Ma Wenchang's expression was gloomy, and he hated and hated: "It's all done by that little mongrel surnamed Yang." He claimed www.biquge.info that he wanted to completely clean up the Xuanhuo Camp, and now he is eliminating idle people and others, and is rerecruiting new recruits outside the capital. ”

......

The area of the Xuanhuo Camp is not very large, and it runs ten laps around the edge in a row, and less than 300 people persist. Adjutant General Xue Jinbiao is one of them.

Those who failed to persist were all kicked out of the barracks by Yang Tianhong. In fact, these people are already old and weak, and they stay in the barracks just to eat. For the sake of twenty taels of silver severance pay, no one complained. Soon, the barracks, which was full of people, had become deserted.

Yang Dashan, Yang Tong and others moved quickly, and in just two days, they recruited more than 1,000 recruits.

The practice of steamed buns and braised pork is indeed tempting to most of the ordinary people in this world. Being able to eat enough, and also being able to eat meat, is already an enviable luxury. What's more, the officers recruited by the Xuanhuo Battalion have repeatedly promised that they will never deduct military salaries.

The selection of recruits is very strict. The ruffians and hooligans who wanted to sneak in and mix with rice were all beaten away, and the really strong ones were left behind. Although the number is only so large for the time being, it is impossible to reach the quota of 3,000 people, but the recruitment of troops will continue, and it is only a matter of time before the number of troops is full.

When Yin Jianhua, Ma Wenchang and others came to the barracks again, more than a month had passed since the last exercise. Now, as far as the eye can see, the entire barracks are full of people, the camp has also expanded a lot, the shouts of killing on the school field are shocking, and there are men with round waists everywhere, everything seems out of place in the past.

The truth of this world is nothing more than the word "justice". If there is enough food and food, the combat effectiveness of the army will naturally increase by a large margin. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "the emperor is not a hungry soldier", and the reason why Yang Tianhong did not rush to adjust the internal structure of the Xuanhuo Camp at the beginning, but first found the Meng family as a partner, was to be able to get stable and strong support from money and logistics.

Yin Jianhua was shocked by what he saw.

The school grounds, which were in tatters, dusty on sunny days and muddy on rainy days, have completely changed. The foundation was apparently particularly compacted, covered with what appeared to be black cinders or something, and there should have been a layer of cement underneath, a peculiar structure of the ground that Yin Jianhua had never seen before, but the benefits were very obvious. This kind of ground will not raise dust, the cinder will become more and more compact, and the flat ground will not appear water seepage and accumulation pits.

As many as thousands of hardcover men lined up in a square line on the school field, under the leadership of the team officers, they were either running or doing various tactical training actions. The sun is hot, and the soldiers are **** on their upper bodies, shirtless, wearing only a pair of dark green shorts, sweating in the heat and passion.

In the distance, Yang Tianhong can be seen standing on the high platform.

It was already noon, and before Yin Jianhua and the others could find Yang Tianhong through the school field, their eyes had been attracted by the soldiers who were quickly forming a team.

Yin Jianhua sniffled vigorously, smelling a rich aroma in the air. He followed the source of the smell, saw the canteen smoking in the distance, and asked Ma Wenchang, who was standing beside him, "What are you eating in the room today?"

On Ma Wenchang's white face, there was a hint of pain. He pursed his lips, sighed, and said, "Old Yin, you have stayed at home for too long. I really should go to the gang room to take a look, this Xuanhuo camp is no longer what we were at that time, and if we continue to do this, everything here will have to be surnamed Yang. ”

......

The original dirty and dilapidated house is now renovated.

Dozens of tables were arranged in a row, separating the soldiers who walked in in groups from the kitchen. Dozens of cooks stand behind the table, methodically handing out food. Today's staple food is heterozygous pancakes, two-finger-thick cakes are quite firm in the hand, and one cake weighs half a catty. Each soldier walked in front of the cook, and each person was given two cakes in order, and further on, the big sea bowl was filled with pork stewed vermicelli, full of oil and water.

Yin Jianhua blushed, walked to the huge soup pot containing meat, and without saying a word, snatched the soup spoon from a chef's hand and stirred it back and forth in the soup pot. The soup oil is very thick, and it is said that it is pork stewed vermicelli, but in fact, the number of vermicelli is at most half of pork. The meat is cut into inch-sized cubes, and it is very pleasant just to look at it.

