It was the officers of the three big castles under Zhenkoubao who came here.
The power represented by these three team officers is not small. After all, the Baozhai under their jurisdiction is at the same level as Xiaoqiangbao, so Yang Shanlu also attaches great importance to it. After these three came to the Qianhu Official Hall, Yang Shanlu summoned him immediately. Up them.
"Sit down, everyone—"
Yang Shanlu said very enthusiastically, and among them, he is no stranger to these three team officers. As for Xu Shicheng among them, he is very familiar. After all, this was his immediate boss before.
"Thank you, Master Defender—"
The three team officers were hurriedly saluting. After they took their seats, Xu Shicheng was still very emotional. The young man in front of him thought he was just a small armor captain at the beginning, but now... he is already an object to look up. But he quickly picked up his mood, because this time he came over, there are more important things to talk about.
"My lord, we know that you are busy with official duties, so we don't go in circles anymore. We came here to want to know, what are your plans for the Tuntian where our three military fortresses belong?" Xu Shicheng asked.
Among the three, he and Yang Shanlu are the most familiar, so these three team officers elected Xu Shicheng to negotiate with Yang Shanlu.
When Yang Shanlu heard this, his face was very serious, and he said affirmatively: "You came just right, originally I wanted to call you over, but now that this issue has been discussed, I can tell you clearly... The farm must be taken back, absolutely. Private embezzlement is not allowed!"
Okay, after getting this clear answer, the three people looked at each other and their faces were a bit ugly. Although they had guessed before they came over, it would probably be like this. After all, the changes in the village of Zhenkoubu were really vigorous. It's too big, but now it falls on them...
Xu Shicheng looked at the other two team officers, and then said in a quiet voice: "My lord, can't it be accommodating? For example, Qing quit part..."
"Master Xu, you and I have been together for many years, so you can be regarded as old friends. If I can be accommodating, I will definitely be accommodating, but it is a pity that the Tuntian thing is absolutely not possible!"
Yang Shanlu answered very hard, a joke, relying on farming to raise a strong army, this is the foundation of his army! And these three subordinate Dabao’s farms have more than 30,000 acres of land in total, which is an important part of his implementation of this plan. How can it be accommodated
Hearing that Yang Shanlu had said so clearly, all three of them sat down in their chairs. Among them, the faces of two of the team officers were blue and white, white and blue, and even the veins on their foreheads were blue and white. I jumped out, looking like I wanted to get into trouble! But in the end, he could only give up dejectedly.
What else can we do... If Yang Shanlu is the same as the other senior officials of the health institute, he said that he is high-sounding and secretly invaded the farmland, then they can fight back. After all, the big brother should not laugh at the second brother.
But now Yang Shanlu is sitting right upright, he hasn't invaded the land, and then he has the righteous status. If he is suppressed in the name of the higher official, can they resist it? After all, the occupation of the farm was only carried out in secret, but it cannot be placed on the table...
But when they came this time, apart from farming, there was another important thing that they had to ask face-to-face.
So after these three people looked at each other, they still named Xu Shi as the leader. He just coughed and asked: "My lord, since this is the case, then I want to ask, what do you think about the three of us? Or? To be more specific, what do you have to say about the family members of the three of us?"
After all, old-fashioned officers like them, Jiading is their foundation, and they also need to be asked clearly.
"Well, a good question -" Yang Shanlu nodded and said, "I wanted to discuss this issue with you. In short, you have two choices, that is, you can go or stay.
If I stay, my attitude is welcome, but you also know that I have very strict requirements on the army, so if you stay, you must join my Xuanjia army and be used at a lower level. As for whether you will be promoted or downgraded in the future, it depends on your performance in the military.
As for your family members, they rushed into the Xuanjia Army after they were broken up. In other words, you clean up and enter the house and disband the family members. "
"It's impossible!" After Yang Shanlu finished speaking, the two team officers almost jumped up... They would never agree to this!
Not to mention that if you stay, you will be demoted and used, and those family members have been their painstaking efforts for many years! It is their only guarantee for these military abilities to gain a foothold in this troubled world! But now, even the foundation of their body has to move? This will never work!
On the contrary, Xu Shicheng, although his face was equally unhappy, he did not express his opinion.
But Yang Shanlu didn't care when he saw it. To be honest, he had expected this situation a long time ago... These old-fashioned officers only had this knowledge.
So he smiled and said: "You don't have to be excited. In addition, you have a second choice, that is, you can choose to leave, and if you leave, I will send you a generous compensation!
