"Although these people have escaped the pursuit of the rebels, if they leave it alone, they will be difficult to survive." Lin Dong shook his head and thought about ways to dismiss the people.

"General, according to the villain's opinion, it is better to take all these victims into military households. In this way, the general can not only form a team immediately, but also settle the people, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

"Speak on." Originally, Lin Dong planned to pay each person five cents of travel expenses for them to go home by themselves, but now after Cheng San said this, he immediately changed his mind.

Cheng San's method is indeed feasible. You must know that in ancient times, population was productivity and combat effectiveness. If you want to strengthen your own power, it would not work without a population. Otherwise, there would not be so many policies to encourage childbirth in history, but I don't know whether the people are willing.

Be your own military household.

After thinking for a while, a plan took shape in his heart, and he immediately asked someone to invite Su Yi.

Soon Su Yi walked in with a smile on his face. This time he came to Fengyang and got so much supplies at once. The happiest person was Su Yi. He lost his family from his childhood. His family spent all his savings to support him in order to study. Later,

Life is even more difficult for his parents to die. Even the travel expenses for the exam were all borrowed. They were not paid off until he became a bandit. Otherwise, he would not have been caught by the bandit and willingly become a mountain.

The thief's master. This trip to Fengyang was a great reward. He had never seen so many supplies since he was a child. He was so excited that he couldn't sleep for several days. He kept shouting that he had made a fortune and made a fortune.

"General, are you looking for me?" Su Yi was now impressed by Lin Dong and was extremely respectful when he spoke.

"I have something to leave to you." Lin Dong said slowly.

"Please give orders to the general."

"You also saw that I brought the people outside from Fengyang City, but how to settle down is a little troublesome. After some deep thought, I am going to take the people who are willing to go back to Andong as military households.

When you go to the county, those who don’t want to go with you will be paid five cents of silver by one person and let them go home by themselves. You can prepare some money and supplies."

"General, no!" Su Yi frowned and shook his head as if he was rattle.

“Why?”

"So many people, eating and drinking along the way, without thousands of stones of grain, they could not support Andong County. In addition, those who were unwilling to follow would have to pay travel expenses. The travel expenses cost several thousand taels of silver, which was a huge loss of business.

After an estimate, I, Anton Army, wouldn't I lose tens of thousands of taels of silver at once? General, we can't do the business that is losing money! Besides, these materials were exchanged for our Anton Army's life. Isn't it a pity that I gave them to these people for nothing.

?” Su Yi said reluctantly.

Lin Dong couldn't help but feel funny. Why is Su Yi becoming more and more like an iron rooster? He doesn't want to take out any of the things he has in his hand?

Mr. I don’t know that my plan is to do this. Our Anton Army suffered a lot of losses this time. If these people join our Anton Army, they will not only be able to make up for the lost soldiers, but also place the people well. How can they

Have fun but not done it?

"But General! Even if these people who join our Anton Army can support them with military funds, what is the explanation for those who do not want to stay and pay travel expenses?"

Lin Dong had no choice but to say patiently: "The purpose of our Andong Army's army is to protect the people. Now that the people are in trouble, I, Andong Army, can't I ignore it?"

"General, but!"

"Okay, there's nothing but it's okay, just do what I said." Lin Dong waved his hand to stop him, signaling Su Yi not to persuade him anymore.

Su Yi had no choice but to take the order and retreat.

"General, the villain has another request." Cheng Sancai said flatteringly after Su Yi left.

"What's the matter?" Judging from Cheng San's attitude, you know that it was not a good thing. Lin Dong frowned slightly. Cheng San was really good at picking things.

Cheng San immediately said what he wanted. According to Cheng San, the reason why he was able to successfully get the seal and take down the warehouse of the prefect's yamen was due to his brothers.

In addition, the personnel of Tienniu and others who were occupied by the warehouse were inseparable from Tien Niu. The reason why these brothers were willing to contribute to the Anton Army was that they promised to join the Anton Army, so they wanted to ask Lin Dong to accept it.

Let's go with his brothers.

Lin Dong was stunned. Cheng San was so brave that he dared to write a blank check without the ability to size. However, he didn't expect that there would be so many stories after getting the official seal, so he immediately asked about the details.

Under his inquiry, Cheng San vividly explained how he would seize the seal, how he took the gold and silver in the treasury of the prefect's yamen, and how he drove away the officers and soldiers.

According to him, when they returned to the dock, Tie Niu volunteered to take his brothers to the prefect's office, but he never thought that when they came to the prefect's office, the door was already closed, and Tie Niu was furious and made people feel like he was

I found a log and asked everyone to carry the log to hit the gate.

Under the impact of the log, the door was quickly smashed open. Tie Niu was angry and rushed in with a knife. Some yamen runners wanted to stop him and killed all the brothers who were brought by Tie Niu.

A group of people rushed into the prefect's office and searched for it, but they did not find the head of the magistrate and Yan. Everyone was confused in their hearts, and suddenly a man dressed in a servant ran out of it.

Tie Niu was furious and asked someone to catch the servant. After interrogation, he found out that Prison Yan had actually hid in the prison.

