Chapter 1758 Life in the Last Days

Originally, Li Yin had prepared a lot of good shows for that side, but he didn't expect that they would be hooked so soon. Li Cong was also very depressed when he saw the news on the earth. This method seems to Li Cong It's still a little inappropriate. After all, if General Mo Lun didn't have a son, would he really kill a son? It would be too reckless to do so, and it would also make Li Cong lose part of his morale in the army. But fortunately, this method was successful, and the second child was still a bit too reckless in doing things, as if this matter, if you think about it carefully, there may be other ways.

Li Cong and his son were a little puzzled because of the help of this expert. Is there any power in the entire empire that they don't know? Thinking of this, both father and son feel a little uncomfortable. After all, the unknown is the most terrifying thing. If there is a war with open swords and guns, it is nothing. This unknown danger will bring great losses to people.

Li Yin replied to the message over there, telling him to continue to see what these people want to do, and he also explained to the army over there. If General Mo Lun really enters the new Beijing army, he can also bring Three thousand heavy cavalry went there, all of them belonged to some elite troops. This number must be handled properly, and the people over there are not all fools. If things go too smoothly, the people over there will also feel If you doubt it, then there is nothing to do.

Ulanara's ability to operate is still very fast. In less than a few days, the Ministry of War issued another document, which is the document for the transfer of Guan Dai Mo Lun to the Counselor of the Beijing Army. After this came out, everyone They all took another high look at Ulanara. It was easy for the queen mother to do such a thing before, but the queen mother should have lost that ability in recent years. How could she do such a thing? The thing is, people only see the potential of this huge family at this time, maybe there are many hidden forces in the family that you don't know at all? Of course, the luckiest person was General Mo Lun, who was just beaten to the ground by the Prince Regent's Palace. Immediately, a rainbow appeared under the ground. This kind of opportunity is not available to everyone. What else can I say besides saying that this guy is lucky.

The Beijing army currently has less than 200,000 people, and it is the latest army formed. This was also decided by Li Cong after discussing with the emperor Hualong. The major families in the imperial capital cannot have no military power at all. Words in own hands. These major families may find ways to do other things everywhere, which is still at a disadvantage for Li Cong. It’s better to give them some places in the Beijing Army and tell them to get them. Anyway, these old military branches can’t do anything. Five thousand chain crossbows can solve tens of thousands of them. I’m sorry they can’t do anything big Come.

The Ulanara family has invested a lot in the formation of the Beijing Army, and their entire family has a lot of strength. The total number of the Beijing Army is 500,000, and their family must be able to control more than 200,000 people. , the rest was shared by some other big nobles. Before the Ulanara clan, there were no military talents in the clan. This General Mo Lun caught their eyes. The most important thing is that this guy had a falling out with Li Cong. A son, this is not to say that he can pass by. What do people say.

General Mo Lun, who had rested at home for a while, took up his post immediately, although he was only a counselor. But in any case, it is much better than my own position in charge, and there is another thing that the two generals under General Mo Lun actually brought their own 3,000 Iron Armored Army to the Beijing Army with General Mo Lun.

The issue of this procedure was naturally taken care of by Ulanara, but General Mo Lun's actions still caused a lot of shock to the original army, and many people sympathized with General Mo Lun. But things in the army can't be messed around. If it's like this, they will take the army with them when they are transferred, then their army will have nothing to say. If this continues, the army will not be considered an army. .

"I really misjudged the person. In the past, I thought that General Mo Lun was a very good person. I didn't expect it to be such a person. He has conflicts with the prince. You should move to another place. We didn't say anything, but it's a bit wrong to take the brothers there, who doesn't know the benefits of being a soldier under the prince, can there be such a standard over there?" Many of the three thousand people are not very good Satisfied with General Mo Lun's arrangement, but it can only be said in private.

"Hey, this is also human nature. The prince is not very kind to General Mo Lun. Otherwise, he would not stand up and speak out if he made such a fuss. Who would care about us among the high-level nobles? They all care about themselves. , we just follow along honestly, but the days when we could get a hundred gold coins a year are gone forever, and when we get there, we may only be able to pay the normal salary of the imperial court. One hundred and thirty gold coins a year is much less than our current income." Another soldier who was slightly older patted the guy on the shoulder and said.

