Lu Yuan walked up to Liu Yuliang and called in a low voice: "Supervisor! ”

Liu Yuliang also looked grim: "What do you say you should do now?" ”

"The overseer should be held accountable, and immediately behead the person who caused the mistake of grain and grass!"

Lu Yuan replied coldly.

Lu Yuan didn't want to just sit back and watch Guan Ning's soldiers ruin Lu Xiangsheng's plan to expel Jiannu, because he knew that once Lu Xiangsheng's troops could not let Jiannu suffer heavy losses, intercept Jiannu in Beizhili and force him to withdraw to Guanwai, then Jiannu would go deep into the hinterland of Shandong this time, and his foundation in the Linqing area would definitely be affected, which would cause his foundation in the past year to be ruined.

Moreover, Lu Yuan felt that the sudden fire in the grain depot this time might not be a real fire, but an excuse for Guan Ningbing to continue to delay the war.

In any case, Lu Yuan wanted Liu Yuliang to give it a try.

"But there are so many of them!"

Liu Yuliang replied.

"A group of rabble who are afraid of building slaves like tigers, what are they afraid of, they don't want the superintendent to live, do the superintendents still want to open up to them, besides, the last general can guarantee that the superintendent will be able to break out afterwards!"

Lu Yuan replied in a low voice.

Liu Yuliang nodded, he knew that he had no soldiers and no generals at the moment, so he could only obey Lu Yuan's arrangement.

So, Liu Yuliang suddenly shouted: "Lu Yuan, immediately detain Wang Tingchen, the chief soldier of Liaodong, and Wu Xiang, the chief soldier of Ningyuan!" ”

"Yes!"

Lu Yuan responded, and then immediately shouted: "Yue Changgui, immediately carry out the order of the superintendent." ”

"Command!"

At this time, Yue Changgui's guard company, as Lu Yuan's guard company, also temporarily served as the guard of the supervisor Liu Yuliang, so he was directly stationed in Baoding Mansion with Liu Yuliang.

Yue Changgui's guard company immediately surrounded the entire hall, and then, Yue Changgui personally walked up to Wang Tingchen and Wu Xiang with four mighty soldiers, and ordered: "Detain them!" ”

Seeing this, Wang Tingchen and Wu Xiang naturally didn't do it, and hurriedly struggled: "Inspector Liu, what are you doing!" ”

"Liu Yuliang! What do you want! ”

Gao Qiqian was also very shocked, he didn't expect Liu Yuliang to command Lu Yuan, and Lu Yuan really dared to carry out Liu Yuliang's order to detain the two Guan Ning soldiers.

Zu Dale even pulled out his knife: "The surname is Liu, do you really think you are really a supervisor!" ”

Liu Yuliang glanced at Lu Yuan at this time, and said: "This superintendent has repeatedly ordered the grain and grass to be delivered to Qingdu, but you have repeatedly delayed, and now it has even caused a fire in the grain depot, destroying the important task of our Qinwang army to drive out the Jiannu, and not killing the people who delay the military aircraft, which is not enough to boost the morale of the army and set an example!" Lu Yuan, holding the sword of the superintendent, immediately beheaded Wang Tingchen and Wu Xiang! ”

"Yes!"

Lu Yuan immediately took Shang Fang's sword from Liu Yuliang's hand.

"You dare!"

Zu Dale saw Lu Yuan coming, and immediately held a knife and pointed at Lu Yuan.

Zu Kuan also followed.

"Yue Changgui! Order the firearms of a platoon of the Guards Company to immediately raise their guns, dare to obstruct the law enforcers, and shoot them directly! ”

Seeing this, Lu Yuan did not show weakness, and directly shouted loudly.

"Inspector Liu, He Dusi, we advise you to be cautious, this is Guan Ningbing's territory."

Gao Qiqian had to be reminded.

"Hmph, Guan Ningbing? Afraid that Jiannu is like a mouse seeing a cat's cowardly army, what is there to be afraid of, dare to face to face with Jiannu like my mighty army man? ”

Lu Yuan smiled coldly and asked rhetorically.

"You!"

Zu Dale and Zu Kuan and other Guan Ning generals felt that they had been greatly humiliated, but they couldn't refute it.

