Chapter 2 The steamed bun turmoil

"My lord, this pot of steamed buns with bran is today's breakfast, and I don't know what is going on. I just went to ask Gonggong Jin, and he said that this was what the imperial court meant. But the brothers practice every day, and they have the strength to eat, and you have to solve this matter at all, otherwise the brothers below will make a fuss, and they can't hold it down. Wei Daqing said angrily to Shen Chong.

Shen Chongming understood as soon as he heard this, this must be another trick of Gonggong Jin to deal with himself. He is in charge of this logistics, but the brothers below will be wronged but will spill their anger on their own head of the appeasement, and then they will make a fuss, or it is not good for their own appeasement.

With a roll of his eyes, Shen Chongming thought about it, slapped the table and stood up, and shouted angrily: "Go, find him!" With that, Wei Daqing and the others, who were stunned, strode out of the camp.

Seeing him go out, a few people reacted, it seems that Lord Shen is also unaware of this matter, so it must be the old dog of Father-in-law Jin who is behind his back. "Quick, keep up!" With that, Wei Daqing picked up the steamed buns and followed out.

Jin Gonggong's military tent was not far away, and Shen Chongming walked to the tent with Wei Daqing in a few ** steps, "Jin Gonggong, come out." Seeing that there were many sergeants nearby, Shen Chongming deliberately shouted at the top of his voice.

"Lord Shen, what are you looking for for your father-in-law?" A guard walked out, looked at Shen Chongming with an arrogant expression and asked.

"What kind of thing are you, the official has something to find Gonggong Jin, let him come out quickly." Shen Chongming didn't give any face in front of so many people, which seriously hurt the pride of the guards.

"Lord Shen, what is the identity of Gonggong Jin, in fact, you can see it if you want to." Shen Chongming didn't give face to the guards, and the guards didn't plan to give Shen Chongming face, anyway, he was Gonggong Jin's person, even if he Shen Chongming was a left-handed townman, he couldn't control himself.

Shen Chongming intended to make things bigger and establish his prestige in the army, where would he be afraid of the provocation of a small person like him, and raised his hand to punch the guards.

It happened suddenly, but fortunately, the guard's kung fu was good, and he hurriedly retreated backwards, but he was able to avoid this punch. At the same time, he pulled out the blade on his waist and shouted angrily: "Lord Shen, what do you want to do!" ”

"This official repeats it, invite Gonggong Jin out and let him explain this matter clearly, otherwise the brothers will never give up today!" As he spoke, Shen Chongming waved his hand at Wei Daqing behind him, and Wei Daqing hurriedly took a pot of steamed buns.

As soon as the guards looked at the steamed buns, they immediately understood what was going on, it seemed that the father-in-law had miscalculated, this Shen Chongming was not at all worried about common sense, and he even brought people to make trouble without asking.

It is said that in order to complete what Feng Bao ordered, Gonggong Jin specially ordered someone to mix bran in the steamed buns, in order to let the soldiers of the left post make trouble and make trouble for Shen Chongming.

According to his assumption, Shen Chongming will definitely come to ask what is going on, and when the time comes, it will be delayed again and again, and the steamed buns will definitely cause resentment among the soldiers of the left sentinel, these soldiers are short-tempered, and trouble is certain. In that case, Shen Chongming's suppression will definitely be punished by the above, so that the goal will be achieved, and he can reap some benefits by the way.

Gonggong Jin has been hiding in the tent and eavesdropping on the conversation outside, never expected that Shen Chongming would not ask him, but would take the lead in making trouble, and this time he burned himself instead of burning people.

After a pause, Gonggong Jin walked out with a smile on his face, "Lord Shen, what is it that makes you so angry?" ”

"Father-in-law Jin, tell me what's going on with this steamed bun?" Shen Chongming didn't give him a good look, and directly picked up a steamed bun and put it in front of Gonggong Jin.

"Well, Lord Shen, don't you know? Because of your expedition to Annam, our military department has spent a lot of money, and some horses are about to run out of money. This matter made the emperor very troubled, so Gonggong Feng asked me to find a way to solve the emperor's problems. Our family is in the army, so we can only start from here, but the salaries of the soldiers cannot be deducted, and we can only find a way from the meals we are in charge of. "When he said this, even Gonggong Jin admired himself a little, pulled the tiger skin and pulled the banner, and lifted the emperor out to see what else you have to say, if anyone dares to say three or four, according to the military regulations of the Shenji Battalion, it will be a hundred people who will be driven out of the barracks with a cane, and in serious cases, it is possible to kill the head!

Looking at the seriousness on his face, Shen Chongming laughed loudly in his heart, and played the same old tune again, don't you know that this official has found teeth all over the ground for the same reason, the initiator Song Qingyang?

"Gonggong Jin is loyal to the emperor, and the official admires him, so I guess all the brothers think the same way." Shen Chongming nodded and said, Gonggong Jin immediately showed a smug expression, knowing that you have nothing to say.

"But Gonggong Jin, the daily meals of the soldiers are fixed in the court, and the money you save is also from the soldiers, so why don't you inform the soldiers in advance of the important things to serve the emperor? Moreover, we don't know if the saved silver was really handed over to the emperor, and what proof do you have to prove that the saved silver has not been deducted by you? Shen Chongming asked with a sneer, which immediately made Gonggong Jin dumbfounded.

