The governor, who is in charge of the first rank, governs the military and civilians, integrates civil and military affairs, procures officials, and repairs the border.

This was the authority of the Qing Dynasty's governor, and it had an extremely high status in the Qing Dynasty. However, the Jiangning General was a different system. The Qing Dynasty had 14 garrison generals, all of which were above the governor.

Shengjing, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Suiyuan City, Jiangning, Fuzhou, Hangzhou, Jingzhou, Xi'an, Ningxia, Yili, Chengdu, Guangzhou, and Uliya Sutai. These 14 generals held the power of life and death, and were only responsible to the Qing emperors.

Jiangning General Fucha Fuqing was one of the 14 garrison generals at this time. General Fu Qing's actions were no faster than the vanguard. Although he had decided to occupy Jurong, he had not yet reached the login position provided by his staff.

At this moment, a small letter delivery boat came up on the river. General Fucha Fuqing received the report and was shocked after reading two paragraphs.

The vanguard official openly wrote that perhaps there were spies from the Chinese army in the Qing army. Or in other words, someone had already defected to the Chinese army in the Qing army.

After making such a simple and clear accusation, the pioneer officer wrote the reason, "The newspaper of the traitor who saw the humble official and talked about the plan of the official army..."

Fu Qing read a few paragraphs and soon saw the part about the Qing army raiding Jiangning City. If it were ordinary people, they would probably be amused by the first two paragraphs.

The Chinese army envisioned a means of siege, such as the Qing army could line up to the city of Jiangning and hit the wall with its head together. As long as the number of collisions was too many, the Qing army's head was strong enough, in theory, it could destroy the city wall in dozens or hundreds of years of impact.

After such a funny statement, the Chinese army believed that the Qing army was not so stupid, and they would take more effective measures. Then there were various offensive measures.

Fu Qing was not amused at all. He quickly skipped this description and seemed to be more serious about it later. It was indeed the Qing army's plan to use the Qing army's means of breaking through the city gate in Jiangning City.

Seeing this, there were vanguards. Fu Qing felt a little confused. Although it was normal to see through such a plan from the level of the Chinese Army, the Qing army did not have a better solution, so he really expected that the Chinese Army would not see through. Seeing that his plan was revealed, of course he felt that someone had planned it.

But Fu Qing also knew that at this time, he could not order any traitors to be searched. In the end, he could only order that no army was allowed to leave privately and to keep the secrets in the army.

At this time, the vanguard of the Qing army had given up on the siege. After writing this letter, it was certainly a vanguard of shock and anger. However, the vanguard of the heart knew that he was unwilling to take risks again. If there was no more terrifying remarks, the vanguard of the vanguard would not be able to make excuses for him to hold his troops under the city.

In order not to seem to be inactive, the vanguard officer still sent troops to start "searching for traitors" in the west of Jiangning City.

Shortly after the autumn harvest, the pioneer officer asked the inner officer to lead the way and entered the state-owned farms of various Chinese imperial courts. He saw that the land here had been harvested, the houses were empty, and almost nothing was left behind.

Even if the traitors were not caught, these empty houses could allow the Qing army to live in a place with roofs. The Qing army pioneers began to collect grain.

The insiders were all landlords and gentry, and they immediately pushed for the three and four obstacles. The vanguard officer was not willing to spoil these people, and immediately sent troops to the villages of these people to collect food and grass.

If he couldn't defeat Jiangning City, the vanguard felt that he could always deal with some rural landlords and gentry. After all, the landlords and gentry were Han people, and the vanguards were Manchus. Even if these Han people complained, there was nothing to be afraid of.

After two days of rest, the troops sent by the pioneer officer came back to report, "These people have no food at home."

The vanguard officer was furious and shouted immediately: "What are you talking nonsense? It must be that you didn't search carefully!"

The person sent to explain quickly, "Sir, I have searched several times. There is not much food in those warehouses, and I have brought them all back this time."