"Hehe, brother, you think things are really simple. Do you think it's a little less? Under the prince's hand, there are rewards for killing the enemy. When we were in Guangming City, we had double salaries. What about here? But There are no enemies, just wander around the imperial capital in the future. Although it is much safer, we have gradually changed from soldiers to ordinary people. The food is also very different. Look at us soldiers The current body is the meat that has been eaten in Guangming City for a year. I will give you a catty of meat every day? It would be good to eat two or three times a month. It seems that if you want to eat meat in the future, I can only figure it out on my own." A fat man said, "This kid has a very strong appetite. If he wants the braised pork from the army before, his saliva will come out. Is it right here?" Will be treated like that.

Several people around nodded, and they didn't give them all their horses when they came out. According to the regulations of the empire, it is enough for these heavy cavalrymen to have two horses. When they came out, the empire gave them two. Later, these were added by Li Cong with his own money, and the best sleeve arrow, but now there is nothing, and it went back to ten years ago overnight. Such things are really rare. The more the better. We're going backwards here.

After arriving at the base of the Beijing Army, these people became even more depressed. Damn, this is too far from the original treatment. First of all, the tents here are not so good. Didn't the army have to use new tents? No matter how you look at these things, they seem to be things used by others, and they go in one by one to smell them. Damn, this smell seems to be only available to people with beriberi. Damn, just make a bunch of these things and give them to them?

Although the number of places in the Beijing Army has come down, these big families do not have the ability to treat soldiers like Li Cong. The 500,000 troops belong to the Ulanara clan, Wuya clan, and the princes respectively. There are also several princes and dukes in the alliance, and they can all be said to be families with powerful emperors. At the beginning, they also knew that this army was like a gold swallowing beast. It was absolutely impossible for 500,000 people to pay the money given by the court. Besides, the money given by the court was very little. You are here to do this, because you have to do it yourself. Because the imperial court has to supply the Guangming City, there is no money for you here. You can solve it yourself, so the formation of the 500,000 troops will require them to spend a lot of gold coins, and the 200,000 infantry can be done quickly, the difficulty lies in these three Among the 100,000 cavalry, the heavy cavalry and the light cavalry are half on one side, so the average cost of a cavalry is not low. It is not difficult to ask them to spend hundreds of millions of gold coins, but the maintenance costs in the future will cost money, so these people start to be frugal in other aspects, and the quality of life will naturally begin to decline up.

General Mo Lun also frowned when he looked at the situation here. It is nonsense that such an army wants to see Li Cong's army contend. Just look at these soldiers. About half of the regular ones come in, and the rest are ordinary people who can't get along and want to come in to make a living. They don't have any sense of belonging to the army. Many people know that if these people go to the battlefield, they will definitely be The first batch of people who wanted to escape didn't recognize themselves as soldiers at all in their bones.

But now that we’ve arrived here, we can’t go back. It would be even more contemptible to be like this. General Mo Lun arranged for his men to go in. Although these tents are not very good, they are still tents. It’s a good place if you don’t ask people to go outside. Although many people don’t want to, they saw that General Mo Lun had already entered, and the general didn’t say anything. What’s wrong with us people? I know that my life may be very bad in the future. It is basically impossible to get along well in the army without the regent.

Master Yunpeng brought a lot of good wine and food to work in the army at noon, which made the soldiers who came over feel a little relieved. Don't close the others, just have a good meal at noon today. Master Peng does things according to the ideas of the nobles. In fact, these soldiers don't need those expensive and good things to eat. For them, eating meat in large pieces and drinking in large bowls is enough. The young master spent tens of thousands of gold coins from the big hotel to get delicious food for these three thousand people, but what he didn't know was that if he bought some pork casually and let the cooks in the army make it, it would cost tens of thousands of dollars. Gold coins can feed them for a month. If these soldiers were allowed to choose, they would rather choose the latter.

