Ming dynasty grand dude

"Being honored by His Majesty's kindness, I should spare my life to serve the country!"

Alas~!The most troublesome thing about this fucking Ming Dynasty is that it always has to be righteous to itself.

Zhang Lun actually wanted to say, labor and capital just want to chop off the heads of those dogs and return them as chamber pots!

However, if you say this, then it is estimated that there will be a lot of trouble in the future...

Cao Feng let out a long sigh and made a long bow to Zhang Lun, without another word.

Zhang Lun turned around and got on his horse, leading his old soldiers, and quickly left the Chen family compound amidst shouts.

The son of the Chen family, He Daguan, was also taken away by him.

"All those heads are put away, and the Chen family's accomplices will be tried again at another day!"

Cao Feng looked at Chen Guanyu's head on the ground, feeling disgusted in his heart.

"Let's say to the outside world that Chen Guanyu hooked up Japanese pirates to kill Wang's family, and Mr. Yu pursued him to Chen's family. He was shamelessly attacked by Mr. Yu and was beheaded by Mr. Yu's sword!"

Zhang Lun has gone far. If he has not gone far, he must praise Cao Feng: It is worthy of two official words, anyway, it is reasonable!Awesome!

Chen's courtyard was not too far away from Taohuawu, and the group of people returned to Taohuawu after only two or three quarters of horse riding.

Datong Feilong Liangchao had already taken his 300-person brothers to stand quietly in front of Taohuawu, waiting for Zhang Lun and the others to return.

Fortunately, this group of people still obeyed the rules, they just lined up outside the door but did not do anything else.

This surprised Zhang Lun, he didn't expect that these people would have such discipline even if they were all gangsters.

"Even though the little ones have fallen into the grass, the practice will continue..."

Seeing Zhang Lun's return, Feilong stood up and bowed to Zhang Lun on one knee: "These little brothers are all good guys! They just lack a chance to prove themselves!"

Chapter 69 If you want to make him die, you must pay a lot of money first

But Fat Longdan knelt down on the other knee, kowtowed to Zhang Lun and said, "I just ask my little father-in-law to give you a chance and let you fight for a chance to survive!"

Zhang Lun let out a long sigh and dismounted, walked up to Feilong and helped him up.

Looking at the dark crowd in the night, he said in a deep voice, "Since I'm with you, I won't let you work hard for nothing!"

Speaking of Zhang Lun began to announce the rules, the first thing he said was how much money to give them.

In Zhang Lun's concept, if people are willing to work hard consciously and voluntarily, they have to pay enough money.

Of course, Zhang Lun, who is considered a newcomer to these people, cannot give them money like the old soldiers of the Zhang family did.

Each of these people has two taels per month, which is a fixed salary.If the battle is won, each person will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and the injured will receive another two taels of silver.20 taels of silver for the disabled, and 20 taels of silver for the dead and burned!

As soon as Zhang Lun's voice fell, the group of water bandits who followed Feilong "buzzed..." exploded!

You must know that the price Zhang Lun gave is not low at all, and the Anjia silver that Yingzong recruited soldiers was only five taels.

Moreover, there was no salary for the recruits. They only distributed four buckets of miscellaneous grains every month, exempted two members of their family from corvee labor, and paid five shi of tax grain.

The officers and soldiers don't care if you are wounded or disabled in the fight, at most you will be burned and buried if you die.

But burning and burying silver, it would be nice to give eighty-two taels.Just this is often deducted by the Shangguan...

Naturally, these guard soldiers cannot be compared with the old guards of the Zhang family. Most of the old guards of the Zhang family started their business with the old Zhang family.

Generations of people have been serving and working hard for the Zhang family, and almost all of them are men who have been killed from the Nine Borders.

Even if Zhang Lun is currently being besieged by the main force of the Tartars outside the pass, these people are definitely the masters who fought desperately to snatch him out, and no one will retreat.

So their salary is as high as ten taels, and from time to time Zhang Mao and Zhang Lun will give some rewards and arrange ways for them to make money.

They have become one with the old Zhang family, and they are both prosperous and prosperous, and they are all damaged.It can be said that he is a loyal diehard of the old Zhang family.

This is the same as the servants raised by Li Chengliang and Wu Sangui's family later. In ancient times, it was not the entire army that the generals relied on to go out into battle, but his own soldiers and servants.

These talents are really raised professional fighters!

Those who can fight and dare to kill, even if they die in battle, are the only ones who don't take a step back.

Most of the military salaries of the later generals on Nine Sides were basically used to support their own soldiers and servants. Li Chengliang had tens of thousands of soldiers at the time, but in fact he only really relied on the [-] servants.

Those who are excellent in riding, archery and fighting are selected from the whole army and are called "athletes".