Yue Changgui had already come over with a platoon of firearms at this time, and he had already begun to reload.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan directly ignored the blades of Zu Dale and Zu Kuan, and directly shouted to Yue Changgui: "Yue Changgui, immediately behead Wang Tingchen and Wu Xiang!" Kill Wu Xiang who is directly in charge of the grain depot first! ”

"Command!"

As he spoke, Yue Changgui personally pulled out his knife and walked to Wu Xiang first.

Wu Xiang had already started to tremble at this time and shouted: "Slow! Inspector Rong! The last general's report was wrong, although the grain depot was drained, the fire had been extinguished, and the loss was not large, only one or two stones of grain and grass were burned. ”

Wu Xiang didn't want to be beheaded in such a daze, so he hurriedly changed his words.

Lu Yuan smiled coldly, he guessed that these Guan Ning soldiers might not really burn these grains and grass.

After all, so much grain and grass involves the consumption of tens of thousands of officers and soldiers for a month, and the value is more than 100,000 taels.

And Lu Yuan also guessed that this Wu Xiang might have changed his mind before he was killed, because he remembered that this Wu Xiang in history, as Wu Sangui's father, was a greedy person who was afraid of death, and he didn't have to be tortured by Li Zicheng for a long time before he gave up all his money and food, so he asked Yue Changgui to kill Wu Xiang first, so that he could directly test whether these Guan Ning generals really wanted to burn the grain and grass that was transported to Lu Xiangsheng's department.

Lu Yuan glanced at Liu Yuliang at this time.

Liu Yuliang also understood, snorted busily, and said, "Since the grain and grass have not been destroyed, I will spare your life!" But the military situation is urgent, and this superintendent has no time to argue with you, Gonggong Gao, please immediately order them to hand over all the grain and grass needed by Lu Xiangsheng's department to Liu Tingshu, otherwise this superintendent should deal with Wang Tingchen and Wu Xiang for the crime of delaying the military aircraft! Wang Tingchen and Wu Xiang will not be released for the time being! Put the grain and grass after it is shipped! ”

"Yes!"

Lu Yuan replied.

At this time, Zu Dale and Zu Kuan were so angry that they were already raising their eyebrows, but they were helpless.

Wang Tingchen just scolded Wu Xiang at this time: "The surname is Wu, you coward!" You are a dignified chief military officer, I don't believe that he Liu Yuliang really dared to cut off your head! ”

Wu Sangui stood up angrily at this time, looked at his father who was angrily scolded by Wang Tingchen and the angry uncles and elders in the hall, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "The last general is willing to take General Liu to hand over the grain!" ”

"Very good, Liu Tingshu, go to the grain depot with Wu Guerrilla!"

Liu Yuliang nodded, and glanced at Gao Qiqian again: "Gonggong Gao, this superintendent hopes that your officers and soldiers can distinguish the importance of the matter, if they still have the imperial court in their eyes, they should know what they should do at this time!" ”

Syllable!

Gao Qiqian slapped the table violently, stood up, and glared at Liu Yuliang angrily, he couldn't stand being threatened by Liu Yuliang like this!

He couldn't help but be angry, because now he already knew that once this batch of grain and grass was transported away, he would lose 50,000 taels himself, and the key to this batch of grain and grass was to fund Lu Xiangsheng's department.

But Gao Qiqian is not good for Liu Yuliang, after all, Liu Yuliang is the commander of the three armies, the supervisor personally appointed by Emperor Chongzhen, the first assistant of the cabinet, and the first person in the foreign dynasty.

And he is not the number one person in the inner court, even if he slanders, Emperor Chongzhen may not believe him.

"Put your knives away and sit back!"

Because of this, no matter how angry Gao Qiqian was, he could only grit his teeth and endure it, and even had to put out the fire, after all, he was Emperor Chongzhen's person, so he didn't want to see the internal fire of the Ming army.

What's more, Gao Qiqian can see that the person who controls the overall situation in the entire lobby is actually Dusi Lu Yuan, who has been standing behind Liu Yuliang.

