Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 183
A good strategy for defeating the enemy dare not talk nonsense. Although he messed up some new gadgets after time travel, it was just picking up the wisdom of future generations. Li Qinzai didn't get so inflated that he really thought he was omnipotent.

In essence, he is still the social animal who eats and waits to die and just wants to hide.

"It's hard for the chief executive to be dismissed. The subordinate is just a dull dude who has achieved nothing. He really has no good plan to defeat the enemy. The subordinate can only ensure that the income and expenditure accounts of food, grass, armaments, war horses, etc. are clear and accurate." Li Qinzai said modestly.

Master Sun Ren smiled and said: "These words have a slick taste of a dandy. You are not small. Many colleagues in the court have talked about you with the old man, and they all praise you very much."

"Your grandfather sent you to the army. Could it be that you are really just keeping accounts? This job can be done by a dog, so why overqualify it?"

Li Qinzai's old face darkened.

At this age, haven't you learned to speak human language?Can your dog keep accounts?
Master Sun Ren waved his hand with a smile: "If you don't say anything, don't say it, but if you really have any clues, you must tell the old man. The marching commander Shi has another duty, which is to advise the general manager at any time."

Li Qinzai laughed and said: "Yes, if the subordinate officials have good ideas, they will definitely not hide their secrets."

"Also, if you come up with something interesting, such as gunpowder, feel free to send it. Your gunpowder is really famous. I heard from my colleagues in Beijing that it was mentioned."

"His Majesty specially set up a gunpowder bureau for this purpose. It is said that the big explosive rod made by that thing can destroy mountains and crack rocks. You should wonder if you can use gunpowder in this battle."

Li Qinzai agreed, and then bid farewell to Sun Renshi respectfully.

After walking out of the lobby, Li Qinzai stood in the yard for a while.

The killing intent that rushed to his face before the battle was still lingering around, and the breath that seemed to be holding his heart by invisible hands made Li Qinzai feel uncomfortable in his chest.

People who have never experienced war feel very uncomfortable just standing on the edge of war. It is difficult for Li Qinzai to imagine how strong the hearts of the soldiers who charged into battle must be.

Liu Ah Si came over to report that the tent had been set up, and it was in the logistics camp of the big camp outside the city.

Li Qinzai's duty is to record logistics accounts, so he should naturally live in the supply camp.

After walking out of the governor's mansion, Li Qinzai specifically inquired about Liu Rengui. The soldiers on duty in front of the gate reported that Liu Rengui was arranging the boarding of soldiers at the port.

The warship of the Tang Dynasty carried the soldiers across the Bohai Sea. After arriving in Baekje, Liu Rengui commanded the land part of the battle, and Sun Renshi led the navy to meet the Japanese navy. The two had their own division of labor.

As part of the food and supplies, Li Qinzai was arranged to board the ship in the last group, about two days later.

After going out of the city to his tent, Li Qinzai opened the account book and checked it carefully from beginning to end.

This work is something that Li Qinzai has been doing repeatedly recently. The account books of food, grass and supplies in the army are very important, but if there is any mistake, it is not too much for Master Sun Ren to chop off his head on the spot, and Li Ji has nothing to say.

Flipping through the last page of the account book, Li Qinzai tapped on the account book with his fingers and called Liu Asi in.

"Send someone to tell Qian Yi and An Jinzhi that the last batch of food and supplies will board the ship two days later. Before boarding the ship, there is still a batch of [-] shi of food and grass in the Laizhou official warehouse that must be escorted to the camp. Let them do it immediately. If there is any delay, the military law will disposal."

Liu Ah Si took the order to leave the tent, but came back not long after.

"Five Shaolang, An Jinzhi, the deputy general of grain superintendent, has left Laizhou with 2000 troops."

Li Qinzai hummed, then felt something was wrong, raised his head and said, "Where's Qian Yi?"

"As soon as we entered Dengzhou City, Qian Yi led several generals into the city to find a wine shop to drink, and returned to the camp drunk, in a state of drinking madness."

Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Drinking is allowed in the army?"

"It's not allowed. But Qian Yi was drinking in the city. He is a food supervisor, and drinking when he has no duties. The soldiers below probably turned a blind eye."

Li Qinzai frowned: "I'm a dude from the Duke's Mansion. I know more about eating, drinking, and having fun than him. I didn't dare to mess around after I joined the army. Why should he be rich?"

Liu Ah Si wryly smiled and said: "I heard from the officers and men of the food team that Qian Yi behaved like this after he was relegated. He has committed many crimes and received many punishments, but fortunately he did not delay the business of transporting food, and the Shangguan did not take him for granted. Method."

"Drinkers never delay business?"

Liu Asi nodded: "Fortunately, Qian Yi has a stable lieutenant, An Jinzhi. I heard that An Jinzhi often helped him clean up the mess. Several times the grain supervision team was almost delayed, but it was An Jinzhi who turned the tide and arrived on time. Otherwise, with Qian Yi's virtue, all ten heads will be chopped off."

Li Qinzai frowned deeper and deeper.

The importance of logistics and food to an army is self-evident. If the food supervisor is someone like Qian Yi, it is hard to say whether it will cause disasters in the future. An Jinzhi is not the savior of the world. Do you expect him to turn the tide every time? ?
Whenever there is a delay in the delivery of grain and grass, the news spreads throughout the army, which will cause great turmoil in the army, and this turmoil can even determine the outcome of a war.

Li Qinzai gritted his teeth, this person must be dealt with, either replaced, or continued to be relegated, let him be a soldier.This kind of person is only worthy of being a soldier.