Of course, the pioneer officer didn't believe it, "There was no natural disaster this year, so why was there only such a little bit? Did those people eat all the food?"

"Sir, those people said, they sold all their food to the city."

"Take those people, I'm going to ask!"

In another day, all the landlords and gentry in the west of Jiangning City were brought. Seeing the vanguard's face with a vicious look, these landlords and gentry immediately knelt down and begged. Some clever ones also quickly explained.

In the past few lifetimes, grain sales have been very stable. Those who sell grain only have so much food in their hands, and it is impossible for those who buy grain to buy too much.

Unless there is any special sales route for buying grain, there will be a situation where grain is consumed a lot during storage and transportation.

However, the Chinese army in Jiangning City was as stupid as they purchased a large amount of grain. The landlords and gentry sold the grain.

When the vanguard heard this, he was so angry that he shouted loudly: "Why do you want to sell it? Why are you so bold and dare to sell it!"

The landlords and gentry dared not say anything. Everyone was smart, and it was already obvious that the vanguard of the official army was already a little crazy. At this time, what he did was entirely for himself, and then he took everyone's actions.

Many landlords and gentry had already considered how to get out and never deal with the Qing government troops again. Although the Chinese army in the city was a rebel, they were still evil rebels under the banner of land state. However, those rebels in the Chinese army would not act rebelliously on everyone because of their personal likes and dislikes.

Compared with the vanguard of the official army in front of him, the Chinese army rebels are like the King of Hell, and the vanguard of the official army is like a little ghost. It really goes with the saying that the King of Hell is more likely to see a little ghost.

A few days later, Fucha Fu Qing led a large group of troops to get off the boat further west of Jiangning. Some people suggested that the Qing army take a boat directly from the river north of Jiangning City and head straight for Jurong. Fu Qing was worried that the Chinese army would be ambushed, so he adopted a more stable approach.

Before the army moved, the food and grass were first. This time, it was a waterway, and the food and grass were transported to the landing place at the same time. Fu Qing called the vanguard officer and asked him to send people to act together.

A total of 120,000 people were dispatched this time, and 50,000 people arrived first. Fu Qing ordered 30,000 people to circle Jiangning and head to Jurong.

The vanguard received the order and immediately talked about the current situation. Fu Qing was puzzled after hearing this. The landlords were not surprised at all. However, selling the grain to the point where they only had enough to eat after the harvest next year was really puzzling.

Fu Qing knew that most of the things that were not understood in the war. If you wanted to figure it out, you should first arrange your troops to a place that you could control. Put down what the vanguard officer said, and Fu Qing ordered the Qing army to go out.

The scattered horses sent out in the city here have confirmed that the Qing army brigade has arrived. All the generals requested to leave the city to attack the Qing army. Lei Hu felt that if he was a few years younger, he would have made such a choice, but now he would not think so.

He felt a little satisfied, and Lei Hu tried his best to answer calmly: "Therefore, those who are good at fighting will be invincible and will not lose the defeat of the enemy. This time, the people are transported into the city, and our army has already been invincible. As for the Qing army, will they let them jump?"

The generals were not so calm. Some people said that they could destroy the enemy's arrogance first when they eliminated some enemies.

Lei Hu expressed his dissatisfaction, "Since our army will win, what can we do if the Qing army is arrogant now? The victorious army will win first and then seek war, and the defeated army will fight first and then seek victory. Our top priority is not to defeat the enemy, but to obey the court's instructions and let the Qing army surround outside Jiangning City."

Seeing that others wanted to express different opinions, Lei Hu interrupted their attempts, "The governor repeatedly said during his lecture at the military academy that those who are good at using military personnel practice Taoism and protect the law, so they can do the best of victory or defeat. I didn't understand before, but later I did more practical things and realized how difficult this was. What are the major problems that I encountered when defending the city? Everyone has studied in the military academy and tell me."

Seeing Lei Hu using his status to suppress others, these things will make them dare not say anything for the time being. They can only answer reluctantly.

