Chapter 936

"Confused accounts, confused accounts. Fortunately, financial markets and the like are not developed, and the means of corruption do not seem sophisticated." In Bai Lang's view, the means of corruption and bribery by bureaucrats in this world are relatively simple. If it were the era of his previous life, various means of corruption would be varied. The Great Wu Dynasty is full of corrupt officials, which can be compared to the late Qing Dynasty, and there is no customs house that can make up for the deficit of the imperial court. "I think this Great Wu is going to finish," Bai Lang said.

"This Great Wu Dynasty has big officials and big corruption, and small officials are also big corruption. If the Jingtai Emperor has the guts, he can regularly raid homes to make up for national use. However, I think that big brother is not necessarily a clean emperor. Building large-scale projects and living in luxury is his nature, and he will definitely intensify it." Bai Lang thought so. Now, no matter how you look at it, this Great Wu Dynasty is probably not as good as the former Great Shang—the Great Shang could at least say "Shang soldiers are hundreds," which can be considered brave and good at fighting and winning every battle.

What does the Great Wu Dynasty have? The northern border army can still say it can fight, the border army suppressing the southern barbarians in the south can barely fight, and the central Forbidden Army and the local class army are probably rotten long ago. If half of the actual personnel can be said to have a conscientious garrison officer, it is already good. In fact, the whole Great Wu relies on the foundation of having the largest number of Celestial Experts among the forces in the world—anyway, as long as they are in the Great Wu Dynasty, they count. Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism all count.

It's fine when there's nothing to do on weekdays. If you really want to use it to fight for your life, it's hard to say how many of these Celestial Experts can be mobilized... Bai Lang doubts that the determination of these people is probably not as good as the determination of the few Celestial Experts of the Northern Barbarians and the Demon Kingdom to fight for their own tribes/ethnic groups.

The Wolf Lord broke through the pass, and the northwest was rotten. The order to mobilize troops was also issued. It was still not mobilizing Bai Lang's Yeluohuo, but mobilizing 50,000 troops from the Beijing camp led by the Duke of Cao to go on an expedition—poor these 50,000 people, I don't know if there are 25,000, and they must be old, weak, sick, and disabled. The strong men who can work have all gone to the mansions of the Beijing camp masters to work and farm... The weapons are well-equipped—no matter what, the imperial capital has multiple armories, and opening one can easily equip an army of 100,000.

The problem is whether these armor and weapons are crudely made—the silver and materials allocated by the Ministry of War's Armory Division and the Inner Prison Armory Factory were never fully paid, and people up and down had to deduct them. The weapons delivered by the craftsmen to the armory must be rotten goods. As for the equipment out of the warehouse, it must be floated. Anyway, the Great Wu imperial court is such an imperial court, and the rules are such rules...

When Bai Lang took things from the armory, because his Celestial Expert fierce name was outside, the official in charge of the armory dared not give him good things and dared not float, so the armor and horse gear in Yeluohuo's hands were first-class goods. It can be considered a fancy team of armored cavalry. Under Bai Lang's leadership, it should be considered a strong army in the world.

50,000 people dragged their feet, and they also grabbed many hooligans and rascals from the capital to make up the numbers. It was hard to set off from the capital, traveling ten miles a day—by the time they reached the northwest, the other party should basically have reached the capital.

The south is fighting in full swing, and Xiangpang's attack is not fast—Bai Lang knows clearly that this is because he does not have enough governance talents under his command. Attacking a place must uproot the local great clans. If they have done a lot of evil, they will naturally be killed—with the personality of these great clans, there are really few who don't do evil. Those powerful families are actually about the same. They may not need to do evil directly, but the stewards and housemen under them will do evil on their behalf.

Just occasionally kill a steward or something, and you will become a blue sky again—and you can take action together with the officials who come to be officials, which can be considered buying those bureaucrats and buying them with reputation.

Xiangpang cut off the roots of the local powerful clans and great clans. He has already achieved the status of Celestial Expert, and those small great clans cannot stop him at all. So there were Celestial Experts from nearby great clans who came to destroy him—although the Great Wu Dynasty is large, there are only eight Celestial Experts in the Jiangdong great clans. Now two have come out to try to suppress Xiangpang. Of course, they tried to recruit first—actually, there have been several times before, but Xiangpang is not open to oil and salt.

Money and beauties are ineffective. What Xiangpang seeks is a breath, a breath of sweeping away injustice, and three words "Why!"

Bai Lang also knows this path and knows that the army in the capital will definitely not be able to beat it and will spoil things. "The result is still for me to come!" It was the imperial edict of the Jingtai Emperor sent by an 800-mile fast horse from the capital, ordering the Prince of Qin to send troops quickly to pacify the wolf soldiers in the northwest—as for these troops sent out from the capital, forget it, just use them to guard the pass that might be recaptured by Bai Lang.

It seems that the Jingtai Emperor also knows the situation in the northwest, knowing that the lid cannot be covered. It is impossible not to use the Prince of Qin, Bai Lang, and he can only hope that Bai Lang will take action fast enough to annihilate the wolf soldiers before the group of guys in the Northern Court reacts.

Yeluohuo went into battle for the first time. Bai Lang rode on a spirit horse, holding a long spear, wearing a brocade fur instead of armor. Behind him were 1,800 Yeluohuo cavalrymen, and there were 2,000 four-wheeled large carriages pulled by migrant workers. They were full of arrows, armor, and grain, grass, and tents. Bai Lang raised his spear and pointed forward, smoke and dust rose, 1,800 cavalrymen began to move forward quickly following him, and the carriages also followed the cavalry closely with rolling smoke and dust, two horses per carriage.

Only this kind of four-wheeled large carriage with spring suspension and "tires" made of special Eucommia rubber—this is Bai Lang's invention—only this kind of four-wheeled large carriage with steering can keep up with the Yeluohuo, who all use demon horses as mounts. They can travel 500 miles a day and don't need to camp. Just surround the carriages. After traveling for six days, Bai Lang could already see the bloody aura rushing into the sky in the distance. "The wall-clearing and field-clearing were done quite well. No one was left for those wolf cubs to kill, and they didn't have enough supplies to run thousands of miles."

Bai Lang's killing at this moment is not the action of a Celestial Expert. There is no need to pack all the evil spirit and resentment to himself so early. It still needs to be handled through the killing of military formations—the evil spirit of military formation fighting is returned to heaven and earth, and the person himself does not bear karma and resentment. The wolf army in front has wolf heads and human bodies, and there are also giant wolves that simply stand up, and even people riding on giant wolves. Each one looks full of evil spirit.

It is also true that these guys are all full of killing sins, breaking cities and slaughtering cities, killing living creatures as military rations, and many small countries in the northwest have suffered deeply from them. They have also established several countries themselves, and there are killings among them—there are Celestial Experts in the tribe, but they never interfere. These monsters all wear leather armor, the armor has metal pieces embedded, and they also have curved blades, long spears, and bows and arrows in their hands, a typical light cavalry configuration.
