Chapter 128: Loyal Ministers? Gotta add money!

"It's easy to talk to smart people."

Wang Yue said with a smile.

Liu Qi looked at him with deep eyes......

"Don't look at me like that.

Even if we put aside the brotherly friendship, our interests are the same.

These wealthy dignitaries in Kaifeng City have gold, silver and jewelry at home, and even there are not a few people with a family fortune of millions, and hundreds of thousands are not in the forefront at all.

But what about those of us who guard the border?

The northwest is arid and barren, and growing food may not even make enough to eat.

Speaking of which, your Western Army families, in addition to eating empty salaries, really have nothing else to make money, but you have to take out most of the empty salaries to honor those civil officials and dignitaries in the capital, your Liu family still doesn't rely on constantly sending money to Gao Yu every year to keep their official positions? Without the protection of these people, if you dare to eat empty salaries, you will have to face the punishment of civil officials, to put it bluntly, these civil officials and the dignitaries in the capital are the shopkeepers who make money, and they make money for them with stigma and the resentment of the soldiers, and then follow a piece of the pie.

If something happens, you will take the blame for them. ”

Wang Yue said.

This is the essence of the army's empty salary.

The civil officials controlled the money and food, but it was inconvenient for the civil officials to reach out and take it directly, so they let these generals take it in the form of empty salaries, but after the latter took it, most of them had to honor the civil officials and the dignitaries of the capital.

And they provide protection to the generals.

In this way, the taxes looted by the imperial court from all over the country were transferred from the treasury to the pockets of officials.

It's the same whether it's Song or Ming.

The same is true of the Ming Dynasty, the general soldiers of the nine sides paid their salaries, and if they didn't leave the capital, they had to pay half less, and all of them went into the pockets of civil officials and eunuchs. Even after leaving the capital, they have to continue to divide, and the governors and eunuchs in various places and the eunuchs who supervise the army all have to have a share, and these are the ones who are divided by the generals at all levels. In the end, there was some scum left for the soldiers, but even the scum was not really all divided equally among the soldiers, and the big head had to be taken out to support those families, and the rest was given to the soldiers in the end.

But what if it's not enough?

Let the actual number of soldiers be less!

As for how much less, it depends on how much is left, and the more there is left, the more actual troops will be maintained, and the less left, the less actual troops will be maintained.

What to do when you need to use troops?

Hire a temporary worker!

What if a temporary worker can't fight?

That's the general's, they have a family or a personal soldier to protect them, just don't die on the battlefield! Even for civilian officials, it is their business whether the generals die or not, and they will be replaced when they die.

There was no difference between the Song and Ming dynasties on this point.

Or it's the same under the civil service.

The generals are just the gloves for civil officials and close ministers with eunuchs as the core to make money, even if we are like this in the Qing Dynasty, at most they just join those princes of the Eight Banners, but the principle of distribution is the same, anyway, the generals will not really eat the big head.

Then it's time for the big man of Qingtian to come out and fight the tiger!

"Then why can't we make a profit?"

Wang Yue said.

"I haven't been here, and you haven't seen me, so I have to stay as far away from you as possible in the future, and get close to you sooner or later to destroy your house!"

Liu Qi took a deep breath and said slowly.

After saying that, he turned around without hesitation and left as fast as he could.

Wang Yue's smug laughter sounded behind him.

Of course, Liu Qi will definitely do it, and Liu Yanqing will do it if he doesn't do it.

In fact, every Great Song Dynasty general will do it, there are so many wealthy dignitaries in the capital, and there are mountains of gold and silver treasures, since they can get it in their own hands, why not do it?

Wang Yue is a clear robbery, this must not be imitated, everyone is a real loyal minister, loyal ministers cannot engage in mutiny and looting, but loyal ministers have come to Qin Wang, and the court does not give a reward, doesn't it chill the hearts of loyal ministers? That is the fault of the imperial court, the imperial court has to give rewards to the loyal ministers of King Qin, and the thieves are very difficult to fight, so it is normal for the two sides to win and lose each other during this period.

Fighting!

There is no such thing as a triumphant all the time.

So if the loyal ministers win the battle, it is not right that the court will not reward them, right? If you win, you won't be rewarded, and it will chill the hearts of the soldiers.

And what about defeat?

If you lose, you have to give money to encourage you to fight again.

