    Then, after Li Jinzhong asked someone to write the letter, he handed the letter to the messenger and asked the messenger to rush to the inn and deliver the letter to the Qizhou battlefield.

    At the same time, Chu Xuanchen appointed Yuan Zhen as the censor of the Supervisory Yuan, with an official rank of third rank.

    He asked Yuan Zhen to lead the censors of the Supervisory Yuan to investigate the case of corrupt officials and profiteers.

    In this way, Yuan Zhen was promoted from an ordinary counselor to a censor.

    After being promoted, he immediately started to do this.

    "You don't know if you don't investigate. Once you investigate, Yuan Zhen finds out that there are many corrupt officials hidden in various parts of Chu State, as well as evil businessmen, big landowners and others.

    After finding the criminal evidence of these people, Yuan Zhen showed no mercy and directly led troops to ransack their homes.

    After searching their homes, they discovered that these corrupt officials¡¯ homes were filled with endless gold and silver treasures, silks, jewels and jade, as well as warehouse after warehouse of food and other items.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? withered with the food in Chu.

    At this time, Yuan Zhen quickly led his troops, confiscated the property of the corrupt officials, and transported away their food.

    By the time the vigorous five-day seizure had passed, Yuan Zhen had seized one million taels of gold, ten million taels of silver, and tens of thousands of shi of food.

    When Chu Xuanchen and the ministers saw the gold, silver, treasures and food brought back by the soldiers, they all couldn't believe it.

    The combined wealth of these corrupt officials and profiteers is more than the entire national treasury.

    Usually, they all cry about poverty, and when the country is in trouble, they are not willing to donate even a little bit of property. Unexpectedly, they are all as fat as rats.

    Seeing this scene, Chu Xuanchen clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes full of anger.

    "But it's also caused by the crooked upper beam and crooked lower beam. If Chu Yao wasn't such a person himself, how could he have cultivated so many corrupt officials?

    Fortunately, now that the properties of these corrupt officials have been seized, he finally has money to pay the soldiers and food to transport to the border!

    After getting the food and wages, Chu Xuanchen immediately sent Mo Li, Mo Zhu, Feng Qingyang and others to escort the food, wages and firearms to Qizhou.

    Moli and the others transported batch after batch of food, wages and firearms to the battlefield.

    Chu Xuanchen was afraid that there would be insufficient food, so he quickly asked someone to take money and go to the country next door to buy food.

    He wanted to send food and grass continuously, gave the soldiers confidence, and wanted this war to be resolved quickly.

    At the same time, the soldiers transported a large number of firearms.

    Now the Chu army and the Xueyue Kingdom¡¯s army totaled more than 200,000 people. With the supplies of food and grass, coupled with the blessing of infinitely powerful firearms, Chu Xuanchen believed that they would definitely win this time-

    Ten days later, Qizhou

    Chu army camp

    In the military camp, the soldiers sat slumped on the ground, all of them were so hungry that their faces were yellow and their muscles were thin, and their whole bodies were weak.

    Some people also have white lips, looking like they are malnourished.

    Dong Changfeng, Su Qishao and other generals walked to the military camp. Seeing this scene, they were all very worried and anxious.

    Seeing that his soldiers were so hungry, Su Qishao clenched his fists with a look of self-blame, "It's all my fault for not driving away the enemy quickly, which is why the soldiers have to suffer like this.  It has been several days, and the soldiers have been hungry for several days, and every one of them is so hungry that they are naked. If this continues, what should we do?"

    Dong Changfeng said: "General Su, don't worry, the emperor has replied to us before. I believe him. He said he would find a way, and he will definitely find a way. Let's wait for him for a few more days. Maybe in a few days, the food and salary will be paid.  It¡¯s coming!¡±

    Su Qishao closed his eyes and said sadly, "I also believe in the emperor, but this food and salary is not something he can raise if he wants to. No matter how emperor he is, he is just an ordinary person, not a god, and he cannot conjure food and grass out of thin air.  come out."

    "Yes, we have been short of food and grass during this period of time, and we have been sparing our food every day, resulting in the soldiers not having enough to eat at all. They drag their weak and hungry bodies to fight, and they are no match for the coalition forces. These days,  Not only were we forced back dozens of miles, but we also suffered huge losses and heavy casualties!" Jiang Ning said, his eyes suddenly turned red!

    Thinking of those soldiers who sacrificed their lives, he felt uncomfortable. He was so uncomfortable that he could not even sleep or eat well and blamed himself very much.

    As generals, if they can't keep their soldiers full and can't protect their lives, are they still worthy of being generals?

    At this moment, Su Qishao¡¯s stomach suddenly rumbled.

    He immediately clutched his stomach and looked very uncomfortable.??

    Dong Changfeng said hurriedly: "General Su, are you hungry?"

    "No, I'm not hungry." Su Qishao shook his head quickly.

    Dong Changfeng said, "Don't lie to me. Today I saw you gave your lunch to a soldier. Come on, I have another steamed bun here. You can fill your stomach first, maybe it will be better."

    With that said, he took out a white-flour steamed bun from his pocket and handed it to Su Qishao.

    Su Qishao couldn't help but feel sad when he looked at the steamed buns, and the corners of his mouth curled up bitterly.

    Once upon a time, had Su Qishao ever been hungry?  Have you ever suffered like this?
