Chapter 3482

Xu Lin was so frightened on the spot that he knelt directly in front of Tang Yu.

Ironclad evidence was placed in front of Xu Lin, and the other party realized that he could not escape the death penalty.

"Your Majesty, calm down! I was just confused for a moment..."

Tang Yu was extremely angry and laughed back: "A moment of confusion? No wonder the Tang Dynasty collects grain every year, but the grain in the granary is getting less and less. It turns out it's all because of you moths."

"Come here, put the criminal Xu Lin in prison, and check all of Xu Lin's property!"

After the words fell, several iron guards stepped forward and pressed Xu Lin out. All the civil and military officials were frightened, with fear in their eyes, fearing that Tang Yu's anger would fall on them.

As the saying goes, there are three things that make a new official take office, let alone Tang Yu, who is the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

The old fox Xu Shize was not surprised at all. He had long expected that Tang Yu would kill the chicken to scare the monkeys in the morning. If he was to blame, it was Xu Lin who committed suicide and dared to plan for food and grass.

Seeing the nervous expressions of the people below, Tang Yu also realized that he had acted as a deterrent.

Killing chickens to scare monkeys is indeed effective.

"I will not continue to investigate Xu Lin's matter, but if I find out who dares to steal people's food and grass again, I guarantee that his consequences will be a hundred times more serious than Xu Lin's!"

Many people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Tang Yu would not continue to pursue the case.

The next second, Tang Yu looked at Meng Tian and continued: "Let's talk about the situation of the military personnel."

This is also the issue that Tang Yu is most concerned about.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Meng Tian stood up, took out the list that had been prepared, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, there are currently a total of 200,000 Golden Fire Cavalry. Many were injured in the battle. In addition, there are also soldiers left over from the Tang Dynasty and rebels. More than 100,000 people.”

"Li Jing's army only has 150,000 troops left, plus 10,000 special forces members, the total is 460,000 troops."

Four hundred and sixty thousand?

After hearing this number, Tang Yu couldn't help but frown. The battle was more intense than he thought.

Just to deal with the Nanliang army, the Golden Fire Cavalry sacrificed many people. If Dachu attacked Datang at this time, the number of casualties would continue to increase.

Meng Tian continued: "Apart from the sacrifices on the battlefield, the biggest problem lies in food and grass. The food and grass needed by hundreds of thousands of troops every day is a huge expense, and there is not much food and grass left in the army now. , a rough calculation can probably last for a few months.”

Hearing this, Tang Yu's head suddenly got big. He really didn't know how expensive firewood and rice were without being a master.

As the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, he did not need to worry about these matters at all, but as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he had to solve these difficult problems.

In the past, Datang could still guarantee the expenditure of food and fodder for the army.

But with the turmoil in the Tang Dynasty and the war with Nanliang, the people had no extra food in their hands. If they continued to collect food, the people would really be scolded.

Therefore, the road of collecting grain and grass is not feasible, and Tang Yu can only find another way to find a solution to the problem of grain and grass.

"I will take care of the food and grass matters. What you have to do is to be ready to fight at any time. Da Chu's ambition will not die. Sooner or later we will have a tough battle with Da Chu."

"There is also the matter of building a high wall that must be proven as soon as possible."

After giving all instructions, Tang Yu announced the end of the morning session and sighed helplessly.

This emperor is really not that easy to be a man!
