Chapter 47 Angry!
Luo Yong, Yan Buzhi and Ye Wuming all thumped in their hearts.

Something happened to the food? !

"What happened to the food and grass?" Luo Yong asked coldly.

Deputy General Dong adjusted his breathing, and hurriedly said: "General, the grain and grass camp caught fire. The three thousand dans of grain that were just delivered were all... burnt!"

what? !

Luo Yong was shocked, and then rushed out.

He was shocked even if he couldn't say anything, and couldn't help asking: "Why did it catch fire?"

In contrast, Ye Wuming was very calm, he stretched out his hand, patted the shoulder of the unspoken, and said softly: "Don't worry, let's go and have a look."

Biting her lip without saying anything, she nodded, she was just surprised, not too impatient, so as not to lose her footing.

-

When a group of people hurried to the Grain and Grass Camp, the place had already turned into scorched earth.

The strong burning smell made it difficult to breathe, and the billowing black smoke made it impossible to see.

Fortunately, the fire has gradually subsided, and the disgraced guards in charge of protecting the food and grass carried buckets to extinguish the remaining flames.

General Luo looked at the three thousand dans of grain and grass turned into a piece of black ashes, full of resentment.

"Is anyone injured?" General Luo asked coldly.

Deputy General Dong hurriedly went to inquire, and came back a moment later to report: "Returning to the general, only two were slightly injured, and they have been bandaged. It's not a big deal, but the loss of food and grass is serious. Three thousand dans of food, less than [-]% of them were rescued."

"Why did it catch fire?" Zhu Xiaopang scratched his head in doubt.

Yeah...how could it be a fire?

Without saying a word, he said with a sullen face: "It has been raining for days, the air is humid, and the soil is muddy. This kind of environment cannot be a natural fire at all. If it is not a natural disaster, it is a man-made disaster."

"Brother Yan... did someone set fire to what brother Yan said?" Deputy General Dong looked surprised.

Everyone knows how scarce food is now, how could anyone be willing to burn food and grass?Could it be...

Deputy General Dong exclaimed: "Could it be that Da Zhou's spies were mixed into the army?"

When Luo Yong heard this, his expression turned serious, and he immediately ordered Vice General Dong to conduct a thorough investigation.

However, before Luo Yong could open his mouth, he said indifferently: "General Luo, let this matter be handled by the subordinates."

Luo Yong turned his head to look at Yan Buzhi, and asked, "How do you want to deal with it?"

Without saying a word, he pursed his lips, looked quietly at the grain and grass that had been burnt to black ashes, and said, "Of course there is a wrong and a debtor, whoever destroys the grain and grass will spit it out for me!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Although there was almost no ups and downs in their tone when they spoke without words, they still felt that they were angry, and they couldn't be coaxed well.

Seeing this, Ye Wuming took a step forward, and said, "General Luo, I'd better go to supervise the construction of the dam, such trivial matters, after my subordinates take care of them, I should report them to the general."

Luo Yong was still worried, and at this time Vice General Dong's words would be more useful.

Deputy General Dong said: "General, trust them, this Yan Xiaoer is very capable. Let them secretly investigate the arsonist in the open."

Luo Yong thought for a while, nodded and agreed, the most important thing now is to build embankments and bridges.

……

They persuaded Luo Yong to leave, then sent away Deputy General Dong, and finally even drove away the soldiers guarding the grain camp.

In the entire scene of the fire, only Ye Wuming, Lu Banxian and Zhu Xiaopang who refused to leave were left.

Without saying anything, he squatted on the ground, reached out and grabbed a handful of burnt rice on the ground, with a sad look on his face.
