Chapter 52: Who's Helping Me?
Wang Dalun, who has a correct mentality, has consciously devoted himself to training, and he is very motivated now, why? One is that he was frightened by the tragic situation of those masters, and compared with them, Wang Dalun felt very happy. Second, he has a new difficult brother. Whenever he sees them, Wang Dalun feels very happy.
His difficult brothers and brothers are naturally those masters, originally according to Wang Dalun's idea, they are all masters, so there is no need to practice, just be a talent. But unexpectedly, Tian Boguang disagreed, and he insisted on letting these masters train.
"Old man, there's no need, they're all masters!" Wang Dalun persuaded that he felt that Tian Boguang was just doing this superfluously, and he felt like he was taking off his pants and farting.
"You know what? They're just masters of fighting, not murder! If they don't train, they can't fit into the group at all! Tian Boguang said with a serious face.
When Wang Dalun heard this, he still felt that Tian Boguang was very reasonable, so he didn't say anything. So there was a group of people on the playground who were trained by Tian Boguang to cry and call their mothers, Wang Dalun looked at the training of these masters, and his psychology was more balanced. Hey, it's not easy to eat these days!
Time passed in the rhythm of Wang Dalun and the masters being drilled to death every day, slowly, Wang Dalun finally became a sharpshooter, and finally could do 100 shots and 100 hits within 100 meters, of course, only hits, and if it was a big target, after all, this gun was not so advanced, and it did not have a scope.
After Gao Yingxiang was defeated, for a long time, there was no news of him in Shaanxi, and Wang Dalun thought that he could take everyone home for the New Year. After all, the disaster relief has almost been provided, and the suppression of the rebels has also defeated Gao Yingxiang, so he should not be able to make any waves in the short term.
But two news suddenly disrupted his plan, one was that Huang Zhengxiang was transferred, because he failed to control the situation during his tenure, resulting in a number of rebels in the territory, so Chongzhen was very unhappy with him, and transferred him to the political envoy as a general minister.
Huang Zhengxiang is still very satisfied with this result, compared to other local officials who were dismissed from office and held accountable. He felt lucky. Because more people did not starve to death with the help of Wang Dalun and Fang Wenjin Weng and his daughter-in-law in the later period, Chongzhen still let him go.
And his successor made Wang Dalun feel very surprised, it turned out to be Fang Wenjin. Huang Zhengxiang reciprocated the favor very much, and all kinds of procedures were handed over quickly. And the people he used to use before were specially introduced to Fang Wenjin. This allowed Fang Wenjin to quickly enter the role. Quickly grasp Yan'an Mansion.
Wang Dalun felt very happy about this, after all, Fang Wenjin finally got rid of the nominal identity of the deputy disaster relief envoy, this identity. No matter how much you do, your achievements are all positive, and it is still a false job, no matter how much you do, you are making wedding dresses for others.
After Fang Wenjin became the prefect of Yan'an Prefecture, his grade was first improved by one level, in fact, although Yan'an Mansion is not a good state that is so rich, but after all, it is still a state, and he is still a department official for the grade of future generations, and he has great potential for future development.
What makes Wang Dalun even more satisfied is that many of his recent investments are in Yan'an Mansion, and now with Fang Wenjin as the chief official, his investment is not afraid of waste.
And the news that surprised Wang Dalun was about himself, because he himself was promoted, or it was more accurate to be an official, he was actually appointed as a guerrilla general, and what surprised him even more was the last sentence of the document, "The salary of the army is 3,000, and the additional deficiency can be solved by itself." ”
"Tell me, old man, what the hell is going on?" Wang Dalun, who was very confused, gave full play to the spirit of not being ashamed to ask questions and asked the old ruffian for advice.
"Don't understand this?" Tian Boguang rolled his eyelids and said very expertly: "This means that you can recruit people on your own, but the imperial court only recognizes you as 3,000 soldiers, so it's no problem to recruit as many as you want, as long as you can support it!" ”
"Old man, I still don't feel right, the court won't treat me so well, right, they're not afraid that I will support the army and respect myself?" Wang Dalun asked very strangely.
"First of all, you have to be able to raise it, do you know Li Chengliang of Liaodong before the Dao? Many of his soldiers are his family members, and these people are not recognized by the court, so you have to solve their own food problems. When you raise an army of 10,000 people, you will know how expensive it is. Tian Boguang explained very calmly.
"Isn't there still 3,000 rations, I am only more than 6,000 people even recruiting so many people behind you, I only need to raise 3,000 people, it is easier than before, I won't encounter such a good thing, right?" Wang Dalun asked curiously.
"You think beautifully! Let me tell you the unwritten rules of an army, a normal army can get up to one-third of the salary, like you, who solve it by themselves, I estimate that the salary of 3,000 people, and you can get 1,000 people, it is considered the grace of the military masters. You have to be prepared that you won't get a penny! ”
"Not really, right?" Wang Dalun was shocked, very shocked, this distribution ratio is too low, right?
