The commanders of the army in various places have great power in wartime, but in non-wartime, their power is subject to considerable restrictions.

However, the use of military expenditure is one of the unrestricted powers of the commander.

Use military expenses and arrange for quarantine officials to purchase some small batches of things that the army needs but cannot provide.

Or you can give small contributions to soldiers who have excellent training performance and collective rewards, or hold routine banquets, etc., which can all be used to make use of military spending.

Guo Peng stipulated that the Wei army could have a sumptuous public expenses for collective food and drink every half a month, which was also under the charge of the army's commander.

The amount of military expenditure in this part is not small. Yu Jin held it in his hand and felt that he was tough when speaking. No matter how he did it, he felt that he had money in his hand and could do things.

But now, there is something wrong with the support part, and Yu Jin feels that something is not good.

To be honest, Yu Jin himself also vaguely knew that some military officers were not clean.

They like to use inferior products as good products, or probably buy some other cheap things instead of what they originally wanted to buy, make profits from it, and gain some benefits that they should not have obtained.

He vaguely knew it, but he didn't delve into it.

First, he has less time to busy military affairs, and second, he also thinks this is not a big problem.

The amount of military expenditure is not large each time. Yu Jin deliberately controls the amount and frequency of military expenditure, so that he can slightly control these people who are not clean.

The most important thing is that the emperor never inquired or investigated about this part of military expenditure, similar to pocket money. He never felt that the military expenditure would involve any serious issues.

But when the problem arose, Yu Jin began to panic.

What he didn't expect was that a small amount of money could be made of. Even if the number was small, as long as the number was enough, these guys could still extract a lot of black money from military expenses.

Once these black money were found, the amount was quite scary.

Anyway, Yu Jin never thought that he could get rid of so much money.

When the people from the investigation team came to Yu Jin to assist in the investigation, Yu Jin's subordinates were worried about him, because so much money was leaked out, the problem was really big, if the emperor had to pursue it.

"General Yu doesn't know anything about these things, right?"

Qiu Ji, the head of the Northeast Corps investigation team, sat against Yu Jin, and pushed the counted corruption information of the military officers to Yu Jin.

Yu Jin looked at the information and his face became worse and worse.

"I really don't know the specific situation."

Sighing, Yu Jin put the information back on the table.

“What’s the specific situation?”

Qiu Ji keenly captured some questions in Yu Jin's words: "What is the specific situation? Does General Yu know that there are military officers who are embezzling?"

I know that this matter is inseparable from me no matter what. Instead of hiding it, it is better to tell the truth.

So Yu Jin was very frank.

"I vaguely realized that some military officers were not clean, so I warned them, but I didn't expect that the problem was so serious."

"Since you know, why don't you report it? Why don't you ask for an investigation on your own initiative?"

Qiu Ji's tone was serious and did not treat him differently because Yu Jin was a powerful imperial general.

Yu Jin shook his head.

"Military affairs are busy, and I don't have much energy to take into account these things. Secondly, Your Majesty has never held the army accountable for this military expenditure. This military expenditure is really not very important in the entire military expenditure, so I have never taken it seriously..."

"General Yu knew but did not report it, and missed the opportunity to investigate, so that we failed to stop these corrupt people from continuing to greed and harming the interests of the court. In addition, the money was mainly responsible for General Yu. Now that there is a problem, General Yu is afraid that he cannot shirk responsibility, right?"

Qiu Ji said this, and he felt a little nervous.

He was just an insignificant little official, and he could sit face to face with a big man like Yu Jin because he had the authorization of the emperor, and even interrogate him.

If it were normal, I would have to take a chance even when I saw him.

Yu Jin was also one of the five tiger generals of the Empire and one of the five founding generals who made the greatest contribution. Some things may not be considered a matter for Jin.

As long as this matter proves that Yu Jin did not directly participate in corruption, Yu Jin will be scolded at most, and at most he will be fined some money.

As long as the emperor does not take it seriously, he can even make things small, because this matter itself is a big or small thing.

For the military general Yu Jin, the biggest problem is the problem. It is possible to retreat to the second line of management of military expenditure.

But before leaving, Cheng Yu secretly instructed Qiu Ji that if he could, he would try his best to make Yu Jin think he was guilty, and the crime was not small.

It is best to take Yu Jin from the barracks to their offices for further investigation and questioning, and then release the person and submit it to Your Majesty.

It doesn’t matter what others think, the key is to make Yu Jin think that this matter is very serious.

At that time, Qiu Ji felt that no matter how he investigated this matter, it probably wouldn't involve Yu Jin, so why did he do this?

