Chapter two hundred and ninety first military pay is coming
Ma Xiaojun's face was full of embarrassment, and his face suddenly turned red.
"Brother, I'm just joking. Come on, let's sit down and talk slowly." Zhu Zhengtao pulled him down and said, "You have not been paid in the army for several months, right?"
Ma Xiaojun nodded silently.
"It is only natural that soldiers should be paid on a monthly basis when fighting in wars." Zhu Zhengtao no longer joked, but said seriously: "If we don't pay, the Black Death will naturally lead to pay. It's okay now, but I'm afraid it won't happen later.
It will get out of hand once it happens.
"Brother Wenshan, I know all this, but what can I do?" Ma Xiaojun let out a long sigh: "I just hope that the superiors can pay the military salary as soon as possible, so as to appease the brothers." "The superiors? What do you still hope?
Are you paying from above?" Zhu Zhengtao sneered: "Lu Rongting can't even get a piece of the ocean out of him!"
Ma Xiaojun and Bai Chongxi were both shocked: "How does Brother Wenshan know?"
"It's not just me, the whole of Guangxi knows about it. Only you soldiers are still kept in the dark. Do you know why Lu Rongting doesn't dare to issue you banknotes?"
Ma Xiaojun and Bai Chongxi shook their heads.
Zhu Zhengtao's face was solemn: "Because the Bank of Guangxi is an empty shell, the banknotes are worthless, and they are about to be discarded. The payment arrears can be postponed for a while, but if what the soldiers are holding is a pile of waste paper, then it will be
There will be a mutiny, and no one can control the situation!" "Inspector, the inspector really has no money?" Ma Xiaojun still didn't believe it.
"Not only does he have no money, he simply owes a lot of debt." Zhu Zhengtao lowered his voice and said: "For banks, banks, [Chinese] people, and foreigners, the interest is five to six cents, but
He hasn't come up with any money at all. Do you know why?" "I heard that investing in the stock market failed?" Ma Xiaojun said hesitantly.
"The stock market?" Zhu Zhengtao waved his hand and said: "God knows what he did with the money, but now people are everywhere in Guangxi looking for him to collect debts. He can still send away the Chinese people, but what about the foreigners? Now
No one will lend him a dime anymore. Guangxi Bank is going to fail if Lu Rongting is to fail!"
Ma Xiaojun and Bai Chongxi took a deep breath.
The patrol is going to fall? What to do with so many troops? What to do to the brothers?
Zhu Zhengtao sighed: "What do you rely on to fight a war? It's not how brave the soldiers are in fighting, it's money. Now not only can you not pay military salaries, but you can't carry out normal maintenance. Not to mention you, even those
Administrative officials have not had leadership salaries for several months. If the guess is correct, Guangxi will be in chaos!"
"Is there any room for salvation?" Ma Xiaojun asked with luck.
"There is no room for salvation." Zhu Zhengtao said coldly: "The hole he dug is too big and too deep, and he can't even fill it in. For 60 million, there are rumors outside that he has pulled down a total of 60,000.
The loss of ten thousand has stirred up people's thoughts and no one is willing to work seriously anymore. Lu Rongting is finished. Only you soldiers don't know the truth!"
A look of despair emerged from Ma Xiaojun's face.
In fact, he doesn't care who is the patrol envoy, but what about the promise he made to his disciples?
The brothers are eagerly waiting for double pay, no, even a month's military pay in advance, but now all this has come to nothing...
The only hope is that what Zhu Zhengtao said are all lies and rumors. But this seems unlikely. Zhu Zhengtao has no reason to make up these things.
"Batalion Commander, it's bad, something serious has happened!" Yanwen, a child from the camp, hurried in with a look on his face as if he was facing a formidable enemy: "I just got the news that there is a run on the Guangxi Bank. The manager has escaped overnight. The Guangxi Bank is finished!"
It was like a thunderbolt hitting Ma Xiaojun's head.
Tong Yanwen continued: "Not only that, the banknotes issued by the Bank of Guangxi were also finished, a large number of businessmen and people gathered at the patrolling ambassador's house, and some were crying and seeking death! I heard that there were even machine guns at the door of the patrolling ambassador's house.
It's been set up, and foreign banks have also sent people to negotiate!" Before Ma Xiaojun could come to his senses, someone else came in and said: "The battalion commander and division commander ordered our model battalion to stop marching into Hunan and immediately move towards Nanning.
move!"
"Brother, Lu Rongting is jealous. He wants to use force to suppress him!" Zhu Zhengtao said unhurriedly.
Ma Xiaojun ran out of ideas for a moment.
What should I do? What should I do now?
Go to Nanning? Help with the suppression? Brothers, how should you explain yourself?
Don't you want to go? That means disobeying military orders and you will lose your head!
Bai Chongxi acted very calmly: "Battal Commander, you can't go. Once we go, we will be sinners. We will be thrown out as scapegoats and no one can save us! Based on the current situation, something big is really going to happen in Guangxi!"
Then, what should we do?" Ma Xiaojun said.
