In the military camp of Shandong Town. A big man with a meaty face, slender eyes, and a bald head looked surprised.

This big man is Liu Kecheng, the subordinate general under Liu Zeqing. I only heard Liu Kecheng surprised but didn't dare to confirm the authentic words: "Junmen, can we really get the salary of 10,000 World War II soldiers?" ”

Another strong man who was slightly smaller, short and strong, with a round face and mung bean eyes was also very excited when he listened. This person is another general under Liu Zeqing, Ruan Yingzhao.

"10,000 soldiers in World War II, a month's military salary of one or two and a half cents. There are also 8,000 auxiliaries, and the military salary is eight cents a month. This month is twenty-four thousand four hundred taels. We're pulling it out, and we're going to have another one to pull out the silver. If you go into battle, you need to go into battle again and ask for a life money. Before leaving, the wine and meat must be eaten, counted before and after, and in two months, this Shandong town can ask for at least 60,000 taels of silver from that Qin Xia? ”

"Mother...... I'm so beautiful! When Liu Kecheng heard this number, his eyes suddenly widened and he looked surprised.

With this appearance, Liu Zeqing looked disgusted: "What are you talking about, I haven't seen anything on the market!" ”

Liu Kecheng and Ruan Yingzhao were two-skinned faces, and they didn't care about Liu Zeqing's reprimand at all. Ruan Yingzhao smiled even more flatteringly: "You haven't told us yet, Junmen, this surnamed Qin really should come down?" Counting the true colors, this is out of Linqing, he has to prepare at least 100,000 taels of silver! ”

When Liu Kecheng heard the 100,000 taels, he couldn't stop nodding, he was even more dizzy, his mouth was open, and his saliva flowed, "This has to empty the banknotes!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Zeqing suddenly recalled the scene of Zhu Cihong's swollen face and fat man that day.

"Stop babbling. Let me tell you, that Qin Xia, I promised, I agreed! Liu Zeqing laughed heartily!

"20,000 armors, my lord agreed?"

"Promised!"

"Nine thousand firearms, and the adults have agreed?"

"Yes!"

"There were 50,000 knives and guns, sixteen furlong machines, and four general cannons. What about 20,000 people? My lord...... My lord! ”

"Yes, yes, yes. I said yes! Zhu Cihong helplessly looked at Chang Zhilang, whose footsteps were a little shaky in front of him, and was so frightened that he hurriedly went over to help him up.

Chang Zhilang wanted to cry without tears: "My lord...... My lord, how can you say yes? This is clearly the ...... It's blackmail, it's blackmail! ”

"If you don't agree, what can you do? If Liu Zeqing does not send troops, how can this official enter the Central Plains, how can he quell the chaos, and how can he make meritorious contributions? How to restore peace in Henan? Zhu Cihong looked very serious, but finally laughed as he spoke.

Chang Zhilang was speechless for a while. After Chang Zhilang served as the sub-supervisor of the Guozi Supervision and Taxation Division, he actually began to be Zhu Cihong's staff and master.

In fact, several of the inmates who came were all members of Zhu Cihong's lineage, and most of the time they acted as think tanks. And Chang Zhilang is the head of this think tank, and he is slowly and carefully establishing Zhu Cihong's administrative team.

Naturally, as a think tank, Chang Zhilang had to risk the worries and persuasion of his boss's disgust, so Chang Zhilang said bitterly: "My lord." Where are the 12,000 soldiers in this Shandong town? The four battalion heads are all things that occupy empty quotas and eat the blood of soldiers. There are also 8,000 auxiliaries, it is better to say 8,000 beggars who can be picked up at any time. In the end, the entire Shandong town will be thankful that there are 5,000 people who can go into battle. As for the armor, equipment, Furlong machine, and general cannon, they are all very problematic. The armor of Shandong Town has always been complete, and no one will use the Furlong machine and the general's cannon. He asked for all this just to ask for money and food first, and then set up another name to buy guns! These...... It's all ......."

"It's all about deceiving me, isn't it?" Seeing this, Zhu Cihong laughed and said, "Don't worry, this official has his own plan." When the time comes, it will not be in vain to waste all this money, food, and equipment. ”

"Yes, sir." Seeing Zhu Cihong's support, Chang Zhilang sighed lightly, and finally decided to end the exhortation.

This curtain master has given his opponent one "surprise" after another.

"Let's go, go see our army. Only these comrades-in-arms who are of one heart and one mind with us are the real strength that we can rely on. Liu Zeqing...... All I want is a layer of skin. Zhu Cihong smiled, galloped on his horse, and led Chang Zhilang and a few people into the barracks.

The army that Zhu Cihong said is naturally the prince's protector. The prince's protector is located in the north of Linqing City, which is the small castle that was newly built before.

For this reason, Liu Zeqing privately sent four or five groups of people, but they failed to find more spearmen from Zhu Cihong. On the contrary, he found that Zhu Cihong was recruiting troops in the battalion branch with great momentum.

Speaking of which, although Zhu Cihong has the title of the prince's protector, this title is obviously not suitable for display. Therefore, it is always called the patrol army of the tax division to the outside world. Of course, the name of the patrol force is too imposing. So Zhu Cihong wrote a large pen and gave a name to the patrol and arrest camp of the Taxation Branch of the Linqing Household Department. Then it is directly referred to as Linqing Camp.

There are only four hundred people in Linqing, and Fu Rugui of a thousand households was sent out by Zhu Cihong, and now he is personally led by Zhu Cihong.

Below the thousand households, there are three hundred households, one of which leads the infantry, one hundred households leads the cavalry, and the last hundred households operate three furlong machines and a red-coated cannon.

Not long after, Zhu Cihong arrived in front of the barracks.

"Freeze to death and don't demolish the house!"

"Starve to death and not plunder!"

Old Seventeen raised the number plate, checked the password, and entered the barracks.

As soon as he entered the barracks, Zhu Cihong saw Liu Sheng, a hundred infantry households, shouting loudly, leading more than 200 people under his command, holding spears of two zhang lengths, and relying on them in formation, against Liu Zhen, a cavalry hundred households led by another hundred knights.

Zhu Cihong raised his hand and motioned to Lao Seventeen and Chang Zhilang to silence.

And at this moment, all the superfluous eyes of the barracks fell on this acting.

Liu Sheng led more than 200 people, armed with spears, and lined up to meet the enemy. And Liu Zhen led one hundred and ten cavalry into three squads, detouring again and again, looking for Liu Sheng's flaws.

Sure enough, when Liu Zhen personally led the cavalry to charge around Liu Sheng's flank, Liu Sheng's infantry suddenly reacted slowly, and chaos suddenly arose.

Seeing this, Liu Zhen roared violently: "Sons, kill with me!" ”

The roar was like thunder, which suddenly spread the chaos even more.

"I'm afraid of an egg! If you lose, do you have to wash the feet of this group of turtle grandchildren? Fight, guns, array! ”

"Lin Liu, prepare with your Lu Mi Gun!"

"Wen Dong, Chen Fangfei, follow me with a spearman, hold a gun, and meet the enemy!"

The chaos only lasted for seventeen breaths, and then, in front of Liu Zhen, there was a forest of guns in front of him......

"Hey, don't forget, behind you!" Liu Zhen took the riding spear and swept the spear array that had been set up into a forest, and the sound of bumping and clattering sounded, and then he clamped the horse's belly, turned the horse's head, and more than a dozen people quickly retreated.
