[Red Mansion] Father and Son Crossover

After clearing up this wave of bandits, the soldiers had just finished clearing the battlefield when news came from the mountain that three bandits who were about to flee down the mountain were cleared out, and these three bandits were cleared according to the files when they were sent. It was verified that they were bandits from the Hubei generation. One was the son of the bandit leader, and the other two were small bandits. They were captured during the suppression of bandits in the middle of the year.

According to the interrogation of the remaining bandits at the scene, the bandit was very powerful, not to mention occupying three hills, and there were no less than [-] young and strong, and there were green forests of the same kind that echoed each other around. Even now, there are no less than five hundred people left.

And among the more than five hundred people, this group is the strongest, because they had already got some information in advance to avoid the bandits last time, but the leader's son and the two little leaders were reluctant to go down the mountain to secretly The hidden silver money, wanted to go back to get it, so it went into the urn, and was captured in the confusion.

As soon as the news from these two sides was confirmed, whether it was Jiao Yufeng's superior general or the commander in charge of this small camp, everyone was overjoyed for a while.This credit was suddenly exaggerated by three points at this moment.It's not just about repelling the incoming enemies, but also the credit for beheading the remaining bandits. Adding up like this, how can this credit be small?

Not to mention that after cleaning up these corpses, the surviving gangsters gained after identifying the corpses, from the big boss to the small boss, almost all of them were wiped out. Such an achievement can be obtained by saying that they can be completely exterminated. What kind of credit?I'm afraid that the heads of just a few leaders are enough for them to earn a lot of money.

And the facts are indeed the same. It took only half an afternoon to report the victory to the capital. People from the Ministry of Punishment to the Ministry of War came, and even brought the old foreman.Waiting for the confirmation here, even the officials have come, this is to confirm the military exploits.It was the first time for Jiao Yufeng to experience this routine, and he was still a little dazed, but the few veterans who had walked with him in the battle of life and death were already dancing with joy.There was a bloody and muddy man who put his arm around Jiao Yufeng's shoulders and said loudly:

"Jiao Erlang, you boy, you are really a lucky star. I thought that if you come to this Beijing camp, you will have to spend a few years of boring life. I don't think it will take long to turn around. This is such a happy event."

Your body smells very strong, okay, you are still so close, how does this make people breathe?Jiao Yufeng really wanted to push this person away, but before he moved his hand, a person approached him.

"Practicing all day long, this time it's finally another fight. Alas, if I don't fight like this for a long time, I feel like my bones will get rusted."

This gang of murderers, yes, they are all elites selected from all over the world. If they don't fight, how can they stand out?But this. . .Is the belligerent a bit powerful?Jiao Yufeng felt that there was a big gap between himself and them.The common language is almost zero.

If you want to say a few words to divert the topic, there is another person in front of you.

"Jiao Erlang, you are knowledgeable, help us to calculate quickly, how much work and how much reward can we get in this encounter?"

Um?this problem. . .Jiao Yufeng also wanted to know, so he immediately forgot about the smell and the murderer, and started counting with his fingers.

"According to what I said earlier, those are the bandit chiefs. Count them separately from the big to the young. The leader is 50 taels, the boss is 20 taels, and the small boss is 10 taels. The total is about 200. The remaining ordinary bandit chiefs are 5 taels, so that's about There are also 500 taels, which add up to 700, and then the defensive benefit is counted as one merit, the rescue is counted as one merit, and the killing of bandits is another merit, so the three merits are superimposed, oh yes, and..."

I don't think so, everyone is happy with this calculation.Those guys who were still full of ferocious faces when they were fighting just now were all smiling honestly and contentedly.

"If we are so competitive, there are other rewards from the higher-ups. If there are more rewards, even if they are divided equally, then each of us can get ten taels. If we count according to the order of the rush and the number of heads, I have killed five. , no matter what, you can get 30 taels, which is really rich."

"This money is still a small matter. No matter how poor the family is, with our monthly salary, we can make do with enough food. The key is the credit. If you save enough, you can go up one liter, that would be great.

.The monthly salary of the upper level is doubled. "

"It's hard to say. Whether we're defending well or rushing to help, we didn't say anything, but this bandit... after all, they have already reported their merits. We are reporting, but we may not be able to blame us."

"Dead ball, if it wasn't for their carelessness and the wind leaking, how could they have escaped so much? If it wasn't for someone sending a letter, would they know that the person is locked here? In this way, they made a mistake, and we deserve a share. I Say, who are you helping?"

"Hey, why are you unreasonable, I'm telling the truth..."

