Chapter 183 Why not?

 Don’t dare to talk nonsense about good strategies to defeat the enemy. Although he messed up some new gadgets after time travel, it was just picking up the wisdom of future generations. Li Qinzai was not so arrogant that he really thought he was omnipotent.

In essence, he is still the social beast who is waiting to die and just wants to hide and relax.

"The general manager has a hard time with the subordinate. The subordinate is just a dull dude who has accomplished nothing. He really has no good strategy to defeat the enemy. The subordinate can only ensure that the accounts of income and expenditure such as food, grass, weapons, and horses are clear and accurate." Li Qinzai said humbly.

Master Sun Renshi smiled and said: "These words give off the air of a dandy. Your abilities are not small. Many colleagues in the court have talked about you with me, and they all praise you very much."

"Your grandfather sent you to the army. Is it possible that you really just keep accounts? A dog can do this job, so why overdo it?"

Li Qinzai's old face darkened.

At this age, have you never learned to speak human language? Can your dog keep accounts?

Master Sun Ren smiled and waved his hand: "If you don't tell me, I won't tell you. But if you really have any clues, you must tell me. Marching Commander Shi also has another responsibility, which is to advise the general manager at any time..."

Li Qinzai smiled and said, "Yes, if I have a good idea, I will definitely not hide it."

"Also, if you come up with something good again, such as gunpowder, feel free to send it over. Your gunpowder is indeed quite famous. I heard my colleagues in Beijing mention it."

"Your Majesty has specially set up a gunpowder station for this thing. It is said that the big blasting rod made by that thing can destroy mountains and crack rocks. You should think about it carefully and see if you can use gunpowder in this battle."

Li Qinzai agreed and then respectfully bid farewell to Master Sun Ren.

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

The murderous intention that hit him before the battle was still lingering around him. The aura that seemed to be grasping his heart by invisible hands made Li Qinzai feel uncomfortable in his chest.

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

Liu Asi came over and reported that the tent had been set up and was in the logistics 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 house, Li Qinzai specifically inquired about Liu Rengui. The soldiers on duty in front of the door reported that Liu Rengui was arranging for the soldiers to board the ship at the port. He was the deputy general manager of the march and was mainly responsible for the land soldiers.

The warships of the Tang Dynasty carried the soldiers across the Bohai Sea. After arriving at Baekje, Liu Rengui commanded the land battle, while Sun Renshi led the navy to attack the Japanese navy. Each of them had their own division of labor.

As part of the food and baggage, Li Qinzai was arranged to be among the last batch to board the ship, about two days later.

After leaving the city and coming to his tent, Li Qinzai opened the account book and looked at it carefully from beginning to end.

This work is something Li Qinzai has been doing repeatedly recently. The army's food, grass and baggage account books are very important. If there is any mistake, Sun Renshi will chop off his head on the spot. Li Ji has nothing to say.

After turning to the last page of the account book, Li Qinzai tapped 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 grain and grass baggage will be boarded in two days. Before boarding, there is a batch of 5,000 stones of grain and grass in the Laizhou official warehouse that must be escorted to the camp. Let them handle it immediately. If there is any delay, military law will

Disposal."

Liu Asi was ordered to go out of the tent, but he came back not long after.

"Fifth Young Master, An Jinzhi, the deputy general in charge of grain, has set out for Laizhou with two thousand troops."

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

"As soon as we entered Dengzhou City, Qian Yi led several generals into the city and found a tavern to drink. They returned to camp drunk and were acting like crazy."

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

"It's not allowed. But Qian Yi is drinking in the city. He is a grain inspector. He drinks when he is not on duty. The soldiers below probably turned a blind eye."

Li Qinzai frowned: "I am a dandy from the Duke's palace. I know more about eating, drinking and having fun than he does. I haven't dared to mess around since I joined the army. Why does he have money?"

Liu Asi smiled bitterly and said: "I heard from the soldiers in the grain team that Qian Yi has been so virtuous since he was demoted. He has committed many crimes and received many punishments. Fortunately, he has not delayed the official work of transporting grain. The superior officer also did not blame him.

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 his messes. Several times the grain inspection team was almost delayed, but it was An Jinzhi who turned the tide and arrived on time.

, Otherwise, if you use the virtue of money to gain, ten heads will be chopped off."

Li Qinzai's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

The importance of logistics and food to an army is self-evident. If the food inspector is a person like Qian Yi, it is hard to say whether it will cause trouble in the future. An Jinzhi is not a savior. Do you expect him to turn the tide every time?

?

Whenever there is a delay in the delivery of food and fodder, and the news spreads throughout the army, it will cause great turmoil in the morale of the military. This turmoil can even determine the outcome of a war.

