Chapter 295 Whitewashing

I have to admit that Shen Hao's series of deduction is indeed logically possible. Even if it was just a "possibility", Jiang Cheng realized the seriousness of the problem.

This is much more terrifying than "lost sixty-one carts of grain" before. Even exchanging sixty-one carts of food for such an important piece of information can be regarded as a blood profit.

The Jingxi Army is one of the four front armies of the old Jing Dynasty, and the Frontier Army is a first-line army that is a combination of various frontline armies. The status of both of them is not low in Jingjiu dynasty.

According to Shen Hao's deduction, just talking about Shuangshi Town, the use of the small teleportation circle in Shuangshi Town requires at least a complete set of procedures and identities that can withstand the inspection of the Jingxi Army. This at least has to go through the seal of the governor's office of the Jingxi Army, right?

After arriving at Tanshi, they also had to produce a full set of paperwork and identity documents, as well as a record from the frontier army.

So once Shen Hao's deduction is true, neither the Jingxi Army nor the Southern Frontier Army can get rid of their claws.

"Are you suspecting that the Jingxi Army and the Frontier Army are the mastermind behind the collusion between the evil monks and the barbarians?" Also a little anxious.

"My lord, my subordinates think that although the Jingxi Army and the Southern Frontier Army must have played disgraceful roles, I think it is inappropriate to bring them up separately."

"Why is it inappropriate?"

"It will be very troublesome to coordinate. Only the Jingxi Army and the Southern Frontier Army can maintain a unified pace in this matter, so that the situation can be as calm as it is now."

Jiang Cheng didn't understand, so he stopped and walked back and forth, looking at Shen Hao: "Speak clearly, if you have any thoughts, just say it, don't hide it from me."

"It's my lord. What this subordinate means is that the Jingxi army and the southern frontier army can cooperate so well. In addition to the army and the southern frontier army, there are higher-level figures or forces intervening."

The forces or people who can command the Jingxi Army and the Southern Frontier Army?

Jiang Cheng pointed to Shen Hao and sighed: "You really dare to think!"

Shen Hao was expressionless: "The subordinates are terrified."

Just now Jiang Cheng asked Shen Hao to speak directly, but Shen Hao still left room. The only one who can command the Jingxi Army and the Southern Frontier Army at the same time is the Ministry of War, and the Minister of the Ministry of War is Yang Yansi, General Zhuguo, the first person in the military profession.

Speaking from an emotional point of view, Jiang Cheng didn't want to involve the Ministry of War and General Zhu Guo. He himself was born in the army, so he naturally has a good impression of the Ministry of War. Moreover, Yang Yansi is the object of admiration for all people from the military. The title of God of War in the military is not just for fun. Deserving of gratitude from all members of the military.

In addition, Yang Yansi's loyalty to the old Jing Dynasty was forged through bloody battles and cannot be doubted. And also deeply trusted by His Majesty. Otherwise, with Yang Yansi's high prestige in the army, it would be impossible for him to hold the real position of Minister of the Ministry of War.

After a while, Jiang Chengcai asked again: "Have you told anyone about this idea?"

"Xiaoqi Wang Jian, who is in charge of the Blackwater Project and directly took over the front-line investigation of this incident, also knows."

"Tell him not to spread it. What you need to do now is to secretly improve your deduction, not just guessing and conjecture, you must have tenable evidence to support it, understand?"

"Subordinates understand!"

"Remember, although I won't pressure you in this matter, you must be extremely careful. You must strictly control the number of insiders, both externally and internally. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Yes, my lord, my subordinates will definitely not make mistakes again."

Jiang Cheng sat down on the chair again, and Shen Hao quickly picked up the kettle on the stove next to him to refill Jiang Cheng with water, and then stood beside him to listen to the training.

"Since you have an idea in your heart, you should also have a goal, right? Where are you going to start?"

"Storage bags, my subordinates think the most suitable place to start is the storage bags brought by Ma San and the others. More than 20 storage bags can't be taken out even by thousands of military households. The organization will retrieve it. The storage bag is expensive, and it is a rare magical equipment, and there must be detailed records of its entry and exit. I think we can think of a way from this aspect.

As long as the source of the storage bag can be confirmed, then the following things can be followed by the next step. "

"What about the batch of food? What are you going to do?"

"The subordinates are going to let the account go out of the Blackwater project, and go around a few times to digest it."

Shen Hao knew very well that if his guess was true, it would be too late to recover the grain that Ma San took away. Today is already the fourth day, maybe Ma Sansan and the others have already set off from Tanshi and rushed towards Xiaochuan at this time, and it is too late to stop them. Negative effects can only be minimized.

"Forget it, handle it yourself. Don't let me see the inappropriate note."

"My lord, don't worry."

The matter of grain is not a trivial matter, although the money paid by Ma San far exceeds the value of the 61 carts of grain, but after falling into the hands of the barbarians, it will have a considerable impact on Shen Hao, Jiang Cheng and even the reputation of the Black Flag Camp. Since we can't catch them back, let's talk about the mistakes in the food again and make it part of the "premeditated and controllable bait plan".

As long as you can catch a big enough fish, no one cares how much bait is eaten by the fish while fishing.

It was just the right time to come out from the Yamen of the Zhenfu envoy.

But at this moment, Shen Hao's mood is quite different from when he went in before.

The most troublesome thing is the omission of the batch of food, which is related to the experience of Shen Hao and many people on his line. No one works for the sake of being a errand, and mixing money and power is the fundamental desire of almost everyone wearing this black robe. Stealing a chicken is not enough to lose the rice, and admit it, but it does not affect the cover-up of this omission.

As long as Jiang Cheng doesn't say anything about it, then Shen Hao can make this omission look good with peace of mind, so that it won't have any negative impact. At the same time, you can free up your hands to continue digging into the case.

But this matter involves the army, so it's not easy to start.

When Shen Hao returned to Fengri City that day, he called Wang Jian to the public house, and told him how to change the food omissions. Wang Jian understood, nodded and went to do it.

Afterwards, Shen Hao sat in the office with a dull expression until his next job, holding a pen in his hand but did not write a single word.

The army is different from the local yamen. It is a real violent body. The first thing to pay attention to is unity and prohibition. Even if a "supervising army" is later tricked out by the civil service group, it is not a place where wind and rain can invade at will.

Xuan Qingwei also has people in the army, but they are all marginalized. They can only play the role of supervision but not the power of supervision. Compared with supervising the army, they are far behind.

"To investigate the army, it is too difficult to start from the outside."
