Chapter 21 Convincing people with virtue
Compared with the scale of more than a dozen battalions of the Dengzhou battalion, Jimo is much smaller, there is only one coastal defense battalion, and there are more than 1,000 people on the books.
When they entered Jimo City, everyone found out that something was wrong, in this small county town, there were wandering battalion soldiers everywhere, they were in groups of three or five, or laughing and playing, and a few shops saw these soldiers from a distance, flying like a good door panel, and closed the door.
Seeing Yang Bo's group of strictly disciplined soldiers entering the city, the people in the county were all taken aback, and they all inquired that this was the people of the imperial court?
Huang Daolin saw that Yang Bo's face was full of displeasure, and he also said hatefully, "These battalion soldiers were originally recruited, as long as they are the duty people who can survive, how can they let their children and grandchildren serve as soldiers and eat food?" Many of these battalion soldiers are usually lazy and lazy, and they are abducted and deceived, and with the connivance of the superiors, they are now no different from bandits? ”
As if to confirm his words, a person suddenly turned out of a small alley and crashed into the people of the walking sin camp.
The team walking on the left was the recruit company, these people had not been in Yang Bo for a long time, and they were not dead hearted, but several recruits were hit by that person, and the formation was almost chaotic.
By the time a platoon commander shouted, the battalion soldier was already less than ten steps away from Yang Bo when he was caught, and several of Yang Bo's personal guards had even drawn their knives, ready to kill this uninvited guest who had collided with the adults on the spot.
Zhao Long, the commander of the recruit company, saw Yang Bo's cold eyes, and felt that his face was dull, and he grabbed the battalion soldier in the face with a punch, and hit the man with a mouthful of blood on his back......
An instructor hurriedly ran to Yang Bo and said with a face full of shame: "My lord forgives my sins, but we are not strict in discipline."
Yang Bo ignored him and beckoned to Zhao Long, "You come here"
Zhao Long hurriedly ran over to see where the instructor was cold, and he didn't dare to speak.
"Go and ask what's going on"
Seeing that the instructor was still stunned, Yang Bo waved his hand: "You don't have to be an instructor, go to the Military Discipline Department to report yourself"
Yang Bo has always been generous to the Sin Military Battalion, and the harsh discipline of the salt guard team cannot be applied to them, but what happened today can only show that this instructor is incompetent.
Zhao Long was still asking the battalion soldiers, in the small alley, a few people walked out with an old woman with a small foot, their faces were full of anger, and when they saw the big scene outside, they didn't know how to find it for a while.
"That's it!"
The old woman covered her bloody ears with one hand, and pointed at the battalion soldier and scolded, "This dog thief, it doesn't count if he robbed the old woman's gold earrings, and ripped off half of the old woman's ear!" ”
In fact, as soon as this old woman appeared, Yang Bo already understood what was happening, Zhao Long broke the hand of the battalion soldier, and sure enough, he was holding a small, bloodshot half of the gold earring.
"Take ten taels of silver to this mother-in-law, it is considered the cost of soup and medicine" Yang Bo has seen similar scenes in his later generations, and he is far less angry than everyone else.
"Kindness of Adults"
The few people who were holding the old woman knelt down and kowtowed to Yang Bo
The old woman was indignant, but when she saw that Yang Bo gave a lot of money, and there was a team of officers and soldiers accompanying her, she didn't dare to say much.
"My lord? What should I do with this person? The Recruit Company Disciplinary Officer asked softly
"Tie it up and take it away first, and settle the account together later" Yang Bo didn't bother to pay attention to the deliberate black hand of the several criminal battalions, and beat the battalion soldiers to scream again and again.
"Where is the Haiphong battalion stationed?" Yang Bo asked Huang Daolin
"The coastal defense battalion is stationed in Yingshang Village, eight miles north of the city, and only the city guard battalion is responsible for patrolling public order in the city, and the coastal defense battalion must not enter unless called."
Huang Daolin said a little stupidly: "But that was also from the past"
Seeing that he had arrived at the destination, Huang Daolin said goodbye to Yang Bo and went to the official office to report.
Zhou Guangbi's garrison in the south of the city, the previous battalion commander was called the garrison, and the garrison mansion has been used, but Yang Bo was startled when he came to the garrison mansion, the door of the mansion was wide open, and there were a lot of battalion soldiers inside and outside, some of them sat on the ground, some of them were around the game, and Yang Bo even saw a few guys smoking.
During the Jiajing period, there was tobacco brought back from the south, and during the Wanli period, the "Book of Dew" written by Yao Lu recorded the origin of tobacco in detail, "Luzon produces a grass, and it is called Danba mushroom." Burning one end with fire, one end to the mouth, the smoke from the pipe into the throat, can make people drunk, and can dispel miasma. Some people brought Zhangzhou to plant it, but now it is more than Luzon, and it is included in its national sale. ”
Yang Bo doesn't smoke and has little interest in growing tobacco, otherwise Maojiatun will have another way to make money.
These people were making a lot of noise, but they were all blocked at the gate of the garrison mansion.
Seeing a large number of soldiers pouring in, these battalion soldiers were a little panicked in their hearts, and subconsciously got out of the way, but they were not very afraid, they gathered on the side and pointed, and a leader wanted to come over to talk to Yang Bo, but he was separated by the criminal camp.
"My lord is the soldier and horse along the way? We have come to beg for money, and there is nothing to rude the chief, so that the adults may know that the camp has not been handed out a penny of silver for several months, and that we have a family to support, so we have no choice but to besiege the garrison ......"
