Tales of Soldier - Chapter 126
[Chapter 126 (Part 1)]
“My lord, the financial starting capital of our territory is more than 700 million yuan. The total income of the territory this month is 2 billion yuan, of which 1 billion yuan is turned over to the main family. In terms of expenditure, there are 300 million yuan in wages for tenant farmers and 15 million in wages for the army. About 500 million yuan was used to purchase territorial floating vehicles and patrol boats and to replace military equipment, and the salaries of the retainers totaled 12 million yuan. Due to insufficient funds, only the public facilities and infrastructure in the capital and a very small part of the area were renovated. This department It cost about 800 million yuan, and we only have about 100 million financial funds left.” With Yuna’s words, these data also appeared in the sky.
Originally, people and retainers who had an income of 2 billion a month were very excited, because it used to be a few hundred million at most. I didn’t expect that the new lord would double the funds as soon as he arrived. But the amount of the next spending funds made them tremble, and the 1.7 billion was gone all of a sudden.
The people did not complain that Tang Long spent money indiscriminately, because Tang Long’s money was used to increase people’s income and improve infrastructure. Those retainers are even less so. They didn’t expect the lord to be willing to spend so much money on construction. They didn’t expect that the lord would buy a floating car for himself. In the past, those lords were all thinking about how to make money. It’s not like the current lord is thinking about how to improve the life below.
Tang Long is very surprised that Yuna is so stingy with money, didn’t he give her 500 billion? Seeing that Yuna can change the territory so much with just that little amount of the territory’s original funds, wouldn’t it be possible to turn this place into a metropolis if she used that 500 billion yuan? But why doesn’t she use it? However, although Tang Long thought it was strange, he also knew that Yuna had a reason for doing this, so he didn’t ask here, and he prepared to ask more clearly after the meeting was over.
After Yuna finished her report, she looked at Tang Long carefully, for fear that he would say something of 500 billion yuan. I really regret why I have to worry about those retainers. After seeing Tang Long, I directly drag him to a secret place and tell him what I think. The uneasy Yuna saw that Tang Long just nodded to herself thoughtfully, and couldn’t help but breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Tang Long also guessed that there must be some meaning to what he did.
After Yuna’s report was completed, Elsie, Ling Li, and Sally reported on their own situation, nothing more than saying where the house was demolished and rebuilt, where the re-planning was ready for reconstruction at any time, and the army was reorganized. And start effective training and other words. But these few people, without exception, said at the end of the speech: If there is a fund of 1 billion or so, these projects can be built, and the army can be replaced with better equipment to enhance its combat effectiveness.
Although Tang Long doesn’t like to think about these issues, he is not a fool either. From the words and actions of his main subordinates, Tang Long found that they want to lack funds in the territory, give up the construction of the territory halfway, and the army cannot replace it with better equipment. All of these things are due to the rule that 50% of the income from the fief should be turned over to the master. And Yuna deliberately did not use the 500 billion, I am afraid that is also the purpose.
Having figured this out, Tang Long began to secretly pay attention to the expressions of his retainers. After hearing the words of Elsie and others, most retainers showed thoughtful expressions, and only a small number of retainers were stupid. stay there thinking nothing. It seems that these retainers are not fuel-efficient lamps, so they are so sensitive.
At this time, Peng Wenfeng and Zhang Kai reported to Tang Long the situation of the formation of the police force. After he finished speaking, Zhang Kai said, “My lord, there are three retainers who have disobeyed the lord’s order to own the army privately. The fief. Under the command of the lord’s personal guards, the subordinates and others have captured them and the clan members who followed the rebellion. Now all the prisoners are being detained in the territorial police department, please judge.”
Most people don’t know the news of this incident, because Tang Long’s female soldiers moved too fast, and the few retainers were caught in a nest before they contacted their relatives and friends. As for the police officer Peng Wenfeng opened and controlled, he didn’t dare to leak it out. So after hearing the news, the retainers and people present were stunned for a moment. Anyone with brains began to think wildly: Owning an army privately should be considered a treason, right? But these retainers can have the army according to the family rules. It is only when the new master Tang Long arrives that he is not allowed to have an army. It feels like he is fighting against the master. I am afraid this is also the three retainers who dared to violate the master’s order. the reason. On the one hand, this matter is the authority of the master, and on the other hand, it is the authority of the lord. I wonder what this new lord will do?
“Judgment? It’s a little troublesome.” Tang Long said with a frown on his chin.
Zhang Kai, who lowered his head, thought to himself, “Of course it’s troublesome. Although they disobeyed your orders, lord, they already have the right to legally form an army. By depriving vassals of the right to own troops, you are challenging the lord’s family. How to deal with them, the master will definitely interfere.”
Tang Long sighed and said: “Hey, let’s fire them, they who have no ability to live will definitely hate me to the bone, and I’m afraid they will come to trouble me from time to time. Continue to lock them up, not only does it take up space in the cell, but it also increases expenses. Really Yes, why am I worrying so much? Zhang Kai, in order to save me worry and trouble, you shot me all those rebels!”
Seeing that Tang Long issued a killing order to himself with an expression as if he was saying what to eat tonight, Zhang Kai shuddered uncontrollably, but he immediately nodded and stepped back and followed the order.
The people who heard this did not feel or even a little excited. First, they had lived under the family system for a long time, and they knew very well that the lord had the absolute right to dispose of his retainers. In this place, there is no need for the master to make any excuses for his retainers to die. Second, they are living in these turbulent years, and they are used to seeing a large number of people killed and injured every year. The third thing is to relieve anger. For those retainers who may find an excuse to kill a few civilians like themselves at any time, the people would like to die. Now it’s just three retainers who are dead. What’s the big deal.