"Surprised?" Tian Boguang sneered, "First of all, the imperial court's appropriation is not sufficient, no matter what kind of money, the imperial court will allocate it according to a certain proportion, and even the emperor's annual expenditure will be discounted." The word that appears the most in the official documents of the household department is drifting! ”
Wang Dalun can stuff an egg in his mouth now, this is too, isn't it, Hubu is so bold?
"Even the emperor's use can be lost, let alone you and me, martial artists? In the Ming Dynasty, compared with the civilian officials, we martial artists have always been inferior, and of course the civilian officials of the household department have more military expenditures. When we go down to the localities, the chief officials at all levels will intercept some of them, and when they come to our hands, there will only be so many! ”
Tian Boguang said very disappointedly, which reminded him of his previous time in the army, when everyone sometimes couldn't even eat.
"Aren't they afraid of the army rebelling?" Wang Dalun thinks it's incredible.
"What are they afraid of? Do you know why Qi Dashuai was buried by the emperor after the most ruthlessness? Looked down upon by the world? It's nothing more than him patting Zhang Shoufu's sycophants and being a villain! But if he didn't do that, the troops wouldn't even be able to get food, let alone be able to train the troops to defend against the Mongols! Tian Boguang said very sadly.
Wang Dalun saw that Tian Boguang's mood was not right, and hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Old man, although I have to pay for the soldiers myself, this appointment is still very beneficial to me, and I don't lack this money, this solves my long-standing worries, I can raise soldiers justifiably now, the court is too good to me, right?" ”
"This proves that your efforts are rewarded, you have helped the court so much, and the court will repay you!" Tian Boguang said very lightly.
Wang Dalun thought about it, but still shook his head and said, "That's not right! Even if it is the prince, he will not help me solve such a big problem, including my father-in-law's appointment, which is of great benefit to me. Someone who is so cautious will not help me to this extent, who is helping me? ”
"How do I know about the Dao? I don't know any big officials in the court, maybe there is someone on your father-in-law's side to help! Tian Boguang said indifferently.
"That's not right! My father-in-law, his relatives, his peers, and his friends, I all know that they don't have so much energy, and the prince can do it, but he won't do it, especially the army, he won't touch the emperor's bottom line. Wang Dalun still denied Tian Boguang's speculation.
"Then I don't know what to do!" Tian Boguang looked at Wang Dalun's appearance and shrugged.
Wang Dalun looked at Tian Boguang, and suddenly said very seriously: "Old man, I think you must know the truth!" ”
"Me?" Tian Boguang said very funny: "If I know the Tao, what am I still doing here?" has long been developed, is it necessary for me to be the head of this hard-working regimental training? Isn't it so busy that your butt smokes every day, and you often threaten to deduct your wages? ”
"Nope! You must know the truth! Wang Dalun said very seriously: "Who advised me to recruit more people at that time, and you said at the time that I would be relieved to recruit people, it's okay!" ”
"Didn't I forgive your heart at the time, so I casually said that it seems that I can change my career to become a fortune teller in the future. Oh, I can fulfill it casually, it seems that I want to say more about how I will definitely be able to make a fortune in the future, and there is inexhaustible money! Tian Boguang pretended to be very happy and said.
"Since you don't want to say it, forget it! Your casual remark today has been fulfilled again, and I am ready to give you a thousand taels of silver!" Wang Dalun shrugged.
"Don't! No merit, I'm a gentleman, how do you say that? A gentleman loves money and takes it in the right way, so I don't want to accept your silver in a daze!" Tian Boguang began to postpone the road.
"Old man, when did you change sex? You're very wrong today, you usually love money like your life, when did you become such a gentleman? Wang Dalun stared at Tian Boguang and said,
"What's wrong with loving money? But I only take what I deserve, and I don't want it if it's not mine! Tian Boguang shook his head and said very righteously.
"Okay, then I'll give you the processing money, you should ask for this, right?" Wang Dalun said helplessly.
"Don't!" Tian Boguang said very simply: "No merit is not rewarded!" ”
Wang Dalun is even more strange, this old man is very wrong, he is even more sure in his heart, this matter should have something to do with Tian Boguang, but everyone has secrets, they are all so tempted, and if he still doesn't say it, it proves that he really doesn't want to say it.
Forget it, don't I have a secret that I can't say, since he doesn't say it, forget it, make up for the old man in other aspects in the future, this favor, just remember him.
But who does Tian Boguang know? The energy of the person behind him is too great, right?
For a while, Wang Dalun fell into deep contemplation again. Because Wang Dalun doesn't believe in pie in the sky, he is now very unsure whether this matter will be good or bad for him in the end. (To be continued......)
PS: Recently, the materials and meetings have made me dizzy, and I was busy with the materials yesterday, so I forgot to release them regularly! Forgive me, in addition, this chapter has begun to dig holes, who can guess Tian Boguang's identity, and there will be a prize for guessing
