Wang Shen naturally knew what was going on with him, and smiled: "The prince of the palace takes care of himself, the overall situation of Jianghan has to be presided over by the minister!" This was said with ridicule. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The generals around Wang Shen burst into laughter, and as Wang Shen rode onto the pontoon bridge, he ran across the river arrogantly.

Only Li Heng and a group of staff members were left to eat dust in the back.

All the staff members were full of indignation, and they scolded in unison: "Boss! ”

"Villain!"

"A lowly soldier is not worth a penny."

……

"Alright, Hugh is going to make people laugh." Li Hengtie blushed: "Go, don't fall behind." ”

This time, he was put on a plate by Wang Shen, and he suffered a secret loss, so he could only knock out his front teeth and swallow blood, otherwise what could he do? Turn your face with him and walk away?

Wouldn't this fulfill the wish of the surnamed Wang, and a certain person would not leave!

The day before yesterday, during the military discussion, Li Heng proposed that more than 40,000 yuan of military funds obtained after the extermination of Li Hong be confiscated into the public school.

He had two purposes for this proposal: first, as long as this example was opened, he would be able to grasp the financial power of the Sizhou army. In the future, whether it is to control the army through grain and logistics or simply start from scratch, it will have a rich capital; Second, through this matter, the value will be placed so that the division will be built, and in the future, whether it is to govern the army or the herdsmen, it will be justified. After a long time, imperceptibly, the soldiers of the Sizhou army will realize that their commander Wang Shen still has a system envoy on his head. Yes, the Sizhou army is under the leadership of his Wang, but in the end, it has to be controlled by the people, and in the final analysis, it is under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. The Sizhou army was the army of the Great Song Dynasty, not his Wang Shen's private soldiers.

Li Heng has been in the officialdom all his life, and he is a rare talent in the officialdom of the Southern Song Dynasty, and his grasp of people's hearts is naturally wonderful.

It's a pity, it turns out that the road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high. In the end, not only did he not get any benefits, but he was angry.

Here's the thing, immediately after coming down, a scribe from the Sizhou Army presented the account book to Li Heng's desk, and his attitude was also very respectful: "Fujun, it's already summer, but most of the sergeants and soldiers in the army are still wearing winter clothes. According to the rules of our Sizhou army, each soldier will be given two sets of clothes in summer and winter every year. Today, because there has been a war, there is no harvest in the field. So the matter dragged on until now, and I had to spend money on sackcloth. Fujun, take a look, check the data, and your subordinates can do it. ”

This was Li Heng's first official business after coming to Jianghan, and he directly intervened in the finances of the Sizhou army, and immediately began to calculate the accounts. This matter is not difficult, Li Heng and his staff were busy for a long time, and finally made all the accounts and signed the official letter.

When the scribe saw that he was moving so quickly, he praised him and said; "Yes, the subordinates will go to class. This money will be paid from the account of the envoy, and I will take it to the envoy of the king. ”

"This ......" Li Heng was stunned, feeling as if something was wrong. I haven't seen the more than 40,000 pieces yet, and more than 2,000 pieces of summer clothes alone have been taken away.

"It seems that Wang Shen has calculated, hehe, the surname Wang is a good ** fraud, the old man must not be fooled by him again."

However, after a while, another scribe came over to ask for instructions: "Fujun, in yesterday's battle, our army captured a lot of thieves and prisoners, and my subordinates want to come and ask for instructions, how should these captured thieves be placed?" ”

"Placement?" These are all capable soldiers, and if they are all taken into their own possession, they will immediately be a new army. Li Heng's eyes lit up: "Naturally, it is organized into an army, and this matter has already been planned, and generals will be sent to rectify it in the near future." What's the matter, does Wang Junenvoy have other disposals? ”

"No, no, what the envoy of the king means is that everything is under the orders of the king." The scribe said: "If the prince wants to train a new army, the armor, equipment, and the food and clothing of the soldiers must be repurchased, and this expenditure will have to be taken from the bank's account." ”

