Chapter 131: Counting the number of people
Only then did Zhao Yun set his eyes on Xue Cheng: "Before, this official heard that Xue Duwei was in poor health in the Taishou Mansion, why did he come to the army?" ”
"Knowing that Zhao Taishou is going to the army, even if the last general is unwell, he will come." Xue Cheng is colorful.
Zhao Yun asked, "I wonder what is wrong with Duwei Xue?" Why did the official see that Du Wei's face was ruddy, not because he was sick. ”
"Tai Shoujian smiled, and the last general had a headache." Xue Chengdao.
"Captain Xue is in poor health, but he can still insist on coming to the army, which is really gratifying to the officer." Zhao Yundao sneered in his heart, and when you have a headache later.
When the governor and the chief bookkeeper went to the Taishou Mansion for the first time, they all claimed that they were ill, and it was clear that there was a problem, and on the first day of Taishou's tenure, many important officials in the county did not come to see him, which would always give people a feeling of being soft and bulliful.
And the lieutenant claimed to be sick, which just gave Zhao Yun the opportunity to come to the army to inspect, as long as he grasped the handle of the lieutenant, it would not be easy to deal with him.
"Thanks to the praise of Taishou, the last general will not dare to be ashamed." Xue Chengdao, even if Zhao Yun sneered, he didn't care at all, he came to the army to show that his position in the army was unshakable, Zhao Yun wanted to intervene in the affairs of the army, it would be so simple.
"Congratulations to Zhao Taishou." Seeing Zhao Yun get up, Xue Cheng hurriedly shouted.
Zhao Yun turned around and smiled: "When did this official say that he was going to leave the army, could it be that Captain Xue didn't welcome this official like this?" ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." Xue Cheng's face turned red, he suddenly felt that he was a little uncertain about Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun was born as a general in the army, he knew about this matter, and Zhao Yun was only fifteen years old, he also knew that it was said that a person of this age should be easy to control.
"Since this officer has come to the army, he naturally wants to meet the soldiers in the army." Zhao Yundao.
Xue Cheng's heart suddenly, what the sergeant of the army looked like, he knew, and he had the intention to persuade Zhao Yun not to go, but he understood, the more he said this, I am afraid that Zhao Yun would be more interested in seeing the sergeant in the army.
Zhao Yun did not come to take office, Zhao Jun had already received the news, so he secretly discussed the strategy to deal with Zhao Yun, Zhao Jun did not have Taishou, then the power in their hands would be greater, and the arrival of Taishou was to take power away from their hands.
Zhao Yun was keenly aware of the change in Xue Cheng's complexion, and walked forward.
Zhang Kai and Xue Cheng fell behind, communicating in a low voice.
After a brief understanding of what happened, Xue Cheng looked at Huang Lu, the captain of the city gate, with a trace of anger, the reason why Huang Lu sat in the position of the captain of the city gate was more because Huang Qi had merit in fighting against the remnants of the Yellow Turban, but he didn't expect Huang Qi to follow Zhao Yun and show such pride, and after Zhao Yun left the army, he had the opportunity to clean up Huang Qi.
Huang Yu didn't know that he was already worried about Captain Xue Cheng.
In fact, Huang Qi didn't know that leading Zhao Yun to the army was a matter of offending people, if some aspects were not handled well, it was very likely to offend Xue Cheng, at the beginning, Huang Qi may have been a little apprehensive, but after seeing Zhao Yun's methods in the army, he was a lot relieved.
On the stage, Zhao Yun looked at the dense soldiers below, his brows frowned slightly, the formation of the sergeants and soldiers gave people the feeling that they were twisted and crooked, and there was no sergeant in the army should have neatness and momentum, with such an army to win the battle, it was simply a fantasy.
"Captain Xue, how many soldiers are there in the army?" Zhao Yun asked.
Xue Cheng said: "Taishou, there are more than 2,000 people in the army. ”
"How many people are more than 2,000?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Two thousand, nine hundred." Xue Chengdao.
"The number is relatively neat, Captain Huang Qi, how many soldiers should there be in the army?" Zhao Yun set his sights on Huang Qi.
Huang Yu said: "Taishou, there are 500 soldiers under the command of the lowly position, responsible for the safety of the city, there are 3,122 soldiers in the city, only two soldiers were killed for dereliction of duty, there should be 2,620 people in the army." ”
Xue Cheng's complexion changed slightly, and his gaze at Huang Qi became more and more unkind, he was a high-ranking lieutenant, and it was okay to show off his might in the army, so it was quite difficult for Xue Cheng to really understand the situation in the army.
"Captain Xue, could it be that you recruited another two hundred and eighty people?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Taishou, it may be that the last general has misremembered, and the last general has had a terrible headache recently." Xue Cheng's face turned slightly red.
Zhao Yun scolded: "As a general in the army, I don't even know how many soldiers there are in the army, although Huang Qi is said to be the captain of the city gate, he is stronger than you." ”
A look of resentment flashed in Xue Cheng's eyes, but thinking that Zhao Yun's identity could only be accepted, and even hated Huang Qi, you are a city gate captain, you have nothing to do to study how many people are in the army, the key is that Huang Yun's answer made him lose face.
This is in front of the officers and men in the army, and in front of them are all the soldiers in the army.
"Count the number of people!" Zhao Yun ordered lightly.
Xue Cheng hurriedly said: "Taishou, the sergeants and soldiers of the army have arrived, and the last general has ordered the generals of the army to count them." ”
"This official is worried that Xue Duwei can't remember clearly." Zhao Yun sneered, Xue Cheng's performance just shows that there is a problem.
After half an hour, Bo Cai stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Taishou, there are two thousand and fifty officers and soldiers in the army. ”
"Captain Xue, aren't there 2,900 people in the army? After counting, why are there only 2,000 and 50 people, and where did the other 850 go? Zhao Yun said coldly.
The weather was cold, but Xue Cheng's forehead was dripping with sweat, what was going on in the army, he couldn't be clearer, there were more than 3,100 soldiers inside and outside the city, but when he reported it, there were 4,000 people, and the actual number in the army was even less.
The officers and men in the army need to be consumed, and there are 4,000 people reported to the army, but there are actually less than 3,000 people in the army, and there are vacancies of more than 1,000 people.
When he was in Zhao County, Fang Mao of the county town would not pay much attention to this situation, and besides, he had some co-optation for Xue Cheng, even if he knew that Xue Cheng was greedy for a lot of materials, he would not pursue it, the current Yellow Turban Rebellion has been pacified, even if there are fewer officers and soldiers in the army, there will not be much of a problem.
"He, they ......"
Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "Let this official come to me, there are less than 3,000 people in the army, but Captain Xue is falsely reporting the number, and the money and food consumed by those non-existent soldiers are probably in the hands of Captain." ”
When Xue Cheng heard this, a cold sweat broke out, he didn't expect Zhao Yun to say anything.
"Taishou, the rest of the soldiers have gone to pacify the Yellow Turban, and Xue Duwei is in poor health, so he didn't tell him." Zhang Kai hurriedly stepped forward.