Of course, the chef knows his boss. There was a difference between the top and bottom, and he didn't dare to squeak and denounce the soup spoon that was about to be snatched, so he had to secretly turn around and go to the kitchen to get another handful.

The soldiers who lined up to receive the meal walked forward in order, and Yin Jianhua swept over everyone one by one with his fire-breathing eyes, especially every time he saw those thick and soft pancakes and pork pieces, he felt a pain in his heart.

"What kind of meat do you eat if you don't celebrate the New Year?"

Seeing a soldier chewing a large piece of fat and walking by, Yin Jianhua couldn't hold back any longer, waved his hand and picked up his fist, smashing the soup bowl in the soldier's hand into the air, then turned around and kicked over the nearest table. Suddenly, the bamboo basket containing the cakes on the table tumbled in the air, and countless flatbreads fell to the ground.

Ma Wenchang didn't like Yin Jianhua's rough behavior, but he could understand this kind of angry approach.

Thousands of miles of officials are only for money. This sentence is very applicable to both civilian officials and military generals. Compared with civilian officials, military generals have a much more limited source of money, and the most commonly used, and regarded by all military generals as their main source of income, is military salary.

According to the military regulations of the Great Chu, the Xuanhuo Battalion belongs to the second-level garrison force, and the monthly salary of the sergeant is two taels per person. The number of the rest of the fire commanders and team officers is slightly higher, and the difference is not very big.

The total number of Xuanhuo battalions is 3,000, and the salary normally allocated by the military department every month is 7,100 taels.

Yin Jianhua served as a deputy general in the Xuanhuo Battalion for eleven years. Due to insufficient qualifications and insufficient cultivation, he has not been able to get the post of chief officer. However, this did not prevent Yin Jianhua from secretly swallowing the salary and silver, falsely reporting the number of sergeants, and enriching his own pockets. Before Yang Tianhong took over the Xuanhuo Battalion, the total number of people in the camp was only 1,200. More than half of them are homeless beggars. Of course, it was impossible for Yin Jianhua to give these people money, but he just used it as a cover and gave some food to raise in the camp. When I have nothing to do, I sleep in a daze, and if there is an inspection on it, I pull it out and pretend to be. When it comes to going into battle to kill the enemy, these people are afraid that they can't even hold a stick, and their legs go weak when they hear the golden drum shouting to kill.

The country of Great Chu is peaceful and peaceful, and all kinds of materials in the market are abundant. The price of a pig is about one or two or three dollars of silver. Based on the calculation of 1,000 people, each meal consumes about ten fat pigs, plus the staple food...... Calculate casually, the silver money consumed is enough to make Yin Jianhua feel pain.

All this money was pulled out of the mouths of the battalion soldiers little by little. Now, I have to watch these stupid military men eat with their mouths full of oil.

Yin Jianhua began to understand why Ma Wenchang said, "This Xuanhuo camp is going to change the sky."

Where is this still the military camp that I used to be familiar with? Obviously, I came to another place. Nothing else, just talking about this food, even if it is his own family, it is impossible to eat so well.

Money, it's all my money!

The more he thought about it, the more the anger burned in Yin Jianhua's mind. Looking at the soldier in front of him who was smashed by himself, Yin Jianhua had an indescribable sense of rage. He grabbed the soldier's arm, clenched his fist, and slammed it into the overwhelmed soldier's body while drinking heavily in his mouth.

"A bunch of shitty waste, what qualifications do you have to eat meat?"

"It's all fucking, damn, for Lao Tzu to spit it out, and there's nothing left. ”

"Open your mouth and spit out! If you can't spit it out, I'll kill you today!"

Yin Jianhua is the deputy general of the Xuanhuo Battalion and a second-level qi refiner. He has not yet formed a formation, and he has no weapons and armor in his hands, and ordinary soldiers are not his opponents at all. The onlookers on the side only saw Yin Jianhua's violence, but they didn't understand what was going on, and they were also shocked by Yin Jianhua's general's clothes. For a while, no one came up to dissuade them, only the soldiers who were pressed to the ground and beat them screamed repeatedly.