But the retainers who knew the details of the three retainers had ugly expressions on their faces, and they inevitably felt a little sad. They were worried about Tang Long’s ruthlessness, because each of the three retainers had thousands of family members, and the whole three families actually Was it destroyed by Tang Long’s casual words? Of course, this incident also made the retainers worry about the lives of their entire clan when they did bad things.
It didn’t take long for Zhang Kai, who was dressed in blood, to come back and report: “My lord, all 3,532 rebels have been executed.” The retainer who had been shocked when he saw Zhang Kai’s appearance, after hearing this number Immediately there was a strong chill in my heart. Most of the reason for this cold air came from the performance of Tang Long and those female retainers after hearing this number.
The people in the distance didn’t see anything because they were too far away, but the retainers nearby could clearly see Tang Long and his female retainers, and they looked at them with a normal expression. They never imagined that the very young protagonist and his delicate and pink-looking women could treat thousands of people at one time as if nothing had happened. Are they all cold-blooded?
Tang Long yawned and said: “Okay, let’s see how nervous you are. Isn’t it the guy who executed the rebels, those brainless idiots are not worth pity. Isn’t it? Since you have no strength, then your own Don’t be so ambitious that you want to commit a rebellion, this will not only waste time but also waste money, isn’t it good to live obediently?” The retainers shuddered again when they heard this and did not dare to answer.
Seeing that no one said anything, Tang Long waved his hand and said, “Continue to report.” The retainer who took the first task last time immediately began to report on the results. Tang Long, who was originally interested, listened to the reports of the retainers one by one, and his head became more and more dizzy, because these guys were not successful except for a few relatively simple tasks, especially those who were looking for The new sales line actually murmured for a while before saying that it could not be completed.
Tang Long, who finally waited for all the retainers to report, immediately stood up and said, “I will re-appoint the heads of various departments. Yuna is in charge of finance and business, Li Wu is in charge of administration and personnel, Ling Li is in charge of planning and intelligence, and Aier is in charge of planning and intelligence. Xi is in charge of construction and civil affairs. If there is not enough manpower, you can choose by yourself, but you have to go to Li Wu for the record. Those of you who have accepted the task last time, report to the chief of that department which department was responsible for the task last time. Jie. Si and Sally come with me, and the others will leave the meeting.” Tang Long turned around and walked into the city hall.
Yuna, the people who had been added jobs, could only look at each other, and smiled helplessly, Tang Long really went to be the shopkeeper.
Sally and Jess followed Tang Long to a certain room in the city hall. Both of them were not very talkative, so they just looked at Tang Long quietly.
Tang Long motioned them to sit down before saying, “I asked you to come because I hope you will select some people from the army to conduct battleship training. In this era, military force relies on battleships.”
“Sir, oh, my lord, the quality of the soldiers here is not bad. All the more than 40,000 people can take the battleship training course, but we don’t have any extra battleships. How can we conduct the training?” Jess said in confusion.
Tang Long nodded and said: “The battleship is not a problem, we can also buy 2 more battleships like the Meteor from Chen Kang. When the battleship does not arrive, you should use the learning machine on the Meteor to train the soldiers first. Well, Let me think about it…” Speaking of this, Tang Long thought for a while and continued: “Before the modification, a battleship like the Meteorite can hold 5,000 crew members, of which 20 are required for communication management, 10 for battleship pilots, 50 for radar monitoring, 400 fighter maintenance personnel, 20 fighter pilots, 100 cabin management personnel, 500 logistics management personnel, 2000 fire control personnel, and more than 2000 marines. It is strange that since there are so many marines, why are there no raid boats? Now, just ask him to add it when ordering with Chen Kang.”
Tang Long raised his head and said to Sally and Jess: “You are responsible for selecting the armed personnel needed by the warship from the army, and for those personnel of logistics, cabin, maintenance, and communication, you go to Li Wu to help you recruit people, and then conduct unified training. , you need to train a little more fighter pilots and combat fighters, and we will need a lot of such people when we have an aircraft carrier. Well, it’s better to train me the 40,000 territorial soldiers to become qualified warship soldiers. ”
Sally, who was thinking faster, suddenly thought of a question, and she couldn’t help but say very worriedly: “My lord, although those soldiers can be trained as battleship soldiers, the captains of battleships and officers at all levels cannot be trained. I’ve never experienced space warfare, and I’m afraid that when they go to space, they will be overwhelmed. Because some soldiers are so old, they haven’t even been to space once.”
“Haven’t been to space?! Impossible, right?” Tang Long said with wide eyes in disbelief.
Sally sighed and said, “Oh, my lord, there are no tourism companies in this place, and it is impossible for ordinary people to own spaceships. It is not very surprising that they have never been to space in their lives.”
After thinking about it, Tang Long said: “Oh, this is simple, I will buy him tens of thousands of “War” game cabins with Chen Kang later. I have played this game, which can not only train the battleship commander, but also make Soldiers who haven’t been in space can experience a virtual space environment so they don’t panic when they’re in space for the first time.”
“Well, this is a good way, by the way, my lord, our sisters… uh… I don’t know if I can… participate in the training of the battleship commander?” Jess asked Tang Long carefully.
“What’s acceptable or not? All of you must participate in commander training. Otherwise, when we have more battleships, who will be the battleship commander? You are the people I trust the most.” Tang Long said with a smile.
Although Jess was very happy when she heard Tang Long’s words, she still frowned when she thought of Tang Long’s safety issue and said, “Who will serve as the main guard of the lord? I’m not worried about the loyalty of the soldiers in the territory, because we finally want to… …”
