Hearing Wu Shigong's murderous shout, Qiao Song, who was sitting on the chair, somehow, immediately weakened his legs and knelt in front of Wu Shigong. In the final analysis, although this Qiao Song is a thousand households, he is only a thousand households in the interior of Henan, and this ancestor has never encountered a war in his life, so when Wu Shigong's threatening words reached his ears, Qiao Song was immediately frightened.

However, although Qiao Song almost peed his pants in fright at first, he was also a member of the Ming Dynasty officialdom after all, and he knelt on the ground but reacted suddenly. This Wu Shou doesn't seem to have the power to dispose of himself!

In the Ming Dynasty, or in any feudal dynasty, the power to appoint and dismiss any official could only be vested in the emperor alone, that is to say, even the first assistant could not remove a Jiupin sesame official, which was a very serious issue of imperial autocracy. Therefore, Wu Shigong did not have the power to remove Qiao Song from his official position in Qianhu at all.

Not to mention killing officials. In the play, it seems that it is very enjoyable to see Qin Cha holding the sword of Shang Fang to kill corrupt officials, but in reality, this is not the case at all.

In the Ming Dynasty, even killing a common man had to be executed by the emperor, and it was even more unthinkable that Qin Cha would kill officials casually. Only in extremely special circumstances, such as rebellion or desertion on the battlefield, will such a situation occur when a boss kills an official.

And now, Qiao Song only verbally proposed to Wu Shigong that he did not want to go on the expedition. Even if Wu Shigong arrested Qiao Song and reported it when the time came, Qiao Song would not deny it? Anyway, Wu Shigong has no written evidence here that Qiao Song is unwilling to go on the expedition.

At that time, Qiao Song took his thousands of military households at most, and after singing a few high-profile words, he followed Wu Shigong on the expedition. Qiao Song also figured it out, as long as he arrived in Liaodong, Qiao Song would stick to Wu Shigong's side like a slug, so his safety must be guaranteed. But no matter what, let's deal with Wu Shigong in front of me first.

So Qiao Song also felt that his legs had strength again, and he wanted to struggle to stand up and continue to quibble with Wu Shigong. But at this moment, the personal soldiers guarding Wu Shigong outside the hall, after hearing Wu Shigong's shouts, they pulled out their waist knives and rushed in under the leadership of Yang Rusong.

After Wu Shigong suffered an assassination, Wu Shigong's guard work was greatly strengthened. So today, hearing Wu Shigong's shouting, Yang Rusong broke into the hall with the guards without hesitation.

Yang Rusong's personal soldiers are all people who have fought on the battlefield, and their aura is also very powerful. So when they looked at Qiao Song angrily, and the sharp knife dangled in front of Qiao Song again, Qiao Song's legs were weak again, and even his backbone seemed to have been transferred, lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, and kept begging Wu Shigong for mercy with a crying voice: "Wu Shoubei!" Kure-sama! Humble ...... The villain is also loyal and patriotic! The villain is willing to go out and beg the adults to spare their lives! ”

Wu Shigong waved his hand, stopping Yang Rusong from moving, and then asked leisurely, "Oh?" So how many men and horses is Qiao Qianhu going to take with this official to go on the expedition? ”

Hearing that there seemed to be room for negotiation in Wu Shigong's tone, Qiao Song also felt some strength in his body, he raised his head and said to Wu Shigong: "The villain can make up three hundred people......

Before Qiao Song finished speaking, Wu Shigong slapped the table again and scolded loudly: "You are so loyal and patriotic? That's how you got perfunctory with the official? ”

Qiao Song was so frightened that his face was full of tears and snot, and he hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Then five hundred." No more! This is already all the military households owned by the villain's thousands of households, I hope the adults will see it! ”

"Then tell me, how many military households do you have in this thousand households? How many tuntians? ”

was scolded by Wu Shigong again, Qiao Song was so frightened that he lay on the ground and couldn't speak.

In fact, Wu Shigong's purpose in intimidating Qiao Song like this was not to let Qiao Song's military households go out on the expedition at all, nor was it to extort Qiao Song of how much silver.

Wu Shigong himself is also a person who has done thousands of households, knows the decline of the Ming Dynasty's guards, and knows that it is impossible to get much benefit from the thousands of households. The reason why Wu Shigong wanted to do this was to completely control Qiao Song's Thousand Households.

Among the two prefectures and two counties that Wu Shigong now controls, the central and northern areas of Runing Province are completely controlled by Wu Shigong's own Runing battalion, so there is no need to worry at all.

And because Wu Shigong mastered the core armed forces of Guide Guard, coupled with the good relationship and kinship between Wu Shigong and the military attachés at all levels of Guide and Virtue (that is, the relationship between Wu Shigong's apprentice Tao Xin and the military attache of Guide and Virtue Guard, as well as the relationship between many of Wu Shigong's military attachés were born in the Guidewei military household). In addition, among the gentry of Guide Mansion, the most influential Hou Fu and Wu Shigong became an ally (of course, the Hou Mansion thought that he was Wu Shigong's backer). Therefore, Wu Shigong's control in Guide Dewei is also very close.

As for the two counties of Nanyang Prefecture, with the kinship of Wu Shigong and Li Lu, as well as Wu Shigong's soldiers stationed there, the control is also very strong.

To say that Wu Shigong's control is relatively weak, that is, the southern area of Runing Mansion where Qiao Song's thousand households are stationed. In the past, in order to prevent any friction caused by Qiao Song, a thousand households, and not to attract the attention of his superiors and civil officials, Wu Shigong did not send any soldiers in the south of Runing Mansion except for a few Zhuangzi.

But now that he had such an opportunity, Wu Shigong decided to put Qiao Song's Thousand Households under his complete control. Before you go north, complete this zuihou puzzle in your own control area.

In addition, for Wu Shigong, it is also very important to have the quota of more than 1,000 soldiers in Qiao Song's Thousand Households. After all, the number of Wu Shigong's soldiers has exceeded his rated number of soldiers by too much, and if it can be diluted in this way, it can also play a role in covering up.

Wu Shigong estimated that adding a few hundred of his own soldiers to Qiao Song's Thousand Households, and recruiting some military households in Qiao Song's Thousand Households, with his current financial resources, he could barely support it.

However, now Wu Shigong no longer has the ability to expand his territory and increase his soldiers. Unless there are great changes in the external environment, Wu Shigong can only develop to this extent at this stage.

So Wu Shigong slapped the table again and scolded Qiao Song: "How many soldiers can Qianhu can produce, don't you need to say more to Qiao Qianhu from this official, right?" How can you produce 500 people? Until now, you still want to deceive the official? ”

"Nope! No! Qiao Song hurriedly denied it, "Lord Wu Mingjian! Then Qiao Song hurriedly introduced the situation of his thousand households.

In fact, Wu Shigong basically knows about those situations, what kind of folk gentry forcibly occupy the land of the guard! The military family has fled! The harvest is in a bad drought! ……

Of course, Wu Shigong only cared about Qiao Song's introduction of his Qianhu Institute. From Qiao Song's introduction, Wu Shigong learned that among Qiao Song's thousands of households, there are only more than 500 military households and more than 20,000 acres of land.

After understanding all the situation, Wu Shigong once again practiced the iron sand palm on the table, and he taught Qiao Song a lesson: "The country is in danger, that is, you are worthy of the emperor's grace and neglect your duties." ”

"Someone's coming!" Wu Shigong instructed Yang Rusong, "Arrange Qiao Qianhu to go down and watch it tightly." Then send someone to Qiao Qianhu's Qianhu to put this Qianhu in order. ”
