Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

"This... this is impossible. All the accounts have been handled by me personally. There is absolutely no way there will be such a big change!"

Looking at the account book in his hand and the results calculated by Ma Di, Wu Lue's nervous hands were almost sweating. Faced with this situation, he must keep his words until Li Yan comes.

If Li Yan hadn't come and he'd spilled the beans, it would have been completely over. Even if Li Yan lets him go, he will not be spared according to the Shuke liquidation.

They are all mutton on a skewer, and no one can escape.

"So, you mean that I, Ma Su, made a miscalculation?" Ma Su narrowed his eyes, and the murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

The warehouse official in front of him is definitely not innocent. Even if he is not the principal culprit, he is still an accomplice.

Seeing Ma Di's hand resting on his sword, Wu Lue's body began to tremble out of fear. But even so, he still gritted his teeth and said.

"That's not what I meant, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with this account book!"

"brush!"

"ah!!"

There was only the sound of a sword being unsheathed, and the clerk outside the accounting room heard Wu Lue wailing, and then there was no sound.

Soon, Ma Di walked out calmly holding a sword dripping with blood, and the soldiers behind him followed him out holding a lot of bills.

"You guys, go and report the news to Li Yan, and ask him to come in person to explain why this huge amount of grain has disappeared!"

When Li Yan received the news, he was planning the defense of Chencang in the city.

His plan was to dispatch 20,000 Shu troops, with his own headquarters stationed at Chencang City, one stationed on the south bank of the Weishui River, and the other stationed near Longdao. This formed a horned situation, covering his own food routes and guarding against the Wei army at the same time.

As for Lianshui, it was no longer within Li Yan's consideration. The river is too small, so it's okay to block it properly, but it's still a little bit worse if it's really a large-scale battle.

Li Yan is greedy, but his ability is really good. His military level is not as good as that of Cao Zhen and he is also at the level of Guo Huai.

But while he was still planning the frontline battle, the logistics clerk stumbled in and urgently reported to Li Yan that Ma Su was causing trouble in the logistics camp.

"Your Majesty, General Fenwei led his people to block the logistics camp and insisted on checking the account books. As a result, the warehouse official was killed not long after he followed him in!"

"What!!" Li Yan's first reaction was not anger, but panic.

Is this something that has happened to me? Zhuge Liang had already expected it, so he asked Ma Su to mess with me?

But he quickly realized that Zhuge Liang was in Chengdu now, so how could he reach out? What's more, that guy Ma Su just woke up from his injury, how could Zhuge Liang contact him?

It's impossible for Zhuge Liang to guess that he was up to no good before he came to Longyou, and to have done something wrong in advance, right?

"What does Ma Youchang want to do! Killing warehouse officials and forcing his way into the accounting room? Is he crazy?" After realizing that Zhuge Liang could not have done this, Li Yan felt relieved and immediately became furious.

"I have long heard that Ma Di relied on Zhuge Liang's favor and was so lawless that he not only disobeyed military orders but also dared to kill surrendering officials. It seems like this that Zhuge Liang protected him and allowed him to do whatever he wanted!"

"But does he think I'm Zhuge Liang's nepotist? Zhuge Liang will protect him, but I won't!"

"Come on, come with me to the logistics camp. I want to see what Ma Di wants to do!"

If I can't offend Zhuge Liang, can I still offend you, Ma Su? Is it true that my title as General of the Hussars is just a lie?

Li Yan immediately took his personal guards with him and rushed from Chencang to the logistics camp without saying a word.

As soon as he arrived near the logistics camp, Li Yan saw that Ma Di's troops had completely controlled the place. Ma Su's troops did not interfere with the normal transportation and distribution of grain, but they did not allow the officials in the camp to go out at will.

The most important thing is to protect the pile of suspicious account books in the accounting room.

Before Li Yan came, Ma Su also led people to check the grain in the camp to see if there was any sand mixed with it. However, what surprised Ma Su was that Li Yan was not crazy to that extent, and provided sufficient food and fodder for the frontline soldiers and horses.

"Ma Su! Who gave you the right to break into the grain and grass camp without permission, and dare to kill a certain warehouse official! Don't you want to die?"

Li Yan was furious when he saw that each of the account books was tightly protected by Ma Su's tribe, and forced the scribes to copy them. Pointing at Ma Su and roaring,

"Li Shijun is here. I've been waiting for you for a long time." Ma Di held a volume of ledgers, raised his head and said calmly.

"I just made an inspection and found that there were discrepancies in the records in the account books, and a large amount of grain was missing. According to the inspection of the account books, basically all the grain disappeared in Tianshui counties."

"As for Cangguan Wu Lue, he confessed to his crime. Now I have put him to death."

"I wonder if Mr. Li knows about this?"

"Don't talk about those useless things. You, Ma Su, broke into the logistics camp without permission. You have violated military law and are no different from rebelling! Now I have the power to deal with you under military law!" Li Yan did not take Ma Su's words and directly gave Ma Su a Lots of charges.

Anyway, you said that Po Tian violated military orders and should be dealt with according to military law.

As long as he diverts the topic and doesn't mention the account books, Li Yan will have time to deal with the evidence.

Isn't it just a ledger? Li Yan has a thousand ways to smooth out the deficit.

"Okay!" However, what surprised Li Yan was that Ma Di nodded without hesitation.

"You can take down XX now and deal with it under military law."

"Shu Ji, just send someone to copy the account book and send it to Chengdu for the Prime Minister to make a decision!"

Isn't it just death? It's the same as what I'm afraid of.

"Wei!" Shu Ji nodded, sent someone to pick up the account book and left.

"Wait a minute! The account book is a property of the army. An Neng lets you take it away at will!" Li Yan's expression changed and he immediately said angrily.

He really didn't expect that Ma Su would give him a big job as soon as he woke up from his injury.

Based on Li Yan's understanding of Ma Su, this person has always liked to talk or plot against you in private. Therefore, Li Yan did not pay attention to the issue of ledgers. Anyway, the warehouse officials are his own people and you cannot penetrate them.

Who would have thought that Ma Su wouldn't even bother with you, so he just broke in with his men. And it was obvious that Ma Su had planned this for a long time, otherwise he might have found out the problem in such a short time.

That's right, Li Yan hid all the grain and fodder of Tan Mo with the counties of Tianshui for a big event for himself. But now that Ma Su could find out the location so easily, Li Yan began to be unsure.

Isn’t this really Zhuge Liang’s back-up plan?

It’s a little hard to tell!

But first of all, it is certain that this has little to do with Ma Su himself.

"Ma Youchang, what on earth do you want to do? Is this what Prime Minister Zhuge taught you to do? What did your general order do?" Somewhat unsure, Li Yan could only continue to change the topic while thinking about what Ma Su had done. Deep meaning.

"I have violated military law and I accept that I should be executed. Your Majesty can execute you at any time." Ma Su shook his head and said expressionlessly.

"But there is indeed a big problem with Yongzhou's grain supply. This is a big deal. Since Li Shijun has no intention of dealing with it, I can only send someone to Chengdu and leave it to the prime minister to make a decision."

"I believe that the Prime Minister will work tirelessly and do everything personally!"