Gao Qiqian really didn't dare to be sure if Lu Yuan would come to a fish and die and break the net first, and kill all his people first!

Therefore, Gao Qiqian also glared at Lu Yuan, and then turned around and had to continue to roar at Zu Dale, Zu Kuan and other Guan Ning generals: "What are you doing!" Do you really want to rebel because of this? ”

Although the generals of Guan Ningbing have always disobeyed the decrees of the imperial court, they did not dare to really rebel, after all, they still have to rely on the imperial court's annual salary of more than 7 million taels to support them.

Therefore, they didn't dare to really kill the supervisor Liu Yuliang, and the generals of Guan Ningbing, such as Zu Dale and Zu Kuan, had to withdraw their knives, but they still held the handle of the knife one by one, their eyes widened, and they were obviously still unwilling! Not convinced! I don't want to see the grain and grass taken away!

Gao Qiqian also knew at this time that it was not possible to come hard with Liu Yuliang, after all, Liu Yuliang still had the support of Lu Yuan's army, and Liu Yuliang obviously wore a pair of pants with Lu Yuan.

So.

Gao Qiqian had to also salute Liu Yuliang: "Supervisor Rongyu, our family is not going to get along with the supervisor, but our family and Lu Xiangsheng have always been at odds, once Lu Xiangsheng and Jiannu make new contributions to the decisive battle this time, there must be a heart to get rid of our family, our family has to allow them to seize the grain and grass of Lu Xiangsheng's department, and they have also agreed with our family that as long as the supervisor comes, he will give the supervisor 20,000 taels of silver, and I hope that the supervisor will invite from us." ”

Gao Qiqian now had to divide 20,000 taels of silver to Liu Yuliang by himself, which made him feel very painful.

But there is no way, Liu Yuliang is the commander of the whole army, and he and the generals of Guan Ningbing have to pass Liu Yuliang's pass now if they want to do this, because Liu Yuliang now has the support of Lu Yuan's troops and horses behind him, and he is no longer an empty supervisor.

Giving a bribe to Liu Yuliang is naturally also a bribe to Lu Yuan behind Liu Yuliang.

20,000 taels of silver!

Liu Yuliang himself felt moved when he heard this number.

Even Lu Yuan himself felt excited.

However, Lu Yuan didn't want to betray Lu Xiangsheng for 20,000 taels of silver, after all, for Lu Yuan, helping Lu Xiangsheng now was tantamount to protecting his own industry in Shandong.

And Liu Yuliang didn't want to betray Lu Xiangsheng for 20,000 taels of silver, because Lu Xiangsheng's success in this battle against Jiannu involved his political future.

Liu Yuliang and Lu Yuan glanced at each other and nodded to each other, and then Liu Yuliang said:

"Gonggong Gao, what you said just now, this Inspector will still transport the grain and grass if you didn't say this, and this Inspector will not sit back and watch the Lu Gongsuo Department starve to death on the battlefield because of your high dive! In addition, this Inspector can assure you that he, Lu Xiangsheng, will not do anything to you, first of all, you are His Majesty's person, and secondly, I, Liu Yuliang, will not allow him Lu Xiangsheng to do anything to you! ”

After Liu Yuliang said this, he stood up and ordered: "Get out of the city!" Prepare to transport grain and grass to Qingdu! ”

……

Lu Yuan accompanied Liu Yuliang out of the city, and at the same time, Liu Tingshu also escorted the required grain and grass to follow.

However, Gao Qiqian and the generals of Guan Ningbing were all depressed.

"Uncle, let me bring three thousand iron horsemen to kill this thief overseer! If you dare to threaten us, I can't bear it without saying this! ”

Zu Kuan gritted his teeth and said to Wang Tingchen at this time, and he was about to get on the horse and lead the iron horse to kill him.

"Come back! Gao Gonggong, that's right, do you really want to rebel, he Liu Yuliang is now the supervisor! ”

Wang Tingchen shouted angrily at Zu Kuan.

Zu Kuan had to get off the horse, looking depressed.

Gao Qiqian was also silent for a long time.

Zu Dale couldn't help but say angrily: "Now, how to explain the batch of grain and grass that I agreed with Jin Shang?" ”

"How else can I explain, just say that Liu Yuliang took it, and let them Jin Shang find Liu Yuliang to go!"

