(Today's chapter is presented, please collect and subscribe!!) )
After listening to Han Liushan's words, Li Zixiao waved his hand and said, "Lord Han is serious, the responsibility for this incident is not all on you.
When the official said this, he didn't want to hold anyone responsible, it was a matter for the imperial court.
Now this official is just asking you, why did the soldiers of the Huai'an Guard Station rot to such an extent, and how did those officers and soldiers of the Guard Station dare to burn and loot in Huai'an City like this? ”
In fact, before coming, Li Zixiao didn't expect that this time the mutiny of the Huai'an Guard Station would reach such a point, and those rebels were cruel, and they were not lost to those robbers and bandits at all.
These people were still Ming officers and soldiers one second, but the next second they became, rebels who were more cruel than bandits, killing innocents indiscriminately.
Hearing Li Zixiao's question, Han Liushan smiled bitterly: "General Li, you are an expert in leading troops, so you naturally know a truth, you need silver to govern places, and you need silver to lead troops."
In these years, there is no silver, even if you are the reincarnation of Sun Wu, you will not be able to lead soldiers, and the soldiers of Huai'an are not composed of tun troops or soldiers, but by local ruffians.
Their military discipline is simply unbearable, and they are doing many things on weekdays to rob people and women, and bully men and women.
This is not caused overnight, it would be too far to trace the root cause. ”
As soon as Li Zixiao heard Han Liushan's words, he knew that the erosion of Huai'an Health Center was probably the mess left by his predecessor or even his predecessor.
In this regard, Han Liushan obviously didn't want to say more, and it was useless to say more, things were already like this.
The previous ones patted their butts and left, and the former commander of Huai'an, it is estimated that he is either retired or in a high position at this time, and Han Liushan is not willing to rashly say bad things about his predecessor behind his back.
Li Zixiao's face beast showed a thoughtful expression, did not speak, and continued to listen to Han Liushan.
"Nowadays, almost all the treasury of the imperial court household can run rats, where is the silver allocated to us, so these salaries and silver fall on the local government.
But so far, the Huai'an Health Center has been three months and has no money, which is why this disaster has been caused. ”
After Han Liushan finished speaking, Yao Xinyu on the other side looked at him through gritted teeth.
Because Han Liushan didn't tell Li Zixiao that it was the salary of the Huai'an Mansion Yake who withheld the salary of the guard post that caused this mutiny.
Facing Yao Xinyu's resentful gaze, Han Liushan completely ignored it at this time, before Li Zixiao came, he still needed to confront Yao Xinyu, who let Yao Xinyu be in charge of the allocation of their military salaries!
However, Li Zixiao is here, these things have their own Li Zixiao to have a headache, and he doesn't have to worry about it anymore, and he doesn't have to look at Yao Xinyu's face anymore.
Li Zixiao listened to Han Liushan's vague words, in fact, he naturally knew.
Li Zixiao's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and his mind turned quickly.
"Then what does Lord Han think about the Huai'an Health Center in the future?" Li Zixiao asked with a calm face.
"Now that the adults are here, it will not be the turn of these things to worry about in the future, and everything in the lowly duties will be subject to the arrangements of the adults."
After Li Zixiao heard Han Liushan's words, his calm face immediately showed a smile, what he was waiting for was Han Liushan's words, that is to say, Han Liushan had already decided to take refuge in him at this time.
Li Zixiao's face became a little kinder, and he said slowly: "Okay, you have a hard time, and this official can't be inconsiderate."
In this way, this piece of music to the Ministry of War will be submitted by the official for you, and as for the recruitment of new soldiers in Huai'an, the official will also be handed over to you to complete.
Moreover, in the future, the military salary of the recruits of the Huai'an Health Station will also be allocated by the commander of Xuzhou to the Yamen, what do you think? ”
"Is this true?"
Han Liushan was overjoyed when he heard this, his originally blue face turned red in an instant, and his eyes stared at Li Zixiao with dead eyes, for fear that he would say something remorseful again.
"Of course, this official will not deceive you." Li Zixiao said with a smile.
"Since the official agreed, he will naturally honor it, but the official is not without conditions."
"Your Excellency, please speak!"
After the ecstasy, Han Liushan also calmed down, there is no free lunch in the sky, Li Zixiao must have his conditions for doing this, but Han Liushan at this time has no choice.
Seeing that Han Liushan could react from the huge temptation so quickly, Li Zixiao nodded secretly in his heart, this conductor still has some determination.
Although Li Zixiao was outside the city, after executing Zhu Dagui's rebellious soldiers, he warned Yao Xinyu, the prefect of Huai'an, not to be in arrears.
