Chapter 186: Uproar between the government and the public, remarkable achievements
First update!
——————
Wang Gui also got a bandit as a slave, and he was very happy in his heart. He was watching everything Chang Xiao did, and the more he watched, the more unpredictable he felt!
He felt that what Chang Xiao did was really not something that Chang Xiao could do at his age. Even some veterans might not be as good as him. He noticed that Chang Xiao had previously selected more than 30 emaciated people from among the bandits.
After that, he deliberately turned around and selected six more relatively strong ones to kill. This in itself was for balance. The more than forty bandits were too many among more than a hundred people. More than thirty
Just right, there will be no problem. Although this is a small thing, it can be seen that Chang Xiao is thoughtful, leak-proof, and not greedy. This is the most rare thing.
And Chang smiled and said a few words, and simply dealt with the newly admitted bandits. You must know that although the number of these bandits was not large, there were more than thirty, and they were all strong and strong. If they got together to cause trouble, they would really
It is a big trouble, but now there is no need to worry about it. One soldier and one bandit are slaves. If these bandits are detained one-on-one, these commended soldiers will always keep an eye on these bandits.
Slaves, because they were their private property and were kept in isolation, prevented these bandits from causing trouble to the maximum extent possible.
This move is really wonderful. It not only solved the cause of the banditry, but also boosted morale. Now those generals and private soldiers who did not get the bandits as slaves are all feeling great regret and are gearing up to go again.
He robbed the bandits and made himself surrounded by many slaves. Without the slaves, he seemed unable to raise his head to see people.
"Sir, it's time for us to have a name. We need to raise a banner to become famous!" Wang Gui came to Chang Xiao's side and said.
Chang Xiao nodded slightly when he heard this, "You still have to ask, we are the Chang Family Army!"
In this battle, Chang Xiao was not happy, and Chang Xiao's soldiers were also unhappy. A total of 140 people fought, but only two were slightly injured. The fighting power of this group of bandits is really unbelievable to Chang Xiao.
Feeling boring.
The food for this group of bandits had just been cooked at the right time, as if it was specially prepared for the Chang Family Army and the others.
Chang Xiao and others were naturally unceremonious, cleaned up the body, and sat by the fire to eat the ready-made food.
After they had eaten and drank enough, they again sorted out the worth of this group of bandits and the bandits' food. These bandits were not very wealthy, and in the end, more than 500 taels of silver and thousands of large coins were found from their possessions.
Chang Xiao had a strict order before that he was not allowed to embezzle money. If he was found, he would be killed without mercy. Everything must be done according to the rules. Money is the worst thing to destroy military discipline and brotherhood, so it must be strictly controlled.
Both Chang Xiao's private soldiers and the generals knew Chang Xiao's temper, so they didn't dare to keep it secret and pay it all.
Chang Xiao waved his hand: "Keep half and divide the rest equally!"
All the generals were very happy when they heard this. They originally thought that Chang Xiao would swallow all the money. Even so, they did not complain at all. After all, they were all supported by Chang Xiao, and the court did not give them any salary. However,
Chang Xiao only wanted half, and the rest was divided equally, which made them feel very comfortable. Although the money was not much, Chang Xiao's attitude made them feel that it was worth working for Chang Xiao.
Then came the food and grass supplies. These things are more attractive than gold and silver. Although these bandits have no money, they have a lot of food, at least enough to feed five hundred people for three days. At this time, Chang Xiao took it.
At least it can feed Chang Xiao's group for ten days.
After Chang Xiao finished doing this, he felt that the power of faith in the official uniform he was wearing began to grow again. This time it was not only a spicy blood color, but also a hint of light gold. Chang Xiao realized it, and it turned out that this thing was
Trust and loyalty, obviously the blood color comes from the bandits, and the light gold color comes from Chang Xiao's generals. The golden color of loyalty and trust has never appeared on Chang Xiao's official uniform.
That night, Chang Xiao pulled up a big flag with a big Chinese character "Chang" written on it. This character was written by Dou Zhang. Chang Xiao's character was really ordinary. If he took it out, he would be laughed at. It was beyond ordinary.
What Xiao expected was that Dou Zhang was a gentle, quiet, weak-looking person, but his handwriting was extremely strong and powerful. At least the word "Chang" was called "Chang Xiao".
I finally have my own team!
Then this large banner with the Chinese character "Chang" began to roam around the surrounding villages and towns. Wherever there were bandits, there was this flag. In more than a month, the Chang family army defeated more than ten groups of bandits one after another.
After a thousand bandits' heads were accumulated, Wang Gui sent people to the capital to ask for rewards. This was winter. If it were summer, it would be impossible to accumulate them. At least they would have to be pickled, otherwise they would have stunk.
