Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.inforeadx;? Shangguan Xiu asked Xiao Jue to ghostwrite and write a letter to Tang Ling, proposing that he would take over the military power of all the Feng Army in Mingshui County.

However, Shangguan Xiu's letter has not yet been delivered to Shangjing, only five days apart, and the flying pigeon from Shangjing has arrived at the Fengjun camp first.

This flying pigeon biography is Tang Ling's will, just one sentence, summoning Shangguanxiu to return to Beijing immediately,

The war has broken out in full swing, the war between the two countries is in full swing, at this critical moment, how can Shangguan Xiu go away, after reading this few numbers of flying pigeon biography, Shangguan Xiu pursed the corners of his mouth, beckoned to Wu Yufei on the side, and said: "Fire Fold,"

Wu Yufei took out the fire fold, unscrewed it, and handed it to Shangguan Xiu, who blew the fire fold and burned the book.

Xiao Jue explained: "Some time ago, Brother Xiu suddenly disappeared in Ningnan, Your Majesty was sad and depressed, so he fell seriously ill, and now that Brother Xiu has returned, His Majesty will never dare to let Brother Xiu stay in Ningnan anymore,"

Tang Ling's thoughts, Shangguan Xiu can also understand, but now he really can't get out of his body, at least until he has a decisive advantage, he can't leave,

While they were talking, a wind soldier walked in briskly from outside, intervened to give a salute, and said, "Your Highness, General Cai asks to see you,"

"Yes, please,"

After a short time, Cai Heng walked in from outside, and when he approached Shangguan Xiu, he knelt on one knee and said, "See Your Highness for your subordinates," and now in front of Shangguan Xiu, he is no longer calling himself the last general, but claiming to be a subordinate, which invisibly narrows the relationship between the two.

Shangguan Xiu smiled, waved his hand and said, "General Cai doesn't have to be polite,"

"Your Majesty," Cai Heng got up, cleared his throat, and said straight to the point: "Your Highness, General He and his subordinates led two corps to attack Leping County for a long time, 20,000 brothers, and in the end only 300 people came back, more than 10,000 soldiers, blood spilled on the battlefield, buried bones in a foreign land, they are all heroes of my gale wind,"

Shangguan Xiu nodded, indicating that Cai Heng was right, Cai Heng continued: "Since they are heroic martyrs, they should not be sacrificed in vain, His Royal Highness also said that the families of heroic martyrs should be given heavy pensions,"

"That's right, it deserves a heavy pension,"

"But Your Highness, after so many days, the pensions of the fallen soldiers have been missing for a long time, and please ask Your Highness to be aware of it," as he spoke, Cai Heng knelt on the ground again and kowtowed forward,

Hearing this, Shangguan Xiu's brows immediately furrowed, and his figure straightened up,

Wu Yufei immediately stepped forward and helped Shangguan Xiu up from the bed, he walked up to Cai Heng, took his arm, pulled him up from the ground, and asked in a condensed voice: "The pension for the fallen has not been issued until now,"

"Yes, Your Highness," Cai Heng's eyes turned red, he bit his lower lip tightly, and nodded in response,

"What is Pang Ying doing, why is he reluctant to issue a bereavement pension?"

Cai Heng shook his head and said: "Your Highness misunderstood, General Pang asked General Wei Chi for money and silver, but General Pang's documents were submitted, like a stone sinking into the sea, and General Wei Chi did not move at all,"

"How can this be reasonable," Shangguan Xiu already had a very bad impression of Wei Chizhen, and now when he heard that he had deducted the pension of the fallen soldiers, his anger burned up all of a sudden.

He pondered for a moment, patted Cai Heng's shoulder with an unkind face, and said, "I'll deal with this matter,"

Cai Heng sniffed hard, rubbed his eyes again, choked and said, "Fortunately, His Highness is here, if His Highness is not there, if no one is willing to make decisions for the brothers, this is ...... This is too chilling for the brothers, the brothers in the army are not afraid of death, since we dare to come to join the army, we will put life and death aside as soon as possible, just afraid, we are only afraid that death is not worth it,"

For what he said, Shangguan Xiu can understand very much, sacrifice his life for the country and die a glorious death, but the old fathers and mothers, wives and children in the family also need to be supported, if they can't even get a pension after death, who is willing to go to the battlefield to fight hard,

Thinking of this, Shangguan Xiu's chest felt stuffy for a while, and he couldn't help coughing violently,

Wu Yufei hurriedly pulled out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Shangguan Xiu's hand, the latter picked up the handkerchief, covered his mouth, and coughed for a while, he stopped coughing, and when he put down the handkerchief, the white handkerchief was full of red spots,

"Temple...... Your Highness ......" Cai Heng looked at it, his face changed greatly, and he said in a trembling voice,

"It's okay," Shangguan Xiu waved his hand at him, disapprovingly wrapped the handkerchief and stuffed it into his cuffs, and then took the teacup handed by Xiao Jue, and drank two glasses of water in a row, and his face eased a little.

He took a deep breath and asked, "Where is Yu Chizhen now?"

"General Wei Chi is in the Chinese military tent,"

"Okay, I'll go find him," Shangguan Xiu's stomach was angry, and he couldn't get out after a violent cough, only his strength remained, and with the support of Xiao Jue, Wu Yufei, Cai Heng and others, Shangguan Xiu went to the Zhongjun tent,

There were not many people in the Chinese military tent, only Wei Chizhen and a few strategists were there, and when they saw Shangguan Xiu coming, Yu Chizhen and the others hurriedly got up, bowed down and saluted, and said: "The last general (villain) see His Royal Highness,"

Looking at Wei Chizhen, who bowed down, Shangguan Xiu was silent for a long time, and then said, "Flat,"

"Your Highness Xie," Wei Chizhen thanked him, straightened up, and saw Shangguan Xiu's face pale, and asked with concern, "How is Your Highness's health today?"