Hearing this, Li Heng was furious, and then he realized that Wang Shen was still fighting the idea of more than 40,000 yuan. Snorted coldly and shouted: "This time to cut off Li Hong, Wang Daosi has captured a lot of weapons, horses, and tents, just take a little from him, how can you still pay to buy it?" ”

Scribe: "Fujun, my Sizhou army is already poor, and one person can't do a set of armor, and many times two people only have a spear." This time, Li Hong's battalion was taken, and it was basically fully loaded. How important it is to attack An Lu Zhang Yong and Cao Cheng this time, how can this also ensure the front-line combat troops! "This scribe is Du Shu's person, and he has the title of county lieutenant. As a member of the Du Party, he naturally has nothing to be polite to Li Heng.

Li Heng was furious, what one person can't do with a set of armor, many times two people only have a spear to use, isn't this talking nonsense with his eyes open? When Wang Shen came to Huangzhou from Jiankang, Du Chong emptied almost the entire arsenal of Jiankang Mansion in order to equip this intimate team. When it comes to equipment, Wang Shen can be described as first-class, even better than the official family's pro-army.

However, since Wang Shen had eaten all those equipment in his mouth, there was no longer any possibility for him to spit it out, which caused unnecessary trouble.

He snorted, "Okay, then build and buy." ”

So, he and his subordinates were busy for a long time, and came up with an astonishing figure: if you want to equip so many troops, you need at least 50,000 yuan.

No way, it's just that expensive. A good set of iron armor costs more than a dozen dollars, a knife, a sword, and a war horse...... Money can't buy this thing.

Even if he hollows out all his family foundations, he can't get it, and even if he barely equips it, it is estimated that he will have money to raise troops, and the troops will be scattered in less than two days.

It seems that this thing will not work.

When he was annoyed, a few more scribes came over with official letters, and there was no nonsense: "Fujun, this is the expenditure of the line, and it will be spent soon, please sign and seal it." ”

"What's that?" Li Heng took the official letter and looked at it, and suddenly became angry.

The scribes looked at each other with a sneer.

One said: "Xianggong, in this big battle, the fallen soldiers of our army need to be compensated, the wounded soldiers need treatment and recuperation, and those who can no longer go to the battlefield also need to be resettled in the fields." I waited to find the military envoy Wang, and the military envoy said that these were all things to do, and asked me to come to the minister. ”

Another humane: "Xianggong, exterminate Li Hong's thief army, according to the rule, meritorious soldiers need to be rewarded." The list of officers and soldiers and the data of each army have been counted, please allocate funds to the public. ”

"Xianggong, tomorrow I will levy Zhang Yong, according to the rules of our army, the troops need to allocate money to go out, and please ask Xianggong to come out with a number......"

Li Heng was completely stunned, yes, he had set up the shelf of Xingyuan, and he also got more than 40,000 yuan. But the various expenses of the Sizhou army have also found their own heads, and they can't afford to be unofficial.

He calculated for a long time and found that the more than 40,000 yuan was not only not enough, but he also had to make up for it.

He was broken inside.

If they ignore it, the scribes and generals of various armies will send people to obsess. Those soldiers have a violent personality, they slap the table and smash the bench when they don't agree with each other, and they scold the emperor for not being a hungry soldier. annoyed us and others, slaughtered with a knife, and it was a big deal to go up the mountain and fall into the grass. After a few years, after being recruited, maybe this official should be bigger, which frightened Li Heng's subordinates.

In this way, after staying up all night and calculating the figures, the more than 40,000 yuan of money was spent before it arrived.

He Li Heng fell into a white and the land was really clean, not only did he not get any benefits, but he gave Wang Shen a job as a bookkeeper.

Wang Shenlai came to such a hand, and completely offended Li Heng.

