Chapter 337 Angel arrives

Hong Chengchou listened, but said nothing, just looked at the thieves on the north bank of the Yellow River.Basically, they are all old and weak, let them be slaughtered, without the slightest intention of resisting.It was also a little late, otherwise it would be much easier to attack halfway, and there would be no burden to kill them all.

But now, these people are more difficult to deal with.According to the wishes of the governor, these thieves have to be taken in and appeased.However, there is not much food in the first place, and these useless people keep it and pay for it.It's really better to give your generals more military exploits, not only to solve the food problem, but also to increase morale.

"Compassion doesn't command soldiers!" Hong Chengchou couldn't help sighing after watching for a while.

His generals were overjoyed when they heard this, and when they were about to thank him, they heard Hong Chengchou say: "Have you heard about Zunhua and Yongping?"

The generals were taken aback for a moment, not knowing why Zhong Cheng suddenly pulled away.

"Ma Shilong abandoned the people of Zunhua, and he was imprisoned for questioning. For the old and weak, the emperor not only sent troops to rescue them, but even limited the food in the whole city of the capital. He tried his best to save them." Hong Chengchou said to them, "If the news of today The imperial court, whoever strikes, will be the second Ma Shilong, believe it or not?"

Upon hearing this, his generals hesitated.However, they changed their minds, northern Shaanxi is so far away from the capital, and the emperor is so far away, so if he kills him, he will kill him, right?

Hong Chengchou looked at the eyes of the generals around him flickering, how could he not know what they were thinking, and then said: "We can plant spies among the thieves, but you can say that we have no factory guards in Yansui? So, don't think that you can hide it from the emperor. !"

He didn't dare to kill these people, because he was afraid that it wasn't Yang He, the governor of the three sides, but the emperor who was far away in the capital!Because even if the governor knows about it, there is nothing he can do about it. After all, he needs to suppress the bandits himself.

"Take them all to Guyuan and hand them over to the governor!" Hong Chengchou issued a cold-blooded order, and then sighed, "If the thieves sneak into Jin, I will definitely be impeached. Wait for the lawsuit!"

Seeing that Mr. Zhongcheng was in a bad mood, all the generals under his command dared not say anything.With such a result, they are not in a good mood.Turning around to look at those thieves, if they were taken to Guyuan, how many of them would survive?
At this moment, a fast horse came galloping from a distance, and when it came to Hong Chengchou, he rolled his saddle off his horse and shouted loudly: "Report to Mr. Zhongcheng, the imperial envoys have arrived to escort the military pay. Please go back immediately to receive the order!"

Hearing this, everyone's faces became happy. The word "military salary" is like chicken blood, refreshing and exciting.

Hong Chengchou was also happy, he didn't expect that the military salary promised before would come down so quickly.So, without further delay, he led the army back immediately.As for the thieves, they were escorted by the infantry.

In the important town of Yulin, in the lobby of the governor's yamen, wooden boxes are neatly placed.The halls and halls were full of Jinyiwei captains and Dongchang soldiers holding sword handles, while the original Yansui soldiers could only retreat to the second line.

However, these soldiers were not dissatisfied at all, on the contrary, they were all very excited, and they didn't even have the military discipline that Hong Chengchou showed when he was there, and they whispered from time to time.

"It's really a military pay this time, hehe, it's really rare!"

"That's right, since the third year of Apocalypse, there has been basically no military pay. It's really not easy to wait!"

"But have you noticed, these boxes shouldn't hold much silver, right?"

"Be content, it's good to have a military salary!"

"..."

After an unknown amount of time, Hong Chengchou finally arrived, and the angel, accompanied by the left-behind officials of the governor's office, immediately began to read the imperial edict.

As previously announced, this is for military pay.In addition, the local government of Shaanxi is required to concentrate manpower on the construction of water conservancy projects under the coordination of senior officials with military and political powers such as the governor and governors of various places.For example, Zhengguoqu, Baiqu, Chengguoqu, etc., and the method of promoting well irrigation, reaffirming the importance of drought resistance!
Of course, the famous ditches in Shaanxi are not mainly located in northern Shaanxi.However, the decree also made it clear that the relocation of the victims would be unfavorable. According to the principle of local drought relief, human resources should be concentrated to fight the drought.

Hong Chengchou was a little surprised when he heard that, the court was obviously not just talking.The release of this decree should have been inquired about in advance.If this matter really succeeds, it would be a countermeasure against the Shaanxi civil uprising.

After reading out the imperial decree, the angel withdrew the rest of the generals, leaving only Hong Chengchou to read out a secret decree.

The content of this secret decree surprised Hong Chengchou again.He didn't expect that the imperial court would focus on the Hetao Plain, and asked him to find a way to find out the situation of the grassland in order to prepare for future plots on the Hetao Plain.

After the angel finished reading the secret decree, he urged to hand over the military salary.From the point of view, the military salary this time is about 300 million taels.It is half of the reported arrears over the years.Watching the angel command to open those boxes for handover.Both Hong Chengchou and his generals were a little surprised. Just such a small box can hold 300 million taels of silver. How much has been lost, at least half of it?
But when the box was opened, Hong Chengchou and others were extremely surprised.What they saw was not white silver taels, but small sheets of paper neatly stacked there.

"Why is it a Daming banknote? What's the use of it? I quit!" Mi Zhi defended He Renlong with a bad temper, regardless of the presence of the angel, regardless of the presence of the factory guards, and regardless of the presence of the Shangguan, he lost his temper on the spot!

When Hong Chengchou heard this, he immediately sternly reprimanded: "Bold, the angel is here, don't be rude!"

After he finished scolding, he smiled and said to the angel: "This guy is called He Crazy, a vulgar warrior, and please ask the angel to have a lot, so don't worry about him."

After finishing speaking, he glared at He Renlong again, forcing He Renlong to cup his fists reluctantly and confess to the angel.

The expected military salary turned out to be just a pile of waste paper.Not to mention these warriors, even Hong Chengchou himself was very dissatisfied.It's just that the place where the angel represents is the imperial court and the emperor. As a governor, he still has to maintain the majesty of the angel.

Unexpectedly, when the angel and the factory guards heard this, there was a trace of disdain on their faces, the kind of despise for country bumpkins.I saw that the angel ignored He Renlong at all, pointed to those boxes and said: "You are really ignorant, this is not a worthless Daming banknote, this is a Daming banknote that can be exchanged for real gold and silver. Anyone, as long as they hold If this Ming paper money goes to the Central Bank of Ming Dynasty, it can be exchanged for the amount of silver indicated on the paper money."

Seeing the bewildered faces of these Shaanxi people, the sense of superiority on the angel's face became stronger, "I tell you, these banknotes are more popular than silver taels in the capital. Buy things with banknotes in the capital, or go to inns and restaurants. There are many discounts available.”

Whoever made Yansui's King Qin army collapsed halfway, when the governor of Yansui heard the news, he was frightened to death on the spot, so there was a vacancy for Hong Chengchou to take over.It is also because of this that many news about the capital are unknown to northern Shaanxi.
