Chapter 14 The Fourteenth Silver
The misshot just now also boosted Ye Xun's confidence, although the accuracy was a little worse, but it was enough for the tiger man.
Seeing that Huang Taiji's guards seemed to have the intention of making a move, Gong Quanan raised his hand and put the machete on the victory hook across his chest, and stepped forward with Ye Xun's half of a horse's head, putting on a posture of loyal protector.
Ye Xun pursed his lips, this guy is not blindly afraid of death, it is worth using, but you haven't seen what Huang Taiji is scared of, and the traces of your sycophants are too obvious! Lao Tzu despises you.
As if he didn't see those sabre-rattling guards, he smiled and said: "Babel, you should know that if I shot you just now, you would be lying on the ground now, but our family is kind-hearted and can't bear to kill, so we decided to let you go back."
"Go back and tell your father, our family is actually not sure to hold Tieling, but our family is sure to touch into your camp in the middle of the night, you should know that with our family's means, by the way, touching two heads back, it doesn't seem to be a big problem, of course, it depends on how you behave, that's all, please go back!"
Huang Taiji's face was blue and white for a while, and he couldn't help scolding angrily in his heart, you are still fucking kind-hearted, do you want to have a face?
Angry is angry, but he also knows that Ye Xun is telling the truth, and these guards around him are also masters in the camp, but they are obviously not the opponents of this little eunuch, and they don't know what he just fought, but it is definitely not a fire system, otherwise there will be no trace at all, and this hand alone is enough to make people jealous.
It is conceivable that if he returned to the camp and encouraged his father Khan to attack Tieling, this demon might really steal into the camp, and he could figure out who it was in the camp that was worth his hands.
Don't talk nonsense at the moment, clench your fists slightly, and say coldly: "Father-in-law's grace today, Ben Baylor remembers"
Ye Xun also hugged his fists like Huang Taiji, and said with a hippie smile: "Go back and take care of the grain and grass in your camp, the weather is dry and dry, be careful of fire, if you have leisure, welcome to come to Tieling again as a guest."
Huang Taiji snorted angrily, and took the lead in turning the horse's head and walking backwards, while the guards were still on guard against Ye Xun until Huang Taiji's horse walked out of a certain distance, and then they beat the horse and left.
Watching Huang Taiji and his entourage drift away, Gong Quanan stretched out his thumb at Ye Xun and praised: "Father-in-law is clever, Huang Taiji goes back this time, the old slave doesn't want to sleep tonight, but the last general feels that stealing the camp is too dangerous, and the father-in-law's daughter must not be easily involved."
Ye Xun glanced at Gong Quanan and said, "Does General Gong think that our family is really that tiger?" ”
Gong Quanan reacted at this time, and couldn't help but "Hehe! smiled, patted his head, and said, "Sure enough, it's a pig's head, but my father-in-law just said that Ye Hebu attacked Hetuala, and the North Korean Jiang Hongli is true?" ”
"I just wanted to praise you for being self-aware, but after listening to your last sentence, forget it, you really have a problem with your head"
After Ye Xun finished speaking, he ignored him, turned his horse's head and walked towards the city gate.
Before arriving at the city gate, the city gate had been opened again, Li Rulong led a team of iron horsemen to gallop out, and bursts of cheers sounded on the city wall, as if Ye Xun had just returned from a victory.
Ye Xun rode on the horse, feeling the enthusiasm of the soldiers and civilians in Tieling, and at the same time, he also felt the heaviness on his shoulders.
Trust is responsibility, but can you afford it? The Jurchen army really came over, did he really have the ability to lead them to repel the Jurchen army?
"Father-in-law is a true god and a man!"
Li Rulong clasped his fists on horseback and said loudly, and the knights who came with him were also full of admiration on their faces.
Single-handedly repelling the Jurchen army, talking and laughing in front of Huang Taiji, one of the four Jurchen Baylors, and a few words frightened Huang Taiji to flee, such a person is not worthy of admiration, who is worthy of admiration?
