Lu Jiude slandered Liu Jun for raiding the surrendered Fifth Battalion of the Gezuo in order to seize the merits. This was a very serious attack. Liu Jun would never allow such a shit to be placed on his head.︾,

Yehe Camp.

"Marty, the battle was successful." Director Wang Kun was very energetic. He was ordered to direct Yunyang Town. As a result, he received 10,000 taels of silver as soon as he arrived in Yunyang. Then he followed the army to fight, and he was very relaxed on a boat along the way. Then he followed Liu Jun to win the Yehe victory, annihilated the fifth camp of Gezuo in one fell swoop, captured and killed five thieves, and captured tens of thousands of prisoners.

What a merit this is.

Lu Weining said, "The Marquis is good at commanding, and the soldiers fought bravely to kill the thieves, and finally won a great victory. I am very happy."

The two eunuchs performed well in this battle, following Liu Jun, and even stayed behind during this pursuit, and rode on horseback closely behind. During the battle to defeat the enemy, the two eunuchs even fired more than a dozen guns with hand guns, and they all personally killed several bandits who were unable to escape.

The eunuchs are also fame and fame. Liu Jun thinks it is great to use these two eunuchs to deal with Lu Jiude.

Liu Jun smiled and praised the bravery of the two eunuchs, saying that they would personally report their performance and results of the battle to the emperor. Then Liu Jun said, "This time we defeated the five thieves and gained a lot. The war horses alone seized more than 3,000 intact horses, and thousands of mules and horses. In addition, some gold, silver, jewelry, etc. were seized."

"The initial estimate is that the value is at least 500,000 taels." Liu Jun raised his eyebrows and smiled at the eunuchs.

When the two eunuchs heard such a large amount of spoils, they immediately danced.

"That's what I plan to do about these spoils. I will first raise 100,000 taels of silver and submit it to the capital to offer it to His Majesty. What do you think?"

"Okay, ought." The two eunuchs didn't dare to say that they could not. They had just come out of the capital and knew that the silver would not be given in vain. The emperor would definitely be very happy to receive the 100,000 taels of silver.

"In addition, the soldiers have worked hard in their bloody battles and there are still many casualties. We have to take out some as rewards and pensions. What do you guys think?"

"Okay, ought." Although it hurts, the two eunuchs are still reasonable.

Liu Jun saw their reaction and smiled, "I am going to give Eunuch Cao and Eunuch Wang each ten thousand taels."

"Of course, should." At this time, the two of them were already smiling a little reluctantly.

"Apart from these, many of the remaining ones are grain, cloth, calligraphy, painting, jewelry, horses, weapons, etc., which also take time to cash out. For the time being, I can only give you five thousand taels each. What do you think?"

When Wang Kun and Lu Weining heard that there were only 5,000 taels, they were not so happy. After all, they had heard that they were worth 500,000 trophys, but now they only got 5,000.

"Actually, I should have taken more, but the two of you don't know. I reportedly said that the spoils were worth 500,000, but later I found out that the thieves had taken 200,000 from them and gave them to Lu Jiude. After Lu Jiude received this gift, he believed that the five thieves of Ge Zuo were going to surrender, and transferred all the soldiers intercepted in the east back to Luzhen Pass, which almost broke out."

When the two eunuchs heard that Lu Jiude and each of them took a gift of 200,000 taels of silver, their faces were purple. They were envious and jealous. They won a big victory, but they could only get five thousand. Then Lu Jiude died, but he did nothing but got two hundred thousand.

"It's outrageous!"

Seeing that the two of them were indeed furious, Liu Jun laughed in his heart and continued, "Originally, if Eunuch Lu was trying to lure the thief to accept the gift, it would be fine, and he would just hand it over to the court again. But now, as far as I know, Eunuch Lu not only concealed the 200,000 taels of bribes he received, but even wanted to impeach us."

"Why should we impeach, why?" Wang Kun said angrily.

"Eunuch Lu said that he had already successfully surrendered the Five Gates of the Five Gates, and asked the bandits to lead the team out of the mountains to surrender. He said that in order to seize the merits, we led our troops to raid the Fifth Gates of the Five Gates of the Five Gates of the Five Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth Gates of the Fifth

"He dares to turn black and white!"

"He has done this and sent people to the second governor Mei Li to sue us. At this moment, there is still a quick horse who is rushing to the capital with his impeachment memorial."

Lu Weining slapped the table with anger, "How dare the old dog do this? He accepted bribes and opened the net, causing the thief to flee, which almost failed to defeat the meeting. Fortunately, the marquis and us fought desperately and fought to the death to annihilate the bandits. The old dog actually dared to fight back and accused us. I want to fight with him."

"Yes, fight!" Wang Kun was also very angry. He was frustrated, and Lu Jiude took away 200,000 gifts of silver.

