!--The beginning of the chapter-- If you work hard, you must pay for it! There is no reason to die in vain in a war, especially in the wars of the late Qing Dynasty. When the commander gave an order to charge, he had to prepare cash for the reward. What kind of military mission is worth how much is in the minds of the soldiers. There is a price tag.
During non-war periods, when soldiers go on missions, such as sending a military report urgently within 600 miles, this is a chore and the commander must record the reward. That is to say, he does not need to give cash, but it must be recorded in the account book and settled together at the end of the month.
You should be rewarded for going out on patrol in the ice and snow, you should be rewarded for conveying military information day and night, you should be rewarded for going over the mountains to inquire about military information, and even during peacetime when the superior officer is inspecting, and the brothers stand in line and fight for half a day, they should be rewarded.
Similar to recording rewards is the reward money during the war. This must be paid in cash and cannot be used for credit. To advance the battle ahead, it would take two hundred people to charge once, and each person would cost one hundred yuan! I found silver on the spot, so I had to work hard with the money in my arms.
The enemy is outnumbered and we are trapped in the city. If we want our brothers to hold on for one more day, we have to reward them with silver. If I can't remember the reward, I have to get cash.
Looking at the military system of the late Qing Dynasty, silver rewards in addition to military pay have formed a very strict system of rules that no general can violate, because the army at that time was an army without ideas, and they did not have an ideal to throw their heads behind. Spread blood, all soldiers fight just for money and food.
In a bloody battle like today, the enemy had already reached outside the general's mansion. We couldn't be stingy at this life-or-death moment. When the first housekeeper ordered his servants to carry more than ten large wooden boxes, the second housekeeper cried.
"My eldest brother, you are here! Why are you so late? Look at this man's death..." The second housekeeper pricked his hands, which were covered with blood. Then he looked at a piece of blood lying on the ground inside the gate.
The dead ones were piled directly in the corner, and the still angry ones were spread out on the floor. The screams were endless, coupled with the continuous sound of gunshots on the wall, making the faces of those who had never experienced the battlefield turn pale.
"Don't ask, you don't know the old man's temper. It would be great if you can ask for money! Open the box..."
Silver boxes were pried open, and the ingots and silver coins inside were piled like a mountain. "Brothers! The general treats us well! Without the general, how can we go to that popular and spicy place? Fight with them..."
"I brought out the silver for everyone. We successfully defended the general's palace. Each of the living people was eight hundred li, and each of the dead was a thousand taels! I swear to the emperor's thick soil that I will never owe a penny!"
As soon as they heard about the huge reward of one thousand taels, all the guards present were excited. During the late Qing Dynasty, although the world's silver seawater poured into the Qing Dynasty, the price of silver had fallen sharply, but after all, it was the purchasing power of physical metal currency. .
In the city of Qiqihar, two to three hundred taels of silver is enough to buy a courtyard house, and six to seven hundred taels of silver can buy a storefront. Isn't this a three-lifetime property?
"Fight! Fight with them... defend the general's mansion! Kill..."
"Two stewards! We are not afraid. The most important thing is to contact Jin Zuoling. Without his order, the cavalry outside the city will not be able to enter the city. We must have reinforcements!"
The big butler slapped his thigh for the last time and said, "Fight! I'll go and ask for it myself. A few brothers will protect me. Let's ride the general's good horse out of the city to ask for reinforcements!"
Are you going to invite them? In fact, in the Beicheng alley, four soldiers are protecting Guo Xing'a as he flees to Beicheng. Guo Xing'a is wearing a cloak for fear that others will recognize who he is.
The tired soldier gasped and asked, "Sir... sir! Where are you going? You must have a goal..."
Guo Xing'a also fainted from exhaustion. He drank too much wine and smoked too many cigarettes today, plus so many drugs to enhance his mood, and his whole brain was buzzing.
"Yes...that's right! Where should I go?"
"Oh, my lord! You've been working together for a long time and you don't even know where to run? What's going on!"
"Yes, yes... let's go out of the city first! Go out of the city to gather the troops and then fight back... Yes, this is called transfer, strategic transfer. Don't talk about whether you can run away or not. I don't like to hear it!"
The four guards secretly sighed, why did they end up with such a waste!
In fact, Guoxing'a is not like this on weekdays. If the waste reaches this level, Tepuxin will not be reused if he is beaten to death. But the human brain is afraid of the four words alcohol, poison, medicine and sex. Today Guoxing'a is four All the characters have been taken up. If you are not confused, then you have ghosts.
The five people went straight to the North Gate. Just when they saw the opening of the North Gate, there was a sudden roar from the mountains outside the city, and then a huge crowd of people poured in, all of them were garrison troops outside the city.
"Get water! Everyone, grab water..." The soldiers screamed and rushed towards the city.
"What the hell!" Guo Xing'a yelled and subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away, but as soon as he turned around, his mind came to his senses. "Damn, aren't these my soldiers? Why did they come from the Beida camp..."
"A bunch of bastards! Who asked you to enter the city... Huh? Grab water! Damn, these bastards..." Just as he was about to curse, he suddenly thought, "Yeah, didn't I look for soldiers? This won't protect me. Don’t we already have soldiers? God is really helping me!”
Guo Xing'a pulled off his cloak, stood on the street and raised his arms and shouted, "I am Guo Xing'a! Everyone, stop here and line up on the spot!"
When the leading soldier saw his immediate superior coming, he cursed in his heart that this was bad luck. He was really unwilling to let such an easy opportunity to make a fortune slip away in vain.
At this time, the whole city was in chaos. The number of smoke pillars from the fire suddenly increased from eight or nine to more than twenty. There were shouts everywhere in the city, and there were countless people running for their lives on the streets.
Such a chaotic situation is a great opportunity to make a fortune. The soldiers who stopped looked at each other and understood what the other meant.
Immediately afterwards, the dozens of soldiers who greeted Guo Xing'a rushed forward to greet them. They asked for greetings, and people were all talking without knowing what they were saying.
The moment the officer's line of sight was blocked, the soldiers behind him pretended not to be able to see them. They split into groups on the left and right and ran away through the alley, each one as fast as a rabbit.
"Hey, hey... where are my soldiers? You bastards, where are my soldiers!"
"There are us, we are here! Aren't we your soldiers, sir?"
"Fart! I really shame you, you dare to fool me! Blow the trumpet to gather troops, my day..."
"Sir! It's so easy for brothers to have such an opportunity to make a fortune. Just raise your hands! Of all the gains from grabbing water, I'm sure you, my lord, will get the biggest win..."
"Hmm! That's pretty much it...huh? Fart! Why do you want to get rich after all? The general's mansion is about to be breached. If something goes wrong with the general's family, we will all lose our heads then!"
Guo Xing'a gritted his teeth and cursed, "It's not a scam at all! It's a mutiny. Hunchun of Ning Guta rebelled!"
