Chapter 312 Butcher's Knife (2)(1/2)
Why does Wang Ju have the standard of three pounds of meat per month?
In fact, this is the standard of the treatment of the Poche Army in the past.&{}..{}If you can really eat three kilograms of meat in a month, that's fine. The key is to be greedy and soldiers can eat what they have in their mouths. I'm afraid there is not a kilogram of meat. So Wang Ju went to Huachi County and immediately provided food subsidies. If you don't eat meat, can your body grow well? Can you have the strength to pull the bow and take the arrow?
There were many machine guns in the Song Dynasty, such as Yao Yi. Later, when he was in Liyuan Fort, he kept shooting the Xixia people who attacked the fort. He alone shot hundreds of Xixia soldiers and kept drawing bows and firing arrows, causing bleeding from their fingers!
But Yao Yi is not as powerful as Liu Shunchen.
After the defeat of Xia, tens of thousands of enemy troops were pursuing the palace, and seven of them went first. Liu Shunchen said that this must be the enemy who is particularly cunning, that is, the enemy who can fight the most. Therefore, if you don’t kill them first, your army will be exhausted. Then declare that I will order the first one to arrange flowers between the eyebrows. Three arrows made the three generals bloom between the eyebrows, and the remaining four people would run away. It is very similar, right, it is very similar to Xue Rengui’s three arrows to determine the Tianshan Mountain. However, his troops were too small, and ten thousand enemy troops came again. So Liu Shunchen went from Shen to You, which is from 3:00 pm, and from 5:00 pm, it may be longer, but it will not exceed three hours. One thousand arrows were shot. The fingers were split and blood flowed to the elbow. The sky gradually darkened, and the Xixia generals seized the morale and dared not talk about the battle again.
Wang Ju shot ten arrows in one breath, and the soldiers were impressed.
Wang Ju's is not a machine gun, Yao Yi is only a medium-sized machine gun, and Liu Shunchen's is a super machine gun.
All of these require strong arm strength and physical strength.
Of course, that battle was over long ago.
But now these soldiers have come, and Wang Ju has no subsidy. So he called instructors from each battalion to give a speech. First of all, you are not the imperial guards, they are all people in Shaanxi. Moreover, you can all be divided into a high-quality place in the future, and you will be divided into more places. The descendants may be neighbors, so you can no longer be greedy. Secondly, the completion will be completed earlier, and you and your family will benefit sooner. If a dispute arises, the official will never give up the greed. And you all will be the one who suffers. Then repeatedly order not to deduct greed.
And Wang Ju often takes time to patrol.
It should be done better for the time being.
The main thing is that they have the potential, either from wealthy families, they don’t care, but they won’t be too hot for too much money. If they check loosely, they dare to be greedy. If they check tightly, there is no need to be greedy.
Therefore, the soldiers were a group, and then the group of prisoners of war and the people. They also formed a battalion of 500 people in the military camp, and then several people were assigned to cook. Then everyone chose a team leader, and the team leader conveyed the orders. They managed everyone, and at the same time, some clerks and yamen runners patrolled and cooperated with supervision.
But the problem arises.
Meat!
Three pounds of meat are distributed six times a month, half a pound per person. But it is impossible to stew it and then give it to everyone with a rating. Just estimate it by cutting a pound of meat into six pieces, stewing it in a large pot, three pieces per person.
Don’t underestimate these three pieces of meat. One kilogram is close to six hundred grams, and one piece of meat is close to two taels.
That's the real big piece of meat.
In order not to make any mistakes, the meat distributed to the soldiers and civilians of each battalion was 20 to 30 kilograms. It was not cut so standard, but a piece of meat should be at least 170 grams or more.
But now the meat that several people see is almost half shrinking.
It’s not that it’s not cut out properly, but that all the meat is so small.
Wang Ju said: "Immediately ride a horse to the battalions, stop construction, stop supplying food, and check the meat. By the way, I will send someone to call five kilograms of meat, cut it into thirty pieces, stew it quickly, and use these thirty pieces of meat to compare its size."
There were still two meals a day on the construction site, which was supper. It was almost dusk anyway, so everyone asked to rest in advance. The yamen runners immediately blocked the kitchens of each battalion. Wang Ju even allocated the 5th battalion Poche Army nearby to cooperate with the yamen runners.
This is also thanks to Wang Ju himself. Because of the Battle of Dashun City, Cai Ting did not dare to take all the horses, but he insisted that he could not be kept in the Muslim prison. The one that could not be raised must be handed over to various cavalry battalions, and at the same time, he also equipped the various Poche troops with some war horses.
