"Who? Who the hell did it! I'm going to kill him! Wang Yuze said with red eyes. Selling inferior cotton clothes to soldiers who have to fight in the ice and snow is simply mad! No matter who it is, they can't tolerate such a thing, let alone Wang Yuze is still the emperor! When he saw the soldiers who had been amputated because of frostbite in the field hospital this afternoon, he was already furious. He had already secretly sworn in his heart that no matter who was involved in this matter, he would never be spared!

"Your Majesty, it was picked by a businessman from Jinling, and a total of five businessmen colluded in it!" Wang Wei replied!

"Humph! Wang Wei, are you a fool to me? Can a few small businessmen buy off the deputy director of the logistics department? It has been concealed for so long that those military high-ranking officials have not reported it! Honestly, is there sleep involved? Wang Yuze said coldly. It is absolutely impossible for a few businessmen to sell so many low-quality cotton clothes to the military. You must know that the procurement of logistical materials for the imperial army is very strict, and everything must go through strict examination.

"Your Majesty, it was Yang Hong's kid who did it! He must have been prodded by those businessmen and helped dredge up the relationship between the logistics department, so that those inferior cotton clothes could be sold into the army! Wang Wei replied honestly!

"So it's him? All right! It's okay to do evil in normal times, but now you dare to put your claws into the army, it's like looking for death! Wang Wei, immediately send a telegram to your people, arrest all those involved in the case, and don't let anyone go! Wang Yuze said in a cold tone. Yang Hong is Wang Yuze's brother-in-law and the youngest son of former Prime Minister Yang Hua. A boy who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, relying on the name of Lao Tzu, usually does evil! It's just that because a family member wiped his buttocks, and it wasn't a big deal, Wang Yuze turned a blind eye! He never thought that this kid would dare to get involved in selling inferior products to the army, did he really think that no one in the entire empire would dare to touch him?

"Your Majesty, Yang Hong, that kid should have been blinded, he definitely didn't have the guts!" Wang Wei hesitated for a moment, and then said. After all, Yang Hong's identity is there, whether it is the brother-in-law of the emperor or the son of the former prime minister, this has to be weighed by ordinary people, if the Ministry of Homeland Security rashly breaks into the Yang Mansion to arrest people, it will definitely cause an uproar in the empire, which will have a strict impact on the stability of the empire. Moreover, the harmony of Wang Yuze's harem may also be affected!

"No need to talk nonsense, carry out the order! This time, I just want them to know that those who dare to reach out to the army will definitely not end well! Whoever does that, be prepared to lose your head! "Wang Yuze is very resolute! During the war, the consumption of military spending was already quite staggering. Although the arsenal undertook the manufacture of weapons, ammunition and other equipment for the imperial army, the supply of clothing, clothing, hats, and food was changed to private enterprises.

The supply of the army has always been a big piece of fat, attracting many merchants to chase after it. But the requirements for quality are also very high. Originally, Wang Yuze thought that under strict scrutiny, there would be no problems, but he didn't expect that those guys still dared to go crooked. No matter what, Wang Yuze has already made up his mind to stop this unhealthy trend. He believes that it is not only the cotton clothes that are problematic, but other munitions may also be problematic, but they are not so strict. If you can deal with this incident strictly, maybe you can play a role in killing chickens and monkeys!

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wang Wei nodded and left Wang Yuze's house, preparing to give an order to the people of the Department of Homeland Security, asking them to prepare to arrest those unscrupulous businessmen and Yang Hong! Wang Wei knew that Wang Yuze was really angry this time, these guys would definitely be severely punished, and they would really fall to the ground!

Wang Wei left, and Wang Yuze, Chief of the General Staff Cai Yun, and Minister of National Defense Jiang Xingguo were left in the room. Because the army is involved, the faces of the two are also very ugly. Because of the presence of moths in the army, the inferior munitions of unscrupulous merchants were able to flow into the army. Moreover, the generals of the army did not seem to be unaware, but they had always kept it secret, which made them very angry. Although the brother-in-law of the emperor and the son of the former prime minister have been involved, they still think that this issue is very strict. The war against Russia will soon begin, and the appearance of such a problem will undoubtedly have a great impact on the morale of the troops!

"Say! How many people in the army were involved this time? Wang Yuze glanced at Cai Yun and Jiang Xingguo, and then said!

