The Qing-Russian coalition army, the Russian army is in front, and the Qing army is behind.

However, Zhang Zhidong did not let the soldiers travel ten miles a day, after all, he quarreled with Muravyov and quarreled, and did not really turn his face. If you really want to be left far behind by the Russian army, it will not work.

The army advanced, and Zhang Zhidong and Yishan hurried together.

For a day's journey, the Qing army kept a distance of thirty miles from the Russian army.

In the evening, the army stopped to rest.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yishan and Zhang Zhidong sat opposite each other, talking about the next arrangements. At this time, a loud voice came from outside the camp tent: "General, Temuzhe asks to see." "Temuzhe was a warrior of Mongolia and a member of Yishan's command.

Zhang Zhidong avoided suspicion, got up and said goodbye: "Lord Wang, I am going to say goodbye." ”

Yishan waved his hand and said: "Mr. Zhang is the confidant of this general, and he gives advice for me, and he must participate in military affairs, so there is no need to avoid it." After that, Yishan said loudly: "Come in and talk!" ”

The curtain of the tent door was raised, and Temuzhe strode in.

The people who followed Temuzhe were as many as eleven generals.

When these people came in, they fell to their knees. Seeing this, Yishan was stunned, and a strange expression appeared on his face, which one is this! For a while, Yishan's heart was up and down, and it was very unpleasant. Zhang Zhidong sat aside, and after seeing this scene, a flash of brilliance flashed in his eyes.

"Ask the general to call the shots!"

Temuzhe slammed his head on the ground and begged for help again and again.

Zhang Zhidong opened his mouth and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, you get up and speak first. Okay, all of you suddenly knelt down and begged the general to call the shots, so that the general didn't know what was going on. Well, let's make the reason clear first. You say, don't you? Zhang Zhidong observed the changes in the army every day, and when these people came, he had already guessed what was going on in his heart.

Yishan returned to normal, waved his hand and said: "Get up, a group of big men, they are all the main generals in the army, what kind of body does it become when they kneel on the ground, and they are not afraid of being laughed at." Temuzhe, you make things clear. ”

"Yes!"

Everyone stood up and stood respectfully.

Temuzhe opened his mouth and said, "General, in the past two days, soldiers have left the barracks without permission every day. In the army, the people's hearts are unstable, and the soldiers are panicked! ”

"What's going on?" When Yishan heard this, he was even more confused, and he couldn't figure out what Temuzhe was talking about. Yishan was also a little annoyed in his heart, staring at Temuzhe, his eyes were as sharp as knives, and he said in a deep voice: "What the hell is going on, why did some soldiers leave the barracks?" Be careful and make it clear, or Ben will punish you. ”

Temuzhe's expression was serious, and he said 1510: "The general has issued an order to borrow money in the army, and each soldier must borrow 40 taels of silver, and the general rule in the army is more than 100 taels of silver, and the total number of 1,000 is more...... The soldiers can't afford to borrow money like this! Even if you take out all the money, you can't make it up. ”

"Forty taels of silver for one person, that's too much! If it was less than ten taels of silver or less than twenty taels of silver, the brothers could still find a way to make it up, but now it is forty taels of silver, and no one can stand it! ”

Temu Zhe said loudly: "Zhang Bu is extremely greedy, and the brothers were forced by Zhang Bu to have no choice, which caused some soldiers to choose to escape. Nowadays, the people in the army are panicking, and if this trend is not stopped, the army will collapse. Even, there will be soldiers who will rebel, please think twice. ”

"Please think twice, General!"

The generals in the camp were all sad and looked very lost.

After Zhang Zhidong heard this, his face showed surprise.

According to Zhang Zhidong's understanding, thirty taels of silver was enough to cause a commotion and cause the soldiers in the army to resist, so Zhang Zhidong handed over the hot potato to Zhang Bu. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, it became forty taels of silver, and the increase was too large.

Of course, Zhang Zhidong is naturally willing to see this meeting, because the more he is raised, the greater the pressure on the soldiers, and the more beneficial it will be to him. Zhang Zhidong looked at Yishan's expression, and Yishan clearly knew the situation.

It seems that Zhang Bu and Yishan have another discussion.

Yishan didn't speak, Zhang Zhidong took the words and said, "Don't worry, adults, give the general a little time to think about it." Please go back and wait. Half an hour later, the general gave you a result, what do you think? ”

Yishan's heart was in a mess, and after listening to Zhang Zhidong's words, he immediately said: "You go back for the time being, and I will give you an answer in half an hour." ”

Temuzhe led the people away, and Zhang Zhidong said: "General, the set is thirty taels of silver, how did it become forty taels?" ”

Yishan had a bitter expression on his face, and said helplessly: "Sir, it's all my fault for being greedy." At first, after the chapter was carried out, he collected a lot of money, but then he came to me alone and said that it could be raised to forty taels of silver, and even if the soldiers could not take it out, they could borrow it from the military salary temporarily. I thought about it and agreed. Where to know, there will be problems. Alas, a step away! ”

Zhang Zhidong said in his heart that this was not just a stupid trick, it was simply that only a fool would do this.

Yishan's expression was solemn and he asked, "Sir, Junxin**, what do you say I should do?" ”

Zhang Zhidong already had a solution in his heart, and said unhurriedly: "First of all, the money must be lowered, I think it is most appropriate to halve it, and it will become twenty taels of silver." Although the money collected is less, at least it can be collected. However, just to reduce the money, I'm afraid there are also difficulties, because the chapter cloth is still there. As long as Zhang Bu is alive, it will be difficult to stabilize the morale of the army, and the generals in the army will not be convinced. Look at the eyes of the generals, I can't wait to swallow the chapter cloth, this thing is not easy to do! ”

Yishan sat slumped on the ground, his expression uncertain.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhidong continued: "General, forgive me for being rude. Now the only way is to give Zhang Bu death, and then announce the soldiers in the army, saying that Zhang Bu tampered with the general's order without authorization, indicating that the general set a temporary loan of twenty taels of silver, not forty taels of silver. In this way, Zhang Bu can bear the responsibility for the crime, so that the anger in the hearts of the soldiers can have a place to vent, otherwise the soldiers in the army will be unstable, which will not be conducive to our next battle! ”

Yishan kept scratching his head, irritable.

Unexpectedly, it turned into such a thing in the blink of an eye.

"I want to think, I want to think!" Yishan muttered to himself, his brows furrowed into a Sichuan character.

Zhang Zhidong said solemnly: "General, when you are decided, you will continue to suffer from it. The general is a person who does great things, and if he sticks to this small thing, this battle may be difficult. In order to encircle the soldiers, in order to stabilize the generals in the army. The first was to kill Zhang Bu, and the second was to tell the soldiers to borrow them twenty taels of silver, and to pay them back thirty taels of silver in the future. As for those who had borrowed forty denarii, when they had won the battle, they were given sixty denarii. ”

Under the persuasion of Zhang Zhidong, Yishan began to move. In the end, Yishan chose to protect himself, chose the blueprint drawn by Zhang Zhidong for him, and nodded: "Give death to Zhangbu, you go in person." ”

Zhang Zhidong walked out of the tent, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

ps: the third shift; Continuing on.