Regarding this horse, the story that Wang Ju wrote about in the imperial examination was also in the Secretariat. It makes sense. Although Han Qi did not transfer the horse from the Masjid to the military camp, he also adopted Cai Ting's suggestion.
Including the construction of various battalions of Poche, there are also some war horses.
Therefore, with the cooperation of the Poche Army's cavalry, almost all the battalions on Xiao Zhengquan were blocked together and a thorough investigation began.
The sky gradually became dusk, and the results of the investigation were reported.
A total of 21st battalions had problems of varying weight, among which the eighth battalions had a particularly serious problem, and some of them had a weight of more than two-thirds.
"Look again, who has deducted it? If there is no problem, you can have a meal and rest. If there is a problem, please explain it to the villagers."
This is not a Gao Ming corruption case, the result was found quickly.
A total of seven clerks responsible for supply, nine team leaders and sixteen cooks participated in the deduction.
"Catch them together and let the villagers have dinner."
After a while, soldiers rode horses and captured thirty-two people.
Wang Ju looked at the thirty-two people coldly and said, "Do you borers know where the money comes from? It is the inner treasury allocated by the emperor! In order to save this little money, the emperor was reluctant to eat meat and wear silk clothes. The dragon clothes were covered with linen clothes. You dare to be greedy for this money. If you come, you will beat them first, and each person will be slapped fifty times before interrogating them."
After being beaten to pieces, Wang Ju retried and quickly found the result.
No one dared to stretch out his hand on Wang Ju's side. The battle in Dashun City also made these people a little scared. In addition, when Wang Ju was fine, he rode a horse and ran around to see them. These people were also afraid of being discovered. However, Yang Pan was a real civil servant, and now everything on the construction site is two, divided into two parts. It has been more than ten days of construction, but Wang Ju has not come to see it once.
Several clerks who were responsible for the sacrifice became bolder and colluded with more than a dozen team leaders. Only then did they deduct less at one time, but no one noticed that, and even the people did not discuss it, the courage became stronger and this time they defeated more.
However, it was not too much, but they deducted it from above. The team leaders below also became more courageous. They learned from bad guys and followed the bad guys to deduct it again. Even when the yamen runners and soldiers were checking, there was still a lot of raw meat behind the kitchen that was not handled in time.
Not only meat, but also a little food and other materials.
In other words, there are more than thirty-two people involved, but there are actually as many as fifty-nine.
Yang Pan's face turned dark immediately, and there was no problem with Wang Ju. But there was a problem with him. It turned out that good people were easy to bully.
"Catch them all," Wang Ju shouted again.
The yamen runners lit a torch.
After a while, the remaining twenty-seven people were brought here.
Wang Ju continued to interrogate.
He quickly received a thick pile of confessions and was immediately sentenced. Thirty-five people who committed relatively light crimes beat 100 sticks and executed them on the spot.
The remaining twenty-four people saw that something was wrong, so they knelt down and shouted for forgiveness.
"Scream again, slap your mouth."
A clerk continued to shout without hearing it clearly. Wang Junu said, and Ye Long Meesheng walked over and was shaved two big ears. He almost knocked off the man's teeth.
This was even worse. The twenty-four people stood there and Li Li was trembling. The courageous ones started to wet their pants.
After the battle, Wang Ju said, "Send someone to carry them home immediately, but the record is in the book. In the future, the canal workers will not bother them. But after the canal workers have repaired it, they are not allowed to use a drop of white canal water. If there is a field next to the canal, transfer the fields and acres immediately to a high place, and they will die for themselves."
Yang Pan said: "Is this too cruel?"
Wang Ju lowered his voice and said, "Yang Gou, really, what can they not even use the water in the canal? After the completion of Zheng Baiqu, how many families can do these civilians who can really not use the water in Zheng Baiqu?"
Although there are many civilians, they are all people in the range of Zheng Baiqu. They do not benefit. They will be free labor for such a long time. Who is convinced?
"That……"
"Scare, although we will make some compensation to the people serving in the future, the river canal has not been repaired now, and the moon in the mirror and flowers in the water are still there. What the people see is not fertile fields, but the hard work at the moment. Now these people are greedy and beat them up a hundred times, then expel them back, even saving labor, what will everyone think? Of course, if they are recorded in the book, they will not be given a piece of land in the future."
"So that's the case." Yang Pan thought and agreed, otherwise he would not let them not touch a drop of canal water, which would have forced people to die.
Wang Ju ordered the Poche sergeant to carry these people down.
Because of the Battle of Dashun City, Wang Ju was very friendly among these Poche troops, and more than 90% of the soldiers admired Wang Ju very much. This is Wang Ju's advantage, and this construction site can almost be regarded as Wang Ju's home court.