Few of the soldiers are gentlemen, and they can fight as soon as they talk, look, isn't it, just now they were good friends, and now they are fighting.But at this time Jiao Yufeng didn't care about it, all he could think about was what they said just now.

Twelve can actually feel good?That's right, he has forgotten that at this time, the average soldier's monthly salary is only five renminbi, and when it reaches a long time, it is only one or two renminbi. Stones, converted into money and grain, according to the current price of one tael of silver and two stones, this is only 9 taels of silver.And it still took advantage of being in the capital, otherwise it would be so deductible. . .I'm afraid I can only get half of it.Under such circumstances, what should the lives of these soldiers be like?

Jiao Yufeng's heart suddenly felt sour. Thinking about his family's life today, thinking about the poverty of the soldiers since ancient times, and somehow thinking about the fact that the guard soldiers in the late Ming Dynasty were in arrears of food for one or two years, he couldn't help but fight for these Han people have a little bit of injustice.

But he can only hide such grievances in his heart, and dare not say anything, because this is the reality and the general trend, and he, a low-level low-level official who is nothing like him, can and cannot point it out.The only thing he can do is to help put the credit on the bucket, and try his best to let the superiors know their hard work, so that the reward silver can be given enough and more.

"Okay, stop yelling, I will go to my uncle's house after I go back, and ask him to find a way to talk to the top, we are really very dangerous this time, if we don't find out that something is wrong, be on alert in time, and let these people come Sudden attack, maybe they really made it happen, how many brothers will we die by then? If something goes wrong, who should be blamed? This should be known to the higher-ups."

When he said this, the people who were bickering just now stopped immediately, licking their faces one by one, leaned over and said with a smile:

"Jiao Erlang, it's up to you."

"Enough loyalty, that's what it should be."

"Hey, we can only count on you. If you don't ask for help, at least a few more money."

Okay, I got it, these bastards probably thought of this a long time ago, they just dug a hole and waited for him to jump into it by himself.He was still too naive, didn't he already understand when he was in a coma, they knew that there was an uncle behind him, and he was related to the Jia family.At that time, he should have thought that these people must have ideas, no. . .

"Okay, I don't know you guys yet, but I'll talk about it first. I'm sure I'll talk about this matter, but I can't guarantee what the boss thinks."

No matter what, they are also partners in fighting together. Even if he is a little cautious, Jiao Yufeng doesn't think there is anything to be angry with. These people are neither trying to get promoted by taking advantage of others, nor are they trying to make a fool of themselves. They just want a fair treatment. Said that he was still one of them, even if he wasn't, for the sake of these soldiers who worked hard to support their families, he had no reason to refuse.

The post-war counting here is still going on, Jiao Yufeng and others have already started to pack their things and go back to their station, and at the same time, the first wave of loot distribution has already begun.

What?The reward hasn't come down yet?Dear, this reward or something is given by the government. Could it be that these bandits are all naked?Not to mention the gold and silver, weapons, etc., but the clothes, hey, they can also be exchanged for money. Otherwise, where do you think that there are so many clothes in those old clothes shops?Bah, bah, bah, that's too much to say, it's easy to get sick.Anyway, in the eyes of the soldiers, the clothes of the dead are also money.As long as it is cleaned and there is no bloody smell after drying, it can also get a lot of benefits.

For this reason, once these people arrived at the camp, they didn't even care about taking a break. One by one, those who chopped firewood, those who put up pots

The pot is busy, I am afraid that the blood will not be washed clean after it is over.Jiao Yufeng was speechless for a while.

Of course, Jiao Yufeng would not do such a thing, and no one asked him to do it. In the eyes of everyone, the most important thing for Jiao Yufeng to do right now is to change his clothes and go to the capital as soon as possible, so that he can send the news there as soon as possible. , so as not to be late and delay them from receiving the reward money.

Jiao Yufeng lived up to expectations, he went quite quickly, and when he got to Jiao, everyone said it was very happy, but this is what he said. . .Jiao Da Na's eyes widened, he was stunned for a while, and then he laughed, patted Jiao Yufeng on the shoulder, and kept shouting "Hello".

"I don't want you to be so promising now. In the past, I only said that my hunting skills are not bad. I don't want to be able to kill the enemy now. Okay, okay, my ability is finally not wasted in vain. With You, our family can be regarded as an inheritance."

You are an old soldier, still inherit?How do you listen. . .No, Jiao Da, aren’t you bloated?Is this treating yourself as a family of military generals?But then again, if Jiao Yufeng really becomes a military officer in the future, Jiao Shibo will take over. . .That seems to be really possible.What kind of aristocratic family these days, after all, isn't that how it grew up.