"I heard that Lu Jiude has a wide connection in the capital. I am afraid that when His Majesty mistakenly listened to his words, we will not only lose our contribution, but may also be punished. At that time, our spoils will probably be taken away by Lu Jiude. While the things are still in our hands, I will take over. I will give you the ones from the two father-in-laws immediately."

"No, this time I must have fought with the old dog. The old dog has something to do in the capital, and there is no one behind our family. Let's write a letter to Eunuch Cao immediately!"

Lu Weining also said, "I will write a letter to Eunuch Wang."

"If you don't kill this old dog, our family will not be named Wang in the future!"

Liu Jun hurriedly said, "It would be great if the two father-in-laws can persuade Eunuch Cao and Eunuch Wang to help clarify and prove us in front of His Majesty. In this way, I don't want that. I will give it to the two father-in-laws together, each of which is 5,000 taels, even if it is used to clear the relationship and prepare for it."

"Oh, how can this work?"

"You two father-in-law don't have to be polite to me. As long as you can help clarify the matter, we will take Lu Jiude and let him spit out the gift he swallowed. We will divide it up later."

"Then let's just say that." As soon as he heard the words "200,000 taels", both eunuchs could not move their legs.

"Don't worry, Old Dog Lu overestimated his ability to fight us. This time, he not only wanted to let him spit out the swallowed one, but also let him die without a burial place."

After the two of them finished speaking, they both hurried back to write letters to their supporters in Beijing, Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen.

Liu Jun sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, savored it slowly, took out some silver for the two eunuchs, and immediately drove them to bite Lu Jiude. He didn't even have to come forward, they would go up and bite him.

Although Liu Jun had a lot of definite evidence in his hands, he, a military minister who led the army, bit a bit a courtier and an eunuch in the inner court, would lose points even if he won. He would not plan to come forward by himself now and let the eunuchs bite by themselves.

After a while, Liu Jun called his personal soldiers, "Please ask the generals and the soldiers from all battalions to come and discuss matters."

The generals and the participating soldiers arrived together, and it was already dark. A large candle was lit in the central army's tent.

There were two rows of tables in the big tent, simple long tables made temporarily, and simple long benches. The school staff were arranged on both sides, and there were large plates of horse meat on the table, which were all slaughtered and injured horses. There would be no waste on the battlefield. After the injured horses were slaughtered, the large pieces became a dinner for the entire army.

"Why are the two father-in-laws not here?" someone asked.

"They have something to do, and the military supervisor is not here today. Let us brothers of the Nine-Headed Birds have dinner together. Although it was after the great victory, they are still on the battlefield. According to the rules of the army, no drinking is allowed. Everyone should use tea instead of wine, just take it easy." Liu Jun said with a smile.

"It's a great victory, and it's a pleasure to not drink. The marquis is in good command and has the right command to seize the power in the time of judgment. He leads us to this great victory."

Liu Jun stood on the head and said with a smile. "This victory is about merit. If you don't take it that night, it's the first merit. They discovered in time that the bandits were planning to escape, and they kept staring at the bandits."

"Secondly, Feng Sheng's cavalry battalion and Deng Yuan's teaching battalion also performed outstandingly. After receiving the order, they galloped around the bandits and successfully blocked the enemy's escape. They used two battalions of troops to block the enemy's escape, and defeated the bandits' front army. Later, they also chased and defeated the fleeing bandits, drawing a perfect stroke for our victory."

"Of course, the other battalions also performed outstandingly. Later, the military achievements of this battle in Huaihei will be summarized, and any merits will be rewarded."

"Now, I will use tea instead of wine, so I will give you a cup first."

"Congratulations!"

The nine-headed birds raised their glasses happily. Although there was tea in the cup, they also drank very happily.

This time, the fifth camp of Gezuo was annihilated and a great achievement was achieved. It was inevitable that everyone would be promoted. As usual, they would definitely get a large amount of rewards. There was no reason to be unhappy. Not to mention, a large amount of spoils were seized this time, including more than 5,000 intact war horses. The wealth that Gezuo Battalion had saved over the years was all the nine-headed birds.

Before, the cavalry battalion was limited by the lack of war horses, so it only had two thousand generals. Now that there were war horses, Feng Sheng, the chief general of the cavalry battalion, had his first plan to fully marshal his cavalry battalion.

"No one should rob me Lao Feng. These war horses are all from our cavalry battalion."

However, not many people bought his words. Deng Yuan from the teaching camp immediately jumped out and shouted, "Why don't you say that the credit for this time is yours? The war horses are all yours, more than 5,000 war horses, aren't you afraid of slaughtering? Our teaching camp requires a thousand war horses, but if you don't want more, you just need a thousand."

The other battalions all patrol the table, you want one thousand, he wants eight hundred, and that one also needs five hundred, and it is a mess.

