"My subordinates meet your lordship."

"General He doesn't need to be polite, you and I will be colleagues in the future, and we will work together to protect the border passes, but we can't live up to the trust of the imperial court."

He Yaowu, who was white and chubby, came to visit soon, and his movements were fast, and when he came to visit, Zheng Xunrui had only been in Yansui Town for five days.

He Yaowu is the chief soldier of Yulin, the commander of the Yulin capital, the military attache of Zheng Erpin, who commands the entire Yulin border pass of the guard camp fort, and is the highest military commander of Yulin Town, but although he is the military attache of Zheng Erpin, he still has to claim to be subordinate when he sees Zheng Xunrui, the governor of Yansui, the left of the Imperial Court of the Fourth Grade, because the governor of Yansui is in charge of all matters, including people's livelihood and military aspects, and the governor of Yansui is also in charge of all matters in Qingyang Mansion and Yan'an Mansion.

The status of the military attache of the Ming Dynasty was not high, far lower than that of the civil official, which is why Yuan Chonghuan was able to directly kill Mao Wenlong, the military attache of Zhengyipin.

Seeing the white and chubby He Yaowu, Zheng Xunrui felt a little disgusted in his heart, the conditions in Yulin Town are so difficult, if you worry about the affairs of the border town, how can you grow very fat, you have been in Yan'an Mansion for a year, not only did you not gain weight, but lost a lot of weight, not to mention the Yulin General He Yaowu, you must know that Yulin Wei is not only responsible for guarding the border pass, but also dispatches some sergeants to participate in the battle to exterminate the Liukou.

He Yaowu had a smile on his face, but there was something hidden behind the smile, which was a trace of disdain, probably because he felt that the governor of Yansui in front of him was too young, although he was said to be the champion of the palace examination, and his ability was undoubted, but after all, he was too young and had not been in the officialdom for a long time, so he could never be compared with the former governor of Yansui, Hong Chengchou.

Of course, Zheng Xunrui can capture such information, he won't care, the more the other party looks down on him, the better he will do a lot of things, and when the other party is not paying attention, he will suddenly attack, so that the other party has no time to prepare.

"The adults came to Yulin Town, and the subordinates were relieved, the subordinates were really unsustainable, the total number of border troops in Yulin Town reached 150,000, and they were looking for subordinates sooner or later, asking for money and food, and the subordinates really couldn't think of a way, and the subordinates wrote a lot of memoranda to the court and the Ministry of War, and even wrote a recital to Lord Wu, but they were all sunk in the sea, and the 150,000 sergeants, as well as their families, were waiting for the military salary to live."

"General He doesn't have to worry, this official has just taken office as the governor of Yansui, and he doesn't understand the situation yet, he must rely on General He, the importance of this Yulin border town, this official is very clear, if the official remembers well, He Zongbing is here during the Apocalypse, it can be said that he is familiar with all the situations."

"Don't dare, although my subordinates have been in Yulin Town for many years, they haven't made many meritorious achievements, and I'm ashamed."

After the two chatted for a while, the conversation ended quickly, He Yaowu actually did not report the specific situation of the Yulin Town Guard's fort, this is a very bold approach, generally speaking, after Zheng Xunrui took office, He Yaowu should bring relevant information, and report in detail the situation of the Yulin Border Army, instead of opening his mouth to say that there are 150,000 sergeants in Yulin Town, take 10,000 steps back and say, where these 150,000 people come from, how many sergeants are in each guard's fort, always have to be introduced.

Zheng Xunrui didn't ask, he had already sent Zheng Jinhong and Hong Xintao to secretly investigate He Yaowu, at this time, he couldn't show that he was too shrewd, so that He Yaowu was suspicious, after all, He Yaowu has been in Yulin for nearly ten years, and the relationship is still very strong, think about the mutiny of sergeants in Yulin border town, including Li Zicheng Zhang Xianzhong and other leaders of the rogue bandits, they all went out from here, it is impossible for He Yaowu to be responsible, but the world can be safe and sound.

As for the 150,000 border troops mentioned by He Yaowu, it is pure nonsense, according to the establishment of the guard army, the number of sergeants under the jurisdiction of each guard is 5,600 people, and at least 25 guards can reach the scale of 150,000 people, and they must be full.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the guard post has shrunk strictly, and when it was the strictest, a guard post could participate in the battle of sergeants, but a few hundred people, a border town like Yulin Town, it is said that it should be stronger than the guard post in the hinterland, but the actual situation is even worse, the guard post in the hinterland, sometimes it can also get the support of the local government, Yulin Town is a pure border town, all of them are military households, there are few people, and they cannot get the support of the local government, and they can only rely on themselves and the court, if the court ignores it, then the days will be very bad.

The number of sergeants in the fort of Yulin Town's guard camp was far more than 150,000 at its peak, reaching 250,000, but unfortunately with the collapse of the tuntian system, the number of sergeants in Yulin Town has been continuously compressed, and now it is 150,000 people, and the imperial court needs to allocate more than one million taels of silver every year, which is a heavy burden, and the imperial court cannot bear it at all.