Ye Xun smiled and waved at the soldiers and civilians above and below the city, and then threw the box of gold, silver and jewelry given to him by Huang Taiji to Li Rulong, who came over.
"Exchange these things for silver and give them to me"
It's not that Ye Xun doesn't love money, it's just that now is not the time to hold silver, and besides, these things are given by Huang Taiji, if he doesn't want to be caught, he has to dispose of this thing.
Li Rulong misunderstood Ye Xun's intentions, and after handing over the box to his subordinates, he said: "When my father-in-law was outside the city just now, some gentry in the city had already sent invitations and wanted to feast my father-in-law to thank my father-in-law for his kindness in guarding the city."
"In addition, according to my father-in-law's orders, the last general has sent people to search for people who raise birds from house to house in the whole city, and I believe that there will be results soon."
Ye Xun shook his head and said: "There is no need to eat, let them have something affordable, the soldiers are bloody in front of the enemy, and they are also protecting those of them who have a fortune, they can't help but show something, you send someone to count it, and donate silver according to your ability."
Speaking of this, Ye Xun put on an expression that seemed to be smiling rather than smiling, and continued: "Our family has heard a long time ago that individual officers have the habit of eating empty salaries and drinking soldiers' blood, and our family will personally follow up on this matter.
Anyone who knows a little history knows that in the late Ming Dynasty, the military households in various places lived a miserable life, and those who couldn't survive fled and became homeless people, and the rest were tenant farmers of the generals, and even so, they didn't necessarily have enough to eat.
Imagine what combat power such an army has? Some people explain that the death of the party struggle and the erosive guard military system are not an important reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
Whether it is Li Rulong or Gong Quanan, who has never eaten empty salary, although it is wartime, they may not have the courage to be greedy for the salary of the soldiers, but there are still some things to say in front, after all, for the city of Tieling, Ye Xun is a real outsider.
But Ye Xun is still a little too taken for granted, saying that eunuchs in this era don't love money, it's like people saying that sows can go up trees, no one believes it at all, so Ye Xun must do it later.
Li Rulong also went up, hugged his fists and obeyed the order, then looked left and right, and saw that except for Ye Xun beside him, Gong Quan'an was the closest, and he was busy pulling the reins to make his crotch get closer to Ye Xun.
Only then did he lower his voice and said: "My father-in-law doesn't know that the richest family in the city belongs to General Li's family."
"General Lee?"
Ye Xun was slightly stunned, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he immediately knew that General Li's family that Li Rulong was talking about was that.
"Li Chengliang's family, the only one who can be called the richest man in Tieling in this era is Li Chengliang's family, two generations of business accumulation, saying that his family has no money, who believes it! Li Rulong is also a member of the Li family, but he took the initiative to provide Ye Xun with information about the Li family, isn't this guy afraid that the family will settle accounts with him? ”
Facing Ye Xun's puzzled gaze, Li Rulong was very calm, and said lightly: "My ancestor is a partial house, otherwise he would not have been appointed as the guard of Tieling at this time."
Ye Xun understood, this is completely a drama of internal family disputes, although Li Rulong's words are plain, there is great hatred in his heart, obviously he has been quite aggrieved all these years.
This is exactly the case, if it weren't for Ye Xun's timely appearance, it would be impossible to say whether he, Li Rulong, would be alive or not.
Ye Xun glanced at Li Rulong deeply and said, "Li Rubai and Li Ruzhen are still generals of the imperial court, how can their homes move?" ”
Li Rulong turned his head and looked at Gong Quanan, although he didn't say anything, his eyes already said everything.
Gong Quanan's subordinates are subordinate to Kaiyuanwei, and now they are in chaos, and if a gang of bandits suddenly appears in the city, there is no way to trace them afterwards.
Ye Xun has to admit that this trick is indeed damaging enough, but it is indeed quite exciting, which is more in line with Ye Xun's style of doing things.
When the group entered the city gate, Ye Xun suddenly remembered that he had traveled to Tieling for almost a day! Why hasn't a Ming civil official ever seen it?
