Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

Yang Wanjun, the garrison commander of Zhongdu, was also shocked by the continuous miraculous methods performed by the God of Du'e.

After the person disappeared, he came to his senses and became furious.

Outrageous!

Yang Wanjun was born into a noble family and had been pampered since childhood. He had never suffered such a great humiliation!

This evil demon Du'e not only slapped him in public, but also deliberately used the money and meat to shake the morale of the troops. How could he let her succeed!

He endured the severe pain in his mouth and shouted angrily:

"Silence! Everyone, go to the kitchen to eat immediately. Violators will be punished by military law!"

"When will the money and meat given to us by the God be distributed?"

Someone below couldn't wait to ask.

Tong Anliang also said loudly:

"Yes, the God said that the money is for us to buy cotton-padded jackets! If it is distributed earlier, we can buy cotton-padded jackets and suffer less from the cold!"

Others also urged that the money and meat be distributed quickly, and the parade ground with tens of thousands of people was in chaos.

Yang Wanjun was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

These lowly military households are so short-sighted and stupid!

Despite such an obvious trap, they were only interested in the small profits given by the enemy.

He asked someone to call the Shenjiying.

He simply pulled up his musket and fired several shots into the air.

The huge noise and the threat of muskets finally quieted down the soldiers present.

Yang Wanjun shouted loudly:

"The imperial court has long announced to the whole country that the so-called Du'e God is an evil demon who abducted the eldest prince and many children and dug out their hearts to make elixirs. Now he has even established his own regime in Nandu and has become a traitor!"

"The money and meat she gave must have been poisoned, so that we can take over Zhongdu without any effort! We must not be fooled!"

This statement successfully stopped everyone present from making a fuss.

Everyone was of course afraid of the evil demon that dug out hearts to make elixirs and of poisoning, so they all stopped and went to eat.

However, even though there was so much meat and money, I couldn't get them. The rare Laba porridge with meat in front of me also became tasteless.

Without money to buy cotton-padded jackets, the biting cold continued to torment many soldiers.

But in just one night, the soldiers' minds were frozen clear.

In the morning, the generals were reluctant to get up early for training, and most of the soldiers stayed in the barracks doing nothing.

And because they would have no food if they didn't train, they could only lie in bed as much as possible and reduce activity so that they wouldn't be so hungry.

In the barracks where Tong Anliang was, someone began to whisper:

"I feel like something is wrong. Even if the money was really poisoned, couldn't they wash it with water before giving it to us?"

After hearing this, Tong Anliang suddenly understood.

"Yeah, it's okay if it's just bacon, but the money is made of copper. How could they have poison in it? It will be gone after just washing it with water!"

And the veteran who had seen a lot of wars said:

"Actually... if we really want to poison someone, wouldn't it be more economical and labor-saving to put the poison in the water, given that God Venerable's ability to come and go without a trace?"

Poisoning water sources is also a common tactic in battles between two armies.

The difficulty is that the water source will be heavily guarded and it is impossible to get close to it.

Seeing the secrets that Lord Du'e showed yesterday and his ability to appear and disappear at will, it is not difficult for him to poison the water silently.

So why go to so much trouble and give them so much money and meat to accomplish this?

"So, they are just trying to get the money and meat for themselves, so they are deliberately throwing dirty water on the God!"

Tong Anliang immediately came to the conclusion and looked angry.

This statement was immediately agreed by the rest of the comrades in the barracks.

One hundred thousand strings of cash! Even the high and mighty masters left behind would be tempted by the gift.

After all, one thousand taels can buy a centurion.

To get a hundred thousand strings of cash, the governor would have to sell a hundred officials. How could he not be greedy?

Everyone was indignant.

unacceptable!

In the past, they would deduct the military pay given to them by the imperial court under various pretexts.

Now, the God announced in front of tens of thousands of people that he would give them something, and those corrupt officials dared to embezzle it openly!

But they are just a group of soldiers, what can they do to the high and mighty adults who stay behind?

No matter how angry you are, you have to endure it.

"Alas, if the God knew that the Lord stayed behind didn't give us money, he would come back and punish him!"