Wang Tingchen said depressedly.

This way.

Lu Yuan finally relieved himself when he looked at this batch of grain and grass, and secretly thought that in this historical time and space of his own, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army finally didn't have to fight Jiannu hungry.

As for letting Guan Ning's soldiers fight Jiannu, Lu Yuan had no hope, he only hoped that Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army could successfully prevent Jiannu from entering Shandong.

What made Lu Yuan even more relieved was that he did not encounter Jiannu on the way to transport grain this time, which showed that his initial judgment was correct, and Jiannu really would not come to the territory of Baoding Mansion that had been ransacked.

Liu Yuliang also breathed a sigh of relief, and after returning to the camp, he said to Lu Yuan with a smile: "Lu Yuan, thanks to you this time, otherwise how should this Inspector do it, there are so many problems in this grain and grass alone, which is really something that this Inspector didn't expect when he was an official in the imperial court before." ”

"The superintendent praises, this time it all depends on the grace and power of the superintendent, otherwise I don't know how many things have happened!"

Lu Yuan said.

At that time.

Lu Xiangsheng had finished ordering the grain and grass and came to Liu Yuliang, and directly knelt in front of Liu Yuliang: "This time, the Tianxiong Army can get the grain and grass, and the Quannai Governor is in danger and urges, and the officials are grateful!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng's opinion of Liu Yuliang has changed greatly, he used to think that Liu Yuliang was just a corpse vegetarian, but now he has to admit that His Majesty the Emperor is right to let Liu Yuliang be the supervisor.

"Inspector Lu, please get up!"

Liu Yuliang hurriedly helped Lu Xiangsheng up, and said with a smile: "The main credit this time is Lu Yuan, if it weren't for Lu Yuan's willingness to fight with Guan Ningbing, he would not have come back this batch of grain and grass." ”

When Lu Xiangsheng heard Liu Yuliang say this, he also hugged Lu Yuan gratefully: "Thank you!" ”

"Lu Gong is polite!"

Lu Yuan replied.

"Okay, now that the grain and grass problem has been solved, the next thing is to start a war with Jiannu, and I hope that the Lu Gongsuo will work hard to overcome Jiannu and live up to the emperor's grace, so as not to make Jiannu miserable again!"

Liu Yuliang said with a smile at this time.

"Please rest assured, the subordinate officials will fight to the death, and they will not undress if they don't break the slaves!"

Lu Xiangsheng solemnly replied.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan also arched his hand and said: "The last general will also fully cooperate with Lu Gong!" ”

Lu Xiangsheng glanced at Lu Yuan with appreciation.

However, Liu Yuliang glanced at Lu Yuan embarrassedly, he hoped that Lu Yuan could protect himself and preserve his strength as the basis for his future foothold in the imperial court, rather than that Lu Yuan would also fight a decisive battle with Jiannu like Lu Xiangsheng and lose his troops.

Lu Yuan naturally knew what Liu Yuliang thought, but he really wanted to cooperate with Lu Xiangsheng's subordinates in this battle, after all, it was his own interests to fight with Jiannu this time.

When the first batch of recruits arrived, Lu Yuan reorganized the original two bureaus and the newly supplemented soldiers, and reorganized the original two bureaus into three bureaus.

Yue Changgui, the commander of the Guards Company and the director of the General Staff Department, was promoted to the head of the third bureau.

The commander of the Guards Company and the chief of staff was succeeded by Zhang Jiajun.

At this time, Zhang Jiajun shook hands with Yue Changgui: "Congratulations! ”

"This is all the grace of the official!"

Yue Changgui replied.

Zhang Jiajun nodded and returned to the station of his guard company, and saw the medical soldier Jingya standing on the spot looking at the opposite side stupidly, so he asked, "Reluctant to him?" ”

Jingya nodded.

"Then why don't you tell him, Sister Jingya?" Zhang Jiajun asked.

"Don't dare, I'm not the one who is finished," Jingya replied.

Zhang Jiajun rolled his eyes, and suddenly shouted: "Assemble the whole company!" ”
