"Lord City Lord, we have received too little information from the Han army.
When were these weapons and armors discovered missing?
Who discovered them missing?
Who else was around?
Which general in the army was on duty at that time?
In addition, my subordinates think that we should send people to search the Han army camp in case someone hides weapons and armor and deliberately frames us."
Another official stood up and spoke his mind.
However, he was immediately strongly questioned by another official: "I think you are crazy if you want to search the Han army camp.
Don't blame me for not warning you.
If the trouble ends badly, I think what will you do?"
At this time, someone else said: "I don't know whether it will be bad luck to search the Han army camp, but I know that if we don't recover this batch of ordnance and equipment, we will definitely be in bad luck."
Chi He, who was confused by various ideas and suggestions at first and didn't know what to do, gradually became firm after hearing these words.
He stood up and said, "Let's go to the Han army camp with this city lord."
Led by Chi He, a group of officials, yamen officers and police officers from Wunicheng arrived at the gate of the Han army camp.
They told the gatekeeper the reason and asked to meet Liu Cheng.
The gatekeeper sent someone to report, and soon he Allowed to enter.
"I'm waiting to see the general."
Liu Cheng looked at Chihe and his group and asked: "Chief City Lord, you caught the robbers who stole the weapons and found these weapons."
Chihe gritted his teeth and said, "General, please forgive me.
I've yet to catch the robbers and recover the weapons."
Liu Cheng slapped the table and stared: "Then what are you doing here, General, why don't you go find weapons and catch robbers?"
Chihe said with a smile: "General, the lower officials and others have sent people to search inside and outside the city.
They searched house to house.
They turned everything over and couldn't find this batch of ordnance.
Even this batch of ordnance was not found."
The several caravans that arrived here in the past few days have not been spared, but the general's camp has not been searched.
The official is thinking, what if someone under the general hides this batch of ordnance and wants to find someone to take action privately?
so" "What?"
Liu Cheng was furious, "You suspect that someone under my general is cheating, so what do you want to do?
You want to search my camp?"
Chihe smiled sarcastically, "I have searched all the places that should be searched, but nothing is found.
Only you have not been searched."
Liu Cheng stood up and walked to Chi He, glared at him for a while and said: "Okay, I will let you search.
If you find it, this matter has nothing to do with your city.
I owe you a favor.
If you search No, humph, don’t blame me for turning against the general and refusing to acknowledge anyone coming, take them to search.”
Chi He immediately waved his hand and asked the following police officers and yamen to immediately follow Liu Cheng's men to search the camp.
There was no doubt that the government officials and police officers of the city were disturbed and obstructed in the camp, but they finally searched it through bumps and bumps.
An official returned to the tooth tent and cupped his hands to Chihe and said: "My lord, I have searched everything and found nothing."
Chihe couldn't help it.
He originally thought that he had searched all over the city and found nothing, so it could only be in the Han army camp.
It could only be someone in the Han army guarding and stealing, but he didn't expect it.
Liu Cheng pointed at Chihe and said: "Chihe, you are committing the following crime by searching my general's camp.
Now that you have not been found, I will punish you for your crime.
Come here, give Chihe thirty sticks."

"Military Stick" "Nuo" Several soldiers rushed in, held Chihe down and dragged him outside the tent.
"Ah, ah, ah" screams soon came from outside the tent.
The officials of Muni City who stayed in the tent were all shaken with fear, some kept wiping sweat, and some were so frightened that they became incontinent.
After thirty rounds of beatings with batons, Chihe was dragged in by two soldiers.
When the officials saw that Chihe's back and buttocks were beaten with blood and his fleshy palms were split open, they were all so angry that they did not dare to say a word.
Liu Cheng slapped the table and shouted: "Chihe, this is the end of your offense against this general today, but I would like to remind you that you only have one day.
If you have not recovered this batch of ordnance before midnight tomorrow, I will The general will let you understand that the majesty of the Han Dynasty is sacred and inviolable, you can leave."
Chihe was carried back to the City Lord's Mansion by several government officials.
He was so painful that he lost consciousness after being beaten just now.
At this time, he finally recovered after returning to the City Lord's Mansion.
The severe pain made him sweat profusely and His face turned pale.
An official said sarcastically: "I just said it, it will be bad luck to search the Han army camp without full confidence.
How about you suffer a loss now?"
"Can't you please stop making sarcastic remarks?
If we can't find this batch of ordnance, I'm afraid it won't be just the city lord who will be in trouble, and we won't be able to escape either."
The official stopped talking and retreated.
Chihe lay on the desk and waved his hands: "Okay, stop arguing, let's find a way to recover these ordnance.
You all think about it, is there any place inside and outside the city that has not been searched?"
An official stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Lord City Lord, all the residential areas outside the city have been searched; except for the temple, the residences of colleagues, the city lord's palace, the military camp and the treasury in the city, everything else has been searched."
