This situation also extends to the military, because many officers have misappropriated their military salaries and borrowed money, grain and money to incubate silver. If they succeed, it is naturally good. Now everyone knows that incubating silver has failed. They not only did not make money, but also lost their principal, which makes many officers bankrupt and officers bankrupt, And misappropriated military pay, which means there is no military response.
You should know that soldiers in this era all eat food and become soldiers. Being a soldier is for this share of money and food. Even the most elite Qi family army is no exception, not to mention other people. What kind of soldiers should they be if they have no food? Mutiny broke out in many places. Although Liu Jiajun was here to help, he was too busy.
Liu Jiajun is responsible for guarding the area of Fengyang mansion. Their army is very strong. Any army that fights with them will be ruthlessly defeated by them. However, one thing is that they are only responsible for dealing with the rebels, and they don't care about those who make noise and food.
Because there were thousands of officers and soldiers in a certain place in Yangzhou. Because they were seriously short of food and had no food for a few days, they were so angry that the soldiers started fighting for pay and besieged the county. Without hesitation, the local officials asked the Liu family army to send out troops to help them calm the civil uprising, but Liu family army resolutely refused.
Because everyone is a soldier, they can't do such things as fighting in the same room and falling into a well. You know, Liu Jiajun's soldiers are also soldiers and come from the common people. If the other party wants to be rebellious and rebel, they will ruthlessly suppress it, but if the other party only wants one bite, they can't suppress the other party and want one bite.
There was a serious economic crisis in the south of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty, which also extended to other aspects, and also extended to Liu Jiajun. They were also short of food and sound.
Since the founding of the army, Liu Jiajun has never owed grain. It is said that their general Liu Bu misappropriated a large amount of silver this time and went to incubate the silver. As a result, there was a deficit, which also caused serious problems in the payment of their military salaries.
Fortunately, the Liu family has always been very kind to others. They also took out a lot of money and food to relieve the disaster and went to rescue countless people. This kindness makes many people think that such an organization is worth following. Although it is difficult for a while, it is also worth following. Liu Bu has no secret about the money he owes, and he also admits the money he owes, Equivalent to a few months of military noise.
Now he has no army sound hair. Now he has only grain hair and no sound hair. If someone thinks he is not worth following and is unwilling to follow him, he can leave immediately and leave the country as a gift.
For those who are willing to stay in the Liu family army system and follow him, Liu Bu can't pay silver, but the food and welfare standards remain the same. As for Junxiang, he is issuing an IOU. He promises to repay all the IOU signed by Liu Bu within one year, with interest.
If the second person dared to do this, he would have been sprayed to death. When he was a soldier, he recognized white silver and white steamed bread. You took a piece of paper to deceive people. Who TMD dumped you? However, the Liu family is the Liu family in Linqing after all. They are the richest in the world. Their reputation is still quite loud. They are several rich families in the world. The young master has lost so much money by incubating silver, but there is also the old master. Their old master is known as a man with exquisite faces, but he is a very powerful man. With him, it is impossible for Liu Bu to keep his money, Eventually collapsed.
In addition, Liu Bu's backstage is extremely tough. His father is governor Denglai, his father-in-law is the commander-in-chief of Dengzhou, and he is also the commander-in-chief of Fengyang. Few people can compare with him in such a prominent family background, which is also his reliable guarantee.
The most important thing is that the Liu family took out a lot of money and grain for disaster relief in the dongsanfu area last year, which made many people recognize them.
Many people, ordinary people and soldiers believe that Liu Jiajun's difficulties are temporary. As long as he is given time to slow down, he will recover immediately.
Why did Liu Bu do this? Not to avoid suspicion? In order to make others believe that he is also the victim of this matter, only by making others believe that he is also the victim, others will not doubt him and he can be alone.
Although he thinks that he has soldiers and power in his hands, he doesn't care about the ideas of these mud legs and the people. If he has such ideas, he is very wrong. You know what a powerful figure Hong Chengchou, governor of the five provinces, is? He has more than 100000 troops under his command. In the past, his reputation was very good, both in the imperial court and among the people.
