, Biao obviously never thought that when several captains came forward to take him, the so-called confidants around him did not dare to move at all. These people had already lost their courage and would rather be the meat on other people's chopping boards than give them to others.

This is what he did.

Yang Biao was captured without hesitation, and then all the military attaches of the new army were summoned. Xu Qian gave them two choices.

One is to stay in office. Retention is very simple. Just nod. But nodding is not that simple. Xu Futai is a very reasonable person. If you still want to be in this position, you will have to be thoroughly investigated to make sure you are empty-handed.

Do you have a share in paying, do you have a share in withholding military pay, do you have a share in stealing ordnance, do you have a share in it? If so, then I'm really sorry, Yang Biao is your role model.

Of course, Xu Futai cannot attack a large area and take everyone away. Since you don't want to be investigated, of course there is another way for you, which is to resign. Anyway, you are full and satisfied, so get out immediately.

.

After Xu Futai finished speaking, many military attachés not only did not cause trouble, but they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Corruption and perversion of the law have always been about the top beam being crooked and the bottom beam being crooked. Mr. Yang is not a good guy, how can they be? When everyone saw that Mr. Yang was taken away, they couldn't help but feel uneasy, for fear that they would bring disaster to the fish pond.

, catch them all in one fell swoop when the time comes.

Who wouldn't be afraid of such a strong-armed figure? Not to mention, many of them are General Yang's new appointees. According to the one-pot officialdom theory, no one can escape. Fortunately, Dali Temple will come to check you. Good luck.

No, I might end up in jail.

Since Xu Qian had given him a way out, even though he lost his official position, it was still better than losing his life. Suddenly, everyone had plans and planned to resign.

Only one person remained. This person's surname was Qi Jingtong. He was once the commander-in-chief of water transportation in the south of the Yangtze River. He was born in a very good family. His father was the commander of the Dengzhou Guards. He was also a family of martial arts. His ancestors were the founding fathers of the country, so they were hereditary.

When General Mingwei was planning to build a new army in Zhejiang, his father broke up with him and contacted some aristocratic families, and transferred him to the new army to serve as a Qianhu.

The rest of the people were sent away, but Qi Jingtong was very impressed. He could tell that this guy should have been trained since he was a child and acted like a general. He thought his life experience was similar to that of Lu Bing. Everyone else had left, but he was the only one who left.

He must have stayed because he had stopped collaborating with others. Only after asking about his family background did Xu Qian understand.

If you are an ordinary person, with military pay deducted at the top, but with a free sleeve at the bottom, you will inevitably be ostracized, and maybe kicked away directly. After all, the business of corruption and perverting the law also has an industrial chain. The industrial chain must have terminals and on-line, and it must also

There must be cooperation from below. If everyone is trying to make money out of it, but you, a thousand households, can't make a living, then everyone will see that there is a real XX party among us. It is simply unreasonable to not take you.

That would be weird.

But obviously Qi Jingtong is not so easy to win. On the surface, his father is just a commanding officer. In the Zhejiang New Army, he is just a staff general. You don't need to be afraid, but the real great thing is that the Qi family is the only one who has achieved great results.

After the founding general of the country, several generations

Since then, he has served in the army with the title of General Mingwei. I don’t know how many martial arts families he is acquainted with. I am afraid that even the Nanjing Governor’s Yamen has his acquaintances. This kind of person is by no means easy to win.

If you take it down, if you lift a finger, who will be finished tomorrow?

As a result, although this Qi Qianhu didn't stick to the pot, no one could do anything to him. So gradually, although everyone found this person disgusting, they simply regarded him as nothing.

Xu Qian looked at Qi Jingtong and said, "Why don't you leave?"

Qi Jingtong was nearly forty years old at this time, but he looked quite young. Everyone came to see Xu Qian in official attire, but he was the only one who was covered in armor weighing more than twenty kilograms, but he didn't feel that

Seriously, he hurriedly said: "I've heard about Mr. Futai's name for a long time. Now Futai wants to purge the new army. It's too late for the general to rejoice. Why do you want to resign?"

After Xu Qian heard this, he was stunned for a moment, mainly because he had seen too many monsters, ghosts, and snakes, but now that he saw a normal person, he felt that it was abnormal.

Xu Qian said: "You also know that I want to purge the New Army, but to purge the New Army, I must first purge the military attachés. You are the only military attache left in the New Army. On the one hand, I will order someone to check you out.

The bottom line is that it depends on whether you usually live with them. On the other hand, if you want to serve in the new army, you have to start over. Everything must be in accordance with the rules of the Royal Academy."

Qi Jingtong cheered up and said: "The lower officials have heard about the name of the Royal Academy for a long time, so there is no problem. I just don't know how your Excellency plans to clean up the new army?"