.
The head was sent to the Ministry of War, and the memorial to plead for merit was presented to Chongzhen. Not only was Chongzhen surprised, but all the civil and military ministers in the court who were waiting for the news of Chang Xiao's death were stunned. Then they all were in an uproar. The impeachment memorial was like a snowflake.
Pressing on Chongzhen's desk, everyone spoke in unison, saying that Chang Xiao was cruel and unkind. He killed people indiscriminately and pretended to gain military merit. It was despicable and shameful! He should be killed or cut into pieces with a thousand swords!
When Chang Xiao left the capital, there were only a hundred or so people. The ministers saw Chang Xiao off very clearly. How could they send thousands of heads at once? Needless to say, many people must have been killed to pretend to be the leader.
Military merit.
Even if these are the real heads of bandits, they must be killing people to take credit. In short, they are killing people. Therefore, it does not matter who these heads belong to. The most important thing is to use the opportunity to bring down Chang Xiao. This must not be called
Changxiao continues to grow bigger.
These memorials were all ignored by Chongzhen, and the memorial to Chang Xiao was also left behind. There was no praise or reprimand, and Chongzhen simply pretended that this matter did not happen.
The ministers had been making a fuss for several days, but when they saw that the emperor ignored them, they became bored and stopped making trouble.
The most annoying thing is not these ministers, but the saints in the Holy Religion who are guarding the only way Chang Xiao goes to Wuchang in order to kill Chang Xiao. These saints have set up a fatal trap and are waiting for Chang Xiao to fall into the trap.
, I didn’t know if I could wait left or right, I could see through the misfortune that Chang Xiao still hadn’t come. Finally I found out that Chang Xiao had sneaked into the path and started shouting with the bandits. These saints had no choice but to retreat temporarily, wasting a lot of thought and planning.
The sure-kill game had to be abandoned.
I have to say that Chang Xiao’s luck is getting better and better!
…
In just one month, the number of soldiers in Chang Xiao's hands increased from the initial 150 to 1,000. This process was a bit too fast. Originally, the Chang family army could even expand to 1,500, but Chang Xiao
I feel that the speed is increasing too fast. If it is not stable, something will happen. After all, the number of direct lines in Chang Xiao's hands is too small now, but there are ten times more slaves. To continue to expand without limit is to play with fire.
!
So Chang Xiao promulgated a new rule. If a slave kills thirty bandits, he can get rid of his slave status and become a formal member of the army.
In this way, even the enthusiasm of these slaves was mobilized. In fact, these slaves were unwilling to leave after entering Changxiao's army. The reason is very simple, because they can eat enough here, and they would not eat enough before.
Joining the ranks of bandits, but after becoming a bandit, the situation is similar to before. Only the leader of the bandits and the people close to the leader can have good food and drink. They just choose some food to eat and not starve to death.
It’s just a drink of soup. In contrast, although they became slaves here in Changxiao, their actual standards were much higher than before. As for the lowly status of being slaves, these bandits still didn’t care much.
, their current requirements are very low. If they can survive and have enough to eat, they will be in heaven. Now they have a future, and they may even become their own masters. They can stand up straight, feel proud, and all their thoughts begin
Come to life, sometimes class is definitely a good thing. It can make people surrender like a lamb, or it can make people fight like a tiger. Whether it is surrender or hard work, the purpose is to stand on the shoulders of others one day.
To be domineering and blessed.
And Chang Xiao's original team of 150 people, 17 died in the battle, and the rest basically had about ten slaves under their control. This was also the result of their individual bravery. Of course, the subordinates
The more slaves he has, the harder it is for these people to die, because wherever he kills, there is always a group of slaves risking their lives to protect him, and because it is not easy for him to die, he becomes even more desperate to kill the enemy, because after killing the enemy, he will be rewarded.
The next time they go to the battlefield, there will be more slaves protecting them. This is definitely a virtuous circle! Most of the seventeen people who died were caused by their lack of available slaves.
Chang Xiao's slaves were all selected from a hundred capable people. Basically all the skinny slaves had their heads cut off and sent back to the capital. Of course, there were exceptions like Dou Zhang, who had skills that would be useful to Chang Xiao.
Changxiao only found four people.
Chang Xiao is worried about something now, that is, the money in the hands of his soldiers is too much. After killing more than a dozen waves of bandits, each of these soldiers has been given a lot of money, so much so that they are already carrying it with them.
It's a bit inconvenient, it affects combat effectiveness, and money kills fighting spirit. A wolf that doesn't have enough to eat is the most effective. Wouldn't a well-fed wolf turn into a dog?
Chang Xiao has a way, selling knives! Selling armor!