"Your Majesty, the highest officer is the deputy director of the logistics department, and there are also several colonel-level officers and a group of lieutenant-level officers. The main thing is the military supply of cotton clothes! Its supplies have not yet been discovered! Chief of the General Staff Cai Yun said. Because the main munitions of the team are made by the army's own arsenal, and there are only a few private merchants involved!

"Is there only one deputy director of the logistics department? And what about those commanders of the army group? I just don't believe they don't know anything about it? If you are informed, why not report it? Wang Yuze roared angrily! If the problem had been detected earlier, the losses might have been minimized, and there would not have been so many non-combat attrition due to frostbite! For the life of every soldier, Wang Yuze cherishes it very much. The fate of these soldiers is on the way to charge the enemy, not because of the damn weather!

"Your Majesty, because the situation is not very strict, the commanders of all the group armies did not report it! After all, you and the former prime minister are involved! Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo said.

"Damn! How big are the losses of the army? Wang Yuze slapped the table hard

"Your Majesty, our army deployed in Central Asia and Siberia, due to frostbite, has a total of more than 13,000 non-combat attrition, of which more than 1,000 are killed, more than 4,000 are seriously wounded, and the rest are lightly wounded!" Chief of the General Staff Cai Yun said! Serious injuries are those that have had their hands or legs and fingers amputated, resulting in severe disability. Minor injuries can restore combat effectiveness!

"Dog rì! Depart early tomorrow morning and return to běijīng, don't clean up those guys, and never give up! Wang Yuze said viciously. Five or six thousand soldiers were killed and seriously wounded! The loss of so many troops before the battle even began, is it because of those moths! These soldiers who were supposed to work hard for the empire on the battlefield now paid for their lives or suffered heavy losses for such reasons, which made Wang Yuze's heart hold back a raging anger!

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do with this?" Chief of General Staff Cai Yun asked with some concern. Obviously, if the commanders of the military's group armies do not report their knowledge, Wang Yuze will certainly not say anything about it. If it was in normal times, it would be a big deal to replace all these guys. But the war against Russia is about to begin! If you change generals in battle, it will cause the morale of the troops to plummet!

Wang Yuze was also a little hesitant, although these generals were at most a crime of knowing and not reporting, and they were not very strict! But what displeased Wang Yuze was that they did not take the lives of ordinary soldiers seriously. Even if the other party has a big background, but they have been soldiers for so many years, don't they still know Wang Yuze's attitude towards the army? Any act that dares to stretch out an outstretched hand to the army and harm the interests of the army is absolutely not allowed!

"The main generals of those group armies, each of them has a jǐng notice, and there is no chance of promotion in two years! In the future, such a thing will never be allowed, otherwise, they will take off their military uniforms themselves! As for those in the logistics department, they will be tried by a military court! Wang Yuze said coldly!

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Chief of the General Staff Cai Yun and Minister of Defense Jiang Xingguo both replied. After hearing Wang Yuze's handling method, they were also relieved. Now that the war is about to begin, it is obviously inappropriate to punish the generals in the army. They also believe that these senior generals in the army are not too involved in this matter, but they are just forced to turn a blind eye because the other party's background is too big. Although they are not allowed to be promoted for two years, it is very likely that they will miss this promotion opportunity, but they have managed to keep their military uniforms! Even if this world war is over, it will not be long before the Germans will compete for world supremacy. As long as you can continue to lead troops to fight, you still have a chance! As for the moths in the logistics department, if they are tried by a military court, they will definitely not end well, and they will be directly sentenced to death! The laws within the army are already much stricter!

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do with those merchants and Yang Hong?" Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo asked.

"Those who dare to harm the interests of the army will be killed!" Wang Yuze said resolutely! He would never allow such a thing to happen again, so he had to deal with it strictly this time. Use the blood of these men to deter others who have bad intentions. Otherwise, they would dare to sell inferior cotton clothes to the army now, and tomorrow they will replace all military supplies with inferior products! When the time comes, will the Emperor ** team still be able to defeat the enemy?

Cai Yun, Chief of the General Staff, and Jiang Xingguo, Minister of National Defense, didn't say anything more, and they could see from Wang Yuze's expression that Wang Yuze had made up his mind this time, even if Yang Hong was Wang Yuze's brother-in-law, he planned to deny his six relatives!
