The generals who bully the common people have a kind of mentality, that is, I have worked hard to defeat Guanzhong, and I have paid countless hardships. Now I enjoy some benefits, which is what I deserve.

They think that Zhang Xiu at least turned a blind eye to such things.

But in front of Zhang Xiu, everyone panicked. After the incident, they knew that they might be severely punished, so they knelt down one by one and begged for mercy from Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu ignored the soldiers kneeling on the ground, looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "what's your name?"

Shopkeeper way: "villain Nie Fugui!"

After hearing the name, Zhang Xiu moved in her heart.

In this era, the mainstream names are two words, while those from poor families are only three words. Through Nie Fugui's name, Zhang Xiu roughly understood Nie Fugui's family background and the reason why he was timid and didn't dare to cause trouble. She then said, "Nie Fugui, you can't hide here. Do you understand?"

"Yes

Nie Fugui answered carefully.

Zhang Xiu asked, "how many ious have you received since our general's army entered Chang'an?"

"There are more than thirty!"

Nie Fugui replied with a touch of helplessness on his face.

More than 30 IOU means that he has to pay a lot of capital in advance. He is a small business, long-term encounter credit situation, business will be very difficult.

Zhang Xiu glanced at several generals kneeling on the ground and asked, "these IOU are just those people in front of us, or are there IOU of other generals in the army?"

"Someone else's!"

Nie Fugui replied again.

Zhang Xiu ordered: "let the man go back to the wine shop and bring all the IOU."

"Here it is

Nie Fugui turned around and told the man to get the IOU.

Zhang Xiu's anger rose in her heart, but she continued to ask with patience: "the general's army has not been in Chang'an for a long time. In a short time, you have received more than 30 IOU. On average, how many dial generals come to eat free food in a day."

Nie Fugui said: "on average, five or six dials a day."

Zhang Xiu smoked at the corner of her mouth.

He was even more angry. Five or six batches of freeloaders a day were killing Nie Fugui. You know, people like Nie Fugui are small businesses and earn some hard money.

It's not easy.

It happened that so many people went to play autumn.

He kept asking questions to understand the situation of Nie Fugui's restaurant. In addition, he also inquired about the radical behavior of the generals in the city, as well as various improper places.

Nie Fugui answers Zhang Xiu's questions truthfully.

Just like this, the generals and soldiers kneeling on the ground were all terrified.

They are even more worried.

If things get worse, I'm afraid simple punishment can't solve the problem.

It's not long. Man's back.

A stack of IOU brought by the man, all handed to Zhang Xiu's hand.

When Zhang Xiu saw the names on the white paper, she immediately arranged for the soldiers to call all the people involved in the IOU according to the names on the IOU.

There were 15 people.

Among these 15 people, some of them have repeatedly issued IOU.

Zhang Xiu knows that there is more than that. There is only one person who can get a IOU. There are many people who can go to a restaurant to have a meal together.

He asked again.

One by one, 50 people were arrested again.

The hall has been unable to kneel down, and all the offenders are kneeling in the courtyard outside the hall.

Zhang Xiu made an inventory of it, and all the IOU accumulated to nearly 8000. For Zhang Xiu, the 8000 yuan is a drop in the bucket, but for Nie Fugui's small business, it is a huge sum of money.

Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to take 10000 yuan and hand it to Nie Fugui, saying: "this 10000 yuan is your compensation. This time, Ben will deal with it immediately and give you justice. If you don't hear about their departure, you come to the general's house to find me. "

Nie Fugui said thank you.

He was relieved when the debt was recovered.

For the rest, he doesn't care.

Nie Fugui left the general's mansion with his staff, but Zhang Xiu didn't give up. He immediately ordered, "come, call Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning."

"Here it is

The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.

After a short time, Huang Zhong and his wife arrived at the general's residence.

Zhang Xiu said: "come and see which generals are under your command."

Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning knew all the generals in the army very well and soon recognized them.

All three men have committed crimes.

The three don't know yet.

Huang Zhong asked, "general, what happened?"

Zhang Xiu said that officers and soldiers eat overlord meal to make a white note, and asked, "what do you think should be done?"Chen Dao's eyes were sharp, and said: "general, the salary of the army has never been less, but the officers and men are so willful and reckless, so they should be punished severely. Those who are under the command of humble posts will be punished with sixty staff and two months' salary. "

Huang Zhong and Gan Ning immediately agreed.

Both of them agreed with Chen Dao's suggestion that if the 60th army sticks down, people will be beaten to death.

On the buttocks, it's absolutely bloody. It's a heavy punishment.

Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said: "the punishment of the staff of the 60th army is not enough to pacify the people. At five o'clock tomorrow morning, gather your respective soldiers and assemble outside the south gate. "

"In the presence of all the people, the staff is responsible for 60 military staff. No staff can be spared. It must be severely punished."

"Only in this way can we kill the chickens and frighten the monkeys."

"Once upon a time, the generals under Guo Si's command were punished for their salaries, but they were killed completely. Nowadays, some people are overbearing, and it is difficult to be deterred without heavy punishment. "

Zhang Xiu said: "the lessons of Guo Si and Li Yi are right in front of us."

"These two men are still in custody in the army and have not been tried in public. They have a bad reputation. Countless people want to eat their meat and sleep their skin. They lose the hearts of the people, and the people hate and resent the people. If we do, we will not be far away from defeat. "

"The three of you are the chief generals in the army. You can't just think about training the army and enhancing combat effectiveness."

"Discipline in the army is equally important, and it is also a standard for measuring combat effectiveness."

Zhang Xiu said, "is that clear?"

Huang Zhong said, "I understand your humble position."

Chen Dao said, "I will obey the general's instruction."

Gan Ning said: "when you go back to your humble position, you will continue to publicize and implement it. If you still owe a white note, you will immediately make up for it. Nie Fugui's business is just one of them. It is expected that the rest of the merchants and peddlers may also be owed money. "

Zhang Xiu praised: "Xing Ba is right, Nie Fugui is just one of them. We can't compensate Nie Fugui and ignore the rest. If a case is to be dealt with, the rest must make up for it. We should make up for what we owe and let bygones be bygones. If you do it again, you will be punished. "

There must be a lot of people who make white slips. Zhang Xiu knows that he can't investigate one by one. It takes too much time and effort.

It can only be a model.

"I'll do it

Huang Zhong and Chen should go down together.

Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, make a notice to inform all the people in the city as soon as possible. At the end of tomorrow morning, outside the South Gate of Chang'an City, we will punish the officers and men who are tyrannical. "

"Here it is

Jia Yu immediately responded.

All the generals kneeling in and out of the hall were crying with regret. How did they not expect that there would be so much trouble when they were owed a white bill.

Zhang Xiu said: "take all your people away and put them in custody. When they go back, they will order the rest of the people who owe the white slips to return them today, otherwise they will be dealt with at the same time. "

"Yes

Huang Zhong and his three men should go down.

They left with their generals. In the hall, there were only Li Ru, Jia Xu and the strong men who protected Li Ru.

Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Wenyou, sit down!"

"General Xie!"

Li Ru bowed his hand to thank him, then lifted up his robe and sat down.

Zhang Xiu looked at Li Ru and said, "Wenyou, you are going to enter Guanzhong. Everything is in vain. There is a lack of talents. Wen you has outstanding talent. Are you willing to work for the general? "
