Chapter Twenty-Four: Troubles

With Yu Xiaotian being personally promoted to the deputy general of Fujian by the current saint, Yu Xiaotian can almost walk sideways in Fujian after this time, except for those civil officials, only Xie Longyi can still suppress him, but Xie Longyi has no right to control Yu Xiaotian, Yu Xiaotian has actually formed an army of his own, basically he has the final say, only Xiong Wencan can effectively control it, and even the current deputy envoy of the sea channel, Cai Shanji, if he wants to transfer Yu Xiaotian, he must first ask Xiong Wencan what he means.

In addition, for some of Yu Xiaotian's subordinates in this battle, the imperial court also gave a commendation, Li Dazui, as Yu Xiaotian's accompanying deputy on this expedition, was promoted by the commander of the East Wei of Fuzhou Town, and he could lead the town army of 3,000 alone, and also led the plum blossom guard of the thousand households and Wan'an to guard the thousand households, and some other generals also had their own promotions or rewards.

Even Mr. Zhang Qian also benefited from this, and he was rewarded for half a year, attributed to Xiaotian's moderation, and became Yu Xiaotian's subordinate.

After Yu Xiaotian got this holy decree, he was happy to smile, this time the battle to exterminate Blackbeard can be said to make him both famous and rich, in addition to making a lot of money, he was also promoted to a deputy general, becoming one of the most important generals in Fujian, and also thoroughly tested the mountain combat ability of his infantry.

More importantly, this time his promotion allowed him to justifiably control more territory in Fujian and control more troops at hand, which was extremely beneficial to his accumulation of strength in the future.

Although nominally he was in charge of the military affairs of Quanzhou and Zhangzhou, but with his control of the naval division, the entire coastal sea of Fujian was officially under his name, and in addition, Li Dazui transferred the town of Dongwei to serve as the commander of Tongzhi, and the two places of Meihua guarding the Qianhu and Wan'an guarding the Qianhu were just controlling the Minjiang River estuary and the southern end of the Haitan Strait, which was completely equivalent to controlling Haitan Island in the palm of his hand.

Coupled with the promotion of several other subordinates, his hand has even reached the side of Yanping Mansion, and he sneezes in the entire Fujian area in the future, and it is estimated that many people will catch a cold.

Xiong Wencan is also very satisfied with the court's reward arrangement this time, although the reward for Xiaotian is a bit beyond his expectations, but after all, Yu Xiaotian is his person, at least he sees it this way, the number of this control army is more, and when he does things in Fujian in the future, he will be less influenced by those incompetent generals who drink the blood of soldiers, as long as Yu Xiaotian can train a land division that can be invincible in the mainland, then why worry about the injustice of Fujian thieves in the future.

It's just that the only thing he is a little worried about is that Yu Xiaotian is promoted too quickly, and there may be a certain risk that the tail will not fall, but as long as he can grasp it well, Yu Xiaotian must know that Yu Xiaotian should know the way, leaving him Xiong Wencan, Yu Xiaotian is not easy to mix in Fujian, and the interests of the two people can now be said to have been tied together, and whoever leaves may not be able to do it.

Therefore, the court's reward this time is the result of great happiness for Xiong Wencan and Yu Xiaotian, and the most unhappy ones are probably Zhang Jiace and his former subordinates.

Although Zhang Jiace saved his life, he was swept to the end and directly relegated to his home for the elderly, which is undoubtedly a thunderous blow to a person like him who has to make a fortune by eating empty salaries and drinking the blood of soldiers, and completely wilted him.

Zhang Jiace has some secret hatred for Xiaotian, although he was dismissed and belittled this time and can't complain about Xiaotian, it was his own failure to fight a good battle that led to Xiong Wencan's arrest and questioning, but on the other hand, if Yu Xiaotian didn't do things too beautifully this time, as a major general in Fujian, the court would definitely rely on him, and he would not be cut down to the end for the people.

So to a certain extent, Yu Xiaotian also stepped on him so hard that now he doesn't even have a chance to turn over.

Hearing the news that Zhang Jiace was cut to the people and rushed home, many of Zhang Jiace's subordinates in the past ran to Zhang Jiace to discuss how to deal with Yu Xiaotian, because they were all Zhang Jiace's subordinates before, and they were not all the same way as Yu Xiaotian.

Therefore, these people are also worried about the future, so although Zhang Jiace has been demoted, they still come to the door to ask for advice.

Zhang Jiace sat at home, depressed to death, although these old subordinates did not immediately recognize him as an old boss because he was demoted, but he also knew very well that it would not be long before his influence would completely dissipate, and few of these rabbit cubs would definitely look at him again in the future.

Listening to the complaints of these old subordinates, Zhang Jiace secretly hated in his heart, slowly tapped his fingers on the table, his face was cold, and after a long time, he said coldly: "You guys, since I am no longer a deputy general, why bother to come to me to ask for advice?" You should hurry up and meet your new boss now, or you will not be able to do any good in the future.

