Chapter 377
But this time Wencai thought about it, Yan Ying not only cared, but also looked very dignified.He himself knew how many Jianming remnants died under his knife. Once the opponent rose up, others might be able to escape by chance, but he could not escape death.

Those Jianming remnants will never let him go!
It was a matter of his own life, death and future, Yan Ying was more serious than ever.When he heard Wencai say that he had well-equipped armor and weapons for 3000 people, and 5000 people had food and grass for three months, his face became even more ugly.

You know, even in the guard army, the armor rate is less than [-]%, and most of them are leather armor.Even in the frontier army, only half of them wear armor, more than [-]% of them are equipped with iron armor, and the rest are leather armor.

But the [-] armors mentioned by Wen Cai are all fine iron armors, enough to pull an army of tens of thousands of people.

Yan Ying is a veteran, and he fully understands how terrifying it would be if there were a core elite of 3000 people in an army of tens of thousands of people!
These are not those unarmed refugees who can be driven away.

"I have long heard that at the end of the Great War, Emperor Jianming discovered that the situation was not good, so he secretly hid a batch of armor and weapons for his comeback in the future. But he did not expect that the humble Murong Villa actually had five Thousands of armor and weapons, how many things did Emperor Jianming hide back then!" Yan Ying said through gritted teeth.

Taizu pacified the world and spent decades governing with painstaking efforts. He indeed left a very rich inheritance for Emperor Jianming.If it wasn't for Emperor Jianming's own death, even the current emperor, who is capable of all things, would not be able to suppress the whole world with a small area, and finally Yuji ascended the throne.

Several years of great wars, the huge Great Xia was almost full of wars, which made the originally prosperous empire become impoverished again, and everything had to start all over again.

Fortunately, the current emperor has some abilities. After more than ten years of recuperation, the empire has regained its stability.However, compared with the prosperity of the country and the safety of the people during the Taizu period, it is still far inferior.

Moreover, in the past 20 years, the civil strife in Daxia has continued, but it has allowed the surrounding forces to recuperate and grow again.

Among them, the prairie tribes in the north are the most serious. The Golden Family on the prairie has gathered many tribes, and now they have hundreds of thousands of cavalry. They have begun to invade the border every year, making the situation on the border tense.

Wen Cai shook his head: "If that's the case, that's fine. I suspect that some officials in Ji Province secretly communicated with the remaining Jianming party. Those armors and weapons may not have been hidden by Emperor Jianming back then. They may be the latest military equipment."

"No way, those civil servants are so daring, are they so bold?" Yan Ying expressed doubts.

Generals at this time have enough qualifications to despise civil servants.

Wen Cai sneered: "Don't underestimate these civil servants. If they had no lower limit, they would be far more shameless than imagined. Take the salary of Jinpaowei as an example, if it were you, would you do it?"

"will not."

Yan Ying said decisively: "Drinking soldiers' blood has happened in the previous dynasty. In this dynasty, no general dares to drink soldiers' blood. The Gao Ling of the great grandfather is there, and the generals who dare to drink soldiers' blood will be executed. More What's more, Jinpaowei is directly under the emperor..."

"But those civil servants dared to blatantly embezzle the brocade guard's salary just by making up a reason. They are so bold and hairy. Do you think there is anything they can't do for such officials. "Wen Cai made no secret of his dissatisfaction with civil officials in his words.

Now his identity is doomed to be irreconcilable with the civil official group, so it is right to discredit the civil official group so much.

In fact, there are not many civil servants at this time who are truly bold, and they are all high-ranking officials, all of whom have been used to problems by the emperor.The officials below are still very cautious. After all, it was only less than 20 years since the death of the great grandfather, and the shadow in his heart has not completely dissipated.

That man was a real ruthless man who hated corrupt officials very much. He ordered officials who embezzled more than 60 taels of silver to be killed. During his reign, he killed as many as 16 officials.

Even because the officials were killed too hard, there were not many manpower for daily operations, so a policy of waiting for death was issued...

Even though those corrupt officials deserve to be killed, they have to finish the work at hand before they can die.

Really ruthless to the extreme!

It is said that there was one year in the period of Taizu, and 360 four officials were sent to the same wholesale list, all of whom were Jinshi supervisors. After one year, six people were killed, and 350 eight people were left behind.

All of them were caught in one go, and none of the 360 ​​four people was missed!
……

When Yan Ying heard what Wen Cai said, he also reacted.Over the years, he has become accustomed to the submissiveness of civil servants, but he did not expect that those civil servants would have such courage, even an organization like Jinpaowei would dare to reach out, he was really impatient.

"Then what do you say?" Yan Ying's face was full of murderous intent.

Wencai's face was expressionless, and his eyes showed a cold light: "It's about the remnant party of Jianming. I think we can kill it first. I need to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the guards, take over Yanping City, and then seal up the warehouses."

More than a thousand households of Jinpaowei have the right to mobilize troops. As the deputy commander of Jinpaowei, Wen Cai can mobilize 1000 local troops according to the law.

But this is only in name. If you really want to mobilize troops, you need to build a good relationship with the local guard.It's okay to say that Jinpaowei was in its heyday, but now there are really few guards who will give face.

This is called checks and balances!

The reason why Wencai rushed directly to the guardhouse was because he wanted to move troops into the city quickly so that the rest of the Jianming party would not get news and destroy the evidence.

For those civil servants, Wencai didn't have the slightest trust. If he didn't bring troops into the city, he might end up with nothing.

Besides, Wencai has been impeached frantically by civil officials in Ji Province for the past six months, and he has been holding back his anger for a long time, and this time he just vented it out.

"Yes, I will transfer all the most elite men and horses under my command to you, including my own soldiers." Yan Ying was also very decisive and made a decision immediately.

Wen Cai nodded in satisfaction, lamenting once again that cronyism was not unreasonable in ancient times.When it is critical, you need the full support of those loyal people, otherwise you will not be able to do anything.

If you don't have a group of loyal people under your command, no matter how high your official position is, it's just a fate of being emptied.

"Okay, I'll lead the army into the city right away, and you should also pay attention to the guards, and be careful that the remnants of Jianming's party jump over the wall in a hurry." Wen Cai nodded, reminded Yan Ying, and left in great strides.
