"Chen Pushe, are these supplies being sent to Chang'an on an urgent basis?" Chief Secretary Yuan Yin looked at the supply list and said with a headache, "According to our recent plan, if this batch of supplies needs to be rushed, some
It’s not worth it, otherwise it won’t be shipped together with the next batch.”
Yuan Yin is a direct descendant of the old Yuan family. Although he is not a direct descendant, his ability is acceptable. When the official position was adjusted, he became Chen Xi's chief clerk inexplicably. Chen Xi guessed that there must be ideas from the Yuan family, but there was no such thing.
say what.
"No, we finally managed to trick Mr. Huangfu. A month later, they don't admit it again. The old man is cheating. You know what happened in Weiyang Palace." Chen Xi said angrily, "Not to mention putting it in the next one.
The rhythm of batches and delays is fulfilled, but the other party still takes advantage of the righteousness."
"But if you want to send it over urgently, you need to mobilize horses and carriages. The relocation in Yecheng has already been mobilized. If you want to mobilize again, you will need to pay according to your past habits. In addition, issuing decrees and mobilizing coordination from top to bottom.
Let's wait for the next wave." Yuan Yin said hesitantly. When his uncle and uncle brought him over, he told him to obey the command and show his value.
"..." Chen Xi touched his cheek after hearing this and understood what was going on. It would be a bit of a fuss to make such a small thing in the next decree. "This is also a problem. Bring me the northern supply list and move now."
Give me a share of the supplies as well.”
Yuan Yin quickly handed the things aside to Chen Xi, and then Chen Xi sketched on it, made a new list, and handed it to Yuan Yin, "Go to Zizhong and ask him to make one according to this."
Send it to Chang'an and that should be fine."
Yuan Yin put it away without looking at it, and then exited. Chen Xi sighed and said to himself, "To transport materials, we have to split the order to reduce the logistics cost. I'll just find someone to calculate the logistics later.
It’s true, Mr. Huangfu, even if you multiply it by ten, it’s not even enough to meet the lower limit of the batch. It’s so bad that I have to stuff some other things into it.”
Recently, the cattle and horses of the carriages have been transferred to Yecheng, so that if they want to be transferred again, the cattle and horses of the carriages need to be transferred from other places. If the distance is too far, the cost of coming here will be very high. After all, if it is empty, Chen Xi will
Bian also cares about money. Such a transfer would almost require a government order to require cooperation from various places.
However, in order to have twenty or thirty carts of supplies, Chen Xi thought for a moment and thought, let’s take ten, and then see which treasuries belong to his own inventory. He also stuffed some into it, and stuffed enough.
I bought 300 cartloads of supplies, but later I thought it was already 300 cartloads, so it would be better to get them all at once, and get another 200 cartloads to make up a batch of 500 carts.
About a month and a half later, when Huangfusong and Zhu Jun went to receive supplies, they were a little stunned when they looked at the almost invisible frame.
"Um, Gongwei, have we come to the wrong place?" Huangfusong looked at the endless carriage frame and said with a smile, "Did you drink again, too much, and misjudged the place where we were asked to receive supplies?
.”
"Well, although I didn't drink, I guess I really saw it wrong." Zhu Jun rarely criticized Huangfu Song directly. He looked back at the hundred strong men he brought with him who were preparing to carry supplies. It was obvious that this was impossible.
It's their supplies. Their supplies combined can support twenty carts.
"Let's go, let's go, go back, hurry up and see where our supplies should be received. Don't make a mistake again. We agreed with Chen Zichuan to work as soon as we got the supplies. But when the supplies arrived, we didn't receive them. That's our problem." Huangfu Song turned around and prepared to run away.
"Yes, hurry up and pick up the supplies." Upon hearing this, Zhu Jun also followed Huangfu Song and ran, training troops and so on, which is much more interesting than watching others unload supplies here.
"Hey, where are the people? Where are General Huangfu and General Zhu?" When the old captain of the post station asked people to unload the supplies, he ran over to notify Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun to receive them. When they found that the two people who were there just now had disappeared, he immediately ordered someone Hurry up and chase.
"Ha, you said those are our supplies?" After all, Huangfusong and Zhu Jun came here on two legs. They were no match for the six-legged postmen. They were quickly overtaken. However, after hearing this, Huangfusong and Zhu Jun Directly express disbelief.
"Yes, two generals, that's the supplies sent to the two generals." The postman said respectfully. Many of these old people used to hang out with Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.
"It seems that I read it correctly. It is probably Chen Zichuan who hid under the pile of supplies to save trouble." Zhu Jun touched his chin and said.
"This is too much. It's a bit too much to use military supplies like this, and they didn't tell us in advance." Huangfusong said dissatisfied.