Li Qinzai gritted his teeth. This person must be dealt with, either by replacing him or by continuing to demote him to a small soldier. This kind of person only deserves to be a small soldier.

"I am the commander of the army, do I have the authority to replace the grain inspector?" Li Qinzai asked.

Liu Asi shook his head: "The chief minister has no power of appointment or dismissal in the army. The decision to replace the grain inspector must be made by the general manager of the march."

Li Qinzai was angry: "What's the point! Are there any bones in this world that dogs can't chew?"

Liu Asi glanced at him in surprise.

After all, he is a cultural person, and his metaphors are very expressive and can be understood as soon as he hears them.

Li Qinzai's face was gloomy. He sat in the tent and thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Let's see how the grain inspector goes crazy with alcohol."

Qian Yi's tent was also in the baggage 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 fun. Liu Asi separated the crowd, and Li Qinzai walked in with his hands on his hands. He was shocked to find three soldiers wearing single clothes outside Qian Yi's tent, with their backs to Qian Yi.

beneficial.

Qian Yi, with red cheeks and a whip in his hand, was beating three soldiers.

Every time the whip was struck with all its strength, the three soldiers kept screaming but did not dare to move. Their single clothes had been torn to pieces, and the blood-red whip marks on their backs were shocking.

Li Qinzai exploded immediately.

"Stop!" Li Qinzai shouted violently.

Qian Yi paused and glared over with red eyes. When he saw it was Li Qinzai, he immediately restrained his arrogance, threw away the whip in his hand, and reluctantly clasped his fists in salute: "Greetings to Li Changshi."

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

Qian Yi said in an indifferent tone: "When a soldier makes a mistake, he should be taught a lesson."

"What mistake did they make?"

"Li Changshi, the three of them are the soldiers under my command who are transporting grain and grass. This is a matter for our supply camp, so I don't need to ask Li Changshi about it."

Li Qinzai smiled: "You mean, I, the marching commander Shi, am not qualified to take care of the supplies camp?"

Qian Yi held back his anger and said: "How to control the generals under his command, the general has his own discretion. It is better for Li Changshi not to interfere. You can embed gold in the army and not delay your promotion after returning to Chang'an."

Li Qinzai's smile became even more amiable: "Even I have been arranged by you? Okay, okay. You are such a talented food inspector. If you don't know, you might think you are the marching general manager. It seems that I am really not qualified to take care of you.

?”

"The general didn't say that. He just suggested that Li Changshi should stay out of it. As long as the general does not delay the delivery of food and fodder, it is the general's business how to discipline his soldiers."

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

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

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

"You know the law and break it, but no one in the army can punish you?" Li Qinzai asked with a smile.

"The last general...the last general will not do it again next time." Qian Yi gritted his teeth and said.

Li Qinzai shook his head: "No, no, it's your business whether you will do it next time. Let's do the same thing. Is it okay to drink this time?"

Qian Yi stared and said: "The general is willing to be punished, but the only one who can punish the general is the marching general."

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

"You are the chief historian and have no authority over military law."

"You have already crossed the line and drank, so I can't cross the line of marching law?"

Qian Yi was impatient: "If you practice military law, you are also violating military law. You are also breaking the law knowingly."

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

"

Seeing Li Qinzai's eyes becoming firm and cold, Qian Yi finally lost his composure.

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

Li Qinzai sneered: "How?"

Qian Yi was stung by Li Qinzai's expression. While still drunk, he simply said angrily: "Li Qinzai, you are just a man who has gained power by relying on the influence of his ancestors. I once worked for the Tang Dynasty through life and death, and I am the most famous person in the world."

I fought for my life, what qualifications do you have to ride on my head?"

Li Qinzai said without changing his expression: "Just because I am the marching commander, you are the grain inspector, my officer is bigger than you, and you have to endure it when I ride on your head. Is this reason enough?"

"Whenever you are promoted to an official position, and 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!"

"What's the punishment for drinking in the army?"

"According to military law, the staff is ten."

"How can we punish soldiers who are abused for no reason?"

"According to military law, the staff is ten."

Li Qinzai nodded: "Twenty sticks in total, Liu Asi, you will carry out the execution yourself."

Liu Asi's face grew colder, and with a wave of his hand, more than ten members of the Li family gathered behind him.

The officers and soldiers of the grain team who were watching the excitement around them all retreated voluntarily when they saw this.

When Qian Yi saw his subordinates surrounding him, he was shocked and angry and said: "Li Qinzai, how dare you!"

"Why don't I dare? If you can't even cure a grain inspector, you're a coward." Li Qinzai said and shouted: "Hurry up and execute the execution. After the beating is completed, report it to the general manager."
