Chapter 452: Bitter Cold

"Report, General, the Eastern Army is calling again!"

Above the city tower, it was colder than under the city tower, but General Niu's face was red, and the heat was surging. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Eastern Army did not follow the usual practice several times, and attacked when others did not expect it, which made the Northeast Army tired.

In order to preserve the strength of the Northeast Army, General Niu had to ask the soldiers not to open the door to meet the battle, to recuperate and recuperate, and to be ready to fight to the death with the Eastern Army at any time.

"Pass the order, everyone stay on guard, but don't go out of the city gate, let the Eastern Army call for battle, pacify the heavy soldiers, and stick to the city."

"Yes!"

General Niu looked at the fiery figure on the local chariot and muttered: Could it be that the second prince of the Eastern Kingdom has brought a lot of grain and is actually ready to fight a war of attrition with us.

He squinted at the vague tent.

The distance from which the Eastern Army was stationed was very good, so that the Northeast Army could see it from the city wall, but it was not clear how to see the specifics.

It stands to reason that the Eastern Army brought so many people on the main battlefield of the Northeast Army, and the daily consumption of food was huge, and if it wanted to fight a protracted war, it could not compare to the Northeast Army.

But that's what the eastern army did.

General Niu guessed that it should be spies from the Eastern Kingdom who were ambushing inside the Cloud Kingdom. Knowing that the imperial court did not send food at all, the Eastern Army was ready to consume the food of the Northeast Army.

Because the Northeast Army received an order from the emperor temporarily, it did not prepare too much food at all, and it was only enough for the soldiers to eat for a month at most, which was still in the case of economy.

In other words, according to common sense, these few days are the time when the Northeast Army will run out of food.

General Niu's face condensed, the Eastern Army knew the news that the food we brought was running out, was there a spy in the Northeast Army, or was there a spy in the imperial court?

He glanced at Dong Li Chong, who was flying in red in the distance, and suddenly laughed.

Xindao: No matter how powerful you are the second prince of the Eastern Kingdom, you would never have thought that we would get a huge granary, even if we ate half a year, it would be more than enough. If you save a little, you can definitely eat it for a year.

However, even if the Eastern Army had enough food, it would not be able to stalemate with the Northeast Army for half a year, so in addition to a strong attack, it could only take a detour.

It's a mountainous place, and it's not a good place to storm at all. The Dongguk army could either withdraw or enter only from Jinju.

General Niu thought that the person in Jinju was a virtuous king who was once and now famous throughout the country, and he was unhappy in his heart.

Does that man still think everyone is stupid? I want to see what kind of virtuous you are!

In Jidan City, Yun Niang has been pregnant for three months, and she is first pregnant.

Ran Zhu's hands have recovered, as long as he doesn't lift heavy objects.

Yun Niang was radiant, and in half a month, the old lady and the old lady were subdued, so that the old lady could only see Yun Niang in her eyes, and completely forgot the existence of Yuan Tian. made Yuan Tian a little jealous.

Not to mention Aunt Qian.

The old lady didn't like Aunt Qian, and she was even more disgusted with her temperament. This contrast made Aunt Qian resentful, and she acted as a demon several times, wanting to frame Yun Niang.

It's a pity that Yun Niang was followed by Ran Ya and the four maids Ran Zhu and Ran Mei Ran Sui, so she had no chance to do it at all, so she could only deliberately pretend that her stomach hurt, uncomfortable or something like that. I want to disgust Yun Niang.

After several times, the old lady lost her patience even more, if it weren't for her belly and her own grandson, she would have wanted to drive people out. But even if she didn't get out, Aunt Qian was basically a transparent person in the house, which made her heart even more distorted.

Unexpectedly, the child in her belly was born prematurely.

Originally, there was a saying that seven lives and eight are not alive. The child conceived by Aunt Qian was not seven months old, plus the hurry, as well as her own various demons, decisively had a difficult birth.

If it weren't for Ran Zhu's silver needle in his hand to let the child be born smoothly, it would definitely be one corpse and two corpses.

But even if he is born, the child is still a weak child, and he has to take medicine for the rest of his life to live. As for Aunt Qian, she was injured, and it is impossible to have children in the future.

Because she gave birth to a daughter and caused serious damage to her body, Aunt Qian hated her daughter.

If the maid hadn't found out earlier, the child would have died in the cradle.

Since then, the people of the Yuan family no longer dare to let Aunt Qian take the child, and they are even more disgusted with her.

"Little girl, are you good today?" Yun Niang caressed her stomach and shook the cradle. The child in the cradle was wrapped in a thick quilt, revealing only a small face the size of half a palm.

The little face was red, and there were white scabs stuck to it. Her lips were a somewhat transparent purple, and she pursed them gently, and her brows were slightly furrowed, as if she was very uncomfortable.

She seemed to be able to hear Yun Niang's words, and she didn't have many bright eyes looking at Yun Niang's face, looking stubbornly, not crying or laughing.

Yun Niang looked at the child worriedly, and she had some resentment towards Aunt Qian in her heart.

Anyway, the child is innocent. actually got angry at the child, is this a mother?

Originally, the little obedient body was poor, but it was even worse when Aunt Qian made it like this.

Before I learned how to breastfeed, I had to take medicine, and I really suffered.

Yun Niang looked at the child in the cradle with pity, the child cried a few times like a cat since he was born, and he didn't cry again, even if he was hungry and cold, he frowned, didn't cry or make trouble, which made people feel distressed.

"Yun Niang, you have to pay attention to your body, you can't watch it for a long time."

It was the old lady who came in, and when she entered the door, she brought in some cold wind. She stood outside the curtain for a moment, waiting for her body to warm up before going inside.

"Mother, I know." Yun Niang responded, but her eyes did not leave the child's body.

Was her child so small when she was born, and not seeing Jiajia grow up with her own eyes was a regret in her life.

The old lady only said one word, and then said no more.

After getting along for half a month, she also knew that her daughter-in-law was a kind-hearted person, and many people in the city called her a living bodhisattva. When I heard about the epidemic, I came and helped many people. The food that most people eat now, she looks at it in private, is all from Yun Niang.

She guessed that behind this should be the shadow of Master Yalun, and the obedient girl should also be involved.

The old lady did not like this frail granddaughter very much. The child was going to die when he saw it. She is old and doesn't want to put her feelings on a child who is about to die, so she generally avoids seeing this granddaughter.

But she didn't stop Yun Niang from taking care of the child, after all, she was her granddaughter, and if she could live, she wouldn't want her to die.

"Mother, how's it going outside? Are there many people who freeze to death? Yun Niang pressed the child's quilt and stood up to talk to the old lady.

In December, the weather suddenly became colder, and the temperature plummeted, especially after a few rains, the weather became colder and colder day by day, and people in Jidan City had already frozen to death.

Due to natural disasters, there is almost nothing left in the people's homes, but there are still warm clothes and quilts.

However, the weather in previous years was not as cold as this year, and these thin warm clothes were not enough to withstand the severe cold.

Not to mention the drought this year, there is basically nothing left of the trees outside, and it is not enough to pick up firewood. (To be continued.) )
