Chapter 638 Chapter 637

Two months ago, Wuyue Kingdom suddenly launched a sporadic attack on Wuyueguan. The Zhendong Army was delayed due to military pay, and the soldiers were half-starved for a long time, and they suffered heavy losses after several battles.

The Zhendong army has asked the imperial court for help several times, but they only hoped for a long time that they would not return to the imperial court for a reply.

Here I want to talk about the difference between ordinary memorials and battle reports:

Ordinary memorials can only go through the normal procedure, one by one station transfer, which naturally takes a long time, and occasionally, if you can get halfway through the memorial, it will be dropped for you.

The battle reports are different, the battle reports are all rushed, and the soldiers do not change but the riders, either riding a thousand-mile horse or a fast horse, rushing to deliver them day and night.

However, according to the rules, such things as urging the army's salary cannot be expedited in the way of sending battle reports, but in the way of ordinary memorials.

That is to say, the memorial to the Zhendong Army defending Wuyueguan two months ago to urge the army to pay may not have arrived at the Ministry of War. This is not according to the rules.

But there is nothing wrong with this, isn't there a saying that "the generals will not accept the orders of the military in foreign countries".

It's already such an urgent situation, so behave yourself.

In this matter, the Ministry of Household Affairs is designated to eat melons.

Wuyueguan is far away, and it takes two or three months for ordinary fast horses to go from the capital to Wuyueguan. If it is to transport military pay, it is generally necessary to set off at least half a year in advance.

Therefore, the military salary of the Zhendong Army at Wuyueguan is included in the group that receives military salary every three years.

Once every three years, your household department has delayed it for almost half a year.

It's fine if nothing happens.

But now something happened at Wuyue Pass.

Qi Baoer looked at the direction of Hubu and frowned tightly.

In fact, she didn't understand some of the actions of the Ministry of Finance.

You said that what you are managing is the state treasury and not your own private treasury, and the military salary is not something you can stop paying if you delay;

What's the point of doing this all the time, except to offend others, and even endanger the safety of the country and the family?
If Qi Baoer asked Wang Shangshu this question, Wang Shangshu would definitely cry and tell her that there was no way.

Qilin National University, although it collects a lot of taxes every year, it spends even more.

The catastrophe in the north and the south nine years ago, post-disaster reconstruction, appeasing the victims, ensuring their future survival, etc., have already taken out almost half of the national treasury; half of the military pay has been taken out, and the national treasury is basically empty.

After the catastrophe, Shengshang Rende exempted the disaster area from taxes for three years.

The emperor is benevolent and righteous, but the treasury has shrunk greatly.

Although it gradually eased up after three years, in those three years, the imperial court owed a lot of debts to a lot of wealthy businessmen.

After paying it back for so many years, it's only worth paying it off.

As the minister in charge of the household department, he can't afford to spend a penny as two pennies and arrange it tightly.

Wang Shangshu slumped on the chair, staring at Shang Chengfeng who was standing at the table and glaring at him in a daze, his lips trembling and unable to speak for a long time.

Shang Chengfeng originally wanted to beat him up, but seeing him like this, he couldn't let go for a while.

Although the six ministries are said to be in charge of each department separately, each of the ministries actually counts each other.

Especially the household department, it can be said that everyone is staring at how much money is in the treasury. Others don't know the specific figure, but the general range is still there.

Speaking of which, among the six Shangshu, he and Wang Shangshu are somewhat similar, and they are both in danger.

The two of them took the position of Minister in the same year. He was promoted from the position of servant because the former Minister of the Ministry of War died of sudden illness; Wang Shangshu was promoted because the former Minister of the Ministry of Households participated in an ink corruption case.

However, he is better than Wang Shangshu. He has served in the Ministry of War for many years. After he was hurriedly promoted to Shangshu, he was a little messy at the beginning, but he was able to get started quickly.

As for Wang Shangshu, he was the magistrate of Jingzhou, and everything was completely unfamiliar when he entered the household department. The previous Shangshu left him a lot of mess.

Shang Chengfeng knew that Wang Shangshu didn't default on the payment of the army on purpose, but that the treasury really couldn't afford all the military payments of the troops.

Shang Chengfeng knew better that Wang Shangshu didn't want to offend people. It's not right to give the military pay first, and it's not right to delay that. Release again.

Shang Chengfeng was naturally dissatisfied with this.

He also submitted several memorials to the emperor because of this, but the emperor did not signal, did not ask him, and did not punish Wang Shangshu, and the several memorials were muddy.

On the contrary, because of his several times of turning up, the relationship between the two military departments became more and more deviated, making the situation of each army even more difficult.

That's why he took a step back, trying his best not to confront the Ministry of Finance, but only asked the generals in Beijing to mention more about the delay in the payment of the troops in the court, to remind the Ministry of Finance and the emperor.

Unexpectedly, it was still too late.

"The military salary at the border has never been in arrears in all dynasties. You and I are officials in the same dynasty. I have been paid to the emperor several times. Do you really think that I am against you?"

If it wasn't for those soldiers, I don't care if your surname is Wang or Ba.

At this moment, Wang Shangshu was frightened by the news brought by Shang Chengfeng, and his soul was a little bit out of his body. Shang Chengfeng's words should be changed as usual. He could stand up and fight with him for three days and three nights, but now, he no longer has that energy. It's stronger than that.

"Shang, Mr. Shang, the military pay for the Zhendong Army was paid out a few days ago."

That said, he himself felt guilty.

Shang Chengfeng couldn't hold back his anger any longer, he slammed his fist on the table in front of Wang Shangshu, and instantly the huanghuali solid wood table sank into a big hole with a click.

"You dragged the Zhendong army's salary for more than half a year, and that was half a year. Two months ago, the Zhendong army fought against the Wuyue Kingdom. We starved the Zhendong army for several months. How did you let the Zhendong army fight Wuyue?" Fighting against the Moon Kingdom?"

The more he scolded, the more angry he was, Shang Chengfeng walked around the table and picked up Wang Shangshu, spitting all over his face.

"Every one of the soldiers who died in the Zhendong Army was killed by your household department. I'll see if you can still eat and sleep peacefully at night from now on."

Throwing away Wang Shangshu, who was already so frightened that his whole body went limp, Shang Chengfeng walked away quickly with the anger still on his face.

There was a lot of movement between the two ministers in the office. When Shang Chengfeng went out, he received many probing, puzzled, or frightened eyes.

Shang Chengfeng, who came out of the battle on the battlefield, really got angry with the evil spirit that ordinary people can bear, everyone in the household department was frightened by him and instinctively kept away from him.

The others disappeared for a long time before officials dared to run into Wang Shangshu's office to check on his situation.

"My lord, my lord, what's the matter with you, my lord? Come on, come on quickly, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War knocked our lord unconscious."
