Chapter 113: Burden

Chen Xin finished reading the urgent letter, threw it on the table, and sneered: "I can't play enough to appease." Then he leisurely cocked his feet on the edge of the table and slowly swayed, while repeatedly looking at another letter from Wen Deng. The sea dog was adding charcoal fire to the side, squinting his eyes and secretly looking at Chen Xin.

"Dog, what are you doing with Brother Liu?"

"Mo Huaiwen and Wang Erya they brought in, and all the civil affairs were tossed in Mishen Mountain, I went to see Brother Liu in the afternoon, and he didn't even raise his head." After speaking, the sea dog smirked, "There is no smell on the civil affairs side, they are all busy and busy, and they don't take a vacation." I heard that since Wang Erya arrived at the tobacco factory, the number of unbilled pieces per rì has been increased a lot, and those who work for seven or eight hours per rì have to do it for five hours before they can earn the piecework fee, and if they can't finish it, they will deduct their wages. ”

Chen Xin smiled, Liu Minyou hated the manager of the R&D department the most when he was in the project team, and the manager forced them to work overtime, and they were very unhappy when they saw that they got off work on time, and now Wang Erya is also developing in that way.

"Then Brother Liu didn't ask about the cigarette factory?"

"I asked, I want Wang Erya to reduce the number of non-billable pieces, I heard from the civil affairs that Wang Erya grabbed the white at that time, and Liu Dajin didn't follow."

"Haha." Chen Xin smiled proudly, the cigarette factory used to be managed by Li Ranzhu, and the xìng was too gentle, Chen Xin himself was not too satisfied, but because Liu Min had a face, it was inconvenient to say more, and he now felt that Wang Erya was more suitable.

Seeing that Chen Xin was in a good mood, Hai Gouzi asked with a smile: "Da Jin, Fu Jin gave birth to a young master for you, when will you go back and see." ”

Chen Xin glanced at the letter in his hand, and really wanted to go back to see his son, but this battle was far from over, so he had to sigh and say, "Let's wait a minute, and go back to see it after the battle." ”

The sea dog smirked: "I also have to prepare some gifts for the eldest young master." ”

"You prepare, don't be expensive, just buy some clothes."

"But I don't know when I can go back, big brother, why don't we beat Li Jiucheng yet, don't be appeased."

Chen Xin lit a cigarette himself, squinted his eyes and puffed out the smoke before saying: "Lao Tzu has to let him live, appease, it's not so easy, I have already sent Zhang Dong to the west of Pingdu Prefecture to wait, Li Jiucheng won't even know the news." ”

At this time, there was a knock on the door, Chen Xin immediately put his feet down from the table, put on a Zhou Zheng look, and said loudly: "Come in." ”

The adjutant pushed the door in, and he reported loudly: "Yu Dajin, last night, the rebels conquered Pingdu Prefecture, and it was Zhou Shifa who reported that the north gate suddenly caught fire, and the rebels responded in the city. Zhizhou Chen heard about it, Zhou Tong Lu Hongyun, and the official Fang Zengwei were killed, and now the rebels have entered the city and are wantonly ......"

Chen Xin stood up with a sigh, "Where is Liu Pojun now?" ”

"has arrived outside Laizhou City, Geng Zhongming has been fighting with him from time to time, but he suddenly withdrew last night, and Liu Pojun failed to find out in time."

Chen Xin touched his chin and said: "Inform the members of the Central Military Department to prepare for the trip immediately, and Wang Bingzhong will accompany him." An hour later, we departed for Laizhou. The dog packed up his things, and after collecting it, he went with me to say goodbye to Lu Jianjun. ”

"Yes!"

After the adjutant agreed, he withdrew from the door, Chen Xin suddenly remembered something, stopped the adjutant and said: "Wang Mafu, you sent to the Mishenshan camp to inform Mr. Liu, just say that I will go to the front line to deal with Liu Pojun's affairs, and ask him to handle the affairs of Dengzhou with full authority, and the 3,000 headquarters will stay behind to assist Mr. Liu in maintaining the stability of Dengzhou." ”

As soon as the adjutant left, Hai Gouzi also began to help Chen Xin pack his things, although Chen Xin was the commander of the whole army, but when he went out of the army, his outfit was also very simple, that is, some clothes, short guns and secret books.

Chen Xin looked at this busy little brother and smiled: "Dog, did your daughter-in-law give birth to a baby for you?" ”

The sea dog smirked, "I just got married last year, and I don't have a baby yet, so my mother asked me to take it early last night." ”

"You have to be early, you only have a daughter-in-law, let Mr. Liu give you a few more concubines this time." ……

"Mr. Liu." Dong Yu licked his mouth, "How to deal with these seizures?" ”

Liu Minyou rubbed his reddened eyes, and he finally counted the main materials, a total of 1.6 million taels of silver, nearly 500,000 taels of cloth, 2,100 cattle, 1,900 horses, and jewelry was still under appraisal. Now comes the most troublesome seizure.

This camp is located at the highest point of the camp of Mishen Mountain, and thousands of women are squatting all over the camp, some of them are helping to give porridge, and the soldiers standing guard outside secretly glance at the corner of their eyes from time to time.

These women were all snatched by the rebels from Shandong, and before they could be transported into Dengzhou, they were conquered by the Wendeng camp and became one of the captures. This is not the first time this has happened to Camp Wenden.

Liu Minyou also has a headache, the tobacco factory is enough at the moment, and many tun households rely on the tobacco factory to survive. He could not have fired the women workers and hired them instead.

"If they want to go home, they will be paid the passage fee after the rebels are pacified, and if they don't want to go home, they will ......"