"I am the commander of the army, Shi, do I have the right to replace the food supervisor?" Li Qinzai asked.

Liu Ah Si shook his head: "Chang Shi has no right to appoint or dismiss in the army, and the removal and replacement of food supervisors must be decided by the chief commander of the army."

Li Qinzai was angry: "What's the point! There are still bones in this world that dogs can't chew?"

Liu Ah Si looked at him in surprise.

After all, he is a cultural person, the metaphor is very vivid, and he can understand it as soon as he hears it.

Li Qinzai's face was gloomy, and he sat in the tent thinking for a while, then got up and said, "Come on, let's see how that food supervisor got drunk."

Qian Yi's tent was also in the supply camp, not far from Li Qinzai's tent.

When Li Qinzai walked near Qian Yi's tent, he found that there were many soldiers watching the excitement. Liu Ahsi parted the crowd, and Li Qinzai walked in with his hands behind his back. beneficial.

But Qian Yi's cheeks were red, he was holding a whip in his hand, and was beating three soldiers.

The three soldiers kept screaming, but they didn't dare to move.Their single clothes were torn to pieces, and the blood-red welts on their backs were shocking.

Li Qinzai exploded immediately.

"Stop!" Li Qinzai shouted violently.

Qian Yi paused, and stared at him with red eyes. Seeing that it was Li Qinzai, he immediately restrained his arrogance, threw away the whip in his hand, and reluctantly clasped his fists in salute: "Meet Li Changshi."

Li Qinzai stepped forward with a gloomy face, looked at the three government soldiers, then at Qian Yi, and said coldly, "Why did you abuse the soldiers?"

Qian Yi said indifferently: "The soldiers made mistakes, so naturally they should be taught a lesson."

"What mistake did they make?"

"Li Changshi, the three of them are soldiers under my command who transport food and grass. This is a matter of our supply camp. I don't need Li Changshi to ask."

Li Qinzai smiled: "What do you mean, my marching commander Shi is not qualified to take care of the supply camp?"

Qian Yi held back his anger and said: "How to control the soldiers under his command is up to the general. It's better for Li Changshi not to intervene. You should inlay gold in the army so as not to delay your promotion after returning to Chang'an."

Li Qinzai's smile became more and more pleasing: "Even I was arranged by you? Okay, okay. You are a food supervisor. If you don't know, you might think you are the chief of the army. It seems that I really have no right to control you." ?”

"The last general didn't say that, but suggested that Li Changshi had better leave it alone. As long as the last general does not delay the delivery of food and grass, how to discipline the soldiers under his command is the last general's business."

Li Qinzai nodded, and suddenly approached Qian Yi, smelling a strong smell of alcohol.

"Qian Yi, drinking is not allowed in the army, do you know about this?"

Qian Yi's complexion changed, and then he said coldly: "The general will know."

"Knowing the law and breaking the law, no one in the army can cure you?" Li Qinzai asked with a smile.

"Young general...you won't do it again next time." Qian Yi gritted his teeth.

Li Qinzai shook his head: "No, no, it's up to you whether you will commit a crime next time. Let's deal with one another. Don't forget to drink alcohol this time?"

Qian Yi widened his eyes and said: "The general is willing to be punished, but the only one who can punish the general is the chief commander of the army."

Li Qinzai blinked: "I can't punish you?"

"You are a long history, and you don't have the right to march."

"You have already crossed the line to drink, so I can't cross the line and march?"

Qian Yi was impatient: "If you march in the military law, you are also breaking the military law, and you are also breaking the law knowing the law."

Li Qinzai hummed, his smile gradually faded, he stared into Qian Yi's eyes, and said: "I did a lot of things that violated the law when I was in Chang'an, but I didn't have the opportunity to try it in the army. Today is the right time, and I want to try it. "

Seeing that Li Qinzai's eyes became firm and indifferent, Qian Yi finally became a little restless.

"Li Changshi, don't be too extreme in your behavior. If you punish me today..."

Li Qinzai sneered: "How?"

Qian Yi was stung by Li Qinzai's expression, and before he was drunk, he simply became angry and said: "Li Qinzai, you are just a generation of Gaoliang who relied on the shadow of your ancestors to gain power. I used to go through life and death for the Tang Dynasty. What qualifications do you have to ride on my head after a life-and-death fight?"

Li Qinzai said without changing his face, "Just because I am the commander of the marching army and you are the grain supervisor, my officer is older than you, so you have to endure riding on your head. Is this enough reason?"

"One day you will be promoted to an official. The official is older than me. You are welcome to ride on my head."

Staring at Qian Yi's distorted face, Li Qinzai suddenly shouted angrily, "Liu Asi!"

"exist!"

"Drinking in the army, how do you deal with it?"

"According to military law, stick ten."

"Abusing soldiers for no reason, how can we deal with it?"

"According to military law, stick ten."

Li Qinzai nodded: "Twenty rods in total, Liu Ahsi, you execute the punishment yourself."

Liu Ahsi's face turned cold, and with a wave of his hand, more than ten members of the Li family surrounded him.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the grain team who were watching the excitement all backed away consciously.

Qian Yi saw that the bandits surrounded him, he was startled and angrily said: "Li Qinzai, how dare you!"

"Why don't I dare? Shi, the dignified marching commander, if he can't even be dealt with by a grain supervisor, he's a coward." Li Qinzai said loudly and shouted: "Execute the punishment quickly, and report to the chief inspector after the beating is over."
