military camp.

"The military camp opened a gambling market. Maybe it has never been done before, but these soldiers are all exhausted and must not have been training carefully."

Luo Fengtang frowned.

Originally, he planned to select a group of elite soldiers from these soldiers to serve as mid-level generals of the new army.

But looking at it now, not many people can use these soldiers.

"We can't completely blame them for this..."

"The soldiers' military pay was deducted layer by layer. When they got it into their hands, only 30% of it was sufficient."

Li Rui said.

"Thirty percent...that much deduction?"

Luo Fengtang said in surprise.

From north to south, those soldiers in Da Qi who were inherited from the Taizu era were severely underpaid, but those who served as soldiers in a down-to-earth manner could get at least 50%.

Fifty percent of military pay can barely support a family.

Those generals who deducted military pay, if they had any sense, were also afraid that the soldiers would mutiny and make a big fuss, so they always let the soldiers take a breather and find a way to survive.

"You can't survive with 30% of the military pay." Luo Fengtang's face was gloomy.

Of course, military pay varies from place to place, which is related to local food prices.

"The military pay was deducted, but Marshal Yang asked the soldiers to go to the shops in the city to collect monthly fees and give part of them to the soldiers, so that they can support themselves."

Li Rui said.

"What a great trick, charging twice."

Luo Fengtang looked calm.

General Yang Huchen is quite talented and creative when it comes to making money.

The soldiers' military pay was deducted once, and this was the first time they earned money.

And then you can earn another amount by collecting monthly protection fees.

"Not only that, Marshal Yang also works as a guarantee for people. When businessmen do business, and there are many transactions in the city, such as house sales, they can take the contract and get it stamped by Marshal Yang."

"With Marshal Yang's seal, no one dares to break the contract."

"Dashuai Yang just happens to get the commission."

Li Rui said.

"He shouldn't be a soldier, he should be a businessman."

Luo Fengtang said.

"Sir, I think so too. Marshal Yang has a lot of ideas to make money, but he is really not good at leading troops. Once he led troops to suppress bandits, and more than a hundred bandits defeated thousands of people."

Li Ruili sighed.

"Is it an act or is it real?"

Luo Fengtang raised his eyebrows and said.

"I know what your Excellency suspects."

"Marshuai Yang has indeed colluded with some bandits. Some of the bandits are even former officers and soldiers in disguise. The Kuangbao Gang of Kuangbao Mountain is one of them."

"But, that time, Marshal Yang was really not acting, because the bandits were the Red Eyebrow Gang. They were real bandits, and they were mortal enemies of the officers and soldiers."

Li Rui said.

"I have heard of the Red Eyebrow Gang and know some of their origins. They are hiding in the Shiwan Mountains and there are thousands of them. The imperial court does not have the extra power to exterminate them." Luo Fengtang said.

"They all came from poor backgrounds. At first they just wanted to survive and nothing else. It was Marshal Yang and the others who insisted on annihilating them, and they ended up being defeated." Li Ruili said.

"Yang Huchen and Wan Yiren jointly reported their merits to the imperial court. They defeated the red-browed thieves and were rewarded by the imperial court."

Luo Fengtang had read Yang Huchen's resume before coming here, and was quite familiar with his promotion process.

"The imperial court was deceived... The truth is that Red Eyebrows defeated Marshal Yang, but they did not choose to cause rebellion. Instead, they hid in the mountains and recruited troops from time to time."

Li Rui said.

"Let's not talk about the red eyebrows in advance. After all, the time is coming."

"Xiao Mo, let's go and meet the trap prepared by Yang Huchen."

After Luo Fengtang said that, he stepped outside.

Why are you taking the initiative to throw yourself into a trap?

Li Ruili was anxious, but he couldn't stop it.

Luo Fengtang decided what he, a little deputy commander, could do.

He could only choose to believe Luo Fengtang.

After Luo Fengtang and Mo Anbai left the meeting hall, the training field in front was empty.

But Luo Fengtang narrowed his eyes and walked slowly towards the training ground.

After walking for a while, when he arrived at a spot in the middle of the training ground, his feet suddenly became empty and his whole body rose rapidly.

A group of men in black appeared around.

And his body has been trapped in a white silk mesh.

This silk mesh does not seem dense enough, and the woven silk threads are thinner than fingers, but they are extremely tough.

The man in black quickly changed his position, and with one operation, the wire mesh surrounded Luo Fengtang from front to back, left and right.

"Luo Fengtang, you have no way out!"

Laughter sounded from nearby. The speaker did not appear, but his tone was mocking.

"Who are you? At this time? Aren't you still showing up? Don't you have the guts to show up?"

Luo Fengtang tried to cut with a dagger, but could not cut through the mesh.

I tried to break free using my inner strength, but the wire mesh got stuck deeper and deeper.

"We Skynet killers are hiding in the dark, why do we show up?"

The voice came again, but that person was particularly cunning. No matter what words Luo Fengtang said, the person did not appear, but remained hidden.

On the other side, Mo Anbai and Li Ruili were also targeted by many soldiers with bows and arrows. They stood still and did not dare to move.

No matter how high your martial arts skills are, it will be difficult to escape completely from the arrow net. There must always be an opportunity or a small chance to escape.

But now they didn't see the opportunity, they could only watch as Luo Fengtang was caught in the big nets up and down, front, back, left and right. These nets were obviously made of special structures. No matter how high his martial arts skills were, he basically couldn't break free.

"Are you Tianshu?" Luo Fengtang raised his voice.

"hehe……"

The person on the other side only sneered twice and did not admit it, but also denied Tianshu's identity.

"You are also a martial arts master. Don't you have the status of a master?"

Luo Fengtang said.

"What I do is assassination. You don't need to say more. Today, you, Luo Fengtang, will be buried here."

Tianshu said hiding in the dark.

He has this confidence, and this time, he brought all the elites from Yizhou.

Plus several elites trained by Yang Huchen.

Although he is the only grandmaster warrior, there are a total of eight first-class warriors next to the grandmaster.

Eight first-class warriors held the Skynet respectively, which was enough to prevent Luo Fengtang from breaking free.

"Where is Yang Huchen? Isn't he here?"

Luo Fengtang said calmly.

"Do it!"

Tianshu stopped answering Luo Fengtang's words and shouted loudly.

Hundreds of archers appeared around.

The strong palace is full.

If they were shot together, Luo Fengtang would have no chance of survival.

But at this moment, hundreds of archers went numb and fell down before letting their arrows escape their hands.

Tianshu, who was hiding nearby, screamed in surprise.

"Luo Fengtang, why are you here?"

He exclaimed in surprise, and without even making a move, he rushed out from his hiding place and flew into the distance without looking back.
