Zhu Bai looked at the warehouse manager gloomily: "You are so brave. Tell me! Where did all the food go?!"
The warehouse chief lowered his head and said as loudly as a mosquito: "I don't know."
Zhu Bai nodded: "I will tell you for you. The food here has been transported to the official warehouse in advance. Because you have received wind, Mr. An will come to inspect the official warehouse today."
If Hu Weiyong and the others want to use the "Great Shift of the World", they definitely don't have that many carriages, and they will definitely have to borrow military horses or civilian horses.
Zhu Bai now controls all the horses, and Hu Weiyong can only use manpower to move them.
In such a short period of time, it is impossible to transport it from a distance relying on manpower.
Zhu Bai asked An Ran to draw lots and Fei Zhen supervised. Zhu Bai himself couldn't predict who would be checked next, so there was no leakage.
And no one can guarantee that Enron will not win the same granary again.
Zhu Bai said: "Lock the door and take them to Yingtian for interrogation. Qianhu trouble must guard this place. I am afraid that someone will set fire to it. If anything goes wrong here again, it will be all your responsibility."
Changzhou Wei Qianhu cursed his mother in his heart.
This military granary originally collected the food for their troops, but everyone took it away.
Zhu Bai asked Fugui: "Where will Mr. An go next?"
Someone will inform the local official bureau of the results of the Enron lottery. The Guanya Bureau has just sent someone to deliver the letter.
Fugui said: "Hangzhou."
Zhu Bai said: "Okay, let's go to Hangzhou too."
After a day of tossing like this, Hu Weiyong and the others were completely fooled by the game, and they were focused on their heads rather than their buttocks.
And in this case, the granary manager can't care about the life and death of others. He just closes the granary door and guards his own grain, for fear of being picked out by Zhu Bai for a surprise inspection.
Zhu Bai stayed at Guanya Bureau at night, leaving only his own guards to protect him.
An Ran and Fei Zhen were resting at the nearby Guan Ya Inn, and all the pro-army captains went to protect them.
The Guanya Bureau is stronger than the prison and the city wall.
So if anyone wants to do something to Zhu Bai, he must not do it at night.
During the day, he came and went again without a trace. If you followed him, your intention was too obvious, you would be killed directly, and you didn't know where the ambush was.
Lao Zhu laughed when he heard Erhu's report: "Oh, this kid is as smart as a fox, and he can also fight guerrillas."
On the next morning, An Ran and Zhu Bai originally planned to draw their own lots.
An Ran drew "Mingzhou".
The Mingzhou Army Granary was not only one of the granaries sent to Yandi and Dingliao military rations, but also supplied most of the navy's rations, which was very important.
Zhu Bai's eyes lit up as he stared at the note in An Ran's hand, his body tensed, clearly suppressing his excitement and nervousness.
An Ran and the others didn't know Zhu Bai's temper and didn't notice anything strange. They said goodbye to Zhu Bai and went to Mingzhou.
Zhang Yu and others asked Zhu Bai: "Your Highness, what are your plans?"
Zhu Bai sat down and said, "Have a rest, don't be in a hurry."
Zhang Yu and the others looked at each other but couldn't say anything.
Zhu Bai really started drinking tea.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Zhu Bai stood up and said, "It's better to choose a day than to hit it. We will also go to Mingzhou today."
The Lin Xian who dared to stab him in the back was in Mingzhou.
He wanted to see what kind of audacious person he was.
The journey from Hangzhou to Mingzhou is smooth.
Because there are affluent areas along the way and the terrain is relatively flat, the official roads are wider and smoother than elsewhere.
The horse runs very effortlessly.
So Zhu Bai and the others rode faster than usual, moving forward at full speed, and sure enough they caught up with An Ran.
Seeing An Ran entering Mingzhou City from a distance, Zhu Bai went straight to the military grain depot without disturbing An Ran.
The military ration depot is at the port.
Zhu Bai saw a ship entering the harbor from a distance.
Hey, is it because we couldn't get a carriage that we changed the water route to play "The Great Shift of the Universe"?
Quite smart.
The warehouse chief of the military grain depot led five to six hundred people and blocked Zhu Bai from entering.
How come there are so many guards in a military granary?
He must be from Mingzhou Guard.
He vaguely recognized a few of them, like the people who stopped him and Zhu Biao from putting out the fire at the gate of the Taicang Army Granary that day.
Lu Zhongheng's deputy general only brought a few dozen guards.
There were two to three hundred people blocking Taicang that day.
Haha, it's true that "you can't find anything even if you wear iron shoes, but it takes no effort to get it."
Zhu Bai sneered secretly and took out the gold medal with an expressionless face: "Anyone who stands in the way of this king will be killed without mercy."
Zhang Yu and his fellow captains drew out their Yanling knives and fire blunderbuss.
Those people also gave way and refused to leave. They closed their eyes and folded their arms, looking like "you can kill them as you wish."
With them like this, it would be difficult for Zhang Yu and the guards to take action.
After all, after all, we are all guards of the Ming Dynasty, so what's the point of killing each other?
And the other side is now defenseless.
But they are Zhu Bai's people and cannot disobey Zhu Bai's orders.
The two sides were at a stalemate.
"Your Highness," someone shouted.
Everyone turned around and saw a general galloping towards them on horseback.
When the man arrived in front of Zhu Bai, he rolled off his saddle and dismounted, and saluted: "I am late. Your Highness, please forgive me."
Zhu Bai glanced at him. He had a thin and dark face and a medium and lean build. His official title and identity could not be seen.
Nowadays, the official uniforms of the Ming Dynasty have not yet been patched on the official uniforms according to grade. Civil servants can barely distinguish them by color and hat. Military attachés are basically indiscriminate, especially those who are deployed abroad.
Lao Zhu was also more tolerant of the military attachés who were released to the outside world, and did not use this to restrain them.
Because they have to wear armor, it's just as long as it's strong enough to save their lives in critical situations, and they don't care about much else.
Zhang Yu whispered: "This is Lin Xian."
Zhu Bai suddenly realized: Oh, it’s you.
Damn it, you did so many tricks behind my back. If I don’t make you peel off this time, will I let you go? !
He dismounted and looked around Lin Xian with interest.
Probably because his eyes were too warm and excited, Lin Xian felt like a chicken being stared at by a weasel, with a cold feeling on his back.
Zhu Bai said calmly: "Master Lin leads the troops well, but he dares to stop me from carrying out the emperor's orders again and again. Is this an attempt to rebel?"
Lin Xian hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Highness will atone for your sins. Today, several ships of food have arrived at the port. The process of transporting food is quite tense and dangerous. I was afraid that His Highness would be injured if he went in, so he asked soldiers to stop His Highness at the door."
Haha, I didn’t deny that this was the second time he stopped me. Tsk tsk tsk, don’t fight yourself.
Zhu Bai asked: "Do you take charge of the Mingzhou granary?"
Lin Xian hurriedly said: "No, it's just related to the rations of tens of thousands of soldiers at the Mingzhou Guard Station, so Wei Chen is more concerned and nervous."
Tsk tsk, no leaks.
Zhu Bai said: "Master Lin not only cares about the Mingzhou Army Granary but also the Taicang Army Granary. His loyalty is commendable."
Lin Xian looked calm: "Wei Chen doesn't understand what His Highness is talking about."
Zhu Bai said to Zhang Yu: "Master Zhang, first arrest these people who stopped us from putting out the fire at the gate of the Taicang Army Granary, and let the pro-army captain interrogate them carefully to find out who ordered them."
The soldiers immediately looked panicked and opened their eyes.
If the pro-military captain came to interrogate them, it would be easier to be stabbed to death.
Zhu Bai was secretly amused: Haha, isn't this just asking for it?
