Chapter 1134: Settlement of Accounts
The military advisor was dumbfounded when he heard this: "What should we do then?"
Marshal Yuan shook his head and said with a sad face: "Anyway, sending a letter to the emperor of Dayou Kingdom and asking him to send food here is not feasible. We have to find a new way."
"Find a new way?" The military advisor rubbed his chin and pondered.
Suddenly, he slapped his thigh hard, jumped up and shouted loudly...
"Oh, I've got a good idea."
His shout scared the people present.
Marshal Yuan said dissatisfiedly...
"Military Advisor, just tell me whatever you think. Why are you shouting so loudly? Who are you trying to scare to death?"
The military advisor reached out and grabbed the back of his head, bent over, and smiled embarrassedly: "Sorry, I'm too excited, hahaha..."
Marshal Yuan: "Tell me, what ideas do you have?"
Military Advisor: "It's like this. We can send a letter to the Kingdom of Da Yao in the name of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's confidants, and ask them to help us buy food. In this way, the Emperor doesn't know, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know either, and we still get to buy food. Why not do it?"
As the crown prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have many followers. It would be best to ask them to help buy food.
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up and they all thought that the military advisor's idea was simply great.
Marshal Yuan clapped his hands and said, "Okay, it's settled."
Immediately afterwards, the military advisor wrote a letter and sent it to the Dayao Kingdom, giving it to the Crown Prince's confidant.
What's more, as the crown prince, he had many followers. In less than a day, he bought all the food and sent it out of the borders of Dayao.
At this time, the people sent by Marshal Yuan had already been waiting there. At dusk, they transported the food back to the military camp.
Because the soldiers had been hungry for a day and were afraid of running out of food in the future, the morale in the barracks was unstable.
However, when everyone heard that the food had been bought back, they cheered...
"Yeah! That's great, we don't have to go hungry anymore."
"Yes, we finally don't have to starve to death anymore."
The soldiers came forward enthusiastically and helped to carry the food.
The Crown Prince heard the noise, came out and looked, his face full of shock. He asked the soldier next to him: "Huh? Didn't Marshal Yuan say that he couldn't buy food? He still asked me to buy food for him. Where did all that food come from?"
The soldier who served him was young, and no one had warned him of his plans, so he just said...
"Reporting to His Royal Highness, I just learned about this as well. It is said that this grain was shipped from the Kingdom of Dayao."
The Crown Prince was shocked when he heard this. Dayou Kingdom, isn't that his country? Without his permission, who could transport so much grain out?
He asked in shock: "What happened? Who helped them transport the food out?"
Soldier: "Isn't it you, His Royal Highness?"
The Crown Prince was surprised and asked, "My Lord? You said that I sent people to transport this food from Dayao?"
The soldier nodded and said as a matter of course: "Yes, that's what they all said. If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we would have starved to death."
"Your Highness, you are truly our benefactor. You have saved us time and time again. Especially this time, even though you were injured, you still helped us regardless of past grudges. We will never forget this great kindness."
After hearing what the soldier said, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already furious and hurried to find Marshal Yuan to settle the score.