Xu Qian smiled at him and said, "The first rule of the Royal Academy is don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

Qi Jingtong was greatly embarrassed. Xu Qian immediately called the team officer Qi Cheng, pointed at Qi Cheng and said: "He is younger than you, but within three months, you must practice with him. If you can't persist, I won't force you."

, you! Take the initiative to resign. If you can persist, I will have another appointment."!

Qi Jingtong hurriedly said: "Yes."

Now, it is indeed time to purge the New Army. Xu Qian dares to take down the general army, not because he can really ignore the rules of the court, but because the New Army has become the laughing stock of the emperor. If at this time, the New Army is not

Once things are sorted out, Emperor Jiajing’s so-called New Deal will really be

It has become notorious. Since it needs to be rectified, of course it must be carried out vigorously and resolutely. It is nothing to win a general soldier. The emperor probably can't ask for it. After all, it is the emperor's political achievement project. But to capture Yang Biao, let him take the responsibility for the omissions of the New Deal.

Black pot is undoubtedly a very good idea.

Anyway, as long as the emperor gives enough support, Xu Qian will have nothing to fear. As for the cabinet and the court, he no longer wants to pay attention to it. Anyway, in Zhejiang, he will be hated if he behaves well, so he might as well go out of his way.

Now, what Xu Qian has to worry about is the issue of purging the New Army. Fortunately, he brought the Royal Colonel, otherwise he might not have the energy to do this.

The first thing to do was to abolish the old, weak, sick and disabled. Naturally, these people were asked to pack their bags and get out. With a stroke of Xu's pen, more than 3,000 people were laid off.

Then, all the remaining 8,000 new troops were dispersed into teams of five. Each team appointed a royal captain and an acting team leader. The former team officer was still a team officer, just a small team officer, commanding the eight troops.

There are forty people in the team, and then they are squadron officers. Each squadron officer commands ten squads, which is 400 people. Above the squadron officers, there is a group officer, who commands ten squadrons, which is 4,000 people.

After reorganization, they practiced day and night according to the schedule of the royal captain.

Before midnight every day, the corps commanders wake up naturally, and then the morning drums sound. The corps commanders begin to wake up all the new army soldiers in the corps, then dress up, and then pull them to the school field to start standing in line. This station

, in the middle of the morning, after breakfast, I started running around Yuhang County. To the corps commander, these were simply not worth mentioning, but the new troops below were complaining endlessly.

It's just a matter of complaining. There are five people in charge of a team, and you are not afraid of being lazy. However, the new army gradually discovered that although these corps commanders were harsh, they were fundamentally different from the former military attachés.

In the past, the military attachés would lie down comfortably and order you to perform. It was you who worked hard and others watched. But although these captains are extremely harsh on you now, they set an example and you stand in line with them.

If you stand in line, not to mention the corps leader, you are the squad officer, the squadron officer, or the brigade officer, and you will stand with you for an hour.

When they stand, they remain upright, like a javelin, and will never be lazy. In this way, even the officials are like this, can you not stand? The officials are running away, can you not run7

Another change is the issue of food and military pay. You know, after the new army was organized and trained, the court paid military pay every month. But in the past, everyone could hardly get a penny. Why? It was all in the hands of the officials above.

The commander-in-chief also deducts one level from his hands, and then another level is deducted from the hands of the general and guerrillas.

Thousands of households are naturally on the same level. With such deductions at all levels, basically each person is left with a few copper coins. But now, it is clearly telling you how much your monthly salary is, when to get it at the military quarters office, and how.

Only now did these people know that they had a military salary of 1,300 cents a month, and they burst into tears.

Needless to say about food. In the past, people mostly ate gruel for three meals a day. There was nothing we could do about it. After all, there was money to be made for food. Officials had so many wives and concubines, and they all relied on this oil and water to support themselves. But it’s different now.

Now, we have enough rice, two pigs every three days, and Yuhang County has to send one or two pigs. Having rice and vegetables is definitely a luxury in this era.

After all, the human heart is made of flesh. Although these big-headed soldiers still complained endlessly during the drills and could not bear the stern eyes and harsh attitudes of the captains, most of them seemed to have support in their hearts.

After all, I don’t have to worry about food and clothing. After all, I am no longer a private slave. After all, I still have a salary to earn, and I can send some home. Although I endure hardships, after all, everyone endures the hardships together. None of the team officers complained about being tired or in pain. Could it be that

Can't you bear the fate of your own life?

So, everyone got serious and practiced during the day. At night, everyone moved small stools, and the team leader sat around with everyone, lit candles, and started chatting. Because there was no condition to ask a professor to teach people how to read, they chatted

It replaced night classes, and the content of the chat was naturally wild and random, and it was precisely because of this kind of small talk that the distance between them became closer.
