Hearing Dai Jingbin say this, Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun were all stunned. There was also a chill in his heart, and the situation of Liu Yan's suppression of the rebellious soldiers before was now vivid.

At this time, they remembered Liu Yan's strength, not to mention his bird-gun soldiers, just his spearmen, rushing to kill, everyone's family members will also suffer heavy losses. Whether it is a two-to-one or a one-to-one exchange ratio, they can't afford to exchange more than a dozen families.

Moreover, Liu Yan only needs a few months, and he can train a large number of soldiers to come out, so what can everyone use to fight with Liu Yan?

Jiang Hongzhi was the most calm among the people, and his thoughts were also the most cautious, he thought for a while, and said: "It seems that the trouble must not be done, this is still a violation of military discipline, even if we are beheaded by the defense lord, we have nowhere to shout injustice, and we gave our lives in vain." ”

"Actually, I don't expect any food and salary from the defense lords, for so many years, how can we ever expect any food and salary from the DPRK or the guards? Don't they all rely on their own acres to raise soldiers? My biggest fear was that I heard bad news. ”

Zhang Xueyi and Zhang Wenqi both asked, "What news?" And what bad news! ”

Jiang Hongzhi said: "I heard that the defense lord has the intention, and in the next few days, he will break up all of our families, or reorganize a few new troops, or dismiss them on the spot. ”

Zhang Xueyi was furious and shouted: "Without these family members, what are we still with? These family members are all raised by us after hard work, and the defense lord is doing this to cut off our roots. ”

Even Dai Jingbin showed a solemn expression, lowered his head and pondered.

Zhang Xueyi muttered for a while, and he said to Dai Jingbin: "Master Dai, this is a major matter related to our life and death, what do you think?" ”

Dai Jingbin muttered: "This matter may be a rumor, I will go and confirm it to the adults." ”

After a while, he raised his head: "If this matter is serious......

Dai Jingbin hesitated for a moment, and then still didn't say it, just asked Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun to go back first and wait for their news.

Seeing this, the four of them had to go back in a huff, and on the way back, several people kept muttering indignantly, like four resentful women.

Dai Jingbin was in a very bad mood when he heard that Liu Yan was going to lay off the family, and when he returned home, he weighed it carefully, and then went straight to the Qianhu official hall, and after seeing Liu Yan, he said a few words with an ugly face.

Liu Yan understood a thing or two when he saw this, and said: "Lao Dai, if you have something, just say it directly, we don't have to go around the bend." ”

Seeing this, Dai Jingbin got straight to the point, clenched his fists and asked, "My lord, my subordinates have heard that my lord is going to abolish the family members of officers and officials in various departments?" I don't know if it's like this! ”

Liu Yan nodded with a smile and said, "This is indeed the case." ”

"Your Excellency, this must not be done!"

Liu Yan beckoned Dai Jingbin to sit down first, and then asked, "Why not?" ”

"Your Excellency should know that the family members are all trained by everyone with their own money and food, and they are all everyone's private soldiers, and they are not the soldiers and horses of the imperial court in the first place, and the adults have no right to interfere. Now that the adults are going to dismiss the family, isn't this bad for everyone? Let everyone think! ”

Liu Yan didn't expect that Dai Jingbin's reaction would be so big when it came to the dismissal of the family, so he was also a little dissatisfied in his heart, and said: "Fundamentally? Your roots should be military merit, not family! ”

Liu Yan frowned slightly, and said in an unkind tone: "This official knows that your subordinates have spent money and food, and they are your private soldiers. But you ask yourself, how much of the money and food spent on the family can stand up to inspection, how much of it is that is deducted from the soldiers of the military households, and how much of it is earned by yourself through the right path! ”

"In the final analysis, all of your family members are trained with greedy court money and food, what kind of private soldier is this!"

At this time, Dai Jingbin's face was white and red, and in the face of Liu Yan's questioning, he had prepared a statement that he had prepared, but now he couldn't say a word, and he sat on the chair and opened his mouth speechlessly, which was very uncomfortable.

"Humph!"

Liu Yan continued to say coldly: "Those big truths, I won't say much about this official today, I believe that Deputy Dai Qianhu understands, today's official only said one point: all the officers and scribes above and below the Qianhu in Xiahe Village, no one is allowed to practice the family, this is the iron law formulated by the official, and your existing family will also be disbanded on the spot within ten days, this matter cannot be carved!" ”

"The relevant documents for the abolition of the family will be posted today, and all the tunpu will also receive the documents within a day, and they will be done in one piece! If after ten days, there is no one whose family has not been laid off, then the time will not be ruthless! ”

Seeing that Liu Yan was so tough, Dai Jingbin also stood up suddenly, his face was full of unwillingness, but he didn't say a word, just stubbornly stalemate for a while, and then clasped his fists and saluted, turned around and left.

Liu Yan looked at Dai Jingbin's back, his face was also gloomy, he originally expected that once the family was abolished, there would definitely be many people who jumped out to make the right move, but he didn't expect that the first one to jump out was Dai Jingbin, the deputy Qianhu.

