Chapter Twenty-Four

After Yu Xiaotian was promoted to the deputy general of Fujian by the current emperor's decree, Yu Xiaotian could almost walk sideways in Fujian. Apart from those civil servants, only Xie Longyi could beat him. But Xie Longyi

nor has the right to control

Xiaotian and Yu Xiaotian have actually formed their own army. Basically, he has the final say. Only Xiong Wencan can effectively control them. Even Cai Shanji, the current deputy envoy of Haidao, wants to mobilize Yu Xiaotian.

You have to ask Xiong Wencan what he means first.

In addition, the imperial court also gave praise to some of Yu Xiaotian's subordinates who participated in this battle. Li Dazui, as Yu Xiaotian's deputy on this expedition, was promoted from the post of General Qian to the commander of the Fuzhou Zhendong Guard. However,

He alone leads the town army of three thousand, and also leads the Meihua Guarding Thousand Households Station and the Wan'an Guarding Thousand Households Station. Other generals also received promotions or rewards.

Even Mr. Zhang Qian benefited from this. He was rewarded with a salary for half a year and was controlled by Xiaotian. He became Yu Xiaotian's subordinate.

After Yu Xiaotian received this imperial edict, he was beaming with joy. This time the battle to annihilate Blackbeard could be said to have brought him both fame and fortune. In addition to making a fortune, he was also promoted to deputy general and became the Fujian general.

One of the most important military generals, he also thoroughly tested the mountain combat capabilities of his infantry.

What's more important is that his promotion this time allows him to legitimately control more territory in Fujian and control more troops at hand. This will be extremely beneficial for him to accumulate strength in the future.

Although he was nominally responsible for the military affairs of Quanzhou and Zhangzhou, coupled with his control of the navy, the entire sea area along the coast of Fujian was officially under his name. In addition, Li Dazui transferred the town to Dongwei as the commander.

I also know that Zhang Meihua Guards Qianhu Station and Wan'an Guards Qianhu Station happen to control the mouth of the Minjiang River and the southern end of the Haitan Strait. This is completely equivalent to controlling Haitan Island in the palm of his hand.

middle.

Coupled with the promotion of several other subordinates, his hand has even reached to Yanping Mansion. If Yu Xiaotian sneezes from now on, many people in Fujian will probably catch a cold.

Xiong Wencan was also very satisfied with the imperial court's reward arrangement this time. Although the reward for Xiaotian was a bit beyond his expectation, after all, Yu Xiaotian was his, at least in his own opinion, the number of control troops was larger.

In the future, when he works in Fujian, he will be less influenced by those incompetent generals who drink the blood of soldiers. As long as Yu Xiaotian can train an army division that can dominate the mainland invincibly, then there will be no need to worry about the rebellion in Fujian.

.

But the only thing he is a little worried about is that if Yu Xiaotian is promoted too quickly, there may be a certain risk of losing his position. However, as long as he can grasp it well, Yu Xiaotian must know that without him, Xiong Wencan, Yu Xiaotian will not be able to do anything in Fujian.

It's such a mess. It can be said that the interests of the two people are now tied together. It may be difficult for either one to leave.

Therefore, Xiong Wencan and Yu Xiaotian were both happy with the imperial court's reward distribution this time. The most unhappy ones were probably Zhang Jiace and his former subordinates.

Although Zhang Jiace saved his life, he was beaten to the end and was directly demoted to his home for retirement. This was undoubtedly a thunderous blow for someone like him who wanted to make a fortune by eating empty pay and drinking the blood of soldiers.

It completely weakened him and left him with tea. If he wants to continue to be as prosperous as before, I'm afraid he won't have a chance.

Zhang Jiace secretly hates Yu Xiaotian. Although he can't blame Xiaotian for being dismissed and reprimanded this time. It was his failure to fight a good battle that led to him being arrested and questioned by Xiong Wencan. But on the other hand, if it wasn't for Yu Xiaotian this time,

If Tian had done things too well, as an important general in Fujian, the imperial court would definitely still rely on him, and would not have him kicked out and demoted to serve the people.

So to a certain extent, Yu Xiaotian stepped on him so hard that now he didn't even have a chance to stand up.

After hearing the news that Zhang Jiace had been demoted from his post and rushed home, many of Zhang Jiace's former subordinates went to Zhang Jiace to discuss how to deal with Xiaotian, because they used to be Zhang Jiace's subordinates.

These subordinates are not the same as Yu Xiaotian at all. From now on, they will be under Xiaotian's subordinates, and they will definitely not be happy.

Therefore, these people are all uneasy about the future. Therefore, although Zhang Jiace has been demoted, they still come to ask for advice on countermeasures.

Zhang Jiace was sitting at home, feeling depressed to death. Although these old subordinates did not immediately recognize him as their old boss because he was demoted, he also knew very well that it would not take long for his influence to completely dissipate.

I'm sure not many of these bastards will look at him seriously anymore.

Listening to the complaints of these old subordinates, Zhang Jiace secretly felt resentment in his heart. He slowly tapped the table with his fingers, his face was cold. After a long time, he said coldly: "You guys, since I am no longer the deputy general, why bother?"

Are you coming to me to ask for advice? You should hurry up and meet your new boss now. Otherwise, how will you benefit in the future?