After all, your farmland has been cleaned up, and there will be some losses. In addition, you will have to comfort your subordinates, but you can rest assured, I also know that it is not easy for you to support these families, so this compensation fee will be higher than the compensation standard for cleaning up the farmland in Zhenkoubao. , And doubled again. "
"Oh—" After these three people listened, the anger on their faces faded a lot... I felt that Yang Shanlu's sincerity in doing this was quite sufficient.
After all, they all know that this kind of thing cannot be put on the table by occupying the farmland and then supporting the family. If they are unwilling to stay, they have to leave, and now Yang Shanlu is willing to give them a generous compensation. , Is already quite sincere.
Unexpectedly, Yang Shanlu went on to say: "In addition, after you leave, you will not have nowhere to stay. I will recommend you to Yu Zhenlong. You all know that Master Yu has now been promoted to the command of ethics. There are many castles, and if you take a family member to join you, he will definitely welcome him very much."
After all, Yang Shanlu knows very well that the family members of these people do not take him seriously, because although these family members are outstanding in personal strength, they are more suitable for bodyguards. If they are in the army, they are not the best choice. Not to mention that Yang Shanlu develops a firearms force. No matter how good his personal martial arts are, can he still be able to beat a gun
Of course, it will be different if you go to Yu Zhenlong. Old-fashioned military officers like him are definitely very welcome to such generals with family members to vote.
The three of them nodded when they heard it, feeling that what Yang Shanlu thought about them was very thoughtful, and they needed to make a choice next.
But this matter is very important. After the three people looked at each other, they said: "Defender, this is a very important matter. Please allow us to discuss it.
"Yes -" Yang Shanlu nodded, expressing his understanding. After all, this is not an exaggeration for them as a major decision in life, and should be treated with caution, but for Yang Shanlu now, it is almost already There is no impact anymore.
Then Yang Shanlu just avoided it. After a stick of incense, the three people said that they had negotiated, and Yang Shanlu returned to the official office.
Only after he returned, he found that the situation on the field had changed subtlely. The expressions of two of the team officers showed a hint of relief, and the more obvious one was a little angry. On the contrary, Xu Shicheng, who he is most familiar with, has been with that. The two team officers quietly opened up the distance, and apparently had made a different choice with them.
Before Yang Shanlu could question, Xu Shicheng had already said first: "My lord, we have already discussed it. The two of them are leaving, and I decided to stay."
After hearing Xu Shicheng say it, the other two team officers became even more ugly. In fact, the three of them had already agreed to advance and retreat together before they came over, but now it collapsed in minutes. Of course, they knew too. When faced with such a major decision, the previously stated alliance has no binding force.
However, Yang Shanlu felt a little surprised. Originally, he thought the limitations of this era. Hearing that they were going to disband their family members, most of them would choose to leave. Unexpectedly, there would be another one to stay. It seems that he will have to talk to him later. Let's talk about it.
But now is not the time to delve into this, Yang Shanlu just nodded and said: "Very well, I am glad you made your choice. Then in five days, I will send someone to your fort and count the number of farms. The compensation will be paid on the spot.
In addition, I will give Master Yu a letter of resignation, and I will also give him a sum of money to cover the cost of your transfer. "
After all, Yang Shanlu still knew that, although he had already negotiated with the two officers in charge, the transfer of a military officer with real power like the officer in charge still needed to inform the Ministry of War.
Of course, this is also no problem. First, the recipient and the recipient agree, but it is just a formality. The second is that with the current virtues of the officialdom at the end of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the money is in place, there is nothing that can't be done. .
"Thank you, my lord -" After hearing this, the two team officers stood up and gave their thanks. To be honest, they were actually'pushed away' by Yang Shanlu, but they didn't feel like they could hate it. After all, Yang Shanlu It's still very beautiful.
Or it can be said that other people must compare their business with each other, but Yang Shanlu's business is magnificent! After all, Yang Shanlu knows very well that in the face of the most important matter of severely hitting the Tartar next year, everything else can be compromised!
So there is no need to talk about the next thing. Now that the negotiation is completed, the two team officers also left in a hurry. After all, they have already said that they will complete the handover procedures within 5 days. They have already asked for it. I was anxious to go back and make arrangements.
After the two left, Yang Shanlu looked at Xu Shicheng who remained, and smiled and said, "Hehe, I am very happy that you can stay, and I believe that your decision will not be wrong!"
"Yes, the lower officials have seen adults!" Xu Shicheng solemnly knelt on one knee and paid a big salute, and after this prayer, he said that he had officially invested in Yang Shanlu's command.
"Why Master Xu should be like this—" Yang Shanlu hurriedly helped him up: "Before you, as my superior, you took good care of me, so you don't need to see outside now."