"I really didn't expect that the general is really powerful. I thought the general would bring dozens of soldiers. I didn't expect so many soldiers to be so loyal to the general. I really admire the general. Come on. Let’s go together.” In the tent in the room, Yunpeng and Mo Lun also started to drink, and the two of them are now friends, so they talked casually, but Mo Lun The general is still a little cautious, after all, he is a counselor from the fifth rank. Although this young master Yunpeng has no official position, he can make many people of the second rank, third rank and even the first rank honest and obedient. His status in the imperial capital is higher than that of some The princes and dukes in the back are much more powerful, how can I compare with others?

"Oh, I'm really ashamed to say it. This man's heart is deep in his stomach. No one knows what he thinks. Before, I thought that these brothers under me all made their fortunes with me, and they will definitely follow me in the future. Yes, no matter where I go, I will follow me. I feel that we are all lifelong friends, but now. This is impossible, and these things can only be viewed honestly. It's too simple, so few people were brought here this time, it really made Master Yunpeng laugh." General Mo Lun said with some embarrassment, he also knew that he was not the one who was attracted to him, but the ones under his command Centaur. I haven't brought anything now, and I feel a little embarrassed.

"Don't say that. You are right in saying that people's hearts are separated from their belly. Li Cong knows better than you about buying people's hearts. Our family also had a lot of troops back then. The camp is all ours, what a sight it is, don't we treat Situ's family the same as now, what we have now, we have nothing left. If that damned Situ Sheng hadn't been taken care of by our old lady , how could that guy become a general, now, this kid doesn’t know what our family does, and all of them have already arrived at Li Cong’s side.” Speaking of such things, the man became even more depressed Well, things like this are the biggest joke in the entire imperial capital. Others can't keep up with their family. One-third of the family's income was used to form this army, but in the end it was given to others. Yunpeng was so angry when he said this, he went down after a sip of wine Oh, completely forgot that my drinking capacity is not that good. But at the moment, it seems that I don't care about those things.

I know very well about General Situ Sheng Mo Lun. I know that this person has the position of today's general not only because of the queen mother's promotion. This guy was also very decent in command when he was in Guangming City. I have seen that Situ Sheng is not as unbearable as Yunpeng said. This must have brought personal subjective intentions, just like himself. Those former colleagues would probably say the same thing about themselves now.

The more the two chatted, the more speculative they became. In this round of psychological tactics, ten Mo Lun would not be Yunpeng's opponent, but when it comes to drinking, ten Yunpeng would not necessarily be Mo Lun's opponent. When he was in the city, General Mo Lun was a well-known drinker. This guy drank from jar to jar, and he would never get drunk at all, so Yunpeng could only continue to drink. It's a loss, General Mo Lun looked at this guy as if he talked more and more because of drinking, maybe it would help his affairs, so he wanted to continue drinking sour right now, maybe there would be more news.

Just now, General Mo Lun was afraid of drinking too much, but now he has no such thoughts. It can be seen that Master Yunpeng is drinking more and more, mainly because Master Yunpeng's seat at home is not very secure recently. Yes, this guy's cousin brought a lot of support. Although the old lady still supports me, many people in the family are already supporting that kid. Hmph, isn't it just a group of so-called high-level people? , These people are all capable people, but there are only a few hundred people, what big things can be done, can some things be solved by assassination?

Although he drank more and more alcohol, in the end General Mo Lun didn't get the news he wanted. Who is this kid? Even if he drank too much, he didn't talk casually. The boy sent this guy back. General Mo Lun looked at the young master Yunpeng who was going away, and felt that things were not that simple. He hadn't gained the trust of this guy, otherwise this guy would definitely do those things I told myself, but after drinking so much, I still didn't say it.

General Mo Lun's barracks is about 20 miles away from the imperial capital, and when he arrived at the imperial capital after walking for more than an hour, Master Yunpeng was a little sober from his wine. Although it can't be said that it is the same as usual, it is no problem to see people. , Now I regretted it again, why did I drink so much? I was not a drinker in the past, even if I drank in moderation, I didn’t expect to drink so much with Mo Lun this time Maybe in the past, all I met were scheming people, but when I met a scheming guy like General Mo Lun, I didn't even have any defenses in my heart.

