Chapter 34 Food Shortage

Danhan Mountain, Xianbei is single in the court.

Budugen has been gone for more than a month, and there is still no news back, which can't help but make Kuitou a little anxious.

There is a way to fight tiger brothers, father and son soldiers, and now the situation in Xianbei is becoming more and more chaotic, he needs these brothers to help him stabilize his position.

"Jumang, have the people sent to Dingxiang County come back?"

The head asked.

This sentence Mang is the confidant of the leader, the commander of the left ten thousand people, known as the first warrior of Daxianbei, over the years, he has made a lot of contributions to the leader.

Ju Mang took a step forward, bowed and saluted: "Shan Yu, people have been sent out for five days, there should be news back today, the leader of Budugen has galloped across the grassland for several years, and has never met an opponent, so Shan Yu doesn't have to worry." ”

"I hope so!"

The head replied in a low voice, and then remembered the dead wolf mud, and couldn't help but feel a commotion in his heart, which could not be calmed down for a long time.

A rush of footsteps sounded, and a centurion entered the camp, half-kneeling and saying: "Shan Yu, Master Wanfu, people are back!" ”

"It's back!"

Kuitou and Jumang both replied at the same time, and Kuitou was the first to ask: "But Budugen is back?" Why don't you see him come to me? ”

The centurion shook his head and said in a low voice: "Shan Yu, it's Tanma who has returned." ”

"Oh?"

The head was disappointed and said, "Is there any news of Budugen?" ”

The centurion shook his head again and sighed: "Tanma came back and said that the Liangding Pass had been rebuilt and was heavily guarded, so it was impossible to approach it at all. ”

"What ......"

The head looked at the centurion in astonishment, stepped forward with an arrow and grabbed the armor on the centurion's chest with his hand, and roared, "What did you say? Liangding Pass is guarded by Han Chinese? ”

"Hmm!"

The centurion nodded at this time, and said bluntly: "Shan Yu, Liangdingguan is the gateway to Dingxiang County, once Liangdingguan is guarded, the leader of Budugen will have no way out!" ”

The head shouted angrily: "No, this is impossible, Budugen has brought more than 10,000 elite cavalry, as well as two brave warriors Mu Tai and Ba Han, it is impossible for them to be trapped by the Han people." ”

Ju Mang's body trembled, and the worst result had flashed in his mind, that is, Bu Dugen also followed in the footsteps of the wolf mud and was killed by the Han people.

"This is impossible, impossible, Jumang, you immediately gather people and horses to give this single Yu to pacify Xiangjun."

"No!"

In the face of the anger of the leader, Ju Mang first responded, and then said: "Shan Yu, the leader of Xingbu Dugen went to Yanmen and went north from Pingcheng Pass. ”

"Pingcheng Pass?"

The head thought for a while, and said with a smile: "You mean that Budugen went from Dingxiang County to Pingcheng County, Yanmen, it is possible, Budugen has always liked to plunder the Han people, this time ......"

"Quick, let me in, I want to see Shan Yu!"

At this moment, a noisy voice sounded outside the camp tent, interrupting the leader's words, and Ju Mang hurriedly left the camp and shouted: "Who are you, why do you want to collide with Shan Yuting?" ”

I saw that the person who came was disheveled, with a full beard, only two eyes were exposed, and his clothes were ragged, and his whole body was stinky.

"Lord Jumang, it's me, Cresu, the attendant of the leader of Budugen."

"Cresu?"

Ju Mang thought about it carefully, and when he heard that the voice was really him, he hurriedly asked: "Krisu, why are you the only one who came back, Lord Budugen?" ”

Krisu said sadly: "Master Budugen is dead, I want to meet Shan Yu." ”

"This ......"

Jumang's heart was clustered, he didn't expect that Budugen really died in Dingxiang County, and it seemed that the war was about to start again.

Krisu entered the royal court with Jumang, and immediately told him about what happened in Dingxiang County, and he was angry.

"Shan Yu, please avenge my master, Lord Budugen."

Cresu knelt down in front of the head and said, crying bitterly, like his father and mother had died.

The head replied in a deep voice: "Loyal Cresu, Budugen is not wrong about you, you get up first, Ben Danyu will definitely avenge your master, my brother Budugen." ”

Cresu bowed to the head again, and then slowly stood up, with a handful of snot and tears, which made people feel sad.

The head of the head reassured: "Kerisu, from now on, you will be promoted to the commander of a thousand soldiers, and you will rest assured in the old camp of Danhan Mountain. ”

A strange look flashed in Krisu's eyes, and he hurriedly bowed down to thank him, covering up the past, and no one noticed.

……

In September 190 AD, Zhao Feng encountered the first major difficulty that he had crossed over, that is, the food shortage.

The consumption of 5,000 people and horses has exhausted the savings of Dingxiang County, and he has taken out his old foundation, but it is still to no avail, because the people of Dingxiang County are poor and lack of goods, and the people are living a tight life, how can Zhao Feng go to collect food from them with peace of mind.

Lu Xiufu has come to Zhao Feng for the third time to urge food.

"Lord, if we can't raise any more food, I'm afraid that the two thousand Xianbei people who have just surrendered in the army will make trouble, and once the army's morale is unstable, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Zhao Feng is also a head two big, according to the report of the exploration horse, the Danhan Mountain has begun to move, is gathering people and horses, at most half a month will be in the cold and settle the pass, if not before the big war, get the food, when the time comes, will be in a dilemma.

"Junshi, have the people sent to Hanoi and other places returned?"

Lu Xiufu said with a bitter face: "The people have come back, but they have found nothing, and those merchants are unwilling to sell us grain." ”

"A ** businessman!"

Zhao Feng scolded, and then said: "How can a living person be suffocated to death by a fart, so far, I can only go out in person." ”

"What does the Lord want?"

Zhao Feng said in a deep voice: "I personally went to Jizhou, hoping to prepare some food from the Zhen family. ”

Zhen's family?

Lu Xiufu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "The Zhen family is known as the granary of Jizhou, and the grain is piled up, as long as they can help, we will definitely be able to survive this winter." ”

"In addition, the subordinates have already measured the land outside the city, cultivated fertile land, and prepared for autumn planting, but there is a shortage of manpower and it is difficult to form a piece."

Zhao Feng suddenly realized, there is a way to accumulate grain and slow down the king, how can this forget the matter of raising soldiers, sin, sin.

"This is very important, Jun Shi can go to Pengju and ask him to transfer soldiers to assist in farming, and we must sow the seeds before the Xianbei people come to attack, otherwise we will drink the northwest wind again next year."

"No!"

Lu Xiufu responded, and went to the military camp to find Yue Fei in a hurry, knowing that food is the sky, food is the foundation, as a county prince, he does not dare to be sloppy at all.

The next day, Zhao Feng explained the affairs of the county, and then went to Jizhou with Dian Wei.
