"Silver? How can the water bandits have any silver? ”

"My lord, the last general doesn't know, I heard that they found two big coffins in that water village, and there are nearly a million taels of silver in them!"

"What, how is that possible?"

"My lord, those two coffins are still in the army, and the last general has sent someone to check them, and they are indeed real money!"

Xu Dingguo touched his short beard, and Chen Yongfu knew at a glance that he was tempted.

"My lord, this silver was originally stolen by our soldiers and horses, and it should have belonged to the adults!"

Xu Dingguo nodded and paced around. This nearly a million taels of silver is his salary for four or five years.

Every time, he had to beg his grandfather to tell his grandmother to ask the ministers of the court for food and salary. Now that so much silver suddenly appeared in front of him, how could he not be tempted!

Luo Hui and the others waited for half an hour in the General Soldier's Mansion, and the shelf of this Chief Soldier was really big!

"Haha, Lord Qincha, please forgive General Mo for being inconvenient to salute!"

Although Luo Hui is a little disliked, he is not stupid enough to show it!

"General Xu has every opportunity, it stands to reason that Ben Qin should not be disturbed!"

Xu Dingguo laughed: "You are the emperor's royal faction, you have the emperor's order, how can you worry about the trivial matters of the last general!" ”

He looked at the old man beside Luo Hui, and at first thought that he was the minister of the Qin Mission.

"Who is this lord?"

"Wan Bi, the head of the lower army department, is now Lord Luo's deputy!"

As soon as he heard that it was someone from the Ministry of War, Xu Dingguo immediately panicked. What they are most afraid of is that these officials of the military department, every time they went to the military department to transfer the talismans, they had to kneel and salute, which was really embarrassing!

However, this is not the case. Now that the country is in crisis, as the chief soldier of Shanxi with heavy troops, he no longer has to look at the faces of those military masters, let alone kneel and salute!

"The last general has seen all the things!"

But even now, Xu Dingguo would not offend the people of the military department and saluted him.

"Xia Guan has seen General Xu!"

Wan Bi didn't care about it, and understated it. I don't know how many commanders have knelt down to him, and he is not worse than Xu Dingguo.

"Everyone, sit down!"

Xu Dingguo invited Luo Hui and Wan Bi to sit down, and looked at Guo Yizhong deeply.

After the three of them sat down, only Guo Yizhong was standing.

"General Guo, you are so majestic, take 2,000 people to fight water bandits!"

Xu Dingguo's tone of not yin and yang made Luo Hui a little unhappy.

"The last will be convicted!" Guo Yizhong lowered his head.

"What is your sin?"

"The last general will transfer troops without the advice of the adults!"

"What about transferring troops privately?"

Guo Yizhong was very bitter: "It's a capital crime, and it should be beheaded!" ”

"General Xu Bing, that soldier was sent by Ben Qin, if you want to punish the crime, you can send it to Ben Qin!"

Luo Hui couldn't look at it, and the chief soldier didn't seem to intend to let Guo Yizhong go.

Xu Dingguo smiled yin: "Lord Qincha, you are carrying a holy order, how dare the last general punish you, but this Guo Shen General transferred troops without asking for instructions, this crime is confirmed!" ”

Luo Hui: "At that time, because of the urgency of the situation, the silver transported to the front line of Governor Sun was robbed by those water bandits, so Ben Qin sent a knife to force General Guo to transfer troops!" ”

Xu Dingguo touched his short beard, it turned out to be really silver. The imperial court is really eccentric, giving Governor Sun so much silver salary at one time, and it is really difficult for him to ask for a little food!

"My lord, there is also a shortage of silver in Shanxi, and many soldiers' salaries have been in arrears for several months, so it is better to leave the silver in Taiyuan, you must know that the Manchus and Mongolia are all staring at here!"

Luo Hui's eyes were cold, this person is really bold, and he even dares to withhold military salaries!

But when he heard him say this, he knew that he was in great trouble, and it was much more difficult to take out these pieces of money from him than to rob them from the bandits!

"Damn warlord!"

At this time, Luo Hui finally realized who this Xu Dingguo general soldier was!

These men had a heavy army in their hands and demanded food and pay from the imperial court every year. If you don't give it, you may rebel. Just like the Leiden Rebellion of that year, several warlords in Liaodong mutiny because of the problem of money and surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and since then the strength of the Manchu Qing has increased greatly, and the situation in Liaodong has been out of control, more and more erosive, and has become a cancer of the Ming Dynasty.

After this incident. So much so that some general soldiers asked the court for food and salary, and the court had to satisfy these people, give money and power, and help fight if they gave food and salary, and if they didn't give it, they might rebel at any time. For this reason, the imperial court had to increase taxes, and this is how the Liao salary came, which made the people miserable, and the people turned to the anti-king, which made Li Zicheng and others rise again.

"Lord General Soldier, this is the salary given by the imperial court to Governor Sun, and now Lord Sun is fighting against the king, if this batch of food and salary cannot be transported to the front line and loses the battle, whose responsibility is it!"

Luo Hui's tone became solemn, and he had to put pressure on him in the name of the imperial court!

Xu Dingguo touched his beard, the current situation is too unclear. Daming still has a lot of troops, and if his 20,000 or 30,000 troops really go against the imperial court, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg!

"In this way, this batch of silver will be divided into three or seven parts, and you will take three points and send them to Governor Sun!"

Xu Dingguo has made what he thinks is the biggest concession.

Luo Hui's eyes emitted a terrifying light, this Xu Dingguo had completely annoyed him. This person will not be willing to take a bite from this batch of silver!

Wan Bi saw that the two of them were a little angry, and hurriedly persuaded them.

"If you have something to discuss, don't hurt the harmony!"

Luo Hui stared at Xu Dingguo deadly: "This matter can't be the master, wait for me to go back and report to the emperor!" ”

When Xu Dingguo heard this, he was a little anxious, this kind of thing was known to Chongzhen, how could he spare him. Even if he is spared now, he will inevitably settle accounts after the autumn.

"Lord Chincha, will you please not do this?"

"What if Benchin has to do it!"

The two of them stared directly at each other with their eyes wide open.

Xu Dingguo looked at his eyes, he didn't expect that such a young man would not be afraid of him as a general who broke through in the sea of corpses and blood, it was really not simple!

"Someone's coming!"

As soon as he gave the order, two teams of soldiers immediately came!

"Is General Xu going to kill Ben Qincha?"

Xu Dingguo shook his head: "Lord Qincha, the last general is loyal and patriotic, how can he do such a thing!" ”

Luo Hui looked at him coldly, if he really wanted to rebel, he would never be arrested, and he would kill him even if he fought for his life!

"Guo Yizhong privately mobilized troops and pushed him out to behead the public!"

Luo Hui was shocked, this person did it on purpose. He knew that he couldn't let Guo Yizhong be beheaded, it was really a good means.

"No, General Guo is a general of the imperial court, how can General Xu say that he is beheaded!"

Xu Dingguo smiled: "General Guo mobilized troops and horses privately, and the last general will implement military law, military law is like a mountain, does Lord Qincha also want to intervene?" Come on, put Guo Yi down! ”