He rode to the pontoon bridge with a calm face, hated his opponent and said: "Wang Shen is really annoying, he sees me as evil? You don't need to talk about those useless things, the future will be long. ”

"Come to Japan, will there be another day?" A staff member smiled bitterly: "Xianggong, I really didn't expect the Sizhou army to be so brave." Li Hong's 10,000 horses were wiped out in just one night. There is also Kong Yanzhou, when the Confucian thieves crisscrossed Jianghuai and Shandong, the court had no choice but to take him. But as soon as Wang Shen made a move, he took off his head. If Wang Shen swept Anlu again this time and pocketed the entire De'an Mansion and Ezhou, we would have no place to live. ”

"yes!" Thinking of his bright future, all the staff and servants sighed.

With Wang Shen's high-flying and domineering warlord style and the fierceness of the Sizhou army, after sweeping away Jianghan, once he got this piece of plastered land, it was naturally impossible to spit it out. With the great achievements and this rich plain, the power of the surname Wang will increase exponentially.

Now that the prestige of the imperial court is gone, it must rely on these military leaders, both externally and internally. Some time ago, the imperial court and the official family had already vigorously encircled the generals of the unified army, changing the ancestral method of Jingkang that had many restrictions on them before.

For example, Zhang Jun and Zhang Boying were named Jiedu envoys because of their meritorious service in suppressing the southern thief army; As for Han Shizhong and Han Liangchen, he was promoted to Ren Jiankang, Zhenjiang, and Huaidong Xuanfu envoys, which greatly boosted the morale of the military attachés.

With the current bird-like appearance of the imperial court that more things are not as good as less things, once Wang Shen takes Jiang Han, he will inevitably be crowned an official and enter the knighthood, and a place envoy or even a festival envoy will not be able to run away.

By that time, everyone would really come to Jingchu for nothing.

Seeing the discouraged appearance of his subordinates, Li Heng snorted coldly and said, "What do you know, in my opinion, Wang Shen used many troops to outwit him, and his troops were not much stronger than the thief army, or even inferior. ”

"Please teach me again."

Li Heng said lightly: "Wang Shen's killing of Kong Yanzhou relied on the internal strife between the father and son of the Kong family, and the Liu family betrayed the city gate and let the Sizhou army enter the city, which led to a big victory." As for last night's battle, you also saw it. Li Hong was stupid and set up a village in a low-lying place, so that Wang Shen came to flood the Seventh Army. To defeat Cao Chengbu, he used fire to attack. As for the real combat effectiveness of the Sizhou army, there is no element of boasting and spreading falsehoods, and the old man does not think there is anything remarkable. If the Sizhou army was really capable of fighting, it would not have attacked Qichun for two months and killed so many soldiers. ”

Hearing this, all the staff members nodded one after another: "Indeed, Wang Shen is a wise general. ”

Li Heng: "Wang Shen's favorite thing to say is that water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. Therefore, every time this person fights, he is single-minded, and even takes risks, which is not a righteous law. Judging from the current hostile situation, Zhang Yong and Cao Chengde's seven or eight thieves have already occupied the entire De'an Mansion, and the space for maneuvering is limited, and it is all the Great Plains. Don't forget, the thief army has 100,000 people, and the strength is stronger than the Sizhou army. Moreover, the thief army is the elite of the former Tokyo Left-behind Division, and its combat effectiveness is probably stronger than that of the Sizhou army. In the old man's opinion, Wang Shen's expedition to the west was very unwise. If the two armies lined up against each other on the plains, it would be difficult to say, and what awaited him would be an unprecedented defeat. ”

"It makes sense."

"Xianggong's words are extremely serious, Wang Shen is arrogant and rebellious, but he regrets not listening to the words of the prince, and will eventually suffer an unprecedented defeat. It doesn't matter if he loses this while, he is afraid that he will ruin the good situation that the imperial court is not easy to create in Jianghan. ”

"In my opinion, it's good that the Sizhou army is defeated. In this way, we can see the talent of the country. ”

"Yes, yes, it's better to lose."

……

Li Heng scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about, although the old man has a relationship with Wang Daosi, but the Sizhou army is the army of the imperial court after all. Where is the reason for expecting the thieves to win and the officials and troops to lose, absurd, absurd. ”

However, there was an indescribable pleasure in his heart.

When he said what he said just now, he actually believed it a little: The Sizhou army may really not be able to defeat Zhang Yong them!