If you don't give money, the soldiers under them will collapse at the touch of a button if they don't have motivation, and even simply defect to the rebel army, as well as loot the people, in short, there will be more chaos, so that the continued failure will eventually lead to the rebel army entering the inner city to disturb the holy car.

So, you have to add money!

And then just like that, the generals of the Western Army were full of money one by one.

Who doesn't love gold and silver jewelry?

I have to say that Wang Yue is really perfect in teaching people to learn badly......

"Heaven does not give birth to Wang Yue, eternity is like a long night!"

Wang Yue roared like a convulsive.

"Wang Yue, get out!"

An angry scream suddenly rang out outside.

"Huh?"

Wang Yue hurriedly poked his head out.

Then I saw the little lady of the Zhang family standing under the tower with a murderous face, followed by Huahua, who looked at him with a strange smile, pulled out the small axe from his waist under his gaze, and handed it to the little lady of the Zhang family while looking at him.

"Little lady, what are you looking for the champion Hou? He is still locked up in a prison by traitors! ”

Wang Yue said.

"Let my daddy go!"

The little lady of the Zhang family shouted angrily.

Then she threw the small axe in her hand straight up, but the tower was too high, and the axe didn't even fly through the second layer before it smashed into the outer wall and fell.

"Who is Ling Zun?

Flowey, what do you want to do? ”

Wang Yueyi shouted rhetorically.

Huahua smiled and picked up a crossbow with an arm, then pulled it away, and loaded it with an arrow and handed it to the little lady of the Zhang family, who did not hesitate to raise the crossbow and aim it at Wang Yue......

"I said why did you change your sex, you want to treat that official master preferentially, it turns out that he still has a daughter!"

Flowey said.

"Nonsense, General Ben is obviously a good man because he respects him, so he doesn't want to embarrass him, what daughter is not a daughter, I have never known this little lady in my life, how do I know that he has such a daughter who is alluring the country and the city!"

Wang Yue angrily rebuked him.

"Then don't let my dad go!"

The little lady of the Zhang family said angrily.

"Ling Zun is a traitor's minions, and if he doesn't kill him, it's already a preferential treatment!"

Wang Yue said.

"How the hell are you going to let go!"

The little lady of the Zhang family said.

"Well, you know, I'm a lonely man!"

Wang Yue said with a smile.

"You told me that, too?"

Flowey said.

"Uh, what's wrong with me saying this, what's wrong with me, as a man who is still unmarried and doesn't even have a concubine, to say that he is lonely?"

Wang Yue said.

The little lady of the Zhang family gritted her teeth and stomped her foot......

"You let my father go, I'm at your mercy!"

She said.

"It's too hard for you, isn't it?"

Wang Yue said.

"I mean what I say, as long as you let my father go, I'll be at your mercy."

The little lady of the Zhang family said.

"You've got to cash in first, here's it!"

Wang Yue said.

"Here?"

The little lady of the Zhang family looked at Huahua.

"Don't worry about her, just let her watch from the side, Huahua, if you dare to go, I'll join you."

Wang Yue said.

The faces of the little lady of the Zhang family and Huahua turned red at the same time.

"It just so happens that there is no one else around, I like to be in the field the most, hurry up, hurry up, I can't wait!"

Wang Yue urged eagerly.

The little lady of the Zhang family was flushed and looked at him with hatred, but in the end she put down the crossbow, and then hesitated, untied the straps on her chest with trembling hands, lowered her head to look at her body, and gently took off her coat with a resolute face......

"Stop, what do you want to do?"

A righteous shout suddenly sounded overhead.

"In broad daylight, the little lady please respect herself!"

Wang Yueyi shouted rhetorically.

"You ......"

The little lady of the Zhang family raised her head and said in amazement.

"What am I?

I just want you to dance here, I'm a lonely man, but I'm also a self-disciplined man, I won't go to that kind of dirty place to do that kind of thing, I just want you to dance here with Huahua to prove her innocence.

What's going on in your head?

Who do you think of me?

I do admire the little lady, but the eldest husband is above board, how can he take advantage of the danger of others and use Lingzun to blackmail you to do that shameless thing? ”

Wang Yue's face was righteous and awe-inspiring, and he angrily reprimanded the little lady of the Zhang family who had already taken off her coat.

"Wang Yue, I'll kill you!"

The latter screamed in shame.

Immediately after that, she picked up the crossbow on the ground and gave Wang Yue an arrow.

Wang Yue hurriedly retracted into the tower.

"I'll get you arrows!"

Flowey's equally angry shouts came from below......
