The garrison of the Desert Army. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Desert Army was adapted from the Yiwu Army, and the reorganized military envoy was appointed by Chu Ge, but Chu Ge was Zhao Ziliang's person, so Wang Zhengjian immediately removed Chu Ge's position after this move and appointed Yang Jinrong as the desert military envoy.
Yang Jinrong was very angry, half a month has passed since he took office, and only two or three lieutenant generals and colonels have expressed their participation, which made him a little happy at first, after all, there are people in the colonels who have served shows that he can effectively control the army, although he is the main general, but if there is no one below to help, he has no way to control the army, he can only buy people's hearts, on the one hand, screen the people who belong to Zhao Ziliang in the army, find a way to drive these people away, and then install people who serve themselves and are trustworthy to make up, But if no one came to him, he would simply be able to control the army.
Within a few days, the generals who had just begun to say that they would not go to see him again, even if they saw him at the time of the military discussion, they did not meet separately at other times, which made him very puzzled and annoyed, and after inquiry, he learned that these people were threatened not to mix with him, how did this not make him angry?
Angry is angry, but he has begun to understand his situation a little, he is isolated! Although he is the supreme general of the desert army, he is vacated by the generals below, no one listens to him, his orders cannot be conveyed, every time the military meeting is called, the generals or the generals agree on the spot, but they refuse to carry it out afterwards; Either he refuted his orders on the spot, he had just come to take office and was not familiar with many affairs in the army, and once the generals and colonels below refuted his orders and pointed out his mistakes, he was speechless.
"Bastard, bastard! This group of kings and eight lambs actually committed the following crimes, lawlessness, lawlessness! Yang Jinrong watched this group of arrogant soldiers and fierce generals march away, so angry that he flipped the table and smashed the bench in the barracks on the spot, and scolded non-stop.
A staff member said: "General, our situation is really worrying, according to the current situation, you are vacated by the generals of the battalions below, you can't be in a hurry at this time, and you can't be in a hurry, the general can only try to gain a firm foothold in the army, and then try to do something else!" ”
Yang Jinrong looked weak and lay on the chair, his expression was very decadent, and he said weakly: "Now it can only be like this!" By the way, is there any news from Tingzhou about military salaries? ”
"There is no news from Junting Prefecture yet!"
Yang Jinrong sighed: "You also heard it during the military discussion just now, the matter of military salaries cannot be delayed any longer, and if it is delayed, something may happen!" If you think about it from another perspective, we are just a small soldier, but we are dragged up and not paid, and our family still has to live on this military salary, what will you do if you are forced to be anxious? ”
The staff thought for a while and said: "If it is an ordinary person, others owe money and ask for it every day at most, but the soldiers here have a violent temperament, and they are all killed in the pile of dead people. ”
Yang Jinrong nodded and said: "Although I Yang has no talent, but I am also mixed in the army, what kind of virtue are these Qiu Ba, I still don't know?" We still have to find a way to make money as soon as possible! ”
At this time, a personal soldier walked in from outside the door and reported: "General, Deng Xiaochao, the captain of the third battalion, asks to see you!" ”
Yang Jinrong was stunned for a moment, looked at the staff, and thought to himself, is this guy here to serve? In any case, it is good that someone comes to do the service, and he commands, "Let him in!" ”
"No!"
A medium-sized, armored strong man walked in with a sword, hugged his fist at Yang Jinrong and said, "I've seen General Yang!" ”
Yang Jinrong nodded, pointed to the stool next to him and said, "General Deng, please take a seat!" ”
"General Xie sit down!"
"I wonder what happened to Captain Deng here?"
Deng Xiaochao complained: "General Yang, it's not that you have to block your humble position, it's really that you can't live this day, the soldiers in the battalion are forced to ask for military salaries every day, and the humble duties are forced to be unable to go back to the camp, and after returning to the camp, a large number of soldiers and captains surround my residence, if it weren't for the humble work to maintain, I'm afraid that those guys would have made a fuss!" Alas, General Yang, hurry up and get me some money, I don't have any money to send to them, I'm afraid that the bullet can't be suppressed, if something really happens, no one can bear the responsibility! ”
Yang Jinrong didn't have the money to take out, so he could only drag it, so he smiled at Deng Xiaochao and said: "Captain Deng, don't worry, General Ben has already sent a fast horse to Tingzhou to urge, I believe that the military salary will be shipped over soon!" In this way, you go back first, and once there is news, General Ben will be the first to notify you to come and receive your salary, okay? ”
Deng Xiaochao looked at Yang Jinrong, then looked at the staff next to him, opened his mouth, but did not say it, Yang Jinrong was shrewd and knew that Deng Xiaochao had something to say, but it was difficult to say it because of the presence of the staff, so he said to Deng Xiaochao: "This Mr. Gao is his own person, Deng Duwei has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”
Deng Xiaochao hesitated for a moment, and said to Yang Jinrong: "General Yang, don't hide it from me, don't hide it, I have a relative who works in the Jiedu Embassy, yesterday he came here to do business, and came to see the humble position, and the humble position learned from him that the Tingzhou side could not pay the military salary at all, and now the entire Beiting Army has not been paid, and the soldiers in many military towns have made trouble, we are quite good here, and the soldiers are quite restrained, but no one dares to guarantee what will happen in the next moment." Therefore, General Yang is counting on Tingzhou to pay salaries, but he is afraid that he will be disappointed, if he does not want to solve the problem of military salaries in other ways, something will happen sooner or later! ”
Yang Jinrong turned his head and glanced at the staff, who understood and immediately asked; "Looks like Deng Duwei has a way?"
