Chapter Forty-Seven: A Word Breaker
"What? These people came to ask for a military tent? Qu Chang Wutong asked in surprise when he heard the quartermaster's return in the big tent.
"Yes, my lord, they are just outside the storehouse, asking for the big tent. What to do? The quartermaster said with a bitter face.
"Didn't you say that these military supplies were all issued to the government army, and they are not government troops, so why should they receive them?" Wu Tong smiled angrily.
Damn, how could such a freak come out, give it! If you offend Lord Duwei, don't give it, this guy is just a stunned young man, maybe he's going to mess around here, and he didn't even say anything about Lord Duwei's nephew, can I stop him?
"But if you don't give it to them, you won't leave, and he said that if you don't give it, you will go in and get it yourself, and then you will get more than just a military account." The quartermaster's face was even more bitter.
"Bastard ......" and so on! Now that Lord Su is back, I am under the jurisdiction of Lord Su again, although I didn't give Steward Su a good look this month, but I didn't offend too much, if I didn't have a good relationship with him, maybe he would wear small shoes, why not take this opportunity to ease the relationship? Wu Tong thought to himself. Don't look at him hugging Sima Yun now, but he still has to follow Su Yun's instructions. If Su Yun gave himself small shoes to wear and sent himself outside to exterminate the mountain bandits, he would never come back.
"Give them a hundred and fifty, if they don't ask for a hundred, give them a hundred and fifty. Let's just say that we welcome our colleagues. Wu Tong said after thinking for a while. He believed that Su Yun would know what he meant, and when he was assassinated, of course he needed to switch to others, which was also a means of self-preservation. Alas! The county official might as well be in charge now, who made Su Yun his direct boss.
"Ahh To give? Or more? The quartermaster didn't understand why Qu Chang had suddenly changed his mind.
"Ahhh Give them them, you send them personally, and see what their commander-in-chief has to say? ā
The quartermaster returned to the quartermaster warehouse with a question mark in his head, and led Li Lingfeng to take away one hundred and fifty military tents, and it was a large tent that could accommodate eight to ten people.
"My lord, when they came back, it seems that they got the military tent smoothly! What you didn't expect! And it seems to have been specially delivered. Situ Liang looked at Li Lingfeng and the others who came back from the east side, and said with a smile.
"It's really coming! It's incredible! This martial arts was really given. Steward Su looked at Li Lingfeng with a few two-wheeled vehicles, and was surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but look at Zhao Xun, he thought that this young man was a reckless man, but now it seems that I am the frog at the bottom of the well, a stupid one, alas, I have lived to the belly of a dog all these years.
"My lord, this is the quartermaster over there, who specially helped us deliver the military tent." Li Lingfeng chuckled.
"Oh? Thank you so much! Before coming, Master Su also told me that the mountain bandits have been raging recently, and even the soldiers and horses of the government dare to attack, wondering whether to send someone to inspect and clean up. In this Yanzhou City, the only thing that Lord Su can directly mobilize is your fifth song. However, I see that your training is also very hard, I will mention yƬ to Master Su, and I will no longer mobilize you to go out to suppress bandits. As he spoke, he bowed his head and approached the quartermaster and said, "I thought that if you didn't give it, I would go out and pretend to be a bandit and get some money to buy it." Do you see the armor and longbow and crossbow of my soldiers? In fact, they were all obtained from the government army in this way, and it was not difficult at all. ā
The quartermaster's face turned pale when he heard this, what? We went out to suppress bandits, and you went to pretend to be mountain bandits, that is, you wanted to rob us, or even kill us, I finally understood why Lord Wu sent them military tents for nothing, and I sent them.
"Then thank you for your kind words, since the things have been delivered, I won't bother, the lower official will leave, and the five taels of cars will also be given to the adult, all of which are a little bit of the official's heart. If the adult has a need in the future, just open his mouth, and the lower official will definitely do his best to help, by the way, the lower official's surname is Yang Xu. The quartermaster thought that he must have a relationship with the young man in front of him who could go straight to the sky.
"Lord Yang, there is indeed one thing that needs your help."
"Your Excellency, please speak!"
"Zhao has just arrived, and he is not very familiar with this place, so Zhao wants to ask Lord Yang to buy some grain and grass on my behalf, I think Lord Yang will be added as a quartermaster, and he is naturally more familiar with the shops everywhere, and he will definitely handle this matter, Lord Yang can rest assured, Zhao will never let Lord Yang suffer, all the purchase of grain and grass shall be subject to the market price, and the part below the market price, we will divide it in half, how about it?"