"Not so good,"

"......" didn't expect Shangguan Xiu to be so direct, and Wei Chizhen didn't know how to answer for a while.

After a pause, he suddenly remembered something, ordered the attendants on the left and right to pour tea, and after the attendants handed over the tea, he said: "Your Highness has just recovered from a serious injury, you should not work too hard, and you should focus on your body,"

"I don't want to work hard either, but there are always people who can't make me settle down," Shangguan Xiu glanced at him and walked past him,

Bypassing the handsome case, he sat in the back with a big grin, Wei Chizhen secretly smiled bitterly, it seems that His Royal Highness the Duke of the Kingdom is here to find his own fault.

He leaned over and asked, "Your Highness is here, but there is something,"

"It's okay, I can't come to your Zhongjun account, right?"

"The last general will not dare,"

"Wei Chizhen, you are so bold, what are you afraid to do," Shangguan Xiu picked up the teacup, said with a sneer, and then drank the tea slowly,

At the entrance of the tea, he frowned, poofed, spit out a mouthful of tea foam, he opened the lid of the cup, looked inside, okay, the tea leaves inside are all tea dregs, floating a thick layer on the tea water,

Is this tea for people to drink, Shangguan Xiu put the teacup on the table heavily, didn't bother to talk nonsense with Yu Chizhen anymore, and said bluntly: "Wei Chizhen, let me ask you, when do you plan to issue the pension for the fallen soldiers in Leping County,"

"This ......" Wei Chi Zhen cleared his throat unnaturally, and said in a low voice: "The last general...... The end will be issued as soon as possible,"

"As soon as possible, it's a few days, three days, three months, or three years," Shangguan Xiu asked step by step.

"This ......" Wei Chizhen couldn't answer, lowered his head, and was silent,

Seeing this, Shangguan Xiu was so angry that he slapped the case, and asked angrily: "Could it be that you can't swallow all the soldiers' pensions privately?"

"The last general will not dare," Wei Chizhen's body was shocked, he knelt on his knees, and kowtowed forward,

"Don't tell me whether you dare or not, I'll ask you, where is the pension for the fallen soldiers, where is it now," If it weren't for the injury, if it wasn't for the inconvenience, Shangguan Xiu really wanted to draw his knife now, and directly slashed Wei Chizhen,

Wei Chizhen sighed, stood up from the ground, and said, "Your Highness, please follow the end of the future," as he spoke, he turned around and walked out, Shangguan Xiu suppressed his anger, and with the support of Xiao Jue and Wu Yufei, he also walked out of the camp.

Outside the Chinese military tent, Wei Chizhen took Shangguan Xiu and walked to the Fengjun silver vault near the Chinese military tent.

Standing outside the silver vault, Shangguan Xiu asked expressionlessly, "Wei Chizhen, what are you taking me here for?"

"Your Highness enters, you will know at a glance,"

Shangguan Xiu glanced at him, and walked towards the silver treasury, Wei Chizhen followed, Cai Heng originally wanted to follow up, but at the gate, he was stopped by the guards, even if he was the deputy commander, he was not qualified to enter the silver treasury.

The silver treasury of the wind army is a huge camp tent, divided into two layers inside and outside, in the middle of the mezzanine, there are a large number of wind army guards, walking into the inner layer of the camp tent, what catches the eye is a mouthful of large boxes, Wei Chi Zhen waved his hand and said: "Please Your Highness take a look,"

Shangguan Xiuhu looked at it suspiciously, walked to the front of a box, opened the lid of the box, and looked inside, it was an open space, not even a silver slag, he asked Xiao Jue to move the box away, and opened the lid below, it was still empty, and there was not a single ingot of silver.

He walked to the depths of the treasury in disbelief, and opened the lids on the left and right sides one by one, all of them were empty boxes, and he couldn't even see the shadow of the silver, and roughly checked it from beginning to end, except for the empty boxes or empty boxes,

Wei Chizhen smiled bitterly and said: "Now, Your Highness should understand why the last general has not been able to pay the bereavement of the fallen soldiers, the army has been out of money for more than two months, and now, the soldiers of the whole army are still in arrears for two months,"

"How can this be," Shangguan Xiu frowned, the total treasury of the five legions didn't even have a tael of silver, how did this battle be fought,

Wei Chizhen said: "Before our army set out, the imperial court allocated a batch of military salaries, and a month after our army entered Ningnan to fight, the imperial court allocated another batch of military salaries, and since then, there has been no military salary to be transported, and the last general has also been to the imperial court many times, asking the imperial court to allocate silver as soon as possible, but there has been no movement on the imperial court's side," As he spoke, he knelt on the ground again and said, "Please forgive your highness,"

The court does not allocate silver, then, if the army can't send out the pension, it has nothing to do with Wei Chizhen, Shangguan Xiu waved his hand to him, signaling Wei Chizhen to get up, he lowered his eyes, and quickly calculated in his heart, before the war, the treasury of the Feng Army was indeed not abundant, so he asked the ministers to donate later,

The silver deposit in the treasury, coupled with the donations of the ministers, should not be a problem to support the national war for a year and a half, how can it be that the war has only been fought for a few months, and there is no silver on the side of the imperial court, he was mentally calculating, and muttered: "Where did the silver of the imperial court go?"
