Chapter 78: His soldiers die casually
"Haha, you still have vision, okay, how many soldiers are you going to second, let's say."
Pei Guangyuan's words were very useful to Zheng Qian, so he asked happily.
"It is enough to borrow 2,000 sergeants, plus my government soldiers and yacha and other manpower, there are almost 3,000 people, and there are only 1,000 people counting the old and weak women and children in Luoyun Village, and 3,000 people are enough to beat them."
Touching his beard, Pei Guangyuan looked confident.
"Okay, two thousand sergeants will be two thousand sergeants, and when you have prepared the grain and grass over there, you can come to my side at any time to transfer troops."
It is common practice for the government to borrow troops to suppress bandits, so Zheng Qian is also experienced, and understands that before the grain and grass are ready, even if the sergeant is seconded to Pei Guangyuan, he can only be useless, so he will let Pei Guangyuan mobilize the grain and grass before transferring the troops.
"Haha, okay, then thank you Zheng Shoubei. If there are casualties during the suppression of bandits, the pension expenses will also be borne by the Qingyun County Yalai, and Zheng Shoubei can rest assured.
Oh, by the way, it will take more than ten days for me to mobilize grain and grass here, so it is expected that the troops will be sent to Luoyunzhai after the 14th, and I will send people to transfer the troops after the 13th, so I ask Zheng Shoubei to bother more.
In this way, I will not disturb Zheng Shoubei's training and take my leave. ”
After getting Zheng Qian's quasi-letter, Pei Guangyuan's goal was also achieved, so he stood up with a smile and said goodbye.
"No problem, when the time comes, you send someone with a handwritten letter, and I will arrange two thousand sergeants."
Sending Pei Guangyuan out of the camp, Zheng Qian didn't care about the death or injury of the soldiers at all.
In his opinion, although there have been no major wars in recent years, the sergeants of his large battalion have also fought several times with small bandits in Dayu Kingdom, and how can they not even defeat a small bandit village.
"My lord, did this trip go well?"
When Pei Guangyuan returned to the county office in a sedan chair, Master Sun hurriedly greeted him and accompanied Pei Guangyuan into the study.
"Lord Ben personally has something that can't be done, please, it's too hot this day, pour me a glass of water."
Pei Guangyuan sat on the chair, picked up the fan casually and fanned it.
"Yes, yes, my lord, you can quench your thirst with a sip of tea."
Master Sun hurriedly poured a cup of tea for Pei Guangyuan, then took the fan from Pei Guangyuan's hand, and stood aside and fanned it diligently.
"My lord, why don't you let the officers and soldiers on the prefect's side not use it, but instead borrow people from Zheng Qian's garrison? Aren't the officers and soldiers on the prefect's side more relieved to use? ”
"What do you know, my eldest brother's more than 30,000 people are our own people, what if this is a little damaged when encircling and suppressing Luoyun Mountain, these people are of great use.
As for Zheng Gan's manpower, if he dies, he will die, and it will be a big deal to give him some money when the time comes, anyway, he is not the master's person, if there is really something, it is estimated that it will be a stumbling block for us. ”
Drinking the tea in the cup in one gulp, Pei Guangyuan wiped the water on his face and glanced at Master Sun proudly.
"Haha, high, it's really high, or adults think it through!"
After listening to Pei Guangyuan's words, Master Sun immediately stretched out his thumb and exclaimed with admiration.
"Haha, who called me an adult, just think about more things, you, just learn more!"
Haha, Pei Guangyuan poured himself another cup of tea.
"Master Sun, now that I have already discussed the matter of transferring troops, you must also step up the mobilization of grain and grass, and you must not delay time. Also, things in the mine are also being watched, and the speed can't be slow. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, the matter of mobilizing grain and grass has been arranged, although the speed will be a little slow, but it will definitely not delay the time for the adults to encircle and suppress Luoyun Village.
On the other side of the mine, my lord, the miners have been forced to mine continuously for the past two days, and some people are already physically unbearable, and if this continues, there will be deaths and injuries. If too many people die, the lack of manpower will affect the speed of mining even more. ”
Seeing that Pei Guangyuan was in a good mood, Master Sun thought about it and told him about the things in the mine.
"Huh? I can't stand it so soon, these pariahs are so useless! ”
What Master Sun told affected Pei Guangyuan's good mood, he frowned and put the water cup aside.
"You immediately write to my eldest brother, saying that there is a serious shortage of manpower in the mine, and ask my eldest brother to send people to the mine as soon as possible. Besides, you also ask the people below to pay more attention and get some people to send to the mine. As for what method to use, let them think for themselves, anyway, I don't care what method they use, I just need to see people! ”
"Yes, my lord, then you can rest first, and your subordinates will do it."
After Pei Guangyuan's indication, Master Sun gave him a salute and hurriedly exited the study.
Since the beginning of mid-July, there has been a lot of rain in Yunzhou Mansion, and it is still very hot. Many old farmers are talking about the fear that the grain harvest of summer ploughing will be affected by waterlogging.
The people who were still at home also began to get anxious because the food stock at home was about to be eaten up and the new grain harvest had not yet come down.
At this moment, news came from nowhere, saying that the government was preparing to distribute relief grain, and villagers from the surrounding disaster-stricken towns could send Qingzhuang to work in Qingyun County in exchange for relief grain.
When some young people in the disaster-stricken towns heard the news, they left their surplus grain for the old and weak at home, and rushed to Qingyun County alone, wanting to work in exchange for food. After this wave of people came to Qingyun County, they disappeared without a trace, and no one saw them again.
The government's response was that these people were sent to work, and some of the old and weak people who stayed at home did receive a little food, so people thought that the government was really working instead of revitalizing, which also attracted more young people to come.
"Young master, during this time, Pei Guangyuan and they deceived more than 200 young people in the mine on the grounds of exchanging work for food."
In an ordinary mansion, Yunmo informed Situ Junfeng of the news of the recent investigation.
In order not to make people suspicious, Situ Junfeng and his team no longer lived in the inn, but Duan Zhengming's subordinates came forward to rent a small house with two entrances in Qingyun County, and sent two clever servants to take care of Situ Junfeng's daily diet.
"It seems that Pei Guangyuan is a little anxious, this ore is really very important to them. This time, when they have transported the ore away, they must follow the vine and find out their plot. ”
Since the last batch of iron ore was robbed, it has been ten days since today, and in these ten days, Pei Guangqing has sent nearly 100 prisoners to the mine, and Pei Guangyuan has also used the scam to deceive more than 200 people in the mine.
"You let Duan Zhengming's people keep an eye on Xiajiang County, once the second batch of iron ore is sent out, you must notify me as soon as possible."
After thinking for a while, Situ Junfeng said towards Yunmo.
"Yes, young master."
Yunmo didn't talk nonsense, and directly turned around and walked out of the room.