Since you say so, I might as well remind you that now that Fujian has been fighting for many years and has insufficient financial resources, many brothers may have been in arrears for a long time! Since being a soldier requires a salary and food, no one can say anything about this! ”

When those former subordinates of Zhang Jiace heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, military salary! That's a great idea! So everyone immediately nodded knowingly, got up and said goodbye, rushed back to their respective places, and began to secretly tinker.

When Yu Xiaotian took office, of course, he wanted to meet these new subordinates, so he spread the word that these former Zhang Jiace's generals would meet him in the official office he was now temporarily setting up in Gaopu City.

A few days later, more than a dozen guards from all over the country and the generals of the town army rushed to the city of Gaopu, handed over the worship post, and were recruited by Yu Xiaotian into the hall of the government office.

When Yu Xiaotian learned the news of the arrival of these people, he found that something seemed to be a little wrong, because since he was the top boss of these people in the future, according to the normal situation, these people had to send some gifts to honor him first.

He doesn't care how many gifts and money these people give, because the last thing he lacks at the moment is money, and he doesn't care how many gifts these people give him, but this is a kind of etiquette, but after these people arrived today, in addition to the prayers, they didn't even give a gift of hair, so what does this mean?

So after thinking about it for a while, Yu Xiaotian sneered and ordered someone to recruit these guys into the lobby.

After these people entered the lobby, they were also respectful to Xiaotian, and they all gave salutes to Xiaotian, but they didn't see any problems with their attitudes.

Yu Xiaotian also met everyone one by one with a smile on his face, without revealing a bit of arrogance, and gave people a seat, chatted casually with these people, and asked about some of the officials and troops under their jurisdiction by the way.

And when he asked this, he got into trouble, and the guys, who must have made an appointment in advance, cried again and again, saying that their brothers had not been paid for several months.

Among them, the most noisy ones are even the thousands of commanders of Zhenhaiwei who Zhang Jiace started before, the commander of Tongzhi and the commander of the servants.

These people are Zhang Jiace's former cronies, Zhang Jiace first started on Zhenhaiwei's side, and once served as the commander of Zhenhaiwei, so those generals of Zhenhaiwei were the most resistant to Xiaotian's subordinates this time, and when Zhang Jiace gave them the idea to use the method of making money to find trouble with Yu Xiaotian, these people naturally jumped to the front.

Yu Xiaotian was not annoyed, because they had been arguing in the lobby for a long time, and the guards and generals under him were so angry that they couldn't wait to rush up and beat these guys violently.

And Yu Xiaotian looked like an old god, smoking his newly made heather pipe, and from time to time he also scattered some cigarette rolls for these guys to let these guys try the taste.

Listening to these guys arguing about the arrears, Yu Xiaotian nodded again and again, and seemed to sympathize with them, and when they were almost arguing, Yu Xiaotian nodded and said, "This is indeed a trouble!" It is a matter of course for a soldier to be paid and fed, so how can the brothers be allowed to work without eating? Anyway, this matter will definitely be reported to the governor, and he will definitely find a way to get back some military pay for you! ”

These guys saw that Yu Xiaotian's attitude was actually very good, and they didn't get annoyed by it, so they didn't have any embarrassment to continue making trouble, after all, this matter is not Yu Xiaotian's business, Yu Xiaotian just took over their places, but the matter of arrears, even if it is Yu Xiaotian, there is no way.

This time, everyone also understands that they just want to put pressure on Yu Xiaotian through this incident and not let Yu Xiaotian be too proud, so this is why there is such a scene.

In the evening of Yu Xiaotian, he also held a special banquet in the city of Gaopu, entertained these guys, personally accompanied them, and drank a wine with them.

Several of them saw that Yu Xiaotian was so approachable, and did not use the official position to pressure them, and they had a good impression of Xiaotian, so they naturally became closer to each other during the banquet, but some of them scoffed at this, and on the surface they were respectful to Xiaotian, but there was an arrears during the banquet, and there was a arrears, as if if they didn't take out these arrears immediately and make up for them now, things would be big immediately.

Yu Xiaotian asked these people to go back the next day, and when they left, they told them that they must take care of their subordinates and not make too much trouble, otherwise everyone will not look good.

After watching these people leave, Lin Yiyang slowly walked behind Yu Xiaotian, watched these guys leave, and sneered: "These bastards actually want to use this method to give the general a dismount, and they don't weigh their weight!" ”

It was only at this time that Yu Xiaotian put away the smile on his face and said coldly: "Send someone to Zhenhaiwei and check for me!" Find out how much they have eaten, and what immoral things they have done in the local area, and find out all of them for me! Hum! If you want to embarrass Lao Tzu, then Lao Tzu will let you see Lao Tzu's methods! ”

Lin Yiyang immediately nodded and received the order, and immediately turned around and went down to start arranging, now with the financial resources of the sea wolf, it is enough to support the construction of a huge intelligence network in the entire Fujian, but if Yu Xiaotian wants to know the Tao, there are really few things that he can't find.
