Li Siye sneered: "Since I don't want to say it, then I have to report this matter, as the new guard and capture envoy, such a big thing as losing armor, of course I can't carry this pot."

When Yu Zhushu heard this, he understood that Li Shou's words meant something else, and hurriedly gave a few senior envoys a look, and after these people hesitated and were at a loss, they glanced at each other again, and then they all crossed their hands and said, "We, we sold these armors."

"Sold?" Li Siye gasped, these people were so bold that they dared to sell the armor and weapons issued by the imperial court.

"Where did it go?"

"Under my rule, no one dares to buy your armor, unless you sell it to the enemy country, sell it to the Turgish? Tibetans? Or was it sold to the Great and Small Bolu Kingdom, and sold to the Great Food?"

One of the chiefs whispered, "The Great Eclipse is not an enemy country."

It turned out to be sold to the Great Food, and the Great Food is now an ally of the Tang Dynasty in a sense, and the two sides are jointly attacking the Turgish, Sulu, a generation of male lords belonging to the Western Turkic branch, has been seeking to survive in the gap between the two empires of Arabia and the Tang Dynasty, once the Turgish is defeated, the Great Food and the Tang will inevitably be in hostility.

"It's not an enemy country now, it may not be in the future, you sell my Datang's armor to foreign countries, if they learn our armor-making technology, they will fight with us in the future, because of you people, how many soldiers will we kill and wound, to put it seriously, this is a big crime for the enemy."

The soldiers were terrified when they heard this, and the big hats were buttoned up, and anyone could withstand it.

Everyone kowtowed and confessed, and at the same time, several chiefs played the bitter card: "Li Yuanjun, we are stationed in the bitter cold land of the Green Mountains all the year round, and we suffer from the severe cold in September of the year, and the salary and rice grain are distributed, but they are the same as the garrisons in other places. Not only do we have to keep ourselves fed and clothed, but we also have to keep our mothers and children fed and clothed......"

Li Siye continued his words and said, "You still have to drink wine and eat meat, right?"

Shi Chang closed his mouth stiffly, nodding no, shaking his head.

He paced back and forth on the steps: "There is a way to not blame the public, you also think so in your hearts, if you are punished, who will guard the green ridge and arrest you?" So, I won't report the lack of armor to the Metropolitan Protectorate, but we have to have a solution ourselves. ”

When everyone heard this, they were secretly relieved in their hearts, and together with the two team members who were beaten to the ground and lay on the ground, Shi and Song, felt that this beating was worth it.

At this time, Yu Gocai took the initiative to stand up and say: "Li Yuanjun is sympathetic to the brothers, we are grateful, no matter how you punish us, we are willing to accept it."

They should indeed be willing to receive zero, once Li Siye decides not to report to the top, it is equivalent to taking this pot and carrying it on his back, and once a superior comes to the green ridge to guard and inspect in the future, the sin of missing armor will inevitably be on the head of him, the guard.

"Very good," Li Siye said with a deep groan: "It's not too late to make amends, this account still has to be counted on your heads, Yu Gou, go get a clean account book, and give me a notebook of what armor is missing, and how much it is worth." In the future, I have to find a way to purchase armor from the Arsenal of the Metropolitan Protectorate, and I shouldn't be responsible for this money, right?"

Yu Gou smacked his lips and said, "Actually, you don't need an account book, I can weave hemp rope to record."

"What kind of hemp rope to weave? Buckle the cord! You just have to take it out and use it, and I'll make up for the missing account book! ”

"Hey," Yu Gou muttered in his heart as he walked, this Li Shou doesn't know the price of firewood and rice, and he will know it after a few years, and when the time comes, you don't divide the penny in half and spend it, I will write this Yu Zi upside down.

He moved out the case and the four treasures of the study, sat cross-legged on the earthen platform of the grass hall, waited with a pen in his hand, and then began to report the missing armor from the team, for example, the Shi team was missing the breastplate, and the price of each town to purchase from the Wubei Workshop was 4,500 yuan, and the Song team was replacing the third-class horizontal knife with an inferior horizontal knife, the quotation was 2,500 yuan, and the price of the armor of the soldiers was equal, and it was only necessary to carefully record who was missing what, and everyone who was guarding the green ridge owed a high debt.

After the record of the main book was completed, Li Siye took the account book from his hand, flipped through it casually, and then put it in his arms.

"When you return the money and buy the armor back, I will cross out the entries in this ledger for you."

"Li Yuanjun," a senior officer asked boldly, "don't you want to deduct the money we owe from the salary?"

"How so? How much do you have to pay that? Even if I deduct all of you, do I have to come over?"

Li Siye sent all these people away, turned around and returned to the grass hall, and soon the sound of a woman crying came from outside the grass hall. Fujimu hurriedly ran out to look, and then came back with an embarrassed face: "The two ladies of Team Shi and Team Song are crying outside, and they are looking for death and want to hang themselves."

Li Siye listened attentively, then waved his hand and said, "These women don't care about her, let them make trouble."

On the ground outside the grass hall, two women in skirts sat sideways on the ground, crying loudly and in low voices.

"The guard is unreasonable! Beat our men, how can we women live! ”

"This is not a way to live!"

Li Siye stood in the grass hall and just snorted and sneered, this Gao Quartet who died in office! How does the Catcher do it? These people are used to being like this! The rules of the city must be re-established!

Fujimu hesitated and had something to say, Li Siye frowned and asked him: "If you have anything else, say it together, don't spit out."

"What you did just now is a little improper, they didn't report the sale of the armor, as a captive envoy, such a sin will definitely fall on your head in the future, if the higher authorities send someone to inspect, you captor will not be able to escape the blame."

Li Siye asked him rhetorically: "You mean that I should report it?"

"Yes."

Li Siye sat cross-legged on the ground, summoned Tian Zhen and Fuji Mu to sit down, and said to them with his fingers open: "If I report the lack of armor, these people will inevitably be punished more severely, lose their qualifications to recruit soldiers in Anxi, and become miscellaneous servants in the army, what will happen to their wives?" What about their children? Even if the Duhufu is open and can continue to stay in the Green Ridge to guard and serve as a soldier, then they will feel the favor of the Duhufu, not me, Li Siye. ”

"What I want is a concentric green mountain guard, as the commander of the city, if I can't take responsibility for them, will these people follow me with all their hearts?"

Fujimu suddenly realized after hearing this, and a convincing look appeared on his face: "Is this the essence of the way of leading soldiers?" Li envoy-kun and Fujiwara Akisuke were taught. ”

Li Siye nodded very appreciatively, with such a Japanese person by his side, his vanity is the easiest to be satisfied.

He said in an official tone: "Since the two of you have become the team leader, you should take on the responsibility of the team leader." From tomorrow, I will be in charge of the training of both teams. These people's training is wasted and their combat effectiveness is lax, and they should be promoted as soon as possible. ”

"Good! Hi! Tian Zhen and Fujimaki are high-spirited, with the extravagant hope of making contributions, their confidence and ideals have not been defeated and worn out by reality, and they think that they can reverse the counterattack under any conditions.
