Lin Nianrou walked in with Feng Kui.
"What's wrong?"
"Master Hou, do you know how many troops the emperor sent this time?" Feng Kui asked eagerly, and Han Ce shook his head. He didn't know about this, and Xiao Yanjing never told him.
"You don't know?"
Feng Kui froze for a moment, wondering why the emperor didn't discuss such an important matter with Han Ce.
"An army of 400,000 troops."
Feng Kui said.
He heard at the Ministry of Households that there were 400,000 troops, and he almost broke out in a cold sweat. His original plan was 200,000 at most, or 300,000, but he did not expect Xiao Yanjing to take 400,000 away this time.
It is no exaggeration to say that 400,000 people can eat up a mountain in one day.
With so much food and grass, the imperial court couldn't supply it at all.
"400,000?"
Han Ce gasped. He knew that Xiao Yanjing was hiding something from him, but he didn't expect such an important matter to be hidden from him. Four hundred thousand troops, this is not a small number.
"That's right, what should Hou Ye do now?"
Feng Kui asked.
"Since the matter has come to this point, we have no other choice. You have allocated the grain and grass of the Northwest Army to the northern border. There are priorities. Let's solve the emperor's problem first. There must be no shortage of grain and grass."
Han Ce thought about it for a while, and the only way now is to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.
I hope that Xiao Yanjing will be favored by the heavens this time, and the flag will be successful, otherwise their losses will be really big. It is enough to send troops to Beiyan to lead 200,000 troops, but they did not expect to take 400,000 away.
"That's the only way to go."
Feng Kui thought for a while, Han Ce's current method is the best method.
"Then we will discuss this matter with you tomorrow morning." Han Ce reminded Feng Kui when he saw Feng Kui agreed.
After all, besides them, they have other ministers in Daliang, and the two of them cannot decide the matter in the Beihou Mansion of this town.
The next day.
"My lords are here!"
"coming!"
"I don't know what the Marquis wanted us to do?" One person asked Han Ce. The emperor was no longer in the capital, and there was no major event recently. Basically, everyone did not go to court.
It was really uncomfortable to be called over by Han Ce suddenly.
"My lords, do you know how many soldiers and horses the emperor has taken away?" Han Ce asked the crowd, and they looked at each other, wondering how they could know this.
"Speak to the Ministry of War!"
"A total of 400,000 people!" The Ministry of War gave the answer.
"400,000 people? Does the Marquis think there is something wrong?" Zhang Ju asked Han Ce, as if to say that the whole world belongs to the emperor, and how many people the emperor takes away is the emperor's business, not to mention 400,000 people or a million people does not matter.
"Don't Xiangguo think that these 400,000 people are too many?"
Han Ce continued to ask, Zhang Ju just spoke without thinking, and looked like an idiot.
"Master Hou, are you questioning the emperor's decision?" Zhang Ju immediately moved Xiao Yanjing out, questioning the emperor's decision is a crime of treason.
"You misunderstood what I meant."
Han Ce is really too lazy to talk to Zhang Ju, a fool will never know what you are talking about.
"Hou Ye means, what do 400,000 people eat?" Feng Kui said.
This is 400,000 people.
"This matter should be a matter of your household department. What do you want us to do?" Pan Ren asked with a sneer, what do you eat? This is the Ministry's business.
Could it be that they have to feed them in person.
"The food and grass prepared by the imperial court are for 300,000 people. Now there are 100,000 more people. What can you do?" Feng Kui said today's theme.
One hundred thousand more?
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
"Master Feng, as the Minister of the Household Department, you should know the importance of food and grass. You should be fully prepared. Now that something is wrong, you can't come to us. Let us solve the problem."
Pan Ren looked gloating.
When Pan Ren opened his mouth, many officials immediately agreed with Pan Ren, and they all thought it was a matter of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
These people are aristocrats, and they all hate Feng Kui and Han Ce. Now that Xiao Yanjing is no longer there, the two sides are starting to be at loggerheads.
"Well, my idea is to mobilize food and grass from the Northwest Army and transport it to the northern border. I don't know what you think?"
Feng Kui took a deep breath and said that chatting with these people is troublesome.
"I think it's okay."
Zhang Ziliang thought about it for a while and thought it was okay.
"Then what do the Northwest Army eat? Do they eat dirt?" Zhang Ju asked, what do they eat after you take away their grain and grass?
"There is no war in the northwest, and the embezzlement of food and grass is not a big problem. The key now is the northern border." Zhang Ziliang argued that this is a matter of embezzlement.
"Then why not embezzle the grain and grass in the southern border?"
Zhang Ju asked.
"No, the southern border is different from the northwest. Jiameng Pass is very important. What if Southern Chu wants to seize Jiameng Pass when we are fighting with Beiyan? The food, grass and ordnance of the southern army must not be moved."
Han Ce resolutely refused, there is no room for negotiation on this matter.
"I think it's better to mobilize the grain and grass in the southern border." Seeing that Han Ce protected the grain and grass in the southern border, Zhang Ju immediately proposed to embezzle the grain and grass in the southern border.
In Zhang Ju's eyes, Han Ce must be because of Sun Yu and Qi Zheng. These two are Han Ce's confidantes. They are now the main generals of the southern border. Han Ce is favoring his own people.
There was no one from Han Ce in the northwest, so Han Ce performed surgery in the northwest.
"The southern border is more important than the northwest and cannot be moved."
"The southern border can be moved. We just helped Nanchu put down the chaos. Could it be that Nanchu can avenge his kindness? Wouldn't it make the world laugh at him?" Zhang Ju felt that Han Ce was just trying to protect Sun Yu and Qi Zheng.
"You think too naively."
Han Ce said.
Jiamengguan endangered the life and death of Nanchu. In order not to be ridiculed by others, he was in a dangerous situation, unless he was killed, he would rather be ridiculed for the rest of his life than live in peace.
"Master Hou, I think you are not worried about Nanchu, but about your people!" Pan Ren asked Han Ce sarcastically.
"What's the meaning?"
"I remember that Lord Nanchu is your man." Pan Ren said.
Han Ce looked at Pan Ren.
"You mean for self-interest?" Han Ce's tone became cold. When is this, these people are still here to find reasons to refute themselves.
There are 400,000 people in the northern border waiting for them to solve the food problem.
"I didn't say that."
Feeling Han Ce's cold gaze, Pan Ren immediately stopped talking.
"I have one vote to decide. This is the right given to me by the emperor before he left." Zhang Ju took out the imperial edict in his hand, which was the imperial edict left by Xiao Yanjing to Zhang Ju.
The purpose of staying with Han Ce is to check and balance Zhang Ju, to watch over the nobles, and to give Zhang Ju an imperial edict to watch over Han Ce.
Looking at the imperial decree, Han Ce understood.
"Since this is the case, I have nothing to say. Today's affairs will be handled according to Xiangguo's wishes. If something happens, we don't care about our affairs."
After Han Ce finished speaking, he turned and left the hall without looking back. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