But to be honest, seeing the former boss, now kneeling respectfully in front of him, there is still a sense of accomplishment.
When Xu Shicheng saw his sincere words, he stood up. To be honest, he was still a little uncomfortable with this change of identity... But he also firmly believed that his choice was correct!
After all, he is different from the two team officers. Yang Shanlu had grown from a small armour, and then step by step to today, he saw it all!
Not to mention the incredible things that Yang Shanlu did, like the development of saline-alkali land, the division of fields for military households, the training of an elite division, and the elimination of the entire town’s captives and bandits... The man who can do so many magical things, he I firmly believe that following him is definitely not a wrong choice!
And since he is willing to stay, he is his own. After Yang Shanlu said some words of encouragement, he was asked to call the group of four under his hand. Xu Shicheng was willing to stay. From now on, he would be the army who will fight together. Everyone just took this opportunity to get to know him.
Because the Qianhu official hall was very large, the office of the 4-member group was also moved into the official hall, so Qi Zhenzong, Cheng Wu and others arrived soon.
But when he learned that Yang Shanlu had solved the problems of the three big castles under him, and Xu Shicheng had stayed, they all congratulated him.
Although Xu Shicheng is the official title of Hundred Households, and Cheng Wu pretended to salute him, Xu Shicheng didn't even dare to say it.
After all, he knows very well that even though he will still try the official title of a hundred households after he is demoted by one level, he really wants to talk about real power, and it is really not as good as these general banners, not to mention that these people are still Yang Shanlu's old people. Brother, the degree of intimacy is not comparable to that of a foreigner who is halfway through his home.
Of course, after seeing Cheng Wu and several people, Xu Shicheng's heart was full of fighting spirit. Once upon a time, these people were still vulgar military households whom he didn't even know their names, but now, because they are closely following Yang Shanlu, they are already Raised to the position of the general flag, since such military households can do it, what about yourself? Ha ha…
So after everyone saw each other, Yang Shanlu was also very happy, ha ha, his team has grown again.
However, since it was a celebration, he asked Lin Zhenfu, Hai Jilian, and his uncle Sun Changming, including Hai Rigu, who was staying at Xiaoqiangpu, to call in to join this celebration banquet. .
Good guy, after all these people arrive, plus Liu Dabangma, there are a full twelve people. You can't even sit on a table of Eight Immortals, so Yang Shanlu added a big round table on the table of Eight Immortals. Reluctantly sit down.
Although it's still a bit crowded, most of these people are military fighters and don't care about this. Moreover, for the first time meeting like this, only by drinking and drinking at a table can we get closer to each other...
And these people, after they are on the table, they all know that those who can drink here today will be the core team of the defensive adults in the future.
After the drink was started, the atmosphere quickly became warm... Among them, Qi Zhenzong was the happiest! It's rare to drink a lot...
Think about it, can he be unhappy? After all, he has already inquired about the fact that this time he has won three large forts including Chang'an Fort, but he has nearly 40,000 acres of farmland!
What is this concept? You must know that in the past, all kinds of hard work in Xiaoqiangbao, all kinds of pieces together, only put together 20,000 acres, but now, it has doubled! Adding to the more than 10,000 mu of Zhenkoubao, there is a total of 70,000 mu!
With so many farming fields, can the 500 soldiers he is looking forward to be far away
Including the newly added Lin Zhenfu, Hai Jilian and others this time, they are not corpse-position vegetarians, but sincerely hope to do something, but now seeing the entire Zhenkou Fort, they have begun to clean up bad habits, both inside and outside. New, will you still be unhappy
So this banquet was just a happy meal.
After eating and drinking, Yang Shanlu had just returned to the backyard, and the girl Xiao Yuer greeted him graciously. She first served him sober tea, and then beat his shoulders on his back.
This is also very obvious. You know that the little girl now often feels dizzy. Just a year ago, she was just a child bride at the bottom, but now, she has become a pillow for the defensive adult. Bianren!
And it has only been a short year, if this is in the future, the little girl dare not think about it...
So, naturally, it goes without saying that the little girl was very gentle that night, and took good care of Yang Shanlu. Even the several postures that Yang Shanlu always wanted to do before, the little girl refused to do because of etiquette, but now she also offered a full set of shameful answers, allowing Yang Shanlu to enjoy it.
But now Yang Shanlu is really busy. Even after the rain and clouds, he still does not forget to discuss business with the little girl. He just stroked the smooth back of the little girl and said: "Yu'er, you are preparing for a sum of money these days. I will give those two team officers at that time."
"Ah!" Unexpectedly, the little girl opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Master, you still have to spend money... We are all out of money!" (End of this chapter)
