Chapter 97
: Dead first and then report
As long as you have a seal, you can issue official documents and orders. As long as you can issue official documents, you can perform your functions. This is also a funny place in the Twenty-Four Towns, because the lack of officers is very serious, and the situation of one person taking part in multiple positions is very common.
"What? Is there such a thing?" He Fuguang was surprised.
It is obvious that as a second-class staff officer, He Fuguang is also responsible for the affairs of the Army Military Preparation Academy. He is busy all day long, so of course he is not sure about Liang Kui's affairs.
Xu Haiying also looked puzzled.
Wu Shaoting could understand all these. Even if he, the person who often goes to the commander's office, was the news he just heard yesterday. How could He Fuguang and Xu Haiying know?
"If there is no evidence, I would not have acted so hasty. More than ten officers from the third battalion of the first bid jointly identified Liang Kui. Last month, those who distributed military salaries were all certified to check." Wu Shaoting said with a very affirmative tone.
"Have you reported this to the Army Yamen?" He Fuguang asked. He could see that since Wu Shaoting dared to lead the team to find Liang Kui, it means that this matter must be a false one. However, he still felt that it was not safe to handle this matter with Wu Shaoting alone, at least he had to follow the procedures step by step.
"I will inform the Army Yamen, but before that, I will take down Liang Kui first to correct the morale of the army." Wu Shaoting said.
"Mr. Wu, you won't be too hasty to do this?" Xu Haiying said worriedly.
"Yes, you arrested people without even notifying the yamen. If there is any misunderstanding in this matter, how can you take responsibility?" He Fuguang said deeply, his face no longer looked good. He knew that Wu Shaoting, a young man, was still too impulsive and too self-righteous.
"As the chief inspector, I have no right to enforce the law in the army? Lord He, Lord Xu, since I want to deal with this matter, I naturally know the consequences. I will bear the consequences." Wu Shaoting finished this sentence with great momentum, and then stopped delaying it. He Fuguang and Xu Haiying and led the people to the direction of the Army Yamen.
He Fuguang and Xu Haiying looked at Wu Shaoting's back, and their faces were very complicated. After hesitating for a while, they immediately discussed briefly. He Fuguang decided to go to the Army Yamen to inform him immediately, and asked Xu Haiying to go to the First Bian battalions to ask whether Liang Kui's corruption was true.
Wu Shaoting came to the officer dormitory on the Army Yamen and immediately ordered to surround Liang Kui's house.
At this time, Liangkui was still sleeping soundly, not knowing what was happening outside.
When Wu Shaoting came forward and slapped the door heavily, Liang Kui suddenly woke up from her sleep and jumped out of the bed and sat upright. He was stunned for a while until the door was knocked again and came to his senses.
"Fuck, who?" He cursed in discomfort.
"Open the door quickly!" Wu Shaoting scolded coldly.
Liang Kui didn't hear who the person outside was. He felt something was wrong. Maybe something really happened. He didn't even have time to put on his clothes, and hurriedly jumped off the bed and ran to the door to open the door. When he saw that the person was Wu Shaoting, his heart became angry again, but just as he was about to curse, Wu Shaoting pushed him open rudely and rushed in like this.
Four and five fully armed soldiers followed Wu Shaoting.
Liangkui felt a chill when she saw this, and her first impression was that Wu Shaoting was about to rebel.
"You, what do you want to do? Do you rebel?" Liang Kui said in shock, unable to help but take a few steps back.
"Sir General Staff, I came here today to arrest you. You deserve it. This is not considered a rebellion." Wu Shaoting said coldly.
"What? Arrest me? Why do you arrest me? What crime did I commit?" Liangkui felt a little relieved when she heard this. If she encountered rebellion, then she would be considered in danger today. But now that she is saying that she is committing a crime, the situation is completely different. He is a bannerman and a nobleman, and even if he is murdering and setting fire, he can easily settle it.
"You withhold military pay, which has led to a major change in the morale of the army. Do you still want to deny such a serious crime?" Wu Shaoting scolded. When he saw Liang Kui recovering from a proud look, he felt angry.
"Hmph, I'm deducting military pay? What evidence do you have?" Liang Kui said with a calm expression. For him, embezzling some military pay is not a big deal. Now, which army can eliminate corruption in various provinces across the country? Even the six Beiyang towns, which are known as the role model of the new army, cannot do it.
Wu Shaoting no longer talked to Liang Kui. He knew that Liang Kui was not from Guangzhou and was an active-duty soldier, so his residence could only be this dormitory. Of course, Liang Kui was also possible to purchase real estate in the city, but if Liang Kui wanted to transport so many batches of military pay out of the western suburbs, it would be not that easy. In other words, there would definitely be some silver embezzled by Liang Kui in this dormitory, and there would be more or less other clues.
"Search for me." He immediately issued an order.
"Dare you searching me? Well, Wu Shaoting, I knew you were uneasy. When I was in the old army, I dared to hold my boss with a gun. Now that I have arrived at the new army, I dare to do rash things! You have the courage to try it and see how I will kill you." Liangkui widened her eyes and shouted angrily.
"When I was in the old army, I dared to knock on my boss with a gun, but I still dared to be in the new army." Wu Shaoting said, pulling out his Mauser pistol from his waist, and directly pulling the bolt and loading it up and aiming it at Liang Kui.
Liang Kui was stunned on the spot. He never expected that Wu Shaoting would really dare to act seriously!
"Search!" Wu Shaoting ordered again.
Several soldiers immediately began to act.
Liangkui's dormitory is a high-end dormitory or a two-bedroom and one living room layout. In addition to one bedroom, the other is a study. However, it is obvious that Liangkui does not have the leisure and elegance to read and write, and there are miscellaneous items in the entire study. The soldiers quickly found several exquisite small boxes from the study and the bed. They placed the small boxes one by one in the middle of the living room and asked Wu Shaoting to check it.
"Open." Wu Shaoting ordered.
A soldier stepped forward and opened the boxes one by one. He saw that the top of each box was filled with golden gold bars, and there were many silver banknotes, bank deposit notes and silver ingots under the gold bars. Although these boxes were not big and there were not many in total, just by visual inspection, you could tell that the thin and soft inside these boxes was as high as thousands of taels.
Liangkui's face turned a little cold, but she still maintained a calm expression.
"What is this?" Wu Shaoting asked Liang Kui.