Although the two said so, they ran over happily. After all, receiving supplies was really a big deal for their generation.
Although receiving supplies in the past was mostly scary, for example, if you wanted to arm 500 cavalry or something, then the logistics would send you 500 gun heads or something.
Isn’t it a surprise, but Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are used to this kind of thing, at least they have supplies delivered, and five hundred gun heads are also supplies!
The two of them ran over quickly. Huangfusong and Zhu Jun happily watched a group of people unloading supplies, "You said there are a few cars here that belong to us."
"I've seen it. This is the big yellow bow I want, although it hasn't been wound up yet." Zhu Jun's sharp eyes quickly saw his supplies, "This is the quiver, handguards, chain armor, and wrist guards equipped by the archers. , Well, there is also a one-handed knife for melee combat, well, there are actually arm shields, shoulder armors, helmets, and combat boots, not bad, not bad, I have all these supplies."
"Then I guess mine is at the back." Huangfusong said with great satisfaction.
"Speaking of which, this must be the first time I received supplies without any shortage. By the way, what is this?" Zhu Jun suddenly pointed at a cart of triangular nails and said, but as soon as he said the words, he understood what they were. " What a prodigal. There are so many defensive weapons like this. Who wants them? I'll go talk to him."
"Who wants these?" Huangfu Song also felt very dissatisfied. Important steel was actually used to make such things. What's the use of defense? If you change the equipment, you can just kill the opponent.
"These are the materials belonging to the two generals." The postman flipped through his book, and luckily it was Chang'an and the team leader was literate, so he was sure that these materials belonged to Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.
"We don't want this!" Zhu Jun said unhappily, "If this belongs to us, just give me a car of other equipment later."
"I also have the same attitude. No matter what kind of defensive weapon you want, this thing can't deal with anything." Huangfu Song also said that this was not his fault.
"Then wait a minute. I'll write this down for you and report it back later. You'd better receive the supplies first." Of course, the team leader quickly wrote down the request of the two bosses, but he still urged them to receive it quickly. , check and accept materials.
Soon Huangfusong's cavalry supplies also arrived. Although it was the first time he saw a horse shoe, Huangfusong still figured out how to use it and felt that it was a good thing.
"Not bad, not bad. I have all the supplies. This is the first time in so many years that I have seen no shortage of supplies when receiving supplies. Tsk tsk, move things, let's go." Huangfusong expressed his satisfaction and was full of motivation to work. .
Zhu Jun also had the same attitude, saying that he would immediately start training the army when he came back, and then began to direct the soldiers to carry supplies on the spot, preparing to go back.
"Hey, you two, don't leave. We haven't finished the inspection yet." The team leader saw Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were about to leave and quickly stopped them. If they ran away, no one would inspect them, and things would be lost, the responsibility would be on themselves.
"Ha, what other supplies are there?" Zhu Jun said in confusion.
"It's probably a gift from Chen Zichuan." Huangfusong said that he and Chen Xi have a good relationship. They have chatted many times and are very familiar with each other. Occasionally, the other party will give surprises, and now this kind of thing is obviously a surprise. Although the surprise of triangular nails is better.
"What are the bonus materials?" Zhu Jun nodded, thinking that Chen Xi might indeed do this, so he asked the team leader at the station.
"Bonus supplies?" The team leader looked at Zhu Jun in confusion, not understanding at all. He flipped through his account book, scratched his head and said, "General, that's all."
"That's it, then why did you call us here?" Zhu Jun said dissatisfiedly, looking at the captain with a majestic look. The aura of commanding the army made the captain feel a little chilled.
"I mean these." Although the team leader was frightened by Zhu Jun's momentum, he still said the words exactly as they were. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun didn't understand. After a while, the two of them looked back with numbness. More than 400 truckloads of supplies.
"This...are these our supplies?" Huangfu Song was not only surprised at this time, but also frightened. He pointed tremblingly at the seemingly invisible tail of the motorcade, and looked at the station team with wide eyes. Shu said.
"Yes, the records I have here belong to two generals. These need to be inspected and accepted." The team leader pushed the account book again and confirmed that this was indeed the case. "A total of 500 carts of supplies need to be inspected and accepted. I also invite the two generals. Take someone to check."
"Ouch..." Zhu Jun suddenly jumped up.
On the other side, Huangfusong said with an expressionless expression that it didn't hurt at all, and he was indeed dreaming.
"Your knife pierced my thigh, of course it doesn't hurt you!" Zhu Jun roared with a dark face.
"Is this true?" Huangfu Song suddenly said in ecstasy, "There are so many supplies, so many supplies, it's really great."
"You can do it." Zhu Jun pulled out the knife stuck in his thigh with a dark face and stabbed Huangpu Song's thigh, "Does it hurt?"
