Chapter 185: Miss Chang's warrant

Tiemo clenched his fists and said with a cold smile: "Abadai, this old thing has a good idea, if he is allowed to go to Monan, can we still have a stable life?" Olge, take off the flowers, you will immediately go to Mosna, and send troops to the Nanmo River. I don't care what method you use, you must gnaw down the Nanmo River. ”

"Yes, let's go!" Olge and Tobu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took the order. Olg was also a little glad in his heart, I wonder if the token left by Zaha can be of great use, if there is no reliance at all, it will be quite difficult to gnaw down the Nanmo River.

"Zhou Dingshan, Liu Guoneng, you two led 3,000 soldiers and horses, together with cavalry, to the east of the Beimochuan Department, as long as you see the trace of Mulan Tuva, stop them first. In short, do your best to keep Abate. ”

"Whoa!"

Tiemo issued a series of orders, and the Zhangbei Barracks, which had been silent for several months, immediately became operational. Although Zhang Bei's preparations were not sufficient, in order to support this military operation, Chang Minyue still tried his best to mobilize materials from northern Jin to ensure the supply of soldiers and horses.

Since the establishment of Yunfu, Chen Zilong has a much heavier burden, on the one hand, he has to be responsible for the government affairs of Yunfu, and on the other hand, he has to help deal with military supplies in the rear.

In terms of government affairs, Chen Zilong is not too worried. To put it bluntly, as long as you have enough officials in your hands who can do things, you don't have to worry. Coincidentally, in the past two years, the new emperor ascended the throne and wantonly purged the eunuch party, and many eunuchs were facing a situation where they had no officials to do. Yunfu can run quickly, and these eunuch officials have done a lot of work, and they have to thank Emperor Chongzhen for this. If it weren't for the fact that there was really no way, these famous people would not be able to look down on the shabby place of Yunfu.

It's ridiculous to say, Chen Zilong's official position was not high before, and it was even inconspicuous. It's good now, many people who served in the sixth department before have to start with Chen Zilong. People who are mixed with officialdom see this aspect very clearly. Chen Zilong was the first to take refuge in General Tie, and his status is naturally above everyone else, even if you have been a secretary in the past and now you are in Yunfu, you have to listen to Chen Zilong.

In terms of government affairs, it is not troublesome, but in terms of logistics and materials, Chen Zilong has a headache. The front-line soldiers have been in operation for more than half a day, but now they have discovered that there is a shortage of supplies.

Chen Zilong walked around the big warehouse, angrily grabbed a few military food officers and reprimanded them loudly, "What the hell is going on?" Let you prepare 20,000 stone rice noodles in one day, how much is that? Do you have 10,000 stones? ”

A few military commissars, you look at me, I look at you, and finally lowered their heads, but no one answered. Seeing them like this, Chen Zilong was even more angry, "Don't speak? Hmph, did you swallow the previous stockpile? I advise you, it's best to admit it generously, maybe there is still life, if you let the official find out, you will be comfortable. ”

Hearing this, several military ration officers changed their faces, and one of them said with a bitter face: "Lord Chen, we really don't blame us for this, we just have the courage to swallow military rations privately." ”

"Fart" Chen Zilong rarely burst into foul language, pointed at the other party and scolded: "At this time, you dare to speak out to deceive the official, I see that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin." A few days ago, the official checked the big warehouse, and the rice grain was quite sufficient at that time, why is there less at this time? I don't blame you, do you blame the official? ”

"Lord Chen is angry, the lower officials don't dare, and listen to the lower officials."

"Lord Chen, do you know, half a month ago, Shopkeeper Cao took Miss Chang's handwritten message, saying that the disaster victims need to mobilize a large amount of food. With Miss Chang's handwritten order, how dare the lower officials not give food? At this moment, such a big thing suddenly happened, and military rations were urgently needed, and the subordinates couldn't turn into food. ”

Chen Zilong frowned, and sneered: "Nonsense, do the victims of Yunfu need food, can they still hide it from their own officials?" Recently, have you heard that in Yunfu, where is there a need for a large amount of food to save lives? ”

After thinking about it, several military commissars really hadn't heard of a special shortage of food. Although life is not easy in Tucheng and Chongli, it is not too short of food. Thinking of this, the cold sweat on the forehead of the military food officer flowed out, this matter is indeed very suspicious, but in fact, the batch of grain was really transported away by Cao Shengyu.

Embezzling military rations and delaying military planes, how big the crime is, you can think of it with your ass. For a while, several military ration officers turned as pale as paper, and they all knelt on the ground, and one of them shouted: "Lord Chen, you must investigate clearly, even if we have the courage to be greedy, we don't dare to be greedy for military rations." Even if Xiaguan and the others have this heart, they don't have the courage to swallow so much, we are wronged....."

"Huh?" Chen Zilong carefully observed the reaction of the military commissariat officer, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was indeed wrong. Anyone who secretly swallows military rations will not want to cover it up, and few people will secretly swallow more than half of it at once. On the other hand, on the side of the big warehouse, there is no concealment, if the military rations are really swallowed by these military ration officials, then these people are too stupid.

"Is that grain really transported by Shopkeeper Cao?"

"Yes, the lower officials don't dare to deceive the adults, the shopkeeper Cao was holding Miss Chang's warrant at the time, if there is no warrant, even if the lower officials have the courage to let the grain go!"

After a while, Chen Zilong asked a few personal soldiers to watch the military commissariat and rode to the Cao family's new house in Zhangbei City, and he felt that it was necessary to confirm this matter with Cao Shengyu.

When he entered the mansion, he saw Cao Shengyu busy in the hall, Chen Zilong quickly pretended to cough twice and reminded Cao Shengyu. Cao Shengyu comprehended, waved his hand and motioned for everyone to retreat, and then invited Chen Zilong to sit down, "Hey, my prefect, what kind of wind blew you here?" ”

Cao Shengyu and Chen Zilong are both descendants of the Tiemo faction, so they are naturally very familiar with each other, and they are less particular about speaking. Chen Zilong frowned and said with a wry smile: "Brother Cao, I came to you today to ask you if you had transported a large amount of rice grain from the big warehouse before. ”

What Chen Zilong didn't expect was that Cao Shengyu generously admitted, "There is such a thing, at that time, there was a drought in Tucheng and a surge in displaced people, and I was afraid that something would happen over there, so Miss Chang asked Cao to take out the grain first for later use." However, the situation on the Tucheng side quickly stabilized, and this batch of grain was useless. ”

"I see, there were a lot of displaced people in Tucheng at that time, if there was no food or drink, eighty percent would cause chaos, and Miss Chang's arrangement was considered an old man. Since it wasn't used, why didn't Brother Cao return the food? As you know, the current time for the army to conquer the Tumut tribe is in urgent need of military rations. ”

Hearing this, Cao Shengyu got up and closed the door, walked back quickly, his face changed, and he spread his hands a little bitterly, "Brother Chen, do you think Cao is the kind of person who doesn't know the general situation?" As soon as the Yamen transfer order was issued, Miss Chang asked Cao to send the food to Moss quickly, Cao knew that the military situation was urgent, how dare he slack off, and commanded the people in the house to hurry up and load the car. But no one expected that an hour had passed, and Miss Chang sent someone to send a message, saying that only the loading was allowed, and the grain was not allowed to be transported. ”

"And this?" Chen Zilong's eyes widened, he only felt that this matter was too weird, if he didn't know Cao Shengyu's personality, he would have to wonder if the other party was lying.