Some people are looking forward to it.

These words resonated with everyone.

No one dared to take the lead and force the adults left behind to share the money with everyone.

But it’s different for the God. He slapped the lord who stayed behind in public, and nothing happened to him either.

"That would require the Goddess to know about this and be willing to help us. She also said that we are not soldiers under her command. She can only give us this little bit, and nothing else is beyond her control."

Speaking of the rule of the God, the old soldier Tong Anliang remembered what the God said yesterday.

"I don't know if I heard it wrong, but the Goddess said at the time that the military household system was abolished under her rule, and that at the age of 35, one could take home 30 taels of retirement silver and live with his family, with each person getting three mu of land."

"You heard it right, that's exactly what he said!"

"If we follow the rules under the rule of God, then Brother Liang can retire and go home!"

Others also thought of this and became excited.

At the age of 35, one can get rid of his military household status, get a large sum of money to settle down, and also get a share of land.

This is a good life that many military households dare not even dream of.

They couldn't believe that life was so good under the rule of the traitor Lord Du'e.

They could only forget the things that the Lord Du'e gave them as a dream.

Yang Wanjun, the garrison commander of Zhongdu, waited until all the ordinary soldiers had dispersed before ordering his personal soldiers to move all the meat and money into the warehouse.

He went to the general's tent in the military camp and asked the military doctor to come and treat his injuries.

After applying the ice for half an hour, he was about to return to the garrison when a captain of the personal soldiers came running over with a grim look on his face and reported:

"Master, that money... that money is only 70,000 strings of cash!"

The Zhongdu Garrison Camp is a real army of 100,000. Even though there were some casualties when they went to suppress the Qi and Lu rebellions, there are still more than 90,000 people now.

Seventy thousand strings of cash... If he wanted to give each soldier one string of cash, he would have to pay another twenty or thirty thousand strings of cash!

"Damn it! The great Lord Du'e actually resorted to such shady tactics!"

Yang Wanjun was so angry that he threw the ice pack on the ground.

"Sir, what should we do next? Should we clarify this matter with the soldiers?"

Qianhu asked for instructions.

Yang Wanjun frowned and thought for a moment, then cursed:

"Clarify? You, with your pig brain, actually think they will believe it if I clarify it?"

"What's more, I have finally put this matter to rest. If you bring it up again, they will start to demand a share of the money and meat again!"

As he said this, he sneered:

"That evil demon Du'e wants to use these small profits to buy people's hearts, but I will not let her succeed! No matter how much money she gives, it will be a waste of effort!"

Even if there is not 100,000 strings of cash, 70,000 strings of cash is still a lot of money.

Even though he came from a noble family, he would not have the opportunity to earn such a large sum of money at one time.

What's more, he made the money legitimately and no one would criticize him.

The legendary God Du'e, who is extremely wise and has great powers, is no more than this!

If she was really that powerful and without any constraints, she would not only slap him in the face today, but would have taken his head directly.

The so-called strategy, when faced with a tough guy like him, is nothing more than giving him money for free.

Of course, he did not keep all of the 70,000 strings of cash for himself. He took out 10,000 strings of cash and distributed them to his personal soldiers and generals.

After receiving this order, a smile appeared on the face of the captain of the imperial guards.

He asked again:

"Sir, those 50,000 kilograms of meat are edible after all, and cannot be kept for a long time. We still need to find a way to dispose of them as soon as possible."

Yang Wanjun understood what he meant.

If the food given by the enemy is really poisonous and the soldiers eat it, the enemy will be able to destroy the Zhongdu camp without any effort.

It would be a pity to throw it away.

Yang Wanjun recalled that every year before the Chinese New Year, the army had to pay twice the usual price to buy meat.

"Take this meat to Fengyang City and sell it. Not only can we make some extra money, but if the meat is really poisonous, it will also allow the people of Fengyang to see the true face of the evil demon Du'e!"

"Your Excellency really has a brilliant idea!"

The captain flattered him and then led his personal soldiers to handle the matter.

They never expected that all their choices were within Chen Qingzhu's calculations.