"Don't ask too much, just do as you do. You should know that some things are not things in your opinion, but in the eyes of those who are in high positions, they are deadly things. Sometimes the status is too high and the power is too heavy, it is not a good thing. As the saying goes, the higher you climb, the worse you fall."

At that moment, Cheng Yu's eyes were filled with the smell of vicissitudes.

Qiu Ji can probably understand why Cheng Yu is so touched by such a thing.

Because Cheng Yu himself had fallen from a high level and almost fell to pieces and was doomed.

From a true power of Shangshu Ling who is below one person and above ten thousand people, to an empty shell like a vase, from holding the weight of power to the mascot, everything Cheng Yu once had was floating like smoke in a blink of an eye.

As for how Cheng Yu was reborn from the ashes and how he regained such great power that all the civil and military officials in the court changed their faces when they talked about him, Qiu Ji was not clear about the inside story.

The transfer from the Shangshu Ling to the Sili School Captain seems to be demoted, but once the powerful position of the Sili School Captain is trusted by the emperor, it will be enough to suppress all officials.

Cheng Yu achieved a gorgeous turn.

As for what the price he paid, Qiu Ji didn't know, but Cheng Yu really made a gorgeous turn.

But not everyone can do this, even if it costs a little.

Mi Zhu, Han Hao, Tian Feng, Cao Ren.

These are all very powerful people who were very powerful at the beginning of their founding. Now they are basically far away from the center of power. Some are even just civilians with no power, which is very miserable.

Now looking at Yu Jin again, Qiu Ji felt that Cheng Yu was right.

It was obviously not a big deal, but for Qiu Ji, Yu Jin looked so serious that he could safely expose something by proactively proclaiming a mistake.

Perhaps for those who are in high positions, it is not important to make contributions or not. What is important is not to make mistakes.

Not making mistakes is more important to them than anything else. This may be the wisdom of a big shot?

But, will these guys show such expressions when facing small officials and small figures like themselves?

I saw Yu Jin thinking for a moment, then closed his eyes and sighed slightly.

“What should I do?”

Yu Jin did not resist, but obediently handed over the initiative.

Qiu Ji felt a stern, pursed his lips, and pinched his fist.

"Please follow me to the temporary office. Let's make a record and explain the matter first and second. This record will be presented directly to Your Majesty. Your Majesty will make a decision on General Yu's affairs."

Yu Jin nodded slightly.

"I will explain military affairs and I will follow you."

"good."

After the matter was finished, Yu Jin called out the important deputy general Wei Yan.

Guo Peng likes Wei Yan very much.

Earlier, Wei Yan was placed in the Central Army. When he was in the Northern Expedition of the Xianbei, Wei Yan was able to show off his limelight, leading the heavy cavalry to make great achievements, and successfully join the second-tier general group.

It can be said that Wei Yan is a well-known core figure among the young generals under the group of founding generals of the Wei army.

Many people believe that after several years, when the founding generals fell into decline, Wei Yan was the leader of the Wei army at that time.

Perhaps everyone will listen to General Wei’s story in the future.

It seems that in order to confirm people's view of Wei Yan, Guo Peng sent Wei Yan to Yu Jin after the Northern Expedition of the Xianbei.

He asked Wei Yan to follow Yu Jin, implement the strategy of piercing the siege and sweeping the caves, constantly participate in the battle, and constantly accumulate war experience.

And he also consciously gave Yu Jin more opportunity to command the army independently, and such opportunities were rare.

Yu Jin also understood that Guo Peng was cultivating young generals. He did not reject such things. He would also give some advice on Wei Yan when he had time. He would get along better with Wei Yan.

Wei Yan had no friends in the Guards, but he got along well with Yu Jin in the Northeast Corps. He respected Yu Jin very much and praised his military use. He especially admired Yu Jin for taking the risk to lead his army to raid the Fuyu King City.

So when Wei Yan heard that Yu Jin was going to be taken away for investigation, he was very surprised and subconsciously stopped him.

"How could General Yu be such a person? This... must have been something wrong!"

Wei Yan was a little excited: "There must be misunderstandings here, there must be misunderstandings, and we should continue to investigate!"

Yu Jin shook his head and stopped Wei Yan's impulse.

"I was taken away because of corruption, but explained the cause and effect of the matter, and then they would report this matter to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will be a sage."

After hearing this, Wei Yan's expression slowed down.

"I see."

He looked at Qiu Ji and others again, and his face was unhappy.

"General, let's go, as long as I'm here, the army will be in chaos."

"That's natural. I'll go and I'll come."

Yu Jin greeted him and left the barracks with Qiu Ji and others.

Yu Jin didn't know what he would face, but he knew very well that he would hand over all dominance at this time, just listen to the orders and don't have any resistance.
