Chapter Seventy-Seven: Greed Arises

In fact, Wu Wei has always had doubts, the place where the "two kings" are raging is close to the town of Yansui Town, which is known as one of the military towns of the nine sides, how to say that there are tens of thousands of elite border troops, according to common sense, it will not let the liukou sit big. He posted on the Internet and asked about the historical power, only to know that the defense area of Yansui Town in the Ming Dynasty was roughly equivalent to Yan'an Mansion, with three guards under the jurisdiction of Yulin, Yan'an, and Suide, with a total strength of more than 30,000 people. However, it was already a matter of the Jiajing period, since the beginning of the Wanli Dynasty, the government of Rong has gradually deteriorated, and the soldiers have generally become tenants of the generals, and the generals are large and small landlords. Fortunately, the trap was not successful, although it was claimed to be 100,000, but the large and small were divided into dozens of shares, and the largest was only 2 or 3,000 people, and they were unable to knock on the customs, so the two sides were generally safe. Of course, the side merit still has to be established, otherwise how can the generals be promoted and make a fortune? This problem is easier to solve, don't the Mongol tribes often fight each other, and people will die when they fight, and they spend money to buy the first rank, and they don't even have to spend money, just give those Tartars some swords, guns, bows and arrows that have been eliminated from the armory, anyway, as long as they report a few percent more losses, they will have everything. The head of the captives is still very valuable, second only to the Jianyu, and the first level can get a reward of 30 taels of silver, which can be done!

It's just that promotion and wealth are the business of the chiefs, and it has nothing to do with ordinary soldiers, now, the court has been in arrears for more than ten months, and the soldiers can only fill their hunger with chaff porridge, and the cold winter has come, and most of the people are not fully clothed, which can really be described as hungry and cold, and miserable. Forced to the extreme, some people even secretly pawned their own bows, arrows, guns and knives, how can such an army still maintain its combat effectiveness? This is also one of the reasons why the "two kings" can wreak havoc for years, attack states and counties, and enter a no-man's land.

Liu Baihu's recent life is really moisturized, he is a hereditary military position, since his grandfather has served in this bitter cold land in northern Shaanxi, there are only more than 100 soldiers under his command, dozens of acres of thin land. There has been a drought in northern Shaanxi for many years, and his land has naturally suffered from it, and the output is small, and he has to feed more than a dozen families. It's just that in the past six months, Ansai has become prosperous under the governance of Wu Dianshi, and merchants from all walks of life have gathered, seeing that the silver traded every day is like flowing water! Of course, his boss is not willing to be lonely, the military camp is close to the wharf, and the location is good, so he has simply converted it into a shop and rented it out to merchants, and a month's rental income is better than a year's empty salary for him! And there are many soldiers under him, where do you need to plant any land, he took a fancy to the honeycomb coal project, and said a little about Wu Dianshi, and promised 3 shares to go out, and this thing was done! As a result, the honeycomb coal produced by Liu Ji is continuously supplied to the hands of the majority of users every day, and the silver of Baihuahua is naturally accepted by Lord Liu.

Originally, he had been poor for several lifetimes, but it was a good time to catch up, these days Liu Baihu has been desperately making money, busy making up for the famine that fell in the past few years, but he never expected that seeing that the good days had just passed, this dog's rogue came, I heard that there are 100,000 people under this "two kings", and the target is Ansai County, where he is located! Liu Baihu said in his heart that he was not afraid that it was fake, but after thinking about it, he relaxed, anyway, the sky fell and there was a tall one on top, he was just a small hundred, what was the use of being anxious, did he want his own hundred people to resist the 100,000 army?

He thought it was not bad, because someone was more anxious than him, the commander of the Yan'an Acropolis made Wang Zhen Wang very sad now, Yulin and Fugu fell, and the local Wei commander was condemned and deprived of his post, I don't know how many favors and how much silver it will cost to recover! I heard that the current bastard market, a guard commander has risen to 6,000 taels! Yan'anwei is a chore, no more than a thousand taels of silver a year, grandma's, 6 years in vain! Moreover, because Lord Du Wenhuan, the chief soldier of Yansui, was impeached by the imperial history, in order to keep his official position, he strictly ordered that all localities should not play with the enemy and raise cowards, and those who violated the order were severely punished, and he didn't hit the muzzle of the gun and became the chicken used to scare the monkeys! Cursing the rogues who couldn't get along with him, the king commanded the envoy to lead an army of 3,000 into Ansai with resentment.

Having said that, Wu Wei was invited into the county government early in the morning, and as soon as he entered the back office, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was solemn, and there were many more people in the lobby in addition to Li County. I saw a well-dressed general sitting on the main seat of the hall, with a strong figure and a face full of meat, and when he saw Wu Wei coming in, he glanced at him and was indifferent. Wu Wei has been in this era for a long time, and he knows that what he is wearing is a three-grade military attache uniform, although the Ming Dynasty is a noble and martial artist, but this person's grade is much higher than Li County's order, and at this moment he is here to defend Ansai, so Li County's order is very polite to him, and let him sit on the top. This person also saw Wu Wei's costume color, and saw that although it was a civil official costume, the color was azure, and there was not even a complement on it.

Seeing Wu Wei coming in, Li Xianling hurriedly got up to greet him, and said, "Weiwen, sit here, this is Lord Wang Zhen, the commander of Yan'an Wei." He turned his head and said to Wang Zhen: "This is the classic history of this county that I just mentioned, Wu Wei, the chief soldier of the Ansai regiment. Wang Zhen heard Wu Wei's name, his expression moved slightly, he smiled on his face, and arched his hand: "Long admiration, long admiration." There were also a few generals sitting in the room, and when they heard Wu Wei's name, they were also sensational, and they talked in a low voice. Seeing this, Wu Wei hurriedly bowed down and said, "Xiaguan Wu Wei, I have seen Lord Wang." While speaking, a county official had already moved a stool and placed it under the Li County Order and Sun Jiaoyu, Wu Wei made a group to everyone before he sat down, and Sun Jiaoyu smiled and nodded to him.

Wu Wei and Wang Zhen met for the first time today, he had never heard of this Lord Wang, but others had heard of him. It turned out that Wang Zhen and Wang Qi were cousins in Yan'an Prefecture, and the brothers were born in the local clan of Yan'an, one scholar and one martial artist, and they had considerable power on the ground in Yan'an. Some time ago, Wang Zhen's nephew, Wang Ze, the son of Wang Tongzhi, mentioned this Wu Wei to him, and the two seemed to have a quarrel about something. Although Wang Zhen is not a good type, but he will not make a big deal for a child, but after inquiring at will, he was surprised, it turned out that this person was Tao Zhu Yidun and the like, in a short period of time, a small county in Ansai was built into a rich party, with many industries under his name, and then inquired about Wu Wei did not have any family background, but was born in Liaodong, his family was broken and exiled, and he was alone here. This time, he also intended to beat Wu Wei, if he knew and was interested, he would obediently offer the industry with both hands, and let him continue to be the chief soldier of this regiment training, if he didn't know each other, he couldn't report his death to bandits! It's just that I heard that the prefect Zhang Bangyan seems to value this person very much, but it's a little tricky, but after thinking about it, it's just that when the time comes, it's just that he will share more of it, and he knows the details of this old thing very well, and he is not a good official who is as clear as water and as cheap as a mirror, so I don't believe that he will not be moved when he sees the white flowers and silver at that time!

Make up for a change on August 30th, ask for a collection, ask for a recommendation, ask for a reward, Wuchang fish thank you!