Feng Sheng was anxious. He planned to fill up the troupe. If one more cavalry was added, each with two cavalry would have to be two thousand war horses. If everyone wanted it, these five thousand would not be enough.

"You, Zhang Guodong, you are from the baggage camp. What kind of war horses do you want? Didn't you seize thousands of mules? You can't just lead as many mules as you want? Come and join in the fun."

Zhang Donggou was unhappy, "Why can't our baggage battalion ask for war horses? I plan to form a cavalry department in the battalion to be responsible for reconnaissance, escort and contact."

"We don't charge at night to expand."

Looking at the messy look, Liu Jun shook his head and patted the table, "Don't fight, these war horses are given priority to satisfy the full troop of the cavalry battalion. Draw two thousand horses to the cavalry battalion, and add another five hundred horses. This time they also lost some horses."

"The remaining three thousand war horses were drawn, two thousand were drawn for the teaching battalion, and the other one thousand were not collected at night, and the remaining ones were drawn for the officers of each battalion to serve as mounts."

No one has any objection to this result. Even if the war horses were divided, thousands of mules were quickly divided, most of which were given to the baggage battalion, and each infantry battalion was also divided into a batch of mules, which were used as artillery in their battalion.

As for other spoils, swords, guns, bows, arrows, armor, etc., they are mostly rags that nine-headed birds look down on. Liu Jun plans to transport these things back to Hubei and sell them to gentry and merchants everywhere, which are considered waste recycling.

As for other gold, silver and treasures, there are a lot of them. This is the wealth accumulated by Ge Zuowu's rebellion for many years. If it is fully cashed in, it will probably be as much as one million. Liu Jun plans to discount 100,000 taels to Chongzhen, and then the eunuchs and officials in the capital will also handle the matters, and add it to Wang Kun, Lu Weining and others, as well as to Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng and others, and these will also be prepared to give 100,000 taels to these.

The rest are all considered the military expenses of the Nine-Headed Bird.

He had to give away 200,000 taels at once, not that Liu Jun is rich and generous now. But after passing Zhu Dadian and Lu Jiude now, Liu Jun knew that he was indeed crawling a little faster. Many people were already a little jealous and jealous. When there was a conflict of interest, they would immediately jump out and bite it.

If the money can be used to solve this problem, Liu Jun would be willing to do so. He knew that this was actually a cost, a necessary cost. The money I gave out before, especially the money I gave to Chongzhen, was rewarded very well.

Bribery can be given not only to eunuchs, but also to greedy ministers in the court, and even those who seem to be extremely loyal and upright. Of course, bribery can also be given to the emperor.

Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng quickly arrived at Yehe Camp with hundreds of cavalry.

After listening to Liu Jun's report on this battle and personally interrogating several bandits, proving that the five thieves in the Ghou Zuo bribed Lu Jiude before to deceive him into winning his trust. He made a fuss and almost fled to break through. Fortunately, Liu Jun intercepted him in time. Afterwards, Lu Jiude actually bit back.

"It's really outrageous!" Mei Zhihuan was furious.

"Call Lu Jiude, Shi Kefa and others immediately!" Mei Zhihuan was angry, "I want to hear what explanation he has in the face of these evidence!"

After receiving Mei Zhihuan's order, Shi Kefa, Lu Jiude, Mou Wenshou, Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo and other officials from Jiangbei came.

As soon as they arrived, Mei Zhihuan immediately brought the witness up and asked him to confront Lu Jiude in public. The evidence was as strong as a mountain. In the end, Lu Jiude was still stubborn and kept saying that Liu Jun had robbed merit and killed surrender. Mei Zhihuan was so angry that she invited Shangfang's sword, took him down, and imprisoned him.

When Shi Kefa faced Mei Zhihuan's inquiry, he said he had no idea in advance.

Mei Zhihuan then sent someone to capture Lu Jiude's men and search his residence. Sure enough, they found the items given to Lu Jiude by the bandits, boxes of gold bars and silver ingots, and many jewelry worth 140,000 taels.

"After bribes of 200,000 taels, and there is still something to check." Facing the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, Shi Kefa, Mou Wenshou and others had nothing to say. They were indeed preparing to surrender the bandits, but they didn't know that Lu Jiude actually accepted bribes of 200,000 taels of bandits.

Soon, the people who were chasing the radish and brought mud to find out many illegal evidences of Lu Jiude's embezzlement and bribery. They also found a large amount of money and stolen goods from his residence in Fengyang, including as much as 600,000 taels of property, including a large number of land deeds, houses and shops.

"Say it immediately." Mei Zhihuan said coldly, facing these reports.ps: It's mid-month again, and the book has been on the shelves for one month, and the subscriptions have been growing. Thank you for your support. Some brothers will support it! (To be continued...)
