The three provinces outside the Guanxi Province have set up generals, but there is no superintendent, and the regulations are completely different from those in the mainland, and the generals can cover the sky with one hand in the provinces under their jurisdiction, and they can be regarded as the real overseas emperors.

In office, he not only embezzled a large amount of silver from the reclamation of Rouran land, but also made a big fuss about the salary. In addition, outside the gate is the land of Jurchen Longxing, which was originally forbidden to open mines, but Zengqi began to relax the ban on mining, and then received silver taels from the mine owner, which was very wealthy.

In addition to these money, there is another sum of money, which is made up by Changshun, the general of Jilin, with him. The method of the two was the same as that of Feng Lu, the previous governor of Zhili, to take the blame for the Flying Tiger Regiment, withdraw the official money from the official treasury, and then claim that the Flying Tiger Regiment looted, so as to cover up the evidence.

As soon as the Tiele people attacked, the two decided that it was impossible to defeat the Tiele people, and they could not resist the attack of the Tiele people. You can't fight, you can't defend, but as a general, you lose your own defense, and you have a capital crime, and you can't succeed if you go. The two got together, discussed for a long time, and thought of a way to raise money to redeem it.

According to the idea of the two of them, they scraped together a large sum of silver and bribed Tieler's high-ranking officers and ministers in charge to redeem the lost land. The people can leave it alone, the property can be taken at will, and in the end, as long as the land is in their own hands, they can hand over the responsibility.

Because of this, the two adopted a strategy of non-resistance to the attack of the Tiele people, and also suppressed the loyal and righteous army that resisted the attack of the Tiele people, and even assisted the Tiele people to eliminate Liu Danzi and other troops.

However, Nikolai had a great appetite, not simply wanting to plunder, but wanting to incorporate the entire three provinces of Kanto, as well as the inner and outer Rouran, into the territory of Tiele and establish the so-called Yellow Tieler. This time, the two planned to go bankrupt, Changshun was arrested and imprisoned, and he never dared to bite out this money. Otherwise, not only will it not be beneficial to oneself, but it will also add to the guilt, and it will be cheaper and more profitable.

Xia Manjiang is Zengqi's friend of Qiangu, and he handles the affairs of money and grain, and he is very familiar with this matter. He shook his head and said, "I've been friends with Reion for twenty years, so I think I'm supposed to help him." But what he did this time really made me unable to agree, this 10 million money must not be cheap for nothing. To put it mildly, although the Fuso people are bad, they are only a temporary scourge and always have to leave. The Tiele people want to divide this territory as their own, and if they can't expel the Tiele people, they will harm them for a lifetime. As a citizen of big gold, I can't look at the inheritance of my ancestors and just fall into the hands of foreign ghosts, this time I want to risk my life and touch them. ”

Zhao Guanhou said: "Friend Xia, what you said is tough, but with all due respect. The stakes are high, and if you don't tell me the truth, I can't trust you. When the time comes, it is difficult to say who is to blame. You hate Tiele people, this is the public, but what is the selfishness? ”

"This ......" Xia Manjiang didn't want the other party to ask this, and he stammered for a while, not knowing what to say. Zhao Guanhou smiled, "In this world, there are people who forget their selfishness because of their duties, and I believe it." But if you are such a person, Friend Xia, Rui Wong will never let you know the whereabouts of the 10 million official funds, and the two of you will not be able to have a twenty-year relationship. So, you're either going to be honest with me today, or I'm going to have to stop talking to my brother and just have some tea with you. ”

Serving tea is to send off guests, Wang Wu hurriedly said: "Lao Xia, when is it, what are you hesitating about?" Just say how much you took out of it. Lord Zhao is also a friend on the scene, and he won't embarrass you, it's always my Wang Wu's old face, you have a basket, I'll pocket it for you. ”

Xia Manjiang couldn't refuse, so he had to grit his teeth, "Now that the matter is now, I can't take care of face." I'll say it. I have a grudge against the Tielerians. ”

When he was in Fengtian, he fell in love with a good friend, but a girl named Qiaoyun in Fengtian Pingkang Lane. This woman is from Suzhou, and her color and art are very good. Although Mukden is not as particular as the capital, there is no Qingyin small class. But the girls in the first-class team are not cheap. What's more, with his face, Qiaoyun can not accept other guests, just waiting for him alone, for Xia Manjiang, it is no different from the side room. He was also preparing to find a way to get a sum of money to help Qiaoyun redeem himself.

I didn't want Tiele to rush to the front, so he fled in a hurry, Xia Manjiang followed him to Xinmin, and he didn't have time to pick up people. When the Tiele people needed to negotiate, they specially invited Zeng Qi to go back, and Xia Manjiang returned to Fengtian with him, but he knew that when Fengtian was lost, a group of Cossack cavalry entered the city to find women everywhere, and Qiaoyun, who had a good face, was blocked in the house by more than a dozen Cossacks, and it was useless to let her kneel and beg for mercy. More than a dozen people took turns to sit in the village, and killed a weak female streamer in the south of the Yangtze River.