"Whoosh--"

A whistling air flow suddenly swept through the air, slashing straight towards Yin Jianhua's back. The monk's five senses were extremely acute, Yin Jianhua instinctively turned sideways, rolled on the ground twice in a row, regained his position, and after regaining his balance, he saw Yang Tianhong, who was walking in from the door of the room, and a young guard standing beside him, holding a steel knife.

The guards around Yang Tianhong are all surnamed Yang. Yin Jianhua didn't know the specific name of this young man, he just felt shocked: a young man who looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he actually had a cultivation level comparable to his own? The knife just now was so powerful that if he hadn't avoided it in time, his entire shoulder would have been cut off alive.

If the person who did it was Yang Tianhong, Yin Jianhua would be a little jealous. However, the person who brandished the knife and slashed at himself was just an unknown soldier guard beside Yang Tianhong.

He, he didn't even spare his hand at all?

Nima, Lao Tzu is the deputy general of the Xuanhuo Battalion, and the captain of the Great Chu State.

Do you want to commit the following crimes?

Yin Jianhua instinctively reached out to touch the saber, but felt empty. When he looked up, he found that the saber had fallen on the ground not far away. Although the previous knife was avoided by himself in time, the rope that tied the scabbard was cut.

Without a weapon in his hand, and knowing that he was definitely not an opponent, Yin Jianhua couldn't help but be a little scared in his heart, but he still mustered up the courage, his eyes were wide with anger, with his inherent might, he put on a stand, and shouted at Yang Tianhong: "Yang Yingguan, do you want to attack and kill your colleagues in broad daylight?

Yin Jianhua knew very well that from the last time Yang Tianhong ordered the training on the school field without saying hello, they had completely torn their faces with each other. There is no need for politeness on the surface, and Yang Tianhong obviously does not take himself as a deputy general in his eyes. Instead of continuing to make false promises, it is better to simply take a clear position and fight to the death.

Yang Tianhong motioned to his subordinates to pick up the dying soldier from the ground, and looked at Yin Jianhua with a cold gaze.

"Vice Admiral Yin, you came just in time, and I have something to talk to you about. ”

Yang Tianhong, wearing a close-fitting armor, walked to a position more than three meters away from Yin Jianhua and stood still, and said calmly: "Yesterday, I checked the accounts of the Xuanhuo Camp in recent months, and found that there were many inconsistencies in them. ”

After a pause, Yang Tianhong turned sideways, and Yang Yuan, the personal guard who followed behind, hurriedly handed over an account book. Yang Tianhong opened it casually and said, "Regardless of the distance, let's talk about the salary in the last six months." According to my Da Chu military regulations, the monthly silver of the soldiers of the Xuanhuo Battalion is two taels. I carefully asked the veterans in the battalion, and they all said that the salary had been reduced by more than half since two years ago, and each person received only one dollar and three cents a month. So, where did all the rest of the silver go?"

Yin Jianhua gritted his teeth hard, his eyes full of a hungry tiger's ferocious gaze.

Of course, the money was privately divided by several lieutenants of the Xuanhuo Battalion. Ma Wenchang and Wu Han both participated. If not, how could he afford to buy a house in the capital? Where would he have the money to ask for a concubine?

Well, I know that embezzling military pay is a grave crime of killing your head. But looking at the world, how many generals will not eat empty salaries? Will not kill good people and risk meritorious deeds? Lao Tzu is the deputy general of the first battalion, what is wrong with stepping on the heads of those lowly military men below to climb up? Your **** Yang Tianhong dog is nosy with rats, Lao Tzu originally planned to respect you as a boss and official, and you will share a share of the money, but now it seems that it is simply a black-hearted seed that eats people and does not spit out bones, and wants to swallow this Xuanhuo camp from head to toe.

Yang Tianhong didn't care about Yin Jianhua's murderous gaze, he glanced at the injured soldier who was resting in the corner of the room by Yang Tong, and his tone suddenly became cold and fierce: "Only a strong man can go into battle to kill the enemy, he can't eat, he doesn't have the strength, how can he talk about training? Ben will promise that from today onwards, all the salaries and silver of all the people in the Xuanhuo Camp will be paid in full, and if there is a penny or a penny, anyone can ask me Yang Tianhong for guilt!"