Since you said so, I might as well remind you that Fujian has been fighting for years and has insufficient financial resources. Many brothers may have been in arrears with pay for a long time! Since being a soldier requires pay and food, no one can say anything about this.

Bar!"

When Zhang Jiace's former subordinates heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, military pay! This method is really good! So everyone immediately nodded in understanding, stood up and left, each rushed back to their respective places, and began to tinker in secret.

When Yu Xiaotian took office as a new official, he naturally wanted to meet these new subordinates, so he sent a message to these former Zhang Jiace's generals to meet him at the official government office he had temporarily set up in Gaopu City.

A few days later, more than a dozen guards from various places and generals from the town army rushed to Gaopusuo City, handed over invitations to pay their respects, and were summoned by Yu Xiaotian into the lobby of the government office.

When Yu Xiaotian learned the news of the arrival of these people, he realized that something seemed a little wrong, because since he would be the immediate boss of these people in the future, under normal circumstances, this group of people would inevitably give him some gifts to honor him.

of.

He doesn't care about how many gifts or money these people give him, because what he needs most right now is money. He doesn't care about how many gifts these people give him, but this is a kind of etiquette. But after these people arrived today, in addition to greetings,

, but didn’t even send a gift, so what does this mean?

So after Yu Xiaotian thought for a moment, he sneered and ordered people to recruit these guys into the lobby.

After this group of people entered the lobby, they were quite respectful to Xiaotian and saluted him one after another. There was nothing wrong with their attitude.

Yu Xiaotian also met everyone one by one with a smile on his face, without showing any arrogance. He also asked people to sit down and chatted casually with the group of people. By the way, he asked some questions about the officers and soldiers under their jurisdiction.

Condition.

And when he asked, he got into trouble. This group of guys must have made an appointment in advance, and each one of them complained repeatedly that their brothers had not received military pay for several months.

Among them, the most noisy ones were the several thousand commanders and commanders of the Zhenhai Guard where Zhang Jiace started his career, as well as the commanders and officials.

These people were Zhang Jiace's former confidants. Zhang Jiace first started his career with the Zhenhai Guards and once served as the commander of the Zhenhai Guards. Therefore, the generals of the Zhenhai Guards were most resistant to obeying orders under Yu Xiaotian this time. Of course,

When Zhang Jiace gave them the idea to make trouble for Yu Xiaotian by raising wages, these people naturally jumped to the forefront.

Yu Xiaotian didn't worry and let them quarrel in the lobby for a long time. His personal guards and generals were so angry that they wanted to rush up and beat these guys up.

Yu Xiaotian, on the other hand, looked like an old god, smoking his newly made briar pipe, and from time to time he would give these guys some cigarettes to try out the taste.

Listening to these guys arguing about the unpaid wages, Yu Xiaotian nodded his head in agreement, seeming to sympathize with them. When they were almost noisy, Yu Xiaotian nodded and said: "This is indeed a trouble! Get it as a soldier.

Paying and eating food is a matter of course, how can we let the brothers work without eating? Anyway, I will definitely report this matter to the governor, and I will find a way to get some military pay from you to meet the emergency!"

When these guys saw that Yu Xiaotian had a very good attitude and were not annoyed by it, they didn't have the nerve to continue making trouble. After all, this matter was none of Yu Xiaotian's business. Yu Xiaotian had just taken over their place, but he owed

Even Yu Xiaotian can't do anything about the salary matter.

This time everyone also understood that they just wanted to put pressure on Yu Xiaotian through this incident and prevent Yu Xiaotian from being too proud, so this was the reason why this happened.

In the evening, Yu Xiaotian held a special banquet in Gaopusuo City and entertained these guys. He personally accompanied them and had a drink with them.

Several of them saw that Yu Xiaotian was so approachable and did not use his official position to pressure them. They had a good impression of Xiaotian, so they naturally got closer to each other during the dinner.

Xiaotian was respectful, but during the dinner, there was a arrears payment, and there was another arrears payment. It seemed that if these arrears were not taken out and replenished immediately, things would get into trouble soon.

Yu Xiaotian asked these people to go home the next day. Before leaving, he told them to take good care of their subordinates and not to cause too much trouble, otherwise everyone would look bad.

After watching these people leave, Lin Yiyang walked slowly behind Yu Xiaotian, watched these guys leave, and sneered: "These bastards actually want to use this method to give the general a blow, and they don't even think about it."

Their portions!”

It wasn't until this moment that Yu Xiaotian put away the smile on his face and said in a cold voice: "Send someone to Zhenhaiwei to check for me! Find out how much free money these people have eaten and what they are doing in the local area.

Find out all the bad things you have done! Hum hum! If you want to embarrass me, I will let you see my methods!"

Lin Yiyang immediately nodded to accept the order, and immediately turned around and started making arrangements. Now with the financial resources of Sea Wolf, it is enough to support the construction of a huge intelligence network throughout Fujian. But everything Yu Xiaotian wants to know is really very difficult.

There were few things he couldn't find.

(Continue to ask for monthly votes! Haha! In addition, special thanks to several friends who have given me rewards in the past two days, Ying Zhiwu, Xiao Xiaochunfeng, sgz1973, dennissee, Yizuiren, especially brothers Xiaochunfeng in the desert who gave me heavy rewards.

, I can’t thank you enough, thank you very much! You deserve it!)