Hearing the bad news, Xia Manjiang was heartbroken, and naturally hated Tiele very much in his heart, and even more hated the Cossacks, if he wasn't a literati, he almost couldn't help but carry a knife to find Tiele people desperately. And Zeng Qi heard a little about this matter, but he didn't take it to heart, and he still devoted himself to making friends with Tiele, hoping that Xuezhang Shaoquan would be like a foreign power.

It wasn't until he met Wang Wu that Xia Manjiang had some hope, and Zhao Guanhou killed the Cossacks in Xuanhua, which was like avenging Qiaoyun for him. He also thought in his heart that this was a hero, and he was also a friend, who could help him. Bound.

Xia Manjiang said: "I don't share the sky with the Tiele people, and 10 million yuan must not fall into the hands of these dog thieves." Moreover, according to the regulations of the imperial court, the subordinates of the three provinces outside the Guanxi are a son of heaven and a courtier, and if they are added and retreated, my errand will be over. But I'm not reconciled, I still have a lot of talent that I can't show, if Lord Zhao can protect me in front of Hai Weng, I am willing to stay by Hai Weng's side and continue to do things for the court. ”

"What are you doing for?"

"Deal with the Tielers! Even if they are defeated this time, they will not be defeated and their entire army will be wiped out, and they will inevitably deal with them in the future. I stayed here because I wanted to use my talent to deal with them, and I couldn't let them comfortably eat the benefits outside the border. ”

"When you say that, I'm relieved. The eldest husband, wife, and son don't let it, if there is this hatred, if it were me, I would have killed dozens of Tiele people to vent my anger. Against them, there is nothing wrong with it, don't worry, this money, I will never let them fall into the hands of the Tiele people, as for your future, even if the chrysanthemum people don't use it, my Shandong, you have to use people. ”

"Thank you very much. Where the money is, I can say now. ”

When this official money was first deposited, it was handled by a small number of people, mainly soldiers who worked. And after the completion of these soldiers, they were sent to fight on the battlefield, deliberately sending a Jedi, and did not send reinforcements, as a result, thousands of soldiers were wiped out. is an insider, only three or five.

"His money is buried in Xinmin City, in the official school where he lives. At the beginning, he built an official school in Xinmin, which was called a new-style school, to prepare for the implementation of the new policy in the future. In fact, there are no teachers, let alone students, and the school is famous but not real. In order to help him hide the gold and silver, so that he could use it later. Now that he is under the protection of his personal team, he will never leave this official school, which is to protect his net worth. ”

"Is his team loyal to him?"

"It's natural, these squads are his dead soldiers, and they will do everything when they give an order. It was extremely well armed, with two revolvers and one Mini spear per person, and there were fifty men. All the firearms were purchased from the Tiele people, and all of them had kung fu, and it was difficult for three or five men to get close and deal with. If you want to catch it, this team will definitely not sit idly by, even if there is a will of the imperial court, you must prevent them from resisting the will. ”

When Zhao Guanhou got this information, he was overjoyed, at least he would not be caught off guard. He asked, "When will the Tiele people negotiate with Zengqi, and how many troops are there in the city now?" ”

"Tiele only has one office in the city, and there are not many soldiers, and the difference between the two is mainly that the Tiele people want to ask for money first, and they naturally refuse. He wants to be the governor of the three eastern provinces first, and then the two sides are still tug-of-war, and he himself is also undecided. After all, if he goes out at this step, it will be difficult for him to turn back. He doesn't have the qualifications and skills of Zhang Juexiang, and it is easy to kill himself by doing such a thing. ”

"Friend Xia, I know what you said, you go back first, and then I will think of a way, which will increase this. But it's always one, stabilize him first, and calm his heart. When the holy decree arrives, he will definitely catch it, and the money must not fall into the hands of the Tiele people. ”

Sending Xia Manjiang away, he invited Cao and Li to tell him what Xia Manjiang said. When Li Xiushan heard 10 million, his eyes lit up. "It's a lot of money, so much money in hand, it's enough for us to expand another rear army. If this merit is not established, it is inevitable that it will not be justified. simply led the soldiers in, more than 50 people on the left and right, all of them left bullets, and they didn't believe that the explosion would be uneven. ”

"Third brother, the bombing is flat, what about the aftermath? The holy decree didn't say to increase his head, we just blew up a Sheng Jing general, and the impression of an arrogant general can't escape. When the time comes, Master Du will make a joke with the palace guard, beware of him coming to kill the horse, our heads will not be stable. ”

In the officialdom, doing wrong things is far more serious than not doing things, and when he said this, Li Xiushan suddenly understood that he was still a little too impulsive when he heard the numbers. Killing a general, even Xu Juren is not enough identity, let alone himself.