Liu Yan pondered for a while, and then called Miao Shao, a hundred households, and whispered something to Miao Shao.

Miao Shao's face changed instantly, and then he hugged his fists and took the order, and hurriedly rushed to execute.

The next day, Liu Yan really officially ordered the dismissal of the family members, and all the generals and civil officials above and below the Qianhu in Xiahe Village were not allowed to raise family members, and all family members must be dismissed within ten days, otherwise all officials regardless of their status will be dismissed on the spot. 33

If there are those who are willing to join the army, Liu Yan can select the best to integrate them into the army, and those who are unwilling to join the army will be paid severance pay by their respective generals, so that they can fend for themselves.

For a time, there were many complaints inside and outside the Qianqian Household Office in Xiahe Village.

That night, Dai Jingbin's house was brightly lit, Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun all rushed over, and their faces were ugly, everyone sat together, and in the middle was a heating stove, and everyone stared at the constantly jumping flames, silent.

After a long time, Zhang Xueyi saw that everyone had no intention of speaking, so he couldn't sit still, so he took the lead and said: "Lord Dai, today's defense lord has ordered the dismissal of the family, we can't wait any longer, everyone talk, what should we do?" ”

Zhang Wenqi also echoed: "On this day alone, many small flag officials and chief flag officials in the city of Qianhu have come over, and everyone is already crazy, let me wait and ask Lord Dai what his idea is, and what kind of preparation Lord Dai is going to make!" ”

Dai Jingbin looked around at everyone and said, "I have already said before, making trouble, that is a dead word, you all know it." ”

Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun looked at Dai Jingbin with dissatisfaction, and Jiang Hongzhi asked: "In this case, are you ready to dismiss your subordinates on the spot?" ”

"Of course not!"

Dai Jingbin said coldly: "After returning from the Qianhu Official Hall, I also thought about it, if I want to resist the decision of the defense lord to lay off the family, I can't take the old way of making trouble, but find another way!" ”

Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun suddenly came to their senses when they heard this, and Huang Rixun said with a smile: "I'll just say, how can you be a person who can be manipulated by others!" ”

"Speak quickly, my lord, I'll listen to my lord's dispatch!"

Dai Jingbin beckoned a few people to come forward, and then commanded in a low voice.

After finishing speaking, the faces of Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun became extremely ugly.

Zhang Xueyi said tremblingly: "My lord, think twice, if it is a troublesome and concealed matter, we may not be fine, but if we want to besiege and kill the defense adults, whether this matter is successful or not, we will not survive!" ”

Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun also nodded again and again, Dai Jingbin looked at the appearance of several people, couldn't help sneering, and said: "It was you who knew the news and came to me, and now I am ready to do a big job, and you are the ones who retreat!" Now that you know my plans, it's up to you to do it. ”

After speaking, Dai Jingbin shouted violently, and more than a dozen family members rushed in, all of them were holding bright waist knives in their hands, Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun were suddenly dumbfounded, and they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Seeing this, Dai Jingbin said: "Get up for me, if you follow me in this matter, your benefits will be indispensable after the matter is completed, I am the deputy thousand households, as soon as Liu Yan dies, the thousand households in front of this Xiahe Village are my world, and you will all go further." If you don't, then I will kill you today. ”

"Make a decision now!"

Faced with such a situation, Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun had no other choice, and immediately promised to follow Dai Jingbin to work together.

"Good! In two days, within two days, you will contact as many small flag officials, chief flag officials and civil officials as possible inside and outside the Thousand Households, and all those who have families must be encircled, as long as I do it here, you will gather all the families of the people and gather towards the hundred households of the Zhao family camp! ”

After speaking, Dai Jingbin ordered someone to take pens, ink, paper, and inkstones, and then wrote a "discussion form" and asked Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun to sign and draw on it.

After several people signed one after another, the original panic in their hearts actually dissipated a little, and was replaced by a trace of determination.

Zhang Wenqi said: "Master Dai, since you want me to do it together, it is better to tell me the content of the plan, and we will also know it well and fully cooperate with the adult's actions." ”

Dai Jingbin smiled and said, "You just need to know that I am going to besiege Liu Yan and the location is in the Zhaojiaying Hundred Households, and you don't need to know the rest of the things." ”

Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun muttered in their hearts, and said secretly: "Isn't this Dai Jingbin ready to use us as scapegoats?" ”

Dai Jingbin seemed to see through the hearts of several people, and said: "You don't have to think about it, since this matter is going to be done, I have already thought of a way to deal with the beginning and the end, and the person to be used to convict after the matter is completed has naturally been selected, of course, it will not be you." ”

Zhang Xueyi, Zhang Wenqi, Jiang Hongzhi, and Huang Rixun looked at each other, and then thought that this action was in the Zhaojiaying Hundred Households, so it was self-evident who the scapegoat was!

Some people died, but not completely......
