Beautiful mayor's wife

Ma Xiaoyao gave instructions on the spot to dismiss the six ten chiefs from their positions, and then put them in prison to serve their sentences. , within three days to exchange the corrupt money back, and those who fail to return it within the time limit will be punished with a heavier punishment.

Seeing that Ma Xiaoyao was playing the real game, those low-level generals quit immediately. They gathered together to make trouble, and made the whole barracks into a mess. Basically, they are centurion commanders and ten commanders. As for the thousand commanders and ten thousand commanders, they hide in the sidelines and watch the show, and do not come out to stop them at all, allowing the situation to expand.

This morning, Ma Xiaoyao sat alone in the room and read the documents. These documents were left by the former general Han Mingguang. The documents contained records of Han Mingguang's handling of things. Through reading these documents, Ma Xiaoyao learned a lot. less experience.

"My lord, why are you still in the mood to read here?" the head housekeeper, Gu Zhiqiu, rushed in hastily.

"What's wrong?" Ma Xiaoyao asked without raising his head.

"Something happened, something big happened." Gu Zhiqiu took a breath: "The centurion and ten commanders below united to make trouble, messing up the entire barracks. The most annoying thing is that those ten thousand commanders He and the commander actually hid aside to watch a play..."

"I know about this." Ma Xiaoyao nodded lightly.

"You know everything?" Gu Zhiqiu was stunned: "Since you know everything, why don't you come out and take care of it?"

"Take care? Why should I take care of it?" Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "They can make trouble if they want to, I don't bother to take care of it."

"My lord..." Gu Zhiqiu was about to speak when Ma Xiaoyao interrupted him.

Ma Xiaoyao put down the paperwork, looked up at Gu Zhiqiu: "Old Gu, I would like to ask you two questions, first, why did those centurions and ten officers make trouble?"

"Aren't you asking knowingly? It's not because of the formation of the investigation team." Gu Zhiqiu said angrily: "The investigation team is going to investigate the low-level generals who embezzled military expenses and enriched their own pockets. In a hurry."

Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Second question, are the soldiers below involved in the trouble?"

"Soldier..." Gu Zhiqiu froze for a moment: "The soldier didn't participate in the trouble..."

"This is the end." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "I investigate the misappropriation of military expenses by the generals at the bottom. Not only will the soldiers below object, but they should be very happy. As long as I can gain the favor of the soldiers, I don't care about offending those hundred-level generals." As for the commanders and the commanders of the ten, how many people are there in the sum of all the commanders of the centurions and the commanders of the tens? Even if they are all arrested, it will not be a big deal."

Gu Zhiqiu blinked his big eyes, and seemed to understand a bit: "My lord, you did this... to win the favor of the soldiers?"

"Well, I do have this idea." Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "How many soldiers are there in the Baihu Banner barracks? It is conservatively estimated that there are 10,000+ soldiers? If all these 10,000+ soldiers support me, then my reputation in Baihu Banner will be greatly reduced." If I want to reach the top, even Ding Xiong and others will not dare to fight against me anymore." Speaking of which, Ma Xiaoyao added: "As the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, as long as I can successfully get the support of 10,000+ soldiers, Then I will be able to completely control the White Tiger Banner barracks."

"My lord is still far-sighted, and my subordinates admire it." Gu Zhiqiu sighed: "Just in this way, you will offend those generals to death."

"If you offend, you will be offended." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand indifferently: "Strictly speaking, if those generals don't do things that violate military regulations, they don't have to worry about being investigated. In the end, those who really hate me have done it. Sorry about that."

Gu Zhiqiu let out a sigh of relief: "The key problem is... More than half of the generals have problems..."

"Then replace them all." Ma Xiaoyao said carelessly: "There is a lack of everything these days, but there is no shortage of people. Take down all these moths, and then replace them with conscientious and principled people."

"My lord, your thinking is too simple." Gu Zhiqiu shook his head: "Those generals have more or less backgrounds. If you want to take them down, they will definitely resist. At that time, they might give your lord cause a lot of trouble.”

"You don't have to worry about this, I have a way to deal with it." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand, just kidding, with the emperor backing him, who is he afraid of?

"Another point is that although these generals' character is not good, they are all very high in martial arts. If they are taken down, there will be no one with the same level of cultivation to replace them in a short time..." A person from the Baihu Banner barracks There are indeed quite a few, a full 10,000+ people, but most of them are ordinary soldiers, and there are not many advanced warriors at all.

"Oh, that's a question..." Ma Xiaoyao showed a thoughtful expression for the first time.

"I think adults should take their time." Gu Zhiqiu suggested: "Don't act too hastily, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

"The arrow has already been shot, and it will be difficult to take it back." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "Besides, Ding Xiong and others must be hiding aside and waiting to see my jokes. If I compromise now, they don't know what will happen." How to laugh at me."