"Hmph, you said you were going out to do business for the family. I really didn't expect it. After drinking like this, I really don't know what you can do for the family." Before Master Yunpeng got out of the car, he heard a The voice that I hate very much, this is my little cousin, who has not been at home since he was a child, but went out to learn martial arts somewhere, and now he is back, bringing back a group of masters. It is more powerful than those offerings at home, and now it is my biggest competitor.

Master Yunpeng raised his head and took a look. This kid seems to be going out. This kid can be said to be a fool in his head. It is good to have such an opponent. No matter what, the kid's emotions are all expressed on his face. On the above, I don't need to bother to guess. But the strength of this kid's subordinates really surprised him, let's not talk about others. It is this kid's own ability, which is also very powerful. On the day this kid just came back, he spoke rudely to himself, and the two bodyguards around him were going to go up and teach this kid. What was the result? The result is that I take two bodyguards who can be ranked in the imperial capital, and now they are living under the loess, and the worship at home is not the boy's opponent, even the few masters around the queen mother can follow the boy to a tie. I really don't know where this kid got all his skills.

"Hmph, it's not up to you to intervene in what I'm going to do. When I came back, I had a lot of beautiful words, such as revitalizing the family, why doesn't it seem that you haven't made any movement recently? Who is the two of us?" Are you talking big?" Yunpeng was not such an easily angered person in the past, but he drank a lot of wine today, and he felt very uncomfortable when he saw that this younger brother didn't respect him at all. If I didn't say a few words, I would feel uncomfortable.

This cousin of Yunpeng's face was a bit ugly when he heard Yunpeng say that. It is true that compared with his cousin, he only showed a huge strength, but there are not many things he can really do, especially It was he who said at the beginning that he would use his own people to monitor the Prince Regent's Mansion, but now half a month has passed, and he has not gotten any news. On the contrary, the few people who went in seemed to have no news. This guy estimated that all his subordinates might be finished.

On the surface, the Prince Regent’s Mansion has only a few guards, but in the dark, there are more than just a few guards. Besides, Li Cong used modern security methods to make the entire palace look like an iron bucket. If idlers want to go in, that’s Absolutely impossible. It's better for these people to die, otherwise they would have died as many times as they have in the past.

"Just like what you said, I don't need you to take care of what I do. What did you say that you can bring tens of thousands of tiger and wolf masters to the family? Now there are only 3,000 people. What are you going to eat?" This little cousin didn't show any sympathy when he said it, and many people in the family were very disappointed. The cost of building an army was really too high, and they didn't want to go this way at all. On the road, what they hope is to dig an army from Li Cong. Yunpeng can only say that these people are too blind. These people all came from Li Cong. Are you loyal? Those who started from scratch can be loyal to themselves. This loyalty is all bought with money or their own hearts. The money that the family gave me is almost spent. This little cousin, the clothes cost tens of thousands of gold coins. These people have spent a lot of money since they entered the door. It is almost the same as the army they formed. You must know that there are hundreds of thousands of people in the army Well, there are hundreds of people in this gate, and they are not afraid of getting angry if they eat so much fish and meat every day.

"I can bring 3,000 people, and the owner is already very satisfied. Besides, the army will be formed soon. By then, we will be able to command an army of 500,000. I think that even 500,000 pigs may need He is more useful than the people under you. If you want to compete with me for that seat, I think you should forget it. After you come back, you won’t understand your identity. It’s better to be honest. This cousin’s background is not as good as Yun’s. For Master Peng, the most annoying thing is to talk about the identity of the family. Every time he says that this guy should be ranked according to his strength, but every time he talks about this issue, he can't control it.

The little cousin snorted coldly and went out. From his point of view, this cousin of his just knows how to use his brain, at most he is at the level of a master, and he has no courage to do anything. Knowing what the old lady likes about this guy, why can't she be much better than this guy if she were herself? But these things can only be kept in his stomach, and he can't say them out. Otherwise, the old lady will be the first to kill him. He also knows that as long as the old lady is in power for one day, this Ula Nala's power cannot be transferred to that seat.