Yang Xu was overjoyed when he heard this, with his own ability, he would definitely make a lot of money, and hurriedly said: "Okay, since Lord Zhao can afford to be a lower official, the lower official will naturally do his best to assist." ā
"Okay, I'll have someone talk to Lord Yang in detail later. Lord Yang went back and told you Qu Chang, he is a smart man, don't stand in the wrong line, if you are not careful, it will be like being crushed. Also, you are telling him that it is easy to add icing on the cake, and it is rare to send charcoal in the snow, and it is easy to make people unforgettable. ā
"Xiaguan is going to tell Master Wu."
"Your Excellency is brilliant! A few words will pull this song to our side. Situ Liang said with a smile.
"Then you have to be on top of Master Su, I kind of understand, the official level crushes people to death! Right! What a good thing! As for whether this song can fall to our side, it depends on how the song chief chooses, I hope he doesn't choose to be my enemy, otherwise, this military camp will be lively. Zhao Xun looked at Yang Xu who was far away and sighed. He thought of revenge, and his eyes were full of longing for power. Zhao Xun felt that he had never been like this now, and he had such a need and yearning for rights.
"Alright, let's stay here in peace! Situ Liang, you are a scholar here, so the logistics will be handed over to you, you will take someone to talk to him in detail later, you must solve the grain and grass, and the food we carry is only enough for three days. ā
"The little one understands!"
"Li Lingfeng, you will take someone to pick up the family of the black-clothed knight we captured last time, and place it near Su Mansion first, I will buy a few manors outside the city, and then use it as a place for the family of our new recruits. In the future, we will definitely have to recruit new soldiers and settle their families, so that we can fight to the death without worrying about the future. These black knights are truly battle-hardened warriors who can increase our power. ā
"My subordinates will do it!" After speaking, Li Lingfeng led the people to take back their families under the leadership of the black knight captives. From now on, they are also members of the Fire Lin Army.
"What? That's what the leader of the army said? After the quartermaster returned to the camp, he went straight to Qu's tent and told Wu Tong what Zhao Xun said, and Wu Tong suddenly felt that what he had done was right.
"Damn, Li Xu, what you said this guy said was true or false?"
Li Xu and Zhao Xun had already talked about business, and naturally they were a little biased towards Zhao Xun in their hearts, so they said: "Nine times out of ten, it's true, that kid is not even afraid of Lord Duwei, will he be afraid of us?" In addition, I also saw that the armor they used was indeed used by the government army, and it should be the batch that the Long Xiang army replaced some time ago, but I don't know that they robbed the government army in that place. ā
"I'm glad I came here today!" There is no war, Wutong naturally does not need to eat and live in the barracks, just need to be there at the time of the order, today I just heard that Su Yun has returned, and the team of soldiers with Su Yun is particularly fierce, and they don't even give the face of Lord Duwei. Thinking about it, Su Yun could only place this team of soldiers in the camp in the Western District, and he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he came here early.
Hearing Li Xu's words, Wu Tong's face changed, he slowly sat on the chair, and asked for a while, "Then what do you say I should do?" ā
Li Xu didn't give a direct answer, but said with a smile: "My lord, I think what the surnamed Zhao said is very reasonable, one is that he made it clear that the county officials are not as good as the current management, and Lord Su can mobilize us at any time to make us disappear without a trace; The second is that sentence, the icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow, sending charcoal in the snow seems dangerous, but the harvest is also big. Master Su is back, the dominance of Lord Sima's family is gone, and the person who has the most influence on us is Lord Su. ā
"Bump!" Wu Tong slapped the table hard, his face was certain, and said: "Okay, let's send charcoal in the snow, I don't believe it, what will Sima Yun do to me!" ā
"My lord, the guy surnamed Zhao dragged me to buy grain and grass for him!" Then Li Xu told him about cooperating with Zhao Xun again.
"Okay, get on the line with him, do as he says, you can ask for less benefits, this guy is very close to Su Yun, and it is good for us to have a good relationship with him. Tonight, we will go to Su Mansion to visit Master Su, since we want to send charcoal in the snow, then we must be clean and neat, and don't fall off at both ends. Wu Tong said with certainty, he had made up his mind to return to Su Yun's side.
