Chapter 54 is arms again
"Commander Xiao, this matter is not something I can decide, please don't embarrass me. ”
Dong Huai saw that Xiao Feng was mentioning the king again, and his face was full of embarrassment.
The corners of Xiao Feng's mouth curled slightly, and he said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then we won't talk about this matter today!
"Since Commander Xiao already knows, why bother to be official?" Dong Huai was a little anxious, and directly told what he thought in his heart: "I came here today in the hope that Commander Xiao can send the arms promised a while ago over quickly?"
Xiao Feng looked leisurely, and continued: "Didn't I already send it over three days ago?" and ordered Yang Feng beside him again, "Didn't you have the best Dragon Tuan Shengxue sent by the Zhang family's son yesterday?" Yang Feng also immediately bowed and left, preparing the corresponding tea set.
But Dong Huai couldn't bear it, and asked again: "But that's only two thousand." With only 2,000, it doesn't do much at all. ”
"So what?"
Xiao Feng remained motionless and continued to immerse himself in the fragrance of the dragon well before the rain.
Dong Huai was dumbfounded for a while, and after taking a deep breath, he mustered up the courage to ask: "So I dare to ask, when will the remaining eight thousand guns arrive?"
"It depends on how well you prepare!" Xiao Feng's eyelids drooped, but he ignored Dong Huai's anxious look.
Dong Huai was even more anxious, unconsciously stood up from the seat, and asked again: "Commander Xiao." Now that the Mongolian army has moved south, if this gun is not sent again, I am afraid that our army will be in danger. The situation waits for no one, I wonder if Commander Xiao can send those arms quickly?"
"It's not that I don't want to send it, but when will the promised food and wages be made up?"
After Xiao Feng listened, he put aside the teacup in his hand, raised his head again and looked at Dong Huai, his eyes were already solemn: "I have already sent two thousand guns first according to my promise." But the money and grain you promised have not been replenished, and why is it that the 2,000 stone of grain you promised is less than 1,500 stone? I am not interested in interfering in the corruption of bureaucrats, but if it is on my head, then don't blame me for being rude. ”
Speaking of this, she was also extremely annoyed.
At that time, Xiao Yue and others in Chang'an City got the news from Xiao Feng, so they drew elite soldiers from the army and formed a team of about 100 people, each of which was equipped with well-crafted weapons such as plate armor, guns and bayonets, and escorted the promised 2,000 guns.
Although there were bandits and rampant officers and soldiers along the way, there was no danger, and finally this batch of munitions was successfully delivered and delivered to the military headquarters.
Thinking that the matter was finally over, he was about to check the rations, but he was detained by the arresters patrolling the street on trumped-up charges. After that, although Xiao Feng went to rescue his subordinates, he also delayed the right time to check the grain, and after this batch of grain was transported to Chang'an City, he found that the grain had been dropped early, and it was stuffed with some gravel, and the rice millet was almost yellow, and it was inedible at all.
Deceived by this, how could Xiao Feng not hate, so he naturally took this opportunity to scold Dong Huai.
"What did you say?"
Dong Huai was stunned for a moment, obviously never expecting such a thing to happen.
With a wave of Xiao Feng's hand, Zhu Yuzhen had already stepped forward, handed over a stack of files, and sent them to Dong Huai's eyes: "The things that those people have done are all written on this one by one. There are indeed 2,000 stones on the books, but in reality, there are only 1,500 stones. That's what you're doing?"
Dong Huai's back was cold, and he hurriedly took the rice paper that his five fingers couldn't grasp, and looked at it one by one, the things written on it were shocking, and there was only one sentence left in his mouth: "This, how is this possible?"
"How is this impossible? You are also an official of the Song Dynasty, so you should know what your subordinates are like. ”
Xiao Feng smiled coldly, even more contemptuous: "If it is like this, there is no need for Mongolia to come and attack." This great dynasty has long been devoured by that group of moths and completely collapsed. ”
Although she was annoyed that the other party was secretly doing tricks, those people were officials of the Song Dynasty, and if she really interfered, she would not be suspicious, so she only secretly ordered her subordinates to investigate the other party's behavior, and wrote down the other party's many crimes one by one, and then took advantage of Dong Huai's opportunity to hand over these materials to the other party.
As for how the other party would deal with it, Xiao Feng was quite gloating.
Sure enough, although Dong Huai was extremely angry, it was easy to suppress his anger, bowed to Xiao Fengyingying, and said: "This, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter." But will you send those munitions as promised?"
Although he was annoyed that his subordinates were not doing their jobs effectively, Dong Huai always remembered the purpose of coming today, but he still never gave up, hoping that Xiao Feng could send the remaining 8,000 guns.
Now that the front line continues to carry out this batch of munitions, how can he give up so easily?
"If that's the case, then what should I do? Don't forget, these guns are also forged by my subordinates, if they can't get enough food, how can they be willing?" Xiao Feng shook his head and didn't accept it.
Dong Huai paused again, although his face was full of hesitation, he still opened his mouth and asked, "But you also know." At present, our DPRK is at war with the Mongols, and the army consumes a lot of food, but I am afraid that we will not be able to extract so much food. But I wonder if Commander Xiao can give a few days of grace?"
In the past, on the top of the vertical arch hall, Dong Huai pressed Xiao Feng with his own eloquence to make it difficult for Xiao Feng to defend himself, so he had to throw his sleeves and leave.
Today, for the sake of the safety of the country, he has to grovel to this former enemy, how can ordinary people endure such humiliation?
But Dong Huai knew that before the safety of the country, how could he spoil the world with selfishness, so naturally he could only abandon honor and disgrace in order to seek that trace of life.
"Grace?"
Although he saw Dong Huai's expression, Xiao Feng was hard-hearted, and he would not give up his purpose because of the other party's weakness at this moment, shaking his head and refusing: "Master Dong." You are an important minister in the court, and you should also know that time waits for no one. As the saying goes, fire and water are ruthless, and whenever a disaster arises, how can they ever pay attention to it? What's more, as you know, the people under my rule have only lived a stable life for a few years, and although they have greatly promoted water conservancy and agriculture, they have only been lucky enough to have not starved to death. If there is no food, will you let them starve for a few more days? I am willing, but I am afraid that by then my soldiers will starve to death!"
Speaking of the back, the voice was even more full of evil, which made Dong Huai's face even more sad, and there was no trace of rebuttal.