After the little cousin left the house, the guy slapped the person behind him. "Have you found out about this matter? Is it a false surrender over there?" The guy said anxiously. If there is a false surrender over there, his chance has come. Absolutely not alive, keeping such a rotten guy is a big burden for anyone. So I want to get rid of it, but I don't know if the rules I follow can be matched.

"This matter is very clear after a small investigation. It is that General Mo Lun who wants to join us. This guy is now at the end of his rope. Speaking of which, our people passed by at that time. Unfortunately, he is faster than us. , Master Yunpeng has been paying attention to this matter all the time, we intervene temporarily, and the resources in all aspects are not as good as Master Yunpeng's, especially the Ministry of War, our power is far behind. " Yun Peng's little cousin Yun Jing's follower said. This is a manager assigned to him by his family, and he knows everything about the imperial capital very well.

"Hmph, it's just a bullshit general, what's so great about it, as long as our people use knives, they will definitely be many times stronger than theirs. By the way, how many people have our people contacted to help me? "Yunjing said arrogantly. This guy has never lived in the imperial capital since he was a child, and he doesn't understand that sometimes force is not the solution to problems. In politics, force can be said to be the lowest level of fighting, but he is followed by a steward. God, he has already suffered a lot. This little master Yunjing's hands are black, and he was beaten in a few days... If this continues like this, he will probably be beaten to death, so if you want to say something and you will be beaten again, it is better not to say it good.

"Several elders in the family have lost confidence in Yunpeng, but they have not made a clear statement. After all, the Queen Mother is very optimistic about Young Master Yunpeng. As long as the Queen Mother is there for a day, the position of the heir will be moved. Impossible, now we are taking two routes with Master Yunpeng, he is taking the route of building a regular army, we are taking the route of masters, no matter which one it is, as long as the family's force is firmly in control If it is in our hands, you are the winner." The steward said after a moment of consideration, if he said that the army is the orthodox side, he would probably have to be beaten, the young master can rely on the people of his division the most , if those people are not as useful as the army, who will be beaten if they are not beaten?

"Hmph, Yunpeng thinks that the expansion of the army will make him eligible to fight against me. I think it's wishful thinking." After saying this, Yunjing got on his horse and took his senior brothers away. They are going to meet today He is also an important person, there is not so much time to waste here, there are still two months to go to the power meeting within their family, and the participants are all high-level members of the family. Support is an opportunity for yourself to gain greater power.

What is different from him is that he is still looking for help from others, but Yunpeng has already found the weakness of this guy. Although the brothers he brought are very capable, but the expenses of these people are absolutely Quite a few, each of the 30 or so senior brothers in the city can spend millions of gold coins. In the two months since they came back, three million gold coins have already gone in. You must know that three million gold coins can How many troops to train? Yunpeng is ready to talk about this issue at the meeting. He only used 200 million gold coins to build an army, and if it weren't for his original vision, the family would have lost a lot of money. These people spend so much money just like the uncle every day. Although they have great strength, to be honest, these people really don't make any substantial contribution to their family.

Earth, South American military base

Li Cong has been back for about two months. During these two months, Li Cong has traveled almost all over his own territory. It can be seen that the lives of the people within his empire are still living Very good, mainly because of the advancement of science and technology, food is already a kind of welfare, and everyone can receive part of the food from the government as their own rations by relying on their own identity certificates. If the problem is solved, then the remaining things will be easier to solve. Many people will have a lot of extra money every month to do some things they want to do.

On the issue of housing, Li Cong has built a large number of low-rent housing, and the rent is only equivalent to one-tenth of the income of these people. For some affordable housing. Li Cong still has not approved large-scale construction, and it is not very realistic for one person to spend hundreds of thousands, but low-rent housing is affordable for anyone.

Li Cong's last stop was the South American region as a war zone. When Li Cong returned to this place again, he received a very important news. The people inside the US-European alliance began to rebel against the government's rule. The large-scale rebellion can be regarded as the biggest turmoil in the entire US-European alliance. If it works properly, it may be an opportunity for Li Cong to quickly end the game here.

