Chapter 579: Mutiny (2)
He Shichang fled from Gaochang, the garrison of the Tianshan Army, to Tingzhou in great embarrassment, and he took two soldiers who desperately guarded him out before returning to Tingzhou after three consecutive days of running and killing six horses, and the whole person has lost a lot of weight, no wonder, he is a general who has risen to the top by drilling the camp has not suffered anything at all, this kind of sleepless and frightened for three consecutive days, it is strange not to lose a large circle.

Wang Zhengjian was discussing military and political affairs with Xu Yu and other staff, and suddenly heard a governor outside the door to report: "Marshal Qiqi, the new Tianshan military envoy He Shichang is asking to see him outside the palace gate!" ”
Wang Zheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "He has only been in office for more than half a month, why did he come back?" Even if you want to show loyalty, you don't have to be in such a hurry, right? Did you ask him why he asked for a meeting? ”
The governor said: "The little one didn't ask, but he looked very embarrassed to see He Shichang!" ”
The faces of the others in the hall changed when they heard this, and Wang Zhengjian immediately ordered: "Let him come in quickly!" ”
"No!"
After a while, I saw He Shichang wearing a pair of crooked ordinary soldiers' leather armor and helmet, and his hair was scattered, and he ran in and knelt on the ground and cried: "Dashuai, please be the master of the last general!" ”
The officials in the hall looked at each other, and Wang Zhengjian frowned and asked, "Get up!" What the hell is going on, you stand up and say slowly! ”
"Yes, yes, thank you!" He Shichang thanked him repeatedly, got up and said with a handful of snot and tears: "After the last general arrived in the Tianshan Army, everything acted according to the orders of the marshal, removed all Zhao Ziliang's people, and changed the military rules and discipline and reward rules he set. However, three days ago, the officers and men of the battalions rushed into the garrison of the first battalion to surround the last general, and even asked the last general for his salary."
Wang Zhengjian's staff Xu Yu was puzzled: "General He, there is a way to be a soldier to eat food, and the soldiers point to that military salary every month, and you can just send them the military salary!" Didn't you swallow up the military salary, and the soldiers went to block you when they learned the news? ”
He Shichang immediately cried out: "Marshal, adults, what a great wrong!" Since the last general took office in the Tianshan Army, there has been no military salary from Tingzhou, and there is no money in the army, so what will the last general give them? The last general also sent three groups of people in a row to urge, but there was no response! ”
The officials looked at each other, and at this time, an official walked in outside the door and reported to Wang Zhengjian: "Qiqi Marshal, Chiting Shouchuang, Juliu Shouchuang, Dushan Shouchuang, Zhangbao Shouchuang, Wuzai and other guards have sent people to ask why the military salary has not been allocated for a long time, and now the soldiers of the military towns are angry and ready to move, they say that if the Tingzhou side does not pay the military salary, the army may get out of control!" ”
Wang Zheng's face changed dramatically, and he asked, "What is going on?" Why has there been a delay in the payment of military salaries? Who is in charge of the salary? ”
At this time, Xu Yu patted his head, and said with remorse: "Marshal, all the last generals have not thought about it, and the salaries, salaries and ordnance of the officials, generals and soldiers in my Beiting have all been uniformly distributed by the Jiedu Mansion, but since Zhao Ziliang became the military and horse envoy, he suggested to the marshal that the military and political officials and the generals should be separated, and the salaries of the officials were issued by the Jiedu Embassy, and the salaries of the generals and salaries and the army were issued by the Soldiers and Horses Embassy, in order to be able to smoothly reorganize and train the armies, the marshal agreed to Zhao Ziliang's suggestion, So all the reclamation, camps, and warehouses were all assigned to the Terracotta Embassy, and some of the military's business was also run by the Terracotta Embassy, and Zhao Ziliang appointed his confidant Zheng San to be in charge of this matter, and he actually forgot about it in the next ・・・・・・, which is really damned! ”
An official next to him said with some concern: "The financial power is in the hands of the opponent, we have no money and food, and we can't do anything!" ”
Everyone in the lobby looked at Wang Zhengjian, Wang Zhengjian's brows furrowed tightly, he thought for a moment, raised his head, and shouted fiercely: "Come on, go and spread that Zheng San is here to see Ben Shuai!" ”
"No!"
Soon, the person who went to spread the word to Zheng San returned to report: "Dashuai, the people from the Soldiers and Horses Envoy Mansion said that Lord Zheng went to the various tun lands to urge grain and grass, and he was not in Tingzhou!" ”
"What? Not in Tingzhou? ”
"Yes, Dashuai!"
Wang Zhengjian frowned and thought about it, picked up the brush and spread out a roll of white paper, immediately wrote on it, and quickly wrote an official document on the allocation of military salaries, and stamped it with the big seal of the Jiedu envoy, handed the official document to He Shichang, and instructed: "You first take this official document on the allocation of military salaries to Cangyu to extract military salaries, and after getting military salaries, quickly return to the Tianshan Army garrison to distribute military salaries and control the situation!" ”
He Shichang was overjoyed, his previous embarrassed look was swept away, and he immediately thanked him: "Thank you, handsome!" The last general will not disappoint the marshal and control the Tianshan army for the marshal! ”
Wang Zhengjian saw He Shichang like this, he really didn't like it in his heart, this person is a person who is good at slapping horses, he has no talent, if it weren't for the sake of his willingness to serve, Wang Zhengjian really didn't want to look at this person with a straight eye, just waved his hand and sent him away.
