Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 99 The top wants to check Mr. Jia

The Muguomu camp was taken over by the bandits, and Jia Liu didn't even frown, because according to Lao Cui, there were more than [-] real soldiers in the Muguomu camp. If all these people were buried, it would undoubtedly be the spring of Jia Liu and the Eight Banners of the Han army. .

As for this war of attacking two counties with the power of the whole country, Jia Liu even hoped that the fight would last as long as possible, so that Jia Liu would have enough confidence to go back and discuss business with Heshen.

The loss of 700,000 taels of military pay was simply earth-shattering for the Muguomu camp, no less than a thousand and eight banner soldiers being wiped out by the bandits.

All the generals above the fourth rank were summoned to Wen Zhongtang's tent for an emergency military meeting.

On Jia Liu's side, except for Master Fu Sheng'a calling him to ask about the specific situation, no one came to him immediately after that.

After handing over the remaining half of the military salary, Jia Liu didn't know whether to stay here and wait for inquiries, or lead the team back.

So he went in first to inquire whether Chang Bingzhong and Liu Heyi were still in Daying, but was told that they had been transferred to Haidu Tong a few days ago.

This made Jia Liu feel a little uncomfortable, because he felt that the two of them might be more dangerous than good.

After returning to the team, he finally told Zu Yingyuan and Wang Fu about the incident.As a result, Zu and Wang didn't know the danger of Hailan's investigation, but they were happy that Chang and Liu were promoted to the forward school.

Jia Liu wanted to say, think about it or forget it.

Everyone has his own life.

Not long after, messengers galloped out of the camp one after another.

Jia Liu reckoned that Wen Zhongtang was really angry this time, and most likely he would mobilize elite troops from the front line to defend the rear.

In this way, the matter of hijacking the cash truck can no longer be done, so as not to hit the muzzle of the gun.

The cash truck cannot be robbed, and the grain cannot be cashed in. Jia Liuxun thought that if he wanted to make progress, he really had to make some military exploits as Liu De said.

After waiting for a long time, Lu Yuanguang came out and called him over, saying that Lord Fu asked Jia Liuxian to lead the team back, and Lord Fu would take care of other things.

Jia Liu didn't dare to ask whether Lao Fufu had reported too much this time, but asked again whether the group of people from the plateau who were "cooperating" were really surrendered or fake surrender.

"I said, this matter has nothing to do with you, you don't need to care about it."

Lu Yuanguang still didn't tell Jia Liu, whether he didn't know or knew he didn't want to tell.

Jia Liu was embarrassed.

That's right, he just reached a non-aggression treaty with him, but didn't reach an all-weather strategic partnership with Jia Liu, so how could he tell all the secrets and important matters.

The two sides are essentially enemies.

The so-called cooperation is just to reduce troubles for each other.

Why did Jia Liu ask those plateau people twice?
He just suspected that these plateau people had surrendered falsely, because it seemed that Lu Yuanguang was very familiar with them.

What does it mean that a rebel undercover in the Qing army is familiar with the plateau people who surrendered?
The answer is almost ready to come out.

informer?

There are no doors!

Jia Liu hoped that the whole army of Muguomu would be wiped out, Wen Zhongtang would die for the country, and the court would send another Zhongtang to continue to suppress the bandits
Therefore, for the sake of safety, Jia Liu felt that it was best not to come to the Muguomu camp, lest the city gate catch fire and harm the fish in the pond.

Just go back.

On the way, Zu Yingyuan, Bao Guozhong, Zhang Shisan, Wang Fu, Wang Si, Zhang Dabiao and other backbone gangs were called together.

It is mainly to discuss how to divide the spoils and how to buy officials.

Jia Liu himself didn't intend to leave the donated title, but Bao Guozhong and Liu De's green camp could leave.

If the money is in place, it is not a problem to directly donate to lieutenants and generals.

The banner member depends on everyone's wishes. After all, not everyone wants to have a limited future.

How to buy it depends on waiting for the stolen money to come back, and implement it according to everyone's wishes. It is best to strive for group purchases.

This way, it's cheaper.

However, Jia Liu also made it clear to everyone that he cannot buy an official for the time being.

As soon as a few 100,000 taels were lost in the salary here, the officers and soldiers who participated in the escort over there took the money to buy officials. Even a fool would know that there was a problem.

Of course everyone knew the pros and cons, so they asked Mr. Jia to decide.

How to divide the money, we have to wait for Liu De to get back the bank notes that have been cashed out.

"Anyway, follow me, it's impossible to treat everyone badly."

The front was not far from Akeli Village, but someone was chasing him from behind.

The person who came was a battalion soldier named Ma Wu, who said that Mr. Lu Qian had sent him over to deliver a message to Master Jia.

"what's up?"

All the backbones of the gang were present, and of course Jia Liu would not let them retreat.But Ma Wu refused to say anything.

"My lord, let's go first."

Seeing this, Zu Yingyuan and the others knew it was interesting, so they led the team to move on.

Jia Liu glanced at Ma Wu and smiled, "Let's talk now."

What Ma Wu said next almost didn't startle Jia Liu's soul.

Due to the robbing of the army's salary twice in a row, and the recent intensified attacks on the food road by the bandits, the army's food and grass were repeatedly unable to provide food and grass. In the end, the furious Wen Zhongtang was forced to withdraw 1400 elite Banner soldiers from the front line to return to the rear.

Jia Liu guessed this matter, but he didn't guess that Wen Zhongtang sent someone to investigate him and listed him as one of the suspected collaborators.

There are two people in charge of investigating Jia Liu and his arresting team of the Han Army.

One is Arsuna, a first-class bodyguard in front of the imperial court, who was born in the Yellow Banner of Manchuria.

The other is Li Shijie, the procurator of Sichuan in Daying. Before he came to Daying to listen to the appointment, he was in charge of Sichuan's criminal investigation.

It is a professional counterpart.

"When will they come?"

Jia Liu was a little restless, there were too many loopholes in this matter, and if he was really investigated by his superiors, he would probably be finished.

Ma Wu said it was tomorrow.

Jia Liu nodded: "Go back and tell Mr. Lu Qian, and just say that I know."

Ma Wu also nodded slightly, and said: "Master Lu asked the younger one to tell the lord that Arsuna is greedy for money, and the staff is full, so if the lord wants to turn bad luck into good fortune, don't be reluctant to give up money."

Jia Liu knew that the person surnamed Lu was asking him to spend money on Arsuna, because this first-class full guard was the one in charge of the investigation, and if he closed the case, the matter would be settled.

After Ma Wu left, everyone quickly surrounded him.

Jia Liu glanced at them and told them that Wen Zhongtang had sent someone to investigate them.

"broken!"

Bao Guozhong's face changed color on the spot in shock.

"What are you afraid of?"

Zu Yingyuan didn't think about it, "Then spend money to settle Arsuna, anyway we have plenty of money."

"Yes, young master, it's about your life, so don't be reluctant to give up money." Yang Zhisheng was afraid that the young master would fall into the eyes of money and ruin things.

"Can't spend money,"

It was Zhang Shisan who spoke, "The loss is 700,000 taels. How much will we have to spend to satisfy the full guard? One hundred thousand, 200,000, or 300,000?"

Everyone was speechless, the fact is true, outsiders don't know that they only got half of the half, if it was thrown at the full guard, wouldn't their work be in vain.

Wang Fu reminded everyone: "If you send money, you are actually telling the guard Man that we swallowed the money."

"You can't send money, and you can't let them investigate us, what should we do?"

Jia Liu quietly looked at the backbones.

"Get rid of people."

Bao Guozhong and Zu Yingyuan said the same four words at the same time.