When defending the city, troops, food, organization, information, and hygiene are all things that the defenders need to pay great attention to.

The audience of Lei Hu really didn't forget it, so they told the current situation in Jiangning City based on these key points. During the talk, someone hurried to ask the person in charge of the Logistics Department to handle the matter. Although the person in charge of the Logistics Department didn't know what was going on, he also knew that his subordinates would not make a fuss. In addition, Lei Hu's story was really unpleasant, so he went.

After two or three hours, the head of the logistics department rushed back and called the person in charge of the guards. After going to the logistics and the guards, everyone had some bad associations.

It just so happened that what should be said was finished. After the meeting, Lei Hu went to see what happened.

No one dared to conceal Lei Hu and Riesling. Soon, Lei Hu arrived at a grain warehouse. At this time, the lights in the grain warehouse were brightly lit, and a soldier in a military uniform died on the ground. Although he didn't know how long he had died, the body did not rot. Instead, because the air was dry, the body looked like a mummy.

Lei Hu saw several places on the ground with chalk, one of which was burned with candles less than half. And the door was left with several dried blood on the large iron door with rubber air cushion on the seal. It looked very tragic.

The person in charge of the investigation was called to ask questions. He wanted Lei Hu to introduce the situation. The man should have been locked inside and couldn't get out. The cause of death was suffocation. Before his death, the man found the door with the candle in his hand and knocked it desperately.

The people outside didn't know that there was someone inside and there was no one at the door, so naturally they didn't hear the tragic blood mark. It should be that this man finally tried his best to grab the door with his hands, trying to escape.

Lei Hu frowned when he heard this, and was about to blame the people in the grain warehouse for being so careless. The person in charge of the investigation said: "Commander, this person doesn't look like he was accidentally locked up. If he was locked up, he wouldn't have a candle in his hand."

"Ah?" Lei Hu was stunned. Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. If he was locked up in unintentionally, the man would have the windproof lanterns of the Chinese army, not civilian candles.

"Is it... the one who came to steal food?" Lei Hu felt something was wrong.

The investigator continued: "I don't know what this person is thinking. Also, Commander, this person has braids and deliberately stuffed them into the military cap."

Lei Hu knew that things were even more wrong and immediately said, "Look carefully and find out what's going on!"

Soon, the entire army began to count the number of people. The troops from each camp gathered together, and orders could be heard everywhere in Jiangning City.

‘There are all, report the number!’

"One", "Two", "Three", "Four"...

"Report, I have 34 people in line, but it's actually 34 people!"

"Report, I have been 34 people in line, but there are 32 people, and they are sick leave. It's appropriate to send someone to the house."

"Reported that I have checked a patient in my queue and are resting in the camp."

Starting from the most basic platoon-level units, the intelligence was summarized and reported layer by layer. At night, the intelligence was summarized and the entire army was there, and no soldiers were missing.

Since no one was missing, the man with braids and uniforms in military uniforms was likely to be a suspicious person from outside. The logistics department has retrieved records based on the grain warehouse and quickly determined who the person in charge was. He also started to question overnight.

After a day of hard work, I have a rough understanding of the overall situation.

At this moment, the investigative department handed over the latest breakthrough progress to everyone. A knife was found in the grain warehouse and a sack was cut from it. There was a small object that could hide from people. After investigation, it was probably confirmed that the deceased was hiding in the sack and entered the grain warehouse and came out of the sack.

Mouse shit was found in the bamboo tube found on the ground. After searching the entire grain warehouse, the bodies of several small mice were found.

Patch these together, and piece them together, a piece of content that an enemy spy tried to deliberately destroy the grain warehouse.

Lei Hu's face looked ugly, and the people involved in the matter in the headquarters were all dark. Seeing that the atmosphere was so depressing, the logistics manager said, "It seems that the comrades in charge of the ventilation of the grain warehouse are right. After using that method, even the insects cannot survive, let alone mice. They did not tell any lies."