Wang Ju continued to look at the remaining twenty-four people. These people were stretched out very long. Wang Ju once again sentenced to the sentence of a total of eighteen people, Liupeng, the prison city of Qingzhou, and the prison city of 500 miles.
The eighteen people were stunned and continued to beg for mercy. Wang Ju shouted: "Drag on, immediately call me a clever word, imprison you, and send it away tomorrow."
Also, the six clerks were all desolate at this time, and they were the most greedy.
Yang Pan sighed and thought to himself, "It's not easy to endure that Shaman Island." I thought Wang Ju wanted to match the six people with Shaman Island. Who knew that Wang Ju suddenly shouted: "Pull it out and cut all your heads to the public."
"Prince An, it's not right. Even if you abandon the market, you will have to be executed after autumn."
"Yang Gou, there are 50,000 laborers, more than 20,000 soldiers, and 5,000 Xixia prisoners of war. It seems to be a construction site, but it is actually a battlefield. A large gunpowder pack will explode and a major event will occur. Therefore, managing rivers is like managing the army. It cannot be handled according to the ordinary law. It should be followed by the Military Law Department. I will write a memorial to hand it to Your Majesty and explain the whole story. The person who comes to them cut them down."
It really cut, not only did it cut, but also hung six heads on the flagpole.
"Love the people, love the ghost people, butcher," Mr. Li said with a heartache as he looked at several other gentry.
Although they donated some food, they are actually not worth much money. Just like Mr. Li’s 100 stones of millet, if they are usually only seventy cents, it is not enough to have a slightly extravagant banquet.
The donation of grain is fake, and the test of Wang Ju's wind is real.
But what answer should Wang Ju? I will give everyone an explanation, give all the people, and give the court an explanation. This is a reply from God? With so many places, if you give them the explanation, you cannot give the people. If you give them the explanation, you cannot give the court an explanation. Can you explain it together?
So these gentry were thinking about countermeasures all day long.
Then the news came. Six bloody heads shocked them together.
"Mr. Li. Don't be afraid. Several officials loved the people, so they often abandoned the prisoners. They had to be allowed by the court, and even the officials had seen them before they could pass. Why should the beheading besieged in the autumn? The king has four policies, celebrations, rewards, punishments, and punishments, which correspond to spring, summer, autumn and winter. The earth begins to be overthrow in autumn. This is the time for the time when the hundred punishments are strictly imposed to show the punishment of the heavens. In addition, the time for the beheading in the autumn is to complain to the people to prevent unjust cases and wrong cases. Therefore, our court's law clearly stipulates that from the beginning of spring to the autumn equinox, except for committing evil rebellions and above, and slaves and servants killing their masters, other crimes cannot be punished in the spring. Are those clerks considered evil servants? Isn't it a private crime? How many small money are you greedy for evil rebellions?"
"Yes. Let their family go to the capital to file a lawsuit."
A dozen people immediately became happy and became more and more excited as they spoke.
When they were almost talking, the diner sitting next to him suddenly whistled.
The gentry didn't pay attention, and was about to stand up and leave the restaurant, the diner said, "Don't worry, my son, please invite you."
"You are, you are Quan Erzheng..." a squire recognized it.
"That second-rank?" asked the person next to him.
There is no need for the gentry to answer. Teams of Poche soldiers dressed in civilians broke in, dragged all the dozen people down, and pulled them to the Jingyang County Government. Wang Ju sat in the court, asked the matter clearly, and said viciously: "For the people of Guanzhong to live a better life, the government has reduced their food and rebuilt Zheng Baiqu. As gentry everywhere, you have benefited the most. Now you do not cooperate with the government's actions, but instead bewitched people and incite trouble. You are really brave. Everyone will beat them one hundred sticks. And remember that this is the first offense. The next time you commit another offense, those six heads will be your end!"
But these people are all well-known people, and the yamen runners dare not beat them up.
Wang Ju said again: "The second eldest son, call Qiu Dutou and others in, and they will be sentenced to the punishment and beat him again. The attack just now is not counted, and there is still that person who dares to talk back and slap back ten times."
Qiu Du led a hundred subordinates, who were the Poche Army from Qianzhou and had no relationship with Jingyang, so he beat him hard, and as a result, more than a dozen people could not even stand and were carried out again.
Hou Ke then turned out from behind the Yatang and said, "Prince Zi'an, how do you ask me to manage Jingyang in the future?"
"Minister Hou, Zheng Baiqucheng, can you still stay in Jingyang?"
With this achievement, I was promoted.
To be continued...
