Finally, the most terrible question is asked!

In fact, since the previous battle between Pizhou Wei and the dog camp, after the big defeat and loss, many people have been worried about this, after all, Pizhou Wei died too many people in that war, even if Yang Fang later used his own tiger camp to make up for it, the number is still much worse than before.

There is almost no army of the Ming Dynasty that does not eat empty salaries, which everyone knows in their hearts, Pizhou Wei belongs to the later expansion, the original number of troops was 7,000, and there were only more than 5,000 people when the war was not started, although the empty amount of the Wei is not as easy as the general generals, many of them are old households whose ancestors are here, and you are not good at really getting anyone away, but a large part of the food and salary on the side of Pizhou Wei are supplied by Nanzhili, and there is a special piece of money and grain, and then it was expanded again, so there are more opportunities to get up and down, Almost all of this officer is an insider.

But this is also human nature, when Yang Fang went to Nanzhili, he said that he was full of seven thousand, and the adults naturally didn't believe it, but it is estimated that there are five or six thousand people, after all, Nanzhili is so helpful, which is equivalent to realizing a large part of the off-duty personnel for you, these people can have two or three thousand soldiers, right? The rest put down their hoes, picked up knives and guns, and it shouldn't be a problem to make up five or six thousand people, and many old adults regard this Pizhou Wei as a strong force in Nanzhili.

Yang Fang actually did a good job, although it is estimated that there are only two or three hundred people who can really fight, and the rest are eaten with mixed rice, but after all, there are more than 5,000 people who can stand up and put on a show, and they really met Shangguan who came to check it. You can get over the foolishness, but they had a fight with the dog camp before, which caused the number of people to drop sharply, and they haven't made up for it until now.

A few days ago, Yang Fang got a group of homeless people out of nowhere and forced them to fill in the guard, and everyone thought that this matter was almost over, even if Lord Yu came to check this time, no one took it too seriously, but at this time, the group of homeless people in military uniforms were all gone. Even the commander is gone. There are only two Tongzhi left, as well as more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, Hu Jie can still see that Feng Xin's troops have been defeated for a while today. Lost a little. plus the old and weak soldiers who stayed behind.

It's a bleak scene......

Now the old man asked where the soldiers were. Some people want to say that they were killed by Song Qing, but now that Song Qing is intimately supporting the boss, who dares to say this? What's more, if you do, it will lead to a whole bunch of questions. Why do you want to fight with Song Qing? There's always a cause, right? Could it be that Pizhou Wei pretended to be a bandit to rob the road?

Even if it's nonsense, the boss is afraid that he will believe Song Qing, and Yang Fang is not present at this time, Hu Jie seems to be in the same group as Song Qing, and the integrity of other people together is not worth two and a half percent, maybe it will lead to bigger things at that time, so it is better to keep silent.

Fortunately, the boss asked Hu Jie, not them, and all the officers were also happy, all of them looked like they were looking at their noses and noses, and they were standing by and waiting, and their minds were even pondering, if something really happened to Commander Yang this time, should it be time to go to Commander Hu's house to send some local products?

Hu Jie instantly became the object of attention, fortunately, he has been looking forward to this moment for a long time, yesterday he also deliberately practiced acting skills in front of the bronze mirror, and suddenly he was sad again, and he couldn't say why he came for a long time, he still looked like a loyal and straight man, and the rest of the generals and officers were more anxious than him. Do you really want to kill everyone in a hurry?

After a while, Hutong Zhi seemed to have made up his mind, his eyes became solid and calm, and he actually showed a relieved smile, and said to the boss: "This matter is all the fault of the lower officials, don't do the business of commanding the adult, the boss listens to me and slowly divides it, it is ...... that day."

Just made a start, several officers under Hu Jie's command had already knelt down in unison, crying and crying: "My lord, he has treated you like this all these years, but you are still the same, we are benevolent enough to do our duty, and we can't hold the tank for him anymore!" ”

Hu Jie was still silent, but his subordinates couldn't help but speak out, and in the intermittent, poignant, and ignorant telling, several officers checked each other's shortcomings and filled in the gaps, and a story of brotherhood appeared.

Think back then, in Pizhou Wei another pair of brothers who had just sworn up, the eldest brother was loyal and honest, down-to-earth and hardworking, the brother was shrewd, and the talent was not bad, both of them were born in poverty, but they have always had great ambitions, and they wanted to make a difference in the guard, so they usually worked extremely hard, and after a long time, they were also quite valued by the officials, and their positions were promoted little by little, until both of them were in high positions, which almost became a beautiful talk in the guard, and everyone felt that these two people would be good brothers for a lifetime.