Deng Xiaochao walked to the door of the barracks to take a look, and then returned to Yang Jinrong and whispered: "General Yang may not know that the Tianshan Army has mutinied, the military envoy He Shichang was besieged by his generals, and dozens of his own soldiers were killed. Originally, it was planned to send a special trip to escort a group of soldiers and horses to the Tianshan Army garrison, but now the Han Navy is also very unstable because of the lack of military salaries, Wang Dashuai did not dare to send the city defense army to escort the military salaries in order to guard the safety of Tingzhou, so the military salaries were transported to the Tianshan Army garrison by He Shichang, the envoy of the Tianshan Army, with more than 50 people, if General Yang wants to solve the problem of military salaries, this is a good way! ”
Yang Jinrong didn't come back to his senses for a while, and couldn't help asking, "What's the way?" ”
Deng Xiaochao was also stunned, thinking that he had said this so clearly, why didn't this guy understand? At this time, I heard Mr. Gao, a staff member next to him, ask: "Does Captain Deng mean to send someone to rob this batch of military salaries, and then we will transport them back to pay the soldiers and soldiers to stabilize the morale of the army?" ”
Deng Xiaochao gave a thumbs up to Mr. Gao: "Mr. Gao is worthy of being a staff member, just one point!" ”
Yang Jinrong and Mr. Gao couldn't help but gasp, and scolded in their hearts, this kid is too bold, right? He even thought of robbing the military salary for the Tianshan Army? In case of an incident and someone finds out, this is a matter of losing your head!
Yang Jinrong looked at Deng Xiaochao and said in a deep voice: "Captain Deng, are you not joking?" It's a head-scratching thing! ”
Deng Xiaochao said: "Does General Yang think I'm joking?" I only know that if we don't pay our brothers and don't wait for the court to deal with us, we will first be cut down by the sergeants below, because the sergeants below will never think that the court has delayed the payment of the salary, but will think that it is our generals who have deducted the salary, whether it is the sergeants below or the court, in the end they will count the guilt on us! ”
Yang Jinrong was said by Deng Xiaochao, and the sense of urgency came up again, and Mr. Gao, a staff member, walked up to him at this time and whispered in his ear: "General, if you can get the military salary through this matter and distribute the military salary, what do the soldiers below think of the general?" Although they will not support the general, they will definitely not reject the general anymore, so the general will also gain a firm foothold in the desert army, as for the rest of the things, I will talk about it slowly in the future, what do you think? ”
Although Yang Jinrong's words from his staff member Mr. Gao are quite reasonable, and this is also the only good way to break the deadlock at present, he really doesn't dare to rob the military salaries that are transported to the Tianshan Army.
He weighed it, looked up at Deng Xiaochao, and asked, "Why is Captain Deng so enthusiastic?" ”
When Mr. Gao, a staff member, heard this, he immediately became alert, and stared at him with eyes that seemed to see through everything about Deng Xiaochao.
Deng Xiaochao said: "General Yang, I don't want my battalion to have an accident, although this matter is to help you, but at the same time to help myself, I don't dare to do it alone, I can't do it, but if you do it with me, the grasp will be much greater, there can not be too many people to do this thing, in order to prevent leakage of news, you must be a trusted and reliable person, General Yang has more than 100 personal soldiers in his hands, and there are more than a dozen life and death brothers in his hands, if we do this together, the grasp will be more than eighty!" If the matter is done, in addition to the silver money for the whole army's military salary, the rest of the money and property will be half of the lowly position, this is the condition and requirement of the lowly position, if General Yang agrees, we will immediately discuss the details, and set off late this night to set up an ambush on the road to Gaochang in Tingzhou, waiting for He Shichang and others to rhyme with the arrival of military salaries! What does General Yang think? ”
Yang Jinrong and his staff member Mr. Gao glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that this kid wanted to get a vote by himself, why did I say that he was so positive? If I am not afraid that he is greedy for money, I am afraid that he will not be greedy for money, so why don't I plan it?
So Yang Jinrong immediately said: "Okay, General Ben agrees to your request, as long as this matter is successful, the military salary will be distributed to the whole army after being transported back, and the rest of us will be half of us!" ”
"Deal!" (To be continued.) )