So Tieniu led his people to the prison. Under the guidance of the servant, he quickly found the prefect Yan and the headmaster.

Everyone tortured again and forced the two to hand over the seal.

After getting the big seal, Tienniu was worried that the prefect Yan would take revenge after he went back, so he simply did not do anything and directly killed the prefect Yan and the chief.

When they came back, several people snatched the warehouse of the prefect's yamen again. When they saw the full warehouse of gold and silver, they immediately called An Dongjun and transported it to the ship to protect it.

Lin Dong frowned when he heard this. If Cheng San had not lie, then the brothers Tieniu had made great contributions, but judging from their actions, they were a little useless. Such people were not in the army.

suitable.

Lin Dong had a headache. Should he accept Tieniu and the others? Please accept it, because he was afraid that they would lead the other soldiers to ruin, so he would not accept it. These people are all meritorious people. It is not in line with the rules of An Dong's army if they have meritorious deeds.

Is it a reward or a punishment? Lin Dong thought for a moment and thought of a good idea.

"Cheng San, do you know your guilt?" Lin Dong shouted coldly.

"General, please spare me!" Cheng Sanzheng said proudly, and was suddenly interrupted by Lin Dong's interruption. He was shocked and hurriedly fell to the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic.

"Li Da, according to military rules, Cheng San did not respect the order to borrow weapons to act privately, and even killed the imperial officials. What crime should he be punished?" Lin Dong asked with a stern face.

"If you follow the rules of the army, you will be killed if you do not respect the orders and act without respecting the orders!" Li Da said word by word.

Cheng San was sweating coldly. Is the general going to settle the score after autumn?

"General, please spare me. I am also doing my business for the general. I would like to ask the general to be kind to you from the law." Cheng San wailed.

"I'm a good person to do things for me. Can you violate military orders by doing things for me?" Lin Dong shouted.

"Yes, yes, it's the villain's fault. Please forgive me this time." Cheng San was so scared that he trembled all over and begged hard.

"Li Da, according to your opinion, how should this matter be handled according to military rules?"

"Return to the general, you should kill three times in this journey according to military rules!

Cheng San was shocked, his heart was cold, his head was even harder, and he kept begging for mercy.

Li Da paused slightly and said, "Chen San is the general's clerk, not a military officer, so this military rule is not suitable for him. In my opinion, it is better to remove Cheng San's post and punish him for half a year.

.” Li Da saw Lin Dong's expression in his eyes and said with a moment of contemplation.

"Is that true?"

"Yes!"

"Is it a violation of military rules?" Lin Dong asked again.

"Cheng San did not serve in the military, so it is not considered a violation of military rules."

"Since that's the case, then follow General Li's suggestion, remove Cheng Sanshu Office from his post and punish him for half a year." Lin Dong announced immediately.

Seeing that he was exempted from death, Cheng San was overjoyed and hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him.

"My Andong Army will be punished for any crime and rewarded for any merit. You have made a lot of contributions this time, and it is indeed a bit in awe of talent to be with me." Lin Dong suddenly said this, and Cheng San was stunned and said to himself: "

What does the general mean? Do you want to drive me out of Andong's army?"

Lin Dong's eyes glanced at Cheng San, and an invisible pressure instantly covered Cheng San.

"General..., Jun..., Cheng San is frightened!"

"You have made great contributions this time. If you don't reward it, it will not be in accordance with the rules of Anton Jun. I don't think so. You are responsible for forming an intelligence collection organization and are directly responsible to me, but I can only provide funds. As for how to collect intelligence, how to do so

Recruiting personnel and how to cultivate talents depends on yourself, are you willing to do this?" Lin Dong knew the role of intelligence in the war, and now he has some wealth, so this matter should be put on the agenda.

"Ah!" Cheng San was shocked. What a great gift this was. He could actually get the general's trust and let himself stand alone. He immediately cried and expressed his determination.

Lin Dong nodded with satisfaction and said, "As for the brothers you mentioned, you can do it yourself, but if you are clear, although you are one, the rules in the army must be kept. As for their killing of Yan before

The matter of the prefect, well, they had not officially joined our army at that time, and our army's military law could not be done by them, but such a thing must not be done anymore, otherwise, there will be no mercy to kill!"

"Yes, thank you General!"

Cheng San kowtowed a few times before he retreated happily.

In this way, Cheng San's affairs had been dealt with. Lin Dong first hit him hard, making him dare not make any more, and then reused him. Cheng San was surprised and happy, and his mood was like a roller coaster, with ups and downs, but

But his attitude towards Lin Dong became more and more respectful.

After Cheng San left, Lin Dong went to find Lao Wei again. At this time, Lao Wei and others were resting on the boat. When Lin Dong arrived, they stood up one after another.

"Have you met General Lin!"

Lin Dong waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be too polite. I'm here this time to ask you what you plan?"

"We are not familiar with the place now, what are the plans for us?" said a strong man beside him.

The man's surname is Zhao, his name is Dabiao, and he is a general flag, nicknamed Biaozi, and he is very powerful. Generally, he is unable to get close to him by three or five.