At this moment, the former commander stepped down, and the two brothers knew the same thing at that time, if they were judged by ability, the two were actually about the same, but the eldest brother's qualifications were older after all, and he was stable and reliable, and the brother was a little frizzy, so almost everyone felt that this new commander should be the eldest brother.

But when the fate came down, everyone found that this was not the case at all, the brother who had almost no hope of doing it, actually became the new commander, and the eldest brother still stayed in the original position, the eldest brother's subordinates were not convinced, and specially found someone to investigate the matter, and finally found that the brother spent a lot of money in Nanzhili to entrust people, and it seemed that there were nobles to help, and easily replaced the position of the eldest brother, which is almost an unforgivable thing in the guard station where righteousness is the first.

The eldest brother's subordinates planned to make a fuss and give the brother a good look, and they were almost ready, but they were stopped by the eldest brother at the last moment, and the subordinates couldn't figure it out, but the eldest brother didn't explain anything, as if it had nothing to do with him at all, so he admitted the matter.

I thought that the matter would end here, but after the brother became the commander, for some reason, he began to suppress the former sworn brother in every way, today to find a mistake here, tomorrow there to find a fault, in short, in order to deal with this eldest brother, almost all means have been used, and the guard is gradually controlled by him, except for a few loyal old brothers, the rest have all become the brothers' subordinates, but the eldest brother still still doesn't say anything, and bears all this very plainly.

Until today, the incident of the brother's empty salary has been released, and the stupid eldest brother still has to take the blame for him......

This story is actually very simple, and there is no very outstanding plot, but a few strong men said gracefully with snot and tears, coupled with Hu Jie's actions, immediately set off the scene a little more holy, and there seemed to be a red-faced and long-bearded man in the sky, wearing a green robe, wearing a green hat, holding a green dragon glaive knife, and smiling at Hu Jie on the ground, all in all, everything seems so noble, it seems that if you are not moved by this story, you basically can't be regarded as a person with truth, kindness and beauty.

After the story was told, the officers in the guard shed a few tears one after another, and the righteous man Song Qing couldn't cry even more, even the old man who was used to seeing the changes and the world was cold, he sighed heavily, Hu Jie's face was dull, as if he had lost his soul, and he said in a dumb voice for a while: "You misunderstand my righteousness, misunderstand my righteousness!" ”

"Alas......" I don't know which officer suddenly took a step forward and sobbed: "Today, I know why Lord Hu never argues in the guard, and every time he makes some opinions, he commands the Lord to look forward to the horse, and the officials obey!" ”

Good expression, good look, and the length of the sigh is also very accurate, Song Qing praised it silently in his heart, and was about to carefully figure out the acting skills of this adult, when he saw that Feng Tongzhi had already kneeled in front of Hu Jie, his hands rounded his big mouth, and said while fighting: "The younger brother used to be rude, just because he felt that his brother was cowardly, but now he knows the reason for this, compared with his brother, Feng Xin is a brute!" Hit me with this stinky mouth! Hit me with this stinky mouth! ”

This guy is also a character, a little worse than Hu Jielai, but he is also quick-witted, and he can put down his body at any time and change the direction of the wind, Song Qing was immediately silent when he saw this, and only felt that he still had many peaks to climb on the road of acting, and he must not get carried away, otherwise he would be killed by these old fritters in the officialdom sooner or later.

After the play is finished, it's time to set the tone, and the officers wiped their tears and waited for the result, the old man actually believed it in his heart, after all, he had taken a look along the way, plus his general understanding of Yang Fang before, he was basically able to determine that these were all things that really happened.

It's just that at this point, there is still a hurdle that can't be passed, how to say that Yang Fang also has a backstage, and when he was asked to be the commander, it was the result of several people compromising together, and now he naturally can't be the master alone, no matter how much he appreciates Hu Jie, he must see Yang Fang first, and wait until everything is knocked to death, even if it is really called Hu Jie to take over as the commander, there must be a solid evidence, for example, Yang Fang's confession and other things appear, and it will be easy to do after he goes back.

In the final analysis, it is still necessary to see Yang Fang first, the old man raised his eyebrows slightly, and said to Feng Xin: "Think about what Yang Fang usually likes to go to, find someone for me immediately, and say that the official has something to ask him, if he can't come back within an hour, he won't have to come to see the official again!" ”

This is already the most obvious ultimatum, Feng Xin didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly led a few servants to leave, Hu Jie finally reluctantly walked out of the sadness and inexplicability, and commanded everyone to accompany the old man to take a look in the guard, but every few steps, the boss's anger will be seriously injured, this guard is far from what he imagined, even a minimum number of soldiers cannot be guaranteed, and the rest of the place is also in tatters, and I don't know where the appropriations that Nan Zhili has given here over the years have gone, and the good soldiers brought by Yang Fang! (To be continued......)