However, after this silver incubation event, he was even the number one villain in the world. He was scolded by the people, the government and the public one after another, and everyone denounced him. It is estimated that he will not be a governor of five provinces for long.
Hong Chengchou knew that he would not be a governor of five provinces for long. Instead, he was more active in this work. He thought that if I could eliminate the roving bandits and calm the civil strife for his majesty, I could at least retreat all over the body. If he could not calm the roving bandits and do something happy for the emperor during his term of office, I guess he's dead.
At this time, Hong Chengchou no longer considered the issue of promotion and wealth. What he considered was how to get himself out and how to keep his peace for the rest of his life.
He knew that the whole world hated him very much now, and all people were very angry with him. Once he left the army and lost the protection of the army, it was estimated that many people would cut him with knives in person, but in this case, he could only rely on the army and the protection of the emperor.
In a sense, he became a solitary Minister of emperor Chongzhen. If emperor Chongzhen protects him, he will have a life. If emperor Chongzhen no longer protects him, he is estimated to be dead. It is estimated that emperor Chongzhen also took a fancy to this and understood this, so he will continue to be the governor of five provinces, command the army and eliminate the exiled bandits.
Liu bu also understood this point, that is, the current Ming court, which is Wang Xiaoer's new year, which is getting worse year by year. Since he has been so corrupt, he can only rely on their generals. If it was a few years ago, it would be unimaginable. It is estimated that the emperor can seize their military power and make them have nothing.
But now, even if emperor Chongzhen issued a decree and the people below did not carry it out, it is estimated that he could not do anything. He could not use the army to order these people to carry it out, could he?
You should know that these people in the army have gradually become more and more family members. They are all given food by the officers, so they only know the officers, and others don't. almost all soldiers only know the generals and don't know the emperors.
Liu Bu dared to do such activities because he had such confidence. He was also forced to do such activities because he was anxious. He saw that the Ming court was already in the sunset and in the wind and rain. If he could not grasp this opportunity in time, he would not have such an opportunity in the future.
If the Liu family can't take advantage of the situation, they won't have a chance in the future. Can they leave the world to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, let everyone wear a vest, have a whip, and claim that they can't be slaves?
That's why Liu Bu directed this good play of money and pay arrears. On the one hand, he wanted to explain to Zhu Dadian. You know, Zhu Dadian has begun to suspect him. You know, everyone is an official and a good player in intrigues. Everyone knows these things very well. If you want to make the other party listen to them through superficial things, This is impossible. There are many things in officialdom that have no evidence, but they only recognize one thing, that is, those who are high in profit doubt. As long as they benefit, everyone has reason to doubt him.
Liu Bu knew that many people were doubting him, so he simply directed this good play. When he explained to Zhu Dadian and others, he could also clarify his internal loyalty. If such a thing happened in his army, some people were willing to help him in the same boat, which showed that this person was one with him and deserved respect, If he has no money at once, the other party will leave him. Even if he has the ability, he will not reuse or trust him.
This can be said to be Liu Bu's way of testing the loyalty of soldiers. He can't clean his men with violent and bloody means, but he can identify the loyalty of his men through the way that soldiers don't cut blood, so that he can understand who is loyal and who is not loyal. If he is willing to share weal and woe with him, it must be worth reusing, If he leaves him in time of trouble, such people will gather and disperse, green mountains and green waters, bid farewell to the Jianghu and never see him again.
Therefore, this Liu bu he would think hard and let his army also make a good play that owes money to him. He secretly sent out a large number of secret agents to observe secretly. Since he had made such a mistake, many people doubt his suspicion. Many people were secretly investigating their Liu family. They investigated all kinds of financial situations of the Liu family, but when they saw that the Liu family army was making noise and worrying about it, they no longer doubted him.
Liu Bu is also distressed. Now he has so much money, but he can't use it. He has to collect it in a low-key way. This is somewhat different from his expectation. His expectation is that Daming will perish in seven or eight years. If he doesn't make good use of these seven or eight years to train a strong army and stand out in the time of the avalanche, he will have no chance in the future, Therefore, the time is very urgent. He can't afford to delay. What should I do?