Cao Zhongkun said: "This matter, only when the chrysanthemum man comes, tell him, and let him make an idea." ”

"When he takes ideas, most of them are doing soft work, and hard work may not dare to come. After all, now stabilize and increase his strength, so that he feels that it is better for us not to embarrass him. Recently, in Xinmin, I would like to remind the brothers to be smart and not to be too blind, in case they become more afraid, this matter will be troublesome. ”

Everyone discussed and decided, and a messenger beside Zeng Yun outside came to visit, and this person was Liang Buren's youngest son. He got Lao Tzu's letter, and he already knew that Zhao Guanhou was a great benefactor who kept the family, so he kowtowed and thanked him when they met. Then he said: "Zengqi will set up a banquet tonight to catch the wind for Lord Zhao, and our master is also invited." The lord asked me to come first to let me know the news, this banquet, you must not refuse. ”

Zhao Guanhou thought secretly: It seems that Zeng Yun is also a smart person, and he knows that he must stabilize and increase his head at this time, so he nodded, "I know it in my heart." ”

The messenger said: "My lord, you are kind to my family, I have to repay the kindness, I just said the words of officialdom, now I will tell you a few words about the villain himself." The villain was beside the prefect, and I heard some news, and the Tiele people had a staff officer, called the colonel of Ma and Daofu, and we didn't know what he was laughing at. Specializing in recruiting bandits outside our customs, there are people who eat big-nosed rice in the handmaidens and flower shoulders you fight. Those things are not things, and the bandits have been cleaned up by the official army, which is a matter of course, but they came to protest instead, saying that we are involved in military disputes. Be careful, the protests of the Tiele people are not just about not knowing when they might stab them. ”

"Thank you friends for your advice, I have my own measure, and I won't let them poke it so easily."

"It's good that you're measured. Also, although Xinmin is not wealthy, Zeng Futai is a capable person, and before the war was a big one, he was playing hard to pull food. In several warehouses in the city, grain was piled up. Therefore, our grain is enough to cover the expenses of the army, but the people who take care of the grain depot will not give it. Those people are goods who see money, and when I turn around, I will draw a line for the adults, and when they meet each other, they will have to put grain. But if I don't give one, I'm afraid that they will turn around and do evil. ”

"If you have a heart, I understand this matter, so I will ask your friend to bother more."

Cao Zhongkun slapped the table angrily, "This Xinmin Mansion is too deceitful, and the person in charge of the grain depot dares to ask for benefits, so I shot him." ”

"With big brother, it's easy for you to shoot a person, but it's hard to ask for food. Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, relying on the grain depot to eat the grain depot. I made a good relationship on the road, and it played a role here, and if it wasn't for his guidance, we might have suffered more. We have a lot of food, and it's okay to supply it in a short time, so what will happen in the future...... Someone has brought us food to eat. ”

Zhao Guanhou's words did not explain, and Cao Li and the others didn't think it through for a while, at this moment, the person who added him outside had arrived, but he was a small team of guards beside him, who was born tall and healthy, and at first glance he was indeed a powerful person. Invite Zhao Guanhou, Cao, and Li to the Sihai Building of Xinmin Mansion at 7 o'clock in the evening for a banquet.

Li Xiushan's eyes lit up, "What a chance, he sent it to the door himself, so he just took this opportunity to arrest him." ”

"Then we'll become locks and make a living by kidnapping tickets. To do things for Xu Juren, you have to take the pot yourself, don't do such a thing. When he arrives in Xinmin, he will have the next business with us, and it will not be too late for us to arrest people. This governor of the three eastern provinces always does it, not me, and he can't do it. Tonight, no matter what he does, we will accompany him, just as a social business, as for whether to take it or not, we will talk about it later. ”

In the past, packing up the clothes for Zhao Guanhou was the work of Su Hanzhi or Cuiyu, but now that the two of them are not there, they have to be done by Feng Xi. She has always been responsible for cooking, rarely doing this errand, the two are close, and when she helps Zhao Guanhou pack up her clothes, her face is flushed, as if she has been teased by Zhao Guanhou.

Sun Meiyao came in from outside, and coughed a few times when she saw the situation, and Zhao Guanhou took her hand, "What?" It's so decent, why did you open your voice? Do you want to find a Lang Zhong to take a look? Let's go, come with me to the table. ”

Sun Meiyao shook her hand, "He didn't invite me, don't go!" Besides, it's not good if you get there, even if you go to the wind and snow, I won't leave you a door today. ”

"Stay, I'll definitely be back today, and I won't spend the night outside."

After Sun Meiyao waited for him to leave, she sat there and muttered, "These people have to call for strips when they eat, and if they call for strips, maybe they will have to do something, this can't be done!" A pair of big black and white eyes began to turn. (To be continued.) )