He Shichang took two personal soldiers to the warehouse with the official document for the payment of military salaries, this place is surrounded by a strong wall, except for the front gate, there is no other door, there are eight soldiers standing at the door, and there is a fully armed shoulder knife captain on duty, there is a row of barracks on both sides of the gate, which are inhabited by soldiers guarding the warehouse, in addition, there are garrisons in the warehouse, a total of more than 1,000 people.
When the captain on duty saw He Shichang and the others, he immediately stepped forward and asked: "Stop, the warehouse is heavy, and idle people are forbidden to stay, let alone enter, and you don't leave quickly, otherwise don't blame this military master for being unkind to you!" ”
He Shichang felt that he was the military envoy of the Tianshan Mountains, and his military position was much greater than that of this small gatekeeper captain, so he immediately put up an official shelf and said: "Bold, this general is the Tianshan military envoy He Shichang, you are a small gatekeeper captain who is so rude to this general?" ”
The captain of the gate squinted at the sky and thought about it, and only shook his head for a long time and said, "He Shichang, the military envoy of the Tianshan Mountains?" I haven't heard of it, I only heard that the military envoy of the Tianshan Mountains seems to be the deputy envoy of the soldiers and horses, General Han Zhen! ”
He Shichang was angry for a while, and said angrily: "General Ben took office half a month ago, Han Zhen has been removed from the post of Tianshan military envoy, and now General Ben is the Tianshan military envoy!" ”
The captain of the gate guard looked He Shichang up and down, and finally said, "So what? You are your Tianshan military envoy, and I am my captain of the Cangyu gatekeeper, but the captain of this school is not under your control, you still go back and forth from where! Get lost! Get lost! Get lost! ”
"You ・・・・・・ good boy, you are so disrespectful to General Ben! This general has an official document in his hand to allocate military salaries, open your dog's eyes and take a look! He Shichang said, took out the official document written by Wang Zhengjian in his arms, and showed it to the captain guarding the gate.
The captain guarding the gate took the official document suspiciously, opened it and looked at it, He Shichang snorted coldly next to him: "Look clearly, this is the official document on the allocation of military salaries written by Wang Dashuai, the envoy of Jiedu, you don't want to order someone to prepare these three months' military salaries for this general, and this general will take it away immediately."
The captain guarding the gate carefully read the official document, and suddenly abandoned it to the ground, He Shichang's eyes widened when he saw it, and he pointed at the captain guarding the gate and was furious: "You, you・・・・・・ you actually threw Wang Dashuai's handwritten official document on the ground, you are so bold!" ”
The captain guarding the gate sneered: "Not to mention that the captain of this school has no right to allocate military salaries to you, and this matter is not under my control, even if this matter is under the control of this captain, it is impossible to allocate military salaries to you!" ”
He Shichang was furious: "Why? ”
"I'm afraid that this general hasn't figured it out yet, although the Jiedu envoy Wang Dashuai is in a high position, but he can't directly manage our warehouse, we are under the jurisdiction of Lord Zheng, the judge of the Soldiers and Horses Embassy, and without Lord Zheng's handwritten warrant, not a penny can go out from here! If this General He is in the relationship with Wang Dashuai, then you should go back and let Wang Dashuai give an order directly to Lord Zheng, and Lord Zheng will write an official document on the allocation of military salaries and send it over, so that we can allocate military salaries! ”
He Shichang was dumbfounded, and then said angrily: "You, you even dare to disobey the order of the king marshal?" ”
The captain guarding the gate spread his hands, "There's no way, the county official might as well be in charge now!" ”
When He Shichang saw the captain of the gate guard say this, he immediately changed his face, and hurriedly took out a string of copper coins with a smile on his face and handed it over to flatter: "This general, can you be accommodating?" ”
"What? Want to bribe the captain? The captain of the gate changed his face and said angrily: "I tell you, I can't! Get out, don't get out, believe it or not, Lao Tzu cut you, and then put a charge on you for being good at the treasury, and you will die in vain! ”
He Shichang was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he fled in embarrassment with his own soldiers.
When he came to the Jiedu Embassy again, He Shichang soon saw Wang Zhengjian again, and cried.
Wang Zhengjian asked with a look of disgust: "He Shichang, didn't this official let you take the official document to lead the army's salary?" How did you come back so quickly? ”
He Shichang immediately said: "O marshal, the last general will take your official document to the warehouse to receive military salary, but they say that the county official is not as good as the current management, although you are the envoy of the Beiting Festival, but you have no right to directly inquire about the specific affairs of the warehouse, they can only allocate military salary when they see Zheng San's handwritten official document, otherwise they will not give a penny!" He also asked the last man to find the marshal and ask the marshal to give Zheng San an order and ask him to write an official document on the allocation of military salaries."
Wang Zheng was so angry that he slapped the table and said angrily: "It's really unreasonable! The old man, as the protector of the North Court and the envoy of the camp, couldn't he allocate military salaries? ”
Staff member Xu Yu sighed beside him: "This Zhao Ziliang is scheming, he started to deploy as early as a year ago, and quietly took away the rights that originally belonged to the Jiedu Embassy, but we people are still unaware!" (To be continued.) )
