Chapter Ninety-Three: Bow Your Head Helplessly
After the voice below came up, both the soldiers on the city wall who were originally defending the city were stunned, and many people looked at each other, with a look of disbelief in their eyes.
"No, the Yamen of the Ministry of War doesn't even give money to others, and these adults don't look at soldiers as people, right?"
"What's going on, according to the rules, doesn't it mean that not only the silver must be issued before the pull-out, but also the salary owed over the years must be repaid, why don't you even give a little silver to others, this is too much, right?"
Listening to the whispers around him, Liao Yongquan's already gloomy face darkened, he swept around with his eyes, and found that most of the people who were whispering were those soldiers guarding the city, the status of the warriors in recent years was too low, and almost all of these soldiers guarding the city were a group of bitter haha, and their lives were tight, at best, they were slightly stronger than the military households in the guard, and now they heard that the yamen of the military department treated the soldiers of the thousand households so harshly, and they were also concerned.
In fact, not only them, but even the faces of the battalion soldiers brought by Xu Hongji changed slightly after hearing it, Liao Yongquan is simply blatantly against the soldiers all over the world, so who else will defend the country and kill the enemy in the future. Although the battalion soldiers are not in the same system as the sergeants outside, when they heard that the military department did not care about the lives of the soldiers, they couldn't help but feel a feeling of sadness in their hearts, and for a while, the bows and arrows in the hands of many battalion soldiers also hung down.
Seeing that his morale was in danger of being taken away, Xu Hongji on the side saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly poked his head out of the battlements and shouted loudly: "Yang Feng, you have to talk nonsense, how could the Yamen of the Military Department do such a thing, you don't want to spew blood!" ”
The person standing at the gate of the city was Yang Feng, who was less than two hundred meters away from the gate at this time, and he was still holding an iron horn in his hand. Fearing that the people on the city wall would do the tricks, Song Ye led more than a dozen family members to hold heavy shields to wrap Yang Feng's surroundings firmly, revealing only his head.
After hearing Xu Hongji's words, although Yang Feng didn't know him, he could guess that the identity of the other party was definitely not ordinary. He sneered and raised the official document in his hand and shook it high, "The official document of the Ministry of War is here, and there is also the seal of the Yamen of the Ministry of War and the signature of Lord Shangshu, how can it be fake, if Lord Liao does not admit it, then the official will take the soldiers of the Thousand Households into Beijing together, please distinguish between the emperor and the adults of the imperial court, and see if this is an official document issued by the Yamen of the Nanjing Military Department, and the official believes that the emperor and the princes of the court will definitely return the official to justice." ”
As soon as Yang Feng said this, Xu Hongji and Liao Yongquan's hearts sank, and what Yang Feng said was exactly what they were most worried about, if the matter really reached the capital, then the matter would be big, no matter what, the capital would send someone down to investigate, and they would definitely not be able to escape at that time.
A head poked out from behind Xu Hongji, it wasn't Liao Yongquan, I saw him gritting his teeth and shouting: "Yang Feng, don't go too far." This official is the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, do you know what you are doing now? You are in rebellion, and if you don't hurry back, the officer will immediately send a large army to exterminate you. ”
"Not good!"
As soon as Liao Yongquan's words came out, the faces of Xu Hongji and Cao Dazhong on the side immediately changed. The current atmosphere is so tense, and Liao Yongquan, a pig teammate, is pouring oil into the fire.
Sure enough, as soon as Liao Yongquan's words came out, Yang Feng's face immediately sank, he didn't continue to speak, but turned his head and shouted loudly behind him: "Brothers, did you hear that? Lord Liao said that if we don't retreat, he will announce that we are rebels and will send a large army to destroy us, what do you say? ”
As soon as Yang Feng's words came out, the sergeants standing behind him were silent. After a long time, a voice suddenly sounded: "Brothers, the court doesn't give us the silver and doesn't make up the money owed over the years, and even the food and salary are not given to us, he wants us to go to Zhenjiang Mansion to die, since the court doesn't let us live, let's just go against the fuck!" ”
"Fuck it!"
"It's ...... the other way around"
At the beginning, the sound of shouting was not loud, just a few people were shouting, and then the number of people shouting slowly increased to dozens and then hundreds, and in the end, almost everyone raised their weapons in their hands and shouted, the shouting can be said to be deafening, and Liao Yongxing's face on the city wall turned pale, if it was really because of his own reasons, the soldiers who were originally going to go out to encircle and suppress the Japanese were forced to rebel, and the court's punishment for himself was not as simple as losing his official position and resigning, but it was to be beheaded after the autumn.
At this time, even Xu Hongji couldn't care about giving face to his ally, he turned his head to Liao Yongxing with a blushing face and gritted his teeth and shouted: "Lord Liao, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person, if you really force the people below to rebel, you will be the culprit when the court investigates it!" ”
Although there were many more soldiers on the city wall than there were people under the city, in the face of the wave of anger under the city wall, the soldiers on the city wall were all silent.
After scolding Liao Yongxing, Xu Hongji, who was in a hurry, quickly poked his head out of the battlement and shouted: "Yang Feng, what Lord Liao said is just angry words, don't take it to heart, now you retreat immediately, and my father promises not to hold you responsible!" ”
Looking at Xu Hongji, who poked his head out of the city wall and said spittle, Yang Feng secretly sneered in his heart, and he said loudly: "If you want me to retreat, it's naturally okay, but since the Ministry of War has sent us to exterminate the Japanese invaders, will our salary and silver be allocated to me immediately?" ”
Hearing this, Xu Hongji couldn't help but shake his teeth loudly, this Yang Feng was so hateful, if possible, he would like to chop him into flesh. However, the top priority at the moment is to send Yang Feng, the plague god, away, you must know that there is Cao Dazhong, the emperor's cronies, watching next to him. Liao Yongxing, this idiot, is probably finished, and the most important thing now is to get himself out, otherwise he will definitely not have his own good fruit to eat after Cao Dazhong hands over the secret music.
"Okay, my father-in-law is in charge, and I will immediately transfer the silver and the food and wages owed over the years to you."
"Really?"
"Seriously!"
"Do you want to send it right now?"
"Yes, send it now!"
As he said this, Xu Hongji felt a sound of grinding his teeth coming from his mouth......
More than an hour later, the city gate of Nanjing was opened, and a cart full of grain and silver was pushed out of the city gate, after seeing this cart, the soldiers who were waiting outside the city all cheered, their adventure was finally victorious, and those officials and old men bowed their heads, so that they did not have to worry about the life of their families even if they died in battle.
