How to survive in poverty: I use a simulator to farm
Chapter 170 Supervising the Army
The people in the government have become more ferocious recently.
They arrested people everywhere and beat them everywhere. Many men who fled to the mountains were caught by them and sent to military camps.
The ancient military camp was a complete underworld.
Those at the top can hit those at the bottom as they please, scold them as they please, and kill them as they please. Especially in times of war.
When the military pay issued by the imperial court falls into the hands of those at the top, most of it will be siphoned off.
The remaining three melons and two dates were divided among the small heads below who could speak.
It was not easy to be a farmer in ancient times, and it was even harder to be a soldier.
However, such a difficult thing was actually done by these ordinary people in the northern border.
If there weren't enough young men, children aged 11 or 12 would be recruited. If the children of eleven or twelve years old were not enough, they would arrest old men of sixty, seventy, or even eighty years old.
In short, Magistrate Zhao is now working hard to gather the 50,000 militiamen issued by the imperial court.
It was only the beginning of spring this year, and Da Zhu State had mobilized a force that was said to be a million-strong army.
Nearly one million people gathered together to be quite impactful.
At this moment, Chen Feiyan's family, who had been captured, were hiding in this huge and chaotic team.
The commander of this team was a general named Wang Qin. The supervisors were two eunuchs sent by the imperial court.
One is named Li and the other is named Peng.
The eunuch named Li was a small man with a pockmarked face, and was known as Li Pockmarked.
Another eunuch named Peng was very domineering. Although he had never fought in a war, he insisted on commanding this and that in the military camp. Every time he talked to General Wang and other generals in the military camp, his nostrils wanted to shoot to the sky.
For such an unpleasant person, many soldiers gave him an unpleasant and unlucky nickname. It's called "the ghost of back time".
The eunuch named Li is self-aware of himself and knows his abilities. When General Wang was training troops and preparing for various battles, he would never interrupt or give blind orders.
However, the eunuch named Peng was different.
He believed that he was personally appointed by the emperor. Still a supervisor.
The so-called military supervisors must supervise the three armies.
He had to watch over the emperor carefully and not allow the people below to support themselves and intend to rebel.
This time, Chaotian sent millions of troops.
Half a million sergeants, half a million militiamen transporting grain and grass.
Such a large-scale war shows that Long Live Lord is determined to drive away the Xiongnu completely.
If he helps Long live the Lord solve such a serious problem this time, he, a little eunuch, might be able to leave a mark in history from now on.
Leave your name in history, who is a man of great influence who does not want and who does not love?
And it still has such a good reputation.
General. Now that he is a supervisor, he will become a general in the future.
How impressive is the reputation of General?
If he, a eunuch, could accomplish such earth-shattering feats, then his life would be considered worthwhile. Because he had such ambitions in his heart, Eunuch Peng couldn't help but start to find faults with General Wang, other generals, and other captains in the following days. .
When it was dark in the morning, he would get up early, even earlier than everyone in the military camp.
As long as someone in the military camp got up earlier than him, he would point at their nostrils and curse.
He scolded him for failing the court, scolding him for being sorry for Long Live the Lord, and scolding him for being incompetent and unlike a man, unable to even get up early in the morning.
Eunuch Li saw him gain the right to speak in the military camp within just half a month. Accustomed to the intrigues and fights for power in the palace, he couldn't help but interfere in various ways in the military camp and began to form cliques.
So, within the next month, the entire military camp was turned into a mess by the two of them.
There were endless incidents of verbal abuse and fights.
Eunuch Peng couldn't help but become a little anxious when he saw that General Wang had already brought millions of troops and had been resting here for more than a month, but he still didn't want to send troops.
These millions of troops are hoarded here, doing nothing here every day, eating so much, and having so much shit... Do these people want to enjoy happiness here?
When he thought of the Long Live Lord above, allocating military pay to people like them who were ungrateful and ungrateful... and these people enjoyed their success, Eunuch Peng seriously suspected that General Wang and other generals were actually disobedient. Heart.
They just want to drain the treasury, and are secretly colluding with the Huns in private... It is estimated that when the time is right, they will immediately lead the Huns from the north to attack the imperial court.
After living in the deep palace for decades, he was still safe and sound, and he could still be trusted by the Long Live Lord above to be sent to such an army, all because Eunuch Peng liked to think too much.
Every time he thinks that the other party will harm him, he will strike first.
Because of his acumen, Eunuch Peng quickly wrote a secret letter late one night. Then the message was passed by flying pigeons and reached the emperor in the Forbidden City.
When the emperor received the secret letter, he was furious.
He did not expect that the few generals he trusted were all disobedient.
They hold military power, and now they want to rebel.
The emperor's ancestors relied on rebellion to conquer the world. So after they came to power, they were particularly worried that others would rebel against them.
Today's emperor thinks that everyone he meets is a traitor.
So, he summoned several ministers he trusted in the court overnight and asked them to circulate the secret letter he had obtained.
After everyone read the secret letter, everyone frowned.
This person said that General Wang rebelled. This seems unlikely, right?
Who is General Wang?
General Wang has always been loyal to the court.
His whole family, including the entire Wang family, now lives in the capital. What reason does he have to rebel outside?
Besides, if you fail to rebel, you will be beheaded, and the nine tribes will be exterminated.
General Wang had been made an earl a few years ago. Their whole family relied on the imperial court.
It's impossible for them to just so blindly abandon the benefits distributed by the court and choose something whose future and outcome are completely uncertain, right?
I really disagreed, so some ministers stood up and said some fair words.
Some people directly patted their chests, ensuring that General Wang would never rebel. He also said that if he rebelled, he could use his own head as a ball to kick.
To put it mildly, the emperor is someone who can listen to other people's opinions.
Seeing that all the ministers under his command were saying that General Wang could not rebel, he thought for a few times and then believed them.
General Wang, let him give him some more time.