After saying this, the soldiers and men present were extremely moved. They all started talking about it.

"Yang Yingguan is really different from those previous generals, if he can really pay the full amount of money every month, work hard, and go into battle to kill the enemy, it is worth it. ”

"I said that the previous monthly case was two taels of silver, why did it suddenly become one dollar and three cents? ”

"That dog mongrel actually injured our brother, dog thief! Kill talents! Today, Yang Yingguan is in charge, and we have chopped this damn bloodsucking worm alive!"

More and more military men flocked from all directions, and Ma Wenchang, who had been shrinking behind, was also pushed to Yin Jianhua's side. Although the soldier did not make a move, the anger and scolding on his face became louder and louder. The people in front blocked the road to prevent Yin Jianhua from leaving, but the people in the back were hungry and wanted to eat. In this way, the news spread rapidly from the beginning, and the veterans of conservative bullying were eager to rush forward to strip Yin Jianhua and others alive, and the recruits were also indignant, shouting, roaring, and blocking the surroundings.

In front of the strength of more than a thousand people, the second-level qi refiner was not worth mentioning at all.

Yin Jianhua's face was no longer pale, but pale. He suddenly felt that he had made a mistake by coming here. These reckless men in the army were not reasonable at all, and they were casually provoked by Yang Tianhong, and they stood opposite them one after another.

"You guys, what do you want to do?"

Yin Jianhua was extremely anxious, but he had to be afraid of the turbulent crowd, so he could only retreat step by step, leaning against the wall, roaring wildly and bluffing: "Do you want to attack and kill the imperial court officials?

Hearing this, the excited soldiers stopped one after another, and their faces full of anger showed hesitation and fear.

Yang Tianhong walked in separately from the crowd, stared at Yin Jianhua, who was full of panic, and said lightly: "When it comes to the following crimes, this sentence should be more suitable for you Vice General Yin." The only supreme person in my Great Chu is Your Majesty. All armies in the world are owned by His Majesty. Vice General Yin, do you think that the military salary for raising soldiers is from your own family? Isn't it that Your Majesty is virtuous, and all the people in the world return to their hearts, collect them from the people one by one, and feed back to tens of millions of soldiers and people. It's good that you don't say anything about filling your pockets, and you don't think about repentance. Except for the brothers' monthly silver, where did the armor in the Xuanhuo camp go? When Ben General took over, the treasury was empty, except for a few rusty broken knives and guns, and the grain depot was even more empty, and even rats could starve to death. You'd better be honest and tell you where the money goes. Otherwise, you are guilty of embezzling state assets. This move is enough to punish your nine clans!"

Saying that, Yang Tianhong continued: "The general has already reported this matter to the Ministry of War. It won't take long for the above to come to a conclusion. ”

Yin Jianhua's legs were weak for a while, and his eyes were surrounded by black halos. He swallowed hard and shouted hoarsely: "Yang Tianhong, you dare to bully your colleagues, I, I will never let you go." Do you know, I, I am the person of the prince of Jingning. Today, I will repay this move a hundredfold!"

King Jingning?

Hearing these three words, Yang Tianhong's face, which originally had a faint sneer, suddenly became cold, and an undisguised ferocious killing intent appeared in the depths of his eyes.

After cultivating in the Guiyuan Sect for a long time, he has never forgotten the hateful face of King Jingning.

There is also the Lingyun County Lord who has never seen it, but he is sure that he crashed into the car.

Ma Wenchang's eyes were sharp, and he clearly saw the change in Yang Tianhong's expression. He hurriedly tugged at Yin Jianhua's clothes and reminded urgently: "Don't say it again, it's only serious to find a way to get out of here first." ”

Yin Jianhua was born as a military general, his eyes narrowed, he forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and pretended to shout fiercely: "What are you afraid of, after all, I am still the deputy general of the Xuanhuo Battalion appointed by the imperial court." Could it be that his surname is Yang boy, and he still dares to kill me?"

Yin Jianhua is not wrong about this, privately beheading the court officials is equivalent to rebellion. Although Yin Jianhua is guilty, he must be dealt with by the Ministry of War.
