Chapter 387:-for-tat
"Let's go to the well." Qiao Fang took his subordinates to the well of the local grain depot. Then they called for a cat and a dog to come over. Sure enough, the water from the well, which seemed to have no problems, was poured into the cats and dogs, and they were drunk.
"What a terrible anesthetic. I was able to go down to the well water, but I didn't smell at all when I put people down. Qiao Fang thought to himself.
"Is this well guarded?" Qiao Fang asked the captain of the grain team beside him.
The captain of the grain team had woken up, and was sincerely apprehensive to accompany the greatest magistrate he had ever seen in his life to inspect his work. The captain replied, "The well is guarded every day. However, no anomalous human arrivals have been observed recently. Either their own people come to drink the water, or the people who carry and collect the grain come to drink the water. If someone spills something into the water, they will definitely be discovered. ”
"Do you know all the people who carry and collect grain? Is it guaranteed to be foolproof? Qiao Fang asked.
The captain blushed and hurriedly begged for mercy: "The Metropolitan Governor spares his life." The villain is ignorant and says the wrong thing. Indeed, there are many and mixed people who carry and take grain, and they cannot be recognized. But whoever can enter the gate of this grain depot has a way. If you don't have a way, you won't be able to get in. ”
Qiao Fang snorted and said sarcastically: "The enemy pretended to be a grain transport team to sneak in, drugged the well, and burned the bunker while you were asleep. You, the captain, are still in the dark. ”
The captain was so frightened that he fell to his knees: "The villain deserves death." The little ones are guilty. I begged the governor to spare the villain's life for the sake of the villain's many years of service, and for the sake of my brother-in-law Wei Zhou's joining the army Jiang Ji. ”
Qiao Fang sneered: "Jiang Ji? If something happens to you, he'll have to suffer from you. You're counting on moving him out to protect you! Say, what's going on with the sand and gravel in the bunker? ”
The captain kowtowed like pounding garlic: "The villain doesn't know!" The villain really doesn't know! Each batch of rice in the warehouse has been inspected by more than one person, how, how, how it will turn into sand and gravel, and the villain does not know. Maybe it was those who set the fire, replaced before setting the fire. ”
Qiao Fang sneered: "You're embarrassed to say that you have been working for many years!" How long do you think it will take to transport half of the bunker's sand and gravel? ”
"Go back, go back, go back to the Grand Governor, at least, at least three days."
"Then you say how those who set fires can be exchanged for food overnight."
"The villain is stupid, and he really can't think of how the thief did it. But this really has nothing to do with villains! The villain is wronged! The Governor spares his life! The captain was so frightened that his teeth were chattering, but he still didn't dare to tell the truth.
"It seems that you have been sleeping for a bit long, and everyone is sleeping, so let you wake up for two days and then talk back." Qiao Fang turned his head and signaled, and the two subordinates left and right carried the captain away, only to hear the captain's cry for mercy deafening.
There is no doubt that the fire in the bunker was set by someone sent by Zhen Zhen, and this is a clear gun. However, some people bought off the grain transportation team, and used sand and gravel to pass off as grain, which means that someone in the DPRK and China used hidden arrows to frame them. Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend. And this dark arrow from behind is even more deadly.
Fortunately, he found it early, if he suddenly found that there was no food when he was in the middle of the war, not only would this battle not be able to continue, but there would also be a danger of annihilation. It seems that political opponents can't wait to get started.
Qiao Fang ordered his subordinates: "Send another thousand people to take over the local grain depot." All the members of the current grain convoy were disarmed and detained for interrogation. It's important to figure out where the sand and gravel come from. Where did the grain that should have been put in storage go? Those who report clues will not be blamed for the past and will be given travel expenses to go home. If you conceal it and don't report it, you will be dealt with by military law! Check the bottom account, which grain merchant has sent military rations and entered the bunker recently, and there is no suspicious situation. In addition, the soldiers and horses between the old elm and Tonglin Pass were ordered to stop moving forward and be ready to retreat at any time. ”
The subordinates were shocked: "Governor, we have the advantage in the battle in Tonglin Pass now." Once we retreat, the results of our hard work in front of us will be nullified! Please think twice. ”
Qiao Fang sneered: "Do you think the old man doesn't want to cross the river?" Do you think the old man doesn't want to attack Rutonglin Pass? Do you think the old man is old and timid? ”
"The subordinates don't dare."
"If it weren't for this fire, who would have found that there was sand and gravel in the rations? The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first, indicating that before this expedition, someone secretly did something. How do you know that these hands and feet have only made one piece of food? When this battle starts, when you want nothing or nothing, you will know what it means to kill with a knife. ”
"The Metropolitan Governor thinks that this is a deliberate frame-up? But the matter of grain and grass has always been presided over by the prince. Who would dare to fool the prince? ”
It was about the prince, Qiao Fang couldn't easily draw conclusions, and remedied: "There are also people who do things below to deceive and conceal them. Before figuring it out, it's better to err on the side of caution. Over the years, we have gained so many benefits in Weizhou, and there will still be people who are red-eyed. Go check it out. ”
The subordinates took the order and left, Qiao Fang returned to his inner account, thinking that no matter who played a conspiracy to frame him, he couldn't carry the black cauldron that the lack of food led to the withdrawal of the troops and even the defeat, and the loss of the 200,000 soldiers in Weizhou was the smallest when the time came.
Where there is life, there is hope. As long as people are still there, everything is easy to say.
So Qiao Fang lit the oil lamp and wrote a secret letter to the emperor and the prince respectively, requesting that the attack on Ningguo be stopped and the adulteration of military rations should be thoroughly investigated. Then it was sent out overnight in an expedited manner of 800 miles.
However, he said that Ye Wei sent the people back to Qishan Pass that day, and he took the twenty people left by Xu Zhi into the cave. All the way along the dark river, there are signs left by Xu Zhi, and they arrive at the territory of Yuantai. Xu Zhi left someone to answer at the entrance of the cave.
As soon as the two groups of people met, they connected each other's grasps, and a bold plan was formed.
In the past two days, Xu Zhi has sent people to find out the deployment of troops and the time of grain transportation in the bunker grain depot. So he was able to "meet" a grain merchant in the wine shop, and the two talked happily, and finally the grain merchant agreed to take Xu Zhi into the grain depot to see the world, and by the way to see if there was a chance to make a fortune.
After entering the grain depot, Xu Zhi found a well in the name of fetching water to drink on a hot day. While fetching water, he "accidentally" dropped the sheepskin water bag into the well, but quickly retrieved it. All this happened under the nose of Yuan Taibing, who was guarding the well. What Yuan Taibing didn't expect was that the open-mouthed sheepskin bag was the drunken fish grass juice. Xu Zhi dropped it, and the drunken fish grass juice dissolved into the well water. After Xu Zhi "opened his eyes", he left the grain depot with the grain merchant, and Xu Zhi also made an appointment with the other party to do a big business together, before he went to find Ye Wei to meet.
The faint drunken fish grass juice was colorless and tasteless, and the Yuan Taibing who guarded the grain depot ate and drank all the water from this well, and fell asleep in the evening.