According to Zheng Xunrui's prediction, it would be a miracle that all the troops in Yulin Town could reach 30,000 people, and the remaining 120,000 people, if they became standard farmers and bear unbearable taxes, or they only had names, and only God knew where they went.

He Yaowu opened his mouth to be 150,000 people, and he was not ashamed, this was obviously fooling Zheng Xunrui as a child, I believe that in front of Hong Chengchou, He Yaowu did not dare to say so.

It was these short conversations that made Zheng Xunrui completely determined, He Yaowu, who drank the blood of the soldiers, must have hoarded a lot of money and food, and for nearly ten years, although the imperial court was in arrears with military salaries, it was slowly disbursed in the end, and most of the silver allocated was probably in He Yaowu's pocket.

Under such circumstances, how could Zheng Xunrui let He Yaowu go.

Of course, he also knew that if he wanted to take He Yaowu, it was not such a simple thing, he needed real evidence, after all, he was a military attache of the second grade, and he had built some relationships over the years.

Fighting snakes and hitting seven inches, Zheng Xunrui knows where to start, and he knows where He Yaowu's weakness is.

During the meal, Zheng Xunrui pretended not to know anything, he was very curious about everything, and asked He Yaowu to open as many words as possible.

It is said that an old fox like He Yaowu generally doesn't say anything, but maybe he despises Zheng Xunrui too much, maybe because he drinks too much, he actually talks a lot, and finally teaches Zheng Xunrui, saying that the conditions in Yulin Town are too difficult, and the governor is afraid that he will have to suffer a lot, and he is really unable to deal with it, and he is willing to come forward to solve it.

During the meal, Zheng Xunrui took the opportunity to leave He Yaowu in the governor's yamen, so that the longer He Yaowu stayed in the governor's yamen, the more convenient it would be for Zheng Jinhong and Hong Xintao to investigate, otherwise some actions would alarm He Yaowu, and the matter would be difficult to handle.

The next day, He Yaowu, who had drunk too much, was still asleep, Zheng Xunrui had already asked the soldiers of the Zheng family army to pay close attention to the situation around the governor's yamen, as for the personal soldiers brought by He Yaowu, all of them were arranged in the barracks, and in the face of the strong Zheng family army, these personal soldiers could only honestly obey the arrangement, and they did not dare to move, after all, they came to the governor's yamen.

After He Yaowu woke up, Zheng Xunrui immediately arranged a banquet again, saying that he was grateful for He Yaowu's reminder and help, and started drinking again, He Yaowu was a little dazed, he drank too much, and after waking up, he was thinking about regret, and he didn't know what words he shouldn't say, and he was completely relieved to see Zheng Xunrui's attitude.

He Yaowu was drunk again, but this time He Yaowu spoke very well and did not take the initiative to say anything.

On the second day, there was an abnormality outside the governor's yamen, a middle-aged man who looked like a master was pacing anxiously outside the governor's yamen, always looking in the direction of the governor's yamen.

Hong Xinyu, who had been alert for a long time, made a decisive move and escorted this person to the wing of the governor's yamen.

When Zheng Xunrui came to the wing, this person's attitude was very arrogant, saying that he was the master of He Yaowu's general army, and he had urgent matters to report, and if it was delayed, no one could take responsibility.

Zheng Xunrui stood at the door of the wing room for a while, then turned around and left.

The reason why he left was because Zheng Jinhong returned to the governor's yamen.

Zheng Jinhong really moved, and brought an amazing news, Yulin General He Yaowu has begun to transfer property, just when Zheng Xunrui took office, he made preparations, this time he came to Yansui Town, on the other hand, he has arranged for cronies to start transferring property to his hometown in the mainland, Zheng Jinhong and Hong Xintao discussed, decisively took action, arrested all these people, and seized all the property.

Zheng Xunrui had a sneer on his face, his expression was particularly cold, he couldn't imagine that He Yaowu was too bold, and when he took office, he began to transfer his property, it seems that this He Yaowu still has a number in his heart, and he knows all his expressions in Yan'an Mansion, and he feels that it is a little dangerous, so he began to transfer his property.

This is a godsend, no wonder He Yaowu's master hurriedly came to the governor's yamen, originally thinking about ventilating the news, but unfortunately he had already prepared, and this opportunity was basically ripe.

"Zheng Jinhong, you go to promote He Yaowu's master, Hong Xinyu, pass on my order, all the soldiers of the Zheng family army are ready, once they take He Yaowu, quickly rush to Yulinwei to control the general military mansion."

Zheng Xunrui never thought that the opportunity would come so soon, he came to Yansui Town for only eight days, it seems that in a short period of time, a sensational event will happen in Yulin Town, maybe he will face a lot of pressure, but it doesn't matter, He Yaowu has been greedy for ink for nearly ten years, I don't know how much money has been gathered, and after seizing this money, he can change the dilemma of Yulin Town and even Yan'an Mansion and Qingyang Mansion in the shortest possible time.
