In the three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, there have been some disputes over pay, but Liu Ruyi is like this now. He doesn't talk nonsense at all, and directly hurts people when he comes up. The officers guarding the armory are really confused!
It seems to be a matter of course to be paid as a soldier, but how often can real food and wages be distributed to the lowest level soldiers on time and in the right amount?
Since the Jiajing period of the country, the overall economy has been gradually declining, and the fiscal deficit has been increasing day by day. The so-called emperor is either a little Taoist who likes to make alchemy and practice Taoism, or a carpenter who likes to make small inventions. It is not easy to meet an ambitious man.
A diligent and ambitious emperor who aspired to revive the Ming Dynasty, but he was also mean and ungrateful. He only knew how to provide benefits to the common people, but he did not dare to touch the interests of the so-called relatives of the emperor!
You know, 90% of Ming Dynasty’s wealth is in the hands of these people!
Even if all the people tighten their belts and don't eat or drink every day, how much money can be saved?
If the lambs are not allowed to eat grass, how can we expect them to grow new hair?
Liu Ruyi's heart was clear. Only a baby that can scream can have milk!
Blindly submissive and begging will not have any effect at all! The only way is to use your own strength to make them afraid, and let them understand that if they cannot suppress this matter, then I will make a big mistake!
Weapons and armor are essential items for every soldier on the battlefield. Their importance is self-evident!
With weapons, they can kill their enemies; with armor, they can better preserve their lives!
Liu Ruyi doesn't care about what others do, and doesn't even bother to waste his brain thinking about it. But the brothers under him must be well-dressed! These people are the capital for Liu Ruyi to settle down in this troubled world.
!How could Liu Ruyi be willing to let them risk their lives so easily?
Liu Ruyi has decided on this salary today!
At this time, the leading Baihu also wanted to understand that the man in front of him might be really evil today!
He wiped a few handfuls of blood from his face, forced himself to suppress his thoughts, and said respectfully: "Master Qianhu, if you have something to say, you can say it! But please don't hurt others again! It's better, it's better, let's
Go inside and talk?"
After he finished speaking, he pointed to Liu Ruyi at a small side hall not far away from the official hall.
Liu Ruyi couldn't help laughing. This was to use herself as a thorn in the side and to resolve it privately!
Liu Ruyi ignored his overtures, locked his sharp eyes tightly, and said calmly: "This brother from a hundred households, come in and talk? Can you take charge of this armory?"
Without waiting for his reply, Liu Ruyi turned around and shouted to the more than 200 soldiers: "Brothers, tell me whether I want to go in and talk with him!"
Zhao Canghai took the lead and raised his arms and shouted: "The damn Acropolis is too bullying! Let that bitch Wang Dapao get out!"
"Let that bitch Wang Dapao get out!"
"Wang Dapao, get out of here! Give me back my soldiers, armor, food and pay!"
The two hundred soldiers were excited and shouted loudly!
They were originally just the humblest refugees, and they could sink into the white loess at any time. It was Liu Ruyi who brought their lives back to normal. Seeing that their master had spoken, how could they not wave the flag and shout hard!
The crowd was like a ignited powder keg. Even the small officers who were watching on the sidelines waved their arms and shouted along with Liu Ruyi's soldiers!
They are from the same roots, and everyone's experiences are so similar! At this time, seeing someone willing to come forward, they were happy to beat the drum and cheer!
"You, you, do you really want to rebel?" The face of the official of the Hundred Households changed drastically. He really didn't expect that he was the first to accompany him to save face, and he lowered his head first, but these idiots still wanted to bite him!
"Rebellion, rebellion! Someone is coming! Go and report to the Commander! Go and report..."
He wanted to shout loudly, but Xiao Liu'er stepped forward and hit him hard on the head with the back of a half-foot-wide knife. The Baihu official shook his body and "thumped"
Fell to the ground.
