Chapter 455: Another Trick
The city of Nanjing has now become a mess.
Eliminate redundant personnel, Zhu Jie believes that as long as there are enough benefits, I believe that those soldiers will never make trouble, on the contrary, they will be willing to leave the guard, get a sum of money, and then be exempted from taxes for life, such benefits are undoubtedly too rich.
However, Zhu Jie's imagination is a little too simple.
For ordinary soldiers, there is naturally no problem, but for these generals, it is different, these generals, naturally do not rely on a simple salary to survive, in the barracks, thousands of households are in charge of thousands of troops, hundreds of households are in charge of hundreds of troops, even if the reported strength is not full, but there will still be hundreds of people, even if it is from each soldier's salary, cut out a tael of silver, a year, it is also a lot of wealth, not to mention the military salary they received fraudulently, This has become a common practice, even if a hundred households fraudulently receive seven or eight people, there are dozens of taels of silver, as for thousands of households fraudulently receive the military salaries of dozens or even more people, it is even easier, how much benefit do you have to get in a year?
But what about once you leave the barracks?
Yes, Zhu Jie replenished a year's salary to everyone in one go, but it was only one year, even if it was a thousand households, a fourth-grade military attachΓ©, a year's salary was only a hundred taels, but what was lost was an income of hundreds of taels that could be easily obtained every year!
Who wants to? No one wants to!
But now his arms can't twist his thighs, Zhu Jie is too strong, as the Duke of Zhenguo, the governor of Nanzhili and the secretary of the ministry, he holds the sword of Shang Fang Tianzi, and now he has the tacit approval and even secret support of Shi Kefa, the secretary of the military department, whether it is a hundred households, a thousand households, or a commander and a commander, there is no strength to compete with Zhu Jie at all!
On the Qinhuai River, Spring Rain Building.
More than a dozen commanders and commanders gathered together, drinking boredly, and even the courtesans who were constantly smiling and flattering on the side didn't have the heart to pay attention.
"Brothers, what should I do, at the beginning, it was the sergeant in the army, now it is the general banner and a hundred households, and in a few days it will be the turn of a thousand households, and in a short time, it will be the turn of our commanders and commanders......
The commander of the left guard of the government army made Lin Tao say sadly.
"What to do? Cold! What can I do? That Qin Mufeng, can you afford to provoke it? That's a real demon king who kills people without blinking, haven't you heard that on the battlefield in Henan, there are more than a thousand rebels who died at his hands, and there are even dozens of generals! You just have to be honest, your two hard work is not enough for others to fight with one hand! β
Zhu Feng, the commander of the right guard of the government army, sneered.
"I'll rub, don't just talk about me, look at your dog-legged appearance in front of Qin Mufeng, Lao Tzu looks disgusting!"
Lin Tao said angrily.
Zhu Feng shouted: "I'm a dog? Aren't you the same? Let's not laugh at anyone! β
"Alright, alright, you two stop arguing!"
Jin Wu's avant-garde commander Gou Buru shouted, "We're here to discuss solutions, not to quarrel!" β
"Have you come up with a solution? Well? β
A person's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and several people were shocked, and looked towards the door, only to see three people walking in from the outside - Cheng Anhou Guo Zuoyong, Baoguo Gong Zhu Guobi, and Sincerity Bo Liu Kongzhao!
"Three adults, why are you, why are you here all of a sudden?"
Lin Tao was shocked, and quickly stood up and asked.
Zhu Guobi snorted coldly: "Look at the appearance of you people, what? Now that Zhu Jie has laid off employees, you can't sit still? At the beginning, I wanted you to join forces to fight against Zhu Jie's rectification from the beginning, why did you look ahead and look backwards? Well, now that even if you are honest, you may not be able to survive this catastrophe! β
Lin Tao and the others had a bitter face, Zhu Guobi said well, these lords and ministers are all big and deep-rooted, it's a big deal not to go against Zhu's masterpiece, anyway, this title is left by the ancestors, there are Danshu iron coupons at home, as long as the Ming Dynasty does not die, they will never worry about eating and drinking, but which of these people can compare? Some people have a hereditary martial arts position, but it doesn't mean that this disarmament can't be affected, but anyone who has passed the age line and can be mediocre may be directly removed from his position!
"Grandpa Guo, you should give us another idea, this time, this second pole is really going to die, without the position of commander, we are still a fart, not as good as a rich businessman in Nanjing......"
Lin Tao said astringently.
Zhu Guobi said coldly: "Now you know that you want to ask us?" Well, let's help you this time, it's up to you to make it happen......"
Lin Tao hurriedly bowed down and said: "Grandpa Guo, don't worry, now the 14th Guard of Nanjing, except for the dead and dismissed commanders and commanders, has become mortal enemies with Zhu Jie, either he dies, or we are finished, we all listen to you, only you and all the lords have the ability to bring down this second pole......
"Yes, yes, Grandpa Guo, we all listen to you!"
Zhu Guobi glanced at Liu Kongzhao and said, "Brother Kong Zhao, it's up to you this time, you come and tell them!" β
Liu Kongzhao nodded slightly, and said in a low voice: "Listen to the few of you, this time, it is the most critical shot, and if it fails, all the resignations and dismissals will be light, maybe the head of Xiang Shangshang will not be able to be saved; If you succeed, each of you can be promoted to the rank of knight, and all the lords of our Nanjing City promise you that if you bring down Zhu Jie, you will be the heroes, and all the officials will be promoted to the next level! β
Everyone nodded.
Liu Kongzhao said in a deep voice: "From now on, you will contact reliable people, thousands of households, hundreds of households, all of them are included, especially those who have been eliminated, all of them will be gathered and instigated to make trouble among the soldiers under your command, the bigger the trouble, the better!" It's better to be able to have a head-on conflict with Zhu Jie's people, and it's even better to be able to die some people! β
Everyone was shocked, making trouble? This Zhu Jie is afraid that we won't make trouble now, I'm afraid that I won't find an excuse to clean up us, if we make trouble, will we still be alive?
"Count, let's make trouble? This Zhu Jie is ruthless, I'm afraid that none of us will survive......"
Zhu Feng on the side muttered.
"Hmph, you can't be a general if you're cowardly, you're afraid of wolves and tigers, so you'll just wait for death!"
Liu Kongzhao said dissatisfied, "This time, you gathered thousands of people in one go, or even thousands, can Zhu Jie be able to kill you all, and the law will not blame the public!" As long as you make a fuss, we will leave the rest to us, we have already found Master Chen Yan and other adults in Jingshi, as long as we seize this opportunity, we will be able to bring Zhu Jie down in one fell swoop! β