"Then take another step back." Gu Zhiqiu said: "You issue an order that any general who voluntarily returns military expenses corrupted by ink can be punished lightly."

"If you do this...the soldiers below will be very disappointed..." Ma Xiaoyao pondered for a moment and said: "The military expenditure allocated by the superior is mainly used for the construction of the barracks, the payment of the military salary, and the improvement of the lives of the soldiers. Now most of the military expenditure is used by the generals Being greedy will directly lead to a decline in the quality of life of the soldiers. The soldiers must have a lot of resentment in their hearts. I will form an investigation team to investigate those low-level generals, and I will definitely be well received by the soldiers. If I suddenly change the order at this time... Soldier What will they think of me? They will probably be very disappointed with me, right? As I said just now, the people who win the hearts of the people win the world, and if the hearts of the people are lost, then I will not be able to be the commander-in-chief."

"Then what do you mean..."

"Just do what you want, and there will be absolutely no compromise."

"But if you do this, it will cause a big mess."

"Chaos is chaos, what are you afraid of? As I said just now, how many people are there for all the generals? Even if they gather together to make chaos, I am not afraid. What I fear most are those soldiers. 10,000+ soldiers are like a sharp sword. If you use it well, you can kill all directions and shake the world, but if you don’t use it well, you will cut yourself.”

"But……"

"But what? Speak directly, don't hesitate."

"My lord, have you ever thought that once those generals are pushed into a hurry, I'm afraid they will take risks, and then your lord's situation will be in danger."

"What? Do they still dare to kill me?"

"...It's not good to say that, once a person is in a hurry, he can do anything."

"It's really against the sky! Hmph! Don't worry, there are bared-toothed beasts protecting me, and no one wants to hurt me. Besides, if they really dare to make trouble, hehe, then I will call on 10,000+ soldiers to encircle and suppress those Generals, being besieged by 10,000+ soldiers at the same time, even if they have three heads and six arms, they will probably die in the end." Ma Xiaoyao laughed and said: "I punish those generals, and the soldiers who will benefit in the end will definitely be grateful to me. If I say something casually, they will definitely obey me." Ma Xiaoyao is not stupid, he has thought through all the consequences before forming the investigation team, and made some appropriate arrangements, including the barren tooth beast Protected by 10,000+ soldiers, what is Ma Xiaoyao afraid of?

Gu Zhiqiu thought about it carefully, and felt that what Ma Xiaoyao said was correct. With the strength of the eighth-level barbarian warrior, it is still very easy to protect Ma Xiaoyao. If you add the support of 10,000+ soldiers... Ma Xiaoyao's There is really no need to worry about safety.

"Since your lord has made up his mind, I won't say anything more." Gu Zhiqiu sighed helplessly.

"Old Gu, you are a good person everywhere, but you are too timid." Ma Xiaoyao said: "If you want to succeed, don't be afraid of taking risks. You can seek wealth and wealth! Besides, I formed the investigation team for the purpose of bringing The Baihuqi barracks opened a hole. Think about it, why did those centurions and ten commanders dare to blatantly embezzle the Mexican military expenses? Isn’t it because of the consent of those ten thousand and thousand commanders? I will investigate the centurion and ten commanders. Commander, those ten thousand commanders and thousand commanders will also be anxious, just wait and see, it won’t be long before those ten thousand commanders and thousand commanders will be unable to sit still, and they will definitely try their best to oppose me , as long as they are willing to make a move, they will show their flaws, and then... hehe... I will use thunderous means to punish them severely, and I will let them know how powerful I am."

Gu Zhiqiu felt a cold war in his heart. He realized that he still underestimated Ma Xiaoyao. Ma Xiaoyao was not only smart, but also very skillful. The most important point... Ma Xiaoyao was cruel. At this time, Gu Zhiqiu began to feel sorry for those generals Come on, they will definitely not have an easy life after meeting such a cruel and ruthless general.

"By the way, Gu, is there any clue to what I asked you to investigate last time?" Ma Xiaoyao changed the subject.

"Oh... I've checked, and Ouyang Zilan was locked up by the family a long time ago." Gu Zhiqiu said, "I heard that he made some mistake..."

"Prisoned by the family?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned suddenly: "It must be because of me..."

"Huh? My lord, what did you say?" Gu Zhiqiu didn't hear clearly.

"Oh, it's nothing." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "Old Gu, please send me a greeting card, saying that I want to visit the head of the Ouyang family tomorrow."

"Okay, no problem, I'll do it right away." Gu Zhiqiu nodded, turned around and strode away.

"Ouyang Zilan, if you persist for another day, I will rescue you tomorrow." Ma Xiaoyao muttered to himself, there are not many people who can make Ma Xiaoyao owe favors, and Ouyang Zilan is one of them. With the help of Zilan, it is impossible for Ma Xiaoyao to escape Han Mingguang's pursuit smoothly, let alone find Qianyecao to relieve the poison in his body. , Ma Xiaoyao should repay others.
