"You also know what the situation is now, my lord has not been in charge of the military department for a long time, and he has been quite constrained in doing things, and my lord only learned about your coming to ask for food yesterday, so he sent me early in the morning. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Luo Shiji thought that he would encounter a lot of difficulties when he came to the military department again today, but he didn't expect things to go unexpectedly smoothly, Wang Jihe, the secretary of the military department, sent his cronies to accompany him to go through the relevant procedures in various parts of the military department, and he kept explaining to him along the way.

"Thank you Lord Shangshu for your kindness, and Lord Shangshu's kindness will be remembered by the official." Luo Shiji also knew that the military department had been run by Yuan Rukui for many years, maybe the main thing that made it difficult for him a few days ago was because of Yuan Rukui's instructions, but he didn't believe that Wang Jihe was a person who was dedicated to the public, since the other party treated him so well, he would have something to ask for, but since Xu Zhixian didn't open his mouth, he was happy to pretend to be confused, of course, some superficial gratitude still had to be shown, no matter what, it was their side who got the benefits after all.

"The little officials in the granary outside Beijing are not easy to deal with, since the formalities of the military department have been completed, I will simply accompany you to the granary!" Since Xu Zhixian did things, he simply did it thoroughly, went to Beijing to show the documents, mobilized the soldiers and horses who escorted the grain and grass, and took Luo Shiji to the granary outside the city.

"Get military rations and go to Henan Province to supply the Hedong thief army?" The ambassador Cang, who had a big belly, didn't even bother to get up when he saw Luo Shiji, so he crossed Erlang's legs and took the document and read it in a long voice.

"Yes, please do your best." After that, Luo Shiji took out a silver ticket from his sleeve and handed it over, this is inevitable, whether it is to take grain and grass or ordnance, it is indispensable to send a meaning to the officials guarding the warehouse, otherwise you will wait in line there, they have a reason to make things difficult for you.

Regardless of the people next to him, Ambassador Cang generously took the silver ticket and looked at the numbers on it, but he was quite satisfied, "Well, since the procedures are complete, let's come and get the food tomorrow!" ”

"It's... At present, the military situation in Henan Province is urgent, and I hope that the adults can allocate it as soon as possible. Luo Shiji couldn't wait, he continued to plead, one more day of delay in Hedong to beg for the thief army, there would be more danger of running out of food.

Ambassador Cang was about to speak, Xu Zhixian coughed lightly and stood up, I don't know what he showed Ambassador Cang, the other party immediately stood up, nodded and said yes, "The little one knows, since the military situation is urgent, then the small one will go and arrange it for you!" With that, the warehouse immediately became busy, and bags of grain were sent out of the room.

Luo Shiji didn't dare to be sloppy in the slightest, and personally led people to check the quality and quantity of the grain, and he was very pleased that the grain this time turned out to be last year's old rice, not the kind of garbage that had been put for several years and was about to rot; If it weren't for Master Xu, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get this kind of good rice, and Luo Shiji added a little gratitude in his heart.

"My lord, everything has been checked clearly, a total of seven thousand and forty-five stones." After being busy, the total amount of food he got this time was summarized by Luo Shiji, and he raised his eyes to look at Ambassador Cang.

"Drift!" Ambassador Cang squeezed out two words between his teeth, the drifting of thirty percent was really normal for them, and the grain, grass and ordnance allocated to Zhang Guo's army in the past were also distributed according to this standard.

Xu Zhixian did not say a word about this, he knew that there were many powerful people who benefited from this, even with Wang Jihe's family background and official position, he would not challenge the unspoken rules.

"I understand, I understand!" Although he felt sorry for the more than 3,000 stone grain, Luo Shiji was not a reckless Qin Shixin after all, he knew the importance of it, and thanked Ambassador Guocang and Xu Zhixian again at the moment, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, Bai Shengsheng gave him 3,000 stone of grain, and even thanked him, so does it make sense?

Counting the days are not far from the cut off of food and grass for the thief army in Hedong, Luo Shiji did not dare to delay, and after coming out, he sent someone to the inn to pick up Qin Shixin and take care of his own soldiers, he planned to leave the capital today and go to Henan Road, "I wrote the great kindness of Wang Shangshu and Master Xu, and the next time I enter Beijing, I will definitely visit him." ”

"This is a proper thing, my family has a lot of praise for Ambassador Zhang, and I have long wanted to make friends, but unfortunately Ambassador Zhang is out to ask for thieves, so I can't meet, since Luo Jiyi has something important to do, Xu doesn't dare to stay longer, and the next time Luo Jiyi enters Beijing, Xu will definitely set up a banquet to catch the wind." After that, Xu Zhi first took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over, "This is my greeting from my family to Ambassador Zhang, and I hope Luo Jiyi will send it to Ambassador Zhang." ”

"I will definitely hand it over to Master Zhang in the next place." After that, Luo Shiji took the letter and put it away closely, he had already heard some meaning from Xu Zhixian's words, but he didn't dare to express his position easily about this kind of big thing, so he could only guarantee that the letter would be sent to Zhang Guo.

Not long after, Qin Shixin was pulled over by the carriage, and the team embarked on the road to Henan Road, Luo Shiji worked hard along the way, and finally rushed to send these hard-won grains to Zhang Guo's army before the thieves ran out of food in Hedong.

After the handover, he found an opportunity to have no outsiders, Luo Shiji handed Wang Jihe's letter to Zhang Guo, Zhang Guo opened it and looked at it, he was silent for a long time, and when Luo Shiji asked him, he replied, "Wang Shangshu wants the official to form a party with him, if the official agrees, he will find a way to transfer the official to the capital, and these soldiers and horses under the official can also be arranged in the forbidden army." ”

Leaving Henan Road, which is full of thieves, and going to the capital, if it is put on ordinary people, it would be a good thing, but Zhang Guo didn't see it that way, he turned around and looked at the map in the tent and said, "Now that there are thieves everywhere, how can this official bear to ignore the people of Henan Province for his own selfishness?" ”

Now the virtues of the officers and soldiers in various places are clear, if he leads He Dongping's thief army into Beijing, then not only will Henan Province be in chaos, but even the four provinces in Hedong where the thieves have been exterminated will be resurrected, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

"I wrote a reply letter to Wang Shang, explaining the difficulties of Henan Province, and I hope Wang Shangshu can understand." After that, Zhang Guo bent down and sat down, and after a while, he wrote an extremely sincere letter; Luo Shiji, who was waiting for the pen and ink on the side, wanted to speak and stopped, Master Zhang had already offended Yuan Rukui, and even Wang Jihe was offended by handing over the letter! But when he had followed Zhang Guo for a long time, he knew his adult temperament, so he didn't say anything to dissuade him.

"Humph! I don't know what to do! The letter was slapped on the table by Wang Jihe, and now there is an undercurrent in the court, how can you be left alone, "Since this person can't be used by me, then don't care about him anymore!" In the future, I will ask the military department for supplies, and everything will be done according to the rules! Wang Jihe said the word rules heavily. (To be continued.) )