Bai Chongxi glanced at Zhu Zhengtao: "Mr. Zhu, are you here to help us?" Zhu Zhengtao was startled for a moment, and then laughed: "Brother, you are really lucky to have such a helper. Yes, I am
This time, I am indeed here to help you.
After saying that, he stood up and called outside. Soon two more men came in carrying a box, put it down, and then quickly walked out again.
Zhu Zhengtao opened the box calmly, and slowly a box of oceans appeared in front of everyone.
Several officers were stunned. Zhu Zhengtao smiled slightly and said: "Everyone, this box of ocean is military pay, and it is also life-saving money for you!"
"This, this" Ma Xiaojun didn't know what to say at all.
Bai Chongxi glanced at Dayang: "These Dayangs, if my guess is correct, Wang Hengyue asked you to bring them, right?"
Zhu Zhengtao was astonished. This young officer was so thoughtful and his reaction was so fast.
Bai Chongxi said calmly: "Wang Hengyue has been watching Guangdong and Guangxi for a long time. Now that such a big thing has happened, why shouldn't he intervene? The brothers were eagerly waiting for the money, so he gave it away.
Come, Guangxi doesn’t need to fight, it’s about to become Wang Hengyue’s!” “Jiansheng, I’m convinced of you.” Zhu Zhengtao gave a thumbs up: “Yes, this is the southwest patrol envoy Wang Hengyue, the king asked me to give him
You sent it!"
No one said anything. Now the Southwest Patrol Envoy and the Guangdong and Guangxi Patrol Envoy have nothing to do with them. The only thing they have to consider is their own future!
The Guangxi clan was very united before, but now it is a matter of life and death. If you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff.
Looking at this, I'm afraid Lu Rongting is really going to fall...
"Captain Ma, and everyone." Zhu Zhengtao no longer concealed anything: "Whether the king's patrol is in Guangxi or the land patrol is in Guangxi, brothers always need to eat, not only in your model camp, but also in Guangxi.
Each battalion has now received the first batch of military pay from the King's Patrol Envoy! The King's Patrol Envoy is here to repay the debt owed by the King's Patrol Envoy! The King's Patrol Envoy asked me to bring a message to you, as long as he enters
In Guangxi, he will pay all the military pay he owes, and it is a real double pay!"
It's time to make a decision.
Wang Hengyue will definitely go to Guangxi, this is inevitable.
Of course, the Model Camp can continue to serve Lu Rongting, but the result may be that their former colleagues raise their guns against them.
Wang Hengyue doesn’t care if he has one more model camp or one less model camp!
Lou will pay the heaviest price if he continues to protect Lu Rongting!
"My father taught me to be loyal and to be loyal to my superiors." Bai Chongxi stood up: "But now, it's useless no matter how loyal we are. The brothers outside will get the news soon, and they will no longer
Continue to obey the commander, the mutiny is about to happen! When the time comes, the consequences will be disastrous." After saying that, he walked to the box, symbolically picked up a piece of ocean, and put it in his pocket: "Please help me thank Wang Xun.
Envoy, I have received my military pay."
Tong Yanwen also stood up and picked up three oceans!
"Batalion Commander, don't hesitate any longer."
Ma Xiaojun sighed and waved his hand: "Give these oceans to the brothers and tell the land patrol envoy that I, Ma Xiaojun, am sorry for his years of cultivation."
Zhu Zhengtao had a smile on his face.
I finally lived up to the king's inspection envoy's instructions...
The 2nd Battalion of the 10th Regiment of the 5th Brigade of the Guangxi Army.
Li Zongren picked up a piece of ocean, put it to his mouth and blew it in a self-deprecating tone. He put it to his ear and listened, and then laughed in a self-deprecating way: "Wang Hengyue is really willing to spend money, he has paid all the military salary!" "Batalion Commander,
The brothers have all gathered."
"Take out all the wages that Wang Hengyue, no, the patrol envoy Wang gave to the brothers, and tell them that they were paid to them by Wang Hengyue, the envoy from the southwest patrol." Li Zongren threw Dayang back into the box: "From now on,
We are no longer the Gui Army. We have to be called the Dingguo Army. By the way, what about the neighboring troops?" "The neighboring Tao Camp and Zhang Camp have also received military pay from Wang Hengyue. The troops have been gathered. It seems that there are
I think there are signs of movement in my department."
Li Zongren smiled and said: "Go and tell them that I, Li Zongren, have also accepted military pay and asked them not to set up an attack. We were colleagues in the past and we are still colleagues now."
"Yes. Battalion Commander, do you want to launch an attack on Nanning? This will also make Wang's patrol take us more seriously."
"No, I, Li Zongren, would never do such a thing..." Li Zongren's answer was categorical: "I had no choice but to switch to Wang Hengyue, but if I were asked to attack my old commander, I would never do this."
People hate things, and whoever wants to take such credit should let them take it!" "Yes!"
Li Zongren sat down and took a look at the military uniform he was wearing. The military uniform was still the same, but the surname of this military uniform would no longer be Lu, but Wang.
The entire Guangxi will soon change their surname to Wang!!.