Dong Yu said with a smile: "These women have all been ruined, and besides, their homes have been destroyed by the rebels, where can they be found." ”

"This, this is too much, how to place it." Liu Min was a little embarrassed for a while.

A woman's voice said loudly behind her back: "If there is anything that is not easy to settle, sell it to those who are soldiers as concubines, and if you don't want to be a soldier, you can sell it to those tun households, and if you can't pay the silver with food, you can pay it off in three years." ”

The two turned their heads in amazement, it was that Wang Erya, she was busy cleaning up the jewelry, and she only slept for more than an hour in total, at this time her unkempt face was black, Dong Yu clapped her hands and said: "The king shopkeeper is high." ”

Liu Minyou said angrily to Dong Yu: "What a high opinion, these women are also in, how can they be used to buy and sell." ”

Dong Yu's head shrank and dodged, but Wang Erya didn't blush, stretched his hands and feet by himself, and said in his mouth: "If you don't sell it, who will raise it, the tobacco factory will add a maximum of 100 female workers, and the workshop only needs some women to make scale armor, and they all use the family members of the tun household." There is only a comprehensive store left, how many tunbao can be opened in Dengzhou this time, how can more than a thousand women be settled, how much food do they have to eat, and the salary of those soldiers is so high, it is appropriate to be a concubine. ”

Liu Minyou glared at her dissatisfiedly, "We are so thousand, what is the difference between those who sell thin horses." ”

Wang Erya said: "We originally thought that we could sell it to Qinglou, but we knew that Mr. Liu didn't agree, so I didn't say it." Anyway, our idea was given to Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu didn't agree, so he raised these women, anyway, the cigarette factory only accepts 100 yuan, I continue to order jewelry, Dong Yu brought 50 baked cakes to the old lady. ”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and entered the tent again, Liu Minyou said angrily to Dong Yu: "This kind of woman enters the ......"

Dong Yu said in a low voice: "Liu Dajin, you are wrong to treat her as a woman." After saying that, he hurriedly went to get the baked cakes.

Liu Min suppressed his breath, turned around and saw the black woman in front of him again, and frowned......

Three years later, the military headquarters of the Wendeng camp came to the outside of Pingdu Prefecture with the 1,000th headquarters, and the former army led by Liu Pojun was stationed on the west bank of the river in the northeast of the city, and all the rebels entered the city, and many rebel soldiers fled along the way, and there were roughly more than 4,000 battalion soldiers in the city, as well as some of their white spoon families.

Liu Pojun sat in the tent of the Chinese army dejectedly, he was ordered to lead the troops to pursue the rebels, and along the way, he carefully controlled his men to enter the horse, and did not let them let go of Geng Zhongming, who was already in a hurry. As soon as Chen Xin arrived, he held a meeting to criticize him.

Chen Xin changed the sternness of the meeting at this time, smiled and brought him a cup of tea, Liu Pojun stood up and took it, Chen Xin waved his hand to let him sit down.

"Pojun, you have been wronged this time."

Liu Pojun raised his head and said with some excitement: "Zhu Guobin said that his subordinates must have accepted bribes from the rebels, and his subordinates would rather die than rest with him." ”

"At the meeting, Zhu Guobin and they were a little more serious, they don't know the inside story, don't go to your heart, you still have to get along with these generals after the rì. You have to understand that you are not carrying this black pot for them, what we are doing is not fighting for official positions and money for ourselves, what we are doing is countless displaced and suffering people. Without the land wealth of Pingdu Prefecture and Huang County, how many people would have no food and clothing. ”

"Subordinate......" Liu Pojun shook his head and didn't say it, Chen Xin stood up and patted him on the shoulder, "On the scene, the official has to criticize you, but that's for the sake of seeing, what you did for my Wendeng Battalion, the official has all remembered it." ”

Liu Pojun raised his head, his eyes were a little red. Chen Xin looked at him and knew that he hadn't passed that hurdle yet, and continued in a sad and pitiful tone: "Don't think that only killing the enemy in battle formations is a hero, a real warrior, dare to face the bleak life, dare to face the dripping blood, and dare to carry the black cauldron as a last resort." ”

Liu Pojun was a little surprised, his mouth opened, and Chen Xin sighed: "What is the situation in Wendeng, you all know it, and you are bound everywhere. Fang Jinyao is in a difficult world, and the people are not bitter. We must be worthy of the imperial court and the people of Li, where does the people's interests come from? I had to move some stubborn fools in the middle who were rich and unkind, and I had to do something extraordinary. You are willing to do these things as an official, which one of Shangguan, the gentry, the Jiannu, and the rebel is a fuel-efficient lamp, why is the official unwilling to be a rich man who is too peaceful and rich, who is willing to walk among tigers, leopards and jackals, and be despised by countless cold eyes. Since I set my own strategy, I haven't been able to sleep well for a night for months, and every time I think of those Dengzhou people who died for no reason, I can't sleep all night, but this is not enough to save more people. At least the official can guarantee that nothing is for personal gain. This official promises that if you are a thousand years later, you will be given justice. Then the people will give a thumbs up and say, this is the real hero. Chen Xin originally just wanted to fool Liu Pojun, but when he said that Jing Ran was really touched later, his tone was unconsciously with Xiao Suo.

"My subordinates understood." Liu Pojun thought quietly for a moment after listening, and finally stood up and bit his lower lip to stand up, "Da Jin, you are really bitter, Xiao Jin's grievances are nothing, Da Jin still has something, even if you hand it over to your subordinates, your subordinates will definitely do a good job." ”

Chen Xin smiled and said: "It's good to break the army, let's break through Pingdu Prefecture with these two rì, and then you will continue to lead the troops to chase and suppress the army, and this time you will drive them to Liaohai, and you can't completely destroy them." ”

Liu Pojun: "......"
