In the east city of Jinan City, in the Shandong military barracks, the guerrilla Mu Wenshou in Shandong Town was helpless against the current situation.

The chief soldier of Leiden kept saying that he acted in accordance with His Majesty's holy order, directly killed Ni Chong, and took the deputy chief soldier to pray for Kuan, and locked himself and others in the barracks.

As Ni Chong's cronies, Mu Wenshou clearly knew that Ni Chong's deduction of military salaries was true, but the matter of colluding with Dongyu was completely false.

Embezzling military salaries, what's the matter? In these years, which military leader does not deduct military salaries, although our Shandong army can't defeat the Tartars and rogues, but we don't have the slightest heart for Your Majesty and the court!

Tang Shao, the official of the hundred households, asked worriedly, "General Mou, now that Ni Shuai and General Qi have been taken by the Leiden soldiers, and our battalion is cut off from traffic by the Leiden soldiers, how do you say we should deal with it?" ”

"How does Lao Tzu know?" Mu Wenshou replied angrily.

According to the brothers who fled back, there are seven or eight hundred Manchurian soldiers in the hands of the Li Xingzhi, and the Manchurian soldiers are not their opponents.

Li Bangjie, another hundred-household official, said with a smile: "Brother Tang, don't worry, I estimate that Li Dashuai will not do anything to us, if he wanted to dispose of us, he would have surrendered our weapons a long time ago, where would he let the brothers bring their weapons back to the camp." ”

"You know what a fart, the Battle of Gaoyang, nearly 20,000 Manchurian soldiers attacked wildly for several days, and they were cut down by more than 1,000 by that Li Xingzhisheng, and Abatai couldn't get away, he can still take us seriously."

Li Bangjie was originally the leader of the bandits in Qingzhou, and his work was very good, Ni Pet suppressed a few times, and lost a lot of soldiers and horses, but he didn't even touch Li Bangjie's side, but lost the soldiers and generals, so he changed the suppression to Fu, sealed the official and made a wish, and was recruited to the army as the former battalion supervisor.

"Ahh

Li Bangjie is illiterate, after Zhao'an, he sleeps in flowers and willows every day, stays in the Qinglou all the year round, is a little peach tonight, a plum branch tomorrow night, changes a new house every day, and is a groom every day, and he doesn't care about the affairs of the court at all. He had heard of Gao Yang's victory, but this Li Xingzhi had cut off more than a thousand Tartar heads, and he really didn't know.

Now when I hear Tang Shao talk about Li Xingzhi's martial arts, I am shocked.

Mu Wenshou sighed: "Don't quarrel, now there is only one way to respond to all changes, let the brothers be vigilant, and then you can only see the move!" ”

As the saying goes, the snake can't do it without a head, the Shandong army general Zuo nested in the barracks, you say, I say, I can't unify opinions at all, I have no choice, I have to follow Mu Wenshou's words, eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink, say something unpleasant, damn the bird to the sky, immortal for thousands of years.

However, what should come is always coming, and around the hour of the night, the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the military camp of Shandong Town.

The officers and men of Shandong Town, who were already anxious, suddenly became nervous, and Mu Wenshou, Tang Shao, and others looked through the window to see that hundreds of cavalry had rushed into the barracks with open fire.

"Mother, tell the brothers to be on guard, these dog-day Lyden soldiers are about to do it."

As soon as Tang Shao picked up the saber beside him, he shouted, not only Tang Shao, but more than 1,500 soldiers in the barracks also picked up swords and spears, and no one wanted to be killed like this.

However, something happened to them, and after the cavalry entered the school ground, a large number of infantry drove into the barracks, lit dozens of fires around the school field, illuminated the entire school field, and then divided into several teams and lined up around the school field with swords and spears.

Immediately afterwards, another group of officials brought seven or eight heavy large boxes, and after putting the boxes down, the officials picked up the tin horn and shouted.

