The civilization of the Ten Thousand Worlds has extremely strict control over weapons and equipment.

The minting and sale of weapons are completely prohibited by the people.

Once discovered, it is a felony.

In addition to the military, some special departments or occupations.

If they want to get a weapon.

It also needs to be reported in advance and pass a rigorous review before it can be approved.

This is no exception, even the escort team and the Spiegel Division, who are Luo Ji's cronies.

In other words, the number of weapons rotated by the army is not comparable.

That's a big deal!

A drop of cold sweat flowed down from the corner of Liu Shu's forehead.

Between the thoughts flickering, Liu Shu spoke calmly......

"Don't move around here, I'll go to the military department to confirm the situation!"

After speaking, Liu Shu hurried in the direction of the Military Department.

As the head of the Ordnance Department.

Liu Shu's status in this civilization of the Ten Thousand Worlds is definitely not low.

In the ancient days of their Celestial Empire, this was an official at the level of a six-book book.

Now that the head of the ordnance department has rushed over in person with a solemn face, how dare they slack off?

Guo Jia, who happened to be in the military department at that time, was engaged in pre-war preparations, directly met him personally.

"I've seen Lord Guo in my humble position!"

"Minister He is polite, I don't know what Minister He is here this time?"

Guo Jia said as he motioned to the assistant on the side to pour Liu Shu a cup of tea.

But at this time, Liu Shu was already in a hurry to burn his eyebrows, where was he still in the mood to drink tea?

Hurriedly handed the book in his hand to Guo Jia's eyes.

"Lord Guo, here's how it ......"

While speaking, Liu Shu quickly said the whole thing.

After listening, Guo Jia's face could be said to be solemn all of a sudden.

At the same time, he quickly took the register and looked through it.

"One hundred and twenty-three bronze knives are missing, and three hundred and nineteen bronze spears are missing?!"

Seeing this number, Guo Jia directly gasped in his heart.

This is a big deal! This number can directly arm an army!

"Minister He, when you first received these batches of weapons and equipment, did you carefully count and check the numbers?"

Guo Jia quickly asked out loud while looking through the register.

Hearing this question, Liu Shu's expression was obviously stiff.

"At that time, the Ordnance Department had a lot of work at hand, and the snowstorm followed, so there was no extra time to carry out the inventory."

"That's the problem......"

Hearing this, Guo Jia's brows furrowed more and more.

If Liu Shuyou had counted and checked the number of those weapons at that time, and confirmed that the numbers were correct.

Then the missing weapons now can only be said to have been lost later.

The scope of the search can be narrowed down a lot at once.

But the current situation has not been counted.

That's too big.

You have to start checking from the time when each military company picks up weapons!

Liu Shu obviously knew this in his heart.

All of a sudden, the whole heart was directly hanging over his throat.

At that time, the workload of their ordnance department was indeed very heavy.

But failing to count and check the weapons and equipment sent by the military in time is indeed a dereliction of duty!

One hundred and twenty-three bronze swords, three hundred and nineteen bronze spears!!

If these weapons can't be recovered.

Then he, the minister of the Ministry of Ordnance, is also at the end, and if his life can be saved, it is already an extrajudicial favor from His Majesty the Emperor!

Just when Liu Shu was worried about this incident.

Guo Jia, who was sitting on the main seat, fell into deep thought while flipping through the registration book......

"With so many weapons, if they are stolen, then this thief must be a little too rampant."

"Although, according to the information registered in this register, these stolen weapons were divided into several batches, each batch was missing a dozen or twenty pieces, and it was intended to be stolen in batches, so that the person in charge of transporting them could not easily detect something wrong in terms of quantity."

"But the other party probably didn't expect that because of the heavy daily work of the Ordnance Department and the sudden snowstorm, so many batches of weapons that needed to be polished and recast were all piled together, and it has been delayed until now that the inventory and verification have been uniformly carried out."

"However, according to the control of weapons and equipment in our Ten Thousand Realms Civilization, even if there are less than ten or twenty of them, they will definitely be searched, and it is impossible to act as if it never happened."

"In other words, the thief is either from the Ordnance Department or has an associate in the Ordnance Department who conceals the change in the number of weapons......"

As soon as he thought of this, Guo Jia asked decisively......

"Minister He, on weekdays, are the weapons and equipment in this rotation personally supervised and checked by you?"

Hearing this, Liu Shu shook his head.

"No, in the past, this work was handed over to Xiao Wang in the department to do."

Liu Shu: After all, he is a minister.

Inventory and reconciliation of the weapons that have been rotated.

This matter is not serious, but it is not light.

But there is no need for him, as a minister, to do it himself.

This time he was there, and he could only be said to have just remembered the large number of rotated weapons piled up in the department's warehouse.

The number is a bit huge, so he directly called a whole department of people to run to help with the inventory.

I want to get it done as quickly as possible.

He himself is certainly no exception.

As a result, he checked this and directly checked the problem.

"Who is Xiao Wang?"

"Xiao Wang's full name is Wang Zhong, and he probably came to our ordnance department more than half a year ago."

After speaking, Liu Shu's face changed, as if he realized something.

"Lord Guo, do you suspect that Wang Zhong stole those weapons and equipment?"

Faced with this question, Guo Jia said with a calm face......

"The weapon was stolen, I don't believe this is the first time, and it just happened to be bumped into by you, Minister He."

"According to my assumptions, I'm afraid that some of the weapons that have been rotated before have been stolen."

"It's just that Minister He doesn't know about it."

"And every time the weapons are rotated, the military and the ordnance department have to count and check them according to the process."

"In other words, if a thief wants to steal a weapon, it is impossible to hide it until now."

Speaking of this, a faint chill flashed in Guo Jia's eyes......

"If you want to steal a weapon without knowing it, you must need more than two accomplices."

"And these two accomplices have to serve in the military and the ordnance department respectively."

"Under this premise, the person who has been responsible for counting and checking the number of weapons and equipment can't get rid of it."

Liu Shu, who heard this, was shocked and angry in his heart.

"I'll call someone to arrest that kid Wang Zhong now!"

"Minister Ho, slow down."

Looking at Liu Shu, who was about to arrest someone in anger, Guo Jia shouted to stop him......

"If Wang Zhong is really an accomplice of the thieves, then when you find out that the number is wrong, he should realize that the matter has been exposed."

"Lord Guo, what do you think?"

"Shun Teng, take this gang of thieves in one pot!"

As he spoke, the corners of Guo Jia's mouth slightly hooked up a cold arc.

"Before that, I also asked Minister He to pretend to have a conflict with the Military Department and look angry, so that the thief would think that we had not suspected him, so as to relax his vigilance and show his fox tail!"
