Chapter 126: Opening the Warehouse and Releasing Grain
Li Xiaoyu was lying on the bed, she had never felt so wronged, she felt that she was stupid this time, just find a chance to leave, why do you have to think about helping Shen Zhong? Standing hanging Weng Cheng, looking at Taiyuan City from such a distance, Taiyuan City is not something that can be taken by storming at all, so Li Xiaoyu and Yin Ji thought that this fire pulled out the camp and burned it, and the defenders of Taiyuan City saw that the camp was robbed, so they naturally came out of the city and prepared to find an opportunity to rob the camp.

This is like Shen Zhong saw that Taiyuan City was on fire, and couldn't help but lead people to attack Taiyuan City, Li Ge saw the fire under Hanging Weng Mountain, and naturally couldn't help but go out of the city to encircle and suppress Shen Zhong's remnants, this is like being trapped in the city for a long time, and it has been suppressed, and suddenly one day people let people out, and this group of tigers naturally can't help but eat people.
But a tiger is a tiger after all, and maybe a tiger is sometimes cunning, and a bloodthirsty tiger may not be so clever, and a crazy tiger doesn't think so much. If Li Ge thought about it carefully, maybe he wouldn't have fallen into Shen Zhong's ambush, to be reasonable, if Li Ge hadn't encountered the uprising of the poor people in the city, I'm afraid Li Ge wouldn't have been so anxious.
After the bloody suppression of the poor people in Taiyuan City, they were already poor and lacking horses, and naturally they could not defeat the imperial army that had been ambushed long ago, Li Ge was escorted to Taiyuan City, and now the defender of the city is Li Wenbo of Taiyuan City, Li Wenbo is fifty or sixty years old, a pedantic old scholar, standing on the city tower.
Shen Zhong came to Taiyuan City with a large army, and the old Mr. Li Wenbo began to scold, standing under the city, Shen Zhong couldn't hear what he was scolding at all, but Li Wenbo's old man was getting more and more energetic, saliva was flying, and the whole popularity was trembling.
Di Zifu stood below and scolded, "Old immortal, what are you muttering up there, louder, shout louder, otherwise I really can't hear what you're chanting like a bastard!" Di Zifu was young and strong, and his voice was loud, and he shouted from afar, and the people in the city heard it clearly.
Although Li Wenbo is a crane hair and a childish face, he is also an old man, he has always had a bad heart, Di Zifu scolded people, and he scolded everything, "Such a knowledgeable and elegant old man was scolded by him for treason and bandits, and all kinds of swear words were frequent, and even the people who followed Shen Zhong were a little confused, Di Zifu was such an honest man, he actually scolded people, and his mouth was so broken."
Shen Zhong saw that the old man was only concerned with Di Zifu scolding under the city, he immediately signaled the archer to draw the bow and shoot arrows, then Li Wenbo was not a martial artist, where had he seen this kind of formation, the arrows were pierced on the city tower and the corner tower, making a clanging sound, which simply frightened Li Wenbo, and suddenly fell on the city tower.
"Mouthed better than anyone else, dare to stand up and speak? Come on, siege the city! The army swung up, Li Ge seemed to be driven to the front, so that the soldiers of Taiyuan City were afraid, and the wood kept hitting the city gate, and the city gate broke open under the continuous impact, and the entire gate fell.
"Go in, disarm and surrender and don't kill those who resist." Shen Zhong roared, and Di Zifu took the lead, galloping into the city, there was no main general in the city, morale was low, Di Zifu entered the city everywhere he went, and everyone who saw it disarmed and surrendered, kneeling on the ground.
Shen Zhong then arrived, strolling through the city, at a glance, at the corner of the street in the city, there were many corpses roughly rolled up with mats, most of these corpses were skinny, their faces were black, and the more they walked into the city, the fewer the corpses.
Shen Zhong knew that most of these people were poor people living in the outer city, and during the four-month siege of the city, their homes were naturally starved to death, and they were naturally starved to death if they had no food in stock. Di Zifu tied up a group of officials in the city in front of Shen Zhong, and the group of people had different expressions, while Shen Zhong put on a very indifferent look.
"Lord Wang, what should I do with these people." Di Zifu and a group of guards brought the captives to Shen Zhong, as if they would kill these people as long as Shen Zhong said a word!
"So many people starved to death, why didn't they open a warehouse to release grain?" Shen Zhong tugged at Li Wenbo's collar, and the old man's beard was also pulled off, and there was a lot of blood, and his chin began to ooze blood.
"The grain in the granary can last for a year for the soldiers, and if these untouchables are added, it is estimated that they will have to run out of food for three months." The white-haired Li Wenbo frowned and replied.
Shen Zhong really didn't know how to respond, it was true that if the grain in the granary was distributed to these people, it would definitely not last four months.
Just as he was thinking about how to deal with these prisoners, there were fluttering words behind him: "I think these people are still in prison first, how hungry the people in the city are, why don't you hurry up and open the warehouse to release grain!" ”
Shen Zhong looked back at Li Xiaoyu, Li Xiaoyu's face was covered with a white veil, obviously not swollen yet.
Di Zifu said embarrassedly, "Lord Wang, I just went to the granary to look, and there is really not a grain of grain in it." ”
"What?" Shen Zhong was puzzled, it stands to reason that this siege has been less than five months, how could the granary of the official government be gone?
As if knowing that Shen Zhong was puzzled, the young general beside Di Zifu added, "Lord Wang, that Li Wenbo old thief, knowing that he could not defend the city, burned all the grain and grass stored in the city. ”
"This old scholar is so ruthless, we still have surplus food, but I'm afraid that the people in this city will starve to death." Di Zifu gritted his teeth and scolded.
"Last year's situation was good, the landlord's family still has surplus grain, and when you see which house is built well, you can just come to the door to collect grain, I don't believe they have no food at home!" After Li Xiaoyu finished speaking, he pointed to Li Wenbo, who was tied to the side.
"The grain he burned, you go to their house to search for it first, I don't believe that he is so noble, and there is no surplus food at his own house?" Li Xiaoyu came to Shen Zhong's side as he spoke, Shen Zhong wanted to talk to him, but Li Xiaoyu didn't give face at all, and said coldly, "This time, the two of us don't owe each other." ”
Shen Zhong naturally knew what she meant, he sold her a favor before leaving, and Li Xiaoyu came to repay the favor.
"What the hell do you think? This battle is a big victory, and when you go back, you will definitely be the crown princess! Shen Zhong grabbed her, but she shook it violently, "Hehe, I'm not rare!" ”
As Li Xiaoyu expected, Li Wenbo burned the grain and grass in the granary of the government, but the grain in his house was full of three warehouses, and all the families in the city had grain storage, and when the people borrowed grain from them, they were iron roosters who did not pluck their feathers, and when Shen Zhong came to the door with soldiers to grab their grain, they didn't dare to say a word, and sent the grain to the granary strangely, and the granary of the county government was full in one afternoon, and Shen Zhong ordered the first time to open the warehouse and release the grain.
