Immediately, Zuo Guigui hesitated for a moment and said, "Lord Junmen, if we follow your orders, we will cut out about a thousand people!" We're under a lot of pressure......"

Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment and replied, "Who said I want to lay off a thousand people?" How is 1,000 men enough, according to my assumption, the existing army must be reduced to 1,800 men, and then, 700 strong recruits must be recruited from the people! It's hard to say whether these people in front of them can choose 1,800 people! ”

Forehead......

Zuo Guigui's head is full of black lines, this military master is really in a hurry, that is, he wants to lay off 17,800 people in one go, nearly half! Aren't all the soldiers in the entire Baoding town going crazy? The most important thing is to cut out soldiers, that is to give people severance pay, and even if they give people severance pay, they are not willing to leave the barracks, and they take it with them in the barracks, at least they still have an iron rice bowl, once they leave the army, it will be nothing!

"Lord Junmen, isn't our scale too big, 17,800 people, half of the posts are eliminated, we have to pay people severance pay, this is a huge amount!"

Guo Ye was stunned, so specially, he forgot about this matter! Demobilized soldiers, you have to pay severance pay to others, and there are quite a few!

Guo Ye asked: "Guanting, if we dismiss the soldiers, how much silver do you have to give to someone?" ”

Zuo Guigui replied: "My lord, generally speaking, to dismiss the soldiers, we have to pay fifteen taels of silver per person, if we lay out 1,800 people, it will be a small 30,000 taels of silver, and the most important thing is that even if we pay the severance pay, many people are unwilling to leave, and it is easy to make trouble." ”

Wipe! Thirty thousand taels of silver, Guo Ye can't help but sigh for his teeth, this is a lot of money! And that doesn't guarantee that they'll all be sent away, and those old soldiers don't want to just lose their errands!

Guo Ye said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter, among these dismissed sergeants, those who ignore military discipline will be dismissed according to fifteen taels per person, and the rest of the old, weak, sick and disabled, in order to sympathize with them, they can receive thirty taels of severance pay per person!" ”

Zuo Guigui almost fainted, didn't the Lord of the Military Gate hear what he meant clearly, he was already 30,000 taels less just now, and now he will double it, let alone 40,000 or 50,000 taels of silver!

Zuo Guigui hurriedly said: "My lord, where can we take out so much silver in our small general military mansion!" ”

Guo Ye ignored Zuo Guigui and shouted, "Commander Luo, how much silver does our General Military Mansion have available now?" ”

Luo Zili's face was bitter, this topic was the one that made him most entangled, before the new general soldier arrived, Guo Zhiqiang tossed hard, but he did not embezzle less silver, and he added five to two, and divided the embezzled silver into three parts, one was directly given to the governor's mansion, one went into his own pocket, and the other was three staff leaders plus a few pipe belts, and now there is really not much money in the camp.

Luo Zili said astringently: "Lord Junmen, this, there are still a total of 20,000 taels of silver in the General Military Mansion, which is used for food and salary payment in the next two months, and we can withdraw 10,000 taels of silver from the Admiral's Mansion Treasury every month as a military salary......"

Twenty thousand taels!

That's enough of a fart? I'm afraid that in the next two months, just dressing and eating, I will be very nervous!

Guo Ye's face sank at that time, and he said angrily: "Luo Shenling, when I went out of Beijing, I asked the Ministry of War for the arrears of Baoding Town's salary, but the Ministry of War told me that Baoding is an important town, and the Ministry of War has never been in arrears, but last month's salary was not issued in time!" In the dignified town of Baoding, there are only 20,000 or 30,000 taels of silver left, even if the salary of the military department is sent down, how can you make up the arrears of salary, where does this money go? ”

The corners of Luo Zili's mouth twitched, I'm a military gate, where did all this silver go? Haven't you been swallowed up and down?

However, in such a case, where can you talk nonsense, this involves the Governor's Mansion and the Admiral's Mansion! Guo Zhiqiang, the deputy general, is nothing, but the governor of Zhili behind him is not something anyone can afford to provoke, and the entire territory of Zhili, Shandong, and Henan is under his jurisdiction! is in a high position, and if you want to clean yourself up, it is no different from crushing an ant to death! Even the military gate in front of him will definitely not be able to withstand the pressure of others!

Seeing that Luo Zili didn't speak, Guo Ye looked at Zuo Guigui and asked what was going on with Zuo Guigui.

Zuo Guigui sighed and told the story again, without him, just peeling the skin layer by layer, any green battalion is almost like this, not only Baoding Town!

After Guo Ye listened, his face turned dark, this group of corrupt officials! These corrupt officials! ******！ A bunch of corpse vegetarian meal waste!

Guo Ye looked at Luo Zili and said, "Luo Shenling, what do you say?" ”

Luo Zili's face turned pale, he didn't expect this Zuo Guigui to be so ruthless, and he actually shook out all the old bottoms!

Luo Zili said astringently: "My lord, I ......"

Guo Ye took a deep breath and replied: "The previous matter, before I Guo Ye took office in Baoding Mansion, I don't care how you toss, this time, as long as you return all the money and property that are greedy for ink back to the General Military Mansion, I will not blame the past, no matter how much I am greedy for ink, I will give you a chance to mend your ways." However, from tomorrow onwards, there will still be people who dare to be greedy for money, and they will be severely punished, more than ten taels, thirty lashes, sixty taels of lashes or more, and fifty taels or more, and the head of the sword! ”

Guo Ye's words carried a cold killing weapon, Luo Zili's legs were weak, and he had reached the point of blood mold with such an iron-faced and selfless Lord of Yama, but this was already an extrajudicial favor of this iron-faced military gate, if Guo Ye really broke this matter, the admiral and the governor above, if there is no major matter, he will definitely not be spared, losing his official position is a trivial matter, and he will lose his head if he doesn't make trouble!

Luo Zili said astringently: "Thank you for the kindness of Lord Junmen, before tomorrow morning, I will hand over all the silver taels that share the profits, but this silver taels are also very leisurely, and the big heads are ......."

Luo Zili's meaning Guo Ye is naturally very clear, most of the head has been taken away by Guo Zhiqiang, the admiral, and the governor, and now he really can't move them.

Guo Ye replied lightly: "You don't have to worry about anything else, you just have to hand over your greedy ink, and Baoding Town will not support corrupt officials!" As for how many vacancies there are, the military gate will naturally fill them for you, 20,000 taels of silver, I can still get it, as long as I can set up five new military camps, you don't have to worry about the rest, these five military camps, don't let me see a nest of waste, what Lao Tzu wants is a tiger wolf who howls when he fights, not a sheep! ”
