"Questions?"

"The money has been dropped."

"The general believes me! The last general has never left day and night, sleeping on the box when he sleeps, and dares to guarantee with his life! ”

Zhao Yan panicked, don't talk nonsense about losing his head!

He suddenly felt that it was a good thing to have a guard staring at him.

Although I don't know where it is, the guards who have been monitoring them all the way can prove that no one has touched the silver at all.

"Ben will believe you."

Meng said in a deep voice: "If you did it, you would have run away a long time ago, and you will also send the fake salary and silver pressure over, do you deceive me blind?" Take your qi back, you are no match for this general. ”

Zhao Yan smiled, he did have the intention of making a move when he saw that the situation was not good, feeling the coercion of the realm gap, and muttered in a low voice: "This kind of strength is still wearing heavy armor, don't you feel too bored?" ”

"What?"

"The last general said that General Meng's eyes are like torches, and as soon as he opens the box, he knows that something is wrong with the silver!"

Meng Zhong snorted coldly, others often praise him for his wisdom like a torch, after all, his whole body is heavily armored, and only his eyes are exposed.

He took out a handful of silver from the box and scraped open the outer layer, revealing the iron tire inside: "A few days ago, a messenger reported that there was a high-ranking official who was greedy for the treasury and exchanged all the silver for iron tire silver. ”

Zhao Yan subconsciously said: "That's my father..."

Meng Zhong was stunned for a moment, and put the silver back in the box: "I can't trust you now." ”

Zhao Yan: "Hehe..."

"General Zhao comes with me to meet the good sons of the Northland!"

With a wave of his hand, he was going to lead Zhao Yan and Tie Tiyin to see the world together.

Zhao Yan suddenly felt in his heart for no reason: "General Meng wants to follow the affairs of Wei Wu in the previous dynasty?" Borrow a certain head? ”

"Don't worry, in this northern land, your good head is worth no one!" Meng Zhong laughed and dragged Zhao Yan away.

The two met with the soldiers who had already assembled.

Everyone saw the big box of silver taels behind Meng Zhong, and their eyes lit up.

"Soldiers! Your Majesty saw that we had been guarding the border for many years, so I deliberately took out the silver money from the inner treasury and used it as a reward for the army! ”

Meng Chong's voice is rough and not loud, but as long as you spread out a little qi, you can spread the sound to everyone's ears.

"I even feel stronger than the ordinary second grade, and I deserve to be a man who has been guarding the Great Wall for decades."

Zhao Yan thought in his heart, or big fists are the last word, if he can get on the top of the line, the world is big, he can get it, he vaguely knows a little, Dad, no, the chaotic thief Zhao Mouliang, just wants to improve his strength, so he has an affair with Mengren.

Meng Zhong began to exaggerate the emotions:

"Soldiers! It has been ten years since His Majesty ascended the throne, and in ten years, ....."

Basically, it is the same old thing, preaching how diligent and thrifty the little emperor is, but such a little emperor does not hesitate to reward the soldiers, and also specially allocates money from the internal money saved by the thrift.

In this way, a great contrast is formed.

This set of rhetoric has been repeated by Meng Zhong for five years, and at most he will change the time, anyway, the big-headed soldiers will eat this set.

"It's not the same time it used to be."

Meng Chong's voice suddenly changed: "There are thieves in the treasury, and there are traitors in the court!" ”

"Therefore, our salaries will be delayed for a few days, and we will not be able to escort them until the Ministry of Households has cleared the treasury."

"Your Majesty can't bear it, so he deliberately allocated money from the treasury to pay the salary, but this silver was also worried by the thieves!"

He asked his soldiers to open the box, and when he pushed it, the white silver was sprinkled on the ground.

A few of the close pawns stepped forward to take a look.

, fake.

Bite it, damn it, iron it.

These pawns became popular when they landed:

"General, where's the silver!!"

"These days, people come to commit crimes every day, mostly seven times a night! The brethren have never even slept soundly! ”

"Several of them have broken arms and legs, just waiting for the silver to save their lives!"

"General, I'm stupid, I only know silver, and when I see silver, I have the bottom in my heart!"

"If the court doesn't give money, how can you go into battle to kill the enemy?"

"I heard all the Meng people who rushed to die, and their leader said, why don't we even give out silver after sacrificing cattle and sheep!"

"General, can you give me an accurate word? Is the court out of money, is there a corrupt official who fills his pockets!! ”

"Is this the court we guarded from under the iron hooves of the Mengren??! What are we guarding? ”

The lack of pay is not a small problem, there was a Wuqiao mutiny in the previous dynasty, because the salary and silver were not timely, which led to a mutiny, and the mutinous soldiers pulled out the governor and beat him, and directly turned into a rebel, and almost succeeded.

There was a commotion, and Zhao Yan was scared, for fear that Meng Zhong would follow Wei Wu's story on the spot and borrow his head to stabilize the army's heart.

Meng Zhong didn't say a word, and the soldiers who were shouting, arguing and arguing, suddenly found themselves separated.

The soldiers were very tacitly divided into two distinct circles, the outer circle was the soldiers who did not make a noise or complain, and the inner circle was the soldiers who picked up the silver and forced to chatter.

At this time, Meng Zhong spoke:

"Zuo Qianhu, let's do it, they are all brothers who have fought side by side with Ben Jiang, give them a good time."

As soon as the words fell, a group of clothed guards appeared out of nowhere.

The sword flashed, blood stained the earth, and the sky darkened at some point, as if it was going to rain.

Meng Zhong slowly stepped forward, looked at the corpses all over the ground, and saw a familiar one: "Cheng real name, transferred to the north a year ago, at first I was not used to crying about the climate, and I was a little rich, but I killed Meng people, more ruthless than anyone else, the six-grade cultivation, and even injured the five-grade general, the general also thought about accepting you as a personal soldier." ”

Meng Zhong squatted down, his heavy armor making the squatting action a little difficult, and he reached out and closed the corpse's eyes.

Zhao Yan was stunned, what the hell is going on?

"Isn't that weird?"

"A good son on the border never takes money to do things."

Meng Zhong looked at the bright red Daqian Dragon Banner on the Great Wall: "Daqian has no military service, and in the bitter cold land of the north, only the people called by this banner will come." ”

A rustic soldier beside him said with a smile:

"General Zhao, don't you know, none of us are rushing for silver, let alone sending it late, as long as you can eat enough, it's okay if you don't send it!"

"When there was a famine a few decades ago, we were all going to be eaten!"

"Now we have food in store at home, our father, mother, brothers and sisters can eat enough, and our days are getting better and better day by day, and Your Majesty governs the world well!"

"Your Majesty allows us to eat enough, and when there is hope for the future, we will help him guard his home!"

Zhao Yan understood that the soldiers who were shouting just now were all internal ghosts.

The purpose is to use the lack of pay to cause the soldiers to mutiny, the morale of the defenders is low, the formation is difficult, the cloud is limited, if the Meng people have masters, not bound by luck, and even one person can break through the barrier, and the horse steps on the Great Wall.

"It seems that the frequent border offenses by the Meng people are also for the sake of internal and external cooperation, so that the soldiers have more negative emotions, but it is a pity that they don't understand what a big cadre border army is."

Solving the inner ghost, Meng Zhong was not much happier: "Among them, there was a soldier who was transferred two years ago, and he was dormant for two years, which shows that the people behind him have a deep plan, but I am afraid that it is just the beginning, and after ten years of cultivation, Meng Ren has accumulated enough strength and wants to go to war." ”

In the distance, smoke rose from the beacon tower.