"This ...... Lord Shen, this silver was naturally handed over to the emperor, is it possible that you still want the emperor to receive some money, don't you see it? If you don't believe it, you can go directly to the emperor and ask the emperor if he has received this silver! "Gonggong Jin is also a vegetarian, and immediately treated him in the same way as a person, and used the means that Shen Chongming used against him not long ago, I don't believe that you really dare to ask, and just your little calmer, in fact, you want to see the emperor?

"Hehe, thank you father-in-law for mentioning it. It's a pity that this official position is humble and can't see the emperor, so he can only report this matter to the Admiral, and ask the Admiral to find a way to figure out this matter. If this is the case, then our Shenji Battalion will definitely carry out an all-round action to save food and clothing for the emperor's worries. As he spoke, Shen Chongming smiled at Gonggong Jin, and was about to go to the Admiral.

Isn't this to kill the Jin Gonggong who took the silver taels into his pocket, the shocked Jin Gonggong took two steps to stop Shen Chongming, and said with a smile: "Lord Shen, slow down, our family has a lot of affairs, and we haven't had time to hand over the silver taels to the emperor yet, and it's not too late for you to verify it in a few days." ”

Shen Chongming smiled coldly, lowered his voice with disdain on his face, and said, "Gonggong Jin, are you a three-year-old child as an official?" You and I both know what is going on, this time the official will not care about you, if you commit it again next time, you will blame the official for taking the soldiers to jointly report you! ”

Father-in-law Jin's face turned blue and white for a while. , forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Thank you, Lord Shen, today's kindness, our family has written it down." ”

Shen Chongming knew that he was unwilling, but this matter was to establish his prestige, and he was secondary, so he didn't think too much about it, nodded and smiled: "That's good." ”

After that, Shen Chongming smiled at the onlookers: "This official feels that there are many ways to serve the emperor, and although it is more direct to save money and food, it is not a long-term solution. As long as the soldiers of our Shenji Battalion are full and have strength, they can train hard to kill the enemy, and when they are on the battlefield, they can destroy the enemy for the emperor, that is the greatest loyalty! Father-in-law Jin, are you right when you say that this official thinks? ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Shen is high-minded, and our family admires it." Jin Gonggong said with a strong smile, although his mouth should be answered, but anyone can know that this is not his heart.

Shen Chongming smiled proudly, waved his hand at Wei Daqing and said, "Let's go, gather people and horses to practice!" ”

Shen Chongming's hand is playing beautifully, and the soldiers on the left sentry all know that Gonggong Jin is a difficult person, but he didn't expect Lord Shen, who has not been visible for half a month, to take him down with a few words, how can he not let the soldiers feel admiration.

Therefore, as soon as Wei Daqing heard Shen Chongming's order, he immediately hugged his fists and beckoned the people and began to line up into the school field.

Watching Shen Chongming walk away with a large group of people shouting at him, Gonggong Jin couldn't help but spit out, "Bastard, you dare to squeeze your father-in-law like this, if your father-in-law doesn't die, you're not a gentleman!" ”

Father-in-law Jin's words immediately discouraged the two guards who were still indignant, and it was better not to swear.

There is no prestige achieved overnight, although many soldiers look at themselves with reverence, but Shen Chongming knows that this is just the beginning, if you want everyone to follow your death, you must establish absolute prestige in their hearts, which requires a lot of things to accumulate. Fortunately, with the opponent of Father-in-law Jin, there must be no less such things.

The left post is the horse army of the Shenji battalion, except that the weapon used is a bird gun, the others are no different from the five thousand lower battalions, which is also another reason why the old man directly asked him to concurrently serve as the commander of the lower battalion horse army in front of the emperor.

It's just that the school field is limited, and it is not suitable for galloping horses to practice shooting, looking at his soldiers shooting stiffly on horseback, Shen Chongming couldn't help but shake his head, it's a pity that such an advanced weapon, if it can be sent and received freely on horseback, it can definitely become a weapon of war in this era.

"My lord, what's wrong with you?" Wei Daqing, who was on the side, looked at Shen Chongming and shook his head, and couldn't help but ask.

"Lord Wei, don't you think that the soldiers of our left post are a little undertrained?" Shen Chongming asked, pointing to the soldier in front of him who was shooting with a beat.

Wei Daqing was promoted step by step by the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, and he knew more about Zuo Sentinel than Shen Chongming, so of course it was inevitable that he would have some limitations. "This ...... Your Excellency, you just arrived, and you don't know much about our left outpost, although we are the left sentry in the Shenji Battalion, but our combat power is recognized as the first, and even the Admiral's central guard is not as good as it. Maybe you can't see it now, when the big drill every year, the horse galloping will have a great advantage in speed, and the back row of guns is fired in unison, and the other central defenders are on the right side of the right post Although they rely on the magic cannon in their hands, it is not our opponent. ”

"Hehe, Lord Wei misunderstood, did the official mean that you have ever thought that there is still a lot of room for improvement in the combat power of our left outpost?" Shen Chongming asked with a smile.

"Ascension? Please give me advice. Wei Daqing was confused and couldn't think of a white face, so he could only ask clearly.