But he also knew in his heart that the possibility of letting this Huai'an prefect honestly and on time allocate money to Han Liushan was almost equal to zero.
It's hard for a dog to get rid of ****, these corrupt officials, if they want them to give money, unless they put a knife on his neck, if Li Zixiao didn't need to temporarily maintain the stability of Huai'an, he would have abolished Yao Xinyu a long time ago.
Yao Xinyu is not Qiu Guangming from Xuzhou, this kind of incompetent person, even if he takes refuge in Li Zixiao, he is not willing to ask for it.
It's a pity that Li Zixiao still has to sit obediently for a while, and for a fourth-grade member of the imperial court, he can't be removed or killed casually, that would have too much impact.
Now that Huai'an's rebellious soldiers have been suppressed and almost killed, it is also time for Li Zixiao to meddle in Huai'an's defense.
Anyway, Li Zixiao inserted his hand into Huai'an, which was also justified.
And isn't the most effective way to control an army be to control its logistics? To put it bluntly, it is to control their salaries.
Li Zixiao said slowly: "Han Tongzhi, this official thinks so, since the original soldiers of the Huai'an Guard Station have been eroded into this, and most of this mutiny has been cleaned up.
It's better to let us re-recruit, the children of civilians with innocent family backgrounds, as for the military salary, you don't have to worry, the command of Xuzhou will make the yamen bear it.
But this official also has a condition, that is, this official should mobilize some experienced grassroots officers and deputy hundred and thousands of households from Xuzhou to cooperate with you to manage this new army of Huai'an Health Station.
How about you think about it? ”
Because, in name, Li Zixiao is unable to appoint officials of the Huai'an Health Institute.
Han Liushan is still responsible for this aspect, which is also the main reason why Li Zixiao needs to get it, and Han Liushan takes refuge, Huai'an is not Xuzhou after all.
But Li Zixiao took money to let Han Liushan recruit new soldiers and enrich the Huai'an Guard, but he did not plan to give up this new army, and he must control the military power.
And the method he chose was to mix sand into the new army, and at the same time send some deputy hundred households and deputy thousand households to serve in the new army, and gradually empty the original hundred households and thousands of households when the time comes, and finally control these guards.
This trick, money opening, infiltration, and overhead tricks, Li Zixiao has used it in Xuzhou before, although the method is not new, but the effect is very good.
At this time, when Han Liushan heard this, his heart couldn't help but feel cold, this Dingyuan general was planning to mix sand into the Huai'an guards, and the goal was to control several guards in Huai'an after all.
Li Zixiao was not in a hurry, but slowly sandwiched a chopstick sweet and sour pork ribs, chewed them slowly, and took a sip of wine by the way, looking light-hearted.
Han Liushan thought about it for a while, and then readily agreed to Li Zixiao's conditions, after he offended Yao Xinyu to death, he could only completely attach himself to Li Zixiao's wings.
As for the military power of several guards in Huai'an, he didn't expect to control it, and Li Zixiao would never allow this situation to happen.
The first time Han Liushan saw Li Zixiao, he knew that this was a strong young general.
In the future, all the military power in Huai'an can only be controlled by Li Zixiao, and Han Liushan is already very satisfied with Li Zixiao's recruitment of new soldiers, such an important task is handed over to him.
This shows that Li Zixiao accepted his surrender and entrusted him with an important task, and did not vacate him, which already made Han Liushan very satisfied.
Han Liushan finally stood up and said to Li Zixiao: "Since the adults have decided like this, how dare you not agree?" The lowly will definitely do this well. ”
"Haha, okay," Li Zixiao laughed and said to Han Liushan: "That's right, then in the future, the defense of Huai'an, Lord Han needs to worry a lot!" ”
Yao Xinyu on the side listened to the series of conversations between Li Zixiao and Han Liushan, but he was a little dumbfounded.
When he saw that Li Zixiao actually wanted to take the initiative to bear the salary of the officers and soldiers of the Huai'an Guard, he couldn't believe his ears.
Is this Dingyuan general a fool with a lot of money, and he is willing to be the boss of this wrong?
Yao Xinyu didn't have Han Liushan's vision, and he didn't think so far.
Now he has only one thought, that is, he can finally justify himself in the future and save a sum of money, but he is secretly happy in his heart, and he has not stopped it.
At the same time, Li Zixiao put down the rebellion against those rebels during the day, and stole hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and valuables from them, all of which were snatched from those big families by these rebels.
For this reason, Li Zixiao didn't dare to be greedy, this silver was so hot to take it, he ordered this silver to be distributed to the families of the people who were harmed by the chaos.