Even if we knew that this was right, everyone was not satisfied. At this moment, the person in charge of the investigation gave a suggestion. Since we already knew how this person died, we also knew when he died. We will investigate all relevant personnel during this period.

Lei Hu listened quietly, and after listening, he asked the investigators to go down first. Then he said to the participants: "There are traitors among those people!"

The sound was not loud, but it made everyone's faces dark. If this person sneaked in like a thief, he would be amazed at the ability of this guy, but it was an external invasion after all. However, Lei Hu revealed something that everyone was unwilling to touch, that was, there were traitors within the Chinese army.

The logistics manager saw that everyone didn't say anything and knew that he had to speak at this time. After all, this happened on the territory of the logistics department. However, it was really heavy to attack the brothers, "Oh... our logistics department is full of old brothers, so how could there be traitors?"

When the head of the security department heard this, he saw everyone else looking over and felt that he was under tremendous pressure. He retorted: "This is not something that anyone can guarantee. When things have come to this point, someone must have sent this person in."

The logistics manager said unhappily: "It may not be our own people who send people in."

"Tsk!" The head of the security department couldn't help but be shocked.

Before he could speak, Lei Hu spoke, "Can you make this more detailed? The gentleman said that once many things are not detailed enough, they look like they are pervasive. As long as they are detailed enough, they will find that something is just a little bit."

Although everyone was angry, they knew that it was not the time to vent their own anger. Everyone started to sort out according to the time.

This is what the people in the General Staff are best at. Of course, in the continuous work, the General Staff also understands one thing in the ruthless blow of reality, that is, plans cannot keep up with changes.

However, this time it is to regress based on what happened, and to regress and change based on reality. Is this much smaller?

According to each report time, according to the distance and distance and foot schedule, plus the testimony of different people, the blackboard takes time as the main axis, and the action trajectories between the various participating departments are densely listed.

Everyone initially felt troublesome, because at first, no matter how they looked, they felt that everyone was suspected. However, as the content became more and more abundant, things began to be a little different. People who were originally suspected began to be excluded.

However, after deducing this, a surprising result finally came. That is, no one was suspicious.

The logistics manager vented his anger. Although he always felt that something was wrong, it was acceptable. At least no one had any problems, it meant that there were no traitors among the old brothers. The old brothers were all good people, which was what the logistics manager was most looking forward to.

However, the head of the Security Department frowned. If no one was suspected, then would this guy appear out of thin air?

No one said anything in the conference room. In fact, everyone wanted to say something, but they were afraid of saying something. At this moment, a young thing broke the silence, "Commander, if there was no problem at this time, would something happen earlier?"

Lei Hu turned his head and saw that it was Yu Qian. Looking at Yu Qian, Lei Hu was in a slightly complicated mood. Although everyone thought that Lei Hu was Huo Chong's apprentice, Lei Hu actually knew that he was just a very outstanding student in many trainings. In other words, he was one of the outstanding students among so many students.

However, because Yu Qian was sold in the year of disaster, Huo Chong bought Yu Qian and his younger brother. So Yu Qian was Huo Chong's disciple, so he really kowtowed. Now Yu Qian is a military staff officer and a graduate of the military academy. This future is really unlimited.

The head of the Security Department asked in confusion: "Staff General Yu, what do you mean?"

Yu Qian explained: "Everyone has sorted out so much, but is this sack just packed here? When I passed by the warehouse, I saw some sacks being shipped in other places and shipped."

The logistics manager slapped his thigh, "Yes! That's the case!"

The head of the Security Department couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The previous confusion between the two sides was at this point. The grain was thought to be installed outside the warehouse and then transported directly into the warehouse. If something happened, it must be the ones inside.

If there were people hidden in the sack long ago and the transport staff didn't know, they would transport them in with them. That would be another matter.

At least it can be proved that it may not be the old brother who was a traitor.
Chapter completed!
