Lu Chen led the troops to ask for armaments, and Liu Feng, the head of the county, tried to prevaricate the matter on the grounds that the escort team was attacked by horse bandits in the middle of the road and the supplies were looted.

When he says such things, he doesn't even believe in ghosts, let alone people.

You must know that the military funds and armaments allocated by the county to the border cities, once down, the military salary alone, to say the least, there are 100,000 taels of silver, and tens of thousands of sets of weapons and armor, if these are also converted into money, it is undoubtedly a huge number.

Coupled with the geographical importance of the border city, because of the need to fight against barbarian soldiers, wars often occur, so the imperial court not only did not collect various taxes from Pingyang County, but also often allocated silver taels to serve as military funds.

It can be seen from this that Lord Liu, the head of the county with a fat head and big ears and a big belly, still doesn't know how much military resources he is greedy!

Right now, Liu Feng actually used such a lame reason to perfunctory Lu Chen, he simply regarded himself as a three-year-old child! He resisted the urge to strangle Liu Feng to death, and laughed angrily: "Lord Liu! You keep saying that the supplies needed by our army last time were robbed by horse bandits, didn't the county send troops to recruit them!? ”

"It's... The den of those horse bandits is in the border city county, and it should be suppressed by the border army, of course, this official has also ordered the former Lord R County Shouwang to be sure to wipe out this gang of horse bandits! Liu Feng said without blushing and without a heartbeat.

Hearing this, Lu Chen looked at Zhao Chuan with inquiring eyes, and when the latter saw this, he immediately understood, walked to Lu Chen's side, first looked at Liu Feng deeply, and then lowered his voice and explained: "My lord, what the county leader Lord Liu said about the suppression of horse bandits by the border army seems reasonable, but in fact it is not the case at all, first, the soldiers of our army must always defend against the attacks of barbarians, so they can't distinguish manpower to suppress bandits; Second, our army is under-armed and simply unable to suppress it, while those horse bandits have new armaments for our army......"

"Understood." Lu Chen nodded, he immediately found out that there was something greasy in it, but he didn't say anything, but waved his hand slightly to signal Zhao Chuan to retreat, and then continued to Liu Feng: "In this way, it was the lower official who misunderstood Lord Liu. ”

Liu Feng has been an official for so many years, how could he not hear the ridicule in Lu Chen's words, but he deliberately pretended not to hear it, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's good that Lord Lu knows!" Now, should Lord Lu also give this official an explanation!? ”

"Of course, but before that, the lower officials still hope that Lord Liu can allocate our army's supplies first." Lu Chen said.

"This is natural, even if Lord Lu doesn't come here today, in fact, I have already ordered the people below." Liu Feng said in a high-sounding voice.

"I almost believed it!" Lu Chen snorted secretly in his heart, but his face stared at Liu Feng coldly without speaking.

Perhaps because Lu Chen was a little uncomfortable, Liu Feng coughed slightly, and explained: "Before, didn't Lord Wang die in battle, and Lord Lu hasn't come to take office yet, so the official can't complete the handover work, since Lord Lu has come to the door in person, well, the official promises you, within ten days, the military resources and armaments needed by the border army will be delivered to Lord Lu on time." ”

"Nope! I want it now! Lu Chen didn't bother to dwell on this issue with him here, so he went straight to the point.

"Now?"

"Yes!"

"The official has already said that within ten days, it will definitely be ......" "The lower official also said that he will see the supplies now!"

"You! How can this be justified......"

"If you can't see the materials needed by our army today......" Lu Chen's tone was cold.

"How are you going?"

"Murderous !!"

"You're bold!"

"Zhao Chuan!" Lu Chen shouted, proving with practical actions whether he dared or not.

"The last general!" Zhao Chuan came out of the queue and bowed his hand.

Seeing this, Liu Feng panicked all of a sudden, and pointed at Lu Chen with a trembling finger and said, "You... You... Lu Chen, you dare to move your own official, don't you want to die! ”

"Humph!" Lu Chen sneered, ignored him, and glared directly at Zhao Chuan: "What are you waiting for!?" How many of the officers and men of our army died indirectly at the hands of this person! Now, this official orders you to use the war knife in your hand to cut off Liu Feng's head! Avenge the fallen soldiers of our army! ”

Really want to cut down the county head!? If it is really cut, I am afraid that after today, everyone present will not even want to run!

Zhao Chuan's heart shrank into a ball at this time, but under Lu Chen's angry shout, he still had red eyes, and roared and pulled out the saber on his waist.

Very good! This Zhao Chuan is of great use! Lu Chen nodded secretly, of course he wouldn't be so stupid as to really kill the county head, if he did that, he would really not survive three episodes. The reason why this is the case is that he is deliberately deterring Liu Feng and intends to use forcible means to force Liu Feng to comply.

Sure enough, as soon as the war knife in Zhao Chuan's hand came out of the sheath, Liu Feng's face immediately changed, and his attitude became faster: "Okay, well, since Lord Lu wants to be armed now, this official... This official is for you! ”

"Put the knife away, don't scare the county chief." Lu Chen glanced at Zhao Chuan appreciatively, and the latter hurriedly responded, and while putting away the knife, he also sighed in his heart.

Liu Feng said that within ten days, how could Lu Chen agree to him, he had already noticed that in the matter of horse bandits, he might be a little tired, if Liu Feng was asked to send someone to escort him on a fixed date, I am afraid that eighty percent of them would have to be robbed by horse bandits at that time......

Of course, he was not afraid that Liu Feng would settle accounts with him afterwards, through a series of negotiations with Liu Feng today, Lu Chen had already seen that this person did not know how much money was allocated by the imperial court and how much people's fat and ointment were looted. In this way, Liu Feng will definitely not dare to report today's matter to the imperial court, because he himself is more afraid of investigation than anyone else!

In the society at that time, the hierarchy was strict, and there was a clear distinction between respect and inferiority, and it was impossible for the subordinates to dare to go to the superiors for theory, let alone bring troops to come.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Feng dared to make a lot of money in Pingyang County, and for the materials requested by various counties, he could drag and prevaricate, and finally all went into his own pocket.

And all of this was disrupted by Lu Chen, a modern person who suddenly appeared, in Lu Chen's concept, there are obviously not so many concerns, and he also pinched Liu Feng's dare not report this, so he acted like this, it seems to be a little impulsive and reckless, but in fact, he is thoughtful and accurate.

Under Lu Chen's tough attitude, Liu Feng had no choice but to open the treasury in the mansion, and in a short time, under a series of busy work, a cadre of soldiers loaded boxes of silver and armaments into the car.

casually opened a nearby box, looking at the silver taels with white flowers inside, Lu Chen was a little dumbfounded for a while, in his life, let alone seen, he had never even heard of so much silver.

After being stunned for a long time, he came back to his senses, waved his hand again and again: "Zhao Chuan, let the brothers check it, and after confirming that it is correct, immediately escort it back to the border city!" ”