This makes Li Zixiao's name of 'General Renyi' known to everyone in Huai'an City, and of course, Zhang Fugui's Intelligence Bureau is also indispensable in secret.
Subsequently, at noon the next day, the White Dragon Army led by Liu Chong also rushed to Huai'an and temporarily took over Huai'an's city defense, and Yao Xinyu couldn't say anything.
Li Zixiao sent Liu Chong's trapping camp over, but he didn't plan to let Liu Chong leave again, as long as he controlled the city of Huai'an, Huai'an Mansion would be equivalent to Li Zixiao's hands.
"General!"
At Li Zixiao's temporary residence, Zhang Fugui stood behind Li Zixiao in a regular manner at this time, and said tremblingly.
"Ergou, Huai'an, you did a good job in this mission." Li Zixiao's voice came faintly.
"The subordinates don't dare to be greedy, they are all led by the generals." Zhang Fugui's kung fu did not fall at all.
"It's your credit that is yours, no one will grab it, and I'm not going to grab the credit with myself first, but ......"
As he spoke, Li Zixiao turned around suddenly, stared at Zhang Fugui with cold eyes, changed his tone, and continued coldly: "The mutiny is such a big thing, you actually took a long time to report to me, and your courage is getting bigger and bigger."
Also, Zhu Dagui's rebellious soldiers actually slaughtered the people in Huai'an City, didn't you think of these in advance? ”
Listening to Li Zixiao's cold scolding, Zhang Fugui's face turned pale, and with a 'flutter', he knelt down in front of Li Zixiao, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "It's all the subordinates who have not thought it through, please punish the general." ”
Zhao Fugui felt Li Zixiao's real anger, this was beating him, during this time he was in power, controlling a huge intelligence network, which made him a little fluttering.
It was only at this time that Li Zixiao's cold words made Zhang Fugui sober up, and he was terrified, the reason why he was able to do this was all because of Li Zixiao's support.
If he loses Li Zixiao's reuse, he will be nothing, so for Zhang Fugui, what he is most afraid of is losing Li Zixiao's trust.
Li Zixiao saw Zhang Fugui's frightened appearance, and he also knew that his beating was okay, and it was not appropriate to criticize Zhang Fugui too harshly, and stop at the point.
After all, Zhang Fugui still has merit this time, so Li Zixiao softened his face and said, "Okay, get up."
Pay attention in the future, things like this must be reported to me in time, and you can't act without authorization, and in addition, your intelligence bureau has also worked hard for this operation.
When you go back, you take my approval slip and withdraw five hundred taels of silver from Old Master Wei and distribute it to his subordinates.
I will reward you for your meritorious work, but if you make a mistake, you will also be punished, and you will go back and copy the poem three times. ”
"Ahh Be. ”
Zhang Fugui originally thought that he was going to be whipped this time, but he didn't expect that in the end, Li Zixiao would let him copy the article, and this punishment was simply symbolic.
This also made Zhang Fugui feel relieved, which shows that Li Zixiao did not give up on him.
"General, just now I am familiar with the news that Li Yan came from Yangzhou, Yangzhou Mansion is in urgent need of a batch of refined salt, and with the rise of refined salt in Yangzhou, this is a big piece of fat.
Recently, those Japanese bandits, who have been stopped for more than half a year, seem to have reappeared near the riverside. Zhang Fugui reported.
"Well, I know, you send someone to pay attention to the traces of those widows, it is best to find their hiding place, and when the time comes, don't startle the snakes, and come back to report."
"Yes, my subordinates understand." Li Zixiao waved his hand at Zhang Fugui and said.
After Zhang Fugui left, Li Zixiao stood in front of the window, pondered quietly, and whispered to himself: "Presumably, after the news of the Huai'an Mutiny being suppressed by me reaches Yangzhou, it is estimated that some people will not be able to sit still."
Hehe, no matter how much you don't want Lao Tzu to enter Yangzhou, but this Yangzhou Lao Tzu is going to be decided, maybe those little devils are worth using again. ”
Thinking of this, Li Zixiao had a sinister smile on his face, and after a while, Li Zixiao stopped thinking about these matters.
Instead, he picked up a letter from the desk next to him, with the words Juanjuan Xiu on it, and it looked like it was in the hands of a woman, the letter was just sent by Zhang Fugui, and it was written by Lin Wan'er in Yangzhou.
This time, Lin Wan'er once again hinted in the letter that it was time to go to Yangzhou to propose to his father.
"Let's just go to Yangzhou this time and settle the marriage with Wan'er."
Thinking of the elegant figure and beautiful appearance at the beginning, Li Zixiao also showed a smile on his face.
