And in the hands of the council officer, he holds Shaoxuan's army's year-round salary and various military supplies.
It can be said that although his status is not too high on the surface, in fact, the Shaoxuan Army has only a few self-sufficient battalions.
People in other camps will act based on his expression.
No matter how tough your attitude is, you have to lower your arrogant head when dealing with key figures like this.
Just like now.
As soon as Mr. Liang appeared, Hai, who had seemed a bit tense just now, suddenly became quiet.
"The Commander-in-Chief is currently receiving distinguished guests. No matter what you have to do, you must leave it alone now so as not to disturb the distinguished guests."
Councilor Liang looked around at the people around him coldly, his attitude couldn't be more obvious.
When the commanders of those camps heard this, their faces changed to varying degrees.
Lao Jiang really couldn't hold it back. He stepped forward and saluted Mr. Liang, then barely suppressed his anger and said, "But the soldier has died tragically. If we just do nothing, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the soldiers."
ah!"
"Please also ask the Lord Council to report this matter to the Commander-in-Chief. We are doing this to stabilize the morale of the army and have no other intention."
Liang Shanshi glanced at Lao Jiang. Although his face was still cold, he had no intention of blaming Lao Jiang.
"I understand what General Jiang means. This matter should indeed be reported to the Commander-in-Chief."
Then, Liang Yishi changed his subject, "But the military has been experiencing a lot of troubles both internally and externally recently, and the commander-in-chief is really unable to cope with the situation."
"Those of us below should find ways to share the worries of the adults, instead of being busy fighting among ourselves and blaming each other."
It can be said that Liang Yishi's words shocked both parties at once.
Lao Jiang and the group represented by the man have never drank.
It's just that because there weren't so many thorny issues before, the conflicts between the two sides just stopped at complaining and blaming each other.
This kind of conflict is harmless when it's okay.
But when something goes wrong, it can become an adverse factor that affects the stability of the situation.
Liang discussed matters, and the reason why he rushed over in a hurry was because he was afraid that the two parties would miss the opportunity because they did not mediate in time.
Sure enough, after hearing what he said, the two parties seemed to calm down.
Liang Yishi then continued to talk about some ways to deal with it.
But they all treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.
Because everyone here knows very well that if human traffickers are really punished severely, they may be involved later.
Now that the knife is hanging around his neck, everyone is afraid of the price they will pay if this incident breaks out.
This is also the case, why they are so eager to ask the people above to come up with a a solution.
But now it seems that the people above are the same as them.
This matter can only be raised high and put down gently.
In the end, Mr. Liang just reassured them with a few words, and then took away the man in gold and silver. It seemed that he still had some "business" he wanted to discuss.
Only the chief generals of each battalion were left in the meeting hall.
Every face now looks obscure and indistinguishable.
They remained silent for a long time, and finally someone broke the silence.
"I think this matter should be handled according to the wishes of the councillor."
These words made everyone's hearts tremble.
According to the Lord Councilor's intention, of course, the troublemaker should be given a grand burial, and then the target would be changed and the focus would be blurred.
Throw a scapegoat at the right time and let "him" bear most of the anger.
The scapegoat is then executed to quell criticism.
To be honest, this is not the first time they have done this.
But only this time they felt extremely anxious and uneasy in their hearts.
"Even if we do this, will this matter be settled?" Lao Jiang lowered his head, his voice still a bit hoarse.
"Otherwise?" A skinny man sitting by the window said sarcastically, "Should we tell everyone the truth that we were not only involved in this matter, but also deeply involved in it?"
These words made everyone feel suffocated.
Yes.
Many of them participated without knowing it.
At the beginning, they didn't know what the people above were doing in collusion with the traffickers.
But later, even if they found out, they still didn't give up, right?
They took all the money, the money earned from selling tribesmen.
It's just that I used to have a fluke mentality and thought that after doing it this time, I would never do it again.
But as the money continued to come in, they changed from being anxious at the beginning to feeling at ease later.
It's just that they didn't expect that the fire would burn themselves in the end.
Perhaps even if they thought about it, they were blinded by the immediate benefits.
When they looked back, they were shocked to realize that some of the debts had already been repaid.