Seeing this, everyone around him didn't even dare to take another look. They all dispersed, retreated dozens of steps away, and hid beside the armory's Yamen room, carefully watching the movements of Liu Ruyi and his party.
Liu Ruyi sneered slightly and gestured to the soldiers behind him. The soldiers shouted louder, fearing that the governor's office not far away could hear him.
At this time, two figures walked out of the main hall of the armory. After a moment, a fat man with a big belly and a fifth-grade Qianhu official robe walked out. It was Wang Dapao, the director of the armory!
He had already heard the commotion inside. He thought it was just a few young officers who had suffered injustice, making trouble, so he didn't take it too seriously!
This kind of thing happens every day, and Wang Dapao, who is broad-minded and fat, has seen it a lot! But what he didn't expect was that these people seemed to gather more and more, and their voices became louder and louder. If this spread to the Acropolis, or
The news spread to other nearby yamen, so Wang Dapao was afraid that he would inevitably be implicated, so he walked out slowly and leisurely.
Seeing the appearance of the real master, the small officers who had been waving flags and shouting quickly retreated and made way for them. Indignant as they were, the prestige that Wang Dapao had left behind on weekdays still gave these people an instinctive fear.
"What's the fuss about? Isn't this officer out? If you have anything to say, just let me know!" Wang Dapao glanced at Liu Ruyi who was riding a horse and said nonchalantly.
After all, he had seen big scenes before, so Wang Dapao really didn’t take it to heart!
Liu Ruyi didn't speak, but looked at him quietly.
At this time, the small bureaucrats in the armory who had originally retreated also found their backbone. A rather smart-looking Baihu official hurriedly whispered a few words into Wang Dapao's ear.
Wang Dapao's expression changed. He raised his head and looked down at Liu Ruyi. He saw his two younger brothers whose life and death were unknown!
"Hiss!" Wang Dapao took a deep breath of cold air. He suppressed the displeasure in his heart, forced out a smile, clasped his fists at Liu Ruyi and said: "I wonder which master is visiting this small place like Wang?
Please forgive me for the poor hospitality!”
"Nancheng Liu Ruyi!" Liu Ruyi didn't waste any time and directly reported his name.
"Oh! It turns out to be Mr. Liu! I've admired you for a long time, I've admired you for a long time!" After all, Wang Dapao was a local official, and he was able to get along well with the commanding officer Jiangjin. He naturally had some ability and audacity. He smiled and bowed his hand to Liu Ruyi.
, pretending to be confused: "Mr. Liu, I didn't know you were here today..."
"Master Wang, aren't you asking this question knowingly? Could it be that my more than 800 pieces of armor in Nancheng got away from someone else's hands?" Liu Ruyi asked with a sneer.
"Master Liu, what does this mean? Wang can't understand!" Wang Dapao was startled, but a stern look flashed in his small green bean-like eyes!
"Haha!" Liu Ruyi smiled slightly, "What does Liu mean? Mr. Wang, you know it in your heart! I also know it in my heart! We Mingren don't tell secrets! Liu will set off today for an expedition. Could you please Mr. Wang to send me
The Nancheng Army is short of eight hundred weapons and armors."
"Hahaha!" Wang Dapao also laughed loudly. He walked a few steps closer and lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Liu, this, this matter is a bit against the rules, isn't it?"
"Rules?" Liu Ruyi spread her hands pretending to be innocent, "You will be paid as a soldier, and you will pay back your debts! Mr. Wang, with these 800 pieces of armor, plus the brothers' three months of food and salary, do you still want to default on your debt?
"
"you!"
Wang Dapao was startled, and his fat face was livid with pain. He pointed his finger at Liu Ruyi, but it only stayed for a moment. He put it down again, calmed down his mind, and sneered: "Master Liu, this armor,
Whether the food and salary should be allocated or not is the final say of the commander. It’s useless for you to ask me to run errands! Let’s put this matter aside for the time being. You are indiscriminate and you will hurt me both.
