Two days later, after more than a dozen officers who had received silver tickets from the imperial court envoys were cleared out of the Tiger and Leopard Army, these people finally stopped this kind of bribery that not only made no sense, but also gave Wei Zhengbai a large number of silver tickets.

Looking at the more than 20,000 taels of silver tickets sent by Wang Feng in his hand, Wei Zheng said with a smile on his face: "Captain Wang, a full 25,000 taels of silver, this is really an unexpected gain." I really didn't expect that a small action by these people would give our Haw Par Army a month's salary for nothing. If these people hadn't been aware of it, I would have hoped that they would continue this bribery campaign and bring us more pay. “

Zhou Shuyuan, who was beside him, followed up and reported......

"General, the conspiracy of these people to spy on our firearms workshop has also been successfully defused by us. For a few days, not a single person has managed to get out of our mushroom abundance, let alone enter our firearms workshop in the mountains, and peek into our new muskets. “

"Good job...... Wei Zheng affirmed loudly.

Then, he continued to instruct Zhou Shuyuan: "Strategist, the firearms workshop is the foundation for our Haw Par Army to find and grow in the future, so we must strengthen the safety of the firearms workshop." In the future, when we have our own territory, we must form a guard force to defend the firearms workshops and other important places. “

"Yes, General......"

Seeing Wei Zheng with a satisfied face in front of him, Zhou Shuyuan, who had thought for a short time, slowly showed a trace of shame on his face. said to Wei Zheng: "General, when I received the holy decree, I also said that you were a little too cautious. Now it seems that there is nothing wrong with your caution, but I was careless. As you say. Today's imperial court has been eroded to the point of being out of control. The Tartars have all reached their doorstep, and they are still fighting among themselves. The struggle for power and profit chilled the front-line soldiers. ”

Zhou Shuyuan's attitude changed for Wei Zheng. It is more valuable than more than 20,000 taels of silver tickets in his hand.

Therefore, as soon as Zhou Shuyuan's words were finished, Wei Zheng, who was smiling, spoke: "Strategist, you don't have to blame yourself. Besides, these small actions of the imperial court not only did not make us lose anything, but also gave us more than 20,000 taels of silver tickets in vain. Really speaking, it's our Haw Par Army that has earned it. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Zheng seemed to think of something, and admonished the few subordinates in front of him who were the most trusted in the Tiger and Leopard Army: "Brothers. I hope you can understand a truth about this. Our future is not in the imperial court, nor can we pin our hopes on the imperial court. If we want to have a good future, we must rely on our own efforts. ”

"Therefore, in the future development of our Haw Par Army, what we can trust is our own subordinates. Anyone else, including the imperial court, we must be vigilant and guarded......"

"You know, in this troubled world. It is very likely that a small mistake will cause our brothers to fall into the abyss, or even lose their own lives. ”

Several people nodded deeply and replied: "Please rest assured, general, after this lesson, we will definitely remember." ”

Suddenly. A report broke the atmosphere of the room. One of the captains in charge of receiving the imperial envoys hurriedly walked in.

After seeing Wei Zheng, he reported loudly: "General, the Qin messenger from the imperial court has asked us to rush all the officers above the captain of the whole army to the general's mansion early tomorrow morning. He has a military order from the chief officer of Zunhua to announce to all of us...."

"Announcing the military order, and calling all the officers of our Haw Par Army... What do they mean. What did you do earlier, why did you read the decree to us in the first place? No, the general order has been announced..."Wang Feng asked rhetorically with a puzzled face.

Zhou Shuyuan's brows were also furrowed, and he said to Wei Zheng: "General, there must be something wrong here..."

"You see, as soon as we dismantled their two plots, these people said that they would announce to us the military order of the chief officer of Zunhua, and that they would do so in front of everyone. When the time comes, if they embarrass us in front of the soldiers and under the banner of the imperial court when they read the order, what will we do? ”

"I guess this must be another conspiracy of these people..."

Obviously, Zhou Shuyuan, who had suffered a loss, had slowly become cautious about the imperial court and the people who came to read the holy decree. With a hint of suspicion, he continued to analyze Wei Zheng: "In order to prevent being deceived, I think we must be prepared. ”

Analyzing the two of them, Wei Zheng nodded affirmatively. Then, he spoke: "With my understanding of the imperial court and these people, the reading of the military order tomorrow morning must be another conspiracy that they are unwilling to fail. ”

"Of course, as I said earlier, we have to be cautious in everything we do for the sake of the future of our Haw Par Army. Whether it is a conspiracy of these people or not, we must guard against it. ”

After speaking, Wei Zheng, who had already made a decision in his heart, opened his mouth and ordered: "You go back immediately to tell Sù Qincha, and let him come over on time tomorrow morning..."

Early the next morning, after the imperial court Qincha hurriedly walked into the general's mansion with more than a dozen people, except for Wei Zheng and Zhou Shuyuan, he did not see any other officers of the Tiger and Leopard Army.

Facing the frowning Qincha, Wei Zheng spoke first: "Please forgive me, Lord Qincha, I just got the news that the Tartars in Zunhua City have shown signs of attacking my Mushroom Valley again. In order to prevent the Tartars from attacking the mushroom valley and harming the adults, I can only order the officers at all levels to return to their units immediately and prepare to meet the enemy..."

The imperial court Qincha, who was about to play a majestic role in front of Wei Zheng just now, directly swallowed back the words that were about to be said after hearing the word Tartar. His face, which was still red just now, turned pale in an instant as if he was frightened.

Then, with a frightened face, he stammered to Wei Zheng and asked, "Lord Wei... Tartars, Tartars are really going to attack Mushroom Valley again..."

"I can't say....Dolgon, who occupies Zunhua, is a man who will be avenged, and we still have his own brother in our hands. Even if he has just lost to us once, it is possible to send troops to us again to take revenge......" Wei Zheng replied vaguely.

Then, he asked the Qincha in front of him: "Lord Qincha, I don't know what military order you brought to the Tiger and Leopard Army, just give it to me." ”

At this moment, Qin Cha, who had been frightened by the Tartar in Wei Zheng's mouth, didn't care whether his conspiracy could be achieved.

Now, he had only one thought in his mind, to immediately finish reading the military order and leave the mushroom valley, so as not to be surrounded by the Tartars in the mushroom valley.

Therefore, under Wei Zheng's gaze, Qin Cha spoke without thinking about it. (To be continued......)
