The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

Chapter 140

"Report..."

"Reporting to the general, we have searched the entire valley but have not found any trace of the horse thieves or the horses. Also, we just discovered that the fodder prepared for the war horses has disappeared," a small soldier leader came running to report.

"Can this fodder disappear out of thin air? I don't believe it. Keep searching!"

"Yes."

"Wake up those unconscious people for this general!"

"Yes."

About half an incense stick of time later, the soldiers finally woke up one of the unconscious people with cold water.

He was in a daze and couldn't figure out the situation even with so many people in front of him.

The team leader ran up to him and said, "You are here to see General Yan, the Fourth Prince, and Chief Hao, why don't you kneel down?"

Ouyang Yunyao's drug was really strong. The soldier was still a little dizzy after hearing this. He just relied on his physical memory to quickly kneel down and said, "I kowtow to General Yan, the Fourth Prince, and Chief Hao."

"Tell the general and the fourth prince how you fainted?" said Hao Jianbing.

"General Yan, Fourth Prince, and Chief Hao, this is what happened. We were on the observation deck when we heard a sudden thumping sound coming from the distant herd of horses. We checked carefully and found that the horses had fallen to the ground one after another. The captain ordered us to go check. Before we even got to the herd, we heard a whooshing sound, and the horses disappeared. We were so frightened that we had never seen such a scene before. We thought that the horses must have been taken away by God. Then we wanted to go forward and check again, but, we didn't know anything."

"Did you see the horses disappear with your own eyes?"

"Yes, yes, the boys saw the horses fall to the ground, and before they could run to the horses, the fallen horses disappeared in a flash."

Yan Rui'an, who used to be arrogant, was no longer calm. What was going on? More than 10,000 excellent horses just disappeared without a trace. Could it be that the soldier said that the gods took them away? God was going to punish the Beiyue Kingdom. It was impossible. Did they make up this story to deceive me? Did they think I was a three-year-old child? It must be the prince or the King of Qi who was causing trouble. They were very familiar with this place.

After listening to the soldier's description and looking at the dark valley around him, the fourth prince's hair stood on end. Could it really be a mountain god? A monster? "Quick, go, get some people to light more torches."

Although Beiyue State is a good place to produce war horses, they have continuously sent troops to attack Dong Qin and Xi Chu over the years, and have lost a lot of good horses.

Yan Rui'an wanted to take advantage of the internal strife in Western Chu to destroy Ouyang Xiao in one fell swoop and deal a heavy blow to Western Chu. In this way, his father would be able to get the support of all the ministers in the country as he wished. This time, he mobilized most of the excellent war horses of Beiyue State, many of which were top-grade war horses, and assembled all the excellent cavalry. But what should he do now? Without war horses, how can he fight this war? ! His father would be furious if he knew!

"All those who were on duty last night, please interrogate them thoroughly. I don't believe in the nonsense about God taking away the horses. Find out who took away so many horses! Chief Hao, you must interrogate them yourself," Yan Ruian said angrily.

"Yes, General." Hao Jianbing trembled. General Yan might suspect that he was in collusion with someone. Even if he didn't suspect him, he couldn't escape the crime of dereliction of duty. No... No...

"Boom, boom, boom" the soldiers knelt down one after another "General", "General", "General", "There is really no one here!" "You can't kill us, the horse really disappeared on its own..." There were cries of grievance.

"How dare you spread rumors here to confuse the people! We must make them speak out, or they will be beheaded!" Yan Rui'an said, and turned around and rode away in a rage. The fourth prince also hurriedly mounted his horse and ran away, and some personal guards followed him.

After the two big men left, Hao Jianbing said, "Capture them all for me."

……

What Yan Ruian, Bei Jinwei and others didn't expect was that what happened here were just some appetizers, and there were bigger surprises waiting for them later.

When Yan Ruian and Bei Jinwei returned to the barracks with a group of people, a deputy general hurriedly stepped forward and reported, "General, Fourth Prince, it's not good, it's not good."

Yan Ruian got angry when he heard this and was about to kick the deputy general. His eyelids suddenly jumped. Could something have happened again? But thinking that no matter how bad it was, it was better than losing so many war horses, he suppressed his anger and asked, "What's the matter? Why are you making such a fuss?"

"General, food...food...all gone."

"What? What food is gone?"

"Yes... yes... the food in the military camp's granary... is all gone..."

"What!" No matter how good Yan Ruian's attitude was, he was about to collapse and he shouted loudly.

"Investigate this thoroughly for me! Go! Go to the horse farm and call Hao Jianbing over."

"Come on, take me to have a look!" He still couldn't believe his ears.

Yan Ruian and Bei Jinwei followed the deputy general to the granary, and the door of the granary was wide open.

The deputy general trembled and said to Yan Ruian and Bei Jinwei, "General, Fourth Prince, look... there is no more food in these warehouses..."

Yan Ruian and Bei Jinwei looked at each room one by one. There were thirteen rooms in total, all of which were empty. He kicked the deputy general in anger, and the deputy general rolled on the ground. The deputy general climbed up with pain and said, "General..."

"Tell me, what happened? Who discovered it?"

"General, it's the people from the kitchen who reported this. They got up at night to prepare porridge, and found that there was no grain in the small warehouse, so they needed to get some. The small leader who was in charge of the warehouse opened the warehouse... and found that there was no grain... and reported this to me..."

"What about people?"

"The general is calling you, come here," the deputy general shouted. Yan Ruian looked over and saw more than a dozen people standing in the corner, trembling and about to fall down.

A soldier came over tremblingly. "General..."

"Where is the food in this warehouse?"

"No... I don't know. The door lock is fine. They... they have been staying at their posts... and no one has left their posts."

"The door lock was fine? The food disappeared? Who the hell would believe this? Is this a ghost?"

"General, it's true... I don't know what the reason is." The captain was so scared that he couldn't speak clearly. Yan Ruian was so angry that he pulled out a sword from the guard behind him and stabbed the leader of the soldiers to death, scaring everyone present.

Yan Ruian then pointed to several other locked doors and asked, "What are these rooms?"

"Report... Report to the general, those... those are the warehouses where weapons are stored." The adjutant was so scared that he dared not speak, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down from his head.

"Go! Open it and take a look!"

"The key to the warehouse is with... Chief Hao."

"Go, call Hao Jianbing over here!" They have lost their horses and food, and there is no point in fighting this battle. Yan Ruian knew that they had lost their chance of winning this time.

"Bring these guards to me for a thorough interrogation!"

"Yes, General!"