The officials looked at each other, and one of them stood up and said, "Lord City Lord, let's search the official's home first."
Chihe turned around and looked at it and said: "Let's do this, search the city lord's palace first, and then search other people's mansions after searching the city lord's palace."
The other officials had no complaints now.
The city lord had already said that he wanted to search the city lord's palace, so how could they object to searching their homes?
The government officials started to take action, rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
They spent a whole hour searching the city lord's mansion, but they found nothing.
Instead, they found the bellybands of the city lord's wife and several concubines everywhere.
Next, we began to search the homes of other officials, one after another, digging three feet into the ground, even the latrines.
Until late at night on the third night, with only one hour left before dawn, the police officers searched all possible places, but still found nothing.
Chihe was almost desperate and asked: "Are there any places that I haven't searched yet?"
One of the detectives said: "Mr.
City Lord, only the treasury has not been searched."
Chihe waved his hand and said: "Even though I know that this batch of ordnance cannot be in the treasury, let's search for one and use all the personnel."
At this time, in the tent of the Han army camp outside the city, Chen Qun cupped his hands to Liu Cheng and said: "My lord, Chihe has sent people to search the treasury."
"Oh" Liu Cheng stood up after hearing this and ordered: "Let's go, pick up a group of people and follow this general into the city."
"promise" Liu Cheng led Xu Huang and Chen Qun and headed straight for Muni City with two thousand soldiers and horses.
The gate guards did not dare to neglect and ordered people to open the city gate.
Liu Cheng led his army straight to the treasury.
When they arrived at the treasury, Chi He's chariot had already stopped at the entrance of the treasury.
Liu Cheng dismounted his horse and strode towards the treasury holding a waist knife.
The treasury guards guarding the entrance of the treasury were dispersed by the Han cavalry, and Liu Cheng led People go straight into the treasury.
All the officials in Chihe and Kuni City were already standing in the treasury.
In front of them were neatly stacked armors and weapons, all piled up like a hill.
Liu Cheng shouted: "Chihe" Chi Heru woke up from his dream, turned around and quickly ran over to salute: "General, why are you here?"
"Hmph, how can I not be anxious when I have lost so many ordnances?
Of course I will send someone to keep an eye on the progress of your investigation.

Now tell me, what are these?
Why do our army's ordnance and equipment appear in your treasury?
Are you Shouldn't I give this general a reasonable explanation?"
Liu Cheng held the handle of the knife and walked up to Chi He and shouted murderously.
With a "plop", Chihe knelt down, sweating profusely: "General, general, I don't know why this batch of ordnance appears here."
Liu Cheng sneered: "Haha, you are teasing me.
The stolen ordnance appeared in your treasury, but you told me that you didn't know that I didn't shed tears when you saw the coffin, so I arrested him." stand up"
Several soldiers rushed forward and controlled Chihe.
Chihe loudly begged for mercy: "General, I really don't know.
Please give me a chance to find out the truth of the matter."
Liu Cheng was furious: "You really treat me like a three-year-old child.
It's already obvious.
You're still pretending.
I'll see if you can pretend until someone comes and takes you back to the city lord's palace.
I, general."
The interrogation will take place overnight, and all other officials from Muni City must be present, and no one is allowed to be absent."
Chihe was taken away, and other officials of Muni City were also urged by the soldiers to go to the city lord's mansion.
Only Liu Cheng and his party were left in the treasury.
Liu Cheng looked at the ordnance piled up in the treasury, as well as a batch of grain in sacks, and a large number of wooden boxes facing the wall.
Liu Cheng licked his lips at a group of soldiers and said, "Go and open it and take a look."
The soldiers came forward and used knives and guns to pry open the wooden lids, and the wooden boxes were opened one by one.
The boxes were filled with copper coins, and some of them were even covered with green mold.
"General, it's all copper coins.
There are three hundred boxes in total."
Liu Cheng estimated that this kind of wooden box can hold about 20,000 copper plates, and 300 boxes equals 6 million yuan.
For a town like Muni City with relatively developed commerce and trade, six million dollars is not much.
These dollars are all five baht coins of the Han Dynasty.
Many countries in the Western Regions use the coins of the Han Dynasty as their common currency because they do not have any money of their own.
The ability to mint coins.
Liu Cheng, also known as the soldiers, opened some other wooden boxes.
The soldiers reported that some wooden boxes contained silverware, and some boxes contained gold.
The smallest box contained gems, including jade, agate, pearls, and precious stones.
To name a few.
Chen Qun came over and cupped his hands and said, "Lord, this" Liu Cheng waved his hand expressionlessly: "Move them all."
Chen Qun's face twitched and he murmured in his heart, this master is so powerful that he didn't even leave a penny to the Loulan people:
