Many people wondered who might have made a mistake again and was caught by the young marshal. However, as time went by, the less Liu Haojia spoke, the quieter the conference hall became, with only the breathing of dozens of officers remaining.
When everyone was waiting for scars, Liu Haojia finally said slowly: "Since the establishment of the Navy, except for a very small number of people, I have never punished anyone! I thought that as brothers, we can help each other to make the Navy better. If we do this, everyone will be promoted and rich, but it seems that some people don’t give me face!”
Although the officer below did not move, his eyes were darting around. Although they can't see the expressions of their companions on either side, they can definitely see the expressions of the person opposite!
Some of the officers on the opposite side were surprised, some were dumbfounded, some were panicked, and some even felt eager to try! Now everyone knows that Liu Haojia is ready to hit the wall, and the wall will not be knocked down lightly! So everyone calmed down and listened carefully to what Liu Haojia planned to do next.
I saw him sitting up straight and taking out a document from the pile of documents in front of him. He opened it and read: "Qi Hai, Zhao Kangliang..."
Liu Haojia read out the names of five officers in one breath. When he put down the paperwork and looked at the motionless ranks of officers on both sides, he sneered and said, "What's the matter? You didn't come out even after your name was called. Are you still waiting for me to invite you?"
Most of the officers on both sides were officers from the Nanyang Fleet who had been transferred to the defense, so they obviously had no impression of this group of people or had heard of them. Even a few of them had met them and had no contact with them, so their demeanor was quite natural. But the faces of the officers who stayed behind the fleet were much brighter! Because these five people are all the people Liu Haojia arranged in the logistics!
The five people whose names were called had no choice but to stand up. After leaving work, they did not salute Liu Haojia, but stood straight there waiting for Liu Haojia to speak. It looks like they are not ready to admit guilt!
Upon seeing this, Liu Haojia sneered and said, "It seems you still think you are invincible, don't you? If you haven't confessed your guilt at this time, do you think we have to wait until I deal with you?"
A man in front of him raised his hand and said, "Young Marshal, I ask myself, working in the navy can be regarded as conscientious, so what's the crime?"
Upon hearing this, a few officers of the Beiyang Fleet showed some anger on their faces, but since it was the time for the young marshal to ask questions, they did not dare to interrupt. But they really want to hear what Liu Haojia can say? Read the book
Liu Haojia pointed at this person with his finger and said: "There is an old saying among the people that you will not die until you reach the Yellow River. Another sentence is that you will not shed tears until you see the coffin! I think you are this kind of person!"
After speaking, Liu Haojia lowered his head, opened the document and read: "Zhao Kangliang, identity... I bought back two thousand kilograms of pig iron. The texture is brittle and cannot be used for much purpose! I can only..., the total cost..."
"...Purchased 50 tons of cotton for making cotton armor, all of which are cotton with seeds...,...the difference is the total public expense..."
By the time Liu Haojia read the third item, Zhao Kangliang had already knelt down with a "plop"! Liu Haojia looked up when he heard the noise and said with a smile: "Hey, are you kneeling now? I still have a long article to read here! But whatever, I will also read two of other people's questions to see if they can Don’t know how to kneel down?”
As a result, the four people behind him were already kneeling on the ground without waiting for Liu Haojia to read the documents! Several people shouted at the same time: "Young Marshal, have mercy!"
Liu Haojia threw the documents on the table and said: "I have repeatedly said that I hate corruption the most. I am afraid that everyone will not have enough money to spend, so I have increased the wages of everyone here! But why can't you control it? ? And look at where you start, they are made of iron, but they are used to make weapons and armor for the brothers! Do you want the brothers to go to war with swords that break when touched, and armor that can be worn through when poked? Also, how do you make cotton armor from cotton with seeds?"
Liu Haojia pointed at several people and cursed them one by one, citing their sins. The scolding made these people look pale! After he scolded him, he said: "Forget it, you don't understand what I've told you so much. Maybe you just regret that you were caught! Come here, take back their seals, strip off their clothes and armor, and put them in jail pending trial!" "
The soldiers standing on both sides heard the words and were about to step forward to catch these people, but Zhao Kangliang suddenly stood up and said loudly
: "Master Liu, you have no right to take advantage of us! Your father is the commander-in-chief of the navy, not you! I want to write to the imperial court to help you!"
Several other people also stood up and shouted loudly, saying that Liu Haojia had no right to lock them up! Although their attitude is tough, everyone can see that they are just fierce and cruel!
Liu Haojia heard them arguing but did not refute, just looked at them coldly. When they calmed down, he sneered and said: "You are right, I am indeed not the commander-in-chief of the navy, so my handling of you is indeed a bit unfair! In this case, let the supervisor come. Say a few words!"
Only then did everyone remember that there was a supervisor in the navy, and they couldn't help but look at the corner. There was a grand master's chair there, and a middle-aged eunuch seemed to be sitting there dozing off. There was also a row of sturdy eunuchs and fans standing motionless behind the chairs.
In many armies of the Ming Dynasty, there were supervisors. The supervisors were basically all eunuchs from the palace. So the Navy is naturally no exception. However, the supervisors here in the Navy are very different from those in other places!
The supervisor of the navy here is named Zhang Li, one of Zhang Jia's godsons. After Zhang Li took office, he seemed to be transparent and never spoke on official matters. When Liu Haojia was handling official affairs, he did not participate like other supervisors. Instead, he sat far away, not knowing whether he was napping or thinking about something!
As for normal times, he is just like the Smiling Buddha, walking around and looking here and there, without any airs of supervising the army. Even when facing the soldiers, she was always kind and cheerful, but she was nicknamed "grandma" among the soldiers!
Today he was still sitting far away and dozing off as usual, and seemed to have heard nothing! But as soon as Liu Haojia finished speaking, he slowly stood up. When he waddled to the side of the handsome case, he first bowed his hand to Liu Haojia, and then said to all the officers: "Everyone, our family knows that we have no ability, so we know not to talk or do things randomly, otherwise it will cause trouble. It’s not easy to deal with! But since the Young Marshal asked us to talk a few words, we happen to have something to talk to you about.”