Brother, how should we explain this?"
Liu Ruyi also sneered, "Mr. Wang, these two blind men of yours insist on stopping me from seeing you, Mr. Wang, so I will teach them a lesson for Mr. Wang!"
"You! Liu, what do you think this place is? Don't bully others too much!" Wang Dapao said angrily.
"Haha, Mr. Wang, don't be angry! These two blind bastards, it's okay if they meet you today, but if they meet the commander-in-chief or the commander in the future, they will probably hit you, Mr. Wang.
That's the job! Liu is so kind, doesn't Mr. Wang know about it?" Liu Ruyi said with a smile.
"Fart!" Wang Dapao couldn't hold it in any longer and cursed loudly, "Liu, what the hell do you want! If we don't give an explanation to a certain person today, we will let the commander make the judgment!"
"Wang, don't you fucking talk nonsense to me, even if your own father is here! Eight hundred sets of armor, half of them cannot be missing! Bring the things, I will leave! Otherwise..."
"Otherwise what? Haha! You surnamed Liu, you can't fucking bite me!"
Wang Dapao laughed wildly, "You bumpkin, what do you think this place is? Ah! Let me tell you, I have plenty of weapons and armor! But I won't give you even half of them! You committed a rebellion and openly rebelled, waiting to be sent to the commander.
Explain it!"
Liu Ruyi was not angry after hearing this, but her eyes were fixed on Wang Dapao's eyes, and she said with a smile: "Master Wang, so you are determined to have trouble with Liu?"
"Haha! Little brat, I don't care about you so much! Just prepare to wipe that shit off under your butt first!" Wang Dapao laughed disdainfully, as if he was about to see Liu Ruyi kneel down and beg for mercy.
"Oh! That's right!" Liu Ruyi nodded thoughtfully.
"Young man, it's good that you understand! If you kneel down and kowtow to me now to apologize, and I'm in a good mood, I might even be able to plead for you in front of the commander! Otherwise, you'll be waiting to go to the prison to confess.
Come on! Haha!" Seeing Liu Ruyi showing weakness, Wang Dapao became even more arrogant.
As if he couldn't stand Wang Dapao's arrogant face, even the horse under Liu Ruyi's crotch became a little restless and snorted constantly. Liu Ruyi gently reined in the horse and suddenly said in a cold voice: "Feng Zongjun Zuo.
Liangyu ordered Qianhuwang Dapao to embezzle military pay and deduct soldiers' combat armor. His crime should be punished! Come on! Get it for me and chop it down!"
Do you want to pull up a tiger skin to make a big banner? Not only you can do this, but I can too!
After a moment, Xiao Liuer and Xu Xianhui rushed forward with dozens of soldiers. They knocked Wang Dapao to the ground and tied him tightly. His soldiers still wanted to resist, but Xu Xianhui shot them one by one.
, and was nailed to the ground!
Wang Dapao was shocked, "Liu, let me go! You want to rebel! I..."
He wanted to say something else, but Xiao Liu'er tore off a bloody piece of clothing from the Baihu official who had just fallen to the ground and stuffed it into his mouth.
Immediately, on top of Wang Dapao's neck, Xiao Liu'er raised his machete high!

——————————————————————————
As for empty pay, this has happened in all dynasties.
It was most serious in the late Ming Dynasty and the late Qing Dynasty.
He is the ‘Boss Polar Bear’ who can compete with Emperor Mi in future generations.
In its later stages, the situation was also quite serious.
There has even been a situation where the "entire division and entire division organization" have been left with empty pay.
A certain army in the Far East was paid tens of thousands of people, but in the final investigation,
The real strength is less than one company.
The military structure of the Ming Dynasty was somewhat complicated, but compared with now, it has some shadows.
In some places, the boat will explain and compare a little bit, but I dare not explain it too clearly.
You know the reason!
Finally, please collect! Collect!
Don't let the boat and the fat guys be frightened again!