When the man saw that he couldn't squeeze in, and saw that the soldiers of the sin camp were pushing a brother dressed in the camp, he felt more and more bad in his heart, and he didn't dare to move, so he could only shout from afar.
Yang Bo ignored this person, and said to Han Yan'er in a low voice: "Let Zhao Long lead a company to guard the official offices at the gates of the official offices, and the old cannon will lead people to arrest all these battalion soldiers, you tell him, if one of them runs away, let him come to see me with his head."
Seeing Han Yan'er's face change, Yang Bo added: "If there is resistance, don't be killed"
As he spoke, Yang Bo tidied up the official uniform on his body, and then Shi Shiran raised his hand to pat the inner door......
When Yang Bo walked into the inner office, there were already killing shouts outside, and a few family members who were hiding in the inner office to guard saw Yang Bo arrive with a few personal guards, all of them were very happy, and they followed Zhou Guangbi to come here, and they were also aggrieved for a long time.
"Your Excellency has finally arrived!"
A person ran up and saluted Yang Bo affectionately
Yang Bo hurriedly helped him up, this person had taken the boat side by side with him in Maojiatun, and he had also smashed the Wenxiang Sect with the sin military camp, and Zhou Guangbi's family named Xiaoliu.
"Little Liu, how do you protect adults? Even the garrison is surrounded by people, what about the boss, have you ever been frightened? "Yang Bo has never had a problem with these people, and these people are not afraid of him.
Xiao Liu pointed inside with some embarrassment, signaling Yang Bo that this was Zhou Guangbi's order, and he was not good at saying bad things behind the back of adults.
Yang Bo laughed, patted Xiao Liu's shoulder, and entered to see Zhou Guangbi by himself.
"Is it time to get around?" A slightly majestic voice sounded, which one is it not Zhou Guangbi?
Yang Bo opened the curtain with a smile and walked in, Zhou Guangbi was sitting on a Taishi chair, reading a book, and there was a cup of steaming tea on the side.
"Boss, Yang Bo is late, I hope the boss will forgive me" Yang Bo gave Zhou Guangbi a salute according to the rules of officialdom.
"Excuse me"
Zhou Guangbi raised his head and looked at Yang Bo, and there was no joy or anger on his face, "If you don't come again, the old man will give these people to eat."
"The boss is calm and calm, he still reads and drinks tea under the eyes of the enemy, the boss's state of mind, tsk, his subordinates can't do it" Yang Bo patted the old boss's ass against his will.
"! I'm not here drinking tea and reading books, so why don't I go out and talk to them and fart? Zhou Guangbi scolded with a smile and beckoned to Yang Bo
Yang Bo knew that he was going to get down to business, so he found a place to sit down.
"Since the old man took office, these battalion soldiers have come over every time to make noise, these days have become more and more rampant, even the subordinates say that they often buy and can't go out, if they come a few days late, the old man will starve to death in the garrison mansion" Zhou Guangbi said with a stomach full of grievances.
"It's not a matter of time that the imperial court is short of battalion salaries, why did the old man take office, and these people came to block the door?" Yang Bo asked
"It's all about idleness, isn't it!"
Zhou Guangbi sighed: "This Jimo battalion has always been the commander of the Aoshanwei command post, either the palm print commander or the commander of the affairs, never fell into the hands of others, although the Jimo camp does not have a big oil and water, but every year to eat empty salary, set up cards to collect rent, there are thousands of taels of silver in the bag, and now suddenly Anton Wei transferred an old man to grab this general position, how can he not make those people red?" ”
Yang Bo asked, "How much is the monthly salary of this battalion?" ”
Zhou Guangbi glanced at Yang Bo: "You are also the chief officer of the camp, and you don't even know how much money you get?" Wouldn't it be a joke to say it? Ma Jun's monthly salary is one or two five, one stone of rice, one or two of infantry soldiers, and five buckets of rice in his true color......"
"How long has Jimo Camp been in arrears?" Yang Bo asked again
"Originally, it was for nine months a year, but the old man heard that these battalion soldiers owed more than half a year, and the old man didn't want to pay attention to the bad things in the past, but he didn't expect to be staring at me" Zhou Guangbi is a little angry, these are the deficits left by his predecessor, what does he make up for? He still has three concubines to raise.
Yang Bo smiled when he heard this: "Boss, you are covered by Lord Yan on top, and there is a small one to support you below, what are you afraid of him?" ”
Zhou Guangbi glanced at Yang Bo: "I'm afraid I don't know yet, right?" Jimo has five surnames: Lu, Li, Zhou, Yang, and Huang, and the hereditary commander of Ao Shanwei, Lu Zhiliang, heard that there is a family in the preparation of the Japanese capital division, and no one dares to compete with him for this general position, alas, the old man has just come, and the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake......"
Yang Bo sneered: "Then the city is still occupied by Kong Youde, I don't know if Lord Lu's family is dead or alive, and those adults still have the heart to take care of this side?" I'll take care of that here."
Zhou Guangbi was a little worried: "How are you going to deal with it?" ”
"Don't you know how to be idle?"
Yang Bo laughed loudly: "I have always liked to convince people with virtue"
Before Zhou Guangbi could answer, a scream suddenly sounded outside the door,
Then, there was a knock on the inner door, as if someone was panicking and trying to run in to escape, followed by another scream......
"Hmm, convince people with virtue? I like it," Zhou Guangbi nodded.