Then "everyone who raises healthy children can do what he likes. All clothes, food, children's mansions, and Hulu narrow evils will be used to help them, and they will be given if there is any, but it is only to kill the captives to make meritorious deeds."

Nurhachi was shocked when he saw the three thousand servants at the time. Li Chengliang died three years before he dared to award the "Seven Great Hatreds" and directly turned against Daming.

Why did Wu Sangui dare to lead twenty family members to rush to save his father? !

Because his twenty servants are professional fighters, the Wu family donated houses, helped to marry each other, gave rice to reward silver..., and when it comes time to fight to the death, these servants are the core of their lineup!

"Young master... you... are you telling the truth?!" Fat Long felt his voice trembling, and he could even hear the throats of those old brothers behind him rolling.

A large group of them work as nursing homes for the Chen family, and their monthly collective salary is only 20 taels, and they have to buy a lot of food and transport it to the water village.

The miscellaneous money collected in the water village is barely enough for everyone to get their fill...

In fact, they didn't have much silver in their hands, but they didn't dare to leave the water village.

They all know their identities. If there is no deterrence from the water village, the Chen family will sell them directly to the government, and they will die without knowing how.

Zhang Lun was also lazy to explain to the fat dragon, this thing is more realistic than an explanation.

However, he directly called Xiao Zhou's housekeeper over and asked him to unseal the money in several boxes, and directly distributed a month's salary on the spot.

b

r "The ugly words are in front of the head. If you go to the battle and want to escape, one will be killed on the spot!"

Zhang Lun stared at these water bandits who received the money in batches, and said in a deep voice, "Now you are divided into groups, and you will form a team with my family's old soldiers!"

"Get up at Mao tomorrow and get ready, and set off at Chen time! Follow me to the beach and kill a group of Japanese pirates first, let me see how good you are!"

But Zhang Lun paused for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "If it's just a fake, you can leave now. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Please rest assured, my little father-in-law, you guys still have the ability to charge into battle and kill thieves if you don't have other skills!"

The scar on Feilong's excited face was shining brightly, he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "If there is someone who runs away, I don't need the little prince to do it, I will chop him up myself!"

"Willing to die for the little father-in-law!!" A large number of water bandits couldn't be more excited, two taels of silver!

Not to mention the servants of the chief soldier and general, this is even higher than Xiaoqi's salary!If you fight a battle, you can get another two taels.

Two taels more for injuries, 20 taels of silver for crippled and dead bodies!Is there any better treatment than this? !

At this time, there are more than ten taels and one mu of good paddy fields, and after a year of frugality, you can save money for one mu of money.

Serve the little father-in-law well for three to five years, save some money and save a little money to buy a few acres of good land and then marry a daughter-in-law. The day is beautiful!

"Let's rest first, we still need to kill the thieves tomorrow morning!" Zhang Lun waved his hand, and housekeeper Xiao Zhou began to arrange for these water bandits to camp in Taohuawu for a temporary rest.

Then it is to organize the veterans to register the silver taels they deserve, and then calculate the number of boxes of gold and silver seized from the Japanese pirates and the Chen family this time...

It's a joy to be busy, but Housekeeper Xiao Zhou is very happy!

After my little father-in-law can earn so much money, can the benefits of the Zhang family be reduced? !Look at the rewards my little father-in-law gave to the servants, that's a big deal!

Thinking about his own future, Housekeeper Xiao Zhou was extremely excited!

Sure enough, after a while Miao An came to call Housekeeper Xiao Zhou to see the young master.

On the one hand, Zhang Lun called the butler Xiao Zhou to ask him to offer a reward of 200 taels of silver, and by the way, he also beat him so that he would not accept other people's money so as not to lose the conversation.

In the future, if you want to make money, you can tell yourself, but you must never take other people's money.

Housekeeper Xiao Zhou patted his chest to assure the young father-in-law that he was determined not to take bribes from others and to serve the young father-in-law wholeheartedly.

Zhang Lun smiled and beat to appease him for a while, then let the housekeeper Xiao Zhou retreat by himself, and then called Zhang Long and Zhang Meng in to start arranging tomorrow's combat matters.

After this night of fighting, the old soldiers have already recognized the ability of their young father-in-law.

After all, it was the mules or the horses who came out for a walk, first killed the Japanese pirates, then fought in the Wang family's compound, and finally ambushed the Chen family's convoy to decide the battle in one fell swoop.

Zhang Lun has already shown his commanding ability, and the old soldiers are naturally willing to follow his command.

After making arrangements like this, Zhang Long and Zhang Meng asked some details to confirm before leaving the room.

Zhang Lun was also tired from this night's fight, he took off his clothes and fell asleep on the bed under Miao An's service...

