already told you about the situation at that time, when will you get the money?" ”

Speaking of money, he said excitedly: "You put up a notice saying that you will give silver as a reward for answering the question, so you can't help but count it." ”

The people were still timid and cowardly just now, but they changed their appearance in the blink of an eye.

At the end of the day, it's money that makes you courageous.

Shi Ah smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are people who come!"

I'm going to ask the other people, and when the other people are done, they'll give you money. Wait outside for the time being, don't rush. ”

"Yes, yes!"

The people nodded again and again, and withdrew excitedly.

Then a second citizen walked in.

This time, Shi Ah asked the same question, and the focus was also on the carriage.

The people answered the same question, no carriage left.

The answer of the ten people was the same, and the soldiers gave each of them silver, and then dismissed the people.

At this time, Shi A said with a smile on his face: "Special Twenty General, do you understand?" ”

Special Twenty smiled and said: "I understand, why did you come to Baiqing just to prove that the gold, silver and jewelry on Pu have not been moved, but hidden." It's just that it's not easy to find where the money is hidden! ”

Shi Ah laughed loudly: "I have already sent someone to find it!" ”

"Step!!"

At this moment, a soldier walked in and said loudly: "Report to General Shi, in the pond under the rockery in the backyard, ten large sealed boxes have been taken out. ”

"Let's go, let's take a look!"

Shi Ah laughed and walked towards the backyard with Te Twenty.

When he came to the backyard, he immediately ordered the soldiers to open it.

After all the ten large boxes were opened, there were a lot of dazzling gold and silver jewels in the golden bars, and there were some silver-white ingots of silver in these gold and silver jewelry, which simply blinded the eyes of everyone present.

There are ten large boxes, all of which are the money in the treasury of the entire Northern Patrol Mansion.

Nightshade could not be taken away, so it was sealed and put in the pond.

However, I didn't expect to be searched out in a blink of an eye.

Shi Ah instructed: "Count all the money at once, and then exchange it with the money in the city, and turn it into a small amount of silver." We promised to give money to the people who went with us, and we had to keep it.

When the people who received the money left, and those who were willing to stay, we chose the best people to serve as soldiers. ”

"Yes!"

The soldier immediately left and went to find someone from the bank.

Shi Ah was left to guard it, and he left with Te XX.

In one day, all the money was cashed out, and there were 2.23 million taels of silver.

This is mainly due to the fact that there are enough gold bars to cash out so much silver.

The soldiers of Sa Jean entered the barracks with two pieces of silver, put all the silver in the barracks, and let the people who participated in the attack on Guiping County with him receive the money.

The number of civilians in the army was 58,000. Shi Ah ordered the soldiers in the army to divide the silver according to the twenty taels of silver for one person, and it was like this, more than two million silver went out directly.

In the end, there were only more than 100,000 taels of silver left, all of which were given to more than 5,000 soldiers in the army. Spread evenly, each soldier can also have more than twenty taels of silver.

In the barracks, the people left happily, and the scale was also rapid, and they retreated, so at this time more than 10,000 people were left.

These people actually want to follow Shi Ah and Te Twenty and want to continue to make money.

It's a pity that Shi Ah obviously can't need such loose people anymore to pick soldiers. Shia gave the order to recruit troops from among the people,

More than 5,000 people ran away at once, and only 5,000 were left willing to stay and join the army.

More than 5,000 people were selected, but only 3,000 remained.

When he was in Wunan, Ji Brahma transferred soldiers from Changsha to replenish him.

The soldiers under Shi A's command were replenished by 1,000 men, and the special 20 men were also replenished by 1,000 men, and the soldiers of each of the two were approaching two thousand five.

Now there are 3,000 soldiers left, and when they are evenly divided, the number of soldiers in each of them has increased again, and it is already more than 4,000.

Their respective military strength has been greatly improved.