Well, it's far away, it's far away, now it's time to talk about business.Jiao Yufeng restrained his mind, told the whole incident from the beginning to the end, and talked about the entanglement in rewarding the merits, and then said to Jiao Da with a serious face:

"I didn't think that this bandit must be involved in this matter. If there is anyone in charge, I know in my heart that even if we lose this time, there will always be a time to make up for it next time, but my heart...Uncle , this bandit can know the news in advance and avoid it, and he can know the place where he is being held, and he also knows the terrain of this area. I always feel that there is something wrong here, look..."

Even if you want to grab some credit, you have to be a famous teacher, right? Not to mention, this suspicion actually came from the hexagram image, Jiao Yufeng has never felt safe in his heart, so he must say it.

And what about Jiao Da?Hearing this, he also frowned, and then nodded very neatly.

"I understand what you mean. If there are other key points here, then there will be a first time, who knows if there will be a second time. It must be carefully checked. Otherwise, it will only be negligent. One time, if the soldiers were lost, the Beijing camp would suffer. In this way, you go back first, and I will tell the Duke of the State that the Jia family and the two houses have been in charge of the Beijing camp for many years, and I would never want to see you suffer. "

By the way, what I want is your words.As for what to do with the Jia family after this?This Jiao Yufeng is not worried, just like what Jiao Da said, even if it is for the sake of avoiding the future, the Jia family will not ignore it.

The Jia family really didn't care about it, and they managed it quite thoroughly. Jia Daihua went to the Criminal Ministry that day, and within three days, all the details of the bandit suppression in Hubei were clarified. Yes, with the addition of some other news, the whole thing will be completely cleared up.

And there was really a big omission found here, and it was indeed related to Jiao Yufeng, and that was the wind wolf.Yes, it was the wind wolf who had kidnapped someone in Jiao's house, the wind wolf who had been chased by spies to the seaside.

I don't know how this person got away after he fled to the seaside, and he actually went all the way to Hubei, not to mention, he actually got connected with those bandits?Became the leader of these people's scouts.Because he has been arrested before, he is more familiar with the soldiers, and the armed forces in various places than the general bandits, so before the bandit suppression started, he had an intuition about the number of additional troops over there. Therefore, he immediately persuaded the bandit leader to retreat temporarily.

Waiting for the leader's son and cronies to be captured here, he judged the approximate place of detention based on his experience in escorting them all the way in the past.After several trials, it was confirmed that it was in the mine.Since it is in the mine. . .Then there is still a problem with giving the specific address?After all, he was the one who escaped from here, right? I'm familiar with it.

Of course, because of his familiarity, he knew that after escaping, there must be a lot of troops in this place, and he wanted to save people smoothly. . .Even if it succeeds, I'm afraid there will be many casualties. For a person who almost died once, he doesn't want to send himself in because of loyalty, so from the beginning, he chose a

A mission to block the aid from the south, and then with the belongings, after doing the thing that blocked the road, it completely disappeared.

And those bandits who survived, poor, didn't realize that this person was gone in the end, and they were so loyal that they didn't confess him. Dodged like this.

Hearing this, Jiao Yufeng really took a deep breath, and couldn't help but said to Jiao Da who rarely came to the countryside:

"If you say that... is this person still near the capital? If so, then my family..."

For such a person, he is not afraid of others, but he is afraid that that person will still remember the harm he did to him back then, what if he wants to take revenge in turn?In his absence, what is the use of this woman and child?If something happened, it would be a death wish.

"If you care about it, you will be chaotic, and you don't even think about it. He didn't even dare to participate in the bandit's rescue of people, and dare to continue to cause trouble? He is like this, suffered a big loss, what kind of friendship is in his heart, There are fewer retaliations and counterattacks, but how to survive and how to keep yourself is the most important thing. Not to mention that you are already an official, if you provoke you, you will be charged with murdering an official of the court. Let's hunt and kill ...he doesn't have the guts."

Jiao Da couldn't help but see Jiao Yufeng's timid face, but he also knew that it would be the same for anyone who put this matter on him, so it was rare to open up such a paragraph.But what I'm going to say next has nothing to do with this.It was a rare happy event in the family, and he was enjoying it.

"Speaking of which, I went to the various ministries with the Duke of the State this time. Listening to what they said, your reward this time will not be small. After all, this matter happened in Gyeonggi, and it involves the safety of Gyeonggi. You can respond so quickly , you can wipe out the enemy completely, which is very good for the head of the capital battalion, and also makes the officials in the capital a little bit more fond of you, so ah, this reward should be given according to the highest level. As for military achievements...boy , if my old eyes are not misreading and my brain is not confused, your promotion will be near."