"Brothers in Shandong Town, General Soldier Leiden checked the evidence of Ni Chong's crime today and found that our Shandong Army has been in arrears for nearly two years."

"His old man spoke, saying that our brothers have repeatedly appeared thieves and thieves for the country, and there is no merit and hard work, so take out your own body and silver to make up for the lack of money, everyone don't be afraid, come out and get the silver!"

After that, the yacha opened the boxes that were brought in one by one.

The school field is not far from the barracks, and the Shandong army in the camp can see it clearly, and the box is really full of shiny silver, which is particularly dazzling in the firelight.

Li Xingzhi took the loudspeaker of the yacha and said loudly: "Brothers in Shandong Town, Ben Shuai has no malice, Ni Pet is guilty, the crime is Ni Pet alone, you can go out of the camp in an orderly manner, today Ben Shuai is emptying his family, and he also has to make up for the military salary for the brothers." ”

The Shandong troops in the camp looked at each other, and then their eyes lit up, this Li Dashuai really said that he would do it, and he would pay us today.

Under the temptation of silver, the bold little flag and the general flag walked towards the school with the soldiers of the headquarters.

Mu Wenshou, Tang Shao and others are also puzzled, they are not stupid, they do not know the military salary of those pacesetters in the governor Yamen, the Shandong army has seven yuan a month, even if it is made up for one year, it will cost eight or nine taels, and these more than 1,000 officers and soldiers are afraid that they will not be given nearly 10,000 taels of silver.

As the saying goes, the mouth of eating people is short, and the hands of people are short, this silver is so easy to take?

"Don't go!"

Looking at the officers and soldiers who were about to move, Mu Wenshou hurriedly shouted.

However, his words have no effect at all, you generals don't have to worry about food and clothing, we big-headed soldiers can't open the pot at home for a long time, and now Li Dashuai is handing out silver, which is a solution to the urgent need.

Mu Wenshou couldn't stop the soldiers under his command, so he had to follow him into the school field.

After these soldiers from Shandong Town entered the school field, they did not form a team, but a pile in the east and a pile in the west, nesting there and whispering.

Li Xingzhi frowned, and suddenly pulled out his knife and said: "Is this how you usually lead the army's salary, now give the whole team to the general, within a pillar of incense, if there are still people who do not obey military discipline like this, then give Lao Tzu to get out of the barracks, and the secretary of the army will bring the roster, and when the whole team is completed, the commander will personally pay the salary." ”

Li Xingzhi was furious, and the Manchurian cavalry under the stage all drew their swords and guarded, and the Jingbei soldiers who surrounded them also raised their swords and spears one by one.

In any era, carrots and sticks are powerful weapons to deter people's hearts.

Under the intimidation of the long knife and the temptation of silver, the soldiers of Shandong Town completed the whole team according to the usual formation in half a pillar of incense.

Soon.

The clerk came to Li Xingzhi with the roster and respectfully took out the roster.

"You come to the roll call, and whoever you name will come to Ben Shuai to get the money."

"Whoa! Subordinates receive orders! ”

In the army, those who can be secretaries must be literate and literate, and in this era of nobility and military deity, those who are willing to go to the army to beg for a living must have eyes.

"Wang Gouzi, if you owe your salary for thirteen months, you should pay nine taels and one yuan for the military salary, and you will be thirteen hundred!"

"In!" One of the people in the queue came out in response, and then cautiously ran to the platform.

Li Xingzhi raised his eyes and glanced at Wang Gouzi, and instructed Song Guangkun beside him: "Weigh ten taels of silver to him first, and as for the grain owed, it will be repaid to his home tomorrow." ”

"Thank you for your handsome reward! Li Dashuai lived a long life of 100 years, and the prince was forever! Wang Gouzi kowtowed incessantly to thank him, usually the Shandong army paid salaries, but it was to be discounted by seven, and when he arrived at Li Dashuai, not only the silver was paid in full, but also an extra nine coins.