"Lao Jiang, brothers all know that you can't bear it, but since we have done this, we must do it to the end."
People around Lao Jiang took pictures
Pat him on the shoulder.
Everyone knows that there is no room for turning around in this matter.
It's good to be exposed now, so that everyone won't always be worried.
There are even some cruel people who have already thought about how to deal with this matter.
Can't blame them.
If they don't collude with each other, where will the military pay come from?
Relying on Shaoxuan's army's pitiful military pay alone, let alone being able to feed the brothers below, they probably wouldn't even be able to have a full meal all year round.
At this time, they have already found reasons for their unscrupulous behavior.
They keep saying it's all for the brothers below, but what's the reality?
Even if the annual military salary budget is not enough, many of them have their own industries.
Like Du Canjun, it is unrealistic to use his own private property to support the entire battalion, but at least his life will not be as miserable and pitiful as they say.
Even the money earned without conscience, doesn’t most of it still fall into their own pockets?
It's just a matter of finding a reason to deceive myself and the people below.
Little did they know, their every move had already been monitored.
After those people left the meeting hall, the news quickly spread back to Lin Mengya and Du Canjun.
Lin Mengya was amazed!
She grew up in a military family, and was used to seeing her father, brother, uncles, and uncles do anything for the people under their command.
Looking at this group of sanctimonious guys, she suddenly felt that it was an insult to compare her father, brother, uncles to this group of people in the past.
"I have never seen such a shameless person!"
"Is there something wrong with them that they can even deceive themselves with such hypocritical remarks?"
"These people are worse than beasts! No, I am insulting beasts by saying this."
Long Tianyu's face didn't look very good either.
Although they are both generals, he cannot love his subordinates as brothers.
But as a general, you need to put the interests of those under you before yourself, so that everyone can live and die for you.
But this group of people simply exchanged their own futures with the lives of their subordinates.
Every penny they hold is stained with the blood and tears of their subordinates.
Wouldn't it be hot for them to hold such money?
Facts have proved that in the face of the huge temptation of interests, any moral bottom line and any conscience can be abandoned.
Both of them were so angry that they jumped off their feet. As you can imagine, Du Shen How angry is the army?
Soon, Lin Mengya heard the roar from Du Canjun's side.
But the sound only lasted for two or three times and then was suppressed by force. It seemed that someone was trying to persuade me.
Although in the current form, it is more beneficial to Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu.
But they understood that they were stepping on the flesh and blood of those innocent soldiers.
It wasn't until evening that the food was handed over to Du Canjun.
During the two previous meals, he said he had no appetite and sent people out without seeing anyone.
Lin Mengya personally brought the food over.
When she first entered, she thought she had made a mistake. There was not even a candlelight in the huge tent.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya is very familiar with the camp and her eyesight is very good.
Still, she stepped on debris on the ground.
This person must have had a big fire in the afternoon and smashed some things.
Alas, no wonder.
If this matter were to happen to her, I guess she wouldn't be any better than she is now.
"Adults, you'd better eat something. After all, your own body is the most important. If you fall down too, who will save those poor people?"
"Who can I save?"
A hoarse self-deprecating voice came from the darkness.
"I was so self-righteous. I thought I could save everyone, but in fact I couldn't save anyone."
"Over the years, I have watched things happen but could do nothing about it. Even the woman I love most has suffered a lot because of my cowardice."
"Even my children and my brothers have been implicated."
"Perhaps, all this is my fault. If only I hadn't appeared here, they wouldn't have been involved in such a tragic life by me."
Lin Mengya sighed softly, then fumbled to pick up the candle on the ground, opened the torch she carried with her, and lit the candle.
She knew that Du Canjun must be feeling uncomfortable now, and that this self-denial thought was inevitable to a certain extent.
Although people often say that with great ability comes greater responsibility, but this also requires a strong psychological quality to match.
Even superheroes in movies don’t always have everything going their way.
If you don't have a strong psychological quality, you may retreat and collapse after one or two setbacks.
In fact, she wasn't too worried about Du Canjun.
Over the years, he must have seen all kinds of situations.
Now it's just because of a temporary passion that can't be turned around.