Chapter 70 Letters show my heart, I go to the thief

When he said he got up at Maoshi, Zhang Lun really opened his eyes at Maoshi.

Miao An fights overnight, but sleeps in his clothes without taking off his armor. The three hundred water bandits outside Taohuawu are newly joined hands. Miao An can't believe it.

She only believed that the Xiuchun knife in her hand could protect her young master.

Seeing his young master waking up, Miao An quickly started to help Zhang Lun put on his armor and put on his clothes, but Zhang Lun didn't go out directly.

Instead, Miao An started to study ink, and he wanted to write a letter to his grandfather Hongzhi.

In this letter, there is no playfulness or the previous lightness, and it is replaced by more dignified.

Zhang Lun truthfully told the truth from the time he received the police report from the prefect of Cao Zhifu to the time he went to the Wang family compound, and when he saw the miserable corpses in the courtyard, he beheaded the violent Japanese pirates in anger...

Then he went to the Chen family overnight to overthrow the Chen family in one fell swoop, exposing the fact that he was in collusion with the Japanese pirates.

Speaking of which, I have decided to take the three hundred water bandits in Suzhou and lead my own old soldiers to ambush the Japanese pirates who landed in the name of the Chen family son before the news of the Chen family's extermination is leaked!

One of the principles of dealing with old foxes is not to try to play tricks on you.

Those are old guys who have been playing for an unknown number of years, especially those who have been in court for a long time. Who hasn't experienced many years of ups and downs in the officialdom? !

The best way to face these old guys is to say what you want, you don't have to say it but you must not think that your little cleverness can fool them.

Most of the time people are just watching you perform, when they really want to pick you up...

You will find that the little cleverness you played in front of them has been seen through long ago, and they are just watching your clown performance...

Therefore, Zhang Lun expressed his thoughts to Emperor Hongzhi very straightforwardly, plainly, and transparently in the letter.

For these old foxes, your sincerity may not be able to exchange for sincerity, but your sincerity can at least protect you from being attacked by him before you infringe on his interests.

For Emperor Hongzhi, who has been fighting wits and courage with his courtiers for more than ten years, the word "sincerity" is even more important!

The Suzhou Garrison was already corrupted, and even more than [-] real and fake Japanese pirates frightened two hundred households to take the lead in fleeing, and hundreds of soldiers were like bereaved dogs.

The large maritime merchants have now colluded with Japanese pirates to form a harmful situation. If it continues to develop, the situation will be unimaginable.

If he hadn't seen the tragedy of the Wang family, maybe the nephew just felt sorry for him and paid tribute to him.

However, the lives of hundreds of people were lost in front of my nephew, and the cruel methods of those Japanese pirates humiliating them made my nephew feel angry.

Is it just to kill some thieves and overthrow the Chen family? !

It's fine if my nephew doesn't have this kind of martial arts, but after learning this kind of martial arts, he tolerates such evil thieves who hurt the people of our empire...

Then how will you face my Zhang family's ancestors in the future? !How can he have the face to eat incense from his descendants in the ancestral hall? !What qualifications do you have to receive the uncle's salary? !

This time the battle is only in the name of my nephew, and the recruiters are all soldiers of the water bandits.

If it is defeated, it is my nephew's incompetence, and if it is a fluke, it is my great Ming Weiyi Lai Shishu who is wise!

My nephew went here to repay his determination to kill the thief, and vowed not to kill the leader of the enemy chief and not return!

More than [-] taels of silver were paid from the Chen family of the Japanese pirates, and the nephew first paid for military expenses.

The guardhouse has been completely corrupted, and the army is urgently needed to be restructured as the barrier of the empire.

This time, my nephew used this as funds to carry out a small-scale trial reform. If it succeeds, he can report to his uncle and the cabinet for more participation and gradually implement it.

If defeated, the left and right are only more than [-] taels of silver, and it is enough for the nephew to write a few story books for the uncle to fill in.

It is imperative to kill the thief this time, my nephew is determined!

Without the lives and blood of those Japanese pirates, it would be impossible to extinguish the fire in my nephew's heart, and it would be impossible for my nephew to face those pairs of despairing eyes in the tragedy of the Wang family...

The letter to my elder father is much simpler. First, I said that I chopped off the heads of a few Japanese pirates this night to earn face for our old Zhang family.

Let my father not have to worry about himself.

Then he talked about the tragedy of the Wang family and what he saw at that time.

In the end, I made a simple conclusion: If you don't kill a few thieves, your grandson will not be able to understand his thoughts in this life after all.

The elder father was worried that the grandson was unfilial. After this adventure, the grandson must be filial to the elder father when he returns home and never take such a risk again.

After writing the letter, Zhang Lun called Tang Bohu to let him keep the letter, and asked him to notify the prefect of Suzhou to transfer the money to Neng to the capital.