The cause of the matter happened in a medium-sized city. The current US-European alliance is not the same as before. It is not surprising to say that this is the end of the world. Other entertainment equipment in the entire country has already stopped operating, and the entire country is serving the military. , all resources are being re-divided, and the daily life of ordinary people in the area is very boring. They may endure it because of the high-pressure policy in a short period of time, but if it takes a long time, this resistance is a must. These people are not wooden, and they also need their own lives.

Tang Te is already thirty-five years old this year. In the past, this kid was the owner of a supermarket, but now this guy is called unemployed. This country used to have hundreds of millions of people. Now, except for the people in the government and the army All people except those who are employed are called unemployed. Because their work will not give them any salary at all. They are like a group of puppets. They are escorted to their workplaces by a large number of troops every day. There will be any human rights, and they don't know how to criticize other people's human rights in the past. Why are there no human rights at all in our own country?

It's 5:30 in the morning. Tang Te looked at the sky outside which had not yet been brightened. He knew that today's work would start now. Otherwise, if someone from the National Guard came here later, they would find him If he was lazy, he would give himself two gun butts when he came over. He never wanted to feel what it felt like to hit him with that thing for the rest of his life, and there were four or five people living with him. They are all men, because women have been gathered together, and now women are all resources, the era of free love is gone forever, want to have a woman? No problem, go to the battlefield, go to the battlefield, as long as you can kill a soldier of the Li Tang Empire, then you can move to the city to live after you come back. Now the whole country is like this, as long as you contribute to the country, you can enjoy it, but those who are greedy for life and afraid of death and don't want to go to the front line, just work hard in this hell.

After going out, Tang Te took a look at the small building not far away. It used to be his supermarket there. He used to be a middle-class person here. How could he have assets worth hundreds of thousands of dollars? Every morning, I can take a rest. I don’t need to get up so early. There are several shop assistants who help me with my work. But from the day when the special bill started, I have nothing, and everything I own has been turned over to the state. Now, I have become an unemployed person. Of course, in order to have enough food, I still have to work. This is to work in the military industry outside the city.

When I walked less than ten meters, an old man came out from another door. This is my neighbor. There are six or seven people in this room. A dozen of them form a working group. They must take good care of their partners every day. If someone in my family ran out, then I'm sorry, you are all guilty, and you will all be punished. Tang Te's left hand is missing a finger, that is, a cohabitant ran out in the past, Now they all feel that looking at their friends is more important than their own lives, and they don't want to have any missing parts on their bodies.

Tang Te can be regarded as the team leader among them. There are several groups of people on the road. They are considered as a small group. Tang Te counted these people and they are basically correct. Then he took out a large piece of bread in his pocket , each person was given one piece, without any seasoning or anything like that, the time before sitting in their spacious living room and eating breakfast slowly is gone, now they have to go to the factory ten miles away, There is only half an hour on the way. If you are late, don’t expect to be able to eat enough food at noon. Food is already very scarce now, because the government will not use hard currency to give Li Tang The empire buys grain, so they have to grow it themselves. They haven't grown grain for more than ten years. Although it's not a technical job, it seems to be a lot late to do it now.

Each person has a bottle of water and a piece of bread. This is their breakfast. In such a cold morning, there is no hot water at all. The bottle of water that Tang Te drank seemed to be frozen. He didn't want to drink it at all, but Eating such poor-quality bread, if there is no liquid, it will probably get stuck in my neck. Now I can only think about when I can go to the factory. At least it will be very warm there. The cotton-padded clothes are already riddled with holes, but there is no intention of distributing clothes to them. In this cold winter, the whole city seems to have no heating. No, it is very warm in the city center. It is the place where some soldiers’ families live, and the government’s civil servants are there. Of course, there are also many rich people. The rich people hand over everything to the government, and what they get in return is their comfortable life in the future. Although It can't be compared with when he was a rich man before, but compared with Tang Te and the others, it is already a sky and a world.

Half an hour passed quickly, and they had already walked out of the city. In the past, their country was called a country on the wheels of cars, and they would drive over no matter how close they were, but now, the streets Except for military vehicles and police vehicles, there are no other vehicles on board. If you want to ride in a vehicle, you can only use it as a prison vehicle. The special law stipulates that ordinary people cannot drive. (To be continued.