Speaking of Jiao Yufeng's promotion, Jiao Da's old face really looked like it had bloomed, and the folds could be wrinkled into chrysanthemum patterns. He said with his fingers:

"Uncle doesn't think too much about it. If you can be promoted to a higher level this time, I will be satisfied. After all, you can't take the credit for it alone. It's not good for such people to be too eye-catching. But just At your age, if you come to 8, you can get to rank 40 through qualifications, and if you can mix to rank 7 before the age of [-], Erlang, our family... will really get up from now on."

Is a rank 9 official considered an official?Maybe it was before becoming an official, maybe it could be counted when you were among the low-level crowd, but when you really reached this position, you don't think so.Like Jiao Da, the official rank of 8th rank, but who cares if he walks outside?In Jia's house, level 5 is not necessarily valued, let alone his level 8, he is still so old, he has no future, and he has no possibility of upgrading to level 8, which is just a false excitement.

So, since Jiao Yufeng went to the Beijing camp and got an official rank, Jiao Da waited for Jiao Yufeng to be promoted, and his neck was almost broken.I wish I could close my eyes today, and when I opened them tomorrow, I would hear the news of my child's promotion.That's why he went to Jia Daihua so quickly when Jiao Yufeng left.The old man has also been in a wealthy family all his life, so he understands these strange things.

Up to now, he finally saw the further dawn of the family, and it was the child who fought himself out. He really has a face.Even the Duke of the Jia family, after knowing what happened this time, Jiao Yufeng rushed to the front and beheaded a few bandits, gave him a rare compliment, saying that he taught well, and he should be the one to intercede. Wu Jiaoxi invited the right person, making him lose face in the entire Jia family.

Thinking of the envious eyes of those people in the back street of Jia's house, and thinking of the embarrassment he got in Jia's house, Jiao Da became emotional, looked at Jiao Yufeng lovingly, and said:

"Erlang, uncle is counting on you, and our family is also counting on you. The brand of the official family is counting on you. Don't worry, as long as you are promising, uncle will sell his old face, and he will not let you be punished by others." Take credit for it. What's the matter, let the Jiao family... the ancestors accumulate virtue..."

After talking about it, Jiao Da was already a little choked up.

Rong Yan, with a decisive face, made Jiao Yufeng's teeth sore.Old man, you are so emotional, so excited, this. . .This urging is a bit too aggressive.Put him under a lot of pressure, okay?It is really not easy to earn such credits that can be easily picked up in Beijing camp.Is it possible that he can still be lucky all the way to the age of 30?

But he couldn't tell Jiao Da about this, because he looked forward to it, and with his gray hair, he couldn't bear to let the old man down, for fear that the old man would not be able to bear the ups and downs.So he could only nod his head and say:

"Don't worry, uncle, I will work hard."

Alas, apart from working hard, Jiao Yufeng felt that he didn't know what to say anymore.By the way, promotion?Speaking of which, will he be promoted or not?What kind of official promotion seems to have not been said yet!Hmm, is there any real reason for this?I don't know why, my heart was quite stable when I didn't know, but now I have this news. . .Jiao Yufeng suddenly became nervous.Looking at the snow outside, it seems to be filtered, and you can see the capital directly.This promotion. . .Is it directly promulgated by the Shangguan or go to the Ministry of Officials?Where did this report come from?Whether the merit is declared together or rewarded separately. . .The more I thought about the problem, the more I couldn't sit still. In the end, I was able to sleep peacefully, and the one who tossed and turned was talking about him.

Fortunately, the speed was quite fast this time, perhaps because it was nearby, and perhaps it was because, as Jiao Da said, it involved the safety of the capital, and the officials of various departments gave a special face when they were satisfied.Anyway, within a few days, the rewards have already been distributed.Right in the camp, with the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War coming hand in hand, on the school grounds, in front of everyone.A large plate of money, as well as eye-catching confessions, were distributed here.

"Jiao Dalang...the governor of the treasurer...from the 8th rank..."

From the original 9th ​​grade, directly to the 8th grade?This is directly up to two levels?level one?Whoops. . .Jiao Yufeng was a little confused by this big pie!above. . .Why are you so sweet?This is the achievement of Jiaoda's goal before the age of 30!

Really. . .Cough, cough, calm down, you must be calm, he is an eighth-rank official, so he must look like an official.Well, I still haven't received any money, so this is also important.
